"Ah? What should we do if we can’t recruit anyone? If we keep failing to find candidates, the board will surely be dissatisfied with you, maybe..." The assistant glanced at the man sitting at the head, his expression showing hesitation.

"Are you trying to say that maybe they’ll push me out of this position?" Xu Ke paused what he was doing, looked up at his assistant, and with a confident smile said, "Since I made this decision, it means I have a way to solve it. I won’t let you lose your job, so you don’t need to worry about anything else. Just focus on doing your job well."

"By the way, make me a cup of coffee." Xu Ke commanded and then lowered his head again.

Three days quickly passed. Logically, for a big company like the Xu Corporation, when recruitment information is released, it might not attract people in droves, but it surely shouldn’t be as deserted as it was. However, the reality was just that; after three days, there wasn’t a single applicant’s call. The entire company’s eyes were on Xu Ke, wanting to see how he planned to resolve this.

But from Xu Ke to his assistant, the two of them worked as usual every day, appearing no different from before, making it impossible to guess his next plan.

In a slightly dim room, clouds of smoke filled the air.

"What do you think he’s up to? It’s been three days, and he hasn’t done anything. Has he already given up completely?" A slightly hoarse voice rang out inside the room, unpleasant like sandpaper scraping against wood.

"A kid who’s still wet behind the ears; even if he’s plotting some grand move behind the scenes, how powerful could it possibly be? Sun Wukong is destined not to escape Buddha’s Five-Finger Mountain." In another corner of the room, a man extinguished his cigarette, and the glowing embers dissipated into the room.

"Right. By the way, did you hear the news? A few days ago, wasn’t Old Hu’s daughter sent to a mental hospital? I just got the news yesterday that old Hu had a stroke. Now there’s only a pregnant woman left at home to hold things together. I reckon it must be his precious daughter who stressed him into illness. The kids you bring into this world are all liabilities!" the hoarse voice said with a tone of lament.
