Chapter 269: Are You Questioning Me as My Wife? (3)

“Of course I know,” Chen Ke said with a smile. He seemed to have guessed her intentions as well. Of course it could not just be for a meal.

But since Lu Manman could speak well, he found it comfortable to listen on.

“Manager Yang has been under a lot of pressure recently, and there hasn’t been any progress. Please be magnanimous, Director Chen.”

“Director Lu, you don’t know about this, but it’s not that I don’t want to help. I’ve been on good terms with your Lu Firm all year, and I’ve treated it like my brother. It’s just that our CEO is so stubborn. I’ve told him about this many times, and the last time, he threw a tantrum at me. After all, I don’t dare to offend someone I’m working for, so I hope Director Lu is considerate of my difficulties,” Chen Ke said helplessly.

“Of course,” Lu Manman said as she got Zhang Cui to take out an envelope.

Chen Ke looked at the envelope and smiled.

“This is just a token of my appreciation. Please accept it.”

“No, no.” Chen Ke shook his head.

“Take it.” Lu Manman deliberately pushed it to him. “I know Director Chen’s difficulties, and I won’t make you do anything that’s inconvenient for you.”

Chen Ke seemed to hesitate for a while before accepting it. “In that case, I won’t reject it. You’re making me out to be an outsider.”

“We’re not outsiders,” Lu Manman said as she smiled. “I’ll ask you something. As for the rest of the work, our Lu Firm will do it ourselves.”

“Speak your mind.” Chen Ke seemed very generous.

“Is it CEO Yu’s will that we don’t build the base station, or does he have something to worry about?” Lu Manman asked.

Her words hit the nail on the head.

Chen Ke seemed to be in a daze for a while before scrutinizing her again.

She still looked young, even though she was so mature and reliable.

“Director Lu, you’re smarter than I thought,” Chen Ke said directly.

Lu Manman smiled, appearing very innocent. “I just guessed it casually. I thought that since the other factories had no qualms about it, why would CEO Yu have such qualms? Everyone knows now that the construction of the base station isn’t very harmful to the human body, and that was only confirmed through scientific research. Moreover, the equipment we use is also strictly in accordance with the country’s inspection criteria. I heard from Manager Yang that CEO Yu is very concerned about the employees sleeping after using the Internet. Regarding this point, I feel that I still have to remind Director Chen. This is actually a little against the labor contract law. Employees have the right to enjoy and receive all sorts of public treatment and basic needs in life. Meanwhile, the need for the Internet has integrated into daily life and should naturally belong to the employees. If an employee wants to sue your factory, there’s a chance of winning.”

She spoke casually and gently.

Chen Ke had been in the business industry for many years, and he knew what Lu Manman meant. Lu Manman, who seemed like a young woman, was actually reminding him that it was good for everyone to change their minds at times. Otherwise, if they were to really go against each other, Lu Firm would have a chance of winning.

“I’ve considered Director Lu’s reminder, but Director Yu does have his difficulties,” Chen Ke said helplessly.

“Why don’t you say it, Director Chen? We can discuss it together.”

“The Sunshine Electronic Factory is a factory that was imported from Wen City. The factory population has already grown to more than eight thousand people and can be considered one of the bigger factories in Wen City. It has brought considerable economic benefits to Wen City. Of course, the gains from our factory are indeed increasing very quickly. And Director Lu, you know that foreign factories like ours are all supported by the government, and the land was obtained through the government’s planning. Now that we’ve finally managed to develop the factory, we won’t be able to survive if we offend the government’s related department.”
