Before long, the assistant went over to Vice Chairman Qin with his phone.
"Don't you think your Chairman is starting to get muddle-headed and isn't decisive enough?" Asked Vice Chairman Qin nonchalantly as he fiddled with the phone in his hand and looked at Assistant Wang.
The assistant lowered his head slightly. He remained silent and did not reply to Vice Chairman Qin.
Vice Chairman Qin smiled and continued. "Old Mr. Wang is getting old. He won't be able to stay in his position for long."
"At least he's still the Chairman," said the assistant in the end.
"People need to make plans for themselves, don't you think?" said Vice Chairman Qin airily as though he did not hear Assistant Wang's words.
The assistant clenched his fists. How could he not understand the underlying meaning behind Vice Chairman Qin's words? He paused before he nodded and said, "You're right."
Vice Chairman Qin raised his brow slightly. "I have always admired your ability to handle matters."
"Thank you for the compliment, Vice Chairman Qin." Assistant Wang smiled politely.
"Oh yes. That herb farmer... is called Mi Wei, right? How did you meet him?" Vice Chairman Qin changed the topic. He knew that Assistant Wang had found Mi Wei.
"I met him online. The herb base needed a master, so he applied for the job," said the assistant honestly.
Vice Chairman Qin nodded with an indecipherable look in his eyes. "Do you know where his hometown is?"
The assistant shook his head. "I'm not sure. I didn't ask."
Vice Chairman Qin glanced at the assistant carefully and did not probe further. Instead, he said, "Try to persuade your Chairman to call the herb farmer back as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be hard to explain to the overseas side."
He paused before he added. "Mr. Tesse is not someone we can afford to offend. Old Mr. Wang might not understand, but you have to remind him from time to time."
Assistant Wang lowered his head and nodded without saying a word.
After Vice President Qin made sure Assistant Wang left, he turned around and called the overseas side, telling them to be patient and not be impatient.

Monday.
Huo Yao went to the classroom to find that the seat next to her was empty. Yuan Xi was nowhere to be seen.
She was a little surprised, so she sent her a text to ask about it. However, she did not get a reply the entire morning.
Huo Yao called Yuan Xi in the afternoon.
The phone rang for a long time before it was connected. The person who spoke was not Yuan Xi, but her mother.
"Little Xi has been resting at home with a bad cold for the past two days, so she didn't go to school." It wasn't hard to hear a trace of anxiety in Mother Yuan's voice.
Huo Yao held her phone and recalled that Yuan Xi had texted her on Saturday. She had said that she was at school, so she asked her. "Auntie, did Yuan Xi stay at home on Saturday?"
Mother Yuan looked at her daughter who was sleeping soundly on the bed and said softly, "Yes, she hasn't left the house since she came back on Friday. However, I can see that her mental state is not good. Child, you are my daughter's friend. Did something happen to her at school?"
Not in a good mental state?
During this period of time, the child seemed to be quite normal.
Huo Yao contemplated before she replied. "Nope. She's pretty hardworking in school. I didn't hear anything from her."
When Mother Yuan heard this, she sighed. "Maybe I'm overthinking it. Thank you for calling to show concern for our Lil 'Xi. When she wakes up, I'll ask her to send you a message."
Huo Yao nodded.
