Super God-Level Top Student
Chapter 243: Don't Push Me_4
If his superiors could withstand any pressure to execute the set strategy, Lv Bei was confident that as long as he ensured the completion of his tasks, no matter whom he offended, he would remain unharmed. Then, when making choices similar to multiple-choice questions, he would not hesitate nor act foolishly.
Qiao Ze's voice was not loud, but to the two people across the office, these words indeed sounded thunderous.
Especially for Director Du, who showed an embarrassed expression on his face.
Then, he subconsciously glanced at Lv Bei beside him.
Lv Bei, meanwhile, kept his gaze forward, controlling his expression without any change. At least, it was impossible to glean his inner thoughts at that moment.
"That's it for today, I have work to do," waved Qiao Ze.
"Okay, then I'll take my leave first," Director Du immediately replied.
It was awkward to stay any longer; better to leave quickly.
...
The two silently exited the building and walked into the courtyard when Director Du suddenly expressed a sentiment, "When I think about it carefully, it seems you are right. If last time I had not been so slick and taken the initiative to shoulder the responsibility for you, you wouldn't have made such a big blunder this time, right?"
Lv Bei slightly shook his head, saying with a lost look, "I didn't think that much, but now that I think about it, perhaps it's that my own character isn't firm enough?"
Director Du sighed, "Haha, I suddenly recall something my former boss once said at the dinner table. He said that one shouldn't be too clever, especially not to show off small tricks in front of others, otherwise, one's life would just be so. At the time, I just felt contemptuous, thinking the boss had truly aged, becoming long-winded. He was already retired, at a table full of people, who would really listen to him? Now I think about it, what he said wasn't meant for others, but for me."
Lv Bei did not respond to this; he was not in a position to.
But Director Du apparently did not expect Lv Bei to reply and continued to ramble, "So, there's indeed a predestiny in every action. Professor Qiao, he just sees things too clearly and cannot tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes. Dealing with him, if you don't want a fallout, you just have to go along with him.
But what differentiates him is that during the game of strategy, he can clearly grasp where the other party's bottom line lies, and he never tries to probe the other party's limits. And every time he makes a choice or resists, it aligns with the interests of another group of people, so he always succeeds, and even many people will spontaneously speak for him.
To say that Professor Qiao doesn't make these multifaceted calculations before each decision, I wouldn't believe it. But since he always makes it seem effortless, these calculations are probably a kind of instinct for him, or say an intuition, for making decisions. Plus, he constantly expresses signals of defending his own..."
Here, Director Du raised his hand to pat Lv Bei's shoulder, speaking with profound earnestness, "Lv Bei, I don't even know whether to envy you or not, you really turned a misfortune into a blessing this time. Professor Qiao kept you on board, and he wants us to hand over some work, which signifies something for you to think over slowly. Once you have figured it out, you might be qualified to take my place. I'm heading back,"
With that, Director Du walked away straight.
Leaving Lv Bei standing in the yard, dazed.
He realized he definitely could not take Director Du's position because neither Qiao Ze's line of thought nor the latter words of Director Du made any sense to him.
Was there a game of strategy today?
Had he been a part of it?
What exactly did Professor Qiao mean by the several questions he asked Director Du before he left?
He had clearly refused Professor Qiao's kindness, so why was he able to stay?
Why didn't Director Du even ask what Professor Qiao had just discussed with him?
Forget it...
No more thinking; he was just cut out to be a front-line worker. These cunning and convoluted thoughts of smart people were beyond him, and he had no desire to figure them out.
At most, in the future, he would stake his life to withstand the pressure in this position!
