After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

Chapter 2302: Shut Out

Editor: Atlas Studios

The Xia family’s third son would have to rely on Xia Xing to continue his lineage! She still had many ways to deal with Tang Hui!

Gao Long had not visited the capital for so many years and the place had already changed a lot. Xia Wan wanted to show Gao Long around the capital, so Qiao Mei did not go with them.

It had been a long time since she had gone to the factory. She did not know how much progress the factory had made. It was time for her to go and take a look. Otherwise, she would really only be an insignificant chairperson.

It was a workday today and all the employees in the factory must be at work at this moment. Qiao Mei did not inform Qian’e in advance as she intended for her visit to be a “spot check”.

By now, the security officers at the main entrance were all new faces. Qiao Mei wanted to drive into the factory, but a security officer quickly walked out of the security booth and said politely, “Hello, may I know who you’re looking for?”

“I’m here to look for your Director Qian,” Qiao Mei said.

“May I ask if you have an appointment or possess a passcard from our factory director?” the security officer then asked.

Passcard? What is a passcard? Has the factory been converted into a spa? Why does one need a passcard for entry?

“I know your factory director. Just give her a call and tell her that I’m Qiao Mei,” Qiao Mei said patiently.

The security officer shook his head and rejected her request. “I’m really sorry. We can’t let you in if you don’t have an appointment or a passcard. Please understand that this is our job.”

Qiao Mei was very satisfied with how Qian’e had managed the place, but now that such a strict management style was actually blocking her from gaining entry, she really felt a little helpless. However, she had really been too hands-off when it came to the business, so it was quite normal that no one here knew who she was.

Just as Qiao Mei was at her wits’ end, the captain of the security team walked out leisurely. When he saw the license plate number of her car, he hurriedly ran over and said, “Oh my! Director Qiao! Long time no see!”

Qiao Mei did not have much of an impression of this man and was rendered speechless for a moment. Just as Qiao Mei tried to rack her memories, the captain of the security team said, “It’s normal if you don’t remember who I am. I’m Zhuang Kai. Back when you were in charge, I did odd jobs in the workshop. At that time, it was very hot in the workshop and I was admitted to the hospital for heatstroke. You were the one who arranged for someone to send me a lot of money and even told me that I can continue working in the factory!”

Qiao Mei could not recall this matter at all. Perhaps it was just a small gesture for her at that time, but for people like Zhuang Kai, it was something that could change their lives. This was the first time Qiao Mei realized that she had so much influence now.

“Well done! You look much better in this outfit!” Qiao Mei said, praising him.

“I’ll continue to work hard!” Zhuang Kai waved at the people in the security officer’s booth in the distance and indicated for them to open the gate. Qiao Mei finally managed to enter the factory.

Seeing Qiao Mei’s car was already in the distance, Zhuang Kai turned around and gave the security officer a hard kick as he said, “Didn’t anyone give you any briefing when you came to work at the factory? Do any of you pay attention to the photos on the wall? That’s the actual factory director of this factory! Director Qiao! You must be really blind! If you offend Director Qiao today! Do you think you will still have a job!”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry! I really don’t know about this!” the security officer said fearfully.

“It’s fine. Just make sure to note down this license plate number! Remember this face! Director Qiao is a nice person and won’t blame you. But… but you really did a good job just now. You should strictly follow the rules and regulations when you encounter people you don’t recognize. If the higher-ups punish you, I’ll speak up for you,” Zhuang Kai said.

“Thank you, Brother Zhuang! Thank you, Brother Zhuang!” the security officer said.

Qiao Mei did not go straight to the office building but took a drive around the factory. Not only was the place twice as big as before, there were also many more employees. There were even many new staff dormitory buildings.

“Wow, what brings you here?” Qian’e asked as she leaned against the main door of the office building and looked at Qiao Mei.

“I have some free time and I’m just here to take a look at how our Director Qian is doing,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“Oh~ Then do you think I have managed the place well? Director Qiao?” Qian’e asked laughingly.

“Not bad, not bad. It’s really not too bad. You have done a good job with the security officers you hired at the main entrance. I almost couldn’t get in,” Qiao Mei said in satisfaction.

Qian’e looked at Qiao Mei suspiciously and asked, “Are you praising me or scolding me?”

“Don’t think too much. Of course it’s a compliment. But tell me, what is a passcard? Is it part of your new rules and regulations?” Qiao Mei teased.

“You don’t even know how well the factory is doing now. We have orders fully lined up for the next three years. I’m even planning for further expansion!” Qian’e said proudly.

“Oh my, you’re doing not too bad. Tell me, how many properties have you bought?” Qiao Mei asked curiously. She knew that Qian’e had been secretly buying houses, but she did not find out how many there were.
