The whole company was betting on how long the CEO's newly kept assistant would last.
With that affected, precious attitude, he probably wouldn't last even three months.
But the assistant, Feng Deng, had no sense of impending doom at all. He kept making a scene at the company and acting like he owned the place, annoying even the dogs.
The CEO didn't seem to like him that much, either. He fobbed him off with gold and jewels every day, and Feng Deng was still overjoyed.
Sure enough, when three months were up, the CEO hired a new assistant: a fair, clean-cut student type who treated money like dirt and devoted his whole heart to the CEO.
Now that was high-level stuff. The other guy should learn a thing or two.
That was what everyone thought.
The clueless, low-level Feng Deng left with a generous severance package, and everyone figured they would never see him again.
Half a month later, Feng Deng showed up at the company as the CEO's arranged-marriage partner.
Rumor had it that his father was Asia's richest man.
If the CEO's arranged marriage fell through, the company could go bankrupt in an instant.
Everyone: ...???
CEO, you should really get a clue. Go appease your sister-in-law already! What use is the company if it loses you?
