BXBX NOVEL Chapter 127 New CEO Is A Woman

CHAPTER 127
As soon as Old man Jiang and Bai Renxiang stepped their foot into the building\'s first floor, their eyes were greeted by the sea of people in the first floor. Many employees were already there, waiting to see and welcome their new CEO and also wanting to satisfy their curiosity of how the new CEO looked like.
Once the employees noticed that the chairman is here on person, they all bowed and greeted.
"Welcome Chairman."
Old man Jiang nodded his head as he had a small smile on his face. Then he cleared his throat, ready to announce the presence of the new CEO of his company.
"Greetings to you all. I am very certain that you gave heard a thing or two about the new CEO that will be arriving today," he started and the employees nodded their head in confirmation to his words.
"Well then, this lady besides me is my granddaughter and I hereby pronounce her as the new CEO of Jiang\'s Corporation," he announced in a proud and stern voice.
The employees were rather shocked. The new CEO is a woman! And that to a young lady like some of them. They never expected this. They all thought that the next CEO of this company would be a man. Without any further ado to prevent them from being seen as disrespectful, they bowed in respect.
"Welcome to Jiang\'s Corporation boss," they all shouted in unison. It made Bai Renxiang\'s heart skip several bits.
"Thank you for your warm welcome. I hope we get along well and work together to achieve greater heights in business," she said.
Not only did her being a woman surprise them, her voice also did. It sounded warm and cold at the same time. The aura around her was that of a leader. She looked confident, bold and brave to be able to bear or rather accept the great responsibilities of a huge company like this one.
"We also hope to achieve those greater heights with you boss," they said in excitement.
After that, Old man Jiang, Bai Renxiang and Charlie headed to the CEO office, that is now hers. The office was big. It was painted with pure white. There was also a big maroon mahogany desk and leather chair in the middle of the room. It had floor to ceiling window at the left hand side of the table and chair like other CEOs\' offices.
A maroon double seater sofa and a single one around a coffee table was located at the right hand side for eating or where herself and her guest would seat down to discuss. Another thing that caught her attention is maroon coloured door at one corner in the office.
She turned to look at her grandfather with a raised brow as she asked.
"Grandpa, do you have a thing for maroon?" Apart from the white walls, maroon is the only colour. But nonetheless, she still liked it that way. It has its own uniqueness.
"Hahaha. It is not what you think child. It is your grandmother that picked the colour that the office should be painted with. I was thinking of either grey or ash," he chuckled.
Bai Renxiang winced at her grandfather\'s choice of colour. She thanked her grandmother for not allowing him to choose the colours instead.
She pushed open the door and was greeted by a king size bed in the middle of the room and just like hers, the headboard is resting on the wall.
She took her time examining the huge room. It had a little kitchen compartment, a bathroom, wardrobe for clothes and a table and chair like the coffee table and sofa in the office.
"This room was made in case the CEO wants to rest or will be working overtime in the company. Later in the day, some clothes will be arranged in the wardrobe," old man Jiang said.
Bai Renxiang nodded her head in understanding and both of them left the room after a while of touring it.
When she came out, she found her laptop and some files were already arranged neatly on the once empty desk. Charlie was there waiting for them. Once he saw them exit the room, he informed them of the board meeting that will be taking place in five minutes time.
Bai Renxiang thanked him before he left to make sure everything was set for the meeting. Old man Jiang sighed as he looked at Bai Renxiang who had started preparing for her first official meeting as CEO.
"You will be dear," his voice stopped Bai Renxiang from whatever she was doing. She looked at her grandfather and gave him an appreciative smile.
"I know I will grandpa. Besides, I have attended some of these meetings when I used to work in Bai Jewelries. It is just that this will be my first as a CEO and I am a little nervous at how I will do," she admitted.
Bai Renxiang has never been a CEO before and this being the first time, she could not help but feel nervous. Her palms were already sweaty. Old man Jiang smiled and patted the empty space besides him on the sofa where he was sitting. Bai Renxiang went and sat next to him.
"You what to know what? I myself felt the same way when I took over this company from my father, your great-grandfather," he said.
"Really? You are not being serious are you?" Bai Renxiang asked in surprise.
"Mmmhmm. It is true," he nodded.
"So what did you do? I mean how did the meeting go?"
"It went smoothly. I did not allow myself to feel intimidated by the stares from the directors of the board. I made sure not to show any form of emotion on my face do that I would look fierce." Bai Renxiang stared at him in awe and admiration.
"Sometimes if I am asked a question that I have a clue of, I would answer smartly."
