"Chairman, I intend to resign. Here is my resignation letter." Lexington took out a resignation letter that she had prepared long ago from the drawer of her desk. In fact, she had been considering resigning for half a year, but at that time, she had not figured out what she wanted to do next, so she kept postponing it. If it weren't for encountering the fireflies yesterday, this resignation letter might have remained indefinitely in the drawer.
"Why?" Gao Yue, who sat down in the chair in front of the desk, did not take the resignation letter from Lexington but instead asked a question in return.
"I have a younger sister whom I lost contact with since childhood. I recently received some news about her and want to go look for her." As she spoke, Lexington's face was filled with tenderness. It could be said that after learning from the fireflies about Admiral's disappearance, the only belief that supported her to keep living was her sister Saratoga.
"This is good news, but why do you want to resign? I can approve you for another month of leave; if that's not enough, two months or even half a year would work." Gao Yue carefully considered her tone. For Lexington, if possible, Gao Yue did not want to let her go.
"Thank you for your kindness, Chairman. It's just that if I find my sister, I will probably stay with her and won't return to Rongcheng." Lexington had no information about where her sister Saratoga was or when she might find her. Moreover, even if she were close to finding Saratoga, she did not plan on returning to Rongcheng; for Lexington at this moment, wherever her sister was, that was where she wanted to be.
"Xiao Lin, have you thought this through? You know the situation at Gao's family; as long as you stay with the company, Tiandu Group will eventually be yours." Gao Yue did not want to say such things; she knew very well that Lexington was not the kind of girl who craved vanity or dreamed of marrying into a wealthy family. But for the sake of her precious son, she had to say it.
Indeed, Gao Yue valued Lexington for two reasons: one was Lexington's abilities, and the other was for her son.
Since her husband had passed away unexpectedly, Gao Yue had never remarried. Therefore, she doted on her son who resembled her husband immensely; he was like something precious that she feared would break if held too tightly. As a result, her son Li Ze grew up to be a typical playboy who spent his days indulging in pleasures and causing trouble without doing anything serious. However, two years ago, when he came to the company looking for money, he encountered Lexington, who was just an ordinary clerk at that time. From that day on, her son suddenly changed; he completely cut ties with his former friends and even requested to work at one of the factories under Tiandu Group. When asked why he wanted to do that, he said he liked the clerk named Lin Qing and wanted to prove himself so that Lin Qing would see him in a new light and recognize him.
Initially, Gao Yue thought it was just a phase and did not take it seriously. But unexpectedly, Li Ze truly began working diligently at that factory; during his spare time, he would seek advice from experienced technicians on various technical issues. This situation continued for an entire month without any sign of him backing down. Only then did Gao Yue realize that her son was serious about it. It was also from that moment on that Gao Yue began paying attention to Lexington; seeing how outstanding Lexington's work capabilities were led her to promote Lexington directly to the position of president against all odds.
This was unavoidable; Gao Yue knew exactly what kind of person her son was. Although Li Ze worked hard after his transformation, he was only suited for being a technician; managing a factory was one thing, but managing the entire Tiandu Group was simply asking too much. Therefore, Gao Yue had always been nurturing Lexington according to the standards of cultivating a successor.
Of course, becoming a daughter-in-law of the Li family wasn't easy either. While Gao Yue could overlook the fact that Lexington had been married before, she placed great importance on Lexington's character. That is why after Lexington became president, Gao Yue delegated all authority within the group to her and subtly encouraged those wealthy young men among the board members to pursue Lexington; all of this was actually a test for Lexington.
Now, Gao Yue is very satisfied with Lexington. Not only is she beautiful, but her demeanor is also flawless. More importantly, Lexington has undoubtedly earned her recognition and approval through her capabilities and integrity at work. As for the fact that she likes to travel, that slightly bothers her. But what does it matter? Young people are like that! Once they get married and have children in the future, their hearts will surely settle down.
However, just as she was about to "pick the peach," Lexington unexpectedly said she was leaving and would never return to Rongcheng. How could Gao Yue agree to that?
"Chairman, please clarify your words." A hint of displeasure appeared on Lexington's face as she vaguely guessed something.
"Li Ze, you know him, right? He is my son. He has always liked you..." When an unhappy expression appeared on Lexington's face, Gao Yue knew things were going south, but how could she give up without trying?
"Chairman, enough. I don't want to hear any more of this." Lexington directly interrupted Gao Yue. She had absolute confidence in her appearance; if she really wanted to find an Admiral, it would be very easy. Lexington was also confident that she could make the Admiral like her in a very short time and become the Admiral's Wedding Ship. Yet even now, knowing her Admiral was no longer around, Lexington had no such thoughts. She only had one Admiral in her life, and from now on, she would not become anyone else's Fleet Girl. However, for some reason, at this moment, a young man's figure suddenly appeared in her mind; it was the Admiral of the Fireflies.
But now was not the time to think about these things.
Placing the project proposal in front of Gao Yue, Lexington spoke expressionlessly: "Chairman, as long as you execute the plan outlined in this proposal, Tiandu Group will surely advance further. Consider this as repayment for your past care towards me; from now on, we will owe each other nothing."
After saying that, Lexington walked straight out of the office.
Once downstairs, she picked up her suitcase from the front desk and turned to exit the company's main door.
"President Lin, where are you going? I'll give you a ride." Xie Tao, who had been waiting by the roadside, parked the car in front of Lexington.
Not wanting to be overly formal, Lexington placed her luggage properly before opening the back door and sitting inside. "Uncle Xie, I've resigned. You don't need to call me President Lin anymore. Please take me to the port."
"No problem."
With the roar of the engine, the black sedan carrying Lexington disappeared into the bustling traffic of the street.
An hour after Lexington left, two figures, one large and one small, finally appeared outside Sky City Corporation.
The world is vast; perhaps if this opportunity is missed, it will be lost forever.
