As soon as Ma Anna arrived at the company that afternoon, Yu Hong stormed into her office.

"Chen Bin is a problem, he needs to be fired immediately!"

This left Ma Anna somewhat puzzled, "What happened?"

"He was wandering around outside your office all morning. I suspect he's trying to steal secrets."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, you can investigate."

"Alright, I got it. You go ahead and get back to work."

After sending Yu Hong off, Ma Anna picked up the landline and called Chen Bin.

"Come to my office."

As soon as Chen Bin walked in, he asked proactively, "Yu Hong must have come over just now, right?"

"Yes! So tell me, what were you doing outside my office this morning?"

With furrowed brows, Chen Bin's expression looked a bit grim.

"It's one thing for him to slander me, but why don't you believe me either?"

"I definitely trust you, but there are some things I need to clarify; otherwise, people will gossip."

"After I arrived at the company this morning, I passed by your office door and saw someone sneaking in. Out of curiosity, I took a peek at the door, and I didn't expect him to be the first to complain!"

Nodding, after sending Chen Bin off, Ma Anna called the Security Department.

"Get the surveillance footage immediately and see who came to my office this morning."

The response came quickly from the other end, "Mr. Yu was there, everything else was normal."

"What about Secretary Chen?"

"He just passed by the door, ran into Mr. Yu, and didn't go in."

Hanging up the phone, Ma Anna understood.

This must be Yu Hong's scheme, trying to get her to drive Chen Bin out of the company.

Although very angry, she didn't want to expose him.

However, if Yu Hong dared to act recklessly again, she certainly wouldn't be polite with him.

After work that evening, Chen Bin received a message from Zheng Junjie.

"The technical department analyzed it; there was nothing valuable on the USB drive."

With a sigh, Chen Bin felt a bit disappointed.

However, he could understand why Ma Anna, as a spy, wouldn't be so careless.

For some time after, Chen Bin had been trying to get into Section B of the company.

But after observing, he found that he had no chance at all.

During the day, it was guarded by security, and at night, you needed a pass to get in.

Besides the staff who worked inside, only the Vice Presidents could enter Section B.

In other words, for Chen Bin to get in via conventional means, he had to get promoted.

The company was currently negotiating a collaboration with a state-owned enterprise. Once a contract was signed, it could generate tens of millions in revenue.

Since Ma Anna placed great importance on this, Chen Bin saw it as a good opportunity for promotion.

So he communicated with the relevant department under the name of the Security Department.

The day before the two companies were to sign the contract, he halted the signing.

Learning that the counterpart suddenly changed their mind left Ma Anna very surprised.

She even called personally to ask what was going on.

The other side replied that after a board meeting discussion, further consideration was needed.

Ma Anna thought it was a trick to make her offer more concessions, so she called directly, saying she could offer a two percent concession, only to find the other side unmoved.

She had to grit her teeth and lower it by another three percent, which was her bottom line.

However, the other company showed no interest and said they would continue to consider it.

Ma Anna never imagined things would turn out this way, and she was instantly anxious.

Just as she didn't know what to do, Chen Bin knocked and walked in.

"The other side still hasn't budged?"

"No!" Ma Anna shook her head in frustration.

"Shall I give it a try?"

"Oh, you have a way?"

"I'm not sure I can handle it, but after so many years in the system, I do have connections."

At this point, with no other option, Ma Anna could only nod reluctantly.

In her view, since Chen Bin no longer held his previous status, people might not listen to him.

But it's worth a try; if he really could salvage the deal, that would be wonderful.

"As long as you can help finalize the collaboration, I'll agree to whatever you want."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true! If I'm lying, I'll take your last name."

"No problem, then wait for my good news!"

After leaving the office, Chen Bin started running around outside pretending to be busy.

Two days later, Ma Anna finally received a response.

After careful consideration by the board, they decided to sign the contract with MA Technology.

They even said there's no time like the present and were ready to sign the contract that day.

After signing the contract, Ma Anna got in the car and excitedly gave Chen Bin a big kiss.

"Darling, you're amazing, I love you to death!"

Chen Bin responded with a smile, "You haven't forgotten what you promised me, right?"

"Of course not, tell me, what do you want?"

As soon as Ma Anna finished speaking, Chen Bin drew her into his arms.

The unexpected move startled her, and as she looked at Chen Bin's intense gaze, a blush crept over her cheeks.

Unintentionally, she slowly closed her eyes.

At that moment, Chen Bin's teasing voice suddenly rang in her ear.

"What are you doing? I just noticed something on your head."

Realizing she'd been tricked, Ma Anna was immediately both angry and embarrassed.

She raised her tiny fists and swung them at Chen Bin.

After a playful tussle, Chen Bin quickly grabbed Ma Anna's small hands.

He said seriously, "I want to be Vice President."

She gave a coquettish hum, clearly annoyed.

"Tricking me and still wants to be Vice President? Not a chance!"

Though she said so, Ma Anna didn't intend to refuse Chen Bin's request.

After all, he'd made a significant contribution to the company, so a Vice President position was well-deserved.

Back at the company, Ma Anna immediately called for a meeting with the company's middle and senior management to announce the appointment of Chen Bin as Vice President of Business.

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Hong immediately objected.

"I disagree! Chen Bin hasn't been at the company for long. Becoming Vice President after just striking one deal doesn't convince anyone!"

Slightly frowning, Ma Anna's expression turned somewhat stern.

"It's true that Chen Bin hasn't been with the company long, but he was able to turn the tide at a critical moment. I believe he's very capable of being Vice President. So it's decided! Meeting adjourned."

As soon as Ma Anna returned to her office, Yu Hong pushed the door open and entered.

"By making Chen Bin Vice President, he gains access to Section B. You should know what Section B represents to outsiders, and if anything goes wrong, can you shoulder that responsibility?!"

With a cold sneer, Ma Anna looked down on this.

"I know you don't like Chen Bin, but don't you find your reasoning ridiculous? Do you really think Chen Bin came to our company just to get into Section B? Do you think he's a spy?"
