Upon hearing this, Su Lin pinched Zhao Yanyan's nose and said, "I'm gentle more often than not."
After tucking Zhao Yanyan in, Su Lin left the room so she could rest.
This girl is really exhausted; Su Lin could even see the dark circles under her eyes.
"Mr. Zhao..."
Su Lin looked at the assistant in front of her and made a shushing gesture: "She's tired and is resting in the lounge."
The assistant glared at Su Lin and then said, "It's about time President Zhao got some rest. You have no idea how busy she's been."
Hearing this, Su Lin felt a little guilty. It seemed that Zhao Yanyan rarely had holidays. The only time she had rested recently was when he and Lin Xiaowan came to Donghai together.
Su Lin looked at the young assistant in front of him and asked, "Is there something you need?"
The assistant pouted and said, "You're in charge of things?"
Su Lin laughed: "You're standing up for Yan Yan, aren't you? She didn't even come to me to say these things, but you jumped out. Don't you know what it means to be tireless in your pursuit? Tell me what it is. Don't worry, what I say still carries weight."
The assistant glanced at Su Lin and then said, "General Manager Zhao asked us to change the external hosiery manufacturers. I just contacted them, and there are more than a dozen hosiery factories that want to cooperate with us. I don't know which one to choose."
Su Lin's eyes lit up. "Let them all bring a pair to try out the quality. We'll see. We'll choose the one with the best quality and the lowest price."
"Oh! I understand."
The assistant thought that Zhao Yanyan would have to work hard again, with more than a dozen manufacturers involved. Why not give it a try herself? Anyway, there are air conditioners everywhere in the supermarket, so it won't be too hot if she wears stockings.
If Su Lin knew what his assistant was thinking, he would definitely have Zhao Yan fired her.
Zhongjiang~!
Lin Xiaowan, Xia Shiyu, Chen Yang, and the managers of the seven branches were having a meeting in the conference room.
"I've made it very clear this time that whoever can develop the market in a city will become the general manager of that city. All seven of you have a chance. General Manager Lin has already decided where you seven will go, and the funds available to each of you have also been prepared. How well you do depends on yourselves."
The seven store managers were all excited. If this assignment was successful, they would become general managers of a city, each managing at least ten supermarkets.
There will be more in the future, and their salaries and other benefits will increase accordingly.
These are some of the company's first generation of veterans.
"President Chen, President Lin, President Xia, rest assured, I, Zhang Yong, will definitely establish myself as soon as possible."
"Zhang Yong, don't think that just because you arrived a few days earlier you're more capable than the rest of us. When it comes to market expansion, I, Liu Yang, am no pushover either."
"...."
Chen Yang waved his hand and said, "Talking won't open up the market. I don't doubt your abilities. I only care about the results."
All seven of them shuddered at the same time. They used to be store managers of the same shop and good friends.
But now that we've gone out to explore new markets, we've become competitors.
None of the seven wanted to fall behind, and it was obvious that the power struggle between the company's factions began here.
Chen Yang and Su Lin wouldn't care about any of this. If a company doesn't have factional struggles, then that company is not far from collapsing.
In other words, Xia Shiyu and Lin Xiaowan are Su Lin's women; otherwise, Chen Yang would still fight with them.
"The matter of sending personnel abroad to expand the market has been finalized, so shouldn't we talk about relocating the company headquarters next?" Lin Xiaowan said calmly.
She had no interest in these struggles at all; she and Xia Shiyu were the same—they just missed Su Lin.
No one knows what happened to Su Lin in Donghai, and he hasn't been able to come back. As women in the throes of new love, Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu can't bear to be separated from Su Lin for so long.
Chen Yang spoke up, "Should the Migration Headquarters discuss this with Su Lin?"
Lin Xiaowan shook her head and said, "No need, this matter was decided a long time ago, and Su Lin had already finalized it before."
Xia Shiyu nodded and said, "Yes, Chen Yang, Su Lin has already made this decision. We will definitely be staying in Donghai for a long time in the future, so we should make plans now while we still have time."
Chen Yang gave a wry smile. It was obvious that Xia Shiyu and Lin Xiaowan had already made up their minds, so there was no room for negotiation on this matter.
Chen Yang said, "But we haven't received any news from the East China Sea either. If we move there now, we won't even know where we'll live."
Lin Xiaowan smiled and said, "So Xiaoyu and I are going to Donghai on a business trip next. We'll choose a location there and set up our headquarters."
"Uh...you two are going together?"
Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu nodded simultaneously; "Of course, what else would you ask for?"
"But the company has so much to do."
Lin Xiaowan said seriously, "Chen Yang, Xiaoyu and I will both be leaving the company when the time comes. At that time, you will be in charge of marketing, human resources, and finance. So you should start learning to adapt now."
Chen Yang smiled wryly again. Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu were very capable. With the two of them in charge, he didn't have to work hard at all. But if someone else were in charge, the problem would be much bigger, and he would have to manage everything himself.
Su Lin is incredibly carefree. The entire Tesco company only has a few hundred million yuan in working capital, but he doesn't care at all, leaving it all to him to manage. He's not afraid that the company will collapse suddenly.
"Okay, when are you leaving?"
Lin Xiaowan smiled and said, "Of course it's tomorrow."
"Your dad wants you to go to the East China Sea tomorrow?" Chen Yang was somewhat incredulous. This was too fast; he wasn't prepared at all.
Lin Xiaowan laughed and said, "My dad has already made arrangements. He already knows that Su Lin and I are dating. At most, he will verbally object and then make me stay at my aunt's place."
"Xiaoyu, what about your dad?"
Xia Shiyu smiled and said, "I won't bother my dad."
"Hey... but this is way too fast."
"Yangzi, you'll have to work hard. Su Lin said that you can manage the company even if it were ten times bigger. He believes in you, and we believe in him."
"Yes, I'm the same as Xiaowan."
Chen Yang: "...."
158 Little Moon complains, Li Ziyu plans another attack [Please subscribe]
At the Qin family manor, Qin Jiuyue was clinging to Qin Deshu, crying and pleading, "Grandpa, you must avenge me this time, or you'll never see your granddaughter again."
Qin Deshu smiled kindly and said, "Who has offended our little moon again?"
"This time it's not about provoking anyone, it's about someone trying to kidnap me." After saying that, Qin Jiuyue deliberately put on a scared and hesitant expression, glanced at Qin Deshu a few times, and then lowered her head, looking like she didn't dare to speak.
Qin Jiuyue's acting skills are already comparable to those of a movie queen. Qin Deshu has no doubts. Seeing his beloved granddaughter in this state, looking angry but unable to speak out, Qin Deshu is furious.
"Xiaoyue, tell me, what exactly happened? Who dared to kidnap our Qin family's little Yueliang?"
"Yes...yes..."
"Who is it? Speak up!"
"Yes, Li Ziyu's fiancé, Xiao Chen!"
As she spoke, Qin Jiuyue seemed to open a floodgate, recounting the story of how Xiao Chen approached her that night and tried to kidnap her, embellishing the details.
"Grandpa, this Xiao Chen is a master of Chinese martial arts and the successor of the Ghost Doctor. I didn't know he was Li Ziyu's fiancé before. I thought Su Lin had helped me get rid of him, so I didn't dare to tell you. Today, I saw the portrait that Li Ziyu made and realized that the person was Xiao Chen, her fiancé."
Qin Jiuyue's words were full of loopholes, but just as Su Lin said, Qin Deshu surprisingly didn't ask any detailed questions. Instead, he looked at Qin Jiuyue with a serious expression and said, "How do you know he is the successor of Ghost Doctor Wang Yannian?"
"This…this is…Su Lin told me."
Qin Jiuyue eventually revealed Su Lin's identity. She felt that since Su Lin had agreed to let her come to her house to complain, he must have been mentally prepared, otherwise he would have definitely stopped her at the time.
"Su Lin, Su Zhenguo's son? When did you meet him?"
Qin Jiuyue nodded: "On my birthday, Su Lin traded a piece of Yuan blue and white porcelain with my third grandfather for his precious jade porcelain. Then I deliberately teased him and made him give me a gift. He gave me a toy snake, and that's how we met."
Qin Deshu nodded. He believed that Qin Jiuyue was telling the truth. From childhood to adulthood, Qin Jiuyue had never lied to him.
Moreover, such statements can be easily verified.
"So you went out that night?"
"It was my grandfather who forced me into this arranged marriage."
Qin Deshu sighed and said, "Xiaoyue, there are some things that your grandfather doesn't want to do, but big families also have their own helplessness. You don't understand now, but it will be too late when you do."
"Ugh! Grandpa, Xiao Chen bullied me like this, are you just going to let it go like this?" Qin Jiuyue asked angrily.
Qin Deshu slammed his hand on the table. "How could we just let this go? Don't worry, Xiaoyue, Grandpa will make sure the Li family gives you an explanation."
Qin Deshu's eyes gleamed. He didn't care at all why Su Lin knew Xiao Chen's identity. All he needed to know was that Xiao Chen had almost kidnapped Qin Jiuyue. He would deal with the rest later.
"No, it's not just the Li family, but also that Xiao Chen. I heard Li Ziyu is chasing after him. Grandpa, I want revenge too!" Qin Jiuyue stared at Qin Deshu with a stubborn expression.
Qin Deshu was somewhat surprised to hear that Li Ziyu was chasing after Xiao Chen, but he also felt it was only natural.
Why did Li Ziyu take over the company's business? It was all to avoid the arranged marriage. With her intelligence, she knew that Xiao Chen was the marriage partner, and once she knew that the matter was a done deal, it would be perfectly reasonable for her to kill Xiao Chen.
Qin Deshu wanted to burst into laughter. Others might not know how terrifying Wang Yannian was, but he did. Such a good husband, and Li Ziyu actually wanted to kill him. It was truly heaven helping the Qin family.
A sharp glint flashed in Qin Deshu's eyes before he said, "Little Moon, stay home and take good care of yourself. Don't get involved with Xiao Chen. Grandpa will handle it for you."
He did intend to surround and kill Xiao Chen, but he absolutely could not let the Qin family do it, otherwise Wang Yannian's wrath would be unbearable for most people.
Qin Deshu already had a plan in mind.
Su Lin had just dropped Zhao Yanyan off at home and was about to rest when he received a call from Li Ziyu.
Li Ziyu's cold voice came from the phone. Su Lin could tell that the woman's voice had become much colder, as if she had no emotions.
It makes sense when you think about it. Li Ziyu had been schemed against by her grandfather for so long, it would be strange if she could get over it easily.
"Su Lin, Xiao Chen has been found."
