Tan Xiu waited for Mu Wanying to sign the house purchase contract before the two of them directly left without even bidding farewell to Chen Bin. Although Tan Xiu was a bit indifferent to Chen Bin on the surface, he was still very grateful to him inside. On the way back, he called Jin Xingkui and thanked him. He told him that he would treat him to a drink tomorrow night and also told him to call Chen Bin.
"Boyfriend, you're my idol now."
Mu Wanying grabbed the steering wheel and her eyes were full of splendor as she glanced at Tan Xiu. After seeing him hang up the phone, she said with a smile.
Tan Xiu couldn't help laughing and said, "You're the first beauty in the Imperial Capital and the first campus belle of Shanghai University, yet you actually regard me as your idol? That's my honor. "
"Then, do I have the honor to treat my idol to lunch?" Mu Wanying said with a smile.
"Of course. You saved a lot of money today, so you must treat me to a big meal," Tan Xiu nodded and said with a smile.
"I've inquired about it. There's a new Paradise Manor in Shanghai recently. I heard that the dishes there are very special, and the most important thing is that the environment there is also very good. Let's go there to have a meal! "
Paradise Manor?
Tan Xiu stared blankly for a moment before he immediately said with a smile, "Alright! That Paradise Manor is opened by Lulu, so maybe she can give us a discount. "
"Lulu? Ouyang Lulu? "
Mu Wanying had seen Ouyang Lulu, so her brows slightly furrowed.
"Yeah, it's her," said Tan Xiu.
Mu Wanying pondered for a moment before she suddenly shook her head and said, "I've decided to treat you to a different place."
"Why?" Tan Xiu was surprised.
"Ouyang Lulu is too familiar with you, so I'm afraid that she won't accept the money like she did today," said Mu Wanying with a straight face. "I said I'll treat you to a meal, so you're going to let me spend the money for today's meal, no?"
"..."
Tan Xiu listened to Mu Wanying's fallacy and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Mu Wanying glanced at Tan Xiu again, but she didn't speak again. She was very clear about one thing in her heart: Ouyang Lulu was Tan Xiu's confidante. Her family was a big clan in Jingmen Island, but she unexpectedly ran to Shanghai to open a restaurant. Perhaps, just like what she thought, she wanted to be closer to Tan Xiu in Shanghai. In other words, she was likely to be his competitor.
In the end.
Mu Wanying picked a high-class restaurant in Shanghai and treated Tan Xiu to a feast. In terms of price, the two of them were even more extravagant with a five-digit figure.
Since they had classes in the afternoon, the two of them returned to Shanghai University after lunch. After agreeing to look for a renovation team together, they went their separate ways.
Leisurely time always passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, Tan Xiu had been back from the capital for half a month. During this half a month, he occasionally went out to drink with Jin Xingkui and occasionally accepted Gu Changmin and Zhang Yueming's invitation to have a small gathering with them. Even Ouyang Lulu came to him a few times and pestered him for a few days. As for the rest of the time, he would attend classes at school when he had classes and teach Dai Xinyue about traditional Chinese medicine in Bluestar Villa Complex when he had no classes. Even at this time, he would cram on a lot of traditional Chinese medicine knowledge.
The early morning sun was particularly bright and beautiful.
After breakfast, Tan Xiu received a call from Kuwako and learned that she had come to Shanghai. Tan Xiu asked her about her intentions in coming to Shanghai, but Kuwako mysteriously kept him guessing.
"No classes on Saturday, no classes on Sunday, and no classes on Monday today. I've been staying at home for two days, so it's time to go out for a stroll. "
Tan Xiu stood on the balcony and Chen Xiaowan's appearance emerged in his mind. Since their last meeting, they hadn't seen each other in more than half a month, except for a casual chat on the phone.
"Ah, that's right. Sis Xiaowan seems to be working in the Brisk Trading Group."
Tan Xiu had thought about poaching Chen Xiaowan to work in the Magnificent Tang Corp, but he hadn't found the right opportunity to mention it to her since they had just met.
"I'm going to find her."
After making up his mind, Tan Xiu went downstairs to the garage and even picked the Agera R sports car. He was ready to play the role of a playboy to support his older sister.
On the way to the Brisk Trading Group, Tan Xiu thought about Sujanin again. Sujanin was working in the Imperial Capital now. Although her position and salary were quite good, she was just a senior white-collar worker, after all, and it was somewhat inappropriate for her to stay there alone.
He was quite ruthless sometimes, but after his relationship with Sujanin in the Imperial Capital improved a bit, he had the idea to let Sujanin leave the Imperial Capital and work in the Magnificent Tang Corp. Not to mention that if it weren't for Sujanin, it would have been impossible for him to know Chen Xiaowan. Therefore, after hesitating for a while, he put on his Bluetooth headset and dialed Sujanin's number.
"What's up?"
Sujanin's cold voice came from the phone. However, Tang Xiu could tell from her words that she had saved his number.
"How have you been recently? Did you suffer any grievances working in the Imperial Capital? "asked Tan Xiu.
"Thanks to you, Boss treats me very well now," said Sujanin.
"It's not a long-term plan for you to work alone in the Imperial Capital," said Tan Xiu. "You can work in the Magnificent Tang Corp if you want! Kang Xia has been preparing for a big move recently and has decided to set up branch offices in major provinces in the country. You can choose any province except the Imperial Capital and Shanghai to be the branch's General Manager. "
Sujanin fell into silence.
Although her job in the Imperial Capital was very good, she still felt a bit depressed. After all, she was all alone in the Imperial Capital. It was fine in normal times as she would occasionally go out with her friends. But every time she was sick and uncomfortable, she always hoped to have her loved ones by her side. Especially last week, when she had a bad cold and was lying in bed, no one even brought her a bottle of water. Even at that time, she suddenly felt that even if Tan Xiu was there, she would still feel a trace of warmth.
Looking at Sujanin's silence, Tan Xiu lightly said, "You don't need to rush to give me an answer. After all, the establishment of the branch offices in each province has yet to be officially scheduled. I'm afraid it will take another 10 days. Just think about it and tell me when you've made up your mind. "
"Alright!"
Sujanin let out an imperceptible grunt.
"Let me tell you something," said Tan Xiu. "I met Sis Xiaowan in Shanghai."
"Chen Xiaowan?" Sujanin stared blankly and hurriedly asked.
"That's right. She works in a foreign-funded enterprise in Shanghai," said Tan Xiu.
"Can you give me her contact number?" Sujanin quickly said. "We separated after graduating from high school. We occasionally contacted each other during college, but we eventually broke off contact due to various reasons. I wanted to find her after graduation, but I found that she had changed her contact number." "Alright.
I'll send it to your cell phone later. "
After hanging up the phone, Tan Xiu sent Chen Xiaowan's cell phone number to Sujanin.
At the Brisk Trading Group.
Chen Xiaowan was in a very bad mood. Sitting in the office chair, she looked at the angry expression of her boss who parachuted into the company. She was disheartened.
As the Vice President of the Human Resources Department, she was appreciated by her previous boss and usually worked very comfortably. But just over a week ago, her immediate boss resigned from the position of the Human Resources Department's General Manager due to illness and strongly recommended her to the company's top management to be the Human Resources Department's General Manager.
Unfortunately …
The sudden appearance of a General Manager made her unable to get the opportunity to be promoted. It would have been fine if it was only this. But the most depressing thing was that this General Manager who parachuted into her position was her arch-enemy during college, the former Vice President of the Student Union, Miao Xinran.
"You're abusing your position to avenge a private grudge!"
Chen Xiaowan suppressed her anger and looked at Miao Xinran, whose hands were pressed on her desk.
"Chen Xiaowan, please don't be so narrow-minded!" Miao Xinran angrily said. "The grudge between us in the past was indeed because your ability was better and you finally became the Student Union President. But that's all in the past, and I've long forgotten about it. Now, I'm the Human Resources Department's General Manager of the Brisk Trading Group, while you're just the Vice President, my subordinate. I have the right to arrange your work. "
After saying that …
The anger on Miao Xinran's face suddenly subsided by more than half. Instead, there was a trace of pride on her face as she said, "Who told you not to have the ability to marry a good man? My husband is the Vice President of the Brisk Trading Group. He's very powerful and has a deep background in Japan. But what about you? I heard that you got dumped by a wild man not long ago, right? I can still see the color of the green hat on your head. "
"You … you bastard!"
Chen Xiaowan suddenly got up and angrily cursed.
Miao Xinran sneered, "What's wrong? Are you angry out of shame? Let me tell you, I need to send some people to the Western branch. I know the conditions there are a bit hard, but the welfare and benefits are not reduced. So, you have to go, even if you don't want to. Otherwise, pack your things and get the hell out of here. "
After saying that …
She didn't give Chen Xiaowan time to speak. She raised her chin and walked outside with her hateful high heels.
Chen Xiaowan gasped for a few breaths and an unwilling look appeared in her eyes. It was very difficult to be promoted in a Japanese company, unless one's performance was particularly outstanding. Only then would there be a very small chance of being promoted. She had worked herself to death and achieved good results before she was barely promoted to the position of Vice President of the Human Resources Department.
But now …
She knew that she couldn't stay here any longer.
She didn't want to leave Shanghai. Had it been more than half a month ago, she might have considered going to the Western region. But now, she was no longer alone in Shanghai. She also had her little brother … Tan Xiu.
Ring, ring, ring …
Her cell phone rang, interrupting her thoughts.
Chen Xiaowan picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID. She found that it was an unfamiliar number from the Imperial Capital. She wanted to hang up, but she hesitated and adjusted her mood. After picking up the call, she said, "Who is it, Xiaowan?"
"Xiaowan?"
Sujanin's voice came from the phone.
Chen Xiaowan was startled. The voice was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was for a while. Just as she wanted to ask who the other party was, Sujanin's appearance suddenly appeared in her mind. Suddenly, her mood fluctuated. With a trace of expectation and excitement, she tentatively asked, "Yaning?"
