Lin Yuqing's expression changed, and the way she looked at Jiang Can also changed.

She really hadn't considered that!

If she were in her shoes, she would definitely prioritize her own selfish desires.

After all, she's not a saint.

"It seems I still lack the most basic judgment about human nature!" Lin Yuqing laughed. "Can Can, you're usually so quiet, but when you do speak, you make a lot of sense!"

“My judgment may not be correct either,” Jiang Can chuckled. “But Gu Mang told me that one should always be wary of others and to be cautious in everything I do. He also said that those who hold high positions have a very difficult path to climb up, so they are far more complex than they appear.”

"Wow, your husband has become your life mentor?"

Lin Yuqing's comment was originally meant as a joke, but Jiang Canxuan couldn't stop when she started showing off her husband.

"Of course! Our Gu Mang knows so much!" Jiang Can couldn't hide her pride. "Sister Yuqing, do you know? I often see him browsing foreign websites. He can read several languages ​​and he also cares about current affairs and economics!"

"What?" Lin Yuqing also found it unbelievable.

Thinking back to her first meeting with Gu Mang, she felt a sense of oppression and a powerful aura emanating from him. If she hadn't known beforehand that he had been in a fight and served time in prison, she would have really thought he was some kind of extraordinary person.

"Can Can, how much do you really know about your husband?"

Jiang Can was taken aback. "Why do you ask that?"

Lin Yuqing smirked, "We were just chatting! You've made him sound so amazing, I'm actually a little curious about him now!"

Jiang Can smiled innocently, but then she realized she didn't really know much about Gu Mang. Aside from his "glorious history" and the fact that he had no family, it seemed like she knew nothing else.

...

The next day, as soon as Jiang Can arrived at work, Sun Teng called her into his office.

Jiang Can felt a little awkward, while Sun Teng smiled kindly at her and politely had his secretary bring her coffee. He then sat opposite her and quietly observed her.

"So you're Jiang Can." Sun Teng chuckled. "I've heard there's a talented person in the sales department who landed a deal with General Manager Xiao in his second month with the company. I've always wanted to meet him, and today my wish has finally come true!"

"Mr. Sun, you flatter me." Jiang Can put down her coffee cup, her attitude neither humble nor arrogant. "Actually, Mr. Sun, you can see me whenever you want, but you are usually busy, and my performance is not particularly outstanding in the sales department."

Sun Teng narrowed his eyes and looked her over again from head to toe.

Jiang Can is not only beautiful, but also very eloquent. With just a few words, she managed to smooth things over without showing off her own contribution. She is truly a talented person.

No wonder her niece was so wary of her.

However, the company is in dire need of manpower right now, and losing such a capable assistant would be a loss for the company.

You can mess with Jiang Can anytime, but not openly. Make her suffer, but in the eyes of others, it will appear as if the company and leaders are doing her a favor.

Only in this way can we achieve our goal.

Sun Teng touched the gold thumb ring on his hand, revealing a sly smile.

"Jiang Can, the reason I called you here today is to give you a task."

Jiang Can looked up at him.

“The company has always hoped to enter the central city market, and we’ve been planning this for several years,” Sun Teng said casually. “But that market is hard to get into; there are too many applicants and not enough opportunities. Everyone is eyeing it, and our company doesn’t have any special advantages, so we can only watch others make money.”

"Now two more key personnel have left the sales department, taking many customers with them, making the market situation quite severe."

"So we shareholders discussed it and decided to promote young people who are capable and have good performance."

Jiang Can frowned slightly, her heart pounding wildly.

Sun Teng smiled at her, a complex look flashing in his eyes. "Jiang Can, we all agree that you are very suitable for this position."

"Mr. Sun, you mean..."

“The capable should do more,” Sun Teng said, emphasizing each word. “You are the most suitable person to develop the Central City market.”

Jiang Can rolled her eyes, and suddenly a feeling of unease crept up from the bottom of her heart.

"We've all seen the sales plans you've prepared before; they're practically perfect," Sun Teng praised her. "Your performance speaks for itself, and your abilities are outstanding. Nobody wants to miss out on someone as talented as you!"

"Jiang Can, if the Central City market development is successful, the board of directors won't just make you a sales team leader; they'll make an exception and promote you to sales manager, replacing Fang Jinyang. What do you think?"

...

After leaving Sun Teng's office, Jiang Can took several deep breaths to calm her racing heart.

She patted her face, her brow furrowed, her mind blank and confused.

She hadn't been in the workforce long, and she handled everything instinctively. She couldn't figure out what Sun Teng was thinking, what game he was playing, or whether she was a pawn or cannon fodder.

The lure of a sales manager position was huge, and she also felt that developing the Central City market was a very challenging job.

But is this an opportunity or a danger?

Jiang Can sighed, wanting to return to her workstation to think things over, when a person walked towards her, letting out a cold laugh.
