Chapter 101 Meeting an Old Friend

Who would say that he was going to be poached in front of the big boss?

Lin You was not afraid at all, with a gleam in his eyes, he smiled and said:

"Did you forget one thing at that time? The person who was in my bed just now was not a big boss."

Shi Jingyuan: “…”

The next morning, Lin You formally submitted his resignation to the human resources department.

Chen Lingling was even more excited than her. She shook her hands and looked like she was about to cry. If the department manager hadn't glared at her fiercely, she might have pulled Lin You to celebrate immediately.

After leaving the Human Resources Department, Lin You went to Manager Hu’s office again.

When Manager Hu heard that she was going to resign, he didn't say anything for a long time.

The middle-aged man had seen too many farewells in the workplace. Although his reaction was not as big as Chen Lingling's, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Xiao Lin, I thought you were going to take over my job in the future. After all, I'm going to retire in a few years. I didn't expect... you'd leave just like that."

Manager Hu held his thermos cup and sighed, "With you gone, our logistics department doesn't even have anyone you can use. My life will be difficult from now on."

Perhaps because his expression and movements were a little exaggerated, Lin You couldn't help but laugh.

"Manager Hu, it's not as exaggerated as you say. Jiajia and the others can handle things on their own."

Manager Hu really couldn't bear to part with his capable assistant, but he couldn't let himself hinder Lin You's personal development, so even though he was reluctant, he still gave her his final blessing.

"No matter what, I brought you up. If you do well in the future, it will be a credit to me. If you don't...it's okay. At worst, you can just come back to me. I, Old Hu, will still take care of you."

Lin You smiled, "Thank you, Manager Hu."

Manager Hu: "I was planning to treat you and Xiao Cheng to a meal. Now that you're gone, I don't know if we'll have another chance."

Manager Hu has been very kind to her over the past two years. Lin You, thinking of this kindness, hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll ask him right away when he's free."

Before leaving, she still wanted to arrange the meal that Manager Hu had been longing for.

When she called, Cheng Hao had just finished a meeting.

After listening to her explanation of the situation, Cheng Hao agreed without hesitation.

It’s better to do it today, so let’s set the time for tonight.

Lin You told Manager Hu the news. Manager Hu was so happy that he smiled and immediately arranged for someone to contact the restaurant for the party.

In the KSH Group conference room, Shi Jingyuan sat in the main seat and listened to this quarter's financial report.

Halfway through the meeting, He Xuan hurriedly walked in with his cell phone.

In such an important meeting, if it was not extremely urgent, He Xuan would definitely not come in and interrupt.

Shi Jingyuan frowned slightly, signaled others to continue, and took the phone from He Xuan.

The caller ID shows "Shi Lao".

Shi Jingyuan hesitated for a moment, stood up and left the meeting room, and called out softly at the end of the corridor.

"grandfather."

Although he was over 70 years old, his voice was full of energy and he would roar angrily as soon as he answered the phone.

"You bastard! Our Shi family hasn't even handed over all the power to you yet, and you already have no idea of your place?"

Shi Jingyuan was baffled by the scolding and asked in a deep voice, "Grandpa, what happened? Can you at least let me die with a clear conscience?"

Shi Lao snorted coldly, "Let me ask you, when are you getting married?"

Shi Jingyuan was stunned for a moment, then took out a cigarette and lit it.

"Grandpa, why are you suddenly talking about this? Didn't you say that you wouldn't talk about marriage until my career is stable?"

Shi Lao was furious. "That's because I thought you knew your limits! How could I have imagined that you would dare to keep such a mess around?"

"A messy person?" Shi Jingyuan took a deep drag on his cigarette and asked coldly, "What do you mean?"

Shi Lao: "Come back to the old house right now! Tell it to my face!"

Mr. Shi hung up the phone without giving Shi Jingyuan a chance to refuse.

He Xuan stood in the distance, not knowing what Shi Jingyuan and Shi Lao said on the phone. He saw Shi Jingyuan put down the phone and then walked over.

Shi Jingyuan ordered: "The meeting is suspended. The remaining reports will continue tomorrow."

After a pause, he ordered again: "Prepare the car, I will go back to the old house immediately."

The Shi family's old house is not close to the city center, about an hour's drive away.

Shi Jingyuan sat in the back seat, his eyes fixed on the window, but his thoughts drifted far away.

He was playing with his phone when he suddenly looked up and said to He Xuan, "Find someone to check who the old man has been in contact with these days."

He Xuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."

Manager Hu really spent a lot of money to treat Cheng Hao to dinner.

After get off work, Lin You took Manager Hu's car to a very famous seafood restaurant. Another meaning of famous is that it is very expensive.

"Manager Hu, there's no need to book such a luxurious room. Cheng Hao won't mind."

Lin You said softly.

Manager Hu waved his hands repeatedly, "It's easy to be polite. Xiao Cheng helped me a lot this time. Don't worry about these things. I'm a manager after all. I'm not short of money."

Lin You: “…Oh.”

The two entered the restaurant one after the other and sat at a window seat under the guidance of the waiter.

Before Cheng Hao arrived, Manager Hu asked Lin to order first.

Lin You took the menu and was a little hesitant to buy after seeing the prices on it.

She returned the menu to Manager Hu and said, "Please order."

"Look at your little potential. If you go to work somewhere else in the future, don't be so honest. People who understand you know that you are saving money for others, but those who don't know you will think you are petty."

Manager Hu gave earnest advice. Although his words were not pleasant to the ears, every word showed genuine concern.

Lin You responded, "Yeah, I remember that."

She has always been obedient and Manager Hu has always been satisfied with her, so he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Just after we ordered the dishes, Cheng Hao said that he was at the door.

Lin You volunteered to go and take it. As soon as she stood up, before she had time to leave her seat, a cup of cold tea was splashed on her face.

It happened so suddenly that no one could react.

Lin You raised her head with water dripping down her cheeks. When she saw who was standing in front of her, her face was full of shock.

Those hysterical memories suddenly broke open the valve and rushed out.

"Ah, Auntie..."

Lin You's voice couldn't help but tremble.

Standing in front of her was a woman in her fifties. She was wearing an exquisite cheongsam and a jade necklace with a rich texture around her neck. Her every move and gesture exuded the grace of a lady.

Chen Qin said sternly, "Who is your aunt? Are you worthy of calling me that?"

After she finished speaking, she glanced in the direction of Manager Hu, and her smile became more disdainful.

"My poor son, he never saw your true face until he died!"

"You don't even let an old man like this go. Lin You, ah Lin You, when you look in the mirror and see your own despicable appearance, don't you feel disgusted?"
