Jiang Tian, a renowned渣女 (scorned woman/player) in her lifetime with countless boyfriends, was recruited by the Main God after her death to become an invincible host for the Female Lead group.<...
The other party's words were truly laughable.
He's been an employee for over ten years, and yet he still gets pointed at and treated sarcastically.
But Cheng Yize couldn't smile at all.
100,000; he didn't even get such a low price when he was an intern.
His initial high level of affection for Jiang Tian suddenly dropped significantly.
But after the company went bankrupt, he didn't receive a single job offer. If he doesn't seize this opportunity, is he really going to just wait to die?
Other companies, even small ones, were unwilling to hire him because they thought he was too old, but at least this company was still willing to take him in.
He's doing a job in a field he's familiar with, but the pay is a bit lower. So, should he accept it or not?
Cheng Yize knew very well that the value he had created for this company was definitely more than 100,000, but he had no choice now, no one wanted him.
After much deliberation and sleepless nights, Cheng Yize finally gritted his teeth and accepted the offer.
Something is better than nothing. He can keep looking for something better while he's still employed. If he stays at home any longer, he'll really drive himself crazy.
He is an extreme person at heart. If he hadn't received this offer, he might have completely fallen into depravity and wouldn't even be able to live like a human being.
So this job is a chance for him.
"Welcome to our family. Work hard, and we won't treat you unfairly."
Cheng Yize looked at Jiang Tian and shook hands with him.
He's back to being a low-level employee, and the company's pay has forced him to move to an even worse place to rent so he can at least eat.
As for his parents, Cheng Yize simply couldn't afford to support them anymore.
With a salary of 10,000, he can barely make ends meet, let alone support an elderly couple.
“I will give you the most basic living allowance. You can go back to your hometown first and come back when I have money. If you insist on making me grind grain for you, or even not have enough to eat, then I will expose your situation in the village group. Then the whole village will watch the show and know that you are trying to force your son to his death. Would that make you happy?”
Cheng Yize sometimes really doesn't know what his relationship with this couple is. They are parents and son. Why don't the parents understand their son at all?
However, he successfully replicated this pattern with his own children. He originally thought he loved his son, but after his son left with his ex-wife, he never thought to call and ask. Now he realizes that he still loves his son very much.
His parents were terrified. How could someone who was most afraid of losing face be destitute in his old age? They could make up a lie for the villagers, but they could never let their son say it out loud. They couldn't bear the shame.
After the couple left, Cheng Yize officially became a slave to the company, doing the same amount of work as before, but earning only one-tenth of his previous salary. However, he continued to work there.
"I really didn't expect you to be willing to take him in."
Zhou Xiaoyu joked with a smile.
“Others might not want to hire him because of his age, but I know he’s actually very suitable to be a worker. I’m quite comfortable letting him do the work. Anyway, he has nowhere to go now. Our company has been reorganized and it’s a prestigious enterprise. It’s much better than him working in some obscure corner.”
Jiang Tian did not hide her pride in being reduced to a laborer for very little pay; as long as the donkey could pull the millstone, that was enough.
Chen Qingxuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, he will definitely work his hardest. He is a very insecure person, and he hides his insecurity very well, but it is not impossible to find out. In order to prove himself, he will work for you with his life. You have made the right choice in spending this money."
"That's right. Who am I? The three of us will all be big bosses in the future. I can't hold you back."
Zhou Xiaoyu and Chen Qingxuan both laughed.
The three women have long since developed the habit of getting together from time to time to chat. After all, they have achieved economic and spiritual independence, and no one can restrain them anymore.
"How is your son?" Zhou Xiaoyu turned to ask Chen Qingxuan.
After Chen Qingxuan's son was brought back, he developed a lot of bad habits and became a child that everyone disliked.
If Chen Qingxuan hadn't been soft-hearted and maternal, believing she needed to be responsible for the child, many people would have advised her to just let him stay with his grandparents. They argued that raising such a wicked child would be painful for any normal person.
"We've spent a lot of money hiring education experts to correct his behavior. His values haven't fully formed yet, so there's still room for improvement. I'm just trying to avoid seeing him and worrying about him. The education experts are doing a good job of coaxing him, and he's gradually correcting himself. I just hope that when he grows up, he can be a normal person, not cause trouble, and not make people frown when they see him."
When her son was mentioned, Chen Qingxuan's smile became less pronounced.
She admitted that her feelings for her son were not as deep as her feelings for her daughter, and that her daughter was really good and she loved her very much.
Well, when a woman has two children, there will always be some bias. She had already suffered enough from the preference for sons over daughters and felt guilty towards her daughter. Later, seeing how well her daughter behaved and the two of them spent several years together, their relationship naturally deepened.
Even Chen Qingxuan's parents, although they only have her as their daughter, sometimes have ideas that feel like they are influenced by feudal dregs.
When they talk about their daughters, they think daughters are more important than sons, but when advising other relatives, they subconsciously think it's better to have a son.
Chen Qingxuan had initially thought the couple would be fond of the newborn child, but it was clear they still loved their granddaughter more. As the saying goes, everyone has a heart.
They couldn't possibly continue to show favoritism towards their grandson, who had already enjoyed all the benefits of their relationship; that would be so unfair to the older sister.
Moreover, the elderly couple actually disliked their grandson quite a bit, since he had been taught to be very impolite from childhood and had never learned how to be polite.
Who wouldn't hate a kid like that?
Feelings develop over time, and Chen Qingxuan had already decided that her daughter would definitely receive a larger share of the inheritance.
There was nothing she could do; when she divorced her ex-husband, her son readily went to live with his grandparents, ignoring even his mother.
Since her son is entitled to her inheritance, Chen Qingxuan will naturally give him money.
That will happen after he has been reformed.
A bad person will only become worse if they take money. Chen Qingxuan didn't have time to give her son any more loving education. Her company was expanding rapidly, and she planned to open a new company. The success of her career finally made her feel the joy from the depths of her soul.
Chen Qingxuan could no longer compromise for anyone. Her soul had already guided her to find the direction of what she should do as a person.
The three women chatted about other things, and the atmosphere was surprisingly harmonious and lighthearted.
At this point, Zhou Xiaoyu raised another question—
Will you get married again in the future?
