Chapter 113: Choose One
After watching the rain quietly for a while, Zhou Yunjie finally couldn't help but turn his head and looked at Shen Zhiyu who was smoking, "Xinglai bought the Yunding, so what we said before... still counts?"
Shen Zhiyu's slender fingers pinched the cigarette butt, and the sparks flickered in the dim light.
He was silent for a few seconds, extinguished the cigarette in the ashtray, and then looked up at her. "Have you figured out how to run the business?"
Zhou Yunjie shook his head, his long black hair swaying slightly with his movements, making him look more childish.
"No."
“I haven’t thought about it yet…” Shen Zhiyu was merciless, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth, “Giving it to you will also be a pool of stagnant water.”
Zhou Yunjie knew that what he said was true.
Although she holds the title of a top student in marketing, anyone with common sense knows that it is just a degree. She has no idea how to actually manage a mature hotel in the volatile business world.
Even if he really took over Yunding, the final result would not necessarily be much better than when it was in the hands of his father Zhou Shaoxiong.
This realization made her heart tighten and she felt even more embarrassed.
"Then...can you teach me?"
Zhou Yunjie hesitated for a moment and asked anxiously.
After waiting for a while, I heard the man's cold voice accompanied by the crackling sound of rain.
"Besides acquiring business knowledge, the quickest path to management is to get back to the business itself. Instead of learning from me, why not start from scratch yourself?"
Zhou Yunjie thought for a moment, his eyes lit up, and his voice was filled with uncontrollable joy, "You mean... I can go to Yunding to work?"
"cannot."
Shen Zhiyu's answer was crisp and clear, like a bucket of cold water poured over his head.
Zhou Yunjie's smile froze instantly, and the curve of his mouth slowly collapsed.
She pursed her lips, her fingers unconsciously stroking the blanket on her body, and muttered softly, "So what do you mean by that? There's a hint of grievance in the ending tone."
Shen Zhiyu stood up, walked to the edge of the balcony, turned around and looked at Zhou Yunjie, "One step forward, it may be a storm, you still want to choose?"
"You have to choose."
A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Zhiyu's eyes. "Yunding's management will be completely replaced, and then we'll have an internal competition. You can sign up, and whether you can get the position depends on you."
"Or, after the agreement is over, I can compensate you with the Huaihai Road store at the same price. It's up to you to choose."
In the darkness of the night, the cold wind blew raindrops onto Zhou Yunjie's face. She looked up at the man hidden in the shadows, her eyes complicated and her heart restless.
She understood what Shen Zhiyu meant.
If she chooses the former, she will have to start from scratch. It will be hard work, and the intrigues in the business world are also inevitable.
If she chose the second one, she could wait for the end of the agreement, take the money and leave, and live the rest of her life with her mother in peace.
The sound of rain grew heavier. Zhou Yunjie looked at the rain curtain in the distance, as if he saw two possible future life trajectories.
"Can I... try it?" she asked, her eyes filled with a soft pleading look.
Shen Zhiyu stared at the pitiful eyes for a few seconds and replied calmly, "It's for one year. If Yunding's revenue is not as good as it was during the same period, you will give up the store on Huaihai Road."
"Give up?" Zhou Yunjie looked at Shen Zhiyu in confusion, "You have no money left?"
Shen Zhiyu pursed his lips and said, "I promised you that I would not give you any less."
Then what else is there to worry about?
Isn't this the same as choosing one, but there's still two to come?!
Is there any need to think about it?
Zhou Yunjie's heart suddenly became clear, and he was so happy that he jumped up and threw himself on Shen Zhiyu.
"Thank you!"
The sudden momentum caught everyone off guard. Shen Zhiyu staggered two steps and grabbed Zhou Yunjie's body as he pounced on him.
The two people were instantly exposed in the rain and fog.
