I once wanted to be a good person.
But when I was scammed out of 800 yuan in referral fees while looking for a job, I vowed to be a smart person.
Later, I was completely fooled by that scumbag Xu Weiwei, and I realized that I couldn't be a smart person, so I wanted to be a rich person.
When I tried to become a rich person, I found that I had to lose my dignity first.
But this loss of dignity is too utter.
Last night, it was already embarrassing enough that Mei Xiaoting helped me pee.
But now I feel even more ashamed.
I drew a very, very big map on this pristine white sheet.
Zhang Xinrui, Zhang Xinai, and the nurses who had just arrived all gaped in astonishment upon seeing this.
Before I could react, Mei Xiaoting opened the door with breakfast in her hand.
Four women stood by my bed, staring at my steaming map with expressions of disbelief, and my eyes dimmed.
[I, Chen Zhe, will live my life as a person with dignity!!]
...
The two Zhang sisters went back home, and they gave me sympathetic looks as they left.
I felt that the look was like someone looking at a pitiful wretch and an idiot.
Although the nurse didn't smile, she took out her phone when she turned around.
I can imagine that she was talking about this in her work group or on her social media.
[A moron drew a map on his bed, and then four women caught him...]
Perhaps the title will look like this.
Mei Xiaoting held back her laughter until they had all left.
Not long after, the nurse came to change the sheets.
I was deeply impressed by her strange eyes; it felt like she was comparing me to those seventy- or eighty-year-old men.
The tap wouldn't turn off even when I was in my early twenties.
My reputation is probably ruined.
...
Mei Xiaoting struggled to suppress her laughter, and patted Chen Zhe on the shoulder; "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone!"
Chen Zhe stared blankly at her.
Her sly smile clearly indicated that she was already planning how to tell people about this.
"Sister Mei, if you dare to tell me, I'll share what happened last night too!"
Mei Xiaoting was stunned for a moment, then slapped Chen Zhe on the head.
"You brat, how dare you threaten me?!"
"I'm not afraid of anything now. If you dare to say it, I'll go all out!"
"Alright, alright! Promise not to tell, okay?"
"Swear it!!"
"Chen Zhe, are you ever going to stop?"
...
In the afternoon, Hu Ling and Lin Meiyu arrived.
Lin Meiyu's concern was palpable; "Chen Zhe, how could you be so foolish? That was an armed thug! You can't do that again!"
In order to win her favor again, Chen Zhe decided to tell a little lie. The lie was a bit cheesy, but he knew that after telling it, he would definitely gain more favor in Lin Meiyu's heart.
Chen Zhe looked at Lin Meiyu with sincere eyes; "Sister Lin, I acted impulsively this time, but if it had been you who was in that situation, I definitely would have rushed forward without hesitation!"
Lin Meiyu was so moved she almost cried.
"Pah, pah! What nonsense are you talking about? I want you to be well, and please don't do anything foolish again!"
"Sister Lin, I'm so touched that you still came to see me despite your busy work schedule."
"You brat! I was terrified when I saw you covered in blood! I haven't slept well for the past two days!"
After exchanging a few heartfelt words with Chen Zhe, Lin Meiyu left because she had other business to attend to at the company. Mei Xiaoting saw her off.
At this moment, only Chen Zhe and Hu Ling were in the room.
Hu Ling pulled up a stool and sat down to one side.
He suddenly burst out laughing.
Chen Zhe felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze.
"Um... Sister Hu, I'm a little sleepy..."
"Hehe, you little rascal, don't pretend in front of me. Sister Lin was a bit flustered just now and might not have noticed, but I saw it clearly. I really didn't realize before that you have a way with people. Before we came, Sister Lin was complaining to me that you risked your life for another woman. Women are petty, and she was a little bothered by it. But what you said just now moved her to tears. You really are a talent."
"Well...hehe, Sister Hu is teasing me, I didn't think that much of it..."
Hu Ling saw right through him, and Chen Zhe felt a little embarrassed.
Hu Ling crossed her beautiful legs, clad in black stockings, and gently swayed them in front of me.
"Chen Zhe, you've done something big this time, making the Zhang family owe you a lot. I've also benefited a bit because of what you did. I won't pursue the matter of the gold shop anymore. After you recover, I plan to give you a raise."
Chen Zhe's eyes lit up when he heard about the pay raise, but then he thought about it again and said something nice.
“Sister Hu, this is what I should do. I work under you. You taught us that customers are our everything. I would not regret it even if I lost my life to protect them.”
Hu Ling raised an eyebrow.
"Hey kid, you're more enlightened than me, not bad, not bad. Whether you mean it sincerely or just saying it to flatter me, I'm definitely giving you a raise this time. We were talking about 700,000 or 800,000 before, but now I'm doubling your base salary to 1.5 million a year!"
Chen Zhe was dumbfounded.
He subconsciously reached out and started counting.
"One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand..."
He wanted to count how many zeros were in 1.5 million.
Seeing his comical appearance, even the usually serious Hu Ling couldn't help but laugh.
This smile wasn't the fake professional smile you give to clients; it was a genuine, heartfelt laugh.
"Silly boy, no wonder Sister Lin likes you so much. Stop counting and just focus on recovering here. This is considered a work injury, so the company will cover all your medical expenses and lost wages during this period. In addition, I will give you a reward for your act of bravery."
"Thank you, Sister Hu. If I'm going to get a bonus, could you please include Sister Mei in it?"
"Huh? Why?"
"Because Sister Mei has been taking good care of me these past few days, she's only been able to get a few hours of sleep a day."
Hu Ling looked at Chen Zhe with some surprise.
After looking at him for several seconds, I realized that what he said was actually true.
"You silly boy, you have a kind heart. Okay, I promise you. I will remember Xiaoting's contribution. You don't need to worry. As long as you work hard for me and serve our clients, I, Hu Ling, will not treat you unfairly."
"Sister Hu is so generous!"
"Alright, stop flattering me. I have a lot of things to take care of at the company, so I'm going back now. Xiaoting can stay here and take care of you. If you need anything, just tell her."
"Okay, Sister Hu, take care, Sister Hu!"
...
After leaving the ward, Hu Ling found Mei Xiaoting standing at the door waiting for her.
Hu Ling glanced at her.
"Did you go for a smoke just now?"
Mei Xiaoting nodded shyly.
"Take a break for now. Chen Zhe is a patient; don't let him smell your cigarettes."
Mei Xiaoting nodded and said obediently, "Understood."
Did you hear our conversation just now?
Mei Xiaoting continued to nod.
What do you think of Chen Zhe?
"He's fine."
"How is it good?"
"She is articulate, capable, and quite humane, with strong personal abilities."
"Your evaluation is quite high. I basically agree with what you said, but this kid might still be a bit naive. You should mentor him more in the future. He's a good prospect and can be nurtured further."
Mei Xiaoting was slightly shocked when she heard this. She knew that Sister Hu would not say such things easily. Now that she had said it, it meant that she would support Chen Zhe in the future. Sister Hu's business was not limited to bars and clubs. She also had other companies.
Her saying this implies that Chen Zhe will be moving towards a leadership position in the future.
In the past, the first requirement for entering leadership positions was loyalty, followed by a very high level of education, and then a wealth of experience.
Mei Xiaoting herself is a graduate of a prestigious university.
After working at the grassroots level for many years, Sister Hu finally gave her this opportunity. Now, Chen Zhe has only been here for a short time, but she has already gained Sister Hu's full appreciation and trust.
This person is extraordinary; his future prospects are immeasurable.
"Yes! I know what to do."
Hu Ling nodded; "Don't worry, you and he are on different paths, there's no conflict between you. What I need is for you to be united, understand?"
"yes!"
"Well, I won't stay here any longer. I have to go back. I might have to go out for a while. Could you arrange for someone to come up and manage the bar and club for you temporarily? Do you have a suitable candidate?"
This statement was giving Mei Xiaoting the opportunity to train her own subordinates, and Mei Xiaoting felt somewhat grateful.
"Xu Xiaomei is fine."
"Okay, you can do whatever you want. I'm leaving now!"
"Take care, Sister Hu!"
