Chapter 1 Who is the white moonlight who cheated on the big boss?
Inside the Shangri-La Hotel in Singapore, Xu Qingmin returned to the presidential suite after a business dinner. Just as he was about to lie down, a seductive figure appeared on the bed. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was actually a man.
Xu Qingmin pinched the bridge of the nose, lifted the delicate-looking man by the back of the neck, went to Gu Sinan's room, and threw the man inside. Then he took out a wet wipe and wiped his hands.
"Gu Sinan, enjoy it yourself."
Gu Sinan looked at Xu Qingmin wiping his hands carefully and said with disdain, "Xu Qingmin, when are you going to get rid of this germaphobia?"
"I'm not a germaphobe, I just dislike dirty things."
Gu Sinan gestured for the refined-looking man to leave.
With a grin, he said to Xu Qingmin, "Qingmin, this really wasn't my idea. Your sister said that since you don't like women, she wants me to prepare a man for you."
“There’s nothing wrong with my sexual orientation. I don’t have a girlfriend because I haven’t met the right one. Stop gossiping about me with my sister.” Xu Qingmin said and turned to leave Gu Sinan’s room.
Gu Sinan teased from behind, "Song Yilin has been married for over ten years, aren't you tired of playing the devoted lover role?"
Xu Qingmin's back stiffened for a moment, then he strode away.
He hadn't heard that name for many years, and he had almost forgotten that the woman's name was Song Yilin.
Deep affection? He simply dislikes women.
——
Summers in Yishi are much more comfortable than in many other cities. Many people have the stereotype that summers are more uncomfortable in the south, but summers in Yishi are not hot and humid, with a gentle sea breeze, making it a tourist city with mild winters and cool summers.
Summer is the peak season for the automotive industry in most cities, but it is the off-season for the automotive industry in Yishi. The sales consultant in the store is drinking milk tea and organizing documents.
Even during the off-season when things aren't so busy, the boss still likes to keep employees in a wolf-like state at all times, so employees have to maintain a high level of work energy even during afternoon tea time.
"Yilin, your child's summer vacation is almost over, right?"
General Manager Wang Yide usually calls Song Yilin to his office for anything, but today he's unusually in the mood to come to her office.
Song Yilin warmly stood up and pulled out a chair for Wang Yide: "Oh, Mr. Wang, you've arrived. Please have a seat."
Song Yilin's office is on the first floor of the 4S store, making it convenient to observe the store's sales situation. The 4S store where Song Yilin works is a luxury brand, and she occasionally needs to receive customers. The administration provided her office with a set of high-end Kung Fu tea set, and Song Yilin skillfully brewed a pot of tea for Wang Yide.
My child will be starting junior high next semester.
Song Yilin's age is quite interesting. In this era where late marriage is popular, most of her peers are still unmarried, and her child is already in junior high school.
Mr. Wang suddenly remarked, "It's good to have children early. I'm a few years older than you, and your child is already in middle school. I even went to my son's kindergarten for a parent-child activity a while ago."
"That means you're still young, Mr. Wang. I got married young, which messed up my life trajectory. I haven't had it as smooth as you."
Wang Yide was used to Song Yilin's flattering manner. People who have been in sales for a long time almost all have this habit of speaking, and they address everyone with "you" (formal).
However, Song Yilin is now the second-in-command of the store, and she is only so respectful to him. Song Yilin is the type to say one thing to one person and another to someone else.
"Yilin, you're from Jianghai City, right?"
"Yes, it's been many years since I've been back."
“A few days ago, the boss said that the general manager of the Jianghai store is pregnant, and the position will become vacant. I recommended you to the boss, and now I'm asking for your opinion. Do you want to go back to Jianghai City? Is it convenient for your family?”
Song Yilin served as the sales director for three years at the Yishi store. As long as Wang Yide didn't retire, she wouldn't have a chance to become the general manager. In the automotive industry, the ultimate goal in one's career is to become the general manager, and everyone wants to climb that ladder.
Song Yilin comes from a special family, a matrilineal family, with her mother, mother-in-law, great-grandmother, and daughter. The burden of the family rests entirely on her shoulders, so she will definitely seize any opportunity. The position of general manager of a luxury car dealership can offer a challenging annual salary of one million.
Song Yilin immediately said to General Manager Wang Yide, "Thank you for the recommendation, Mr. Wang. My family is fine. As you know, my family is very supportive of my career."
"The boss's idea is that after you go to the Jianghai store, you will have a three-month probation period where you will compete with Wang Xiasheng, the current after-sales director of the Jianghai store. After three months, if you are not hired as the general manager, you will stay at the Jianghai store and will still be the sales director."
Wang Yide remembers that when Song Yilin first joined Xin'ao Auto 4S store, she was only 23 years old. At that time, her child was just over one year old. As soon as her child was weaned, she went out to work to earn money for her husband's medical treatment. It was not easy for a woman to support a family.
Song Yilin, a widow, rose from sales assistant to sales director, transforming from an introverted and quiet young woman into a shrewd and experienced salesperson. The aura she exuded after years of workplace experience was more authoritative than that of the general manager.
But as her abilities became more and more apparent, his position began to become precarious. It wasn't that he felt Song Yilin's abilities surpassed his.
From the boss's perspective, if Song Yilin is capable of serving as general manager and the store is profitable, the boss will definitely fire him and promote Song Yilin, because if he leaves, he can receive less of the group's dividends.
Therefore, Song Yilin must leave.
For Song Yilin, she has never been afraid of competition; a 50% chance is worth a try.
Two hours after General Manager Wang Yide left, the administrative transfer document was issued.
For a car dealership, the most crucial position is the general manager, followed by the sales director. The general manager is usually promoted from the sales director. Given her outstanding performance at the Yishi store, it's clear to everyone that Song Yilin is on her way to becoming the general manager.
With such a major personnel change, people below started to gossip, but the topic of their discussion was a bit off.
Sales consultant Chen Yanxi said, "Sister Qian, I remember you're also from Jianghai, right? How many years has it been since you've been back to Jianghai City?"
Wang Qianqian put down her phone and thought for a moment: "It's been four or five years, hasn't it? What, you want to go to Jianghai City with President Song?"
Chen Yanxi waved her hand and said, "No, my home is in Yishi. I can't leave even if I want to. I just heard that the Xu family in Jianghai City is very powerful, right? There's a saying that the Xu family can do whatever they want in Jianghai City."
Although Wang Qianqian hadn't been back for many years, she had heard about what was happening in Jianghai City.
"It's just a rumor, but his family is indeed very rich. Ten years ago, they were just an ordinary real estate developer, not even a big name in Jianghai City. In the last ten years, after the new leader took office, they have been involved in more and more fields, and they are all very profitable. That's why there is this saying that Jianghai City belongs to the Xu family. It's a bit of an exaggeration."
Speaking of the new leader, Chen Yanxi became even more excited and said, "I heard that the new leader, Xu Qingmin, has never believed in love since he was cheated on by his first love, is that right?"
"I don't know if it's true or not, but this saying has always been around."
"Do you think that first love, seeing Xu Qingmin's great achievements, will regret cheating on him? If I met a man like that, I would be too busy treating him like royalty, how could I possibly cheat on him?"
Just when Song Yilin thought the focus of gossip had shifted to the prominent figures in Jianghai City, the topic suddenly changed and became somewhat related to her.
