Chapter 106 Fortune Turns Around
After crossing a traffic light, Xu Qingmin stopped the car.
"Yilin, you're not short of money right now, and Bai Guanqun doesn't need that house. What's bothering you?"
"Bai Menglan killed the old lady. I don't want her to kill the old lady and then so easily get the old lady's house. There's no such logic in this world. But the old lady knew that her daughter was going to kill her, but she was still willing to take that medicine. So, even though she was killed by her daughter, the old lady's last wish was to give the house to Bai Menglan. I don't know whether to follow my own heart or respect the old lady's last wish."
"Give the house to Bai Menglan."
Song Yilin asked in surprise, "Why?"
"When you asked me, you already had the answer in your heart. More than your sense of fairness, you wanted the old lady to rest in peace."
Song Yilin leaned back in her seat: "Okay, let's drive."
Just then, Xiao Zhang called her.
I reported to Song Yilin about Ke Qu's mother's case; the first-instance verdict has been delivered.
He was ordered to pay 50,000 yuan in economic compensation and apologize to the old lady.
But the old lady has already passed away; who can she apologize to?
Song Yilin felt a pang of sorrow: "Xiao Zhang, have Ke Qu and Ke Qu's mother go to the old lady's grave tomorrow to apologize."
The next day, Song Yilin, her mother-in-law, and Ms. Meng waited early at the cemetery. When the appointed time arrived, Ke Qu and his mother indeed came.
However, Ke's mother looked unwilling; she had been dragged there by Ke Qusheng.
Ke Qu also brought a bouquet of flowers and placed it in front of the old lady's grave.
I solemnly said to the old lady, "I'm sorry."
He then pulled his mother, signaling her to apologize.
Mrs. Ke slowly stepped forward: "Grandma Bai, I'm sorry."
Song Yilin didn't make things difficult for them, nor did she care about Ke's mother's attitude. The old lady was no longer there, so there was no point in making things difficult for them.
Ms. Meng made a lot of sarcastic remarks, but Song Yilin and the others went.
Song Yilin tidied up the cemetery and then went back.
Bai Guanqun went to class as usual, and Song Yilin went to work as usual. The only difference was that the three elderly people in apartment 602 had become two elderly people.
ENN Group's new energy business officially opened, with the first store in Binzhou City. Song Yilin and Shi Chen specially flew to Binzhou City to attend the opening ceremony.
Along the way, Shichen reported to her on the progress of the new energy business.
Xiao Zhang was taking notes with a pen on the side.
Song Yilin would promptly point out any points of doubt.
Shi Chen is a person with a good mindset. No matter what questions or loopholes Song Yilin raises, even if he can't solve them immediately, he can calmly say, "I'll make a note of this issue and deal with it later."
Xiao Zhang will also record the questions raised by Song Yilin, and she will need to follow up on whether Shichen has resolved the issues.
After reporting the situation, Song Yilin indicated that they should rest, as they had gone directly to the scene as soon as they landed and would be quite tired.
When Song Yilin woke up, the plane had already landed.
Binzhou is a bit colder than Jianghai City, and Xiao Zhang thoughtfully put a coat on her.
Song Yilin joked, "Our Xiao Zhang is becoming more and more virtuous."
Shi Chen also said, "Indeed, I wonder which lucky man is able to marry our Xiao Zhang."
Xiao Zhang said angrily, "I'm not getting married. My value isn't in getting married."
"I was wrong to say that, I deserve to be hit."
They played around and arrived at the new store. When the store was being built, Song Yilin didn't have time to come and take a look, because the Shichen brand was always flying around.
However, since she had used the time, she believed in its power.
Along the way, Shichen introduced Song Yilin to the local income, resident population, and pillar industries of Binzhou.
These are the things that determine the size of a market in a place.
Looking at the few new energy vehicle 4S stores in the area, Song Yilin asked Shi Chen, "What support policies does Binzhou have for new energy vehicles?"
Shi Chen paused for a moment, then immediately realized what was happening: "Wait a minute, I'll check right now."
Shi Chen checked his phone for a while and replied, "Not yet."
"In the future, in addition to local income, resident population, and pillar industries, we need to check local policies, make good use of them, and encourage the general manager of the Binzhou New Energy Store to communicate more with the local automobile industry association to promote local policy support."
Shi Chen took out his notebook and wrote: "Okay, I'll take care of it right away."
Immediately, Shichen went to communicate.
At the opening of the new store, Song Yilin, as the CEO of Xu's Xin'ao Group, went on stage and said a few words.
Then, we briefly met some of the key personnel at this new energy vehicle store.
The general manager of the new energy store was also a capable person. He introduced his men to Song Yilin with great insight, and Song Yilin nodded, indicating that she had gotten to know them.
In the evening, I invited the store's general manager and key staff to dinner.
Song Yilin dislikes people who boast, and the atmosphere at the table was lively, with the general manager of the New Energy Store No. 1 in charge.
Song Yilin suddenly remembered how she used to try to please Xu Qingmin. She was the one who livened up the atmosphere when she was with Xu Qingmin at Qinghu Restaurant.
Not long after, she became the person sitting at the head table.
But she has paid a great price to get to this position today.
She attended various dinner parties, met different people, enrolled in a top-tier executive program to study business administration, finance, and marketing—she learned everything related to 4S dealerships.
When she was learning these things before, Wang Qianqian joked, "If you don't become a general manager in the future, you'll be letting down all your hard work."
Her efforts have yielded some results so far, but it's far from enough. Perhaps Chen Yan understands her situation.
Perhaps they really are the same kind of people, which is why they sensed the same thing when they first met.
She's in a position of power now, and she's experienced a lot of hardship and grievances herself. Suddenly, she doesn't want to see the people below her go through the same thing.
"Everyone, please feel free to be at ease and don't be so formal."
Song Yilin pushed the time aside: "You too, you're the person in the group who has stayed in Binzhou the longest, so set a good example and don't lead the way in creating so much drinking culture. Let's just have fun today, everyone can do as they please. If you like to drink, drink more; if you don't, you don't have to force yourself to drink with me."
Song Yilin's drinking prowess is well-known in the company, and Shi Chen even specially invited two other heavy drinkers over.
Song Yilin didn't drink much today, and the dinner party ended quickly.
When Song Yilin returned to the hotel, she went to the hotel's music bar to get some fresh air and unexpectedly ran into Shi Chen there.
Song Yilin took a wine glass and brought it to Shi Chen's side: "Mr. Shi, why can't you sleep?"
Having had a few drinks, and in this kind of setting where the time wasn't so formal, I felt much more relaxed.
However, he was still a little reserved in front of Song Yilin.
"Mr. Shi, you're not like the person I first met at all. What happened?"
After drinking a glass of wine, Shi Chen said, "I suddenly feel a bit of pressure, afraid that I won't do a good job."
Song Yilin chuckled: "Is President Shi questioning my judgment?"
