Chapter 28 Blind Date
Xu Qingmin quietly smoked a cigarette by the sea.
Today, Song Yilin appeared in a red outfit, her curvaceous figure and radiant face captivating all who beheld her.
She was poised and elegant at the party, like a red lotus flower blooming alone in that filthy world of fame and fortune.
In the few short minutes that Chen Yan had her taken away, he felt as if a hundred claws were scratching at his heart, and his mind was in turmoil.
He searched desperately for her, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her emerge unharmed.
I only saw Song Yilin briefly a few times, but she's been on my mind these past few days.
His rational mind, when it encounters Song Yilin, leads him to do some irrational things.
Song Yilin asked him why, and he also wanted to know why.
He was also curious as to why he was entangled with a married woman, even though her relationship with her husband was open.
He also wanted to know whether he really wanted to get revenge on Song Yilin, or just wanted to see her.
In the end, he couldn't bear to put her in a difficult position, so he instructed Li Muzi via phone to find a time to order those hundred cars. They would need to be ordered sooner or later, and the year was almost over; it was time to give the employees some benefits.
Back at the main house of Haoshan Villa, Mu Yunzi was squatting at his door. Because he had warned her not to enter his house, she didn't dare to go in.
He said with a look of disgust, "What are you doing here?"
"You took Song Yilin to the party?"
"That's not your question."
"She hurt you so much before, can't you still forget her?"
"Didn't you deliberately let me meet her the first time we met? What are you pretending to be kind for now?"
Mu Yunzi's words were stuck in her throat. She had asked Xu Qingmin to see Song Yilin to make him give up, but she didn't expect that not only would he not give up, but now it seemed that he wanted to make a move on a married woman.
What is it about Song Yilin that makes a woman so devoted to her for over a decade?
······
Song Yilin doesn't need to set an alarm clock at home; her mother-in-law and grandmother get up very early every day.
While eating breakfast, my mother-in-law seemed hesitant to speak.
"Mother-in-law, what's on your mind again? Just tell me."
The mother-in-law put down her chopsticks and took out her phone: "Um, this is a company executive, from our neighborhood, the same age as you, divorced, but without children. You can take a look if you'd like."
Her mother-in-law wanted to introduce her to someone again, and Song Yilin sighed. She replied perfunctorily, "Mother-in-law, I know. I'll add him on WeChat later. I'm going to be late for work, so I have to go now."
If she can't win an argument, she can always slip away; that's always been her strategy. When she got to the parking space, her mother was waiting for her by the car.
She knew it wouldn't be that simple, so she attacked from both sides.
"Linlin, you should listen to your mother-in-law and go on blind dates."
"Mom, don't you know what's going on even if others don't? Who will take care of my mother-in-law and grandmother now that I'm married?"
Song Yilin opened the car door to leave, and her mother got into the car directly.
“I took your mother-in-law to dialysis a few days ago. The doctor said her condition was not good and she wanted to give up treatment. She wanted to entrust her grandmother to my care.”
Song Yilin stopped driving: "Mom, why didn't you tell me about something so important sooner? Is there any news about the kidney donor?"
"No, your mother-in-law has a variety of illnesses. If she gets a kidney transplant, there's a possibility she'll die on the operating table or from rejection."
"In that case, I'm even less likely to go on blind dates and get married."
“In this situation, you should go even more. Find someone to marry so your mother-in-law won’t feel so guilty and can go for treatment without worry. If you don’t get married, your mother-in-law will want to die sooner so she won’t be a burden to you. As for the money, if you’re under a lot of pressure, sell the house. The house prices in Yishi should be okay. Having some money will make things easier for you. You won’t have to work so hard. Just live your life and don’t let us old folks hold you back.”
She had asked the real estate agent about the house before. Now there are so many affordable housing and subsidized housing options available, plus the location of her house and the poor neighborhood environment, so the house wouldn't fetch a good price. Besides, she had already inquired and found out that it was impossible to sell, not that she didn't want to.
However, she had previously said that the house was very valuable, showing them the current house prices in Yishi, so her mother and mother-in-law thought that the house could at least sell for more than a million.
Reality, however, is cruel.
The heavy responsibility of the family rests on her shoulders. No matter how she gets married or how much she suffers at work, she has to endure it all.
"Mom, I know. I'm going on a blind date after get off work today."
Thinking back to what Xu Qingmin said last night, life is a complete mess.
Therefore, she is determined to get this general manager position, no matter what the cost.
"Find someone to settle down with, pay off your debts, and I'll pay the rest for you."
Human life is the most difficult thing to quantify. What does it mean to "repay the debt"? As long as her mother-in-law and grandmother are alive, she will be responsible for them for the rest of her life.
Although she didn't like Bai Ye when she first married him, she grew to like him as they spent time together. He was really, really good to her.
She experienced a warmth and care from Bai Ye that she had never felt before.
When she arrived at the company, the complaint was resolved; she was fined 10,000 yuan, and the sales consultant was fined 2,000 yuan.
This fine is blatantly illegal under labor law, but at the car dealership, you can only swallow your anger.
Unlike other industries, where mistakes you make in one company might go unnoticed by others, the car dealership industry is much smaller, with different brands within the same city communicating closely with each other.
If she goes to labor arbitration because of this, she won't be able to stay at the car dealership.
As soon as the group's announcement was released, Wang Qianqian received a phone call.
"Sister Lin, I asked you to take me away, but you wouldn't. Now you're being bullied. Transfer me to the Jianghai store, and I'll fight back for you."
Wang Qianqian is the sales manager of Yishi City and also her most capable subordinate.
Wang Qianqian is from Jianghai City. Her family situation is quite complicated, so she has never liked Jianghai City. When she was transferred to the Jianghai store, she asked to come to Jianghai City with her. However, she was not stable in Jianghai City, so she did not take her with her.
"Don't worry, it's nothing. Once I'm settled, I'll reserve the sales director position for you at the Jianghai store."
"I don't care, I just need to get used to it first."
Wang Qianqian persisted, and Song Yilin couldn't stop her.
Amidst the commotion in the exhibition hall, Song Yilin's office door was suddenly flung open.
Li Ke said apologetically, "Mr. Song, I'm sorry, this gentleman insisted on seeing you."
"It's nothing, Mr. Chen. It's an honor to have you here. Please have a seat."
For customers who walk into the store naturally, the sales consultant's first responsibility is to divert the customers. Only if they really can't handle the customers will they contact Song Yilin.
Mr. Chen is not one to follow the usual path. He came in without saying anything and immediately asked to see their sales director, not even remembering Song Yilin's name.
"You're a pretty high-ranking official, it's so difficult to find you."
"Mr. Chen is always good at making fun of people. Mr. Chen, what brings you to our store?"
"I wouldn't say I'm giving advice, I just suddenly remembered that our company needs to purchase some cars, and I thought I'd ask Mr. Song for a reasonable price."
A boss as big as Chen Yan doesn't actually need to personally purchase vehicles, so his personal visit must have been for some ulterior motive.
"Thank you for your support, Mr. Chen. The price is definitely not a problem."
"Alright, thank you in advance, Director Song. Um, let's have dinner together another day."
This is President Chen's real purpose, but Song Yilin doesn't know yet what Chen Yan wanted to achieve by inviting her to this meal. It wasn't because of her as a person, but probably because of his connection with Xu Qingmin. She only knew Chen Yan because of Xu Qingmin, so he probably wanted to test her position in Xu Qingmin's heart.
"This meal should be on my behalf, how can I let you pay? Um, Li Ke, take President Chen to see the car."
Chen Yan kept smiling, his eyes following Song Yilin's figure. Finally, he casually signed his name and bought ten cars.
Song Yilin was stunned when she heard the information officer report this order. Sure enough, they were rich people; buying a car was just a matter of signing a contract.
Chen Yan ordered ten cars, and Song Yilin's sales performance immediately improved.
The general manager would share these kinds of good news in the boss's group chat.
Hopefully, the boss will have a better impression of her.
