The two drank tea and chatted.
After a while, Chen Mengyao said, "Now that you're here, I'll still help you manage Shenlong Pharmaceutical's business. As for investment, it's now a department of the group. Didn't I recommend someone to you last time? He'll be back soon. He'll be the vice president, mainly in charge of the investment department. With him around, you won't be too tired. By the way, didn't you ask me to acquire Lotte's assets last year? I've already acquired more than 40 department stores and the contracts have been signed, but there are still dozens more. They suddenly changed their minds, so the team is working with them."
"You can make the decision on this matter." Tang Xiaobao said, "Right now, I don't want to interfere with the management of the company too quickly. I'll learn from you first. However, I took a walk around this morning and found some problems."
"I guessed you weren't too happy about coming back at noon. Actually, everyone outside has a very high opinion of me, but I'm just an ordinary person. With such a large company, I can't handle everything by myself. There are too many decisions I have to make every day. I can only ensure the company's general direction is correct. There are some small details that I may not have considered, and I don't have the time to worry about. Since you said you wanted to come back, I'll give you some practice. When we have a meeting later, you can hit the ground running. Whether you can manage these people depends on how well you handle these three tricks."
"All right."
"Our company now has a fatal flaw, you must be aware of it." Chen Mengyao said.
Tang Xiaobao nodded: "You talk, I'm listening."
"The company has expanded too quickly. As you can see, all ten floors are almost full. We have at least seven or eight hundred employees at our headquarters, and we're no longer just doing pharmaceutical business; we've begun to penetrate other industries. That's why I re-registered the Shenlong Group. However, due to rapid expansion, we're seriously short of talent. Currently, we lack a lot of elite mid- and senior-level management. This level is almost gone. So, I've recently spoken with a headhunting company, and they'll gradually recruit some truly elite people for us. Only by strengthening the management team can we expand better and take each step steadily."
Tang Xiaobao was full of admiration: "You are really amazing."
"Don't flatter me all the time." Chen Mengyao said with a smile.
"Hey, this is the third time you've come close to me." She reminded Tang Xiaobao.
Tang Xiaobao smiled awkwardly: "I just want to get closer so I can hear more clearly."
"If you want to take advantage of me, just say so. Besides, haven't you taken enough advantage of me?" Chen Mengyao rolled her eyes at Tang Xiaobao.
"Ahem, by the way, are you tired lately?"
Chen Mengyao's eyes flickered: "You want to give me a massage?"
Tang Xiaobao nodded repeatedly: "You still understand me the best."
"Thank you, I don't need it. There will be fewer opportunities in the future. Anyway, now that you are here, I feel much more relaxed."
Tang Xiaobao was anxious: "Don't worry, if you keep doing this, I will have to be a hands-off boss. It doesn't matter if you are not tired. Massage more, it's good for your body."
Chen Mengyao suddenly raised her head, looked at Tang Xiaobao, and said seriously: "Really?"
Tang Xiaobao answered seriously: "Really."
"But I don't believe it." Chen Mengyao smiled.
Tang Xiaobao was about to speak when someone knocked on the door.
"Come in." Tang Xiaobao said.
Li Jing opened the door and walked in, nodded to Tang Xiaobao, and then looked at Shen Mengyao: “Boss Shen, everything is done.”
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Come and sit down." Chen Mengyao greeted warmly.
Tang Xiaobao carefully observed Li Jing's eyes and always felt that she was avoiding Chen Mengyao.
Li Jing came over and sat down.
Shen Mengyao also poured her a cup of tea.
Everyone started chatting about other things that had nothing to do with work. After a while, Chen Mengyao winked at Tang Xiaobao, stood up and said, "I still have some things to take care of."
Li Jing followed suit and tried to stand up.
Tang Xiaobao quickly said, "Li Jing, please stay for a moment. I want to talk to you about something."
Soon, only Tang Xiaobao and Li Jing were left in the room.
Li Jing felt a little uncomfortable.
Tang Xiaobao also felt uncomfortable.
Li Jing's personality is somewhat similar to Wanru's, and she is also not a talkative person.
But today, she clearly seemed to have something on her mind.
After a while, Tang Xiaobao whispered, "You've been here for almost a year, right?"
Li Jing nodded without saying anything.
“I heard from Sister Shen that you saved her several times, thank you.”
“That’s my job.”
Speechless again.
After a while, Tang Xiaobao finally made up his mind and said, "There's something I might need to discuss with you."
After hesitating for a moment, Li Jing said, "Go ahead."
For some reason, there was a sense of relief in her tone, as if she had let go of something.
"I'm going to stay in the company for a long time, and I like Sister Shen very much." Tang Xiaobao coughed.
Li Jing raised her head and glanced at Tang Xiaobao, somewhat puzzled.
This sounds a little different from what she thought. Doesn't it make any sense?
"I plan to live at Sister Shen's house, and I've brought a friend with me. Forget it, let me be frank. The person I brought is my girlfriend. You know, I'm quite a playboy, and she can't do anything but one thing, and that's martial arts. And her martial arts skills are very high. To be honest, they're much higher than yours. You will definitely not last more than three moves in her hands." Since Tang Xiaobao had already made up his mind, he spoke much bolder.
Li Jing lowered her head and said nothing.
"So, for the time being, you don't have to protect Sister Shen's safety anymore. You know, I'm still here." Tang Xiaobao said, "I know you and Sister Shen are as close as sisters, and she can't bear to leave you, but after thinking it over, I think you should go back. Thank Uncle Cao for me. I'll have the finance department transfer your salary to you, and I'll also give you a bonus."
Li Jing didn't seem surprised at all.
"good."
She actually agreed straightforwardly, still without looking up, and asked, "Can I go and complete the resignation procedures now?"
"There's no need to be so anxious." Tang Xiaobao coughed.
Li Jing stood up and said, "I understand. I'll go to the HR department now."
After saying that, she actually walked out.
Tang Xiaobao touched his nose and sighed in his heart.
Obviously, Li Jing herself already understood what was going on.
Perhaps she herself is extremely contradictory, and the current result has become a relief for her.
Passing by Chen Mengyao's office, Li Jing hesitated at the door, took a few steps and then stepped back, took a few more steps and then stepped back again.
It was about five minutes later that she knocked on the door.
The door opened, and Secretary Xiaomei was startled when she saw that it was Li Jing. She smiled and said, "Sister Li is back. Come in quickly."
Li Jing nodded at her and actually smiled.
Suddenly, Xiaomei was confused.
Normally, Li Jing never smiles. What happened today?
Xiaomei was still wondering when Chen Mengyao waved at her: "Xiaomei, please go out first."
