Chapter 1562: Not Your Type

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After sending Ji Qingyan to Chaoyang Group, Lin Yi went to Lingyun Group.

Chaoyang Group was preparing for the annual meeting, and so was Lingyun Group. All the departments were very busy.

However, Lin Yi was a hands-off boss. With Qi Xianzhao handling these matters, it was much easier for him than for Ji Qingyan.

After arriving at the company, Qi Xianzhao went to Lin Yi’s office.

“President Lin, we’ve discussed holding this year’s annual meeting jointly with Chaoyang Group. Do you have any thoughts on this?”

“Although it’s two companies, it’s similar to dealing with just one. This arrangement works, and having more people will make it lively,” Lin Yi said.

“We should also consider inviting some celebrities. Don’t worry about the expense. With the booming short video industry, this is also a form of publicity for the company.”

“But Yuanyuan doesn’t seem interested in inviting celebrities. From what I gathered, she seems to be planning to have each department prepare performances.”

“If you don’t spend, she’ll just pocket it all anyway, and we won’t save anything in the end.”

“No, that can’t be, right?” Qi Xianzhao said.

“The company’s accounts are fine.”

“Her accounting? How could we possibly spot any issues with that?”

Qi Xianzhao’s eyes shifted. “That might be the case.”

“Alright, you handle these trivial matters. No need to report back to me,” Lin Yi said.

“How’s the timber business going?”

“That batch of Ruxian goods has already entered customs. We’ve also made a handover with the Huarun Group and will be transported to them soon.” Qi Xianzhao said.

“As for the goods from Bazil, because it’s a long journey and the work efficiency there is relatively low, we might have to wait for a while.”

“Keep a close eye on this matter and don’t slip up.”

“Got it, President Lin.”

After speaking to Qi Xianzhao, Lin Yi made a round of incognito visits to the various departments of the company.

Although he was a hands-off boss, he still had to come down occasionally to take a look around.

“Who are you?!”

When Lin Yi arrived at the Financial and Investment Department, he was stopped by a young lady who came out.

“I’m just gonna hang around here.”

Lin Yi felt that this was quite interesting. Someone actually spoke to him in such a tone in his company.

“How did you get in? Why are you sneaking around at the door?”

The girl was young and looked to be in her mid-twenties. She must have just graduated from graduate school.

“Am I sneaking around?” Lin Yi smiled.

“You’ve already tiptoed to look inside. Isn’t that sneaking around?” The girl held a doc.u.ment in her hand and said warily,

“Also, don’t think you can smile at me just because you’re good-looking. 1 don’t buy it. Hurry up and leave, or I’ll call security.”

“Alright, 1’11 leave now.”

Lin Yi felt that this girl was quite interesting, so he didn’t argue with her too much. After all, she was protecting the company’s interests.

“What are you doing?!”

Just as Lin Yi was about to leave, Tian Yan walked out of the office.

“Director Tian.”

Seeing Tian Yan, the girl’s att.i.tude improved a lot.

“This person was acting sneakily. He was peering into our department. I felt that he looked suspicious. I’m preparing to get the security guards to chase him away.”

Tian Yan’s face darkened. These girls who had just graduated were good in everyway, but they did not like to gossip.

They did not know anything about the company’s internal situation.

“The person standing in front of you is the president of our Lingyun Group. How is he suspicious?”

“Um…”

The girl holding the doc.u.ment froze. She stared at Lin Yi.

“Isn’t the boss of our company Director Qi?”

“I don’t have time to explain this to you. Just ask the older employees.”

“Oh, oh, 1 understand, President Tian.”

Before leaving, the little girl even bowed to Lin Yi.

“President Lin, I’m really sorry. 1 didn’t know you were the president.”

“It’s fine. Go ahead.”

Lin Yi didn’t mind such a small matter. It was good to have such an employee in the company.

After the little girl left, only Lin Yi and Tian Yan were left in the corridor.

Lin Yi realized that Tian Yan’s dressing was a little different from before. Not only did she have faint dark circles under her eyes, but her hair was also a little messy.

“What’s wrong? Why are you in such a bad state?”

“It’s the end of the year. There’s a lot going on in the office. I didn’t go to bed until after two in the morning yesterday.”

Tian Yan blinked at Lin Yi.

“President Lin, do you want to consider giving us ordinary 996 members a raise?”

“Don’t hang around He Yuanyuan in the future. Learn more from Old Qi.”

“President Qi is a G.o.d. He didn’t sleep for two consecutive days, yet, on the third day, he could still work energetically,” Tian Yan said.

“If 1 was like him, I’d have an endocrine dysfunction the next day.”

“That’s why it’d be better to find a boyfriend as soon as possible.”

“Thank you for your concern, President Lin.” Tian Yan smiled and said,

“But then again, I think that since you’re fine, you should come to the company. Many people still don’t know you.”

“As the boss of a company, you have to maintain a sense of mystery at all times. You can’t show your face so casually.”

“Why do you sound like an ancient courtesan?”

Tian Yan’s waist trembled with laughter, which pleased Lin Yi.

“Stop laughing. Your headlights are shining on me.”

Tian Yan immediately stopped laughing.

“Why don’t you just look somewhere else?”

“The other options are your *ss and your thighs. Tell me where you want me to look.”

“Even as the boss of the company, you’re openly teasing an employee. Be careful not to be caught by others.”

“Isn’t that normal? Everyone understands the unspoken rules of a leader.”

“But you didn’t even do anything. If people misunderstand without any reason, wouldn’t 1 be at a disadvantage?”

Lin Yi looked around at Tian Yan. “According to what you’re saying, we might need to address these unspoken rules sooner rather than later.”

“Don’t make fun of me.”

Lin Yi also smiled.

“Alright, go do your thing. I’m just taking a walk. Don’t waste your time.”

“It won’t make a difference. The leader has sent me here as his subordinate. No matter what, 1 have to send him off.”

“Not bad, not bad. You’ve already grasped the trick to getting a promotion and a raise.”

Tian Yan puffed out her chest. “Isn’t this the trick to getting a promotion and a raise?”

“That’s the trick to winning without doing anything.”

“Trick… win…”

Tian Yan laughed even more recklessly, it seemed like she had won without even trying.

The two of them chatted and laughed as they arrived at the company’s lobby.

Tian Yan was prepared to send Lin Yi away before going back to work.

However, before she reached the door, she saw a young woman walking in.

The woman was in her twenties. She was wearing black leggings and a beige windbreaker. She was much thinner than Tian Yan and looked more bony and beautiful. Her long hair was tied up behind her head, making her look clean and neat. She was also very good-looking.

The woman’s name was Song Jiayu, and she was the general manager of Yuhang Xinqi Technology.

She came to Zhonghai this time mainly to seek cooperation and investment. Secondly, she came to visit his relatives for the new year.

“President Lin, stop looking.” Tian Yan said.

“I’ve examined her for you. B-cup, not your type..”
