When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1091 Shengnan 23
Since meeting Sara, Jiang Shengnan has gradually become familiar with her friends on the 17th floor. In fact, she has only known Xia Ji and Wu You for less than half a year, but she never expected that in just two years, Tan You would get along so well with everyone.

She used to have a good relationship with Xia Tian and Wu You, and because she was the eldest, she would take care of the two young girls more. Now that they were together again, Jiang Shengnan quickly rediscovered that feeling from before.

Summer was feeling dizzy and overwhelmed from doing her homework when she saw Jiang Shengnan come in carrying groceries. She rushed over, hugged Jiang Shengnan, and took a deep breath: "Sister Jiang, it's so hard! And the exam is getting closer and closer, so I'm getting more and more nervous."

Jiang Shengnan let her suckle, and touched Xia Ji's hair: "What are some things you don't know? We'll learn them together in a bit."

"Okay," Xia Ji took the plastic bag from Jiang Shengnan. "Are we having hot pot tonight? You bought so much beef and mutton?"

“Yes, we’re having hot pot tonight,” Jiang Shengnan said, expertly finding a divided pot. “Sara got her car back, and she’s not working overtime tonight. It’s perfect timing since we haven’t gotten together in a while. Tonight is our big 17th-floor get-together.”

"Okay, okay, what kind of broth should we make?" Xia Ji counted on her fingers: "How about one butter broth and one bone broth? It's a pity Jia Hui isn't here..."

"What? I'm not here?" A slightly playful voice rang out; it was He Jiahui, who had been missing from the 17th floor for quite some time. She was leaning against the door, hands on her hips, looking defiant.

Summer replied honestly, "We were discussing having hot pot tonight, but it's a pity you haven't been around lately. Are you done with your work?"

"How could that be?" He Jiahui came in without any hesitation. "It's not that easy. But Jiangjiang, I've taken your advice and am doing very well in the logistics department. I have indeed found some clues. Could you help me sort them out in a bit?"

“Okay,” Jiang Shengnan took a deep breath. This was just a matter of dealing with He Jiahui, right? Could a seasoned veteran like her be intimidated by He Jiahui?
She tensed up, but while washing the ingredients, she started looking for help: "Teacher..."

"Understood, I'll tell you later." Tan You, who was typing in the virtual space, replied, "Actually, it's not difficult. You can learn it yourself. It seems I need to add a new subject for you."

“Fine,” Jiang Shengnan said through gritted teeth, “Study until you drop, I know that.”

Tan You was amused but didn't say anything to relieve the pressure. Jiang Shengnan had a ruthless streak in his bones. He was ruthless to himself, but he was always soft-hearted towards others. To put it bluntly, he was kind-hearted.

When Sara returned, everyone had almost finished preparing the ingredients, and the hot pot was bubbling away. On the way back, Jiang Shengnan told her about the hot pot dinner tonight, and Sara generously contributed her own food, since room 1702 was indeed a bit small.

Sara placed her briefcase in the entryway and took a deep breath. Jiang Shengnan took her coat from her and asked, "Why do you look so sentimental?"

Sara looked at her and smiled: "Suddenly, the phrase 'the joys and sorrows of everyday life' has become more concrete."

Jiang Shengnan put his arm around her shoulder: "It's good, it's real enough. Let's go, let's take a seat quickly, otherwise Jia Hui will snatch all the mutton. I asked the boss to save this for me, we can't let her eat it all by herself."

Sara laughed: "Jia Hui has a good appetite, and you have a great appetite too. I've definitely eaten a lot of good food by following you."

Last week, her car was taken in for maintenance, and this past week, Jiang Shengnan has taken her to eat at many restaurants. She never repeats a dish for breakfast or dinner, always managing to find delicious food in unexpected places.

Even if it's not a fancy restaurant, it's precisely these kinds of hole-in-the-wall eateries that produce delicious food. That's because everyone has been making the same few dishes day after day for decades, and they've become so familiar with them.

Jiang Shengnan felt a little smug. She had developed a love for food, and Tan You was happy to spoil her, finding her many good restaurants, which was a way for her to relax outside of her heavy schoolwork.

Moreover, Sara is an exceptionally good dining companion; she can accept almost anything as long as it's not too exotic. The process of the two of them searching for delicious food together is especially therapeutic. He Jia Hui tapped on the dishes: "What are you two whispering about behind our backs?"

Jiang Shengnan glanced at her, her gaze somewhat similar to Tan You's usual way of judging people: "We're talking about what delicious food there is in S City, not hiding it from you."

He Jiahui pouted, not daring to argue with Jiang Shengnan, but pulled Sara to sit down: "Sara, I made you some beef, try it!"

Summer has already brought out the dipping sauce: "It's your favorite flavor."

Wu You silently opened the yogurt: "The yogurt is also the yellow peach flavor you often drink."

Jiang Shengnan placed a piece of spinach on her plate: "Eat up, what are you standing there for?"

Being taken care of by everyone, Sara suddenly felt that her home was no longer empty, but rather very warm.

While eating hot pot, everyone inevitably started chatting. He Jiahui poured out her grievances: "I've been so tired these past two weeks. These seasoned veterans in the workplace are really hard to deal with."

Jiang Shengnan, a seasoned veteran of the workplace, remained unmoved and listened quietly to He Jiahui's complaints: "But there will still be results. If I succeed this time, I can directly cut off one of Lao He's left and right arms."

Sara frowned: "You're too sharp and aggressive; you're likely to alert the enemy."

Jiang Shengnan nodded: "It's best to strike decisively the first time."

He Jiahui hung her head: "So you just stand there and do nothing?"

Her frown dampened everyone's appetite. Jiang Shengnan, having received a hint from Tan You, said, "Now that you've caught their mistake, there's no reason for you to just leave it unattended."

"Don't do it yourself. You already said that your dad and mom started the company. There should be some old-timers from your mom's faction in the company, right? Use them to handle it."

He Jiahui was somewhat unwilling: "Such a good opportunity to establish authority..."

Jiang Shengnan doesn't understand business, but she understands people. After all, she works in human resources. She couldn't help but smile and said, "You're all alone in the company now. Even if you have the old guard from your mother's faction, your mother has been gone for so many years. Even if there's some affection between you, how much can it really be?"

“You’ve done a great job at both Fanmao and the branch office, and you’ve demonstrated your abilities. But you’ve been relegated to the logistics department, and no one is speaking up for you. Don’t you understand why?”

"Maintain the relationships that need to be maintained. Take this opportunity to get in touch with the elders and also show your abilities indirectly. Of course, do all this discreetly. Old He is no pushover."

He Jiahui finally understood. She pouted her greasy lips and tried to kiss Jiang Shengnan, but Jiang Shengnan dodged her in disgust: "Stop it, are you going to eat or not?"

"Eat!" He Jiahui grabbed her chopsticks. "Jiangjiang, you really are my strategist! How could I live without you?"
