Daily synopsis: My superpowers are updated every season.

Chapter 1343 Xia Lin put on Xiao Qianxi's clothes and started living Shi Xiaomeng's life!
Shi Xiaomeng escaped the 'too lowly eunuch life' ahead of time because of He Chen, but Xia Lin faced the choice of whether to burn herself like a 'young lady'.

Of course, since she was a girl, Mr. Hu wouldn't be as blunt with Xia Lin as he was with Shi Xiaomeng, saying, "The secret to marketing is nothing more than making men as lowly as eunuchs and women as seductive as prostitutes."

He can't say that.

It wasn't because he was afraid of being harassed by the defendant.

Rather, he was afraid that if he spoke so bluntly, even the most naive person would be enlightened, or rather, overly enlightened.

If that really happens, the "ladies" will go straight to better platforms; why would they choose a small company like Hu's Advertising?

Only a larger platform can provide the right opportunities to propel her to great heights!

Otherwise, wouldn't that be a waste of time?

It's still important to strike a balance between hard work and outright prostitution. People like Xia Lin should still think about making a proper effort, or at least call it hard work. They might not earn much, but it's still quite a lot for an ordinary person—just right.

That's too little; she has no motivation.

It's too much; he doesn't want to give it to anyone.

Striking this balance is a real test for any boss.

It has to be said that President Hu's ability to be praised by his mistress and finance manager as a shrewd and experienced womanizer is truly remarkable. At least in the original story, he saw through Cheng Feng at the very beginning and relentlessly pursued Shi Xiaomeng, his childhood sweetheart, until he finally got her. And now, his judgment of Xia Lin is equally accurate.

Now, because of He Chen, Shi Xiaomeng has escaped his scheming and control. In his anger, he also puts more thought into scheming against Xia Lin.

He endured being humiliated by Shi Xiaomeng by being called a eunuch and even paid out the 8 yuan reward. However, part of the reason lay with Xia Lin. He didn't want to alert the enemy with the 8 yuan reward and scare away Xia Lin, the "big water pipe".

He needs to earn these back tenfold, a hundredfold, or even a thousandfold!

late at night.

Lu Tao's rented room.

"Why are you back so late?" Lu Tao rushed out upon hearing the noise, quite displeased with his girlfriend's late return.

"I have to work overtime, there's no other way!" Xia Lin explained casually as she changed her shoes. "You know, I can't lose to that Li Xue!"

She looks at people with arrogance and disdain all day long, as if she's so great.

That's not all; they're also jealous of talent and suppress newcomers!
Seeing that I was getting better and better at it, and I landed a big deal, General Manager Hu praised me in public. His eyes were practically murderous as he looked at me, and he was being sarcastic and manipulative.

"If we're not happy staying here, then we won't stay. What's the big deal?" Lu Tao didn't want to hear any of this, nor did he really want his girlfriend's work pace.

"Why should I?" Charlene shouted. "If anyone should leave, it should be her! I have the ability to earn money through my own skills, why should I leave?"

As she spoke, she looked at her boyfriend with displeasure: "No, Lu Tao, what do you mean? Don't you support me?"
Or are you just impatient with me talking to you about this again?
Why are you like this?

Back when you were struggling, didn't you always tell me about your successes or frustrations at work whenever we met?
How did I do it?

I listened patiently each time, offering praise or comfort, making me a responsible partner.

But you're the one who gets impatient when I say a few words about work-related troubles?
Is it that only you can say it, and I'm not allowed to say it?

Row!
Can I pretend to be mute from now on?
But there is absolutely no way I'm leaving!
"I won't leave until I've completely defeated this despicable Li Xue! I'll show her, you, and everyone else that I, Xia Lin, can fight!"

"...It's not that I don't support you, but I just feel like this might be something President Hu did on purpose? To stir up a fight between you and Li Xue so he can reap the benefits?" Looking at his girlfriend like this, Lu Tao felt a strong sense of unease. With his keen insight, he subconsciously offered an explanation.

"What do you mean, 'what'?" Charlene said dismissively. "Which boss wouldn't want this? Isn't that how they all are? The key is to provide a fair and just platform so that we can win based on our real skills!"

Our General Manager Hu has done a pretty good job in this regard.

Besides, I'm definitely better than Li Xue, I'm sure I can win!

"..." Lu Tao was speechless.

When he was struggling, just as Xia Lin said, as soon as he came back, he would either boast about his success or complain about his lack of recognition. He never cared about what Xia Lin was doing and didn't think Xia Lin's work was important at all.

Now the tables have turned, and it's Xia Lin's turn to struggle outside, come home and complain to him about everything, treating him like a dumping ground.

The reason he felt so bad was not only because of the reversal of the Heavenly Gang, but also because he always felt that his girlfriend, the boss, Mr. Hu, might have deliberately pushed Li Xue to compete with his girlfriend, causing a rivalry, so that the boss would benefit in the end.

He's familiar with this method!
He's a womanizer and a scumbag; this is something he was born with.

He used to find it useful because he was the center of the female competition; their competition ultimately served him, which he found very enjoyable.

But now that his girlfriend is being dragged around and competing with Boss Hu, Boss Hu will definitely benefit in the end.

His girlfriend was different from him. He was a man and wouldn't suffer any losses outside, but if his girlfriend suffered a loss, he would be cheated on.

And his girlfriend works in sales. If she were to cheat on him, she could turn him into the Hulk!

His girlfriend confidently said that she was better than Li Xue on her own, so she would definitely win in the end. However, his natural talent as a womanizer and scumbag made him worry that his girlfriend's boss, Mr. Hu, might deliberately play both sides and manipulate the situation so that his girlfriend and Li Xue would work hard to make money for the company, and even end up getting intimate with each other.

When females get into a fierce competition, they become obsessed and will stop at nothing to gain an advantage and attack their own kind.

Let alone girlfriends, who are common in all-female colleges and work in clubs after graduation, even pure and innocent female top students from Tsinghua and Peking Universities, when faced with such tactics, having a rival created to provoke and exacerbate conflicts, won't they fall into the trap and become playthings of the bosses in order to prove themselves?

Lu Tao subconsciously suspected that his girlfriend's boss, President Hu, might also be involved in this scheme.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I'm going to take a shower." Xia Lin glanced at her boyfriend. She wanted to say that if she wasn't afraid of making him sensitive, she would have already gone to her boyfriend's father, Xu Zhisen, the president's biological father, and secured a big deal from him. That would have definitely made Li Xue roll her eyes in anger.

But she couldn't do that.

Because she loves her boyfriend!

She has no choice but to rely on her own efforts!
How can everything go smoothly for someone struggling and working hard outside, especially when it comes to fulfilling the wishes of their boyfriend, who is like a giant baby Jia Baoyu who never grows up?

So let's not talk about these things.

She continued to strive, determined to support her family and give her beloved boyfriend, Lu Tao, a home.

I don't need anything fancy, but at least a small apartment of 38 square meters is necessary, right?
Otherwise, if she continued to live in this rented room, and encountered another mean landlady demanding rent and demanding compensation, she was really afraid her boyfriend would resort to violence.

That's infuriating!
Forget about her boyfriend, she couldn't stand him either!
