What a coincidence?

The store manager's tone... the store manager's tone clearly carried a sense of unwavering hope!

She held her breath instantly, her blood seemed to freeze and surge wildly in an instant, and her heart almost jumped out of her throat!

"Yes, what a coincidence!"

Her tone carried an almost divinely inspired感慨:

"The Inno Group has now reorganized its regions, and Ms. Xu Jia has become the regional manager!"

"Qin Province is also within her jurisdiction! It belongs to the same region as the Jiangzhou branch!"

Mr. Xu Jia?
Lu Yan was familiar with the name. There used to be a shop assistant named Xu Jia in the store, but she wasn't familiar with Xu Jia back then because they weren't on the same shift and didn't interact much.

Does the old store manager mean that Qin Province and Hanjiang Province belong to the same region within the Yinuo Group?
Lu Yan remembered that it wasn't like this when she was in Jiangzhou; she guessed that it was re-divided after she left.

"Lu Yan, you can send a message to President Xu Jia. I think she'll help you. She's a very good person, you know that."

Lu Yan was stunned. The old store manager was joking with her. Who did she think she was? Sending a message to a regional manager of a multi-billion dollar group—who would even bother replying?

"Leader...you...you must be joking..."

She shook her head, her eyes filled with bitterness and despair:
"What...what am I?"

"Where would I get the phone number of such a high-ranking leader? Even if I did..."

She gave a self-deprecating laugh, a laugh that was more painful than a grimace.

"He's...he's a regional manager! A high-ranking figure! Why would he bother with someone like me...someone who can't even keep his job?"

The enormous gap in their social status made her absolutely unwilling to even entertain the slightest thought of climbing the social ladder! That would be harder than climbing to heaven!

The old store manager of Yinuo then remembered that Lu Yan had left the Yinuo Group almost two years ago!

She had no idea that Xu Jia, the unremarkable and equally unknown shop assistant from back then...

He is no longer a shop assistant or a junior manager!

But -

The old store manager took a deep breath and, word by word, clearly uttered that title that struck like a thunderbolt:
"Lu Yan! Xu Jia is the same Xu Jia who used to work at our store. She... is now the Vice President of the Yinuo Group!"

"He is a regional general manager who truly commands a region and holds a high position of power!"

"He's one of the most core executives in the entire Inno Group!"

This news, like a thunderbolt, completely stunned Lu Yan!
Her eyes were wide open to the limit! Her mouth was involuntarily agape!

My heart felt like it was being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, and it stopped beating!

Vice President?!
Regional General Manager?!

The most senior executive of the Inno Group?!
Xu Jia? The saleswoman who was just like me back then...?

How...how is this possible?!
The immense cognitive gap and the shock of her unexpected fate overwhelmed her like a tidal wave! Her mind completely shut down!

The old store manager was right. This job was extremely difficult for me, but for a regional manager, it was just a matter of a word.

She had worked at the Inno Group and knew how powerful a regional manager was. Let alone a regional manager, even an area general manager was a powerful figure, wielding considerable authority.

For a store clerk like myself, there's no need for a regional manager or even an operations manager; a supervisor could handle the job.

As long as I can get in touch with President Xu Jia, my problem will be solved. This is a very good opportunity, but it's also my only chance.

If she missed this opportunity, all hope would be lost. She suddenly felt afraid and asked, "Boss, I wasn't familiar with her when she was in the store. Now that she's in a high position, I'm afraid I won't be able to strike up a conversation. Could you..."

"To pass on a message for you?"

Her smile was bitter yet clear-headed:
"Lu Yan... do you think... I'm capable of getting on Mr. Xu Jia's good side?"

Her words were like ice water, poured over Lu Yan's heart:

"President Xu Jia... oh no, Vice President Xu, when she visits the stores these days, she's really friendly to us old guys, down-to-earth, and she'll ask us a few questions..."

She paused, as if recalling the invisible barriers created by the enormous difference in their social status.
"but……"

Her tone suddenly became clear and heavy, carrying a profound sorrow born of worldly experience:

"Things like asking for favors or asking for help arranging jobs... are completely different in nature!"

"The gap between you and me, and between her and me, is that we're no longer from the same world!"

Lu Yan's heart turned ice-cold. The stronger her hope had been just moments before, the more devastating her disappointment became!
"Oh, right, Lu Yan. You can look for her," the old shopkeeper suddenly thought of a solution.

"Who?" Lu Yan didn't realize that her voice was already trembling; the continuous blows had left her feeling overwhelmed.

"Zhao, Xiang, Jun!"

It's as if the name itself carries a certain magic.

"Do you remember? That girl from back in the day... who was unbelievably beautiful?"

The old shop manager reminded him urgently.

"She and President Xu Jia... they're best buddies! Best friends! They're as close as twins!"

She spoke very quickly, as if afraid Lu Yan wouldn't remember.
“I remember it clearly! I was working at the shop back then, and Zhao Xiangjun was so attractive that there were always those self-important ‘flies’ swarming around her, which was incredibly annoying…”

The old shop manager looked intently at Lu Yan.

"Didn't you help her several times? You fend off those persistent customers for her! You got her out of trouble many times, didn't you?"

"Just because of this friendship, if you ask her for help, she'll definitely remember! She's such a loyal person, she won't refuse you!"

Zhao Xiangjun? Lu Yan was once again lost in memories.

That woman was so beautiful... she seemed to belong to another world!
That face that was flawless from any angle!

Back when she worked at the shop, almost everyone whispered among themselves: with Zhao Xiangjun's face and temperament, even if she asked for an exorbitant dowry, countless wealthy people would probably be willing to go bankrupt to get it! Why did she have to stand behind the counter and suffer such hardship?

Because of her breathtaking beauty, Zhao Xiangjun became a "male magnet" while working at the store! She attracted countless male customers with impure motives, who would find all sorts of excuses to sneak into the store, trying to chat her up, invite her out, or even pester her relentlessly!
Zhao Xiangjun, however, remained forever like a snow lotus, aloof and detached from the world, cold and distant to everyone, radiating an aura of unapproachability. When Lu Yan worked at the shop, she had helped Zhao Xiangjun fend off several persistent customers. Through this, she developed some acquaintance with Zhao Xiangjun.

She was also a little worried—

“Zhao Xiangjun…she is a very good person…but…”

Her voice was still trembling.

"Is she... unable to get a word in with President Xu Jia now? After all, President Xu Jia has such a high position..."

She subconsciously placed Zhao Xiangjun and Xu Jia in the same unattainable "cloud" level.

"How is that possible?!"

The old shop manager seemed to have heard something utterly absurd and immediately raised his voice to refute it firmly!
Her tone was full of unquestionable certainty, even carrying a hint of envy and感慨:

"The two of them have a life-or-death bond! Their relationship is incredibly deep!"

The old store manager concluded unequivocally:

"Zhao Xiangjun holds immense weight in President Xu's heart! As long as Zhao Xiangjun is willing to speak up, President Xu will absolutely not hesitate! It's just a matter of a word!"

Lu Yan's originally dull eyes were instantly illuminated by this ray of hope!

Although still tear-stained and pale, the deep-seated despair was dispelled for the first time by a glimmer of hope called "possibility"!
She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug deep into her palms!
Lu Yan had Zhao Xiangjun's contact information. Contacting her relieved Lu Yan's pressure; they were on the same level (she assumed Zhao Xiangjun was like her, both sales associates).
The Gulfstream G650 cruised smoothly at an altitude of 10,000 meters, with rolling clouds outside the windows and the cabin filled with the aroma of premium leather and champagne. Chen Xiao was comfortably nestled in the spacious airline seat, his long legs crossed, his slender fingers rapidly swiping through a mobile game on the latest tablet.

Zhang Ziqian and Li Zhien sat quietly, one working on electronic documents, the other wearing headphones and resting with her eyes closed. In the seats slightly in front of Chen Xiao sat Xie Xiaoxiao and Qin Ning, two tall and leggy top supermodels.

They went to Jiangzhou at Zhang Ziqian's invitation, and now that Chen Xiao was visiting Qin Province, he brought them along for a look around.

"Qin Ning, you can't get past level 298? We agreed on a time, and today is the last day. If you can't pass it, change your name! A gentleman's word is as good as his bond!!!"

Qin Ning silently shed tears. She had already spent 200 million yuan on this damn game. How could she have ever thought of playing it in the first place?

A supermodel, on a private jet, spends millions playing mobile games like a gaming addict?

Who would believe that?!
But reality is just that absurd!
Seeing the "Challenge Failed" message pop up on the screen again, Qin Ning felt as if her heart was being torn apart.

Could it be... that I really need to deposit another 50 to reach 250 million?
The moment this thought crossed her mind, she wanted to slap herself!

250 million...aren't I just a complete idiot?

Chen Xiao then said to Xie Xiaoxiao, "I'm out of gold coins again, can you get me some more?"

"Hmm—", Xie Xiaoxiao answered decisively this time. The Vacheron Constantin watch that Chen Xiao had Zhang Ziqian give her was worth more than the money she had given Chen Xiao in the game.

The only real scapegoat right now is Qin Ning.
She looked at Qin Ning with some sympathy, and Qin Ning, as if by telepathy, met her gaze. Their eyes met in mid-air!
No words are needed!
In a flash, they both clearly understood the unspoken resentment in each other's eyes:
Qin Ning's eyes screamed, "My heart is breaking!!"

Xie Xiaoxiao's eyes were filled with pity: "You really... have a tough time!"

In that delicate moment of eye contact and silent grievance—

Chen Xiao seemed to suddenly remember something, turned his head, and asked Zhang Ziqian beside him. His voice was not loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears:

"Ziqian, have all the cars I asked you to order a while ago arrived?"

Zhang Ziqian immediately put down the tablet:
"It should be in the next day or two, and it should have already arrived at the port and be clearing customs."

She recently followed Chen Xiao's instructions and stockpiled a batch of top-tier supercars and custom-made luxury cars (such as limited editions of Bugatti, Pagani, Rolls-Royce Phantom, and Lamborghini) in Jiangzhou. The reason is simple—Mr. Chen has many female confidantes, and he might want to give one away at any time if the mood strikes, but he's too lazy to wait for the lengthy customization process. So, he simply ordered several at once to keep on hand, convenient and quick to use!

Chen Xiao casually uttered an "oh," as if he had only confirmed a trivial matter.

Immediately afterwards, he pointed casually, his gaze not even completely leaving the game screen.
"Oh, then I'll pick one for Xie Xiaoxiao."

Huh?!

The world is quiet!
The two supermodels, who were just exchanging glances as if they were suffering from misery, suddenly seemed to be frozen in place!
They turned around abruptly and stared at each other in utter shock!
But this time, their reactions were different. Xie Xiaoxiao's expression was, "What virtue or ability do I possess to receive such a favor from President Chen?"

Qin Ning, however, was full of resentment: "President Chen, are you blind? I've given so much too!!!"

Although neither of them knew what kind of car it was, it was unlikely that Chen Xiao would give away a regular model like those from BMW, Mercedes-Benz, or Audi!

Qin Ning even had a premonition that the car being given away this time would be worth more than his own Land Rover.

The Gulfstream aircraft continued its smooth flight.

After Chen Xiao finished speaking, he didn't pay any attention to the changes in the two supermodels' expressions. It was as if he had pulled up his pants and then forgotten about them.

Suddenly, a system notification popped up in his mind. He immediately accessed it and opened the message:

[Ding—Detected Zhao Xiangjun transferred 4 million Huaxia coins to the host, activating the Heterosexual Blessing Fund, resulting in a cashback of 6240 billion!]

Chen Xiao: "."

Xiangjun, if this continues, I'll be the one to blame for inflation!
Clearly, this means that Inno Group's Q2 dividends have arrived again!
Previously, Zhang Ziqian reported that Yinuo Group's Q2 revenue exceeded 40 billion yuan, and its net profit was 6 million yuan. The company currently has extremely abundant cash flow, with several billion yuan on its books.

He pulled up the panel for the Heterosexual Blessing Fund:

Heterosexual Blessing Fund: Zhao Xiangjun (Dedication Value '120')

[Occupation: Top Salesperson at Yirui Business Menswear]

[Heterosexual Blessing Fund: 6302 billion]

Asset Status:
Real Estate: One villa in Bihu Shuangxi

Companies: Yinuo Group (80% equity), Junxiao Group (49%)

Junxiao Group's assets: 11690 billion yuan

Junxiao Group's account balance: 5070 billion

Junxiao Group's USD account balance: 30 billion

How are we going to spend this money? Junxiao Group doesn't have any major expenses recently. Apart from major acquisitions, most of its businesses are basically self-sufficient, and some are even profitable!
There is still 5000 billion yuan in the group's account that has not been spent, and now there is another 6300 billion yuan in Xiangjun's heterosexual blessing fund!
Although the newly built Junxiao University and Junxiao Hospital represent a large investment, they are not one-time investments and will not have a significant impact on the group's cash flow.

Having too much money is a source of worry. (End of Chapter)
