Qiu Qiaoqiao smoothed things over, saying, "Xiaoxiao, you two are guests. Let me do it."

Chen Xiao then said to Xie Xiaoxiao and the other person, "You two, please sit down. Let Qiaoqiao work hard today."

Upon hearing his words, Xie Xiaoxiao and Qin Ning obeyed and sat down. This action made Dawei feel envious again; he hadn't expected his cousin's boyfriend to be so influential, with both supermodels giving him such face.

When tea was poured for He Qing, she politely said, "Thank you—"

Qiu Qiaoqiao immediately replied, "I hope Mr. He will take good care of me in the future."

This conversation between the two resembled the small talk between a leader and subordinate in the workplace.
Dawei was thinking even more about whether he should find an opportunity to mention his new job to He Qing later.

When he reached Chen Xiao, he smiled and said, "Qiaoqiao, it's a bit of a waste of your talents to have you as my secretary. If it comes to your career development plan, you can try to challenge other management positions later."

David looked at Chen Xiao and thought to himself, "Are you crazy? How old is she? Putting her in a management position? And what's wrong with you? Showing concern for another woman in front of my cousin, isn't that going too far?"

He glanced at He Qing, feeling indignant on behalf of his cousin. His cousin was so outstanding, yet her boyfriend was so "out of touch."

Qiu Qiaoqiao smiled calmly at Chen Xiao: "President Chen, my abilities are limited. I'm afraid I can't even handle this current position. I've never even considered a management position."

Chen Xiao smiled; this was the first time he had seen her so humble. The Chen Xiao he knew before had always been cold and arrogant.

"Being a secretary means you get paid less," he joked. The salary he was paying Qiu Qiaoqiao now was not only less than what she earned as a sound engineer at [Zichen Palace], but it wasn't even as much as many corporate executives.

The second aunt was very sensitive to the word "treatment," and she couldn't believe Chen Xiao didn't seem like someone to be trifled with. She had to take good care of the house for her niece.

"Xiao Chen, what exactly is Qiaoqiao's compensation package?"

If it weren't for her, no one else would have asked that question. After all, salary is a secret for both companies and individuals.

He Qing sighed helplessly and glanced at Chen Xiao. He wasn't angry; his aunt, who lived in the countryside and was of a certain age, spoke frankly and without restraint.

"An annual salary of 100 million seems a bit beneath me..."

Ga?
Auntie and Dawei gaped, as if they had been frozen in place, staring wide-eyed at Chen Xiao: "You...you're joking."

She had previously thought that Dawei would come to work at the Junxiao Charity Foundation as a vice president, but she couldn't even imagine earning a million yuan a year. She would be quite satisfied with a few hundred thousand yuan a year.

Now Chen Xiao is saying that Qiu Qiaoqiao's assistant earns a million yuan a year. Is he joking?
Chen Xiao smiled calmly, turned to Qiu Qiaoqiao who had just sat down after making tea for everyone, and said, "However, this 100 million does not include the year-end bonus. Our year-end bonus is very generous, sometimes even exceeding our salary."

hiss--

David bit his tongue, ignoring the pain. "Can the company afford to pay such a high salary?"

Chen Xiao laughed and said, "It's just a small amount of money, a small amount of money."

Is that a lot? Zhang Ziqian's annual salary has increased several times over. But that's not the whole story. Zhang Ziqian doesn't rely on a salary anymore; Chen Xiao has given her an account with no less than 100 billion yuan, which she can spend as she pleases.

He also bought her shops worth over 200 billion yuan, and gave her an additional 20 billion yuan of "private money".

Although Zhang Ziqian hasn't been taken by him yet, it's an unspoken understanding between the two of them, just waiting for an auspicious day for things to fall into place.

Small amount of money?

David's eyes turned red. You call 100 million a small amount of money? Isn't that just typical of a spendthrift old man?

His eyes widened, bloodshot, as he looked at He Qing: "This is acceptable?"

He Qing said helplessly, "If he says it's okay, then it definitely will be okay—"

Auntie and Dawei were stunned again, exchanged a glance, and simultaneously understood each other's meaning. Chen Xiao—the male version of Su Daji.

Unable to hold back any longer, Auntie spoke up: "Qingqing, you know your cousin, he's a graduate of a 211 university. Arranging a management position for him here shouldn't be a problem, right? With that kind of education... he's definitely a top student!"

Wang Ping couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Her second aunt looked at her, wondering what she was laughing at.

He Qing roughly knew what Wang Ping was thinking, and said awkwardly, "Second Aunt, even our cleaning staff now have a bunch of PhDs interviewing."

Dawei and his second aunt got stuck again.
When they heard the cleaning staff say they were PhDs or had several years of experience as senior executives, they thought they were just bragging.

Now that He Qing is saying the same thing, it's clear that this is the truth. He Qing has no reason to lie to them, and her second aunt knows that He Qing never lies.

Even PhDs are doing cleaning jobs; what about this "high-achieving student" from a 211 university?
David suddenly realized that for someone like him, being able to deliver food was a high-level job for him!
Everyone says the workplace is tough these days, but it's this tough, leaving absolutely no way out.

"Qingqing, you have to take care of your cousin's job. If he can't be the vice president, give him a department head position. After all, he's one of us. With him helping you, you won't be bullied by anyone."

The others didn't feel comfortable interrupting. But Wang Ping was uninhibited and laughed, "Second Aunt, who would dare bully her here?"

Just kidding, let alone the fact that this project belongs to Junxiao Group and He Qing is the boss's wife. Even if outsiders bully He Qing, Chen Xiao will still fly into a rage.
What about Jincheng Group? What about Wansheng Group? Chen Xiao's revenge was so fierce and prolonged that it terrified his enemies.

My aunt chuckled dryly, "I didn't mean it that way. I was watching a TV series where people actually deceived their superiors and subordinates, for example, by falsifying financial documents."

Wang Ping protested, "Second Aunt, I'm the CFO. If you say that, aren't you implying that I'm bullying Qingqing?"

what--

Auntie was dumbfounded. This girl is the CFO?

Despite being He Qing's elder, she knew in her heart that she was definitely not as high-ranking as Wang Ping in He Qing's eyes. The two were truly like sisters.

Upon hearing this, David quickly replied, "I'd be happy with the position of deputy director too!"

Qin Ning kicked Xie Xiaoxiao with her foot and winked, as if to say, "See, things aren't peaceful inside the wealthy family."

He Qing took a sip of tea, put down the blue-and-white porcelain cup, and thought for a moment before saying, "If my cousin wants to develop his career in Jiangzhou, the Junxiao Charity Foundation might not be a suitable option—"

Auntie and Dawei's expressions changed; they hadn't expected He Qing to refuse.

If Qiu Qiaoqiao can make arrangements, why can't her own cousin? They just heard that Qiu Qiaoqiao will be in charge of the Junxiao Charity Foundation, and mistakenly thought that Qiu Qiaoqiao was starting a job there.

This was He Qing's family matter, and Chen Xiao simply smiled and remained silent.

How to arrange things for He Qing's cousin is a small matter. Everything can be arranged by He Qing.

He Qing continued, "This is a charity organization; it's mostly administrative work. My cousin is still young, so he should work in a company to hone his skills and be able to take on greater responsibilities in the future!"

She was doing it for David's own good. The whole "charitable foundation" thing is pretty simple. Anyone can spend money.

This explanation improved Auntie and Dawei's expressions. Auntie said, "The key is that he lacks opportunities for training. Why don't you challenge him a bit here and give him some practice!"

He Qing was speechless. Why was I making things difficult for him? Is there a necessary connection between making things difficult and training him?
Chen Xiao lowered his head, pretending to drink water, otherwise he was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold back his laughter. "Second Aunt, this isn't suitable. How about this, I'll arrange for my cousin to go to [Junxiao Supermarket]. Their purchasing center happens to need people, so my cousin can go there and start from the bottom. But don't worry, as long as he's effective, his promotion will be quick—"

David was unhappy, feeling that his cousin was pushing him away.

"Qingqing, are you just making empty promises to your cousin? If it were someone else, how could they possibly take care of him?"

He Qing personally refilled her second aunt's teacup: "Don't worry, would I harm my cousin?"

After she finished speaking, she glanced down at the time and muttered to herself, "Han Xue should be arriving soon, right?"

Chen Xiao glanced at Zhang Ziqian, "That's strange, Xiaoxue should have arrived by now, what's going on?"

Light snow?

Dawei and his second aunt's gazes towards Chen Xiao became strangely eerie again—

This guy keeps saying he doesn't know any girls, but look at all of them today. Apart from him, who's the only one with a penis, everyone else is a young and beautiful girl.

How can men be so hypocritical? They lie without even thinking it through.

Zhang Ziqian hummed in agreement, "I'll call her and ask—"

Chen Xiao nodded: "Feifei said she'd arrive at 18:30 PM."

"You little brat, are you even human?" Auntie was shocked!

Feifei, that name sounds like a girl's name. You called another girl so intimately in front of He Qing—are you incredibly bold, or just plain audacious!

"Oh, and Yuting too, ask her if she can arrive early. My aunt and cousin are there, so tell her to come as soon as possible—"

Oh my god!

My second aunt admires Chen Xiao immensely.
With this kind of behavior, if he were in his rural hometown, his girlfriend would scratch his face black and blue, believe it or not?

But when she looked at her niece, He Qing was completely normal, as if it had nothing to do with her.

What's going on? Auntie was completely bewildered!
David was even more impressed. It's true what they say: comparisons are odious, and comparisons are infuriating!
He can't even find a girlfriend himself. This guy found a stunning beauty like his cousin, who's also a high-ranking executive at a big company, and he can still have affairs outside. He's living the life that every man would envy.

I'll try to learn from him sometime in the future; my mom just told me to learn from that security guard.

Compared to Chen Xiao, what is that security guard? From today onwards, Dawei will take Chen Xiao as his role model in matters of the heart.

I don't aspire to be exactly like him, but I hope to learn from him in a way that is respectable.

Zhang Ziqian got up and went to the side to make several phone calls.
At this moment, He Qing was still saying to Dawei, "The person in charge of [Junxiao Supermarket] will be here soon. Don't worry about training there. As long as you have the ability, you will definitely not be wronged."

"The salary and benefits there are also good. Even at the entry level, the monthly salary will not be less than 1.5 yuan!"

Two hours ago, David would have jumped for joy! The highest salary he'd ever received for a job was no more than 8000.
He never dreamed he'd get a base salary of 1.5.

But after hearing that Qiu Qiaoqiao's salary is 100 million yuan a year, with a separate year-end bonus, he felt unbalanced.

Everyone says there's a difference between close and distant relatives, but why is my cousin siding with outsiders? I'm your cousin, give me more money, isn't this money still in our own home?
Besides, those scenes he had previously imagined in his mind:
Sitting in the executive chair in the vice president's office, Qiu Qiaoqiao respectfully reported her work to her. She subtly displayed her leadership qualities, including gentleness and charm, which filled her female subordinate's eyes with admiration.

But now—

What's there to admire?

They earn 100 million a year, while I only earn 1.5 a month. That's a difference of countless social classes.

From now on, I won't even be worthy to look at Qiu Qiaoqiao properly when I see her.

Dawei's eyes were filled with resentment, and he glanced at his second aunt with a hint of grievance, almost saying, "Mom, it's your turn to step in!"

My second aunt was actually quite satisfied with the 1.5 yuan, but she understood what her son meant.

Taking a deep breath: "Qingqing, 1.5 is barely enough in Jiangzhou. With your cousin's abilities, he could find that kind of money elsewhere!"

She meant that Dawei could find someone on his own, so giving him this treatment was not commensurate with Mr. He's status and influence.

He Qing smiled: "Medical care is completely free—"

ho-

Dawei and his second aunt were shocked. "There's more?"

"The company will cover all of our children's education from now on."

"Wow—!" David jumped up. "That saved me a lot of money!"

"After three years, you'll be allocated a studio apartment; after five years, a 130-square-meter suite; after eight years, a large penthouse of over 170 square meters—"

"Holy crap—!" Auntie stood up abruptly!
This surprised Chen Xiao and the others; such a trendy slang term actually came from their second aunt's mouth.

The group exchanged glances, barely managing to suppress their laughter.

He Qing blushed slightly. Her second aunt was really something, so young and still so easily flustered.

David was stunned for a moment: "Wow, really? I've been working here for several years, it's like the company has taken care of me for life!"

He Qing smiled and said, "Cousin, this is a company benefit. Also, as long as you achieve good results at [Junxiao Supermarket] and reach P11 (manager level), I'll give you a 200-square-meter apartment in Jiangzhou."

what--

David screamed, a scream even sharper than the cry of a night owl.

A 200-square-meter single-level apartment in Jiangzhou would be worth close to 1000 million yuan. This type of apartment is usually only found in high-end residential buildings.

Dawei never dared to dream of this in his life. Besides, although his cousin held a high position, would she really give away so much money?

Even if he racked his brains, he wouldn't dare to imagine that given He Qing's current level of favor, Chen Xiao would be willing to give her 500 billion yuan.

Ten million is nothing to He Qing.

The reason for establishing this gentleman's agreement is to hope that the He family relatives will live up to expectations and not choose to be parasites! (End of Chapter)
