She searched through her contacts for a while before finding the number she remembered and clicking to dial it.
Soon, the call was connected.
A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone, clearly surprised, "Is this Miss Lin?"
"Xiaojun, are you in Yancheng?"
Upon hearing the voice again, the woman on the other end confirmed Lin Shu's identity. "Yes, I'm in Yancheng. There's an auction at the Yancheng branch tonight, and as the branch manager, I definitely need to be there."
"I'm in Yancheng, but it's a bit difficult to get into your Qingyaoxu."
After saying this with a smile, Lin Shu hung up the phone without looking at the man who had just made a sarcastic remark. She turned to the three people behind her and nodded, saying, "Just wait a moment."
Lin Mo glanced at the man on the left side of the door, his expression incredibly strange.
He had never seen anyone eat feces before, not even as a child.
I imagine today will be quite an eye-opener...
The man on the right side of the entrance had a cold expression, and a few small words were engraved on the gold badge on his chest.
Security captain, Sun Li.
Sun Li strode to the left side of the door and scolded in a low voice, "Qian Zhaojie, are you crazy? Have you forgotten everything we taught you in training?"
"I haven't forgotten."
Qian Zhaojie glanced at Lin Shu's retreating figure and explained hesitantly, "Captain, this is the seventh wave of people without invitations. Our Qingyaoxu auction isn't open to just anyone."
"You know I hate it when people put on airs in front of me, especially since this person just said something outrageous about asking the bank manager to come out and pick her up. I really couldn't control my emotions."
Sun Li said with a stern face, "Can't control your emotions, huh? Fine, you don't need to come to work starting tomorrow."
"What do you mean?"
"It means nothing, you're fired."
"Me? I got fired?"
Qian Zhaojie, who hadn't taken it seriously at first, felt like he'd heard a huge joke when he heard that Sun Li was going to fire him. This time, he didn't even call him "team leader" anymore, and just addressed him by his first name.
"Sun Li, are you getting too cocky? Calling you captain is an honor, do you really think you're something special?"
Qian Zhaojie sneered, "If you dare to fire me, my brother-in-law will definitely not let you off the hook."
"We'll see!"
Sun Li looked at Qian Zhaojie as if he were an idiot, too lazy to waste any more words on this nepotism acquaintance. He quickly walked to Lin Shu's side, his expression full of apology.
"I'm so sorry."
Although he was a nobody, he had been the security captain of Qingyaoxu for so long and had seen many important people. Over time, he naturally developed a keen eye for talent.
Upon first meeting Lin Shu, his intuition told him that Lin Shu was definitely not an ordinary person.
In fact, he was fully capable of stopping the argument just now, but he didn't. He only gave Qian Zhaojie a symbolic warning.
The goal was to get Qian Zhaojie, this person with connections, into trouble!
Lin Shu glanced at Sun Li indifferently, without saying anything.
Lin Mo, who had been watching the show the whole time, walked up to Sun Li with a smile, hooked his arm around his shoulder in a familiar manner, glanced at the gold badge on his chest, and teased him, "Captain Sun's trick of using someone else to do his dirty work is pretty good."
Sun Li's breath hitched, a flash of shock crossing his eyes, and he put on a puzzled look. "Young man, I don't know what you're talking about."
Lin Mo was not surprised by Sun Li's reaction and continued in a low voice, "Captain Sun, this trick is good, but it will also bring you trouble. You should use it less often in the future."
Sun Li frowned.
Now, he really couldn't understand.
Lin Mo didn't say anything more and returned to An Youyu's side.
An Youyu looked up and asked, "What did you just say to that person?"
Lin Mo looked down to meet the girl's curious gaze and said with a smile, "We didn't say much, just chatted for a bit."
An Youyu muttered under her breath, "We don't even know each other, what's there to talk about?"
"That's precisely why we chat—because we don't know each other yet. We'll get to know each other eventually, won't we?"
An Youyu looked at Lin Mo's smiling face and knew he wasn't telling the truth. She poked his waist with her small hand and said, "All you do is smile."
"Is laughing against the law?"
"It's not a mistake, but it's not good to laugh all the time. You should laugh less usually."
Hearing this, Lin Mo's eyes showed a hint of surprise. He raised his hand and tapped An Youyu's forehead. "A smile makes you ten years younger. Didn't you tell me before that a day is a day, whether you're happy or unhappy? Why are you telling me to smile less now?"
"Little Fish, you're contradicting yourself."
An Youyu parted her lips slightly, "Being happy and smiling less are not contradictory."
Lin Mo became interested. "Why do you want me to smile less? You have to give me a decent reason, right?"
A hint of hesitation appeared in An Youyu's eyes. After a few seconds, she murmured, "My mother-in-law told me to stay away from boys who are always smiling."
"why?"
“My mother-in-law said… a boy who smiles all the time is no good.”
"..."
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo rolled his eyes, utterly speechless, and his smile instantly froze.
Got it!
Given this girl's personality, she definitely wasn't just saying that.
It seems I can't keep smiling like this anymore.
Otherwise, it's not a good thing...
After waiting for about two minutes, a series of rapid footsteps sounded.
A woman with a mature and sophisticated style walked out of the auction house. Her black cheongsam perfectly accentuated her figure, especially her ample breasts, which made one worry that the buttons might pop open.
She wore a red badge on her left breast, with a line of small characters engraved on it.
Branch Manager, Liu Yun!
The moment Liu Yun saw Lin Shu, she walked over quickly with a look of surprise and delight, saying, "It's been so many years, Miss Lin, you're still so beautiful."
Lin Shu glanced at Liu Yun and said, "It's been so many years, you've grown quite a bit."
Liu Yun: "..."
The expressions of those present all became subtle.
Such blatant flirting is obvious to anyone who isn't an idiot.
An Youyu secretly glanced at Liu Yun, then looked down and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She had worried about it before, feeling that the place was too big and a burden.
However, she felt relieved after seeing Liu Jun.
Lin Mo noticed all of the girl's little movements, and his expression turned extremely strange.
Could this little thing be...?
Let's compare sizes.
Chapter 267 You're fired!
Liu Yun didn't take Lin Shu's flirting to heart.
She had known this man for many years and knew his temperament well.
Besides, given his status, what could he possibly do even if he flirted with her?
They have the qualifications!
“Miss Lin, ever since I started working in Yancheng, I have sent you an invitation before every auction, but unfortunately you have never graced me with your presence.”
Lin Shu raised an eyebrow. "It seems I have indeed received several invitations."
Liu Yun smiled seductively, "So, I haven't sent anyone to bother you for the past two years. I didn't expect you to suddenly come to attend Qingyao Xu's auction. To be honest, after receiving your call just now, I couldn't help but wonder if I was hallucinating."
Lin Shu waved her hand, "I didn't come before because there was no need, but this time there is a need."
Liu Yun nodded. "Miss Lin, please."
"Not urgent."
Lin Shu looked at Qian Zhaojie on the left side of the door. "Xiao Jun, this man just said that if I could get you here, he would eat shit; you are the owner here, so it's up to you whether you eat it or not."
Liu Yun followed Lin Shu's gaze and her brows furrowed unconsciously.
Although Liu Yun is the branch manager of Qingyao Xuyan City branch, she is not usually in Yancheng. She only comes here to oversee things when there is an auction. She enters and exits through a special passage at the back door.
So even though Qian Zhaojie had worked here for more than three years, he had never seen Liu Yun.
He had asked his brother-in-law about it, but every time the word "bank manager" was mentioned, his brother-in-law would just keep quiet and remind him not to ask about such things.
After several attempts, Qian Zhaojie gave up and stopped asking.
Meeting Liu Yun's gaze, Qian Zhaojie's eyes lingered on the red badge on her chest, but because the two were four or five meters apart and the lighting at the entrance was dim, he couldn't see it clearly at all.
Liu Yun arrived at the door in her high heels, her gaze sweeping over Qian Zhaojie before finally settling on Sun Li on the other side.
As the distance closed, Qian Zhaojie could see the words on Liu Yun's badge clearly, and in just one breath, his face turned from rosy to deathly pale.
Bank president?
Bank manager!!!
Sun Li had the good fortune to meet Liu Yun once, and hurriedly bowed respectfully, "President, this is indeed true."
Upon hearing this, a hidden resentment flashed deep in Qian Zhaojie's eyes.
At this point, if Sun Li were to cover for him, and with his brother-in-law's influence, he could at most admit defeat and resolve the unpleasant incident.
But Sun Li didn't say a single good word for him, what a damned guy!
"Bank manager, just now..."
