Cao Kun chuckled, looking at her slightly flushed cheeks, and reached out to pinch her face.

Zhu Mengmeng was startled and quickly took two steps back, biting her red lips and saying in a hoarse voice, "Boss, I... I can't get too close to you, you know that."

A smile flickered in Cao Kun's eyes as he stroked her soft hair: "Don't worry, this matter will be resolved soon."

Zhu Mengmeng paused, then looked up, a glimmer of hope in her eyes: "Really?"

……

Hot summer.

Zeng Gang walked along the road under the scorching sun, drenched in sweat.

He has no money left.

As soon as the news of Zengji Private Kitchen's closure came out, the bank immediately notified him that he was no longer able to repay the loan and forced him to repay it.

Zeng Gang had no choice but to sell all the high-end kitchenware he had just bought at a high price at a low price.

He even sold all the assets he had painstakingly accumulated over the years to plug the hole.

Even so, he still owes a mountain of debt.

After accumulating debt, all my drinking buddies vanished instantly.

Not only that, Pang Lijuan also disappeared without a trace.

Penniless, Zeng Gang could only try his luck everywhere, hoping to find a job to make a living.

But he couldn't carry heavy loads or lift anything, and he didn't have any particularly outstanding skills.

They can only do odd jobs on the streets and alleys to barely make ends meet.

One afternoon, he was strolling along the road when his eyes were suddenly drawn to a bright red job posting on the GG column.

Several lines of large, eye-catching text were written above:

Kunlun Trading is urgently hiring sales staff. Excellent benefits, monthly salary plus commission, with no upper limit!

He paused, muttering to himself, "Kunlun Trading? That sounds pretty impressive..."

Just as I was hesitating, a young man in a suit and holding a flyer walked over.

"Master, are you looking for a job? Our company is in that building over there, and the pay is excellent."

"The base salary for sales is 8,000 yuan, commission is calculated separately, social insurance and housing fund are fully covered, and there is also a year-end bonus."

Zeng Gang's eyes lit up: "Really? It's not one of those scams, is it?"

The young man smiled and patted his chest:

"How could that be? Kunlun Trading is a legitimate large enterprise. Our boss comes from Changteng and has very strong backing."

"If you have some sales experience, that would be even more welcome."

"I actually used to work in sales," Zeng Gang said without hesitation.

"That's perfect!"

The young man was very enthusiastic, and I quickly grabbed him: "We're having interviews here today, why don't you try your luck? You might just get noticed at first glance."

Zeng Gang was somewhat persuaded by his words, and thought that since he had nothing better to do anyway, he might as well go and take a look.

So he followed the directions and went into Kunlun Trading's temporary interview location.

There were already twenty or thirty people in the meeting room where interviews were being held, both men and women, all dressed in suits and ties.

Compared to them, Zeng Gang naturally felt ashamed, but he didn't care.

Zeng Gang casually found a seat and sat down. A middle-aged man next to him struck up a conversation:

"Brother, you look unfamiliar. Is this your first time here? I heard that 'General Manager Xu' is personally conducting interviews today. This is a rare opportunity."

"President Xu?" Zeng Gang was taken aback, a vague unease creeping into his heart.

Damn it, why did he have to have the surname Xu?

He muttered to himself, vaguely sensing that something was amiss.

Not long after, the conference room door was pushed open.

The young man who brought them in said with a smile:

"Everyone, you're in luck today. Mr. Xu just finished a meeting with Mr. Cao, and now he has time to interview you all."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent, and everyone stood up to straighten their clothes.

"Everyone, please don't get excited, let's take it one at a time." The young man began to arrange for everyone to stand in their respective positions.

Everyone in the conference room stood up, ready to welcome "General Manager Xu".

Zeng Gang also stood up.

A short while later, the sound of footsteps came from afar.

A large group of people escorted a tall man as he entered.

The man was impeccably dressed in a suit and exuded an air of distinction.

Someone was holding documents for him, someone else quickly pulled out a chair for him, and people kept respectfully greeting him, "Hello, Mr. Xu," along the way.

Suddenly, the tall man seemed to notice something and walked straight toward Zeng Gang.

Zeng Gang subconsciously lowered his head.

But then a familiar voice said, "You are... Zeng Gang?"

Zeng Gang looked up and was immediately stunned.

Xu Lin was standing in front of him, looking at him with a half-smile.

Zeng Gang stammered, "H-How could it be you!"

Xu Lin said, "That's exactly what I was going to say. Kunlun Trading is my territory. What are you doing here?"

Zeng Gang retorted, his neck stiff, "I... I just wanted to come in and take a look, is that not allowed?"

Xu Lin laughed and said, "I told you before, you'd better not fall into my hands."

Zeng Gang's breath hitched, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

He wanted to leave decisively, but the salary and benefits offered by Kunlun Trading were indeed very attractive in Jinning.

Even if it's embarrassing, he really doesn't want to leave.

Xu Lin looked him up and down and laughed, "Zeng Gang, didn't you claim you could earn 100,000 yuan a day? How come you're working for me?"

Zeng Gang thought Xu Lin was mocking him, but circumstances forced him to submit.

We need to think of a way to stay here, otherwise we won't have anywhere to eat dinner.

His eyes darted around, and he challenged, "I'm much better than you. If I join the company, I might be sitting in your position someday. Do you dare?"

Xu Lin sneered, "Hmph, do you think I'm as vindictive as you?"

Zeng Gang's face lit up with joy, thinking that Xu Lin had fallen for his provocation and he was ready to keep him here.

To everyone's surprise, Xu Lin continued, "You guessed right, I really am that vengeful! Men, throw him out!"

Two bodyguards immediately came up, picked Zeng Gang up by the waist, and threw him outside the door.

"Ouch!" Zeng Gang fell face-first into the mud.

He was struggling to get up when he inadvertently turned his head and saw Pang Lijuan walking by with a man in an intimate embrace not far away.

Pang Lijuan was once again dressed in gold and silver, just like before.

The man she was holding tightly was three times shorter and fatter than Zeng Gang, with a round belly and a swaying gait.

Looking at her like this, Zeng Gang couldn't help but recall the past.

In the past, Pang Lijuan had been just as affectionate towards him, but now she had fallen into the arms of another.

A surge of hatred welled up in his heart.

The sudden shock made him dizzy, his vision went black, and he fainted.

Xu Lin walked outside and happened to witness this scene.

He shrugged and chuckled at the unconscious Zeng Gang: "I told you not to fall into my hands, but you wouldn't listen."

"Hey, you there, call 120 and get him to the hospital. Our company just opened, we don't want him to be tainted by bad luck."

"Yes, Mr. Xu."
