My Terrible Life in Those Years

I was deeply shocked when I heard this.

Good heavens, Aunt Shu actually brought up the Xiancun redevelopment project?

How much does she actually know?

I suddenly had a thought: I wanted to barge into her office right now, open her little drawer, and see if there was a small notebook inside filled with names, dates, events, and even some shady records?

I reckon the first page must have Wu Bo's name on it.

Could my name be on the next page?

Thinking about how many things I've done that she's got me in her hands, my balls tightened and my back felt a little cold.

Good heavens, at this crucial moment, all of these things, one by one, were revealed.

And at that moment, she deliberately glanced at me, as if to say, "What do you mean? You really remembered all that dirt on me?"

I quickly turned to look at Wu Bo, whose scandals were definitely far more numerous than mine. Aunt Shu's eyes flashed with a smug look; did she finally have me under her thumb?

Ma'am, you're overthinking it. At the company, I'm just an ant. You could easily crush my entire month's wages with a single high heel!

But looking at Wu Bo's face, which had turned as dark as African black, I roughly knew that this woman knew just as much as I did!

At this point, Wu Bo had completely lost the aura he had when he was spouting nonsense. If it weren't for the stool under his butt, I reckon he would have collapsed to the ground.

However, his wife, Sister Guan, didn't show much change in expression. She had to deal with the two bosses while also controlling her husband who had almost lost control.

He's a formidable character!

Liu Zong's face was ashen, while Wu Bo was like a limp lump of mud.

Inside the meeting room, discussions arose.

This is quite a shocking revelation. Who is Wu Bo?

It's General Manager Liu, an old man I've been working with for over ten years.

Who is General Manager Shu? He's a professional manager we hired a year ago.

Does this mean a showdown between the new and the old forces?

So, Mr. Liu, which side are you on?

Judging from today's situation, it seems he supports President Shu?

What's going on here?

The changes these past two days have truly baffled my colleagues. You'd only dare to act like this on TV, right?

When the meeting ended, Wu Bo was at the very end, sitting there the whole time, with Sister Guan keeping him company.

I waited until Aunt Shu and Boss Liu left before going out with Zhou Tong.

Almost all my colleagues along the way stared at me with various kinds of eyes.

This time, the entire company not only got to know me, but also began to show interest, curiosity, scrutiny, or even wariness towards me!

I still have 50,000 yuan in cash in my hand! It's hard not to attract attention.

No worries, dozens of cameras were pointed at me just now and I was fine, so why would I be embarrassed now?

After two major upheavals, I, a temporary worker who had only been on the job for seven days, a migrant worker who had just arrived in Huacheng Jiutian, and a graduate from a fourth-rate university who had just graduated a little over a month ago, became the biggest winner!

I've got my job sorted out, and today I officially became a permanent employee, setting a new record for the fastest permanent employee in the company.

From then on, Liu Meizi used this as a standard when hiring temporary workers: You have great potential. Let's see if you can break the record of your Jiangning colleagues who were hired and then promoted to permanent positions.

You are very capable. Let's see if you can get the 60,000 bonus within seven working days.

You are very capable. Let's see if you can get all the major newspapers to scramble to report on you!

You are very capable; let's see if you can become a rising star in the second company!

Regarding actual income:

Commission/bonus: 10,000, 2,000 actually paid, salary will be paid in a few days, the remaining 8,000, plus salary and other subsidies, should arrive in your account soon.

And there's the 50,000 yuan bonus that was just awarded!

I've struck it rich!

I feel like my feet are floating!

Just as I was about to return to my seat, Liu Mei tugged at me, signaling me to wait in the administration area.

When most of the people had left, she took a small bag and asked me to go downstairs with her.

"What's wrong, Sister Liu?"

"How old are you? Call me sister?" Liu Meizi rolled her eyes at me.

"You must know my personal information, right? I should be older than you, right?" One young lady, Panpan, almost made me feel disgusted. If another older lady were added, I couldn't handle it.

"I'm telling you this because I know your information. From now on, remember to call her 'Sister Liu' when you see her!"

Well, another older sister.

"I really can't tell, Sister Liu! If you ask me, you really look two or three years younger than me!"

Anyway, kind words don't cost anything, and the girls in the administration department are quite friendly to me.

"Stop talking nonsense. Let me tell you, when you invite Zhou Tong to dinner, you can't just invite her, can you?" Goodness, this dinner invitation can't be kept secret at the company.

"Alright, alright, Sister Liu wants to eat, feel free to speak up. Anyway, I'm rich now!"

"Don't get too cocky. I'll take you to the bank, open an account, deposit the money, and then we'll come back and complete the formal onboarding procedures."

Oh, I see.

"Hey, Sister Liu, is there a raise for this full-time employee position?"

"Call me 'sister.' Isn't that obvious? How can a temporary worker compare to a permanent employee? Your position has a basic salary of 2500, plus other benefits, social insurance and housing fund, bonuses, travel allowances, and year-end bonuses. Unless you make a serious mistake, you can't be fired anytime. Do the math yourself!"

A surge of joy welled up inside me: "So, does that mean I'll be able to earn enough to get married soon???"

Sister Liu rolled her eyes: "Look at you, so pathetic!"

"Hey, something's not right. Why are you suddenly talking about saving money for a wife? Kid, tell me, do you have a girl?"

When I thought of Wan Ning, my happy mood paused for a moment, as if it had been a long time since I had a serious conversation with her.

No, I absolutely have to see her tonight.

"Aren't there plenty of girls out there? Look at our company, so many single beauties are waiting for me!" I boasted shamelessly.

Sister Liu's eyes widened: "Hey, I think you also need an older sister who can keep you in check, like the head maid in Manager Wu's family!"

I exclaimed, "Ah! Sister Guan, she's older than Manager Wu?"

"That's right, exactly three years older. Haven't you heard the saying, 'A woman three years older than her husband is like holding a gold brick'?"

I grinned at her mischievously, "Little sister, are you three years older than me?"

She rolled her eyes again: "Stop talking nonsense, you're only three months older, what? You can't be carrying a gold brick!"

I chuckled along with them.

"That Aunt Guan, she seems so amiable, how does she manage to keep Manager Wu so obedient?"

Sister Liu paused for a moment, then leaned closer to me: "If it weren't for Sister Guan and Manager Wu, you wouldn't have gotten this position so easily. You've offended their whole family, so you'd better watch out!"

I was startled. Was it really that powerful?

After depositing the money and getting the card, I looked at it from all angles, but nothing felt as substantial or satisfying as 50,000 yuan in cash.

Back at the company, after completing the formal onboarding procedures, I immediately received a notification that Aunt Shu wanted to see me.

Zhou Tong and I went in together.

Aunt Shu was on the phone, saying something in a low voice, which was hard to hear clearly.

We sat on the sofa at the far end and waited.

I whispered to Zhou Tong, "What do you want us for? Is there any new work to assign?"

"I don't know either. I've never worked in this newly established department before."

"It's not one of those PR departments where they want you to accompany the male guests, and I have to accompany the female guests, is it?"

Xiao Zhou Tong chuckled, covering her mouth as she swayed gently, afraid to laugh out loud.

The tight-fitting blazer accentuated her upper body curves as she covered her mouth. Wow, she's got some assets!
