My Wild Wife in Shanghai

Just then, Xie Dong and Wen Yu arrived at the store.

"Haha, it's almost time to get off work, Li Bo. We're going to have a big meal today, right?"

Xie Dong's old-money style outfit is very fashionable.

Wen Yu took his arm, clinging to him like a little bird.

When Wen Yu saw Chen Ye, a flash of excitement suddenly appeared in her eyes, and she immediately let go of Xie Dong's arm.

She thought to herself, "Didn't they say Chen Ye had resigned? He's still here!"

That's perfect. Once I become the store manager's assistant, I'll bully you mercilessly.

"What are you two doing here?" Bai Xueyan asked, frowning.

"Li Bo will be the head office manager after today, and he said he's treating everyone to dinner tonight! Xiaoyu and I are his guests!" Xie Dong grinned at Li Bo. "Manager Li, is that right?"

Li Bo's mouth was agape, he was on the verge of crying, his expression as ugly as if he had eaten shit.

"Who told you that Li Bo is the store manager?" Bai Xueyan asked coldly.

"Isn't it obvious!" Xie Dong pointed to the data on the large electronic screen: "Look, the top performer, Li Bo, with 161 million in recharges! Don't think you don't understand! The top performer gets to become the store manager of the main branch, right, Li Bo?"

"You're right!" Bai Xueyan said, "But the data you see isn't the final result. Chen Ye still has 40 in sales revenue that hasn't been included."

"Oh?"

Xie Dong looked over at Chen Ye's column.

"Chen Ye's 135 million, plus 40..." Xie Dong calculated, "That's 175 million, isn't it?"

"Yes!" Bai Xueyan nodded.

"175 million..." Xie Dong's eyes darted around, then he found Li Bo's entry again: "Holy crap... Li Bo has 161 million, Chen Ye has over 161 million..."

"Chen Ye surpassed Li Bo?" Xie Dong could hardly believe the result. "Chen Ye is number one?"

Bai Xueyan nodded.

Instantly, Xie Dong and Wen Yu felt as if they had been doused with a bucket of cold water, and their previous enthusiasm vanished completely.

Wen Yu, in particular, stared intently at the screen with her big eyes, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

She painstakingly used her connections to get the position of assistant store manager.

Unexpectedly, she ended up becoming Chen Ye's subordinate.

Fate plays tricks on people, leaving them both amused and exasperated.

She thought she had taken a shortcut, but it turned out to be a joke.

"Li Bo, what's wrong with you?" Wen Yu was furious. "Didn't you say it was a sure thing?"

"I...I...Damn it!!"

Li Bo lost control of his emotions, cursed angrily, and turned to run towards the back lounge.

I bet he's going to have a good cry.

"Although the results are in, the appointment email won't be sent out until tomorrow. Chen Ye, stand firm in your last shift as a physical therapist. Starting tomorrow, you'll be the manager of the Shanghai Beauty flagship store. Let's give Chen Ye a round of applause!"

Whoosh!

Thunderous applause erupted from all around.

Those who had previously flattered Li Bo now all came up with smiles and congratulated Chen Ye.

"Congratulations, Brother Chen."

"What 'Brother Chen'? Now I call you Manager Chen!"

"Calling you 'store manager' sounds too distant, but calling you 'Brother Ye' is better. Congratulations, Brother Ye! Hahaha!"

... ...

The crowd offered their congratulations and cheered.

"Thank you everyone, I'll treat you all to dinner tonight!" Chen Ye said.

He planned to use some of his salary in advance to treat everyone.

"Wait!" Li Bo returned sometime earlier. "I've already booked a restaurant for tonight, and the cold dishes are almost ready. Let's eat at the place I booked tonight. You can treat me another day!"

He'd already paid the deposit and ordered the food in advance; if he didn't go, he wouldn't get his money back.

We might as well just go out for a meal.

"Alright, Brother Bo, you've gone to all this trouble!" Chen Ye said with a smile.

Li Bo gritted his teeth and remained silent.

The next second, he looked at Xie Dong and Wen Yu: "Brother Dong, sister-in-law, go have a bite!"

"I'll eat your mother's ass!" Xie Dong cursed.

He's so angry he's about to have a stroke.

"Xiaoyu, let's go!" Xie Dong turned and left.

Wen Yu took a deep breath and said to Bai Xueyan, "Auntie, we're leaving now!"

Then, she followed Xie Dong out of the store in a huff.

Li Bo was so humiliated by the scolding that he couldn't lift his head, and he looked like a lump of dust.

"Mr. Bai, would you like to join us tonight?" Chen Ye asked.

"I'm not going, I have work tonight, you guys go ahead!" Bai Xueyan glanced at her watch and said, "It's time to get off work, everyone go have some fun!"

"yeah!"

Everyone cheered and changed out of their work clothes, then took taxis according to their location to the dinner venue.

Although Li Bo was the one who treated everyone, Chen Ye was the main character at the banquet.

After all, once you become a store manager, you have a lot of say in employee KPIs, rewards, promotion channels, and so on.

In other words, their lives and deaths were in Chen Ye's hands.

Chen Ye is the store manager of the main store, which is the highest level in the main store. The store manager position is also the most valuable, comparable to the manager level in the group. He can be said to be the most outstanding in the entire beauty store circle in Shanghai.

Chen Ye's move represents a qualitative leap from a grassroots position to a managerial role.

He was also very excited, and he enjoyed himself immensely, drinking and chatting with everyone.

This banquet reveals the drinking culture in the workplace.

During the meal, everyone tried to toast Chen Ye, their faces full of flattery and their words full of sycophancy, doing everything they could to please him.

It's hard to imagine that just a day ago, these were a group of indifferent colleagues who barely greeted Chen Ye.

Li Bo, on the other hand, sat in the corner with a blank expression, not saying a word.

No one offered him a toast.

He is like a forgotten statue, covered in moss, obscuring his former glory.

What's most infuriating is that he paid for the meal.

He was the one who got married, the one who made the wedding dress. He was completely taken advantage of, but had no one to complain to.

The banquet lasted for more than three hours, and everyone dispersed only after they had eaten and drunk their fill.

On his way back in a taxi, Chen Ye's phone kept receiving messages, all from his colleagues at the store.

"Brother Chen, congratulations! I have so much to say to you, but today isn't the right time. I'll treat you to dinner another day, Brother Chen, please give me that chance!"

"Manager, it was my fault that Li Bo instigated me to trip you up before. You should punish me if you need to. It's all my fault. I will listen to you from now on."

"Brother Chen..."

Chen Ye's phone was usually quiet.

But from this moment on tonight, his phone has been constantly receiving messages.

The red unread numbers only increase, never decrease.

His usually stern and unsmiling colleagues were now secretly pledging their loyalty to him.

Even more outrageous were the text messages from those female colleagues:

"Manager, you have a really good alcohol tolerance. I know you didn't drink enough. Come to my house another day, I'll cook and treat you to a proper drink."

"Brother Chen, I've always thought you were amazing. I'm really good at judging people, aren't I? Hehe (smiling emoji)!"

"Hey bro, I'm home. I bought a few new outfits, and the delivery just arrived. Can you help me see which one looks best?"

Immediately afterwards, three pictures were sent over.

There were three sexy slip dresses, each one incredibly alluring.

The girl who posted the picture is a stunningly beautiful receptionist at the store. She's usually incredibly aloof and gives off an air of unworldly elegance.

I never expected her to have this side to her.

"Brother Ye, can you give me some advice?"

The receptionist sent another message, accompanied by a coquettish emoji.

Chen Ye replied, "Either is fine, but I like purple. I think purple is mysterious and noble!"

Less than two minutes later, the other party replied with a picture.

In the picture, the receptionist is actually wearing that purple sexy dress.

She struck seductive poses, her round, pert buttocks and imposing breasts almost bursting through her poor little lace dress.

Below the picture was a message that read: "Brother Ye, I'll listen to you."
