Peerless Cupid System

"He was the first to sign up, and the chairman asked you for help because he was worried that he would become the manager."

"I see," Ling Ziqian chuckled. "Secretary Hua, please register me too."

On the other end of the phone, Secretary Hua paused for a few seconds, but she displayed excellent professionalism, saying, "Okay, I understand."

Ling Ziqian was taken aback when she didn't refute him.

After hanging up the phone, he took a deep breath. Signing up was tantamount to issuing a challenge to Gao Wenhui!

Back in the office, Chen Qian, who had gone to take out the trash, also returned.

Hou Qin, heavily made up, received a phone call. She glanced at the people in the office.

Everyone was busy with their heads down and seemed difficult to manage, so her gaze fell on Chen Qian.

She also recognized Chen Qian, who had joined the company with her. "Hey you, you and the guy with glasses go to the mall to do a survey. The survey data is with me. You two bring your things over and make a copy."

The so-called investigation was just errand running.

Chen Qian was extremely frustrated, but there was nothing she could do; she could only look at Ling Ziqian. (A phrase implying deep sorrow and despair.)

Ling Ziqian went to copy the documents, then printed them out, and left with Chen Qian.

No sooner had the two left than Gao Wenhui, the man with slanted eyes, stormed into Group C's office, carrying a data sheet.

Hou Qin hurriedly got up to greet him, but Gao Wenhui ignored her.

"Who is Ling Ziqian?" Gao Wenhui asked angrily.

"..." The office staff looked at each other, bewildered, none of them having ever heard of Ling Ziqian.

"Probably that bespectacled guy who just arrived today," someone muttered softly.

"A new employee today?" Gao Wenhui's face darkened. "It's Sunday, how could a new employee start work today?"

"Um, let me see..." Hou Qin quickly checked the company's internal system.

She quickly found the answer: "Ling Ziqian wasn't hired from outside, but rather transferred from another department. It's likely this was done by the previous team leader, so..."

"No matter where he was transferred from, he's a newcomer in the sales department!" Gao Wenhui shouted, his face contorted.

“That’s right, that’s right.” Hou Qin nodded, but she couldn’t understand why Gao Wenhui was so angry.

"Where is Ling Ziqian?"

"I just sent him out to conduct an investigation."

"When you get back, give him a good talking to. He's just a newbie, yet he dared to sign up for the manager selection. That kid is really lawless. Although the company is very free and open, and everyone can sign up, he's showing no respect for his elders. He's desperate to climb the ladder!"

Gao Wenhui slammed a list he was holding onto his desk.

Hou Qin glanced at the list, which was a list of candidates for sales manager, and Ling Ziqian from Group C was among them.

The office staff were stunned when Gao Wenhui said those words.

Many of them had been with the company for several years, but they never dared to apply whenever a manager was being selected.

Even the team leader wouldn't dare to sign up for the manager selection process.

Ling Ziqian, the newcomer who had just been transferred to the sales department and was just an ordinary employee who had only worked for half a day, actually wanted to become a manager!

He's really crazy, trying to get to the top in one step!

Hou Qin smiled at Gao Wenhui, "Manager, don't be angry. A little Ling Ziqian is no threat to you. You will definitely become a manager!"

Gao Wenhui's face was contorted, his eyes extremely fierce. "I'm not worried that he will threaten me, but this behavior is insubordination. As my employee, he doesn't even respect me. It's too arrogant!"

"Fire him! No, keep him around and teach him a lesson!"

After saying that, Gao Wenhui left in a hurry.

The office staff looked at each other in bewilderment. Putting aside Ling Ziqian, if someone like Gao Wenhui became the manager, none of them would have a good life.

Hou Qin returned to her seat, picked up her cup, and continued drinking tea, pondering how to deal with Ling Ziqian...

Episode 27: I'm the Man Who Wants to Be a Manager

Chapter 209 Comparing people is truly infuriating!

After leaving the company, Ling Ziqian and Chen Qian went to various shopping malls to conduct investigations.

Ling Ziqian really wanted to just do the bare minimum for this kind of errand-running work.

But Chen Qian took it very seriously. She said that although such investigation work may seem insignificant, it is of great importance to the company.

Seeing how serious she was, Ling Ziqian had no choice but to muster his energy.

Braving the howling wind, the two traveled to half of Haitang City and visited more than a dozen shopping malls.

The two returned to the company just before lunchtime.

I get off work at 12:00 and start work again at 1:00, a mere hour. Going home for dinner would be extremely inconvenient.

Instead of going upstairs, Chen Qian led Ling Ziqian to swipe their card downstairs before heading to the cafeteria for lunch.

During the meal, Ling Ziqian called Yu Meiren and told her that he was eating at the company.

Su Mingxi and Dou Xiaorong were also in the cake shop. Yu Meiren was probably on speakerphone, and the two of them were excitedly asking Ling Ziqian some questions.

Ling Ziqian smiled wryly, not mentioning that he had been running errands all morning, and indicated that he was doing well at the company.

After hanging up the phone, he asked Chen Qian about some things at the company.

But Chen Qian was also a new employee and didn't know many things.

After lunch, everyone returned to the C group office and took a nap at their desks.

Seeing this situation, Ling Ziqian felt a pang of sadness.

I studied hard from a young age, got into university, and after graduating, I ended up living this kind of life.

Is it for the money? Is it worth it?

After letting his mind wander for a while, Ling Ziqian also lay down on his desk and fell asleep.

Not long after he fell asleep, a loud 'bang' startled Ling Ziqian and everyone in the office.

Ling Ziqian looked up in surprise and saw Hou Qin, heavily made up, throwing a thick stack of documents onto his desk.

Hou Qin looked at Ling Ziqian with a mocking expression. "Ling Ziqian, you signed up to be a manager, right?"

"Huh?" Chen Qian, who was sitting next to her, couldn't help but make a sound of surprise. Realizing that she had lost her composure, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand.

“That’s right.” Ling Ziqian nodded, quite annoyed by Hou Qin’s action of throwing the documents at him earlier.

"Are you crazy? I'd like to see who will vote for you." Hou Qin laughed sarcastically. "When you're dreaming of becoming a manager, don't forget your job. Go ahead and enter this data into the computer and archive it."

After saying that, Hou Qin swayed her hips and left.

Chen Qian walked up to Ling Ziqian, full of curiosity, wanting to ask him about the application process for selecting managers.

"The document said that everyone could participate, so I just signed up casually," Ling Ziqian explained nonchalantly.

"Oh." Chen Qian didn't know what to say, as she wasn't familiar with Ling Ziqian yet.

Ling Ziqian flipped through the documents Hou Qin had brought over, and his scalp tingled. Did he have to enter all of this into the computer himself?

Chen Qian glanced at it curiously, "It's all handwritten information. If it were printed out, you could just scan it."

Ling Ziqian nodded. He didn't want to do this job; he wanted to rebel.

Unexpectedly, Chen Qian picked up the thick stack of documents and took them to her seat.

She smiled sheepishly, "You don't even have a computer yet, how are you going to input the data? Let me do it, I've studied stenography, I type very fast!"

Hou Qin was unhappy to see Chen Qian helping Ling Ziqian.

She was looking at her phone and, like an emperor, she yelled, "Chen Qian, the trash can is full, take it out."

Chen Qian instinctively reached out to take out the trash, but Ling Ziqian, with a dark expression, waved her off and took the trash can to empty it.

When she came back, Chen Qian was actually mopping the floor!

Without saying a word, Ling Ziqian picked up a mop to help Chen Qian.

After mopping the floor, Hou Qin said that the windows were very dirty and needed to be wiped, and the office doors also needed to be cleaned.

Ling Ziqian and Chen Qian spent the entire afternoon cleaning, practically giving Group C's office a thorough cleaning.

Several times, Ling Ziqian tried to resist, but Chen Qian pulled him back and shook her head at him.

When it was time to leave work, the other colleagues packed their bags and left.

Hou Qin walked over, looking at Ling Ziqian with a cold smile, "Have you finished the data I asked you to enter?"

Ling Ziqian never expected that Hou Qin would be so shameless, keeping him busy all afternoon.

I clearly didn't have time to enter the data, but now she's come over and ask me if I've finished my work.

"If you haven't finished, go clock out and come back to work overtime. If you don't see the archived data by tomorrow morning, you'll be in big trouble!"

“You…” Ling Ziqian wanted to get angry.

"Yes, we'll finish entering the data tonight!"

Chen Qian stood in front of Ling Ziqian, nodding and bowing to Hou Qin.

Seeing Chen Qian's cooperation, Hou Qin left with a smile.

I remember when I entered the office this morning, I saw the petite Chen Qian carrying a bucket of mineral water.

Ling Ziqian felt very uncomfortable. He looked at Chen Qian and said, "You've been bullied like this for the past two weeks since you joined the company, haven't you?"

Chen Qian smiled and shook her head, "I used to think I didn't know anything, so I took the initiative to change the water and sweep the floor, but today Hou Qin really went too far."

"You know she's going too far?" Ling Ziqian glanced at her speechlessly.

"Hehe..." Chen Qian smiled sheepishly, "The reason I swallowed my anger was because I didn't want to lose my job. My education level isn't high. I'm not afraid to tell you, I only graduated from a vocational high school. I'm already very fortunate to be able to work at Tianhuo Group, which has a very high salary."

For work!

Ling Ziqian nodded helplessly.

"Okay, it's just cleaning. The companies I used to work for even made me scrub toilets. Cleaning is nothing!"

"No way?" Ling Ziqian was startled.
