Offending a supplier naturally meant the business couldn't continue. However, to be blacklisted so thoroughly, the offense must have been quite severe. Was it a father's revenge or a wife-snatching feud? Lin Yan couldn't help but wonder in his mind.
After sitting for a while, Lin Yan also finished listening to the self-introductions of the group of people behind Li Jianing. They were all core personnel of the company. Lin Yan gave them a cursory glance, with no intention of making large-scale replacements.
"General Manager Lin, should I arrange a secretary for you?"
As Li Jianing was about to leave, she hesitated for a long time before finally asking Lin Yan.
A secretary? Lin Yan hadn't really thought about it, but it wasn't impossible.
He was only half-competent, so having a reliable secretary wouldn't be bad. Actually, it didn't matter much either way, since he still had his precious wife.
"Yes, that can be arranged. Preferably someone with strong business capabilities."
"Alright, General Manager Lin. Besides these, are there any other requirements? For example... gender?"
Li Jianing asked again.
"Gender is not a requirement."
Only after Lin Yan had finished giving all his instructions did Li Jianing close the door and leave.
After Li Jianing left, Lin Yan put away his feigned boss persona and got up to wander around his office.
The renovation... hmm... it was quite good.
Pushing open the door to the small room, Lin Yan saw the true appearance of this little room. The room was about forty-odd square meters, the size of a small apartment.
The interior decoration style was very simple, with only a bed for resting and an en-suite bathroom. There was also very little other furniture: a small coffee machine, a small refrigerator, and a small table. It was very minimalist, and the nearly fifty square meters of space felt a bit empty with so little furniture.
Lin Yan walked up to the wall and took a look. The wall had been newly renovated, which was quite good.
"Hmm? What's this?"
Suddenly, Lin Yan noticed a small metal shelf placed in the corner. Because it was quite low, it had been obscured by the bed earlier. It was only when his perspective changed that Lin Yan could see it clearly.
A barbecue grill?
Lin Yan was stunned. That's right, it was a small electric grill, and it looked new, the protective film still on it. Lin Yan's mouth twitched. Who set this up? A barbecue grill in the chairman's office? To have a barbecue halfway through work?
It had to be said, it was quite good for someone like him, suitable for casual lounging.
After a brief look around, the sky outside had completely darkened. After his stroll, Lin Yan prepared to go downstairs and head home.
The outer office was as simple as the small resting room inside, with a simple reception area and the rest being the office space. It was worth mentioning that Lin Yan's desk was actually a bit longer than his bed. Lin Yan estimated the length on both sides to be at least four meters.
When Lin Yan went downstairs, many people were still working in the company.
"Hello, General Manager Lin!"
"Good evening, General Manager Lin!"
"......"
They greeted Lin Yan enthusiastically and nervously. Lin Yan responded to them one by one. Nine to five, even white-collar workers in Kyoto envied this. Some envied people in big cities for being able to work nine to five, unaware that for them, overtime was the norm.
By the time Lin Yan returned home, it was already past seven in the evening. After the weekend, Fu Qingyun and the others had left, and the elderly Su Hongyun had also returned to their small villa. When Lin Yan opened the door, besides the servants, only Su Mojin was sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
"Husband! You're back!"
The sound of Lin Yan opening the door startled the little girl. She instinctively stood up from the sofa. Lin Yan quickly leaned forward to help Su Mojin sit down.
"No need to get up, just rest well."
"Rest? I've gained several pounds. Husband, I miss you so much!"
As expected, Su Mojin gave Lin Yan another big glare. She was told to exercise more during pregnancy, but her husband always told her to rest.
Listening to his little wife's sweet and coquettish tone, Lin Yan stroked Su Mojin's hair and said with a smile.
"I miss you too. My little ones, quickly say if you miss your daddy."
The two hugged. Holding Su Mojin, Lin Yan felt all the fatigue of the day dissipate.
After speaking, Lin Yan leaned closer to Su Mojin's bulging belly and asked the two little treasures in Su Mojin's womb with a hint of childishness.
Naturally, there was no reaction. Lin Yan didn't mind. He gently pulled Su Mojin into his embrace and leaned back on the sofa. Their heads rested together, appearing exceptionally harmonious under the warm and bright lights. Lin Yan felt that life at this moment was excellent: career, family, a simple routine.
"Husband, have you eaten?"
After they leaned on the sofa for a while, Su Mojin suddenly remembered that Lin Yan hadn't eaten yet.
"I ate on the plane, but... I'm still a bit hungry."
Lin Yan looked at Su Mojin and said with a mischievous smile. Su Mojin didn't understand what Lin Yan meant for a moment.
"Then I'll go get you something to eat."
"Wife, why don't we go to bed early tonight."
...................................................................
The next morning, after finishing his morning exercises and breakfast, Lin Yan got into the car and headed to Yisheng International. According to his father's wishes, Lin Yan estimated that he would be spending a considerable amount of time at the company. To pass the time, Lin Yan directly asked Zhang Mingzhi and the others to set up a simulator in that small bedroom.
After buying some barbecue ingredients and skewers, Lin Yan hurried upstairs.
This time, Lin Yan didn't take the elevator but used the stairs, trying to visit every floor as much as possible. After all, it was his company. He had never been a big boss in his previous life, so he had to experience it properly in this life. Li Jianing accompanied him.
The dignified vice president was now carrying barbecue skewers and some dipping sauces, which looked quite comical. Fortunately, the bag was not transparent, so she didn't lose face.
The employees were very satisfied with this new boss, especially the girls who had just graduated from college. They blushed shyly when they saw Lin Yan.
Is this the legendary celebrity boss?
After touring eight floors, Lin Yan stopped when Li Jianing's legs were sore. He then took the elevator to the top floor.
"As expected of an athlete, their physical fitness is excellent..."
Sitting in the elevator, Li Jianing silently complained. After climbing eight floors and walking around so much, she was already a bit out of breath, but Lin Yan seemed unfazed.
"General Manager Lin, I will be reporting today's work to you. Once your secretary starts tomorrow, this task will be handled by her."
