Tang Xinwan, originally planning to stay for two days to relax before returning, urged Ye Cangtian to go back the next morning as she couldn't rest easy about the company.
Suzhou City was only a two to three-hour drive from Yangzhou, so the two of them arrived back in Yangzhou City a little past ten in the morning.
Li Dazhuang knew they were returning today, so he was eagerly watching from the security room.
Upon seeing a taxi with a Suzhou license plate stop, he immediately rushed out excitedly. Sudancn.com
"Brother, you're finally back!" Li Dazhuang was overjoyed.
Although he had received a call from Ye Cangtian the previous evening, informing him that Tang Xinwan was out of danger, he still couldn't put his mind at ease. Seeing the two of them standing before him now, Li Dazhuang was incredibly moved!
He had been blaming himself these past two days. It was because of his failure to protect her that his "sister-in-law" was kidnapped. If she had been harmed, he would never be able to forgive himself.
So, Li Dazhuang said dejectedly, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry. Please fire me. I made such a huge mistake, and I have no face to stay here any longer."
Tang Xinwan felt a mix of amusement and exasperation. This time, she didn't correct his address. Instead, she shook her head and chuckled lightly, "It's not your fault. You don't need to blame yourself. Besides, aren't I alright now!"
"But I..." Li Dazhuang scratched his head, stammering for a long time without being able to finish his sentence.
Ye Cangtian smiled and patted his shoulder, "Alright, Dazhuang. Your sister-in-law won't fire you. Just do your job well!"
Tang Xinwan couldn't help but give him a sidelong glance. Who told him to casually change the address?
She still had many matters to attend to at the company, so she quickly returned to her office.
Beside the security booth, Ye Cangtian chatted with Li Dazhuang while smoking.
"Dazhuang, have you and your sister moved yet?"
Ye Cangtian remembered that before Tang Xinwan's disappearance, he had told Li Ya that the siblings should move into his apartment.
Li Dazhuang explained sheepishly, "Not yet. Brother wasn't home, so we felt awkward moving in!"
Ye Cangtian couldn't help but smile, "I told Xiao Ya that I wouldn't be living there anyway. The remaining months of rent would be wasted if left empty, and it would be quite convenient for you and your sister to move in!"
Li Dazhuang scratched the back of his head, appearing quite simple and honest. He knew Ye Cangtian was helping him and his sister.
Li Dazhuang had also learned about Li Ya graduating early. Therefore, he informed Ye Cangtian that his sister, Li Ya, was currently looking for a job.
However, the job-seeking process didn't seem to be going smoothly. After all, although Li Ya was graduating early, she didn't have a diploma yet, making it difficult to find a suitable job.
Ye Cangtian quickly thought of having her work at Haitan Pharmaceuticals, but he would need to mention it to Tang Xinwan first.
He wasn't sure if this woman Tang Xinwan would agree. Although their relationship seemed to have taken a step closer, even her cousin Tang Xiaowu could only work as a diligent ordinary employee in the company.
Therefore, it was hard to say whether she would agree.
Soon, Ye Cangtian arrived at Tang Xinwan's office. Seeing her engrossed in reviewing documents, he unceremoniously lay down on the sofa and said, "I need to discuss something with you!"
Tang Xinwan stopped what she was doing and looked up, asking, "What is it?"
"You know Dazhuang has a sister, right? She's graduating early and looking for a job. Do we have any suitable positions in our company?"
"Li Dazhuang's sister?"
Tang Xinwan hesitated for a moment, then pondered, "How about this, have her come to the company for an interview this afternoon. But I'll say this upfront: whether she gets it depends on her performance."
"Alright!"
Ye Cangtian nodded. He had expected this outcome, but there was still a glimmer of hope, wasn't there?
Just as he was about to get up and leave the office, he saw Tang Xinwan suddenly call out to him again.
"Oh, by the way, I've already spoken to Director Zhou. You're still working in the security department!"
Tang Xinwan smiled and said, "The security department has always been short of a supervisor. Starting today, you will officially be the supervisor of the security department!"
"Uh... Wasn't I already before?"
Ye Cangtian was taken aback. He had always thought he was the supervisor in the security department, as he had the final say there.
Tang Xinwan couldn't help but roll her eyes, speechless. "According to company regulations, you haven't even passed your probation period yet. Promoting you and making you official now is already an exception!"
Ye Cangtian was utterly speechless. So, he wasn't even a formal employee before?
However, he then remembered that he hadn't received any salary yet, had he?
Tang Xinwan, seeing his thoughts, couldn't help but smile, "The company paid out salaries last week. I collected yours, and consider it as living expenses at my place for the past period!"
"Also, I'll collect your monthly salary for you from now on. After all, you live at my place and eat and drink here. It's not unreasonable for me to charge you some living expenses, is it?"
"Can I still change my mind now?" Ye Cangtian asked speechlessly.
"It's too late!"
Tang Xinwan wore a triumphant smile and then added, "The security department supervisor earns 6,000 a month. I'll deduct 5,000 yuan a month for living expenses, and the remaining thousand is for your pocket money!"
Ye Cangtian couldn't help but clutch his chest. What a scoundrel!
However, he only scorned Tang Xinwan for a moment. After all, he didn't care about the salary. He wasn't short of money now.
Let alone the fact that he couldn't even recall how much money he had saved in Swiss banks over the years, he still had two million yuan in his card that he hadn't spent.
This two million was from when Tang Xiaowu asked for his help to collect a debt, and he was given a share afterward. He hadn't touched this money yet.
Therefore, Ye Cangtian was indeed not short of money!
...
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Ya arrived at Haitan Pharmaceuticals on time. She had faced many rejections during her job search in the past two days, so she was very happy to get this opportunity.
"Brother Ye, thank you!"
Li Ya was wearing a slightly more mature black uniform today. Although she still appeared a bit youthful, she exuded an aura of competence and spirit.
Despite repeated interview failures, she hadn't given up!
Ye Cangtian smiled, "Don't thank me just yet. Whether you pass the interview still depends on your own performance."
Li Ya nodded. She was actually quite nervous.
She had tried various companies in the past two days. Major companies barely gave her a second glance. Small companies offered her interview opportunities, but because she lacked work experience and a diploma, they all ended in failure.
Haitan Pharmaceuticals, for her, was a major company, one that offered good salaries but had extremely high requirements.
Soon, Li Ya walked directly into the company lobby.
She took a deep breath and approached the receptionist, saying, "Hello, I'm here for an interview!"
"Are you Li Ya?"
The receptionist looked at her, then smiled politely, "The chairman personally requested an interview with you. She asked you to go directly to her office!"
Li Ya was a bit bewildered!
The chairman personally interviewing her?
