Urban Life: I Became Jiang Nansun's Landlord

Page 290

Work is important, Lin Yi acknowledged.

But if you can be lazy, then be lazy and let those who are more capable manage things.

He can't just not see them for days because of company reasons, can he? Otherwise, they'd come looking for him.

Therefore, what Lin Yi needs to do is to find the right balance between the two.

He not only contributes to the company's development, but also doesn't neglect his girlfriends.

After Lin Yi finished speaking, everyone raised their glasses and drank them down in one gulp.

Next, Lin Yi, Yang Ke, and Zhu Suosuo were all toasted to varying degrees.

Zhu Suosuo was the least affected because she was a girl, so everyone was more or less considerate of her.

As for Lin Yi and Yang Ke, they drank a lot.

Lin Yi was alright; he has a high alcohol tolerance, and with these employees around, they didn't dare to offer him too many drinks.

Yang Ke wasn't so lucky. Of the three company executives, one was the absolute leader of the company, so he couldn't be urged to drink; the other was a girl, so he couldn't be urged to drink too much.

So, of the three, only Yang Ke remains.

As salespeople, we are all quite familiar with Yang Ke's alcohol tolerance.

Before long, Yang Ke's face turned red from drinking.

Lin Yi couldn't help but smile when he saw this. Yang Ke had drunk so much just to shield him from drinking.

After finishing their drinks, everyone went back to work.

You see, today is their first day at work, and there are a lot of things they need to prepare.

Led by Zhu Suosuo, everyone returned to the company and began work.

After these people left, Lin Yi smiled and said, "Get up, they're gone."

Yang Ke remained unmoved.

Lin Yi said, "Not getting up? Then I, Lin Yi, am not going to help you anymore."

"No, Mr. Lin, if I could see Ye Jinyan's angry face, I would have hit the jackpot."

Yang Ke sat up abruptly, showing no signs of being drunk at all.

Lin Yi crossed his arms and said with a smile, "Not bad, you're sleeping so soundly. I thought you were really sleepy."

Yang Ke sat up and said with a smile, "President Lin, I am indeed a little sleepy, but I am not drunk. This little bit of alcohol is nothing."

“Okay, then you go to the company and rest for a while. I’ll pick you up at seven o’clock tonight,” Lin Yi said.

"This...isn't that inappropriate?" Yang Ke said.

“What’s wrong with that? The company will need you to manage it in the future, so I don’t have anything to do anyway,” Lin Yi said.

Yang Ke listened, deeply moved.

Yang Ke stood up and solemnly said to Lin Yi, "President Lin, you've given me such an opportunity. If I don't do a good job, I'll be letting you down."

"President Lin, please rest assured, I will definitely not let you down."

"Ah."

……

Noon time.

News about Lin Yi started circulating in the industry.

"Yang Ke was really something today, daring to offend Ye Jinyan."

"Lin Yi is a completely different person now. No decoration company in the country has been able to do what he has done."

"Is Lin Yi trying to get involved in the real estate industry?"

Ms. Jiang's Decoration Company.

Hearing the news from within their circle, and knowing that things had escalated to such a great extent, Miss Jiang and Su Mingyu naturally found out as well.

Jiang Nansun asked, "What is his purpose in doing this?"

Su Mingyu was somewhat surprised and whispered, "You're his girlfriend, and you didn't know? How would I know?"

Jiang Nansun shook his head and said, "Suosuo told me about this a while ago."

But I didn't expect things to escalate this much.

After Jiang Nansun finished speaking, he couldn't help but mutter, "Honestly, given his personality, this shouldn't be the case."

"Shouldn't what?" Su Mingyu asked.

“It shouldn’t have blown up this much,” Jiang Nansun said. “I’ve been with him for so long, I know him very well.”

He's someone who hates trouble the most; given his personality, how could he possibly cause such a big fuss?

Su Mingyu smiled and said, "So, Lin Yi did this with a purpose?"

“It should be, otherwise it wouldn’t make sense and wouldn’t fit his personality,” Jiang Nansun said.

Su Mingyu thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Miss Jiang's decoration company has negotiated with Jingyan Group many times, but all negotiations have ended in failure."

"Nan Sun, is he doing this to get revenge for you?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nansun burst out laughing.

Jiang Nansun laughed and said, "Don't be silly, Mingyu. Let me tell you, I've been working for so long, and I'm no longer a girl who doesn't know anything."

If he said something like that, he'd obviously be trying to comfort me, and I wouldn't believe him.

Su Mingyu smiled. Over the past few months, Nan Sun had made great progress.

Su Mingyu said, "Based on my understanding of him, he may really be interested in real estate. Otherwise, Lin Yi would not have dared to offend a real estate tycoon."

"What? He wants to get involved in the real estate industry?" Jiang Nansun was astonished.

"Well, what are the downsides and benefits of Lin Yi doing this?"

"Actually, with a little analysis, you can probably guess it," Su Mingyu said.

There are many downsides to what she's doing.

For example, it would attract the Jingyan Group's furious retaliation, and the Jingyan Group would cause them trouble everywhere.

But what good is it?

Jiang Nansun thought for a while and said, "Mingyu, do you mean that he did this to step on Jingyan Group to rise to power and let everyone know about Huihuang Real Estate in the shortest possible time?"

“Besides that, I really can’t think of any other reason,” Su Mingyu said.

Jiang Nansun said, "I'll ask when I get home tonight."

“I’ll go too,” Su Mingyu said with a smile, “because I’m curious too.”

"Okay, let's go together."

After spending so much time together, Jiang Nansun and Su Mingyu got along very well.

Su Mingyu also often stayed at Lin Yi's house, since Lin Yi's place was spacious.

Of course, Lin Yi would restrain himself whenever Su Mingyu went there.

On one occasion, Lin Yi got so excited that he insisted on having a meeting with Nan Sun. The meeting was a bit too loud, which disturbed Su Mingyu, who was resting next door.

That day, Su Mingyu didn't sleep well all night, and she still had dark circles under her eyes the next day.

Because of this, Su Mingyu laughed at her for a long time.

However, their relationship improved significantly after that incident.

Now they are colleagues fighting side by side, and Jiang Nansun will no longer hold Su Mingyu back.

……

Seven o'clock in the afternoon.

Lin Yi drove to Brilliant Real Estate on time and picked up Yang Ke.

Yang Ke changed his clothes. He wore formal attire when working, but casual clothes when he came out.

Yang Ke saw Lin Yi's car, opened the door, and got in.

Lin Yi said with a smile, "Having the boss drive you, Mr. Yang, that's impressive."

Upon hearing this, Yang Ke quickly smiled and said, "That's why I say I have a good leader."

"Don't worry, Mr. Lin. I will work hard to manage the company well and repay you with my utmost effort while you drive for me this time."

"Okay, you said it yourself," Lin Yi said with a smile.

Lin Yi liked this answer very much.

If it were someone else, they might panic immediately upon hearing their boss ask that question.

But Yang Ke didn't. He was only slightly taken aback, but quickly figured out how to answer.

It must be said that Yang Ke is very shrewd and adept at dealing with people.

Lin Yi arrived at a hotel ten minutes early, as agreed.

Upon entering, I found no one inside.

Lin Yi took Yang Ke inside and waited for a while, since there was no rush.

Besides, there are still ten minutes until the agreed time.

Time slowly passed, and when the appointed time arrived, Lin Yi and Yang Ke did not see Ye Jinyan.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Yang Ke, what do you think Ye Jinyan's purpose is in doing this?"

"What else could it be? Giving us a taste of our power."

"Mr. Lin, I'm so sorry, I've dragged you into this because of my situation," Yang Ke said.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "It has nothing to do with you."
