Chapter 15 Chi Yu
At five o'clock sharp, Song Youan appeared in the lobby of the Lanting Club.

The surroundings were filled with a subtle, luxurious aromatherapy scent, accompanied by soft, soothing piano music, instantly bringing a sense of relaxation and tranquility.

The lobby is decorated in an exquisite yet understated style, with black and gold as the main colors, and the subtle luxury showcases high-end taste.

Before Song Youan could even take a good look around, a pretty waitress stepped forward to offer her her assistance: "Welcome to Lanting Club. Are you looking for someone, miss? Do you need any help?"

The Lanting Club has many rules. Apart from annual fee members, anyone else needs to be escorted by a member to enter.

However, if you are looking for someone, and you can accurately state the member's name, the staff can help to notify them.

"I'm looking for Chi Yu," Song Youan said softly, gently removing her sunglasses.

"Are you Miss Song?" the young girl asked tentatively.

Seeing Song Youan nod, she quickly raised her hand to lead the way: "President Chi is already waiting for you. This way, please."

In the coffee shop on the west side of the lobby, Chi Yu, dressed in a sharp suit, sat by the window, intently looking at a document in his hand. He only slowly looked up when Song Youan sat down in front of him.

His short, choppy hair covered his eyebrows, making his skin appear exceptionally fair and his eyes look even more deep-set.

"Miss Song?"

Chi Yu spoke, his voice exactly the same as on the phone—deep and magnetic.

Song Youan nodded, and the two of them almost simultaneously concealed the surprise in their eyes, both feeling that the other was younger than they had imagined.

Before Song Youan could speak, a green wave of light suddenly appeared before her eyes, and the next second, Chi Yu's personal information appeared in front of her.

Name: Chi Yu

Sex: Male
Age: 28 years old
Place of origin: Jinghai City
Education: Master of Finance, Imperial College London
Position: Current General Manager of Lanting Club in Jinghai City

The above was all ordinary information, but when Song Youan continued to read the last two items, she was still shocked and widened her eyes.

Ability rating: 95.8
Reputation level: 99.9
Such a high level of credibility suggests that one can completely trust the person in front of them?

At this moment, Chi Yu pushed a stack of documents in front of Song You'an and said meticulously, "Ms. Song, you have just taken over Lanting and may not have a comprehensive understanding of the situation. Here are some documents and financial statements for the first half of the year, which I have prepared in advance. You can take a look when you have time."

Song Youan nodded and looked at Chi Yu, asking, "Are you the highest-ranking person here right now?"

Chi Yu looked at Song You'an with confusion, and Song You'an quickly added, "Besides me, are you the person with the highest real power within Lanting?"

Chi Yu nodded: "It's me."

So Song Youan said directly, "In this way, all departments will report their work to you, and you will then assign tasks to other departments after you have finished processing them. If there are any matters that you cannot decide and require my intervention, you can report to me separately."

She pointed at Chi Yu and then at herself: "The entire club will deal with you, but you will deal with me alone."

There was no other way. She knew that this would definitely increase Chi Yu's workload considerably, but she herself knew nothing about business. Since the system said that she could completely trust Chi Yu, she could only temporarily put him through the hardship and at least let herself learn and study first.

What is your current monthly salary?

Feeling guilty, Song Youan decided to give Chi Yu a raise on the spot.

Chi Yu was still processing Song Youan's words when he blurted out, "I get an annual salary."

Song Youan coughed lightly and asked again, "How much is that in a year?"

“350 million,” Chi Yu said.

Song Youan nodded: "I'll raise it to five million a year, plus benefits and year-end bonuses. Thank you for your hard work."

Even someone as composed and reserved as Chi Yu was stunned. His starting salary was 280 million yuan, and it took him four years to reach his current 350 million yuan. And now, the new boss, upon taking over, immediately offered him a 150 million yuan raise?

But it was obvious to him that Miss Song was not joking.

Pulling himself back to reality, Chi Yu cautiously inquired, "Does Miss Song mean that she wants to hand over the entire club to me?"

"Is there a problem?" Song Youan asked, raising an eyebrow.

Chi Yu quickly shook his head. A five million annual salary was no problem at all. Besides, the Lanting Club was already very well-established and didn't have as many international projects as other large companies. Even if he was busy, it was all within the club and not particularly strenuous.

"So I won't meet with the other managers. I want to keep a low profile. Does Manager Chi understand what I mean?"

“Understood, Miss Song, don’t worry.” Chi Yu nodded, but then seemed to think of something and added, “However, you don’t have to see the others, but there is one person you still need to get to know.”

"Who?" Song Youan sat up straight curiously.

Chi Yu said, "Our legal advisor at Lanting is Mr. Ye Deming."

Song Youan didn't know why she wanted to get to know this lawyer, but since Chi Yu had said so, it proved to be necessary.

"Give me Mr. Ye's WeChat and phone number, and I'll invite him to dinner alone later."

After saying that, Song Youan remembered the important matter: "Oh right, I need to arrange for a friend to work at the club."

"No problem, which department would you like to assign me to?"

Song Youan said, "For the coffee shop, let Lanting's best barista personally train her and teach her how to make coffee."

Chi Yu: "..."

At 5:30, Cheng Muzi arrived on time, wearing the new clothes that Song Youan had bought for her. She thought that since she was here to apply for a job at Lanting Club, she should be a little more formal.

There was no interview at all; Chi Yu personally led the two to the coffee shop on the eighth floor.

Cheng Muzi looked around excitedly. The interior decoration was so beautiful. The walls with flowing water looked like glowing silk under the reflection of the crystal warm lights.

"Where is Ah Sheng?"

Chi Yu asked the staff at the coffee shop.

"She's changing clothes in the back. It's time for her shift to end, Mr. Chi."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall, thin young man walked out from behind. He had changed out of his work clothes and was wearing casual clothes, clearly indicating that he was about to leave work.

"President Chi." Pan Sheng greeted Chi Yu proactively.

Chi Yu said directly, "This is Mu Zi. She will be with you here starting tomorrow. Take good care of her and teach her."

Her words caused her colleagues who overheard her to exchange bewildered glances, and many looked at Cheng Muzi with suspicion.

What's their background and identity? Why was they personally brought in by President Chi to join the company?

Pan Sheng nodded and glanced at Cheng Muzi: "Okay, then come to work at 9:30 tomorrow morning sharp."

“No problem.” Cheng Muzi was overjoyed and looked at Song Youan excitedly.

Song Youan smiled at her; as long as Mu Zi was happy, she was happy.
