My Terrible Life in Those Years

When we were almost home, Lao Liu gave me a strange look.

"You're about to get a beating from that guy surnamed Wu, how come you're acting like nothing happened?"

I chuckled softly.

Actually, I could guess Wu Bo's reaction and his subsequent actions.

But I have no fear. I've only been here a few days.

I've already done quite a few things that make me feel like my trip to Guangzhou wasn't wasted.

Helping Wan Ning and Du Yan, I unintentionally helped the company sign a big deal, and today I also helped the company handle this important matter. Even if I get a scolding from Wu Bo, I think it's all worth it.

Moreover, judging from the worker's inspection results today, this matter will be resolved soon.

Even if he makes me follow this matter all the time, it will only last three to five days.

Sooner or later, I'll have to get back to my normal work routine.

"Hey Lao Liu, if you were in this situation, what would you have done?"

I need someone I can completely confide in and who can help me sort out the whole situation.

To be honest, I've reviewed a lot of materials this week, which has given me a better understanding of the company.

They have the strength, resources, and connections. I don't know if they have a powerful background, but as a pre-IPO company that everyone knows about, it would be almost impossible without strong resources behind them.

I've started to develop a pretty good interest in this company, and I want to stay.

I want to learn properly here.

We discussed this issue time and time again when we graduated:

After graduation, should I first find a small place to eke out a living and slowly endure the hardship, or should I fight tooth and nail to find a bigger platform to clean toilets first?

Old Liu belongs to the former category. He came here before graduating and was just starting his internship. He found some small companies to work for first, and after understanding the company situation and the income, he started to keep changing jobs.

I hope to find a more ideal company and platform through repeated job changes.

Until I switched to this company that sells building materials conduits directly from the manufacturer.

A typical project engineering company that doesn't make a sale for three years, but then makes enough to live off for three years. A single underground project, once secured, can be worth hundreds of thousands, or even millions. With commissions, they can make a fortune.

However, these orders are demanding, difficult, and require frequent socializing, resulting in a high turnover rate among staff.

Some employees may have been with the company for six months and not be able to close a single deal.

Because of this nature, it's relatively difficult to get orders, the sales period is long, and the basic salary won't be low. You have to make sure that employees can still eat when they don't have any orders, right?

So, Lao Liu managed to stabilize his situation until he was assigned to Shenzhen.

In comparison, after comparing various aspects, I think that GG has a significant advantage in all aspects.

Given our company's position in the industry and the resources we've secured in prime locations, we largely don't need to cater to or beg our clients.

This has greatly reduced the difficulty for us in generating orders.

This has directly resulted in our company's employees earning significantly more than the average level.

Just look at the benefits the company provides to its employees and you'll understand. Project teams have all kinds of vehicles for transportation.

After officially joining the company, there are various subsidies and allowances, both big and small.

Not to mention Aunt Shu, General Manager Liu gave her a large SUV worth over a million yuan as a work vehicle, and a million-yuan annual salary was a given. Old Liu said that car was a Dior!

Therefore, all these factors have made me more and more determined.

I want to stay here, work hard, strive, and achieve the job and life I desire.

Aunt Shu, if I hadn't bumped into you and broken your shoe, I wouldn't have had this chance!

Good benefits mean that a prestigious company like Glory starts recruiting at a high level. I certainly had an element of luck involved.

However, his relationship with Aunt Shu was not actually that solid, and the so-called "Little General Manager Jiang" was utter nonsense.

Given that the company's interests are clearly the primary focus, if Wu Bo doesn't overstep any boundaries, I think it's unlikely she'd have any open conflict with him because of me.

This time they disagreed, and I steadfastly carried out her instructions, but that doesn't mean she will continue to take care of me steadfastly from now on.

I'm not naive enough to actually think that once she's on my pillow, she can let me lean on her forever.

We still need to handle and solve many problems on our own.

That's why I asked Lao Liu for advice and opinions so carefully.

"What if it were me? Don't be ridiculous. If it were me, the second-in-command wouldn't even call me. Why would he answer my call and give me such detailed instructions? He would definitely handle it according to the normal requirements of his superiors."

He's absolutely right.

I chuckled. I have to admit, my tendency to have both bad luck and good fortune go hand in hand sometimes really makes it hard for me to tell whether it's a good thing or a bad thing!

"I think you still need to find an opportunity to improve your relationship with your boss. Don't think that just because you're having an affair with that so-called second-in-command, that woman who's been talking about her in her teens and forties and fifties, you can disregard your boss. That's a major taboo in the workplace! Of course, for a gigolo like you, this path might be the right one!"

I was furious: "You're a whore, a gigolo! When it comes to women, you always pull that line!"

"You're getting angry now, aren't you? You've hit the nail on the head, haven't you? Tell me honestly, why did you call her Aunt Shu?"

This guy gets into a super good state when it comes to this part, and his memory is unbeatable.

The conversation veered off course instantly. Expecting any useful advice from this idiot was highly unlikely.

Do you remember Aunt Luo from school?

Old Liu's eyes were filled with little stars.

He made a big, round hand gesture.

"She's that big??? That can't be, right?"

I thought back for a moment, recalling the outline: "Not much different!"

"So you call her 'Aunt Shu' to her face too? Does she even know what 'Aunt' means?"

I was afraid that if I told him, I would scare him, so I decided against it.

"How could I dare to do it face-to-face? I only called out because I was in a hurry on the phone. I wouldn't know what it meant."

They laughed and joked around for a while.

After going to the stadium and then to the hospital, it was already past five o'clock when I returned to Xiancun.

"Shall we have chicken hot pot again tonight?" Old Liu had really fallen in love with this dish.

I glared at him and said, "Are you really addicted to ripping me off? I've only been working for a few days! I don't have much money to begin with, and this morning I spent several tens of dollars on coffee because of Du Yan. It hurts me to death. Let's eat something else tonight!"

"Oh right, and that Snow Lotus Du Yan! Should we invite her to dinner tonight?"

That jerk, he just loves giving these girls my username.

Seeing that she looked a bit pale lately, I suggested the name Snow Lotus.

I thought for a moment: "Let her have some peace and quiet. While we have this time, let's go to an internet cafe and save the data from the camera. We might need it later."

Old Liu slapped his forehead: "Hey, you're so observant. I almost forgot about this because of the uniformed girl and the rich and beautiful girl."
