My Terrible Life in Those Years

Just as Aunt Shu finished her phone call, the office door was gently pushed open.

Ye Tian, ​​the new manager of Sales Department One, walked in looking radiant!

A person is in high spirits when they have a happy occasion, and that perfectly describes him right now.

He was suddenly promoted from a second-level department to a first-level department. Not to mention the implicit improvement in his status, his bonuses and commissions alone were at least two to three times better than before. How could he not be happy?

The pile of silver coins was about to be stacked in front of him, and he didn't laugh out loud, which shows he's quite the man to hold back.

He greeted Aunt Shu first, and then sat down on the sofa opposite us.

Zhou Tong and I exchanged a glance. It turned out that they hadn't just called for us from the Emergency Management Department, but also for Ye Tian.

Ye Tian was in high spirits today, greeting us with a smile.

Seeing Zhou Tong there, his eyes lit up.

"Xiao Zhou Tong, and Jiang Ning, this is the first time we've met and sat down to chat together like this!"

Hmm, that sounds so old-fashioned, why is he acting like a leader?

I don't think I'm in your department anymore!

I was starting to have doubts. Aunt Shu transferred Ye Tian to the sales department, and I thought he was exceptionally capable. But his very first words today made me think he was being overly pretentious, or perhaps he was so overjoyed that he felt more invincible than I was?

As for their competence, I'm not sure yet.

But the way he looked at Zhou Tong, I felt something was off.

Why does it have a hint of Zhong Yang looking at Du Yan in this?

"Manager Ye, congratulations! Please take good care of us in the future!" I replied with a smile, emphasizing the words "we."

Yes, Zhou Tong is now in the same department as me.

Whether from a man's perspective or from a colleague's perspective, I feel I should be on the front.

Besides, this little Zhou Tong has been a great help to me in many ways since I first came here.

It's clear that this pretty girl isn't scheming, and they get along well.

Let alone her, I would extend a hand of friendship to Xiao Wanning, whom I just met by chance, let alone a pretty girl who will be eating from the same pot with me in the future!

Zhou Tong noticed a flicker in Ye Tian's gaze. This guy wasn't like this back in the Second Division!

Let me say something first to smooth things over, and then smile and respond.

It was clear that she agreed with my use of the word "us".

I used to work as an assistant in Sales Department 1. To be honest, all my colleagues in Sales Department 1 were wary of me. They all treated me like a spy sent by Aunt Shu, and I had no sense of belonging at all.

Now that I'm in the same group as Xiao Zhoutong, the feeling is noticeably different from before.

It's comfortable and relaxing, and for the time being, I don't have to be caught in the middle of all the unspeakable things between Aunt Shu, Wu Bo, Sister Guan, Ye Tian, ​​and even President Liu.

I am someone who completely dislikes internal conflict, and in fact, I quite hate it.

I wholeheartedly agree with Aunt Shu assigning me to this department!

At this moment, Aunt Shu put down the phone and came over.

Everyone stood up.

She was in a good mood today, and waved her hand, saying, "We're all family, please sit down!"

The three of us sat down obediently and listened to her speak.

"I've called you all here today to discuss a few things."

Ye Tian immediately opened his notebook, ready to take notes.

Zhou Tong and I exchanged a glance. Oh my god, we weren't prepared for this!

They have absolutely no experience.

Look at Ye Tian, ​​he quickly opened his notebook, picked up his pen, and prepared to write down every word of Aunt Shu's words. He was quite devout!

I thought to myself: These shoes are polished nicely, no wonder they got you transferred here!

Well, putting everything else aside, at least this performance is quite satisfactory to Aunt Shu.

I quickly tried to salvage the situation: "Shall we go get our notebooks and pens?"

Aunt Shu smiled as she watched Ye Tian's actions and listened to my words.

"No need, it's not a formal conference. Just remember it in your mind and heart!"

When it came to work, Aunt Shu's face became much more serious and earnest.

"Ye Tian, ​​you've just started. Although the workflow is similar, the clients are very different. Many of them are clients that Manager Wu has served for many years. If you have any questions, be sure to ask Manager Wu for advice. Get up to speed as soon as possible!"

Ye Tian kept nodding, his pen moving even faster. His writing speed was damn fast; had he taken a shorthand class?

"You need to focus on the newly established Xiancun redevelopment project in Sales Department One. Jiang Ning and Zhou Tong are both from the original project team. If I don't have any special work to handle on my end, they can help you with the project team for now!"

After saying that, I didn't feel anything was wrong. Anyway, I was already somewhat familiar with the project team, so it was normal to help out.

Zhou Tong's face lit up with joy. He had thought that the project team's bonus was gone because of the transfer, but Aunt Shu's words brought back his hope and the money.

This is just a small meeting; otherwise, Xiao Zhou Tong would immediately jump up, hug Aunt Shu, and kiss her a few times!

I wouldn't dare, I'm afraid she'll step on me!

"They are familiar with some situations, so ask them more questions about their circumstances."

"Especially Jiang Ning, he knows more about some details than I do. You need to communicate with him more! Don't underestimate him just because he's young!"

She smiled and squinted at my face as she spoke, but I always felt that her words and eyes were directed at me.

Look, kid Jiang, the debts I've incurred will be settled little by little. You'd better behave yourself, okay?

Ye Tian quickly agreed.

"Jiangning colleague, how about we meet up sometime after the meeting to discuss the specifics of this project?"

Before I could agree, Aunt Shu continued, "I have something to discuss with them, you go ahead and take care of it. You can make an appointment after they're done!"

Ye Tian smiled and agreed, then left the stage.

Looking at his back and his steps, I could see that he was indeed a bit unsteady!

"Okay, now it's just the three of us, colleagues from the same department."

Aunt Shu laughed heartily.

"What exactly is the job of our department?"

Xiao Zhou Tong quickly asked a question.

"Good question, Jiang Ning. This Zhou Tong thinks faster than you do, doesn't he?"

I cursed inwardly, "Auntie, does she have to hold a grudge so obviously? Why does she have to drag me down with everything?"

"That's right, Zhou Tong is beautiful, kind-hearted, young, and quick-witted—that's obvious!"

With Xiao Zhou Tong around, I'm not afraid of her playing a trick on me. She's not stupid enough to step on my foot in front of her, is she?

Aunt Shu choked for half a second.

Obviously, I'm saying she's old and holds grudges. What's the use of just being pretty?

Isn't it just meant to be used as a pillow?

This is... a bit infuriating! Even after I finished saying it, I felt that way myself.
