Vol V Chapter 37

"Lin, I must admit that you're undoubtedly the most outstanding person in our sales department, but it wouldn't be appropriate for you to jump two levels and become the Regional Director. However, if you can secure Miss Liu Yan's endorsement, I'll appoint you as the Deputy Sales Manager. Although this position is officially lower than Miss Sun's, your status will be equal. Let's see who can deliver exceptional performance; that person will be promoted to the Director's position," Mr. Wang explained. "So, what do you say, Lin? If you can land the endorsement, I'll provide you with the appointment letter as a Manager in no time!"

"Alright." I breathed a sigh of relief.

"I will be back at the company tomorrow and appoint you as the leader for Miss Liu Yan's endorsement," he added.

After that, I exchanged a few pleasantries with him before finally ending the call.

Back in the room, I chatted with Mr. Yu, Lan Xinmei, and the others before finally leaving the Shangri-La Hotel.

Once I got home, I reviewed everything that had happened. When I realized there was nothing amiss, I finally lay down on the bed.

However, at that moment, Fang Fang sent me a WeChat message.

"Xiaonan, your cousin didn't come back to the hotel tonight. We're on our honeymoon in the Maldives. It's been two hours since he left."

I frowned.

No way, could it be that my cousin be back to his old ways this soon? Did he even manage to find a prostitute in the Maldives?

It could not be possible, right?

"Fang Fang, can't you reach my cousin?" I quickly asked.

"That's right. I don't know where he went," Fang Fang replied.

"Why don't you wait a little longer? What are you doing now?"

"It's a shame I'm not there with you. Otherwise, I'd definitely make you feel comfortable," Fang Fang said at the end.

About ten minutes later, Fang Fang informed me that my cousin had returned and immediately cut off contact.

Feeling heartened that Fang Fang thought of me during her honeymoon, I couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed about how busy my wife always seemed to be whenever I called her. Christmas was still two months away. It felt like a lifetime.

The next morning, Mr. Wang called me to the company's third conference room for a meeting. When I arrived at the company, I saw Sun Dan.

Sun Dan was wearing a sea-blue professional suit today, and her long wavy hair cascaded down her right shoulder. When she saw me, she smiled.

"Good morning, Miss Sun," I quickly greeted her.

"Lin Nan, not bad. You were in the limelight last night," Sun Dan sneered.

I shrugged nonchalantly, but I was inwardly furious.

Darn it, don't be so arrogant. The night before yesterday at the hotel was just a warm-up. I'll teach you a lesson!

"Sorry to amuse you, Miss Sun, but Mr. Wang asked me to go to the third conference room for a meeting today. Did he call you?" I said with a smile.

"Third conference room? What meeting?" Sun Dan frowned.

"Go ask him yourself." I strode into the elevator.

Sun Dan immediately followed me into the elevator. Only the two of us were inside.

As the elevator doors closed, I found myself facing Sun Dan. Her shapely buttocks were right in front of me. I couldn't wait to get close to her and show her my strength.

"Lin Nan, don't get cocky. Even if you were in the limelight last night, securing the endorsement won't be easy." The elevator door opened with a 'ding,' and before Sun Dan left, she left me with a parting shot.

Tsk!

I pursed my lips. When I recalled how Sun Dan pleaded with me that day, I felt satisfied. She probably still had no idea that I was the one threatening her.

I headed toward the conference room. Once I entered, I immediately spotted my colleagues from the advertising and public relations departments. Mr. Yu and Lan Xinmei nodded in greeting as I took my seat.

We waited for a short while before Mr. Wang and Miss Zhao walked into the meeting room.

Mr. Wang was wearing a golden suit, while Miss Zhao had a more eye-catching attire. She was dressed in branded clothes and sported a new watch sparkling with diamonds.

"Good morning, Mr. Wang!"

"Good morning, Miss Zhao!"

Everyone stood up in unison, and only when Mr. Wang gestured for us to sit did we take our seats again.

"Everyone, this time, our company's endorsement is of utmost importance. It's directly related to our brand's influence," Mr. Wang got straight to the point.

"Mr. Wang is right. We'll give it our all!" Mr. Yu quickly responded.

"That's correct, Mr. Wang. We'll support it too," Lan Xinmei added.
