Chapter 389: Chapter 236: Gathering Emotion Gold’s Offer_4 Chapter 389: Chapter 236: Gathering Emotion Gold’s Offer_4 At most, they just thought her family had so money.
But suddenly leaping from receptionist to a high executive in a fund company, being able to interact with their chairman on an equal footing, brought a completely different level of awe.
Hao Yanping clenched her fists tightly, bowing her head, not daring to make eye contact with Lin Muxue.
Even as her fingernails dug into her flesh, jealousy drove her mad, yet she was overwheld with fear.
“Alright, comrades, we’ll get together when we have the ti, I believe we will et again,” Lin Muxue picked up a large tote bag, her gaze sweeping over the familiar faces of her coworkers.
Her heart swelled with pride, and she was overco with emotion.
Was this the true feeling of showing off? It was incredibly satisfying!
In the past, she had no confidence; when it ca down to it, she was all bark and no bite.
But now she had truly beco the high-earning finance professional she had always dread of being, with a million in annual salary and a senior assistant on the committee.
Although she had not yet crossed social classes, at this mont, she had taken a crucial step forward.
Her social status utterly dwarfed everyone before her.
“Ping, you also need to keep working hard,” Lin Muxue’s gaze lingered on Hao Yanping for a mont, feeling sowhat nostalgic.
If she had not held her ground against the temptation of the executive Xu Desheng back then, she might have ended up just like Hao Yanping.
Even if she had t Tang Song later on, she wouldn’t have been worthy to approach him.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Muxue calmly walked through the crowd and out the office door.
She faintly felt as if the sea was wide for the fish to leap, and the sky was high for the birds to fly.
…
Huayun Center Building B, Light and Shadow dia.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Wen Ruan slowly put down her phone, her gaze complex as she looked outside.
Just now, her university classmate, forr coworker, and best friend Sun Simin had called from Imperial City.
She was getting married.
The six of them from the dormitory had always been close.
Up to now, she was the only one who hadn’t married yet.
After graduating from Imperial Normal University, three got into graduate school and one beca a civil servant.
She and Sun Simin joined the sa company and started to face the harshness and trials of society.
Even now, she could still recall those tis.
She and Sun Simin rented the master bedroom in Old Palace, near South Fifth Ring; they rode the subway back and forth every day, getting off at Liangma Bridge station on Line 10.
She bought a five-yuan pancake and fruit wrap, eating it on her way to the company building.
At lunch, she ate a 14-yuan boxed al in the alley across the street.
In the evenings, she often worked overti past 9 pm, leaning against the subway window, thinking about unfinished plans.
She persevered with this life for five years.
At the beginning, she too had grand ambitions and endless dreams for her future.
But a series of setbacks at work and workplace bullying within the company left her disheartened and increasingly in poor spirits.
Her skin worsened, her figure changed, and she often had emotional breakdowns.
In the end, she said goodbye to Imperial City and returned to Yan City to work steadily.
Through traveling, cycling, gaming, and fitness, she gradually brought herself back to a good ntal state.
But Sun Simin was luckier than her, landing a good leader.
She had now been promoted to departnt director and had found a capable and loving boyfriend.
She was truly happy for her best friend’s success.
“Wen Ruan, Wen Ruan!” A calling voice ca from behind.
Wen Ruan quickly snapped out of her mories, turned around, and smiled, “What is it, Shasha?”
Shasha pointed towards the direction of the leader’s office and whispered, “Director Ning is looking for you.”
“OK, I got it,” Wen Ruan exhaled and walked towards the departnt director’s office.
Knock, knock, knock—
“Co in.”
Wen Ruan pushed the door open and smiled, “Director Ning, you wanted to see ?”
“Take a seat!” Ning Song gestured with his hand, smiling, “It’s good news. I rember you used to work in Imperial City, right?”
“Yes, I worked there for five years.”
“Our company’s branch in Imperial City just received a super big order from one of the top dostic companies. To show our importance, headquarters plans to send a few core staff over to assist for a few days. You’ve been with us for two years now and have consistently perford very well; this is a great opportunity. Once this deal is confird, your rank will be promoted to middle managent. I will talk to the big boss and get you promoted to departnt head.”
Upon hearing this, Wen Ruan was slightly startled and asked, “Around when will this be?”
“The 21st, next Wednesday, any problem?”
Wen Ruan pursed her lips and nodded, “No problem, I can go!”
The timing was quite coincidental, exactly during the ti when Sun Simin was getting married.
