80: Chapter 80: Slapped in the Face 80: Chapter 80: Slapped in the Face Seeing Ye Xuan wasn’t being serious and was flirting with her again, Yuan Mengmeng’s pretty face blushed. Then, she sized him up and down, and seeing that Ye Xuan was perfectly fine, she immediately felt relieved and said, “You offended Vice President Lin yesterday, and you disappeared for the entire afternoon. I thought he had retaliated by firing you…” “Hehe, little Mengmeng, you were really worried about me, huh? Don’t worry, as long as I don’t want to leave, he wouldn’t dare fire me!” Ye Xuan said. Yuan Mengmeng pouted slightly, somewhat reproachful, “But he’s the vice president, and you’re just a security guard. How could it be possible that he wouldn’t dare to fire you? Big Brother Ye, why are you so nonchalant every time?” “Because I have little Mengmeng’s blessing, I believe that I will be safe and sound.” Ye Xuan smiled and looked at Yuan Mengmeng seriously. Yuan Mengmeng’s cheeks turned even redder. If it were anyone else saying this, she would definitely be angry. But when Ye Xuan said it, she didn’t feel any dissatisfaction; on the contrary, she was very happy inside. Watching the blushing and silent Yuan Mengmeng, Ye Xuan cleared his throat and said, “Little Mengmeng, you haven’t answered my question yet.” “Ah? What… What question?” “Which side of my face is handsomer?” “I… seaʀᴄh thё Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. I don’t know.” Yuan Mengmeng stammered, looking downwards, her cheeks growing even redder, not daring to meet Ye Xuan’s gaze. She thought to herself, Big Brother Ye is really not serious, insisting on asking such a shameless question! “Hehe, of course, the left side is handsomer!” Ye Xuan said, shaking his head. “Why?” Yuan Mengmeng asked, curious. “Because, at this moment, my left face is facing a beautiful woman. She can see this devastatingly handsome profile of mine, so, the left face is handsomer!” Ye Xuan winked at Yuan Mengmeng as he spoke very seriously. Yuan Mengmeng’s cheeks blushed with shyness, and she coyly glanced at Ye Xuan, her heart feeling as sweet as if she had eaten honey. Of course, my right side is even handsomer! Because I have a beauty mark on the right corner of my mouth… Ye Xuan cheekily thought to himself. “Big Brother Ye, I brought you breakfast. It was… it was made by my own hands!” Yuan Mengmeng held out the lunch box she had been carrying in front of Ye Xuan. Breakfast? Ye Xuan touched his nose, looking at the lunch box Yuan Mengmeng handed over, but inside he felt a strange sensation. What exactly was happening today? Two beauties wanted to cook for him, Qin Lan this morning and now Yuan Mengmeng! And seeing Ye Xuan staring at her, Yuan Mengmeng’s pretty face flushed a little. However, Yuan Mengmeng noticed that Ye Xuan was also holding a breakfast and after a slight shock, a hint of disappointment flashed across her face. “So, Big Brother Ye already had breakfast…” Yuan Mengmeng felt a touch of sadness inside. “Little Mengmeng is so good to me, hehe.” Ye Xuan glanced at the lunch box; even though it was just a very ordinary breakfast, it was, after all, Yuan Mengmeng’s thoughtfulness, and he chuckled and accepted it. Seeing Ye Xuan accepting her breakfast, Yuan Mengmeng revealed a happy smile. “Little Mengmeng, I’ll give you this breakfast of mine!” Two breakfasts were too much for his wife to eat, so Ye Xuan stuffed the one made by Qin Lan into Yuan Mengmeng’s hands. As the saying goes, it’s polite to reciprocate—there was no reason to let someone cook for him for nothing! Yuan Mengmeng did not expect Ye Xuan to give his portion of the breakfast to her, and, not knowing what came to her mind, her pretty face suddenly flew up with a flush. Exchanging breakfast with big brother Ye, now that’s a move reserved for those who are truly close. Looks like my status in big brother Ye’s heart has risen once again! Go, Mengmeng, you’re the best! Keep it up! Xu Jun, who watched this scene unfold, felt as if he was about to explode with rage, his eyes blazing with fury. He had asked Yuan Mengmeng for breakfast, and she had refused, only to give it to this security guard. Moreover, the two of them made this intimate exchange of breakfast right in front of him, which felt like a slap in his face! “What’s so great about a security guard that he’s worth your care!” Xu Jun’s eyes were extremely dark, his heart filled with discontent. Familiar scenes, that spot should have been his, but this time the male lead had changed! It was now some lowly security guard without any status, and he had become just a passerby alpha, beta, gamma… This disturbed Xu Jun greatly; a security guard had stolen the spotlight that was supposed to be his, something Xu Jun absolutely could not tolerate. “Kid, you’re new here, right? How come I’ve never seen you before?” Xu Jun walked over, looking down on Ye Xuan from on high, with a thunderous presence, as if he were on a crusade. Ye Xuan looked up, puzzled, “What do you do? Are you a cleaner? There’s trash here, hurry up and clean it for me!” Pfft! Hearing this, the people around almost burst into laughter. Damn it! Did this security guard just call Xu Jun a cleaner!? Was he deliberately playing dumb, or did he really not recognize this sales manager, who was the talk of the town these days? A giggle escaped from some girls in the crowd, who were sales department employees; they had witnessed Ye Xuan making Lin Zifeng back down yesterday, and here was another clueless person looking for trouble. Hearing Ye Xuan’s taunt, Yuan Mengmeng couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh! Xu Jun’s face turned beet red; even a mere security guard didn’t take him seriously. He glared at Ye Xuan with a domineering look, “Listen up, my name is Xu Jun. I was the top sales performer of last year in the sales department, having created a personal sales record of nearly 20 million for the group! And you, just a little security guard, you’ve got zero achievement in the assessment. You’re nothing in front of me! Mind your manners when you speak to me!!!” After saying this, Xu Jun had a face that seemed to scream ‘I’m the best’, his eyes almost reaching the sky. “Oh, last year’s, eh! That just means that this year might not be your year, right? What a big shot you are!” Ye Xuan rolled his eyes, the look on his face saying ‘watching an idiot’. Xu Jun gasped! He had thought that revealing his identity would make this little security guard look at him with admiration, but the guy was looking at him like he was a fool! This left Xu Jun feeling like he was punching cotton. Grinding his teeth, Xu Jun snorted coldly, “Hmph! Wasting my words on a mere security guard like you is like playing the lute to a cow! But I’ve got to tell you, just yesterday, I landed another big order worth three million. With the sales I’ve racked up over the half-year, I’m confident I can double last year’s performance!” “That impressive? Then why aren’t you soaring through the skies, why stand here bragging?” Ye Xuan curled his lip, stepped forward, and patted Xu Jun’s shoulder, saying with a playful look, “Go blow that hot air up in the sky. Work hard, and maybe you can blow the smog from Capital City all the way to Japan. Keep it up! I’m rooting for you!” Blow the smog to Japan? Fuck that! A sinister look flickered in Xu Jun’s eyes as he moved closer to Ye Xuan and spoke in a low voice, “Kid, if you stay away from Yuan Mengmeng, I can guarantee you’ll pass the assessment with ease! My uncle Feng Liang is the head of the sales department, and I also have the good fortune to be involved in this assessment. With my help, once your performance goes up, you can be transferred to the sales department, which is much better than being a security guard!” Eastern Group’s performance appraisal was not only aimed at sales department members but involved all employees in the company! It was designed to increase interaction among employees and effectively enhance the company’s competitiveness. Those who excelled in the assessment had the opportunity to transfer out of their current departments. Then, a position would be carved out in the major departments like sales or marketing for focused development! On the other hand, those in the sales and marketing departments who underperformed compared to other departments would also lose the chance to stay in their positions, giving way to those who truly had sales talent. However, the main focus was still the sales and marketing departments; the other departments were generally only going through the motions! After all, there are specialists in every field, and the ones who truly made a splash in the assessments were still few and far between.
