Chapter 237 The Audacity of Schoolgirls Nowadays
What excited them the most was that when Lin Zifeng spoke these words, he was full of passion and bravado, especially when he shouted "President of Nangong" with even more affection than for his own father.
He not only managed to suck up but also retained his own dignity, making his opponents unable to find any fault.
He truly exemplified the art of corporate warfare.
Zhang Xixi finally understood why Nangong Bing would let a mere security guard take a position in Tianyu Group’s coveted "Finance Department," the Holy Land that all white-collar workers dream of.
With this guy around, it’s likely that the black sheep in the Finance Department will have their good days ahead.
And Lin Zifeng was wondering to himself if Nangong Bing did this on purpose. The Finance Department, known throughout the company for its "abundance of riches," turned out to be this rotten.
Even a lowly employee had become so arrogant, and those so-called employees, where was their ambition or dedication to work? They were clearly just a group who relied on personal connections or got in through the back door.
It seemed Tianyu was definitely not as simple as it appeared.
Though Nangong Bing always seemed calm, it turned out this woman was the truly complicated one.
Lin Zifeng could not help but secretly break out in a sweat. God knows if this unassuming woman would include him in her calculations.
After dealing with the Zhang Huo incident, Zhang Huo took a hit in silence, running to the Sales Department several times to find his so-called manager relative. As soon as they heard Lin Zifeng had some connection with Nangong Bing, they were so frightened they didn’t dare to breathe heavily, kicking Zhang Huo to the curb like a dog eating dirt, almost jumping with rage and cursing him for being such an ignorant beast. It was hard enough to pull strings to get him into Tianyu, and now he brought such trouble. If this newcomer really had any connection with Nangong Bing, then the sales manager’s position might be at risk.
The perks of the Trade Department were not any less than those of the Finance Department’s, and they even came more widely.
Under the simple introduction by Zhang Xixi, those in the Finance Department, who had initially looked down on Lin Zifeng as a country bumpkin, now eagerly treated him as if he was their father, fearing that the slightest misunderstanding could provoke Lin Zifeng and result in them being swept out the door the next day.
With Nangong Bing’s "guidance," Lin Zifeng now had it made in the Finance Department, where he could do anything he wanted. He spent his days doing nothing but playing video games and watching movies in his private office, nominally serving as Zhang Xixi’s assistant, but in reality, he was just a titular figurehead without actual power. It was Nangong Bing’s way of satisfying his desire for a promotion.
But who knew what Nangong Bing’s true intentions were?
After much persistence and pleading, Nangong Bing had reluctantly agreed to Lin Zifeng’s request to take on dual roles. If it hadn’t been for Tianyu Group’s domain forum being hacked, Lin Zifeng wouldn’t be enjoying such leisurely and carefree days now.
However, a hacker attack on the domain forum was definitely not a simple matter. Lin Zifeng spared no expense to consult with dozens of international network engineers, finally freezing the original company domain forum, and created a new domain forum network for Tianyu Group within Baidu. This time, Lin Zifeng’s security requirements were so stringent that it left the domestic network engineers in awe.
In just three days, following Nangong Bing’s strict requirements, Lin Zifeng had managed to hurriedly complete the work, and Hua Buqi and Meng Youjing had also returned to the country.
However, this time the business performance in Macau seemed to have fallen through. Although Lin Zifeng had used force to make the Macau film company’s boss cave, all subsequent negotiations and sponsorship talks were rejected.
Fortunately, several domestic advertising media companies approached the girl to shoot commercials. Although TV series were off the table, shooting commercials wasn’t a bad deal.
But what troubled Lin Zifeng during those three days was that Huahua suddenly announced that she was about to start school!
This was as out of place as frost in the heat of summer, how bizarre!
For a minor celebrity in the entertainment industry, she actually wanted to go to college? With her future so bright, attending college or not would be all the same, yet the girl was determined to drag Lin Zifeng to school with her.
Am I supposed to become ’the personal expert of the school belle’ and be her Bodyguard?
This is just ridiculous.
Do you even know what a Bodyguard is?
Responsible for all her personal protection, now I just don’t know if things like bathing together—this phoenix bath—might happen between the two of us, a grown man and a loli, that’s some heavy taste...
By the fourth day, Lin Zifeng had finally understood some unknown affairs of the Finance Department of the company.
After grabbing some simple breakfast in the morning and driving Nangong Bing’s Lamborghini sports car, one could say I really turned heads on the road.
Even just parking in the residential area for a short while attracted a few dolled-up young girls who came up to me.
"Hey, handsome, can you give me a ride to school?"
A few tall and provocatively dressed girls came up, their seductive and alluring manner really turned Lin Zifeng off, because these three schoolgirls were at best sixteen or seventeen years old.
Although they’ve put on makeup to look mature and enticing and their chests have developed pretty well, their youthful aura and mental age didn’t interest Lin Zifeng at all.
"Go on, go do whatever you’re supposed to be doing, don’t bother me. I’m busy."
Lin Zifeng flatly refused without any politeness.
"Come on, don’t be stingy. How about this? We give you our QQ? If there’s anything fun at night, you can call us anytime, and we’ll hang out with you, whatever you want to do."
Damn! Are girls these days so open?
Do they really talk like that? Could it be that I’m the one who’s out of touch?
Lin Zifeng felt a wave of frustration. Huahua makes endless jokes about me looking old, calling me ’uncle’ all the time, but in the eyes of these little girls, I’m a handsome guy? Could it be that their viand of men differs?
"Go on, I don’t have time to mess around with you; I have to go to work at the company."
The three high school girls instantly perked up.
It seemed that this decent-looking guy might be a successful person?
Or possibly the second generation of some corporate empire.
If they could latch onto someone of that caliber, why on earth would they still bother with school? Going to university is for those poor kids who are desperately trying to escape their fates by fiercely climbing the Dragon Gate.
For those like them, born into advantageous family backgrounds and conditions, why should they torture themselves with university exams?
Women who are just a bit above average in looks and know how to dress themselves, with a bit of brainpower, would they ever have to worry about starving to death in the future?
"Come on, don’t be so stingy. If you don’t want to drive us to school, then how about we just find some place to have a bit of fun?"
