"So people really know how to suck up to the boss, no wonder they have such a good relationship with the leadership. Unlike us, who only know how to work diligently."
From that snide voice, Su Xiaoxiao could guess who it was without even turning her head.
"Exactly, so people are just too diligent, consistently coming in last in performance each month. Unlike , who always exceeds targets easily. Sotis being too outstanding is also a burden."
Su Xiaoxiao mimicked her tone with feigned sarcasm.
"Su Xiaoxiao, how can you be so shaless? Are you really going to brag about being called fat? You’re just the daughter of a criminal, just like your dad isn’t..."
Before Zhang Dongi could finish, her face received a heavy slap, her left cheek instantly turned red.
"Su Xiaoxiao, you dare hit !"
Zhang Dongi was furious, rolling up her sleeves to charge forth, but was held back by Zhang Yulan and Qin Shuang from both sides.
"Mr. Zhang, we’re all colleagues here; let’s talk things out instead of resorting to violence."
Zhang Yulan advised earnestly.
Qin Shuang chid in, "It’d be disgraceful if other units saw us, the Second Departnt Store’s salespeople, being so uncooperative."
Zhang Dong: "..."
If these two had intervened earlier when Su Xiaoxiao hit her, she might have believed them.
"Let go of , I’m going to kill Su Xiaoxiao!"
Using both hands and feet, Zhang Dongi tried to break free, but the two held her firmly.
Su Xiaoxiao enjoyed watching her suffer, feeling quite pleased inside. Let Zhang Dongi who can’t speak like a human day after day babble nonsense.
Just as they were all at an impasse, a sudden awkward cough sounded behind them.
Everyone turned around to find Yan Guohua, who had just left, had returned without anyone noticing.
Zhang Yulan quickly pulled Qin Shuang, and the two let go at once.
Su Xiaoxiao greeted Yan Guohua with enthusiasm, "Hello, General Manager."
Seeing her support arrive, Zhang Dongi hurriedly spoke up, "General Manager, Su Xiaoxiao is forming cliques and being independent, you must speak for ."
Thrown under a big accusation, everyone seed a bit baffled.
No, is Zhang Dongi really incapable of speaking human? Listen to what she said, how did it turn into independence?
Yan Guohua had been there for a while and had a general understanding of the situation.
Indeed, Mr. Zhang’s mouth was troubleso; insulting Comrade Su’s own father, it’s no wonder she got mad.
"Enough, it’s not a major issue. Our departnt store is a whole; colleagues should be united, to avoid being laughed at by other departnt stores."
Yan Guohua’s aning was clear, he wouldn’t intervene.
A group of female colleagues squabbling wasn’t sothing a General Manager should get involved in.
With that, he shifted focus to the real matter.
"Xiao Su, co over, I have sothing to discuss with you."
Upon the General Manager’s request, Su Xiaoxiao temporarily set aside personal vendettas and followed him.
Once they left, Zhang Yulan and Qin Shuang imdiately released Zhang Dongi with disdain.
Watching Su Xiaoxiao’s familiar attitude with Yan Guohua, Zhang Dongi felt uncomfortable.
Basically, seeing Su Xiaoxiao doing well made her feel itchiness akin to having lice all over, feeling utterly uneasy.
Giving Su Xiaoxiao’s back a fierce glare, she stord off angrily.
"Xiao Su, are you confident about running for the Sales Departnt Manager position?"
In Yan Guohua’s mind, the best candidate was Su Xiaoxiao; she’s clever, with a sweet tongue, born to be a Sales Manager.
Su Xiaoxiao felt pretty sure of herself, but couldn’t speak too confidently in case of unforeseen circumstances.
"General Manager, don’t worry, I’ll definitely not disappoint your expectations and strive my best."
"Good, good. If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to co to . Also, Manager Liu is participating in the running too. Initially, having voluntarily resigned, he’d be ineligible, but I have to make allowances for the old General Manager."
Yan Guohua reassured her extensively, mainly expressing he was more inclined to see Su Xiaoxiao beco the Sales Manager.
Manager Liu was soone he never thought much of, had no real skills, yet always acted as if superior, looking down on people.
If not for considering the old General Manager’s position, he never would let soone like that hold such an important role.
Having finished the actual business, Yan Guohua suddenly rembered sothing else he’d intended to ask, speaking seriously, "Xiao Su, could you sell two bottles of that spicy sauce of yours?"
Seeing his serious expression, Su Xiaoxiao thought he had sothing important to say, but ended up wanting to buy Old Godmother sauce.
No wonder Old Godmother is truly the perfect condint.
"General Manager, this is homade. If you like it, I’ll bring you two bottles next ti."
The sauce was no big deal, she couldn’t ask the General Manager for money.
But unexpectedly, once said, Yan Guohua’s expression turned serious, "Xiao Su, we must adhere to proper protocol, I should set an example as General Manager, can’t take your things for free."
Knowing Yan Guohua has always been strict, Su Xiaoxiao didn’t insist, agreeing to bring him the sauce the next day before leaving.
The afternoon wasn’t very busy; nearing end-of-day many people began discussing the batch of dry goods arriving today.
That batch wasn’t abundant, seed like most was taken by personnel within their departnt store.
Uncertain of how much they could snag tomorrow.
Su Xiaoxiao pondered as she rode her bike ho.
Approaching ho, she saw two familiar figures with crooked backpacks loitering around the doorway.
"What are you two doing here? Not going ho, playing guard out here?"
Stopping her bike before them, Su Xiaoxiao looked at them quizzically.
Both turned around synchronously, and upon seeing Su Xiaoxiao, imdiately acted as if seeing a family mber.
"Third Sister, you’re off work? Are you tired? Let push the bike for you."
Su Jianwu eagerly stepped forward.
"Third Sister, do your shoulders ache? Let give you a massage."
Su Jianwen followed suit, attitude fawning excessively.
Their faces lit up with toothy grins, seemingly very insincere.
When things seem off, there’s usually sothing amiss.
Seeing them acting so, Su Xiaoxiao imdiately suspected they had been up to no good again.
Ignoring their sugarcoated complints, she scowled, "Spit it out, what have you done now?"
"Third Sister, what are you talking about? We’ve done nothing wrong."
Su Jianwen hurriedly expressed loyalty, almost swearing to heaven.
Su Jianwu nodded vigorously, "Third Sister, we’ve been behaving lately, haven’t gotten into any fights at school."
"So what’s up with you two?"
No reason for them to act so nice? What am I, a ghost?
Suddenly, she rembered sothing and narrowed her eyes dangerously, "Don’t tell , you two got swindled out of your tuition again?"
Given their history, it wasn’t surprising Su Xiaoxiao suspected them.
Both shook their heads vigorously, speaking in unison, "Third Sister, we’ve neither made trouble nor been swindled, just a small issue requires help from our charming and graceful Third Sister."
