BXBX NOVEL Chapter 832 - White Lie
Chapter 832: White Lie
Lei Zongze walked into the company and saw handsome men and beautiful women coming and going.
Lei Zongze asked in a low voice, “Tong Tong, who are these people?”
Xiao Letong said, “These uncles and aunties are all managers of the company.”
“All of them?” Lei Zongze asked.
“Yes, all of them!” Xiao Letong nodded and said.
“Does your mom hire the managers based on looks?” Lei Zongze asked in a low voice. “Look at all of them. They’re all so pleasing to the eye.” Unlike their company, except for a few secretaries, the rest of the employees looked rather... unique.
Xiao Letong said, “My mother’s recruitment is based on their character. If their character isn’t good, no matter how capable they are, she won’t use them.”
At this point, he paused, thought for a moment, and then continued, “Maybe these people have good characters, so they have good looks too!”
Lei Zongze, “...” How come I’ve never heard of that before?
Lei Zongze said with a laugh, “You really are quite mischievous!”
Xiao Letong said, “Second uncle, let’s go. We’ll take you around! Don’t worry. As long as we don’t disturb their work, these uncles and Aunties have a pretty good temper.”
Lei Zongze, “...” How often do you have to have come here to know that?
Xiao Letong and Xiao Ling brought Lei Zongze around. Everyone in the company knew these two young masters. When they saw them, they greeted them warmly.
......
They were cute and beautiful. They were very likable.
Xiao Letong greeted them one by one and said, “Uncle, Auntie, you guys go ahead. I’ll bring my second uncle around to take a look!”
Second Uncle?
When they heard this title, many people were slightly puzzled.
They didn’t know this man.
They had seen the second uncle of the two young masters before. He was a young lad and not this young man in front of them.
Xiao Letong knew their doubts and introduced them generously. He said, “This is the godson that my grandparents took in. My grandparents took in two godsons. This is my new second uncle.”
Hearing Xiao Letong’s introduction, everyone came to a sudden realization. Then, they looked at Lei Zongze with a hint of envy. How lucky were they that Tong Tong’s grandparents recognized them as godsons?
After working in the company for a long time, they naturally knew how good their boss’ mother was at cooking. Although the food in the Taoyuan Village cafeteria was famous for its delicacy, compared to the boss’ mother, the food in the cafeteria was simply incomparable. In fact, the boss specially announced a special reward system. The person with the best performance could go to the Xiao Family for a meal.
This reward was much more practical than a monetary reward.
Although money could buy many things, it couldn’t buy Mother Xiao’s cooking.
Therefore, for this reward, the company’s employees worked hard.
In the eyes of the company’s employees, their boss was simply a winner in life.
She had a happy family, a husband who loved her very much, and a pair of cute and beautiful sons.
To be able to become the boss’ family was also a kind of happiness. So who was this man to be welcomed into the happy family?
Lei Zongze quickly noticed that the gazes that were thrown at him were mixed with surprise and envy. He was a little baffled. However, he was quite simple, and he did not think too deeply about it. He happily followed the two children, and they went to various places to take a look.
Lei Zongze asked curiously, “Tong Tong, where is your mother’s office?”
“It’s on the fifth floor!” Xiao Letong said, “Let’s go, second uncle. I’ll bring you there now!”
Soon, Xiao Letong brought Lei Zongze to the fifth floor. However, the secretary said, “Tong Tong, the boss is having a meeting with someone inside.”
Hearing that Xiao Lingyu was having a meeting, Xiao Letong said sensibly, “Okay, we’ll wait outside for a while. Auntie, please make a cup of coffee for my second uncle.”
The secretary smiled and said, “Okay.” Then, she took out two boxes of milk from the cabinet and handed them to Xiao Letong and Xiao Ling respectively. The milk was always prepared here for the children to drink.
Xiao Letong took the milk and drank it. Xiao Ling didn’t like milk, so Xiao Letong took it and drank it.
After a while, the secretary made a cup of coffee for Lei Zongze and said with a smile, “Sir, here’s your coffee. Please drink it slowly!”
“Thank you!” Lei Zongze replied politely.
In the office, Xiao Lingyu and her subordinates were discussing the development projects of various farms.
Phoenix farm was ready. However, the other regions had encountered some investment problems.
“None of these plans will work. Go and write another one.” Xiao Lingyu looked at the plans submitted and rejected them all, “When you wrote these plans, did you go to the local area to investigate? Did you learn about the local customs...”
Xiao Lingyu was usually amiable. However, she was still the boss. When her people did something wrong, they had to be reprimanded.
“I’ll give you five more days to come up with a plan that I’m satisfied with,” Xiao Lingyu said seriously, “If I don’t see a satisfactory plan in five days, your half-year bonus will be gone!”
Everyone was shocked and said seriously, “President Xiao, we will definitely work on this plan.”
Xiao Lingyu glanced at them and continued, “On the contrary, if any of you come up with a plan that I’m satisfied with, then they can eat at my home for a month.”
Hearing that they could eat at their boss’ house for a month, the eyes of the six team leaders lit up. They said with excitement, “President Xiao, is what you said true?” This reward was extremely rare.
In the past, they would only be rewarded with a meal for a day. They had never gotten the chance to eat Mother Xiao’s cooking for a month before. And it would benefit the whole team.
Xiao Lingyu nodded. “Of course it’s true. When have I ever gone back on my word?”
The six team leaders immediately said excitedly, “Boss, don’t worry. Within five days, we will definitely give you a satisfactory plan!”
The six teams looked at each other, and their eyes revealed a look of provocation. Each was determined to get this reward.
“Alright, you can go now!” Xiao Lingyu waved her hand.
After the six team leaders left, Xiao Letong and Xiao Ling brought Lei Zongze in.
When Xiao Lingyu saw them, she smiled and said, “How long have you been here?”
Xiao Letong said, “Not long. I just drank two boxes of milk.”
Xiao Lingyu looked at Lei Zongze and asked with a smile, “Xiao Ze, how is the tour of the company?”
Lei Zongze said with a smile, “At first, I thought that for such a big company, the office building would definitely be a high-rise building. However, unexpectedly, the office building of the company is so simple yet beautiful. From afar, it looks like you are working in villas.”
After saying that, he looked at Xiao Lingyu’s office. It was simple and generous, but it also suited her strong female temperament.
Lei Zongze said another sentence, “Sis, your company is filled with a lot of beautiful men and women. Sis, I am quite curious. What criteria did you use to hire these people? Could it be based on appearance? Then do you think I can work here with my appearance?”
“Second uncle,” Xiao Letong said very seriously, “Do you plan to come here to seduce the souls of the sisters working here?”
“Huh?” Lei Zongze was stunned. Then, he reacted and said happily, “So, Tong Tong, you mean that second uncle is very handsome, right?”
Xiao Letong nodded and said, “Yes, second uncle is very handsome!”
Lei Zongze immediately thought of something and asked, “Tong Tong, do you think second uncle is handsome, or your uncle Ye is more handsome?”
“...” Xiao Letong lied, “Of course, second uncle is more handsome.”
Who would have thought that the honest and naive Xiao Ling would suddenly say, “But uncle Ye is obviously more handsome!”
Xiao Letong immediately corrected him sternly, “Ling Er, sometimes we have to say white lies.”
Lei Zongze, “...”
“Haha...” Xiao Lingyu could not help but laugh.
