Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 327: Private conversation (2)

“Yes, your ability is widely recognized, President Han. Although you are now down and out, there are certain things that cannot be denied. In your case, this pastry store of mine is just a small pond, accommodating a genius like you here…seems to be a case that could ‘neither be fish nor fowl’.”

“You are going to fire me?” Han Yichen’s expression slightly darkened. The ultimate purpose of his initiative to see Zhao Youlin today was almost the same, but being fired and taking the initiative to resign were obviously two very different concepts.

Zhao Youlin shook her head. “No, on the contrary. President Han, what I really meant is that you have an incomparably intelligent mind, enviable business skills, a very rare adaptability skill, and these talents are really wasted here. If you don’t mind, I would very much like to invite you to join Zhao Enterprise on my own behalf.

“You want me to join Zhao Enterprise to help you?” Han Yichen looked at Zhao Youlin in disbelief. He could not figure out what Zhao Youlin’s intention was in doing so. Was this a test, or was this…

Zhao Youlin nodded affirmatively as she continued to gently persuade him. “I’m sure you’re aware of my current situation, I’ve joined Zhao Enterprise for only a few months. Although I’ve managed to stop those rumors that maliciously attacked me by making little achievements, this is far from enough for me, who has been cultivated as an heir with high expectations by my grandfather.”

“So?”

“I need you.”

Han Yichen was speechless. “…”

Although he knew that when Zhao Youlin said she needed him, it was not what he thought it meant, Han Yichen still could not help but shudder and got goosebumps all over his body.

Zhao Youlin took in Han Yichen’s every reaction, the corner of her mouth could not help but twitch a little. She cleared her throat and continued. “In short, I need to carve a career in the company to consolidate my position within it. This means that I not only need to perform well at my job, but I also need to properly build my own team.”

“So you set your eyes on me?

“That is right. I have to admit that there are some things in you that I lack as I am still inexperienced in the field, President Han. I need someone who is good enough to stand by my side, to be my benchmark, and to become my most solid backing. And this person, it is none other than you, President Han.”

Zhao Youlin was talking nonsense in a serious manner, while inwardly she was secretly thinking about her own hidden agenda.

Her main task here today was to keep a grip on this man. And then, she would wait for the right opportunity to lure him to Zhao enterprise. As to what kind of reason she could use to lure him and how she could lure him, it was up to how she winged it.

Anyway, the old master had also said that even if the final result showed that this man was not related with Duan Yarong and them at all, it was still undeniable that this man was a rare talent. This coincided with Zhao Youlin’s initial thought.

Zhao Youlin’s initial thought was to find an opportunity to bring Han Yichen into Zhao Enterprise. If it was confirmed in the future that Han Yichen was indeed the child of Zhao family, she would naturally step aside and leave this whole mess to Han Yichen.

Even if they found out in the future that all of this was just their own wishful thinking, with Han Yichen as the existing labor, she still could leave the whole mess to him and she would become an ‘absentee landlady’. The point was Han Yichen would have to take over the job no matter what.

That was what Zhao Youlin expected, though she had a feeling that people like Han Yichen, who had been raised to become a leader, suddenly became someone’s subordinate one day, it seemed…impossible.

It must be said that Zhao Youlin’s hunch had always been true.

After hearing these words from Zhao Youlin, Han Yichen did not show much joy. He only looked deeply at Zhao Youlin for a while before he said in an incredibly cold manner, “Then… am I supposed to say I’m honored?”

Zhao Youlin frowned. She slapped her hands on the table and lightly jumped off the table. She came up to Han Yichen and sighed. “I know that you’re too overqualified to join Zhao Enterprise just to help me, you might feel wronged. But please believe me, President Han, I am very committed to inviting you to join us. In exchange, Zhao Enterprise will do everything possible to help you get back what belonged to you back then.”

“I refuse.” Before Zhao Youlin could finish, Han Yichen had already made his decision first.

Zhao Youline felt speechless. She had expected this would happen, but being rejected so directly in the face, Zhao Youlin could not help but ask, “Why?”

Han Yichen gave Zhao Youlin an indifferent look and uttered, “Because I don’t need it.”

“You don’t need it.”

“What belongs to me, I can get it back myself. I don’t need others to interfere. Besides…” Han Yichen paused. His face suddenly became serious. He stared deeply into Zhao Youlin’s eyes and said, “Sheng Shi Group will further engage with Zhao Enterprise and it will go on to become Zhao Enterprise’s friendly partner, but now is not the time.”

Zhao Youlin was shocked. What did she just hear? Sheng Shi Group? Didn’t Sheng Shi Group go bankrupt long ago? How could it still be able to engage with Zhao Enterprise? Could it be that…

A shocking guess swept through Zhao Youlin’s mind. She stared incredulously at the person in front of her.

Han Yichen did not explain himself any further. He said in a deep voice the real purpose he took the initiative to find Zhao Youlin today. “I want to resign and leave for a while.”

“You’re leaving?” Zhao Youlin, who was still immersed in the previous shock, instantly came back to her senses and reflexively cried out when she heard Han Yichen said he wanted to leave.

Only after she came back to her senses did she realize that she had just lost her cool. Looking into Han Yichen’s stunned gaze, she awkwardly coughed lightly and said, “I mean, is this the reason you called me over here to talk privately, President Han? Why do you suddenly want to leave?”

“There are some things that I need to take care of.”

Looking at Han Yichen’s emotionless look, Zhao Youlin secretly gritted her teeth and asked in a muffled voice, “No offense, may I know where exactly are you going and what are you going to do after leaving this place?”

Han Yichen cast a glance at her and replied without giving it a second thought, “Since you know it could be an offense, you shouldn’t ask this question.”

Zhao Youlin was speechless. “…” How could this man be even more difficult to deal with than Mu Tingfeng?

Zhao Youlin took a deep breath and tried her best to maintain her composure. She asked tentatively, “When do you plan to leave?”

“Tomorrow.”

“So soon?” Zhao Youlin was surprised. After seeing the suspicious look Han Yichen projected over again, she hastily changed her tone. “Have you told the others in the store about this, especially An Qi and An Yue?”

Hearing someone’s name, Han Yichen’s expressionless face finally showed some emotion. He pursed his lips and looked at Zhao Youlin. “Miss Zhao, please bring a message to Xiao Yue for me.”

“Oh? What is the message?”

“Wait for me. Just tell her to wait for me.”
