The jewelry line launched by Fu Group topped the global sales rankings the day it was released.
Tang Xi’s design works were very popular.
During a meeting on Friday morning, Jiang Wangyue appointed Tang Xi as the Deputy Director.
There were a few who were somewhat dissatisfied, but they didn’t dare to voice it openly.
They only dared to mutter softly.
Jiang Wangyue glanced around and said, "If any of you have objections, feel free to express them. In our design department, we speak on the basis of achievements. First, look at your own performance reports. There’s no need to talk about seniority; everything is about performance. The position of Deputy Director is for the capable ones."
Everyone naturally recognized Tang Xi’s business capabilities.
This quarter, almost the entire department depended on Tang Xi to get through.
Under Fang Yuan’s lead, they all congratulated Tang Xi.
Tang Xi didn’t expect to be promoted, and she was naturally delighted, but at the same time, she also felt a bit unaccustomed as she had only joined the company less than half a year ago. After the meeting, she went to Jiang Wangyue’s office. Before she could speak, Jiang Wangyue seemed to guess what she was about to say. He nodded to her, gesturing for her to sit down, and then walked over with a smile, "Tang Xi, I choose to trust you, and you should choose to trust yourself too!"
Jiang Wangyue’s trust gave her some strength. Tang Xi took a deep breath and nodded, "I will definitely work hard."
When Tang Xi was about to leave, Jiang Wangyue stopped her, "Tonight, remember to treat everyone to a meal to celebrate your new position."
Tang Xi thanked her for the reminder and sent a message to everyone, inviting them to dine together.
A female colleague suggested, "Manager Tang is treating us, that’s great! I heard that a Cantonese tea restaurant recently opened on the sixth floor of Tailai Mall’s dining area. There are several signature dishes there. I heard this restaurant has some unique private rooms; a while ago, I saw a photo from colleagues in design department 1 dining there, and the taste was pretty good."
"This restaurant is quite good, but you need to make a reservation in advance, and it’s not cheap either."
"What’s there to worry about, Manager Tang wouldn’t be stingy like that."
Tang Xi sent a smiling emoji, "Since everyone likes this restaurant, let’s go there tonight. I’ll book a car after work, and we’ll meet at the door."
Fang Yuan moved his chair close to Tang Xi and whispered, "Sister Tang Xi, I went to this restaurant not long ago for a blind date arranged by my parents. We had booked a week in advance, and my parents..."
Fang Yuan didn’t know how to continue.
He stopped mid-sentence.
But Tang Xi understood what he meant.
Fang Yuan’s parents hold respectable jobs, as a doctor and a professor, and even they needed to book a week in advance for a reservation; Tang Xi, arranging dinner at such short notice, might not be able to secure a private room tonight.
Tang Xi knew Fang Yuan was concerned for her, she shook her head and said it was fine.
At 6 PM, they arrived on time at Tailai Mall.
A few people were waiting to see Tang Xi’s failure, but what stunned them was that the front desk said there were no private rooms available without a prior reservation, however, when Tang Xi pulled out a card and handed it over, the receptionist’s expression changed instantly. They summoned the manager, who respectfully ushered Tang Xi inside.
Tang Xi also sighed in relief; she hadn’t expected the card Fu Tingzhou gave her to be so useful.
Fang Yuan was surprised; she hadn’t expected Tang Xi to actually secure a private room.
And Jiang Wangyue, noticing the card that Tang Xi handed over, was inwardly shocked. This card wasn’t simple; there were only a few in all of North City.
Only some significant figures could possess this card.
It was something beyond her own social circle’s access.
Tang Xi was very beautiful, dressed simply and ordinarily, so Jiang Wangyue couldn’t make a connection between Tang Xi and a magnate’s mistress, but this card was too rare. Throughout North City, only the Shu Family, Fu Family, and other such prominent figures could have it.
And Tang Xi had one too...
Jiang Wangyue was full of questions, but she didn’t inquire further from Tang Xi.
Everyone has their own secrets.
Tang Xi had a little drink tonight, but she wasn’t drunk; she got home around 11 PM. Yellow Jade took her coat and said, "Miss Tangtang has already fallen asleep, Mr. Fu is currently watching a movie in the basement level one cinema, Miss Tang, would you like to join him?"
Tang Xi wanted to thank him, after all, she used his card tonight.
Fu Tingzhou had already received a message alert about the amount spent at the restaurant when Tang Xi used the card, so when Tang Xi came over with a slightly flushed face, making polite expressions of gratitude, Fu Tingzhou simply crossed his legs, gesturing with his hand, "Come here."
