Su Yumo was quite shocked upon learning about this matter, and she was already familiar with the rumors circulating within the company about this mysterious major shareholder.
However, she had not expected that the other party would transfer the three billion yuan worth of Eastern Group shares they had acquired to Lin Tong at no cost! Wasn’t this move overly generous?
Under her persistent questioning about who this mysterious major shareholder was, Lin Tong admitted that she did not know, which left Yumo speechless.
"Yumo, the company now needs new statutes and planning, and I don’t have enough people by my side. Would you be willing to become my assistant? I recommend you for my Executive Secretary."
Lin Tong put down her chopsticks and suddenly looked at Su Yumo with a serious expression.
Actually, the main reason she had invited Su Yumo to lunch was to discuss this matter, thus she needed to seek her opinion.
Once she became the chairman, she would definitely need an assistant by her side to help her manage and coordinate all kinds of matters! Most importantly, this person had to be someone she could trust.
Within the company, there were only two such individuals—one was her best friend Su Yumo, and the other was Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan, her husband, was a man, and it definitely wouldn’t be convenient for him to take on the secretary’s role!
But Su Yumo was different—their relationship was already very close, and Yumo’s work capability was very strong. She was undoubtedly the best candidate for the assistant position, and their cooperation would be more in sync.
Therefore, from the bottom of her heart, she hoped that Su Yumo would accept the position of Executive Secretary and become her assistant.
"Executive Secretary? You want me to take that position?"
Su Yumo looked at Lin Tong in surprise and asked.
The Executive Secretary oversees all the secretaries of the secretariat and reports directly to the chairman.
This position held absolute power, and every action represented the chairman! It was said to have the authority to act now and report later and was definitely the second most powerful individual in the company besides the chairman.
Because the power associated with this position was so great, only a trustworthy person could hold it, otherwise it could easily lead to internal conflict. Therefore, under Lin Dongfang’s management, the position of Executive Secretary had never been established.
Yumo could not believe that Lin Tong was offering her this position and was so unsure that she asked again.
"Of course! I want you to be my Executive Secretary. The treatment is much better than your current role as HR manager! So, are you unwilling?"
Lin Tong nodded happily and then smiled as she asked.
"Lin Tong, I have no problem being the Executive Secretary... However, I’m just worried that I might not be capable enough and fear I might not do justice to the role."
Su Yumo hesitated, modestly expressing her concern.
Actually, deep down, she was willing to take on the role because the position of Executive Secretary offered a more significant developmental space compared to a department manager. On the other hand, working together with Lin Tong was like combining dual swordsmanship, and it could definitely bring better development to the company.
But given the critical nature of the Executive Secretary role, if she did not perform well, wouldn’t she be letting Lin Tong down?
"Yumo, you are being too modest! Don’t you understand your own capabilities? If even you aren’t competent, then no one in the entire company would be!"
Lin Tong said while laughing.
Seeing that she still had something else to say, Lin Tong quickly waved her hand to interrupt:
"Enough! The position of Executive Secretary is yours and no one else’s. Why else would I offer it to you? Stop hesitating."
"Okay... fine! I agree to be the Secretary-General!"
Su Yumo hesitated for a moment before reluctantly agreeing.
After lunch, the three of them headed back to the company, but they each split up; Lin Tong and Su Yumo still had to go to the office to handle work.
As for Ye Xuan, he seemed a bit bored. In the afternoon, he just played with his phone and played some mini-games in his office to pass the long afternoon.
However, just as he was about to head back to his office, his mobile phone suddenly rang, called by a pretty girl at the reception.
"Manager Ye, where are you?"
The receptionist’s crisp voice came through the phone.
"I’ve just come back from lunch and was about to head to the office, what’s up?" Ye Xuan answered.
"Well, that’s perfect, Manager Ye. Please come down. There’s a beautiful lady here looking for you," the receptionist said.
A beautiful lady? Looking for me?
Ye Xuan was momentarily stunned, but he still responded on the phone, "Alright, I know, I’ll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, he began to wonder to himself who the beautiful lady looking for him could be. Could it be Lu Miaochan?
Ye Xuan thought it was most likely this young lady. but didn’t she have his number? Why didn’t she call him directly? And he hadn’t received any notification that she was coming to see him.
Whatever, he would find out who it was once he got to the lobby.
With that thought, Ye Xuan put away his phone, whistled, and walked down to the lobby.
Soon upon reaching the first floor lobby, Ye Xuan saw the beautiful lady who was looking for him. However, surprisingly, it wasn’t Lu Miaochan, but someone completely unexpected, an absolutely startling person!
The girl stood prettily in the middle of the lobby, her short, black, silky hair just cascading to her shoulders, and beneath the slanted bangs, there was a beautifully sculpted face!
With features like a model, skin as smooth as a peeled boiled egg, and cheeks still slightly chubby with baby fat, she appeared even cuter.
Her youthful and beautiful presence attracted quite a few glances. Especially, her slightly heroic eyebrows added a valiant touch to her pure sweetness, giving her an air of brisk charm.
Nowadays, it is rare for girls to have such masculine eyebrows, but on this girl’s face, they added a whole layer of allure. Her overall attire was vibrant and trendy, full of youthful energy and vitality!
No doubt about it, this was an exquisite beauty. Although she seemed to be not yet twenty, her whole bearing already showed the potential of a top beauty. Given a few more years, she would undoubtedly be a real stunner.
This pretty and somewhat heroic girl was named Wei Xiaosu!
Mentioning this name might seem unfamiliar, but last time in Huayun City, when Ye Xuan and Hua Tian were settling a bet, it was a phone call to Wei Hongjun that resolved the trouble. And Wei Xiaosu, she was Wei Hongjun’s daughter.
"Brother Xuan, it’s been a few years since we saw each other, do you recognize who I am?"
As soon as Wei Xiaosu saw Ye Xuan approaching, her eyes lit up and she quickly burst into a smile and rushed forward to hug his arm, radiating a fresh and charming aura, cheerfully saying.
Her voice was sweet and melodious, like a warbling oriole, quite penetrating, which Ye Xuan thoroughly enjoyed.
After taking a good look at her, Ye Xuan smiled gently, raised his hand, and patted Wei Xiaosu’s head, saying,
"Isn’t this little Susu? Haha, haven’t seen you for a few years, and you’ve grown into a beautiful young lady already?"
