“There are two female saints hiding right beside me!”
Coming out of the canteen, Shi Yu couldn’t come back to her senses from that classic confrontation just now.
Whether it was the dish Dong Yi knocked over or Xiao Qian’s commanding presence afterwards, Shi Yu savored it. It was too cool.
Dong Yi maintained her expression, Xiao Qian was just as calm as before. As if she wasn’t the one holding someone by the collar telling them to piss off just now.
“With your performance, I’ll need a week to digest all of it — wait a minute, Boss Qian, you chased him away but what about the performance?” Shi Yu finally remembered the crucial task at hand.
If they didn’t clarify this matter today, and the dress rehearsal can be skipped tonight, but what about the show tomorrow? They can’t pretend they don’t exist, how would they survive the next four years?
“Boss Qian, Da Yi, shall we storm the Student Council and ask them to cancel our performance?”
“It’s too late now, it was handled by the Student Councils of each College a long time ago.” Xiao Qian was also familiar with this process.
In her past life, she spent two years managing the Student Council at this school.
This time she didn’t want to play house with these kids.
She had no plans to re-join the Student Council. In their campus life, Student Councils felt powerful, but once entering society, you’d realize it wasn’t much. Only serving as a bit of life experience, she had enough of that in her past life and didn’t plan to take on extra responsibilities.
“So, does that mean, someone has been keeping an eye on us and signed us up?” Shi Yu got it.
She felt the situation was big and infuriating, but looking at her roommates, one was emotionless and aloof, the other was as calm as coaxing a child. Shi Yu was torn.
“What if we form a triple trio of children singing ‘Catching Mudfish’?”
There were thousands of talented singers and dancers at the Beidou Normal University, it seemed impossible not to embarrass oneself on this occasion.
“Only proves how incompetent the Student Council is.” There shouldn’t have been such oversight, dealing with relationships could cause disruption. It never happened when Xiao Qian was the president.
“My dear Boss Qian, why are you so indifferent, the crisis is imminent and you’re viewing this situation from such a detached perspective?”
Shi Yu felt Xiao Qian was like a school leader disguised as a student, gaining insights through first-hand experiences, always looking at issues from a grand perspective.
“It’s not a big deal, it’s just a performance, we’ll put something together when we get home. I’ll help you guys save face. If you dare to embarrass us, I’ll make sure she’s embarrassed first.”
In Xiao Qian’s mind, as a super boss, she really doesn’t find much interest in playing these petty games with a bunch of kids, usually she’d let things happen.
But this time was different, someone had their eyes on Yu Minglang. If she didn’t crush it this time, she shouldn’t be called Boss Qian but Chen Xiaoqian the wasteful dumpling.
Should others dare sleep under her roof? Her trial period boyfriend had been targeted and she needed to up her game.
“It’s easier said than done, what are we going to do?”
“Or we could perform an eating contest, where I eat three pieces of watermelon in under a minute, I haven’t performed this amazing feat in years or we could perform a mime or something…”
No one paid attention to Shi Yu’s mutterings.
Xiao Qian turned to ask Dong Yi, “Do you have a special language?”
“Hmm.”
“This folk song with the melody, do you know it?” Xiao Qian hummed a few lines.
“…” Dong Yi’s reaction to most questions was similar.
“Second Brother probably doesn’t want you to embarrass yourself in front of so many people.”
“I can sing.”
Shi Yu was amazed, “My goodness, are you two having a conversation?”
It’s a miracle. There really is someone who can communicate with Dong Yi. It feels like Boss Qian has the upper hand.
“Find the soul code and everything will be easy. That’s efficiency, learn from it.” Xiao Qian knocked on Shi Yu’s head.
Dong Yi suddenly had a bad feeling. Chen Xiaoqian might use Uncle to get her in line.
The reason why a boss becomes a boss is because she uses every mean possible to find the useful people’s soul code and make use of them, or in other words, recruit useful minions.
“Go and find a band, you know, the ones that perform live outside the shopping mall, a quartet. Ask them if they’re in for 200 yuan a day, I’ll cover the expenses.” Xiao Qian pointed at Shi Yu.
“Money’s easy, I can get several people from my dad’s place and treat them to some drinks — the problem is, what do you want to do?” Shi Yu almost ran her mouth. Her father had many people under his command who managed live events, finding a small quartet wouldn’t be hard.
“Young girl, work more and ask less. Did you get Boss Qian’s workplace rules? Go quickly, find the people.”
With Shi Yu off to take care of business, Xiao Qian dragged a clearly reluctant Dong Yi to the streets to shop.
Who is who and who can do what, this is something every boss needs to understand. For different people, you should have different methods.
Shi Yu ran to a deserted place, looked left and right to make sure no one was around. Then she pulled out her cell phone and finished the task her boss assigned her, finding a band. She twirled her eyeballs, calculated, and it seemed her brother Qiao Zhen should be on duty right now.
She dialed the number and sure enough.
“What is it this time, isn’t the new training finished? Aren’t you being tormented by a devil coach anymore?” Qiao Zhen’s voice sounded a bit tired. “Brother, what’s wrong with you, did you overwork your kidneys?”
“Get lost, who knows what’s wrong with the young boss these past few days, killing us with overtime. What’s up with you?”
“I finally figured out why God arranged for me to share a dormitory with Boss Qian. Brother, I’m your undercover agent to save you from the nightmare. Boss Qian is making some moves, you should report this to your young boss quickly. You’ll sleep soundly tonight. It’s the truth, and you should be nicer to me in the future. I’ll toll you any news about Boss Qian, you’ll become the general manager in your young boss’ heart.”
“You’re the one to be general manager!” Qiao Zhen laughed after being provoked by her, “Tell me, what is my wife up to…”
It seemed the young boss couldn’t find time to go see Xiao Qian, Xiao Qian wouldn’t call him or write any emails, the young boss’ face was getting darker every day.
Originally Yu Minglang told Xiao Qian, he should call and write letters once a week, Xiao Qian did none of these. Moreover, when he wrote letters, she never replied. When he called her, she would either hang up after a few words or say someone else was waiting to use the phone.
In short, Yu Minglang was full of anger, and no one in the company dared to provoke him, everyone avoided him.
When Qiao Zhen heard Shi Yu say his wife was making moves, he vaguely guessed an opportunity to cheer up the depressed young boss had come..
