Chapter Ch102.1 - Extra 7: Little Overlord Shao SiJia (3)

“Dear colleagues, we have successfully signed a two-year contract with Jin Huang. This year’s overseas trip can be considered ours.

The next morning, a smiling Deng Han announced the good news to his department.

Bi XiaoFei had contacted Geng ShiGuang, the marketing director of Jin Huang, a well-known company that hadn’t had an online presence for a long time. Now, Geng ShiGuang had personally come to their company and was received by Shao SiJia and Deng Han.

Geng ShiGuang had only planned to sign a half-year basic contract with Shuttle Technology to try their services. However, Shao SiJia had formulated an entirely professional personalized plan for their company’s situation. She provided some future statistics and showed him what the predicted result of their collaboration would have. In the end, Geng ShiGuang was convinced, and he signed a two-year contract in one go. Of course, the money involved in a two-year deal was immense.

This contract, coupled with all the other collaborations Shao SiJia had gotten with the smaller customers, not only made up for the loss they had with the Tong contract but even exceeded it.

As soon as the sent Geng ShiGuang off, Deng Han immediately informed everyone in the department. This time, he didn’t bother covering up his bias towards Shao SiJia.

“This contract was acquired by SiJia. It’s because of her that our department is now on top of the performance charts.” Deng Han’s tone was full of praise. “She just recently passed her probation period, yet she already achieved such remarkable results. I hope everyone can learn from her!”

Although Shao SiJia showed her true unbridled personality in the office when she fought with Bai XiaoFei, her efforts when acquiring these contracts were evident to all. So all the employees gave their most sincere and respectful praises, and also took the opportunity to coax Shao SiJia into treating everyone to a meal.

When he heard this, Deng Han hurriedly said: “Don’t be so shameless, ah. Letting a young girl who just passed her probation period to treat you…If you have the ability to ask someone so brazenly, then might as well as me, ah.”

Everyone laughed and began to take advantage of Deng Han instead. However, Shao SiJia smiled and said: “It’s fine. Manager, I also don’t need a bonus for the contracts I’ve gotten. Use the money on department activities instead.”

When she said this, everyone was shocked.

“FML, Shao SiJia, don’t be so impulsive!”

“No, no, be impulsive! Aren’t we going to travel abroad at the end of the year? Should we go on a tour?”

Some people thought that Shao SiJia didn’t know the amount of bonus she would be getting and kindly asked her: “SiJia, don’t you know how much your bonus is?”

Deng Han also began to sweat a bit. “Shao SiJia, are you joking?”

Shao SiJia crossed her arms across her chest. “You people talk too much. Just tell me already: do you guys want it or not?”

Everyone: “…”

Really worthy of being called the office tyrant. We aren’t allowed to refuse anything, even when she’s offering money.

Immediately after she said this, an undignified voice blurted out: “Want-”

Deng Han: “….”

Deng Han looked at Shao SiJia’s expression and abruptly remembered that she was planning to go abroad to study. Shao SiJia had also previously said that she would resign once she recouped the amount of money lost from the Tong contract.

This was actually Shao SiJia’s way of saying goodbye to her colleagues.

Deng Han’s heart felt torn. He felt regretful and disappointed, but he also felt admiration for her.

Although Deng Han hadn’t spent much time with Shao SiJia, he had come to understand her personality somewhat. He knew that Shao SiJia was someone who never said anything she didn’t mean, and never acted in the spur of the moment. So Deng Han stopped persuading Shao SiJia and clapped his hands to get everyone’s attention. “Since it’s like this, let’s all thank SiJia for her generosity.”

Since the team leader said so, the other employees no longer declined Shao SiJia’s offer and instead expressed their thanks. However, some people couldn’t help worrying about Shao SiJia and tried to calculate her bonus for her on a computer. Shao SiJia stole the office chair from them and said: “I can calculate it myself.”

Of course, not everyone was happy about this situation. Bai XiaoFei’s group had rather ugly expressions on their faces, and one even commented in their private group chat: “Youngsters really know how to buy people off, ah.”

Seeing that everyone in the department was acting all nice to Shao SiJia, Bai XiaoFei sneered. She said: “Isn’t this wrong? First off, Shao SiJia was supposed to get those contracts to make up for the Tong contract. That bonus shouldn’t have been hers to keep in the first place. Why are you all acting like she’s so generous?”

Bai XiaoFei, with her senior status and excellent track-record, was still a domineering figure in the office. So as soon as she spoke, everyone subconsciously quieted down.

Meanwhile, Shao SiJia, who was in the middle of typing her resignation letter, raised her head and gave Bai XiaoFei a half-smile. “Louder, I didn’t hear you clearly.”

Bai XiaoFei: “…”

The others: “…”

In the past, whenever Bai XiaoFei wanted to rag on someone, nobody dare spoke up for fear of getting burned. But this time, some people couldn’t stand it anymore and said: “XiaoFei, you’ve said too much.”

At first, Bai XiaoFei was afraid of Shao SiJia. When ShaoSiJia opened her mouth and replied, Bai XiaoFei almost reflexively cowered in fright. However, her anger was aroused when her coworker opened his mouth. She immediately spat back: “What I said was the truth.”

Bai XiaoFei’s confidant also nodded. “Do you really think that Shao SiJia’s that good? XiaoFei’s right. She only achieved such results because Shao SiJia was desperate to make up for the losses she caused. If she really had the ability, then let’s see her get another big contract again.”

Seeing that they were ganging up on the newcomer, Deng Han wanted to speak up. But just as he was about to open his mouth, he received a call from the front desk. He could only pick up the phone and accept the call.

Meanwhile, Shao SiJia stood up and walked towards Bai XiaoFei step by step. She slowly said: “Trying to shove your false arguments down our throats is pointless. I can easily refute your words by telling the truth. But the thing is, I don’t want to let you off so easily…”

Bai XiaoFei and her group: “…”

Bai XiaoFei’s voice shook as she asked: “What do you want to do…”

Suddenly, Deng Han’s surprised voice resounded through the entire office: “SiJia, hurry, and get ready! Mr. Liang of JingGuang came to our company and said he wanted to collaborate with us. He’s now waiting in a conference room and specifically requested that you attend the meeting. Quickly get the necessary documents and come with me.”

In this situation, everyone’s first reaction wasn’t to calculate the amount of money a contract with JingGuang would net. Instead, they all focused their attention toward Bai XiaoFei and her group.

Just a moment ago, Bai XiaoFei’s group had arrogantly tried to suppress Shao SiJia by telling her to get another big contract.

Although everyone knew that Bai XiaoFei’s accusations were unreasonable and that Shao SiJia didn’t need to prove herself, nobody expected the face slap to come so quickly.

Bai XiaoFei’s group, who had always been domineering in the office, had never experienced such embarrassment. As the others looked at them with derisive eyes, they felt very uncomfortable and awkward.

Deng Han had no time to take care of them and hastily told Shao SiJia: “Quickly, quickly. We need to meet Mr. Liang, ah.”

However, Shao SiJia wasn’t as excited as Deng Han.

Because needless to say, it was Liang YanQing who came.

Shao SiJia wasn’t the least bit interested in finding out how Liang YanQing found her, but if he wanted to deliver money to her doorstep, then she didn’t mind chatting for a bit. Shao SiJia swept her gaze through Bai XiaoFei’s group, then loosened her closed fist. “I’ll be back.”

And then, with a swing of her ponytail, she picked up a file and followed Deng Han out of the office.

Bai XiaoFei and her group: “…”

Why do they feel like the upper part of a sewing machine? Trembling so much, ah.

……

Although Liang YanQing suffered a little setback when he met Shao SiJia yesterday, the fire in his heart was burning even brighter.

He was familiar with the independent, principled, never-do-myself-wrong Shao SiJia he met yesterday. Her impolite personality always used to stir him up in the past. But now, whenever he thought of Shao SiJia, he would remember the fact that this self-reliant young woman had once burst into tears as she unwillingly left him. The memory made Liang YanQing’s heart ache.

Knowing that she had been hurt so deeply, Liang YanQing had resolved to forgive Shao SiJia, no matter how many malicious words she throws at him.

So Liang YanQing went back home and had a big fight with Tong SuHong about Shao SiJia. Eventually, he found out where Shao SiJia worked and impatiently arranged to meet her today.

His plan was perfect. Because his company and Tong SuHong’s company were similar, he would just replace them. Since Tong SuHong caused Shao SiJia to lose an important contract, he’ll supply Shao SiJia with a new one. As long as Shao SiJia can be happy, spending money was nothing. Liang YanQing would help Shao SiJia gain a firm foothold in her company and ease her worries.

In order for Shao SiJia to feel his sincerity, Liang YanQing was very friendly during the negotiation process and hardly raised any objections to the terms Shao SiJia had proposed.

Meanwhile, Deng Han was simply dumbfounded.

Mr. Liang’s performance during the meeting could be summed up in one sentence: I’ll give you my money Shao SiJia.

Deng Han: “….”

When negotiations ended, and they came back to the office, he was still baffled.

The people in the office were very excited to know what the results of the negotiations were. However, when they saw the sluggish and dull Deng Han, their hearts sank.

In contrast, Bai XiaoFei’s group struggled to contain their glee. They put on a fake look of pity, and said: “Manager, did the negotiations fall through? Don’t be sad. It’s not easy…”

“Shut up.” Deng Han, a man who had always been a good-tempered, shouted. Then he dreamy smile slowly unfurled on his face as he happily said: “Comrades, the annual goal of our department has been achieved.”

Bai XiaoFei and her group: “???”

Everyone else: “!!!”

Deng Han continued: “General manager Liang signed the contract on the spot!”

Everyone: Fucking hell-

This was the fastest and simplest signing Deng Han had ever seen in his life. Liang YanQing had been extremely responsive to Shao SiJia, but Shao SiJia didn’t take the opportunity to cheat him. Of course, Deng Han wasn’t as polite. He talked about the framework of their collaboration, then directly printed out the contract for Liang YanQing to sign.

Then, Liang YanQing didn’t act ambiguously and actually signed the contract right then and there.

However, what happened next was something Deng Han hadn’t expected. Since Liang YanQing signed such a favorable contract, of course they had to treat him well…right?

But after Liang YanQing had signed the document, Shao SiJia got up, put away the contract, and immediately turned to see the visitor out.

Deng Han: “….”

It was the most ruthless scene he had ever seen in his life.

Deng Han worried that Liang YanQing would be furious, but not only did Liang YanQing not get angry, but he also stopped talking and silently followed Shao SiJia’s lead. In the end, Liang YanQing only dared to ask Shao SiJia to send him downstairs.

Deng Han: “…”

He honestly suspected whether Liang YanQing had been beaten up by Shao SiJia before and had developed Stockholm syndrome.

……

Shao SiJia walked Liang YanQing downstairs in an entirely business-like attitude. She treated him just like any other client.

At the same time, Liang YanQing’s mind was in chaos. He couldn’t stop looking at Shao SiJia, wondering how she must be feeling right now. It made his chest stuffy.

“Alright, we’re here. Travel safe.” Shao SiJia walked out of the front doors and stopped, then attempted to see the guest off with a smile.

It was only then that Liang YanQing realized that there were already outside of the building. He quickly said: “SiJia, let’s go have coffee together.”

But Shao SiJia looked down at her watch. “No, I have to go back and resign.”

Liang YanQing: “???”

Liang YanQing thought he heard wrong. He asked: “What did you say?”

Shao SiJia looked at him. “I’m going abroad next month, so I want to resign before it’s too late.”

Liang YanQing: “…”

Liang YanQing was incredulous. “Then, who will be coordinating with me during the collaboration that I just signed off on?”

Shao SiJia showed him her professional smile and politely told him: “You’re a VIP customer, ah. Our manager will contact you personally.”

Liang YanQing almost collapsed on the spot. Everything he did today was to help Shao SiJia gain a foothold in her company and to make her see his importance in her life. Furthermore, if this collaboration goes well, he’ll have more chances to associate with her at work.

He never expected that Shao SiJia would be resigning. If she really did quit, then wouldn’t his actions today be completely meaningless?

Liang YanQing became exasperated. “Why didn’t you tell me?”

Shao SiJia looked at him strangely. “We have no relation with each other. Why should I tell you?”

Her short sentence directly stopped Liang YanQing’s questioning. What she said was true. She wasn’t his girlfriend, so she had no obligation to report such things to him.

Even so, Liang YanQing still found it hard to leave things like this. He asked: “Are you doing this on purpose?”

Shao SiJia magnanimously replied: “No.”

To her, Liang YanQing was now a complete stranger. What did his opinions have to do with her?

Today’s contract signing was proposed by him, ah. Shao SiJia just did things according to her job and provided the contract. She acted professionally during the entire meeting.

Liang YanQing wasn’t angry because his intentions weren’t pure either. But he couldn’t accept the situation because he had the preconceived idea that Shao SiJia should be trying to get his favor.

Liang YanQing looked at Shao SiJia’s clear and fearless eyes. It was evident that Shao SiJia didn’t think she had swindled him. Still, he couldn’t help but say: “SiJia, don’t go. Come back to me, alright?”

Liang YanQing took a step closer, and his voice dropped a bit, but his innate self-confidence was still present. “I’m willing to do anything for you.”

Shao SiJia casually replied: “No need.”

Liang YanQing’s heart sank, and his eyes dimmed. “Do you even have the smallest amount of feelings for me?”

Shao SiJia silently looked at him and felt that he was nothing more than a memory she couldn’t no longer properly recall. She couldn’t even remember why she had dated him in the first place.

There were plenty of men who said they liked Shao SiJia and have pursued her, but most of them didn’t stick with it once they properly knew her. She didn’t have the best of tempers, and she could beat most of her suitors in a fight. Once they found out about her personality, they would often hesitate and consider whether they could withstand her punch if they ever make a mistake.

Liang YanQing was probably one of her more patient suitors.

While Shao SiJia tried to recall how they began dating, Liang YanQing mistook her silence as hesitation. He began to feel hopeful once more, but as he was about to continue trying to coax Shao SiJia, he heard her say: “No.”

After thinking for so long, Shao SiJia just couldn’t remember their relationship. She really had no feelings for him.

Liang YanQing: “…”

Liang YanQing didn’t want to give up and tried to play the emotional card: “Don’t you remember all the happy times we had when we were dating?”

Shao SiJia replied: “I don’t remember.”

This time, Liang YanQing finally collapsed. He said: “SiJia, don’t be like this. I know you’re still angry at me, but…”

Shao SiJia couldn’t help but find his words a little funny. If she remembers correctly, the reason they broke up was because he cheated on her. Can’t he see that his affectionate words are so contradictory to his previous behavior?

Shao SiJia’s heart wasn’t moved at all. In fact, she even wanted to laugh.

“I’m not mad at you.” SiJia solemnly explained. “But if you try to delay me again, that could change.”

After Shao SiJia said this, her patience was officially exhausted. She turned around to leave, but then the screeching sounds of tires suddenly sounded out.

The two people turned to look towards the source of the sound and saw Tong SuHong get out of a car. She cried out: “Liang YanQing, I knew you were going to look for her!”

Shao SiJia looked at Liang YanQing, greatly amused.
