Chapter 411: Chapter 448: Inviting Su Wan

Chapter Four Hundred Forty-Eight

Long Xiaoshan knew about Su Wan’s capabilities. They had impressed him when they had previously worked together, but because Lily Hotel was his business partner, he felt uncomfortable poaching staff.

Now, of course, there were no such concerns.

Hearing that Long Xiaoshan had a matter to discuss with her, Su Wan didn’t hesitate any longer and instructed the tow truck to head to the 4S shop.

She then got into Long Xiaoshan’s Great Wall SUV.

Long Xiaoshan turned the car around and headed towards QY City. Puzzled, he said, “Sister Su Wan, are you really no longer working at Lily Hotel? Why did you resign? I felt Chairman Shangguan valued you highly, was she really willing to let you go?”

Su Wan’s expression darkened, “Chairman Shangguan is no longer at the hotel.”

“What!” Long Xiaoshan was genuinely surprised now, “Isn’t that her hotel? And the Lily Hotel is quite profitable, isn’t it? How come she’s no longer there, did something happen?”

After all, as a business partner of Shangguan Baihe, if she really was in trouble, Long Xiaoshan wouldn’t ignore it.

“I don’t know the specifics. All I know is that Chairman Shangguan seems to have been called back home by her family. As for the hotel, later on, a new person took over management. It’s said to be a relative of the chairman. The hotel is still in Chairman Shangguan’s name on paper, but he has taken over. What I did afterwards… wasn’t meaningful to me, so I resigned,” Su Wan explained.

There seemed to be some hidden meaning in Su Wan’s tone.

It was likely that there were other reasons for her resignation as well.

With a new ruler comes new officials, and without Shangguan Baihe, Su Wan probably didn’t have a good time at the hotel. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have given up such a well-paying job.

Moreover, Su Wan looked somewhat haggard; she definitely hadn’t had a good time lately.

Long Xiaoshan asked, “Do you have another job now?”

“I’m looking. I’m in touch with a few companies, but nothing has been finalized yet. I came back to Qingyuan this time for an interview with a company,” Su Wan said.

“Don’t go. I have a job for you,” Long Xiaoshan offered.

“You’re hiring me?” Su Wan’s eyes seemed to brighten for a moment before she shook her head, “Forget it, Xiaoshan. I know you want to help me out of regard for our friendship, but it’s not necessary. With my experience at Lily Hotel, I can still find a job.”

“Who said it’s about our friendship? I value Sister Su Wan for your competence. We’ve known each other for so long, do I not know your abilities? I’ve recently invested in a medicinal materials company in Hechuan City. The original chairman is looking for a professional manager to help her manage the company. I think Sister Su Wan, you are a good fit to take on the role of president of this medicinal materials company,” Long Xiaoshan said.

“President?” Su Wan was stupefied.

She thought Long Xiaoshan might offer her a position like a department manager at best.

But now it was the position of a company president.

This was a role with significant power, second only to one, and above ten thousand others. Moreover, if the chairman doesn’t involve herself in the management, the president would be the top figure of a company.

“It won’t work. I have no experience in that area, how could I be a president.” After regaining her composure, Su Wan hurriedly said, “Xiaoshan, you’re overestimating me. The position of president is too important. I’m afraid I won’t do well. You should find someone with experience.”

“It’s okay, everyone has a first time, and when you were at Lily Hotel, you had already reached the middle and upper management level. In fact, you were just a step away from being president. Now, I am just helping you to take that step. I believe in your abilities, Sister Su Wan. You can definitely do it,” Long Xiaoshan earnestly encouraged.

Su Wan was actually very tempted, but she was still worried, “What kind of medicinal materials company is it? I have never dealt with this industry.”

“Bai’s Medicinal Materials Company, have you heard of it?”

“Bai’s… Bai’s Medicinal Materials!” Su Wan’s eyes widened in shock, “Are you talking about the company that held an auction a few days ago?”

“Yes, you’ve heard of it?” Long Xiaoshan asked with a smile.

“How could I not have heard of it? The word is they auctioned off a two-hundred-year-old Snow Lotus and it went for over a billion,” Su Wan said in astonishment.

“It wasn’t that much, the Snow Lotus went for just a billion, but all the other items added up to around sixteen or seventeen billion,” Long Xiaoshan said nonchalantly.

Su Wan didn’t even know how to comment…

Sixteen or seventeen billion, yet it sounded so casual when coming out of Long Xiaoshan’s mouth, almost like sixteen or seventeen thousand.

However, the auction alone showed the strength of Bai’s Medicinal Materials. It was even more powerful than the Lily Hotel. Suddenly being told to manage such a huge company, her heart couldn’t quite take it, and she said, “Xiaoshan, forget it. Such a large company, it’s too frivolous to have me manage it. I won’t go.”

This kind of attitude made Long Xiaoshan appreciate her even more. Most people would have been overwhelmed with excitement at such an opportunity. He gave a slight smile and said, “Sister Su Wan, don’t be so quick to refuse. It’s just a suggestion for now. Let’s wait until I take you to Bai’s Medicinal Materials, you can check it out yourself, and then make a decision, how about that?”

“Alright, I’ll go take a look.”

Su Wan took a deep breath. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was something she was really happy about deep down. She was just afraid of not doing well and letting Long Xiaoshan down. But with such a sincere offer from Long Xiaoshan, it would be too poor of her not to even have the courage to try.

“That’s the right attitude, Sister Su Wan. What’s wrong with giving it a try?” Long Xiaoshan said.

Su Wan looked at Long Xiaoshan somewhat curiously, without saying a word for a long while.

“What’s wrong? Do you think I’ve gotten handsomer than before?” Long Xiaoshan joked.

“Psh.” Su Wan’s face turned slightly red and said, “Your skin is so thick these days, not at all like when I first met you. It’s really amazing to think about it. When I met you, you were looking for a job at the job fair, facing rejection everywhere. Later you even spent a night in the park with your sister because you couldn’t afford a 20 yuan hostel. And in just a few months, you’re casually talking about billions and offering me a president position. If I didn’t know you, I would most definitely think you’re a big scammer, up to no good both financially and romantically.”

“So, would Sister Su Wan want to be conned by me?”

Long Xiaoshan looked into Su Wan’s watery, peach-blossom eyes very seriously as he spoke.

Su Wan’s eyes were exceptionally charming and alluring, almost as if they were flirting. His first impression of them had been extremely memorable.

Being stared at by Long Xiaoshan’s deep and clear eyes, Su Wan’s heartbeat quickened. Not having seen him for a few months, Long Xiaoshan had truly become much more handsome and mature. His sharp features and deep gaze that seemed to pull you in were now exuding the charm of a mature man.

And that slight mischievous smile at the corner of his mouth was simply a woman’s nemesis.

“What do you want to con me out of? I have no money. If you’re planning to con me for my body, I’m not willing at all. My body is for my future husband. I would never let a bad guy like you get me into bed, let alone be played with by you,” she said.
