"That's perfect. Your family has a clothing factory, right? Bringing over that excess inventory for a special sale would definitely be effective."
He was also eyeing the Zheng Family's product resources. If he mentored Zheng Lei, the Zheng Family would surely provide some support with their goods.
"Okay, Brother Cui. I heard this Xinyue Square is pretty awesome. Are you planning to do the special sale here?"
Brother Cui sighed. "I'd like to, but we can't get in. This mall is too high-end. They don't allow special sales because it would hurt their image."
Just then, Zheng Lei casually glanced toward the movie theater diagonally across from them. He saw a woman in professional attire, her back turned to them. She was about 168 centimeters tall, similar to Huang Lingyu, and from the back, her figure was incredible.
At that moment, the woman was turned to the side, feeding popcorn to the man next to her.
They were too far away for him to see their faces clearly. Zheng Lei felt a pang of envy and thought, 'If only Lingyu could be as gentle with me as that woman is with that man.'
"What's up? See something?"
Brother Cui asked curiously, noticing him staring blankly at the movie theater.
Zheng Lei pointed and said, "There's a hot chick over there who looks gorgeous, but she's waiting on that guy. I'm so jealous."
Brother Cui also craned his neck for a look, then turned back and said, "Fuck, that woman has a great body. The guy's lucky. Who knows what'll happen once they go inside?"
"No way, Brother Cui. Are you saying that in the movie theater, they'd do... that—"
Brother Cui let out a sly laugh. "At this time of day, the theater's empty. Some movies have no audience at all. It's like they've booked the whole place for themselves. It's perfectly normal for them to get up to something."
"Besides, with a body that amazing, do you think that guy could control himself?"
Being young, Zheng Lei's face flushed with excitement when he heard this. "Damn, I'm so jealous of him. If he doesn't make a move, it'd be a total waste."
"Alright, stop worrying about them. If you keep thinking about it, your dick will start aching with envy."
Zheng Lei was indeed getting a bit worked up. He took a sip of his iced drink to cool down and said with a wicked grin, "I hope that guy seizes the opportunity."
Brother Cui roared with laughter. "You're a real piece of work, aren't you? Not telling him to cherish the fair maiden."
After saying this, they both burst into sly laughter.
The movie started, and Yang Hui led Huang Lingyu inside. In the huge auditorium, it was really just the two of them.
"Looks like we've booked the whole theater today."
Huang Lingyu covered her mouth and chuckled softly. They hadn't even spent a hundred yuan, and they had the whole theater to themselves. What a bargain.
Whether it was a coincidence or not, the movie was an urban romance drama.
It told the story of a heroine who, while cheating on her boyfriend, falls in love with the male lead. Huang Lingyu's ears suddenly turned red, but the dim lighting did a good job of hiding her current embarrassment.
'Does he think I picked this movie on purpose? Will he think I'm hinting at something?'
Her mind wasn't on the movie at all. She secretly snuck a glance at Yang Hui's profile, but the light was too dim to see clearly. Suddenly, she felt his large, searing hand rest on her thigh again.
Huang Lingyu's breath caught in her throat. The warmth from his hand on her smooth thigh felt like a low-voltage current, shooting up her nerves straight to the small of her back—
Her knees clamped together unconsciously. The artery behind her ear throbbed, and her right hand suddenly clenched the popcorn bucket.
She pressed her lips together, trying not to make a sound, but his hand ventured deeper...
"Yang Hui..." As she lowered her voice, the tip of her tongue trembled against her teeth. It seemed like fear, but also like she was playing hard to get.
He wrapped an arm around her waist, motioning for her to come over and straddle him, just like that night at the KTV.
The second button of her silk blouse came undone as his scorching lips explored their way down her neck.
The moment his palm covered her bottom, her thighs tensed reflexively. The searing heat of his touch contrasted sharply with her back, which was cool from the air conditioning, creating a world of ice and fire.
"There are... there are cameras."
She was still holding on to her last bit of clarity, reminding him it wasn't safe here. Only then did Yang Hui lift his head from her chest, though his large hands continued to knead her plump bottom.
Zheng Lei and Brother Cui sat for a while longer before leaving the tea shop. As they left, Zheng Lei shot a lingering glance toward the movie theater. "Wonder if those two got it on?"
Brother Cui laughed. "Zheng Lei, you really need to get a girlfriend. You're a little too worked up."
"I do have a girlfriend! And she's gorgeous—she was our high school's belle."
Brother Cui gave him a surprised look, unsure if he was more curious about how a school belle could fall for him, or why he still acted so thirsty despite having a school belle for a girlfriend.
At Futong Commerce's logistics department, they were about to be swamped. In just a few hours, Shen Meng's livestream had already generated over a million in sales.
The logistics department would have to arrange for overtime to ship out the orders. After Li Yang found out, he made a special call to the logistics supervisor, telling him to fully cooperate with the shipping and that he would be held responsible if any problems arose.
After hanging up, Li Yang sat in his executive chair and thought of Yang Hui again—that thorn in his side whom he both loved and hated. He had brought him so much humiliation, but also so much profit.
"Have Xiaodan come in."
Dan Biao received a call from Cai Miao. Li Yang was looking for him. Unsure if the boss's anger from the morning had subsided, he knocked on the door with a sense of unease before entering.
Li Yang's face was all smiles, which allowed Dan Biao to relax a little. He had been worried that Li Yang wouldn't let it go and would continue the topic from the meeting about "not letting Yang Hui work here anymore."
He had naturally also heard about Shen Meng's sales performance during the Airex livestream. The results were astounding. The only pity was that this performance didn't count toward the operations department's KPIs.
"Xiaodan, I wanted to see you about a few things. Regarding the salary adjustment for the Airex team that you brought up this morning, I think you made a good point. Their recent performance has been excellent, and it wouldn't be right not to give them a raise. I've decided to grant their entire team a total raise pool of 2,500 yuan. As for how to distribute it, you can discuss it with Yang Hui."
Dan Biao kept his head down, pretending to take notes, but inwardly he was filled with contempt.
'I can't believe you actually caved. What did I even say that was so reasonable? You've clearly compromised, but you're too proud to admit it. You're acting like you're not being forced by him, but that you just think what *I* said makes sense, right? Well then, why don't you give me the authority to adjust salaries for the entire operations department?'
'And you want me to discuss it with him? Discuss my ass! Isn't this just letting him decide how to distribute it? Still, there are five supervisors on the team, and you're giving a 2,500 yuan pool. That's only 500 per person. Is that really going to satisfy Yang Hui?'
He thought for a moment. To avoid having an unsatisfied Yang Hui come looking for Li Yang himself, which would surely cause another huge storm, it was better to clarify everything at once while the boss was in a good mood.
"Boss, Yang Hui mentioned this morning that the average salary for the supervisors on his team is over 1,000 yuan lower than on other teams. He hopes this salary adjustment can make up for that gap."
