Why is This Troublemaker So Damn Rich?

"Alright, I'll follow up on this. As for the team's salary increases, I'll go risk my neck and try again.

There's something else I wanted to talk to you about. Today's livestream sale was a huge success. We should definitely do this more often in the future. We need to fight the company for this—it should count toward the Operations Department's performance and KPIs."

After all this time at the company, Dan Biao was finally on the same page as him for once. This was likely because they had a shared interest in this matter.

"Bring it up with the company all at once. If the livestream sales don't count toward my department's performance goals, I definitely won't have any motivation to do this."

Dan Biao's face twitched as he listened.

'What does he mean, no motivation? He's fucking threatening the company again! But why does it sound so damn satisfying? I wish I could say that, but I don't have the guts. Well, I can at least relay the message, right? That should be satisfying enough.'

After he hung up, Huang Lingyu, blushing, took out a wet wipe and handed it to him so he could clean his hands.

He checked the time. Shen Meng's livestream was about to end. "Gotta go. You should head back. I'll ask you out again when I have time."

Huang Lingyu trailed behind him without a word, the very picture of meekness.

'Hmph, you think I'll come just because you ask me out?'

'Sigh, but he's so good to me. I don't think I can find a reason to say no. The main thing is, I feel comfortable with him. He's so naughty, but he's also kind of cute.'

"I'm talking to you. What's wrong, not happy about it?"

"No, no! Just text me if you need anything."

After she said it, she cursed herself internally. 'So pathetic.'

As they exited the movie theater, Huang Lingyu's phone buzzed twice.

She opened the first notification. It was a transfer from Yang Hui: "1000 yuan pending acceptance."

She walked over to him and whispered, "Why are you sending me money again?"

"Didn't I ask you to buy the movie tickets? This is to reimburse you. From now on, when I give you something, just take it. Don't ask so many questions."

"Oh." Getting scolded by him didn't make her angry; in fact, she felt a little thrill. After accepting the transfer, she heard Yang Hui say, "Go on, you can get back to your own things. You don't have to follow me. I'm heading to the store."

He waved his hand and walked away without looking back, as if he wasn't the same person who had his hands all over her in the theater. He didn't show the slightest hint of lingering affection.

She stood there, stunned for a moment, before remembering the other notification. It was from Zheng Lei, asking if she was free for dinner tonight.

She replied, "Have to work overtime." For some reason, just seeing Zheng Lei's name made her feel sick.

Zheng Lei saw her message and felt extremely frustrated. 'Car salespeople have to work overtime every day?' Fortunately, he was already used to this kind of attitude from Huang Lingyu; it had been this way for years.

'I'm so jealous of that guy I saw at the movies. If only Lingyu could be as gentle and considerate as the woman he was with.'

-----------------

Yang Hui arrived at the Airex store and saw that Shen Meng was still livestreaming. Watching from a distance, he could see she was showing signs of fatigue. After all, she had been broadcasting for four hours straight—it was incredibly intense.

The moment it ended, he was the first one in the store. "You've worked hard."

Fatigue bloomed into a faint crimson at the corners of her eyes, like a sunset sweeping across a snowy field. At the sound of his voice, she looked up instinctively, her eyelashes fluttering under the overhead lights and casting fragmented shadows—

Shen Meng took off her headset, the warmth of the microphone still lingering on her fingertips. Her voice was filled with unmistakable joy. "Yang Hui, the livestream went incredibly well today. We sold 1.2 million!"

He immediately understood the source of her joy. On one hand, this sales figure far exceeded any previous livestream, which was a huge accomplishment. On the other hand, today's broadcast proved Yang Hui's idea that NLB and Zen could definitely succeed with an online channel.

The second reason was what made her even happier. She was about to go to Yanghe Commerce to take charge of online livestreams, and she naturally wanted to be a real help to Yang Hui, not just a pretty face.

Ji Kun walked over just then, calling out with a long face, "Boss."

"What's wrong with you? Did someone steal your girlfriend?"

This made Ji Kun feel even worse. "Boss, I don't even have a girlfriend. With my income, I can't even afford to have one."

Knowing he was just milking it for sympathy, Yang Hui sneered. "Alright, just spit it out. I fought for your salary adjustments this time. A 1,000 yuan raise shouldn't be a problem."

"Ah, really? That's great, Boss! Please, give me a chance to treat you to a meal."

"No need. Just focus on doing your job well. What did you want to talk to me about?"

Ji Kun glanced at Shen Meng, hesitating. Yang Hui immediately guessed it was about the livestream.

"Go ahead and speak freely. It's fine."

'Whoa, that was fast. Is Shen Meng already one of us? The boss is a real badass. Handsome, rich… you can't even be jealous of that.'

While grumbling internally, Ji Kun said, "Boss, the livestream sales were so high, but they don't count toward our performance. It sold out our stock, though, which is going to affect our store's sales."

"The livestream features items with large inventories and slow movers. How much of an impact could it have? I don't see you guys selling them in the store on a normal day."

Obviously, if the items were selling well in the store, they wouldn't be slow-moving, and there wouldn't be such a large inventory.

Ji Kun was about to argue, but Yang Hui cut him off impatiently. "Alright, I know what you're getting at. I'll talk to the company. We'll have this performance count toward the Operations Department's overall target, and I'll get a 1% sales commission bonus for the store as compensation for the staff's assistance."

"Long live the boss! The boss is so handsome!"

"I'm out of here. You're being too cringey."

If Zhu Jing had said the same thing, the effect would have been completely different. Hearing it from a young guy like him was a bit nauseating.

As for Ji Kun's offer to treat him to a meal, that was even more out of the question. Wouldn't that just interfere with his mission progress?

He led Shen Meng back to the car and handed her the Medium Sylvie Handbag he was holding. "Here you go. I'd say your satisfaction is... in the bag."

She had just settled into the passenger seat and was about to fasten her seatbelt when he suddenly said that. She didn't get what he meant at first, until she opened the gift and saw it was a handbag. Only then did she realize he was making a pun.

"Thank you, but you really don't have to spend so much. You're giving me gifts every day. Just how rich is your family?"

She liked it, of course, but he had already spent over a hundred thousand on gifts for her in the past few days. It was too extravagant. Besides, she knew he was starting a business and needed money right now.

Yang Hui laughed. "Who cares about money? It's just crap. If we run out, we can just earn more. Besides, haven't you been treating me to dinner every day?"

While the two of them were flirting, Dan Biao entered Li Yang's office with a mix of fear and excitement. He was discovering that challenging the boss's authority was something you either never dared to do, or, once you did it, you got addicted.

And right now, he was addicted. He had to thank his comrade Yang Hui for the "sponsorship." Without that rent reduction agreement, he never would have had the courage to walk in here.
