Coming to gloat at Manager Yang’s expense at a time like this would naturally get you treated like an enemy.
There were only five people in the store now: Chen Lele and four sales associates.
Originally, they wouldn’t have even hit 80% of their performance target for the month, meaning no one would get a single cent in bonuses.
Chen Lele’s take-home pay for the month would have been less than 2,600 yuan, and the sales associates wouldn’t have even made 1,800.
But now? With the added 120,000 from the group purchase, their monthly performance exceeded 260,000, achieving 130% of their target.
Not only would they receive their commission bonuses, but because they had exceeded their target, all the staff would get a 6% commission, and Chen Lele would get an additional 1.5% as a whole-store bonus.
This month, Chen Lele’s take-home pay shot past 6,500 yuan, and the sales associates’ average take-home pay broke 5,600 yuan.
It was the first time Chen Lele had ever earned such a high salary since joining the store. The two sales associates who were about to resign decided to stay, and now they were full of energy!
’Such a good leader gets reprimanded right after he arrives. There’s something wrong with this company’s management!’
Just as she was feeling indignant on Yang Hui’s behalf, a new email notification popped up on her computer screen. She opened it. Huh? ’Manager Yang is fighting back?’
"Manager Wang: I have received the penalty email and have a few questions:
"1. The Airex operations department promised to collect payment before close of business on May 31st. Why was a penalty email sent before the deadline?
"2. When a payment issue is caused by an accounting discrepancy from the Erke brand, why are the responsible parties for that brand not held accountable in any way?
"Finally, the 1.2 million yuan payment has been received. Please have HR and the Finance Department verify this. The transfer receipt is attached below!"
Wang Xiao was immediately put on the spot. However, she knew Yang Hui wasn’t targeting her; he had spoken to her on the phone about this beforehand.
This email was more an expression of dissatisfaction with President Li and Cai Miao. She just hadn’t expected him to drag President Li’s nephew, Zhang Li, the head of operations for the Erke brand, into it as well!
Yang Hui had CC’d his reply to the entire company, so everyone could see it.
What happened next was up to Li Yang!
She couldn’t understand why Yang Hui was being so high-profile the moment he joined the company. ’You’re a manager who was parachuted in. You should know when to lie low. You’ve offended all the people you can’t afford to offend. How are you going to build a career in this company now?’
But Yang Hui’s current strategy was to identify the "untouchables" in the company and then confront them directly. Never mind this small fry—he even wanted to challenge Li Yang himself. ’If you don’t like it, fire me!’
When Li Yang saw Yang Hui’s reply, his face turned ashen. He grabbed the internal line and dialed. "Cai Miao, get Wang Xiao and come to my office!"
Cai Miao was in a panic now. This was a massive screw-up. They had punished someone who was not only doing their job but had succeeded, and now that person had replied to the entire company!
’How are we going to clean up this mess?’
He hurriedly entered Li Yang’s office with Wang Xiao.
"Damn it, do the two of you work without using your brains?"
Li Yang started cursing immediately. Wang Xiao looked up at him, a guiltless expression on her face.
Probably realizing he was in the wrong and that Wang Xiao had been unfairly blamed, Li Yang softened his tone with her slightly. "Send an email to the entire company immediately:
1. Rescind the disciplinary action against Yang Hui and Zhu Jing.
2. Report Cai Miao for disciplinary action for ’miscommunicating’ my order to send the penalty email after work as an order to send it immediately. Give him a minor demerit and a 200 yuan fine!
3. Give Erke’s Operations Manager Zhang Li a minor demerit. If he cannot find the discrepancy by June 5th, suspend his salary!"
Wang Xiao jotted down the main points with a pen and left.
With this move, Yang Hui had truly offended Cai Miao and Zhang Li. As for President Li, he was probably furious too, but the company was undeniably in the wrong on this matter.
But no one had expected Yang Hui to be so bold as to CC his counter-attack to the whole company. On her way out, she could hear many people discussing it.
Yang Hui had made a name for himself in one fell swoop. The title of "Futong Commerce’s Number One Hothead" was now his and his alone.
And Cai Miao had to take the fall for President Li. If he were to say now that President Li had approved sending the penalty email before the end of the day, how could President Li save face?
After Wang Xiao left, Li Yang was so angry he crumpled up the report in his hands and threw it directly at Cai Miao’s face. "You idiot, you made me lose face too!"
Cai Miao’s face was pale, and he didn’t dare say a word.
"You motherfucker, weren’t you talking so high and mighty just now? Weren’t you the one who said there’d be no problem and suggested sending the email? Cat got your tongue now? Why are you playing the coward?"
"Just looking at your pathetic ass pisses me off. Go close the door, then come back and lick me!"
While all this was happening, Yang Hui had already left the office. Before he left, he instructed them to be sure to enter the group purchase performance data tonight without any mistakes.
Of course they wouldn’t make a mistake; this was directly tied to their income. They were even willing to work overtime tonight to get it done carefully. A few supervisors were even planning to go to the store after hours to oversee the task before heading home.
He parked his car in the underground garage and took the elevator upstairs. He had gotten off work early today, arriving home a little before Wenren Du’Er.
As soon as he walked in the door, he heard a noise from the kitchen. He figured it was the housekeeper Liu Shasha had helped him find, here to cook dinner.
He walked over, ready to say hello.
At the same time, he sent a text to Liu Shasha to thank her.
When he reached the kitchen doorway, he was about to speak but froze.
’This is the housekeeper?’
’She’s more like a pretty young woman!’
She stood before the stove, wearing an apron. Despite her homely attire, she couldn’t hide an ostentatious sexiness.
The apron strings cinched a slender waistline. Her collar was slightly open, and a speck of oil glistened on her collarbone like a deliberately placed diamond chip.
Her jeans hugged a pair of straight legs, and though she wore teddy bear slippers, she walked as if in ten-centimeter heels, each step carrying an unconscious sway.
She looked to be about 173 cm tall, and her looks far surpassed Liu Shasha’s, even prettier than Yang Na.
Perhaps sensing she was being watched, she quickly turned her head and saw a handsome man staring at her.
She instantly became a little uncomfortable. The unrestrained sexiness from before vanished, replaced by a quick composure.
"You must be Mr. Yang?"
He nodded. "And you are?"
He had seen a photo of the person Liu Shasha had recommended—a woman who was nearly 50.
This was definitely not the same person, unless that housekeeper was some kind of shape-shifting spirit.
"My name is Wenren Meng!"
Wenren? It wasn’t a common surname, but it happened to be the same as the little girl’s.
"Are you Du’Er’s...?"
The dish Wenren Meng was stir-frying was ready. She turned off the range hood, wiped her hands, and replied softly, looking a bit constrained, "I’m Du’Er’s aunt!"
So, Wenren Du’Er had taken her mother’s family name.
Fearing he might stir up unpleasant memories, Yang Hui almost never talked to Wenren Du’Er about her family, so he didn’t know these things.
BUZZ~
A message arrived on his phone.
"Liu Shasha: Thank me for what? This afternoon, your little princess said someone was already here to cook, so she sent the housekeeper away!"
