TVSFPAG -Chapter 21 Don’t Buy It, Get Lost

The two of them stayed at the mall the entire day. They only had two cups of milk tea and spent a little over a hundred yuan on a hot pot meal.

On the way back, Song Yunfei noticed that Chu Jinhan had become more silent, as if something was weighing on his mind.

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” she asked.

Chu Jinhan shook his head. “I’m fine. Just a bit tired.”

“Then get some rest early tonight.”

“Mm.”

It wasn’t clear whether Wang Yi was about to leave, but recently the neighbors had been playing games quite frequently.

Not just at midnight—sometimes even at two or three in the morning, enough to wake Song Yunfei.

She didn’t know whether Chu Jinhan had woken up, but she herself had been disturbed.

Since she was awake, she simply stared at the dark ceiling in silence, not daring to make a single sound.

Soon, Monday arrived.

Song Yunfei had to resume her daily routine of making phone calls and handing out flyers.

However, just as she sat down today, Xiao Shuang came over and stood beside her.

“Xiao Song, have you had breakfast?” Xiao Shuang asked.

Song Yunfei looked up and saw her holding a bag of breakfast. She wondered if it was meant for her.

She smiled and said, “I’ve already eaten.”

“Alright then. This is for you.” Xiao Shuang placed another cup of coffee on her desk and explained, “Bought it on the way—buy one get one free.”

“Thanks.” Song Yunfei didn’t refuse and accepted the coffee.

Xiao Shuang smiled. “No need to thank me. I should be thanking you instead.”

Song Yunfei knew she was referring to what happened on Saturday, when Chu Jinhan helped beat up Wu Wei on her behalf.

“It’s nothing. No need to be so polite.”

Then, recalling the gossip she had heard earlier, she curiously asked Xiao Shuang, “How long have you been here?”

“About half a year,” Xiao Shuang replied.

“That’s quite a while.”

Xiao Shuang sighed. “Yeah, but turnover in our line is very high. Apart from Sister Li and Li Shanshan, everyone else hasn’t been here long.”

Song Yunfei was somewhat aware of this.

Because the base salary only lasted for three months. After that, there was nothing.

Many people couldn’t sell a single unit in three months and would eventually leave.

Of course, they could stay—but without income.

If Song Yunfei couldn’t sell a property within three months, she would probably consider quitting as well.

“Then you’re pretty impressive—you’ve lasted half a year. You must have sold at least one property, right?”

Hearing this, Xiao Shuang’s expression became slightly unnatural. She nodded. “Mm… I only sold one second-hand unit.”

“As long as you’ve sold one, that’s already impressive.”

But Xiao Shuang didn’t seem to want to continue the conversation. She forced a smile and returned to her workstation.

Xiao Shuang was somewhat attractive—neither outstanding nor plain—and her personality seemed a bit introverted.

Most likely, she had been influenced by that jerk Zhang Tao.

On her first day at work, Zhang Tao had subtly hinted at things to her as well. But when he realized she wasn’t receptive, he stopped.

Monday was a terrible day for Song Yunfei.

Half of the people on today’s call list were unfriendly.

“Don’t buy it. Get lost.”

“Buy your mother’s—stop calling!”

“Add me as a friend, let me see your legs.”

“…”

After hanging up the calls, Song Yunfei finally ended this terrible day.

She stretched and checked the time—it was only six o’clock. Chu Jinhan had just gotten off work and would still need to wait another half hour.

They had already agreed in the morning that Chu Jinhan would pick her up after work and then go deliver food afterward.

At that moment, Xiao Shuang walked over and asked, “Xiao Song, are you off work?”

Song Yunfei glanced at her. “Oh, you go ahead first. I’ll leave a bit later.”

“Alright.”

Xiao Shuang didn’t say anything more and turned to leave the sales office.

With nothing else to do, Song Yunfei took out her notebook and reviewed the potential clients she had recorded over the past few days, checking which ones she could follow up on.

Meanwhile, on the other side—

Chu Jinhan was preparing to leave work when his boss suddenly came into the office and stopped everyone who was about to leave.

“Hold on, everyone. Let’s have a meeting.”

As soon as he said this, everyone let out sighs and complaints.

Why did meetings always have to be held after work?

After everyone gathered in the conference room, Mr. He didn’t waste time with long speeches.

He went straight to the point. “Let me ask—does anyone here know German or French?”

Everyone looked at each other.

Hu Yao asked, “Mr. He, we mainly work with Japanese, English, and American markets. No one here knows German, right?”

The boss sighed. “In a few days there will be an exhibition, and German clients will be attending.”

In truth, the factory’s recent performance hadn’t been great, so Mr. He wanted to expand into overseas markets.

Originally, because the domestic market was too competitive, they had shifted toward foreign markets. Now, most of their orders came from abroad.

But even foreign trade was becoming increasingly competitive, so they needed to develop additional channels.

This exhibition was a great opportunity, which is why Mr. He hoped someone on the team knew a foreign language.

He had actually started recruiting a month ago, but hadn’t found anyone.

German speakers were rare, and even when they existed, their salary expectations were high. Even if the pay was sufficient, they might not be interested in such a small factory.

With the exhibition only a couple of days away, Mr. He could only try his luck. If it didn’t work, he would have to give up on the German market.

“Or if any of you know someone who speaks German, feel free to recommend them to the company. I’ll give a referral bonus.”

Some people became interested. Someone asked, “Mr. He, would Korean speakers work?”

The boss shook his head. “No, it has to be German. Korean speakers are easier to hire internally. Besides, many exhibitors at the event will speak Korean—we wouldn’t have an advantage.”

He had already researched the other companies. Right now, German language ability was the biggest advantage.

“I don’t know anyone.”

Someone muttered quietly, “If I knew someone who spoke German, I wouldn’t still be working in this lousy place.”

Seeing everyone shaking their heads in disappointment, Mr. He couldn’t help but feel a bit let down.

He suddenly looked at the silent Chu Jinhan. “Xiao Chu, I remember your resume said you know several foreign languages. Do you?”

Everyone else also turned to look at him.

Chu Jinhan looked at Mr. He and paused for a moment. “I’m not sure.”

Mr. He froze. “What do you mean, not sure?”

Chu Jinhan said, “I’m not certain myself.”

His resume had been prepared by Song Yunfei. Since he had lost his memory, how could he remember his own qualifications? He himself couldn’t recall them.

That answer left Mr. He momentarily speechless.

After a second of silence, Mr. He immediately instructed the HR department to bring over Chu Jinhan’s records.

After reviewing his information again, Mr. He’s eyes lit up with excitement.
