Canceling Tang Pavilion’s Rating—What’s Wrong with a Ride-Hailing Driver Having Some Money? (1)
Everyone present was shocked by Yang Chen’s words.
Yang Chen actually told Zhang Lin to kneel down and apologize to Xu Xiaowan, and even suggested she replace Zhang Lin as the purchasing manager of Michelin’s Haicheng factory?
How much power would it take to make the factory director’s brother-in-law so humble?
Gao Yun quickly said, “Boss, I didn’t mean to belittle you. You are the owner of Tang Pavilion, and I know you are not a simple person. But they are a Fortune 500 company, Michelin, and a foreign company. How can you get them to fire the factory director’s brother-in-law from the Haicheng factory? You would need to be at least at the CEO level of the headquarters to do that, right? Can you reach that level of connection?”
Yang Chen: “That’s not a question you should be asking. You are also a woman. Shouldn’t women help women? Why are you helping the wicked to persecute your subordinates? Other leaders protect their own, and absolutely don’t allow their subordinates to be bullied. But you’re good, you can’t wait to push your subordinates into the fire pit. A person like you can be a manager? Your company must not be very good either. Xu Xiaowan, immediately call the company’s HR department and say you quit immediately.”
Xu Xiaowan didn’t hesitate at all and took out her phone to make the call, which shows that Yang Chen has a very important place in her heart, so important that she does what he says without hesitation.
Gao Yun quickly stopped Xu Xiaowan and said, “Xiaowan, are you crazy? You actually believe his words? Yes, he is the owner of Tang Pavilion and must be very rich. But Michelin is a Fortune 500 company. Michelin’s executives must be among the top ten on the rich list to have a chance to speak. Don’t you understand this simple principle? In this economic situation, it is not easy to find a job. Many companies don’t want people over 35 years old. These people have to lower their salary requirements to join small companies in order to support their families. If you quit now, your position will be replaced immediately. When you find out you’ve been deceived by him, it will be impossible for you to come back.”
Xu Xiaowan smiled confidently and replied, “I believe Yang Chen won’t lie to me. I know Michelin is a very powerful company, and ordinary people can’t reach it. But I just believe Yang Chen’s words, I believe him for no reason.”
After speaking, Xu Xiaowan was about to dial the phone number of the head of the HR department.
Gao Yun quickly grabbed her and said, “Don’t be impulsive! How about this, I’ll come with you tomorrow night to see what tricks he’s playing. If he really has a way to let you replace Zhang Lin, it won’t be too late to resign. If he’s just talking big, you won’t be deceived into losing your hard-won job. Don’t you think so?”
Xu Xiaowan: “No need! Even if he really deceives me, I’ll accept it.”
Yang Chen: “Then come over tomorrow night to finalize things before you resign. Where do you live?”
Xu Xiaowan: “Home Inn.”
Yang Chen: “Okay. Then go back, and be careful on the road. Tomorrow night at seven o’clock, don’t forget.”
Xu Xiaowan nodded and said, “Okay, I will be there on time.”
Yang Chen nodded and left with Zhuo Wenjun.
Looking at Yang Chen’s departing back, Xu Xiaowan felt a pang of bitterness in her heart.
Perhaps, she will only be able to bury that feeling in her heart for the rest of her life.
Gao Yun sighed and said, “You are such a fool! He already has a girlfriend, no matter how much you like him,

you shouldn’t have any more involvement with him. You’re just courting death; sooner or later, you’ll be deceived by him and have no choice but to seek death.”
Gao Yun’s words sounded like she was concerned about Xu Xiaowan, but that was not the case.
How could someone who actively pushes subordinates to customers care about their feelings?
The reason she said these words was actually to keep Xu Xiaowan.
Zhang Lin said very clearly that he had taken a fancy to Xu Xiaowan.
If he doesn’t get what he wants, the company’s order may be hopeless.
In the final analysis, Gao Yun is still for the sake of the order.
Xu Xiaowan smiled and said, “I think Yang Chen is right. As my immediate boss, when I encounter a jerk customer, you don’t protect me but force me to accept the other party’s rogue behavior. You are trash.”
Gao Yun: “Xiaowan, how can you talk like that? Why are you scolding people? I’m doing this for the good of the company! If the company makes money, everyone’s salary can be paid on time, and the benefits will be better. If the company doesn’t have orders, let alone benefits, it’s a problem if the salary can be paid on time. Don’t you understand this principle?”
Xu Xiaowan: “You’re so funny. I’m just a worker, and I have to consider the problems that the boss should consider. Am I too idle, or are you guys asking for too much?”
Gao Yun was speechless by Xu Xiaowan’s retort, and her mouth moved a few times, but she couldn’t say anything.
Xu Xiaowan went back to the private room to get her bag and left without looking back.
Tang Pavilion’s store manager, Li Enhui, quickly chased after her and said, “Miss Xu, let me see you off.”
Xu Xiaowan: “No, no, you go ahead and do your work; don’t worry about me.”
Li Enhui: “Yes, yes. When President Yang left just now, he told me to treat you well. I sympathize with your experience, and I also hate all workplace unspoken rules. However, you are lucky to have a classmate like President Yang. Don’t worry, President Yang’s words will definitely be fulfilled. Just wait until tomorrow to take over Zhang Lin’s position as purchasing manager.”
Xu Xiaowan nodded and asked in a low voice, “Thank you. I remember that Yang Chen used to be the second shareholder of Baoqing Restaurant. Later, he acquired Baoqing Restaurant and renamed it Qiaojiangnan Group and listed it. I didn’t expect him to buy Tang Pavilion again. It seems that he is going to make a big splash in the catering industry.”
Li Enhui: “Haha… These are nothing at all. To put it bluntly, if President Yang didn’t like to eat some delicacies, he might not even look at the catering industry now. Put your heart at ease and prepare to be the purchasing manager of Michelin’s Haicheng factory. However, President Yang trusts you so much; you have to live up to it yourself and don’t let President Yang down. At the very least, you have to do your job well so as not to give those who are interested an excuse to say that he is using his power for personal gain.”
Xu Xiaowan: “I will definitely do my best to do my job well. If my personal ability is really not up to the job, I will take the initiative to resign and not give others an excuse to attack Yang Chen.”
Li Enhui sent her to the door and said, “It’s good that you know what’s in your heart. We will all be President Yang’s people in the future. Let’s add each other as friends, contact each other more, and come over to play when you have time. I will definitely treat you well.”
When Xu Xiaowan heard “all President Yang’s people,” she was immediately overjoyed.
She quickly took out her phone and added Li Enhui as a friend, and they said goodbye to each other and left.
At this time, Gao Yun chased after her.

”Xiaowan, I won’t persuade you anymore; I just want to remind you to be more careful. You must not have the heart to harm others, but you must have the heart to guard against others. He already has such a beautiful girlfriend; there is no reason to be so nice to you. So, there must be something fishy in this; you must be careful,” Gao Yun provoked.
Xu Xiaowan chuckled and said, “I have already said that even if I am deceived by him, I am willing to do so, which can just break the thoughts in my heart, which is also a good thing for me.”
Gao Yun smiled awkwardly and was too embarrassed to say anything more.
Back at the hotel, Gao Yun immediately called her boss, Yu Xin, and told him the situation in detail.
Yu Xin: “This Zhang Lin is really not a human being. But this is the workplace rule; you have to abide by it if you come out to work; otherwise, don’t come out to work. Where is Xu Xiaowan? Is she next to you? Give her the phone.”
Gao Yun handed the phone to Xu Xiaowan on the bed next to her and said, “President Yu wants to talk to you.”
Xu Xiaowan took the phone and said, “President Yu, you don’t need to say anything; I have decided to resign. No matter whether the HR department approves it or not, I must leave.”
Yu Xin held back a lot of words to train Xu Xiaowan, but they were all beaten back into his stomach by her words.
”Ah? Is it necessary? Why resign when you are doing so well? Some things are workplace rules; you can only abide by them when you come out to work. What is this? Why did I buy a Porsche last week, but I paid for it and picked up the car more than two months later? Isn’t it because their sales staff took the initiative to accompany me a few times before I placed the order? For me, the car must be bought, but which 4S store [car dealership] to buy it from is my choice. The salesperson also knows this in her heart, so she must take the initiative to dedicate herself to me in order to facilitate the transaction. Can you understand this principle? Zhang Lin is the same; Michelin must purchase raw materials, but which supplier to give it to is up to Zhang Lin. If you don’t give him some benefits, why should he give us the order? Are you right?” Yu Xin analyzed “earnestly.”
Xu Xiaowan: “But the company is yours; you are the one who makes money; shouldn’t you give him the benefits? You can send your wife to him and give him the benefits.”
Yu Xin: “How can you talk like that? Grass! Don’t push your nose on your face!” [Don’t be so disrespectful!]
Xu Xiaowan: “Look, you yourself feel that this kind of thing is not good, even if you can make a lot of money, and you don’t have to worry about orders for the next year, such huge benefits are in front of you, you are not willing to send your wife to him. Then why should I, a sales assistant who earns 8,000 yuan a month, dedicate myself to him?”
Yu Xin was speechless by Xu Xiaowan’s retort, and he couldn’t wait to fly over and beat her up.
Gao Yun quickly said from the side: “Xiaowan, how can you talk to President Yu like that? Don’t you have basic manners?”
Xu Xiaowan: “Manners? Do you deserve it? Have you two been polite to me?”
Yu Xin: “That college classmate who runs a restaurant gave you confidence, right? The owner of Tang Pavilion, right? Okay, I’ll let you see his strength clearly, and you’ll know how ridiculous your current behavior is.”
Xu Xiaowan: “I advise you not to mess around; you may not be able to bear the consequences. Yang Chen will never say
Canceling Tang Pavilion’s Rating—What’s Wrong with a Ride-Hailing Driver Having Some Money? (4)
big words to deceive me, because there is no need. He said that he can let me be the purchasing manager of Michelin, and I will definitely be able to do it. If you have any excessive behavior, when I become the purchasing manager of Michelin, your company will be directly blacklisted by me.”
Yu Xin: “You’re dreaming! I can become a supplier of Michelin; do you think I have no ability? I just don’t want to owe favors, and I don’t use my connections very much. Understand?”
Xu Xiaowan was frightened instead. She was not afraid that Yu Xin had connections and resources, but she was afraid of causing trouble for Yang Chen, and she would hate herself for the rest of her life.
Xu Xiaowan: “I personally want to resign. According to the law, the company must agree. What’s the point of you doing these things?”
Yu Xin: “Haha… Are you scared? It’s right to be scared. Take down the order obediently, and I’ll give you a raise when you come back. Don’t you think 8,000 a month is too little? I’ll raise it to 20,000 a month, as long as you take down the order. Okay?”
Xu Xiaowan: “I have already said very clearly that I want to resign, whether you allow it or not, I am determined to leave. Don’t think I have no professional ethics, because you are the ones who have no ethics first. I won’t say more; you can talk to Gao Yun.”
Xu Xiaowan has been so tough for the first time in her life. After saying these words, she felt a sense of relief in her heart and even felt a little proud of herself.
However, she also knew clearly that these feelings were not due to her personal ability but due to the confidence Yang Chen gave her.
Gao Yun took the phone out to answer, wanting to say some things that Xu Xiaowan couldn’t hear.
After a while, Zhang Lin sent a message to Xu Xiaowan.
”Miss Xu, why haven’t you come yet? I’m already getting impatient. I’ll give you ten minutes. If you don’t come over again, I’ll directly give the order that should be given to your company to other companies. Even if your boss brings you to beg me, it will be useless.”
Xu Xiaowan angrily replied to Zhang Lin.
”If you are impatient, call your mother to accompany you. I am not your mother; what’s the use of sending it to me? Do you really think we lack your Michelin orders? It’s just the icing on the cake. We have stable customers to ensure the company’s survival. After saying a few nice words, you really take yourself seriously; it’s so ridiculous. Besides, our boss has a lot of connections; you dare to cancel the order to us and see; he will definitely take care of you. Do you think your brother-in-law is the factory director, and you can do whatever you want? If our boss is angry, he will take care of your brother-in-law together.”
When Zhang Lin saw this message, he immediately felt a surge of energy and blood and almost fell down.
After stabilizing his mind, Zhang Lin immediately called Yu Xin.
Yu Xin: “Hello, Manager Zhang, good evening.”
Zhang Lin: “Good your mother! That salesperson under you is too deceiving. I just wanted her to come and talk to me about the contract details. If there is no problem, I will sign the order for you. She actually scolded me and said that your connections are bright, and you can destroy me and my brother-in-law together. Why are you so awesome that you don’t directly ask Michelin headquarters for orders; why do you let the salesperson come to beg me? You take care of me and my brother-in-law and show me!”
Yu Xin: “Where did Manager Zhang say this? I am sitting at home, and the pot is coming from the sky [I’m being blamed for something I didn’t do].
Canceling Tang Pavilion’s Rating—What’s Wrong with a Ride-Hailing Driver Having Some Money? (5)
come on.”
Zhang Lin: “That salesperson of yours, the one named Xu Xiaowan, she sent a message scolding my mother and said that you can use your resources to destroy me and my brother-in-law.”
Yu Xin: “Damn! This is not what I meant, Manager Zhang; don’t misunderstand. Xu Xiaowan was fooled by her college classmate and is determined to resign. I am still worried now.”
Zhang Lin: “The owner of Tang Pavilion, right?”
Yu Xin: “Yes! Gao Yun said that he is indeed the owner of Tang Pavilion. It’s the first time I’ve seen a restaurant owner so arrogant. So what if it’s a Michelin three-star restaurant? Isn’t it still a restaurant? If he dares to jump again, Manager Zhang, please ask your brother-in-law to contact the headquarters and cancel Tang Pavilion’s rating and see if he dares to be so arrogant.”
Zhang Lin: “Hehe… I know this in my heart, and I will definitely ask my brother-in-law to take action when necessary. The premise is that you didn’t say those words; otherwise, I would definitely not give you the order.”
Since Xu Xiaowan is determined to leave, Yu Xin will not force it, but before leaving, she has to make some contributions to the company, that is, to attract all of Zhang Lin’s anger.
Yu Xin: “Manager Zhang, I think the initiator of this matter is actually the owner of Tang Pavilion. Why do I say this? Because you have also seen Xu Xiaowan’s character; she is a very calm and introverted girl. This kind of girl doesn’t know how to resist very much and is generally submissive. If she hadn’t met the owner of Tang Pavilion, would she dare to do this? To put it bluntly, the owner of Tang Pavilion gave her confidence, so she dared to jump so much. As long as Tang Pavilion is no longer a Michelin three-star restaurant, can their boss still be proud? If their boss can’t be proud, will Xu Xiaowan dare to be so tough? Therefore, canceling Tang Pavilion’s Michelin rating is the only way to solve all problems. Does Manager Zhang think so?”
Zhang Lin: “Now that you say that, it seems that this is indeed the case. When we were in the private room, Xu Xiaowan was not on the road, but she didn’t dare to confront me. But as soon as the owner of Tang Pavilion appeared, she became tough. This is easy to handle; I will call my brother-in-law now. The chairman of Michelin Group will come to Long Country [China] tomorrow, and my brother-in-law will definitely come to see him. Then let my brother-in-law ask him to help cancel Tang Pavilion’s rating.”
The two laughed at the same time, and the conspiracy reached an agreement.
……
At this time, at Yang Chen’s home.
Yang Chen and Zhuo Wenjun were shooting each other with water guns in the bathroom, and both of them were already soaked.
”How is it? Isn’t this much more interesting than falling into the river?” Yang Chen teased.
Zhuo Wenjun was playing crazy; her cheeks were flushed, and she nodded excitedly and replied: “It is indeed much more interesting than falling into the river. Hee hee…”
Yang Chen: “It’s getting late; take a shower and change your clothes; wash and dry the clothes on your body, so it won’t delay you from wearing them when you go home later.”
Zhuo Wenjun nodded and then pushed Yang Chen weakly.
”Then you go out first. I want to take a shower,” Zhuo Wenjun said softly.
She asked Yang Chen to go out, but she didn’t use any force at all.
Could Yang Chen not understand such an obvious hint?
Yang Chen: “Your hair is all wet; you have to wash it too. I’d better stay and help you; otherwise, you won’t be able to finish washing for an hour. That will delay you from going home.”
Zhuo Wenjun: “Is that… okay…?”
Yang Chen: “What’s wrong with that?”
Zhuo Wenjun: “Then… don’t touch me.”
Yang Chen: “No problem, I won’t touch you.”
Zhuo Wenjun: “Okay then. Hmm? Why do I feel like there’s something else in your words?”
Yang Chen: “No, I promise not to touch you.”
Zhuo Wenjun lowered her head and nodded lightly and said, “Okay then. You help me wash it.”
