Chapter 2149: Chapter 2150: The Original Spouse Who Left with Nothing 69
Lin Yu remembered having dinner with an old classmate the other day. They mentioned how popular Xie Zhen’s investment bank was, saying they submitted a resume but never even got a call for an interview.
Lin Yu knew this old classmate; although their ability wasn’t great, it wasn’t bad either, and they had plenty of experience. Applying for a standard position shouldn’t have been an issue, but who would’ve thought they wouldn’t even pass for a basic role.
Lin Yu took a deep breath. If he wanted to go there, the best way was through an insider recommendation, but who could he ask for an internal referral from.
The Han Family? Lin Yu quickly dismissed the idea, for a simple reason: the Han and Xie families don’t get along. The Han family wouldn’t give an internal referral, and even if they did, Xie Zhen wouldn’t agree.
As for looking for others, after considering all possibilities, Lin Yu helplessly realized that those he knew either wanted to work there themselves or didn’t have the influence to provide a recommendation.
As for the bigshots he had exchanged contact information with before, Lin Yu gave up on asking them for help. They only acknowledged him because he was the Han family’s son-in-law; now that they knew his situation, they had long blacklisted his contacts.
Ah, it’s so hard. Wait, didn’t that girl resign? How is it that she’s leaving a good job? And it’s quite rushed. Didn’t she say earlier that Friday was her last workday? This is too hurried, which only points to one thing: she has found a new job, otherwise, how else to explain it.
Lin Yu suddenly stood up, "I’m such an idiot. How didn’t I think of that? She’s Zhang Yu’s short-term disciple, and Zhang Yu and Xie Zhen have a good relationship. She probably won’t work again but could recommend someone."
Lin Yu knew Zhang Yu cherished her reputation; she wouldn’t give a recommendation unless someone had some competence.
Ahhh, Lin Yu was really frustrated. How could he have forgotten about Zhang Yu? Given their connection, Xie Zhen would definitely lower his requirements a bit.
Well, Lin Yu thought for a long time about whether he should swallow his pride to ask Zhang Yu. Pride isn’t that important to him, as long as he can achieve his goal. If there isn’t something called pride, then there isn’t.
Just worried that even if he swallowed his pride, Zhang Yu might still not give him any face, which would be a bit difficult.
After thinking it over, Lin Yu decided to ask the girl first. If she was indeed going to Xie Zhen’s company, then he would swallow his pride and ask Zhang Yu for help.
The girl knocked and entered Lin Yu’s office, "Manager Lin, you called for me." Although she harbored much dissatisfaction with him in her heart, even saying in front of coworkers that he was a scumbag, they were still in the company.
Looking at the impatient girl standing in front of him, Lin Yu couldn’t help but feel amused, "Didn’t you just say in front of a crowd that I’m a scumbag?"
Huh? The girl had been wondering why Lin Yu called her since he didn’t have a project right now and she had already resigned, leaving no work connection. Why would he call her?
Upon hearing this, she understood. This guy must have heard and now his petty side was rearing its head, "Yeah, in your personal life you really are a scumbag."
"You probably think dividing things with Sister Zhang in the divorce makes you a good person."
"I, I didn’t..." Seeing the agitated girl, Lin Yu gestured for her to calm down, "I didn’t deny what I did, I just heard you say you resigned."
The girl acknowledged, "Yeah, I resigned, so if you want to retaliate against me, I’m really not worried, not afraid."
She wasn’t afraid even if marks against her were noted in her file because the next company knew about these grudges.
"Are you going to Xie Zhen’s company?" Lin Yu suddenly brought up.
The girl hadn’t expected Lin Yu to know about her next job, was briefly stunned, then quickly responded, "It’s my personal business."
There you go, Lin Yu laughed. This girl didn’t realize her reaction actually betrayed her, "I got it, was it Zhang Yu’s recommendation?"
The girl knew her earlier reaction had already betrayed her, "Yes, I’m going to Xie Zhen’s investment bank."
"They need people there. There’s no future for me here, following those leaders who only know how to boast and steal credits. There’s no future for me staying here."
"And I don’t need an internal recommendation. I just submitted my resume." The girl knew Zhang Yu must have recommended her on Xie Zhen’s side; otherwise, how come others from prestigious schools with better job records and achievements didn’t get hired.
But she would never admit this. The reason Lin Yu was asking must not be because he cared about her future. Probably, if she guessed right, he wanted a job change himself, maybe to work at the currently hot Xie Zhen’s investment bank.
The girl didn’t say anything, but in her heart, she cursed him to death. Back then, he didn’t care about Sister Zhang’s reputation, letting her endure all kinds of gossip in the company, and now he wants her help.
"Manager Lin, I know what you’re thinking, you want to say Sister Zhang and President Xie have a good relationship, and you want to go her way. Really, people say you’re thick-skinned, I didn’t know how much until now. But I didn’t expect, you could be this shameless."
"Really so shameless, taking away Sister Zhang’s opportunity for advancement, stealing Sister Zhang’s credits, and wanting Sister Zhang to leave bare-handed. If she hadn’t reacted quickly, you would’ve made off with everything: people, money, fame."
"The situation you’re in now, you brought it all on yourself." The girl didn’t want to stay any longer, or else seeing Lin Yu’s face, she’d really want to rush up and give him a few punches.
Disregarding Lin Yu’s reaction, she got up and left, and when she reached the door, she flipped him the bird, with both hands.
Lin Yu was dumbfounded by the girl’s actions. What was going on, a girl, and a subordinate no less, making such a gesture, "You, how could you do such a thing."
"That’s your position in my heart."
"Don’t ever give me a chance, because when I get the chance, I’ll destroy you."
The girl sneered at Lin Yu, "Don’t even dream of going to Xie Zhen’s place."
"You probably don’t know, do you? You’re on the blacklist of many investment banks. If I were you, I’d just settle with staying here."
"While you haven’t left, earn a bit more retirement pension, because once you leave here, where else can you go?"
"By the way, have you thought about it? You wanted Sister Zhang to leave barehanded, but now after your divorce, you’re the one leaving empty-handed."
"What goes around comes around, Heaven isn’t going to let you off."
"Truly pathetic, chasing fame and fortune, only to have Han Xue walk away with your hard-earned money. Tsk tsk tsk, this shows that if you can’t fit into a circle, don’t always try to, or you’ll meet a bitter end."
Knowing these words were sure to enrage Lin Yu, the girl quickly shut the door, ignoring the person inside.
She felt immensely relieved now, thankful that the company had money and spared no expense during the renovation. Otherwise, the scene of someone losing it would surely get out, leaving a certain someone without face or reputation.
