this morning.

Lin Ting dressed up specially before leaving the house.

Life has already deprived her of her allowance; it cannot deprive her of her right to pursue beauty.

She wore black trousers, a white shirt under a black wool vest, her long hair tied in a low ponytail, and a beret.

She originally thought that she could just take a car when she went out, and that it wouldn't be too cold.

Unfortunately, it was a cold snap in early spring, so as soon as I opened the door, I persuaded her to go home and put on a short leather jacket.

She was wrapped in a blanket in the car, holding a cup of hot milk tea.

As Zhang Liang drove, he said, "Boss, I've found out about Bai Yu."

Lin Ting was too cold to think and asked directly, "Who is Bai Yu?"

“The leader’s son,” Zhang Liang said. “His situation is easy to find out.”

"Well, let's hear it."

If Feng Hui is the epitome of a spoiled young master, then Bai Yu is the representative of a landlord's foolish son.

He didn't do well in school from a young age and failed to get into junior high school.

Mr. Bai was old enough to serve in the army for two years. When he was discharged and transferred to civilian work, he had already gained some status. Originally, he was to be placed in the government system, but this guy was tricked by some great person and decided to go into business.

Young Master Bai believed that doing business was not about following the crowd; if you followed the path others had taken, you would only end up picking up scraps.

While others chose to source goods from the south and sell them in the north, he took an unconventional approach, sourcing goods from factories in the northeast and taking them to the south... successfully overcoming his first setback.

He also tried buying steel from Shanghai and selling it in Northeast China, and trading milk powder from Northeast China to Inner Mongolia... He never tried buying coal from Datong and selling it in Panzhihua. It wasn't that he didn't have the idea, but he had run out of capital after the previous attempts.

Even Zhang Liang, a man who takes his work very seriously, couldn't stop his shoulders from trembling halfway through his speech.

Lin Ting: "What a talent!"

Now, this talented person is standing right in front of me.

Lin Ting sized him up; judging from his appearance alone, he didn't seem to have any mental issues.

Bai Yu blushed under her gaze and unconsciously took a step back: "What...what are you looking at?"

Lin Ting: "..."

What a sharp question.

That's a difficult question to answer.

Bai's mother had a headache. She pinched her son's arm hard to make him shut up, then smiled and said to Lin, "Hello, Miss Lin, I am Bai Yu's mother. I'm so sorry to have troubled you."

Lin Ting raised the corners of her mouth and shook hands with Bai's mother, saying, "Hello, Auntie."

The moment Bai's mother saw Lin Ting, she was amazed. She thought to herself, "No wonder she's a girl who's seen the world in Beijing and Shanghai. Look at her attire, I've never seen anyone so beautiful."

But she soon felt a little disappointed.

Look at those bright, sparkling eyes; they don't look like they have poor eyesight at all.

There was no separate reception room in the garment factory, but Zhang Liang had his wives, who cooked, tidy up the guardhouse early in the morning to temporarily use it to receive guests.

Bai's mother showed no disgust or discomfort. Sitting on the stool, she flattered the teacher like a parent sending their child to school: "Miss Lin, I won't stand on ceremony with you. I'll just say what I have to say."

Lin Ting smiled at her and made a "please" gesture.

“My uncle wants to take another step forward. Can you help us get this kid back on the right track? If anything happens in the future, we're all family, so we can talk things over.”

Bai's mother was indeed straightforward, so much so that Lin Ting wanted to cover her mouth.

Is it okay to say these things directly?

Mr. Bai is able to get to his current position because he has connections at the United Nations!

Lin Ting, holding her teacup, smiled and said, "Actually, I disagreed with this when Uncle Fang told me about it yesterday, mainly because I didn't dare—I've only gotten to where I am today by luck, how could I dare to be a teacher and mislead students? But..."

“I spoke with my master, and he said that if needed, Brother Bai could go to Shanghai.”

Lin Ting stared intently at Bai's mother, not missing a single change in her expression.

Bai's mother was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "Your uncle and I don't want him to go too far. He... I can make a mistake if I don't even look at him for a second. If he goes out, he'll cause trouble."

Her expression was sincere, and her refusal was quite decisive.

Lin Ting raised an eyebrow slightly.

She always felt that the other party wanted to use her as a stepping stone to establish a connection with the Chiang family.

Unexpectedly, they really were after me.

If it were the former, she wouldn't dare to directly agree to any benefits they offered her.

But the latter...

Lin Ting looked at Bai Yu, who was standing obediently behind Bai's mother, and nodded: "If that's what you say, then I don't have any major problems. But I have to tell you in advance that I'm just starting out here, and the work is very hard. Brother Bai will definitely be very tired working for me."

Mother Bai nodded repeatedly: "It's good to be a little tired, it's good to be a little tired!"

When he's a little tired, he doesn't have the energy to think about anything else, and then he ends up wasting money.

Lin Ting then said, "It's really not suitable for Brother Bai to go to the textile factory. Firstly, I haven't taken over there yet, and everything is still pending. Secondly, we don't need any more people here. I can't exactly have him drive a truck to deliver goods, can I?"

Mrs. Bai listened attentively, nodding slightly from time to time. After Lin finished listening, she reiterated her stance: "To be honest, your uncle and I know absolutely nothing about doing business, girl. Your aunt trusts you; you can make the arrangements yourself!"

Lin Ting nodded slowly: "Then how about this, let Brother Bai work as my secretary for now, what do you think?"

Bai's mother's eyes lit up: "That would be the best! I'll follow you and see how doing business really works. Don't just do whatever comes to mind!" As she finished speaking, she couldn't help but glare at Bai Yu again.

Bai Yu: "...?"

Why are you glaring at him again?

He didn't say a word!

Seeing his simple-minded look, Lin Ting turned to Zhang Liang and said, "Brother Liang, why don't you take him to learn about our company first?"

Zhang Liang responded and gestured for Bai Yu to enter.

Bai Yu kept his father's teachings in mind and obediently followed the arrangements.

After closing the door, Lin Ting took a sip of tea before saying to Bai's mother, "Auntie, Uncle Fang has known me for quite a while, so he knows what kind of temper I have. I prefer to speak my mind directly, so please forgive me if I offend you in any way in the future."

Unlike Bai Yu, Bai's mother was not a simpleton. She blinked and understood.

The little girl was unhappy that they were trying to manipulate her in a roundabout way.

Feeling somewhat embarrassed that her thoughts had been seen through, Bai's mother was a little embarrassed.

She rubbed her hands together and nodded: "Yes, yes, that's right. From now on... from now on we'll tell you directly about anything, and you can do the same. If Xiaoyu has any problems, just tell me directly."

Communicating with her wasn't difficult, and she seemed reasonable enough, so Lin Ting nodded: "Okay."

That means I've accepted this fool.

Bai's mother was overjoyed and insisted on taking Lin Ting to dinner.

“You absolutely have to go, you absolutely have to go! Your uncle wanted to come in person, but you know his job isn’t really suitable, it’s easy for people to overthink things. Let’s not worry about him. Next time you come over for dinner, we’re family now, no one can say anything.”

"Ting'er, are you cold? Xiao Fang, drive to the store, I'll buy Ting'er a coat."

"What do you mean you don't need it? It's so cold today. Don't be so careless when you're young, or you'll get sick when you're old..."
