When I returned to the company after handling Hu Ming's matter, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon.
Wu Yangang finished discussing the work with Su Tong and others. Seeing me coming back, Wu Yan immediately came over and asked me in a low voice, "What did you do to Hu Ming?"
I knew that Wu Yan was afraid that I would cause trouble if I overdid things, so she smiled at Wu Yan.
"Don't worry, I just asked someone to cut off one of his fingers, and nothing will happen. However, this kid is very frightened, and he will definitely not dare to do tricks again in the future."
Wu Yan finally felt relieved after hearing what I said.
"Are you going to have anything to do after get off work soon? If not, can you drive and help me deliver some things to Xinxin?"
I was a little surprised.
Based on Wu Yan's personality, such a small thing as sending something to Chen Xin shouldn't bother me again.
I guessed that Wu Yan must have something else to do, so I nodded and agreed.
"No problem at all!"
I called Su Tong, who was still in the office, and then drove Wu Yan home.
I originally thought that Wu Yan had other things to tell me, but it was just inconvenient to do it in the company. But I didn't expect that Wu Yan really just asked me to help her deliver things to her sister-in-law.
After delivering the things, I saw that Wu Yan never mentioned anything else, so I sent Wu Yan back to the rental house and prepared to leave.
Wu Yan stopped me at this time.
"Assistant Chen, come and have dinner at my place tonight!"
"You have helped me so much, and I don't even know how to repay you. Letting you taste my craftsmanship tonight is a little bit of my appreciation."
Hearing what Wu Yan said, I smiled at her.
"You don't need to say anything in return. I help you so that you can work better for the company and Mr. Su.
Last night, Mr. Su gave me 10% of the company's shares. Now I am also a shareholder of the company.
So, these are what I should do. "
Wu Yan was also very happy for me when she heard that Su Tong gave me 10% of the company's shares.
"Okay, then I won't say such things in the future. But you must eat this meal!"
Wu Yan said, happily picking up her little faded satchel.
"Let's go buy groceries first."
I knew I couldn't refuse this meal, so I parked the car next to the rental house and went shopping with Wu Yan.
There is a vegetable market in the urban village where Wu Yan rents. It's just that it's already dark now, and most of the stalls in the vegetable market have been closed. Wu Yan could only take me to a supermarket nearby.
I saw Wu Yan buying chicken, duck, fish, and more than eighty pounds of prawns, so I quickly stopped her.
"Sister Wu, it's just the two of us having dinner tonight. You don't need to buy so many vegetables."
Although Wu Yan's current salary has been raised to 15,000, she has only raised her salary after all, and has never paid it once. I guess she still doesn't have much money on hand.
Wu Yan showed me a gentle smile.
"Don't worry, Mr. Su knows that I'm tight on money, so he asked the finance department to advance my salary for two months. I can still afford a few shrimps."
When I heard what Wu Yan said, I stopped stopping him.
Wu Yan asked me again what kind of wine I would like to drink.
I usually drive and don't drink much. But today, I also wanted to drink some wine.
First, it was to celebrate Wu Yan.
Wu Yan finally solved the problem of her sister-in-law living in school. She herself was reused by the company, promoted and received a salary increase. For Wu Yan, it can be regarded as three blessings.
Because of this, I myself received 5 million worth of shares in the company.
For me, this is also a leap in my life.
Starting today, I, Chen Lin, have officially crossed over from the bottom of the city with a monthly salary of several thousand to the middle class in Chengdu.
When I came to Chengdu two years ago, I never dreamed that one day I would earn five million.
So, for me, today is also a big day to celebrate.
So I bought two bottles of red wine.
Returning to Wu Yan's small rental house, Wu Yan started to get busy.
Wu Yan's house is very small, and she has to move the stove to the door when cooking.
Although it was very inconvenient, Wu Yan was very happy. I wanted to help Wu Yan, but she refused to let me go. She insisted that I sit in the room and wait for ready-made meals.
When several neighbors saw Wu Yan's fried prawns, they all cast envious glances at her.
A female neighbor also joked.
"Xiaoyan, your shrimp costs 40 to 51 pounds, right? Why are you so willing to do it today?"
The female neighbor said, looked at me in the room, and whispered: "Are you looking for a boyfriend?"
Wu Yan quickly blushed and denied it.
"Sister Liu, please stop talking nonsense. This is my colleague."
Sister Liu looked like "I understand" and looked at me in the room again before turning and leaving.
Wu Yan cooked a table full of dishes and then closed the door.
"Come on, Assistant Chen, try my skills."
Wu Yan had a happy smile on her face and picked me a prawn first. Then she took one for herself.
Looking at the prawns in the bowl, Wu Yan couldn't help but sigh.
"Assistant Chen, I'm not afraid of your jokes. In my thirty-year life, this is the first time I've bought such expensive prawns. I used to see such expensive prawns in the supermarket and I didn't even dare to touch them."
As Wu Yan said this, she started peeling the shrimps.
"Without you, I might always be the poor guy who doesn't even dare to touch a prawn."
As she spoke, Wu Yan put the peeled shrimp in her hand into my bowl.
"Assistant Chen, do you know? President Su told me today that she has notified the finance department to raise my salary from 11,000 to 15,000.
Moreover, she also gave me company shares worth 1.5 million. "
When Wu Yan said this, her voice began to choke and tears filled her eyes.
It can be seen how much joy this incident brought her.
I quickly pulled out a tissue and handed it over.
"This is a good thing! Sister Wu, why are you still crying?"
Wu Yan felt a little embarrassed, took my tissue and quickly wiped away her tears, and began to softly describe her feelings to me.
"Since my man passed away five years ago, do you know how I have been living my life?
I work my butt off every day. Others rest eight days a month, but I dare not take a day off. Others get off work on time at five o'clock, but I have to get off work until after ten o'clock in the evening every day.
But even so, the money I earn every month is still just enough to cover my expenses.
I worked my butt off until the end of the year, but couldn't save a penny.
I worry every day that if I fall ill and cannot get up one day, no one will be able to support the elderly and children at home.
This feeling of working hard but still not being able to save money is really powerless. I feel as if I am wandering on the edge of a cliff every day, and if I am not careful, I will fall into the abyss. "
When Wu Yan said this, her voice began to choke again.
I have also had an experience like Wu Yan's, and I have a deep understanding of Wu Yan's feelings.
Seeing Wu Yan's excited voice choked with sobs, I gently patted her back and comforted her softly.
"Are you okay now? Your monthly salary is 15,000 yuan. Even if you spend an extra 2,000 yuan, you can still save 7,000 yuan a month.
Moreover, I heard from Mr. Su that when several new stores of the company open, you will probably be transferred to take charge.
By then, your salary should still have increased. "
After listening to my words, Wu Yan finally showed a smile that showed the joy of suffering.
