Mr. Yan was in a dilemma after receiving the instruction. As one of the few people who knew He Xiaoyu’s identity, he knew how difficult it was to please that lady. He also knew that she was interested in Li Mu.

When encountering this kind of thing, the best way was to feign ignorance and not to get involved in it. However, he absolutely couldn’t do this now, because he dared not defy the orders of the upper management

The instruction from the upper manager was obviously to forcibly separate the two. Of course, they could do whatever they wanted. However, the key point was that he would be the bad guy. Weren’t they purposely trying to make things difficult for him?

After pondering for a long moment, Mr. Yan suddenly figured out a perfect plan.

Picking up the phone, he dialed Cheng Feng’s number, and said, “Hi, is that Mr. Cheng? This is Mr. Yan!”

“Hello, Mr. Yan. I’m Cheng Feng. Is there anything I can help you with?”

“Ah, it’s nothing big. I just want to ask how the situation is on your side?”

“Everything is okay. We went to submit the bid yesterday and are currently waiting for news at the hotel!”

“Okay, I got it. What about Mr. Li? Is he next to you?

“Mr. Li has already gone back because he had some urgent matters to deal with!”

“Ah yes, he is back! Yes, I asked him to come back. Then, what about Xiaoyu?”

“She went to stay at her classmate’s house, so she is not in the hotel right now!”

“This d*mn couple! Mr. Yan cursed silently in his heart, “Where did they go and fool around? How can they leave a complete novice at the hotel and disappear just like that?”

What was even more infuriating was that when Li Mu reported the situation to him yesterday, he didn’t mention anything about it at all. He thought that everyone was waiting together at the hotel. However, unexpectedly, the two of them had unknowingly sneaked out.

Forget it. Mr. Yan quickly returned to the topic and said kindly, “Mr. Cheng, I just checked the personnel structure and found that the sales organizational structure is seriously inadequate. Therefore, I would like to discuss this issue with you. I plan to transfer a few people from the consulting department to the sales department, so I would like to know what you think about this.”

“I don’t have any opinions about it. Thank you for your support. Just proceed according to your plan!” Cheng Feng readily agreed. There was no reason for him to disagree because this was something that will benefit him.

Cheng Feng didn’t care whether Mr. Yan would plant a mole in his department. After all, his purpose of coming to work at the Dongyang Group was not really to make an achievement in his career.

He came here for love. If love didn’t happen, then Cheng Feng would leave the Dongyang Group very soon. He still had a family business waiting for him to take over.

"Alright, that’s settled then. I’ll transfer the people to the sales department in the name of secondment first, and set a trial period for everyone. Mr. Cheng, you can take this opportunity to observe them carefully. If you are satisfied with their work performance, then I’ll officially transfer them to the sales department.”

Mr. Yan had shown Cheng Feng a great deal of respect and the latter gladly agreed.

Next, Mr. Yan suggested a few candidates, including He Xiaoyu.

After ending the call with Cheng Feng, he then called Li Mu.

Of course, he had to communicate with Li Mu first before transferring his staff to another department. Mr. Yan didn’t want to affect the friendship between him and Li Mu because of this matter.

To be honest, Mr. Yan didn’t want Li Mu and He Xiaoyu to get too close. Li Mu is a married man and should keep a good distance from his female colleagues.

Furthermore, with He Xiaoyu’s family background, even if Li Mu was single, Mr. Yan felt that it would be difficult for them to have a happy ending together.

The reason was very simple. They didn’t have the same social standing. It was impossible for an ordinary person to marry the president’s daughter!

From the personnel arrangement this time, it was not difficult for him to guess it.

Cheng Feng was handsome and talented, and his behavioral manners were also extraordinary. The various actions of the upper management had clearly shown that Cheng Feng was the son-in-law approved by Mr. He.

Although Mr. Yan didn’t know about Cheng Feng’s background, he felt that Cheng Feng was several levels higher than Li Mu from his academic background and his behavior manners.

How should he describe Cheng Feng? He should use the word “aristocratic” on Cheng Feng. Cheng Feng had the feeling of a natural-born superior and there was a condescending aura emitting from his entire body.

Judging from the current situation, if Li Mu and He Xiaoyu continued to maintain an ambiguous relationship, it might affect his future. Mr. Yan intended to help his good brother by taking this opportunity to separate the two of them.

“Li Mu, where are you?”

“Waiting for news at the hotel. Boss Yan, what’s the matter?”

“Stop talking first and let me listen for a while.”

Li Mu listened carefully and finally cursed, “You good! Tell me honestly, where are you now? Does your hotel ring the bell at a fixed time?”

Li Mu laughed loudly and replied unconcernedly, “Boss Yan, your ears are so good. You can even hear that. I’m currently praying to the Buddha in Fengkai, asking the Buddha to bless our company to win the bid.”

“Stop bullsh*tting me. By the way, is Xiaoyu with you?”

“No, she is currently stationed at the hotel!”

“If you continue to lie to me, I’ll smash the phone on the ground. Is Xiaoyu with you?”

“Haha, she is having her fortune read at the moment. Boss Yan, are you looking for her?”

“Then, don’t interrupt her. I’ll tell you about something first!” Mr. Yan said grumpily.

“Okay, Boss Yan, please continue!”

Mr. Yan told Li Mu all his plans. Li Mu was a little puzzled after hearing it and couldn’t help asking, “Boss Yan, why did you suddenly have this idea?”

"Please don't misunderstand me, bro. This is not my idea, but the decision of the upper management of the company. They plan to use our department as a pilot."

“What is their purpose for doing this?”

“This is because the upper management of the company thinks that our current consulting and sales system has a very big problem. All of our consultants are stationed at the headquarters, and they don’t often get in touch with the users. Therefore, they cannot understand the users’ thoughts and needs.”

“Although the local sales consultants often get in touch with the customers, most of them have mediocre technical skills and are inclined to business. Thus, they cannot understand the users’ thinking and needs very well. As a result, we will not only lose a lot of project opportunities but also find it difficult to transform the users’ needs into business contracts.”

Li Mu hummed assent and strongly agreed with what he said. There was truly this problem in the company. What Mr. Yan said was indeed an obstacle to the business growth.

Mr. Yan must be in a very difficult position for having to use the business organizational structure to make up lies.

Seeing that Li Mu didn't refute, Mr. Yan continued to say, "So the company intends to reform the consulting and sales system and gradually transform consultants to sales consultants. In this way, it will not only narrow the distance with the users, but also understand their needs. This was a way to kill two birds with one stone which will completely solve the shortcomings of the current system.”

“I got it!” Li Mu replied, “So, our business department is the first batch of pilot units?"

“Yes, the company believes that the mobile internet is the future development direction in this industry. Its future is limitless. Therefore. the company decided to use our business department as a pilot.”

“Okay, I’ve no opinion about it. I’ll follow the company’s arrangement!” Li Mu replied candidly.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Mr. Yan said to Li Mu, “Li Mu, in order not to affect the implementation, the company requires that the pilot project should be kept confidential. So, you just need to be clear of the project and don’t tell the others. I plan to transfer some consultants from your department to Mr. Cheng in the name of secondment. After a period of observation, he will make the final decision.”

“Okay, I understand. Boss Yan, you can rest assured that. I know the advantages and disadvantages. I’ll definitely fully cooperate with the company’s reforms!”

“There is one more thing. I plan to list Xiaoyu as one of the candidates for the pilot project. Do you have any opinions on this?”

“That’s great. I certainly have no objection at all. Even if you don’t mention her, I still plan to recommend her. Hurry up and take that girl away from me so that she won’t bother me every day!”

Hearing Li Mu’s answer, Mr. Yan was completely relieved. This showed that he knew the line between them. Then this matter was easy to deal with. He only needed to get He Xiaoyu’s consent now.

This was the only thing he can do. As for how the relationship between Cheng Feng and Xiaoyu will develop, it was none of his business. Whether it was successful or not, it was a matter between the two of them. It had nothing to do with him at all.

“Has Xiaoyu finished her fortune-telling? I would like to talk to her.”

“Wait a moment, Boss Yan. I’ll go find her!”

Mr. Yan waited for a long while before he heard He Xiaoyu asked impatiently, “What’s the matter?”

“Have you finished your fortune-telling? What did the fortune teller say?”

“That’s a monk!”

“What did the monk say?”

“I’m not telling you. If I say it out, it won’t work anymore. Tell me quickly, why are you looking for me?”

“Oh, it’s like that. Mr. Cheng has just taken office and has no knowledge of the product line of the business department and the past projects. I intend to temporarily transfer you to the sales department, so that he can familiarize himself with the department's business as soon as possible. Do you think it’s okay for you?”

“Aright, I’ll guide him when I have the time. Is that all?”

“Well, that’s all.”

“Alright, I got it. Bye!”

Before Mr. Yan could respond, the person on the other end of the line had already ended the call. Mr. Yan was stunned for a moment and suddenly had the urge to curse.

He Xiaoyu was really rude. She made him feel that he was not talking to his subordinate, but reporting to his superior.

After thinking about it, he couldn’t help but smile. There was nothing wrong with it. The true identity she hid from everyone was indeed the boss of the company.

He Xiaoyu was really anxious. She wanted to eavesdrop on Lin Wan’s destiny just now, but she was being forcibly dragged out by Li Mu. This made her extremely displeased and vented her anger on Mr. Yan.

After ending the call, He Xiaoyu hurried back to the monastery. However, Lin Wan had already finished her fortune-telling and was about to walk out holding her husband’s arm.

“What did the monk say?” He Xiaoyu blurted out what was on her mind.

The monk, who was sitting at a side, rolled his eyes upon hearing her question.

“Don’t worry, my life is not as good as yours. Are you satisfied?” Lin Wan replied in a peculiar tone.

He Xiaoyu said nothing and left with them contentedly.

After arriving at Fengkai, she and Lin Wan had reached a compromise. He Xiaoyu would stop making trouble out of nothing, and Lin Wan would not deliberately pick on her anymore. To put it simply, they each had fun on their own and treated each other as invisible.

The bid evaluation result came out two days later. The Dongyang Group won the bid with the highest score, ranking first in the business aspect and second in the technical aspect.

After receiving the news, the business department immediately announced the good news in the company chat group. The congratulation and commendation email from the headquarters had also been sent to all the business departments.

Normally, for such a big project, the headquarters usually would not make a big deal out of it. However, the person in charge of the project was He Xiaoyu. Therefore, this could be easily understood by everyone!

Li Mu and He Xiaoyu were also extremely thrilled. Therefore, they took this opportunity to reward themselves with a week off and visited all the places of interest near Zhouzheng.

A week later, Li Mu returned to work. Although he was already mentally prepared, when he walked into the office, he still felt something was wrong.

The office, which was originally seated full of people, was now half empty. Mr. Yan was quite ruthless at work. Not only did he transfer the people, but he also moved the working desks, chairs, and partitions, which made the entire office seemed particularly empty.
