Chapter 238 The Unfathomable Person
"Hey, where are you sitting?" That one sentence ruined the aesthetic! Ting Nan remained silent.
The woman continued, "You're speechless. Where's Mr. Li? What's he busy with this time?"
"General Manager Li?" Does that refer to Senior Brother Li Yang? Are you looking for him? The tone is so familiar? Ting Nan couldn't help but speculate, mentally writing a little essay, hoping it wasn't him!
The woman walked straight to Li Yang's office, didn't knock, and slipped inside. Then... Ting Nan kept watching. The chubby chef from the cafeteria came out, Uncle Pan from the purchasing department came out, Chef Bao from the publicity department came out, the accountant and the cashier came out, and then the door closed again. Ting Nan's little essay got longer and longer.
Ting Nan stood up abruptly, and her uncles and brothers who came out greeted her: "Master Qingling, you've arrived."
"Qingling, would you like some afternoon snacks later?"
"Master Qingling, come to our office later to reconcile the accounts."
Even after being away for several months, everyone was still very enthusiastic, listening to Nan answer questions one by one, while their eyes were fixed on the office door out of the corner of their eye.
"Uncle Pan, who is that woman who went in?" Ting Nan tried to ask Uncle Pan, who was walking behind her.
"She's a clueless person, ignore her, I'm going to check the inventory."
"Oh, oh, okay, you're busy!" How could I ignore her? She's been inside for half an hour already, and Sister-in-law Xu is family.
Ting Nan walked over—cough, cough, cough—cleared her throat heavily, and then knocked on the door.
"Please come in!"
"Brother!"
"Oh, Master Qingling, you're here?" Li Yang was writing something with his head down when he heard the familiar voice and quickly looked up, quite surprised. "Master Qingling, how long have you been here? The martial arts school has been busy with its annual review these past few days, and I haven't even noticed you." At the martial arts school, Li Yang always called Ting Nan "Master Qingling".
"Senior brother, it's alright. I know you're busy. Waiting a while won't hurt." From Nan's words, I realized that I had seen everything I needed to see after being here for a while.
Li Yang remained unmoved, but the woman spoke up: "Listen to this, Senior Brother, what kind of behavior is this?"
Uh, what's going on? "I've always called it that, is there a problem?" Nanmeng asked.
"Of course there's a problem. You should call him 'General Manager Li,' you know? That's more formal and sophisticated. That's how big companies address people these days. 'Senior Brother' is fine at home. Also, you're a martial arts instructor? How old-fashioned! As a woman, you should at least dress up a bit. Look at this outfit, and where's your figure?" After saying that, she looked Song Tingnan up and down.
"Senior brother, she is..."
"Oh, the martial arts gym was recruiting management staff a while ago, and she came to us herself, Yan Lili." Li Yang said casually.
"Oh my, Mr. Li, it sounds so nice when you call me by my name. From now on, just call me 'Lily,' and I won't call you 'Senior Brother' anymore. We're not old-fashioned." The aroma of tea filled the air.
"Master... Li..." Ting Nan hesitated. Was this a improper form of address?
“Master Qingling, don’t listen to her. Our martial arts school should behave like one; that kind of thing isn’t suitable. You’re doing just fine the way you are.” Li Yang didn’t mince words. “Did you need something from me?”
"There's something I need to take care of... but it's not urgent." There's no way to go into details here.
"Just sit here and wait for me. We'll go back together. Your sister-in-law misses you. We'll have dinner at home later."
"Okay, I miss my sister-in-law too, I miss her toothpick beef." The senior brother took the initiative to mention his sister-in-law and even let her stay in the office, which put Ting Nan at ease.
"Oh dear, Mr. Li, how can we talk business with her here?"
Yan Lili swayed her voluptuous figure shyly, but unfortunately, it was all for naught. Li Yang didn't even look up, staring at the form in his hand. It seemed that he had been in this state for the past half hour.
Li Yang said with slight displeasure, "Yan Lili, I'm reiterating once again that our Gao Family Martial Arts School will not hire you. Your management style is not suitable for us. Please don't come looking for me again."
"Mr. Li, don't be so fierce. I'm just doing this for your own good. You're the one who calls the shots at this martial arts school, and I'm just trying to help you. You need to keep up with the times and adopt modern management. Some outdated ideas need to be discarded, and things need to be unified..." Yan Lili continued her nagging, and it seemed Li Yang had dealt with her quite a bit. But 'a good man doesn't argue with a woman,' and besides, he didn't dare get too close to her delicate manner! He could only ignore her, but this woman was incredibly shameless.
