He hadn’t expected things to go so smoothly, just like… what was that word?
As if aided by the heavens!
“They announced withdrawal?” Shen Wan raised an eyebrow; this wasn’t Shen Ru’s style. “Do you know the reason?”
“I’m not sure for now.”
Shen Wan had a nagging sense that something was wrong, but she couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was.
It was like two tigers simultaneously chasing a gazelle, starting from the same line, with nearly equal physical conditions. They were just about to make their final pounce for a hearty dinner, but one of the tigers suddenly turned and withdrew?
With a meal ready for the taking, Shen Wan wondered why the other party had suddenly halted and backed off. However, her top priority was to satisfy her hunger. She urged, “Let’s quickly sign the contract. Once everything settles down, even if they decide to compete again, they won’t stand a chance.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve already arranged it.”
A week later, Mingya officially changed hands and became part of Beihai Linchuang Technology Co., Ltd.
During this period, employees resigned one after another, starting from over twenty, dwindling to around a dozen, and in the end, only Choi Yun, Miao Miao, and Ying Bin remained.
The day after the acquisition was completed, “Mingya” officially changed its name to “Hangya” and was ordered to vacate the Guangsha office building. “Hey! Why haven’t you resigned yet?” Miao Miao sat on her desk, her sturdy legs dangling casually, swinging back and forth as she ate rice noodles and chatted with the man in the opposite cubicle.
Sucking the noodles noisily.
Ying Bin had already had breakfast, but hearing that sound made him feel hungry again…
He resisted the urge to swallow saliva and reluctantly looked away. “I won’t resign. I’ll wait for you to fire me. It’s said that this way, unemployment benefits will kick in, and I can receive half a year of compensation.”
“Heh, just for that?” Miao Miao took another slurp, her rough and efficient movements not at all ladylike; she seemed more like a man.
“Yep, just for that!”
“Alright then, what’s your plan after being fired?”
Ying Bin looked around. The once familiar office had completely changed. The workstations were empty, and there was litter everywhere. It seemed as if the dimmed lights were intentionally emphasizing the gloomy and desolate atmosphere.
In such a spacious place, now there was only him and Miao Miao.
Ying Bin felt melancholic and sighed. “If you’re talking about my work plan, I’m thinking of becoming a security guard.”
“Cough, cough, cough…” Miao Miao choked on her noodles, her cheeks turning bright red.
Ying Bin suddenly realized that she was quite fair-skinned; how had he not noticed before?
“You, an advertising guy, want to become a security guard?” Miao Miao stared at him with her small eyes, not concealing her astonishment.
“What’s wrong with that? Being a security guard is great. You just stand there, and your salary rolls in.”
“…Oh.”
“Sss! Why are you making that strange expression?”
“Yeah, I’m making it because I find it strange.”
Ying Bin replied, “…A real man doesn’t argue with women!”
“By the way, why haven’t you resigned? President Shen has left, are you planning to stay here as a decorative secretary? Or…” He squinted, a hint of meaning flashing in his eyes.
Miao Miao looked at him with anticipation.
“Or are you, like me, also hoping to get unemployment benefits?”
Miao Miao did not give him a reply. Indeed, she shouldn’t have expected much from an advertising professional aspiring to be a security guard.
“Is that wrong?”
“Absolutely wrong.”
“Why is that?”
Miao Miao took a sip of soup, set down her lunchbox and disposable wooden chopsticks, and said seriously, “Because I love our company deeply!” “Hahaha…” Ying Bin’s laughter resounded through the room. “Come on, face reality. Mingya has already been acquired, and from now on, it’s only ‘Hangya.’” “Mingya and Hangya are one.”
“What?”
Miao Miao propped her chubby body on the table, then gracefully landed on her feet and extended her hand toward him. “Welcome to join Hangya, Mr. Ying Bin.”
The man looked utterly baffled.
“Come on, shake hands!”
Ying Bin extended his hand dazedly.
Miao Miao grabbed it firmly. “I’m sorry, but your plan to become a security guard will have to be put on hold for now. Stay here and be a good advertising professional.”
With that, she let go of his hand, turned around, and walked away.
“Not…” Ying Bin caught up. “what did you just say? I can’t understand a word you’re saying!”
“Take your time to figure it out!”
The next day, Mingya, no, it should now be called Hangya Advertising Company, officially took over the 18th floor of Yulong Building in CBD Zone 1.
Only then did Ying Bin believe that Miao Miao wasn’t playing tricks on him, and that he wasn’t in a dream!
“Damn it!” Shen Ru had just disembarked from the plane, and before she even left the airport, she received the terrible news that Mingya had already been acquired by Linchuang Technology. She immediately dropped her luggage in frustration..
