Vol. 1 - Ch. 25 - Security

Before having a stable income, Li Han didn't plan on informing his parents about his resignation. So, he wouldn't go back home and would instead continue living in the rented house.After quitting, he had a lot of free time every day. He could not only spend more time at the gym to learn boxing and exercise, but also dedicate more time to manage his financial products and stocks.

So, after leaving the company and putting his things away at the rented house, Li Han directly went to Wang Man's place.

However, as soon as he arrived at the cake shop, he saw two police officers.

Li Han was surprised and pushed the door open and entered, asking, "Officers, is something wrong?"

"Oh, you're her boyfriend, right?" The older police officer looked at Li Han and continued, "According to our investigation, the suspect we arrested last time had been following your girlfriend for a long time. We found him frequently tailing her after she finished work. So, we came here to remind you to be careful."

No wonder he had stopped and confronted him the first time he went back with Wang Man. It wasn't a coincidence!

"That's frightening, isn't it?" Li Han frowned, "Can we apply for a restraining order to keep him away?"

"That might not be easy. After all, the other party hasn't committed any dangerous acts," the older police officer sighed and said, "We have already educated him and given him a serious warning, and it should deter him a bit."

The younger police officer added, "But you still need to take care of your girlfriend. Buy her some pepper spray for self-defence and avoid walking in deserted areas, and if you encounter any danger, call the police immediately."

"I can protect myself," Wang Man interjected, "And also, he..."

"Don't worry, officer. If it gets too late, I'll accompany her home," Li Han assured and patted his chest. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Nʘvᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

The two police officers nodded in satisfaction and left the shop.

"Ah, all this fuss for nothing!" Wang Man elbowed him on the side and asked, "Why did you come here?"

"I don't need a reason to come to my investment store, do I?" Li Han rubbed his ribs and said it with difficulty.

"Business has been good these days" Li Jia happily said from the cashier's counter, "With the new combo, we can make fewer cakes and bread. It's easier to sell everything, and there are fewer leftovers each night."

"That's worth celebrating." Li Han smiled and glanced at the Big Data App; the points had increased a bit.

It seemed that the profits had finally reached one thousand yuan in the past few days, Li Han thought to himself.

Because of the ongoing promotion for the new products, this cake shop had low profits, and without accumulating one thousand yuan, he couldn't exchange it for any DP.

Although this amount of DP was insignificant for him, it proved that his plan was feasible.

Once he had enough funds, he could continue investing in other restaurants, malls, and training institutions. He could use the Big Data App to change their business strategies and wait for the DP to increase automatically.

But, this method, although comfortable, depended on Li Han's decision-making skills to turn losses into profits. It was riskier than the projects recommended by the Big Data App.

"Let's take it easy." Li Han murmured to himself. "It's more interesting this way."

"By the way, why did you come at this time today?" Wang Man furrowed her brows and asked. "Taking a break?"

"I just quit my job," Li Han grumbled, feeling a sharp pain from where he had been hit in the ribs.

"Quit?!" Wang Man asked in astonishment, "I heard from my cousin it's difficult to get a job at a Mercedes-Benz 4S dealership, and the benefits are good. Why did you quit? Did you find a better job?"

"Something like that." Li Han grinned, "I'm here to work as a security guard."

At that moment, Wang Man clenched her fist in anger and approached him, intending to give him a beating. Li Han quickly raised his hands to explain, "Just kidding! I also have difficulties. Originally, I should have been promoted, but it was snatched away by someone using hidden means!"

Instantly, Wang Man's anger dissipated, and she frowned, looking at Li Han sympathetically and asking, "What happened?"

"Sigh, I've been the top sales champion recently. And coincidentally, our sales supervisor is on maternity leave. According to the usual practice, the position should have been given to me, but..." Li Han briefly explained about what had happened.

"That woman has no shame, and the manager is brainless!" Wang Man angrily exclaimed, "She let go of the top sales champion, isn't she sabotaging her own business by going to another store? How foolish!"

"Li Han, what are you going to do next?" Li Jia asked, "Are you going to look for a job?"

"I'll see how it goes," Li Han replied after pondering for a moment. 

If there was a way to acquire Big Data points consistently, he certainly didn't want to continue working in sales. After all, customers these days weren't all polite, and being a sales agent brought frustrations.

He already had an advantage now, so why should he endure such grievances?

But if his plan to exchange financial products for Big Data points didn't go well, he would look for a sales job to accumulate some Big Data points.

With his experience as the top sales champion at this 4S dealership, he believed it wouldn't be difficult to find another job at a different 4S dealership. Plus, with the help of the Big Data App, he would establish himself.

"I haven't properly relaxed for a long time, so I'll take a few days off, sort out my mood, and then decide," Li Han said with a smile.

"Sounds good!" Wang Man smiled back, seeing that he wasn't too disappointed. "After closing the shop tonight, the three of us will have a barbecue and drinks together. There's nothing that can't be made better with some barbecue and beer!"
