Chapter 52 Facing It with Equanimity

After arranging everything, Jiang Chenfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, his mood exceptionally pleasant.

As long as the plan proceeds step by step, squandering all the assets of the Jiang Family is just a matter of time!

"General Manager Jiang, could I possibly ask for an advance on my salary? My father needs a large sum of money for his surgery."

Seeing that Jiang Chenfeng had changed so much—even sponsoring an old-age home—Lan Xiaodie immediately plucked up the courage to speak.

Jiang Chenfeng said nonchalantly, "No need for an advance! I'll cover all your father's medical expenses! Tell me how much you need, and include the recovery costs after the surgery too!"

"G-General Manager Jiang, you..." Lan Xiaodie trembled all over, her eyes brimming with hot tears, not knowing what to say.

Before she could say anything more,

Jiang Chenfeng's phone rang.

He answered the call, and Tang Niu's voice came from the other end: "General Manager Jiang, Tianlong Group called and said they want to acquire our Haoting Hotel. Would you like to come over?"

"Oh? How did you reply?"

"I haven't replied yet. As soon as I received their call, I reported it to you immediately!"

"Good! I'll be there right away!"

After hanging up, Jiang Chenfeng stood up from his seat and asked Lan Xiaodie, "I'm heading out. Do you want me to give you a ride to the hospital?"

"Thank you, General Manager Jiang!"

Lan Xiaodie rubbed her reddened eyes and followed Jiang Chenfeng as he left the company.

Just as the two of them walked out of the company,

they saw a familiar figure walking towards them. It was none other than Protagonist Lin Tian.

Upon seeing Lin Tian, Lan Xiaodie showed a look of surprise and called out, "Brother Lin Tian!"

"Xiaodie?"

Lin Tian noticed Lan Xiaodie; he was clearly a bit surprised too and revealed a smile.

A flash of admiration crossed his eyes.

Dressed in her office professional suit, Lan Xiaodie was truly stunning!

This uniform skirt was so seductive, perfectly outlining Lan Xiaodie's figure.

Lin Tian suddenly remembered something and said with a smile, "Little sister Xiaodie, how is your father's condition? I've been reading some ancient medical books these past few days and found a disease that is very similar to your father's. If you need it, I can help treat your father."

Hearing Lin Tian's words, Lan Xiaodie immediately felt a warmth in her heart and showed a look of gratitude.

She and Lin Tian had met on the subway. At that time, the subway was extremely crowded, and a pervert was molesting her from behind.

Fortunately, Lin Tian had stepped forward, caught the pervert, and turned him over to the police station.

That was how the two of them got to know each other!

For Lan Xiaodie, Lin Tian was one of the few people in her life who could make her feel warmth.

Although Lin Tian was dressed quite ordinarily and seemed to have no background,

Lan Xiaodie had still thought more than once about whether she could take their relationship further.

After all, she was just an ordinary person herself, with no background whatsoever.

Jiang Chenfeng's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself:

[This is how the plot is supposed to go! The last few times, the plot collapsed into a complete mess; it was simply unwatchable!]

[If nothing goes wrong, the next step is for Lin Tian to personally intervene, cure Lan Xiaodie's father's serious illness, and make Lan Xiaodie fall completely in love with him!]

[And I just need to let Lin Tian take Lan Xiaodie away easily at the most appropriate time, and I can get rid of this trouble!]

[If Lin Tian proposes a bet or something, I absolutely won't agree. As long as I find some excuse to let him take Lan Xiaodie away, my mission will be complete!]

[I think Lan Xiaodie seems to like Lin Tian quite a bit; she probably wouldn't mind being part of Lin Tian's harem, right? This girl is inherently a bit insecure. Even if Lin Tian wants to take her away from me, I must give her a decent way to leave so that she won't feel like she owes me anything when she leaves.]

Lan Xiaodie heard Jiang Chenfeng's inner voice and stood frozen in place.

What is General Manager Jiang thinking about?

Why does he insist that I leave his side?

Clearly, General Manager Jiang was the first person to take care of me!

Lan Xiaodie found Jiang Chenfeng's thoughts a bit incredible. Although she had indeed often been harassed by Jiang Chenfeng in the past,

if it weren't for Jiang Chenfeng, her father would have had no money for medical treatment at all.

Come to think of it, on this point, she still needed to thank Jiang Chenfeng!

Because if she went anywhere else, she wouldn't be able to find such a high-paying job.

Therefore, Lan Xiaodie no longer had any complaints or prejudices against Jiang Chenfeng.

And thinking about it carefully, given Jiang Chenfeng's status and position, if he offered the same compensation, who knows how many beauties with better looks and figures than her would be willing to stay and work by his side.

To put it bluntly, with Jiang Chenfeng's status and position, he is the least lacking in women, or rather, beauties!

Yet Jiang Chenfeng chose her; wasn't it just because he wanted to give her a hand?

Perhaps Jiang Chenfeng was indeed a bit lecherous and often touched her inappropriately.

But Jiang Chenfeng had never forced her to do anything, and occasionally taking liberties was normal.

As for Jiang Chenfeng making her wear pantyhose and short skirts during work hours,

that must also be because he wanted her to become more confident, right?

Pantyhose and short skirts require a good enough figure, and although she had the figure, she was too insecure to dare to show it off.

Especially after hearing Jiang Chenfeng's inner voice just now, even wanting her to leave decently and not wanting her to feel any sense of indebtedness.

Doesn't this also show that everything Jiang Chenfeng did was actually for her sake?

It was she who had misunderstood General Manager Jiang!

Lan Xiaodie seemed to have suddenly had an epiphany and understood everything.

Jiang Chenfeng used various means, through coercion and inducement, to make her his personal secretary.

This was to help her get a high-paying job!

Only in this way would she have enough money to pay for her father's medical expenses.

Without Jiang Chenfeng's help, her father would have already passed away from his illness!

Jiang Chenfeng knew her personality was weak and insecure, and often bullying her in the company was also to help her become stronger.

Making her wear pantyhose and short skirts during work hours was also because he wanted to help her build self-confidence!

A confident woman is the most beautiful!

One has to admit that these behaviors of Jiang Chenfeng have indeed changed her a lot.

From a little girl who had just stepped into society and didn't understand anything,

now she could face Jiang Chenfeng's groping with indifference and face it calmly!

This change in mentality is the foundation of her becoming stronger!

Furthermore, Jiang Chenfeng's actions were also to make her feel that receiving a high salary at Hongtu Group was a matter of course.

After all, Jiang Chenfeng often touched her inappropriately; just based on this point, shouldn't she be getting a high salary?

General Manager Jiang is truly too great!
