Chapter 503: Wang Yilemon's sincerity!

In the chairman's office, Su Monong had been bullying Lin Yuan for a long, long time.

No, it should be said.

It was at the beginning, it was Su Monong bullying Lin Yuan.

But after an hour.

The plot, it reversed.

It became Lin Yuan starting to bully Su Monong.

The two of them went back and forth...

After three hours, Lin Yuan and Su Monong finally finished putting on their clothes, drenched in sweat.

Su Monong wiped the fragrant sweat from her pretty face with a tissue, then reapplied her lipstick.

She put on her stockings and high heels, then got up again.

Su Monong's charming red lips kissed Lin Yuan's face again.

Su Monong said in a soft voice: "Stupid little brother, rest assured, my driver is female. I said male driver earlier just to tease you, to see if you'd get jealous."

"Ah?" Lin Yuan was completely bewildered, "You... you're doing this on purpose to mess with me?"

"What else?" Su Monong laughed, her eyes crinkling, "Just to see if you'd get jealous. But your performance, sister is very satisfied. You really did get jealous, stupid little brother, it counts as sister not having pampered you in vain these days."

Lin Yuan asked curiously, "Director Su, then your driver is??"

Su Monong explained lightly, "My driver is my secretary, Ning Xue. From now on, Xiao Xue will be responsible for picking me up and dropping me off."

Su Monong looked at Lin Yuan and continued, "Lin Yuan, you are now my most capable assistant; the Wind Control Department cannot function without you. Hand over the duty of picking me up to Xiao Xue, so you can devote more time to work, help me gain a firm foothold in the group and seize more influence—that's the real business."

Only then did Lin Yuan understand Su Monong's intention; the feeling of emptiness in his heart vanished instantly, replaced by a sense of being valued and grounded.

"Okay, I understand." Lin Yuan nodded.

At that moment, Su Monong added, "By the way, I'll give you a car. In the company's name, I'll allocate you a vehicle."

"Ah?? Director Su, no need." Lin Yuan quickly waved his hands, "My home isn't far from the company; it takes ten or so minutes by bike, convenient and eco-friendly."

"That won't do." Su Monong's pretty face turned stern.

Su Monong said seriously, "You are now the Risk Control Director of Su Group; when you go out to discuss business and meet clients, you need to maintain appearances. If you commute by bike every day, people will think I, Su Monong, am mistreating employees, unwilling to give even a director's car. This is non-negotiable; you must obey me."

Lin Yuan wanted to refuse further, but Su Monong stopped him with a glance.

Helpless, he could only agree.

……

At 2 p. m., Su Monong personally brought Lin Yuan... straight to the Tesla 4S store in the city center.

As soon as the two entered the store, a beautiful saleswoman in professional attire enthusiastically greeted them.

Su Monong didn't waste words with the salesperson, directly pulling Lin Yuan to a white Tesla Model S Track Edition.

This is a new-energy electric car.

But it's a Tesla, so its price is not cheap.

Su Monong pointed at the car and told the beautiful saleswoman, "We'll take this car. Process the paperwork quickly; we want to pick it up today."

Lin Yuan walked around the car once, and when he saw the price tag of over 1.2 million on the body, he was dazed.

This electric car, so expensive?

It costs over a million.

Lin Yuan hurriedly tugged at Su Monong's sleeve and whispered, "Director Su, this is too valuable; I normally don't need such a good car for work."

"You're the company's director; getting a million-yuan car is quite normal, right?" Su Monong patted his hand, indifferent.

Su Monong turned to the saleswoman and smiled, "Hurry up with the paperwork; deduct the cost directly from Su Group's account."

The receptionist saleswoman, Fu Yuyu, had her eyes light up.

It seems this man named Lin Yuan is likely a high-level executive of the company.

Su Group can actually give him a million-yuan car directly?

This Lin Yuan's identity is definitely not simple.

During the processing of the paperwork.

The beautiful saleswoman Fu Yuyu specially brewed a cup of top-grade Longjing tea and brought it to Lin Yuan.

Fu Yuyu had a perfectly appropriate smile on her face: "Mr. Lin, I'm the salesperson Fu Yuyu here. This is my WeChat; if you have any issues with the car later—maintenance, repairs, or wanting to upgrade the configuration—you can contact me anytime. I guarantee I'll arrange everything properly for you, absolutely no extra trips."

As she spoke, she handed her phone to Lin Yuan; the screen showed her WeChat QR code.

Lin Yuan stared for a moment, then subconsciously glanced at Su Monong beside him...

He saw Su Monong leaning against the display car, looking at him with a half-smile, her eyes full of teasing.

Lin Yuan helplessly smiled, took out his phone, scanned Fu Yuyu's WeChat, and added her as a friend.

Fu Yuyu saw the friend request sent successfully, and her smile grew sweeter.

Fu Yuyu then began enthusiastically introducing the car's features to Lin Yuan:

"Mr. Lin, this Model S Track Edition has excellent performance—zero to 100 km/h in just 2.1 seconds, with a range of up to 675 kilometers. Moreover, its intelligent driving system is highly advanced, making highway driving quite safe for you. As for the interior, we can customize it according to your preferences; just let me know if you have any requests..."

Lin Yuan listened patiently to Fu Yuyu's introduction, occasionally nodding in response.

Su Monong leaned aside, playing with her phone, occasionally glancing up at the two.

The corner of her mouth always held a meaningful smile.

The pickup procedures were completed quickly.

Lin Yuan took over the brand-new car key, feeling a cold metallic sensation at his fingertips.

In his heart, he actually felt a faint, inexplicable flutter.

He sat in the driver's seat, while Su Monong elegantly opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.

Su Monong also thoughtfully adjusted the seat angle for him.

Lin Yuan drove this Tesla sedan worth over one million, slowly heading back to the company.

Along the way, Su Monong sat in the passenger seat and couldn't help saying, "Try its performance; don't always treat it as just an ordinary commuter car. You guys, don't you all like speeding?"

Lin Yuan took a deep breath and gently pressed the accelerator pedal.

The next second, a strong push-back sensation instantly pressed him firmly into the seat!

The Tesla Model S's body shot forward like an arrow released from its bow!

The speedometer needle surged upward, and the street scenery outside the window instantly turned into a blur of light and shadow!

Only the sound of the wind howling remained in his ears.

"Damn it!" Lin Yuan instinctively stomped on the brake, his heart still pounding!

A thin layer of sweat had already broken out on his back, "This speed is too terrifying, it's practically like riding a roller coaster."

"Otherwise, how could it deserve the three words 'track edition'?" Su Monong covered her mouth and laughed lightly, reaching out to wipe the sweat from his forehead, "A million-dollar toy ought to have something exceptional."

Lin Yuan waited a few seconds before restarting the car.

This time he was especially careful, keeping his speed steadily within the speed limit.

Lin Yuan drove while sighing inwardly.

Thinking of him, he was just a lowly loser youth.

Over these years in Hangcheng, he has done many menial jobs.

He has delivered takeout, worked as a courier, been a security guard, and driven as a chauffeur…

He never dreamed that one day he could actually own a car worth over one million.

This, however, was something he never dared to dream of when he used to live in a rundown rental apartment.

The car proceeded slowly along the highway.

Su Monong in the passenger seat suddenly said with a half-smile, "By the way, that Fu Yuyu just now was quite attentive to you, sending you WeChat messages and enthusiastically introducing the features—she obviously has feelings for you."

Hearing that, Lin Yuan embarrassedly coughed and quickly pulled out his phone: "I'll delete her WeChat right away to avoid any unnecessary misunderstanding."

"Why delete her?" Su Monong reached out and pressed his wrist to stop him, saying, "I think that girl is quite nice—pretty, well-spoken, and highly professional; she's more than good enough for you."

"You're now the Risk Control Director of Su Group, young and promising—why are you still single?" Su Monong leaned back against the chair, her gaze falling on the street scenery flashing past outside.

Su Monong spoke casually, but with an intentional guiding tone, "Fu Yuyu is about your age; you young folks have common topics. Spend more time together, grab a meal, catch a movie—who knows, you might just hit it off."

Lin Yuan stared for a moment, turned his head to look at Su Monong, not understanding her intention: "Director Su, what do you mean…"

Su Monong's voice was soft and lingering, "What I mean is, this beautiful saleswoman is not bad; if you think she's alright, you could try getting to know her—you should also be looking for a girlfriend."

Lin Yuan tightened his grip on the steering wheel, becoming even more flustered, and could only utter a vague "uh."

He avoided the topic.

He didn't notice… the moment he turned his head, the smile in Su Monong's eyes faded.

In Su Monong's beautiful eyes, a hint of complex thoughts appeared.

She didn't really think Fu Yuyu was suitable; she was clearly doing this for her daughter, Su Zhiyuan.

Her daughter Su Zhiyuan's feelings for Lin Yuan were already spreading throughout the company.

These days, Su Zhiyuan has been constantly murmuring "Lin Yuan" at home.

Even at the company, she keeps looking for Lin Yuan every day.

As long as Lin Yuan doesn't talk about love, Su Zhiyuan never gives up for a day,

As her mother, she can only think of ways to help her daughter let go of this longing.

Making Lin Yuan find a girlfriend as soon as possible is the best way to let Su Zhiyuan completely give up.

"Why aren't you speaking? Could it be you have someone you like?" Su Monong turned to press further, her eyes showing a hint of inquiry.

"No." Lin Yuan quickly denied.

But, Lin Yuan kept recalling those women's voices in his mind.

There was Qin Bore's, there was Mu Lingxue's, and also Sun Weiwei's…

The silhouettes of these women lingered in his mind, refusing to fade.

Lin Yuan's thoughts were a bit tangled at the moment. He hurriedly shook his head to press down these chaotic thoughts.

Lin Yuan explained, "I just feel that work is too busy now; I have no time for a relationship."

"Being busy at work isn't an excuse." Su Monong pressed on, "Feelings and work don't conflict; finding a suitable person by your side can also help share the pressure. That way, I'll later say hello to Fu Yuyu and tell her you think well of her."

"Director Su, really not needed!" Lin Yuan became anxious, waving his hands, "My love life is my own affair; please don't worry about it."

Seeing him so anxious that sweat was about to break out on his forehead, Su Monong finally stopped pressing him.

Su Monong merely gave a light laugh: "Fine, I won't interfere, but I've given you the opportunity—whether you seize it is up to you."

The car proceeded smoothly toward the company, and the cabin fell into a brief silence.

……

Tonight after work, Lin Yuan finally no longer needs to send Director Su home.

From now on, Director Su's commuting will be handled by Secretary Ning Xue.

In the evening, Lin Yuan came to the garage and got into the million-dollar luxury car that Director Su had just given him.

Tesla Model S.

Lin Yuan drove the car carefully all the way home.

But Lin Yuan had just started driving home.

His phone vibrated once?

Lin Yuan startled, picked up his phone, and saw it was a WeChat from the Tesla female salesperson, Fu Yuyu.

Fu Yuyu: 【Mr. Lin, thank you for your patronage today at the store~ I know a Japanese restaurant that's especially good; I'd like to invite you to dinner tonight, and after that there's a newly released movie—are you free?】

Lin Yuan looked at that message and sighed helplessly.

Lin Yuan tapped on the screen and replied: 【Sorry, Miss Fu, I still have work to handle tonight, so I won't keep the appointment. Thank you for your kindness.】

……

Over the next few days, the Wind Control Department of the Su Group…… became the most "lively" place in the entire company.

Lin Yuan led the team to push forward the reform with bold and decisive actions.

The investigation list in his hand was like a precise scalpel, directly pointing to the corruption and embezzlement issues within the company.

Previously tightly controlled by Sun Licheng, the Human Resources Department was the first to bear the brunt.

The Human Resources Director, Ning Shen, was dismissed.

Deputy Director Zhang Lei was also investigated by Lin Yuan.

Human Resources Deputy Director Zhang Lei, taking advantage of his position, falsely reported recruitment expenses and accepted kickbacks from headhunting firms.

These pieces of evidence were produced by Lin Yuan.

Zhang Lei was directly dismissed and investigated.

The supervisor in charge of payroll calculation, who privately adjusted the salaries of core positions and transferred the difference to relatives' accounts, with a clear and traceable flow, was also taken down.

Even several of Sun Licheng's confidants placed in HRBP positions were pulled out for participating in falsifying employee performance evaluations.

Within a week, inside the Human Resources Department…… the core members of the Sun Licheng Faction were all removed.

Dismissal notices were delivered one after another.

The entire department was filled with panic, yet secretly harbored anticipation.

Everyone knew this was a signal that Su Monong intended to fully regain control of the Human Resources Department.

Previously, the Human Resources Department served as Sun Licheng's "rear garden".

Sun Licheng not only controlled personnel appointments and removals, but also repeatedly tripped up Su Monong's faction in performance evaluations and job transfers.

Now the vacant director position of this key department has become the focus of the group's internal power struggle.

Wednesday afternoon.

Lin Yuan had just finished compiling the final investigation report on the Human Resources Department corruption case when he received an internal call from Su Monong: "Come to my office for a moment, bring the report."

Lin Yuan brought the report and came to the Chairman's Office.

He pushed open the door of the Chief Executive Officer's office.

Su Monong was rubbing her temples, leaning back in the chair, with obvious fatigue showing in her eyes.

"Close the door." Su Monong lifted her chin, her voice hoarse, "These past few days dealing with those old foxes on the board, plus Sun Licheng's overt and covert obstruction, my head is about to explode."

Lin Yuan did as told, closed the door, and placed the investigation report on the desk.

Seeing Su Monong's poor complexion, he voluntarily said, "Director Su, if you're really tired, may I give you a massage to relieve fatigue?"

Su Monong nodded: "Okay."

She got up and walked to the nearby lounge sofa and sat down; Su Monong kicked off her high heels, revealing her black-silk-covered jade feet.

"First, help me massage my feet; these days of meetings have left my feet sore to death." Su Monong said wearily.

Lin Yuan began to massage her feet.

Su Monong closed her beautiful eyes, clearly enjoying it.

But as the massage continued, Su Monong began to feel a stirring sensation.

Thus, Su Monong suddenly grabbed Lin Yuan's collar and then pulled him forcefully toward her.

"Mmm~" Lin Yuan hadn't even reacted before his mouth was blocked by Director Su.

In the Chairman's Office, only the sound of lingering kisses remained.

Then, a layer of mist spread across the office's glass window.

Because the temperature inside the office was rising.

……

After over two hours, the office sofa finally stopped swaying.

Su Monong leaned against Lin Yuan's embrace, enjoying the residual warmth.

Su Monong's long hair was somewhat disheveled, yet it made her look even more stunningly beautiful.

Her jade-like finger lightly drew circles on Lin Yuan's chest.

"By the way, how has the recent investigation work been? Give me a summary." Su Monong asked while enjoying Lin Yuan's presence.

Lin Yuan replied:

"The corruption evidence in the Human Resources Department is solid; the total amount of violations by those involved exceeds twenty million. The disciplinary inspection department has already coordinated with them, and a formal investigation will be filed next week."

"Now the department consists only of neutrals or those wanting to side with us; the director position is vacant, which is perfect for us to place our own people."

Su Monong closed her beautiful eyes, her fingers lightly tapping the sofa armrest.

Her tone was thoughtful: "This position is too critical; not only must one understand HR management, but also be absolutely reliable and able to help me control personnel authority. Do you have any suitable candidates?"

Lin Yuan felt the warm breath of the person in his arms, his fingers gently combing through her disheveled hair.

Lin Yuan pondered, then said hesitantly: "I have a candidate in mind…… the Manager of the Personnel Department, Wang Yining—what do you think?"

"Wang Yining?" Su Monong's eyelashes fluttered as she lifted her head from Lin Yuan's embrace, her eyes still flushed, "Is that the efficient and pretty young lady?"

"It's her." Lin Yuan nodded, saying, "When I first joined, she handled all the paperwork for me."

"I think she's a good person. At that time I forgot to bring the original of my degree certificate; she proactively helped me coordinate, using an electronic copy for provisional registration, so my onboarding wasn't delayed. Later, after getting to know her, I found she is very principled."

"Last time, Sun Licheng's nephew tried to enter the Wind Control Department through the back door; his resume didn't even pass her initial screening, with the reason being 'unsuitable professional background and no relevant experience,' and she didn't give Sun Licheng any face at all."

Su Monong raised her eyebrows upon hearing that.

Her jade fingertip lightly tapped Lin Yuan's chest: "I didn't expect you to be so observant. She is indeed someone I poached from a competitor company back then; her business ability is top-notch, but I rarely interact with her directly, so I'm unsure whether, at this critical juncture of power transition, she can truly be of one mind with us."

"After all, the Human Resources Department holds the lifeline of the company's personnel affairs; there's no room for the slightest mistake. I need to ascertain whether she is sincere enough and principled enough." Su Monong said wistfully.

"I've considered that." Lin Yuan grasped her restless fingers, speaking earnestly, "Wang Yining has been with the company for three years; Sun Licheng's side has tried more than once to lure her, offering her a deputy director position, which she declined each time by saying she only wants to do her job well. During our investigation of Zhang Lei, she also quietly passed me an anonymous dataset showing abnormal compensation, helping us find the key evidence."

Su Monong's eyes flickered with a hint of surprise, "Oh really?"

But then Su Monong understood: "No wonder Zhang Lei fell so fast—turns out she's been backing him from behind."

Su Monong leaned back into Lin Yuan's embrace, her tone decisive: "This girl has both courage and wit. But talk is cheap—go talk to her, sound out her intention to promote her, and see how sincere she really is."

"I understand." Lin Yuan nodded in agreement, just about to rise and straighten his clothes.

But Su Monong grabbed his tie.

"What's the rush?" Su Monong nibbled his earlobe, her voice lazy and alluring, "Before we talk, let me rest a while longer with you, sis. Besides, your massage skills are so good—how could I not ask you to give me a little more service?"

Lin Yuan smiled helplessly and could only sit back down on the sofa.

Su Monong curled up like a lazy kitten in his arms, playing with his fingers.

Su Monong suddenly said, "By the way, if she gets too 'enthusiastic' when showing her loyalty, don't lose control."

"Director Su, are you testing me?" Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, teasing.

"Pretty much." Su Monong chuckled, "After all, you're my most capable assistant right now—I can't let anyone easily steal you away."

But Su Monong added softly, "But if you really can't hold back, it's fine—as long as Wang Yining becomes yours, she'll effectively become mine too; the outcome's the same. As long as she's willing to join us."

Lin Yuan didn't know how to explain.

Director Su, you're awfully bold.

The two lingered another half hour before Lin Yuan finally rose and left the Chairman's Office…

…

In the afternoon, Lin Yuan went straight to the floor where the HR department is located.

As soon as Lin Yuan entered the HR department, he saw Wang Yining clutching a stack of documents, heading toward the meeting room.

Wang Yining had a light sheen of sweat on her forehead, her glasses slipping to the tip of her nose, making her look both cute and flustered.

This Wang Yining is especially conscientious in her work.

"Manager Wang." Lin Yuan called out to her.

Wang Yining turned her head, her lovely eyes widening.

Upon seeing it was Lin Yuan,

Wang Yining quickly stopped, adjusted her glasses, and gave a crisp smile: "Director Lin? Do you need something?"

"I have something to discuss with you—would it be convenient to come to your office?"

"Of course." Wang Yining handed the files to the assistant beside her.

Then Wang Yining led Lin Yuan… into her office.

Her office was much plainer than Su Monong's, the desk piled with personnel files and data analysis reports, a thriving pothos in the corner.

"Please have a seat, Director Lin—I'll get you water." Wang Yining was about to turn when Lin Yuan called her back.

"No need, I'll keep it short." Lin Yuan sat opposite her.

Lin Yuan got straight to the point: "The HR director position is vacant; Director Su intends to promote you. I'm here to ask what you think and to see if you're truly sincere about taking on this responsibility."

Wang Yining's water cup clanged against the desk.

Her eyes flashed with excitement, then quickly composed themselves into solemnity.

Wang Yining said solemnly, "Director Lin, I've been with the Su Group for three years. If Director Su and you trust me, I, Wang Yining, pledge my integrity—I will absolutely sincerely take this post and turn the HR department into Director Su's strongest backing."

Lin Yuan nodded.

Lin Yuan pondered, then continued, "How would you demonstrate your sincerity? This is what Director Su asked me to convey."

Mere verbal promises aren't enough.

You need concrete action.

Wang Yining bit her lip, looked at Lin Yuan, and suddenly asked, "Director Lin, I have a question: Director Su never wanted to promote me before, and I'm not part of her faction—I've always stayed neutral. So why is she suddenly promoting me now?"

This question made Wang Yining feel strange.

At the company, she's always stayed neutral; logically, Su Monong wouldn't choose to promote her.

But why, today, would Su Monong suddenly choose to promote her??

Lin Yuan coughed and explained, "I recommended you to Director Su."

Hearing that, Wang Yining's eyes narrowed slightly, and she realized.

"I see now, I understand." Wang Yining looked at Lin Yuan, gratitude in her eyes, "Thank you, Director Lin, for your recommendation."

As she spoke, Wang Yining suddenly walked to the office door and, with a backhand, locked it.

Before Lin Yuan could react, he saw Wang Yining bite her lip and slowly walk toward him.

As she walked, she gently unfastened the buttons of her white shirt with her jade-like hand.

"Director Lin, since you're willing to recommend me… I'm willing to give a hundred percent of my sincerity—I want to give you my heart." Wang Yining said…
