~7 min read 1,385 words

After Zhang Siyan arrived at the company, she hadn't even spoken a few words to Qian Li before she was called to Kangshilan Company by a phone call from Zhao Jingyu.

"Assistant Zhao, is there something you need me for?" Zhang Siyan asked.

"General Manager Huo wants to see you; there are some matters she wishes to discuss with you," Zhao Jingyu said.

After returning last night, Zhao Jingyu had immediately gone to Huo Zhiyuan's villa and recounted the events in their entirety.

In the morning, she had received notification that Huo Zhiyuan wanted to see Zhang Siyan.

"General Manager Huo wants to see me?" Zhang Siyan was somewhat puzzled. Up until now, she had never met this General Manager Huo, so why was she suddenly looking for her?

However, she immediately thought of the events from last night, thinking that it was likely related to Prince Haiman; otherwise, she wouldn't be seeing her at this time.

Upon arriving at Huo Zhiyuan's office, Zhang Siyan was stunned the moment she saw Huo Zhiyuan.

Isn't this the big client from their shop last time?

But then she immediately thought of what Zhao Jingyu had said at the beginning, that Kangshilan Company had already inspected their shop's situation. Could it be that Huo Zhiyuan had inspected it personally?

And Huo Zhiyuan's subsequent attitude made Zhang Siyan even more surprised. She saw Huo Zhiyuan walk over directly from behind her desk as she entered, the smile on her face as gentle as an elder in the family seeing a younger generation.

"You're here, sit down quickly." Huo Zhiyuan pulled Zhang Siyan's hand and sat her on the sofa, not looking like a leader meeting a subordinate at all, but rather like an elder and a younger person chatting about family matters.

Zhang Siyan looked quite flattered, "General Manager Huo."

"No need to be so formal. I am a bit older than you; you can call me Huo Yi," Huo Zhiyuan said with a smile.

Zhang Siyan hesitated slightly, but seeing Huo Zhiyuan's gaze, she didn't know why, but she opened her mouth and said, "Huo Yi."

Hearing this "Huo Yi" from Zhang Siyan, Huo Zhiyuan appeared very happy and responded heavily, "Hey!"

Although what surprised Zhang Siyan even more was that Huo Zhiyuan didn't talk to her about work matters, but really just chatted with her about family affairs.

This caused the tension in Zhang Siyan's heart to dissipate a lot, but Zhang Siyan knew that Huo Zhiyuan probably wouldn't just call her over to chat about these things, so she quickly asked, "Huo Yi, is there something you need me for?"

Huo Zhiyuan nodded and said, "There are some things I want to ask you about."

"Please ask." Zhang Siyan appeared much more solemn.

"No need to be nervous, it's not a big deal either. I just wanted to ask if you would like to come work at our Kangshilan Company." Huo Zhiyuan patted Zhang Siyan's hand, signaling her to relax.

Zhang Siyan was somewhat puzzled, "Am I not already working at Kangshilan Company now?"

"Not doing sales, but becoming a project Supervisor," Huo Zhiyuan said.

Zhang Siyan truly hadn't expected that this was the purpose of Huo Zhiyuan calling her over. To be in charge of a project—this was not the agent work she was currently doing.

"Huo Yi, I... I don't have this ability," Zhang Siyan said somewhat nervously.

She had never participated in work before; her first job was opening a shop with Qian Li, and then, somehow, she became an agent for Kangshilan, and finally reached where she was now.

Although it sounded like a long time, she had only been working for a few months in total. Now, asking her to supervise a project, she felt she truly didn't have the ability.

"Whose ability is there from the very beginning? Everything requires tempering," Huo Zhiyuan said nonchalantly.

"But..." Zhang Siyan still wanted to say something, but was quickly interrupted by Huo Zhiyuan, "Actually, this isn't an opportunity you are getting for nothing; there are requirements as well."

Her saying this made Zhang Siyan feel relieved; just now, Huo Zhiyuan's words were like a pie falling from the sky, making her feel somewhat insecure.

Huo Zhiyuan said, "Our company is currently discussing a cooperation project with Prince Haiman, and I have also heard from Jingyu about what happened last night, so I thought about letting you go and negotiate this project with Prince Haiman, and then this project will be under your full supervision."

According to Huo Zhiyuan's original plan, she would only transfer Zhang Siyan into the company to serve as a project Supervisor once Zhang Siyan's ability and insight had been tempered to a certain level.

Huo Zhiyuan had been looking for a suitable opportunity during this time; after all, a project Supervisor is very important. Although she was the company's largest shareholder, such matters still required the board of directors' deliberation to make a decision.

Therefore, Huo Zhiyuan had needed to make full preparations beforehand.

But ever since Zhao Jingyu told her about what happened at Sun Gaixin's Engagement ceremony yesterday, Huo Zhiyuan knew the opportunity had arrived.

As long as Zhang Siyan could facilitate the cooperation project with Prince Haiman through her own efforts, then she would have a reason to push Zhang Siyan into this position.

Even if there were still some resistance, this bit of resistance wouldn't be anything to Huo Zhiyuan.

Although it might be a bit too hasty now, Huo Zhiyuan knew even better that opportunities are fleeting; if this chance were missed, it might very well lead to accidents next time.

Moreover, as long as this time is successful, it would also be equivalent to telling everyone that Zhang Siyan has the connection of Prince Haiman behind her, which would immediately establish Zhang Siyan's own voice within the company.

Huo Zhiyuan had considered a lot for this matter, and after thinking it over repeatedly, she still decided to do it.

Listening to Huo Zhiyuan's words, Zhang Siyan thought to herself that it was indeed so. She actually still didn't quite understand the significance of a project Supervisor at Kangshilan Company.

It wasn't that she could become a project Supervisor just by saying she would facilitate this cooperation; the interests and power involved were immense.

And what Huo Zhiyuan didn't tell Zhang Siyan was that even without this matter, they actually had a chance at this cooperation with Prince Haiman, it just required waiting; otherwise, Huo Zhiyuan wouldn't have decided to wait at the door when Prince Haiman came to Huaxia at the time.

It was precisely because she had confidence that Huo Zhiyuan decided to do this.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Haiman is my father's friend. I don't want there to be any conflict of interest between them because of me." Although Zhang Siyan was very tempted, she still refused.

She had seen everything Zhang Ran had done for her during this time and kept it in her heart. Even if she hadn't expressed it, Zhang Siyan had already accepted Zhang Ran in her heart.

Moreover, there shouldn't be many old friends of her father left now, and she didn't want to destroy this friendship between the two.

What surprised Zhang Siyan was that when Huo Zhiyuan heard her say this, not only was she not angry, but she actually seemed somewhat happy?

"You don't need to worry about this. We have already prepared the cooperation plan here. When the time comes, you just handle it officially. If it doesn't succeed, it doesn't matter," Huo Zhiyuan said with a smile.

Zhang Siyan was somewhat puzzled at this moment. Since that was the case, why look for her?

Seeing her appearance, Huo Zhiyuan knew what she was thinking and had already prepared her rhetoric, "Letting you go is actually to increase the success rate. Regardless, you are after all the niece recognized by Prince Haiman. As long as he leans even slightly, we will have increased our success rate by a lot."

Next, Huo Zhiyuan and Zhang Siyan talked in detail about their project. When Zhang Siyan finished listening, she also felt that this project was a very good one, and it seemed that it inherently had a relatively high chance of cooperating with Prince Haiman.
