Chapter 1176: Chapter 453: Ambition and Longing (2)

She learned this move from the other party, which made it somewhat awkward.

”Ding——” The elevator doors slowly opened.

Yao Lingling quickly bent down to say goodbye and hurried back to the office area.

First, she got a cup of hot water, drank it all in one go, and then started packing her things.

The exhibition lasts for 4 days, during which they basically don’t come to the company, so many things need to be taken over there just in case.

”Lingling.” A voice called from behind.

Yao Lingling quickly turned around and said with a smile, ”What’s up, Brother Liu?”

Brother Liu looked around, lowered his voice, and said, ”I just heard from Wang in the Human Resources Department that our HR Director is currently reviewing your records, attendance, performance, and all that.”

Yao Lingling was taken aback, ”Ah? This... why?”

Brother Liu is a veteran in the company, well-connected up and down.

He is currently the Administrative Manager of the Qimeng Business Department, helping Xiao Mingxuan with daily affairs.

He’s particularly well-informed.

Last time when Lin Muxue came to visit the company, it was Brother Liu who first spread the news.

Brother Liu smiled and whispered, ”Could it be about making your position permanent?”

”Ah! Right!” Yao Lingling exclaimed, her heart starting to race.

Within Shangya Clothing Design Company, transferring or promoting certain positions have an internal probationary period.

For example, a Designer Assistant being promoted to Lead Designer requires independently managing design direction, team management, cross-department communication, and so on, hence a 3-month probationary period is set.

It’s called a probation period, but it’s really an adaptation period with little chance of failing.

She was officially promoted in June, and now it’s exactly 3 months.

After becoming permanent, her salary won’t increase, but her commission will go from 0.5% to 0.8%, greatly boosting her income.

Recently, she’s been so busy with the exhibition that she almost forgot about this.

”Haha, congratulations in advance. After the exhibition, a few colleagues and I will celebrate with you. You’re the youngest Lead Designer in the company.” Brother Liu said cheerfully.

Yao Lingling beamed, ”Thank you, Brother Liu!”

Brother Liu waved his hand, ”Alright, get back to work. I just wanted to tell you this to make you happy in advance.”

”Alright, got it.”

Watching Brother Liu leave, Yao Lingling felt instantly motivated.

She clenched her fist, silently cheering herself on.

If she can really win an award at the exhibition, as the Lead Designer, she’ll gain a bit of recognition.

Then even the senior will definitely look at me differently!

...

At Mortals Media, in a small office.

”Buzz buzz buzz——” The phone suddenly vibrated violently.

Xu Qing glanced at it. It was a local unfamiliar landline number.

”Another sales call?”

Slightly muttering, Xu Qing answered the call, with a hint of wariness in her tone, ”Hello? Who is this?”

”Hello, I’m Wang Bin, the Sales Manager from Desheng Auto Trading. May I speak to Ms. Xu Qing?” A gentle and polite voice came from the other end of the line.

”Yes, this is she.” Xu Qing blinked, feeling a bit surprised.

Good heavens, do you have such a keen sense of smell? You already know I have savings?

Trying to coax me into buying a car?

Haha, I’m not falling for that!

Cars don’t hold their value. If anything, I’d buy a house!

As a senior penny-pincher, Xu Qing is particularly thrifty with spending. Her biggest hobby is saving money.

”Here’s the thing, Ms. Xu Qing.” Sales Manager Wang Bin said enthusiastically, ”Your boyfriend, Mr. Tang Song, has pre-ordered an Aston Martin DB11 for you with us. Are you available to choose a color now?”

”Hello? Ms. Xu Qing, is the signal bad?”

”Can you hear me?”

The voice in the receiver was wandering, Xu Qing clenched her phone, her voice trembling slightly, ”You... what did you say?”

Sales Manager Wang Bin hurriedly repeated himself.

Xu Qing immediately nodded, ”Available! Available!”

”Then I’ll add your WeChat, and we can quickly confirm the color. After that, we’ll arrange for delivery so you can pick up the car as soon as possible.”

”Th-thank you.” Xu Qing responded mechanically, her mind blank.

”Alright, have a nice day, goodbye.”

After hanging up the phone, Xu Qing sat dazed at her desk, breathing heavily, with her mind buzzing.

After her first time with Tang Song, he did say he wanted to gift her a car.

A few days ago, when they were at North City Garden, he also mentioned this.

She didn’t take it seriously, nor did she actually want him to gift a car.

Knowing about Wen Ruan and Jing, she was still with Tang Song purely driven by hormones and fantasy.

After all, in her novel, she wrote Tang Song as the male lead, a man who can fulfill her fantasies.

She just wanted to be close to him, to play ball, to date.

She had even prepared herself for a possible breakup in the future.

But she didn’t expect Tang Song to actually gift her the car, and it was an Aston Martin DB11 Volante.

In the novel ”Accidentally Entered the Wrong Room and then I Found a Bossy CEO”, Xu Yanqing, after achieving success in her career, purchased her first car which was a DB11.

Once again, the story in the novel mirrored reality.

For the imaginative Xu Qing, it felt somewhat mysterious and surreal.

As if she had been chosen by fate as the ”protagonist.”

While she was lost in thought, her phone vibrated again.

It was a friend request from Sales Manager Wang Bin.

Xu Qing shuddered a bit, quickly accepted the request, checked the photos he sent, and directly chose the ”Pet Satin Glacier Blue” color that Xu Yanqing drove in the novel.

This is an Aston Martin globally exclusive custom color, and she had been enviously eyeing it when she was researching.

Those days, she even dreamed of herself cruising around in a convertible sports car.
