Chapter 649: Your Son Is Just Like a Dog
What?Lin Shanshan actually said she wanted Chen Hai’s boss to offer cigarettes to Lin Fan?
That’s such a shocking statement.
How could Lin Shanshan say something like that?
"This girl must be crazy!"
"She must be out of her mind!"
"Really lost it!"
Everyone felt Lin Shanshan was simply crazy and started to criticize.
"Hahaha..." The village chief couldn’t help but burst into laughter, holding his stomach, "Did I hear wrong, what did she say? She wants the Big Boss to offer cigarettes to Lin Fan. Let me be straight here, where did you get the courage? Does your brother deserve it?"
Chen Datou said, "Shanshan, I understand you’re trying to defend your brother, but you can’t say such brainless things. See, now it’s just a big joke!"
Lin Dagui immediately said, "Shanshan, don’t talk nonsense. Stop talking!"
Their family had already lost enough face today, humiliated in front of everyone. Everyone was comparing Lin Fan with Chen Hai, constantly praising Chen Hai while stepping on Lin Fan, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
But he had no confidence to argue with others because Little Fan indeed wasn’t doing as well as others. What could he say?
Mrs. Lin was red-faced and embarrassed, really just wanting to leave quickly. Staying here was pointless; she was totally out of sorts.
"What nonsense are you all talking about? In my eyes, Brother Fan is the best!"
Suddenly, a voice shouted, and Dog No.2 stood up.
Even Dog No.2 couldn’t take it anymore as everyone was crazily laughing at Lin Fan.
He Chunyu did not stop Dog No.2 and stood up as well, saying, "I think so too!"
"What?" The village chief laughed, "What good can an idiot say? An idiot’s words are just silly words!"
"Hahaha..." The crowd burst into laughter again.
Chen Datou said, "Dog No.2, you said your Brother Fan is the best. In what way is he the best?"
Dog No.2 stammered, "He, he..."
The village chief interrupted Dog No.2, "He, he, he! You idiot, you only know how to say silly things!"
He Chunyu angrily said, "Village chief, that’s enough. Don’t you think you’re being too much?"
The village chief’s face turned cold, "You know your son is an idiot, so don’t let him talk. And you join in the ruckus, shut up!"
Chen Datou tried to smooth things over, "Today is my son Xiaohai’s wedding, a joyful occasion. There’s no need for the village chief to be angry over an idiot. Let’s look at Da Gui, how about it, Da Gui, want your son to have a good job?"
Everyone looked at Lin Dagui again.
At this time, that wealthy mid-aged man, Chen Hai’s boss, also smilingly looked at Lin Dagui, seeing if Lin Dagui would come over to pour tea and offer cigarettes to please him.
This boss was also feeling very superior. Today was Chen Hai’s wedding, but the largest guest here was him. He was the groom’s boss. The groom needed to run after and fawn on him; who could be more prestigious than that?
"You’ve been talking about this Lin Fan for a while, and I think I’ve got an impression now."
The boss spoke, "This kid Lin Fan, he should be the more dull and introverted type, right? Looking at his dad, like father, like son. Youngsters should be a little more clever and more sociable. They should be more engaging with people. Xiaohai is doing this quite well."
The village chief said with a smile, "The Big Boss is imparting workplace wisdom, giving a lesson to the young people here. How rare and valuable, right? All the kids here should listen well, applause everyone!"
The village chief led the applause.
The whole crowd applauded enthusiastically.
The boss said with a smile, "Thank you for the enthusiasm, since everyone wants to hear, I’ll say a bit more. Young people entering society, working ability is undoubtedly important. But more importantly, is being able to handle things, which is essentially about good interpersonal relationships. Offering a cigarette upon meeting someone, a few pleasantries, this is the most basic. From your words just now, I can tell Lin Fan is not good at handling things, probably thinking he’s a proud college student. Not offering a cigarette, that’s just being a bookworm! How his work ability is, I don’t know. But not being good at handling things will cause him to not do well even after graduating from college. If I’m not mistaken, he is probably that kind of employee who just buries himself in his tasks at work, leaves right at closing time, faster than anyone, and is unwilling to take on any extra, not willing to work overtime, which won’t work. Bosses dislike this type of employee the most. Youngsters shouldn’t be afraid of suffering losses. Suffering losses is a blessing; it’s also building capital for oneself."
Most of the young people present nodded in agreement.
Especially those groomsmen and bridesmaids, who were all working professionals. They found the boss’s words very enlightening and agreed deeply.
Lin Shanshan chuckled, "You’re the Big Boss, of course, you’d say that. You wish employees would work overtime for free. Isn’t this the legendary 996?"
The boss glanced at Lin Shanshan, "I see you’re young, probably still studying. You’re really too naive. What’s wrong with 996? 996 is a blessing for young people. It’s not easy for young people to find a job. Overtime is investing and increasing value in oneself. Everybody works overtime. If you don’t, you’ll fall behind. No wonder your brother isn’t doing well. Xiaohai is different. Xiaohai is diligent and dedicated at work, and that’s what I admire most; that’s what I call handling things well."
"The boss is right, the boss is always right!" Chen Hai said loudly, leading the applause.
"What he means is, working for him, you have to be as obedient as our dog Wangcai. Stick your tongue out to please him, and you’ll get some meat." Dog No.2 suddenly said.
Everyone was stunned, even though Dog No.2 was an idiot, but it seemed to make sense.
Chen Datou laughed, "See, even an idiot understands this logic; surely you can’t still not get it, girl?"
Lin Shanshan laughed mischievously, "What Dog No.2 said, isn’t it actually saying your son is like a dog!"
The whole room fell silent, and the atmosphere became a bit awkward.
Chen Datou’s face darkened in anger, "You girl, watch your mouth. No manners!"
Seeing Lin Shanshan was about to become the target of everyone’s criticism.
Lin Dagui quickly approached the boss, pulled out a Double Happiness cigarette pack. This type of Double Happiness is the cheapest, only 8 yuan a pack. Lin Dagui usually saves money and can’t bear to smoke expensive cigarettes.
Lin Dagui shook out a Double Happiness cigarette, offering it to the boss with a wry smile, "The young girl doesn’t understand rules, please don’t hold it against us. Boss, have a cigarette."
The boss didn’t take it, snorted, and said, "I heard your son is a delivery man?"
Lin Dagui, seeing that the other party didn’t accept the cigarette, felt a bit embarrassed. He couldn’t take it back, so he reluctantly said, "Um, yes, Little Fan is indeed delivering food."
The boss coldly said, "Delivering food doesn’t require any skills, just legs. I think your son wasted his university education. Finding a good job will be tough!"
This clearly meant he had no intention of giving Lin Dagui face or helping find a job for Lin Fan.
"Uncle Da Gui, you should save this cheap cigarette. Here boss, have a cigarette."
Chen Hai leaned over, smiling, and offered a Zhonghua cigarette.
"Ah! Someone else is coming, and it’s an important guest!"
Suddenly someone said, and it turned out there was a convoy of luxury cars approaching.
