Chapter 10, The Genius and the Idiot

Ye Feng patted his belly, smiled, and said, "It is not that my request is simple; it is just that you all imagine it to be too complicated."

Xu Shuting was taken aback, unable to help but reassess Ye Feng once more. Perhaps this was the most sensible thing she had heard him say since their first meeting. Could it be that the saying, "A fool's thousand thoughts will surely yield one insight," is indeed true? She also realized that while Ye Feng looked rather foolish when he had a serious expression, he was surprisingly handsome when he smiled

Ye Feng nodded slightly, not refusing, but did not forget to say, "I will return it to you next time"

Although this reverse relationship is not entirely accurate, it is applied by many as a truth without proof. This time, Shen Yang took the position of director at this small company, partly to challenge his own abilities, and partly because Xu Shuting, relying on her female intuition, is aware of it but is too lazy to think about it.

Desire is a devil, capable of transforming a person into something extremely terrifying, resorting to any means necessary. The devil lures humanity into an inescapable abyss through desire. However, without desire, can a person still be considered a devil? Xu Shuting thought of this and unexpectedly shivered.

Xu Shuting fell silent for a moment, "Your request seems quite simple?"

Mr. Ye, I am very sorry. Xu Shu https://m.hetushu.com.com unexpectedly took the initiative to apologize on behalf of his subordinate, perhaps indicating that for a CEO, managing the relationships among subordinates is also very important

She reached out and took the contract, Xu Shuting glanced at it briefly. Fortunately, the gentleman who wrote it in Chinese was not difficult to understand. "Mr. Ye, then we have an agreement. You can officially start work tomorrow. Do you have any questions?"

Xu Shuting has returned to normal, trying her best to display a captivating smile, "Alright."

Xu Shuting finally realized something: Ye Feng is not foolish, nor is he simple-minded. More accurately, it seems that he has no ideals, or to put it more precisely, he has no desires

However, Shenyang indeed possesses some strength and a network of connections. In just two months, he has already achieved a performance of 500,000, which made Xu Shuting feel that her decision to personally recruit him was not mistaken. Therefore, although he is somewhat arrogant, Xu Shuting can tolerate it. However, upon seeing the expression he directed at Ye Feng, Xu Shuting unexpectedly felt a rare surge of anger. In dealing with others, one must first show a basic level of respect. Relationships are reciprocal; if you do not respect others, how can you expect them to respect you?

Xu Shuting looked at him for a while and said, "The cafeteria is on the first floor, but you need a company certificate to apply for a card." After checking the time, she added, "However, the time for applying for the card has already passed. Tomorrow, come a bit earlier, and let Xiao Wang help you with the meal card. I haven't eaten either; shall we go together?"

"Ye Feng, let's go," Xu Shuting said, ignoring the intense gaze from Shen Yang, and already walked ahead towards the elevator. Ye Feng retracted his hand; Shen Yang did not take a closer look. His entire focus was on Xu Shuting, and he did not notice the pair of eyes behind the wide-rimmed glasses, which revealed a hint of mockery and sorrow.

A young person hurriedly walked in, exuding an air of arrogance. Cold and aloof, like a penguin rushing to the Arctic, upon seeing Xu Shuting's smile, their expression shifted from minus eight degrees to thirty-seven degrees Celsius. "Xu, have you eaten yet?"

Shenyang merely nodded, displaying a look of disdain, almost writing on his face, "Who are you?" He did not extend his hand, for his principle was that one could treat others with the warmth of Comrade Lei Feng in spring, but could also be as ruthless as autumn winds sweeping away fallen leaves. The key was the object of his attention, and Ye Feng, in his current state, was clearly not worth his regard, especially since he was merely a salesperson

Xu Shuting ordered two vegetarian dishes and a bowl of soup, and Ye Feng did the same. The two of them ate in silence, clearly lacking any common language. They were essentially living in two entirely different worlds. Of course, it was not a matter of the realms of yin and yang; rather, there are many ways to delineate worlds in this life, and numerous hierarchies as well

"Shenyang," Xu Shuting introduced to Ye Feng, "the company's sales director. You are both young people." At this point, Xu Shuting had lost the desire to continue the introduction. No matter how one looked at it, Ye Feng could not be described as a young person; his appearance suggested that even a seventy or eighty-year-old man might have more desire than he did.

Xu Shuting felt somewhat displeased. Shenyang, a graduate of a prestigious university with a major in marketing, possessed three years of sales experience in a well-known company. She was talented, exceptionally so. However, talented individuals are often quite arrogant, for how else could their talents be showcased?

My name is Ye Feng, the new salesperson. Hello, Director Shen. Ye Feng unexpectedly extended his hand to greet her, leaving Xu Shuting momentarily stunned, almost believing that the ninth wonder of the world existed.

After he uttered such a somewhat philosophical yet foolish remark, he had already left Xu Shuting behind and walked towards the door. Halfway there, he turned back, smiled apologetically, and said, "That is not the exit; the exit is on the opposite side"

"Mr. Xu," Shenyang called out, watching the two enter the elevator. In an instant, his view was blocked by the elevator doors, leaving him somewhat bewildered. "What did I do wrong?"

Indeed, he was somewhat impolite this time. However, having spent time with him, you may discover that he is quite a capable individual. Xu Shuting sighed, noting that among young people like Shen Yang, how many truly understand the concept of politeness? They can easily discern who is worth befriending and who is worth forming deeper connections with. Someone like Ye Feng would immediately find himself on Shen Yang's blacklist; this is simply a matter of habit, and one cannot blame Shen Yang for being indifferent towards Ye Feng.

In Xu Shuting's eyes, the food here is certainly not something that can be described as merely decent. From her perspective, it could be said to be a complete mess. She was forcing herself to eat the food, yet looking at Ye Feng, he was actually enjoying it. Remembering his theory about ten yuan high-end fast food, Zhang Facai, three million, or even twenty million orders, Xu Shuting could only find this person very strange

... ...

Xu Shuting stared blankly at Ye Feng's back, truly at a loss for how to describe him—was he a genius or a fool

When the two arrived at the restaurant downstairs, there were already fewer diners. The bustling city is home to a hurried crowd, and the lunch breaks for workers are brief. After hastily grabbing a bite, they seize the time to rest, for only with sufficient rest can they face the new round of challenges ahead

I have encountered a remarkable person, Xu Shuting self-deprecatingly remarked. After living for over twenty years, she finally saw someone who regards wealth as mere dirt, although this remarkable person, no matter how one looks at them, seems to have been raised on dirt.

Ye Feng had no issues and truly could not think of any problems. However, when he turned around, he suddenly recalled a question that was very important to him, "Mr. Xu? Where do the company employees go to eat?"

Apologies?" Ye Feng chuckled, "Is it because the director of Shenyang refuses to shake hands with me?"

After spending a long time together? Ye Feng murmured to himself, repeating the phrase, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. How long will this time last, one month or two months?

It was not until the meal was nearly finished that Ye Feng finally raised his head and smiled, saying, "The food prepared by the restaurant is quite delicious"

Even if she could find a hint of joy on Ye Feng's face, Xu Shuting would still consider him somewhat human, possessing some emotions. However, what truly disappointed her was that Ye Feng merely uttered an "ah," handed over the form, and seemed to regard 360,000 as no different from 3.6.
