Chapter 804 uses the pretext of arranging work to set a trap for Zhu Minjie.
Around 8 o'clock, just as Zhou Chen was lying in bed taking stock of his gains from winning over Zhu Zhe, Zhu Minjie came over to claim credit.
Zhou Chen got up, dressed, and then deliberately ruffled his hair, making it look like a bird's nest, before walking to the door and opening it.
Zhu Minjie looked around the room but didn't see his sister, which made him breathe a sigh of relief. He then looked at Zhou Chen and asked, "Brother-in-law, how did things go last night? Did the plan go smoothly?"
Hehe, Zhou Chen certainly couldn't admit that he had a relationship with Zhu Zhe, so he tricked Zhu Minjie by saying, "Don't mention it. You really messed me up last night. Your sister is such a shrewd person. Do you think the plan could fool her?"
After you left, I pretended to be drunk and tried to take advantage of your sister so I could win her over as soon as possible. But as soon as I kissed her, your sister slapped me across the face.
I couldn't keep up the act any longer. My sister pointed out that I was faking being drunk, and even suspected that we had ulterior motives and had tricked her into coming to the hotel. She said a lot of nasty things and gave me a severe scolding.
My face still hurts. You didn't ask Zhu Zhe to take care of me, you asked him to get revenge on me, didn't you?
Also, you need to be careful. Your sister might cause you trouble too. She was furious yesterday, and I didn't dare to mess with her, let alone sleep with her.
Hehe, Zhou Chen started lying, even making himself sound pitiful, as if he had suffered a great loss.
After hearing Zhou Chen's explanation, Zhu Minjie was speechless. He felt that his plan was very good, so how could it have failed?
In the end, the only reason for the failure could be attributed to Zhou Chen's poor acting skills, which allowed his sister to see through the flaws. Of course, Zhu Minjie could not say these words out loud, because it would be easy to offend Zhou Chen.
"Brother-in-law, it's okay. If it doesn't work this time, we can do it next time. We'll think of something when my sister calms down in a couple of days."
I believe that as long as we work together, we can definitely win my sister over, and then we'll be family.
Zhu Minjie made another guarantee, and Zhou Chen laughed. If Zhu Zhe heard you say that, she would probably curse you out again. You used all your cunning on scheming against your family, didn't you?
"If you used that intelligence on your work, you might have succeeded long ago. I'd better handle my own affairs, so that I won't suffer if Zhu Zhe makes a move. But I still want to thank you for your kindness."
Zhou Chen directly rejected Zhu Minjie's offer. After all, Zhou Chen had already won over Zhu Zhe, and any plans Zhu Minjie made in the future would only cause trouble for him. It was better to let him behave himself.
But Zhu Minjie clearly didn't think that way. He was unwilling to give up such a good opportunity to help Zhou Chen win over his sister as soon as possible. Then Zhou Chen would be his brother-in-law, and he would have a reason to make demands.
"No, brother-in-law, I know my sister too well. Ordinary methods won't work on her. I promise you the next plan will succeed. Give me a chance to prove myself."
I tried my best to help you for the first time but failed. Doesn't that make me seem incompetent?
Brother-in-law, you wait here. Let me go back and think it over carefully. I promise I'll give you a satisfactory answer.
Zhu Minjie wanted to leave. Judging from his determined look, who knew what kind of crazy ideas he would come up with behind Zhou Chen's back?
In the end, Zhu Zhe will definitely be the one who gets hurt, which is not a situation Zhou Chen wants to see.
So Zhou Chen immediately stopped Zhu Minjie and said, "Of course I believe you, but rather than using a scheme to force things into a fait accompli to achieve my goals, I would rather gain your sister's approval through my own abilities."
"You shouldn't make things difficult for yourself. You just want to talk about work, right? I'll help you, it's not a big deal."
Upon hearing that Zhou Chen had agreed to find him a job, Zhu Minjie, who was about to leave, turned around and came back.
Zhu Minjie asked excitedly, "Really, brother-in-law, are you really willing to help me find a job?"
Zhou Chen nodded without saying anything more, and instead took out his phone and made a call.
"Old Lu, I heard your company is recruiting. How about I arrange someone for you? He's absolutely talented, and I'd like him to come to your company for some experience."
Zhou Chen deliberately spoke loudly, his purpose being to make Zhu Minjie hear him. He even praised him as a great talent, which was quite generous of him.
Hehe, Zhou Chen exchanged a few polite words with the other party and then hung up the phone, clearly indicating that everything had been arranged.
Zhu Minjie, standing beside him, didn't dare to even breathe loudly, afraid that his voice would disrupt their conversation. After all, this concerned his new job, so how could he not be nervous?
Zhou Chen looked at the nervous Zhu Minjie and said, "The person I just called is my childhood friend, Mr. Lü. His family is in the e-commerce business, and it's quite large."
After graduating from university, I started a company called Happy Logistics. If you don't know the company address, just search for it online. I won't take you there.
Organize your personal information. Go to the company for an interview at 10:00 AM tomorrow. I believe Mr. Lü will give you special consideration.
Whether you can establish yourself and showcase your talents after joining the company depends on you.
We're all family, so it's only right that I promote you. You said you didn't have the opportunity to showcase your talents, but now I've provided that platform. I hope you won't let me down.
Upon hearing Zhou Chen's words, Zhu Minjie repeatedly promised that he would do his best. He then went to prepare his interview materials. Clearly, he was very serious about this job, which was an opportunity for him, and certainly better than delivering packages.
Watching Zhu Minjie leave, Zhou Chen sneered twice. Some people are still too naive. They really believe everything I say.
Hopefully, this job will allow Zhu Minjie to focus on his work and stop bothering Zhu Zhe and causing trouble for Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen dialed the number again, and President Lü on the other end immediately said, "Young Master Zhou, I was pretty lenient with you earlier, wasn't I? What's going on? You actually want to send people to my company? This is clearly not right."
Zhou Chen chuckled and replied, "That's why I say you're smart. I do have some things I need your help with. Please give me face and arrange it accordingly."
I've been pursuing a girlfriend recently, and her younger brother wants me to arrange a job for him. I don't want to refuse, so I thought of you.
My younger brother, Zhu Minjie, is a bit arrogant and unrealistic. I'll take this opportunity to teach him a lesson and show him that a good job at a big company isn't so easy to get.
If he's really talented, then use him. If he's not, then let him go through a two-month internship and fire him for failing the internship. Don't give me any face then.
Of course, I won't let you suffer any losses; I'll pay your salary for these two months of internship.
Before Zhou Chen could finish speaking, the other party interrupted, "Young Master Zhou, you're slapping me in the face. How much money can you get in a two-month internship?"
I'll help you with this. Just buy me a drink sometime. When are we going to get together?
Zhou Chen nodded in agreement, saying, "Sure, I'm ready to come out for drinks anytime you call."
As for this matter, I'll leave it to you. Two months from now, regardless of whether Zhu Minjie stays on or is dismissed, please remember to call me and let me know.
After exchanging a few more polite words, the two hung up the phone. Zhou Chen thought that Zhu Minjie would most likely be fired; if he were truly capable, he wouldn't be in such a miserable state.
Moreover, Zhou Chen also said that Zhu Minjie was all talk and no action, and that he should teach him a lesson. I believe President Lü will understand what Zhou Chen meant.
However, Zhou Chen couldn't say the words of Zhu Minjie's dismissal, otherwise how could he explain it to Zhu Zhe and Zhu Minjie?
Haha, Zhou Chen's idea is quite clever. He's obviously using the guise of finding a job for Zhu Minjie to scam him.
It's because Zhu Minjie lacked the respect he deserved in the storyline, and repeatedly caused trouble for Zhu Zhe by taking advantage of his parents' doting on him. This is a good opportunity to teach him a lesson.
Zhou Chen wanted to let Zhu Minjie know that his sister was his sister, and that she would be his woman from now on, and that she deserved the respect due to her.
