Chapter 108: A Piece of Cake

“Minister Yu, why haven’t we received any response yet regarding the promotion request for ‘Dream’s Charm’ that we submitted this morning?” Lei Lei asked.

Yu Fangling looked up, her tone neither resentful nor warm as she replied flatly, “Director Wei isn’t here; how are we supposed to promote it without him?”

“You can’t promote it without him?” Lei Lei snapped in frustration. Suddenly, she caught sight of Chen Yuyi.

Suppressing her irritation, she quickly approached him. “Oh, Mr. Chen, what are you doing here?”

Chen Yuyi looked up, smiling gently. “Starting today, I’m officially an employee here.”

“What? You’re actually an employee of our company now? That’s fantastic! But why are you in the marketing department? If you were to join, you should be with our R&D team,” Lei Lei said, her surprise mingled with slight disappointment.

“Does it really matter? After all, we’re all employees of the same company,” Chen Yuyi replied with a light chuckle.

Lei Lei laughed quietly twice. At that moment, Yu Fangling glanced at the two of them with a hint of suspicion, wondering if this was the person who had helped the R&D department solve their perfume problem.

Maintaining her composure, she turned to Lei Lei and said, “Director Wei is absent, and he has cut off all our sales channels. We just found out about this. Our marketing department is extremely busy dealing with these channel issues right now. As for promoting ‘Dream’s Charm,’ we simply don’t have the manpower at the moment.”

Lei Lei’s cheeks flushed with anger. “Yeah, you’re so busy—you’re busy playing games! I won’t argue with you anymore; I’m going to speak directly to the president.”

After saying this, she smiled sweetly at Chen Yuyi. “Mr. Chen, how about I ask the president to transfer you to our R&D department?”

Chen Yuyi shook his head with a smile. “You guys just focus on R&D. Besides, if I join your department, who’ll help you sell such excellent perfumes?”

He stood, casting a glance at Yu Fangling. This woman seemed to be deliberately stirring trouble, but it didn’t matter—she was just a refined puppet, incapable of causing any real disruption.

“You say there’s no one in the sales department to promote it? Then let me handle it!” Chen Yuyi proposed.

“Oh, so that’s your plan. On behalf of the R&D department, thank you, Mr. Chen,” Lei Lei said, her plump face flushed with trust and admiration. She lowered her head, as if afraid Chen Yuyi might see her expression.

Turning back to Yu Fangling, Chen Yuyi continued, “You said our company’s channels have been cut off. What channels does our company actually have?”

“Yes, Mr. Chen, you’re here now—you should go try. I have confidence in you!” Lei Lei said bluntly, shooting a sharp look at Yu Fangling. It seemed the marketing and R&D departments had long-standing conflicts.

“Do you, a newcomer, really think you can reconnect these channels and find clients on your own?” Yu Fangling sneered inwardly. Those sales channels had been established by Wei Jiadong through his mysterious and extensive network. Now that he’s cut them off, who else could possibly restore them?

She didn’t believe this man had such ability. Although he might have helped the R&D department solve their problem, sales was a different matter entirely; how much could he really shake things up?

Chen Yuyi smiled softly. “If I do have that ability, would you give me your position? Or perhaps you could just resign.”

He wanted to take this opportunity to clear out those deliberately obstructive people.

Yu Fangling gritted her teeth. “If you really have that ability, I’ll give you this position. Resign if you want.” She wasn’t too concerned about this job anyway—she had Dong Ge now.

“Then hurry and bring it over!” Lei Lei said impatiently.

“What?” Yu Fangling asked.

“The list of distributors and clients,” Lei Lei replied. She was thoughtful, wanting Chen Yuyi to have the contacts rather than blindly searching for clients.

Yu Fangling glanced coldly at her. The list of distributors and clients wasn’t a secret, and these people’s attitudes were all controlled by Wei Jiadong. She didn’t care what this newcomer could actually accomplish.

Without hesitation, she tossed a list to Lei Lei.

Lei Lei immediately handed the list to Chen Yuyi. “Mr. Chen, you can start by trying the clients on this list. I have faith in you!”

Squeezing her fist in encouragement, Lei Lei looked hopeful.

Chen Yuyi smiled faintly. “Don’t worry, I won’t let you down. After all, I did contribute to this perfume.”

“Good. We’ll be waiting for your good news. I’m going back now to tell the sisters in R&D that Mr. Chen is personally running errands for our perfume!” Lei Lei said cheerfully as she bounced back to the R&D department.

Then Chen Yuyi turned to Yu Fangling.

“Remember what you said. When I return, be ready to resign.”

If Chen Yuyi had more power in the company, he would have kicked this woman out already, but he was still new and held little authority.

Yu Fangling sneered in anger. “Don’t think you can act arrogantly just because you’re related to the president. If you don’t find a single client today, I don’t think you’ll have the face to stay here.”

“Don’t worry. If I fail to find a client, you’ll never see me here again,” Chen Yuyi said, then ignored her, grabbed a few samples, and left the company.

First, he glanced at the list, spotting the Bai family’s name right away.

There was no way the Bai family’s channels were cut off.

He immediately called Bai Lang.

“Brother Yu, this really isn’t my fault. Previously, as you requested, I put Miss Shen’s cosmetics on the shelves at Bai family’s warehouse, but sales have been disappointing. Of course, I didn’t ask them to remove it. It was my father’s order, and I had no choice,” Bai Lang explained.

“Enough. I don’t want to hear excuses. Come out immediately. I’m waiting for you.”

After giving Bai Lang his current location, Chen Yuyi waited.

Going from client to client was a waste of time. He planned to leverage some special contacts in Jiangcheng, like Qi Yun at Longchi Villa. This woman had extensive connections, and with her help, opening a sales channel for the perfume would be a piece of cake.

Bai Lang hurriedly arrived.

“Brother Yu, what’s your plan?”

“I’ll personally meet your father at the Bai family later. For now, we’re heading to Longchi Villa to see Qi Yun. With her connections, we can find plenty of clients.”

“Got it.” Bai Lang quickly drove Chen Yuyi to Longchi Villa.

Qi Yun was surprised to see Chen Yuyi. Covering her mouth, she found it hard to believe he remembered her.

“I’m here today to trouble you with something,” Chen Yuyi said straightforwardly. “You know I’m part of the Shen family now. My wife’s company is having some trouble, but I can’t use too many tricks. So I came to ask for your help.”

“Mr. Chen—no, Master Chen—please command me. I will do everything in my power for you,” Qi Yun said earnestly.

“Master?” Chen Yuyi smiled slightly but didn’t comment.

He placed the client list and perfume samples in front of Qi Yun.

“See if you can handle as many of these companies or individuals as possible. These perfume bottles are samples.”

Qi Yun didn’t look at the list immediately. Instead, she picked up a bottle and sniffed it, then stood there stunned.

Chen Yuyi smiled faintly. This perfume contained a rare fragrant ingredient; it was no wonder it was so captivating. Those so-called channel clients, after smelling it, would probably beg Xin Zhu Company to supply them.

“What kind of perfume is this? It’s incredible!” Qi Yun finally regained her composure.

“It has a special ingredient I added. What do you think the scent would be like?” Chen Yuyi smiled softly.

Qi Yun couldn’t contain her excitement. “Miss Shen is truly fortunate to have your support. I believe it won’t be long before her company becomes a cosmetics giant.”

“Well, I don’t really care what the company becomes. I just want to make her happy.”

Qi Yun looked at him with envy. “If I had half of Miss Shen’s fortune, my life would be complete.”

Then she spoke seriously. “Rest assured, Master Chen. As long as I launch this perfume, companies will be scrambling for sales rights. I’ll get to work immediately.”

“Good.” Chen Yuyi nodded. “Once this is done, I won’t treat you unfairly. If you want any special elixirs, I can grant you one.”

Qi Yun was delighted and immediately stood, bowing respectfully. “Thank you, Master Chen!” She knew this opportunity couldn’t be missed and wasted no time.

Meanwhile, Bai Lang scratched his head in confusion. He still didn’t understand this “Master” business. “Brother Yu, when did you become a master?” For all his playboy antics, he had no clue about Chen Yuyi’s true identity.

Chen Yuyi and Qi Yun exchanged knowing smiles but said nothing. Though not a secret, this was an unspoken understanding among Jiangcheng’s wealthy elite. They feared speaking too much and offending Master Chen, which they could never afford.

So, aside from those who had met Chen Yuyi in person under his true identity, no one knew he was the Master Chen.

After leaving Longchi Villa, Chen Yuyi and Bai Lang headed to the Bai family residence. Whether or not the Bai family stocked Xin Zhu’s products wasn’t the priority now—Chen Yuyi wanted to see how the Bai family could be influenced by that so-called “Demonic Overlord.”

As soon as they entered the Bai family villa, they saw a black executive van pulling out. The windows were sealed tight, giving off an aura of mystery...
