Chapter 1709: The Radio News
“This is the personnel arrangement of your company. I’m not in a position to intervene.” Yang Ming was very satisfied with how adaptive Zhang Laibao was to the situation. It now seemed that Sun Kun’s future status in the taxi company could be fully guaranteed.
At least Sun Kun would no longer be treated unfairly. With his relations.h.i.+p with Yang Ming, even if Sun Kun was not treated like a master, he would at least have special treatment.
” Hehe, I don’t know if Mr. Sun Kun will accept the supervisor position?” Zhang Laibao turned to Sun Kun when he saw that Yang Ming had no opinion. “Mr. Sun Kun, don’t worry. We definitely won’t let you work for nothing. We’ll pay you every month. So, I’ll propose an amount. Three thousand yuan per month, how about it? ”
“Three thousand yuan… This…” Sun Kun was in disbelief for a while. Isn’t this change too great? Typically, it would be considered a glory for ordinary taxi drivers to take up a supervisor position even if they were unpaid!
He was recognized by the company and he could personally partic.i.p.ate in the company’s plan to reimage. How could ordinary people achieve this? But now, not only could he partic.i.p.ate in it, but he even gets paid three thousand yuan a month for it. This was like a dream for Sun Kun!
Even if he worked tirelessly for a month, he would only have five thousand yuan left after deducting the fuel money and expenses. Just by being a supervisor, he would get three thousand yuan. How could he not be excited?
Seeing that Sun Kun didn’t respond, Zhang Laibao thought that Sun Kun felt the amount was too little. He said hurriedly, “Three thousand is indeed a little low. Five thousand then. Five thousand a month. How about that, Mr. Sun Kun? Are you willing to be the supervisor of our Dade Elegant Taxi Company? ”
“Of course I am willing to…” Sun Kun didn’t expect Zhang Laibao to increase his salary to five thousand yuan during his brief hesitation. He nodded in agreement hastily.
“Great. Then from now on, Mr. Sun Kun will be the company’s supervisor. I will post the photo of Mr. Sun Kun in the company management’s column,” Zhang Laibao said while feeling relieved that Sun Kun agreed.
Zhang Laibao found it really worthwhile to spend five thousand yuan a month for his peace of mind. He originally wanted to waive Sun Kun’s expenses but found it quite inappropriate. Also, he would be criticized. Therefore, he thought of the idea of compensating Sun Kun by awarding him a supervisor position. It also allowed Sun Kun to partic.i.p.ate in the company’s system development which in turn would rea.s.sure Yang Ming. Indeed, it was killing two birds with one stone.
Zhang Laibao said in his heart. I am really a genius to think of such a wonderful idea. I’m too brilliant!
“Well, now that things are settled, I won’t muddle here anymore,” Yang Ming laughed and said. “Zhang Laibao, I hope you remember the promises you have made today.”
“Mr. Yang, please rest a.s.sured… To be honest, I really don’t want to lose my job…” Zhang Laibao smiled bitterly, “I dare not offend you and Brother Bao!”
Yang Ming smiled and said to Sun Kun, “Brother Kun, I’m leaving then. You are staying here. We can contact each other by phone if there’s anything!”
Sun Kun gave Yang Ming a grateful glance and nodded heavily. Thanks to Yang Ming, he not only saved some expenses for today’s matter, but he also had new income every month. This made Sun Kun, who had a tight life, finally have some money in hand. His son’s school fees were not a problem anymore. If this continued, he would have enough money in hand by the time he was required to pay school fees.
In fact, these things were no trouble at all for Yang Ming. After walking out of the taxi company, Yang Ming got in the car and looked at the time. It was past two o’clock. At this time, there was nothing to do. It was too late to return to university to attend cla.s.ses and there was still a long time before his date with Sun Jie at night.
Yang Ming rarely had leisure time where he had nothing to do. He enjoyed the tranquility of the moment by turning on the radio and driving the car by the seaside.
“This morning, Xie Wenjin, Liu Zhaojun and Qi Zhide are on trial for an alleged rape attempt. They were reported to have intentionally injured the Nightless Club Hotel’s waitress, Shen Yuxi, who is now crippled. Their trial is taking place in Song Jiang City Intermediate People’s Court.
“The prosecutors allege that the defendant Xie Wenjin along with the other two defendants Liu Zhaojun and Qi Zhide had followed the Nightless Club Hotel’s waitress, Shen Yuxi to an apartment building in XX community at around nine o’clock at night on the day X of X XX and attempted to rape her… ”
Yang Ming frowned and increased the volume of the radio slightly.
Shen Yuxi… This was a name that Yang Ming had almost forgotten. The news of the case trial on the radio reminded Yang Ming of the young and sweet waitress in the Nightless Club.
The only time the two people interacted was during the attempted shooting of Sun Jie at the Nightless Club. Later, it turned out that it was Tian Long who had ordered the person to do it. Shen Yuxi was not harmed at that time.
Logically, Yang Ming and Shen Yuxi would not have anything more to do with each other afterward. But this case made Yang Ming pay attention to this name again.
Liu Zhaojun, what a familiar name. Yang Ming had already noticed that he was not a good person, but he did not expect Liu Zhaojun to do such a thing.
Yang Ming sighed, took out the phone and dialed Xia Bingbao’s phone number.
“Yang Ming? What happened? Why are you calling me?” Whenever Xia Bingbao received a call from Yang Ming, it was always because Yang Ming had some issues. Otherwise, Yang Ming would never call him if he was fine.
“Help me look into the case of Shen Yuxi that was opened for court trial today. Did anyone intervene?” Yang Ming told Xia Bingbao.
“Did anyone intervene? What do you mean? Do you want to intervene with me or what?” Xia Bingbao asked after he was stunned for a moment.
“It’s nothing. It’s just that I have seen the three defendants. None of them are good people but their family background is not small. I am afraid that someone will intervene in the trial,” Yang Ming said.
“I got it.” Xia Bingbao breathed a sigh of relief. This kind of thing was not a big deal, and it wouldn’t violate any principles. If they were three wicked people, it was not a big deal to give them a heavier sentence. It would be difficult if Yang Ming made him sentence an innocent man as guilty.
Yang Ming didn’t say anything more and hung up. He believed that this was not a difficult thing for Xia Bingbao.
After starting the car, Yang Ming rushed to the First People’s Hospital of Song Jiang City. He was not sure why, but he felt uncomfortable at the thought of Shen Yuxi being in a wheelchair all her life.
It should have been the best time of her life and filled with enjoyment, but she could only helplessly sit in a wheelchair.
It was even more difficult for Yang Ming to accept, especially considering he had seen Shen Yuxi before when she was still healthy. Making this call was also Yang Ming’s intention to let those who hurt Shen Yuxi get the punishment they deserved.
After parking his car in the hospital’s parking lot, Yang Ming realized that he didn’t know Shen Yuxi’s ward number.
He smiled bitterly and dialed Bao Sanli’s phone. Bao Sanli had always followed up on Shen Yuxi’s matter.
“Brother Yang, you’re looking for me?” Bao Sanli’s voice came from the other end. He had answered his phone in no time.
“Baozi, do you know which ward of the First Hospital Shen Yuxi is in?” Yang Ming asked.
“Shen Yuxi?” Bao Sanli was stunned for a moment, “Brother Yang, she has already been discharged from the hospital. She also appeared in court today to testify. I accompanied her there…
“Her legs have recovered?” Yang Ming was also stunned.
“No… She’s sitting in a wheelchair.” Bao Sanli sighed, “The hospital has no other way. The external wound has been cured, but there is a problem with the nerves of her legs. It can’t be helped.”
“Have they decided the verdict?” Yang Ming asked.
“Not yet. The trial will continue next week,” Bao Sanli said. “Xie Wenjin’s family has some capability. They asked some people to pressure us, but we are not cowards either. As the president of a security company, I will also pressure them! ”
” En, I have gotten someone to look into it. Don’t worry, we’ll not let Xie Wenjin and the others go,” Yang Ming said. “Baozi, please take care of this matter. Why haven’t you told me about it?”
“Brother Yang, you are too busy. You just came back yesterday. I haven’t had the time to mention it!” Bao Sanli smiled bitterly and said. “Brother Yang, are you looking for Miss Shen?”
” En, I want to see her,” said Yang Ming.
Throughout this period of time that they spent together, Bao Sanli had also gradually realized that Shen Yuxi was not Yang Ming’s lover. Even Shen Yuxi herself had acknowledged that it was just a one-sided crush.
However, Bao Sanli did not neglect Shen Yuxi because of this. He was still very enthusiastic in helping Shen Yuxi to recover and win the lawsuit.
Chapter 1710: A Visit
Anyway, whether it was for private or official reasons, Bao Sanli would do his best. Shen Yuxi was an employee of the Nightless Club, so Bao Sanli must take care of her.
Although he had previously misunderstood that Shen Yuxi was Yang Ming’s lover, Shen Yuxi had finally admitted that it was just a one-sided crush. Seeing Shen Yuxi’s honesty and purity, Bao Sanli gradually started to like this little girl. Of course, it was not love; it was just a feeling of kins.h.i.+p.
“She has been discharged from the hospital and is recuperating at home now. I will send her home immediately after the court is adjourned,” said Bao Sanli.
“I see…” Yang Ming suddenly felt embarra.s.sed. He didn’t even know about this, “Where is her home?”
“In an old neighborhood not far from the Nightless Club. How about I take you there? Brother Yang, where are you?” Bao Sanli asked.
“I’m by the sea. I’ll go to the Nightless Club, and then you take me there,” said Yang Ming.
“Okay, I’ll go to the Nightless Club now to wait for you,” said Bao Sanli.
Bao Sanli was sincerely happy that Yang Ming thought of and would visit Shen Yuxi. He sent his best wishes to Shen Yuxi. How could Bao Sanli not be aware of this little girl’s thoughts?
Shen Yuxi had expressed her feelings in front of him more than once, but she was full of remorse. Before she was paralyzed, Shen Yuxi still had some confidence in herself. But now, Shen Yuxi did not expect Yang Ming to like her at all.
As this was the case, Shen Yuxi’s biggest wish was for Yang Ming to visit her. However, she also understood that she and Yang Ming were not close to begin with. If her legs were not broken, maybe something might have happened between her and Yang Ming one day under the flirtatious atmosphere and rumors. But now, she was just a burden. How could Yang Ming like her now?
The more he saw her low self-worth, the more Bao Sanli pitied this girl. However, as a subordinate, he could not say certain things to Yang Ming. He could only help Shen Yuxi help care for her as much as possible. He also encouraged her to not give up. Perhaps one day she could stand again.
When Yang Ming heard that Shen Yuxi’s legs still did not improve, he lost his previous happy mood and became a little gloomy. He turned off the car’s radio and drove towards the Nightless Club.
Yang Ming had rarely visited the Nightless Club during this period of time. He parked his car in the Nightless Club’s parking lot. Yang Ming did not get out of the car. Instead, he called Bao Sanli.
“Brother Yang, have you arrived? I have arrived in the parking lot with Little w.a.n.g,” Bao Sanli said.
“Little w.a.n.g?” Yang Ming was stunned for a while.
“It’s your driver, w.a.n.g Lin,” Bao Sanli said. “I asked him to drive so that he can recognize the door.”
” Oh, it’s him,” Yang Ming suddenly realized. “I’m also in the parking lot in the northwest corner.”
“I saw your car. I’m heading right over,” said Bao Sanli.
Bao Sanli hung up the phone and said to Little w.a.n.g in the driver’s seat, “Go to the northwest corner. Brother Yang is there.”
“Okay, President Bao.” Little w.a.n.g nodded politely and started the car.
Little w.a.n.g was extremely excited at this moment! After he returned to the company after completing Yang Ming’s matter in the morning, Little President Liao kept beating around the bush to question some things.
However, it was inevitable. Little w.a.n.g came and went in a very short time. This made Little Liao suspect that he was not working for Yang Ming anymore. This made Little w.a.n.g very depressed.
Although Little w.a.n.g pretended to be unfathomable as they were all confidential matters that couldn’t be talked about, Xiao w.a.n.g knew that Little Liao still had some suspicions.
Just when Little w.a.n.g was feeling depressed, Bao Sanli suddenly visited the vehicle car team in the afternoon. Little Liao thought that Bao Sanli was looking for him to drive, and he was very happy. He did not forget to proudly toss a disdainful glance at Little w.a.n.g.
However, Bao Sanli didn’t even glance at Little Liao and went directly to Little w.a.n.g to inform him that Brother Yang had some matters He asked him to drive out. This made Little Liao feel jealous and helpless at the same time.
Now it seemed that Little w.a.n.g had undoubtedly gained favor. Little Liao was thinking that he had even suspected Little w.a.n.g in the morning, and he regretted it for a while. It seemed that he must build a good relations.h.i.+p with Little w.a.n.g in the future.
Yang Ming stepped down from the car. He saw Little w.a.n.g and nodded to him before saying, “Little w.a.n.g, you may get out of the car. I can go with Bao Sanli. This is my car key. I hit the front and some paint is chipped. Please take care of it. ”
As he said these words, he threw the car keys to Little w.a.n.g.
“Okay, Brother Yang. Rest a.s.sured, I will take good care of it,” Little w.a.n.g guaranteed as he took the car keys and nodded. Being able to help the leader repair his car was not something an ordinary person could do. Xiao w.a.n.g was quite happy to have Yang Ming’s trust.
“You pay for it first and just claim the expenses from me later,” said Bao Sanli.
“Okay, President Bao,” Little w.a.n.g responded and got on Yang Ming’s BMW.
Bao Sanli also changed to the driver’s seat of the Audi A8 while Yang Ming sat in the front seat.
Little w.a.n.g waited for Yang Ming’s car to leave before he followed suit. Little w.a.n.g was only afraid that there would be nothing to do. As long as there was something to do, he was very happy. He thought that when he drove Yang Ming’s BMW back to the company’s fleet later, Little Liao would envy him for some time.
Thinking about his gradual change in status, Xiao w.a.n.g was joyful for no reason.
……
“Baozi, have you soothed Shen Yuxi’s parents?” Yang Ming asked after getting in the car.
“Her parents are fine. After all, this incident did not happen in our Entertainment City, but in the corridor of Shen Yuxi’s house. So relatively speaking, we have no responsibility,” Bao Sanli said. “And we took the initiative to pay for the medical expenses which made Shen Yuxi’s parents very grateful. They thank us for paying the medical expenses all the time.”
“How much should Xie Wenjin compensate?” Yang Ming nodded and asked.
“We are suing for compensation of five million, but it will not be that much. The final verdict will be one million at most. That is the most ideal,” Bao Sanli said. “But Xie Wenjin’s father declared that he would spend his money to buy some favors, and he would not compensate even a single cent to Shen Yuxi. ”
“Is it? He said so?” Yang Ming’s expression immediately became somber after listening to Bao Sanli’s words. He did not expect that Xie Wenjin’s family to still be so arrogant and have no regrets at this time.
“Brother Yang, don’t worry. Although he said so, I can guarantee that he can’t send the money out even if he has it. Who will dare to accept his money? We are not mere cowards,” said Bao Sanli.
Yang Ming was not afraid of him spending money to buy favors, but he was annoyed by his att.i.tude, “I’m asking if that is really what he said?”
Bao Sanli nodded. Xie Wenjin’s father had said so when the court adjourned today.
“Since he dares to say this, he will pay the price that he deserves,” Yang Ming said calmly. “I will not let him go.”
“Brother Yang, should I find a few brothers…?” Bao Sanli asked after hearing Yang Ming’s words.
“There’s no need. Xie Wenjin’s father is not an ordinary person. It will cause you trouble if you do it. They will sue you in turn,” Yang Ming waved and said. “However, there will be no such trouble if I do it. Wait till the next hearing. Hmph Hmph… ”
Bao Sanli did not know why Yang Ming had to wait for the next hearing, but he nodded and did not say anything more as he trusted Yang Ming.
The car parked at the gate of an old-fas.h.i.+oned community. In this kind of community, there was no designated parking s.p.a.ce and the car could only be parked by the roadside.
“Brother Yang, this is the place. We have to walk in,” said Bao Sanli.
“En,” Yang Ming nodded and got out of the car with Bao Sanli.
After pa.s.sing through the neighborhood, they came to an old residential building. Bao Sanli went upstairs first, followed by Yang Ming.
There was a moldy smell mixed with the smell of vegetable leaves and pickled vegetables in the corridor. This was a typical old-fas.h.i.+oned house. As one could imagine, the people who lived here were not rich. Those who were rich would have already moved away long ago.
