Ye Feifei calling An Xiaohui her dog had angered everyone.

Xiao Lingyu did not have a good impression of such an ungrateful ingrate. That afternoon, she chased her out.

The backpackers originally planned to stay with An Xiaohui for one more night and had her percolate on her decision before leaving. However, Ye Feifei had completely offended their hostess. Furthermore, her character was already despised by everyone, so no one spoke up for her when she was chased away. Similarly, no one was willing to leave with her. It was still afternoon, so she had plenty of time to get to the county town to find a place to stay. Therefore, there was no need to worry about her safety on the road.

An Xiaohui was angry when Ye Feifei left, but she was still worried. She looked at Xiao Lingyu and asked, “Boss Xiao, is it really okay for Ye Feifei to leave alone? It’s going to be dark soon.”

Someone beside her said disapprovingly, “Xiaohui, you’re too kind. Ye Feifei treats you like this, yet you’re still worried about her?”

“That’s right. Xiaohui, you don’t have to worry about that. Ye Feifei is a backpacker too. She will be prepared.”

An Xiaohui shook her head and said, “I’m not worried about Ye Feifei. But if something happens to Ye Feifei, will boss Xiao be in trouble?” An Xiaohui turned her gaze to Xiao Lingyu.

Xiao Lingyu frowned and said, “As long as she doesn’t purposely find trouble, nothing will happen to her.”

Ye Feifei came from a rich family. She might be a backpacker, but she was beautiful and fair. An Xiaohui was worried that she might run into a pervert.

She said to her companions, “I’ve already thought it through. I’ll stay and work. Why don’t you all leave with Feifei?

“Even though Ye Feifei isn’t a good person, we came with her. We can’t just abandon her. If something happened to her, we wouldn’t feel good.”

Li Jian thought for a moment and said, “Alright, let’s leave now. Since we came together, let’s leave together. We can’t just let Ye Feifei leave alone. As Xiaohui said, if something happens to her, our conscience will be unsettled.”

However, some people were unwilling.

“Xiaohui, Li Jian, I don’t want to travel with someone like Ye Feifei. I feel uncomfortable when I see her.”

“Same here. If something really happens to her, it’s none of our business. Why should our conscience be uneasy?”

They split into two sides.

Some people really couldn’t stand Ye Feifei’s bad behavior, so they didn’t care about her.

However, some people were still worried. If something happened to Ye Feifei, they would be uneasy.

Xiao Lingyu looked at them but did not say anything.

Li Jian and the rest split into two groups. One group left to catch up with Ye Feifei. Once they sent her to a safe space, they would go their separate ways. As for what happened to Ye Feifei after that, it was none of their business.

Although it was a little dangerous for a girl to go out alone, Ye Feifei was a backpacker. She had to be responsible for her own safety and not rely on others. In addition, Ye Feifei’s family was rich. When she was tired, she could call her family to come and pick her up.

…

When Ye Feifei saw the people who caught up with her, her face immediately revealed a smug look.

‘Hmph, An Xiaohui, who do you think you are? See how many people have abandoned you and chosen me?’ She thus felt confident in herself.

However, she did not realize that these people were either following her from afar, or they were ahead of her by a large margin. They did not pay any attention to her at all.

When Ye Feifei saw the backpackers riding past her and didn’t even give her a glance, a hint of anger appeared on her face.

She gritted her teeth and shouted angrily, “Li Jian, what is the meaning of this? Why are you treating me like I don’t exist?”

Li Jian said coldly, “Ye Feifei, what more do you want from us?” With that, he sped up and quickly left ye Feifei.

Ye Feifei’s face was pale. She was angry and helpless, but she felt more or less safe in her heart.

When she came out of Taoyuan Village in a huff and saw how alone she was, she felt goosebumps all over her body.

She was scared. However, she was too arrogant to turn back. Turning back would be to admit defeat. Why should she admit defeat?

…

The rest did stay behind to accompany An Xiaohui. However, instead of discussing An Xiaohui’s decision, they talked about Ye Feifei’s character.

“Tsk tsk, we’ve been traveling with Ye Feifei for so long. We thought she merely had a princess temper. We have no idea she is such an awful person.”

“Exactly. All this while, Xiaohui has been treating her like a sister, but in her eyes, Xiaohui is just a free nanny. How shameless Ye Feifei must be!”

“Xiaohui is too kind. Even though they just had a falling out, she’s still worried about Ye Feifei’s safety.”

“Xiao Hui is just soft-hearted!”

…

On the other side, Xiao Lingyu brought An Xiaohui to the company’s meeting room. She asked directly, “I heard from my grandmother that you want to stay and work here, right?”

An Xiaohui nodded and said, “Yes.”

“May I know why?” Xiao Lingyu asked, “You have to know that my company currently doesn’t have many employees. It’s empty. Plus, my company is built in a rural village. For many university graduates, there is no future here.

“I heard from my grandmother that you graduated from South University and studied human resources management. It shouldn’t be hard for you to find a job in a big city, right?”

An Xiaohui asked, “Boss Xiao, I heard that you graduated from Nan University too?”

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “That’s right.”

“In that case, you are my senior!” An Xiaohui said excitedly.

Xiao Lingyu was stunned for a moment before nodding and agreeing, “Yes, you’re right.” Back then, Xiao Lingyu was admitted to South University as the top scorer in the county. However, her results were average when compared to the whole nation. Therefore, Xiao Lingyu wasn’t really that famous at South University. She was just an average student.

“Boss Xiao, the reason I chose to stay is that I think the company has a bright future,” said An Xiaohui. “Boss Xiao’s company business direction is very clear. You also have a detailed future plan and a clear strategic plan. Taoyuan Village has beautiful mountains and rivers. With some publicity, I believe that many people will yearn to come to this paradise.”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “From what you said, I can hear that you think highly of the company’s future development.” Then, she looked at An Xiaohui.

An Xiaohui asked with some doubt, “Boss Xiao, what’s wrong? Don’t you trust me?”

Xiao Lingyu shook his head and said, “No, it’s not that I don’t trust you. It’s just that I think you’re too soft-hearted.”

An Xiaohui was a little dumbfounded and didn’t understand why.

“Too soft-hearted?”

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Yes. People who are too soft-hearted will be affected by the external world and their subjective thoughts. And many times, they can’t give a clear judgment.

“This is a big weakness for people in HR. To a company, human resource is very important. A wrong judgment can easily cause the company’s loss.”

“Ah?” An Xiaohui was suddenly a little surprised.

This made her think of the reason why she failed when she applied for a job at a big company in the past. Every examiner had told her that she was not suitable for this job. But no one had explained to her why. With the analysis from Xiao Lingyu, she understood the crux of her problem.

An Xiaohui said with some difficulty, “But boss Xiao, I really like my major. I also want to find a job that suits my major.”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “Listen to me. It’s not that you’re not suitable for human resources. It’s just that you have to overcome this weakness.

“Of course, this doesn’t mean that I want you to forgo your kindness.

“We have to answer to our conscience, and when our conscience is silent, we’re being kind. However, being servile to someone unconditionally is not being kind. Don’t you agree?” Xiao Lingyu paused for a moment and comforted her, “However, this is because you have just graduated and have yet to experience the world. In the future, you will have a better judgment.”

An Xiaohui immediately understood. She nodded and said, “Yes, boss Xiao, I understand. In the future, I will definitely improve and work hard.”

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Yes, that’s good!”

An Xiaohui’s eyes lit up, and she said emotionally, “Boss Xiao, do that mean I can stay and work with you?”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Of course. But…” Xiao Lingyu said seriously, “You will have a three-month probation period.”

“I will not let you down!” An Xiaohui said confidently.
