Chapter 856: Chapter 856: [Extra] Decided by Drawing Lots
Love has never been about demands or harshness, nor about mutual restraint; love is doing your best, loving what you love, and all that is within me, love what it thinks.
…
With nothing much to do over the summer break, Sheng Ning’an plans to intern at the company.
At the dining table, Sheng Ning’an shares her plan with the family.
Sheng Yan Cheng immediately speaks up, “An’an, come intern at Grandpa’s company. I’ll arrange an assistant position for you, so you can be by my side every day, and I’ll pay you double the salary. After all, the company will be yours in the future, so you might as well get familiar with the work ahead of time.”
“No way,” Sheng Chuyi interjects, “She has no experience at all, and going directly to be your assistant will make it hard for others to accept. It’s better for her to start from the ground up; tomorrow she should come to work at my company, and I’ll have someone arrange a suitable position for her.”
“My granddaughter will inherit my company in the future, so of course she should go to my company,” Sheng Yan Cheng retorts unhappily. It’s rare to get a chance to spend time with his granddaughter, and now his son wants to take that away from him.
Does he not understand respecting the old and caring for the young?
Sheng Chuyi: “Your company is not suitable for her internship.”
Most of the employees in Mr. Sheng’s company are old staff, and there’s a lot of internal strife. A newcomer interning for a short time would mostly end up running errands, finding it hard to learn anything valuable.
Whereas, Zhao Yi Technology has a younger employee base, offering more learning opportunities for newcomers.
“Nonsense, why wouldn’t my company be suitable for her? It’s just an internship, isn’t it? If you think being an assistant isn’t right, I can arrange another position that suits her better.”
With thousands of positions in his company, he doesn’t believe he can’t find one that fits his granddaughter.
Sheng Chuyi disapproved of Mr. Sheng’s method and said, “She wants to intern to learn, and if she goes to your company, can you guarantee that no one will know her identity?”
Definitely not, and what if her identity is found out and someone takes advantage?
Mr. Sheng scoffed, “So what if people know her identity? Getting familiar with the staff early means no one with half a brain would dare to bully her.”
Sheng Chuyi glanced towards Sheng Ning’an and said, “She knows nothing now, and if she goes to the company, people will only flatter and fawn over her. What do you think she’ll learn from that? If she’s just going there to kill time, she might as well stay at home.”
“Is it as severe as you say?” Sheng Yan Cheng brushed it off, “She can learn slowly, what’s the rush? Besides, my granddaughter is so smart, if all else fails, I’ll teach her myself. How can I not teach her?”
He felt his son just wanted to snatch her away.
Seeing them arguing over her, Sheng Ning’an quickly spoke up, “Grandpa, Dad, please stop arguing. I think my dad makes a good point. I don’t know anything yet, so it’s better for me to start from the basics.”
Seeing Mr. Sheng wanting to say something, Sheng Ning’an quickly added, “Of course, it doesn’t necessarily mean I have to go to my dad’s company.”
“Exactly, we won’t go to your dad’s company, we’ll go to Grandpa’s company,” Mr. Sheng eagerly agreed, “If you want to start from the grassroots, we’ll start from the grassroots. Grandpa will find a reliable person to guide you, and it’ll definitely be easier than going to your dad’s company.”
“Grandpa, I know you’re looking out for me, but I want to intern to experience life and learn something along the way, a bit of hard work is fine. As for which company to go to, I think it’s all the same, why don’t we draw lots to decide?”
It’s hard to choose, so drawing lots is the most fair!
