Getting Rich Overnight, Starting From a Multiple-Choice Question - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: The Multiple-Choice Question Reappears

After leaving the cafe, Ye Feng did not take Li Xin’s threat seriously.

If he wanted to fight, so be it.

In any case, if Hedilao wanted to expand, they would definitely affect Prosperous Flavor’s slice of the cake. Thus, even if they did not bring this topic out into the open today, the two restaurants would still fight.

…

The next day, Ye Feng arrived at the office building of the Maple Forest Company early in the morning.

The headhunting company was very efficient. Yesterday, they had already decided on several suitable candidates. The main reason was that the person Ye Feng wanted to recruit wasn’t an actual executive. Otherwise, the process wouldn’t have been this fast.

After receiving the name list, Ye Feng asked them to come for an interview today.

Ye Feng sat in his office and flipped through the resumes sent by the headhunting company.

Based on these resumes alone, the people who were coming for the interview were basically those who had some skills. Most of them had been in middle management positions in small- and medium-sized companies, especially the two people who applied for the job of secretary. One of them had even been the Assistant General Manager in one the top 100 enterprises in Lu Province.

He wondered how the headhunting company got their hands on someone like that.

The interview was scheduled to be held one round after another. There was still about an hour before the first interview.

Just as Ye Feng was about to go out for a meal, his phone suddenly vibrated.

His heart skipped a beat. Then, he quickly took out his phone and looked over.

“This is the second stage. This is a serious multiple-choice question ——”

“Which will you choose from the three options below?”

“1: A top-notch sea queen[1] who can multitask.”

“2: An absolutely reliable and rich loli who won’t reject anything.”

“3. A particularly capable and beautiful secretary with black, silky hair.”

???

Three huge question marks gradually appeared above Ye Feng’s head.

Was this called serious?

The style of this multiple-choice question was getting stranger over time.

The strange options simply diluted his joy of seeing the multiple-choice question again.

“You f*cking… did you go to some strange place to further your studies?”

Ye Feng was a little speechless as he looked at the three options again.

Well, he decided to cancel out the sea queen option. Otherwise, he might not even know when she got engaged to someone else.

As for the loli… As the saying goes, nine out of ten lolis were rich, but what was the use of having such a person around?

Thus, the only option left was Option 3.

“A particularly capable and beautiful secretary with black, silky hair.”

Being capable was a good thing.

Ye Feng thought to himself.

There was a saying that if there were things to do, the secretary would do it. However, if there was nothing to do, he could do the secretary —— He cancelled out the last sentence.

A capable and beautiful secretary would definitely make things easier for him.

In fact, there would be times when he didn’t even need to take action.

After making his choice, the multiple-choice question slowly disappeared.

Only then did Ye Feng remember that his first candidate was applying for the role of secretary.

“Then, I should be able to meet that capable and beautiful secretary soon.”

“To be evaluated as capable by the multiple-choice question… I wonder exactly how capable she is.”

While waiting, Ye Feng began to ponder why the multiple-choice question had suddenly appeared.

Everything had a pattern. The multiple-choice questions would not disappear for no reason, nor would they appear for no reason.

As he carefully recalled, Ye Feng noticed the first sentence.

“The second stage…”

This phrase was very interesting. It definitely didn’t appear there to increase the word count.

“What do they mean by the second stage?”

Ye Feng fell into deep thought.

A moment later, he suddenly had an idea.

“The Maple Forest Company!”

The stage where the multiple-choice question appeared was right before he interviewed his first employee.

The employees represented the start of the company’s operations.

Then, did the second stage mean that the company would start to run?

That made sense.

The first stage was to start a business, while the second stage was to start a company. This logic was perfect and self-consistent.

Furthermore, based on the situation when the multiple-choice questions first appeared, the multiple-choice questions this time would probably disappear as well.

When the questions appeared again, he would reach the third stage!

“The third stage… What is that?”

Ye Feng had a very good habit of not thinking about something if he couldn’t figure it out.

He was starting to look forward to the options that would be given by the multiple-choice question tomorrow.

Logically speaking, every multiple-choice question would solve a difficult problem.

…

At the Link Trade Building…

A woman checked the address on her phone and walked in.

Dong, dong, dong.

The sound of someone knocking on the door could be heard. Ye Feng sat up straight and said, “Please come in.”

The door opened, and a beautiful woman appeared before Ye Feng.

The white top matched with the white long skirt made her look extremely fresh, like a blooming jasmine flower.

Beneath her clothes, her pair of enchanting long legs swayed. Meanwhile, her exquisite face made one’s heart sway.

This was a beauty who could score above nine points in all aspects, especially…

A phrase suddenly popped up in Ye Feng’s mind. “Women with small breasts are evil, while women with large breasts are kind.”

From the looks of it… she was ridiculously kind!

“Be steady!”

“Women are all demons!”

“Women will only affect the speed at which I can draw my sword!”

“A woman is a stumbling block on a man’s successful path… Oh, that’s not right.”

Ye Feng forced himself into a calm state and started his first sentence.

“Liang… Liang Yue, right? Please have a seat.”

She waved her long legs in an alluring manner as she walked.

Then, Liang Yue sat on the bench, a trace of surprise flashing across her eyes. Accompanied by this surprise was a trace of barely noticeable joy.

In Liang Yue’s eyes, although Ye Feng was smiling, there was a strong self-confidence in his smile. Furthermore, his speech and actions were very appropriate.

More importantly, he was very handsome.

Ye Feng was dressed in a set of casual clothes, making him look clean and neat. Coupled with his confident smile, he looked like a promising young man.

“It seems nice to be a secretary for a handsome guy…”

Reality had proven that not only would men become lecherous, women also became lecherous, which was even more outrageous.

Upon seeing Ye Feng’s appearances, although Liang Yue didn’t have any lustful thoughts, her first impression of him was much better.

“Hello, this is my resume.”

Liang Yue handed over her resume.

“Yes, I’ve already seen your resume.”

Ye Feng put the resume aside and said, “I have a question. According to your resume, you managed to get into Flying Tool Chemicals after graduation. In just a few months, you became the Assistant General Manager.”

“That’s why I’m curious. Your company clearly thinks highly of you, so why did you resign?”

When Liang Yue heard this, her beautiful eyes dimmed.

Why did she resign?

She had thought that her promotion had been so quick because of her ability to work, until that day…

“I slept with our General Manager.” After a pause, Liang Yue continued, “Sometimes it’s a sin to look too good.”

“I see.”

Ye Feng came to a sudden realization.

In the past, he had only heard about these unspoken rules in the workplace. He did not expect to meet someone who had experienced it personally.

That made sense. With Liang Yue’s looks, normal men would not be unmoved.

As for why he wasn’t tempted…

It was definitely not because he was abnormal, but because…

“That’s right, all I want now is money!”

It was hard to talk about the unspoken rules in the workplace, but Liang Yue said it so naturally. Thus, it was obvious that she was not a little girl.

In fact, Liang Yue wasn’t as carefree as Ye Feng thought.

After that incident, she stayed at home for half a year. Only recently did she have the idea of finding a job. Then, she was spotted by the headhunting company and came to Maple Forest Company.
