Su Xiaomeng looked at the four men in front of her...

Regardless of their looks, those who have made it to the management level of the Yin Family have long had a straight posture, handsome brows, and they exude a superior aura compared to ordinary men.

"Can I ask... for the reasons?"

Su Xiaomeng reached out to move the four resignation letters to her side, spread them out with her long fingers, having a scan with her beautiful eyes, her gaze falling on the employees before her,

"Is it because throughout the years working at the Yin Family, the Yin Family hasn’t treated you poorly?"

"Is it dissatisfaction and protest against me, the newly appointed president?"

"Or is it... someone from outside offering you a great enough temptation and profit?"

After a simple exchange of glances among the four big men, the head of the HR department spoke first,

"Water flows to lower places, but people aspire to go higher. President Su is not wrong, indeed there are quite excellent enterprises offering us olive branches."

"They have offered very favorable conditions, and after weighing things, plus you, President Su, mentioned earlier this week that we would have your understanding if we wanted to jump ship, so..."

The head of HR paused at this point, slightly shifting his pitch,

"These years working at the Yin Family, the company certainly hasn’t treated us poorly, therefore it’s not very noble of us to submit resignation letters at such a critical juncture, but—"

"No, you’re right, water flows to lower places, but people should go higher."

"Although I don’t know how you define this ’higher place’, I’ve already said before that I will definitely give the greatest understanding if anyone wants to resign or jump ship within this week."

"Chen Lan, please make a call to the finance department and have them settle the salaries with them."

"But before leaving, please finish handing over your work, this shouldn’t be too difficult for you, right?"

"President Su, this, of course..."

The HR head agreed, stuttering slightly, evidently because Su Xiaomeng’s calm response was beyond his expectations.

"Is there anything else? If not, you may leave."

Su Xiaomeng smiled, pointing in the direction of the office door.

The executives exchanged another glance, and the marketing manager hesitated before speaking,

"Actually, President Su, if you’d be willing to retain us—"

Before the man could finish speaking, Su Xiaomeng suddenly let out a chuckle, unable to hold back, interrupting the man’s carefully prepared wording.

Su Xiaomeng quickly said,

"Sorry, couldn’t help but laugh."

Even though the man had fought his way up to this level in the workplace, he couldn’t fail to see the clear mockery in Su Xiaomeng’s eyes.

"I don’t understand, what did I just say that made you laugh, President Su?"

Su Xiaomeng’s delicate lips curved slightly, yet the previous mockery was gone from her eyes,

"Retain you? With better offers than those made to poach you?"

"Uh..."

Seeing the other party dumbfounded, Su Xiaomeng didn’t wait for him to find the words, glanced at her watch, her expression showing a trace of impatience,

"In fact, if you want to resign, you can simply go to HR to handle the resignation procedures. Secretary Luo should’ve long informed HR, as the head of HR, you wouldn’t be unaware, right?"

The head of HR stiffened momentarily, then, as though having found a flaw in Su Xiaomeng, squared his chest and said,

"Indeed, I am aware. But doesn’t President Su believe that having us handle resignation procedures casually at HR like common employees would seem that the company does not value talent?"

"Talent... This is the first time I’ve heard someone refer to themselves as talent."

Su Xiaomeng shrugged, the curve at her lips widening further.

"The company certainly values talent, but it cannot value talent that is about to belong to someone else, right? This is akin to... no man willing to spend time and money caring for someone else’s wife."

This metaphor indeed disgusted the overly self-important HR head before her.

"HR head, marketing manager, promotions manager, sales department manager... Once talents like you leave, other talents will replace you."

"You’ve resigned, and I accept."

"If you wish for me to retain you, I’m willing to do so, but with better offers and conditions..."

Su Xiaomeng smiled,

"I don’t believe I can provide."

"I haven’t seen the ability in you to deserve higher salary and treatment, only the schemes to take advantage of the situation and kick someone when they’re down."

Su Xiaomeng directly looked at the men before her,

"Though I’m very curious whether your resignation letters were truly meant for higher endeavors or merely to test me, the newly appointed president."
