Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 263 The Opportunity Comes Back

At Zhao Yulu's home.

Zhao Yulu was home alone, Liu Yujuan had disappeared somewhere.

Zhao Yulu sat quietly on the sofa in the living room, not moving at all, her thoughts a mystery.

Time passed unmarked until she picked up her cell phone next to her and called Han Mengting.

The call connected quickly.

"Mengting, I've resigned from Shengda Literature." Zhao Yulu said.

"What? You resigned? So what are your plans now?" Han Mengting was somewhat surprised.

"Mengting, you must know about what happened with Xu Yang, right?" Zhao Yulu asked.

"Yes, I know, your sister Yu Xin told me." Han Mengting said.

"Do you think I'm materialistic, pathetic, and yet not deserving of sympathy?" Zhao Yulu asked again.

"Yulu, I only know the basics of your situation, I'm not clear on the details, so it's not appropriate for me to comment."

"As for whether I think you're materialistic, or pathetic, or deserving of sympathy, I can't really answer those questions directly."

"But I want to say that if Xu Yang had not become a billionaire, if he were still just an ordinary low-level worker, nobody would say anything about your choice, and everyone would say you made the right decision."

"Or if you found a new boyfriend now, someone richer and kinder to you than Xu Yang, people would say that you made the right choice."

"Do you understand what I'm trying to say?"

After a brief silence, Han Mengting offered these thoughts.

"Mengting, I understand." Zhao Yulu nodded.

"You're not just calling me to ask these questions, are you?" Han Mengting asked. Explore stories on m,v l-NovelBin.net

"I've resigned from Shengda Literature, could you help me get a job at Penguin?" Zhao Yulu asked.

"I'm the secretary of the board, and in principle, it wouldn't be a problem to get you a job as an ordinary employee at Penguin Group, but the competition there is fierce. Without exceptional ability, it's hard to stand out, and I don't recommend you join Penguin Group," Han Mengting said.

"All right." Zhao Yulu sounded disappointed.

She wasn't sure if Han Mengting truly had her best interests at heart, or simply didn't want to arrange it for her.

After much thought, she felt her life's dilemma had to be resolved through Han Mengting.

That's why she mustered the courage to make the call, asking straight out for Han Mengting to arrange a job for her.

Her thinking was that with a connection to Han Mengting at Penguin Group, promotions and raises might come easier.

Perhaps she was being too hopeful.

"Yulu, don't be discouraged. Penguin hasn't acquired Shengda Literature, but we're not giving up on the online literature sector."

"We are planning to acquire a certain online literature company soon, and this acquisition shouldn't take long."

"I will still be appointed as the president of the acquired online literature company."

"I will still need an assistant, and I hope you can take on that role. What do you think?"

Han Mengting felt Zhao Yulu's breakup with Xu Yang demonstrated a lack of foresight, but such matters are often hard to articulate clearly.

She wouldn't hold a negative opinion of Zhao Yulu because of this.

Moreover, Zhao Yulu had once saved her life, and if she could lend a hand, she would.

A girl like Zhao Yulu deserved a better life.

"Sure, thank you, Mengting." Zhao Yulu brightened up immediately.

Initially, she felt there wasn't much hope left.

But unexpectedly, the situation took a turn for the better.

Penguin's acquisition of another online literature company would most likely involve the second or third largest in the field.

With Han Mengting as president, and herself as Han Mengting's assistant.

In fact, working at Shengda Literature is not much different.

"Don't mention it, I look forward to seeing your growth, and I believe in you," Han Mengting said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you, Ting sister," Zhao Yulu thanked her again.

"Yulu, I want to say a couple more things about you and Xu Yang," Han Mengting said.

"Go ahead," Zhao Yulu replied.

"Xu Yang has already married your sister Yu Xin, and I can tell that they are very much in love, the kind that cannot be separated."

"What you need to do is not to regret or to wallow in self-pity, but to let go of the past, to not care about other people's opinions, and to live an exciting life of your own."

"When you clear the thorns and climb to a certain height in your career, those voices that laughed at you will disappear."

"Your original choice cannot be said to be wrong, even if it was, as long as you are successful, others will not say anything."

Han Mengting felt it was necessary to give Zhao Yulu some encouragement, especially since Zhao Yulu would be her assistant in the future.

She didn't want Zhao Yulu's work to be affected by this matter later on.

"Ting sister, I used to dwell on this a lot, and every time I thought about it, I would be full of regret."

"Having heard what you've said, I completely understand now. You're right, the past is the past, and I should learn to let it go."

"I should not live in regret, but look forward, as once I succeed, others will no longer have anything to say."

"Ting sister, thank you. You've helped me out of a deadlock," Zhao Yulu said.

Hearing Han Mengting's words, Zhao Yulu felt as if she had an epiphany.

Indeed, her relationship with Xu Yang was just an episode in her life.

There's no denying that breaking up with Xu Yang and seeing him succeed was an ironic situation for her.

Those who knew about it would laugh at her.

She was also affected by this incident, which was why she resigned from Shengda Literature today.

Every time she thought about it, she would regret it.

She shouldn't be like this, as it does no good to continue in this way.

What she needed to do was to let go of the past and embrace life anew.

So what if she no longer had Xu Yang? With her own efforts, she could still lead a wonderful life.

Moreover, now with the help of Han Mengting, who was like a noble person assisting her,

she might well become a powerful woman.

By then, those mocking voices would disappear.

"It's good that you're receptive and have thought it through. Take a few days off to rest and get yourself in gear, because once we start, we'll be busy competing with Shengda Literature, the king of the cultural industry. The work will be quite hectic," Han Mengting advised.

"Also, I tend to be very decisive and efficient at work, and I hope you can join in with the utmost energy and commitment."

"As long as you perform well, my promise remains the same: when I return to the head office, I will recommend you to become the president of the online literature company."

"This would be much better than entering the Penguin Group directly."

"The internal competition at Penguin Group is really fierce, far less pleasant than working at a subsidiary."

"Of course, if you excel in the president's position, it's not impossible to join Penguin's management. That position would be on a different level."

"Alright, I have spoken a bit too much. Take a good rest for several days. As soon as things are settled on my end, I will contact you immediately."

Han Mengting urged and encouraged.

"Okay, Ting sister, I definitely won't let you down," Zhao Yulu promised earnestly.

Ending the call, Zhao Yulu's face broke into a smile again.

The opportunity had come back to her.
