A reborn mother longs for her daughter's happiness.

Chapter 6 The President's Challenge

Li Yuan stood in front of the company building, taking a deep breath. Today was her first day at the company as president. Dressed in a simple yet elegant business suit, she confidently walked through the company gates. However, little did she know that a small storm was waiting for her.

As soon as Li Yuan entered the office area, she was stopped by Supervisor Wang.

Manager Wang sized her up, his eyes full of disdain. "Hey, are you new here?" he asked arrogantly.

Li Yuan frowned slightly, but still nodded politely, "Yes."

Manager Wang sneered, "Judging from your appearance, you used to be a housewife, right? Coming to our company is not as easy as being at home."

Li Yuan was somewhat displeased, but she didn't want to get into a conflict on her first day, so she calmly said, "I will try my best to do my job well."

Manager Wang persisted, "Hmph, hard work? We have a project in cooperation with a foreign company. We weren't planning on having newcomers like you involved, but since you're here, you'll be in charge with Sister Chen. If you mess it up, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Li Yuan was startled; she hadn't expected to be assigned such an important task on her first day, and it was clear that Supervisor Wang was deliberately making things difficult for her. However, she didn't back down. "Okay, I'll do my best to complete it."

At this moment, Sister Chen walked over. Sister Chen was also a housewife with children, the same age as Li Yuan, and she looked somewhat nervous. "Manager Wang, this project is so important, can we handle it?"

Manager Wang waved his hand impatiently, "Whether it works or not is your business, don't bother me." After saying that, he turned and left.

Li Yuan looked at Sister Chen and smiled, saying, "Is this Sister Chen? Don't worry, we'll work together."

Sister Chen looked at Li Yuan gratefully, "Thank you, but I really don't have much experience and don't know where to start."

“It’s alright, let’s learn about the foreign company first,” Li Yuan said, leading Sister Chen to the archives room to look up relevant information.

After some effort, they gained a certain understanding of the cooperation project and the foreign-invested enterprise. Li Yuan and Sister Chen began to prepare the cooperation plan. They divided the work, with Li Yuan quickly developing the framework of the plan with her keen business acumen and extensive knowledge, while Sister Chen carefully added some details.

Finally, the day arrived to meet with the representatives of the foreign company. Li Yuan and Sister Chen arrived at the conference room early, waiting for their arrival.

Shortly after, Ms. Xia, the representative of the foreign company, walked in. Ms. Xia looked shrewd and capable, with a sharp look in her eyes.

Manager Wang also arrived at the conference room, hoping to see Li Yuan and Sister Chen make a fool of themselves. "These are the people from our company who are in charge of this project, Ms. Xia, please take a look," Manager Wang said to Ms. Xia.

Ms. Xia glanced at Li Yuan and Sister Chen, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, "Are they really capable of handling this project? They both look so young."

Manager Wang quickly chimed in, "Ms. Xia, if you're not satisfied, we can find someone else."

Li Yuan stepped forward and smiled at Ms. Xia, saying, "Ms. Xia, I know you may have some doubts about us, but please give us a chance. We have made thorough preparations for this project, and although we are housewives, that doesn't mean we lack ability. Family life has made us more aware of responsibility and patience, qualities that are also very important in business cooperation."

Sister Chen nodded in agreement, “Yes, Ms. Xia, we really cherish this opportunity.”

Ms. Xia looked at their confident eyes and nodded slightly, "Alright then, tell me your proposal first."

Li Yuan began to explain the cooperation plan in detail, from market analysis to cooperation model and expected returns, explaining each step clearly. Sister Chen added details and case studies as needed.

Ms. Xia listened with increasing interest, and the doubt in her eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by admiration. "Your plan is excellent. I didn't expect you to have considered everything so thoroughly. Moreover, your understanding of family and career makes me feel that you are a very promising business partner."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your recognition. We hope this cooperation will be a win-win situation."

Manager Wang was stunned. He hadn't expected that Li Yuan and Sister Chen would actually gain Ms. Xia's approval. "Ms. Xia, this... this is just a preliminary plan, it still needs further refinement," he tried to salvage the situation.

Ms. Xia rolled her eyes at him. "I think this plan is already very good and doesn't need any changes. I've decided to cooperate with your company, and these two ladies will be in charge of this project."

Li Yuan and Sister Chen exchanged a smile, their hearts filled with joy. "Thank you, Ms. Xia, we certainly won't let you down," Li Yuan said.

After the meeting, Li Yuan and Sister Chen returned to the office area. Their colleagues looked at them with surprise and admiration.

"Li Yuan, Sister Chen, you two are amazing! You actually managed to secure such a big project," a colleague said.

“Yes, we all thought this project would be very difficult, but we didn’t expect you to finish it so quickly,” another colleague said.

Li Yuan said with a smile, "This is the result of our joint efforts. In fact, housewives also have their own advantages, and we should not be bound by other people's prejudices."

Sister Chen nodded and said, "Yes, this collaboration has given me confidence. We need to work even harder in the future to prove our worth."

However, Supervisor Wang was unwilling to give up. He called Li Yuan into his office and said, "Hmph, don't think you're all that just because you succeeded this time. There's still a lot of work to be done on this project. If anything goes wrong, you can expect to be fired."

Li Yuan looked at Supervisor Wang with a firm gaze, "Supervisor Wang, I will take full responsibility for this project. I hope you won't judge people with prejudice in the future; everyone has their own potential."

After saying that, Li Yuan walked out of Manager Wang's office. She knew that she might encounter more difficulties at the company in the future, but she would not give up easily.

Back at her desk, Li Yuan began to think about the next steps for the project.

Sister Chen walked over and asked, "Li Yuan, what should we do next?"

"We need to coordinate with various departments to ensure the project progresses smoothly. Also, we need to maintain close communication with Ms. Xia to promptly resolve any potential problems," Li Yuan said.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. By the way, you were really brave today, handling Manager Wang's difficult questions and Ms. Xia's doubts with ease," Sister Chen said admiringly.

“Sister Chen, I’m actually nervous too, but we can’t back down. We have to prove ourselves and our group of housewives.” Li Yuan said with a smile.
