This was nothing but beneficial for Jake, with absolutely no harm. There was no scheming, no gossip. Jake didn't have to bear the shameful reputation of having an affair with the sales director of "Shigella." However, all the disadvantages had to be borne by Mina alone.

The actual age difference between them was nine years, and they were in a superior-subordinate relationship. Most importantly, Jake had only been at "Shigella" for a few months but had already slept with the company's witch-like manager, Mina. In a large corporation, this was undoubtedly explosive.

If their relationship were made public, the next day's headlines would be about a young, handsome pretty boy who had entered "Shigella" through the back door and successfully pursued the young female supervisor with his large penis and excellent sexual performance, achieving a dramatic reversal in his life.

However, Jake's actual situation was even more shocking. He was the future son-in-law of the president of "Shigella" and even had an unspeakable physical relationship with the president's sister.

…

It had been a week since Jake returned to normal work. That night, thanks to Jake's hard work, Sister Mina had told him the secret—his application for team leader had been approved by Mr. Tong.

Sister Mina was very excited and genuinely happy for Jake, but no one understood better than Jake that this meant his mother-in-law, Yana, had agreed to let him marry Mia.

Unfortunately, life was always filled with mixed emotions, and Jake's harem had gained another witch-like supervisor.

This was a heavyweight beauty. Jake hadn't expected that even without using the "Mind Peeping" skill, Sister Mina would like him. In fact, Jake himself didn't realize that as he mastered the "Mind Peeping" skill, he had been subtly changed. Moreover, as he became more proficient at eavesdropping on women's "inner voices," he could now amplify or reduce the "inner voices" of the women around him. Now, Jake could vaguely block some unimportant "inner voices," and the range of his eavesdropping had also expanded.

Simply put, if Jake wanted to eavesdrop on the inner thoughts of a group of women, he could only do so within a radius of four or five meters. If he focused on just one person, his range would double.

This was what Jake had gained over the past week. Since establishing a relationship with Sister Mina, she had stopped avoiding him and returned to work. To other colleagues, it seemed as though Sister Mina was just coming to the office more frequently, with nothing unusual going on.

At work, Sister Mina acted as if nothing had happened, and even her personal assistant, Dora, was unaware. Only Jake knew that this was no longer the sales department he had first joined.

However, Jake learned from Sister Mina that the job of a supervisor was truly not easy, and what had been given to him was just the tip of the iceberg. It was clear that Sister Mina's abilities were extraordinary.

While waiting for his promotion, his girlfriend, Mia, surprisingly hadn't contacted Jake, and his teacher aunt was, as always, very busy.

This was also why Jake tested "Mind Reading" in his free time. Even with Jake's intelligence, he couldn't figure out the promotion rules of "Mind Reading." He could only superficially observe that "Mind Reading" was improving day by day.

After several months of adjustment, Jake was no longer the ignorant young man he once was. The "mind-reading" superpower was the most important secret in his heart and his strongest support. It seemed that only with it could Jake get what he wanted and achieve his desires.

In the company, the gossip king, Cabel, naturally made a lot of noise. As Jake's close friend, it seemed as though it wasn't Jake who got promoted but him.

In the past, there hadn't been many personnel changes in the sales department of "Shigella," so few people discussed it. But today was different. After the incident with Director Brant as an insider and the large number of layoffs, the hot and powerful competitors in the sales department became the topic of discussion among the team members.

"Hey, listen to me, three to one odds, I'm betting on Jake."

During the lunch break, the sales department was busier than usual. As Cabel shouted, more and more team members returned from the cafeteria, crowding the lounge.

The spacious lounge was packed, and a group of team members surrounded Cabel.

Jake and Lily, who were not far away, looked over with strange expressions.

"Has Brother Cabel always been like this?"

"Yeah." Lily was too embarrassed to look. Currently, only Jake knew about her relationship with Cabel.

"It fits Brother Cabel's personality—he's a social butterfly." Now familiar with him, Jake blurted out the answer without any embellishment.

"Just wait, I'll teach you a lesson when we get back." Lily swore silently.

Jake glanced meaningfully at Lily. The woman's inner voice, which had once been clear, could no longer be heard. He couldn't help but feel proud of the attempt he had made.

"I bet on Sister Sun, I bet on Jake... I bet on Brother." The members who placed bets were particularly excited after being encouraged by Cabel.

"Haha, I'm going to make a lot of money this time." Cabel looked proud, his chubby face full of smiles.

This was a regular feature of the sales department. No one took it too seriously. Although it was a bet, it was just a WhatsApp group created on the spot where red envelopes were sent, so Mina simply turned a blind eye.

Even though Jake had achieved considerable success when he first arrived at the "Shigella" sales department, the support he received was still disappointing. The old employees knew very well that Jake was too young and lacked experience. If he wanted to be promoted to team leader, he would have to wait until next year.

However, Cabel wouldn't do business at a loss and firmly believed that Jake would be elected, so he made this bet.

The afternoon passed quickly, and everyone's enthusiasm remained high, so much so that they worked more actively in the afternoon.

Cabel sat back at his workstation contentedly and said to Jake beside him, "Brother Jake, I'm really rich this time."

Jake was speechless. "Be more reserved, kid. You're already discussing this before there's even a reason. And you're even offering three-to-one odds. If I lose, your trip to Sanya with Lily will be ruined."

Lily's pretty face flushed when she was called out. "Jake, stop talking nonsense. Who wants to go on a trip with him?"

Cabel was full of confidence. His eyes fell on Lily. "Then let me borrow your good wishes, Lily. Let's go to Sanya for the New Year."

"Shut up." Lily's cheeks puffed up, and her eyes were sharp.

Cabel shuddered and avoided looking away angrily. "Oh, oh."

"Brother Cabel, you've come to this day. Finally, someone can control you." Jake couldn't help laughing. Brother Cabel was quite smart. If Sister Mina hadn't revealed the truth, he wouldn't have dared to guarantee that he would be promoted to team leader.

Speak of the devil, and he appears. Not long after Jake and the others started working in the afternoon, someone from the Human Resources Department hurried over. After a brief conversation, they left a notice and departed.

The sales department immediately became lively, and everyone began discussing the matter while Manager Mina was away.

The notice was as follows: After being tested by the superior department and taking into account the individual performance and qualifications of the "Shigella" sales department, the following adjustments are made in terms of positions. Sunny, formerly a member of the Brant Group of the sales department, is transferred to be the new team leader of Group One, and Tony, formerly a member of the Chester Group, is transferred to be the new team leader of Group Two. Their salaries will be increased. This is hereby announced.

"Gone?" Cabel squeezed into the crowd, his eyes sparkling as he looked at the notice. "It's all over. My little treasury is gone."

"Haha, I guessed right. It's really Sister Sun."

As soon as the notice was released, the crowd began to stir. Some showed off to Cabel, while others posted emojis about "dividing the spoils" in the group chat. Only Cabel had a bitter face, looking at Jake pitifully and muttering, "Impossible! Did I make a wrong bet?"
