Chapter 98: Making a illusion and covering up shame

Because I slept too late, when I opened my eyes, it was already past nine o'clock the next morning. I took a shower, changed my clothes, drove to the company to work.

As soon as he entered the office, Zhang Hui came up and said, "Dr. Fang, you are here."

I nodded, sat down at the desk and asked her, "What are the arrangements today?"

"Today you made an appointment with Chairman Zhou Qianying of 'Liying' Company. You are going to talk to her about the joint venture." Zhang Hui quickly opened the notepad and said while looking, "There is nothing else."

"Then call there and ask when it will be convenient for Zhou Qianying to go over." I smiled self-deprecatingly, "It's really hard to be an assistant."

"Okay." Zhang Hui turned around and walked out, and I called her again, "Wait a minute, Yu Fei came to me by the way."

Zhang Hui agreed and went out.

After a while, when the door opened, Zhang Hui walked in and Song Jing was following her.

"Dr. Fang, 'Liying' has replied, saying that their chairman has been waiting for you to come. I did not find Vice President Jiang, she did not come to work today."

"Tell them I'll go there." I turned to ask Song Jing, "Xiao Jing, is there anything wrong?"

Song Jing smiled and said to Zhang Hui on the side, "Xiaohui, go out first, Juexiao and I have something to say."

"Okay." Zhang Hui agreed and went out.

"Are you still angry?" Song Jing walked over with a smile.

I stood up and hugged her and shook my head with a smile, "I've been relieved. I understand Yufei's bad temper. Don't worry, I won't be really angry with her."

"Your temper is not much better!" Song Jing poked my forehead with her finger, "Since you know she has a bad temper, do you just let her go a little bit? Why do you have to do this?"

"I was also dizzy for a moment and didn't have time to think about these things at that time." I smiled. "Maybe I was talking a little too heavily at that time. Don't worry, I'll go to her tonight. I guess her anger has disappeared. Then I will talk to her again and the matter will be over."

"Don't you admit your mistake with her?" Song Jing looked at me, "I'm afraid that if you don't admit your mistake, she will still be angry with you."

"I don't think I'm doing anything wrong," I thought about it, "I have my own ideas and my own principles of being a human being. I'm not her toy. Why did she say she would give me someone if she wanted to give me someone? Why didn't she consider my feelings before doing it? So I think I'm not wrong in handling this matter. If I want to apologize, it's just because I was a little impulsive and said something I shouldn't say."

"Don't blame her." Song Jing pondered for a moment, "Actually, we all knew about this in advance. Our sisters also accused Yu Fei of his actions."

"What?!" I stared at Song Jing in surprise, "You mean you were involved too?"

Song Jing nodded gently, "Yufei told us about this in advance. We all felt that Meifang was very pitiful. Since she had a emotional foundation with you, she was gentle and kind in human nature. So we all agreed with Yufei's idea."

"You--" I felt anger in my heart after being tricked and played with by others. I was about to get angry. But when I thought of Yu Fei's past lessons, I tried hard to calm down the anger in my heart and try my best to calm myself down. "How can you do this?"

Seeing that I was not angry, Song Jing seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. "Meifang is also very pitiful."

"When did you become so loving?" I shook my head helplessly, "I really don't understand what you think."

"Maybe everyone can't bear to see Meifang being so lonely and want to help her."

"It's not like this to help others." I smiled bitterly, "Do you think this is like a child crying. Is it so easy for you to give her a toy to make her happy? Feelings are not a joke. I'm not a toy either."

Song Jing kissed me gently and whispered, "I'm sorry."

"No, Xiaojing," I held Song Jing tightly in my arms and looked at her beautiful big eyes affectionately. "I should say sorry that the man from the earth is me. I know that this has caused you a lot of grievances now. Sorry, I-"

"Don't!" Song Jing smiled faintly and placed her slender finger on my lips. "I know you always feel sorry for me. But I said that since I chose this kind of life, there is no reason to regret it again. Didn't we agree not to talk about this issue in the future? Why did you say it again?"

"But--"

"Stop talking about this." Song Jing smiled, "At least I'm very happy at the moment. When will you go find Yu Fei?"

I thought about it and said, "It will take two days. She is angry now. She will not give me a good look after she goes. After two days, she will go to talk to her."

"You might as well go to her in the afternoon. She called me in the morning. I didn't seem to be very angry with you when I heard her tone." Song Jing said with a smile. "Don't forget, she is still the vice president in charge of finance. Without her, a capable person, there will be a lot of trouble."

I shook my head helplessly, "Woman, sometimes it's really unreasonable. I clearly have done something wrong, but I still have to apologize to her."

"Because women are asking men to coax the ground. Aren't you going out to do business?" Song Jing reached out and gently tidied up my clothes, "Go and do business quickly, don't let others wait."

"Okay." I kissed Song Jing gently on her face, "Then I'll go."

"Driving carefully." Song Jing reminded me behind me, "Remember to find Yufei."

When I walked into Zhou Qianying's office, she was approving documents behind her desk.

"You're here," she nodded to me when she saw me in, her face as cold as usual.

Only then did I realize that her face was a little pale, as if she was sick. But I didn't say anything, because that didn't seem to be a question I should care about.

I sat on the sofa and waited for her. Soon Zhou Qianying finished reviewing it. She asked the female secretary who came in to take the documents away, stood up and walked over.

It seems that she is really sick because she is a little sloppy when walking.

Zhou Qianying sat opposite me and opened the door and said, "I'm sorry, I'm anxious to come to you these days. I want to discuss something very urgent with you."

I thought to myself, no wonder. She would call me every day to come and see her. As expected, I asked me for something to discuss. It sounds nice. Is she willing to discuss with me? One hundred percent of the time she encountered trouble and wanted me to put out the fire.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" I smiled faintly, "Don't you ask me to do something again?"

Zhou Qianying was embarrassed and said immediately without any intention, "I have something to ask you to do."

I cursed in my heart, what's the point! When I use it, I will be respectful to the wise and the wise. If I don't need me, I will be burned. This woman is really a typical representative of forgetting her righteousness when she sees profit.

Zhou Qianying didn't care what I thought, and continued to say, "That's right. Our cooperation with PSD has been going well. The joint venture was formed very quickly. But recently there was a problem, and PSD has been reluctant to transfer the last money to our account. I have asked someone to urge me several times, but they have been making excuses to refuse to transfer the money. I want to ask you to urge me. How about it?"

I shook my head and said, "I'm afraid I can't help you with this matter. You know, I haven't asked about the joint venture from beginning to end. Now you ask me to ask for money, this is probably inappropriate."

"What's wrong?" Zhou Qianying said without thinking. "You are the assistant to the general manager of the joint venture and the full representative of the PSD company. This is your job."

"Our job? Tell!" I smiled slightly, "If you don't say that I forgot that I have this job. Unfortunately, I have never received a progress report on the establishment of a joint venture, nor have I attended a company meeting. I wonder if I was neglecting my duties? Or did you, Chairman Jay Chou, forget to remind me?"

Ha! I didn't even allow me to attend a meeting, and I didn't even notify me of the situation at all. Now you are begging me to do business. I remembered me, the assistant who is named. You think I am your follower, and you can use it whatever you want.

"This is my fault." Zhou Qianying immediately took on her responsibilities readily and calmly, "I was negligent. I will ask them to send you all the documents about the company's location when I wait. I hope you can communicate with PSD immediately, otherwise the shortage of funds will seriously affect the progress of the company's establishment."

"It's not that I don't want to help you. It's just that I really don't understand the situation."

"You can find out as soon as possible. I really need this money in urgent need. Can you do a favor?" Zhou Qianying's eyes were a little anxious, "If I can't get this money now, I will lose a lot of money. I hope you can help me again."

"I'll try it. Communicate with PSD as soon as possible." I said perfunctorily, "Explain the situation here and let them get the money as soon as possible."

"I don't care about them." Zhou Qianying shook her head and stared at me, "I hope you can directly find your godmother to clear it up. Or discuss it with Miss Anqier."

"You asked me to help you with the back door?"

"It's very urgent, and I have no choice but to do it." Zhou Qianying was a little anxious. So small beads of sweat oozed out of her pale face. "If I have another way, I won't come and ask you for help."

I nodded, "I believe you. It will be a bit difficult to speak again after crossing the river and destroying the bridge."

Zhou Qianying immediately understood that it was her previous attitude that made me very upset. She pondered for a moment and said, "I know, my attitude towards you in the past made you very angry. That's mine. I'm... apologizing to you now,... I'm sorry."

I didn't expect that she would apologize to me. This was beyond my expectations. Could it be that just because I helped her once on the road, she became better at me? Thinking of her fickleness and "forget the righteousness when she saw profits". I was not surprised by her doing this. However, when she said the last sentence, her face turned slightly red. Her tone felt very forced. I guess she would rarely say this "sorry" in normal times. It really made her feel embarrassed to make her apologize like this.

"Forget it," I smiled generously, but I just slapped the head. Since I apologized, I don't need to make things difficult for her anymore. "I'll try to fight for you. As for whether it works, I can't guarantee it. If it doesn't work, don't scold me."

Zhou Qianying smiled. "Then I will thank you first."

"If you have nothing else," I looked at my watch and stood up and said, "I'll go first."

"Don't leave." Zhou Qianying stood up and stopped me, "I have something to do."

This woman! She will try to death if she finds free "labor". She will squeeze out as much surplus value as she has. She is indeed very potential as a capitalist.

"Tell me," I sighed helplessly, "What else do you want me to do?"

"Look at you're scared!" Zhou Qianying smiled and glared at me, "I want you to have a meal together at noon. I remember that last time I promised you. If you helped me get it done, I want to invite you to have a meal to express my gratitude. Now I want to fulfill my original promise."

Then I remembered that time when she begged me to Anna's godmother, I joked that after she made her a successful job, she would invite me to dinner and express my gratitude. But after that, she had the same attitude towards my enemy, so that I had long forgotten about this matter. It would be nice if she didn't give me a cold face of "deep suffering and deep hatred". How could I dare to expect her to treat me to dinner?

"I thought you would be the year of the Monkey and Horse Month for this meal." I laughed, "But your abacus is really good. I ask someone to help you twice and only pay once. Haha, it's really good to get up early!"

"You're not so stingy, are you?" Zhou Qianying smiled, "I'm so upset about a meal? This is not like a real man."

When she came out with Zhou Qianying, she felt that her feet were weak when walking. As soon as she walked from the office to the parking lot, a lot of sweat appeared on her forehead, and even her breathing became much faster.

Seeing her frowning slightly, I couldn't help but ask with concern, "What's wrong with you? Are you sick?"

"It's okay." Zhou Qianying smiled, but her face became paler. "Aren't I good?"

"If you get sick, don't hold on." I can now be sure that she is sick, "It will not benefit you. Your body is the capital of revolution."

"Nothing big deal." Zhou Qianying smiled indifferently, "It was just that she had a stomachache last night and didn't sleep well. Now it's fine."

I shook my head and said, "Your face is very bad. I think I'll forget it today. Let's have this meal another day."

"I said I'm fine." Zhou Qianying gave me a blank look. "Okay. Don't be so mother-in-law like a woman. I know my own affairs. Don't worry. I don't want you to say that I'm a person who doesn't speak again."

Since she insisted that I had something to say, she had no choice but to nod, "Okay, just do what you said."

"I don't want to drive today," Zhou Qianying smiled, "I'll ask you to be my voluntary driver once. How about it?"

"Yes." I opened the car door, "I still have this kind of demeanor. Please get in the car."

Jiangnan Restaurant is a very famous restaurant. It mainly sells high-end palace dishes. Although the price is not expensive, the four-story restaurant is full of guests every day. I heard that some very famous companies have private rooms here all year round in order to entertain their guests.

"Can you do it?" I looked at Zhou Qianying walking beside me and asked her in a low voice. Because her face looked even more ugly now, she sweated more. Looking at her sweaty face, I was really afraid that she would suddenly fall to the ground, so I would learn from Lei Feng to do good things again, "If you can't do it, don't hold on. Body is more important than face."

"I'm fine, don't make a fuss."

Zhou Qianying gave me a smile that showed her good, but I always felt that she was reluctant to support her. Now I really regret agreeing to have this meal with her. Is this simply a test of my sympathy? Who would have thought that something that embarrassed me is still there!

Zhou Qianying is probably a regular visitor here. As soon as she arrived, a lobby manager came up to greet her intimately. As for the problem of the private room for dinner, it was solved immediately.
