Xiao has thought about it for a long time

As soon as the words came out, even Secretary Chen was stunned for a moment. He was still laughing with nice words, but now he forced his expression back and his eyes changed.He glanced at Josie, but he couldn't see Josie's emotions, and Boss Lu didn't realize it, and talked a lot.

Middle-aged men have a common problem, they are self-righteous and unconscious, their eyes seem to be blind and they can't read their faces.

Secretary Chen hurriedly smoothed things over in the middle, took a glass of wine, and said, "Boss Lu, I would like to toast you."

Boss Lu drank it readily, which made him very happy. He blushed and his neck was thick from drinking, and he smelled of alcohol all over his body.As the invited party, he is now more like the host, talking nonsense, the corners of his eyes are wrinkled, and his eyes are narrowed.

Josie hasn’t seen any big scenes these days. The old slickers on the board of directors are always in a dilemma. If they catch a little mistake, they will make a big fuss or make a small trip. The partners have also seen many smiling foxes, who are polite and straightforward. Secretly insisting on it for the sake of profit, and those who have the cheek to try to delay the payment, she sees all the tricks, thinking that she can just persist, but this is the first time she has seen someone as shameless as Boss Lu.

The wine Boss Lu drank flowed back from his stomach into his brain, and he was drunk and confused. Originally, Josie was giving him a step down if he didn't have a seizure, but he didn't know the fun, thinking it was because of his own face, so he returned it with a smile. Josie poured wine and said something inexplicable in his mouth.

"I've been working with your father for two or three years, and this is the first time I've seen you. I didn't expect you to be so beautiful. Old Qiao really hides her so deeply. I never brought out such a precious daughter to see you before."

Among the ranks of middle-aged men, Boss Lu's appearance is not bad, which is enough to show that he must have been handsome and upright when he was young. Is it because of his inferior nature or because he has been immersed in the big dye vat of the business field for a long time, the current him looks really hard to describe.

The slit eyes finally opened, and their gaze wandered on Josie's delicate face.

"Come, come, Xiaoxi, right?" Boss Lu said with a smile, raising his glass, "Have a drink with Uncle, and the big guys. We will have a happy cooperation in the future. I wish our business will be more prosperous."

When toasting, probably because his mind was dizzy and his hands were unsteady, the wine glass shook, and the wine spilled out immediately, part of it fell on the table, and part of it fell into Josie's glass.

People who love wine table culture don't care about spilling wine on the wine table.The ignorant Boss Lu didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him at all, and stared at Josie drunkenly, motioning to pick up his glass for a quick clink.

In addition to Secretary Chen, there were other employees from the two companies on the table, all of whom were above the manager level.If Qiao Jianliang came to this dinner, he would have to serve Boss Lu well. After all, the cooperation between the two parties does not pay attention to details.

The employees of the two companies heard what they said just now, and saw that Boss Lu was going to toast, they all stood up with their glasses.Secretary Chen's heart was sweating. Seeing Josie sitting still, he hesitated for a while, but he still sat still and firmly stood by Josie's side.

Josie kept an indifferent face, unable to see any thoughts or emotions. After a moment, she stood up with a glass full of wine.

Boss Lu smiled immediately, the corners of his mouth opened, and a smile appeared on his flushed face, not to mention how beautiful it was.

The juniors are sensible and winky.

Secretary Chen was not sure what Josie was thinking, so he stood up and quickly picked up the cup, thinking that he really wanted a drink. Seeing that Josie didn't open his mouth, he kept helping and replied: "It's a happy cooperation, Boss Lu. ..."

As soon as the word "just" was finished, before he had time to say the rest, an accident happened, and his next words were interrupted abruptly.

Josie poured the glass with a blank expression, and greeted Boss Lu's smiling face with the full glass of wine. Without hesitation, his movements were clean and neat. After pouring, he took a piece of paper to wipe his hands in a slow manner.

The red wine in the glass fell from Boss Lu's face onto his white shirt, it was so eye-catching, it was so red and wet, it was like splashing a glass of paint on it.

The red wine trickled down his cheeks, dripping down continuously, and he looked very embarrassed.

Before Boss Lu could react, he felt a chill on his face, then his neck and chest, and the strong smell of dry red wine lingered in his nostrils.

Everyone in the private room was stunned, each of them froze to maintain the original movement, not daring to show their breath.

There was no trace of annoyance or fear on Jossie's face, and she didn't even feel that she had succeeded in revenge. She still looked calm, wiped her hands, and said to Secretary Chen, "Take the contract away, so I won't sign it."

After finishing speaking, he pulled out the chair, walked sideways and prepared to go out.

Boss Lu finally came back to his senses, his face turned pale, his eyes were bloodshot, he was so angry that he clenched his hands into fists and slammed them on the table with a loud sound.

Really angry.

Everyone present was startled, and their hearts trembled suddenly.

"Where are you going? Stop!" Boss Lu said angrily, angrily, perhaps to preserve the last bit of dignity, he didn't raise his hand to wipe his face, or the staff next to him carefully handed over two pieces of paper, and then wiped face.

Others were afraid, but Josie was not. When she came back to her senses, she frowned and squinted, and her red lips parted slightly: "Why, Boss Lu still has something to say?"

She used to have this temperament in the compound, covered with thorns, but determined and calm, she just stood there, straight, without even giving her a straight look.

Boss Lu's eyes were red with anger. It was an insult. The veins on his neck were throbbing. He gritted his teeth and said, "What does this mean!"

Josie remained calm, "What do you think?"

"That's what your father taught you?!" Boss Lu still had a semblance of reason, even though he was in a hurry, he still retained his so-called demeanor of a middle-aged successful person.

In fact, this dinner is important to both parties. It is not a small order of tens of millions. The two companies have cooperated for a long time and have maintained a win-win situation. Now that one party is determined to withdraw, Boss Lu is still panicked, so he will take it as soon as he opens his mouth. Qiao Jianliang came out to press Josie.

It's a pity that Josie didn't appreciate it, she twitched the corner of her lips sarcastically, and replied: "How can my dad teach Boss Lu not to take care of it, just take care of his own affairs, if the wine is not enough, I will toast again, how about it?"

Brightly slapped him directly, Boss Lu's face turned green, his face was so ugly that his cheeks twitched.All the employees remained silent and stood aside like quails. Secretary Chen stood in front of Qiao Xi without a trace, still respectful, but Boss Lu was not allowed to make any unnecessary moves.

A dinner that was supposed to be the best of both worlds ended in disputes and cursing, and the red wine bottle was broken, leaving a mess.

Boss Lu shook his hands with anger, pointed at Josie's nose and cursed, and said threateningly: "Just wait and see, I'll see in two days if you still dare to be arrogant!"

Secretary Chen escorted Josie out.

The cooperation between the two companies was terminated, and the original friendly relationship was shattered like glass falling from a building.

The incident was reported to the top management on the same day, causing a lot of trouble.

It is certain that there will be some sacrifices in doing business. The cooperation this time was supposed to be a sure thing, but it ended in this situation. The old slippery senior executives were so angry that they almost vomited blood, and immediately came to find trouble.

Of course, it is relatively civilized. It is a small temporary meeting, and only the company's senior management participates.

Secretary Chen was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, but there was nothing he could do about it, so he quickly taught a set of excuses, making Josie bound to deal with these people.

I don't know who tipped off the news in private, but Zhou Meihe rushed over. She put on airs and was angrier than everyone present, especially after Josie finished dealing with those old tricksters, she immediately slapped the table and said loudly: "Nonsense! It's a joke!"

Josie looked over.

Zhou Meihe said again: "Just because of this, you poured wine all over him? You don't even have the courage? Do you know how long your father has been running back and forth for this business, and that Boss Lu is the company's biggest customer?" , this year we managed to cooperate again, and the volume of orders was double that of last year. It is the hard work of your father and the hard work of many people in the company that you are messing up now!"

The accusations are non-stop, and every sentence is reasonable. Indeed, since Josie is sitting in this position, she should take due responsibility, but right now she not only failed to do what she should have done, but also caused the company to suffered huge losses.

This is a serious dereliction of duty. If someone else is to be replaced, he will have been held accountable.

Anyway, no matter what you say, no matter how disgusting Boss Lu is, Josie is responsible for the collapse of the business.

Josie agrees, quietly listening to everyone scolding, listening to them blaming herself.Only when Zhou Meihe scolded her for being impulsive and reckless, disregarding all the employees of the company, and being too selfish, did she lightly reply: "In what capacity is Auntie responsible, a company employee?"

Zhou Meihe choked up on the spot, because she had nothing to do with the company. She was able to sit here today because she operated the airborne secretly. Now that Josie pointed it out mercilessly, she was stuck like a clockwork. What should I do.

It's intriguing to not be an employee of the company, but to appear at the high-level meeting.

Josie recognizes everything she should recognize, but she will not let others ride on her head. She glanced around sharply, put her hands on the long table, bent her waist slightly, and said loudly: "You have said enough." , now it's my turn."

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhou Meihe again.

"I don't care what everyone thinks, whether you think I'm incompetent or foolish, but don't forget, even if I don't represent my dad, I can still sit here. I have 15% of the shares in my hand. The power is no lower than any of you. Even if you want to be held accountable, it is not up to you. Now the person in charge of the company is me, and the decision-making power is mine. If you are not satisfied, you can wait for my dad to wake up before suing, but please I figured it out, now I am your boss."

The pun was a wake-up call to the high-level executives present, as well as a reminder to Zhou Meihe.

If it was Qiao Jianliang who made the decision today, there would never be such an impromptu meeting. He is the boss, and his subordinates can only obey and make suggestions. But now these high-level executives hold an impromptu meeting, all they have to say is to criticize Josie. What does it represent?

These people didn't agree with Josie from the beginning to the end, they just drove the ducks to the shelves and let her sit there.

The vast majority of people in the upper echelon look down on Josie from the bottom of their hearts without saying anything publicly.

It doesn't matter what they think of Josie, if she sincerely suggests that she can accept it, but she will never allow anyone to overstep her, otherwise the whole company will be messed up in a short time.These words are not threats, they are very harsh, and let everyone have a clear understanding of whose side they should stand on.

Someone's expression changed again and again, probably because they were dissatisfied, but they didn't dare to say it directly, they just said: "Then this is the end of the matter, the cooperation was discussed well, and now you suddenly give up, causing the company to suffer huge losses for no reason? Mr. Qiao, it's not that we have to question you, but if you think about it carefully, is this appropriate?"

Josie took it easy, "Then what does Mr. Xu think is appropriate, or what do you think I should do?"

The audience froze.

At the end of the meeting, the ending was not very friendly, and the old slickers almost left the meeting room with dark faces.

Secretary Chen followed behind and told Josie about her next plan, but she still hesitated for a while, and after walking far away, she asked carefully, "Mr. Qiao, what are your plans for the next step?"

His attitude is sincere, unlike those people, he can clearly recognize his position.

Josie's expression eased, "Do as you said first, I'm going to meet someone tonight."

Secretary Chen agreed without any doubts.

Josie looked at him, "I'll take care of this matter properly, don't worry too much."

If she dared to pour that glass of wine, she would be responsible for her actions to the end.

Secretary Chen paused for a moment, his face softened, and he said firmly, "We all believe in you."

We, of course, have Secretary Fang.Josie was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, and completed the things to be done today according to the schedule.

Later, Zhou Meihe came to look for someone, but Fang Mi, who was tall and big, knew exactly what happened. Knowing what Zhou Meihe was going to do, she just asked Josie to bow her head and apologize to Boss Lu. She thought that face and dignity were secondary Yes, take the initiative to admit your mistakes and get back together without affecting the cooperative relationship between the two companies. This is the simplest and most direct way.

"Madam, this is a company, please go back." Secretary Fang said firmly.

"I have something to do with Josie, it's urgent." Zhou Meihe didn't give up, "Leave after finishing talking."

Secretary Fang still refused, "Xiao Qiao is always at work, please don't embarrass us."

In short, it was to stop Zhou Meihe from seeing Josie. In the end, Zhou Meihe still left, but instead of leaving the company, she went to discuss matters with those high-level executives.

It was about seven o'clock, and the sky was completely dark.

After finishing her work, Josie didn't even have time to take a sip of water, so she drove to find someone.

It was Li Xunian who was looking for.

Li Xunian has a wide network of contacts and eats well. In recent years, he has done well in the business field. The most important thing is that he has an old friend surnamed Ji who is in the field of health food, which can be as good as four or five bosses Lu.The old friend Josie surnamed Ji had met him before, and heard about it from Qiao Jianliang. Qiao Jianliang wanted to establish a cooperative relationship with him, but he still couldn't get along.

She called Li Xunian in the afternoon and said she was going to visit.

On the other end of the phone, Li Xunian seemed to be in a good mood, agreed very readily, and asked him to hurry over for dinner.

Josie brought a bunch of gifts there, and she was already prepared in her heart. As soon as she entered, she met Fu Bei who shouldn't be here.

Fu Bei is playing chess with Li Xiannian, it seems that he has already arrived.

Josie was taken aback, and her doubts turned into doubts, so she called out first: "Ms. Li."

Li Xunian smiled kindly, but he was not polite, he agreed, and then asked her to make tea, and he seemed to have guessed why this was happening, before she opened her mouth, she said: "I already know, that's fine, change it." I will take you to see Lao Ji tomorrow."

Josie was surprised at first, and then looked at Fu Bei on the side.

Fu Bei only raised his eyelids and cast a sideways glance.This person was dressed very formally today, and came to visit Li Xunian with all manner of courtesy, and just caught up with her.

"If it's a big deal, just make a phone call. Everyone has to make a special trip here." Li Xunian said again, although there was a hint of complaint in his tone, he couldn't help smiling. His old man has always had a bad temper. Today But it's easy to talk, and I don't know why.

Josie didn't do anything, it must have something to do with Fu Bei who came first, after all, she was still at Li's house, it was not good for Josie to ask directly in front of Li Xunian, and she didn't know what was going on until after she left.

Fu Bei made a quick move and did a little favor.

On Sunday, Josie met Boss Ji under Li Xunian's matchmaking line, and had a well-prepared interview. Boss Ji was very face-saving and straightforward, and he had no pretensions. When and where to meet.

The words are not clear, but the intention to cooperate is already very obvious.

The process should not be too smooth, and this matter was easily resolved.Josie went to the hospital that day, and everything went well. The day when the contract was officially signed was also the time when Qiao Jianliang was really out of danger.

This process was not short, but it was extremely busy, so busy that Josie couldn't feel how fast the time passed, and he couldn't remember how long he hadn't gotten along with Fu Bei, or even said a few words.She has been staying in the company for a while, and she didn't even go to the university town. Fu Bei seemed to be very busy, until the day of signing the contract, after she had dinner with Boss Ji and his party, he drove over to pick her up.

Josie seemed in a good mood, and asked Secretary Chen and the others to go first, while he went to find Fu Bei.

Fu Bei came directly from school. He was wearing a small suit like her. Today, he changed to a car with a wider cabin. Josie didn't pay attention to which brand it was, so he opened the door and sat down in the passenger seat.

"How is today?" Fu Bei asked first.

"Very good." Josie said, put the bag in front of her, and turned her head to look, "It went well, the contract was signed, and there are still some follow-up matters, which should be resolved tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Fu Bei started the car, "That's good."

It's been a long time since the two of them have been alone together in such a quiet way, and now they are talking like they are reunited after a long absence. Maybe this day is too special and there are too many good things. When Fu Bei asked if there was any place he wanted to go, Josie's mind froze. , Said that he wanted to go to the movies.

Then go.

I watched a romance movie, the plot was pretentious and had no content, the story of the love triangle was generally unwatchable, it was too tragic, the biggest highlight of the whole movie was the looks of the hero and heroine, wasting an hour or two in vain.

After watching the movie, Josie wanted to relax, so Fu Bei drove to the suburbs, and then to the lonely and empty river.

The moonlight is hazy, and the river flows forward.

Inside the car, Josie's eyes were blindfolded, so she couldn't see anything, and her hands were bound by a tie, unable to break free.
