"Mr. He, Deputy Director Su, Mr. Peng, and Ms. Yang, please have tea." A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses said in the VIP meeting room of a bank. There was a long conference table in the meeting room. He sat opposite He Yiyuan, Su Tiantian, Peng Jianyue, and Yang Yuping.

The middle-aged man was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt with the bank's logo delicately embroidered on the left chest, a simple dark blue tie, black trousers, a black leather belt, and black shiny leather shoes. He was dressed in the bank's uniform. He was Pan Weibao, the president of this bank, and people generally called him Pan Xing.

He Yiyuan, Su Tiantian, Peng Jianyue, and Yang Yuping all said politely, "Thank you, Pan Xing."

Pan Weibo's eyes flashed, and he said apologetically, "Deputy Director Su is pregnant, so it's not good for her to drink tea. Xiao Duan, pour Deputy Director Su a glass of warm water."

Xiao Duan - Duan Boyan, was sitting one seat away from Pan Weibo. In fact, when he saw Su Tiantian just now, his expression was a little unnatural, and it could be said that he was forcing a smile. He knew that Su Tiantian was married to Liu Jingze. His friend Liu Yunquan said that he was transferred to the credit department of this bank branch this month, and he didn't expect to meet Su Tiantian here.

Su Tiantian had a good memory, and Duan Boyan left a bad impression on her, so she recognized him at a glance. She smiled gently and charmingly: "Pan Xing, no need, I brought a water cup, thank you." After that, she took out the thermos cup from the canvas bag.

Pan Weibo said, "It seems that you have packed a lot of stuff in this canvas bag. You go out with a brand-name bag and a canvas bag worth ten or eight yuan."

Su Tiantian smiled sweetly: "There is no other way, this canvas bag can hold more things."

Sitting next to Pan Weibo was Yuan Jiali, the credit department manager. She wore a fitted white short-sleeved shirt with a small bow at the collar. The bank's logo was delicately embroidered on the left side of her chest. She also wore a pair of pearl earrings and a knee-length black one-piece skirt. She looked dignified and refined. Her hair was tied up, revealing her smooth forehead, giving her a neat and capable look.

Yuan Jiali smiled sincerely and said in a friendly yet solemn manner, "Hello, Mr. He. We are very pleased to discuss loan financing with you. We are fully aware of the huge development potential of your business. Based on your current scale and financial situation, we have carefully designed this loan financing plan. The loan amount is 28.3 million yuan. As for the interest rate, we have considered the best market level for you."

Yuan Jiali turned to Duan Boyan and said, "Xiao Duan, show the loan contract to Mr. He."

Duan Boyan stood up, leaned forward slightly, and handed the contract to He Yiyuan with both hands. He Yiyuan did not take it. Peng Jianyue took the contract and said, "Thank you." Then he handed the contract to Su Tiantian.

Su Tiantian looked at the contract carefully.

Pan Weibo said, "Mr. He, I didn't see you the last time I went to your company to assess its situation. Vice President Xiao said you were on a business trip, so I finally got to see you this time."

He Yiyuan said, "Pan Xing, I'm going on a business trip for a week in two days. If it weren't for the loan contract that required my signature, I wouldn't want to leave the company. I have a lot of urgent things to deal with."

Pan Weibo said, "I know you're very busy. Mr. Zheng Qijin said last time that he'd have to wait in line if he wanted to treat you to a meal."

He Yiyuan said politely: "Mr. Zheng just likes to joke around. It's me who wants to invite him to dinner and I have to queue up."

After reading the contract, Su Tiantian placed it on the table in front of He Yiyuan, and ran her fingers over the data on it one by one. He Yiyuan nodded.

Pan Weibo said, "Tiantian, you didn't even ask our bank for a loan to buy a shop. Why don't you increase our credit department's sales?"

Su Tiantian smiled and said, "Pan Xing, if I find you, I won't dare go back to my parents' home, for fear that my fifth uncle will come after me."

Pan Weibo laughed heartily. "Yes, your fifth uncle is the credit manager. You really can't let him down. But aren't you afraid he'll be angry if your company takes out a loan from us?"

Su Tiantian said, "Public affairs are public affairs, private affairs are private affairs. How can he be angry with me? Besides, Uncle Zheng also said that your bank is good. Who told your bank to give our company a lower interest rate and a higher credit limit?"

There are always some differences between state-owned banks and commercial banks.

Pan Weibo said, "I have to thank Uncle Zheng for the recommendation. Ziyi is my classmate, and I'm very familiar with the Zheng family. Last time, Ziyi said you were his sister-in-law, and I was shocked. No way, Ziyang didn't invite me to his wedding? Later I found out that you are Mr. Liu's wife, so it's normal for Ziyi to call you sister-in-law."

Su Tiantian said: "At that time, Vice President Xiao said that Uncle Zheng recommended your bank, so I went back and told my husband about it. He said you attended our wedding banquet, but I really didn't recognize you at first."

Pan Weibo said, "Yes, I attended your wedding banquet. There were too many guests that day and you were too busy, so it's normal that you didn't recognize me. Mr. Liu and Ziyang sometimes come to our bank for business."

He Yiyuan finished reading the contract and said, "No problem."

Yuan Jiali said, "Our bank has a dedicated team to follow up on the entire loan process to ensure it's efficient and smooth. Thank you for choosing our bank. Mr. He, the contract requires your signature as the legal representative, along with your fingerprints and official seal. We'll also need photos later. Let me show you where to sign."

Yuan Jiali walked to He Yiyuan's right side, pointed out the place where he was to sign, and handed him a black pen.

Duan Boyan took out the ink pad.

Peng Jianyue took out the official seal from his briefcase.

Yang Yuping, who was sitting next to Su Tiantian, whispered, "Deputy Director Su, it's almost four o'clock. I need to go to another bank to do some work. If the driver takes me there, can you take Mr. He's car back?"

Su Tiantian said: "Go ahead. You don't have to go back to the company after you finish your work. I will help you to sign the card tomorrow."

Yang Yuping said, "Then I'll leave." Yang Yuping stood up and left the bank's meeting room.

After the loan procedures were completed, Pan Weibo said, "We'll submit the documents to the head office for review. If there are no problems, the loan will be released within three days. Then we'll call Deputy Director Su to come over and handle the paperwork. It's tea time now. I've had some snacks prepared. Let's go over there and have some."

He Yiyuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a polite smile, and said, "Pan Xing, you are so polite. I have something urgent to do and need to go back to the company. Next time I will find time to treat you to afternoon tea."

Pan Weibo said tactfully, "Mr. He is a big businessman. So you can get busy first. We can meet again next time. I'll take you out."

He Yiyuan stood up and shook hands with Pan Weibo: "Thank you, Pan Xing, for your support of our company."

Su Tiantian slowly stood up, and He Yiyuan immediately reached out to support her arm.

Pan Weibo said, "It looks like Tiantian will treat us to ginger vinegar soon."

Su Tiantian smiled faintly: "I can't decide whether to invite guests or not, and I don't care about family matters."

Pan Weibo said, "Then I'd like to ask Mr. Liu. Come on, everyone, please come this way."

Peng Jianyue naturally picked up Su Tiantian's canvas bag.

Peng Jianyue and Su Tiantian followed behind Pan Weibao and He Yiyuan, and behind them were Duan Boyan and Yuan Jiali.
