Chapter 135: Showing Goodwill

Han looked at Gu Ningwei in surprise and muttered to himself, "Who is calling me so urgently?"

Gu Ningwei frowned: "Is it something about your mother?"

Apart from Liu Suping who might have an emergency, no one else would be so anxious to call Han Que.

Han frowned and couldn't help getting nervous. She hadn't visited Liu Suping for a long time and really didn't know if any emergency would happen.

"What should we do then?" Her voice trembled.

"Don't panic, call back and ask what's going on before you think of a solution." Gu Ningwei said confidently, and then comforted her: "It'll be okay. You have the numbers of the nurses and the hospital saved, so maybe it's not theirs."

As they were talking, Han Que's phone rang again.

Gu Ningwei glanced at her and said, "It's okay, answer the phone first."

Han Que's hands were still trembling slightly. She answered the phone and said "Hello".

"Mr. Han? Oh, you finally answered the phone. I'm Xu Chun." The other party said with a smile.

Xu Chun?

Han was stunned. She glanced at Gu Ningwei who was driving beside her and said silently, "Xu Chun."

Gu Ningwei raised his eyebrows and was also stunned.

Han quickly smiled and said, "Oh, it's Mr. Xu. Sorry, my phone was not with me just now, so I didn't receive your call. Sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay. I guess you didn't save my phone number, so you didn't answer. We usually don't answer unfamiliar numbers nowadays." Xu Chun said.

"Oh, no, I really don't have my cell phone with me, otherwise how dare I not answer your call..." Han was still very humble. She was muttering in her heart, but she spoke very politely and was very courteous.

"Well, I asked Manager Chen for your phone number. Hey, you said that we have met so many times, but we didn't leave each other's contact information or add each other on WeChat or something. It's really a pity. How about this, you add my WeChat. My WeChat ID is also my mobile phone number. If you have any questions, you can contact me directly." Xu Chun said in a familiar tone.

"Oh, okay, okay." Han quickly agreed, "Thank you, Mr. Xu, for taking the time to care about us."

She still spoke very politely and modestly, but couldn't help but look at Gu Ningwei in confusion.

What does Xu Chun mean by his sudden show of goodwill?

The last time we met, she was very assertive and insisted on following their pricing system. How come her attitude changed 180 degrees in such a short time?

Xu Chun continued to get close to her, asking about her recent work situation. She also said that she had watched Han Que's live broadcast and found it very effective. "Oh, just based on your face, President Han, you are the living signboard of your Zhening Company. You are so beautiful and have such good skin. You don't even need advertising..."

She said and laughed.

Han had no choice but to be polite and modest, waiting to see what the other party would say.

After a while, Xu Chun said, "Oh, by the way, I'd like to invite you and Mr. Gu to have a quick meal. When would be convenient for you?"

"Mr. Gu?" Han asked, then looked up at Gu Ningwei. Gu Ningwei glanced at her and shook his head slightly.

"Mr. Xu, you're welcome." Han understood, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Gu, he's been on a business trip recently. Chengguang's affairs are too busy. He's almost always busy with things over there. If you have any requests, it's the same if you tell me."

"That's true. After all, you're now a major shareholder of Zhening Company, so I'm telling you the same thing." Xu Chun said with a smile, "Mr. Gu loves you very much. He transferred all his shares to you and even let you control the shares. Men like him are really rare. Mr. Han, you're so lucky."

"No, Mr. Gu is too busy. His main focus is on Chengguang. The business there is bigger and there are more things to do. I am just more familiar with this place."

Han said calmly.

Modern people are really good at taking advantage of the situation. Xu Chun is well-informed. She got the news right after Zhening completed the industrial and commercial changes. No wonder her attitude has changed.

However, considering the scale of Chunyi Company, the reason why Xu Chun personally came out to entertain Han Que was definitely not as simple as her getting shares and becoming the controlling shareholder of Zhening.

She said, "Mr. Xu, there's no need for dinner. Please don't be polite. Otherwise, we can have some tea and listen to your advice. Chunyi Company has grown so big, you must have a lot of valuable experience, I need to learn from you."

Han deliberately said modestly that she wanted to see what Xu Chun's real intention was anyway.

"Okay, then let's have afternoon tea tomorrow, how about that?" Xu Chun said immediately.

"OK."

Han agreed, and Xu Chun confirmed the time and place with her before reluctantly hanging up the phone. Finally, he specifically reminded her: "Hey, don't forget to add me on WeChat."

Han put down his phone, breathed a long sigh of relief, and leaned lazily on the back of his chair: "Oh my god, I was scared to death. Who did I think was so anxious to see me? It turned out to be her."

Gu Ningwei smiled and said, "I told you not to panic. Look at how flustered you were just now..."

Han glared at him disapprovingly: "You were the one who said something might have happened to my mom, otherwise I wouldn't be so panicked. Now, besides my mom, who else can I care about so much?"

"Hey..." Gu Ningwei frowned and snorted: "What about me? Where do you put me?"

Han knew he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly smiled and patted his chest: "Of course it's in this position. I haven't finished speaking yet. Besides my mother, there's also you, okay?"

Gu Ningwei chuckled: "That's about right."

Han secretly rolled his eyes at him and muttered quietly, "Small-minded."

She sighed, thought for a moment, and then asked Gu Ningwei, "Why did Xu Chun suddenly change her attitude? You don't know how arrogant she was when I first met her. She was always sarcastic."

Gu Ningwei glanced at her: "Really? Why is she so rude to you?"

"She's Lu Xiaoping's godmother and his mother's best friend. She thinks I'm not worthy of her godson and that I'm using Lu Xiaoping to gain resources, so she looks down on me."

Han said bitterly.

"What about you? Did you use Lu Xiaoping to obtain resources?" Gu Ningwei said with a half-smile.

"How is that possible?" Han paused, then looked up and saw Gu Ningwei's teasing expression, then continued, "How could it not be possible? It was thanks to him that we were able to sell our products to Chunyi Company and achieve a top three performance ranking that quarter."

"Then you can't blame him for his attitude towards you. Who told you to date that little brat Lu Xiaoping? Didn't I tell you the first time we met that he wasn't worthy of you? And you still complained to me..."

Gu Ningwei said with a hum.

Han snorted: "If I don't know Lu Xiaoping, how can I know you?"

"Even if you don't know him, I will know you. This is called fate meeting each other thousands of miles apart. The fate between us is inescapable."

Gu Ningwei said this with a firm tone.

Han was at a loss for words. Whenever matters of the heart were mentioned, he would become as serious as a child.

After a while, Han said again: "By the way, Xu Chun doesn't want to see me just because I'm a shareholder of Zhening Company. The person she wants to see most is you. Why don't you meet her?"

Gu Ningwei shook his head. "It's not the right time yet. She wants to see you, so she must want to discuss cooperation with us. But she's very shrewd, the kind of person who won't do anything without profit. So, she must have high expectations for being able to lower herself to entertain you like this. I'm not going out now to give her some wiggle room."

Han nodded after a moment's hesitation. "Indeed, it must be something more than a small profit that could make her lower her status. I don't know what she's planning on doing with our Zhening, or what kind of benefit she's seeking. Anyway, she knows I won't supply her with the goods at the price she wants, so what's her reason for that..."

She frowned and shook her head, a little confused.

"Don't think about it. Let's talk about it when we meet. Let her speak first."

Han nodded: "It depends on what she wants."

The next day, Xu Chun and Han Que met at the agreed teahouse.

Gu Ningwei asked the driver to take Han Que to the place on time. As soon as he entered the private room, Han Que saw that Xu Chun had already arrived.

She was wearing a dark green soft satin suit with a diamond brooch on her collar, her hair was tied up, and she had light makeup on her face, giving her an extraordinary demeanor.

From a distance, he extended his hand towards Han Que with a smile, and said with a smile: "Boss Han, we really meet again."

Han Que also had a smile on his face as he praised Xu Chun for her youth, beauty and elegant temperament.

The two exchanged a few polite pleasantries.

Han looked around and asked deliberately, "Why didn't Manager Chen come?"

Xu Chun smiled slightly. "We're just discussing some private matters. There's no need for them to show up. If it's about purchasing, just let Old Chen contact your girl directly. Why would we need to show up? Right?"

This suddenly elevated Han Que's status and made him an entrepreneur on par with Xu Chun.

Han was polite again and again: "How can I compare with Mr. Xu? I'm just an errand boy."

"Hey, that's not right. Auntie, I'm not saying this to you, but you do everything yourself. It's good to say that you can handle every detail, but the people below you don't have room to grow. After a long time, they will also have opinions. Besides, we women can't be too tired. You said that there are so many things to do in the company. Can we handle it alone? Right?"

Xu Chun said this affectionately, and his tone really turned Han Que into a junior whom he had watched grow up.

This woman is really amazing. Her attitude is like a chameleon, and there is no sense of incongruity at all.

Han secretly admired him, but for some reason he felt very awkward.

She smiled and said, "Boss Xu is right. I need to listen to your guidance more."

The two of them exchanged pleasantries and chatted for a while. Xu Chun didn't mention her intentions, but Han didn't ask either. Since it wasn't about purchasing goods, he just waited and saw how she would beat around the bush.

Xu Chun added water to her teacup, looked at her with a smile, and said, "Han Que, I think you are really getting more and more beautiful. You have changed a lot in this period of time."

Han thought to himself, apart from getting fat, when did I become beautiful? Xu Chun is really good at talking nonsense.

Xu Chun sighed and said, "No wonder they say that fame nourishes people. Look at your demeanor now. It's really different from before. I said, how can Xiaoping be worthy of you? How can he compare with Mr. Gu? Don't tell me, I watched the live broadcast that day, and it was the first time I saw Mr. Gu. He is really handsome..."

She said, shaking her head slightly.

Han sneered inwardly, but still said politely, "Lu Xiaoping is a good person, just a little young. Mr. Gu is older than him, so of course he is more mature and more tolerant of me."

She said it lightly and didn't want to say anything bad about Lu Xiaoping.

There is nothing to compare. Lu Xiaoping was not bad to her back then.

"That's true. It's better for men to look for those who are mature and have seen the world." Xu Chun sighed.

Han was silent. She didn't know how to respond. There were rumors that Xu Chun also had a boyfriend who was much younger than her, but she didn't know whether it was true or not.

After thinking about it, I could only say calmly: "It depends on each person's needs. Everyone is different."

Xu Chun smiled, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "By the way, Han Que, the main reason I asked you to meet this time is to discuss with you whether there is any possibility of cooperation between our Chunyi Company and your Zhening Company?"
