Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Make an Apologise to Her

"Mr. Si, you're too polite." Qin Mian didn't understand what he meant, so he politely declined. "I still need to stay and write the appointment letter, so I won't be attending the dinner."

"No rush." ​​Si Tu turned the phone in his hand and insisted, "The appointment letter can be written and sent tomorrow."

"But..." Qin Mian was still a little nervous and hesitated to speak.

At this time, Zhou Shumin also quickly came out to speak, "The boss is sympathetic to his subordinates. If you are asked to go, then go."

Qin Mian clenched her palms. Si Tu stared at her and asked with a half-smile, "It's just a meal. What are you worried about, Manager Qin?"

Worried that he would take revenge on me personally.

After all, half an hour ago, he was rear-ended.

However, now that things have come to this, if Qin Mian refuses again, it will offend him and might even offend him more.

He was about to take over the position of president and the boss of the entire group, so Qin Mian had to be careful in his dealings. So, after weighing the pros and cons, she readily agreed and said, "Okay, then I'll obey your command. Thank you, President Si."

Before leaving for the dinner, Qin Mian went back to the Human Resources Department.

Before I even entered the door, I heard the shouting voice of the administrative manager Yang Min.

"Where's your manager? He crashed the car, but he's not responsible? He ran away?"

Qin Mian walked in on high heels. "Where can I go during working hours? Manager Yang, stop talking nonsense."

Yang Min turned around and saw her. She snorted and sneered, "Manager Qin, you crashed the car, you have to take responsibility!"

As he said this, he laughed with glee and crossed his arms across his chest.

It was as if he had finally caught Qin Mian making a mistake. He was secretly happy in his heart, but it showed on his face. He was so excited.

The Administration Department and the Human Resources Department have always had a bad relationship. This is because the two departments have a certain degree of overlap in certain functions and are under the same leadership. When assigning tasks, the Administration Department often passes the buck and pushes the responsibility to the Human Resources Department. Qin Mian from the Human Resources Department is no pushover and will not take on too much responsibility and take the blame for others. The two sides will inevitably come into conflict, so it can be said that the two departments have a long-standing grudge.

Therefore, Qin Mian didn't find it strange at all that Yang Min came to ask for accountability in such a threatening manner.

"When did I say I wasn't responsible?" Qin Mian walked around her and went to his office inside. "It's not like I didn't tell the security guard on duty."

However, the security guard on duty belongs to the administrative department, so I don’t know how he reported to Yang Min.

"I have already reported the case to the police. Once the follow-up results come out, I will naturally handle it."

Qin Mian said as he packed up the items on his desk and grabbed his bag.

Seeing that she was calm and composed, not panicking at all, Yang Min hummed, "That's best."

With that, she shook her hair, turned around and walked out in her high heels.

It was time to get off work. Qin Mian packed his bag, changed into flat shoes, and walked out of the office.

Lin Xinrui was also packing up to get off work. She caught a glimpse of her long, white legs walking by. She couldn't help but look over and said, "Manager Qin, your legs are so long, straight, and white. I'm so envious!"

It was summer, and the female colleagues were all wearing half-length professional skirts. Qin Mian, who was tall and had long legs, looked particularly good in them.

However, as a beauty, she was already accustomed to such compliments. Qin Mian turned around, smiled at her, gladly accepted the compliment, said goodbye to her and said he would see her tomorrow, then left the office.

After clocking out, Qin Mian read the message from Zhou Shumin and took the elevator downstairs.

As she came out of the elevator, Si Tu's yellow Lamborghini sports car drove over and stopped in front of her.

Qin Mian was looking around for her boss's car when the convertible of the sports car in front of her opened. The man in the driver's seat turned his head and looked at her.

"Get in the car." Si Tu held the steering wheel with one hand and curled the corner of his lips towards her.

He is a person who even smiles ostentatiously.

But he was sitting in the driver's seat now. If Qin Mian got in the passenger seat, it would be like treating him as the driver. If she drove for him, his sports car was so expensive that she wouldn't be able to afford the compensation if it was accidentally bumped or scratched.

The psychological pressure is really great.

At this moment, a black car slowly braked to a stop behind the yellow sports car.

Qin Mian turned his head, took a look, confirmed that it was Zhou Shumin's car, and thanked Si Tu, "Mr. Si, I'll just take Mr. Zhou's car, thank you."

After saying that, she hurried to the car behind.

Si Tu was stunned for a moment, then turned his head away and laughed at himself with a half-smile.

Before today, any little girl who saw him would try her best to get into his car, but now that he took the initiative, she ran away instead.

This was the first time in my life that I was rejected by a girl.

He stared at the rearview mirror, watching Qin Mian get into the car, and nudged his cheek with the tip of his tongue, not knowing whether he was unhappy or if his desire to conquer was aroused.

He hummed softly, restarted the car, and led the way out of the garage.

Several cars followed one after another.

Arriving at the banquet restaurant, the group walked into the private room.

Those who came today were all senior leaders. After Si Tu took his seat at the head of the table, the others took their seats in order according to their rank.

In such occasions, overstepping one's bounds is the most taboo.

Among all the people present, Qin Mian, the human resources manager, had the lowest position, so she tactfully chose the serving seat closest to the door.

This position happened to be opposite to the upper position. When she raised her eyes, she saw Si Tu looking at her.

It was a bit awkward to suddenly meet the boss's eyes. Qin Mian looked away, picked up the water glass on the table and took a sip.

Si Tu stared at her without blinking, without any hesitation, and his eyes were full of aggression.

When they were in the president's office, he suddenly asked Qin Mian to accompany him, which made everyone feel a little weird. Now he looked at Qin Mian with such eyes, and everyone at the table couldn't help but think too much.

However, everyone was watching their noses and their hearts. Even though they had some understanding in their hearts, no one was acting rashly for the time being.

They are not completely sure yet and need to observe carefully before making further plans.

For example, move Qin Mian to sit next to Si Tu.

**

Soon after the waiter poured the drinks, the executives began to toast Si Tu.

They toasted and said flattering words, still in order of rank.

Once you start drinking, it's hard to stop.

This was Qin Mian's first time attending a dinner with senior executives, and he didn't know how they would handle alcohol, so he was cautious. When it was his turn, he stood up with his teacup and said, "I have to drive everyone later, so I'll have tea instead of wine."

After all, she is a girl outside, and if she drinks too much, it is easy for something to happen.

This made her defensive.

Now, she took the initiative to put herself in the position of a caregiver and said that she was serving them, which at least seemed reasonable on the surface.

However, Zhou Shumin was worried that Si Tu would be unhappy, so he immediately tried to persuade her.

"What are you talking about? Just call a designated driver, you..."

"It's okay." Si Tu smiled and picked up his glass. He even stood up from his seat and raised his glass to her. "I hit Manager Qin's car this afternoon. This glass should be my toast to her to apologize to her."

Qin Mian was stunned for a moment, feeling surprised and embarrassed.

What was surprising was that I didn't expect him to bring it up suddenly. What was embarrassing was why did he bring it up suddenly in front of so many people?

The thing I worried about finally happened.

She suspected that Si Tu was plotting against her.

After all, the rear-end collision in the afternoon was clearly caused by her sudden braking.

Although, there was a reason why she braked suddenly.

But now, he turned around and said he wanted to apologize to her?

As soon as he said this, everyone present looked towards Qin Mian.

Originally, everyone was still trying to figure out why Si Tu insisted on having a small manager like her come over, thinking that he had a crush on her, but now, it turned out to be another matter?

Everyone even breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that they had not taken the initiative to move Qin Mian to Si Tu's side.

He was indeed very annoyed by the fact that he had been rear-ended for no reason. Qin Mian thought for a moment and took the opportunity to explain, saying, "The responsibility does not lie with Mr. Si. It was a chain reaction caused by the illegal driving of the car in front. I have already called the police to investigate. Mr. Si is also a victim."

The sports car Si Tu was driving had a low ride, and his field of vision was limited. In addition, after the rear-end collision, the car in front had already turned the corner, so he had no idea that there was a car in front of Qin Mian.

"Ahaha, so that's what's going on." Zhou Shumin stepped in to smooth things over. "We're all family. I don't think Manager Qin will mind, right?"

Qin Mian smiled and said yes.

"Thank you, Manager Qin, for your magnanimity." Si Tu smiled, raised his glass, and took a sip.

His reaction made Qin Mian feel unreal.

At the intersection in the afternoon, he looked quite annoyed, but why did he seem to really think he had made a mistake now?

Qin Mian raised his glass unconsciously, responded, and took a sip of tea.

And this little episode, which was neither good nor bad, was resolved smoothly.

Si Tu was about to take office as a new official. In the following period, all the senior executives found various excuses to flatter him, and drinking was inevitable. For a while, the box was filled with the clinking of glasses.

When the dinner was over, only Qin Mian hadn't drunk a drop of alcohol.

After all, from the very beginning, Si Tu allowed her to drink tea instead of wine, so naturally, others did not dare to force her.

When leaving, everyone still waited for Si Tu to go out first.

When he passed by Qin Mian, he suddenly stopped, took the car keys out of his pocket, handed them to Qin Mian, and said with a smile, "Then I'll trouble you, Manager Qin."

The superior's attitude was as if it was his due, leaving her no room for refusal and assuming she would accept it.

Just now, Qin Mian's reason for replacing wine with tea was to take care of his leader and drive for him, so at the moment, she really had no reason to refuse.

However, she still glanced at Zhou Shumin.

When she made this excuse, the "leader" she mentioned was referring to her direct supervisor.

Zhou Shumin completely ignored her request for help and even hurriedly agreed on her behalf, "Yes, yes, yes, Manager Qin, you take Mr. Si back, and we'll just wait for the designated driver."

He even did her a favor.

Qin Mian had no choice but to take the car keys handed to him.

It's not that she was unwilling to give Si Tu a ride, but she was not familiar with him, and it was inevitable that she would feel awkward sitting in the limited space of the car. In addition, he was her future boss, which put invisible pressure on her. And there was also his Lamborghini sports car worth tens of millions, so she was really worried that she would accidentally scratch him and get into trouble.

But now that things have come to this, she can only treat it as a task she has completed seriously.

After getting in the car, she first carefully understood the driving difference between this sports car and an ordinary car. Si Tu leaned in the passenger seat and stared at her closely.

This was the first time he had looked at her so closely till today.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and his vision was still a little blurry, probably because he had been drinking.

After Qin Mian understood, he was still worried and carefully promised him, "Boss Si, this is my first time driving this kind of luxury sports car. If I get a little scratched, you won't hold me responsible, right?"

"Of course..." I will concentrate my efforts to open it for you.

Before Qin Mian finished speaking, he looked up and unexpectedly met his gaze.

He leaned back low, almost in a half-lying position, his hazy eyes looking somewhat ambiguous. Thinking that he had been drinking, Qin Mian blinked and asked, "Are you drunk?"

She thought he was drunk, which was why he behaved like that.

Si Tu fluttered his eyelashes, smiled, and asked, "What do you think?"
