Chapter 12 Cooperation among three parties
Li Ruochu changed her clothes in the room, carefully tidied her hair in front of the mirror, and after making sure that she was dressed neatly, she walked downstairs with elegant steps.
Before I even walked near the kitchen, a strong aroma of food wafted into my nose. The aroma, a mixture of the softness of the rice and the freshness of the dishes, permeated the air.
Walking into the kitchen, Wu Ma, who was busy, heard the footsteps and turned around immediately.
As soon as she saw Li Ruochu, Wu Ma's originally serious face was instantly filled with a flattering smile: "Madam, you are awake. The master asked me to prepare breakfast. He specifically told you to go to work after breakfast."
Li Ruochu raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling a little surprised at Wu Ma's attitude.
In the past, as someone who came out of the old Shen family house, Aunt Wu's mind was focused on Shen Yubai's mother. Although her attitude towards her wife was not cold, it was definitely not enthusiastic either.
But today he seemed like a different person, so respectful.
Li Ruochu knew clearly in his heart that Shen Yubai must have explained something to Wu Ma again.
Li Ruochu walked to the dining table, gently pulled out a chair, and slowly sat down.
There was a bowl of steaming porridge on the table. The rice porridge was thick and filled with rice fragrance, with wisps of hot steam rising from the surface.
She picked up the spoon, gently scooped up a spoonful of porridge, put it into her mouth and tasted it carefully.
When the bowl of porridge was finished, Li Ruochu put down the spoon, raised his head slightly, looked at Aunt Wu, and said in a calm voice: "Aunt Wu, no matter what Shen Yubai said to you, you really don't have to change your attitude towards me. It won't be long before the hostess you really like will live here."
When Aunt Wu heard this, her smiling face froze for a moment, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.
But she quickly adjusted herself and put on that professional smile again, saying with a slightly awkward tone: "Madam, you are joking. You have always been the only mistress in this family. How could there be a new mistress?"
This time, Li Ruochu did not respond to Wu Ma's words. She just gently pulled out the tissue and wiped the corners of her mouth gracefully. Then she stood up, picked up the bag beside her, and walked towards the door.
Before going out, she inadvertently glanced through the window and saw Aunt Wu secretly taking out her cell phone, with her back to her, dialing a number nervously.
Judging from the situation, he is probably reporting to the person in the old house again.
Li Ruochu drove to the company, parked the car steadily in the underground garage, locked the door and then entered the elevator.
The elevator door slowly opened on the first floor, and Jiang Mu was seen holding a thick stack of documents in both hands, leaning forward slightly, and walking into the elevator with difficulty.
The documents were piled so high that they almost blocked his view. His forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and a few strands of hair were soaked with sweat and stuck to his cheeks.
"Secretary Li? What a coincidence! I didn't expect to run into you in the elevator."
"Why did you bring so many documents here? Hasn't the contract with Shenggu been finalized yet?" Upon seeing this, Li Ruochu immediately stepped forward to help, stretched out his hand to take some of the documents, his movements were natural and skillful.
Jiang Mu felt the weight in his hand lighten instantly. He heaved a sigh of relief, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and smiled gratefully: "The contract has been implemented, and the construction site has already started. These are the contract documents for the next three cooperations. I guess the people from the Chu family will be here soon!"
When he heard the words "three contracts", relevant information immediately emerged in Li Ruochu's mind.
This project is a government plan to build a highway, which is vital to the entire Haicheng city.
Because of this, many companies in Haicheng have participated in the bidding. After all, if they can successfully undertake this project, their status in Haicheng will definitely be greatly enhanced.
When the bidding was first launched, three companies won the bid. Coincidentally, the prices calculated by these three companies were all extremely suitable, so the government finally decided to let these three companies jointly take over the project.
It now seems that the funding from the government has been approved and the project is about to enter the implementation stage.
"I guess we'll be busy working together again in the next few months." Jiang Mu's face was full of smiles.
On weekdays, the bosses of various groups rarely meet each other, and these specific matters are mostly handled by their secretaries or assistants.
The Feng family, the Chu family, and the Shen family are the three major business giants in Haicheng. Naturally, the people around them are all extraordinary and are by no means ordinary people.
Li Ruochu shook his head slowly at this moment, a trace of helplessness and loneliness flashed in his eyes, and he said softly: "I'm afraid there is no way to cooperate with you this time."
According to the degree of care that Shen Yubai showed towards Gu Qiuying, which was almost doting, she knew in her heart that such an important project would most likely be handed directly to Gu Qiuying.
Gu Qiuying has not achieved any substantial results since joining the company, and this project is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for her to increase her value.
Hearing this, Jiang Mu's face was instantly filled with confusion: "How could it be? You are the top secretary in the company. With your ability, you are more than qualified to be a project manager. No matter what, Mr. Shen would not be so partial, right?"
Li Ruochu smiled bitterly, his eyes showing a hint of sadness, and said softly, "How could it be that? Didn't I have to take the blame for what happened last time?"
"What did you say?" Jiang Mu's eyes widened instantly, his face full of disbelief. "Last time, it was Gu Qiuying who handed over the documents to us, and she also cooperated with us in the later stage. How can she blame you?"
Li Ruochu just spread his hands helplessly and sighed softly. Obviously, he didn't want to dwell on this topic too much. What's the point of explaining more?
Jiang Mu looked at Li Ruochu's appearance, his heart full of sympathy. He pursed his lips slightly and gave Li Ruochu a look full of sympathy.
When the elevator slowly reached the top floor, the elevator door slowly opened.
Li Ruochu and Jiang Mu walked out of the elevator holding documents.
Before they could gain a firm foothold, a tall figure rushed over like a flash of black lightning, accompanied by a cheerful voice: "Sister Chu, hello!"
Li Ruochu looked in the direction of the voice and saw that Chu Xi, who had blond hair and was dressed in fancy clothes yesterday, seemed like a completely different person today.
His once flamboyant yellow hair had been dyed back to a deep black color and lay softly on his forehead.
The clothes he wore were no longer the strange clothes he wore yesterday. Instead, he was wearing a straight professional suit, the slim cut of which highlighted his tall figure.
His originally cynical face now looked more calm and serious, and he looked like a completely different person from yesterday.
"Master Chu, why are you here?" Li Ruochu was slightly stunned, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and asked.
