The landline on the desk rang. Lai Jianhao pressed the hands-free key, and Assistant Li's voice came out: "Mr. Lai, Mr. Luo will be here in about 15 minutes."
Lai Jianhao said, "Tell Lao Huang to personally go to the company gate to greet him, to show his respect, and give him half an hour to come see me. Also, tell Tiantian to come pick up her husband."
Assistant Li said respectfully, "I understand, Mr. Lai."
After hanging up the phone, Lai Jianhao said, "Jingze, I'm busy with work today, so I won't invite you to dinner. I'll treat you to dinner when I go to Dinghui Company later."
Liu Jingze said, "I'll treat Mr. Lai to a meal. I'm a local, and I know all the delicious food in the nearby towns."
Lai Jianhao laughed: "It seems that you understand your colleagues well."
Liu Jingze was also helpless: "I don't want to understand, but there are always people who help me understand. To be honest, working in the catering industry is really tiring, but my father likes it, so I will continue to do it."
Lai Jianhao said, "Actually, every industry has its tiring parts. For example, in our manufacturing industry, if we don't have orders, we're frustrated. Even if we have orders, we're still frustrated. But after all, it's business, and we're looking for money, so the hard work is worth it."
There was a knock on the door, and Lai Jianhao said, "Come in."
The one who entered was Su Tiantian. Su Tiantian walked to the desk and stood next to the chair where Liu Jingze was sitting: "Mr. Lai, good morning."
Lai Jianhao said, "Tiantian, please take your boss, Mr. Liu, out of the company later. Mr. Luo will be here soon and there's a meeting around 10:30. You need to attend. I'll listen to you two have dinner next time."
Su Tiantian ignored Liu Jingze's sudden hand reaching out to hold hers, and kept a calm expression as she said, "Mr. Lai seems to be in a bad mood."
Lai Jianhao said bluntly, "Don't you know why I'm in a bad mood? Every time Luo comes, he borrows money and people. He says that lending is just a courtesy, but he's simply trying to rob us of our money and people, poaching us. Last time he came, he took a researcher from the R&D department away. Sometimes he even causes me to get scolded."
Su Tiantian suppressed a smile and said, "Didn't you say last time that Mr. Luo was about to retire?"
Lai Jianhao took out a box of cookies from his office cabinet, handed it to Su Tiantian, and said, "Shishi made these. She said this is for you. She made six cans of cookies this time. They taste pretty good."
Su Tiantian took it and said, "I called tonight to thank Shishi. She is really patient. She did a great job making those cupcakes last time."
Lai Jianhao was furious: "Luo said he had a hard life and couldn't retire too early. He needed to train more talents for the company. I guess I'll have to follow him for another ten or eight years."
Su Tiantian said: "Mr. Luo is 55 years old this year. He can definitely continue to work for another ten or eight years. He is also able to keep up with the trends and has many ideas."
Lai Jianhao smiled cunningly: "So I asked Lao Huang to go greet him. Don't they have a lot of common topics? Let them speak first."
Su Tiantian said, "Then I'll send my husband out first. Mr. Lai and Vice President Huang probably won't be able to delay for long. Mr. Luo has always been a man of clear goals and strong execution."
Su Tiantian held the jar of cookies in her left hand and held her husband's hand with her right hand, and walked out of the general manager's office. Yun Suiyang and Azhi came out of the reception room behind her.
Su Tiantian said: "Brother Jing, are you going back to Zongxiao City now?"
Liu Jingze said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back first and come pick you up on Friday."
Su Tiantian said: "Then I'll take you to the garage to get the car."
As a result, when I arrived at the company's garage, I met a group of people.
It’s easy to tell who the central figure in that group is: Mr. Luo.
Mr. Luo's voice was cheerful and humorous: "Tiantian, come to work. Mr. Liu is here too."
Su Tiantian said: "Good morning, Mr. Luo, and good morning, Vice President Huang."
Liu Jingze also said: "Good morning, Mr. Luo, and good morning, Vice President Huang."
Vice President Huang said, "Mr. Liu, are you going back?
Mr. Luo said, "Won't Lai Jianhao treat you to a meal? I'll treat you."
The people around Mr. Luo had different expressions. Some were secretly happy, some were embarrassed, some were trying to hold back their laughter, some were making eye contact with each other, and some seemed to be gossiping and were about to spread the news everywhere.
Su Tiantian remained calm. "My husband and I will go to Kuofu City someday and invite Mr. Luo to dinner. Mr. Luo is a guest in Kuofu City, so how can we let him treat us? If Mr. Luo is free at noon, I will treat him. I'm just afraid that if we have to wait in line, it won't be my turn."
Vice President Huang echoed, "Manager Su, you really have to wait in line. I wonder how many people want to treat Mr. Luo to a meal."
Mr. Luo said, "Then it's settled. Find a time for you and your wife to come to Kuozhou City, and I'll give you a good welcome. I only found out on the wedding day that Mr. Liu is Ren Maike's nephew. What a fate."
Liu Jingze was a little surprised: "So Mr. Luo knows my second uncle?
Mr. Luo said, "The Ren family, the seafood king of Kuoshan City, also started from scratch. I also made a living at sea."
Liu Jingze said: "Yes, when I was a child, my uncles' families were not well off."
Mr. Luo said, "Mr. Liu, you're busy and I'm busy too. Let's make an appointment another day. I need to go see Mr. Lai now."
Su Tiantian pulled Liu Jingze and quickly made way: "Goodbye, Mr. Luo."
Mr. Luo smiled and said, "Manager Su, it may not go as you wish. You will see me again later."
Liu Jingze said: "Mr. Luo is really humorous. Goodbye, Mr. Luo."
The four of them got in the car, and Liu Jingze said to Su Tiantian, who was sitting in the back seat with him, "It seems my sister Tiantian is very busy at work."
Su Tiantian said, "You're busy too, and you still send me to work. It takes most of the day to go back and forth."
Liu Jingze said, "Tiantian, thank you for being willing to work back home. Mr. Lai and Mr. Luo think so highly of you. In fact, you have more development opportunities if you stay in a first-tier city."
