Chapter 59: The CEO of the Project
Ding Dong.
"Huh? Who is it?" Shen Qingning came out of his arms and walked towards the door.
Si Moting scrolled through the pages and said, "I'm going to the auction tonight. I'll have them send some clothes over."
Places like auctions are naturally high-end venues.
Shen Qingning used to follow Shen Qingzhi there, but not often, just a few times.
At that time, he wore suits custom-made for him by Shen Qingzhi.
He was young before and it didn’t matter what he wore, and no one took him too seriously.
But that wasn't possible now. There were only two brothers in the Shen family. From what his elder brother said, he wanted to send a signal to the outside world about his relationship with Si Moting.
So today's attire must be more formal.
.
Shen Qingzhi hung up the phone and took a sip of the instant coffee in the cup.
"Boss Shen, you made it so hard for me to find you."
Manager Wang
Manager Wang came over with a smile, and his words became more intimate: "Boss Shen and Longtai have already signed the contract. How can we not celebrate such a good thing? I have organized a party at noon. Boss Shen, would you please join us for lunch?"
At the bidding meeting in the morning, Si Yanming came in and changed Shen Qingzhi's seat from the fifth row to the first row.
After the bidding ended, it was announced on the spot that they would cooperate with Shen’s.
With such a big move, anyone can see that Shen Qingzhi has now climbed up the big tree of Si Yanming.
"Manager Wang, you're too polite. It's just that Shen's company was lucky enough to catch Mr. Si's eye. We'll need your support for the next bidding."
Manager Wang seemed to be unable to hear Shen Qingzhi's polite refusal and invited him again: "I know Mr. Shen has a light palate, so I specially booked a table at Yunlai. Mr. Shen must go."
Who doesn’t want to get close to the Si family? Even a small gap would be enough for them to get promoted and make money.
However, not everyone can reach Si Yanming's high position. There are too many people in Jingang City who want to see him, but most people can only see his back.
A hint of coldness flashed in Shen Qingzhi's eyes.
The last time I came to him for a project, I still remember his expression and impatience.
Shen Qingzhi really didn't like having dinner with such people, but the other party was so aggressive that he couldn't be easily dismissed.
People in the business world are always smiling tigers and will not offend anyone easily.
Shen Qingzhi knew this even better and was hesitating about how to refuse.
Later, a man’s cold and arrogant voice came: “Boss Shen.”
Manager Wang turned around first and greeted him warmly: "Hello, Mr. Si. I'm Xiao Wang from Yaoxin Financing Company."
Si Yanming glanced at him lightly without extending his hand, let alone responding to him.
Manager Wang smiled awkwardly and tactfully said nothing more.
Si Yanming looked at Shen Qingzhi and said, "Come with me to meet someone."
"Okay." Shen Qingzhi threw the coffee in his hand into the trash can beside him and said goodbye to Manager Wang politely: "Manager Wang, let's talk again when we have time."
"Okay, okay, take care, Mr. Shen."
Today's bidding was held at the Convention and Exhibition Center, and Shen Qingzhi only received the notice of the auction when the meeting was over.
This auction was held by the Xie family of Nancheng for charitable donations. The news of the auction was released three days ago.
Shen Qingzhi only found out about this now, so you can imagine what the Shen family's status was like.
Some time ago, the dispute between him and Bai Yue spread throughout the circle, and people outside even speculated whether the Fu family and the Gu family had also broken with the Shen family.
So as soon as the meeting was over, he called Shen Qingning.
Si Yanming took Shen Qingzhi out of the convention center without looking around, and many people saw them walking side by side.
After leaving the banquet hall, the people around them became fewer. Shen Qingzhi finally spoke: "Didn't you say you wanted to meet someone? Why did you come out?"
Si Yanming directly mentioned Shen's name at the bidding meeting today, which surprised Shen Qingzhi.
He always thought that Si Yanming was just temporarily interested in him, and he thought he was good-looking, which was his bargaining chip.
So he clearly marked the price and only talked about benefits.
"Let's go eat first. I have an appointment with the project leader this afternoon. You can have a meeting with them."
"I drive?" Shen Qingzhi raised his eyebrows: "In Longtai?"
Si Yanming stopped and looked at him sideways: "Is there a problem?"
Of course there is a problem.
The project belonged to Longtai, and Shen's was at best a partner. If it weren't for the accident that night, Longtai wouldn't have needed a partner at all given its strength.
And now he asked the president of a partner to go to the company to hold a project meeting. Isn't this overstepping one's authority and usurping power?
Shen Qingzhi studied engineering and was unsure if the two idioms were used correctly: "As long as you have no problem."
"Mr. Shen is really hard to please. He doesn't even give me a smile." Si Yanming said with a smile, and his handsome face was glowing softly.
He was handsome, and both brothers had very aggressive looks. They were trying so hard to coax him that Shen Qingzhi turned his face away feeling a little uncomfortable.
"We're not going to eat, let's go."
Six o'clock in the evening.
Many cars arrived at the entrance of Rose Manor one after another. A red carpet was laid at the entrance, and many media reporters had already arrived.
Si Moting's car did not stop at the door, but drove directly into the underground parking lot.
As they passed by, Shen Qingning seemed to see a celebrity: "Si Moting, is the auction that big? I really want to see the best actor. The male lead in the movie we watched at home last time."
Shen Qingning is not a fan of celebrities. She only recognizes their faces but cannot remember their names.
But the guy acted well and he was impressed.
Si Moting entered the parking lot and was looking for a space. "It's held by the Xie family in South City. Everyone who's important will be there."
"Xie family? The Xie family I know?"
"Yeah, that's them."
It’s different from the Si family who are engaged in finance.
The Xie family of Nancheng was a military family, and for generations, no one in the family had been idle. This kind of family was not the same as the business circle.
Shen Qingning had only heard of it before. After all, Jingang City was in the north, and Nancheng was in the south, thousands of kilometers apart.
"It's run by the Xie family, so why isn't it in South City? Isn't it closer there?"
Si Moting found a parking space and backed up nonchalantly. "Xie Qiange is such a bad guy. Who knows what he's doing in Jingang City?"
"Xie Qiange?"
"Who is the current leader of the Xie family? You'll know when you see me."
"Oh" Shen Qingning didn't understand these, but he was obedient.
After parking the car, Shen Qingning glanced at the message on her phone: "Gu Chen said there were too many reporters at the door, so they went in first. Big brother asked us to go see him first."
"Okay. Let's go." Si Moting held Shen Qingning's hand, intending to go in holding hands.
Shen Qingning asked, "Is it okay to be so high-profile?"
He didn't have any problems, since they already had the marriage certificate. But he wasn't sure if it would have any impact on Si Moting.
Perhaps because she had read too many novels about wealthy CEOs, Shen Qingning subconsciously felt that people of the Si family's status were accustomed to keeping a low profile.
"Why not?" Si Moting held his palm and squeezed it. "Do you still want me to be your secret lover?"
