"Or, why don't you contact me as a client?"
Huo Jingnan's ears turned slightly red as he said this.
He had seen how Dong Jielin from Lu's sales department greeted clients. Although he looked down on that kind of woman, he thought, if Pei Nian could greet him like that...
He could laugh himself awake from a dream.
Pei Nian paused, then asked softly, "This... can be contacted too?"
"Uh, of course you can!" Huo Jingnan racked his brains. "Sales is all about skill and practice. Your skills are limited right now, and you haven't practiced enough, so of course you won't have any sales!"
“Niannian,” he appealed to her emotions again, “Even if you don’t think about yourself, think about your sister Mianmian. Although she is the young CEO of Lu’s Group, so many eyes in the board of directors are watching her. She can’t afford to make any mistakes! If people find out that the people she introduced can’t produce results, won’t those old men in the board of directors use this opportunity to make a big fuss?”
These words struck Pei Nian right to the heart.
Yes, when she joined the Lu family, wasn't it because she wanted to bring honor to her sister and make Lu Lishan proud of her?
Now, more than a month has passed, and sales are zero. I'm working just as many overtime hours as others, but there's still no progress...
How can my sister be proud if things continue like this?
So she nodded solemnly and looked at Huo Jingnan with determination.
"Then, what should I do?"
Huo Jingnan coughed twice, stood up with an air of importance, and paced back and forth in the living room.
"How do your colleagues all do it?"
Pei Nian thought for a moment, "Dong Jielin?" She pounces on clients like a hungry wolf, especially wealthy male clients, she practically wants to cling to them.
So, does that make someone a successful salesperson?
Upon hearing this description, Huo Jingnan could barely suppress a smile, but he still maintained a serious expression as he looked at her: "I think this is actually a sales tactic, it can help you get closer to your customers. Or... why don't you pounce on me too?"
Pei Nian stood still.
“Dong Jielin’s skirt is also very short,” she said in a low voice. “The neckline of her dress is also very low.”
“Then…you can too.” Huo Jingnan’s heart pounded, his eyes starting to dart around. “Or, you could…”
"What?" Pei Nian frowned.
Huo Jingnan immediately stopped talking, straightened his face, and tried his best to return to a serious demeanor.
"It's okay, it's okay! Let's start practicing. Now I'll be the customer, and you..." He looked at her, opened his arms, "Come on, pounce on me!"
Pei Nian was stunned.
Although she didn't think it was the right way to sell, there was no one else in the room anyway, so she might as well give it a try.
So she stood still, took a deep breath, aimed at her target, and pounced!
Pei Nian was thin but strong. She learned Dong Jielin's moves but didn't grasp the "essence" of the move.
She tackled Huo Jingnan to the ground!
Caught off guard, Huo Jingnan fell to the ground with a thud. However, even as he fell, he didn't forget to reach out and tightly embrace Pei Nian, protecting her in front of him.
The two fell down at the same time, with Pei Nian landing on top of Huo Jingnan.
A spark of ambiguity quickly ignited in their eyes.
"you……"
Pei Nian calmed down and met the man's fiery gaze.
His large hand was still resting on her waist.
Pei Nian blushed instantly, as if she had a fever, and hurriedly scrambled off him.
"This...this won't do!" She turned her back and stammered, "I...I can't do it..."
"Yes, this won't do." Huo Jingnan looked at her flustered and thin figure, a soft light appearing in his eyes.
He moved closer to her and stood behind her. He originally wanted to wrap his arms around her from behind, but after thinking about it, he refrained.
His deep voice, tinged with amusement, gently told her, "This kind of 'sales technique' can only be used on me; it absolutely won't work on anyone else!"
"Huo Jingnan, you..."
Pei Nian turned around, about to say something, when a passionate kiss suddenly sealed her lips!
She froze, her mind blank, a jolt of electricity washing over her.
Without saying a word, Huo Jingnan pulled her into his arms, enjoying the fragrance between her lips and teeth, and indulging in the softness in his embrace.
This apartment was something he had planned long ago.
This kiss was also premeditated.
In fact, his original plan was to spend more time with Pei Nian, and when everything was in the right place, the kiss would happen naturally in this room...
But just now, the moment Pei Nian tackled him onto the carpet, the flame within him was ignited.
He didn't want to bottle it up anymore. He'd been holding it in for far too long, and if he kept it in any longer, he didn't know what might happen to him.
So, there's no better time than today...
Huo Jingnan kissed her passionately, but without much skill, and Pei Nian even felt a little pain.
However, she unexpectedly went from resisting at first to responding later. Her small hands climbed up his broad shoulders, unconsciously stroking them, like a newborn little animal running wild in Huo Jingnan's heart.
"Nian Nian..."
He reluctantly pulled away from her lips, gazing intently at her with a gentle smile.
"I like you."
Pei Nian lowered her eyes, too nervous to utter a single word.
"And you?" he asked her. "You like me too, don't you?"
“You know everything,” Pei Nian said softly.
Huo Jingnan looked as if he had won a battle, and laughed heartily.
For the first time, Pei Nian leaned against his chest.
It was also the first time she had known what it felt like to have a home of her own.
*
The next day, Pei Nian went to work in the sales hall on time.
Everyone looked at her with a hint of amazement.
