The next day.
As soon as Lu Xiaoqiao arrived at the company, she received a message from Mr. Jiang Hengqian, asking her how she was thinking about the invoice issue.
After she texted him back saying that her boss felt the risk was too great, she asked him to meet her at a cafe near their company at 2pm to talk more.
After lunch, Lu Xiaoqiao reported to Manager Cai about Mr. Qian's plan to meet her.
Manager Tsai originally wanted to go with her, but something else delayed him, so in the end she had to go alone. Manager Tsai reminded her to stay calm.
Lu Xiaoqiao arrived at the agreed location ten minutes early and waited for more than forty minutes before Manager Qian arrived.
"Miss Lu, I'm sorry, I had some things to deal with just now, so I came a little late."
"It's okay, Mr. Qian, what would you like to drink?"
"Give me a latte please!"
After ordering coffee, Lu Xiaoqiao asked without waiting for Manager Qian to speak: "Manager Qian, what are your thoughts? I don't know if you have heard that many manufacturers have stopped accepting orders due to power restrictions. If we don't make a decision, I'm afraid it will be too late."
Manager Qian was anxious but remained calm as he said, "I have heard that, but there are still two or three companies that can take it. Now it depends on the invoice I told you about a few days ago. If this is OK, we can sign the contract tomorrow."
Lu Xiaoqiao couldn't understand why he would risk breaking the law to enrich himself when he was already working for a company with such good benefits.
"Manager Qian, I'm sorry, our company has rules for issuing invoices, and we may not be able to meet your requirements."
Manager Qian had prepared himself mentally before he came. He had heard about the power rationing by manufacturers a few days ago, and several brand owners had told him that they could not complete the order.
Due to time constraints, the only two companies that can take this order now are Chenxin and Fengshang.
But Fengshang's CFO is his ex-wife's younger brother, and he couldn't risk waiting there for him to catch him.
He is now feeling very angry. This year is his fifth year in office. The company has a rule that a purchasing manager can only serve for five years. He originally wanted to grab a deal while the last minute was left, but unfortunately he encountered power rationing.
If I mess this up, I'll probably be fired without even having to be transferred, but I have to do something good and not waste this opportunity.
I just met a fashion salesperson a few days ago. She was a sexy and feminine woman, but compared to the girl in front of me, she was not on the same level.
Manager Qian looked Lu Xiaoqiao up and down. She was really pretty, with fair and delicate skin. She looked good in figure, and most importantly, she was still young. If she could...
Seeing that he didn't say anything for a long time and was looking her up and down with an uncomfortable look, Lu Xiaoqiao felt a surge of disgust and a hint of fear in her heart.
After taking a look at her, Manager Qian leaned back in his chair and asked with a smile, "Does Miss Lu have a boyfriend?"
"Manager Qian, this question has nothing to do with what we are discussing today."
Lu Xiaoqiao was a little angry, but still answered calmly.
"Why doesn't it matter? You don't have a boyfriend and I don't have a girlfriend. As long as you agree to be my girlfriend, I will do all the group purchases for you in the future."
Lu Xiaoqiao was so angry that she almost laughed. She insisted on not breaking up with him, so she used her last bit of patience to reply, "Manager Qian, please stop joking. If you don't want to talk about it today, let's talk about it in a few days."
"Ms. Lu, why are you pretending? You all hire pretty salespeople, because they are there to accompany clients."
Lu Xiaoqiao's face immediately turned cold at what he said.
"Manager Qian, we are a formal company and you are also in a famous company. I advise you to be low-key in your words and deeds."
After Lu Xiaoqiao finished speaking, she picked up her backpack and turned to leave.
When Manager Qian saw that she was about to leave, he quickly grabbed her bag and said, "How about you stay with me for one night? We can sleep together for one night and sign the contract tomorrow."
Lu Xiaoqiao didn't expect that after she said so, he still wanted to cling to her and even sleep with her?
"I'll sleep with your mom!"
Lu Xiaoqiao couldn't help but swear.
She forcefully pulled the bag back from the money manager's hand. At this moment, she felt there was no need to save face anymore.
Just as I was about to say "I know your president, just wait for me" to scare him, I heard someone shout from behind.
"Ms. Lu!?"
Lu Xiaoqiao turned around and looked in the direction of the voice, and was stunned for a moment: "Secretary Ding?"
"I'm here to buy coffee for Mr. Zhou. Do you have business with our company?"
Secretary Ding was usually too busy to pay attention to the company's procurement issues, but when he saw Lu Xiaoqiao, he suddenly realized it.
It seems that the company's recent team building needs to purchase a batch of clothing. Why didn't I think of it before? If the order is given to Miss Lu, and she is happy, President Zhou will naturally be happy.
"We are talking about our company's group purchase, right? Don't worry, Miss Lu. I will go back and report to President Zhou later. If it has not been decided yet, I will leave it to your company. President Zhou is usually too busy to pay much attention to these things."
Manager Qian, who was standing nearby, had not expected to meet the chief secretary of the president's office. It was obvious from the conversation between the two that they knew each other. Then he saw Secretary Ding's obvious respect for Lu Xiaoqiao, and his heart sank.
When he heard how come he knew the president, he felt cold sweat all over his body. He was thinking about saying something to save himself, but then he heard Lu Xiaoqiao say something that made him want to die.
"What do you need to report? No need to report. Manager Qian said that as long as someone sleeps with him, the order can be signed tomorrow."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoqiao said, Secretary Ding turned his gaze to Manager Qian in shock: "Manager Qian, is what Miss Lu said true?"
Manager Qian had an awkward smile on his face. His facial expression was stiff and looked extremely unnatural. He rubbed his hands together unconsciously. At this moment, he regretted so much that he didn't know what to do.
"How is this possible?"
Once Secretary Ding knew about it, the president would definitely know about it as well. When Manager Qian thought about the consequences of the president knowing about it, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva and tried to defend himself.
"Secretary Ding, Miss Lu misunderstood me! I meant to wait until I wake up and sign the contract tomorrow. I said it was too late today and there was no time to draft a contract. I meant I would go to sleep. Miss Lu misunderstood me!"
Secretary Ding naturally did not believe his explanation. After he reported the matter to the boss, his future punishment and whether he would stay or go would be decided by the boss himself. What mattered now was how to appease the future boss's wife.
After listening to Manager Qian's explanation, Lu Xiaoqiao didn't say anything. Anyway, she had already explained the situation to Secretary Ding, and how to investigate and handle it next was their company's internal matter.
She didn't want to get involved in this matter. Even if nothing happened, it would still be embarrassing to tell others about it.
"Secretary Ding, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Lu Xiaoqiao said and turned around and walked out of the cafe.
How could Secretary Ding let Lu Xiaoqiao get away like that? He hurriedly chased after her and stopped her.
"Ms. Lu, please don't be angry. I will report this matter to Mr. Zhou truthfully. Mr. Zhou hates people who are obsessed with lust the most. Mr. Zhou usually has social events, and he won't even look at a beautiful woman sitting next to him. No, Mr. Zhou doesn't allow other women to sit next to him."
Lu Xiaoqiao looked at him talking incoherently, and said helplessly: "Secretary Ding, whether there is a beautiful woman sitting next to your CEO Zhou has nothing to do with me. I just hope that you will not wear tinted glasses when handling this matter. You think that this happened to me and we are dealing with this matter because we know each other. I hope your company will judge from the perspective of the matter. How to deal with it or not is your company's internal affairs. Also, when Manager Ding reports, please don't tell CEO Zhou that it was me, okay?"
"Okay, I understand, Miss Lu. Well, you are not angry anymore, right?" Secretary Ding said and glanced at her expression.
Lu Xiaoqiao didn't know why Secretary Ding was always fussing about whether she was angry or not. Wasn't it because he was considering whether the company's image would be affected?
"I'm not angry, Secretary Ding, you go ahead and do your work. I'll be leaving now."
Secretary Ding watched her walk away and did not chase her, but returned to the cafe.
When Manager Qian saw Secretary Ding coming back, he immediately went to greet him and said, "Secretary Ding, this is a big deal. Can you please not let President Zhou know about what happened today?"
Secretary Ding sighed and said, "Do you know who she is?"
Manager Qian shook his head and only knew that she was Chenxin's salesperson.
"Miss Lu is..." Secretary Ding finally didn't say the words "Mr. Zhou's person".
"I advise you to confess this matter to Mr. Zhou yourself, otherwise Mr. Zhou will find out himself, you know."
Secretary Ding ignored him and left with his coffee.
