Winning at every step
When he pushed open the door of private room 201, Liu Jianchun felt a little uneasy.
As soon as they reached the door, Jian Zhaonan stopped and refused to go in with her no matter what, and hid quietly aside.
Although the debt collection had nothing to do with Jian Zhaonan, his attitude before coming was not as timid as it is now.
She turned to look at him in confusion, but he smiled slightly, showing his rabbit teeth. His smiling expression was obviously much gentler than when he had a stern face, even a little cute, but it made her feel cold on her back.
Liu Jianchun knocked on the door twice, but the room was as quiet as death.
She tried and found the door unlocked. Instead of barging in immediately, she decided to knock on the door one last time: "Boss Wang, I'm Xiao Liu, Liu Jianchun, not a waiter."
Finally, there was a response from inside the room. It was Boss Wang's voice: "Oh, it's you. Don't come in yet..."
Boss Wang's mouth was not as quick as Liu Jianchun's hands. As soon as she heard Boss Wang's voice, she opened the door.
Liu Jianchun raised his eyes and was shocked by what he saw——
The dim and ambiguous lighting arrangement, the red roses scattered all over the floor, the disheveled girl wearing a birthday hat, and Boss Wang with a lipstick mark on the corner of his mouth...
She never expected that the scene in the room would be like this.
When the girl saw Liu Jianchun, her face immediately fell, and she crossed her arms and asked Boss Wang next to her who Liu Jianchun was.
Boss Wang put his arm around the girl's waist and shook his head at her, signaling her not to ask any further questions. However, the more he tried to persuade her, the more the girl started to cry and make a fuss.
Liu Jianchun hated dealing with trouble the most. Looking at the chaotic situation in front of him, he subconsciously frowned: "Beautiful lady, you think too much. I'm here to collect debts, not to rob people."
After saying that, she glanced at the lipstick mark on the corner of Lao Wang's mouth that had not been wiped off. "Boss Wang, you signed three players from me. The signing fee plus the liquidated damages is a total of 100,000 yuan. When are you going to pay this money?"
The girl stopped crying after hearing this, and Lao Wang took the opportunity to get away. He walked up to Liu Jianchun and pulled her out. "Coach Liu, it's time to get off work now. Come to the office and talk to me about this later."
Liu Jianchun got angry when he heard this.
Every time she called Lao Wang's secretary, the other party said that Boss Wang was busy.
Let’s talk later… She couldn’t even remember how many times she had waited for “talk later,” and her patience had long been worn out by him.
"No need to discuss this, just put the money on the card."
Seeing that Lao Wang was still trying to cheat, she immediately turned around and went back into the house: "Beauty, he's actually a fake rich man. Look, he even dragged his feet and refused to give me 100,000 yuan. What benefits can you get by following him? Break up quickly!"
"Liu Jianchun." Old Wang, hindered by his lover's presence, held back from getting angry, but his broad, fat face gradually grew grim. "One hundred thousand yuan is nothing to me, but judging by your attitude today, I'm really not going to give you the money."
Before she could finish her words, Lao Wang had already made a phone call and asked the driver to ask the security guard to come up and kick her out as an uninvited guest.
"Boss Wang, who are you going to kick out?" A familiar voice sounded from outside the door.
Liu Jianchun turned his head to look. It turned out to be the guy who had been hiding behind the door, not wanting to get involved in any trouble. "What are you doing here?"
Jian Zhaonan seemed to have lost a part of his memory, and when he looked at her, his eyes were full of surprise: "Sister Liu, why are you here?"
When Old Wang saw Jian Zhaonan, his anger subsided a little, but the word "unhappy" was still on his face.
The reason he came here for a date today was because Jian Zhaonan said that this Italian restaurant was opened by his brother and he hoped they could come and support it.
Boss Wang said with a dark face, "Jian Zhaonan, if you know her, just take her away directly, so I don't have to call other people for help."
"Of course I know her. She's my good friend." He naturally took Liu Jianchun's hand and turned to leave. "Come on, follow me."
It would be fine if he didn't help, but he actually wanted to take her away?
Seeing Jian Zhaonan's nonchalant expression, Liu Jianchun became inexplicably furious and shook off his hand, angrily cursing, "Jian Zhaonan, are you sick?"
He turned to look at her, his eyes still calm: "You are not Boss Wang's guest, why are you still staying here?"
She stared at Jian Zhaonan for a few seconds before she saw a hint of evil in his innocent eyes.
She guessed that he had portrayed himself as an outsider since he entered the room, and was completely unaware of the quarrel in the room, in order to deliberately save some face for Boss Wang so that he and she could play the good cop and the bad cop respectively.
Realizing this, she took advantage of the situation, put her hands on her hips, and shouted at him, "I'm here to ask for money!"
Just looking at Liu Jianchun's appearance, someone who didn't know him might think that the person who owed the money was Jian Zhaonan.
Jian Zhaonan pretended to be enlightened: "Boss Wang is worth hundreds of millions now, how could he owe you money?"
She took advantage of the situation and said, "Actually, I don't believe it either, but the money hasn't arrived yet. I guess someone below must have embezzled it, so I came to check the accounts with Boss Wang."
…
"Alright, alright!" Old Wang suddenly felt a headache as he listened to the two people standing in front of him singing the same tune. With his lover beside him, he would lose face if he let the two of them continue to quarrel. "It's only 100,000 yuan in total, right? I'll contact my secretary and call you tomorrow."
Liu Jianchun was overjoyed, but Jian Zhaonan, who was standing behind her, gently pulled her clothes, indicating that it was time to stop.
Just as the two were about to leave, Boss Wang suddenly spoke up, "Zhaonan, you did this on purpose, didn't you? Last month, I approached you about a partnership, and you asked me to take care of our business. Now that I'm here, why are you bringing people here to cause trouble?"
Jian Zhaonan smiled awkwardly: "This is all an accident. I just heard the noise sounded familiar, so I came to join in the fun."
Boss Wang squinted his eyes at the two of them and sneered, "Accident? I don't think so. Everyone knows that you, Captain Jian, don't like to go out, and you rarely even attend social events. Why would you show up here and meddle in such trivial matters?"
Jian Zhaonan lowered his head and thought for a moment. He smiled gently, raised his hand and placed it on Liu Jianchun's shoulder, hugging him closer to him: "Boss Wang, please give me some face and stop asking."
A rare smile appeared on Boss Wang's serious face: "Okay, I'll give you this favor today."
"Let's go. See you later." He put his arm around her shoulders and walked out of the private room, but let go as soon as he left the room.
The two remained silent all the way.
As they walked side by side to the door and were about to go their separate ways, Liu Jianchun couldn't help but ask, "Jian Zhaonan, why did you deliberately hug me in front of Fatty Wang just now..."
"I don't want him to continue to embarrass you because of 100,000 yuan."
Liu Jianchun couldn't help but frown: "So you want to slander me as your girlfriend?"
"Unfair, I never said that."
Liu Jianchun looked at Jian Zhaonan, whose eyes were filled with innocence. For a moment, he didn't know whether he was overthinking it or if Jian Zhaonan was just acting well. "You didn't say that, but he must have taken it the wrong way. If he tells this to others..."
He waited quietly for her to stammer and stop talking before he slowly spoke: "And then, what harm will this do to you?"
She was stunned with embarrassment.
It really doesn't seem to have much impact on her. Even if the public opinion about "Jian Zhaonan's girlfriend" comes like a wave, it will only bring a little traffic to her stadium and team. Other than that... it seems like nothing.
This kid has grown tall and strong now, and looks very handsome. He is quite impressive to take out.
The only regret is that he is a little young and not the charming mature man type that she likes.
Before she could answer, her cell phone suddenly rang. She took out her phone and glanced at the caller ID. It was her captain Yunxiao. The excitement she had about getting 100,000 yuan from Lao Wang was instantly gone.
Yunxiao usually doesn't bother her, but whenever he comes to her it must be something urgent.
As soon as she picked up the phone, the girl's anxious voice rang out: "Coach, can you transfer me a hundred yuan?"
"What do you want money for?"
"Dalin ate something bad and has been vomiting. I want to take him to the hospital."
When Liu Jianchun heard that something happened in the team, he subconsciously avoided Jian Zhaonan and walked aside.
She didn't accuse him, but asked calmly, "Have you given Dalin the medicine?"
"Not yet, but we're out of medicine in the dormitory, so I want to take him to the hospital. Or... you can transfer fifty yuan to me, and I'll make an appointment for him, but I won't prescribe any medicine."
"No need to go, I'll be back soon. Ask Nurse Liu to prescribe some medicine for him first. Have her put the cost on my account and I'll pay her later. Remember not to eat leftovers if they're sour, so you don't get a stomachache and have me pay for the medicine."
"When will you be back?"
The phone call was still going on, she turned around and happened to meet Jian Zhaonan's eyes.
He seemed to have guessed what she was thinking. He took out his car keys and gestured to her, mouthing the question, "Do you want me to take you there?" She was stunned for a few seconds before replying to Yunxiao on the other end of the phone, "Ten minutes."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Jianchun quickly walked back to Jian Zhaonan's side. Without any hesitation, he grabbed Jian Zhaonan's coat and dragged him out. "Where is your car? Hurry up, I have to be back in ten minutes."
Jian Zhaonan glanced at her hands and said, "I'm not your driver. Can I hurry up just because you say so? If you're in such a hurry, why not take a taxi?"
Liu Jianchun had no intention of arguing with him and just gave him a blank look.
Her sharp gaze was more effective than words. As soon as her glare flew over, Jian Zhaonan pressed the remote control, and a black Land Rover not far from the door turned on its lights, guiding her in the direction with silent actions.
He refused to obey, but his body was honest. He quickly got into the car after her, started the engine, and put the car in reverse, all in one go. He didn't ask until the car was on the road, "Was the person who just called the kid you practiced with?"
"Yes..." she answered perfunctorily.
"Be more patient with children and don't speak so harshly."
"Just drive your car and talk less."
"Liu Jianchun."
When she was suddenly called by her full name, she looked up at him and found that he seemed a little dissatisfied with her and was glancing at her coldly through the rearview mirror.
"Do you remember? You are my assistant now. Logically, you should follow my instructions."
She didn't argue with him because of his help and said perfunctorily, "I know, I know, but saving lives is more important. I'll talk about the assistant after you send me back."
