Chapter 23 A guy who values women over friendship!
Gu Zhiyan didn't want to discuss Jian Yao's affairs with other men, so he drank the wine in the glass, put the glass on the table, and looked at the group of people staggering over there with his sparkling black eyes.
"Are they free recently? Why are they all here at once?"
Pei Yi glanced at Gu Zhiyan, picked up the wine on the table and poured another glass, filling Gu Zhiyan's glass, and leaned lazily on the sofa.
"If you had spent a little more time on the club than you did on Jian Yao, you wouldn't have been unaware that they were here to participate in the live broadcast."
It's clearly a studio run by the two of them together, so why is he the only one worrying about it from beginning to end?
Gu Zhiyan glanced at him coldly.
Years of tacit understanding made Pei Yi understand Gu Zhiyan's meaning immediately: Is this Jian Yao's name you called?
Pei Yi speechlessly made a zipper-mouthed gesture and raised his hand to raise the glass to Gu Zhiyan.
Gu Zhiyan slowly straightened the tie that he had just torn off in the car, "I won't drink anymore, I'm afraid your sister-in-law will worry."
"You guys keep drinking and put it on my bill."
Pei Yi: ...
Leaving right after arriving?
If I could beat him, I would really like to give him two "bang bang" punches.
Seeing that Gu Zhiyan had already stood up and was about to leave, Pei Yi hurriedly spoke up, "The partner wants the two of us to participate in the live broadcast event with Hongmao. What do you think?"
When he and Gu Zhiyan had not yet retired, they were regular teammates with Hongmao and were known as the Three Swordsmen.
After graduating from university, he and Gu Zhiyan focused on Yaoguang and retired from the club, leaving only the youngest Hongmao to take on the responsibility and lead a group of young radishes to continue the competition.
Come to think of it, they haven't touched the game for a long time. From time to time, there are fans on Weibo clamoring for them to return.
Although a return is impossible, it would be nice to give some benefits to former fans through this event.
Gu Zhiyan paused as he was about to leave the door, and suddenly his eyes flashed back to the scene in the study room in college when Lu Chengze and Wu Yue were playing games. When Lu Chengze blamed Jian Yao for her poor game skills, Jian Yao was trembling with fear, and a hint of pain flashed across her eyes.
"I may be quite busy these days, so I don't have any plans for the time being."
"Why!"
Pei Yi looked at the man's leaving back and rolled his eyes silently.
He rolled his eyes more today than in his entire first half of his life.
He shook his head and imitated Gu Zhiyan's tone just now, speaking in a weird tone, "I've been quite busy recently..."
We are from the same company, how could he not know whether he is busy or not?
Are you trying to fool someone?
Are you busy going home to coax your wife?
A guy who values women over friendship!
＊
An hour later, Jian Yao came out of the bathroom, drying her hair.
The sun is shining brightly.
She didn't use a hair dryer to blow dry her hair. Instead, she took a book and prepared to go to the balcony to read and dry her hair.
The screen of the mobile phone thrown on the bed lit up and a message from a stranger popped up.
She picked up her phone, opened it, picked up a book, and walked towards the balcony.
The message came from an unfamiliar number, with just a short sentence and a picture.
"Is this new necklace that Brother Lu gave me nice?"
The photo did not show her face, only her neck, revealing half of her chin and delicate collarbone, as well as the sparkling six-pointed diamond necklace around her neck.
I knew without thinking that it was sent by Liu Yiyi.
Last time she blocked Liu Yiyi on WeChat, this time she simply sent her a message from an unfamiliar number.
Jian Yao sneered, "It really is haunting you."
She was too lazy to pay attention to Liu Yiyi, the green tea girl, so she exited the message interface, opened WeChat out of habit, and saw the message sent by Special Assistant Lin an hour ago.
"Ms. Jian, there is a problem with the Lu and Li projects. Can you let Mr. Li take my call?"
Lu's and Li's projects?
Jian Yao frowned.
She has always been in charge of the Lu and Li projects. When she met Uncle Li at noon today, everything was fine. What could go wrong?
Jian Yao tapped her phone. "What happened?"
Assistant Lin seemed to have been waiting for her call. Almost the moment the message was sent, it was already being input.
But a few words flashed a few times while I was typing, and in the end only one sentence was sent.
"It's just a minor problem. You just need to ask Mr. Li to answer the phone."
Jian Yao pursed her lips.
This means I don't want to tell her.
She opened the company group chat, and it was peaceful and everyone was just chatting and joking.
Obviously, this matter was concealed by Lu Chengze.
Even she had to keep it a secret that Lu Chengze had gone to such great lengths to maintain her.
Jian Yao could probably guess who it was.
Although Liu Yiyi keeps making small moves under the supervision of Special Assistant Lin, she has no access to any major projects of the company.
Most likely it was her useless snack brother who caused trouble.
Liu Yaozong is the warehouse manager, so Jian Yao was worried.
The position of warehouse manager is not high-profile, but if you really mess up, you can really cause big trouble.
Jian Yao tightly grasped her phone. When she thought about how Lu Chengze was still trying to protect Liu Yaozong, she became more and more eager to leave the Lu family.
Special Assistant Lin didn't wait for her reply and sent another message.
"Miss Jane, are you still there?"
Jian Yao pulled off the towel on her head and tapped the screen with her finger. "Since it's a small matter, I'll deal with it after I get back from vacation."
After brushing off Special Assistant Lin with a few words, Jian Yao muted her phone, fixed her hair, and read a book in the recliner.
I want her to help, but I don't want her to know the truth.
How could such a good thing exist in the world?
Anyway, judging from Uncle Li’s expression today, it seems that the Li family cannot be harmed, so let Special Assistant Lin and Lu Chengze figure out a solution themselves.
When Liu Yaozong was first invited to join the company, wasn’t the slogan shouted loud and clear?
Now that something has happened, let him take care of it himself.
Lu's top floor president's office.
Lu Chengze stood in front of the French window, looking towards the east through the glass.
That was the direction of him and Jian Yao’s community.
The cigarette in his hand was almost burned out, and the scorching heat passed through his fingertips, but he didn't move, as if he didn't feel any pain.
Assistant Lin stood behind him, his eyes swept over the fire on his fingertips, and pursed his lips, "Boss Lu, our company's current liquidity is not enough to fill the vacancy on the Li side."
Half a year's payment for goods is 800 million, plus penalty for breach of contract.
Even if we tear down the east wall to repair the west wall, we are still halfway done.
I don't know why, but this time Li's attitude was very firm. Secretary Wang, who was usually gentle and easy to talk to, suddenly turned against him and refused to even grant a grace period of a few days. He said three days meant three days.
Three days later, if Li fails to get the money, he will expose Lu's scandal of selling inferior products as good ones to the public and sue him.
Once this matter gets out, other partners will definitely attack Lu.
By that time, it won't be enough to just return hundreds of millions of dollars in debt.
With its reputation ruined, any company that wants to cooperate with Lu will have to think carefully. It will be extremely difficult to make a comeback.
