Speaking of the accumulated blessings of the month, mentioning the position changes the perception
After watching the CD, the answer was clear: Qian Jianjun had used Xue Jiuyue's name to do something good, but there were still some details that needed to be clarified in person. Later that day, upon returning from his business trip to Xialin, Qian Jianjun reported to "Inch of Time."
"Xiaoyue, I brought you some local specialties. Locals call them Shuibaixing (Water White Apricots). Because they're so difficult to store, they're rarely seen outside the country. They say the best flavor can only be savored beneath the trees. I picked this basket this morning and brought it back directly with me on the plane. Come try some."
"Thank you, Mr. Qian."
Qian Jianjun's dusty, slightly dull complexion contrasted sharply with the basket of fresh, dew-drenched apricots before him. Xue Jiuyue couldn't refuse his sincere offer. She immediately picked up one, a tender white apricot that was larger than an ordinary apricot. She took a sip; it was sweet, glutinous, and juicy. Perhaps it was fresh, like drinking ice-cold honey water.
"It's delicious! I've never tasted apricots this delicious! Thank you, Mr. Qian." Xue Jiuyue praised sincerely, "Do you think I can offer you some so that everyone can have a taste?"
"Of course, if you like me, I'll treat you as much as you want." Seeing that Xue Jiuyue really liked it, Qian Jianjun also looked happy.
Soon, Ke Yike and other regular customers of the store, including Mr. Qiu, all tasted the water white apricots distributed by Qian Jianjun and invited by Xue Jiuyue.
"Mr. Qian, this is obviously the local specialty you brought back with great effort. Others do good deeds without leaving their names, but Mr. Qian, you always like to do good deeds under my name!" He had not planned to ask clearly today, but happened to catch up, so Xue Jiuyue also mentioned it in passing.
"I'm giving it to you, so you can treat everyone." Qian Jianjun was explaining when he noticed Xue Jiuyue looking at him with a raised eyebrow and a meaningful smile. He felt a little unsure, "Isn't that right?"
"It's a good thing, but why not use your own name?"
Feeling bad, Qian Jianjun still insisted, "It's just a trivial matter, it's not worth mentioning. Whose reputation is different?"
"Mr. Qian has a global vision. Pointing at the moon is a small matter. Won't he be able to pick the stars in a few days?" Xue Jiuyue simply made it clear.
"Um, well, Xiaoyue, you know now?" Qian Jianjun smiled awkwardly. He stole a glance at Xue Jiuyue, who didn't seem angry, and then he mustered up the courage to apologize. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Xiaoyue. I used your name without your consent, but I didn't publicize it. Don't worry, if I cause you any trouble, I'll take full responsibility."
"It's not a big deal. I just feel unworthy of the children's thanks. Why should they use my name?" Xue Jiuyue took out the box of letters from the children.
Qian Jianjun flipped through a few letters. "These children are so innocent and adorable! For them, we must work together sincerely to get things done. What difference does it make whose name it is? The most important thing is to enable those children to read more books and see the moon in the direction of our fingers."
"How do you know that elementary school?"
Xue Jiuyue remained silent, and Qian Jianjun felt more at ease. He stared at Xue Jiuyue with a burning gaze, "Xiaoyue, this matter actually started because of you. The first time I invited you to dinner was when we all went to Chan. When we left, didn't I help you move the books to the courier? I was deeply moved at the time. A weak woman like you is doing your best to give back to society. After all, I am a man of seven feet tall. I can't fall behind and must catch up. So I secretly wrote down the recipient's address. Later, I happened to be nearby on a business trip, so I detour to visit the school in person. I couldn't just barge in when I went there, could I? I needed a name, so I went to visit the children under your name and was warmly welcomed. The children in the mountains were deeply moved by their thirst for knowledge, and I immediately decided to fund the construction of a library for them."
Knowing that Qian Jianjun's words were 70% true and 30% false, Xue Jiuyue didn't bother to argue and returned to the previous question, "It's a good thing that Mr. Qian is willing to help children. Why not leave his own name or Jianru's? Many companies hope to establish a good social image through charity."
"This incident started with you, so of course your name should be included. And I went there under your name, so I can't say that President Xue told me not to include her name, can I?" Qian Jianjun tried to get away with it by making a joke, but under Xue Jiuyue's piercing gaze, he could only add, "Besides, even if your name is included, it won't bring you any practical benefits, right? We're all just kids. Even if you become successful in the future and want to thank you, I think you'll refuse."
"Is that really all? Mr. Qian, from what I know about you, if something only achieves one goal, it's a loss. I've always admired your openness. I don't think you would lie to me over such a small matter, right?"
"Everything I said is true." Qian Jianjun only had the courage to say this one more sentence, then he lowered his eyes and whispered, "My grandmother taught me to accumulate virtue and do good deeds since I was a child, saying that good people will be rewarded. She also said that God is in the mouths of the people, and those who are praised by the people will definitely be blessed by God and live a long life. At that time, I thought that if more people thought of your good deeds, would you also be blessed? Maybe there is some power in the dark that can help you recover faster..."
Qian Jianjun glanced up at Xue Jiuyue before self-deprecatingly saying, "Actually, it's quite ridiculous and childish. I'm already an adult... and I don't know if I believe it or not, but grandma's ideas have truly influenced me. Everything I do, I wonder if she'll hate me or scold me in the future."
Qian Jianjun's words deeply moved Xue Jiuyue. Although Xue Jiuyue could not verify his statement, his expression was genuine and sorrowful, not fake. Moreover, Xue Jiuyue had always witnessed his sincere wish and actions for Xue Jiuyue's recovery. Tu Xinyue also described Qian Jianjun as having a very good reputation among Jianru. He always considered others in everything he did, including his indecisiveness in dealing with his emotions, which seemed to be due to his inability to make up his mind.
"I believe this. This is the simplest faith held by the Chinese people for thousands of years! Foreigners always say that the Chinese have no faith, but that's because they don't understand the God who lives in the hearts of the people! This God is God, history, and the human heart! This may be what it means to 'rule the world with the Tao'! Thank you, Mr. Qian!"
Xue Jiuyue's words made Qian Jianjun a little confused, "Xiaoyue, are you not angry anymore?"
"If they can do something tangible and good for the children, even if it requires my help, I'm willing to do it. Why should I be angry? I just don't understand why Mr. Qian would use my name, so I need to ask."
Qian Jianjun was now completely relaxed, and continued with a bright and energetic look, "Actually, I've done a few more things. This time I went there again on a business trip. On the one hand, I was inspecting the construction of the library. Although I can't do it myself, I must supervise it personally. On the other hand, I hope to do my best to contribute to the local economic development. After all, it's better to teach someone how to fish than to give him fish. If the local area can become prosperous, then that's the fundamental way to help the children."
"Then it's Shui Baixing?"
"Xiaoyue, you're really smart! It's true that such a fine fruit, lacking promotion and poor storage, prevents it from generating higher economic returns. That's a complete waste. So, I'm promoting it on our e-commerce platform for free. Our platform currently has limited traffic, but I'm planning to use the White Water Apricots as a promotional tool. Not only is there considerable demand, it should be a win-win for both parties. Also, at your cocktail party a while ago, I got some inspiration. I hope to develop new packaging materials to ensure the best flavor of the White Water Apricots can be enjoyed far and wide. The White Water Apricots I brought back today are a testament to this new material! Your satisfaction is its highest score."
"Mr. Qian, I admire you! Cheers!" Xue Jiuyue raised his glass.
"I'm still influenced by you, let's encourage each other!"
"Mr. Qian, Jianru has been making quite a few moves lately. I know of several already. With such large-scale innovation and R&D, is the funding chain safe?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Jianjun beamed with joy. "Thank you, Xiaoyue, you truly care about me! Only those who manage the household know how expensive fuel and food are. Outsiders only know about our extravagant lifestyle, but they don't know how frugal we are. We've accumulated some wealth over the years, but launching so many new projects all at once is still too much to handle. Some people have advised me to hold on to my gains, but the current world of information and technology offers so many opportunities to overtake others, I can't afford to slack off. Fortunately, my financial director is quite capable. Not only does he have exceptional financing capabilities, but he also makes full use of existing channels and influence to reduce the proportion of cash investment, which is why we have achieved this multi-pronged development."
"Financial Director? Is his name Rong Xu?" Xue Jiuyue thought of his old classmate Ai Mu.
"Yes, you know him too?"
"Isn't he still the CFO?"
"Hahaha, Xiaoyue, you know this detail too. Xinyue told you, right? Oh, she wouldn't fall for Rongxu, would she? He's married."
Xue Jiuyue smiled and explained the misunderstanding, "I know he is married, and his wife is my classmate."
"This world is really small! I was wondering why Rong Xu was so awesome, it turns out he has a good wife! Your Xiaoyue's classmate must be someone extraordinary." Qian Jianjun secretly praised Xue Jiuyue again.
"Boss Qian admires him so much, why hasn't he given him a formal appointment yet?"
Qian Jianjun hurriedly explained, "My negligence, my negligence. I'm always on a business trip and I was delayed. I'll take care of it when I get back! You can see that he is irreplaceable in my heart. The position of CFO belongs to him."
"Mr. Qian, you misunderstood! I have no intention of interfering in your company's personnel affairs. His wife is my classmate, but that doesn't mean our relationship is necessarily harmonious."
"Oh?" Qian Jianjun was skeptical.
"That's it..."
After listening to Xue Jiuyue's story, Qian Jianjun was filled with righteous indignation. "This is outrageous! When I get back, I'll appoint another vice president as CFO."
