My face darkened as I asked Fang Guoxu, "Who did you buy coffee for?"
"It's just my colleagues from the security department, the HR department that handled my onboarding, Mr. Cai, and you. No one else."
Fang Guoxu answered truthfully, thinking that this was all taught to him by Lan Feng.
Lan Feng wanted to make Fang Guoxu popular as he had just arrived at Huake, but she didn't know that these tricks were useless and would only cause more trouble.
I didn't take the cup of coffee, but took Fang Guoxu aside and warned him clearly.
"At Huake Real Estate, flattery is not accepted. As long as you work hard, it's better than trying to curry favor with others and build relationships."
Fang Guoxu felt a little uneasy, and his hand holding the coffee felt a little awkward.
Although Fang Guoxu was brought in by Cai Ya, Cai Ya only helped him because he was my brother-in-law. Everything Fang Guoxu said and did in the company was inevitably related to me.
With a cold face, I told him seriously, "You have already started working at Huake, and I can only help you up to this point. As for whether you are qualified for this job and whether you can stay at Huake, it all depends on your own ability."
"Also, this is the company. I want you to call me 'Boss Lan.' Just focus on your work and don't try to build relationships. Didn't you and I get criticized enough when we were at VC Media?"
Fang Guoxu wasn't stupid. He understood what I meant, nodded repeatedly, and assured me: "Don't worry, I will do my best and won't cause you any trouble."
His attitude was pretty good, so I responded lightly and turned to go back to the office, but was stopped by Fang Guoxu.
"Wait a minute!" He raised the coffee in his hand with an awkward expression. "I already bought it. It would be a waste if I don't drink it."
I hesitated for a moment, then took the coffee from him. "Don't do it again. Remember what I told you."
Fang Guoxu started his job smoothly after completing the employment procedures. He has experience as a security guard, so I don't need to worry about anything.
In the afternoon, I was working on my work when there was a knock on the office door and Gu Rui walked in with documents.
"Sister Lan." Gu Rui looked at me for help and scratched his hair irritably, "I really have no other choice."
Seeing his distressed face, I couldn't help but ask with concern, "What happened?"
"The contract I have needs to go through the finance department's review process, but they haven't approved it yet, and the client is still waiting..."
I frowned in confusion. The finance department has always been very quick in approving applications, so why is it so slow this time?
"Is there something wrong with your contract that's why it wasn't approved?"
Gu Rui shook his head confidently: "Impossible, I've read it several times, there is no problem with the contract."
I was worried that Gu Rui didn't read it carefully enough, so I asked him to send me a copy for review.
I took a closer look and found no problem with the contract. It has been under review since it was submitted this morning, but there is still no result.
"What time do you have an appointment with your client?"
"Tonight. The client is flying abroad tomorrow, and it will be very troublesome to transfer the money then."
I understood and knew that this situation could not wait, it was just a matter of the finishing touch.
I picked up the contract and told Gu Rui, "Follow me."
I took Gu Rui to the finance office. Cai Ya was in charge of the contract approval and signing. She was leisurely listening to music and watering flowers in the office at that time.
"Mr. Cai," I said straight to the point as I walked in. "My employees urgently need this contract. Could you please sign it for me?"
When Cai Ya saw me, she immediately smiled and said, "No problem. Give me the contract number and I'll check it for you."
