The breath of every word Ye Zhiyou uttered seemed to burn Shen Xin's heart. Shen Xin stared at his face so close to her, her heart pounding.
"Yeah...that's it. It will definitely succeed." Just before Shen Xin was about to suffocate, he pushed Ye Zhiyou away from him.
Ye Zhiyou distanced himself from her, still looking at her: "Really?"
"Really." Shen Xin silently lowered the car window a little and leaned over to get some fresh air.
Ye Zhiyou was well behaved on the road afterwards. The driver only dropped Shen Xin off at Li Ze Park and then drove away with Ye Zhiyou.
Li Muyao also went home when they returned home. She was from H City. She had come to A City on her own and signed a contract with an entertainment company, but she had never been happy. Her family did not agree with her becoming a star. Li Muyao had not made a name for herself in A City, and she had been holding back on this anger for several years.
This year is the year of her career explosion, and she can finally return to H City to see her family with pride.
Li Muyao kept a low profile all the way. After she got off the plane, her assistant escorted her to the car and sent her home directly. Her family knew she was coming back today, and it was even more lively. Even her cousins who lived out of town flew over to see her.
As soon as Li Muyao got home, she was surrounded by a bunch of relatives asking her questions. She was annoyed but couldn't help sneering in her heart. These people had never been seen when she was in the most difficult time, but now that she has made it, they have popped up like bamboo shoots after rain.
Li Muyao's house in her hometown was very small, so naturally it couldn't hold so many people. After dinner, she sent everyone away, and she finally felt at peace: "Dad, Mom, I bought you a new house in H City, and you can start decorating it after the New Year."
She casually picked up a booklet on the sofa and was about to throw it aside, but she was attracted by the person printed on it.
Isn't this the woman who followed Mr. Ye today?
Li Muyao's parents didn't notice her abnormality. They sat beside her and chatted with her about the house. Li Muyao didn't hear a word they said. She was stunned for a moment, then picked up the brochure in her hand and asked her parents: "Where did this come from?"
Li Muyao's mother took a look and said to her, "Oh, this is the promotional brochure issued by the travel agency. Your father and I are discussing going out for some fun recently."
Li Muyao pointed at Shen Xin printed on the cover and asked her, "Who is this woman?"
Li Muyao's mother said, "She seems to be some kind of tourism promotion ambassador. I've even seen her commercial on our local TV station."
Li Muyao looked at the words "Shen Xin" printed on the manual and curled his lips slightly.
Li Muyao stayed at a hotel that night. Her room at home had been used as a storage room. After arriving at the hotel, she took a shower and then sent a message to someone in her address book: "Mr. Tao, Happy Chinese New Year."
Mr. Tao has been pursuing Li Muyao for a while, but Li Muyao doesn't like him, so he is very cold to him. But today she suddenly discovered that fate is sometimes so wonderful, because Mr. Tao is the young master of Jiyue Travel Agency.
Tao Haoran was naturally very happy that Li Muyao suddenly contacted him. After a few pleasantries, Li Muyao asked him to meet for dinner.
The time was set for the second day of the Chinese New Year, and the location was Zhiweilou, which was known as a small world residence. Li Muyao booked a private room and treated Tao Haoran to a meal: "Boss Tao, I have a friend who works at your Jiyue Travel Agency. Her name is Shen Xin. I wonder if you know her?"
Tao Haoran felt that Shen Xin's name sounded familiar, and after thinking for a while he quickly remembered: "It seems that she is the promotion ambassador of our branch company. She has also recently launched a project, saying that she wants to cooperate with Yu's."
"Yu Group?" Li Muyao's eyes moved. "Isn't Yu Group in the catering business? Why cooperate with them?"
"The branch wants to set up a one-person bank. It is said that they have already discussed it with President Yu. It will be confirmed after the new year. It should be piloted in City A first."
"City A? Does that mean Shen Xin will also stay in City A?"
"That should be the case. She is in charge of this project." Tao Haoran said this, looking at Li Muyao inquiringly, "Isn't this Shen Xin your friend? Didn't she mention it to you?"
Li Muyao smiled at him and poured him a glass of wine: "Mr. Tao, I want Shen Xin to stay in H City. You must have a way, right?"
Tao Haoran was also a smart man, and he immediately understood what Li Muyao meant by "friend". He took a sip of wine from Li Muyao's hand and said to her with a smile: "Ji Yue is my family, so I naturally have a way."
Shen Xin took three days off at home and returned to the company on time on the third day of the Chinese New Year. Ye Zhiyou would stay in City A for a few more days, so Shen Xin did not have the privilege of being picked up by a private jet when she left. She brought a lot of specialties back from home for Li Shutang, who kept unpacking them while shouting that she could not eat any more.
Although Shen Xin's vacation was short, she was still very excited because she had negotiated a big deal. After work, she immediately went to Mr. Liang's office to report.
When Mr. Liang saw her, he smiled even more greasy than before: "Xiao Shen, come here, sit over here."
Shen Xin sat down across from his desk, and Mr. Liang asked her cordially, "Would you like a cup of tea? The tea leaves here are all of the best quality."
Shen Xin shook her head and said, "No thanks, thank you Mr. Liang."
"Oh, OK." Mr. Liang looked at her for a while and said with a smile, "Xiao Shen, someone from Yu's has already negotiated with us, and the company also attaches great importance to this cooperation."
"Oh, that's great."
Mr. Liang tapped his fingers on the table and said, "This project will become a key project of the company, so Mr. Tao will take it over personally."
Shen Xin was stunned for a moment and asked him, "Does that mean President Tao will be in charge personally?"
“That’s right.”
Shen thought, it's strange that the company would let her take charge of such a big project alone, especially in cooperation with Yu's. She could understand why CEO Tao took over personally, since they were all working on projects anyway: "So what will I be mainly responsible for in the future?"
"What about you..." Mr. Liang smiled at her again, "Your job will not change. You will still do the same thing in the future as you do now."
Shen Xin's brows slightly wrinkled, and she finally understood why Mr. Liang was so greasy today: "Mr. Liang means that the company doesn't allow me to participate in this project?"
Mr. Liang smiled faintly and nodded without saying anything.
Shen Xin was silent for a moment. As an employee, she really had no right to argue with the company. But this plan was proposed by her and it was something she had always wanted to do. Even President Yu was the one she met. Now she was not allowed to participate?
Shen Xin was still unwilling to give in: "Mr. Liang, why? I have been doing the early preparations for this project."
President Liang sighed and said, "This is a decision made by the head office. They will set up a special team to follow up, and the people were all selected by President Tao himself."
Shen Xin pursed her lips and wanted to say something, but she knew in her heart that since Mr. Liang had said so, it was already settled and there was no room for her to bargain. She said nothing more and just stood up and left the office.
After she left, Mr. Liang sighed and took a sip of tea. He was optimistic about Xiao Shen, but he didn't know how she had offended Mr. Tao. The company was owned by the Tao family. If she offended Mr. Tao, what future would she have?
What a pity. What a pity.
After Shen Xin returned to her workstation, she was not in the mood to work. When it was time to get off work in the afternoon, she left work on time and went home. Li Shutang was still celebrating the Spring Festival, eating and drinking happily at home. When she saw Shen Xin coming back, she burped a little and called her: "Shen Xin, you got off work so early today? It's rare."
Shen Xin thought: "Maybe I won't have to go to work in the future."
Li Shutang saw that she looked unhappy, and immediately sat up straight and asked her, "What's wrong? Didn't you just help the company negotiate a big project?"
Shen Xin walked up to her, picked up the opened beer on the table, and gulped it down without caring whether Li Shutang had drunk it before. Li Shutang's eyelids jumped when she saw this, but she didn't stop her. After Shen Xin drank half a can of beer, she seemed to feel better.
"What's going on? Tell your sister Shutang!"
Shen Xin's face flushed slightly from guzzling beer. She sat down on the sofa, hugging the cushion, and complained about the company: "The company didn't let me participate in that project. They said that President Tao formed a team and selected the people himself, and I was not included!"
"On what basis?" Li Shutang slapped her palm on the sofa. "Is there anyone in your company who is more responsible than you? Even if there is, it was you who proposed this project. Why shouldn't you be allowed to participate?"
"Burp, I don't know either." Shen Xin was drunk and drank quickly, so he was already a little tipsy.
Li Shutang thought for a moment and asked her, "Did you offend Mr. Tao?"
Shen Xin waved his hands: "No, I haven't seen him for many times, how could I have offended him?"
"That's weird, it shouldn't be like this." Li Shutang rubbed his chin and thought for a long time, but couldn't figure it out, so he said bluntly, "Then let's just quit! Whoever wants to work for this small, broken company that's trying to snatch our employees' projects can stay here!"
Shen Xin burped again and leaned back on the sofa: "I thought the same thing when I was angry today! On what basis? I went to see President Yu during the New Year!"
"Yes, that's right!"
"I lost so much hair just to revise a plan!"
"……that is!"
"And I have troubled Ye Zhiyou for so long. He helped me change the plan and recommended Mr. Yu to me, but now I can't attend! I feel so sorry for him!" Shen Xin got angry again when he said this. He opened the other beer on the table and drank it down.
Li Shutang understood what was going on, and she felt sorry for Ye Zhiyou. While Shen Xin was drinking, she secretly sent a message to Ye Zhiyou, telling him everything about the situation.
Shen Xin drank on an empty stomach and got drunk very quickly. She didn't know when she fell asleep on the sofa. When she was woken up, she saw Ye Zhiyou standing in front of her, covered in weathered clothes.
"Ye... Zhiyou?" Shen Xin was not fully awake yet. He rubbed his eyes and sat up from the sofa. "Why are you here? Aren't you in City A?"
Ye Zhiyou bent down and touched her red face, frowning slightly and said, "You've drunk too much."
"Oh, yes, I drank too much." Shen Xin nodded obediently, "So I was dreaming, right?"
She said, Ye Zhiyou was obviously in City A, how could he suddenly appear in Li Shutang's home. After knowing that the Ye Zhiyou in front of her was just a dream, Shen Xin's romance became much more unrestrained: "Come on, smile for me."
Ye Zhiyou: “…”
"Why don't you smile? You always have a stern face, even the female guests on the blind date don't dare to talk to you." Shen Xin said, and then she took action. She raised her hand and pinched Ye Zhiyou's face, and felt that it felt good, so she simply pinched with both hands.
Li Shutang, who was secretly filming upstairs: "..."
I didn't expect Shen Xin to be so bold.
Ye Zhiyou took her hand off his face with a stern face and poured her a glass of water: "Don't drink so much in the future. Can drinking solve problems?"
"Yes!" Shen Xin argued, "Li Bai once said that the only way to relieve worries is to drink Du Kang! How could what Li Bai said be wrong?"
"…This is what Cao Cao said."
"Ah?" Shen Xin tilted his head, "What did Li Bai say? Oh! I remember now, he said that when life is good, you should enjoy it to the fullest, and don't let the golden cup face the moon empty. In short, just drink!"
Li Shutang, who was secretly filming upstairs: "..."
Ye Zhiyou: “…”
Ye Zhiyou stuffed the water cup into Shen Xin's hand and touched her head: "Li Bai also said, 'I was born with talents that will be useful, and even if I spend all my money, I will get it back.'"
