What's it like to have an unreliable dad?
The sunlight pours onto the spacious office desk, and on the computer desktop is a design draft that is almost finished.
Qin Shi named the design theme this time: Reshaping.
In the past few months, she saw Jian Qing quietly pick up the dictionary and compare traditional Chinese characters with simplified Chinese characters when no one was around. She saw Jian Qing fumbling with various electronic products. She saw Jian Qing still elegant and calm in the fast-paced life.
Lu Wanqing, she reshaped Jian Qing.
The simple lines of the design outline the courage of rebirth, and the bright colors follow the fashion theme.
Reinvent yourself.
The executives and employees of Jianyi Company simply thought that the female president was in a cooling-off period after her divorce, and expressed great sympathy for Jian Qing.
The orders from Tianlong Group have injected new vitality into Jianyi. According to estimates by the Finance Department, this year's profits will be considerable.
Qin Shi took a sip of coffee. Everything was going in a good direction.
"This picture is good. The static lines have a dynamic beauty, which reminds people of a butterfly emerging from its cocoon." A voice came from far away.
"Lu Zhiyan, are you here to see Qingqing?"
Jian Qing's divorce procedure has been completed and she has successfully obtained a marriage certificate. In Qin Shi's view, Lu Zhiyan's mission as an attorney has ended.
Oh, no, it’s far from over. Lawyer Lu still has that girl in his heart.
"Come and get what belongs to me." Lu Zhiyan smiled meaningfully, as if reminding Qin Shi that there was something she should remember.
"Has the order been delivered? But I remember that Tianlong Group's order will not be delivered until next month. You came too early." Tianlong has a considerable number of orders to be delivered. Qin Shi was particularly impressed by the agreed delivery date of this order.
"That order from Tianlong Group belongs to you, not to me."
Just then, Lu Zhiyan's phone rang.
"Hello, it's Xiaolin. Where can I be? I'm in your CEO Qin's office. Your CEO invited me for coffee."
Qin Shi: When did I ever say I would treat you to coffee?
Although he thought so in his heart, Qin Shi was a guest from afar after all, so he didn't say anything more. He turned around and made a cup of Blue Mountain coffee.
Qin Shi repeated to herself over and over again that she made coffee for Lu Zhiyan because of the order. In order to get more orders from Tianlong Group in the future, she must keep smiling throughout the reception of Lu Zhiyan.
Before the steam from the coffee had dissipated, Assistant Lin came in hurriedly.
"Lawyer Lu, I've prepared the 'Tax Payment Status Form for Natural Person Shareholder Equity Changes,' 'Individual Shareholder Equity Transfer Information Form,' 'Property and Behavior Tax Return,' the transfer agreement, and copies of the shareholders' ID cards. Please review them."
Assistant Lin handed a thick stack of documents to Lu Zhiyan.
Qin Shi remembered that this was what Lu Zhiyan said on the first day, he wanted Jianyi's shares.
People tend to seek profit and avoid harm. Initially, when Jian Qing's condition deteriorated and Chen Cheng didn't receive ownership of the company, many Chen family shareholders registered to withdraw their shares. However, in the past few months, the Chen family went bankrupt, and Jianyi's performance improved with Jian Qing's return and Qin Shi at the helm. The small shareholders regretted their decision and refused to sell their shares.
"That's amazing, Lu Zhiyan. I never thought you could convince the small shareholders one by one during this period of time. They are all relatives of Chen Cheng, and it's not easy to convince them."
"That's not difficult." Lu Zhiyan said as he read the documents, "Chengyang Group's bankruptcy liquidation was a grand event. All we need to do is make them suspect that Chengyang Group's debts may need to be repaid by Jianyi Company, and Jianyi Company may also go bankrupt. At this time, I can buy their shares at a price higher than the market price, and they will be very happy."
Qin Shi’s focus is on the condition that the price is higher than the market price, which is not a small amount.
"Lu Zhiyan, sometimes I can't help but wonder if you and my high school classmate Lu Zhiyan are the same person. Lu Zhiyan wasn't this mysterious before."
Lu Zhiyan: "It's genuine."
Qin Shi: "How long have you been working? Did you use the money to buy shares? Did you win the lottery?"
Lu Zhiyan smiled and said, "God gave me a chance. I feel it's better than winning the lottery."
Qin Shi thought about it and realized that this was the truth.
"Then you should go find Ms. Jian. Your good luck lies with her." Qin Shi hinted.
Lu Zhiyan was puzzled for a moment and shook his head: "My good luck lies right here, right now."
Qin Shi didn't have time to savor it. A quick knock on the door interrupted Lu Zhiyan's words: "Boss Qin, something bad has happened. There's trouble on the production line!"
The person who came was Zhang Haoran, deputy director of the production line. He was usually cheerful and everyone generally called him Brother Hao.
I saw Brother Hao holding a piece of cloth in his hand and said to Qin Shi with a worried look on his face: "I don't know what's going on, but every piece of clothing produced today has a black spot on it."
When Qin Shi picked up the cloth, she saw a sudden black spot that appeared inappropriately in the center of the cloth, as if a beautiful colorful painting had been maliciously splashed with black ink.
"Have you found any problems?" Qin Shi asked.
"The production line checked the design drawings and procedures, and there are no problems."
"Stop production first, and contact the machine supplier and ask them to check it out as soon as possible." Qin Shi arranged.
Brother Haohao nodded hurriedly: "I was so anxious that I forgot to ask the supplier. Mr. Qin is really thoughtful. I will contact him right away."
After Assistant Lin and Brother Haohao left, Lu Zhiyan no longer considered himself an outsider and slowly sat down in Qin Shi's office.
"Student Qin, sometimes I have to admire the magic of fate. For example, every time I come to Jianyi Company, I encounter trouble here."
Qin Shi was a little amused and said, "You mean, Lu Zhiyan is the nemesis of Jianyi Company. As long as you come, trouble will ensue."
"No, no, no." Lu Zhiyan hurriedly shook his head: "Think about it from another angle. Whenever Jianyi Company is in trouble, I can come out of nowhere."
Qin Shi was no longer in the mood to revise the design. She fiddled with the mouse. "So, Lawyer Lu, what are your suggestions this time?"
"No matter how much defense you take, you can't guard against a thief in your own home." Lu Zhiyan said meaningfully, "When I was dealing with Jianyi's small shareholders, I realized that many of them didn't understand modern business or management. Their only desire was to get more money. Think about it, putting aside the possibility of accidents, who would benefit from such an incident?"
Lu Zhiyan's words gave Qin Shi a new idea. Jianyi Company has hundreds of employees, and each line has its own division of labor in design, production, and sales. In the past, Jian Qing was in charge of unified management. There were occasional minor problems, but the production line had never had any loopholes.
"I haven't been able to think of the biggest beneficiary yet, but I can imagine that the biggest victim is Zhang Haoran."
"How do you say it?"
"The production line's director, Lao Zhao, retired last month. If nothing unexpected happens, Zhang Haoran will take over Lao Zhao's job and be promoted from deputy director to director. Now that the production line has a problem, Zhang Haoran's position as director is in danger."
A faint smile appeared on Lu Zhiyan's lips: "I admired your paintings when I was in high school. I thought Qin Shiqin was an artist, but now it seems that you are quite smart."
"My paintings in high school?"
Qin Shi didn't know for a moment that she had been studying hard in high school. Occasionally, when she wanted to paint, she would only practice a little at home during the holidays. She couldn't imagine how Lu Zhiyan had seen her paintings in high school and even remembered them now.
"It's the class blackboard newspaper. A few times I saw you standing on a chair, Jian Qing holding onto it, and the two of you working together to draw the newspaper. One time the theme was space, and you drew a sky full of stars, which was very artistic. Another time the theme was a moral lecture hall, and you wrote the words "fairness and justice" in chalk. Even the chalk calligraphy looked very powerful."
"So that's how it is." It turned out that from that time on, Lu Zhiyan began to like Jian Qing. In a place where he couldn't see, he secretly watched Jian Qing's every move. He even knew that Jian Qing cooperated with him to draw the blackboard newspaper.
Qin Shi secretly investigated Lu Zhiyan for Jian Qing in her heart. Apart from being unreliable occasionally, this man was also quite affectionate.
Perhaps for Jian Qing, Lu Zhiyan is a good choice.
He is tall, with three-dimensional features and a nice voice. His financial resources are unknown, but judging by the speed with which he opened a law firm and acquired shares, he should be quite good. He is sometimes quite attentive to girls.
Much better than Chen Cheng.
"Mr. Qin, the manufacturer of the production line has arranged an expert who will arrive in an hour." Zhang Haoran ran to Qin Shi's office with sweat on his forehead and reported on the communication with the manufacturer.
Qin Shi nodded: "When the experts come, I will go to the production line with you to take a look."
Zhang Haoran nodded in agreement and hurried to other departments to communicate.
"This world is still kind to good people. Zhang Haoran, everyone calls him Brother Hao, he is a very nice person. Now that there is a problem with the production line, everyone is willing to help find the cause." Looking at Zhang Haoran's running back, Qin Shi sighed.
"If I were you, I would take this opportunity to give the production line a holiday." Lu Zhiyan did not respond to Qin Shi's words, but calmly made a suggestion.
Qin Shi looked at Lu Zhiyan in confusion.
"The production line has stopped. What we need to do now is, first, to investigate the cause, and second, to find a solution. If it is a human error, giving the production line staff a holiday will make it easier to find the person with evil intentions. If it is a mechanical error, the experts sent by the manufacturer can come and solve it quickly." Lu Zhiyan added.
"Lu Zhiyan, sometimes I feel like you are teaching me how to manage a company step by step." Qin Shi looked at Lu Zhiyan and felt like she was watching a teacher giving a lecture.
"I have invested several million in Jianyi, and I will be responsible for my vision." Lu Zhiyan said.
Qin Shi smiled, looked towards Jian Qing's office, and said jokingly, "What kind of vision? The vision of judging people, or the vision of investing?"
Lu Zhiyan: "Both. It depends on people's perspective."
"Qingqing, it hasn't been easy along the way. You have good vision."
Lu Zhiyan suddenly put down his coffee and smiled bitterly: "Qin Shi, you don't think that I always pay attention to Jianyi Company because of Jian Qing, right?"
"You, aren't you?" Qin Shi didn't understand. What was wrong with Lu Zhiyan, who was fine just now, suddenly?
Lu Zhiyan took a deep breath, stood up, walked to the opposite side of Qin Shi, and looked directly into Qin Shi's eyes: "I appeared in Jianyi because there is a girl named Qin Shi in Jianyi Company."
Maybe Lu Zhiyan's words were too blunt, or maybe he was too close to her, but Qin Shi's face suddenly turned red, her heart beat wildly, and she kept backing away, trying to calm herself down.
How could that be? She heard clearly the conversation between Lu Zhiyan and his friends that night. There was someone hidden in Lu Zhiyan's heart, and that person was Jian Qing.
"Lu Zhiyan, if you are joking, then this joke is not funny at all." Qin Shi still didn't quite understand.
"I'm not joking. I added Jian Qing's WeChat, helped her get a divorce, and invested in Jian Yi just because she is your friend. I can't let you misunderstand." Lu Zhiyan said seriously.
"But they said that you had a girl whom you liked for ten years. When you were in high school, you brought breakfast to the girl you liked every day..." Qin Shi's voice became softer and softer, and his confidence became less and less.
"Bacon, eggs, toast, and a glass of milk. Sound familiar?"
Bacon, eggs, toast and milk, this was Qin Shi’s daily breakfast in high school.
Every morning in high school, Qin Shi was one of the first students to arrive in class. There was always hot breakfast on her desk, sometimes soy milk and fried dough sticks, sometimes steamed buns and millet porridge, but the most frequent and her favorite was toast with milk.
High school life is tight, and lunch is eaten in the school cafeteria. Qin Shi's parents agreed that her father would prepare breakfast and her mother would prepare dinner.
Qin Shi ate breakfast for three years, and until today, he still thinks it is great fatherly love.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but dial the number marked "Qin·Unreliable".
"Hey, Shishi, why did you think of looking for me? Are you short of money?" A casual voice came from the other side. It was Qin Shi's father.
"Dad, when we were in high school, you and Mom had a clear division of labor. You made my breakfast, and Mom made my dinner. Is that true?"
"Let me think about it, it seems to be the case. What's the matter?"
"Is the toast that I have for breakfast every day delivered to me by you, or did you ask someone to deliver it to me?"
"Your breakfast? I don't remember."
The unreliable dad continued to play his unreliable style steadily, which made Qin Shi even more anxious: "Dad, think about it carefully, this is very important!"
"Breakfast, remember? I transferred money to you on time to buy it for yourself. On the first day of your school term, I transferred 20,000 yuan to you so that you could buy whatever you wanted to eat." Qin's father recalled slowly.
"So the toast, milk and other things weren't sent by you?"
"What toast and milk? I don't have time to buy that."
Qin Shi quickly hung up the phone. Why didn't she doubt this unreliable old father back then? Given that Old Qin often forgot things, how could he have delivered breakfast to her every day for three years?
When she looked up and saw Lu Zhiyan again, she seemed very embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, Lu Zhiyan, I have always misunderstood."
Qin Shi lowered her head and spoke quickly, "Well, thank you for breakfast, and everything else."
Seeing Qin Shi's awkward look, Lu Zhiyan's lips curled slightly: "It's been ten years, and you're still the same. Sometimes you're smart, and sometimes you're cutely confused."
Qin Shi couldn't accept the fact he suddenly discovered for a while.
"Let's go and take a look at the production line. I don't want the company I just invested in to suffer losses."
