Chapter 824 Hello, Mr. Zhong
The rental house was a bit far from the Lu Group, and taxis in Zhucheng were very expensive, so Zhong Jincheng could only take the bus. He stood in the middle of the bus, holding the pull ring at the top.
The suit doesn't fit well, it's a little too big and feels baggy when worn.
There happened to be a group of young men in baseball uniforms on the bus. Looking at these boys who were full of youthfulness, tall in stature, but not much more immature than himself, Zhong Jincheng clenched his fingers and suddenly felt like he was pretending to be an adult among them.
He is only 20 years old.
But he was married, with a baby on the way, and he was already planning how to support his family.
And now he is rushing to sign a 500,000 yuan project, which sounds like something only an adult can do.
After the bus arrived, Zhong Jincheng walked to the company carrying his briefcase. He walked to the front desk and reported his name, and was let in smoothly. It seemed that the call was real. Zhong Jincheng's inner excitement became real at this moment.
Following his previous impression, he arrived at the company's investment department. He intended to look for the person who had received him, but after looking around, he couldn't see him. At this time, a female office worker walked towards him and asked respectfully, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Zhong, the legal representative of Big Ben Milk Tea Shop?"
Zhong Jincheng was stunned for a moment, then quickly responded, "Yes, it's me."
"Hello, your project has been personally approved by the general manager. The general manager said that if you arrive, you can go to his office to see him."
Zhong Jincheng exclaimed in shock, "General Manager?! He's even paying attention to my milk tea shop?"
The people nearby turned to look at him.
Zhong Jincheng smiled sheepishly, then bowed and raised his hand apologetically to the others, looking so humble that he resembled a real adult.
The female office worker smiled and said, "Yes, his office is on the 12th floor. You can go over now."
"12th floor...Okay, okay."
Zhong Jincheng turned around with a briefcase containing only a few pens. He left the investment department and walked in the corridor inside the company.
The last time he came, he was in a hurry and didn't have time to observe the scene inside the company. Zhong Jincheng discovered that the interior decoration of Lu Group was very beautiful. The floor was as smooth as a mirror, the walls were decorated with high-end carvings, and there were green plants in the corners. There was not a trace of dust on every piece of glass that came into view, just like a pure gem.
It seemed like every place was worth him stopping to take a few photos.
The employees passing by all looked elite, walking very fast and rarely stopping.
Zhong Jincheng was a little dazzled. He didn't know how long he would have to struggle to feel a sense of belonging in such a place.
Arriving at the elevator, Zhong Jincheng walked in and pressed the button for the 12th floor. While the elevator was going up, he adjusted his clothes in front of the mirror. The moment he walked out of the elevator, he took a deep breath silently.
Zhong Jincheng saw from afar a beautiful white-collar worker sitting in front of him. She was dressed like a secretary. Although she had her head lowered, she looked vaguely familiar.
"Hello, where is the general manager's office?"
Li Qingxuan looked up and smiled when she saw Zhong Jincheng. "He's right in the back, but the general manager has an emergency meeting today. He told me that if you arrive, he'll take you to the meeting room on the tenth floor."
"Ah, ah, okay, thank you."
Zhong Jincheng hurriedly thanked him.
Wasn't this person also at the Lujiajiao Restaurant? Why didn't he recognize me? Is my face ordinary? Li Qingxuan was puzzled, but she still smiled and led the way.
The two walked into the elevator. After Li Qingxuan pressed the button for the 10th floor, she folded her hands on her belly. Zhong Jincheng adjusted his suit again, then turned his head and instinctively glanced at her chest.
It was no great surprise.
“Oh my god!”
In the elevator, Zhong Jincheng suddenly exclaimed, and the noise scared Li Qingxuan.
"W-what happened?"
"You, you, you, aren't you the actor that Lu Yuanqiu hired when he rented a car that day?" Zhong Jincheng remembered, he remembered everything.
Are all these students' lines exactly the same... Li Qingxuan thought numbly, then smiled and said, "Yes."
She quickly turned serious and said, "But I'm not an actor."
"ah?"
"bite--"
The elevator door opened, Li Qingxuan walked in front and made an inviting gesture.
"plz follow me."
Zhong Jincheng followed behind in confusion, completely bewildered. If she wasn't an actor, then she was a real secretary?
Holy crap, Cao Shuang's brother is the general manager of Lu Group?!
No way.
He paused and saw Li Qingxuan in front of him stopped and looked back at him. Zhong Jincheng hurriedly followed with his briefcase.
Arriving at the door of a room, Zhong Jincheng vaguely heard the sound of talking inside. Li Qingxuan knocked on the door, and the door of the conference room was opened from the inside. Zhong Jincheng walked forward slowly, and a blue-gray square long table came into view. The long table was full of people sitting around it. In front of each person were name tags and exquisite tea cups. Behind the crowd were lush green plants.
At the front of the long table, in the corner next to the main seat, a beautiful girl with long straight black hair was lying on the table with her head tilted. A dazzling silver moon hairpin was hanging on her hair. She seemed to find the content of the meeting very boring.
The girl raised her eyes and saw Zhong Jincheng standing at the door. She chuckled, straightened her upper body and raised her hand to touch the person sitting in the main seat next to her. She could only see a black chair back, and the person was facing the door with his back.
Lu Yuanqiu turned his head and realized that someone had arrived. He turned the chair under him half a circle and looked directly at Zhong Jincheng, who was standing at the door of the conference room and wearing a loose suit.
A smile appeared on Lu Yuanqiu's face. He leaned forward with his arms on the table, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
"Hello, Mr. Zhong."
Lu Yuanqiu spoke.
"Plop." The briefcase in Zhong Jincheng's hand fell to the ground.
Lu Yuanqiu glanced at the briefcase on the ground. He didn't rush to explain to Zhong Jincheng. He leaned back in his chair and said to the other executives sitting at the long table, "The idea of printing cartoons on the packaging of Xia Yiwan Noodles came from one of our company's investment projects, Big Ben Milk Tea."
"Let us give a warm round of applause to welcome Mr. Zhong Jincheng, the brand founder of Big Ben Milk Tea."
Lu Yuanqiu looked at Zhong Jincheng, clapped his hands, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Bai Qingxia also smiled and clapped her hands. This moment seemed much more interesting to her than the boring content of the meeting.
Zhong Jincheng looked at her, then at Lu Yuanqiu, his body still stiff. Li Qingxuan walked forward to help him pick up the briefcase, and then invited Zhong Jincheng to sit in the seat in the front.
Even after sitting down in his seat, Zhong Jincheng's head was still confused.
Lu Yuanqiu raised his eyebrows: "It seems that our Mr. Zhong is still asleep. Come on, let's applaud louder."
Zhong Jincheng never thought that a group of elite men in suits that could only be seen on TV would accompany Lu Yuanqiu in making trouble, looking at him with smiles on their faces and clapping their hands vigorously to encourage him.
At this moment, the scenery in front of me seemed to slow down, like a dream, but the familiar faces of Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia were so real.
Zhong Jincheng held the empty briefcase in his arms, feeling melancholy for a moment, then he suddenly couldn't help laughing while hunching over.
