It had only been two days since the two of them separated, but Xie Yunshu was already a little uncomfortable, especially when she went to bed at night without a man to warm her bed. Even two hot water bottles felt cold to her.
Shen Subai's low voice came from the other end of the phone, sounding numb: "The same thing, I can't sleep at night because of thinking about it."
Xie Yunshu's nervousness finally relaxed after hearing his words: "At the garment factory, I met with Sister Jiang yesterday and are planning to start work ahead of schedule. Maybe it will be finished before April."
With Li Shengli and Qiangzi leading the work, she had less worries and didn't have to go to the construction site every day.
Chen Subai hummed: "After I finish my work here, I will go back to Jingbei."
"Goodbye." Xie Yunshu sighed: "It's okay for you to come back. You still have to worry about the wishes of Pengcheng and Haicheng. You should focus on your own things."
Shen Subai chuckled, but before he could speak, someone called his name: "Mr. Shen, do you want to have lunch together?"
Xie Yunshu was stunned for a moment. It was a woman's voice. She sounded very young and spoke in a familiar voice, as if she had known Shen Subai for a long time.
But ever since she met Chen Subai, there seemed to be no woman around him. Even with Tang Lin before, he kept aloof attitude.
This woman is his colleague?
Shen Subai was silent for a while before she listened to his voice again: "If you can't see your wife even if you make money, you might as well sell roasted sweet potatoes at home. Be good, finish your work here, and then go back to Jingbei."
Xie Yunshu wanted to ask who was talking to him just now, but he felt that asking this question was a bit of an exaggeration, so he suppressed the discomfort in his heart. Before hanging up the phone, he hummed and said, "Then you should keep yourself clean."
Shen Subai smiled: "As you command."
On this end, Shen Subai hung up the phone, put away the smile on his face, and returned to his serious temperament.
He turned around and glanced at Ji Xiao: "Manager Ji."
Ji Xiao seemed to have long forgotten the unpleasant experience in Gangcheng. She came to Pengcheng this time specifically to find Shen Subai to coordinate foreign trade cooperation.
She was a woman of great ability. Although she climbed to the top by means of that kind of means, she finally had some real power in her hands. From being a womanizer to serving men, Mr. Chen now gave her all the management rights of the mainland.
She paid a lot of price in the process, but no matter how to say it, she is no longer the woman supported by Chen Xiansheng, but the manager who sits opposite Shen Subai.
"What are you going to eat for lunch?" Ji Xiao shook her long curly hair, exuding her femininity unintentionally: "It's a good opportunity for us to discuss the affairs of Haicheng Company during this time."
She is an expatriate manager and will work in the Mainland for one year.
Shen Subai didn’t refuse: “녦뀪.”
There was a flash of surprise in Ji Xiao's eyes. She knew that Shen Subai was married and the call just now was to his wife. After her blatant seduction last time, she thought Shen Subai would avoid her like the snakes and scorpions!
It seems that she still doesn't know enough about this unfathomable Mr. Shen...
It was not until they entered the restaurant that Ji Xiao realized that it was not just her and Shen Subai who were having dinner. There was also a handsome man who looked to be in his early thirties, but his appearance and temperament were much worse than Shen Subai's.
"Mr. Shen, who is this?" Ji Xiao asked with a smile, but she was unhappy in her heart. She wanted to have dinner with Shen Subai alone.
Shen Subai introduced him gracefully: "This is Manager Xiao from our company's trade department. He will be responsible for the liaison work with Hong Kong workers. Manager Ji, our company attaches great importance to this cooperation, so we specially arranged Manager Xiao to be in charge."
Manager Xiao was dark and thin, not very tall, and his smile was somewhat vulgar, but he was very shrewd and mercenary in his words and deeds: "Manager Ji is so beautiful, I'm so lucky to work with you. You can contact me anytime for after-sales service, day or night, and I promise to get you a job without saying a word!"
He raised his glass again and said, "Manager Ji looks quite young, she should be younger than you, so you should be so shameless as to call me Sister Ji!"
Ji Xiao had worked her way up among men, and she could tell a man's quality at a glance, so she felt that a man like Shen Subai, who was already in a high position but was so affectionate, was rare and precious.
She never believed in a man's sincerity, so she was more interested in Shen Subai, wanting to know how much he could endure the beauty that came to his door.
I failed in Hong Kong last time, and this time I came to the mainland. The contract between the two of us has been signed. Even if I send something, it has nothing to do with my intention. Isn't he tempted?
Just now, Shen Subai smiled and agreed to have dinner with her. Ji Xiao thought that this man was finally not so serious, but she didn't expect that he would push the business to another man! In other words, she couldn't even get close to him under the name of a client?
After forcing a smile, Ji Xiao looked at Shen Subai: "Mr. Shen, it's not good for you to push such a big favor to other people, right?"
Shen Subai didn't drink, but he clinked his glass and glanced at Manager Xiao.
Manager Xiao is from the south, a smart guy. He immediately smiled and raised his glass, showing the greasy man in the bar: "Sister Ji, what you said is right! Our Boss Shen is doing business all over the world, how can he have the time to focus on an order in Gangcheng? Don't worry, Brother Wang is here, and I guarantee that our business will be done without any mistakes!"
Ji Xiao couldn't laugh. She was also smart. How could she not understand the hidden meaning in these words?
The subtext of this surname Xiao is that Gangcheng is not interested in her. With her status and position, she is not worthy of dealing with Shen Subai at all!
Years ago, Shen Subai spent more than a month trying to get the order from Gangcheng. In just a few months, am I no longer qualified to talk to him on an equal footing?
But when she looked at Shen Subai with her beautiful eyes, Shen Subai also raised his eyebrows: "If Manager Ji is dissatisfied with the workers here, you can also communicate with Mr. Chen. Maybe you are more adapted to the working environment of Gangcheng?"
If it was just a subtle hint just now, now it is a naked threat!
Ji Xiao couldn't help but feel wronged. She hadn't done anything bad to him, and even took the initiative to show her kindness to him. Was he really treating her like this?! Did he know how difficult it was for him to climb from a mistress to a position as a company manager?
If Mr. Chen knew about this, all her efforts would be in vain!
But Shen Subai had no expression, just looked at her calmly: "Manager Ji, what's the matter?"
Ji Xiao bit her lip in despair: "I have a good impression of Manager Xiao, we will definitely have a pleasant cooperation."
