Zhu Tingyue tried hard to control her anger, and managed a smile. She said to the two people with some embarrassment, "Regarding the question you raised, I think it is necessary to ask my partners for their opinions. Please wait a moment, I will be back soon."
Even though she had never discussed cooperation, she subconsciously felt that it was inappropriate for her to leave in the middle of the process. But she couldn't say that she didn't understand!
It's all Shi Yuan's fault. What kind of cheat sheet did he give me? It's useless and only makes me angry.
Shi Yuan was waiting for the news of her triumphant return, and found it incredible to see her come out.
"It's settled? So quickly?"
"Fast? How can it not be fast? With your cheat sheet, won't it be twice as fast with half the effort?"
In front of everyone, she tried her best to control her tone, but Shi Yuan, who was good at observing people's expressions, still heard her sarcasm.
"What's wrong? Didn't you reach an agreement?"
The partner was still waiting, so Zhu Tingyue had no time to joke with him. She glared at him coldly and said, "Come in with me."
"Ah? I'm going in? Didn't I specifically ask you to go..."
"Hmm?" Zhu Tingyue turned her head and looked at him sideways.
Shi Yuan silently swallowed the words he hadn't finished saying. A man who knows the times is a hero, and a wise man will not suffer a loss in front of him. So he endured it.
The two men came in and the negotiations started again.
Shi Yuan talked freely, and Zhu Tingyue felt that although Shi Yuan was not a very good person, his business ability was definitely fine, and Chen Yanqiu had a good eye for choosing partners.
The preliminary cooperation intention was reached and both parties were quite satisfied. Xu Jie packed up the documents slowly and leisurely. Seeing Zhu Tingyue was about to stride out, she hesitated to speak.
Li Qingyu looked at her, then at Zhu Tingyue, and spoke for her: "Mr. Shen, if you don't mind, let's have dinner together later!"
Zhu Tingyue didn't expect that she would have to eat with Shi Yuan after finishing the work. She looked at Shi Yuan with an inquiring look.
Shi Yuan raised a professional smile and gave a reply: "Of course, we would also like to thank your company for giving us the opportunity to cooperate. Today, on behalf of our company, I would like to invite two beautiful ladies to dinner. I wonder if you can take the time to come?"
No wonder he is a person who likes to be in the spotlight. Listening to what he said, Zhu Tingyue was happy, let alone others.
Xu Jie and the other person agreed immediately.
Look at the time, it’s almost time to get off work, so I might as well leave now.
Zhu Tingyue took advantage of Shi Yuan's driving time to make a reservation at her family's restaurant.
When they arrived at their destination, Shi Yuan looked at the luxuriously decorated restaurant in front of him and repeatedly asked Zhu Tingyue, "Did you book this?"
Zhu Tingyue confirmed the address and said to him, "Yes, it's here, that's right!"
"You got rich? You suddenly became rich?"
"No!" There is no such thing as getting rich overnight, it's more like losing money.
“Then you actually…” Shi Yuan looked at the partner who had already arrived and shut up. “Forget it, forget it, get out of the car.”
The waiter came over warmly and led the four people to sit down. Zhu Tingyue handed the menu to Xu Jie and Li Qingyu. After some shoving and pushing, the two sides finally ordered the dishes.
It is said that Zhu Tingyue hates dinner parties. She is not familiar with the people here, and she is pushing the invitation to others to show her narrow mind, which is very fake.
Zhu Tingyue didn't say anything. Xu Jie looked at her several times, but she ignored her.
Shi Yuan broke the awkwardness at the right time and asked Xu Jie: "Miss Xu, excuse me, do you know Yan Qiu?"
Before Xu Jie spoke, she lowered her head. When she raised her head again, her cheeks were flushed. As she looked at Zhu Tingyue, a smile spread across her face.
"I know you. We are... friends."
She wanted to say something but hesitated, her eyes full of affection, which made the others look at Zhu Tingyue in an ambiguous way.
"Oh, so that's it! Our Yan Qiu is indeed good. Not to mention his good looks, his work ability is also quite outstanding. His future is limitless. Miss Xu, you really have a good eye!"
Zhu Tingyue was originally very angry. Chen Yanqiu actually became friends with Xu Jie? She didn't even know it!
But when she heard Shi Yuan's words, she blushed for Chen Yanqiu. How could Chen Yanqiu be as good as Shi Yuan said? He was just flattering him.
The other party who was praised was even more embarrassed. Li Qingyu responded with a tactful look: "Yes, Mr. Shen is also a friend of Miss Xu, and he has a partner like you. It's really enviable."
After hearing this, Shi Yuan smiled, revealing a row of white teeth. His smile was as bright as the sun, and his whole body seemed to be emitting a dazzling light.
"You're too kind. It's our honor to work with two beautiful and capable people like you." He picked up the water glass and said, "Come, let's celebrate the smooth progress of our cooperation."
The four of them raised their glasses to celebrate, the atmosphere became lively, and they ate and chatted.
Xu Jie's topic was still Chen Yanqiu.
"Yan Qiu, how are you doing recently? Are you busy with work?"
Zhu Tingyue was unhappy with her warm tone. When did Chen Yanqiu become so familiar with her? Could it be that they were secretly doing something behind her back? She would have to ask Chen Yanqiu later.
Zhu Tingyue replied nonchalantly: "It's OK."
Although her efforts were met with a cold reception, Xu Jie did not get discouraged and continued to show her enthusiasm time and time again, either picking up food for guests or showing concern and greetings. She never had a moment of rest during the entire dinner.
The two people next to him were like a foil, especially Shi Yuan. His eyes were full of accusation when he looked at Zhu Tingyue, with a few big words clearly written on them: Don't know what's good for you!
Li Qingyu ate in silence, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible.
Zhu Tingyue felt that she was being harassed. She originally thought that she was just going to have a quiet meal, but Xu Jie's mouth never had a break. Her mouth was really tired, working overtime all the time.
She suddenly understood why her father always sat on the sofa without saying a word after coming back from a drinking or dining party. He must be exhausted!
