Chapter 112
Qin Xiang said goodbye to Meng Huaiqing and entered the airport.
There were not many people in the airport at this time, after all, not many people could take the plane. There
was still nearly an hour before the plane took off, and Qin Xiang did not see that figure anywhere. She thought she might have seen it wrong. She heard from Guan Yuping that He Chenghua served in the Capital Military Region. How could he leave the capital so easily? She took a tour of the airport at this time and waited in the waiting room to rest.
Of course, as someone who had been working for so long, Qin Xiang could not be idle all the time, and she had no mobile phone to play with, so she could only take out the sketchbook she carried with her and start designing clothes with a pencil. It was not
until the broadcast sounded that Qin Xiang hurriedly packed up and prepared to board the plane. Not long after she sat down, another person sat down beside her.
She turned her head and met He Chenghua's rebellious and cold face.
Qin Xiang secretly felt sorry that such a handsome face had such an expression, which was a waste of talent.
He Chenghua raised his eyebrows and said sarcastically, "Why, you don't know a small person like me when you know the big boss?"
Qin Xiang hurriedly smiled and said, "Hello, Instructor He."
He Chenghua: "I am not your instructor now."
"Okay, Deputy Battalion Commander He." Qin Xiang changed her words immediately.
She looked around the cabin and found that there were still many empty seats. Qin Xiang was a little confused. Is this a coincidence?
However, she suddenly realized a problem. She asked Guan Yuping to help buy the ticket. Guan Yuping would not ask He Chenghua to buy it, right?
Looking at her expression, He Chenghua said, "Put away your expression. I bought the ticket."
However, Guan Yuping did not have a pleasant conversation when she went home to ask her parents for help. When she was leaving, she ran into him. She felt that the other party was scolded because of him, so she asked a question and then took the job of buying the ticket.
It happened that he was assigned to Yangcheng for business at that time, so he bought a seat together.
Unexpectedly, the other party was quite curious. Judging from the expression, he seemed to be dissatisfied with him. What?
Thinking of the many times he was rejected, He Chenghua's expression turned a little bad, "You are sick, if you have the guts, go down and return the ticket to me."
"No." Qin Xiang had a complicated expression and said stiffly, "Thank you."
"Put away that expression and you don't have to thank me."
Qin Xiang: "..."
Qin Xiang was not a person without temper. She had been holding it in for a long time. She turned her head and looked at He Chenghua and said, "Since you don't like me, why did you buy seats next to me?"
Obviously, He Chenghua didn't expect Qin Xiang to suddenly attack. He paused and said coldly, "It's just convenient."
"Oh, what a convenient thing." Qin Xiang also imitated his sarcastic expression and said, "I thought you bought them together because you had a crush on me."
"You!" He Chenghua glared at her and sneered, "You are so self-indulgent. I have seen all kinds of women, how could I fall for someone like you?"
Qin Xiang rarely saw his expression, and was somewhat proud, "Whether it is self-indulgent or true, only Deputy Battalion Commander He knows."
He Chenghua stood up suddenly, and just when Qin Xiang thought he was angry and moved to another seat, the flight attendant came over and said, "Fasten your seat belts and don't move around."
He Chenghua froze and sat back down, "It's not that I want to sit next to you, it's the flight attendant who doesn't want to."
"Really?" Qin Xiang leaned over and said to the flight attendant, "Hello, this gentleman sitting next to me feels uncomfortable and looks like he's about to vomit. Can you change his seat?"
The flight attendant was kind and glanced at He Chenghua with a smile. Seeing that he looked unhappy and seemed difficult to deal with, she said quickly, "Of course."
As she spoke, she unbuckled He Chenghua's seat belt herself and pointed to the back, "Sir, please come
this way." He Chenghua stood up with a dark face and looked down at Qin Xiang. Qin Xiang looked up and laughed happily with a teasing look in her eyes, "Is Mr. He so happy that he's stupid? You'd better go over there quickly before the plane takes off. Otherwise, you'll have to see me for several hours along the way. What if he vomits?"
She had to hurry up, otherwise she was afraid that they would fight along the way. She was no match for He Chenghua with her small body.
He Chenghua stood up and left his seat, but came back after a few steps. He said to the flight attendant, "I feel fine now. It's good to sit here. There's no need to change seats." After that, he fastened his seat belt and closed his eyes to rest, regardless of Qin Xiang's surprise.
The flight attendant looked at Qin Xiang apologetically and said, "Miss, if you need anything, please call us."
Qin Xiang thanked him and her eyes fell on He Chenghua's face.
Really...
he's the deputy battalion commander.
The man with his eyes closed seemed to see it, "You're like a primary school student. When you're wronged, you'll only complain to the teacher." "
Then you're a naughty and naughty kid who makes people angry." Qin Xiang didn't give in.
During the military training, he was her instructor after all. A man who knows the current situation is a wise man. She couldn't offend him. But now they were just acquaintances. Why should she let him go? She didn't believe that this man dared to fight in military uniform. If he dared to fight, she would go to the gate of his military area to make trouble.
This man knew how to anger people. He also consumed her good impression of him because he helped her buy a house.
No wonder Guan Yuping didn't want to be with such a man.
Bah, good people can be angry to death.
The man with closed eyes suddenly opened them, his eyes teasing, "Why can't you see enough? Do you think my face is too handsome and you're fascinated by it?"
Qin Xiang was shocked, with a strange expression, "Has anyone ever said that you are narcissistic?"
He Chenghua pulled the corner of his mouth and raised his chin, "Do I need to be narcissistic?"
"Zhu Bajie thinks he is the most handsome man in the world when he looks in the mirror." Qin Xiang retorted, "Besides, there are so many handsome and outstanding people in the city of Sijiu. How can Deputy Battalion Commander He be sure that he is the most handsome one and thinks he can fascinate me?"
He Chenghua looked at her and sneered for a while, "Indeed, people who don't drive a Mercedes-Benz are more attractive."
Qin Xiang was stunned. It seemed that the person she saw when she got off the car was He Chenghua, but from this tone, Qin Xiang said, "So is Deputy Battalion Commander He inferior or jealous?"
"I feel inferior? I am jealous?" He Chenghua stared at her, his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, a little more stern, "Do you think I need to feel inferior and jealous?"
Qin Xiang shrugged and sat back in her seat, "Then you are arrogant."
He Chenghua wanted to say something else, but Qin Xiang closed her eyes, "That's enough, Deputy Battalion Commander He is the most handsome and charming man in the world, is that enough?" Her ears were buzzing when the plane took off. She didn't know what He Chenghua said, and Qin Xiang didn't hear clearly.
Qin Xiang originally wanted to close her eyes and stop talking to him, but she fell asleep unexpectedly.
And she slept all the way, and was pushed awake when she arrived in Guangzhou.
Qin Xiang opened her eyes and met He Chenghua's peach blossom eyes. She was startled, "What?"
"We're here, Ms. Qin Xiang." He Chenghua's eyes were complicated and filled with disgust, "Why don't you wipe your saliva first? You can sleep so deeply and have a good dream at high altitude. Your saliva is all over the floor."
Qin Xiang took out a handkerchief from her bag and wiped it. There were indeed some marks.
But Qin Xiang didn't feel embarrassed, instead she asked, "Deputy Battalion Commander He, don't you drool when you sleep?"
He Chenghua chuckled, "Who said that to you, shame on you."
Qin Xiang simply put down her handkerchief and laughed nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter, it's not your fault, don't worry, Deputy Battalion Commander He."
He Chenghua: "You are so shameless."
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment."
The plane landed slowly, Qin Xiang unfastened her seat belt, waved to He Chenghua, "Goodbye."
He Chenghua ignored her, walked off the plane with his long legs and a cold face.
When he got outside, someone in green military uniform was waiting to pick him up.
Guan Zhibin was also waving Qin Xiang's sign, and when he saw Qin Xiang, he shouted, "Qin Xiang, here."
Qin Xiang smiled, walked over and said, "I didn't expect that Boss Guan from the Labor Department would come to pick me up in person. Thank you so much."
"It's too formal to call you Boss Guan. Come on, I'll treat you to dinner tonight." Guan Zhibin whispered, "I've called my cousins as well. Let's just have a meal together as friends. Don't talk about other things for now. I will coordinate it. If you have more goods in the future, I won't take advantage of you and will introduce them directly to them. What do you think?"
Qin Xiang looked at him and said gratefully, "I think you should make a part of the profit."
Guan Zhibin waved his hand, "It's a good thing to make money, but I also want to make friends with you."
This is also the reason why Qin Xiang is willing to deal with Guan Zhibin. He values profit but also integrity, and he is a very clear-headed person. He also knew that once Qin Xiang started doing wholesale, he would definitely get the lowest price. If he didn't have a way to get goods from him in a short time, he would definitely have to find a reliable source of goods. Once he found a reliable source of goods, he would definitely replace Guan Zhibin.
That's how business works. Good relationships are good relationships, but interests come first.
Qin Xiang smiled, with a look of cherishment in his eyes, "You are older than me, I call you Brother Guan, let's work hard in the future, maybe there will be a time for cooperation."
Guan Zhibin smiled, "Okay, I'm waiting for this day."
He didn't understand these things when he first came to Guangzhou, and he took a lot of detours. Later, his cousin told him that he couldn't just look at the present when doing business, especially in the clothing industry, where the possibility of replacement is too great. As long as you fail once, your chances of getting up again will be slim. The same applies to judging people. Don't look down on young people because they are poor. Don't look down on them because they are weak now. Maybe one day they will grow into towering trees for you to look up to.
The amount of immediate benefits is not important. You have to look at how much benefits can be brought in the long run.
Even though he has made some money in the past few years with the support of his cousin, he still feels that it is not right. Seeing Qin Xiang starting from scratch, he himself does not want to continue to live like that.
"Let's go, let's go have dinner. I borrowed my cousin's car."
The two of them went outside while talking. It was already past seven o'clock in the evening and it was dark outside. It was time for dinner.
Who knew that when they came out, they saw He Chenghua, a tall and strong man, standing there with his hands on his waist, looking at the sky under the street lights.
Qin Xiang greeted him politely, "Deputy Battalion Commander He, why haven't you left yet? Did you think the sky in Guangzhou is more beautiful, so you came here to see it?"
He Chenghua turned around and looked at them both. "I helped you that day, didn't you say you would treat me to a meal? Today is better than tomorrow. I happen to be free, so treat me to a meal."
He said it with confidence and it was also true. Qin Xiang couldn't refuse. She looked at Guan Zhibin, who said hurriedly, "Hello, comrade, I He is Qin Xiang's friend and partner. We are planning to have dinner at Nanjiang's house. If you don't mind, why don't you go over and try it together?"
He Chenghua glanced at him and said with a little disdain, "That's fine."
Guan Zhibin didn't care and smiled, "Then please come this way. I've driven over. The others are already waiting there."
Qin Xiang glanced at He Chenghua and whispered, "Deputy Battalion Commander He, no one wants to treat you to dinner today?"
He Chenghua snorted, "Why, no one wants to treat you to dinner?"
"Okay." Qin Xiang said, "Does this count as offering flowers to Buddha?"
He Chenghua snorted, "Then you can treat me again in the future, giving you a chance to show off."
Qin Xiang smiled, "I'm too nosy."
The car driven by Guan Zhibin was driven by his cousin, and the car was a bit old. He Chenghua looked disgusted from the moment she got in the car. If it weren't for the fact that this man really helped her that day, Qin Xiang really wanted to tell him that he didn't like it and got off.
The car started slowly on the streets of Guangzhou.
Guan Zhibin was very outgoing, introducing everything wherever he went. Soon they arrived at "Nanjiang Renjia", which looked quite impressive just from the door. At least in Guangzhou in the 1980s, it was already a very good hotel.
After entering, Guan Zhibin said, "Besides my cousin, there is another one of his friends, who is also the director of a clothing factory in Yangcheng. It can be regarded as a gathering among the directors."
As he said that, Guan Zhibin stopped in front of a private room and pushed the door open.
The people inside were already drinking. Guan Zhibin frowned slightly and went to introduce Qin Xiang to his cousin Guan Zhihong and others.
Guan Zhihong and others did not expect that the female self-employed person introduced by Guan Zhibin was so young and beautiful, and they were stunned for a moment.
Guan Zhibin said, "Sit down first, I'll see how we order some more dishes."
One of the factory managers, Cai, kept his eyes on Qin Xiang and said with a smile, "Indeed, let Miss Qin order some dishes quickly, I'll treat you tonight."
Another factory manager, Sun, said, "Manager Cai just said that the factory was short of funds, but now we have enough money to treat you."
Manager Cai laughed, "Whether you have money or not, you can still skip meals, but it's okay to treat a beautiful lady to a meal."
The two of them kept looking at Qin Xiang, which made her feel uncomfortable.
If she hadn't been concerned about Guan Zhibin, she would have wanted to just walk away.
Fortunately, Guan Zhihong was a nice person, and she smiled and smoothed things over, "I heard that Boss Qin is a college student at National Tsing Hua University, he is really young and promising. Zhibin is the most arrogant guy, I have long wanted to meet the person who made him praise me so much."
Qin Xiang followed Guan Zhihong and said a few words to her. Guan Zhihong glanced at He Chenghua beside her happily and said in surprise, "I didn't notice it just now, it turned out to be a battalion commander-level officer, is this your target, Boss Qin?"
Qin Xiang was about to shake his head, He Chenghua looked at the three men coldly, "Is it not possible?"
Factory Director Cai and Factory Director Sun were bored and didn't say anything. Guan Zhihong smiled and said, "They look like a couple."
Hearing this, Qin Xiang glanced at He Chenghua and showed horror.
It's really a ghost couple, there is no similarity at all, okay?
But these words seemed to please He Chenghua, and He Chenghua actually had two drinks with Guan Zhihong, and they had a very pleasant chat.
Seeing this, Guan Zhibin also breathed a sigh of relief, and halfway through the drink, he sent Qin Xiang and the others away on the pretext of taking a break.
As soon as they left the hotel, Guan Zhibin apologized to Qin Xiang, "Sorry, sorry, if I had known that they were such people, I shouldn't have let you come over."
Qin Xiang knew that this matter had nothing to do with Guan Zhibin, so she couldn't blame him, and only said, "This matter has nothing to do with you, don't you know that the other party is such a person?"
It was also her carelessness. When she called before, her third brother asked Zhao Ping to come and wait for her in advance, and she did agree, but Zhao Ping would not arrive until tomorrow noon. She felt that time was tight, so it would be better to get to know Guan Zhibin first. She didn't expect to encounter such a thing.
Although nothing would happen if the Guan Zhibin brothers were there, it was enough to wake her up.
Guan Zhibin apologized, "Anyway, I'm sorry for this matter. I'll make up for it to you separately some other day."
Then he drove Qin Xiang to the hotel and said on the way, "Yangcheng is not so safe recently, and the guesthouses may not be good, so I arranged a new four-star hotel for you. Although the price is a bit more expensive, the security is better."
Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay, as long as safety is guaranteed."
Guan Zhibin was unsure of He Chenghua's identity, so he hesitated and said, "Then Mr. He..."
"He..."
Qin Xiang didn't finish, He Chenghua leaned on the back seat, put his hands on the back of his head and said, "Since you are a couple, you must stay in the same hotel." Qin
Xiang: "..."
