Chapter 46 Why did Qu Ge lie to him?
"Sister Wenjing."
"Are you here? Sit wherever you want~"
In the office, a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her early forties was busy working at the desk.
She wore a plain face, simple and capable clothes, and a calm and elegant demeanor. She wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on her nose, and her whole temperament exuded a scholarly air that needed no embellishment.
When she heard Qu Ge knocking on the door, she answered without even raising her head.
She was busy helping students revise their papers and couldn't spare the time to greet her.
Qu Ge didn't hesitate and went into the room and sat down on the sofa.
After knowing each other for three years, they no longer need those polite formalities.
After waiting for a few minutes, Hu Wenjing finally closed the computer.
"Hey, what are you doing sitting here? Go make some tea!"
"No need, Sister Wenjing. Actually, I came here today because I want to ask you for help with something. I'll leave as soon as I'm done. I won't keep you too long."
The song gets straight to the point without beating around the bush.
Hu Wenjing likes her straightforward personality.
"Okay, just tell me what you want to say!"
"I heard that the Canadian Black Orchid Group has officially entered the domestic market, established a branch in Jiangzhou City, and hired you as their domestic market consultant with a high salary."
"Haha, you're well-informed! Yes, the Black Orchid Group did contact me. However, I'm still considering it. You know, I have enough to do at school, and I have to go back to spend time with my husband and children! How can I have so much time~"
"Sister Wenjing, to be honest, I came here today just to ask you to help me build a bridge."
"You want to join Heilan?"
"Yes."
Qu Ge looked through all the files in Qiao Xuan's computer last time.
She discovered that during this period, Qiao Xian had been in close contact with a company called "Hei Lan", hoping to get an opportunity for cooperation between the two parties.
Qu Ge searched the Internet for information about the Heilan Group.
Only then did she find out that the largest shareholder of Hei Lan was her biological father, He Qing, whom she had never met!
If she could enter Heilan now, it would undoubtedly be a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone!
"Sister Wenjing, I'm about to graduate and I need a good internship opportunity right now. I think there's no better choice for me than Heilan."
The Black Orchid Group is backed by Canada's largest financial group and is very powerful.
Countless people are trying their best to get in.
Hearing Qu Ge's words, Hu Wenjing smiled knowingly.
She had always admired the fact that she never hid her ambitions.
Every time Hu Wenjing sees Qu Ge, she feels like she is seeing herself when she was younger.
At that time, she was just like Qu Ge now, wanting to get the best for herself in everything.
Whether it is grades or career.
And it turns out that she really deserves the best.
Because she works hard enough and tries hard enough!
"Xiao Ge, you didn't disappoint me." Hu Wenjing took a sip of hot tea and said with a smile, "To be honest, I was very uneasy before you came to see me today. Recently, your affairs have been making a lot of noise on the Internet. Although I rarely go online, I have seen a lot of it. I was very worried that you really are like what people say online, just wanting to marry into a wealthy family and get rich without working. When you called me and said you had something to tell me, I was really afraid that you would tell me that you wanted to drop out of school to get married and have children!"
Hu Wenjing was indeed relieved to know that Qu Ge came to her for career reasons and not to give up her studies.
She felt relieved and patted her shoulder.
"Don't worry, I'll help you arrange what you asked. But you must promise me that you will never give up your future for any man! You're still young, forget about things like getting married and having children!"
Hu Wenjing spoke earnestly.
Qu Ge heard a hint of regret in her words.
Hu Wenjing seemed to treat her as her past self. When she gave her instructions, she was actually giving herself instructions.
If she could do it all over again, she probably would not have married and had children so early, but instead devoted herself to her career, fought her way through the crowd of men, and carved out a world of her own...
…
With Hu Wenjing's letter of recommendation, Qu Ge soon received an interview notice from Heilan Group.
She was well prepared and full of confidence.
However, she never expected that—
When she walked into the meeting room, the interviewer sitting in front of her...
It turned out to be Rong Zhoubai!
"you……"
"Ms. Qu Ge, please introduce yourself."
There were two unfamiliar interviewers sitting on both sides of Rong Zhoubai.
It seemed that they didn't know that Qu Ge and Rong Zhoubai knew each other.
Rong Zhoubai didn't intend to speak, but just watched her performance with a frown.
Seeing this, Qu Ge had no choice but to take the exam.
Fortunately, she was well prepared.
Although Rong Zhoubai disrupted his train of thought, he did not make any major mistakes during the interview.
After half an hour of interview, the other two interviewers except Rong Zhoubai were very satisfied with Qu Ge.
One of the interviewers was about to say something when he was interrupted by Rong Zhoubai.
"You guys go out for a moment. I want to talk to Miss Qu alone."
"Okay, Young Master Rong."
The two men were respectful to Rong Zhoubai and quickly disappeared at the door of the conference room.
After closing the door, Qu Ge frowned instantly.
"What are you singing about?"
"Tsk, Miss Qu, is this your attitude towards your interviewer?"
Rong Zhoubai shrugged his shoulders and smiled playfully, completely losing the serious look he had shown in front of others just now.
Qu Ge curled her lips, too lazy to join in the fun.
"So, you are the person in charge of the domestic branch of the Black Orchid Group?"
"I guess so."
"What do you mean by considered?"
"The president of the domestic branch of the Black Orchid Group is nominally Gus."
"What actually happened?"
"It depends on my mood."
Rong Zhoubai laughed shamelessly.
What he meant was that as long as he wanted, everything would be under his control.
Qu Ge couldn't help but frown.
I originally thought I could find a reliable ally for myself.
Now it seems nothing special.
Qu Ge suddenly felt a little discouraged.
Rong Zhoubai saw through her thoughts and said with a smile, "Do you have so little confidence in me?"
"Why don't you look in a mirror?"
It’s not that Qu Ge has no confidence in Rong Zhoubai, but his nonchalant look makes it hard to trust him.
Moreover, several times before, whenever she needed his help, she could never contact him.
She didn't believe him if he didn't do it on purpose.
This man has too many secrets.
She could only trust him three-quarters at most.
Seeing that it was getting late, Qu Ge urged: "Excuse me, interviewer, how was the result of my interview?"
"Miss Qu is so outstanding, of course you are welcome to join us."
Rong Zhoubai smiled and handed over an employment form with her name already filled in.
It seemed that he had known she would come and had even prepared the formalities.
So, the past half hour was just a show?
Qu Ge couldn't help but roll his eyes at him again.
She took the documents and was about to leave.
At this moment, the door of the conference room was suddenly opened.
The blond, blue-eyed Mr. Gus, whom I had seen at the dinner party last time, came in.
"Hello, Miss Qu, from today on, you will be my assistant. Coincidentally, I have an important dinner tonight. You should be able to accompany me, right?"
Dinner party?
tonight?
Qu Ge looked up at the clock hand which was pointing to 6 o'clock.
I haven't even completed the entry procedures yet, but I have to accompany my boss to a social event.
This kind of work pace is really unheard of.
Qu Ge turned and looked at Rong Zhoubai.
You don't have to guess to know that this must have been arranged by him again.
No wonder Gus “didn’t” recognize Rong Zhoubai’s identity at the dinner last time.
It's not that he didn't recognize it.
It’s just that they had already agreed to pretend not to know each other.
…
Half an hour later, Qu Ge, Gus's assistant, followed him into the box.
When he looked up, he happened to meet Qiao Xuan's sharp eyes.
Qu Ge was not surprised at all.
If she wasn't here to see Qiao Xuan, Rong Zhoubai wouldn't have to rush to ask her and Gus to come together.
Although she didn't know why he had planned this dinner, since she was already there, she had no choice but to sit down.
Across from her, Qiao Xuan stared at her intently.
He didn't even need to say anything, Qu Ge knew he wanted to ask her why she was here.
Before she could introduce herself, Gus spoke first.
"Chairman Qiao, this Miss Qu Ge is my new assistant. You two should be old friends, so there's no need for me to introduce you, right?"
"Mr. Gus, your vision in selecting assistants is truly unique."
Qiao Xuan spoke, his voice filled with undisguised displeasure.
He was always calm and composed, but at this moment he couldn't keep himself from being affected by his emotions.
He couldn't take his eyes off Qu Ge.
All he could think about was why she was with Gus and why she hadn't told him anything before?
She had clearly told him this morning that she was going to school to meet with her tutor.
Why would she lie to him?!
"Chairman Qiao, Chairman Qiao? Are you listening?"
Gus shouted, interrupting Joshua's confused thoughts.
When he came to his senses, he saw a contract placed in front of him.
Gus's face was filled with dissatisfaction: "Chairman Qiao, it seems that you are not very interested in our cooperation this time?"
"Sorry, I'm not feeling well. I have to excuse myself for a moment."
Qiao Xuan was in no mood to look at the contract at the moment.
He stood up and quickly left the box, while taking out his cell phone to send a message to Qu Ge.
"come out!"
