This Damned Sweetness

Chapter 29

This golden scene, with an "unexpected, reasonable" O'Henry style, rushed towards Xu Qiao.

So much so that she was instantly forced back two steps in succession by the coquettish anger that broke through the door.

It really is like this... When Lin Bai just heard about the new boss, she had a bad premonition in her heart.

It's a pity that late justice is not justice, and late sixth sense can only be called painful repentance.

Why didn't she find out when Yu Jin mentioned this studio to her

It's only to blame that she has been a flower in the greenhouse for many years, not knowing that people's hearts in the workplace have become so sinister.

After going around in a big circle, I rushed to my new life excitedly, but in the end, I was tricked into the wolf's den by outsiders and my friends.

Lin Bai looked at Xu Qiao as if he had knocked over a hot pot plate, with a look of being so hot, he reminded in confusion, "Miss Yu?"

Xu Qiao came back to his senses and looked directly at Cheng Lang again.

He was still smiling calmly.

She walked into the office with an air of not losing anything if she loses, and not losing face when she loses anything. Based on the principle of "Qiao" and "Yu"'s aliases, she deduced: "Maybe this is... Mr. Shui?"

"..."

Lin Bai hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Cheng, I didn't explain clearly to Miss Yu." Then he explained to Xu Qiao in a low voice, "It's Mr. Cheng, He Mucheng."

Xu Qiao looked at Cheng Lang with a sarcasm of "you don't change your name when you're on the job, you don't change your surname when you sit down, you are really awesome", and said to Lin Bai: "Oh, so, I think he has a profligate air. I thought he was destined for water in his life."

Lin Bai turned pale with fright, and wanted to remind her to pay attention to her words, but seeing that the boss was still smiling like a spring breeze, she stopped talking, thinking to herself, just now the girl at the front desk of the studio said in the group, "This new boss looks angry. Will it be fierce if the field is so strong?" Looking at it now, I don't worry too much, this is a good thing.

Cheng Lang glanced at Lin Bai: "Assistant Lin, let's go downstairs, Miss Yu and I will discuss the contract alone."

Lin Bai let out an "ah" and backed out.

Xu Qiao immediately turned around and said, "Keep the door open."

"Do you mean to leave the door open?"

"Of course, I'm a girl like flowers and jade. When I first came to Guibao, you let me be alone in a room with a man who didn't know if he had a beastly heart hidden under his face. Is it plausible to spread the word?"

Lin Bai was too terrified to vent his anger. He glanced at Cheng Lang, but found that he seemed to be used to being scolded, and his face didn't change at all, so he followed his advice.

Although the door was wide open, only Xu Qiao and Cheng Lang were left on the whole floor.

Cheng Lang made a "please" gesture and pointed to the seat opposite the desk: "Miss Yu, please sit down."

"Everyone is gone, why don't you put on a show?" Xu Qiao stood still.

Cheng Lang saw her swearing one after another without being dirty, and was really surprised how many derogatory words she still had in her head. After watching her for a while, he finally smiled compromisingly: "Sit down first, you won't be tired after flying for more than ten hours Is it?" He explained, "I just think that since it's a workplace, it's better to distinguish between public and private, and it's more appropriate to use the private address after leaving the office."

What he said, those who didn't know would think that he usually called her Kiss Baby!

Moreover, who would have private affairs with him outside the office

But Xu Qiao was really tired. She felt that she couldn't make trouble with her delicate body, so she pulled the seat away and sat down: "Then let's get straight to the point. I've already used my toes to think about how you tricked me into coming here." Understood, no need to beautify and repeat, I just ask, what is Mr. Cheng's intention to come to this small entrepreneurial park, is he planning to experience the suffering of the people's livelihood?"

Cheng Lang glanced at her pouting mouth, and handed her the freshly brewed tea on the table: "Drink some water first, then listen to me."

Xu Qiao was a little angry when she was found thirsty after being found tired.

The new environment really needs to be adjusted. Just now Assistant Lin patronized her to show her around, and didn't even pour a glass of water. His eyesight was really bad.

She drank half a cup of scented tea, and seeing that Cheng Lang still didn't speak, she tapped on the table and urged, "Aren't you busy? I'm not really here to drink tea with you, Please tell me, Xiao Cheng, what exactly are you trying to do by colluding with my friend and doing this sneaky thing?"

Cheng Lang nodded: "Answer the first question first: I am very busy, so even though I have a stake in this studio, I will not come to work from nine to five. At this stage, the total time I spend here in a week should not exceed three hours."

"Second question: I admit that I have used some extraordinary means in this matter. You have reason to accuse me, but I don't agree with the word 'stealing'. The premise of stealing is that I want to get something, but the fact is that this For half a month, I hired someone to renovate the craft room downstairs, which cost more than 3 million RMB. With the expansion of the craft room and the improvement of equipment, this number will continue to increase, but I have not received compensation so far .”

Xu Qiao laughed angrily: "At this moment, at this moment, here, I, Xu Qiao, are right in front of you. Isn't this your damn reward of three million?"

"..." Cheng Lang felt that he might have underestimated Xu Qiao's concept of money.

After a moment of silence, he nodded, "If the price of meeting you is three million, then well, I'm indeed stealing."

What is this "If you want to think like this, then I can't help it" standard scumbag quotes

Xu Qiao looked at the ceiling for a while and kept calm: "I hear what you mean, the money is not spent just to see me, so what do you say it is for?"

"Investment. In addition to Lanchen, my investment fields are also involved in various other industries - catering, entertainment, medical care, education... You can understand that I am investing in this jewelry studio, or it can be understood that I am investing in According to Ms. Yu, you are a future jewelry designer who will surely occupy a place in the jewelry industry in the future."

Xu Qiao really wanted to compare him with his words.

Just now when he said "invest in this jewelry studio", she planned to stretch out her thumb and index finger and make a "one meter" gesture to ask him whether it is necessary for a big CEO to make such a small investment, but wait for him When it came to investing in her future jewelry designer, she unconsciously let go of her hand.

That's a really, really well worthwhile investment.

Xu Qiao took Joe's Fan'er together: "Xiao Cheng has always been in the business field. You should know that choices are always two-way. If you want to invest in me, why should I obediently invest in you? After all, you also said that my future is Unlimited, those who admire me may be able to line up from here to the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan, why should I choose you?"

"That's why I'm waiting for you here today." Cheng Lang gently pushed a stack of contracts with no less than 30 pages in front of her, "As you said, choices are always two-way, so you Let's see if the conditions I offer can meet your selection criteria."

Xu Qiao glanced at this, which was obviously more than the thickness of the general labor contract pages, and her face was ugly.

Who wouldn't say something so obedient, and they keep talking about investment, but it's just a fig leaf for ulterior motives.

After staying in this circle for so many years, I have never seen and heard too much of that kind of dirty "deed of prostitution".

She picked up the spine of the contract book and shook it, and said with a smile: "Such a thick stack, densely packed, is all word games that you businessmen are proficient in. Let me, a layman, take a look? I don't understand the twists and turns in the workplace, but I'm not stupid, don't try to cheat me with a contract from the commanding heights."

"The reason why I took the initiative to reveal my identity before you signed the labor contract is precisely because respecting the spirit of the contract is my bottom line as a businessman and also my bottom line as a man. I can use my personality to guarantee that I will not do that. Of course, if you still don't believe me for such a low-level thing," Cheng Lang changed the subject, "You can ask a professional lawyer to review this contract for you, and I will bear all the expenses."

"Of course I don't believe it. Why should I believe in the personality of a man who touched my hand while I was sleeping?"

Turning over old accounts may be a woman's talent, Cheng Lang was irrefutable and silent for a moment: "Then arrange a lawyer for you tomorrow." He looked at his watch again, "It's getting late, I'll take you to dinner."

Xu Qiao stopped him with his palms: "Mr. Cheng, who said that public and private are clearly distinguished? Don't say that we haven't established an employment relationship yet. Even if we do, it seems that the boss said to the employees, 'I'll take you to dinner'. Have you crossed the line too?"

Cheng Lang raised his head and looked into her sly and bright eyes.

Those eyes are probably saying—do you think that the employment relationship can provide convenience for you to do whatever you want? Tell you, this is the beginning of your own hands and feet.

Cheng Lang looked at her without blinking.

Xu Qiao glared back at him not to be outdone.

There is such an unscientific saying that if a man and a woman look at each other for more than eight seconds, the chances of their falling in love with each other will double.

But now it seemed that Xu Qiao only wanted to fight Cheng Lang to start a war.

So after a few seconds, Cheng Lang gave in first: "Okay, I misused the word, so let's rephrase it—as the host of Berg Jewelry Studio, do I have the honor today to be invited to visit and consider joining the future jewelry designer?" have dinner together?"

Xu Qiao rested her chin, listened to the string of invitations that were as rigorous as a graduation thesis with great interest, nodded in satisfaction, and when Cheng Lang reached for the mobile phone on the table and was about to get up, she smiled in time and said, "No."

"...?"

She looked at him with a smile: "I mean, sorry, I don't think you have the honor."

Xu Qiao felt that if there was a picture of nuclear fission, it would probably be Cheng Lang's face when he was rejected by her just now.

She knew these mature men of high society.

Wealth and power wash them away day after day, keeping them noble anytime and anywhere, nourishing their faces to be false and pretentious, even for "picking up girls".

Sometimes she felt that although Cheng Ye was a scumbag, he was a real scumbag, and apart from his immoral behavior, he was cuter than a high-ranking person like Cheng Lang.

Of course, from an objective point of view, she couldn't blame Cheng Lang for being "uncute". After all, this is the influence of his living environment since he was a child. He is in a high position, and he has to put on such a posture on many occasions when he is exposed to others. Over time, he gets used to it and becomes natural.

But as the object of being "bubbled", she does not accept this kind of virtue.

This dog man, seeing that she has no money and is easy to bully, wants to go back and pick her up again

Sorry, there is no such shop after passing that village. The current situation is that those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, and those who have no money are not afraid of those who have money. She just wanted to tear off his high mask.

Xu Qiaoxiao left the studio gracefully, sat in the back seat of the Cayenne, and told the driver with a cold face: "Go to the law firm."

"Which law firm do you go to?"

"Find me a law firm that is low-key but reveals a strong character, has a strong character, and never loses its personality."

The lawyer who accepts Cheng Lang's arrangement to review the contract is tantamount to being a fish on the cutting board and letting him slaughter it. If this is the case, there is no need for this link to exist.

So the lawyer has to be entrusted by herself.

She wanted to see how much Cheng Lang's personality was worth.

After being stunned for a moment, the driver drove the car out of the Pioneer Park.

Xu Qiao thought for a while, then changed her words: "Wait a minute, don't look for it, drive to the city first, and stop wherever I say."

The days are short in winter, and today is cloudy again. Xu Qiao walked around the city, and the sky completely darkened.

But this is also good, the night is convenient for her to operate secretly in this city.

Xu Qiao finally asked the driver to stop in front of a 30-story office building near the urban area, put on a mask and sunglasses and went to a law firm on the 26th floor.

Her fully armed attire is not unusual for lawyers who are used to storms.

After all, they have encountered too many clients who are unwilling to act in a high-profile manner.

The girl at the front desk of the law firm asked her if she had an appointment.

Xu Qiao directly handed the contract in front of her: "No, I need a lawyer who is proficient in labor contract law to review this contract. The price can be set by him, four-digit, five-digit, six-digit... no problem."

Anyway, Boss Cheng said that all the expenses will be borne by him.
