Chapter 25 (Part II)

In order to participate in the preliminary preparations for Wu Zhuo's variety show, Chen Yi was officially busy, at first she could go out early and return late, and soon she simply stayed with Chu Fan in a hotel near the studio, so Chi Nuo couldn't see Chen Yi's shadow at home again, he could only use WeChat to contact her, caring about whether she ate well and slept well every day, and when he couldn't reply, he couldn't help but lose his temper, and sent a string of voices, saying that she abandoned her home, but Chen Yi's reply was always "um" and "good" , Obviously didn't click on it at all to listen, he had to send it again with text, "No matter how busy you are, you can't live outside, even if you want to live outside, you should go home occasionally to see, now there is no home atmosphere in this home at all, even if you don't go home to see, you should reply to my WeChat more, tell me what I'm busy with, you make me know nothing about your affairs like a stranger, and I don't send it to the circle of friends, so I have nowhere to understand you, so I feel very insecure." ”

Regarding Chi Nuo's complaints, Chen Yi also wanted to take the time to coax her, but when she finally returned to the hotel at night, she had to deal with the documents in the English office in Honolulu remotely, and finally she could only reply: "Good, rest early." ”

As soon as Chen Yi put down his mobile phone, Chu Fan grabbed a stack of materials and stood at the door and asked, "Are you done?"

"Can you decide on the candidates later?" Chen Yi looked up from behind her laptop, and from the dark circles under her eyes, it seemed that the workload was a little overloaded, "We should first set the process for each episode, and then decide who is suitable for our show." ”

Chu Fan walked up to her, looked at it carefully for a while, and couldn't help but smack his lips and said, "Sisters, are you okay?" ”

Chen Yi smiled bitterly, "No, it's more worrying for men than work." ”

"Our little cousin is making trouble again? Chu Fan sat down on the edge of the bed and said with a smile, "My object wants to be able to make money like you, I can keep the empty boudoir alone for seventeen or eighteen years, and I don't let go of a fart every day, you just need to send money to the family." ”

"You're a person who doesn't have feelings. Chen Yi rubbed his eyes, swiped a few times on the computer touch screen, turned to Chu Fan and said, "He likes to make trouble, I really don't have much time to spend with him recently, it's my fault, it's my birthday soon, and when I give him this surprise, I believe he won't be angry soon." ”

Chu Fan looked at it and exclaimed in surprise, "You want to give him a car, it's too exaggerated, right? You two haven't proved it yet, no, you shouldn't have been together, you two haven't been together for long, it's not his turn, if you want to send it, you should send me first." She hugged herself with both hands, and after a pretended tremble, she said, "You are like a female overlord now, and at the same time, you are a little disgusting when you make me a deer in my heart." ”

Chen Yi explained: "It's not a good car, it's less than 400,000, and he doesn't want anything else, so he keeps saying that he wants a scooter." ”

"Isn't it a good car, 'cai' is less than 400,000, is this a human word?" Chu Fan emphasized the word "cai", and said bitterly, "There is a lesson from my past, you can't be so accustomed to men, I tell you, daughters should be rich, sons should be poor, husbands are similar to sons, you can't pet, you have to inch by inch if you are too spoiled, Lawless, looking for a husband is for win-win cooperation, but not looking for a father of Party A to go home for him, no, no, what I said, Party A also gave money, you posted it upside down, that is, you found an ancestor to go home. ”

Chen Yi was not very happy when he heard the "upside down", and said coldly: "I know it in my heart." ”

"You didn't count, don't think I'm not good at talking, I don't know you yet? Don't look at you now, you seem to be cold-faced and cold-hearted, in fact, your foundation has never changed, and you are still the emotional Chen Yi. Chu Fan stood up and paced along the room idly, and suddenly thought of it and asked, "Could it be that you are making up for Chi Nuo out of guilt because you don't like him very much?"

Chen Yi stretched out his hand to her in response to the question and said, "You better show me the list of candidates." ”

Chu Fan smiled and threw the materials into her hands, then sat on the bed with his legs folded, and did not forget to chase after him while touching his waist and abdomen, "Anyone can see that you don't like him very much, people's fat can be hidden, and the feelings you like are the most unhidden." ”

When Chen Yi finally finished the first stage of the preparation of the show, Li Qizhi came to the door, which surprised her, because she had been asking him to meet and wanted to talk about Bai Yuyuan's transfer, but he always used the excuse of being on a business trip to avoid it, and today he was so proactive and booked an open-air restaurant in the hotel where she lived, just to accommodate her to be free at night.

"Sister-" When he saw Chen Yi walking out of the elevator door, Li Qizhi immediately stood up, pulled out the chair with great courtesy, and at the same time asked for warmth, "God, you have lost too much weight, don't spoil your body." ”

When Chen Yi sat down, the waiter delivered pre-dinner bread and sparkling water in time, and also sent the red wine that had been awakened in advance according to Li Qizhi's request.

Li Qizhi raised his glass to Chen Yi and said, "Have a drink, and sleep well at night." ”

Chen Yi clinked glasses with him apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't been to the company recently." ”

"I heard that you haven't shown your face for half a month, you can understand, those who can work hard, you are busy with big things now, and you are going to become a star. Li joked in a weird way, "But the shareholders' meeting still has to come, you are the golden sign of our company." ”

"First of all, the part-time job I do is behind-the-scenes work, and secondly, my own work is all done smoothly and successfully, and my brother said at the beginning, I don't have to sit on duty, right?" Chen Yi did not show weakness, and retorted with a smile on his face, "If we don't look at the performance, but really want to judge seniority according to the time we sit at the desk, any employee in the company will have more weight than me and you." ”

Li Qizhi sneered, "It's still so sharp-toothed." ”

The salad and staple food ordered by the two of them were served, Li Qizhi grabbed the knife and fork but had a distracted expression, Chen Yi tasted a bite of medium-rare steak, and took the initiative to speak: "You are in such a hurry to find me, there must be something important, you say it first." ”

"I just, I don't know where to start......" Li Qizhi took another sip of wine before sorting out his thoughts and asked in a sincere tone, "Didn't you mention before that we wanted to innovate our teaching software and replace flash with short videos?"

"Oh......" Chen Yi responded lightly - it turned out to be for this - she had indeed already made a set of elementary courses, which were originally made for Honolulu English, and even the opening logo and anti-theft watermark were pasted, but when Bai Yuyuan was suddenly entrusted with an important position, she kept an eye on it and "temporarily withheld" the textbook in her hand, an important gift when she might change jobs.

Li Qizhi continued: "You are a person with strong action, and it has been a long time, I believe you have done a good job, right?"

Chen Yi hadn't found out why he mentioned it, so he replied vaguely, "It's almost ready." ”

He eagerly asked, "Don't hide it, you won't be able to grow flowers, can you give it to me?" You are still the principal of the Honolulu English Second School. ”

"I haven't seen you ask before, why are you so anxious all of a sudden?" Chen Yi frowned and asked keenly, "Is something wrong?" Since I am the principal and a shareholder, I am qualified to understand, right?"

"It's not a big deal...... It's just that our new quarterly report is not very good, there are no results to come out, and I can't save face at the shareholders' meeting. After Li Kezhi finished speaking, he saw that Chen Yi was obviously unconvinced, so he had to be honest, "I admit that I made the wrong decision before, and from the current feedback, the return on investment in media promotion is more than the loss." ”

Seeing that he never mentioned the source of this mistake: Bai Yuyuan, I don't know whether to praise him for being a real man and responsible, or to laugh at him for being at this time, and still protecting his little lover.

But in any case, the result of this wrong choice should not be borne by Chen Yi, even if it is a penny loss, she is not willing to bear it together, so she showed a embarrassed expression and said, "Brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, after all, I and the company are both prosperous and loss-making, but I also have losses in developing this set of teaching materials, I agreed at the beginning, give me a deposit of 30% first, and when I finish, you will pay the remaining 70% of me, and I will deliver, now it depends on your situation, do you want to repay the debt?" Tell me to give it to you for nothing?"

Li Qizhi laughed dryly, his hands clenched into fists on the table, as if his nerves were tensed, and he pleaded sincerely again, "Sister, it's definitely not for nothing, I will pay you this money in the future, but now the company is in trouble, there is no cash for you, for the sake of the past, you can help me first-"

"I know what you mean, you have to explain to shareholders where the money is going, and in order to stabilize people's hearts, you want to say that the final investment is in educational software, not in the bells and whistles of marketing that doesn't pay off. Chen Yi interrupted Li Qizhi and said very simply, "I'll give you the full course for beginners." ”

Seeing that she saw through herself, and made a decisive statement, Li Kezhi was shocked and then overjoyed, "It is worthy of the person I fancy, you know me too well, the company has you, and the future is bright." ”

Chen Yi raised his palm, cut off his words again, said with a cold face, and said solemnly: " Don't be in a hurry to thank me, even if I want to fight for my life and run forward with the whole company, I can't stop a few black sheep from having to compete, Mr. Li, I am not a person who does not want to suffer, but I also do not want to clean up the aftermath for others, you want me to help you overcome this difficulty, you have to listen to me, first, immediately terminate the unexecuted delivery contract, must reach more than 60% of the total, do not hesitate to pay liquidated damages, but also recover funds as much as possible; second, I don't want cash, sign another agreement, according to the frequency of use of my teaching materials, return 2% of the profit to me; third, transfer Bai Yuyuan away from my field of vision, immediately。 ”
