Chapter 294: Annual Meeting (4)
Entering the room, Chen Yun sat down on the sofa, and Qiao Yingying went to the study to sort out the tools.
The layout of this room is similar to hers, but the dΓ©cor is different, more Chinese. Her room is American, with many Western-style decorations. She actually prefers this, but the man...
Thinking of something, she curled the corners of her mouth, and the smile on her gentle face was a little self-deprecating.
Before the time to clean up, there were two cups on the coffee table in front of her, one cup had some orange juice left, the other cup was cold green tea, and there were a few red roses in the vase next to it, the flowers had fallen down and lost their spirits.
She looked at these on the table, and the scene of the two sitting on the sofa chatting and watching TV came to her mind, and a faint yearning appeared in her eyes, which quickly extinguished. She stretched out her hand and gently brushed the rose, who knew that as soon as she touched it, some petals fell down, she couldn't help but be stunned, how many days has this been placed?
Qiao Yingying came over with some things, just saw this scene, and explained embarrassedly: "This flower was bought by me and my husband at the night market yesterday, the flower seller is a child, he is running around with a basket, it looks so hard, I bought a few." Who knew that when I took it back and unpacked it, I found that the flower had already wilted, and I didn't expect that such a young child would deceive people. β
Originally, she wanted to buy Guan Mufeng but refused to let her, she secretly felt that he had no sympathy, and when she came back to find this, she knew that she had been fooled. She once again understood a truth: if you don't listen to her husband, you will suffer a loss in front of you.
"Yes, people are sometimes deceived by the surface, and they don't know repentance until they suffer a loss." Chen Yun smiled slightly, but Qiao Yingying saw a trace of sadness in her smile, and soon it disappeared again, she couldn't help but think that she was dazzled.
"Ready to go?" Chen Yun stood up and asked.
"Well, let's get some more to eat." Qiao Yingying said, took out a bakery's paper bag from the freezer, and took two more bottles of water.
"Fortunately, Mr. bought some bread yesterday, which should be enough to eat." She stuffed her things into her bag, put the easel on her back, and said to Chen Yun with crooked eyebrows, "Let's go, let's go!" β
***************
Today's meeting is the year-end summary of the Pearl Division. More than 1,000 employees filled the report center.
This year, because of Mu Feng's presence, the atmosphere of the conference is more serious than before, and all departments have to make year-end summaries and self-criticism, and no matter how good the results are, the performance doubles, they must find some bad criticism, which is the tradition of CEFC.
The meeting lasted from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and except for an hour of meal time in between, everyone sat in the room, which was torture. The only consolation is that the idol of the male employee, the male god of the female employee, sits in the spotlight, and the calm and handsome face can always drive away the sleepiness for them when they yawn.
Because tonight is New Year's Eve, after the meeting, the employees have seized their time to celebrate the holiday. No way, due to Guan Mufeng's itinerary, the group's annual meeting can only be held during the New Year's Day holiday.
Guan Mufeng also planned to leave after listening to the report and summarizing, but Mr. Yan was a little embarrassed.
"Mr. Guan, are you really not going to the evening exchange meeting?"
"You can go, Mr. Li, if they are interested, they can also go and have a look." Guan Mufeng looked at the time and thought about what to take her to eat at night.
"But the top 100 companies in the Pearl will participate, and politicians may also be there, if you are not in the pearl, I can naturally go, but you are absent..." Although they are still counting on us to contribute to GDP, it is impossible to make a big move, but such surprise inspections will definitely affect our external image. β
Guan Mufeng's face was pale, and then he smiled faintly, his eyes were extremely bright: "This matter is mostly related to our competition with Hengsheng for the Wuwan project last year."
He thought about it for a while and said to Mr. Yan: "Make an appointment with Mr. Ma and see you at the exchange meeting tonight."
"Okay." Mr. Yan breathed a sigh of relief, it was better for Guan Mufeng to come forward in this matter.
He was in a relaxed mood, but Guan Mufeng looked at his phone and frowned. After a while, he dialed Qiao Yingying's phone.
"Yingying, I'm sorry, I have a banquet in the evening that I must attend, I'm afraid I will have to go back later, and I can't accompany you to dinner." He apologized.
"Well... Okay, then I'll eat it myself. Although Qiao Yingying's tone was lost, it was much better than he imagined, Guan Mufeng breathed a sigh of relief, and Wen Sheng said goodbye to her and set off with Mr. Yan.
At the same time that Qiao Yingying hung up the phone, Chen Yun also put down the phone and ended a short call.
Turning her head and seeing Qiao Yingying's equally lost expression, she seemed to have a sense, and smiled in surprise: "You won't be like me, you have to live alone tonight, right?" β
"Well, the gentleman said he was going to come back later." Qiao Yingying looked at her, and suddenly said with some expectation, "Sister Yun, Mr. is not here, I can just accompany you, why don't we go out and play?" β
Chen Yun's eyes lit up: "Okay, then let's pack up our things and go back, and then go out to find delicious food and fun." β
"Hmm!" Qiao Yingying nodded, and the two quickly packed up their easels, and after sending them back to the room, they changed their clothes and prepared to go out.
However, after standing in front of the hotel for five minutes, they noticed two problems. First, they don't have a car, and it's hard to fight on Chinese New Year's Eve. Second, they have only been in Mingzhu City for a few days, and they are not familiar with the place, so they don't know where to find food.
"Well, Mr. has taken me to a few restaurants, which are not bad, why don't you go to these places?" Qiao Yingying thought for a while and said.
Chen Yun shook his head: "It's boring to go to this kind of place all the time, it's to eat and taste, not to burn money." I want to go to a lively place. What do you think? β
Qiao Yingying nodded again and again: "Okay, I also like to go to crowded places." But, how to get there, there are no cars around here..."
"I seem to have a way." Chen Yun thought for a while, turned around and walked towards the hall, Qiao Yingying saw her come back after saying a few words to the reception at the service desk.
"It's okay, they have a taxi service, we'll wait at the door, we should be here soon." Chen Yun said to her.
"And this kind of service, it's really convenient." Qiao Yingying immediately felt that this hotel was really good.
Chen Yun smiled: "At least two or three thousand a day here, it is not appropriate to have this service." β
"Two or three thousand? So expensive? Wouldn't it cost tens of thousands of dollars for the past few days of my stay? Qiao Yingying was so shocked that she almost jumped up, this is also too expensive, although the room is so big and so beautiful. But with so much money, it's enough for her to eat crayfish for a whole year.
Chen Yun's reaction to her was a little funny and strange, the suite they lived in was the most expensive, it cost twenty or thirty thousand yuan a night, didn't she know?
"This kind of hotel is a place for the rich to spend extravagantly, and the more expensive it is, the more people pay." Looking at Qiao Yingying's tangled expression, she said with a smile.
"But the more expensive things are, the better, even if it's gold, it's better than a bowl of white rice when you're hungry." Qiao Yingying wrinkled her little nose and didn't quite agree with the authenticity.
"Yes, a lot of things are best when they are right, but most people don't understand that. Yingying, you are such a smart girl, no wonder your husband likes you so much. Chen Yun looked at her with a smile, seeing that her expression was a little shy and sweet, and a faint sadness appeared in her heart again.
At this time, a black Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of them, and it turned out that the hotel drove its courtesy car directly. After Qiao Yingying and the others sat down, they found that the destination had not yet been decided, and finally simply handed it over to the driver master to decide, as long as it was lively and fun.
There is a section of beach in Pearl City that is very famous, which is a holiday resort, because there are fireworks on the sea tonight, and there are many people who come, and the bustle is full of heads.
The driver sent Qiao Yingying and the two to the Crown Hotel near the beach, which is not only less crowded, but also has a good view, which is indeed a good place.
It's just that Qiao Yingying was about to get out of the car, but Chen Yun suddenly grabbed her hand, looked at the front of the car, and said hurriedly: "Wait a minute." β
Qiao Yingying was stunned for a moment, followed her gaze, and found that there were several men in suits and leather shoes in front of her who were walking towards the hotel. When their figures disappeared behind the door, Chen Yun breathed a sigh of relief and smiled apologetically at her: "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person, I thought it was an acquaintance." β
"Oh, is it? Let's get out of the car. Qiao Yingying said that she was about to get out of the car, but her eyes swept ahead but she was suddenly stunned, grabbed Chen Yun who was about to open the door, and said hurriedly: "Wait a minute!" β
Chen Yun's figure paused, followed her gaze and looked at the front of the car, and couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth. Although I have only seen it once in the corridor, it is easy for people like Guan Mufeng to be remembered by others.
It seems that there is one more similarity between the two of them.
When Guan Mufeng walked into the hotel, Qiao Yingying patted her chest and said to Chen Yun embarrassedly: "I just saw Mr., if I let him know that I ran out by myself, I will definitely be unhappy." β
"I understand." Chen Yun nodded with a smile, looked at the direction of the beach, and said to her, "Then let's go to the beach, although it is a little crowded, it will definitely be more lively and fun." β
"Well, it's not easy to spot!" Qiao Yingying's eyes were shining, and she said to the driver, "Master, send us to the beach." β
So, a few minutes later, the two of them got off the bus at Lin **, which was close to the beach.
"Hey, that's the crew of the movie "Morning and Dusk", right? Is this a call for work? The pedestrian walking next to him pointed to several conspicuous yellow RVs coming from a distance.
"Yes, they have all been filming here recently, there are a lot of stars, there are actresses Su Qian, Xiaohua Tang Ruoyi... I heard that I stayed at the Crown Hotel. β
The sound of small discussions came into Qiao Yingying's ears, and she looked back at the convoy that had gone away in surprise, it turned out that Miao Miao was also here.
"What's wrong?" Chen Yun asked.
"Oh, it's okay, let's go play, I see there are a lot of small stalls, there must be something to eat." Qiao Yingying looked at the lively beach below, and took Chen Yun's hand and rushed to join the lively crowd.
