Chapter 55: A Dual Personality
Chapter 55: A Dual Character
Seeing that Liu Dong frowned and didn't speak, Jiang Tingting thought he was scared. At the moment, I couldn't help but feel a little disdainful in my heart, and secretly my choice as a friend was a little worthless, and I had no interest in continuing to talk to Liu Dong at the moment.
However, in the face of Wang Qiang's pleading eyes, Jiang Tingting said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'll warn Zhong Zhen about that kid, but I heard that his second uncle has something to do with **, so you better let him be careful!"
"Thank you, Tingting!"
Facing Wang Qiang's grateful eyes, Jiang Tingting waved her hand and muttered, "I really don't know what you like about this kid, you actually care so much about him!"
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Tingting picked up her wine glass from the table, waved her hand at Wang Qiang and said, "Okay, let's go! Out of sight, not upset!" After finishing speaking, she got up and left.
"She's gone?" watched Jiang Tingting leave, Liu Dong asked in surprise.
Liu Dong, who was immersed in his thoughts just now, didn't know that Jiang Tingting already had some opinions about him in her heart. Of course, even if you know him, you won't care. After all, unlike Wang Qiang, he and Jiang Tingting met in Pingshui, and now they are not even friends.
"Well, that's right, Xiaodong! Zhong Zhen's family relationship is indeed not simple, now Tingting agrees to help, I believe Zhong Zhen will not dare to deal with you blatantly, but he seems to have a second uncle who has a relationship with **, you have to be careful!" Wang Qiang looked solemn, and said with a look of worry in her eyes.
Hearing this, the corners of Liu Dong's mouth curled, if Zhong Zhen used his family relationship to deal with him from the bright side, then Liu Dong might really be in trouble, but if it was changed to **, then there would be a good show to watch.
"Speaking of which, since I had a fight with the Black Tiger Gang two years ago, I haven't made a move for a long time!" Liu Dong muttered to himself.
"What did you say?" Liu Dong's voice was too low, and Wang Qiang didn't hear what he said clearly.
"Oh, it's nothing! don't worry, Sister Wang! I'll pay attention when the time comes!" Liu Dong replied, but didn't say much. After seeing the worried look on Wang Qiang's face, he changed the topic, "Sister Wang, I heard you just now, that Jiang Tingting's home doesn't seem to be simple!"
"Well, Tingting's father is the secretary of our Quancheng Municipal Party Committee!" Wang Qiang's fluttering words made Liu Dong very surprised, he never thought that the father of a barbarous girl just now was actually the number one in Quancheng, no wonder Wang Qiang was so sure just now, Zhong Zhen would not use his family connections to trouble him.
Indeed, as a sub-provincial city, the secretary of the municipal party committee of Quancheng, the capital of Dongshan Province, is a senior deputy ministerial-level official who is also a member of the Standing Committee of the Dongshan Provincial Party Committee. Even on a national scale, that's a real big player. Relatively speaking, a deputy mayor who may not even be on the Standing Committee is indeed a few levels worse in the officialdom.
"Then how did you meet?" asked Liu Dong with some curiosity.
"Tingting and I are college classmates, and we are also good sisters in the dormitory! She has helped me solve many troubles over the years!" Wang Qiang said unsuspectingly.
Hearing this, Liu Dong nodded clearly, a super beauty like Wang Qiang with no background, if it weren't for Jiang Tingting's protection, I'm afraid that a powerful person would have been hidden from Jinwu a long time ago.
"Whoa......!" As the two spoke, a thunderous burst of applause suddenly rang out in the wide hall. At the same time, Liu Dong and Wang Qiang involuntarily turned around, and saw the fat man who was holding the microphone and standing in the center of the hall through the gap between people, the fat man he met in the department store this afternoon. At the same time, he is also Wang Qiang's top boss, the host of today's banquet, and Xie Zhonglin, the owner of Dingfu Jewelry.
"Let's go, let's go over too!" Seeing that everyone got up from their seats one after another, and gradually gathered in the center of the hall, Wang Qiang, as a senior executive of Dingfu Jewelry, naturally did not sit here anymore.
"Hmm!" After agreeing, Liu Dong also stood up.
"It's a pleasure to be here today. At the same time, I would like to take this opportunity to tell you the good news that the turnover of Dingfu Jewelry last quarter has exceeded 30 million! If we can maintain this momentum, then it will not be a problem for our sales to exceed 100 million this year. When the time comes, I will hold another celebration banquet for everyone here! Of course, there will be no shortage of red envelopes for everyone at the end of the year!"
When the words fell, although the applause around them was still warm, Liu Dong couldn't see much joy on their faces.
"Sister Wang, why don't you look so happy about giving out red envelopes?"
Listening to his words, Wang Qiang couldn't help but smile and said, "In our company, Mr. Xie's stinginess is notoriously stingy. I have been in the company for three years, and he tells everyone almost every year that he will give red envelopes and bonuses at the end of the year, but at the end of the year, there is nothing at all, and everyone is used to it for a long time. So basically no one believed what he said just now. ”
"If he breaks his word like this, isn't he afraid that after a long time, all employees will change jobs?" asked Liu Dong.
As for the employees at the bottom, although there is no year-end bonus, compared with the same industry, Dingfu Jewelry's salary and performance are not low, so there are not many employees who jump ship. Wang Qiang explained.
In fact, Wang Qiang still has a word, with the expansion of university enrollment, college students have become more and more numerous, good jobs have become more and more difficult to find, relatively easy and good treatment in the jewelry industry, even the most ordinary salesperson is not short of a large number of applicants.
Although, the reaction of the surrounding employees made Xie Zhonglin's face a little embarrassed, but it quickly disappeared, "The reason why our Dingfu Jewelry can have today's achievements is that in addition to everyone's hard work, we also want to thank Han's Jewelry for their long-term support to us......!"
Liu Dong was not interested in this kind of nonsense without nutrition at all, and after saying hello to Wang Qiang beside him, he returned to the sofa he was sitting on just now. But what he didn't expect was that someone sat here before him.
"To drink or not to drink?"
Looking at the red wine in Jiang Tingting's hand, Liu Dong hesitated for a moment, but still reached out to take it.
Because he didn't have a lot of money in the past, Liu Dong has never touched the cigarettes and alcohol that men will know. However, for Jiang Tingting, Wang Qiang's friend, Liu Dong is not easy to refuse.
"Can you tell me how you and Sister Qiang met?" Jiang Tingting asked indifferently after taking a sip of the wine glass in her hand.
Looking at Jiang Tingting, who was sitting opposite him, with a calm expression, and couldn't see the delicate and lively state when they first met, Liu Dong was a little difficult to adapt to her change for a while. So much so that Liu Dong wondered if the beautiful woman sitting opposite was the Jiang Tingting he knew before.
However, despite the surprise in his heart, Liu Dong still held his feelings very steadily. Moreover, the trace of contempt that appeared in Jiang Tingting's eyes now, as well as the condescending tone as if interrogating a prisoner, made him particularly annoying.
"This doesn't seem to have anything to do with Miss Jiang!" Liu Dong said expressionlessly after frowning.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that she was Wang Qiang's friend, even if he had an extraordinary background and a father who was the secretary of the municipal party committee, Liu Dong would have left long ago.
"Hmph, don't think I don't know, you're just the tenant of Sister Wang's house who works as a carpenter!" Jiang Tingting said coldly.
In Jiang Tingting's eyes, making wood carving is also playing with wood, and naturally they are carpenters like those who make furniture.
"Since Miss Jiang knows, then why bother asking me!"
Listening to Liu Dong's indifferent answer, Jiang Tingting's face showed a look of annoyance. Although Wang Qiang had spoken to Liu Dong in front of her at the beginning, looking at the relationship between the two just now, especially when Wang Qiang faced Liu Dong's intimate actions, she didn't show much resistance. This made Jiang Tingting, who originally thought that it was impossible for them to be a couple, lost her heart.
