Chapter 35: The Lion and the Cheetah (1)
After Lu Yunyi left, Guan Wenxiang looked at the invitation on the table, and was a little irritated for no reason.
Lu Yunyi's father, Lu Weihao, not only has a pivotal position in the business world, but also a political dignitary, in the case that the two sides have no interests, Guan Wenxiang actually doesn't want to be too close to him, but since people have come to the door directly, it will not be his style to avoid it.
It's just that the Lu family has always been good friends with the Cheng family, and at a time when the two groups of Guan and Cheng are currently in a state of competition, Lu Weihao's sudden move made him a little confused.
As soon as he thought of this, a young and pale face suddenly appeared in his mind, in Guan Wenxiang's eyes, if there is one word to describe Cheng Qixin, it is noble.
Not only is his aristocratic demeanor and conversation, not to mention his superior academic qualifications, but only by his calm attitude towards others and the seemingly innate sense of oppression that emanates from his bones, he can conclude that this successor, who has been cultivated by a good family, will be an extremely formidable opponent.
Cheng Qixin, the new general manager of Cheng's Group, faces his own challenges, I wonder how he will respond?
Although Cheng Qixin is still very young, no matter how young the lion cub is, there will be a day when he will grow into a king, and at that time, he will no longer show his sharp claws, and he will be able to make everyone surrender.
Maybe it's because he's been lonely in the mall for too long, Guan Wenxiang has some expectations for the upcoming confrontation.
After doing countless psychological construction for herself, Ye Xiaojing finally mustered up the courage to knock on the door of the study.
In the study, Cheng Qixin was busy in front of the computer, and when he heard the voice, he said without raising his head: "Ye Xiaojing, you don't need to make coffee tonight, I'll send a cup of black tea later." β
When Ye Xiaojing heard this, she plucked up her courage again, and then said to Cheng Qixin: "That, young master, I have something I want to tell you." β
Cheng Qixin still didn't look up, but simply asked, "What's the matter?" β
"I, I-" When it was really time to say it, Ye Xiaojing suddenly hesitated again, did she really want to say that thing?
When the words came to his lips, in the end it became: "I'm going to make tea!" β
"Stop!"
The unquestionable tone successfully stopped Ye Xiaojing, who had fled to the door, Cheng Qixin turned around and looked at her inquiringly, while the latter's face was in a panic.
Under Cheng Qixin's hunter-like gaze, Ye Xiaojing became more and more cramped and uneasy, and I don't know how long it took, Cheng Qixin finally retracted his gaze and said in a deep voice: "Ye Xiaojing, it's rare for you to look so panicked, what did you want to say just now?" Is it trying to confess to me? β
"I, I didn't!" Hearing this, Ye Xiaojing's face suddenly turned red.
Seeing her annoyed look in her eyes, Cheng Qixin said leisurely: "But your current expression does look like you want to confess to someone, andβ"
Ye Xiaojing interrupted him angrily: "I didn't want to confess to you, I just wanted to tell you, Manager Xu, he-"
Speaking of this, Ye Xiaojing suddenly woke up and hurriedly paused.
"What?"
Ye Xiaojing said: "No, no-"
"If I'm not mistaken, this is the second time you've asked the manager in front of me, Ye Xiaojing, tell me what you want to say!" Cheng Qixin's face became serious.
After talking about the general situation, Ye Xiaojing breathed a long sigh of relief, but looking at Cheng Qixin who was contemplative, her heart was worried for a while, she didn't know if Cheng Qixin would believe her words?
After thinking for a while, Cheng Qixin asked: "Ye Xiaojing, you said that Xu Guoqiang threatened you with the three million debts, but judging from the time you said, your repayment date has long passed; Since you didn't sell Cheng's secrets in exchange for money, how did you settle this debt? He looked at Ye Xiaojing, who was a little uneasy, and added, "I don't believe that you will borrow usury!" β
"I, I finally borrowed money!" Ye Xiaojing lowered her head and said in a slurring voice.
Cheng Qixin heard this and sneered: "I remember what you just said is that you have borrowed everything you can borrow, could it be that the heavenly immortals lent it to you in a dream?" β
Ye Xiaojing hurriedly said: "Young Master, I really didn't betray the Cheng family, please believe me!" I'm justβ"
Cheng Qixin said: "Just what? Ye Xiaojing, just based on your one-sided words, it's hard for me to believe your words. β
In fact, Cheng Qixin knew very well in his heart that Ye Xiaojing did not betray Cheng, otherwise she would not have come to report Xu Guoqiang, but he was really curious about what method they used to solve the dilemma in such a desperate situation.
"It's not that I won't say it, it's just the person who lent me the money, let me not tell you." After thinking about it, Ye Xiaojing explained in a sincere tone.
She promised that Wen Xiang would not betray him, even if Cheng Qixin misunderstood her today, she would not hesitate to do so.
However, Ye Xiaojing really underestimated Cheng Qixin.
After a period of silence, Cheng Qixin said in a low voice: "It's Guan Wenxiang!" β
Ye Xiaojing's body was shocked, and she raised her head in surprise, her eyes were full of surprise: she didn't say anything, why did the young master guess? Did you accidentally say something?
Ye Xiaojing's shocked expression further confirmed Cheng Qixin's conjecture, and he pursed his lips disdainfully: "Don't stare at me with such idiot eyes, it's actually very simple to guess this!" β
Seeing that the other party still looked confused, Cheng Qixin explained: "First of all, you said that the person didn't let you tell me, then I must know this person, and my relationship with him should be more delicate, there are not many people I know at the same time with you, and how many have a delicate relationship with me?" Secondly, if he can lend you three million casually, then this person's identity should not be an ordinary person; Based on the above two points, Ye Xiaojing, do you think there will be other candidates who meet these conditions besides your former boss Guan Wenxiang? β
After listening to Cheng Qixin's analysis, Ye Xiaojing opened her mouth, she was so surprised that she thought she hadn't said anything, but it turned out that she had already said too much.
She lowered her head in frustration, and there was indescribable chagrin in her voice: "I promised not to say it!" β
Ignoring her frustration, Cheng Qixin thought about it again, and then asked: "That President Guan looks very good to you, I don't understand, why did you resign in the first place?" β
From the assistant to the president to the maid who is called around, what prompted her to make such a choice?
Fearing that Cheng Qixin would suspect her purpose for coming to Cheng's house, Ye Xiaojing had to tell her a series of encounters with the Guan family as they were.
I see.
After listening to Ye Xiaojing's story, Cheng Qixin exhaled slightly, no wonder she was so nervous when she heard the name of the Wanxing Foundation, Cheng Qixin never thought that this girl who seemed to be weak on the outside would have such a bumpy encounter before.
At the end, Cheng Qixin said to her in an extremely firm tone for the first time: "Ye Xiaojing, I promise you!" Whether or not I work with the Wondershare Consortium, your work at Cheng's will not be affected in any way! β
