Chapter 119: A Man's Desire to Conquer
Another week has passed, and not long after the flower girl opened for business today, Ding Siyao came to the store with some information in her hand.
She handed it directly to Jia Yi and said, "The next event is scheduled for next month, and the preparation time is relatively long, but there will be more people and activities, so we need to plan well." β
Jia Yi flipped a few pages of information, then handed it back to her, saying, "You should be more experienced than me, so you call the shots, and we will cooperate with you." β
"But you should be more familiar with the venue than me, and I think the effect will be better if the activity and the space fit seamlessly."
Jia Yi couldn't help but look around and said with a smile: "It seems that Miss Ding intends to form a long-term cooperation with the girl in the flower room?" β
"You don't want to?"
"Of course I do, it's a good thing for the girl in the flower room, but I don't understand why just one event makes you decide to cooperate for a long time?"
"Hmm...... It's hard to say, if I say it's a woman's intuition, would you believe it? Ding Siyao said with a smile.
Jia Yi naturally shook her head and said, "Then my intuition tells me that Miss Ding must not have made a decision based on intuition alone. β
The two looked at each other again and smiled.
Jia Yi continued: "But no matter what your reason is, long-term cooperation requires a complete plan, and if you don't mind, I think we can sign relevant terms and deepen some cooperation content." β
"Looks like you're ambitious!" Ding Siyao said, giving a thumbs up to Jiayi.
The two talked for a while, and Jia Yi saw Gao Qu waving to her on the first floor, it was obviously work time now, and his sudden appearance was really surprising.
"Your boyfriend?" Ding Siyao asked.
"Yes." I don't know why, every time I explain my identity and Gao Qu's identity to others, Jia Yi can't help but be shy.
"It's handsome, but I thought you only liked the gentle boy."
"Why?" She was very surprised by Ding Siyao's judgment.
"Hmm...... Gut feeling? It seems that my instincts are quite accurate. Ding Siyao said with a smile, got up again and said, "Since my boyfriend is here, I won't bother you, and ...... Actually, you can just call me Celia. β
Ding Siyao went downstairs after speaking, but let Jia Yi be alone upstairs for a while.
"What's wrong?" Gao Qu came upstairs with a bag in his hand, which was wrapped in a boxy box.
"No...... I just thought that girl was weird. Jia Yi shook his head, looked at Gao Qu again, pointed to the thing in his hand, and said suspiciously: "It can't really be?" β
She really couldn't hold back her excitement in her heart, and her eyes had already shining.
Gao Qu nodded, with a smug face, and said, "I said no, but I am very honest in my heart!" As he spoke, he became even more pretentious, and dangled the bag in his hand from side to side in front of her eyes.
But in a flash, there was a sound inside the bagβa crisp sound like liquids hitting each other.
Both of them were dumbfounded, Gao Qu hurriedly put it down, scratched his head in embarrassment, and laughed hehehe.
Jia Yi "snorted", her stomach was full of complaints, and she turned her head and went downstairs.
"Jiayi, slow down!" Gao Qu shouted after her, but she ignored it and walked faster up the stairs.
"Ahh She accidentally stepped on a step into the air, and when she almost fell, she was stopped by Gao Qu behind her.
"The contents of the bag are much more useful than the bag." Gao Qu said, ignoring the eyes of the people around the store, lightly picked her up, hugged her until downstairs, put her down, and handed her the things in his hand.
Jia Yi muttered and reluctantly opened it, only to find that it was a mini first aid kit containing some band-aids, gauze, and potions, and she was even more puzzled.
"Someone's knee is always injured, and having some medicine in the store always reassures me, I can't stand the injury of people around me anymore......"
Gao Qu's words first made Yu Ran and Su Qian laugh, and they all said sourly: "Yo, the flesh is numb!" β
But they were actually happy for Jia Yi, and she also knew that her heart was already too sweet, but she deliberately didn't show her joy, and after putting away the things, she raised her eyes and looked at Gao Qu, and said, "Why do you have time to come here today?" β
"After the Shanghe project is won, it will be a lot more leisurely!"
"So, the position of vice president is a sure win?"
"I'm not going to compete with Sheng Fuyang for that position."
"Why?"
Gao Qu sighed before he said: "Because the project was obtained through Luo Ting's relationship, of course the company will give me credit after it is negotiated, and being the vice president of the headquarters is just a matter of exploring the bag, but I don't want this." β
"You don't want to get that position because of Luo Ting's relationship?"
Gao Qu didn't deny it, he nodded, and his gaze suddenly moved away.
"But you've always wanted to get the position of Sheng Clan's vice president." Jia Yi couldn't help but have some regrets.
"I wanted to get it before, I wanted to prove my ability, with this title, even if I really went to Anke as a management manager in the end, I wouldn't be too ugly, but if I win this project now by relying on relationships, then this kind of proof is not very meaningful."
"Is it because of Luo Ting?" Jia Yi stared at him.
"No, I just, I just don't want to ......" He tried to deny it, but finally cast himself under Jia Yi's gaze, and said: "Yes, when I knew that the project turned out to be Luo Ting's thread for me, I already wanted to give up, but when I thought of so many colleagues around me, I had to work hard, but I didn't want to be the vice president because of her, that mustard will always be in my heart, she is related to self-esteem for me after all." β
The desire to be remembered is unanimous.
Jia Yi couldn't help but recall what Luo Ting said that day, if Luo Ting knew that Gao Qu gave up his long-awaited position as vice president because of her interference, would she be sad or happy?
"Actually, sometimes I'm still quite jealous of Luo Ting, after all, she hasn't been conquered by you." Jia Yi looked at Gao Qu and said.
Gao Qu kissed her forehead and said, "Are you conquered by me?" β
"Isn't it?"
He shook his head and said with a smile: "When I see your weakness or sore spot, what I want to do is to protect you, this is by no means a conquest, and don't forget, I told you, you have to dare to possess me!" β
Gao Qu actually made a clear difference, before he came to the flower room girl, he first went to the pharmacy near the First Affiliated Hospital of Jiang University to help Jia Yi get medicine. But before leaving, I went to Luo Ting's office as before.
When he went, she was discussing something with her colleagues, and at this time he knew that Luo Ting had been promoted to director, and the whole person was stricter than before, and his aura was more powerful.
She was standing in the middle of a group of doctors discussing the surgical plan: "Hemothoracris is strict, I will make a big incision here, cut the sternum, yes, you can approximate this position, so that you can find the bleeding point...... Also, how about the CT results of the brain, show me...... Okay, I know the situation, and I have to prepare for it, just in case, you go over and prepare for the operation first, and I'll come over in about 30 minutes......" Luo Ting explained a few words, and a group of people dispersed, but out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that there was still a person standing at the door.
"Looks like I'm here at the wrong time?" Gao Qu walked in with a smile.
"You don't seem to have come at the right time, do you?"
"Indeed, but it's not in vain, congratulations, Director Luo!"
Luo Ting raised the corners of her mouth slightly, smiled very perfunctorily, and when her eyebrows turned around, she found that Gao Qu was carrying the medicine in her hand, and her smile immediately retracted.
"She's hurt again?"
Gao Qu shook his head and said, "No, she's fine." β
The two actually regained their tacit understanding because of Liang Jiayi, and what is even more rare is that Gao Qu said so little when he mentioned another woman in front of Luo Ting for the first time, and he was extremely restrained.
Luo Ting naturally knew what the reason for his transformation was, and although he felt uncomfortable, he still smiled and said, "In that case, what is the matter with me?" β
"I took the project on the river, you know?"
"I don't know, I've been too busy lately to worry about other things." She deliberately looked away, flipped through the information in her hand, and subconsciously grabbed her mobile phoneβshe had been on the phone with Lao Wang yesterday.
"Well, I'm here to tell you a word of advice, and thank you by the way!"
"Thank you for making you vice president?" Luo Ting looked at him with a smile.
"No, I've withdrawn from the competition for the position of vice president of the Sheng family, I just thank you for the Sheng family, I know you don't like to be disturbed by other people's compliments, so I had to stop by to thank you."
Luo Ting didn't seem to have much surprise, and said, "This is really something that you Gao Qu would do...... So, do I want to congratulate you? β
"Haha, this can be had, after all, I not only won the project, but probably more things." Gao Qu stared at Luo Ting, he really expected to see a hint in those eyes, because he was ready to say a lot.
But for some reason, as soon as this thought popped up, the medicine in his hand dragged him down heavily, and he took the lead in dodging, looked down at his watch, and excused himself: "Time is running out, you go get busy first, I'm going to go first." β
Luo Ting hadn't come to her senses yet, she was still immersed in his sentence "Maybe there are more things", what more?
Does she include her?
She would have wanted to know.
Looking at Gao Qu's back as he walked out of the door, Luo Ting's whole body suddenly collapsed, and she could only prop herself on the desk, pressing her hand on the nameplate, her sharp edges and corners stinging, she was so sad that she couldn't extricate herself, her face was dull, and her eyes were scattered.
Suddenly, the nurse knocked on the door and came in, startled by her face, as if she had a lot of stuff in her throat, and said, "Luo...... Dr. Locke, the surgery is about to begin......"
Luo Ting let go of his hand as if he was electrocuted, and hurriedly held his forehead to try to hide something, saying, "Oh...... Good. β
Since Gao Qu officially explained to the board of directors that he had withdrawn from the competition for Sheng's vice president, Sheng Fuyang no longer regarded him as a competitor, but he still walked to Gao Qu's office as usual, but this time he said in a more polite tone, "I'm really not used to your sudden withdrawal?" β
Gao Qu was still sitting at the desk, flipping through the information, not raising his eyes to look at him, but saying: "Mr. Sheng got what he wanted, it's always a happy thing, right?" β
"I want to be the vice president, but I don't want me to sit in this position, because you quit me, after all, you won the Shanghe project, this retirement makes me very disgraceful?"
"The Shanghe project has exhausted me, and I'm afraid my ability will stop there. And there are so many other things around me that I need to spend time with. β
"And the beauty." Sheng Fuyang smiled and pointed to the Chanel gift box on his desk.
Gao Qu raised his eyes slightly, looked in the direction of his finger, and smiled a little astringently.
Sheng Fuyang smiled bitterly: "You are still really proud, unlike me, proud in the workplace and frustrated in love." The Yu Ran next to Jia Yi is really the first woman I can't take it, and she even refuses to have dinner alone, do you think she takes herself too seriously? β
Gao Qu got up and patted him on the shoulder, reassuring, "She's just not suitable for you." β
"Humph! Don't think I don't know, look down on people, right, one day I'll prove it to her! β
Gao Qu felt that what he said was very familiar, as if he had been so ambitious and indignant when he was dumped by Luo Ting, of course, he did so, and the result was naturally known.
He could only persuade Sheng Fuyang again: "If you have been thinking about how to conquer her, then you will always be a passive posture of chasing her, it is better to sincerely find a suitable one." β
Sheng Fuyang looked at him with disdain and said, "Tut-tut...... Gao Qu, I said, when did you become so unmotivated? Are you like this because of Liang Jiayi, could it be that she forced you to withdraw from the competition today? β
Gao Qu shook his head with a smile, and was about to walk out of the office, but Sheng Fuyang still shouted unrelentingly: "You said, you are still not a man, you gave up your good future in a few clicks, and you were actually transferred like this, a big man also bought a bag, no, I must stimulate your fighting spirit!" β
As he spoke, suddenly the whole person jumped on Gao Qu like a koala, and the two of them were about to scuffle together, which surprised the colleagues who suddenly walked by, and Gao Qu immediately persuaded Sheng Fuyang to stop: "You are going to be the vice president, you can't be so unpresent." β
Sheng Fuyang pouted and said: "If you really put on a show, I'm afraid these people are not very suitable for it, you think they care about what kind of person you are, just the title of the son of the chairman of the Sheng family is enough for them to be lustful for a while!" He said with a wry smile, but still withdrew his hand and looked out the window at the busy employees.
"Actually, I think that a real man is not who he conquers, but who knows the trade-offs, and has such a sense of responsibility that he is willing to take and bear. You are the vice president, not because you won me to prove yourself, but because you do things well, naturally some people will look at you with admiration. Gao Qu patted him on the shoulder and walked out of the office in style.
He felt that this passage was not for Sheng Fuyang but for himself, perhaps to summarize his previous journey of chasing Luo Ting for so long.
He couldn't help but shake his head and laugh to himself.
If chasing and conquering is a man's instinct, then knowing that making trade-offs and being willing to take on is a sign of his maturity, but fortunately, it is not too late for him to figure out this truth, fortunately, Jia Yi appeared.
He will still have such and such weaknesses, but as long as she is there, he has armor. (To be continued.) )
