Chapter 37: How many reunions and separations, how many helplessness and sighs
Marcus finished his work and found that it was past nine o'clock. Looking out the window at the city lights, he frowned. During this time, no matter how heavy the work was, he had a happy girl in his heart, but today, this girl held back tears in front of him......
I've already contacted Aimee last night to a hospital close to his home, and I was going to pick her up tonight. However, is it really because I am so busy today that I can't remember? After so many years of working in procurement, of course, there are female saleswomen who try to exchange for benefits, and his heart tells him: Aimee is not that kind of girl; His sanity tells him: it's not Aimee who is scary, it's her boss! - If Aimee didn't think like that at all, what does it mean for him to say something like that? If Aimee is really such a person, what does his words mean?
Now is a critical period for Chinese companies to go all out to promote centralized procurement at their headquarters, and they cannot give the truth to others, let alone give opportunities to those who really think like this. He knew that he had not been as calm as he seemed throughout the day, and Aimee's thin but stubborn back when he left had been dangling in front of his eyes. He was about to pick up his phone, only to find that the phone on his desk was flashing with a message reminder. He could hear Aimee's Lin Laiquan rhyme that was as light as a drizzle and as soft as a light veil:
"Marcus, I don't know if this is the first message you've received since you enabled voicemail. Whether it is or not, I want to tell you...... Well...... In the new office, enjoy work, and have fun every day! Yes, happy every day, that's my blessing! β
He listened to it over and over again...... When she's not working, she's a soft and thin little girl, and people can't help but want to hug and guard it tightly; When she was working, she seemed to immediately put on armor, and she was bold and heroic, and became an awe-inspiring female warrior. He wanted to tell her: Let's carry this time together first, after thinking about it, and feeling that she, who is so rational at work, must be able to understand and understand his hard work. However, she is so badly injured, how can she do it without treatment?
He got up and left the office and walked to the Guojian Hotel. Definitely not showing up at the hotel, he dialed her number:
βHelloοΌβ As soon as he spoke, her tone was unexpected:
"Thank you for calling." Also polite.
"Is there a way for you to get to the parking lot next to your hotel? I'll pick you up there and take you to the hospital. He blamed himself: I should have gone up to pick her up!
"I'm in Hangzhou, and I won't be back in Shanghai until tomorrow evening at the earliest."
What the?? In Hangzhou??
"What are you doing in Hangzhou? Oh yes, didn't your nasty boss let you go? "Isn't it human! - This is indeed the most apt evaluation!
"Marcus, I know you care about me. Don't worry, I'll arrange it. I'm talking to the dealer right now and I'll get back to you later. She hung up the phone.
Marcus was distraught: he sympathized with Aimee, a little girl so thin who was being driven around by her impersonal boss; He felt sorry for Aimee - he was covered in bruises, but he actually rushed to Hangzhou after a meeting with me in one day, and he was still seeing customers so late; He also doesn't understand Aimee - can't he make such unreasonable demands on the boss, say no? Why did she choose work to come first between health and work? Even her own health can be ignored, so how important can love be in her heart?
Marcus slowly walked back to the Lomei parking lot and finally gave himself a solution: during this time, he tried not to contact her and let her make her own decision. She doesn't need me, I don't care about her, then I force myself to let go; She really needs me and wants me to stay with her, so I'll rush over and hug her!
After putting down the phone with Marcus, Aimee looked at Jin Yue, who was at a loss: "Manager Jin, think about it carefully, which is more difficult between your current situation and when you first started to do Lipton?" β
Jin Yue pondered for a moment and replied: "At that time, it was even more difficult, except for a body of courage, there was nothing. Now that I go out, everyone will give me a little bit of thin noodles, and the resources I can mobilize are many times stronger than before. β
"That's right, although you are still Jin Yue, although you are also the boss, but today you are so much stronger than you back then, you can win the battle at that time, why are you lying down now?" This is indeed something that Jin Yue has never asked himself.
"Take stock of the resources you can mobilize right now and see what you can do to monetize them. Lipton didn't push you to the extreme, asking you to pay off all your debts at once. Half and half policies are also leaving a buffer space for you. Wouldn't it be much more efficient if you continued to put enough effort back into the Lipton business as you did before? β
"Of course, since your cultural industry park has started, you can't give up, and it's always good to have your own land. Lipton is a fast-turnover consumer goods, the industrial park is a long-term investment, and the mode of operation is completely different, do you want to do a good job in business planning, reasonable allocation of time, energy, resources for you and the company? β
Ning Qian's words woke up Jin Yue: Indeed, since the industrial park, almost all of his personal thoughts have been in this area, and Lipton's business is handed over to his subordinates to do, although it is stable, but it is indeed no growth, if he is really as attentive as before, the pattern may be completely different.
"Miss Ning, your words really hit me! You made me think about it. β
Jin Yue sent Ning Qian to the hotel lobby, saying that he would think seriously when he went back, and he would definitely give Miss Ning an explanation.
After Ning Qian washed up, she turned on the computer and began to read the resumes of candidates for the Shanghai office sent by Sally. The phone rang, and it was Jin Yue.
"Miss Ning, I'm sorry to bother you so late. I'll be in your hotel lobby in ten minutes, I'll send you a document and I'll go. β
Sure enough, the dusty Jin Yue handed Ning Qian a big envelope: "I know that Miss Ning has always been very tight in time, and she will definitely leave Hangzhou tomorrow, I will give you this overnight, just to give you a serious explanation." Hurry up and rest! In order not to delay Ning Qian's rest, when he said this, he was on his side, and after speaking, he turned his head and left.
Ning Qian, who returned to the room, opened the envelope, and it was a letter, a repayment plan, and a check. Jin Yue's vigorous handwriting is just like his person. He reflected on the fact that in the past year, because of Lipton's success, there were more and more temptations and choices, and he gradually thought that he was omnipotent and blindly expanded. When the mountains and rivers are exhausted, they give up on themselves. In fact, these days, he is in extreme anxiety, hiding at the construction site of the suburban cultural industry park, thinking that he has no way out.
Ning Qian, who was covered in bruises, made a special trip to talk to him, which reminded him of himself who was even more helpless but energetic. He has to take a good inventory of resources and keep Lipton! The repayment plan was based on his sales estimates after he returned to the Lipton business with all his might, and he aimed to pay off all the arrears within eight months. The 300,000 yuan on the check is the money that his personal account was originally going to give to his father-in-law for medical treatment, and it will definitely be transferred to the company's account tomorrow.
Jin Yue and the burden on his shoulders seemed to be all packed in this big envelope, heavy. Ning Qian faced this check that was pulled out of the life-saving money, and asked herself if she was too ruthless and respected Jin Yue more.
After all, he had a check of 300,000 yuan on his body, and Ning Qian hurriedly put the big envelope in his backpack and pressed the backpack behind the pillow, so that even if someone moved the backpack, he could sense it. After some placement from various angles, she was finally able to lie down.
Marcus, he still cares about me, he even thinks about taking me to the hospital. However, Lu said that Marcus thought I was deliberately approaching him in order to sell him something? Does he think I'm such an unbearable saleswoman? Will he really look down on me, like Gupta and Lu?
Even if he doesn't see it that way, he believes me, and now such an awkward relationship can neither fully negotiate nor fall in love. Why should I be troubled by him?
In the end, she gave herself a solution: during this time, she tried not to contact him and let him make his own decisions. He doesn't need me, I don't care about him, then I force myself to let go; He really needs me and wants me to stay by his side, so I will rush over and lie in his arms!
She opened the extension in his office and listened to his warm voice over and over again......
In a trance, I actually felt that someone was using a key to open this door! Ning Qian woke up completely all of a sudden!
The round princess bed she slept on was facing the door of the room, what should I do?
She sat straight against the head of the bed, and with an idea, she turned all the long hair behind her back and covered her face. The door opened, and she heard someone scream in panic and slammed the door. She didn't care about the injuries all over her body, ran to the door, quickly turned on all the lights, locked all the open and hidden locks, and pulled two chairs to block the door. She hurriedly called the hotel front desk and asked if there was a waiter who had taken the key to enter the guest's room, and the front desk replied in an unquestioning and firm tone: "Absolutely impossible!" β
"Can you get someone to come up and check it out?" Ning Qian was still unwilling.
"Miss, are you having a nightmare?" The front desk still doesn't plan to deal with it.
Where do you dare to sleep? I could only lean on the head of the bed, press the pillow, and stare at the door, and stay up until dawn.
When she washed up in the morning, she deliberately put her hair down and hid it in her coat, which looked like a short hair at a glance. After packing her luggage, she closed the door, deliberately went around to the linen room on the floor, and asked the waiter there, "Did you hear anything last night?" The waiter's face was pale, and he waved his hand again and again: "No, no." β
She came to the downstairs lobby of the hotel and finished the checkout, she was still a little unwilling, and reported to the lobby manager that someone went to open her room door last night.
The lobby manager's face turned pale all of a sudden: "Then where were you then?" What do you see? β
Ning Qian sensed that there was obviously something wrong with the lobby manager's expression.
"I haven't slept yet, I'm working at my desk in front of the computer. I heard a knock at the door. β
"Aren't you in bed?" The lobby manager's eyes widened.
"No, I didn't sleep, how could I be in bed." Ning Qian's innocent face.
"Hurry up, call that guy over and ask again." The lobby manager beckoned.
The waiter in the linen room appeared with a look of horror.
"Tell me, what did you see last night?" The lobby manager asked.
"As soon as I opened the door, I saw a female ghost on the bed, with long hair, her back to me, and no legs...... "She was about to cry......
You're the female ghost! Who told you to scare me!
"Really? You say there's a ghost in my room? Ning Qian looked shocked.
"Oops, I'm scared to death, hurry up and go!"
Ning Qian dragged the box and fled.
In fact, she already understood: someone did open her room door last night, and the hotel also knew about it. She was glad that when she first arrived yesterday, she was familiar with the whole strangely decorated hotel, and if she really wanted to escape, she still knew where there were people, where there were no people, where there were toilets, and where there were exits. Now that this anomaly has occurred, since the people in the hotel are hugging together and refusing to deal with it, there must be an indescribable cattiness. When you go out, it's important to save your life, don't fight for reason, hurry up, but before leaving, you still have to bury a small mine in the heart.
The lobby manager and waiter of the hotel know that because every room here is different, there must be waiters who secretly run to the room at night to spend the night out of curiosity. This time, the waiter actually saw a ghost on the bed, but the guests in the room couldn't see it! It's horrible! Soon, word spread that the rooms here couldn't be messed up and scared to death......
Ning Qian came to Zhejiang Trade, stared at the first repayment remittance of Zhejiang Trade, and repeatedly explained to Bao Xiaolu that he must pay and purchase goods on time according to the plan, and then stepped on the train back to Shanghai.
Since I have come out of the city, and I have even been to Hangzhou so far, then when I return to Shanghai, I should go back to the office first.
When a room of people in the office saw Ning Qian, they rushed up, some took the luggage in her hand, some supported her, and some poured her Lipton black tea.
Li Anran said: "Originally, we should have left, but we should still do a good handover, and today we will come back together and try to sort out the customer information and office, so that the people who take over in the future can know the ins and outs." Ning Qian's tears fell again, this time, not intentionally showing weakness, but sincerely moved.
"We won't come again tomorrow, Ning Qian, thank you!" One by one, they came over to thank her. She cried profusely.
"If you're like that, I'll feel like I'm useless." She wiped her tears and smiled again.
"Ning Qian, we'll send you back to the hotel first. We don't want to leave you here alone. When Roger admitted to say this, he knew that from now on, the days when Ning Qian stayed in the office alone would not be less, at least, before recruiting new people.
