Chapter 40: Feelings, can you tell the difference: whether it is strong or reluctant
Why did Lipton send a little girl to Shanghai to deal with such a big matter?
"I'm curious, too." Qi Hong also pricked up his ears and was full of interest.
"As for me, I'm not very suitable for sales, damn it, I don't know how to drink! Our boss doesn't want to keep a waste person. Our boss, Brother Hong knows, he is a foreigner, he said to me: I have heard, Shanghainese are the most well-behaved and gentle, and they never force people to drink, so you can go to Shanghai! β
"It's also a coincidence, I've been in Shanghai for so long, and I haven't been forced to drink. Shanghai people really, I don't have to say, they are all Sven people and people who talk about rules! Ning Qian gave a thumbs up again and again.
The four men, even Qi Hong, didn't know whether to continue to force her to drink.
"Xiao Ning, you are a cheerful little girl, and I won't go around the bush with you. I'm looking for you today, that is, you Brother Hong and I, I really think you are a talent, and I want you to join us, you can make a statement! β
"Brother Hong, join you? I'm very interested in changing jobs, you know, our boss is actually very fierce, my legs are broken, and he forced me to go on a business trip, in fact, I also want to find a place to develop well. Ning Qian spoke very angrily and emotionally.
"Brother Hong, isn't it unrighteous for you to say that they are like this? Where is our Director Chen and our Brother Hong so reasonable and take care of their subordinates. When Ning Qian said this, she was complaining from the bottom of her heart. She thought to herself, anyway, she might not be able to meet them in the future, so it would be good to take the opportunity to vent her resentment with them.
"Brother Hong, I want to know, when I join you, where is the company's headquarters, what is the main business, which position am I set in, what level, what is the salary, and what is the promotion channel?" The four people sitting next to him were stunned: "Why didn't we ask the question she asked when we joined?" When Brother Hong heard this, he was actually a little angry: "We are not a foreign company here, we don't use that method, we have our own method." β
Brother Hong was patient and introduced their business scope to Ning Qian. Ning Qian understood it: if what he said was not a joke, it was basically the plot of a Hong Kong film. The four people next to him also introduced Brother Hong's family background vividly, it turned out that he was still an authentic heir, and their family was in the thirties, so their business was famous in Shanghai and crisscrossed the rivers and lakes.
Ning Qian listened to them for so long, thinking that it was just that the men who love to drink were bragging, so I started to coax along with the words, but the more I listened, the more exaggerated I became, and I simply opened up and cooperated with the nonsense:
"Brother Hong, I am very grateful that you value me so much. What do you admire about me? "It's better to open the skylight and say something.
"I think you're not just different from other girls, but you're better than a lot of men. There are brains and guts. You're so much more brainy than that side connection! He asked people to drive into you, and I beat him later, and I didn't use my brains to do things. β
"Don't look down on our industry, our industry also needs talents like you!" Brother Hong's tone was really full of sincerity.
Ning Qian felt her heart beating faster and her whole body was hot - it turned out that what she encountered was not an unintentional accident, but an intentional harm! Oh my God, they really do everything! So what should I do? Can I get out of this tiger's mouth tonight??
She knew that if she didn't handle it well, she wouldn't have an accident instead of listening to a story. She believed that at this moment, Qi Hong could call her here to eat, showing weakness and crying these tricks were useless to him, he was in the dark before, and his understanding of her had already made him judge that this was not a timid little girl, so he could only really let him let go of himself convincingly.
"Brother Hong, I am really touched that you can look up to me so much. I grew up as a good child and a good student, and my parents expected me to have a stable job, marry an honest man in the future, and live an ordinary life. I never expected myself to do anything big and get ahead. Especially when I was hit like this recently, and I was scolded by my boss so much, I had a lot of doubts about myself: Is this the life I want? β
"Brother Hong, I'm not a person who wants to take the initiative to do big things, just a person who wants to do things well. My biggest wish now is to return to my parents as soon as possible, marry myself, and raise my children. The talent that Brother Hong needs must not be an unmotivated and enterprising woman like me. You should find more ambitious men to complement you. β
"Alas, however, Xiao Ning, you are also right, I was very optimistic about Chen Yangqing at the beginning, but women are soft-hearted, she often can't do it, it is better to be reassured by that idiot Bian Liancheng. He's stupid, but whatever I want him to do, he'll do it, without conditions; Chen Yangqing is smart, but when she will listen to me and when she won't listen to me, it's really uncertain. Qi Hong was suddenly very touched.
Ning Qian saw that Qi Hong no longer had such a strong desire to catch her, so she began to talk about the limitations of women in the workplace, and Qi Hong nodded again and again, and felt that women should not be considered in their organization.
Ning Qian's little mouth is very sweet, brother before and after, what she said, you say it is very mature, she will suddenly be very innocent of a very young girl; Let's call it naΓ―ve, and from time to time a particularly profound life truth emerges. After a meal, Qi Hong specially gave Ning Qian a very special business card, with three different mobile phone numbers on it. "If you have something you can't do in Shanghai in the future, you can call me. I think you're a sister! Brother Hong also specially sent someone to escort Ning Qian back to the hotel.
Early the next morning, Ning Qian received a notice from Mr. Lei: the company had decided to officially hire Wilson as the manager of the Shanghai office. Ning Qian and Wilson made an appointment to meet at the office, and the company officially notified the other five employees to report the next day. Wilson also recruited his former right-hand man, Jay. Ning Qian conducted intensive sales training for the sales staff of the office and the two dealers in Shanghai, and deployed a huge positional battle with Wilson in the Shanghai market. A month later, Shanghai officially became the first in the country.
And in the past month, Ning Qian went to Shengbai four times. For so long, Aimee and Marcus haven't been in contact with each other in a non-working setting. In the four workplace meetings, when the four eyes met, they were very businesslike and professionally polite.
Today, when she carried a large bag of two flavors of samples, equipment, and even special water, and tested it with the Sabatech and purchasing team, Tim and Mary were finally moved by this persistent girl. Tim and Aimee agreed on the spot to visit the Lipton factory in Guangzhou. After finally agreeing a date with Tim to visit, it was already past the end of work. Marcus left for the second half of the taste test because he had another meeting.
After the meeting, Daisy pulled Aimee aside and asked with a complicated expression, "Do you know that Marcus's ex-girlfriend came to Shanghai to look for him?" β
Aimee was shocked to hear Marcus mention his ex-girlfriend, they had been dating for nearly a decade, Marcus had proposed marriage several times, and the other party was a dance teacher in Hong Kong who had been reluctant to marry for professional reasons. Marcus transferred to Shanghai this time to work, and talked to his ex-girlfriend many times, hoping that she could come to Shanghai with him, but the other party resolutely refused, and when Marcus and Aimee first met, they had just broken up for more than a month.
Now that my ex-girlfriend has been found again, is it time to rebuild? So, that's why Marcus didn't bother with me? Although during this time, she has been reminding herself to fight and not to beg Marcus, but when she heard that his ex-girlfriend came to Shanghai to find him, she knew that it was over, and it was completely out of play. Her legs are weak, and she could still carry twenty or thirty pounds of things before, why can't she even stand now? Daisy hurriedly helped her and said thoughtfully, "Otherwise, you can just put all these things here with me, it's too heavy for you to bring back." I'll take it out when I want to use it later. Aimee nodded.
Aimee realizes that this shouldn't be something Daisy needs to tell her, so she asks Daisy, "Thank you for letting me know." Did you tell me that I thought Marcus and I were friends? She felt like she was on the verge of crying when she asked.
"No, I think Marcus should like you very much, so he told you, he looks at you differently. Many times, I have seen him late and still in the office listening to your messages. β
Aimee forced her tears to leave Luo Mei. She felt hollowed out of her heart.
Marcus and I, are we going to break off like this?
She thought about it and felt that she should be a frank person, and whether she succeeded or not, she should have a clear word. So, she took a taxi and went to the downstairs of Marcus's apartment.
She didn't know if he was off work or if he came back, but she said silently in her heart: "Leave it to fate, see if God will arrange for us to meet today." β
God was merciful, and really arranged for them to meet, and it was three people at the same time:
Marcus parked his car and walked towards the apartment, his ex-girlfriend who was waiting in the lobby saw him from a distance, and Aimee, who was waiting at the entrance of the alley, walked towards Marcus.
Aimee knew she must be Marcus's ex-girlfriend - a dance teacher with an extraordinary temperament, light, tall, radiant, with whom Marcus had been in a relationship for so many years, and who had been proposed to by Marcus so many times. I, I can't even fight with Luo Xia, why should I fight with her now? She turned silently, only to be stopped by Marcus.
Marcus turned back to his ex-girlfriend and said a few words, and she obediently went back to the lobby to wait.
Marcus walked up slowly, tears welling up in his eyes, "You're finally here?" Are you here for me? β
"Yes, I'm here for you, I can't bear you, I miss you very much......" Aimee threw herself into Marcus's arms and hugged him tightly and cried.
But she didn't, but straightened her back.
"I wanted to come and see you, to tell you: I didn't take advantage of you, I didn't approach you to sell you anything." She felt that her tone was very backbone.
"I know, I never doubted you." Marcus's tone was very gentle, and he saw how caring, professional, and tenacious she was.
"There is no doubt, then why haven't you contacted me for so long?" She was in tears, but she looked stubborn with her head held high.
"I heard that your ex-girlfriend is coming to you, will you and her reconcile?" Aimee's voice was soft, but she asked very directly, and she didn't want to pull and pull and hide.
"I said to you: I have been with her for so many years, and I am very miserable when I am separated from her. It wasn't until I met you that I knew that feelings can be replaced and pain can be repaired. Marcus was also very direct.
"And now? When you see her again? Aimee asked.
"She has been here for two days, and she has come to me at the company and to the apartment, saying that she thought she could live without me, but after trying it, she found that it didn't work. She said she would like to marry me. β
"Oh, do you still feel when you see her?" Aimee looked into Marcus' eyes.
"I thought I had let go of her, and I had been trying to avoid seeing her for the past two days, but I found that I still cared about her, and I couldn't bear to leave her alone, she has become my relative."
"Aimee, I find that the person I am more concerned about is you. But you don't need me, you don't need me for so long. Marcus was disappointed.
"Obviously you don't need me, why have you ignored me for so long? You know how much I think you can say to me, do you believe me? Do you know how much I need your encouragement and hugs? Ning Qian cried to Marcus in her heart, but said on her lips:
"Well, Marcus, thank you for your candor. I know. Bless you all! Aimee walked away without looking back, although she was still limping, but her pace was not the slightest hesitation.
Tears continued to slide down one after another, and she wiped them again and again with the back of her scarred hand, and behind her, there was Marcus, who was staring affectionately, waiting for her to turn around, but no, she disappeared so firmly at the end of the alley......
I'm not a good person to fall in love at all, and the people I like don't like me at all...... No boy will like me...... I'm not as good as Luo Xia, I'm not as good as the dance teacher...... I'm no one like ...... I was skinny, small, stupid, and breastless...... I was also a salesman who was scolded by the boss for running errands in the company, was driven to sell things when he wanted to do marketing, and was sneered at by them...... No performance is despised, and there is performance that is despised...... I didn't use anything...... I'm the most unlikable person in the world...... Ning Qian, who was in tears and despaired, felt that her world had completely collapsed......
In the taxi, a melody poured like water:
You're always too soft-hearted and too soft-hearted
Alone wept until dawn
You love that person without complaint
I know you're not that strong at all
You're always too soft-hearted and too soft-hearted
Take all the problems on your own
It's always easy to fall in love, and it's too hard to get along
If it's not yours, don't force it
