Chapter forty-three? Utilization value
Huang Xiaoya walked into Shangri-La, and her cousin was already sitting in the hall waiting for him. With her memory, Huang Xiaoya quickly found out who her cousin was from a few people.
A well-dressed and athletic man was sitting with his back to Huang Xiaoya. From time to time, he turned his head to glance in the direction of the entrance, and was wearing a thin gray jacket. Plenty of heating in the hotel.
Huang Xiaoya walked towards him slowly, she saw that it should be his cousin, but she didn't dare to be presumptuous. When she was a meter away from him, she dialed his mobile phone. Sure enough, when I saw the mobile phone in front of him, I remembered that it was Shuimu Nianhua's "Life with You". She hung up and stepped forward.
"Cousin." Her cry was gentle and sweet.
"Cousin, you've changed a lot." The young man stood up.
"Aren't you too?" Huang Xiaoya stood in front of her cousin. looked carefully at this cousin, who had been studying at Yale University in the United States.
"Sit down. What do you want to drink? We'll have dinner here in the evening. ”
"I'll do whatever I want."
"Hasn't my uncle seen you in a long time?"
"Well, yes."
"These adults patronize their careers and often ignore us." Huang Xiaoya's cousin sighed, and the waiter had already stepped forward following his gesture.
"I want a latte." Huang Xiaoya commanded.
"Take Ben's dinner menu." Huang Xiaoya's cousin waited for Huang Xiaoya to order well, and added.
"Sir, we have a cafeteria, both Chinese and Western food, and a separate Chinese restaurant and a Western restaurant." The waiter explained to them.
"Well, let's finish our tea before we go upstairs." Huang Xiaoya gestured to her cousin.
"Okay." Huang Xiaoya's cousin agreed, and the waiter left.
"Will you be working in the U.S. in the future?" Huang Xiaoya looked at a pair of small eyes in front of her, her hair was combed in the middle very casually, and the skin on her face had a few shallow pits, but between her eyebrows was a handsome young man asking questions.
"It's already working, and it's not sent to the country to do some company things, it's a business trip." The young man looked at this cousin who had been teasing her as a child and crying at every turn. Every time he was scolded by his grandmother because of this. Now that it is so standard, there is a charm that attracts the opposite sex.
"What company do you work for?"
"Citibank."
"Oh, amazing, it's really not the pride of the family." Huang Xiaoya smiled complimentarily, and the waiter served the table with a cup of latte.
"What do you do now? I heard my uncle say that you seem to work in a financial company? ”
"Not counting now, I'm partnering with a few people to open a law firm." Huang Xiaoya regretted it after speaking, once her cousin and father said no, it would be exposed?
"Don't tell my parents just yet, I'm just starting to do it." She hurriedly added this sentence.
"Start your own business, what about your capital?"
"I don't need to invest capital, I will enter dry shares." Huang Xiaoya is wary of herself, but don't say that she owes money to start a business, her parents know that they must stop it.
"That's not a risk." Cousin Huang Xiaoya didn't ask anymore.
After the two finally ate the buffet, they chatted about their college life and reminisced about their childhood together. Before I knew it, the dinner of more than two hours was over. Huang Xiaoya said goodbye to her cousin and went home.
It was close to 10 p.m. when I got home. Tan Xiaojuan had just entered the house, was cooking instant noodles to eat, and asked Huang Xiaoya if she wanted to have a bowl too. Huang Xiaoya waved her hand.
"I'm so exhausted that there's no room for my stomach to go down."
"You're out eating with those friends again?"
"No, I went to eat with our family's cow cousin. He stopped by to see me on a business trip. After Huang Xiaoya finished speaking, she took her pajamas and the like, and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower.
Huang Xiaoya took a shower, and the faucet above her head continued to spray, like a continuous drizzle evenly splashing on Huang Xiaoya's face and body. Gently caressing her skin. What came to Huang Xiaoya's mind at this time was the moment when she signed the IOU, and the expressions of Zhang Jixiang, Mo Xiaoying, and Liu Yami's faces before and after her signature were hovering in her mind like a movie, lingering.
She realized that she was a little bold and signed an IOU without telling her parents. But soon she comforted herself that if she made money, wouldn't everything be solved? At this moment, she became happy again, and began to fantasize about the prosperity of the law firm, imagining that she had already paid off her debts and was interviewed by a TV reporter on the spot. Thinking about it, he smirked. Dry yourself, change into pajamas and walk out of the bathroom.
She watched Tan Xiaojuan enjoying instant noodles with relish, and sighed at her endless work. I think of the hotel where my cousin stayed on a business trip and the food he used. Comparing the gap between the two is more firm in their own direction.
"How's the company doing?"
"Now that we are doing integration, it is said that Huang Donghai has found a law firm, and Mr. Xia is inquiring about which law firm took the case." Tan Xiaojuan said as she pulled noodles into her mouth. Huang Xiaoya was stunned, she was wondering whether to tell Tan Xiaojuan. Don't talk about it, sooner or later this matter will be exposed, and if you say it, you seem to feel that something is inappropriate.
"If Xia Huaqiang knows which law firm will take this case, what will he do?" Huang Xiaoya asked deliberately.
"Of course, I want them not to take it, and I will pay them another amount." Tan Xiaojuan said.
"It's unlikely, law firms have their own rules of conduct. It is impossible for Xia Huaqiang to gag all the lawyers with money. Huang Xiaoya expressed disdain when she heard this routine.
"Xia Huaqiang just wants to delay for a while, because the company has recently been integrated, and it is possible to sell the company. If there is a lawsuit, it will be a bit troublesome and affect the decision of the acquirer. Tan Xiaojuan didn't think too much, she wouldn't have thought that Huang Xiaoya's company would take Huang Donghai's case at all.
Tan Xiaojuan's words about leaking the company's situation made Huang Xiaoya hesitate, and she wanted to tell Tan Xiaojuan that Zhang Jixiang was taking Huang Donghai's case. After thinking about it for a while, she finally cleverly made an excuse for herself.
"Really? The Huang Donghai incident had a big impact. Recently, Liu Yami shouted that there was a case of an executive of a financial company, and I don't know if it would be Huang Donghai. ”
"Oh, then you can inquire, if it's Huang Donghai, it would be even better. In fact, Xia Huaqiang recently sent someone to follow Huang Donghai's lover, do you remember? is the one named Yin Ya who fought with Huang Donghai's wife. When Tan Xiaojuan finished saying this, a bowl of instant noodles swallowed completely into her stomach.
"Remember, that woman still works for the company?" Huang Xiaoya's face appeared in front of her, fleeting.
"Not yet, Mr. Xia wants to keep her, the day before yesterday, Xuanmei was still suggesting that Mr. Xia fire her, but Mr. Xia just said that it was not time yet." Tan Xiaojuan packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went into the kitchen as she spoke.
Huang Xiaoya began to be silent, she knew that she would definitely tell Zhang Jixiang about the situation. It's just that she thinks it's not worth it for Huang Donghai and his girlfriend.
In fact, life is worthwhile and worthless, most of the time it is to reflect the value in using and being used.
