Chapter 11 The Road Is Narrow
Meng Zhen packed up the product information, put the relevant information in front of each guest who participated in the product briefing, looked at the two people who followed Mr. Chen and Manager Fang and walked into the conference room, and a sentence came to mind: "The road is narrow!" ”
Come on, this is too bloody, my God, don't bring such a playful person.
The so-called foreign capital representative who came in was actually her first boyfriend Liu Dong, and the rival in love back then, the fox spirit in Chen Xue's mouth - Hu Jingjing!
Meng Zhen was inexplicably sad when she first heard their news in the morning, after all, the lost relationship was her first love, and Liu Dong was the only man she had really loved so far.
"Please, President Hu, Minister Liu, please take a seat!"
Mr. Chen's fat face is full of smiles, and he has been in a state of excitement since he got into a relationship with South Korea's Dongjing Company. Now the economy is sluggish, and the competition for similar goods in the domestic market is fierce, and the sales volume is declining month by month. The company planned to develop new products, but was short of funds. When he was at a loss, Dongjing's investment intention was not conducive to sending charcoal in the snow. Although after the joint venture, the company itself only accounts for 51% of the shares, but he is still a major shareholder, which is better than the company's eventual collapse! So when the president and minister of Dongjing Company arrived, he did his best to entertain them, the two sides have reached a preliminary cooperation intention, and now wait for the new product briefing to determine the details of the cooperation can be signed.
Hu Jingjing and Liu Dong sat on the VIP seat, looked at the venue, and when their eyes swept over Meng Zhen, who was depressed, both of them were visibly stunned. Hu Jingjing paused for a moment, and then smiled weirdly, where do you not meet in life, I didn't expect to see the woman who was defeated by her after N years, hehe, it's so interesting, seeing Meng Zhen, she is more willing to cooperate with Dongfang Company. And when Liu Dong saw Meng Zhen, his eyes flashed with complicated light, Meng Zhen was still so quiet and gentle, he broke up with her ruthlessly for the sake of his future, and over the years, when he dreamed back at midnight, he would remember the good times when the two of them were together.
Mr. Chen felt that the two distinguished guests seemed to be looking at Meng Zhen, and the air in the venue became a little solidified, so he smiled and said, "What, President Hu knows Assistant Meng?" ”
Meng Zhen is a veteran employee of the company, and he, the boss, has awarded her the "Best Employee Award" at the company's annual meeting many times. Originally, she was on annual leave, but out of the importance of this product briefing, he still asked Meng Zhen to organize it.
"yes, we're old friends, right, Adong?!"
"That's right, we've known each other for a long time," Liu Dong's tone was full of nostalgia, "Meng Zhen, it's okay all these years!" ”
"It's good," Meng Zhen found that when she really faced them, she could actually treat them calmly, it seemed that time could really heal the wounds, she replied lightly.
In the following time, Manager Fang began to make a brief introduction to the sales work he was responsible for, although the recent performance was not good, but the overall profit was still profitable. Then the manager of the product development department made a description of the new product, and Hu Jingjing obviously paid more attention to Meng Zhen than the introduction of Dongfang Company.
After the briefing, the two sides reached a preliminary agreement, and the contract could be formally signed after the Korean lawyer completed the legal procedure. Mr. Chen saw that the meeting was very successful, so he said that he would go to the hotel to celebrate and entertain their distinguished guests by the way.
So, after the meeting, the group headed to the Eiffel Hotel in Spring City. Meng Zhen wants to leave when it's over, she still has to send fruit to Uncle Meng's house, and she has made an appointment to meet at half past seven in the evening, if she participates in the dinner again, I'm afraid she won't have time to go. And with these two people in the face, she wasn't sure she still had the appetite to eat.
But when she said to the other manager that she wanted to go back, Hu Jingjing, who had already walked out of the conference room, suddenly turned around and said with a smile: "Oh, Meng Zhen, we haven't seen each other for so many years, so it's easy to have a meal together, so don't spoil everyone's fun." Besides, Liu Dong and I both want to have a good chat with you, right, Adong! ”
Liu Dong also turned around and nodded, "Yes, Meng Zhen will go together!" ”
As soon as Mr. Chen saw this situation, he demanded under the principle of not offending the God of Wealth: "Assistant Meng, let's go together." Give a call to a friend you have made an appointment, it just so happens that the company hasn't organized a dinner party for a long time, so let's go and relax together. ”
Meng Zhen saw that the boss said so, so he agreed, and called Uncle Meng in Manager Fang's car, apologized for explaining his situation, and made an appointment to see them the day after tomorrow.
In the hotel, everyone began to be polite to each other, but after three rounds of drinking, they all let go and began to talk lively, from international events to national events, and even social anecdotes, Internet jokes, it seems that everyone has the essence of gossip. Meng Zhen was eating with her head bored, alas, she was stared at by that vixen, she really didn't know how to eat. I prayed in my heart that this boring dinner would end soon.
But for a non-believer's prayer, God doesn't seem to be as she wishes.
"Meng Zhen, to be honest, do you hate me?"
Hu Jingjing seemed to have drunk too much, and asked her drunkly. Before the dinner began, Hu Jingjing declined Mr. Chen's suggestion to let her sit in the main seat, but gathered next to Meng Zhen's seat, and said that she wanted to have a good chat with her.
"What?" Meng Zhen was praying in his heart, and when he heard her question, he thought for a while: "Don't hate, more precisely, I should thank you for taking him away before I was completely caught in it!" ”
"Hypocrisy, you're so hypocritical, I've heard that you haven't been friends for two years since we left, and you're still floating alone, right? There's a word on the Internet that describes you older single women, what's the name, by the way, it's called 'leftover women', right, leftover women?! ”
"It's true that I'm sad, but after a long time, no matter how deep the feelings are, I will fade away, and when he says that you have the ability to create space for him to display his talents, I know that we are finished, because I can only be a good wife and mother, and I can't give him the capital to start a business. I don't fall in love, not because of how much I love, but because I don't fall in love, after all, I still have more requirements for my other half. Otherwise, you wouldn't have coveted the man I chose so much, and made such a heavy promise in order to get him to leave me. ”
Meng Zhen may be soft-tempered, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't have a temper, and in the face of Hu Jingjing's provocation, she can't be calm. Leftover women? What's wrong with the leftover girl, she is living a full life now and is very happy.
"Hehe, coveting?! Yes, I don't like him, didn't he say he loves you, I want to see how much he loves you. Guess how much his love is worth, haha, a million, his love is worth a million! ”
She didn't ignore the joy that flashed in Liu Dong's eyes when he saw Meng Zhen, hmph, he has been married to him for six years, his daughters are four years old, and he still has a crush on his ex-girlfriend.
Meng Zhen suppressed the anger in his heart, and forcibly did not smash the wine glass in his hand into Hu Jingjing's face.
Their voices were very small, and the other people on the table were staggered, and they didn't pay attention, only Liu Dong looked at Hu Jingjing's drunken state and was a little worried. Having lived with her for so long, he knew this woman too well, she looked harmless on the surface, and her heart was full of cruelty. blamed myself for being too eager to succeed back then, and as a result, I took a lifetime of happiness.
"Apologies!"
Meng Zhen stood up suddenly, pointed at Hu Jingjing, and asked her in a rare stern tone. Just now Hu Jingjing saw how she provoked, Meng Zhen was not angry, so she began to talk about it, and finally talked about her mother who died early. Everyone has reverse scales, and Meng Zhen also has them, that is, you can say that she can do anything, but you must not criticize her mother. Hearing Hu Jingjing talk about her mother's death almost mockingly, she couldn't bear it.
"Apologies, why? Ah, am I wrong, didn't your mother have a relapse of neurosis and was hit by a car on the road by herself? The whole mall county is a household name, why do I apologize! ”
The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly cooled down, and everyone watched the development of the situation in a daze.
Meng Zhen didn't say anything, and directly poured the wine glass in his hand on Hu Jingjing's face, "The dead are the greatest, no matter how my mother died, you will never be allowed to talk about her so disrespectfully." Hu Jingjing, I say it again, apologize to my mother! ”
"Meng Zhen, you're crazy!" Mr. Chen looked at Hu Jingjing, who was drinking, and said that he wanted something bad, so he shouted to Meng Zhen.
Hu Jingjing was also splashed, but she didn't expect Meng Zhen to be mad, so she stood up and wanted to grab her: "I won't apologize, my surname is Meng, I just can't see that you don't care about anything!" ”
Liu Dong rushed over and hugged Hu Jingjing and persuaded: "Jingjing, you're drunk, let's go back." Meng Zhen, I apologize to your mother on her behalf, I'm sorry, she drank too much! ”
"You let go of me, who drank too much, Liu Dong, I can already see that you still have no feelings for Meng Zhen, right!? You say, isn't it? ”
Hu Jingjing struggled and pushed Liu Dong again.
"Smack!" Meng Zhen mercilessly slapped Hu Jingjing, who rushed in front of him, "This is for my mother!" ”
"The surname is Meng, you dare to beat me!"
"Smack!" Meng Zhen slapped again, "This is for myself!" ”
"Liu Dong, you are a dead man!" Hu Jingjing held her cheeks, frightened by the anger in Meng Zhen's eyes, and called out to her husband on the side.
"Meng Zhen, what grievances do you have, come at me, if you want to beat or scold, I have no complaints."
"Smack! Syllable! Meng Zhen was not polite, and slapped him twice, "It's not for seven years ago that I beat you, between men and women, it's your love and my will, you want to climb high branches, I won't stop you, and I won't hate you." These two slaps are because you actually took the deepest pain in my heart and talked to others like a joke. I can't forgive you for this! ”
"Meng Zhen, don't make trouble. You have forgotten your identity, you must focus on the overall situation, and apologize to President Hu! ”
Mr. Chen came over to grab Meng Zhen, his previous efforts were all in vain, and it was a shame to let his employees be so dozen, and cooperation.
"Mr. Chen, I am your employee, but I get paid for my labor reasonably and legally. I am not your maid, I did not sell myself to the company, I sold my own labor, but my family and self-esteem did not sell to you. I want to apologize to this vixen, but there is no door, so it's a big deal that I won't do it! ”
Meng Zhen broke away from Mr. Chen and said to Hu Jingjing, who was yelling: "Hu Jingjing, I don't blame you for the past, after all, the man who robbed others is your tutor, I heard that there are often 'broken shoes' hanging on the door of your house, and the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, so I don't blame you!" ”
"What, what do you say, who are the 'broken shoes'!"
This is also Hu Jingjing's reverse scale, her mother was often ridiculed when she was a child because of her style, so she has always been very inferior. It wasn't until my mother married a rich old man and had the money to move out of town that I began to forget the nightmare of my childhood.
"You should know better what I say, don't forget, your man used to be my boyfriend, and he told a lot of strange things about your town."
Looking at Hu Jingjing's flushed face, there was a sense of revenge in his heart: "What's the matter, this feeling is not comfortable!" Everyone has their own privacy, so if you don't want to be exposed by others, be kind in the future! ”
After speaking, picking up his bag, Meng Zhen left this unlucky place.
