"The fabrics imported from our factory are among the best in the country, and we will not use the goods with a little defect."

"What you see now is our production line, our machines are brand new, they are maintained every year, and the hand weavers are hired by the best in the local area, and we try to make sure that every step is not wrong."

"The return rate of our factory has not exceeded 15% for three consecutive years, and many of the people who cooperate with us are old friends, Miss Zhong, you can rest assured that the clothes made in our factory are definitely of the best quality."

The deputy director took Zhong Qing and Xu Ruo to visit the garment manufacturing factory, from dyes to machine workmanship to manual work, every link is perfect, this factory is not only good environment but also high efficiency, Zhong Qing investigated the background of the factory before coming, and found that they have never had a record of delayed delivery.

"Can you take a look at the finished product you've made?" Zhong Qing asked.

The deputy director nodded: "Of course." ”

Xu Ruo glanced at the surrounding environment, and finally fixed his gaze in the direction of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor, a familiar figure flashed by, Xu Ruo frowned slightly, it shouldn't be so coincidental, right?

"Xu Ruo?" Zhong Qing shouted in front: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"I'll go buy two drinks, and I'll come to you later." Xu Ruo said, turned around and walked in the other direction.

This factory is the third factory that Zhong Qing has visited, I have to say that this is one of the three very advantageous, although the scale is not as large as the previous two, but Zhong Qing likes their control and seriousness of details.

If there are no other accidents, Zhong Qing has decided to sign a letter of intent with this factory, and the studio's clothes will be ordered here in the future.

In the factory director's office on the second floor, Gu Xiu stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, his eyes moving slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

"If Miss Zhong is willing to cooperate with our factory, we are willing to charge 50% of the market price." The factory director said: "As for the rest of the ......"

Gu Xiu: "I will transfer the money to your account at one time." ”

The factory director nodded, and then said very incomprehensibly: "Mr. Gu, we and the Gu family were old partners before, although it is the first time to cooperate with you, but to be honest, this is the first time I have encountered this kind of thing." With all due respect, what is your relationship with Miss Zhong below? ”

Gu Xiu moved his lips and said, "Friend." ”

What friend would be willing to pay such a large sum of money? Although fifty percent of the cost was not a huge expense for Gu Erye, the strange thing was that he did this, but he asked the factory to keep it secret and not tell Zhong Qing.

"You just need to take the money to do things, and the benefits will not be less yours." Gu Xiu turned around and said to the factory director, who nodded, and just wanted to send Gu Xiu away, but the secretary suddenly came in and whispered something in the factory director's ear.

Immediately afterwards, the door of the office was pushed open by Xu Ruo, and he saw Gu Xiu standing behind the factory director at a glance.

"What are you doing here?" Xu Ruo asked.

Gu Xiu replied calmly: "Official." ”

Xu Ruo stepped forward: "Such a coincidence, here?" ”

Gu Xiu raised his eyebrows: "It's such a coincidence." The implication is that you believe it or not, and that's the reason given to you anyway.

Xu Ruo was annoyed by Gu Xiu's indifferent attitude, he was not stupid, he didn't believe what Gu Xiu said at all, but he didn't expect Gu Xiu to follow Zhong Qing all the way here, what was his purpose?

In front of the factory director, many words could not be said directly, Xu Ruo and Gu Xiu walked out of the office, and the two of them walked to a no-man's corner around the corner.

"Gu Xiu, you are now engaged to my sister, and you will be my brother-in-law in the future, there are some things I don't want to say that are too ugly." Xu Ruo said patiently: "I know what you think about Zhong Qing, but Zhong Qing doesn't like you, you keep forcing her like this, it will make her sad." ”

Xu Ruo didn't tell Gu Xiu that Zhong Qing suddenly ran out of the banquet hall during the dinner that day, crying heartbreakingly in front of her, it was precisely because she found out that she liked Gu Xiu, so she was so sad.

Telling Gu Xiu that Zhong Qing didn't like him was actually trying to keep Gu Xiu away from Zhong Qing, and at this point, Xu Ruo admitted that he was very selfish.

Gu Xiu's expression was still calm, I don't know if he believed what Xu Ruo said.

"I said, I'm here for business." Gu Xiu said: "The Gu Group has cooperation with the factory, and it is a coincidence that I came here to meet you, that's all." ”

"Also, I will solve the matter of my engagement with Xu Zhiyan, and it has nothing to do with you."

Xu Ruodao: "I know, my sister did too much this time, but I think she did that ridiculous thing because she liked you too much." ”

"Now that you know the absurdity, know that I won't be at her mercy." Gu Xiu said: "Go back and help me tell her, before the matter is out of control, stop it as soon as possible, she is a girl, and it is more appropriate for her to propose to dissolve the marriage contract." ”

Xu Ruo sighed: "Do you really dislike my sister so much?" ”

"I don't like it." Gu Xiu's answer was crisp and neat, without the slightest hesitation: "I didn't like it in the past, and I won't like it in the future, we were friends originally, but now, we are not even friends." ”

I don't know if this kind of Gu Xiu is ruthless or serious, he divides the emotional things very carefully, and will not give any chance to the person he doesn't like, and in the same way, he will give 100% affection to the person he likes.

"Xu Ruo? Why are you here......" Zhong Qing's voice suddenly sounded from behind her, she and the deputy factory director were about to sign the contract, but they didn't expect to see Xu Ruo and Gu Xiu here.

Seeing Gu Xiu, Zhong Qing's expression instantly became a little unnatural, she didn't know how to face him, especially after something like that happened before, she didn't know what to do.

Maybe it was because of Zhong Qing's embarrassment, or maybe it was because he was heartbroken by Xu Ruo's words just now, Gu Xiu didn't say anything and turned to leave, and when Zhong Qing walked in front of Xu Ruo, Gu Xiu's figure had already disappeared around the corner.

Looking at Zhong Qing looking at Gu Xiu's back as he left in a daze, Xu Ruo's heart was sour, and he didn't know what it was like.

He was really selfish, so selfish that he didn't want to tell Gu Xiu the truth about Zhong Qing's crying that night, and similarly, he didn't want to tell Zhong Qing why Gu Xiu agreed to get engaged to Xu Zhiyan.

Zhong Qing cleaned up her mood, sat in the conference room with the deputy factory director and the factory director, and signed a cooperation agreement for the next year.

"Is this the price for a year?" Zhong Qing was surprised when she saw the factory's offer, the price she investigated should have been twice as much, how could it be so low?

The factory director smiled: "Since it is the people of the four major families who come to cooperate with us, the face that should be given is still given, not to mention that this is our first time to cooperate, we have shown full sincerity, in order to be able to cooperate for a long time in the future." ”

The deputy director followed the director's words: "Now it is rumored that the price of our factory is high, but in fact, it is all rumors, and economic benefits are also one of our advantages." ”

Zhong Qing nodded thoughtfully, and didn't think about it anymore, but Xu Ruo remembered Gu Xiu who left the factory director's office just now, maybe it was him......

"Vice President, the matter here has been arranged, you see...... Shall we buy a ticket back now? ”

Gu Xiu sat in the car and was stunned for a long time before he realized that it was the secretary who was talking.

"You go back and help me deal with the company first, and I'll stay for two more days." Gu Xiu said: "Leave me the car keys, you can go first." ”

Although he had doubts in his heart, the secretary still nodded, handed the key to Gu Xiu and turned to leave.

Half an hour later, Xu Ruo and Zhong Qing walked out of the factory gate, and Gu Xiu saw the two of them get into Xu Ruo's car together, and it wasn't until the car drove a few hundred meters that Gu Xiu stepped on the accelerator.

In the car, Zhong Qing was still thinking about what happened to Gu Xiu just now, she didn't know why Gu Xiu suddenly appeared here, was it because of work? Wouldn't that be too much of a coincidence?

"What are you thinking?" Xu Ruo hit the steering wheel, saw that Zhong Qing's expression was wrong, and asked.

"It's fine." Zhong Qing smiled reluctantly: "Xu Ruo, thank you for running around with me in the past two days, I'll invite you to dinner today." ”

"Okay."

Xu Ruo replied quickly, and he felt very happy to hear Zhong Qing take the initiative to invite himself to dinner, but what he didn't expect was that it would be so embarrassing for the two of them to sit at the same table to eat again.

Zhong Qing ate the barbecue in small bites, and after a while, she looked out the window in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking, Xu Ruo called her name several times, and it took a long time for her to react.

Xu Ruo suddenly felt that Zhong Qing, who was outside of work, seemed to have become another person, she was preoccupied, as if she had something in her heart, or someone.

"Gu Xiu said that he came here because of work." Sure enough, after hearing Gu Xiu's name, Zhong Qing subconsciously turned her head to look at Xu Ruo, and when she realized what she was doing, she lowered her head in a panic.

"He's for you."

In just five words, Zhong Qing and Xu Ruo's hearts were broken.

"Originally, I wanted to accompany you out for a walk, but I didn't expect that it was just a meal, and we became so silent between us." Xu Ruo saw that Zhong Qing wanted to speak, and said, "I didn't blame you, Zhong Qing, it's not your fault." ”

Maybe it was his own words that scared Zhong Qing before, maybe Zhong Qing wanted to maintain their friendship but didn't know how to reject his heart, Zhong Qing who Xu Ruo knew was a very soft-hearted and kind person.

"Actually, you care about him, don't you?"

Zhong Qing put down her chopsticks, she didn't know how to answer Xu Ruo's words, she could deny it, but somehow the words came to her lips and couldn't say it.

Xu Ruo's smile became more and more bitter, and he smiled: "So this time...... I still lost, right? ”

Losing to Gu Zihan, whom Zhong Qing liked since childhood, although Xu Ruo was unwilling, he could only let go, and now he lost to Gu Xiu, who had just known Zhong Qing for a few months, Xu Ruo knew that the original feelings could not be measured by time.

Just like Gu Xiu said, liking is liking, it doesn't make sense, and it has nothing to do with knowing each other sooner or later.
