In the late autumn of September and a half, the days became very short, and it was only six o'clock at this time, but the sky was completely out of sight.

Nanfeng sat in the driver's seat, thinking about giving Lu Chengyu a diàn huà, and asked him if he had gotten off work, and the window glass was suddenly knocked from outside.

She turned her head and saw that it was a man in his thirties, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, quite decent, so she rolled down the window without much vigilance: "Is there something wrong?" ”

The man spoke with a smile: "Hello, is it Nan Xiǎo Jiě?" ”

"I am, who are you?" Nanfeng was sure that this person was not an employee of AS, so he was curious about his presence here and calling out her name.

The man responded: "Nan xiǎo jiě, my name is Shi Ming, and my old lady wants to see you." ”

Want to meet her? Nanfeng is even more inexplicable: "Who is your old lady?" ”

"My old lady has her husband's surname Lu."

As soon as this identity was explained, Nanfeng was stunned.

It turned out to be Mrs. Lu!

Lu Chengyu's grandmother!

It's not that she didn't prepare to meet Lu Chengyu's family in the future, but she didn't expect that Mrs. Lu would take the initiative to find her first, and so suddenly, she directly sent someone to the door of her company to 'invite'!

Nanfeng's mind turned a thousand times in an instant, she didn't know anything about the Lu family at all, if she wanted to meet now......

"Did the old lady only say that she saw me alone?"

"Yes."

It seemed that she could really only face it alone, and Nanfeng exhaled: "Can I talk to Chengyu?" ”

"Naturally."

Nanfeng raised the window of the car and called Mr. Lu, and as soon as it was connected, she couldn't help but sigh: "Chengyu, I can't eat with you tonight." ”

"Looks like someone invited you to dinner?" Mr. Lu said slowly, "It's just right, I can't go home for dinner tonight." ”

Well? Such a coincidence? Nanfeng thoughtfully: "You also have someone to invite?" ”

He chuckled, "Not really. ”

It seems that the dinner of their husband and wife tonight will be very rich......

After ending the call, Nanfeng started the car and followed Shi Ming to the old lady's residence.

On the way, she searched for this old lady Lu with shou ji, but unfortunately, the Lu family has always been low-key and could not find any valuable information at all.

Not long after, their car stopped in front of a very secluded courtyard, which was antique, without any ostentatious decoration, faintly, and smelled the scent of sandalwood in the air.

Nanfeng was led by Shi Ming into the second floor of the main house, he pushed open the door of one of the rooms, and said respectfully to the people inside: "Nan Xiǎo Jiě has arrived." ”

Nanfeng pursed his lips and crossed the threshold, only to find that this room was originally a small Buddhist hall.

Directly in the direction of the door is a Buddhist shrine with three statues of Bodhisattvas, and a desk with incense burners and fruits. On either side of the hall are six single-seater sofas, with a small coffee table between the two sofas and a rectangular coffee table in the center.

The light is bright huáng sè, shining on the solemnity of the Buddhist hall, and as soon as the south wind comes in, I can't help but straighten my waist, and dare not make any more frivolous moves.

On the couch at the front on the right sat an old man, her eyes sharp, looking at her unabashedly.

Nanfeng walked towards her, and as she walked, her eyes silently swept the old man's whole body, and she had a bottom in her heart.

When she got nearr, the old man said, "Sit down." ”

Nanfeng thanked her, sat down on the sofa next to her, and then asked preemptively, "What should I call you?" ”

Hearing this, the old man looked at her again: "Didn't Shi Ming tell you?" ”

Nanfeng smiled slightly: "Mr. Shiming only said that the old lady wanted to see me, but he didn't say that there were other people besides the old lady who wanted to see me." ”

The old man raised his eyebrows and asked in turn, "Do you think I don't look like an old lady?" ”

"Although you sit in this Buddha hall, drinking the best dragon well, and showing the posture of a master, I am sure - you are not." Nanfeng's tone was very determined.

The old man just smiled faintly this time, obviously Nanfeng was right.

However, she didn't expect to be recognized so quickly, but she was a little interested: "How do you know I'm not?" ”

"The old lady believes in the Buddha, although not everyone who believes in the Buddha will wear Buddha-related jewelry on their bodies, but most people should have this habit, but you don't." Nanfeng observed that there were no Buddhist beads or Buddhist cards on her neck and wrists.

"That alone?"

Nanfeng smiled: "Not all, there is also a scar on the back of your hand, although I don't know what caused it, but a person like the old lady who is born in a famous family and enjoys honor, it should not be easy to get injured, even if it is injured, it will definitely be able to get timely and best treatment, and it is unlikely to leave scars." ”

"The most important point is that Mr. Shi Ming only said to you just now, 'Nan xiǎo jiě is coming', and did not call you 'old lady' before reporting it, such an impolite thing, it is impossible for a person like Mr. Shi Ming who has to repair his sideburns and hair neatly."

She not only observed her, but also observed Shi Ming before, and judged his personality from the small details of Shi Ming, and even judged her identity from Shi Ming's reaction!

After the old man paused slightly, his eyebrows showed appreciation: "Nan xiǎo jiě is not surprised, observant and admired." ”

Nanfeng did not accept her compliment modestly, and asked again, "What should I call you?" ”

The old man no longer concealed it: "I am the one who serves by Madame's side, since Nan Xiǎo Jiě is a friend of the young master, then let him call me Aunt Su." ”

Nanfeng had somewhat guessed in his heart that it was the person next to the old lady, but even Lu Chengyu had to call her 'Aunt Su', it seems that her status in the Lu family is not low.

Tonight's play seems to be trying to test her.

She was silent: "Hello Aunt Su, where is the old lady?" ”

"Nan xiǎo jiě, you haven't had dinner yet, have you?" As soon as her words fell, two maids came up outside the door with dishes, both of which were vegetarian food, but they were very delicately cooked, and it also made people appetize when they looked at it.

"These are all prepared by Madame in the kitchen, you can see if they are to your taste."

Nanfeng's gaze swept over the four dishes in front of him, thinking that she had deliberately avoided her question just now, could it be that the temptation was not over yet? Adhering to the mentality that what comes is safe, she picked up the chopsticks and said with a smile: "Thank you, old lady, for your hospitality." ”

In fact, she was already hungry after a day's work, but she remembered that this was a test and didn't dare to eat too presumptuously.

Aunt Su was noncommittal to her eating, holding the teacup in both hands and blowing away the curling white smoke: "Is Nan Xiǎo Jiě a local?" ”

"yes."

"At a young age, you can serve as a manager-level executive in AS Group, presumably Nan Xiǎo Jiě's ability is not bad, but people can't rest on their laurels, I don't know if you have set a goal for yourself?"

Nanfeng was slightly stunned, not understanding what she meant.

Aunt Su seemed to know that she couldn't answer, and without waiting for her to think, she said again: "Young master is very purposeful in doing things. When he was eighteen years old, he studied in the United States, and used his spare time to learn management with the manager of the branch there, because he knew that he was the only heir of the Lu family, and the Lu Group of Nuoda would be in charge of him sooner or later. ”

As a result, in less than two months, he not only did it, but he also managed Lou Dong and repaired it, so that the branch did not have a serious brain drain in ten years.

Nanfeng was shocked when he heard this.

She had long known that Lu Cheng was powerful, but she didn't expect that he was already so good at the age of eighteen.

Brain drain is a huge crisis that every company will face, and the most serious brain drain may even lead to the disintegration and closure of the enterprise, and Lu Chengyu can not only come up with a way to solve this problem, but also that company is still located in the United States, in the eyes of Americans, foreign subsidiaries are the most unreliable, and he can let those elites not leave in ten years, which is not amazing.

At the same time, Nanfeng also knew the meaning of Aunt Su's words to her - she just wanted her to know how good Lu Chengyu was, so that she could reflect on how unworthy she was - Aunt Su didn't look down on her, so she knew that she and Lu Chengyu had already obtained the certificate, but she still called her 'Nan Xiǎo Jiě', and just now she even expressed her identity as 'Young Master's friend'.

Nanfeng pursed his lips slightly.

Sure enough, Aunt Su's next sentence was: "Nan Xiǎo Jiě spent a year sitting in the position of manager, but in the next two years there was no progress, do you want to be in this position forever?" ”

"Not all self-motivation is climbing." Nanfeng responded calmly, "You also know the status of AS Group in China, even if it has been placed in the position of manager, it does not mean that it can be done once and for all, and no achievements will also be dismissed." ”

"You're trying to tell me how hard it is for you to keep this manager?" There was a slight sneer on Aunt Su's lips, "Nan Xiǎo Jiě, a truly capable person, no matter how severe the environment, can find a way to climb. You are capable, but your ability is limited to self-preservation. ”

"Lu's Group is thriving in foreign shopping malls, and it has a transcendent position in domestic shopping malls, not relying on self-preservation." This sentence already points out that she is not worthy of the Lu family from the inside out!

Nanfeng's face did not change for a moment, staring at the eyes of the old man opposite, and his tone was equally confident: "Some people use the metaphor of 'sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat' to describe the difficult world, and if you don't work hard to move forward, you will retreat, but I think it is more difficult to stay still in the reverse water than to move forward." ”

Aunt Su was stunned, but she didn't expect her to give such a dá àn: "You mean, you deliberately did not get promoted, and deliberately only wanted to be a department manager?" It was so weird, so ridiculous, she couldn't help but stare in, "Why?" ”

Nanfeng smiled slightly, frank and direct: "You should know what my department is, right?" ”

Aunt Su acquiesced that it was Gong Guān, which specialized in socializing with all kinds of customers, which was another major reason why she was dissatisfied with her.

Nanfeng said: "Yes, I am from the Gong Guān department, and most of the customers negotiated with the group must be received and arranged by the gong guān department, which means that I have the most comprehensive network of contacts in the entire group. ”

Network! Aunt Su's eyes narrowed, and she already understood: "If you achieve higher achievements, you can also have these connections." ”

Nanfeng suddenly changed his words and mentioned an irrelevant matter: "I went to France on a business trip last month and met Mr. Michael of the Jossen Group, and a few days ago he specially airlifted a bag of doughnuts to me, saying that he had discovered a new flavor, and knew that I also loved to eat them, so he shared them with me. ”

Aunt Su frowned slightly, Mr. Michael, she knows, it is an old friend of the Lu family, in her impression, it is a very stereotypical old man, how can she be so good to the girl in front of her? And a very insignificant snack was specially delivered? And why did she mention this at this time?

Nanfeng took a deep breath and finally said decisively the dá àn of everything: "Connections are only one's own if you hold them in your hands." Just like the emperor and the general, although the military power is in the hands of the emperor, it is always the general who holds the heavy army, and the person who the soldier is most convinced of is also the general. If I were in other higher positions, I would have networked as well, but definitely not as direct and intimate as I am now. ”

Aunt Su's hand on the armrest tightened suddenly!

It turns out that she wants to be the first to master the network, not a virtual decoration, strong outside!

After the stern words, Nanfeng smiled again: "Aunt Su, the city is very good, but I am not bad." ”
