Lu Zhanyan was still worried that this Mr. Yan was abroad all the year round and should be accustomed to Western food. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. But she has never been good at using knives and forks, and she thought that she might be embarrassed in front of Mr. Yan. It's terrible. But who knows, the restaurant that Mr. Yan brought her to is an authentic Chinese restaurant.

In fact, it's not a high-end restaurant, it's a pretty ordinary restaurant.

There were three people at the meal, Yan Hongtao, and Miss Secretary. and Lu Zhanyan.

As soon as he got to the table, Yan Hongtao's whole person became gentle, not as cold as before. What's even more strange is that he is also very good at Chinese cuisine, and he can explain the ingredients used in the dishes, especially pastries. That's a lot of money.

Lu Zhanyan has not studied these, and she reads because of her poor cooking skills. I couldn't interject, so I could only listen silently.

I originally wanted to mention the cooperation case by the way during dinner, but I was embarrassed to interrupt when I saw him so interested.

Moreover, listening to him say this, I was also a little fascinated.

After lunch, Lu Zhanyan casually asked, "Mr. Yan, you must have planned to be a chef before you did the jewelry industry, right?" ”

But who knew that it was just such a casual sentence, but Yan Hongtao's face changed again.

"Miss Assistant, I'm having this meal with you today, just to tell you clearly. This cooperation plan will no longer be possible with Zhongzheng. Yan Hongtao said solemnly.

Lu Zhanyan was unexpected, and said hurriedly, "Mr. Yan, why is this, you should also know that Zhongzheng is very powerful, and this is a win-win cooperation ......"

"I think you should understand that this cooperation, no matter who you work with, is a win-win situation! Zhongzheng does have strength, but it doesn't mean that other companies don't have it, I don't have to choose Zhongzheng! Yan Hongtao said sharply.

"But if Mr. Yan had no intention of being in the middle, then why did he accept the center in the first place?" Lu Zhanyan asked rhetorically.

"I thought Zhongzheng was honest, but I didn't expect that I didn't even have a concept of time! A company that doesn't even have a concept of time, I'm not interested in working together! ”

"That document is because of me. It's too late! The responsibility is all on me, please forgive me for my mistakes! Lu Zhanyan hurriedly apologized.

Yan Hongtao said, "If your subordinates are not doing well, it is the responsibility of your general manager!" I wouldn't work with a company that doesn't have integrity! Don't say any more, I'm not going to change my mind! I already belong to Wuzhou Group! ”

"Mr. Yan!" Lu Zhanyan still wanted to persuade, but Yan Hongtao got up and left resolutely.

After a few days, Lu Zhanyan's confidence began to gradually crumble.

Especially after having dinner with Mr. Yan, Mr. Yan's resolute attitude made her feel at a loss.

Lu Zhanyan no longer knew what method to use to make him change his decision. And time is getting less and less, Mr. Yan said, he already belongs to the rival Wuzhou Group. Then it seems that it will not be long before the contract with the other party will be signed.

On this day, Lu Zhanyan returned to the company discouraged.

When Assistant Xu saw her like this, he also knew that the result would definitely not be optimistic, so he said in a low voice, "Assistant Lu, it's okay, President Jin will understand." ”

Wang Wen deliberately walked in and comforted, "Assistant Lu, the responsibility for this incident is not yours, it is my fault!" Don't blame yourself! You work hard, that's the priority! ”

Lu Zhanyan was upset, so he could only say "en", but it was still difficult to be at ease.

When he got off work, Assistant Xu turned his head and shouted, "Assistant Lu, aren't you leaving?" ”

Lu Zhanyan said softly, "I'll sort out these documents and leave." ”

"Then you tidy up early and leave work early." Assistant Xu said a word and walked out of the office.

Lu Zhanyan sorted out the documents one by one, packed them with a stapler, and put them in a drawer. Repeating this action, my mind was a little blank, and I didn't know what I was thinking, but I felt very unwilling, but I couldn't do anything.

Distracted, she accidentally shook her hand and hit her arm against the paper clip that was on the edge of the table.

So there was a new disaster, and the paperclip fell to the ground.

Lu Zhanyan frowned in annoyance, only feeling that he was really stupid.

She crouched down and quickly picked it up.

Suddenly, a male voice sounded in the silent office, "Lu Zhanyan? ”

Low and pure, with a unique coldness, that is Qin Shijin!

Lu Zhanyan hurriedly got up, but because he got up too fast, his head accidentally hit the corner of the table, his eyes turned red in pain, and he snorted. She stood awkwardly and looked back at him.

Qin Shijin's long figure stood at the door, and he hadn't seen him for a few days, he was still so handsome and indifferent.

"What are you doing?" He asked in a deep voice.

Lu Zhanyan said embarrassedly, "The paperclip fell to the ground, and I was picking it up." ”

Qin Shijin said again, "Mr. Yan's cooperation case, how did you handle it." ”

His inquiry made her speechless, Lu Zhanyan lowered her head, pursed her lips and didn't know what to say, but she was so unwilling, it shouldn't be just like this.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jin." In the end, she could only apologize softly.

"When mistakes happen, you just need to admit them, not quibble, how much ability you have, you have to know in your heart!" He said indifferently.

Lu Zhanyan gritted his teeth, and was even more embarrassed, "Yes." ”

She shouldn't boast about Haikou, it's so stupid.

"I hope you understand and learn from it in the future!"

"I won't make the same mistake again, please rest assured!" Lu Zhanyan opened his mouth to guarantee.

"Have you seen Mr. Yan these days?" Qin Shijin said again.

Lu Zhanyan frowned and said, "I've seen it, I had a meal with Mr. Yan." ”

"What did he say?"

"Mr. Yan......" Lu Zhanyan hesitated, but still said, "He said that he already belongs to Wuzhou Group." ”

Qin Shijin's tone was flat, "Unexpectedly, Wuzhou is the biggest competitor this time. ”

Lu Zhanyan thought that if the cooperation case failed this time, Zhongzheng would suffer losses, and the reason for the failure was because of her, her fist clenched again, raised her head and said, "Mr. Jin, I am really sorry for this mistake!" I beg your pardon! ”

"You've apologized many times." Qin Shijin's gaze was deep and did not make waves.

She has indeed apologized many times since she started posting, but at this moment, she still has to apologize.

Lu Zhanyan stared and said, "I'm sorry I didn't let Mr. Yan change his mind. ”

The two looked at each other, and there was silence for a while.

After a while, Qin Shijin spoke, and said loudly, "It's not that the contract hasn't been signed yet." ”

Lu Zhanyan was stunned, not understanding what he meant.

"It's man-made, don't give up until the last minute." Qin Shijin's eyes were like torches, and he said calmly.

A sentence pierced her heart, making her originally lost heart come alive in an instant.

"Yes!" Lu Zhanyan replied with a smile and asked again, "But Mr. Jin, what should I do?" ”

Qin Shijin's eyebrows were clear, "Prescribe the right medicine and do what you like." ”

"Mr. Jin, I know what to do." Lu Zhanyan suddenly brightened up and said with a smile.

These four words sound simple, but they are difficult to do.

Lu Zhanyan racked his brains to think about where to start, but he had no direction, let alone someone to inquire, which was obviously very unwise.

There was really no way, she could only try to collect all the interview reports of Mr. Yan, trying to find clues from them.

This method is very stupid, because there are too many interviews and reports about Mr. Yan, she started to read it from the early days, and she barely finished reading it at the end of a day, basically all of them are the same, telling how Mr. Yan grew from a poor teenager to the current jewelry tycoon, and the history of struggle is quite exciting.

It's just that there is still no key to Lu Zhanyan.

Suddenly, when Lu Zhanyan opened the last magazine in his hand, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The article reported that there were a few different descriptions.

Reporter's question: I heard that Mr. Yan likes pastries very much, Mr. Yan has been to many places, I don't know where the pastries impress you the most?

Mr. Yan replied: Do you know aged hawthorn? The kind of hawthorn with red in the black, looks dry and ugly, has a sour taste, and a little bitter, but it has a sweet aftertaste.

The reporter asked again: Why does Mr. Yan have a soft spot for aged hawthorn?

Mr. Yan replied: When I was a child, my family was poor, and I lived by selling hawthorns, and sometimes I would make hawthorn cakes from the leftover hawthorns. This is my favorite taste after tasting many delicacies, because this old hawthorn will make me remember many things that I should not forget.

……

Hawthorn cake? Who would have done it for him?

Lu Zhanyan thought about it, and there was only one possibility, it must be his mother. ()

Is my mother making hawthorn cake?

Lu Zhanyan was suddenly overjoyed, as if he had finally found a breakthrough.

However, aged hawthorn is not so easy to find, she ran almost all the supermarket stores, but did not find the black and red, dry and ugly old hawthorn described by Yan Hongtao.

In the end, he found that kind of aged hawthorn in an inconspicuous small grocery store, Lu Zhanyan instantly recovered his spirits and immediately bought all the hawthorns in the store.

Lu Zhanyan has always been not good at cooking, he used to be busy with part-time work, and he was not picky about food. She originally wanted to buy hawthorn cake, but on second thought, it was too insincere. So I found many ways to make hawthorn cake, but most of them were fresh hawthorn cakes.

Lu Zhanyan frantically browsed through all the production methods, but could not find a way to make pastries from aged hawthorn.

In the end, she was heartbroken, and she improved it according to the steps of fresh hawthorn.

It looks like a simple production process, but who knew that it would be so cumbersome to implement.

The next day, Lu Zhanyan arrived at the company despite the current black green.

She looked terrible after a sleepless night, but her eyes were shining.

Assistant Xu saw that she was carrying two food boxes in her hand, and was a little suspicious.

"Assistant Xu, please help me taste the taste of this hawthorn cake." Lu Zhanyan said, and couldn't wait to open the food box.

"You did this?" Assistant Xu looked at the neat and crystal clear pastries in the food box and was a little surprised.

"What I'm learning now is definitely not as good as the kind of reads that are sold outside, and the taste must not be as good as the reads;."

Assistant Xu had already taken the small spoon handed to him by Lu Zhanyan and dug a piece into his mouth.

Lu Zhanyan looked at his expression nervously, "Isn't it delicious?" ”

Assistant Xu said seriously, "It tastes very good. ”

"Really?" Lu Zhanyan was still not very relieved, worried that Assistant Xu was just comforting her.

Wang Wen also came to the company at this time, and she glanced at her with some confusion, "What are you doing?" ”

Lu Zhanyan saw it and hurriedly called out to her, "Secretary Wang, can you please help me try this too." ”

"Assistant Lu, bring food to the company early in the morning, I'm afraid it's not good......," Wang Wen reminded softly.

Lu Zhanyan dug a piece with a spoon, handed it to her, and said, "You taste it." ”

Wang Wen hesitated, but still took it and tasted it, "It's okay, this is hawthorn cake." However, it seems to be a little different from the ones sold outside, and the taste is stronger. ”

Lu Zhanyan blushed slightly, "It's just that it doesn't look good, I tried it all night, and I finally made something that can be seen a little." ”

"You didn't sleep all night just to do this?" Assistant Xu looked at her in surprise.

Lu Zhanyan nodded, but Wang Wen was stunned, "Assistant Lu, what's the use of you doing this on purpose?" ”

Lu Zhanyan was about to answer, but Assistant Xu shouted, "Mr. Jin." ”

Assistant Xu was the first to see Qin Shijin who walked in, and hurriedly put down the spoon.

Lu Zhanyan and Wang Wen both turned around, and Qin Shijin had already walked to the door.

"What are you all doing together?" Qin Shijin's deep voice sounded.

Wang Wen said, "Assistant Lu made hawthorn cake, let's help taste it." ”

Qin Shijin's gaze slowly swept over the hawthorn cake and stayed on Lu Zhanyan.

Lu Zhanyan was a little cramped, he just thought he was displeased, and apologized and said, "I'm sorry Mr. Jin, I shouldn't have brought food to the company." ”

"Don't take it as an example." Qin Shijin's eyes were deep, but a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes. Jutabudi.

Seeing Qin Shijin leaving, Lu Zhanyan immediately picked up another food box and hurriedly ran out, "I'll go to Mr. Yan's hotel." ”

"Is she going to give hawthorn cake to Mr. Yan?" Assistant Xu looked at her departing figure.

Wang Wen's eyes froze, but she didn't understand what she was doing.

Lu Zhanyan was still waiting in the hotel lobby, but there was no light for long, and Yan Hongtao's secretary came down.

And with her is Chen Zhe, the head of Wuzhou Group.

Lu Zhanyan has read some information about Chen Zhe, a young talent, with outstanding ability, and is the department head of Wuzhou Group.

The two smiled Yan Yan, Chen Zhe was full of smiles, and he looked very proud, and it seemed that the negotiation of the cooperation case was going very smoothly.

If there is no accident, I'm afraid this time it will really fall to Wuzhou Group.

However, Lu Zhanyan regained his strength, and no one would know what the ending would be until the last moment.

Like he said, things are man-made, don't give up until the last minute.

The secretary sent Chen Zhe away, and Lu Zhanyan greeted him with a smile.

The secretary has been familiar with her these days, and said with a smile, "Assistant Lu, you are here again." ”

Lu Zhanyan replied with a smile, "I'm not here to talk about business today, please leave this to Mr. Yan." ”

"What is this?" The secretary took the food box suspiciously.

"This is my thank you gift, thank you Mr. Yan invited me to dinner yesterday."

The secretary sent the food box to Yan Hongtao's room and said truthfully, "Mr. Yan, this is the assistant lady of Zhongzheng who asked me to pass it on to you, saying that it is to thank Mr. Yan for inviting her to dinner yesterday." ”

"Open it and read it;." Yan Hongtao thought of the young girl who was persevering and didn't seem to know what it meant to give up, Yan Hongtao's cold face was a lot gentler.

The secretary opened the food box, and the fresh sweet and sour fragrance overflowed, a familiar and unfamiliar taste.

Yan Hongtao was stunned, his face was in the smoke of the cigar that came out, as if he had fallen into a distant memory.

When Wang Wen received a call from Yan Hongtao's secretary, she was in a trance for a moment before politely replying, "Okay, I'll let her go over immediately." ”

Putting down the phone, Wang Wen used the internal phone to inform Lu Zhanyan, "Assistant Lu, Mr. Yan asked you to go to the hotel immediately." ”

Lu Zhanyan put down the phone and hurriedly packed up the things in his hand.

Seeing this, Assistant Xu casually asked, "Assistant Lu, are you going out again?" ”

"Secretary Wang said that Mr. Yan wants to see me." Lu Zhanyan took the satchel and was about to set off.

Assistant Xu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said, "Assistant Lu, Mr. Yan should not have been moved by you, and now he has changed his mind to cooperate with our Zhongzheng." ”

Lu Zhanyan said, "I don't dare to think like this, but as long as Mr. Yan is willing to see me, I will definitely try my best to persuade him to cooperate with Zhongzheng." ”

"Then come on." Assistant Xu cheered her up with a smile.

Lu Zhanyan thanked him and left in a hurry.

Wang Wen came to Qin Shijin's office with the documents in her arms, and said softly, "Mr. Jin, Mr. Yan's secretary just now asked Assistant Lu to come over. ”

Qin Shijin just said "En" and remained silent.

The look on Wang Wen's face flashed a hint of panic, and then she put down the file and exited silently.

Qin Shijin looked at the closed door, and a hint of thoughtfulness flashed in his deep eyes.

Another turn, Lu Zhanyan hurried to the hotel again, and Yan Hongtao's secretary was waiting for her in the hall.

The secretary smiled, "Assistant Lu, Mr. Yan is waiting for you in the café upstairs, and I'll take you up to reads;." ”

"I'm sorry for you." Lu Zhanyan responded politely and followed the secretary into the elevator.

The secretary saw her uneasiness, and said suggestively, "Mr. Yan likes the hawthorn cake you made." ”

Lu Zhanyan finally calmed down, maybe Mr. Yan asked her to come, just to thank her for the hawthorn cake she made, but she must not miss this opportunity.

Yan Hongtao sat in the brightly lit café, quietly holding a book and reading leisurely.

Lu Zhanyan approached him and said with a smile, "??,?,。 ”

As for angels, angels will appear whenever their hearts are pure.

From Gorky's "Childhood".

Yan Hongtao raised his eyes to look at her, motioned for her to sit, closed the book and said, "You have also read this book?" ”

"I've seen it, but I'm reading the Chinese version." Lu Zhanyan said as he sat down.

"You speak Russian very standardly."

Lu Zhanyan smiled, "I will only use this sentence, because I like it very much, and it took me a long time to remember this sentence." ”

"Which of Gorky's three books do you like the most?" As if casual chatting, Yan Hongtao's smile was very relaxed.

"Personally, I don't like Childhood very much, because I think Alyosha is too pitiful and cruel to live in her grandfather's house. If you like it, it should be "In the World", what about Mr. Yan? Lu Zhanyan asked softly.

"I like all three of them, they are rich in content and intriguing." Yan Hongtao asked warmly, "Do you have any insights?" ”

Lu Zhanyan said indifferently, "If you want to be happy, you must first learn to endure hardship." ”

"It sounds like you've suffered a lot."

"I'm much luckier than Alyosha." Lu Zhanyan smiled, and was not in a hurry to plead, the atmosphere is very good now, if you can naturally talk about business, it will be the best.

Yan Hongtao smiled gently, "It seems that we are all people who can afford to endure hardships." ”

"Mr. Yan has won the award, how can I compare with you, you are a jewelry tycoon, but I am just a little assistant."

Yan Hongtao laughed and said meaningfully, "A person who can afford to endure hardships will not always be just a little assistant." I'm calling you here today to tell you that your craft is really not good. ”

Lu Zhanyan blushed embarrassedly, "I'm sorry." ”

She also knew that it was not very good, after all, it was the first time.

"But your sincerity touched me, if I remember correctly, I only told the media once about the hawthorn cake, and I found it after looking for a long time." Yan Hongtao said teasingly.

Lu Zhanyan admitted calmly, "I looked for a day." ”

"Tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, you and your Mr. Jin will come to the hotel together. This is the last chance, and I hope you will not be punctual again. Yan Hongtao changed his words and said the purpose of his coming to her.

When Lu Zhanyan heard this, he was surprised at first, and then he almost jumped up with joy, and hurriedly said, "We will definitely arrive on time, thank you Mr. Yan for giving Zhongzheng this opportunity again, thank you so much." ”

After Lu Zhanyan left, the secretary came over.

"I saw Assistant Lu rushing out of the hotel just now, and he didn't look like he was usually steady, did Mr. Yan change his mind?"

Yan Hongtao smiled, "Her sincerity is enough to impress anyone." ”

He paused, then added, "Clever, and sound, very good." ”

Lu Zhanyan returned to the company excitedly, and immediately knocked on the door and entered Qin Shijin's office.

Wang Wen saw her elated appearance in the secretary's office and frowned slightly.

"Mr. Jin, Mr. Yan agreed, he agreed to cooperate with us! Tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, he let us to the hotel, he is going to sign a contract with us! Her little face was crimson, and her breathing was a little disordered because she had been running, but her eyes were bright and shining like diamonds.

"Why did Mr. Yan suddenly change his mind?" Qin Shijin looked at her so happy that he couldn't help but unconsciously hook the corners of his lips.

"I don't know very well, I was still thinking about how to open my mouth when I was in the past, but before I could say it, Mr. Yan said it first. Mr. Jin, I took this case down anyway. Lu Zhanyan was a little incoherent, but the whole person radiated light.

"Don't rejoice too early, the contract hasn't been officially signed yet, everything is still unknown." Qin Shijin said in a low voice, but his tone was very gentle, "Why don't you hurry up and prepare the materials and contracts that you will use tomorrow." ”

"Okay, Mr. Jin, I'll go now." Lu Zhanyan hurriedly responded, turned around and ran out of the office.

Qin Shijin watched her leave silently, vaguely remembering how happy she looked, he seemed to have seen it when he was a child.

That time, it seemed that she won first place in the running competition.

……

"Secretary Wang, Mr. Jin asked me to take the information and contract of Mr. Yan's cooperation case." Walking out of the office, Lu Zhanyan came to the secretary's office.

Hearing her say this, Wang Wen asked in surprise, "Mr. Yan's cooperation case has been won?" ”

Lu Zhanyan didn't hide it, and said with a smile, "Yes, no surprise, I will officially sign the contract tomorrow." ”

Wang Wen was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Yes, that's really good." ”

Wang Wen took the document and handed it to Lu Zhanyan, she hesitated and said, "Secretary Wang, I'm sorry for this incident, I still want to say sorry to you." ”

"No, it's my responsibility, you don't have to feel guilty." Wang Wen said solemnly.

"Then I'll get busy first."

"Yes."

After Lu Zhanyan left, Wang Wen looked panicked.

After hesitating for a moment, she took out her mobile phone and made a call, she whispered to the other end, "Chen Zhe, things may change ......"
