Chapter 9: A Desperate Discovery
I didn't expect things to come to this point. But I'm not a person who is afraid of things by nature. My life credo is, don't cause trouble when you have nothing to do, and don't be afraid of things when you have something.
I looked up at the high-heeled beauty, thought for a moment, and said to her.
"Mr. An, I'm not shirking responsibility! Although it is food poisoning now, it cannot be said that she was caused by eating watermelon. If the hospital can prove it, it is the food poisoning caused by eating watermelon. Then we are willing to take all the responsibilities......"
I would have had a lot more to say. Unexpectedly, the high-heeled beauty suddenly interrupted me. "Well, I agree with you. Say, what responsibilities can you bear? ……”
I frowned slightly. The beauty in high heels seems to be an ordinary sentence, but it actually dug a big hole for me. I had no choice but to say it again.
"As for responsibility, we have to wait until the results of the investigation come out, and then we will talk about it in detail......
The corners of the high-heeled beauty's mouth went up, revealing an elusive smile. She looked at me and asked rhetorically.
"But you're just setting up a stall around here. If you leave this door, you will be responsible for it when the time comes, where will I find you? ”
The words of the high-heeled beauty have changed their taste. In her eyes, Brother Wang and I are not trustworthy objects at all.
My face was a little ugly. I just wanted to argue a few words, but she didn't give me a chance and continued.
"So, my opinion is that you pay a deposit first. If it is your responsibility, this deposit will be used for my colleague's follow-up treatment. If it has nothing to do with you, then I will return this money to Zhao ......."
Before I could speak, Brother Wang asked in a whisper on the side.
"Then how much do you say you have to pay?"
Mr. An glanced at me and said lightly. "Pay 50,000 yuan first, and I will let the finance give you a receipt......
"Fifty thousand?"
Brother Wang looked at me in surprise, and I also chuckled in my heart. Even when Chen Lan and I didn't break up, I didn't have 50,000 yuan. Not to mention that I have squandered all my savings in the past six months.
The high-heeled beauty seemed to see the dilemma between the two of us. Seeing that the two of us didn't speak, she said slowly.
"If you don't have 50,000, then pay 30,000 first. You won't be worried, it's not your responsibility in the end, and I won't return the money to you, right? ”
Brother Wang and I can't take out 30,000 either.
Brother Wang and I were silent. The little assistant suddenly looked at me and said.
"Mr. Lin, you won't even be able to take out this money, will you?"
With the size and salary structure of Orange International. 30,000 yuan, for Mr. An's assistant, is only three or four months' salary. But she didn't know that at this time, even paying the room fee had become a problem. Don't say 30,000, I can't take out even 3,000.
This sentence of the little assistant made me a little embarrassed. No man wants to show his incompetence in public. Especially in the face of a beauty like Mr. An.
I laughed self-deprecatingly. Pick up the sticky notes and pen on the conference table and write quickly on them. After I finished writing, I took out my ID card from my pocket and handed it to the high-heeled beauty on the other side along with the note.
"Mr. An, your assistant is right. I really can't get that money right now! Here is my address and phone number. And my ID. With all that, you should believe that I won't disappear, right? ”
The high-heeled beauty looked at the ID card and sticky notes on the table, and she didn't say a word. Brother Wang, who was beside me, suddenly said.
"Lin Ran, you can't press your things here, or call the police, let the police deal with it......"
As soon as I heard the alarm, the high-heeled beauty looked up at me. I smiled and shook my head. In fact, I thought about handling this matter through the official before. But I don't think that's the best way to fix it.
The high-heeled beauty handed her ID card and sticky notes to the assistant behind her. Then she stood up, looked at me, and said lightly.
"Go back and wait for news. As soon as the report from the hospital comes out, I'll ask the assistant to contact your ......."
After speaking, she gracefully left the conference room with her assistant.
Back to the melon stall. My sister-in-law was anxiously waiting for us to come back. As soon as she saw us, she anxiously asked us what was going on. Brother Wang told her everything that had just happened. I took a box of watermelons from the crisper and sat down on the steps to the side. While listening to Brother Wang, he ate watermelon.
After Brother Wang finished speaking. The sister-in-law's delicate face showed a worried look. She looked back at me and said worriedly.
"Lin Ran, did you say that a certain watermelon was broken, but you and Brother Wang didn't find out. It happened to be eaten by that man? ”
I shook my head slightly. I'm not sure about it now, but I always feel that something is wrong.
My sister-in-law didn't say anything when she saw me. She lowered her head and thought for a while, as if she had made up her mind, and raised her head and said to Brother Wang, "Xiaolin is here to help us, how can we not let him mortgage his documents to others." In this way, let's sell it, give the money to Aolan Company, and redeem Xiaolin's documents......"
I don't know when, my sister-in-law has an extra watch in her hand. Platinum bracelet with a golden dial surrounded by a halo of diamonds. When exposed to the sun, the diamond shines brightly.
I've always been in the advertising industry. As soon as I looked at the Doji logo on the watch, I immediately recognized that it was a piece of Patek Philippe. According to my limited knowledge, the minimum of this watch should be more than 100,000. I could never have imagined that this couple selling watermelons. There would be such an expensive watch. I was a little curious, but I wasn't too embarrassed to ask them.
However, I still rejected my sister-in-law's proposal. Things are not yet at the end of the road. As we spoke, my phone rang. It was attached to a company that asked us to send watermelons.
Putting down the phone, Brother Wang said to me worriedly, "Xiaolin, don't forget it." Don't give watermelons, in case there are bad ones. We'll just ......."
I put the last piece of watermelon in my mouth. While eating, he said, "Send!" Why not send it? You're not telling me that watermelon is absolutely fresh. So what do we have to fear? ”
That's why I dare to say that. I just sent a WeChat message to Manager Zhang, I didn't dare to ask directly, but I just asked him from the side, what is their colleague's evaluation of watermelon? Are there any areas we need to improve? Manager Zhang's answer to me was that more than half of the 200 boxes of watermelons had been eaten by my colleagues. Everyone is still clamoring for him to buy some more tomorrow.
So many people are fine after eating watermelon, but the people in Aolan alone have a problem eating it. Although I don't dare to jump to conclusions now, I always feel that this matter has nothing to do with our watermelon.
Although I thought so, I was still a little nervous. For the whole afternoon, all it took was the phone ringing. I'm going to be shocked. I'm always afraid that a call from a company will say that someone has a problem with eating again. Fortunately, all this is just my worries.
Watermelons are sold out. I'll let Brother Wang and them go back first. It's still normal to prepare for tomorrow. At the same time, they were instructed to use the freshest watermelon.
After Brother Wang left. I'm hanging out alone around Oran. I hope to meet an Ollan employee so I can ask them about the morning.
But I didn't meet any employees. But the second time I passed by Orange International, my eyes were attracted by a trash can next to me.
