Chapter 144: Wang Yan: Is My Face Only Worth Thirty Thousand?
From afar, Wang Yan saw Yang Zixi wearing thin clothes, shivering and standing on the side of the road.
Let the designated driver honk the horn, and saw Yang Zixi raise her head to look here, and after confirming that there was no problem with the license plate, she hurriedly ran over and opened the passenger door to get in.
Feeling the heat in the car, Yang Zixi shivered: "From today on... ah... right"
Halfway through the sentence, Yang Zixi looked at the designated driver sitting in the driver's seat and was stunned, hurriedly wanting to say sorry and get out of the car.
Wang Yan's voice sounded at the right time: "Here."
Yang Zixi looked back to confirm, let out a long breath, and said shivering: "I... I still... thought I got in the wrong car."
"Can you drive?"
"No... can't." Yang Zixi hadn't recovered yet.
"Tell the master a mall, go buy two sets of clothes to wear first."
It's normal that Yang Zixi can't drive, after all, her time is either spent studying men or studying luxury goods, where does she have the energy to learn to drive? And having found a big sugar daddy, she doesn't need to drive.
Upon hearing this, Yang Zixi's spirit lifted, and she looked back at Wang Yan with a bit of pity: "Then... then go to... China World Trade Center?"
This didn't make her shiver, hearing that she was going to buy two sets of clothes first, countless new products she had seen recently flashed through her mind. However, she didn't understand deeply enough, she still had some count, so she came up with a hesitant question.
After all, she's a professional, about manipulating men, that's completely instinct. Knowing what men like, knowing how to arouse men's desire for protection, desire for performance, etc...
In Yang Zixi's expectant eyes, Wang Yan's faint voice sounded: "Drive."
Her level is simply not enough in front of Wang Mouren. Judging from her performance in the drama, whether she spent fifty thousand in the time she was with Andy is a question, and in the end, she was kicked away, and she didn't even take those things, selling them second-hand could recover some...
The designated driver started steadily, once again merging into the traffic.
As for what the designated driver thinks?
Wang Yan doesn't know the specifics, but there is a kind of emotion, it should be called envy, called jealousy...
All the way without words, soon arrived at the China World Trade Center...
Wang Yan didn't have the heart to accompany Yang Zixi to shop back and forth, directly gave a card and let her look and buy, he himself found a place to wait.
This wait was more than an hour, Yang Zixi was wearing new clothes, and she was carrying a lot of big and small bags in her hands, it didn't look like two sets at all.
Walking to the front, Yang Zixi carefully put the things on the ground, sat on Wang Yan's lap very skillfully, and hugged his neck: "Sorry, honey, I wanted to buy everything I saw, and bought too much by accident..."
She was still testing, just to see how much Wang Yan was willing to spend for her.
Wang Yan patted her butt: "There should be more than two million in that card, it's your pocket money from now on, spend it however you want."
"Really?"
"Let's go." Without answering her nonsense, Wang Yan patted her butt to signal her to come down.
Yang Zixi sensibly came down from Wang Yan's lap, carried a pile of things herself, and followed Wang Yan to the parking lot.
Wang Yan didn't take her back to the residence, bringing this kind of player back easily gives her an illusion. Although two big slaps could solve that cheap illness, it's annoying, not worth it. Wait until tomorrow to buy an apartment nearby, come to a golden house to hide the sparrow, the skill can make her happy, save annoyance, and can also increase value, killing two birds with one stone.
So Wang Mouren directly found a five-star hotel nearby, do the serious things first...
Wang Yan might have helped Wu Di this time, after all, without this Yang Zixi making trouble on the side, maybe he and that Wu Mei could have a different result.
Of course, that Wu Mei, Wang Mouren will still handle her...
After Wang Yan left, the remaining few people drank for a while, and then dispersed drunk.
Cheng Feng didn't know if he was really drunk or fake drunk, when he left, he held Shen Bing's hand and wouldn't let go, saying things about how Xiaomeng was this and that, which made people laugh and cry.
Later, Shi Xiaomeng brought back another bottle of wine, and he drank more than half of it. Adding the previous ones, it must have been a catty. He drank the most. Originally Cheng Feng's drinking capacity was average, so everyone didn't doubt it.
In the end, Wu Di, who basically didn't drink much, dragged him back.
All this didn't escape Hu Rongqiang's eyes, he was watching the whole process, and he was very clear about Cheng Feng's little thoughts, and the little ideas in his brain also came up.
"Cheng Feng is really interesting, can't drink, why drink so much?" Shen Bing smiled and cleaned up the mess on the table, not caring about Cheng Feng's actions just now at all, even a bit dumbfounded.
It's modern, not a child, there's no such thing as blushing after touching a hand.
Shi Xiaomeng held a trash can in one hand to catch the residue Shen Bing swept down: "Maybe it's also because of yesterday's trouble, he has something on his mind, a bit unhappy."
After saying this, Shi Xiaomeng shook his head and sighed: "This person's life, really different. Brother Feng was born with a golden spoon, richer than us, more awesome than us. Don't know where he has so many worries every day, if it were me, I would be laughing silly every day? Oh my, can't compare, can't compare."
Feeling Shi Xiaomeng's loss, Shen Bing gave a sweet smile: "Xiaomeng, aren't we doing pretty well now? Wait for the eighty thousand to arrive, we can be considered to have taken root in this Beijing. The most important thing is, we rely on ourselves to have today. In my heart, you are not worse than anyone. The days ahead, definitely will get better and better."
"Of course, the two of us definitely getting better and better." Shi Xiaomeng was just complaining, sighing that people have different lives, not to mention being milked again.
"Ai, Xiaomeng, don't say, that Wang Yan really takes care of you." Shen Bing remembered Wang Yan who left early, and said: "Before Hu Rongqiang said what money is for, the words Wang Yan said sounded really relieving, at that time Hu Rongqiang's expression, really... haha..."
Laughed twice, Shen Bing continued: "And, Cheng Feng, Wu Di, and Hu Rongqiang, the three of them all came empty-handed. Wang Yan brought those four bottles of wine worth twenty thousand, although he didn't say, looking at Hu Rongqiang's meaning, this wine will be more valuable in the future. And the nutritional supplements he brought, I also looked, the price is marked on the back, none of them are cheap. It's just that three bottles of wine were drunk... what a pity..."
Of the four people who came this time, only Wang Yan brought things, and the value was not low. This thing is afraid of comparison, the other three are a bit lacking, especially Hu Rongqiang, it's the first time coming, shouldn't he, the boss, bring something? As a result, he really licked his face and came, and ate and drank a lot...
"Must call Wang Ge, we can't call him Wang Ge to his face, and Wang Yan behind his back, that's not good."
"I just said it like that, you're taking it seriously."
Looking at Shen Bing who was pouting and acting innocent, Shi Xiaomeng didn't say much, just correct it, he knew Shen Bing would take it seriously.
"Wang Ge is really good to me, although those four bottles of wine might not be anything in his eyes, but being able to send such expensive wine to me, Shi Xiaomeng, really treats me as a younger brother. After all, no matter how much Wang Ge doesn't care, he can't just throw tens of thousands to others. Wang Ge spoke for me, not only you feel relieved, I also feel relieved. This Hu Rongqiang is too stingy, you don't know how much he can calculate. Girl, let me tell you, this Hu Rongqiang..."
Shi Xiaomeng also drank two taels of wine, taking advantage of that bit of wine energy, he frantically complained to his closest girl, spraying Hu Rongqiang.
After listening to the salary deduction, the messy men and women affairs, Shen Bing was stunned. Her living environment before was relatively closed, she heard few rotten things, this Hu Rongqiang's operation had already broken through her imagination.
"This Hu Rongqiang is really..."
"Not a good person."
"Right, not a good person."
Looking at Shen Bing's righteous indignation, Shi Xiaomeng laughed: "I'm thinking, wait for the eighty thousand to arrive, I'll research changing jobs. After all, we are all working for others, working for anyone is working, no need to stick to this company. Isn't that right, girl."
"Hmm, right, Hu Rongqiang is not a good thing, still don't work with him." Shen Bing thought for a while and said: "By the way, didn't Wang... Wang Ge ask you to work with him? How about you go there?"
"Work with Wang Ge..." Shi Xiaomeng mused for a moment, and said: "Let's see."
He couldn't open his face, originally Wang Yan asked him to go before, but he refused. Now turning around and looking for him, although Wang Yan said in advance that it's okay at any time, he is really embarrassed. So he thought he would look for it first, if it really doesn't work, then go beg Wang Yan...
And even if he successfully bought a house, he still has to pay the mortgage, still has to rent a house, still has to live daily, that's all money. So he definitely can't leave in a short while, just wait.
The two talked and laughed, cleaned up the table and washed the bowls, put on clothes and ran out to see the night view of Beijing, imagining a beautiful life.
On the roof with the "Happy Life, Lucky Company" light sign, Shi Xiaomeng stood on a platform, facing the biting cold wind, looking at the neon that couldn't be seen to the end in the distance, shouted
"Beijing, I'm here, the girl is also here."
"For myself."
"Also for the woman beside me."
"We want to struggle, we want to be happy."
"We want to stay here forever!"
"Beijing, did you hear, we want to stay here forever!"
Shi Xiaomeng on the stage, ambitious,
Shen Bing off the stage, full of eyes is the man shouting with arms raised on the stage,
She jumped onto the stage, hugged him, stepped on Beijing under her feet,
Their eyes only have each other, are each other's light, they seem to really be able to forever forever...
Saturday, Yang Zixi rests, Wang Yan goes to work.
Sunday, Wang Yan took Yang Zixi to buy a two-bedroom house nearby, the south side is the bedroom, the north side is the cloakroom... After finding someone to clean it up that day, Wang Yan filled it up.
Compared to the stingy Andy, the generous Wang Mouren is a living Bodhisattva to Yang Zixi.
Monday, it's the beginning of another dark week, ordinary people drag their tired bodies, numbly waving their arms, with expectations for a better life in the future, walking towards the bloody mouth opened by that dog-shitty boss, starting a new reincarnation...
Shen Bing went out to visit Beijing with Lin Xia who came to find her early in the morning, while Shi Xiaomeng came to the company to work, Hu Rongqiang had given him two days off before.
He finished the project, and there was no work in his hands for the time being. At this moment, sitting at the workstation, his butt twisting and twisting, changing legs back and forth, getting up to get water from time to time.
Now his whole mind is eighty thousand, all thirty-eight, the heart is growing grass, simply can't calm down. Not exaggerating, this is an important point in his life, how can he be at ease.
Bored sitting at the workstation pulling news and current events, he hopes to distract his attention, let himself calm down, after all, there is still a period of time until the end of the month, he is so restless now is also in vain.
"Shi Xiaomeng, President Hu called you to his office."
Just as he was pulling news, Hu Rongqiang's little honey named Seeing Nana came to find him.
Hearing this, Shi Xiaomeng stood up suddenly: "Good, thank you, Seeing Nana, I'll go over right away."
What could Hu Rongqiang want with him at this time? Isn't it about the eighty thousand bonus, could it be that he wants to give it to him in advance? Shi Xiaomeng thought, and unknowingly arrived in front of Hu Rongqiang's office door.
"Dong... Dong..."
Shi Xiaomeng took a deep breath, calmed down his restless heart, and knocked on the office door.
"Come in."
Hearing the response, Shi Xiaomeng pushed the door and entered: "Hu Ge, you looking for me."
Hu Rongqiang, who was looking down at the information, raised his head upon hearing the sound, straightened his body, and pointed to the chair in front of him: "Here, Xiaomeng, come and sit."
Shi Xiaomeng responded, smiled and sat opposite him.
Hu Rongqiang didn't say a word, first a long sigh: "Xiaomeng, I had a meeting with the finance department this morning. It's like this, now, the industry is not prosperous, our company is not a big company, so the company's situation is not too good recently. I thought we were pretty good here, didn't expect to see it today, it's all holes."
Shi Xiaomeng understood when he heard this, this eighty thousand bonus is damn going to be gone...
"And the previous project, we also invested a lot of money to rent light boxes for outdoor advertising, their money still needs a period of time to hit. Don't look at our company as small, but the expenses are not small at all, like rent..." Hu Rongqiang beeped a lot, saying the company is too difficult, he, the boss, is also not easy, and after another long sigh, said: "So, Xiaomeng, your eighty thousand bonus has been affected, brother has to say sorry to you."
Shi Xiaomeng listened to Hu Rongqiang's nagging blankly, his face ugly, anxious, nervous, desperate, pleading, etc., could be seen in three points.
"Don't, Hu Ge, this eighty thousand is particularly important to me." At this point, how could he sit still, hurriedly stood up and said: "Hu Ge, let me tell you the truth, I bought a house a while ago. The deposit is also very expensive, not only all my money, but also borrowed two thousand from a friend. Now the problem is, I have to pay the down payment, and the down payment is exactly eighty thousand."
Hu Rongqiang listened to Shi Xiaomeng's words with a difficult expression, hearing this, even drank some water...
"But our contract, it's signed very clearly. If this eighty thousand down payment can't be paid on time, the previous deposit will be gone, they won't refund it. The latest payment is the end of this month, Hu Ge, help me."
"I understand your difficulties very well, but I also have my difficulties, Xiaomeng, you also have to understand brother."
"Hu Ge, this house is my dream with Shen Bing, the dream with your sister-in-law. We are all counting on this house, Hu Ge. You say if this eighty thousand is not given to me, how can we buy this house, right." Shi Xiaomeng accompanied with a smile, leaned forward one step: "How about this, Hu Ge, let's discuss, this eighty thousand, you give it to me first. But don't worry, I will definitely pay it back, then you can deduct it from my salary month by month, do you think this is okay, Hu Ge?"
Hu Rongqiang mused for a long time, showing a difficult expression, and when Shi Xiaomeng couldn't stand it, finally opened his mouth: "Xiaomeng, the company's financial turnover is indeed very difficult recently. Ai... Wang's words yesterday were right, how about this, Xiaomeng, brother will give you thirty thousand first, you deal with the emergency first, you think of a way for the rest. This is really my greatest ability, Xiaomeng. Any more, I really can't take it out. Do you think it's okay?"
In fact, he wanted to give nothing before, but later thought it was inappropriate. Because Wang's shot before was so generous, bringing four bottles of wine on the first visit, eighty thousand must be a small matter. If he forced Shi Xiaomeng to a hurry, and he gritted his teeth to open his mouth to Wang, what should he do? Wouldn't he have wasted two days of brain cells in vain.
So he gave a number of thirty thousand that was neither high nor low, making him embarrassed to open his mouth to Wang because of fifty thousand. After all, no one is a fool, everyone knows that favors are used less and less. Wang is such an awesome character, he doesn't believe Shi Xiaomeng has no measure in his heart. And he also pointed to Wang in his words, indicating that this was given for Wang's face, then he would be even more embarrassed to open his mouth to others.
Just now he heard Shi Xiaomeng say he borrowed two thousand from a friend for the deposit, then who is this person? The first one he thought of was Cheng Feng. After all, Wu Di had no sense of existence in the whole scene before, and his dress was also average, according to his experience, it could basically be concluded that Wu Di was not good. Then besides Cheng Feng, there was no one else.
And since he had already borrowed two thousand from Cheng Feng, based on his understanding of Shi Xiaomeng, the possibility of borrowing money from Cheng Feng again was not big. Although his academic qualifications were not as high as Shi Xiaomeng's, his thoughts when he came out to break through were not bad, that is, he was embarrassed.
Then to this point, what can Shi Xiaomeng do? Isn't it still going to submit obediently as he thought?
Hu Rongqiang was fascinated by his own intelligence and superb calculation, really a genius...
Shi Xiaomeng heard there was thirty thousand, thought about it and didn't say anything more, hurriedly accompanied with a smiling face: "Ai ya, then thank you so much Hu Ge, really thank you, I'll think of a way for the rest."
People are like this, saying an unacceptable one, then unexpectedly giving a little sweetness, it is easier to accept. Not only that, but also be grateful to others...
