Chapter 111: Zhang Deyou in a Panic

~7 min read 1,303 words

Gong Kailin was so unfriendly to him, Zhou Andong knew with his butt that he had moved someone else's cake. As for where some people were cutting the cake, he was too lazy to care. Anyway, the distillery had always been subsidized by finance, without loans, without debts.

Kang Yu ordered dinner at the reception house, but Zuo Peiming had an important meeting and had to go back as soon as possible. Zhou Andong and Gu Bing naturally wouldn't stay.

What they didn't expect was that while they were still on the way back to the city, the news of the acquisition of the Jinli County Distillery had spread in the Jiangzhou Distillery. What surprised everyone was that the person in charge of this acquisition was Zhou Andong. And the one who signed the contract was Secretary Gu.

After Zhang Deyou heard this news, his face suddenly became somewhat pale. Logically speaking, Gao Qingkui would retire in a few days, and his appointment should have come down long ago, but there had been no news so far, which had made him uneasy. But Gao Qingkui had been saying that the factory director's position was his, and no one could snatch it away, which made him feel relieved.

But such a big thing as the acquisition of the Jinli County Distillery, he didn't even know, and only heard about it after the contract was signed, which made him completely panic.

Zhou Andong was the person in charge of this acquisition, he didn't think too much, thinking this was Zuo Peiming deliberately cultivating him, but Gu Bing signed the contract on behalf of the distillery, which was very intriguing. Especially now that the appointment hadn't come down, could it be that they wanted Gu Bing to concurrently serve as factory director?

The more Zhang Deyou thought, the whiter his face became, the more he thought, the more panicked his heart became. He walked quickly out of the office to find Gao Qingkui.

At this time, Gao Qingkui's face was not very good either. The matter was completely beyond his expectations, and his thoughts coincided with Zhang Deyou's, thinking that the city intended to let Gu Bing concurrently serve as factory director, which was not good news for them.

Zhang Deyou pushed the door and entered, without even knocking: "Factory Director, you should know everything, right."

Gao Qingkui nodded, stroking the hot enamel tea mug: "It's really surprising."

"What should we do?" Zhang Deyou asked in a panic.

"What are you panicking about?" Gao Qingkui looked at Zhang Deyou dissatisfied, "The sky won't fall."

Zhang Deyou's throat rolled, although he stopped talking, the lost look in his eyes betrayed him.

Gao Qingkui held the enamel tea mug, stood up and looked out the window, and after a long while said: "Can't wait anymore, hold a staff meeting tomorrow to fire Zhou Andong. As long as he rolls out of the distillery, even if you can't be factory director, we still have a chance."

Zhang Deyou said unwillingly: "Is there really no other way?"

Gao Qingkui slowly turned back, looked at Zhang Deyou and said: "If this matter has become a fact, it proves that Deputy Secretary Lin also cannot oppose it. If it is not a fact, our worry is superfluous."

Zhang Deyou gritted his teeth: "Okay, I'll let Qu Hongqi arrange it."

Gao Qingkui nodded: "Must not make any mistakes, this is also our only chance."

"I understand!" Zhang Deyou turned and left.

After Zhou Andong and Gu Bing returned, they went directly to Jian Qiu's office.

Seeing them, Jian Qiu stood up and opened her arms to greet them.

Gu Bing laughed out loud, stretched out his hand to hug. Then he saw Jian Qiu push his arm aside, hug Zhou Andong, and say happily.

"Congratulations."

Zhou Andong hugged Jian Qiu, deeply sniffing the scent of shampoo in her hair: "Thank you!"

Gu Bing silently took out a cigarette and lit it, then sat in the chair, looking up at the ceiling, with a sad face.

"Tell me the process quickly." Jian Qiu was like a little girl, shaking Zhou Andong's hand coquettishly.

Zhou Andong walked behind the desk, sat in the chair, Jian Qiu sat on his lap, then opened the drawer, took out a box of cigarettes, unwrapped it, took one out, put it in Zhou Andong's mouth, and then took out a lighter from the drawer and lit the cigarette.

Zhou Andong asked: "Why do you put a box of cigarettes in the drawer?"

Jian Qiu said: "Prepared for you."

This woman is too considerate, Zhou Andong was moved, grabbed Jian Qiu's hand and kissed it.

Jian Qiu smiled charmingly and kissed Zhou Andong on the face.

"That's enough!" Gu Bing said dissatisfied: "You two are so unscrupulous in front of me, did you consider my feelings?"

Zhou Andong snorted: "If you don't want to see it, get out."

"That is!" Jian Qiu hugged Zhou Andong's neck and echoed: "If you don't want to see it,

Gu Bing pointed at the two of them, and it took him a long time to say: "You two are ruthless."

Jian Qiu laughed: "Hurry up and tell me about the negotiation process."

Zhou Andong gave a brief summary, and Jian Qiu smacked her lips again and kissed Zhou Andong on the face: "Darling, you are too amazing."

Gu Bing couldn't help but speak up again: "Qiuqiu, you aren't even married yet, and you're already calling him 'darling.' Can we be a bit more reserved?"

Jian Qiu rolled her eyes at Gu Bing: "I'm willing to, is it any of your business?"

Gu Bing couldn't be bothered to look anymore. He stood up and walked out: "I'm starving, I'm going to eat."

"Wait!" Zhou Andong patted Jian Qiu's thigh: "We're going to eat too."

By the time they finished eating, it was already time to get off work. Zhou Andong and Jian Qiu went to the shop but didn't see An Jing; that dead girl must have gone home.

At over seven hundred square meters, even after partitioning off a cold storage room, the area was not small. Zhou Andong felt that with such a large area, it would be enough to open a real Western restaurant; selling burgers was a bit of a waste.

The two walked around the shop, stayed for a short while, and then left. Zhou Andong then sent Jian Qiu home. Sure enough, An Jing was in the living room watching TV, holding an apple in her hand and gnawing on it.

"Oh!" An Jing said happily: "You're back, have you eaten?"

Jian Qiu nodded: "We have, what about you?"

"I've eaten too!" An Jing picked up an apple from the fruit platter on the coffee table, "Try it, I bought it today, it's very sweet."

"I didn't shower yesterday, I'm going to take a shower first." Jian Qiu went into the bathroom.

Zhou Andong didn't stand on ceremony; he took it and bit into it with a crunch: "Hmm, it really is very sweet."

"Sweet, right!" An Jing was very proud, "In all these years, this is the first time I've bought such a sweet apple."

Jian Qiu finished her shower, Zhou Andong rinsed off as well, and then he was kept behind again.

In the middle of the night, Zhou Andong was sleeping groggily when he felt a hot, slippery body get into his quilt. Immediately after, his mouth was blocked, and a little loach swam into his mouth.

In another room, An Jing suddenly opened her eyes. In the darkness, her gaze was somewhat desolate. After a long, long time, she cracked a smile for no reason, then let out a long sigh, pulled the quilt over her head, and whispered to herself to go to sleep.
