Cinderella Innocent and Boss Charming - Chapter 434
Chapter 434 doesn’t like to owe favors
When Du Xiaoxian woke up, there was a kind of bewilderment of not knowing where she was, this is not home, where is it? She rubbed her eyes, braced herself to sit up, once she looked down, she was startled, on her body was actually a white bathrobe, seeing this bathrobe, she did somewhat understand, this is in the hotel room.
But how could she have slept in a hotel? Her head ached, and her memory felt like it had suddenly snapped, so she couldn’t remember.
She lifted the covers, got out of bed and shuffled into her slippers, walked over and opened the curtains, the sunlight flooding in and filling the room.
Du Xiaoxian suddenly remembered something, hurriedly picked up the cell phone on the bedside table to see, could not help but ah ah, eleven o’clock past ten, actually almost noon, she did not get up so late on weekends, this is what happened?
Rush to find their own clothes, but there is nowhere, only in the single sofa across the bed on a new set of clothes, even the price tag has not been removed, looks like it is for her.
Du Xiaoxian suspiciously picked up the clothes and compared them, the size was just right, although this was not self, but she couldn’t wear a bathrobe to go out, after hesitating for a while, she still changed into it.
Outside the door, she recruited a taxi and went straight to the company, a morning’s time was wasted like this, what about all her work that was piling up? What about all the work she had piled up? It looked like she was going to have to work late into the night again tonight.
While sitting in the car, the memories slowly returned to her mind, she remembered that last night, she negotiated a contract with Mr. Gao of Shengquan, she was drunk but the contract was negotiated, then … Cheng Rui Chang let her sit in the car, then … she vomited… …Thinking of this, Du Xiaoxian covered her own mouth in horror, God, she threw up in Cheng Ruichang’s car! Cheng Ruizhang should not know where her home is, so he sent her to the hotel and had someone change her clothes.
She soiled Cheng Rui Chang s car, and he still took care of her so well, it s really … Du Xiaoxian wiped the sweat that came out of her forehead and thought about meeting later, whether she should take the initiative to mention the compensation.
Back to the company, out of the elevator, she hesitantly, first went to the general manager’s office, the secretary Mary saw her, got up to greet, said Mr. Cheng is not in, went out to eat. Du Xiaoxian was relieved to hear that, and hurried back to her office. Meng Zi He was also not there, presumably the two had arranged to go out to dinner together.
Thinking of eating, Du Xiaoxian also felt a little hungry, although not much appetite, but people are iron, rice is steel, a meal is not eaten hunger panic, she has been hungry, know that taste, so no longer have an appetite, but also reluctantly self to eat a little, pick up the phone to order a meal, and then began to work.
I don’t know how long it took, but when I heard someone knocking on the door, Du Xiaoxian thought it was a delivery person, so she answered, “Please come in.”
Unexpectedly the one who came in was Cheng Rui Chang, Du Xiaoxian was immediately a little embarrassed, like a child who did something wrong, scratching her hair and giggling, “It’s you.”
Cheng Rui Chang smiled and asked, “Who do you think it is?”
“I thought it was a delivery guy.”
Cheng Rui Chang frowned, “Eating takeout again? Why don’t you eat at the hotel before coming over.”
When he mentioned this, Du Xiaoxian’s face brushed red, “Mr. Cheng, I’m really sorry for giving you trouble last night.”
“It’s nothing,” Cheng Rui Chang said, “You don’t have to take it to heart.”
Du Xiaoxian handed over the money in the envelope, blushing, “This, for you.”
Cheng Rui Zhang took it and squeezed it, “What is it?”
Du Xiaoxian said quickly, “It’s money for clothes, a hotel stay, and a car wash.”
Cheng Ruizhang hit the envelope to look at, but is not polite to receive, jokingly said, “Give me I want, but it seems to give more, more also have no return, when it is hard work!” And said, “You just went to find me is for this?”
Du Xiaoxian nodded.
Cheng Rui Chang then said, “You don’t like to owe favors.”
Another knock came from the doorway, this time it was Meng Zi He, she didn’t come in, she only poked her head in, “Xiao Xian, did you order takeout?”
Du Xiaoxian said, “Yes, bring it in quickly, I’m still really hungry.”
Meng Zi He retracted his head back, but it was only a moment before he came in with takeout, placed it on the small round table by the window, and opened it with his hands and feet, “Why haven’t you eaten yet? Thought you would have eaten before coming to the office.”
Du Xiaoxian remembered that she hadn’t come in the morning and hadn’t told Meng Zihe, and was a little embarrassed, but didn’t want her to know about Self’s drunkenness, so she squealed.
Cheng Rui Chang saw that she was going to eat and went out with a greeting.
Du Xiaoxian usually didn’t pay attention to it, but now she could see it somewhat, and when Cheng Ruizhang’s figure disappeared in the doorway, she said, “Did you and Mr. Cheng have a disagreement?”
Meng Zi He snorted, “Where do I have a quarrel with him?”
Du Xiaoxian didn’t hear the good and bad of this sentence for a moment and said, “It’s good that you didn’t have a falling out, Mr. Cheng is a good person, and he’s quite a match for you.”
Menzies He sat in his chair, picking at the food with a toothpick and bringing it to his mouth, “How do you know he’s good?”
“I can read,” Du Xiaoxian said, “I can read people quite accurately.”
Menzies He snorted again, “I just don’t see what’s so nice about him.”
Du Xiaoxian took a big mouthful of rice into her mouth and said vaguely, “Mr. Cheng is really good, you’re right to listen to me.”
Meng Zi He, however, smiled faintly and continued to pick vegetables to eat.
Cheng Ruizhang is good, no one up and down the company said he is not good, elegant, humorous, treating people kindly, although it is not a son of the world, but the general manager of the listed company identity, but also enough to attract the eyes of many girls.
Unfortunately, after getting along with him, she realized that his elegance, humor, and affinity for people had nothing to do with herself, and what she saw was only cold indifference, and a sense of detachment. But this has a fatal temptation to her! Let her like a moth on fire in general, in the pain of struggling to fall but willing to enjoy.
Du Xiaoxian had come over in the past few months, stumbling and chaotic, but it had been a surprise, and everything in the company was running on track.
But the heavens probably didn’t think she’d suffered enough, and just as she breathed a sigh of relief, there came a piece of bad news, which Cheng Ruichang personally came to tell her, “Mrs. Gu, we’re only afraid that we’ve been cheated on the Shengquan project.”
In fact, Du Xiaoxian already had a bad feeling when she saw him walk in with a sullen face, and when she heard him say this, she was so shocked that she stood up at once, “What’s going on? The company’s payment has already been made!”
“Because of this,” said Cheng Ruizhang, “I made the first payment after signing the contract, and last week I said that I had already explored the oil field, which was more than predicted, and I needed to make additional funds, so I made the second payment. Two days ago, I talked to a friend about this project, my friend said Shengquan is a purse company, specializing in using the project to cheat money, I don’t believe it, yesterday, I asked a friend in the northwest to go to do the field to understand, my friend said that there is no such thing as an oil field, there is a piece of the Gobi Desert, and there is not a person to see, and even less to see what drilling and exploration equipment. When I heard that, I knew it was bad, but I haven’t called the police yet. Wanted to come to discuss with you to see what to do?”
Du Xiaoxian heart sank, fell back into the chair, look dumbfounded, how did she know what to do ah, a mind to do the project well, how do you know it is a scam? Obviously, she had checked online, didn’t she say that the industry has a good reputation? The high general manager also looks like they don’t care, how to look like a liar ah!
“Call the other side no.” Du Xiaoxian asked.
“No, I’m afraid of spooking them.”
Du Xiaoxian tried hard to remember dealing with Shengquan, still couldn’t believe it, all those oil fields, technical terms, energy development, the other party talked about it, sounded so professional, how could it be fake?
“I’m to blame for this, I’m the one who brought in the program and I recommended it without doing a thorough investigation.”
“I don’t blame you, you also objected to it in the beginning, it was me who was bent on doing it,” Du Xiao Xian was messed up, but quickly adjusted her mindset, knowing that now is not the time to discuss who should be responsible. She thought for a moment and said, “Don’t let the wind out for now, you personally go over there, maybe it’s just a misunderstanding.”
“Okay, Mrs. Gu, I’ll get up right away,” Cheng Rui Chang said, “I’ll be working hard for you in the company.”
“Don’t worry about the company, call me first thing when you get things straightened out.”
Cheng Rui Chang nodded, “Okay, I’ll leave now.” He looked at Du Xiaoxian’s sad face and comforted again, “Don’t worry, maybe it’s really just a misunderstanding.”
Of course, Du Xiaoxian hoped that this was the case, but the cruel fact gave her a blow, Shengquan is really a skin company, forging a bright image to the outside world, but in fact, there is nothing. When Cheng Ruizhang rushed over there, not to mention the oil field, even the company located in the busy area has long been empty.
Since things are already like this, Du Xiaoxian advocates calling the police, but Cheng Ruizhang is against it, saying that the company’s military is unstable, and many directors have always held objections to Du Xiaoxian’s sitting on Gu’s board of directors, as well as external rivals who are eyeing Gu’s, and will surely take the opportunity to fall on the well. Although the company lost a large amount of money, but this matter can only be trivialized.
Du Xiaoxian, however, felt that such a large sum of money, how can you just throw it in the water and not want it? And wrong is wrong, she never shuns responsibility and insists on calling the police.
Cheng Ruizhang couldn’t persuade her, so he had to let her go.
Du Xiaoxian’s idea is very simple, admit the mistake, learn a lesson, recover the money to reduce the loss, this matter is over. But what she could not have imagined was that things would really develop in the way Cheng Ruizhang feared.
Once the matter is public, the first thing is that the board of directors of the gang of old guys to make trouble, they are all Gu’s ranking shareholders, have long been on Gu Guangxian Gu’s hand over nothing to Du Xiaoxian quite a bit, bent on pulling her pigtails, and now captured such a big handle, can not be easily let go.
Although Du Xiaoxian was still the acting president and also presided over the meeting, that class of old guys didn’t even put her in their eyes, clamoring, slapping the table and hitting the chair, one after another, they turned on her.
Du Xiaoxian was outnumbered and almost drowned by everyone’s saliva, but the more this kind of time, the more she was able to carry things on the contrary, Meng Zihe had been looking at her worriedly, afraid that she would not be able to stand it and cry out on the spot, but Du Xiaoxian appeared to be very calm, she was just sitting there quietly, with her eyebrows lowered and her eyes lowered, as if she was listening.
When the directors saw her like this, they quieted down, and the representative, Mr. You Mingliang, spoke. He sold half of his shares to Jiang Kaiwei last time, but it didn’t affect his status as the second largest shareholder, and he still owns twelve percent of the shares in his hands. He actually has feelings for Gu, so last time Jiang Kaiwei wanted to buy all the shares in his hand, he did not agree, only sold half, he still hopes that Gu is in the hands of the Gu family, and also think that Gu Nianbin has taken care of Gu quite well.
But now Gu’s is not Gu Nianbin presided over, replaced by Du Xiaoxian, this woman does not know anything, did not read a lot of books, not to mention the experience of doing business, Gu’s handed over to her hands, sooner or later, is to be finished, which relates to the immediate interests of all shareholders of Gu’s, as Gu’s second-largest shareholder, of course, he is duty-bound to come forward to speak.
When Gu’s group was leaderless, he had suggested to Gu Guangxian to hand over Gu’s to a powerful company for trusteeship until Gu’s family found a suitable person to take over, but Gu Guangxian disagreed and insisted on Du Xiaoxian’s ascension to the throne.
Facts proved that Gu Guangxian’s decision was wrong, Du Xiaoxian was in his position, not only did he not make the company’s business grow, but he made wrong decisions that caused losses to the company, he firmly demanded that Du Xiaoxian step down and reelect a strong candidate. If Gu Guangxian did not agree to the trusteeship, then the shareholders would elect a capable person to manage Gu.
