Qiao Sisi did not reject her further and nodded solemnly. “Thank you, CEO Xiang.”
“It’s fine. Go back to your work.”
Xiang Jinyu was rarely so gentle. Qiao Sisi looked at Zheng Ze gratefully and left the office.
Only Zheng Zeyi and Xiang Jinyu were left in the huge office. The atmosphere gradually turned cold.
Zheng Ze poured a cup of tea and took a sip. “It seems like you value her more than me.”
There was no doubt in his voice, only certainty.
Xiang Jinyu did not retort. She flipped through the documents in her hand and did not speak for a long time. There was only the sound of pages being flipped.
“The reason is simple. I can see my previous self in her.”
…
Qiao Sisi left the office and went to the cafeteria to get her lunch box. She ate at her desk, unwilling to waste any time.
She was lucky to be valued. Now she had to work hard.
The company’s junior assistant must have received Xiang Jinyu’s order to walk over to Qiao Sisi with a document.
“Sisi, your documents.” The junior assistant was a young girl who handed the documents to Qiao Sisi with a smile.
Qiao Sisi took the document and smiled brightly. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome. Get to know each other better. After all, this is your first business trip,” the junior assistant reminded her.
Qiao Sisi looked through the documents briefly. There was not much content. As it was still working hours, she put the documents in her bag, intending to read them after work.
There were a few colleagues in the office who were in the midst of writing a script over lunch. The room was very quiet.
“Creak…”
The door to Xiang Jinyu’s office opened and Zheng Zeyi strode out in his long legs. He seemed to be in a good mood as they conversed about something.
When Qiao Sisi saw who it was, she put down her bowl and chopsticks.
“What is it?”
Zheng Zeyi stopped in his tracks and placed his key in Qiao Sisi’s hand. He said, “I’ll be going away for a few days. This is for safekeeping.”
His deep voice entered his ears. If he had voice control, she would have been immersed in it long ago.
Unfortunately, Qiao Sisi was not. Furthermore, her relationship with Zheng Zeyi was very awkward, and Yang Yueyue stood between them.
Holding the key in her hand, Qiao Sisi suddenly asked, “Are you going on a business trip?”
As soon as she finished speaking, she regretted blurting out that she suddenly cared about him. This was not a good way to be grateful.
Zheng Zeyi put on his signature evil smile and pinched Qiao Sisi’s cheek. “It’s a secret.”
After saying that, Zheng Zeyi did not stay any longer and left Jinyu Corporation quickly.
Qiao Sisi looked at his slender back and touched her face. She pursed her lips and put the key in her bag.
Well, she would just keep the key for two days.
Zheng Zeyi had done her a big favor. It was only right for her to do so. She would find another chance to thank him.
Qiao Sisi consoled herself and looked at the documents on the computer again.
Time flew by and it was soon time to get off work.
When Qiao Sisi returned to the apartment, Zheng Zeyi was indeed not at home. The apartment was absolutely empty.
She cooked dinner for herself. After eating, she made a cup of tea and brought it to the living room. She also brought the document that the junior assistant had given her today.
After reading it, she had a better understanding of the business trip.
This business trip was to Yunqi, a very famous stone-gambling place.
The reason for going there was because many rare gems could be found inside the unremarkable stones there…
These gems were raw materials that were made into jewelry. Gold and silver were not the only things that could be made into jewelry.
What Qiao Sisi wanted to do was follow the main group to these places to acquire some gems that the company needed. Other than that, she could also look at some local crafts.
Fantastic.
Qiao Sisi gave herself a thumbs up. It was really a good opportunity. Looking at so much information on a computer could not compare to seeing it with her own eyes or trying it out with her own hands.
Excitedly, Qiao Sisi called her good friend Chen Anna and reported the good news.
“Oh my god, Yunqi! Sisi, this is a good opportunity.” Chen Anna sounded indescribably happy.
“I’ll definitely make good use of the opportunity given to me by CEO Xiang,” Qiao Sisi said as she closed the document. Fortunately, she did not reject her in the morning. She would regret it for a long time if she missed this opportunity.
On the other end of the phone, Chen Anna smiled mischievously. “Sisi, don’t you think Zheng Zeyi is going out of his way to treat you well?”
Hearing this, Qiao Sisi frowned.
She did not quite agree with Chen Anna. It’s unrealistic for me to think that a rich kid like him would like me.
“Anna, I’ll find a chance to thank him for helping me, but we are worlds apart. We should not be talking about affection,” Qiao Sisi said earnestly.
Chen Anna understood what she meant and did not say anything else.
The two of them chatted for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, they hung up and went to rest.
On the floor of Qiao Sisi’s room was a silver suitcase containing some clothes and skincare products. There was nothing else.
Although they were leaving in three days, it was better to make preparations in advance to ensure that everything was complete.
The luggage was brought by Qiao Sisi when she arrived at Zheng Zeyi’s apartment a few days ago. It was just nice for the rest of the trip.
Hmm… Put the design drafts in too.
Qiao Sisi glanced at her own design draft on the table and placed it in a separate file in her suitcase
Perhaps this industry could make up for some of the deficiencies in the Deep Sea series.
The day of departure arrived very quickly. Ever since Zheng Zeyi said that he was going on a business trip, he did not appear in the apartment again.
Qiao Sisi had been living alone these past few days.
Just as Qiao Sisi was about to leave, Chen Anna called. She sounded reluctant. “Sisi, be careful and stay safe. If you see any local products over there, bring some back for me.”
So, the last sentence was the main point.
Qiao Sisi’s lips curled up as she said, “Don’t worry. Work hard. I’ll call you when I get there.”
With that, she hung up and put her phone in her pocket before leaving the apartment with her suitcase.
There was an unending flow of vehicles on the road. Qiao Sisi wiped the sweat on her forehead and waved for a taxi.
“Driver, Jinyu Company.” Qiao Sisi took out some cash from her pocket and placed it on the front passenger seat.
The driver said happily, “Alright.”
It was morning rush hour and traffic was a little congested. Fortunately, the taxi arrived at its destination on time.
After thanking the driver, Qiao Sisi picked up her luggage and walked towards the office.
