After three rounds of drinking, everyone had almost finished eating. A few of them stood up and walked out of the private room together.
Zhang Guangcheng said, "Everyone has been drinking. Be careful when you go back at night. If you can't drive, ask for a driver."
Several ministers smiled and agreed. Tong Jiangxin and Zhang Tong walked out side by side. Zhang Tong said, "Sister Jiang Xin, where do you live? If we are on the way, let's go together."
Tong Jiangxin was about to speak when a voice came from behind, "I'll take Miss Tong back."
Several ministers were walking in front, and suddenly they heard a voice behind them. Everyone turned around, and Zhang Guangcheng had a natural look on his face.
Something flashed across everyone's faces, but they didn't say anything. They just thought that Zhang Guangcheng felt that Tong Jiangxin had made a contribution this time.
What Tong Jiangxin saw on Zhang Guangcheng's face was calmness. In front of so many people, she couldn't refute Zhang Guangcheng's face, so she could only smile and say thank you.
Everyone left the restaurant together, Zhang Guangcheng asked for a driver, and then he and Tong Jiangxin got into the back seat.
The driver sitting in the driver's seat started the car and said, "Sir, where are you going?"
Zhang Guangcheng glanced at Tong Jiangxin, who said, "Mid-level."
She didn't give her exact address, Zhang Guangcheng didn't answer the call, and the car became very quiet for a while.
On the way from Central to Mid-Levels, Tong Jiangxin kept turning her head slightly to look at the changing scenery outside the window, but she couldn't help but be surprised in her heart. Zhang Guangcheng obviously wanted to keep a distance from her, so why did he suddenly say that he would send her back? If it was simply
Because she is the daughter of an old friend, she doesn't believe it.
Time passed by minute by second, and finally, when the car drove into the vicinity of the mid-level villa area, Tong Jiangxin said, "Please stop here."
The driver pulled over and stopped the car. Tong Jiangxin turned to Zhang Guangcheng and said, "Mr. Zhang, thank you for sending me back today. I'll go back first."
She nodded, then opened the car door and got out. At the same time, Zhang Guangcheng also got out of the car from the other side, and he called, "Jiang Xin."
Tong Jiangxin was slightly stunned because Zhang Guangcheng kept calling her Miss Tong.
Turning around to look, Zhang Guangcheng had already walked over.
"Mr. Zhang, is there anything else?"
Tong Jiangxin asked aloud with a faint smile on her face.
Zhang Guangcheng replied loudly, "Jiang Xin, just call me Uncle Zhang. This is not in the company."
Tong Jiangxin couldn't help but feel uneasy. As the saying goes, he would not go to the Three Treasures Hall if he had nothing to do. It seemed that he had something to say.
With a smile that was more warm than polite, Tong Jiang said happily, "Uncle Zhang."
Zhang Guangcheng seemed slightly surprised that Tong Jiangxin would shout so readily.
After hesitating for a moment, he seemed to hesitate and said, "Jiang Xin, Uncle Zhang said last time that he couldn't let you stay in Evergrande. Do you blame me in your heart?"
Tong Jiangxin replied, "Uncle Zhang, my father has told me since I was a child that when others help you, it depends on your feelings. If you don't help, it is justifiable. There is nothing to complain about."
When Zhang Guangcheng heard Tong Jiangxin mention Tong Haizheng, he seemed to have thought of something, but in the end he could only sigh.
He didn't speak immediately, and Tong Jiangxin stood two steps away from him, also silent.
Zhang Guangcheng was silent for a long time, then his eyes fell on Tong Jiangxin's face again, and he said, "Jiang Xin, you were taught very well by your father."
Tong Jiangxin heard the words but smiled and said nothing.
Zhang Guangcheng seemed to be hesitant to speak and was very confused.
When Tong Jiangxin saw this, she couldn't keep pretending, so she could only say, "Uncle Zhang, is there anything you want to say to me?"
Seeing that she finally took the initiative to ask, Zhang Guangcheng breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Jiang Xin, Uncle Zhang really doesn't know how to tell you about this matter..."
He really looked embarrassed. Tong Jiangxin hesitated for a moment, and then asked tentatively, "Uncle Zhang, it's Lu's side... If I can no longer work at Evergrande, just say it's okay, I will... tomorrow...
…”
There was a faint smile on her face, which did not put any pressure on Zhang Guangcheng.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Guangcheng immediately said, "No, no, don't get me wrong."
When Tong Jiangxin saw what he said, she was a little stunned. Apart from work matters, what else did Zhang Guangcheng have to be embarrassed about?
Zhang Guangcheng sighed and simply gave up. He looked at Tong Jiangxin and said, "Jiang Xin, until now, Uncle Zhang won't talk to you in any official manner. It's like this. Today I met with the second young master of the Mai family. He said bluntly
Frankly speaking, he can give the decision to Evergrande for this cooperation project with Asia Pacific, but he has a condition... He wants you to be responsible for this cooperation project."
When Zhang Guangcheng said the last sentence, he looked at Tong Jiangxin with a look that was half embarrassed and half inquiring.
Tong Jiangxin was stunned for a moment, because this was not within her scope of consideration.
Zhang Guangcheng mistakenly thought that Tong Jiangxin was angry that he used her as a bargaining chip, so he immediately said, "Jiang Xin, Uncle Zhang is telling you this, I really want to negotiate this contract. After all, you also know that with Evergrande's ability
"If you can establish a relationship with Asia Pacific, it will be very good for the company's development in the future. But if you don't want to, Uncle Zhang can't say anything."
Tong Jiangxin listened. To be honest, she really had nothing to be angry about. After all, human nature is like this. Because of Lu's suppression, Zhang Guangcheng was able to withstand the pressure and let her stay at Evergrande for a month. She was already very grateful. There was nothing to be angry about.
Resentful; at this time, for the sake of profit, he came to beg her to stay in Evergrande, which is understandable.
After a brief silence, Tong Jiangxin looked up at Zhang Guangcheng and asked, "Uncle Zhang, I really want to stay at Evergrande, but the Lu family..."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Guangcheng frowned slightly, as if he had been annoyed for a long time.
Tong Jiangxin saw all this in his eyes, and thought that Zhang Guangcheng was the most difficult one. On one side was the pressure from the Lu family, and on the other side was the huge interests of Asia Pacific. You can't have it both ways, so he had to weigh the pros and cons.
On the outskirts of the quiet Mid-Levels villa area, there was only one car parked next to the two of them. Zhang Guangcheng really hesitated for a long time, while Tong Jiangxin stood aside without making a sound, just waiting quietly.
I don’t know how long it took, maybe ten minutes, maybe more, Zhang Guangcheng finally made up his mind and made a decision. He said aloud, "How dare Mr. Lu so blatantly warn a bigger company that he is not allowed to keep you?"
It's mainly because of their status in this industry. If I give up on you this time, I won't be able to cooperate with Asia-Pacific. Then Evergrande will always be just a small player in this industry and will always be restrained by others. This time I will
Take a gamble, Jiang Xin, Evergrande needs you to stay, are you willing?"
