Tong Jiangxin didn’t know what to say. Maybe good things didn’t go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. She just wanted to be an ordinary person, commuting to and from get off work every day, and living with a salary, but she didn’t expect that since she represented Evergrande to participate in the Asia-Pacific cooperation project
, and after accidentally entering the second round, her identity as a member of the Tong family was made public. Although she didn’t know who investigated it and then spread it, in short, the people in Evergrande looked at her with three eyes.
Partly avoidant, but also extremely curious, as if she were a monkey from the zoo.
After getting off work at noon, Tong Jiangxin and Zhang Tong came to eat at a tea restaurant near Evergrande. Tong Jiangxin seemed to have something on her mind all the time. She said nothing and rarely even moved the spoon on the plate. She just quietly stirred the straw in the juice cup.
Zhang Tong, who was sitting opposite Tong Jiangxin, secretly glanced at Tong Jiangxin from time to time, as if he was hesitant to speak.
Tong Jiangxin looked outside the glass window and said casually, seemingly unintentionally, "What do you want to ask?"
Zhang Tong was so startled that he almost dropped the spoon in his hand.
Tong Jiangxin turned her head and looked at Zhang Tong, who was a little embarrassed. She said, "What are you afraid of?"
Zhang Tong smiled awkwardly and quickly said no.
Tong Jiangxin gently raised the corners of her lips and said, "You know I am a member of the Tong family."
Not a question, but a statement.
Zhang Tong looked a little strange, paused for a while, and finally nodded.
Tong Jiangxin smiled and said, "I am a member of the Tong family. Is this a strange thing for you?"
Thinking of all the recent events in the company, Tong Jiangxin felt a bit dumbfounded. Although everyone didn't say anything unpleasant, they just spread the word 'Hey, did you know? Tong Jiangxin from the negotiation department is a member of Tong's family!'.
Hearing Tong Jiangxin ask this question, the expression on Zhang Tong's face was even more wonderful, like a revolving lantern, the colors changed again and again, and then he was able to explain aloud, "Sister Jiang Xin, in fact, no one has any other meaning, it's just...
...I just feel that Ms. Tong seems so far away, and you don’t seem to be a stranger to us. Suddenly, the colleagues around us are members of the Tong family, and we always feel a little weird in our hearts."
Tong Jiangxin was slightly surprised. She asked, "Why don't I look like a normal person?"
Zhang Tong smiled and replied, "Sister Jiang Xin, to be honest, you are really a very nice person. I usually like to stick to you, but after knowing that you are a member of the Tong family, I feel that there is a huge halo surrounding you, even with you.
I feel a little apprehensive when I speak, and I think everyone may think so too.”
Fortunately, Zhang Tong was willing to tell Tong Jiangxin why everyone was acting strangely recently, otherwise she would have really thought that it was because she was a member of Tong's family that everyone was avoiding her.
Seemingly helpless, Tong Jiangxin smiled lightly and said, "Then do you think it is more important whether I am part of the Tong family, or is it more important that Tong Jiangxin is?"
Zhang Tong was stunned for a moment, then thought very seriously for a while, and then replied, "Of course the latter is more important."
Tong Jiangxin's smile widened and she replied, "That's okay."
Zhang Tong also seemed to have thought about it. She had been holding her back for the past few days. She smiled and said, "Sister Jiang Xin, you have no airs at all. It's really different from what I imagined."
Tong Jiangxin took a sip of juice and then said, "What do you imagine me to be like?"
Zhang Tong leaned back, made an artificial gesture, raised his chin slightly, twisted his orchid fingers, flicked the curry rice on the plate with a spoon, and then said in a sharp voice, "Butler, what is this? I don't know.
Can’t you eat fast food? Go get the Russian black caviar!”
Tong Jiang was delighted to see Zhang Tong's performance as a nouveau riche. She laughed out loud. She held her head with one hand and laughed for a while before replying, "Zhang Tong, I really underestimate you!"
Zhang Tong retracted his pretentious posture, leaned forward, and said with bright eyes, "Sister Jiang Xin, how are you? Do you still look like what I learned?"
Tong Jiangxin replied, "It looks like, it really looks like! You look like a nouveau riche who got rich overnight!"
Zhang Tong pursed her lips, but then smiled and replied, "Sister Jiang Xin, I haven't seen you smile so happily for several days. You look so beautiful when you smile, making even women jealous!"
Tong Jiangxin was really relieved. Maybe the people from Evergrande and the people from the Lu Group were two different species. The people from the Lu Group were cold tools for making money. When they looked at a person, they would use X-rays to look at her whole body.
Once and for all, they will find out the identity and background of the visitor in the shortest possible time, and if there is the slightest hint of trouble, they will trample on them mercilessly with the most vicious words and mentality.
But the people in Evergrande are just like ordinary people. They are interested in Tong Jiangxin simply because she is too far away from their life circle. In the past, they could only observe every detail of the Tong family from newspapers and magazines.
Yes, but now the Tong family are their colleagues, so it’s no wonder that they have been acting strangely in recent days.
After thinking about it, Tong Jiangxin suddenly felt that she was not so sad anymore. She picked up the spoon on the plate, took a few bites, and then said, "You don't have to praise me in disguise. You have to go back and do the check-in after dinner."
I will go to Asia-Pacific in a week and you will be the representative this time!"
Zhang Tong's face immediately fell, and she replied loudly, "I can't do it, Sister Jiang Xin, I'm just starting out, you can't let me take the lead!"
Tong Jiangxin just smiled and said nothing.
Maybe she had a feeling in her heart, because Zhang Guangcheng said that as long as she stayed at Evergrande, Asia Pacific would leave the final cooperation spot to them.
Thinking of McGarlo, Tong Jiangxin's eating movements slowed down a bit. She was not a fool. McGarlo showed his kindness to her frequently. She didn't know what he meant, but...
A week later, Tong Jiangxin and Zhang Tong, dressed in professional attire, stepped into the door of Asia Pacific International again, but this time there was an extra Liu Yulu.
In Zhang Tong's words, "I think Minister Liu sees that this cooperation is promising. Otherwise, how could someone like her, who is so wise and protective, get involved with us?"
Of course Tong Jiangxin also knew this truth, but Liu Yulu was the minister, so of course she participated as she said she would.
Just like now, the three of them appeared together at the door of Asia Pacific. As they walked inside, Liu Yulu said, "Jiang Xin, I will be the representative in a moment. If you think there is anything that has not been mentioned, please give me a hint."
”.
Tong Jiangxin smiled lightly and replied, "Okay."
Zhang Tong stood next to Tong Jiangxin and pursed his lips without leaving any trace.
The three of them walked into the lobby and walked directly to the elevator. The elevator was about to close, but suddenly opened. Li Mingyang stood in front of the head. He smiled at Tong Jiangxin and said, "Jiang Xin."
