Chapter 23
After returning last night, Rongshu was in a bad mood and drank until midnight, she hadn’t slept long before she was awakened by the phone ringing.
She slowed down, fished her phone from the bedside table and answered it, “Hello?”
“Mr. Rong, this is Tong Xi.”
Hearing the other party blurt out her own name, Rong Shu was quite awake and quickly remembered.
This person turned out to be the secretary beside Lu Qi, Lu Qi was afraid that after she entered Tiansheng, she would have no one of her own beside her, so she gave her secretary to herself.
“What is it?” Rongshu asked, walking towards the bathroom as she did so.
Secretary Tong said, “Because Mr. Duan has gone on a business trip, there are a few urgent documents that need you to come to the company to deal with, what time should you come to the company?”
Rong Shu reckoned that the matter was urgent and looked at the time on her mobile phone, “Around eight thirty.”
“Okay.”
After she hung up the phone, Rong Shu washed her face with cold water and finally felt more comfortable, only that she had drunk too much wine last night and her head still hurt.
After washing up, when she came out of the bedroom and saw the messy living room, Rong Shu’s lips pursed a little harder.
She had really gone crazy last night, drinking so heavily.
By the time Rong Shu drove to the company, it was exactly half past eight, and she entered the office and sat down before Secretary Tong came in.
“Mr. Rong, this is an urgent document that needs to be signed.”
“Good.”
Not only was Rong Shu a new shareholder of Tiansheng, she was also a vice-president, with executive power and the right to speak, and she could handle many things with full authority if the president was not around.
As she opened the documents to explore, she asked her secretary, “Has the contract between Tiansheng and Zongshi been signed?”
When Lu Qi sent her back last night, he mentioned that Tiansheng had received an overseas order and would give the goods to Zongshi, a factory in China that was very good at making overseas goods.
Since this overseas order would be compensated for not being shipped within the time frame, Rongshu was concerned.
“The contract was to be signed at nine o’clock this morning, but Zongshi has backtracked.” The secretary reported to Rongshu helplessly, “Zongshi said that their old customer added an order, so they couldn’t help us with that batch of goods, so they won’t sign the contract.”
“No more contracts?” Rongshu frowned and fished out the phone, “I’ll call Lu Qi and ask him to talk to the other party.”
The secretary was busy saying, “Mr. Rong, don’t call, Director Lu was supposed to go to Zongshi this morning to talk to them commercially, but after taking a call, he told me that he had something to deal with at his company and would deal with the Zongshi contract when he returned.”
At those words, Rong Shu stopped turning on her phone.
Having been married to Fu Jingting for six years, she had become a full-time wife and knew nothing about shopping.
After becoming a new shareholder of Tiansheng, Rong Shu also asked Lu Qi to help her because she knew that the company was failing and the internal factions were too complicated for her to handle on her own.
She was so focused on asking Lu Qi to help her that she almost forgot that Lu Qi had his own company and had a lot of things to deal with.
Seeing that Rong Shu was hesitant to speak, the secretary spoke up, “Then, Mr. Rong, I’ll go down first?”
“You check for me, Boss Zongshi’s itinerary for today.” After taking a deep breath, Rong Shu instructed her secretary, “Tell me when you find out, I’ll take care of these documents first.”
The secretary froze, “Didn’t Director Lu say to wait for him to return to deal with them?”
“He’s busy too, I can’t wait for him to deal with everything.” Rongshu pursed her lips, “Besides, when I sit in this position, I have to learn what I don’t know, otherwise I’ll be scolded down before my butt is even warm.”
The secretary also often read all kinds of gossip in the circle, and knew that Rongshu had been married to Fu Jingting for six years, and Fu Jingting never took Rongshu to various business receptions, and Rongshu was a business novice.
She did not have any hope for Rongshu to take over Tiansheng and planned to return to Lu Qi’s company when Tiansheng closed down.
But Rong Shu’s words today made the secretary think otherwise of her.
“Okay, Mr. Rong, you’re busy, I’ll go check it out.” The secretary quickly left the office, leaving Rong Shu alone with her busy schedule.
As she had only just come into contact with these things, and as there was quite a lot of technical vocabulary in the documents, Rongshu was very slow in reading them, and only managed to deal with a third of them by noon, and then proceeded to deal with the rest after hastily eating the lunch brought by the secretary.
It was only at 2.30 pm that she finished all the documents.
Rubbing her sore neck, Rongshu saw her mobile phone light up on the table and it seemed to have a new WeChat, so she opened it to check.
Li Chuan: Sister, the company has arranged a job for me, and I need to go to Bourbon on a business trip for two months, because of the time difference, I can’t reply to your messages in time, if you encounter urgent matters, please call the number I left you.
Rongshu: I know, you should also be safe abroad.
When Rongshu returned the message, a message popped up at the top of the screen that her certain bank card had arrived, and when she scanned the amount, her eyes widened slightly.
Ninety million?
Had Lu Qi already sold the Zhanlan Heart?
At that moment, Li Chuan’s WeChat came again: I know Tian Sheng is in a bad situation and needs liquidity, you can use this money first, tell me if it’s not enough.
I can’t ask for your money.
Li Chuan replied quickly: six years ago, if you had not helped me, there would not be the person I am now.
Seeing this from him, Rong Shu’s heart warmed and she didn’t refuse any more.
Rongshu: It was agreed, this money counts as your loan to Tiansheng, when Tiansheng gets up, the money will be returned to you with interest.
At that moment, there was a knock on the office door.
“Come in.”
The secretary pushed the door in, holding a box of fruits in her arms, “Mr. Rong, this is from the dispatcher of Four Seasons Orchard.”
After saying this, the secretary quietly glanced at Rong Shu and saw that Rong Shu was smiling lightly, seemingly very happy, secretly thinking: does Mr. Rong know who sent this fruit?
Rongshu lifted the box and saw that inside was a box full of mangoes.
After being surprised, she quickly thought that Lu Qi often sent food to her and knew what she liked to eat, so she guessed that Lu Qi had bought them from the orchard.
Rongshu moved her eyes away from the box of mangoes and asked her secretary, “Have you found out where the boss of Zongshi is?”
“I found out.” The secretary replied, “It happens to be Friday today, and the boss of Zongshi, Mr. Song, and his friends went to the Red Plum Villa to play poker at 2pm, I’ve sent you the address on WeChat.”
“Good.” Rong Shu got up, took her coat and put it on, “When Tian Sheng’s financial situation improves, I will give you a salary increase.”
“Thank you, General Manager Rong.” The secretary’s heart was overjoyed.
Remembering that there was a rainstorm today, the secretary chased after her to ask Rong Shu to bring an umbrella, but she found that Rong Shu had already entered the lift, and her gossip-loving colleagues had gathered around her.
The colleague asked anxiously and gossipingly, “Secretary Tong, when Mr. Rong saw the box of mangoes, he didn’t say anything?”
“Just opened the box and looked at it.” The secretary stretched her hands and was quite puzzled, “Even the company cleaners know about Mr. Fu and Mr. Rong, how come Mr. Fu still has people send fruits to Tiansheng even though the two of them are divorced?”
“Could it be that after the divorce, Mr. Fu regretted it?”
“How could that be! Who in the circle doesn’t know that Mr. Fu likes Ms. Gu Manyin, he even proposed to her with the Heart of Blue!”
“Maybe Mr. Fu thinks that after the divorce, both sides can still be partners?”
“Our company is going out of business and no one is willing to buy it, so Mr. Fu is even less interested in it!”
“……”
Chapter 24
On the way to the Red Plum Villa, it suddenly started to rain, and it was getting heavier and heavier.
When she arrived at Red Plum Villa, there was no space in the underground garage, so she had to park in the open car park. When she got out of the car, she found that there was no umbrella in the car, so she put her bag over her head and gritted her teeth as she rushed into the rain.
The pathway was very close to the lobby, but because of the heavy rain, Rong Shu was still soaked, and her body was shivering when the cold wind blew.
When the waiter saw Rong Shu, he immediately brought a towel.
“Thank you.” Rong Shu took the towel and wiped her hair while telling the waiter, “It’s Friday, business should be good, right? Are Mr. Song and the others still playing cards in that original private room?”
When the waiter saw what Rong Shu said, he thought she was a friend of Mr. Song’s, “Yes, room 1103 is always reserved for Mr. Song.”
The corners of Rong Shu’s mouth curled up slightly as she succeeded in getting the message.
After the waiter left, Rong Shu went to the front desk and ordered a pot of top quality Bi Luo Chun and dim sum.
On her first foot, she carried her plate towards the private room, and on her second foot, the gla*s door was pushed open and several men stepped in.
When Fu Jingting looked up, his eyes inadvertently skimmed over the row of private rooms and saw a woman pushing open the door of one of the private rooms to enter, her back slender and slender.
That back was very similar to Rong Shu ……
“Mr. Fu?” The man next to him saw Fu Jingting stop in his tracks and asked carefully, “What’s wrong?”
Fu Jingting withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, “Nothing.”
Rongshu did not know that Fu Jingting had also come here, and with a smile on her face, she carried the tea into the private room.
Rongshu swept over and saw four men sitting at a mahjong table in a cla*sical style room, playing mahjong and chatting at the same time, so comfortable, with two of the old bosses accompanied by young girls.
She had read the information on Zongshi before and quickly found the boss of Zongshi, Mr Liang, from among the four men and walked over, “Mr Liang.”
Mr. Liang, who was playing cards, only gave Rong Shu a sideways glance, “Hey, you are?”
“I’m Rong Shu from Tiansheng Company.” Rong Shu placed the tea, and snacks on the small table, while smiling.
“I came here this afternoon to meet a friend, he had played poker with you before and praised you for your good poker skills, I thought that our two families also have cooperation, so I came to say hello to you, I didn’t disturb you and your bosses, right?”
Mr. Liang said, “Oh, I’m not disturbing you and your bosses, are I?” The man sitting on the south side of the mahjong table asked, “Is your father Rong Hao?”
“Yes.”
“I know your father well, I’ve had mahjong dates before, your father is very good at mahjong.” The man said, sweeping Rong Shu from top to bottom, his gaze cryptic.
Rongshu ignored the uncomfortable gaze and smiled back, “Yes, my dad is really good at mahjong to be able to play with you, Mr. Yue.”
The two chatted just as a round of mahjong was finished.
He got up and waved at Rong Shu, “My back hurts a bit after a round, so you can play for me, niece.”
Rongshu looked embarra*sed, “Mr. Yue, I don’t know how to play mahjong.”
“Your father is so good at mahjong, how bad can you be?” The man continued to beckon, “Come here, if you really don’t know how to play, I will teach you.”
Mr. Liang also spoke up, “You play for Mr. Yue, if you really don’t want to play, go out, don’t spoil the fun.”
“……” Rongshu heard the dissatisfaction in Mr. Liang’s words.
Today’s Tiansheng is faltering, the capitalists are disgusted and refuse to buy it, Zongshi also expected that Tiansheng that batch of overseas goods, only his family can do, Rongshu must have asked him, the attitude is so arrogant.
She had come here today to beg Zhongsi, so she had to suffer any grievances.
The hand of Rongshu that was squeezing the bag was suddenly released again, and she got up and went to sit at Mr. Yue’s place with a light smile, “If Mr. Yue doesn’t mind, I’ll play a round for you, the loss is mine, the winnings are yours.”
Only then did Mr. Yue smile in satisfaction and sat down next to Rong Shu, patting her on the shoulder, “Don’t be afraid, uncle will teach you.”
Rongshu tilted her body to the other side, not moving to avoid Mr. Yue’s hand.
Soon a new round was played.
Yue scanned Rongshu’s cards, which were in a mess, and saw that she was not really able to play as she had just thrown her cards in, so he did not squeal and lecture her, but chatted with Liang, his hand always resting unintentionally on the back of Rongshu’s chair.
Even with Rong Shu around, several of the bosses spoke with impunity, talking about everything and occasionally with a few yellow accents.
As they talked, the topic turned to Rongshu’s marriage to Fu Jingting.
The president of the company, Yue, knowingly asked, “How did you and Mr. Fu get divorced, niece? Splitting several hundred million of Mr. Fu’s property?”
“The relationship didn’t work out, so we divorced.” Rongshu’s lips pursed tightly, quickly returned, “Fu’s is Mr. Fu’s a*sets, how am I qualified to share, divorce net out of the family.”
“Mr. Fu is also too bad at being a man.” Yue said regretfully, and looked at Rong Shu with impunity, “You at least slept with him for six years, divorced, not even a little compensation for you.”
Rong Shu laughed coldly in her heart.
He was too good at it, he only had Gu Manyin in his heart and had been married for six years and had never touched her.
She could be laughed at by everyone if this was told.
Rongshu suppressed the emotion and smiled back at Mr. Yue: “I don’t have nothing, I still have my father’s company, Tiansheng, and you and my father are old friends.
Mr. Yue laughed loudly, “Okay, you have asked for help, how can I not help you?”
Rongshu’s poker skills were really bad, and she was getting hustled every time.
Before the round was over, the pile of cash she had taken out of her bag was at the bottom.
She had gotten a little wet in the rain when she arrived and her thin jumper was half-wet. In addition, in the private room, the men were all smoking and the window was wide open, so the cold wind was pouring in.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public, such as the Internet, the Internet, and the Internet.
“Niece, your hands are too cold.” As he said this, Mr. Yue took the opportunity to touch Rongshu’s hand twice more.
Rongshu tried to pull her hand back, but Mr. Yue held it down tightly.
Mr. Yue leaned closer to Rongshu and said to her coaxingly, “Mr. Fu doesn’t know how to hurt people, but Uncle does, so if you need anything, just ask Uncle.
Rongshu was already uncomfortable, and as soon as she smelled the smell of smoke and sweat on him, her stomach turned over.
From the moment she came in, she couldn’t bear it any longer.
Rongshu pulled her hand out hard and moved her chair, her tone cold, “Mr. Yue, it’s not good for me to play my cards like this.”
Mr. Yue was stunned, then his face sank and he said angrily, “What’s wrong with you, niece? I was trying to put in a good word with Mr. Liang to help your company, and you’re throwing me off?”
“You’re not trying to help me, you want me to sleep with you.” Rongshu lifted his hypocrite’s mask.
“Just your company, there’s no money to save it, it’s only a matter of time before it closes down.” Mr. Yue laughed coldly, “You’re really pathetic too, you’ve been married to Mr. Fu for six years and he didn’t even help you save Tiansheng.”
Mr. Yue spoke more and more recklessly, “Tell me, where else can you get contacts and money to save Tiansheng from now, besides showing off your beauty?”
“……”
Rong Shu’s hand had already grabbed the teapot on the small table and was just about to smash Mr. Yue’s head open and break the pot.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and then it was pushed open.
Mr Liang was about to throw Rong Shu out when he looked up and saw the long silhouette at the door and immediately stood up from his chair.
“Mr. Fu.”
