Chapter 232   - Smart responses

He waited in the reception room for over an hour before he heard footsteps coming from the door.

He Mei Xin immediately sat up straight and looked outside.

He saw an old man in his fifties, whose face was covered in oil and smiles, walking in from outside the door, "Aiya, I’m sorry to keep you waiting here, Miss He. The meeting is really too busy. "

Seeing that, He Mei Xin immediately stood up and said politely: "Hello, Wu Dong."

At this time, Wu Ying Tian’s eyes sized He Mei Xin up from top to bottom, and then laughed, "You’re welcome. Come, Miss He, let’s talk in my office."

Hearing that, He Mei Xin followed him out of the reception room, towards the chairman’s office at the side.

The two of them entered the office one after the other. The secretary brought them some coffee and went out. She even closed the door behind her.

"Wu Dong, I’ve come today for ..." After He Mei Xin sat on the sofa, she went straight to the point and prepared to explain her purpose in coming here.

Wu Ying Tian walked over to the wine cabinet, opened a bottle of wine, poured two cups, interrupting her, "Miss He’s performance that night was truly shocking, it is rare to see a woman who can drink as much as you do in Miss He. It’s a pity that I didn’t have the chance to drink with you, Miss He. Since Miss He is here today, let’s take this opportunity to make up for the regret we had that day. "

As he spoke, he walked to her side and sat down next to her, passing one of the cups to her.

Seeing this, He Mei Xin suddenly had a bad premonition.

She reached out her hand and slightly blocked his view, "I’m sorry, Wu Dong, I came here today to talk about work with you. As for drinking, can you call me whenever you have time, and I’ll drink with you again?"

Just as she said that, Wu Ying Tian’s face darkened, he shook his head: "Seems like the Miss He does not give me any face."

"No, Dong, you misunderstand." He Mei Xin hurriedly shook her head, but in her heart, she was already filled with loathing towards this old man.

"Misunderstanding? "Then let’s have a drink first. It’s not too late to talk about work later." As Wu Ying Tian said this, his eyes continued to glance at her exposed calves.

When He Mei Xin saw his somewhat exposed eyes, she felt nauseous in his heart.

His skirt reached right to his knees. It was a very formal professional dress, neither too long nor too short. The style was also very standard. Generally speaking, it wouldn’t give others any negative psychological hints.

However, Wu Ying Tian’s taste was unique, and he started to regret that she did not listen to Qian Jun’s advice and changed into a new pair of pants.

Some money really can’t be saved.

Looking at the glass of wine that Wu Ying Tian had given her, she knew that if she did not accept it, she would not be able to sign the contract today. When she looked back at Huo Jia Bao, she would not be able to answer to him.

She also understood why Huo Jia Bao made her sign the contract. He had only dug a hole for her to jump into.

However, even though she knew it was a trap, she had no choice but to jump in.

She was very clear about her current predicament. In this era, it was difficult to find work, and if she could not keep this job, it would be too embarrassing for her to lick her face and ask Huo Xi Wen to arrange another one for her.

Gritting her teeth, she raised her head and looked at Wu Ying Tian, "Wu Dong, after drinking this cup of wine, are you willing to talk about work with me?"

"Of course." Wu Ying Tian smiled hypocritically, agreeing on the surface.

He Mei Xin knew that she could not avoid this cup of wine, luckily, she was not satisfied with the wine being poured, so she only had half a cup left.

"Miss He sure has a good tolerance for alcohol. The secretary by Hutong’s side is really capable." "Come on, let’s have another drink." Wu Ying Tian said, as he took the cup from He Mei Xin’s hand, about to pour her another.

Hearing that, He Mei Xin knew that he was going to go back on his word, and immediately said: Wu Dong, we have a deal, I’ve drank a cup, and we can talk about work.

"Is that so? As the saying goes, good things come in pairs. Since you’re only drinking one cup, you should at least drink two cups. " Wu Ying Tian purposely lost his memories and poured another cup for her, "This cup, once you finish drinking, I will sign the contract."

At this time, He Mei Xin could not believe his words, "Wu Dong, as the chairman of a listed company, your words should count, right? We agreed to have a drink. If you pour another cup, how would I know if there’s another cup waiting for me after I finish it? "

Wu Ying Tian never thought that she would directly expose him, his face immediately darkened. "Miss He’s words mean that you don’t trust me anymore?"

"That’s not it, I just heard our Hutong talk about you, and said that you are a righteous man with words, he originally wanted to ask Money Assistant to come over to discuss the contract, but since I have nothing to do with it, I took the initiative to come over to your place, and thought that after working together with Bao Jie for so many years, it should be easy to sign the contract. Wu Dong shouldn’t be making things difficult for me. " He Mei Xin started to use Huo Jia Bao as a shield.

"Are you saying that you took the initiative to come here today, and that your Hutong didn’t send you here?" Hearing that, Wu Ying Tian’s expression became complicated.

He Mei Xin nodded, "That’s right, oh, right, before I left, Money Assistant even told me to call him if there’s any problems. He probably worried that I might not know the details of the contract, so he might not be able to explain it to you."

When she said this, Wu Ying Tian unconsciously stepped back a bit, and her face immediately revealed a gentle smile, "Haha, look at me, the moment I see Miss He, I can’t help but think of that night’s grand feat, and I couldn’t help but want to drink a few more cups with you. "You’re right. Business is more important. Let’s sign the contract first."

When He Mei Xin heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief secretly in her heart.

So it turns out that this Wu Ying Tian saw that she had come to find him to sign the contract and had only thought of it as a "gift" that Huo Jia Bao had given him, which was why he sized her up so unrestrainedly and coaxed her to drink.

Now that he knew it wasn’t the case, he immediately followed the rules.

This time, it was fortunate that he was smart and knew how to use Huo Jia Bao as a shield, otherwise, he would really be eaten by others.

After signing the contract, Wu Ying Tian intentionally or unintentionally told her not to tell Huo Jia Bao about drinking. Naturally, He Mei Xin was happy to owe him a favor.

After all, who knows if she’ll need to talk about something next time.

After exiting the Baojie company, He Mei Xin heaved a long sigh. Looking at the time on the wrist watch, it was almost noon.

After catching a taxi, she went back to the company.

The whole morning, Huo Jia Bao was at his company’s meeting as he waited for He Mei Xin to call for help in a miserable state.

But at noon, when all the meetings were over, he did not receive a call from He Mei Xin, nor did he receive a call from Wu Ying Tian.

He couldn’t help but feel slightly anxious in his heart.

Calling Qian Jun into his own office, he instructed, "Call He Mei Xin and ask her what happened. How did she sign the contract for so long? Did you get lazy somewhere? "

Hearing that, Qian Jun knew that he was worried about He Mei Xin’s safety, and said deliberately: "Maybe she and Wu Dong had a good chat, and ended up having lunch together."

"Have a nice chat? They didn’t know each other, so what was there to talk about? Wu Ying Tian, that dog, if you dare touch my man and try, I will skin him alive. " Huo Jia Bao said with a face full of annoyance, "What are you still standing there for? "Hurry up and call them."

"Oh, I’ll call him right away." Qian Jun promised. Just as he was about to dial the number, a knock came from the door.

"Who is it?" Huo Jia Bao replied impatiently from inside.

"Hutong, it’s me." He Mei Xin’s voice came from outside the door.

Hearing that, Huo Jia Bao’s eyes instantly lit up, but he immediately recovered his expression of impatience, "Get in here."

He Mei Xin pushed the door and entered, holding a Filing bag, "Hutong, I’m back."

"Do you know what time it is? I asked you to sign a contract, why did you take so long? How do you do it? " Huo Jia Bao started to recount the details of the moment he opened his mouth, but after examining her and confirming that she was unharmed, he finally felt a little relieved.

"When I went there, Wu Dong was in a meeting and I ..." He Mei Xin tried to explain why he was delayed for such a long time.

However, Huo Jia Bao didn’t want to hear it. He waved his hand and said, "Don’t give me any excuses, in short, you’re doing something unfavorable. Put the contract down now and get out."

"Oh." He Mei Xin felt wronged, but she could not be bothered to explain, she simply took a few steps forward, walked to the side of the office, and put down the contract she had signed, turned around and prepared to leave.

"Your salary is deducted by half this month." Huo Jia Bao added on from behind her.

Hearing that, He Mei Xin was startled, and immediately turned his head, "Why? Weren’t you the one who didn’t deduct my salary before? "

"That was before. Now I have changed my mind. What? Are you unconvinced? If you don’t accept it, then just don’t do it. " Huo Jia Bao looked at He Mei Xin with an expression that said he had no way of dealing with him.

He Mei Xin knew that she could not beat him, and could only endure it, "I did not, if you say so, then it’s fine."

"Get out of here, I don’t want to see you anymore." Huo Jia Bao waved his hand, signaling her to retreat.

"I don’t want to see you either." He Mei Xin muttered as he walked towards the door.

Huo Jia Bao did not hear what she was muttering about. Seeing her quickly leaving the office, he immediately pointed at her back and asked Qian Jun, "What did she just say? What did this Stupid woman just say? "

"She said she wanted to see you." Qian Jun replied.

"Hmph, she is thinking too highly of herself." Huo Jia Bao rolled his eyes, his face full of disdain.

Qian Jun resisted laughing, and did not dare to attack him.

"How do you think this Stupid woman will deal with that old guy Wu Ying Tian?" At this time, Huo Jia Bao became curious again, "From the looks of it, she doesn’t seem to have been molested or something."

"You want to know?" Qian Jun opened the Filing bag s, and said so while checking the contract.

"Well, don’t you want to?" Huo Jia Bao looked at Qian Jun with a gossipy expression.

Qian Jun raised his head and looked at her, "If you want to know, then ask her yourself. I’m not interested in this matter."
