◎Help me◎
Chen Jing'an didn't know how long Shen Lie could endure it. She was already on the chopping block.
Ji Hong was very efficient at work. The contract had been signed that afternoon. Any problems and how to change them were clearly written down. She took them to the person in charge of the other party to report the problems.
The other party obviously didn't expect that Chen Jing'an would actually discuss contract issues with him.
"The rest of our cooperation contracts use the same template, and there have been no problems before and after. Miss Chen can rest assured."
The implication is that others are not as busy as you.
Chen Jing'an replied: "I also believe that there are no major problems with this contract, but for the sake of smoother cooperation between the two parties, I hope to reach consensus on the differences in the contract."
"OK, that's fine. I'll ask my colleague to come over and contact you. Make an appointment."
"Okay."
The time will be that afternoon.
A man of medium height, average appearance, wearing a polo shirt, who looked very businesslike, glanced past her, pulled out a stool over her and sat down: "Miss Chen, right? My surname is Xie, Xie Fei. I still have a lot of work. , We don’t have much time, I hope you can hurry up.”
Chen Jing’an ignored the other party’s scorn and sat down, mentioning each item one by one.
At first the other person scribbled it down.
When he got to the back, he simply stopped and listened to her talk, lowering his head and letting out a strange laugh from time to time.
Chen Jing'an asked: "Mr. Xie, do you have any questions?"
"No problem, you continue."
After a few minutes, Xie Fei raised his hand.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't help interrupting you. I'm here to negotiate the contract with you, not to listen to your wishes. Do you understand? If everyone was like you, would we still have to work?" "
I You think these are reasonable demands."
"You think?" Xie Fei leaned back and whispered from between his teeth, "You, a student who has not yet left school, have spent your whole life burning incense by cooperating with us. ."
After saying that, he leaned over again, spread his legs and rested his elbows on his legs, and said: "It's not that I can't understand it. I haven't been out of school. The little girl is quite beautiful. She has been spoiled by boys since she was a child. I think the world revolves around you. I am a person who has worked hard on my own. What I hate the most is people like you."
"You don't need to tell me what kind of people you hate. We are talking about work. Since you have expressed your opinion, there seems to be no need to cooperate. "
"Just kidding, are you serious about it? How can you work in the future if you are so petty? To be honest, our offer is not low, Chen. Are you really willing, Miss?"
Chen Jing'an began to collect the bag.
The waiter brought her the coffee she ordered, an iced latte. It had just been made. The coffee liquid and milk were beautifully layered. Water mist oozed from the glass. The coffee was good, but it was a pity.
The order had been purchased, and Chen Jing'an stood up to leave.
Xie Fei clicked his tongue: "With a work attitude like Miss Chen's, she is suitable for posting videos online, showing her legs and breasts, and attracting traffic. You have many schools..."
Chen Jing'an finished a cup of coffee. After delivering it, the ice cube that had not yet melted rolled over his face and hit the ground. The process was too fast. Xie Fei did not expect it. The chair was pushed back, making a harsh scraping sound. He looked for it in a panic and embarrassment. Wipe face with tissue.
"Are you fucking sick?!"
"If your mouth is dirty, you should wash it before going out."
Chen Jing'an went out and stopped a taxi to go back to school.
A few minutes later, the phone kept ringing. Xie Fei called. She answered and recorded the call. They were all filled with obscene and obscene words. After hanging up the phone, the messages she sent became more dirty than the last. She took screenshots and saved them without emotion... When we arrived at the school, the person in charge sent a message first, saying that the contract was not negotiated properly and why did he pour coffee on me?
Chen Jing'an could only send the recording and verbal abuse to the other party.
There was silence for a long time, and then I sent a message saying that I would confirm with my colleagues.
Chen Jing'an feels that since she entered the industry, she has been well protected by her teachers and seniors. Now she is working alone for the first time. She is a student and a newcomer with no reputation. There is no reason for others to look up to her. She just never thought that she would be despised. This kind of situation.
Then there will be no cooperation.
The next day, the other party apologized on behalf of Xie Fei, saying that both parties were interested and there was no need to be unhappy about the contract. They hoped to continue cooperation, but Chen Jing'an had already made up his mind and simply refused.
Xie Fei was probably scolded by his superiors and felt resentful. He sent friend applications from time to time. He first apologized, but after being rejected, he immediately changed his attitude and continued his previous style.
Chen Jing'an sent it to the person in charge, hoping that they could control it. If they couldn't control it, she wouldn't mind posting it online.
When a singer is on the rise, he doesn't want to be associated with negative news like this, and the other party promises to deal with it.
In the evening, Chen Jing'an put down her mobile phone and went to take a shower. Shen Lie came in from another room after washing and saw the screen of her mobile phone lighting up and the sound of a text message. He put down the glass of water and glanced across the screen of the mobile phone. There was a string of personal mobile phone numbers. Note, this is not a spam message.
He didn't care.
Until a short period of time, new ones kept popping up.
Shen Lie's finger rested on the screen without unlocking it. He could see the beginning of the text message and the words "Bitch" were very eye-catching. The sound of the shower stopped in the bathroom. He stood up and looked as usual.
When Chen Jing'an came out of the shower, she also saw those text messages. She also took screenshots as evidence, and then deleted the text messages. She blinked, but her emotions were not affected at all.
The final exam was approaching, and she held her tablet and planned to start reviewing first.
Shen Lie asked: "How is the cooperation?"
He had helped with the contract, so it was normal to ask. Chen Jing'an put down the tablet and said: "We have not reached a consensus on the modification of the regulations in the contract, so we do not plan to cooperate."
Her tone Indifferent, like talking about other people's affairs, just stating the facts as a bystander.
No grievances, no complaints, just indifference that really doesn't matter.
Shen Lie raised his eyes slightly and did not continue to ask.
Chen Jing'an thought the matter had come to an end. She had been too busy recently. She had to prepare for competitions, exams, and appointments. She was a little lucky that she didn't accept the cooperation, so when the other party contacted her again, she was completely unfazed. think.
The other party's attitude was completely opposite to before.
"Ms. Chen, I come here with sincerity this time. We have adopted all the contract modifications you mentioned and have revised them. Otherwise, if you want to take a look again, we will increase the price by another ten percent. "
Chen Jing'an didn't have time to think about the reason. He just said that he really didn't have time recently.
"Is it because Miss Chen felt unhappy last time? I am here to tell Miss Chen that my colleague Xie Fei mishandled this matter last time and has been fired from the company. You can also see that we "You really value this cooperation."
"Expelled?"
"Yes, and he is not that bad. He is a person who had his self-esteem trampled when he chased girls, so he sometimes has a natural tendency to be attracted to beautiful girls. He is also hostile in the company. He has a weird personality. The girls in our company rarely interact with him. "
"..."
Chen Jing'an didn't expect it to be so serious. Her screenshots had no such effect, and the other party's sudden kindness and attitude were too abnormal.
She thought for a while and chatted a few more words: "So that's it. I thought I did something wrong to cause
Mr. I hope Ms. Chen won’t take it to heart and don’t let Xie Fei affect our relationship. If everyone is satisfied with this cooperation, there will definitely be another cooperation. Ms. Chen has excellent conditions and wants to enter the entertainment industry in the future. Circle, our company's operations are mature..."
The further she went, the more bizarre she became. She was just a student, so there was no way she could make them look at her differently.
The answer will only point to one person.
Chen Jing'an refused again. Firstly, she really had no interest and no time. Secondly, a long-term cooperative relationship did not attract her. She had no intention of entering the entertainment industry.
-
Ji Hong came back after finishing the matter as instructed, and said: "I have emphasized many times, do not talk to Miss Chen about this matter, Miss Chen will not know."
"She will know, she has always been smart ."
Shen Lie spoke calmly, raised his eyelids, held the pen to sign, and closed the last stroke of his pen.
Ji Hong looked worried: "You know, aren't you afraid that Miss Chen will make trouble with you?"
Shen Lie raised his eyes and looked at him: "Do you think she will make trouble?"
"...I, I don't know." He only knew that like Chen Jing'an has a somewhat cold and arrogant personality and doesn't like his own affairs to be interfered with.
Chen Jing'an won't.
Not only didn't he know it, but he would look at him making tea calmly and slightly curiously, as if he didn't know.
"Can you still make tea?" Chen Jing'an looked at the complete tea set and the postures Shen Lie played with. The small teacup of the purple clay pot looked particularly delicate between his fingers.
"No, I just learned it."
Chen Jing'an held her chin and asked, "Why do you suddenly think of learning this?"
"Someone likes it." Shen Lie spoke concisely and concisely. He did not waste too much time on this matter. After washing the tea, making tea and brushing the lid, After waiting for the tedious process, he handed the tea to her with both hands, using her as a guinea pig.
The mouse touched the cup carefully, smelled the fragrance of tea when he lowered his head, praised it, then took a sip, his eyelashes trembled, and put down the cup after tasting it.
"How's it going?"
When Chen Jing'an met his gaze, she wanted to praise the deliciousness without thinking, but she couldn't get it out of her throat anyway. After making a slight swallowing movement, she asked, "Are you telling the truth?
" Somewhat too frankly hopeless.
"I can't taste it. No matter how good the tea here is, it's almost the same as the tea in my dad's thermos cup."
Shen Lie said softly: "I'm making it difficult for you. Why don't you give it a try? It's interesting."
"No, I'm clumsy."
"I'm willing to teach."
"Okay."
Chen Jing'an sat forward a few steps and followed Shen Lie's teaching process step by step. She looked attentive and couldn't drink the tea she brewed in the first step. It needs to be poured on the tea pet to wash the tea, and then pour boiling water... She lowered her eyelashes. Most of the utensils in her hands were not cheap, and her expression was focused and cautious.
"Why don't you ask me if I did it?"
A sudden sound distracted Chen Jing'an, and her hands shook slightly. It only took a moment before she slowly said: "I thought of it."
"Aren't you angry?"
"You There is always your reason for what you do."
She tapped the spout three times with slender fingers, looking very obedient.
Shen Lie continued: "It doesn't have much to do with me. It's the evidence you kept. You recorded the audio as soon as possible. That's why you asked one more question and the other party was eventually fired."
In other words, this result, Partially due to her.
Although Chen Jing'an doesn't think so.
"I've seen the evidence you gave me. You handled it very calmly and couldn't find anything wrong. You were calm on the phone and still guided him to tell what happened... I can't help but think that with these little tricks of yours, he What should I do if it's used on me?"
"How? I can't beat you."
Chen Jing'an looked at him and asked what to do next.
Shen Lie held her hand, guided her to get the kettle, poured the boiling water on the teapot little by little, and said: "Sealing the pot is to preserve the aroma of the tea."
He did not let go, teaching her step by step, leading her Proceed to the next step.
"He will disappear from sight and never appear in front of you again." Shen Lie spoke slowly, his expression even calmer, as if he was just talking about the weather.
Chen Jing'an was a little lost in thought, but didn't ask him what happened in the end.
"Next time you meet such a person, you should be more ruthless and do it more cruelly. It is best to break all his muscles and bones without putting him to death. You should be desperate but still have a glimmer of hope."
She looked at him.
Shen Lie smiled: "Don't look at me like this. I don't do anything illegal. He probably went back to his hometown to make a living. He has been out for so long that he has forgotten where his roots are." After
having a brief contact with Xie Fei, Chen Jing'an probably knew that the other person's family background was probably average, and it was very difficult . The harder you try to get out of trouble, the more unfair you feel, and this anger turns into malice unleashed on the weaker ones.
There is nothing crueler than knocking him back to his original form, to the place he wanted to escape from in his life.
"Concentrate."
Shen Lie reminded her that a pot of tea had been brewed and divided into two cups, both of which were about 70% full. He let go of her hand and picked up one of the cups to sip.
Then he smiled and said, "You're right."
He meant that he couldn't tell the difference either.
Chen Jing'an asked whether it was possible that their skills were too poor. She smiled and said, "You are so kind to me, and I don't know how to repay you."
"It's not impossible."
Chen Jing'an looked at him.
"For example, when I take a cold shower, I don't just pretend to be asleep and peek. Help me, Chen Jing'an."
He spoke out like an evil ghost falling into hell, eager to redeem his soul, but also like he knew he couldn't enter. Heaven wants to drag her into purgatory and suffer the torment of hell with him.
