It was only when he joined the team that he realized that the research project here was quite novel. Moreover, the team was harmonious and they were all experts in related fields. They only needed to figure out what to do with their car every day. They did not have to engage in complicated political
struggles and did not have to worry about any nonsense.
This was the workplace he had dreamed of.
In addition, his salary was rather high, so he came over without hesitation.
Although he had heard about the boss’s wealth, he was still surprised by He Xiaopeng’s actions.
“I think you should do as Brother Peng says.”
He Tao patted him on the shoulder and said habitually, “This guy is a perfectionist. No matter where he goes, he wants to achieve the ultimate balance. If you go against Brother Peng, he may keep pestering and haunting you.”
“Haunting me?”
Xia Heng looked at him and then at He Xiaopeng. This was too scary.
“Boss… Do you agree?”
It was not that he was being petty, but his previous superior was really too stingy. Even if he had money, he was unwilling to use more for research and development. Every time He Xiaopeng needed money, he had to be at his boss’s heels.
The reply would be: “Did you really not pocket the money? Where exactly did you spend the money? Are the materials that expensive? My friend is also from the industry. The materials on his side are very cheap—about 10 yuan.”
Those are f*cking wholesale goods from the mall run by volunteers! He Xiaopeng thought.
Who would dare to use such cheap products?
If he doesn’t have the money, why would he do research?!
However, as he did not want to offend anyone, he endured it until the day he resigned.
He Tao more or less knew about this matter, so he said, “Whether we want quality or quantity, this was what the boss said a few days ago. Just go ask for money if there isn’t any left. He won’t make things difficult for us.”
In his heart, Lu Ming was rich and mysterious.
He wondered where he had gotten so much money at such a young age.
Could he be some rich kid? he wondered.
“Taozi is right. We can’t disappoint the boss. As long as we use the money on proper things, he won’t say anything. Besides, if we really succeed, we might be able to leave a mark in history!”
He Xiaopeng encouraged them.
As expected, the second half of his sentence moved Xia Heng. After all, who in the world did not want to achieve hegemony?
“Alright! T’ll change the materials immediately!”
Just as Lu Ming was sitting on a stone slab and looking at a map, he heard the sound of high heels behind him. He instinctively turned around but was suddenly blinded. A unique fragrance reached his nose.
“Guess who I am?”
Lu Ming said helplessly, “How old are you? Why are you playing a child’s game? Can you let go of me?”
“No, you have to guess who I am before you let go.”
Her crisp voice was playful and lively. Needless to say, she must be charming.
Lu Ming raised his eyebrows slightly and said, “I can’t guess. Why don’t you give me a hint? Do we know each other?”
“Big baddie! Of course we know each other!”
Seeing that she was angry, Lu Ming quickly said, “I know who you are. Your voice is so nice. It must be Little Yu, right?”
“Hmph, you barely passed.”
‘The other party retracted her hands. Before he could get used to the sudden brightness, he saw Chu Jinyu drawing close to him. As both of them were feeling each other’s breaths on their skin, she chuckled and said, “Do you know me now?”
Lu Ming’s pupils constricted abruptly.
He felt that that was too close!
“… Yes.”
Chu Jinyu saw that his expression was calm, as if he was not provoked at all, and could not help but feel a little disappointed. Immediately after, when she unintentionally caught a glimpse of his reddened ears, the corners of her lips curled up.
Could this be proof that Brother Lu Ming is also interested in me? she wondered.
At the thought of this, she sat beside Lu Ming casually and said, “Brother Lu Ming, you were feeling shy just now, right?”
Shy?
How could I be shy? he thought.
But only the beating heart just now could show that he was lying.
Lu Ming suppressed his complicated emotions and said, “No.”
“Really?”
Chu Jinyu met his gaze and asked.
“Why bother with this matter? Oh right, why are you here? Are you passing by?”
After coughing a few times, he changed the topic stiffly.
Chu Jinyu was delighted but smartly did not pursue the matter. She said, “I’m not passing by. I came specially to look for you to see what you’ve been doing recently.”
She had just come over when she saw Lu Ming staring intently at the thing in his hand. The sun cast a golden glow on him, making him seem like a messenger from heaven.
For some reason, her heart rate sped up again. She stood rooted to the ground for a long while before coming back to her senses.
He’s so good-looking! she gasped.
She paused for a moment before continuing, “By the way, let me tell you something. After my mom found out that this piece of land would be transformed into a new technology park, she wanted to enter the smart car industry. The future prospects in this industry are not bad. She did an investigation for
more than half a year and finally made up her mind after seeing the news.”
“What do you mean?”
Lu Ming asked.
Chu Jinyu explained, “She wants to open a branch company in Shanghai. The location is that piece of land beside here, so she wants to talk to you. It’s best if we can reach an agreement. My mom is a real business woman who only cares about profits. Understand?”
In other words, she was implying that he should not stand on ceremony when the time came.
Chu Jinyu’s mother?
He thought of the woman sitting on the chair the last time. She exuded a strong aura that left a deep impression on anyone who saw her, especially those sharp eyes. It was as if she would pounce the next second and bite her enemy’s neck swiftly.
Business woman?
Perhaps she is a born business woman.
Smart cars were a new force to reckon with, just like smart phones from a few years ago. Now, every businessman would want a piece of the pie. As for Han Qianjing,
He was quite interested.
Awhile ago, he had heard from others that Han Qianjing was the business overlord of the traditional manufacturing industry, or rather, the boss of the industry. Her status was extraordinarily high.
If he could use this opportunity to gain some benefits, his plan would progress more smoothly.
Han Qianjing wanted the land and he wanted the resources. It was a win-win situation.
“If you betray your mom like this, won’t she hit you if she finds out?”
Chu Jinyu said nonchalantly, “She expected me to do this, but she still told me. This means that she doesn’t care at all.”
Does she not care, or is she planning to use her daughter to win my favor? he thought.
Lu Ming did not think that such a shrewd big shot would do something useless..
