Chapter 296 Gu Jia's Misunderstanding
The efficiency of companies under Ark New Energy far exceeded Gu Jia's imagination.
She had just returned to the company and told Xu Huanshan about the contract when Mr. Wang, the general manager of Ark Park, called her:
"Hello, Manager Gu, I'm Wang Feipeng from Ark Park. Assistant Shen gave me your information and said that our fireworks business will be handed over to your company."
Because Gu Jia is taking the boss route, Mr. Wang's attitude is particularly good.
It was the first time that Gu Jia met such a polite Party A, and she quickly greeted the other party.
In front of Xu Huanshan, Gu Jia finalized with Mr. Wang of Ark Park that they would go to the park tomorrow to conduct an on-site experiment on the setting off of fireworks.
According to the terms of the contract, as long as there are no problems with Gu Jia's fireworks display, Ark Park will transfer 50% of the payment for this month's fireworks display project at the beginning of the month.
The remaining 50% of the payment will be paid within five days after Gu Jia fully fulfills the contract.
That means calling on the fifth of next month.
There are more than 30 amusement parks in operation in Ark Park, all of which need fireworks.
Six of the venues are in Jiangzhou City, twenty are near the Yangtze River Delta, and the remaining dozen are in southern cities.
According to the conditions proposed by Gu Jia, people will be sent to conduct experiments at each site.
Mr. Wang said that it would take more than a month to test all the more than 30 venues one by one.
The amusement park certainly wouldn't waste so much time.
Therefore, Mr. Wang asked Gu Jia whether both parties should train a group of talents in relevant professions to avoid wasting time.
In addition, fireworks themselves are dangerous to store and transport.
Gu Jia said before that these problems were the responsibility of the fireworks company.
But Mr. Wang doesn't want to rely on Gu Jia's words for everything.
He also wanted to ask a few more questions and investigate further what Gu Jia's protection measures were.
After all, this involves the operation of related projects in its own park.
Gu Jia discussed with Mr. Wang and finalized all the cooperation matters one by one.
After hanging up the phone, it was almost time to get off work.
However, today Gu Jia called together the office staff and called on everyone to work overtime tonight.
At present, this fireworks factory is not large in scale, and the cooperation with Ark Park is their first business.
At this time, employee morale can be used.
Xu Huanshan watched his girlfriend handle things in an orderly manner, and he felt both admiration and inferiority.
If I had known my girlfriend was so capable, I wouldn’t have interfered.
Of course, this idea of "playing rotten" went through Xu Huanshan's mind and was immediately discarded:
"I am a man and the future head of the family. I can't always rely on Gu Jia to manage the company."
"Huanshan, let's leave it at that for today. You keep an eye on it. When things are done tomorrow, we can make an appointment with Lao Su and treat him to a meal."
Gu Jia mentioned Su Mingzhe again, and Xu Huanshan no longer resisted as before.
This is what a big boy like Xu Huanshan is like. Although his emotions come violently, when he really encounters something, he will subconsciously choose to rely on others.
So after "Nothing But Thirty" was broadcast, others commented that Xu Huanshan was an alternative "wife-treasure man".
"Then Jiajia, you should go back and rest early. You have dark circles under your eyes recently."
Xu Huanshan and Gu Jia said some more heartwarming words. Seeing that it was already past six o'clock, he let his girlfriend go home early to rest today.
"Well, after you finish your work, go to bed early."
Gu Jia was thinking that her business venture was about to have a "good start", and while she was excited, she also wanted to thank Zhong Xiaoqin for bringing her and Ark New Energy together.
Although, if Gu Jia finds Su Mingzhe herself, relying on the classmate relationship between Xu Huanshan and Su Mingzhe, she will most likely get this cooperation opportunity.
However, this matter was ultimately made possible thanks to the help of Zhong Xiaoqin.
Thinking that Zhong Xiaoqin was not feeling well, Gu Jia simply turned into the vegetable market on her way home from get off work and bought a lot of fresh vegetables. She prepared to make a sumptuous dinner for her best friend to express her gratitude.
At about 7:30, Gu Jia returned to the apartment door carrying two bags of fresh vegetables and unlocked the door with her fingerprint.
As soon as she entered the room, she heard the voices of a man and a woman coming from the bedroom, which made her whole body stiff and cold, and her mind went blank in an instant.
I don’t know how long it took.
Gu Jia suddenly reacted, and hurriedly retreated with her things, closing the door and hiding in the emergency passage nearby, her eyes blank and helpless.
She had just listened for so long that she could naturally distinguish the voices of man and woman in the bedroom.
The girl is his best friend and good friend Zhong Xiaoqin.
The man was Su Mingzhe, whom I had just met in the afternoon.
I remembered that I had just reminded Su Mingzhe in the afternoon that Zhong Xiaoqin was her good friend and asked him not to hurt Zhong Xiaoqin.
Su Mingzhe also nodded at that time, telling Gu Jia not to worry.
After all, it’s only been a few hours.
Su Mingzhe broke into the house and caused trouble for Zhong Xiaoqin.
At this moment, Gu Jia felt distressed that Zhong Xiaoqin was harmed by a man, hated Su Mingzhe for not keeping his word, and hated herself for relying on Zhong Xiaoqin to get the order. But at this moment, Gu Jia could do nothing but hide in the safety passage, covering her mouth and crying.
In the apartment room.
Zhong Xiaoqin heard the door closing and asked in panic:
"Boss, there seems to be a noise outside."
“It may be the sound made by a resident passing by.”
Su Mingzhe noticed it when Gu Jia opened the door, but when he saw that Gu Jia didn't make any sound, he ignored her.
At half past eight.
Su Mingzhe and Zhong Xiaoqin said goodbye reluctantly.
In the safe passage, Gu Jia, who had been paying attention to the situation, saw the man leave. She wiped the tears from her face, calmed herself down, picked up her things, knocked on the door and went home.
Zhong Xiaoqin was tidying up the bedroom when she heard a knock on the door. She thought the man had forgotten to take something, so she ran over to open the door. But when she opened the door, she saw her best friend and was shocked:
"Jia Jia, why are you back?"
"I got off work early today, so I came back early."
Gu Jia looked at Zhong Xiaoqin's panicked expression, thinking that she was in "pain". Her eyes immediately showed pity. She let the things in her hands fall to the ground, and suddenly reached out to hug her best friend in her arms, trying hard not to cry, and asked:
"Xiaoqin, are you... okay?"
"Jia Jia, I'm fine. Are you okay? Did the contract signing go smoothly?"
Zhong Xiaoqin had no idea what Gu Jia meant by that. She thought she was asking how she was recovering after taking a day off, so she quickly said, "I'm fine now. I can go back to work tomorrow."
"no!"
When Gu Jia heard that Zhong Xiaoqin had to go to work tomorrow, she thought it was Su Mingzhe, the "beast", who asked for it. She was immediately furious and could not help but yell:
"Su Mingzhe...how can he be so inhumane? You...just had one day off, and he asked you to go back to work. No, you are not allowed to go to work tomorrow. You must rest at home!"
Zhong Xiaoqin wanted to explain herself, saying that she was fine, but Gu Jia insisted that she rest.
He even took out his cell phone to call Su Mingzhe to ask for leave for Zhong Xiaoqin.
Zhong Xiaoqin thought that the man should be driving now and it would be inconvenient for him to answer the phone, so she quickly said that she would send him a text message and that she would definitely take another day off tomorrow.
The irrelevant conversation between the two women came to a temporary end.
Afterwards, Gu Jia asked Zhong Xiaoqin to go and have a rest. She felt distressed and guilty, so she went to the kitchen to make something delicious for her best friend to replenish her body.
Zhong Xiaoqin also thought that the bedroom had not been cleaned up yet, so she followed Gu Jia's suggestion.
Finally, the two women finished their meal.
Gu Jia returned to the bedroom and saw the new bed sheets and air freshener in the room. These things reminded her of the humiliation her best friend had suffered for her.
Su Mingzhe doesn't know yet that Gu Jia has misunderstood him and Zhong Xiaoqin.
Of course, even if you know you’ve been misunderstood, it doesn’t matter.
Go home.
Wu Xu has returned from get off work.
Su Mingzhe put away his avatar who had gone home long ago and stayed in the study. He walked from the study to the bedroom and saw Wu Xu feeding the child. He couldn't help but frowned:
"Teacher Wu, why are you just now feeding the child?"
Wu Xu blamed himself when he saw the man coming in, and replied indifferently:
"I fed him at six o'clock, and took a nap on the way back. Now I wake up and I'm hungry again."
Wu Xu has been very busy with work recently and has paid less attention to and concern for his children.
Su Mingzhe has been hanging around Wang Manni and Zhong Xiaoqin recently, and hasn't paid much attention to Wu Xu.
Wu Xu's parents have begun to become dissatisfied with their daughter and son-in-law.
On several occasions, the two old people approached Su Mingzhe and asked him to take control of the charity fund company so that Wu Xu could return to his previous normal life.
The two old people have never understood what their daughter is thinking. If she really wants to do charity, wouldn’t it be enough to donate some money to Hope or the Red Cross?
Why should she work so hard and worry about a charity foundation company when she could be enjoying the leisurely life of the richest man's wife?
Su Mingzhe naturally would not control his wife, but he also talked to Wu Xu several times, asking her to pay attention to the way and method of working.
I don’t know how Wu Xu understood the meaning of her man’s words.
Anyway, recently, Wu Xu has been much more low-key when going out. He drives a domestic car and wears simple, custom-made clothes. Although they don't look cheap at first glance, at least they are not all luxury brands like before.
Watches and bags were also replaced with domestic products.
"I went to take a shower."
Wu Xu handed the daughter he had just fed to the man, then went into the bathroom with a bathrobe.
Su Mingzhe had just hugged his daughter when his son, who was lying in the rocking bed, started babbling and reached out for a hug. So Su Mingzhe simply held both children, one in each hand, and sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
Su Mingzhe didn't care whether the two children could understand what he said or not. He pointed at the buildings outside and explained to the children one by one, telling them what their names were, their origins and so on.
Speaking of which, I have lived in Jiangzhou City for decades, and I have seen the river view at night countless times.
However, every time I sit in front of the window at night and look into the distance, I feel that the scene in front of me is very beautiful.
After a while, Wu Xu finished her bath and came out in a bathrobe. Seeing the man still holding two children, she immediately became dissatisfied:
"Hubby, let the child sleep quickly. I have something to discuss with you."
"They have just eaten. Let them sleep after a while. Otherwise, it will be bad for their stomach."
Su Mingzhe held the child and coaxed him for a while before placing him in the crib next to the double bed. He hummed a lullaby and coaxed the two children to sleep.
