First spoiled, then love

Chapter 577 Chen Qingrong’s Dirty Thoughts (6000)

At first, Chen Qingrong was a little puzzled as to why Zhu Lan reminded him that, but after he met Boss Zou in person, he understood.

This Boss Zou is a dwarf.

He is in his fifties and about 1.34 meters tall. When he sits in the boss chair, his feet are hanging in the air, making him look particularly mini.

His hair has turned a little gray, but because of the disease, he doesn't look that old. The only difference is that when he smiles, deep wrinkles appear on his face, especially around the corners of his eyes.

If he doesn't smile, his childish face makes him look like a little child.

It seems that Zhu Lan is worried that after seeing Boss Zou like this, he might accidentally reveal a look of contempt.

Actually she was wrong.

Even if Chen Qingrong despised everyone, he would never despise such a disabled but strong-willed person.

It is difficult for a healthy person to start a business and make a fortune, let alone a dwarf like Boss Zou. He can fully imagine how sad and difficult it has been for Boss Zou along the way.

Therefore, he admires such people from the bottom of his heart.

After chatting with Boss Zou for more than an hour, Chen Qingrong was satisfied with him in every aspect, and then he left with Zhu Lan.

"So what do you think of Boss Zou? I am very satisfied with him." Zhu Lan smiled.

Chen Qingrong nodded and said with emotion, "It's not easy for Boss Zou. With his body, I don't know how much hardship he must have endured to get to where he is today. I really admire him. If it were me, I would definitely not be able to do it."

Zhu Lan was stunned. "Did you misunderstand something? Boss Zou is a third-generation rich man. His family is very wealthy. He didn't suffer much to start this business. He relied entirely on his family's connections to get to where he is today."

The expression on Chen Qingrong's face suddenly froze.

Zhu Lan was amused at this time. "No wonder you were so respectful to him just now, just like a eunuch meeting the emperor. You must have imagined a tragic drama in your mind, right?"

"People say that men have no empathy, but this is obviously not true for you. I think you are very empathetic."

Even a fool could hear the sarcasm in Zhu Lan's words.

Chen Qingrong was even more furious, "Then why didn't you say so earlier?"

Zhu Lan said the most classic words, "You didn't ask me, and how could I have expected you to think that way?"

Oh shit.

Chen Qingrong was about to curse.

Who wouldn't think that when seeing a dwarf like that? This is a normal human reaction, okay?
"Thirty-eight."

Chen Qingrong cursed directly and left.

Zhu Lan was stunned for several seconds before she responded, "No, Mr. Chen, Chen Qingrong, did you just call me a bitch?"

"No, don't pick up the scolding yourself."

"Fuck! I clearly heard you calling me a bitch! You bastard, I'm still your client, how dare you call me that!"

"Then cancel the cooperation?" Chen Qingrong turned to look at her.

Zhu Lan laughed again, "No, I will cooperate with you. I will be the mistress who destroys the relationship between you and your wife. I am a bitch. Not only am I a bitch, I am also a symbol."

Chen Qingrong, "..."

"You're invincible kid."

Chen Qingrong was defeated.

He admitted that this woman was much more abstract than him.

Zhu Lan originally wanted to invite him to dinner, but was rejected by Chen Qingrong.

Although she said it was an invitation, her heart was not sincere at all.

Because she used "I'll give you a chance to treat me to a meal."

Tell me, listen to me, is this human language?
Chen Qingrong will not tolerate such people.

After he separated from Zhu Lan, he went to a restaurant on a certain road, ordered two dishes, took photos and sent them to Tang Xiaoru.

But Tang Xiaoru didn't reply to him.

"Old Chen?"

"Huh?" Chen Qingrong turned around when he heard the familiar voice and found that it was Yan Mo and a young girl who appeared behind him.

"Wow, it's really a mud duck~" Yan Mo looked very happy, then he thought of something and quickly explained, "This is Xiao Jin, the new receptionist at my clinic. Xiao Jin, this is my good friend Chen Qingrong, you can just call him Brother Chen."

"Hello, Brother Chen."

Xiao Jin smiled sweetly and greeted.

"Hello, hello." Chen Qingrong raised his eyebrows, "Are you guys here to eat too?"

"I brought Xiao Jin out to do some work, and we just happened to pass by here so we had lunch together."

"Xiao Jin, please go back to the clinic first. I want to have a good chat with my good friend."

"Okay, goodbye Brother Yan and Brother Chen."

Xiao Jin left first.

Yan Mo then sat down opposite Chen Qingrong and said, "Don't think too much. I am innocent with her."

Chen Qingrong smiled playfully, "I haven't said anything yet, why are you so nervous?"

Yan Mo rolled his eyes. "You didn't say anything, but your silver smile has betrayed your inner thoughts."

"Fuck you, when the hell did I laugh so hard?" Chen Qingrong scolded him with a smile, and then said, "But you are also very careless. Why did you recruit such a young and beautiful girl into your clinic? Aren't you afraid that my sister Bingbing will get jealous if she finds out?"

Yan Mo explained, "Bingbing has already met Xiao Jin. In fact, when I was recruiting, I had several candidate lists. When I showed them to Bingbing, she ticked Xiao Jin's resume herself. That's why I dared to hire her. I was just following orders."

"Why did she choose Xiao Jin? Isn't she jealous?"

"My wife is not so narrow-minded. She said that all the people who come to my psychological clinic for treatment are mentally ill. They are already ill, so they must be under certain pressure when they come to the psychological clinic for treatment. At this time, letting them see beautiful things will help them with their psychological problems."

"You know what, my wife's words make sense."

"Then I understand. No wonder the nurses in the hospital are so beautiful and have such good figures. This must be the reason." Chen Qingrong suddenly realized.

Yan Mo laughed, "It's not like you haven't been to a hospital before. How many nurses are pretty and have good figures? Don't always bring the plots in the movies into real life."

"Nonsense, I didn't bring it in at all."

Although he said this, Chen Qingrong actually really took it into account.

Hospital, nurse, Yang Wei's patient, or hospitalized patient, and the girlfriend of the patient next door, these keywords were what Chen Qingrong liked to search for when he watched porn movies before.

After all, who can resist a romantic moment in a hospital ward?

Chen Qingrong thought that after Xiaoru recovered from giving birth, he would have to find a way to convince her to unlock this new scene.

Yan Mo chatted with Chen Qingrong for a few words and then left.

After he left, Chen Qingrong ate for a while before returning to the company.

As soon as he arrived at the company, he saw a familiar figure sitting at the round table waiting for him.

"Shengnan? Why didn't you tell me you were coming? How long have you been here?" Chen Qingrong called her.

Ni Shengnan chuckled, "It wasn't long, only about ten minutes. I asked your company's employees, and they said you went out at noon, so I thought of waiting for you here. There's no rush anyway."

Chen Qingrong rolled his eyes, "That's too stupid, isn't it? What if I don't come back? Wouldn't you have to wait forever? You are also the owner of a milk tea shop, so why don't you be busy with your own business?"

"Isn't this because I have completely delegated power to my employees? So I have essentially become a freeloader again."

"Okay, you idler, come with me to the office and chat. Um, Xiao Wu, make two cups of tea." Chen Qingrong gave an instruction and then took Ni Shengnan into the office. Not long after, Xiao Wu also came in with tea.

"Try it! This is good tea bought from Yunnan. Even someone like me who doesn't like drinking tea has fallen in love with it." Chen Qingrong said with a smile.

Ni Shengnan said, "Don't worry about drinking tea. I came here this time because I want to ask you for help with something, Brother Chen."

"Then tell me, what do you want from me?"

Hululu.

Chen Qingrong took a sip of tea as he spoke.

Although the temperature has risen a lot now, he just came back from outside and his body is still cold. Now after drinking a sip of hot tea, he really feels a lot more comfortable all over.

Ni Shengnan said, "Brother Chen, a relative of mine, I call him brother, he also graduated from the Design Institute, he just lost his job and is looking for a job now. I met with him a few days ago and talked to him. He complained to me that the current environment is difficult and he can't find a suitable job. Either he looks down on others, or others look down on him."

"I thought of your company at the time, so I blurted out and asked him if he knew Chen Tangguan Design Co., Ltd. Unexpectedly, he not only knew it, but also said that he was a fan of your company. So, hehe, I thought of shamelessly looking for Brother Chen Ni and asking if you could give me, your brother, a chance to interview."

Chen Qingrong was amused. "It's just a small matter? You can just say it on WeChat. Why did you make a special trip? Really."

After a moment of hesitation, he continued, "Well, let him go to our branch for an interview. You know the address of our branch. Tell him when the time comes. I will say hello to the person in charge of our branch. We are not short of people at the head office at the moment."

Ni Shengnan said gratefully, "Thank you very much, Brother Chen. I will tell him!"

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. I'm just giving him a job opportunity. It's still unclear whether he can survive the internship period."

"By the way, which company did he work for before?"

"I asked him about it. I think it was called Black Swan. It didn't seem to be a particularly famous company, but according to him it was quite profitable. He worked there for four years."

"Then why are you unemployed?"

"He said it was because of a management change and he was on the wrong side, and he was implicated as a result."

"Haha, that's what's going on." Chen Qingrong found it a little funny for a moment. "If he comes to our company, we won't have to worry about such problems, because our company doesn't have such corporate culture. The most important thing is whether he can persist and whether he can adapt to the intensity and work style of our company."

Ni Shengnan said confidently, "He is also a veteran office worker. I think he will definitely be able to adapt."

Chen Qingrong smiled and shook his head. "Your words for him don't count. The most important thing is to see how he performs."

"Okay, now that we've finished talking about business, can we have some tea?"

"Okay." Ni Shengnan picked up the cup and took a sip, then said politely, "The tea has a dense aroma. It must be good tea. Brother Chen, you have good taste."

"Although I know you are just trying to flatter me, I still like listening to you."

"Hehe." Ni Shengnan took another sip and reminded Chen Qingrong, "By the way, Brother Chen, you must tell Sister Xiaoru about this. I know you are the head of the family, but this matter is after all considered as me asking you for help, so you still have to let Sister Xiaoru know."

Listen, what does high emotional intelligence mean?

Obviously, he was worried that Chen Qingrong couldn't make the decision, but after hearing what Ni Shengnan said, Chen Qingrong felt much more comfortable.

After all, she recognized Chen Qingrong's status as the head of the family. Even if it was just a polite remark, Chen Qingrong felt comfortable listening to it.

He patted his chest in a pretentious manner and said, "Don't worry, I, Brother Chen, have the final say in the company now. I'll just inform Xiaoru when the time comes, and she won't have any objections."

"And let me tell you again, Xiaoru has decided not to come to work in the company after giving birth. At that time, I will have the final say in the company, and whatever I say will go by."

Ni Shengnan was a little surprised. "Why didn't Sister Xiaoru come to work? Did you two have a fight?"

Chen Qingrong shook his head. "How is that possible? I love her so much, how could I bear to quarrel with her? She is just tired of this job and wants to do e-commerce."

"Hey, Sister Xiaoru, what kind of e-commerce business do you want to start? Please guide me."

"I didn't catch up with their trendy brand before. If Sister Xiaoru still has a way to make money this time, I also want to get on board."

"Then I don't know. You can ask your sister Xiaoru yourself."

Chen Qingrong really didn't lie.

After all, Xiaoru has not told him what kind of business she wants to do, she just said she wants to do e-commerce.

Ni Shengnan kept it in mind.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Mr. Chen, I'm Zhang Jinming. Can I come in? I have something to talk to you about." Zhang Jinming's voice sounded tentatively.

Ni Shengnan also said sensibly, "Brother Chen, since you have other things to discuss, I will leave first."

Chen Qingrong smiled and said, "Okay, then I won't see you off."

"No, no, hey, bye."

Ni Shengnan stood up and opened the office door, and gestured for Zhang Jinming to come in.

Zhang Jinming nearly died last year, but his condition gradually improved and he did not return to work until December last year.

During this period, Chen Qingrong and others continued to pay Zhang Jinming's salary.

Because of this, both Zhang Jinming and his wife would praise Chen Qingrong and his friends for their righteousness whenever they met someone.

However, two of Zhang Jinming's apprentices left, and even Zhang Jinming, the master, couldn't keep them.

Even the father can't control his own son, let alone he is just a master.

"Old Zhang, please sit down and talk." Chen Qingrong waved to him to sit down.

Zhang Jinming then sat opposite Chen Qingrong. He was a little hesitant and seemed to have difficulty opening his mouth.

Chen Qingrong smiled helplessly, "Lao Zhang, we have known each other for such a long time, just say it directly if you have something to say. As long as you don't suddenly tell me that you are calcium, I can accept it."

Zhang Jinming's face turned red. "Mr. Chen, you are such a joker. I am already this old, how could that be possible? Well, since you asked, Mr. Chen, I won't hide it from you. I do have something I want to tell you."

"I would like to take a week off to go to Nanjing. Don't worry, Mr. Chen, I'm not going out for fun, I'm going to do serious business."

"What are you going to do in Nanjing?"

"It's like this. I have a childhood friend. We have known each other for more than 30 years. He is also from Shanghai, but he went to Nanjing to develop his career two years ago. He contacted me a few days ago and said that he had bought a piece of land in Nanjing and wanted to build a glass factory. He wanted to hand over the business to me, so I planned to go there in person to investigate and see if it would work."

Chen Qingrong's eyes lit up, "This is good news, Lao Zhang. You looked embarrassed just now. To be honest, I even thought you were going to resign from my job."

"I just feel embarrassed to ask for leave after only working for a short time." Zhang Jinming scratched his head and added seriously, "As for resigning, I, Zhang Jinming, would never do such a thing. It was you, Mr. Chen and Mr. Tang, who gave me a second life. It was also because of you that my relationship with my wife improved. I am also a person who knows how to repay a favor. I have decided to burn out my career life in the company. There is absolutely no way I will leave."

Chen Qingrong was deeply moved by his determined eyes and firm tone.

"Don't say it so harshly. I believe you are not that kind of person. I was just joking with you just now." Chen Qingrong smiled and patted Zhang Jinming's hand, then asked, "When do you plan to leave?"

Zhang Jinming thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow, I'll take the high-speed train or plane to Nanjing tomorrow evening."

"Okay." Chen Qingrong nodded. "Go away. I won't give you a ten-day vacation. I'll give you an unlimited vacation. You can come back when you think the negotiation is right. As for the company, you don't have to worry. After you leave, your eldest apprentice will take your place."

"Thank you, Mr. Chen!" Zhang Jinming was deeply moved.

After the two chatted for a few more sentences, Zhang Jinming went out.

After returning home in the evening, Chen Qingrong told Tang Xiaoru about this matter.

Tang Xiaoru said directly, "Do you want to go with Zhang Jinming? Not only can you follow him on the inspection, but most importantly, you can also go and see Ruirui."

That’s right, Chen Qingrong also told Tang Xiaoru about Ruirui’s incident.

He always believed that there should be no secrets between husband and wife.

Chen Qingrong frowned, "I can go, but I'm not sure if Ruirui is really in Nanjing now. If she's not here, I'll be in vain. How about I make an appointment with her in advance?"

Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him, "If she really wanted to hide it from you, you should have told her in advance. Will she still let you see her then? I think a surprise attack is better."
