When Xue Xue arrived, the man was already waiting inside.
After the two shook hands and greeted each other, Zhang Fang called the waiter to order food.
During the process, Xue Xue looked at the man and found that he was really different from a few years ago. The childishness he used to show on his face and green eyes had faded. He had become more mature and charming, and he was full of the noble temperament of a young man from a wealthy family.
No wonder when Xue Xue had looked at Zhang Fang, she felt that he and his brother Zhang Ming were quite different in certain temperaments and did not look like a real brother. Now it seemed that her vision was quite unique. Xue Xue thought this while waiting for the waiter to leave.
There were only two people left in the large private room and Xue Xue was ready to cut into the right topic. Unexpectedly, Zhang Fang opened his mouth one step earlier.
âI have already read the report sent by Senior Sister.â
âHuh?â
âActually, I donât want to hide from Senior Sister, but my brother⊠Zhang Ming had come to see me a month ago.â Zhang Fang was no longer stammering. He spoke slowly and logically without hurrying. âBut I turned him down.â
Xue Xue didnât know about this matter.
She frowned.
If Zhang Fang had rejected Zhang Ming, then now⊠ăâ
âMy reason for rejecting him is very simple. There is an unwritten rule in our familyâs investment fund, which is not to touch the technology industry.â
The reason was given, but because of this, Xue Xue frowned even deeper.
She knew that Zhang Fangâs words were not finished yet, so she waited patiently.
The manâs hand were crossed into a tower and placed on the table, his pair of black eyes as deep as an ancient well stared intently at the woman in front of him, his eyes seemed to be burning hot, but it did not make people feel offended and uncomfortable, so Xue Xue also generously let him looked at her.
After a long silence, Zhang Fang opened his mouth again.
âBut since itâs an unwritten rule, it means that there can be exceptions.â
The man said, stretched out his fingers, and rubbed his chin.
âSo, I donât mind making an exception for Senior Sister.â
Xue Xue had already anticipated that. Since Zhang Fang said that he rejected Zhang Ming, he was laying the groundwork for the follow-up words.
Her demeanor was calm, just waiting for Zhang Fang to put forward the conditions.
Zhang Fang thought that Xue Xue would have an unexpected reaction, but he didnât expect when she hear him say that, the woman faceâs didnât change, she didnât even have any extra expressions, she just looked at him quietly, as if she was watchingâŠan unreasonable child.
This association made Zhang Fangâs ears and neck turn red.
Even though the man in front of him can be described as âgrown a lotâ in all aspects, there were still some tiny habits and instincts that were deeply rooted in his body and show up at unexpected times.
Xue Xue noticed this, and the corners of her lips finally couldnât help but draw an arc.
Even if it was just a slight twitch, it was enough to fall into Zhang Fangâs eyes.
He could no longer hold back the high posture he had at the beginning.
âSenior sister!â
âOkay.â Xue Xueâs eyes lit up as soon as she saw it and like a student who was praised by the teacher, she couldnât hide her excitement and smiled. âIf you have any conditions, just say it quickly, donât talk nonsense.â
âSenior sister, if, if you feel unsatisfied with your salary, I, I canâŠdo you want to work at our foundation?â
âEnough, Zhang Fang.â Xue Xue waved her hand and looked speechlessly at the man who had begun to stutter again. âThe salary is fine, but why do I have to work for your foundation?â
âHuh?â
Zhang Fang was stunned for a moment.
He wanted to say âbecause I want to see you every dayâ, but he knew he couldnât say that.
The manâs hand on his side clenched into a fist quietly, a movement that Xue Xue did not notice.
âZhang Fang⊠itâs not that I donât want to agree to you, but this request is really too sudden, IâŠâ
âBecause, I need the help of senior sister.â
This time, Xue Xue was stunned.
âAlthough I have now returned to the family and taken over part of the business, except my parents and brothers, there are many old directors who are dissatisfied with my sudden parachuting in. They are standing at the side and watching and are unwilling to hand over power easily.â Zhang Fang didnât look directly at Xue Xue but just stared at the dessert on the table, and said with a lonely voice. âI donât have a foundation. Even if I have the identity of the CEOâs son, itâs just an empty shell so, I have to start training my own people, but the top priority is to find a suitable person to take over the position of general manager.â
âThis person should not only be a person I trust, but also his qualifications and experience should be very good. Otherwise, he will not be able to suppress objections.â
âI have thought about it, and the most suitable person is only senior sister.â
âAlthough senior sister is a non-accounting major, but your achievements in the industry over the years are obvious to all, and I remember that my senior sister went to take a special course a few years agoâŠâ
Zhang Fang said while looking at Xue Xue.
Although the woman did not move, it seemed that she was no longer rejecting but thinking seriously, so he immediately cheered up and continued.
ââŠSo, please help me, senior.â
It was almost two oâclock.
Zhang Fang looked at Xue Xue and only felt that this was the most tense moment in his life.
He waited for the woman to give a definite answer.
Zhang Fang knew that this was the only and best opportunity.
Finally, Xue Xue, who had finished her calculations, opened her eyes and raised them to meet Zhang Fangâs.
The womanâs red lips opened, as if there was a faint fragrance wafting away.
âSo, if I help you, you will also help Ji Mujingâs company to overcome all difficulties, right?â
When Xue Xue said the word âJi Mujingâ, Zhang Fang felt like someone was cutting his own flesh with a knife. There was a dull throbbing pain in his chest, however, he did not reveal any clues on his face, but gave a firm answer in a slightly trembling voice.
âYes.â
âYou can send me here, IâllâŠâ
âSister?â Zhang Fang looked at Xue Xue, who was suddenly stiff and staring straight at a certain point in front of her and asked doubtfully. âSenior sister, whatâs wrong with you?â
Zhang Fang followed Xue Xueâs gaze and looked to his side, but there was nothing else but one car after another driving through the main road.
At this time, Xue Xue had recovered.
She shook her head.
âItâs all right.â
Although she said so, Xue Xueâs expression was solemn and did not seem to be okay.
The worried Zhang Fang wanted to ask again, but Xue Xue had already waved at him and quickly left in the opposite direction to where she had parked her car.
Zhang Fang wanted to catch up, but the phone rang just at this moment.
Xue Xue did not pay any attention to the man behind her who seemed to be in a little hurry. She just kept a calm face and carefully recalled the scene she just saw, and it was clear that she was not dazzled.
