Flash Marriage with My Ex-Boyfriend’s Nemesis - Chapter 7

Ning Qingqing pinched the phone number and felt as if she was pinching a hot potato.

And just when she was hesitating whether to play dumb or something, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in her mind. Quickly copied the string of numbers, Ning Qingqing searched directly in WeChat Add Friends.

After a while, a search result appeared on her screen—Keith.

Ning Qingqing leaned back in her chair, her mind buzzing.

And at this moment, the sound of high heels rang in the office area, Ning Qingqing raised her eyes, and saw Si Luoqing’s manager Kenny brought over by the marketing manager.

Manager Chen said: “Qingqing, this is Kenny, he is here to negotiate with you about Miss Si’s endorsement contract.”

Ning Qingqing nodded: “Okay, Mr. Kenny, let’s go to the meeting room.”

There are already many people sitting in the meeting room, including the colleagues in charge of the public relations and marketing departments. They are basically in charge of the communication meeting, and Ning Qingqing needs to draw up the contract, so it is more of a recording work.

When in doubt, she brings it up directly.

However, colleagues in the marketing department who are usually very difficult to talk to, today, as long as the other party’s request is not too excessive, they almost agree. Fortunately, it was reasonable to negotiate the price in the end, and it was a normal market price.

“If there is no doubt in the future, we will sort out the contract as soon as possible.” The person in charge of the marketing department said, and said to Ning Qingqing: “Qingqing, this contract is rather urgent. Work hard today to finalize the first draft and send it to Kenny.”

Ning Qingqing nodded: “Okay.”

After the conference room was over, Ning Qingqing returned to her seat with the documents, not sure if she was sensitive, but she felt that several colleagues were looking at her with pity in their eyes.

Heh, it’s only been half a day, and the company has already spread the word?

That’s right, the whole company is watching the developments in the top office. Presumably, Shen Zhiqian and his son went downstairs with Si Luoqing at noon today. The front desk has already interpreted many versions!

In the following time, Ning Qingqing calmed down to draw up the contract and seek a job in her position. She would not target work because of personal emotional reasons.

After finishing her work, it was already dark outside, Ning Qingqing picked up her phone, only then did she see that there were two missed calls, both from Shen Zhiqian.

She had muted the meeting at the time, and she was busy all the time and didn’t pay attention to her mobile phone. After she found out that Shen Zhiqian missed the call, she sent her a voice message.

There are no colleagues in the office area where Ning Qingqing lives, so she simply clicked to play.

The voice of the airport broadcast came from Shen Zhiqian’s end, and the man said as he walked, “Qingqing, there is something urgent about the Haiyuan project. I will go on a business trip to deal with it. If everything goes well, I will come back the day after tomorrow.”

After finishing speaking, he added: “The temperature is going to cool down these two days, be careful not to wear too little for work, and bring a windbreaker to the company for preparation.”

After these two voices for more than ten minutes, Shen Zhiqian said: “Are you busy? Don’t delay dinner, I’m boarding the plane, and I’ll contact you when I get there.”

After Ning Qingqing replied to his message, she realized that she was really hungry. She just ate a little casually at noon today, and now several hours have passed, and her stomach is already empty.

After going through the contract again, Ning Qingqing sent it to Kenny, then shut down and got up.

She rarely drives to work, because her apartment is near the subway station, and the company is in the CBD business district, and the subway is also nearby.

Ning Qingqing came out of the building and was about to go to the subway station. When she passed the intersection, someone called her suddenly.

“Miss Ning.” Si Luoqing was wearing sunglasses and a mask, with Kenny beside her.

Ning Qingqing stopped in her tracks and turned her eyes: “Miss Si, what do you want me to do?”

The corners of Si Luoqing’s lips raised into a smile: “I’m sorry for making you work overtime today because of my affairs, and I want to treat you to dinner to make amends.”

Ning Qingqing looked at the woman’s sunglasses, because the surrounding light was already very dark, and she could only see the neon lights of the city in her lenses, but not the expression in her eyes.

“There is no need to make amends.” Ning Qingqing said lightly: “The responsibility lies.”

“That’s true.” Si Luoqing supported the mirror frame and stretched out her hand: “We will have a lot of cooperation in the future, please take care of me.”

Ning Qingqing didn’t reach out her hand, she didn’t feel the need to take care of the emotions of people who didn’t like her when she was off work—

“Miss Si, if you want to borrow my handshake to let me help you, then there’s no need. You can ask your manager to help you. After all, it’s so dark and wearing sunglasses really hinders your vision.”

Si Luoqing didn’t expect that Ning Qingqing would directly hate her, so she put away her smile and said in a low voice: “Our contract is so smooth, you should know why?”

Ning Qingqing turned around without saying a word.

But Kenny added behind her: “Miss Ning, do your own thing in the future, it’s not yours, so you can’t keep it!”

When Ning Qingqing heard this, her eyes turned completely cold.

She turned around and looked at the two of them: “You two, if I publish the audio of what you said to me today, what effect do you think will have?”

The expressions of the two of them changed, and they were suddenly a little uncertain whether Ning Qingqing was really recording.

After all, when they were calling Ning Qingqing, Ning Qingqing was still looking at her phone while walking.

“It’s your business if you want him, but don’t provoke me!” Ning Qingqing locked Si Luoqing’s eyes: “Do your part well, and I will repay you with the same words. If you want to grab something that doesn’t belong to you, Then be careful, you will lose money and people!”

After all, he turned and left.

When entering the subway station, Ning Qingqing made a phone call: “Brother Nie, check for me, how is the recent business status of Sijia Company in Dicheng?”

Nie Yu is the special assistant of Ning Qingqing’s mother. He is ten years older than Ning Qingqing. He has always taken care of Ning Qingqing as a little sister, and has also guided a lot of work.

He didn’t ask Ning Qingqing what the Si family was doing, but directly agreed: “Okay, Qingqing, I will tell you after I check the situation.”

“Well, thank you Brother Nie.” Ning Qingqing smiled: “I’ll treat you to dinner when I come back to the Imperial City!”

“You’re welcome.” Nie Yu said, “Come over on a business trip another day, and I’ll bring you the dim sum you like.”

Hanging up the phone, she got on the subway within two stops, which was a transfer station between two subway lines. Ning Qingqing didn’t need to transfer, so she walked to the other side where she didn’t need to open the door.

But at this moment, a petite figure was squeezed over, Ning Qingqing and the other party were taken aback when they saw each other.

Qiao Xiaomian said in surprise: “Honey, I actually met you!”

The two usually don’t take the same route. Qiao Xiaomian happened to go to the client’s side for a meeting today, so he walked this way. It’s past eight o’clock now, and she never expected to meet Ning Qingqing here.

Seeing her best friend, Ning Qingqing’s mood suddenly changed from cloudy to sunny: “So it’s fate!”

Qiao Xiaomian smiled and took her arm, letting Ning Qingqing, the tall man, hold the handle to stabilize the center of gravity of the two of them: “We can meet each other, we must have a drink together to celebrate!”

Ning Qingqing looked at her: “Aren’t you afraid you won’t get up tomorrow?”

“It’s okay, the boss is not here these days, and the project I’m in charge of has just finished a phase today.” Qiao Xiaomian said: “Why don’t we go to your house? I’ll go to your house to sleep at night.”

“Okay.” Ning Qingqing nodded: “But you are not allowed to kick the quilt while sleeping.”

Twenty minutes later, the two got off the subway together and went to Qing Bar near Ning Qingqing’s house.

The owner of this restaurant is also very good at cooking, because of a coincidence, the other party suffered from acute appendicitis but couldn’t get a taxi because of the snowstorm that day in the imperial city. Ning Qingqing happened to be having a party with her client’s daughter there, so she immediately drove her boss there.

So whenever Ning Qingqing goes there, the boss will cook some private dishes for her to try. This is unique to her, no one else has it, and she can’t order it at all.

This is what Qiao Xiaomian has always wanted, so he wants to come to this house with Ning Qingqing almost every two months.

The two sat down in the store, and there was a pianist playing softly at the bar. There are people sitting in twos and threes at the deck, drinking and talking in low voices.

Qiao Xiaomian couldn’t wait to use his chopsticks when the dishes fried by the boss came out. After a sip, he was full of praise, and then picked up the wine glass: “Come on, honey, drink!”

Ning Qingqing had to go to work tomorrow, so she didn’t dare to drink too much, but she didn’t know if what happened today was still uncomfortable. After drinking a glass of cocktail, she felt a little dizzy.

Qiao Xiaomian handed her the phone to look at: “Look at the blind date my mother found for me, do you think it looks like a comedian?”

When Ning Qingqing heard the words, she suddenly thought of those jokes sent by Gu Youchen. She said: “I really know one. He looks serious on the surface, but he may be a comedian.”

“Ah?” Qiao Xiaomian was curious: “Who is it? Do I know him?”

Ning Qingqing shook her head: “I don’t know each other, I also met by accident.”

As she spoke, she also told the funniest one she saw today.

And at this moment, the door of the private room in the corridor behind them opened, and as soon as the man came out, he heard a familiar voice.

He paused slightly, and saw the girl’s face flushed from drinking.

Ning Qingqing didn’t notice it, and continued: “There is another funnier one, I’ll show it to you…”

She learned the man who stuttered to report his mobile phone number, and Qiao Xiaomian on the opposite side suddenly laughed: “This is too talented! Come on, is that guy a handsome guy?”

When Gu Youchen heard this sentence, he tilted his body slightly in the direction of Ning Qingqing, as if the difference of a few centimeters could make him hear more clearly.

Ning Qingqing subconsciously drank another glass of cocktail when she was telling the joke, and her mind was a little dull at the moment.

She seemed to really think about it for a while to recall Gu Youchen’s appearance, then she grinned:

“Handsome, very handsome, and quite sweet.”

The author has something to say:

Gu Youchen: My daughter-in-law praises me for being sweet~~

Qingqing: What I praise is tiramisu~
