Chapter 32 - Consequences

 After half an hour, Ren Han and I came back from "buying soy sauce", and the situation at home was quite different.

Although Can Can's face still looked out of sorts, but from Xiao Xiao's silly satisfied smile, the crisis has already been relieved, and this month's bonus is saved, Amitabha. We were having a warm and harmonious dinner until an annoying phone call came.

At that time, I was kissing up to Demon king Ren with a chicken leg when the loud ringing tone rang, Ren Han looked at the phone screen, frowned and picked up the phone, "En, en, yeah yeah." After that then the disconnected tone of hanging up sounded out, but judging from his overcast expression, there definitely must be some issue.

When Xiao Xiao saw it, he joked, "It seems that this chicken leg cannot be eaten anymore, it will be better to give it my family's Can Can." After saying, he really impolitely grabbed the chicken leg and eagerly and attentively put it into Can Can's bowl.

Can Can on hearing those words immediately became a steam engine and scolded, "Get lost~ Who wants your chicken leg? Also, who is your family's Can Can?"

"Oh? Isn't it? Didn't we get married half a year ago when we reached the upper level of the game? Now, you still have the title of 'Xiao Xiao Yi Feng's wife on top of your head."

"You really have no sense of shame. Yesterday while I was working overtime, you actually went to restore the marriage by yourself."

  ......

Can Can and Xiao Xiao, this young couple still have a harmonious bickering couple atmosphere. I sat on the side biting my chopsticks. Demon King Ren's expression looked even more unsightly when put beside this couple's pink atmosphere, I tried asking who called on the phone, and the response was also a cold glance. I have a hunch that after Can Can and Xiao Xiao leave, it will be very moody. When I escorted the young couple out, I deliberately pulled Xiao Xiao and asked about the situation, he was startled and started cold sweating.

Originally, the French Missouri winery recently planned to enter into the Chinese market, and have signed into a partnership with a domestic agent to distribute. The next step, was for the Chinese wine distributor is naturally to seek media cooperation and vigorously promote their wine. Such a gold mine, everyone in the industry wants to pounce and get a bite. Coincidentally, Xiao Xiao and the Chinese agent have a partnership, and so he got some information and passed it along to Ren Han. Demon King Ren naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity, which led to the journalist department staking out in a car for more than two weeks, and finally worked out a perfect plan, and were waiting for the the Winery's CEO, Sophie to come to China to finalize the advertising deal, in the end...there was the traffic accident.

After listening to that, I was sweating and pulling my ears down, "So, is this advertising deal ruined?" Other than Ren Han, there are still other people in the Journalism department, right? Even if Ren Han falls, they should also still be able to continue discussing the contract, right?

Can Can pat my shoulder and sighed, "I have also heard some things on this matter. I heard that this Sophie person is very picky. Since they have been discussing business with Ren Han, when the person suddenly changed, she didn't accept it. S1ime also explained to her that Ren Han had a traffic accident, but she did not seem to believe it, and felt that it was our magazine company not taking this business deal seriously."

Xiao Xiao nodded and added, "That woman is also very arrogant, and that Idiot Ren has also been feeling vexed about the injury, he was originally supposed to pick up Sophie that afternoon. In the end, it was not done and Sophie criticized the company of not attaching importance to the deal. Later, that idiot went to with his crutched to the hotel find her once, and was also rejected."

"Just drop dead! Who is this woman?"

I was stunned, and couldn't imagine the venerable Demon king has been cruelly rejected by a client. If it was before, I would have been very happy hearing the news, but now hearing this I cannot laugh at all. Although I am not from the Journalism department, I also know that the Journalism department has been very busy for the last weeks, just to plan out this big business; even if I'm not in management, just thinking about it on my toes, I can guess and understand the amount of money riding on this advertising business. It must be big, very big, but now because of me...it's all gone.

With all this in mind, I suddenly thought of a well-known legend in the business circle. A senior editor made a mistake and added a "former" in front of the leader's position, which directly changed it from "XX Chairman" to "XX former Chairman", which caused a great stir. The magazine company closed down, and dozens of people were collectively left unemployed because of this one person's mistake. I heard the female editor never showed her face in this city again and returned to her hometown.

When I first arrived at the company, the Big Boss liked to talk about this matter to educate and intimidate me. When I listened to it at that time, I used to think it was just made-up story. Now, I have a deep understanding of the feeling of that female editor. If the company loses this single business, it is not just tens of thousands, it is very likely to be in the millions, which means that the company's employee year-end bonus may collectively drop by 20%, like this, does it not seem like I am a great sinner? So, how do I face my colleagues in the company?

I only know now that Ren han not looking for me after the accident to settle the account was to protect me. If the Big Boss knows about that I am the chief culprit in the car accident, right now the squid would have been sauteed and fried already. Ren Han did not express his discontent was actually protecting me in disguise, I didn't know about it and was hiding from him. Thinking about it, my whole body couldn't help but feel unwell.

I asked, "Who do you think called just now? Sophie?"

Xiao Xiao shook his head, "It was probably someone from the Journalism department. I heard from a customer that now your rival magazine now knows about the news that Sophie came to China. If I guessed correctly, they have heard that Idiot Ren got injured and are taking advantage of this gap to curry favor with Sophie and are getting ready to finalize the advertising deal for themselves."

Can Can blinked, "So, the phone call must have been from S1ime, and must have been reporting to Ren han about the opponent magazine, right?"

Xiao Xiao pursed his lips, "Very likely." Then he paused and looked at Can Can and smiled, "You are so smart, definitely worthy of me."

"Give~I~ get lost ~"

  -_-|||

I ignored these two childish people, and began to think deeply: Maybe, I really need to wash the demon's toilet for a lifetime to settle this account.

  -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------

In the evening, I waited for the demon to sleep, quietly turned on the computer in the living room and went online, and as expected, S1ime was online.

[Editor Bai Ning]: S1ime, are you there? I want to ask you something.

[Journalist S1ime]:?

[Editor Bai Ning]: I want to ask which hotel Sofie lives in.

The information has been posted for a long time, but there was no response. I was fidgeting and thinking about it. The phone in my bag vibrated, when I opened it, it was actually S1ime calling.

"Hey."

S1ime's voice sounded a little unpleasant and directly asked, "What do you want her address for?"

"Hello," I looked towards Ren Han's bedroom, I was afraid that Ren Han could hear it and walked to the balcony, "I heard that she is a French beauty and want to see it."

S1ime snorted, "Bai Ning, give up. You are thinking to make VP Ren happy, don't be so naive, do you think that this is a novel? When you go to Sophie after a while, she will be touched by you and then promise to cooperate with our company? VP Ren will then see you in a new light? And you suddenly become Cinderalla?"

I was speechless, why is it that the more I listened to S1ime's words, the more I felt like it resembled the melodramas of two women vying for the same husband, I pouted, "I know that I am not Cinderella." I am a famous cottage princess of high society, and still not comparable to Cinderella.

"Don't go there and cause more trouble. VP Ren showed up in his wheelchair and could not impress her. Do you think you're going to save a million-dollar advertising deal by clinging to her thigh?"

"I- -" I hadn't finished talking yet when S1ime hung up the phone, and there was the depressing "beep" sound. I miserably grabbed my hair and frowned, wondering who else would know where Sophie was staying, and was preparing to flip through the business card folder, and then I heard a QQ notification.

[Journalist S1ime]: Soufei Grand Hotel, room D703

[Journalist S1ime]: She is flying back to France tomorrow at 11:30pm tomorrow, so...If you want to go beg, hurry up!

The corners of my mouth broke into a smile, this woman is really double-mouthed, after scolding me for being naive. Who knew that the fact that she reads online novels would be caught by me. So we all believe that there can be miracles. Nevertheless, there are some things that you have to try so you don't regret it~
