Chapter 273 - Xian Zihao Is Finally Here III
"What"s the matter with you?" Sister Pan Yun was busy with the cameraman. Seeing that Jiang Ruolan did not look too good, she could not help but ask with concern.
Jiang Ruolan shook her head gently. "It"s nothing. How long do we have to stay here?"
"These are all important figures in the business field that are rarely seen. Even if we can come and take their pictures through the gla.s.s window, we couldn"t be here for too long. It will be easy to be criticized if we wait for too long." Sister Pan Yun shook her head and sighed, "In this world, the media among businesses is the most dangerous. A single mistake can offend a big figure or cause a big change in the department. It is best to be careful."
Jiang Ruolan nodded in agreement. "Indeed."
Although Sister Pan Yun was bringing her along, she was not a.s.signed to a large task. Sister Pan Yun observed from the side, looking for an opportunity to see which boss would come out to do a simple interview.
About an hour later, several bosses arrived at the conference room one by one. Many of them greeted Xian Zihao, who was sitting to the right of the door with a smile on his face. They shook his hands enthusiastically.
Jiang Ruolan just looked at him expressionlessly. In her world, this man who was at the top was merely a dream that she shouldn"t have.
After a while, a leader looked like he knew Sister Pan Yun came out. Sister Pan Yun walked over and asked him a few questions. When she was done with it, she looked at Jiang Ruolan and said with a smile, "You know, this world is so sn.o.bbish. Since your friends are from a higher cla.s.s, you should follow them. If they are all friends that can"t be shown off, then you will be looked down upon by others as well. Especially when it comes to business reporting. It"s all about who has the most connections and who has the most background."
Jiang Ruolan understood what she meant. No doubt, Sister Pan Yun was an outstanding journalist from the Department of Commerce. After working for so many years and having so many connections, she could control some important information anytime and anywhere. Jiang Ruolan was still considered a newcomer in the company.
"Actually, I"m very curious about President Xian." Sister Pan Yun looked at Xian Zihao, who had always been graceful, decent, and low-key through the gla.s.s. "I really rarely see this extremely young and outstanding boss. I"ve heard that he rarely shows his face. It can be considered as being lucky to see him once in my entire life. I really want to interview him myself, but I"m afraid that it might be too abrupt and cause trouble for our company."
Sister Pan Yun sighed, "Ruolan, if you have good connections, why don"t you try to interview President Xian? Being able to get an interview with him is a big story in our evening paper. If we can, surely our newspaper sales this week will be more than double the previous week."
Sister Pan Yun was throwing an impossible task to Jiang Ruolan. This was her way to show off her might. Jiang Ruolan just smiled and stared at the camera lens. Without even raising her eyes, she said softly, "Sister Pan Yun, aren"t you giving me a hard time? I don"t even know the person you just interviewed, let alone the other bosses."
Sister Pan Yun smiled. "You"re still young. It looks like you"ll have to take it slow."
Jiang Ruolan looked at her with an adoration expression. "Then I"ll have to trouble Sister Pan Yun to guide me well ~"
"Sure, sure."
After interviewing several big figures and taking their pictures, Sister Pan Yun and Jiang Ruolan"s task was finally completed. The two packed up their stuff and left the Garden Tech Zone. When they walked out of the door, they b.u.mped into a.s.sistant Bai, who was walking towards their direction with folders in her hand.
Jiang Ruolan paused for a moment and nodded politely to her. "h.e.l.lo."
a.s.sistant Bai wanted to say "President Xian is here" but seeing Jiang Ruolan"s unfamiliar att.i.tude, she swallowed her words back. She looked at her hesitantly, then looked at Sister Pan Yun. Sister Pan Yun seemed to want to say something, but Jiang Ruolan had already continued walking out with an expressionless face.
a.s.sistant Bai turned around and opened her mouth, but Jiang Ruolan had already gotten into the van.
"Did you know that person?" Sister Pan Yun casually asked as she flipped through the lens.
Seated in the back of the van, Jiang Ruolan said flatly, "She"s a friend."
"What friend? How come she had access to the club? From what I see, she is also decently dressed. She does not look like a small fry and looks quite familiar with you."
Women really like to gossip, not to mention Sister Pan Yun. Even though she was in her thirties, she liked to gossip. She will not stop until she knows the true story.
"We shouldn"t be considered too close. I had the privilege of communicating with her when I was in the Department of Commerce at Fengyu Media. Our relationship was average."
"No wonder. What status does she have?"
Jiang Ruolan was annoyed by these endless questions, but she could not show it on her face. She had no choice but to feign tiredness and rest her head against the seat, closing her eyes and not saying a word.
When Sister Pan Yun didn"t get an answer, she turned around to look at her. When she saw that her eyes were closed, she helplessly said, "Youngsters can"t be so lazy right now. You have to change your habits."
Jiang Ruolan said nothing. Before they arrived at the company, Jiang Yijun suddenly called her.
"Where are you?" he asked.
Jiang Ruolan sat up, looking out the window, at the pa.s.sing street as she said, "I"m on my way back to the company from the Garden Tech Zone. Why are you asking?"
Ever since they made dumplings together that day, Jiang Yijun has been living together with her. He said that his house was being renovated and insisted on staying with her for a few days. Since they had lived together for so many years, even if they were living together now, they still wouldn"t be at odds with each other.
However, this brat had been keeping an eye on her recently. Jiang Yijun would constantly call Jiang Ruolan every now and then to ask about her whereabouts. Every morning before she went to work, someone would knock on the door and send the milk, but whenever Jiang Ruolan went to open the door, Jiang Yijun always pushed her away, saying that he would get it.
His behavior was getting weird with each pa.s.sing day. This fetish of him needed to be cured!
"I have a celebratory dinner at the Grandview Hotel tonight. It was just a table full of drinks and we"re all pretty close colleagues. It was very boring if you are alone at home. Why don"t you come with me?"
"It"s the banquet again. Grandview Hotel? Didn"t you go there a few days ago? Why did you go there again? There is no other place in this city to eat? The food there is very expensive."
"What can I do? My boss likes to eat abalone there."
"Abalone? Hmm.. I"ll take a look at it in the evening. If I have nothing to do, I will accompany you there. I don"t want you to keep nagging at me and telling me that your colleagues think you don"t have a family. You stinking brat, you like to use your sister"s unwillingness as a shield."
"Do you want me to pick you up on the way?"
"No need. I"ll go there myself. It"s pretty convenient for me to take a taxi from my company."
As she spoke, Sister Pan Yun glanced at her. "Grandview Hotel? Isn"t Grandview Hotel is pretty famous with big figures? I wonder how many leaders will stay there today."
Sister Pan Yun immediately mouthed to Jiang Ruolan, "If you go, you must find a chance to interview them."
Jiang Ruolan nodded helplessly.
Once the working hours ended, Jiang Ruolan immediately walked out of the company and was about to call a taxi when Wan Shoushan suddenly grabbed her hand. "I hear you are the sister of the director of the business department at Emerson Group?"
Jiang Ruolan was stunned. "Brother Wan knows my brother?"
Wan Shoushan smiled. "He is one of the messengers from the business world, and we used to communicate with each other due to work matters. Director Jiang is a good person, I just heard that you are his sister recently. He said that he would bring someone with him tonight, so it must be you?"
"Let"s get in the car. I will also go to the Grandview Hotel. The company leader and I are old friends. He will never forget to invite me to partic.i.p.ate in all the banquets."
Jiang Ruolan wanted to refuse him, but then she thought they were heading in the same direction, so she quickly changed her mind, got into the car, and thanked him politely.
They both chatted politely along the way, and although Wan Shoushan usually took care of her, he was still a man in his thirties. Recently at the company, after Wan Shoushan found out that she was single, he paid more and more attention to her. On the surface, it may show that he only treats her as his subordinate, but no one was stupid.
If one wanted to avoid suspicion, they couldn"t avoid it too much. Sometimes, avoiding suspicion was also a form of knowledge.
When they arrived at the Grandview Hotel, Jiang Yijun was already waiting for Jiang Ruoalan outside the hotel. When he saw Wan Shoushan, who was standing beside Jiang Ruolan, he was stunned for a moment and then walked over, "Brother Wan, did you do this on purpose? You never show up the last two times we gathered together. But this time, when I asked my Jiang Ruolan to come here, you tagged along with her. Are you trying to compete with me?"
