The guests had already reached the halfway mark. As the host of the banquet, it was naturally time for Ji Xiaohan to show himself. He leisurely walked down the stairs gracefully.
As soon as he went down the stairs, someone came up to greet him. Ji Xiaohan hung up his professional smile and walked towards him. The guests who arrived were all familiar with him, some of them were unfamiliar.
Amongst them, there were naturally a few of his good brothers. However, the reason for everyone coming here was because they were all sociable, so the good brothers did not gather together to chat. They each found their own business circle friends and sat or stood together to chat.
Ji Xiaohan stared at Gao Yue from a distance. Gao Yue seemed a little lonely because she wasn"t in this circle and no one knew her, and she pretended to be aloof and didn"t greet anyone. She was holding a gla.s.s of wine and drinking quietly, her beautiful eyes occasionally looking in Ji Xiaohan"s direction.
Ji Xiaohan, along with Lu Qing and a wine cup in his hand, clinked gla.s.ses with others along the way. His handsome face was full of sincerity. When a woman saw him, she couldn"t help but be enchanted by him.
Some men were born with their own charisma, and the male hormone was something that could not be concealed even if they wanted to. Just a casual raise of their eyebrows or a curling of their lips was enough for a woman to remember for her entire life.
Ji Xiaohan had that kind of charm. Even though he had an official fake smile on his face, he was still breathtakingly handsome.
"young master, left!" Lu Qing reminded him in his ear.
Only then did Ji Xiaohan pretend to walk towards Gao Yue. Gao Yue didn"t expect Ji Xiaohan to walk towards her direction. Her breathing became sluggish as if her body was electrocuted. She felt itchy and excited.
When Ji Xiaohan accidentally saw her, he immediately walked towards Gao Yue with his long, straight legs.
"Tsk, isn"t this the female reporter who spoke so sharp last time? It"s such a coincidence that we meet again. " Ji Xiaohan pretended to only discover her. Moreover, there was a hint of coldness in his tone.
Gao Yue"s face was full of surprise, but inside, she was elated. As expected, she left a deep impression on Ji Xiaohan.
"Boss Ji, I am truly sorry. The topic I asked that day was a bit too sensitive." Gao Yue immediately acted like she knew her mistake and apologized sincerely.
"Heh, I thought that journalists like you would not apologize for missing words. You have really made me look at you in a new light!" Ji Xiaohan expressed his admiration for her att.i.tude.
Gao Yue was secretly happy. This was the knowledge of high EQ. If she gave in, then men would feel pity for her. Did Ji Xiaohan"s praise of her mean that he had a good impression of her?
Sometimes, I am just a straightforward person. But when I think about it later on, it seems that I have indeed made you unhappy. Boss Ji, I will toast you with a gla.s.s of wine, please be magnanimous and forgive me this time. Gao Yue quickly struck the iron while it was still hot and looked at Ji Xiaohan with a pitiful expression.
Ji Xiaohan pa.s.sed the cup over. Gao Yue quickly touched the rim of his cup: "Thank you Boss Ji for your magnanimity!" Gao Yue immediately smiled gratefully.
"Miss, what is your surname?" Ji Xiaohan pretended to know her formally for the first time.
"My name is Gao, Gao Yue!" Gao Yue immediately introduced herself with extreme tenderness.
"I admire Miss Gao"s enthusiasm towards work. I wonder if you would be interested in working at my company? My company has been developing quite well recently, my position is empty, and I am looking everywhere for talents. If Miss Gao is interested, please contact me!" After Ji Xiaohan said that, he reached into his pocket, took out his name card and handed it to Gao Yue.
Gao Yue couldn"t believe her own ears. Ji Xiaohan took the initiative to invite her to work at his company? And he gave her his personal card.
"Boss Ji is really embarra.s.sing. To tell you the truth, I just found a reporter job, and it"s only been a short while, and I"m already highly regarded by Boss Ji, I"m rather flattered, I will take the business card first, I hope Boss Ji can give me a few days time to think about it!" Gao Yue had actually already agreed in her heart, but she still wanted to make some excuses, showing that she didn"t really want to work at his company that much. This would only add to her impression of him.
"There is no need for Xiao Yue to give me an answer so quickly. After all, talent is hard to come by, I only have this hope. However, if Miss Gao has no intention to join my company, I will not make it difficult for you." Ji Xiaohan showed a thirst for talent.
"Alright, then I"ll consider it and give Boss Ji a reply. Thank you for your appreciation!" Gao Yue was elated. She felt as if she had won a great prize, and was so excited that she was about to shout out.
She was really too happy. She knew that she wouldn"t have come here for nothing, she finally got something. Being able to get Ji Xiaohan"s personal business card was a great honor, which also meant that she could freely contact him.
Ji Xiaohan only treated the name card as bait and wanted to lure Gao Yue over.
Ji Xiaohan"s acting skills were quite good. After all, he was playing all sorts of roles every day. Only when he got home could he take off his mask and use his real face to get along with his family.
"young master, that woman, Gao Yue, has pretty high EQ. She was very calm just now, you really shouldn"t underestimate her." Lu Qing a.n.a.lyzed in a low voice beside Ji Xiaohan"s ear.
"Indeed, I can"t underestimate her. I just don"t know who ordered her to do so." Ji Xiaohan sneered.
The banquet continued, but Gao Yue did not stay for long, because she was indeed out of place in this circle. Although she could make use of this opportunity to get to know a lot of people, those people were not her current goals, and she had no intention of acknowledging them.
So she left.
She went to a friend"s store and called Zhang Lu using her friend"s landline.
"Department Head Zhang, congratulations to me. I"ve already obtained Ji Xiaohan"s business card. This will also be the key for me to enter his company." Gao Yue said complacently, unable to hide her happiness.
Her face sank, but she did not show much joy. She only gave a faint "En", "Then I really have to congratulate you. I thought you were going to give up. Who would have thought that things will turn for the better again."
"Department Head Zhang, are you that unconfident in me? "I"ve said it before, I will use any means at my disposal to achieve my goal." Hearing that the other party was unable to share her joy, Gao Yue immediately lost all interest.
"Xiao Yue, in fact, I feel that you might not be suitable for this job. After all, this is not the only way out for you." Zhang Lu wanted to persuade her to give up, because it wasn"t hard to find another woman to replace her.
"Department Head Zhang, what"s the meaning of this? I finally got Ji Xiaohan"s line, and you want me to give up?" Gao Yue was instantly displeased. She felt that her effort had not been acknowledged.
Zhang Lu suddenly became mute. He wanted to confess his love for her to Gao Yue, but those words were stuck in his throat.
Zhang Lu divorced a few years ago. Now, he was alone and just over 40 years old, so he could be considered to be in his prime. He felt that his age wasn"t a problem with Gao Yue, moreover, he liked her, so he would naturally pave the way for her career and wouldn"t let her down.
But now, Zhang Lu was in a dilemma.
"Xiao Yue, I didn"t tell you to give up. I just felt that it was a bit risky for you to do this, what if Ji Xiaohan was scheming against you? Aren"t you afraid? "Offending Ji Xiaohan won"t end well." Zhang Lu immediately threatened her.
"Department Head Zhang, you still don"t have confidence in me, right? My EQ is very high, so don"t worry about it. I have my own way of doing things. After Gao Yue finished speaking, she actually hung up the phone and snorted with a resentful expression.
Zhang Lu looked at the phone that was hung up. He was so a
oyed that he wanted to smash something. After so many years, he finally found a woman, but he had to personally send her to another man"s bed. He was in a bad mood.
