However, before Xia Qingning had time to think, Zhang Shaojun suddenly grabbed her hand, shook it, with a gentle face,

"It's not decided yet, but when it's settled, you and your brother will come to drink our wedding wine."

Zhang Shaojun didn't know Xia Zi, so everything he said was aimed at Gu Qiaoan.

Gu Qiaoan didn't know if she had listened to them, so she glanced at them lightly, then turned and left.

"Hey, An'an, where are you going, wait for me."

Seeing Gu Qiaoan leave, Xia Zi didn't stay any longer, and immediately chased after her.

When Xia Qingning saw that Gu Qiaoan had finally left, she felt relieved, and then slapped Zhang Shaojun hard,

"What's the matter with you? When did I promise you to get married?"

"Try it? What if Gu Qiaoan gets jealous?"

"It seems that you tried the wrong person, and she doesn't seem to care."

Xia Qingning lowered her head sadly.

Zhang Shaojun smiled and slowly leaned back on the back seat with a thoughtful expression.

Xia Qingning originally didn't want to let herself think wildly, but when she saw Gu Qiaoan, she couldn't help but have various guesses.

Since reuniting with her, she hasn't said a word to herself, which is probably the real forgetting.

Forget that they were together, forget that they were in love.

"What, disappointed?"

Seeing her depressed mood, Zhang Shaojun asked while pouring water for her.

Xia Qingning shook her head,

"I'm not too disappointed, because there is no hope."

After the two of them finished their meal, on the way back, Xia Qingning's cell phone rang suddenly, and it was Wen Jiang who saw that it was Wen Jiang. Although it was a bit strange, she still picked it up.

"Miss Xia, I'm your editor Wen Jiang, do you remember me?"

Xia Qingning smiled slightly and said,

"of course I remember."

Wen Jiang over there laughed when he heard this,

"I don't know if Ms. Xia is free tomorrow. If so, can I come to the company? Last time I talked with you about publishing, and I want to talk to you about some specific details of the contract."

"Do I have to go there?"

"Yes, it's a bit inconvenient on the phone, so I need to confirm with you in person."

Xia Qingning hesitated for a while before agreeing. Anyway, staying at home is boring, so it's better to go out for a walk to pass the time, and it's still a profitable business.

"can."

"Well, I'll wait for you."

The next day, Xia Qingning packed herself up and went to the city center according to the address sent by Wen Jiang. After getting off the car, she saw the Yalin Company standing not far away.

It is the largest book publishing company in this city. Due to the wide variety of books it covers, some well-known writers not only from China but also from abroad have also been hired to Yalin Company, and its own company will directly publish and set prices.

Therefore, Yalin not only does a very good job in book publishing, but also the diversity of books makes it popular among readers.

When she entered the company, it was the rush hour for going to work, and many people followed her into the company. When she came out of the huge revolving door, Xia Qingning was almost pushed down by the people behind, but fortunately She was wearing flat shoes, so she stood up right away.

But the people next to her were obviously not so lucky. Because they were wearing high heels, they were immediately pushed to the ground by the crowd. Seeing this, Xia Qingning quickly stepped forward to help her up. The girl in front of her was wearing a white slim-fitting professional attire. It was because of the pain from the fall, and his face was a little pale.

"Are you okay?" Xia Qingning asked with concern, and helped her up.

The girl who was lifted up staggered and stood on the ground, and said with some embarrassment,

"I'm fine, thank you."

At this moment, Xia Qingning slowly saw her face clearly. The delicate face, the clear eyes on the small face blinked slightly, the corners of the mouth hung with a forced smile, and the long hair in the shawl was casually scattered on the shoulders, revealing inadvertently A gentle temperament.

"Which floor do you want to go to, or I'll help you up first." Xia Qingning asked.

The girl was a little embarrassed after hearing this,

"This... this is not good, it's too much trouble for you, I can go up by myself."

Xia Qingning looked at her feet. The ankle was obviously swollen, and she didn't even dare to touch the ground. It might be difficult for her to go up by herself. She looked at her watch and saw that the time she had agreed with Wen Jiang was still early, so she decided to send her off. She went up first and let her go up alone. Xia Qingning was really worried.

"It's okay, I'll just send you to the door, it's not convenient for you, let's go."

Seeing that she couldn't refuse Xia Qingning's kindness, the woman had no choice but to let her help her up. In fact, she didn't want to trouble others, but Xia Qingning took such good care of her, but she really couldn't bear to refuse, and her feet hurt too. It was so bad that she had to send it up.

Xia Qingning asked the girl which floor she was going to, and it was on her own floor. She couldn't help but sigh, it seems that God destined me to help her.

The elevator was very crowded. When Xia Qingning entered the elevator, she carefully helped the girl to the corner of the elevator, and kept protecting the girl inside by forming a triangle with her hands.

Although the elevator was crowded, Xia Qingning persisted and did not let anyone bump into her. When she got out of the elevator, Xia Qingning carefully supported the girl, and walked her step by step according to the place she said.

When reaching the door, Xia Qingning stopped, "I'll take you here, go in carefully." The girl hurriedly grabbed her hand when she heard this,

"Why are you leaving? It's already at the door, let's go in and have a cup of tea. I have nothing to thank you for."

Xia Qingning smiled, waved her hand and said,

"It's okay, just go in, I'll leave first if I have something to do, bye."

After finishing speaking, Xia Qingning trotted all the way and disappeared at the corner of the corridor.

The girl was about to call her to stop, but was taken aback by the door that opened suddenly in front of her. Seeing the familiar person in front of her, she stood there dumbfounded.

Gu Qiaoan who opened the door looked up and down, and saw the redness and swelling on his feet at a glance, couldn't help frowning and said,

"what happened?"

The girl panicked when she heard the person in front of her ask her,

"It's okay, I just... just accidentally fell downstairs,"

After finishing speaking, she lowered her head in embarrassment, and the expression on Gu Qiaoan's face became even more displeased when she heard this.

"Don't you know to call me if you fall down?"

After speaking, he bent down and carried the girl in front of him into the room, put her on the sofa, and squatted down to examine her feet carefully.

The girl carefully stared at Gu Qiaoan's expression, not daring to speak.

In the next second, the person has stood up, walked to his desk and picked up the phone.

"Wang Xu, go outside and buy some anti-swelling potion, and come back, and bring it to Yalin's office."

After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone immediately, and turned around to look at the girl in front of him. The girl was obviously frightened by the expression on her face at this moment, so she sat in her seat and did not dare to move. Gu Qiaoan sighed and turned to her. went and stood before her,

"Call me first if you have anything to do next time."

When the girl heard this, she slowly raised her head, looked at her face, and whispered,

"sorry that I had you worried."

"It's okay, just pay attention next time. Wang Xu has already gone to buy medicine. After you put the medicine on, ask him to send you back first. Don't go to today's meeting. If there is nothing to do at the meeting, I will leave early to see you .”

After listening to her words, the girl didn't dare to refute, and nodded obediently.

After seeing off the girl who just fell, Xia Qingning hurriedly took the elevator to the fifteenth floor downstairs. Fortunately, there were few people, and Xia Qingning came to Wen Jiangsuo's office after a while.She knocked on the door, and after waiting for a while, the door was opened from the inside. A strange man wearing black glasses stood in front of the door, looking at her suspiciously.

"Who are you looking for, Miss?"

"I've come to talk about book publishing. Is this the office?"

The man smiled and said,

"Since you know that you are here to talk about the publication of the book, don't you know that you are late?"

"Huh? Late."

Xia Qingning was a little surprised. She obviously came here on time, so she shouldn't be late.

"This one……"

Xia Qingning looked at her watch, and suddenly thought that Zhang Shaojun fiddled with her watch two days ago when he was bored, didn't he set my time back?

Xia Qingning stood there dumbfounded, not knowing how to explain.

Xu Shiwen Jiang heard her voice in the office, and hurried out, hehe said with a smile,

"Editor Li, I was the last one to notify Ms. Xia, so I already told her that she can come later. Don't worry about such trivial matters."

Li Ran looked at Wen Jiang at the side, then at Xia Qingning standing in front of him, turned around and walked in, Wen Jiang smiled embarrassingly.

But she never expected that this was far from over. During the process of discussing the contract, Li Ran kept pointing at her fault of being late, satirizing her overtly and secretly,

It made Xia Qingning upset. Isn't it just a little late, as for it?

But Li Ran just said seriously with a straight face,

"I hope that Ms. Xia can seriously face her mistakes. Although you are the only one who is late, you are not the only one who signed the contract. You want so many of us to wait for you alone. Does Ms. Xia think this is very appropriate?

Or Ms. Xia is used to making others wait. Sorry, this is a company, not your own home. I hope Ms. Xia can give you the minimum respect. Respect for others is respect for yourself. "

It was the first time Xia Qingning was said to be so shameless. No matter what Zhang Shaojun said about her, Xia Qingning at least felt that she could bear it, but now, she felt that she was really tricked, so she had no choice but to turn around and go Lie to him, making Wen Jiang laugh secretly from the sidelines. Usually, he is her editor-in-chief, but he is used to being ridiculed. This time it is rare to see her deflated, and I feel really happy.

At this time, Xia Qingning's lungs were about to explode, and she tried her best to resist the urge to get mad, because she knew what she was here for this time, and not everything could be done according to her temperament.

But Xia Qingning, who was silent at the side, still couldn't escape Li Ran's poisonous tongue,

"Why is Ms. Xia silent? If you have any opinions, you still have to put them forward. Otherwise, there will be something wrong with the contract, but it will not be our company's responsibility. I hope you can take the problems I mentioned seriously. , rather than such an indifferent attitude.

Our company is open-minded, and within the permissible range, we will try our best to give you the best interests.

If you keep silent like this, the problem between the two cannot be resolved.Even though you're late, I want to be fair and let everyone have their say. "

When Xia Qingning heard this, she really had the urge to hit the wall, but she couldn't be angry, she was not in good health.

Xia Qingning held her hand fiercely, and it took a while before she spoke,

"Hmph, editor-in-chief Li is really eloquent, no wonder you have to choose articulate people to negotiate with when signing a contract, but this is the first time I've seen a representative like you who is so unreasonable and unforgiving.

Since you want me to give an opinion, well, I will talk about it now, "

Wen Jiang raised his eyebrows and came.
