Substitute groom: The president's husband is a bit draggy

It wasn't until Lu Tingshen handed him the signed contract that the stone hanging in Ji Zhenxiong's heart finally fell to the ground.

He made some flattering remarks, and found that Lu Tingshen's complexion didn't seem very good-looking, so he left wisely.

After Ji Zhenxiong left, Lu Ting sat on the boss's chair, his deep brows had thoughts that he couldn't hide.

Regarding the fact that Ji Yan avoided talking about it with him, Lu Ting always had a knot in his heart, and his mood was a little dull because of it.

After a while, he picked up the phone and connected to Ji Yan's number, but no one answered for a long time.

Lu Ting was a little annoyed, when did he start caring about this woman?
In order to expel this feeling from his heart, he simply called his assistant into the office.

"Find out the earliest flight to Los Angeles for me." He instructed blankly.

The assistant was stunned. Thinking that Lu Tingshen had no plans to travel recently, he couldn't help asking inexplicably, "Mr. Lu, are you going on a business trip abroad?"

Lu Ting was a little absent-minded, staring at the documents spread out on the desktop, but Ji Yan was still lingering in his mind.

After a few seconds of silence, he responded with a cool voice: "Yes, I'd better go and see the last project in person."

The assistant was even more puzzled by Lu Tingshen's sudden decision.

After all, he is the dignified president of the Lu family. For the investigation of the project, he can just send any subordinate of the company there, and there is no need for him to travel all the way.

"Mr. Lu, if you are interested in that project, you can send Lin Jie there. She often runs around." The assistant carefully put forward his suggestion.

However, she didn't know what was in Lu Tingshen's mind. She went abroad to investigate projects because she just wanted to devote herself to her work.

So I knew the answer without saying anything. Lu Ting refused her good words of persuasion without even thinking about it, and replied firmly: "No, don't ask so many questions, go and book a ticket for me, the sooner the better."

Only then did the assistant see that the boss's mood was obviously not right, so he picked up his phone to look for the flight.

After a while, the assistant showed a troubled expression on his face, and said falteringly: "Mr. Lu, the nearest flight is at [-]:[-] p.m...."

"Well, book a ticket." Lu Ting's face was cold, and he ordered without thinking.

But the assistant realized that the time was really rushed. After all, the inspection project was not an urgent matter.

"Mr. Lu, this flight is quite tense. I'm afraid I won't be able to book a first-class cabin. In fact, there is another flight at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning. Otherwise, you..."

The assistant told a little lie here, just because he didn't want Lu Tingshen to spend the night on the plane too hard.

Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Lu Tingshen made a decision and ordered without thinking: "You can also book business class, as soon as possible!"

In this way, the assistant found that he couldn't persuade him, so he had no choice but to obey, and lied that he had swiped out of the first class again to perfunctory.

After the assistant left, Lu Tingshen picked up the phone and saw that there was no movement on the screen.

In fact, he was expecting Ji Yan to call back after seeing the missed call, but unfortunately he was disappointed.

She was avoiding him on purpose?
With a sullen face, Lu Ting put down his phone as if nothing had happened, and after processing the remaining documents, he went on a business trip abroad without saying a word.

But at this moment, Ji Yan is busy with work.

As for Lu Tingshen's call, because she was concentrating on her work and put her phone on silent, she didn't see it at all.

Although the company was not peaceful, but because her personal ability was indeed eye-catching, in the end Minister Chen had to let go of his prejudice and invite her to the office for a talk.

Ji Yan walked in and asked him politely: "Mr. Chen, hello, is there anything you want to arrange for me?"

Minister Chen admired Ji Yan's excellent ability and talent very much, and replied with a sudden smile: "Xiao Ji, sit down first, I have an idea to talk to you."

Ji Yan did as he did, came to the sofa and sat down slowly, wondering why Minister Chen suddenly came to her.

Minister Chen looked at her well-proportioned and slim figure, and her elegant face was dignified and generous.

In all fairness, Ji Yan is outstanding both in appearance and business ability. If she can be promoted, it will definitely be of great benefit to the company.

"Xiao Ji, you should have heard about the design department's campaign recently, right?" Minister Chen asked meaningfully.

When Ji Yan turned her eyes, she herself worked in the design department, so of course she knew about it.It's just that Ji Rou's tricks behind her back made her isolated by her colleagues.

Not to mention participating in the election, even if you ask your colleagues about it, you will probably be ridiculed.

However, Ji Yan didn't say that he was treated unfairly, but responded calmly: "I've heard about it, but I don't have enough qualifications, so I just want to do my job well."

Hearing her humble words, Minister Chen smiled heartily, and affirmed in a confident tone: "Who said you are not qualified enough? As long as you have the ability, even if you come to work in the company for the first time, you are eligible to participate in the election."

After all, Minister Chen made it clear that he wanted her to come to the office, and solemnly announced: "Xiao Ji, yesterday I specially reserved a spot for you. Don't let me down!"

The words have been made very clear, Ji Yan is not easy to refuse, and she also has a strong enterprising spirit, so she is still happy for this opportunity.

Pausing for a few seconds, Ji Yan smiled and agreed: "Well, since Minister Chen won the quota for me, I'd rather be respectful than obedient and do my best."

When Minister Chen saw that she agreed, a gratified smile appeared on his face again.

"Okay, then this matter is settled. I will go out with you later. If anyone has any objections, I will come forward to help you solve it."

With Minister Chen escorting her, it is said that this election should be a sure thing, and Ji Yan knows this well.

It's just that she felt a little strange, how could Minister Chen's opinion of himself suddenly change so much?

While thinking, Minister Chen got up from his seat, pointed to the door, "Let's go, let's go out."

As the two of them left the office one after the other, Ji Yan who was following behind was still a little apprehensive, always having a premonition of encountering obstacles.

Sure enough, when Minister Chen told Ji Yan that Ji Yan was the last candidate in front of all members of the design department, many people questioned him without exception.

The vice minister and Ji Rou have a good relationship in the company, and they are the first to voice their opposition.

"Minister Chen, it is said that our design department is also full of talents. You don't let Xiao Zheng and Zhao take part in the election, why do you just look at last season's cigarettes?"

Listening to the vice minister's outspoken vote against, Minister Chen could only explain frankly: "First of all, I would like to state that I have no personal reasons for letting Ji Yan be selected, but because she is strong enough to participate in the election. What I care about is not to bury talents. !"

Minister Chen's words were resounding, but several other colleagues who were usually unhappy watching Ji Yan dismissed them.

"That's what I said, but we haven't been working with Ji Yan for a day or two. We can see whether she has the ability, Minister."

"That's right, minister, you can't be partial."

One of the colleagues expressed doubts again, and another immediately joined her team.

At this moment, Ji Yan is not to mention how embarrassing he is by Minister Chen's side, but he doesn't want to swallow his anger every time.

Since some people don't trust her ability, why doesn't she prove herself in front of everyone?

Thinking of this, Ji Yan caught a glimpse of Minister Chen's increasingly serious face, and didn't want him to be too embarrassed, so he took the initiative to stand up.

"Colleagues, a person's ability is not expressed with words, let alone quarreled. If you question me, I am willing to accept the assessment."

Right now, Ji Yan is taking the initiative to talk to herself, and the employees who don't like her are even more disdainful, thinking that she is simply out of control.

"Assessment? Hahaha, with the support of the minister, you are really confident."

"The minister, you said whether you want to take the test of Ji Yan, she proposed it herself."

The employees of the design department seized the opportunity to tease and sarcasm.

Minister Chen didn't want to cause any negative rumors in the company because of this incident, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and accept the objections of his subordinates.

"Well, I had this idea before."

With a sullen face, Minister Chen responded to his subordinates without hesitation, then turned to look at the calm Ji Yan.

"Xiao Ji, it's time to show your ability. I'll come up with a question, and you improvise the design. What do you think?"

Ji Yan did not refuse Minister Chen's proposal, but instead agreed with full confidence.

"Good Minister Chen, if my design doesn't meet the criteria for the election, I will withdraw." Her tone was calm and unhurried.

Next, Minister Chen came up with a question on the spot, and Ji Yan thought for 10 minutes before preparing to draw a design draft on paper.

But Ji Yan didn't expect that those colleagues who targeted her out of disgust and jealousy didn't want her to be a candidate at all.

During this test, someone secretly tampered with it, but Ji Yan didn't know about it.

Picking up the pen and paper, Ji Yan was just about to draw the design he wanted on the paper, but when he slipped his hand, the tip of the pen drew a line crookedly, and found that the line drawn by the pen was extremely not smooth.

Seeing this, the colleagues around laughed.

"Ji Yan, your drawing skills are too bad, you can't even draw straight lines, how do you design like this?"

But since he didn't make a sound, he knew the problem, but he still expressed his design ideas accurately.

After the completion, Minister Chen came over to take a look, and nodded with satisfaction: "Your design is very good, even better than I expected!"

Regarding this comment, Ji Yan pursed her lips and smiled, and replied humbly: "Thank you Minister Chen for your comment, I will continue to work hard."

Minister Chen was very optimistic about Ji Yan's ability, and encouraged him earnestly in front of all his subordinates: "I appreciate your design talent, so you will be the last one. Prepare for the competition!"

In this way, the election was finalized.

But the colleague who did the tricks just now was not convinced, she obviously broke the nib, and even smeared a thin layer of wax on the paper, and in the end, Ji Yan was successfully selected.

But out of a guilty conscience, the other party didn't dare to speak out, so he could only calm down and become even more jealous of Ji Yan.
