return of the king

The next day, seeing that it was time for work, Zhou Lixi hadn't come to work yet.

A secretary nodded knowingly, "The president missed work again."

The secretary-general had been watching the other secretaries looking at the time and the door with great interest, and then said: "I'm sorry to tell you, the president didn't skip work, but he asked for leave. He called me last night and told me."

"real or fake?"

"No way?!"

The secretaries screamed in disbelief.

They already believed that the president was not informed of the truth until he was absent from work again, which made it difficult for them to accept.

"Really, I was taken aback when I heard about it last night."

"What's the reason for the CEO's leave? Blind date? Or engagement, or notarization?"

The secretary-general gave the speaker a blank look, and said, "Do you think the president will say this kind of reason? His reason is the same as last time, the same as illness!"

At that time, Zhou Lixi quickly asked for a day off because of illness, and then hung up the phone immediately.

But judging from his angry tone, he didn't look sick at all, and he didn't hide the fact that he was not sick at all.

"That is to say, you have known about this for a long time, but you have not told us?" A male secretary said, with a vicious look of wanting to dismember the Secretary-General.

The Secretary-General said confidently: "Whoever said I didn't tell you, you will know that I said so."

The other secretaries looked at each other in blank dismay, and they knew from the eyes of each other that they were all on the same mind—resolutely not to talk to the secretary-general today.

For a person like the Secretary-General who looks serious but actually loves to gossip and tease others, ignoring him is the greatest punishment for him!

On the other end, the president who was being discussed by the secretaries——Zhou Lixi was stopped by security guards while he was looking for Cao Zuo.

"Sorry, the inside is the staff's lounge, and non-staff members are not allowed to enter." The security guard politely stopped Zhou Lixi from moving forward.

Wearing a brand-name suit and a Rolex watch, no one would think that he is a worker with a monthly income of hundreds of thousands.

Zhou Lixi said indifferently, "I'm here to find someone."

He saw Cao Zuo go inside. If he hadn't been stopped by the security guards, he would have met Cao Zuo by now.

The security guard was so shocked by Zhou Lixi's aura that he was sweating profusely. He bowed and nodded to apologize: "Sorry, it's not the staff who can't enter, unless you call him to come out and pick you up."

Knowing that the other party is a rich son, but he can't break the rules at will.

Zhou Lixi was very dissatisfied.

He just wanted to surprise Cao Zuo, so he didn't call him just now. If he had called Cao Zuo from afar, would he still need to be stopped by the security guard in front of him now? !

It's not that you can't force your way in, but it's easy to cause misunderstanding and commotion, and Zhou Lixi doesn't want to lose face.

In desperation, he had no choice but to dial the mobile phone number Cao Zuo gave him last night.

"Come out, I'm outside." Zhou Lixi said a few words simply.

Hearing the familiar voice, anger and resentment rushed to my heart.Cao Zuo tried hard to control his emotions, and asked calmly, "Where are you? Where should I go? Today is Monday, so you should be at work at this time, and I'm going to start work too. That's it..."

Cao Zuo wanted to say "goodbye" and hung up the phone, but was interrupted by Zhou Lixi: "I'm outside the lounge now, you come out and take me in."

It's not honorable not to be stopped by security guards. Zhou Lixi doesn't want people to know, let alone people who are interested in him.

"Outside?" Cao Zuo had just changed his clothes. He tidied up his clothes, went to the door and opened the door. Zhou Lixi was not seen outside.

"You cheated me, you weren't at the door of the lounge!" Cao Zuo said angrily.

"Not inside, but a little further outside, at the door outside all the lounges."

"I hope you won't lie to me again this time!"

With that said, Cao Zuo walked out of the lounge.

He had just changed his clothes and was going to go out, but now he was just checking to see if that person was really outside.

Zhou Lixi said lightly: "I never lied to you."

After confirming that Zhou Lixi was indeed outside, Cao Zuo's bad mood remained unchanged.

"Why are you here? Today is Monday, a working day." Cao Zuo said coldly, without any surprise in his tone.

Sensing Cao Zuo's resistance, Zhou Lixi frowned and said, "I'm here to accompany you, but you don't seem to welcome me?"

"Tch, I'm not a child. I don't need you to accompany me at work. You will only hinder me when you come."

Zhou Lixi's face darkened, she wanted to turn her head away immediately but she couldn't bear it, she wanted to stay by Cao Zuo's side but she couldn't hold back her face.

It just so happened that the person in charge of the sales of the car that Cao Zuo endorsed at the auto show came at this time. When he saw Zhou Lixi, he immediately walked past.

"Mr. Zhou."

His foreign company is determined to develop its business in China. If it can get help from Mr. Zhou, it will be even more powerful and get twice the result with half the effort.

Zhou Lixi took the lead slightly in response.

After thinking about it, he said, "Take me to the show car at the exhibition and explain it to me."

"Yes, yes." The person in charge quickly agreed, and made a "please" gesture to Zhou Lixi.

Zhou Lixi made an excuse in order to stay. The person in charge didn't know what he meant by the so-called explanation, so he explained clearly from the planning of the auto show to the agency company, performance, and price of each car.Let the car salesperson tell Zhou Lixi what he didn't understand.He was always worried, fearing that he would not be able to satisfy Zhou Lixi.

However, he also gradually discovered that no matter where Zhou Lixi went to the venue, he always swept in Cao Zuo's direction from time to time.

Judging from Zhou Lixi's performance, he doesn't seem to be very keen on sports cars.Since what he loves is not cars, then his goal is Cao Zuo.

"That's the exhibition area for our company's cars, Mr. Zhou, do you want to go over and have a look?" the person in charge asked carefully.

The person in charge didn't know what the relationship between Zhou Lixi and Cao Zuo was, but he could find that Zhou Lixi seemed to be trying to please Cao Zuo. Maybe it was because an offended friend wanted to make up for it or for other reasons. Generally speaking, it was right to bring him to Cao Zuo. .

Zhou Lixi nodded, indicating yes.

When they arrived near Cao Zuo, the person in charge talked endlessly about the benefits of his own car, and finally took the opportunity to talk about his company, and even mentioned that the company intends to develop in China, but he didn't know how much Zhou Lixi would listen to, and would not Will help.

Seeing a group of "crazy bees, waves and butterflies" surrounding Cao Zuo and taking photos with cameras, Zhou Lixi said coldly, "They are not allowed to take pictures!"

It's okay to be a car model for them to watch, but they keep taking photos of Cao Zuo, and I know that these photos will become their lustful items!

"This..." The person in charge was very embarrassed.

Taking pictures is also one of the means of publicity, not to mention the super effect, doing so will definitely offend a large number of buyers.

Zhou Lixi said in a non-negotiable tone: "Put away their cameras and return them after the auto show is over. Go right away!"

"Eh..." The person in charge wiped his sweat frequently.

Under the oppression of Zhou Lixi's eyes, he reluctantly complied.He also gave Cao Zuo a look and asked Cao Zuo to help appease the crowd.

But the matter of putting away the camera had just been suppressed, and the person in charge just walked up to Zhou Lixi, and he made an unreasonable request: "Even put away the mobile phone."

"..." The person in charge wished he could faint.

Just put away the camera. Although they took pictures with their mobile phones, it was too much to put away the mobile phones they used to communicate.

Before the person in charge could figure out how to solve it, Zhou Lixi said again: "They are too close, the 'protection range' should be opened a little bit."

"Yes!" The person in charge left quickly.

He was afraid that the longer he stayed with Zhou Lixi, the more demands he would have.

He can do the latter of the two points that Zhou Lixi said just now, but putting away the mobile phones of the onlookers is really a heinous thing, so he has been procrastinating.

Next, as soon as Zhou Lixi thought of something, he immediately asked the person in charge to do as he said.

Because of his many requests throughout the morning, many troubles were caused in the exhibition area of ​​the car endorsed by Cao Zuo, resulting in a sharp drop in the sales of the car, and the onlookers shouted indignantly.

The person in charge gradually lost his face.It's just that I dare not say Zhou Lixi's fault.

The first person to get angry was naturally Cao Zuo, and only he had the ability to dare to defend Kang Zhou Lixi.

During the lunch break, Cao Zuo dragged Zhou Lixi to the lounge to scold him.

"Are you mentally ill or what? It's none of your business if I'm a car model! You can't do this, you can't do that, you have to intervene in everything. Who are you to me? Are you the owner of this kind of car?!"

Zhou Lixi stroked Cao Zuo's face with his hand, rubbing it lightly, "Don't use this appearance and temperament to swear."

Cao Zuo was furious, "If you reduce the sales of cars, it will also affect my income!"

"I can make up for the lost money." He is ready to compensate for the loss, otherwise he would not ask the person in charge to do this or that over and over again.

"I don't want your money! What's wrong with me working hard to make money? I'm not your MB, so I don't want your money!"

After a moment of silence, Zhou Lixi said, "If it wasn't the money I gave you, but the commission from the sale of the car, you would have taken it, wouldn't you?"

"Yes! But you can't buy our car through anyone. I know you don't need a car at all, and I don't want your charity!!" Although Cao Zuo didn't know what Zhou Lixi was up to, but if he could meet this condition, he would It can also be accepted.
