Chapter 1213 Am I being too polite?
It was quite late when the meeting ended, so Jiang Manman called her family's driver in advance to take her home after get off work.
Jiang Manman was unaware that Huo Yanchen's car was also following behind at a leisurely pace, and he himself didn't know what he was trying to achieve.
In the past, Huo Yanchen would never have wasted his time like this, but now, he feels better doing these things.
But Huo Yanchen knew that he could only gamble for a while, not forever.
He was like a perverted voyeur in the shadows, spying on everything about Jiang Manman, wanting to know how things were going between her and that person, whether they had met in private, and whether they were really together.
But he couldn't possibly know everything about Jiang Manman; he couldn't possibly monitor her phone.
Huo Yanchen could sense that Jiang Manman seemed to be drifting further and further away from him.
This is clearly what he wanted, and it would give Jiang's father an explanation, so why is he not happy at all?
Using work to keep Jiang Manman occupied is not a long-term solution.
Jiang Manman also noticed that her workload had increased recently. She even suspected that Huo Yanchen was targeting her, but she didn't seem to have offended Huo Yanchen recently. She had been very obedient lately.
Jiang Manman has already secured this project; they've signed a contract with a new company, and everything went exceptionally smoothly.
The other party was also eager to develop and urgently needed investment. They also needed to cooperate with the Huo family to make their company famous and wanted to use the cooperation with the Huo family to make more connections. Therefore, this time, they gave up a considerable amount of benefits to the Huo family.
Wang Fang also told Jiang Manman, "Manman, you did a great job on this project. Let's all go out and celebrate tonight."
"Sister Fang, I'm just an intern. It's not really appropriate to celebrate with me. Besides, this project is a collective effort." Jiang Manman said apologetically.
Other employees nearby said, "This is our company tradition. We celebrate whoever does a good job on a project. So what if you're an intern? This is what you deserve. Everyone has seen what you've done during this time. I want to learn from you."
Jiang Manman was very happy. This was her first step into the workplace, and she was very satisfied with how she had done.
But Jiang Manman knew that wasn't enough. Huo's employees were all very capable, each one was one in a million, and she still needed to learn more.
During this time, Jiang Manman also talked with her father. Her business ideas have gradually matured, and her father was so moved that he almost cried, saying that his daughter has grown up.
The restaurant their department chose was quite large, with many people celebrating in a large private room.
Jiang Manman was also happy and drank quite a bit of wine. The atmosphere was quite good. Jiang Manman drank too much and went outside to the corridor to get some fresh air and rest.
Unexpectedly, in the next private room, Liang Chen also came out with a big smile on his face, arm in arm with another person.
That man was the chief secretary of the company that Huo rejected, and the one who had been in contact with Jiang Manman about the project.
It seems that Liang Chen had a good chat with them.
Both of them saw Jiang Manman. Liang Chen was stunned, not expecting Jiang Manman to appear here.
Jiang Manman hasn't seen them yet, but thinking about the project she's completed, she smiles brightly.
Liang Chen was captivated by Jiang Manman's smile, while the secretary was also taken aback. Looking at her like this, Jiang Manman was quite beautiful.
The secretary was clearly drunk; he called out loudly, "Miss Jiang."
Jiang Manman turned around and saw two familiar people over there.
Liang Chen pulled him back: "Mr. Chen, you've had too much to drink."
Chen Bo said, "I'm not drunk. I just wanted to say a few words to Miss Jiang. Miss Jiang, what brings you here? Did you come to see me? Do you regret it and want to continue cooperating with our company? Let me tell you, it's all too late. Our company has already signed a contract with the Liang Group. You have no chance."
"Really? Congratulations then." Jiang Manman didn't want to see the two of them.
Just as I was about to leave, the two men stopped me again.
Chen Bo said, "Don't rush, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Since Miss Jiang has already come all this way, why don't we go to our private room and have a couple of drinks?"
"No, I'm not familiar with you." Jiang Manman said coldly.
She was about to leave again, but Chen Bo stopped her again: "What are you pretending for? I heard from President Liang that you are too proud of yourself. You don't even look down on someone like President Liang. I heard that you like Huo Yanchen, right? You're Huo Yanchen's lapdog. How could someone like Huo Yanchen possibly look at you? Even if you had something going on, it was just playing around."
"I think you're quite pretty. If you don't like Mr. Liang, what do you think of me? To be honest, I've had my eye on you for a while now. Your disdainful look really got me all hot. I like to say no in bed."
"By the way, have you slept with Huo Yanchen? Are you already worn out? How about I teach you first, so you'll have more skills to please Huo Yanchen? What do you say?"
Each word was harsher than the last, and Liang Chen stood silently beside him, letting Chen Bo say whatever he wanted.
"Snapped!"
Jiang Manman raised her hand and slapped Chen Chong hard across the face.
"You dare hit me?" Chen Chong covered his face.
Jiang Manman said, "What are you barking about? You scum, you can be beaten if you want, but all you do is insult women and spread dirty rumors about them. You're not even human. What's there to be proud of in being a man? You're all a bunch of snakes and rats. You even dare to compare yourself to Huo Yanchen. Huo Yanchen is not as disgusting as you!"
Human species are indeed diverse; Jiang Manman now finds these people disgusting.
As she was about to leave, Liang Chen grabbed her arm: "Manman, you've gone a bit too far. Apologize to Chen Chong."
"I should apologize to him?" Jiang Manman found it outrageous.
Liang Chen said, "You hit someone and insulted him, shouldn't you apologize? As long as you apologize, Chen Chong won't pursue the matter."
Jiang Manman looked at Liang Chen with disappointment, then shook him off and slapped him across the face again.
"Did I give you too much credit?"
"Liang Chen, when did you become so unable to distinguish right from wrong? Do you also think that what he said is right, or do you also think that men are superior to women? If you think I'm wrong, then let's pretend we've never met."
Jiang Manman felt it was a pity that she was about to lose a friend.
But if Liang Chen changes, then losing such a friend doesn't seem like a big loss.
Liang Chen used to be such a gentleman, how could he be like this now? She really wished she had never met him.
