It is a coincidence that Christmas Day in 1983 was still a Sunday.
This means that this day is not only a rest day for most people, but also a day when the "Tan Palace", which currently mainly receives domestic guests, has relatively low passenger flow.
So Ning Weimin agreed to Jiang Hui and went to the appointment to meet them after get off work that day.
But what is extremely surprising is that they clearly agreed to meet outside at seven o'clock sharp.
As a result, around 5:30 in the afternoon, Jiang Hui actually came to the "Tan Palace" in person.
At that time, Ning Weimin was in his office. When he saw Jiang Hui knocking on the door, he was completely surprised.
Because not only did he not expect Jiang Hui to come to him on his own initiative.
Moreover, Jiang Hui's dress was flamboyant and gorgeous, which was completely different from the last time he saw her.
Jiang Hui was seen wearing a red wool coat and extremely high heels.
The originally long straight hair has been permed, but it is not let down, but is styled into a ponytail.
What's more, Jiang Hui obviously wore makeup.
In addition to drawing my eyebrows, I also applied eye shadow and lipstick.
So he looked more mature and capable than what he remembered.
But what made Ning Weimin even more unbearable was that Jiang Hui moved over to him as soon as he saw him.
Like a friend he hadn't seen for many years, he put his hand on his desk casually.
"Ouch! We haven't seen you for a year, and I don't even dare to recognize you. You are becoming more and more popular. You are handsome and your signature is handsome. You are much better than my brother, the little division chief."
And when he said this, Jiang Hui looked around and looked at him with admiration and a smile.
Because he was watching closely, Ning Weimin's heart suddenly jumped a few times.
Such eyes cannot hide the romantic and coquettish look, which inevitably makes them look a little frivolous and wanton.
Ning Weimin couldn't figure out the purpose of this woman's visit and the meaning in her eyes.
All I could do was act indifferent, lower my head and pack up the files on the desktop.
"Hey, it's Jiang Hui. Didn't we agree on a time to meet? Why are you still here? Why don't you just call me if you have something to do? If I go out for something, your trip will be in vain."
Jiang Hui knew what was going on. Seeing that Ning Weimin was so cold to her, she stopped trying to get closer to her.
"Things have changed a little. Li Zhong wants to apologize and insists on competing with me to be a host. Let's arrange today's banquet at his home. When I thought that he was the cause of this matter, I should have agreed, so I agreed.
But the road to him is too circuitous. I'm afraid it's hard for you to find him, so I'm here to be your guide. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot the things I brought you..."
As she explained, she took a step back by taking something from her schoolbag, and naturally returned to a distance that was comfortable for Ning Weimin.
Then she took out two newly packaged Casio electronic calculators and placed them on Ning Weimin's desk.
"What does this mean?" Ning Weimin asked puzzledly.
"It's a small gift. You will definitely need it in your office."
Jiang Hui answered naturally.
Ning Weimin was unwilling to accept the things for free.
"Oh, I'm so sorry. Please take it back quickly. It's not appropriate for me to accept your things..."
But Jiang Hui smiled again, and her reasoning was very sound.
"I know you have to be polite to me since we met you. But these two calculators are really not gifts from me. They belong to Li Zhong."
"You also know that this is nothing to him. He always travels to the south. Electronic products worth more than 100 yuan here are sold in Huacheng for only a few dozen yuan."
"So, I don't accept this gift in vain, whether it is to congratulate you on your opening or to apologize to you. This is what Li Zhong should do. To put it bluntly, Li Zhong just wants to curry favor with you. If you don't accept it, he will say
You look down on him."
"And you have to think about it for me. I was entrusted by him to deliver the gift to you, so why should I return it? You will never disregard my face and make them think that I can't even do this little thing.
All right?"
In this way, it was difficult for Ning Weimin to refuse, so he could only say thank you and accept it.
I have to say that Jiang Hui is really a good communicator.
Look at the gift she gave me. It is small, practical and reasonably priced.
It's not a generous gift, nor is it a thin one. It just depends on the extent that Ning Weimin dares to accept it and can accept it.
The most important thing is how to give gifts in a really superb way.
This trick of borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha seems so real.
Not only did it make it harder for Ning Weimin to say no, but he also had to accept her favor.
However, as Ning Weimin, even though this favor is insignificant, there is no need to take it too seriously.
But he had no idea what Jiang Hui wanted to get from him.
From Jiang Hui's visit, we can clearly feel the smell of a routine.
Then he naturally cannot accept it with ease and casually lose a point in the gains and losses of interpersonal relationships.
After thinking about it for a while, he simply imitated the situation to make up for the lost points.
"Here, these Pierre Carton wallets were brought over by our company's foreign distributors at this year's trade fair. There are exactly two of them, so consider them as my return gift. It's not a big deal, so I ask you to hand them over.
For Li Zhong and Jiang Hao."
Ning Weimin opened the drawer, took out two wallets, and placed them on the table for Jiang Hui to take.
Jiang Hui obviously didn't expect him to do this.
His eyes suddenly became wandering, flickering and changing.
I was stunned for a while, and even though I opened my mouth to say something, I finally put the wallet away with a bit of regret.
At this point, the two people have been testing each other's emotions and IQs clearly.
Jiang Hui, a woman who felt good about herself, probably realized at this time that she had underestimated Ning Weimin.
If she really plays a rival role, she is not qualified enough to hold down the male lead.
However, her mood soon calmed down, and she deliberately spoke in a critical manner.
"Manager Ning, don't laugh at me. I'm a bit greedy. How can you not get my share of the gift in return? Then my hard work will not be in vain?"
This is also her advantage. As a woman, gender is a special license to break certain rules.
So there was nothing to do. Ning Weimin apologized and explained that Pierre Carton still mainly sells men's clothing in China.
At the same time, he had no choice but to accept blackmail.
Think carefully about what else is suitable for her.
But at this time Jiang Hui once again showed her bright smile like a flower to show her magnanimity.
"Look, are you serious? I'm kidding you. Let's do this. Before we leave, how about you accompany me to take a walk around your restaurant? This is my first time to such a beautiful Chinese restaurant. I didn't expect that you would be better than
Maxim's is not that bad either. It's so luxurious and there are so many interesting things."
In this case, what else can Ning Weimin do?
He could only fulfill Jiang Hui's wish and accompany her around the restaurant again.
But despite Ning Weimin's passive attitude, he really waited until he left the restaurant.
The conversation between the two people was quite harmonious in terms of feeling and atmosphere, and no one could tell that their friendship was actually just a casual one.
Even Ning Weimin himself has to admit that this woman Jiang Hui is quite charming.
Although she is not as innocent and beautiful as a young girl, she is somewhat more sultry.
Chat with her, especially when she is sitting next to you while driving.
Smelling the faint fragrance emanating from her body always makes people feel uncontrollably hot.
It was a comfortable feeling that I knew I should stay away from, but I was a little reluctant to let go.
