Zhang Ling felt warm and comfortable in her heart when she heard the general manager being overly protective.
If she hadn't known that the general manager had a family.
I also know that the general manager is famous in the eyes of everyone as he loves his wife and daughter.
Zhang Ling even suspected that the general manager wanted to show her love in this way.
The meeting ended because of her suggestion.
even so.
The general manager allowed everyone to leave first.
Only Zhang Ling was left behind.
Zhang Ling complained a little unhappy and said:
"Oh, general manager, if you have anything to do, please tell me immediately. As you know, I always have a lot of work. I'm anxious to go back..."
The general manager felt a little uncomfortable listening to Zhang Ling's words.
I think even the general manager of a group has a lot of work to do.
He didn't even say that he worked a lot.
You Zhang Ling, a vice president, dare to say in front of him that you have a lot of work?
But he still endured the discomfort in his heart.
He forced a smile on his face and said:
"Okay, okay! Vice President Zhang, please don't worry. I can't delay you for a few minutes. I just want to ask you a few questions."
Zhang Ling guessed that the general manager would probably not give up.
I also want to persuade her to become the group's image spokesperson.
But how could she compromise so easily?
So she waved her hand a little politely and said:
"If the general manager still wants to persuade me to be a spokesperson for the group, then forget it. General manager, please stop talking. I will never agree."
What Zhang Ling didn't expect was that the general manager shook his head and rejected her words.
Zhang Ling asked curiously, a little puzzled:
"General manager, what do you want to know?"
The general manager smiled and took out a box with a red bow from his pocket, placed it in front of her and said:
"Vice President Zhang, first of all, I would like to congratulate you and Li Xiang on your engagement yesterday. This is my personal little thought. I hope you will accept it."
Zhang Ling looked at the gift in front of her and hesitated slightly.
Still decided to reach out and take it.
He didn’t open it on the spot to see what the gift was, so he just put it aside and politely said:
"I like this gift very much! Thank you to the general manager for taking the trouble."
The general manager let out an awkward laugh and said:
"Interesting, interesting, really interesting! You said you like the gift without even opening it. Vice President Zhang was born with a pair of eyes that can see through everything. You don't need to open it to know..."
Zhang Ling heard the general manager's teasing voice.
She put a hand on the gift box and touched it.
I thought it would be more embarrassing to open the gifts in person now.
Then a somewhat embarrassed smile appeared on her face, she waved her hand and explained:
"A person like you, the general manager, has an unmistakable vision. So I know it's something I like without even looking at it."
At this time, the general manager waved his hand with a slightly gloomy face and said:
"Zhang Ling, let me tell you frankly. The gift you just received was not from me. It was given to you on behalf of a friend. In fact, I don't know what is in this gift box."
So far.
Zhang Ling asked with great interest:
"who?"
Why don't you just give a gift to a friend directly?
It still costs a lot of money to deliver it.
The first person Zhang Ling thought of was Qi Diaozhe.
Just get confirmation from the general manager.
Then she must refuse it.
What Zhang Ling didn't expect was that the general manager seemed to have guessed her worries.
So he shook his head in denial and said:
"Don't worry. I can guarantee that this gift is definitely not from the person you think it is. You can feel free to keep it."
Zhang Ling paused slightly hesitantly for a while.
I wanted to just acquiesce that the person the general manager mentioned was the Qi Diaozhe she was thinking of.
But she suddenly felt something was very wrong.
So he continued to say:
"Qi Diaozhe. As long as the person you are talking about, general manager, is not Qi Diaozhe, I can accept this gift."
The general manager has thought about other people in the company who usually don't deal with Zhang Ling.
He never expected that Zhang Ling would be so jealous of Qi Diaozhe.
So he stuffed the gifts Qi Diaozhe had prepared into his pocket again.
I couldn't help feeling grateful that I didn't ask Qi Diaozhe to deliver the gift to her in the first place.
Otherwise, this gift related to his future would be really hard to pass on.
The general manager breathed a sigh of relief and said "no" with a smile.
Listen and answer.
Zhang Ling stared at the gift box in confusion with increasing confusion.
She thought that Qi Diaozhe was the only person she knew.
The rest will be given away in person by others such as Bie Shanliu and others.
Those who are not familiar with it will not be given it at all.
It seems that no one would give gifts this way anymore.
So she became more and more curious and reached out to open the gift box with her own hands in front of the general manager.
What suddenly appeared in front of her was a familiar water glass.
She blurted out with a bright smile:
"Old lady! This is a gift from the old lady."
The general manager just nodded affirmatively and said "right".
moment!
It made her feel as if she had returned to the wooden house again.
This was probably the water glass from which she drank a few sips of water.
She couldn't wait to bring the rim of the cup to her nose and sniffed it.
There is no hint of used tea aroma.
You can even smell the elegance of jade carving.
Obviously this is a new water bottle that has not been used.
A smile appeared on her face and she said to herself:
"I told you at the beginning that this gift was too valuable for me. I couldn't ask for it. Why did the old lady send it here again?"
The general manager heard Zhang Ling's muttering and immediately explained:
"The old lady said that she left because of something urgent. She didn't have time to say hello to you. She feels very sorry."
Zhang Ling waved her hand and said:
"It's okay! It's normal for people like the old lady to be very busy. I can understand it. There's no need to feel sorry."
The general manager continued:
"The old lady also said that a kind-hearted person like you would definitely say it's okay. But because the fire in the wooden house put you in jail, it made the old lady feel guilty and sorry..."
The memory of the fire was an untouchable pain for Zhang Ling.
An expression of pain immediately appeared on her face.
Therefore, she did not express any of her opinions on the general manager's words for the time being.
The general manager continued:
"So the old lady said that she would take advantage of your engagement to ask me to send you this gift as an apology. I hope you will accept her wishes without hesitation."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! To be honest, the old lady originally prepared this water cup for Zhang Ling.
The old lady also imagined that both mother and daughter were holding this water glass.
Let’s sit together in front of the house and watch the afterglow fall.
It's just that there has never been a suitable opportunity to give this gift before.
After finally meeting and giving gifts once, Zhang Ling rejected them again.
The old lady admired Zhang Pengtian for raising a good daughter.
But precisely because Zhang Ling is so good, it is also what gives the old lady the biggest headache.
Even if it is a simple and normal gift.
The old lady still needs to learn to use roundabout ways to deliver.
Zhang Ling raised her head and looked at the general manager hesitantly.
I thought that the general manager usually took good care of her at work.
She couldn't embarrass the general manager because of this.
So he nodded calmly and accepted the gift.
certainly!
Another reason is that Zhang Ling really likes this water cup.
The first time I saw this water glass, I felt like it belonged to her.
She just followed her heart and chose to accept this love.
I thought the general manager would be fine if he accepted the water cup.
Then she can leave and go about her work.
Unexpectedly, the general manager started to say again with a bit of worry:
"Zhang Ling, I can't figure it out. For a person like you who is kind to others, there are always people spreading such false remarks to slander you. Do you know who these people are?"
Although the general manager is not aware of the relationship between the old lady and Zhang Ling.
But it is not difficult to see from the things he did for the old lady.
The relationship between the old lady and Zhang Ling is very close.
In order to please the old lady.
During the time when security guards were just arranged to rescue Zhang Ling.
I have told the old lady everything about Zhang Ling's current situation.
I thought that the old lady would order him to properly help Zhang Ling handle the matter.
But the general manager didn't expect that the old lady just replied lightly "I know".
Then there is no more content.
However, the general manager has more than ten years of experience in shopping malls.
He keenly felt that the three words "got it" contained in the old lady's words had an unusual meaning.
It seems like she is using the gossip news to test Zhang Ling's ability to handle crises.
That's why the general manager tried to take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Zhang Ling.
If we could ask Zhang Ling about the suspect who manipulated public opinion.
Then he secretly helped Zhang Ling settle the matter.
He can be regarded as planting good karma in Zhang Ling.
If he guesses correctly in the future.
It was really Zhang Ling who took over the group.
Zhang Ling's character of repaying kindness will definitely give him a good place to retire.
right.
The general manager is approaching retirement age.
It's time to find a way out for yourself.
So he decided that Zhang Ling was his best escape route.
Zhang Ling was quite confused when she heard the general manager's words.
So to clarify the reason:
"General Manager, there's no rush about that thing that you can't figure out. Let's discuss it later. There happens to be something I can't figure out here. I hope that, General Manager, you will answer my questions for me."
Zhang Ling followed her previous experience.
I believe Li Xiang will definitely help her handle the gossip news incident.
So she was not in any hurry to solve it.
The general manager had a premonition of the crisis coming from Zhang Ling.
But because he knew Zhang Ling’s true identity.
So it’s hard to refuse to answer directly.
I could only grit my teeth and agree:
"Say! As long as it is something I know and does not violate moral principles, you can ask and I will try my best to answer you."
This is what Zhang Ling wants.
So she paused for a moment to organize her words and replied:
"General manager, since you expressed your intention to make me the general manager last time, your attitude towards me has changed so much that I feel uncomfortable. Do you know..."
The general manager interrupted Zhang Ling's narrative with "How is that possible?"
Then he rashly continued what Zhang Ling said:
"Zhang Ling, you are thinking too much! I just saw that you and my daughter are similar in age and have very similar personalities. That's why I treated you as my biological daughter intentionally or unintentionally. Don't get me wrong."
The general manager didn't want Zhang Ling to ask questions.
Then he will inevitably be in a dilemma whether he answers or not.
So there was only one way to go before him.
Before Zhang Ling could get in front of him, he made up a seemingly believable reason, which was the most appropriate explanation.
Zhang Ling heard that the general manager seemed to be hiding something.
So he smiled and said step by step:
"General manager, are you thinking too much? I haven't asked all the questions yet. How do you know what I'm going to ask next?"
The general manager realized that he was being a bit smart.
The word "I" came out of my mouth and I was speechless.
Zhang Ling then smiled slightly and said:
"What's more interesting is that you put the answer to the question directly in front of me. However, I can tell you clearly. General Manager, you answered the question incorrectly."
The general manager repeated with a surprised look on his face, "I answered the question incorrectly."
Zhang Ling nodded and continued:
"Actually, I want to ask the general manager if you will be like the ones in those bloody movies and TV dramas. Your true identity is that you are my biological father. That's why you usually take care of me like this. No..."
To be honest, Zhang Ling has never seen her mother.
More than once, I thought that I was the child picked up by my father, Zhang Pengtian.
But after Zhang Ling secretly took Zhang Pengtian's sample for identification.
She was very sure that she was absolutely certain of the father-daughter relationship with Zhang Pengtian.
Then it can only be that the general manager in front of him mistakenly thought that she was his biological father.
So she urgently wanted to explain this misunderstanding to the general manager today.
She didn't want any other rumors to spread because the general manager took special care of her.
The general manager laughed loudly after listening to Zhang Ling's words and then said:
"To be honest, I would like to have a daughter like you. But what a pity! I, XXX, have not been able to achieve this blessing for most of my life."
Zhang Ling thought wrong.
An embarrassed and bitter smile appeared on her face.
Now I wish I had the power to escape from the conference room and escape immediately.
She tried to defend herself by saying:
"That...general manager...this...I..."
She didn't know how to express herself in words for a moment. Is this a misunderstanding?
The general manager noticed Zhang Ling's embarrassment.
So I took the initiative and said:
"No need to explain. I understand. Sorry! It's indeed my behavior that has caused trouble to you. It's all my fault..."
Zhang Ling still felt something was wrong with the general manager's words.
It was clearly Zhang Ling who misunderstood the general manager.
It caused unnecessary confusion to the general manager.
But from what the other party said just now, I could tell that the general manager was taking all the responsibility for the mistake on him.
The general manager's abnormal reaction made her confused for a while. What was the reason?
So she interrupted the general manager's self-blaming words again and said:
"Wrong, wrong!"
Only then did the general manager suddenly realize that he had just reversed the position relationship again.
So the old man smiled bitterly with a sense of embarrassment and said:
"It's true that I was wrong! Oh, these years make people grow old. It seems that I have to admit that I am old. Look at my memory..."
Zhang Ling originally wanted to try to ask something.
But the general manager said "that's it" and stood up to leave.
To the keen Zhang Ling, this reaction was like running away.
It further shows that she just confirmed that a certain keyword touches the truth.
Therefore, the general manager is worried that he will make mistakes if he talks too much.
Choose to leave early to keep it a secret.
Even though Zhang Ling tried her best to persuade her to stay, she shouted "Wait a minute".
The general manager seems to have become completely deaf in an instant.
I just pretended not to hear it.
He resolutely left the small conference room No. 6 without looking back.
have no choice!
In public, it would be inappropriate for her to commit the following acts of openly obstructing the general manager.
at this time.
Xiao Jin had already left the door of the conference room with an excuse.
Only Wu Man came to Zhang Ling.
Seeing Zhang Ling's face looking a little ugly, she asked:
"Vice President Zhang, Vice President Zhang...what happened? Don't scare me! Just say something!"
Until Wu Man violently shook Zhang Ling's body.
Only then did she react and asked Wu Man to stop shaking.
Then he smiled and said to himself in front of Wu Man:
"I understand! Do I understand why he has such an attitude?"
Wu Man asked "why" in confusion.
Zhang Ling looked at Wu Man with a smile and said:
"Because the general manager probably has an unusually close relationship with the old lady in the wooden house! Well, I think that must be the case."
