An Ning has always wanted to ask Xu Mo Ting about that letter but she is afraid she will not be able to express herself appropriately on this kind of matter …… Then it’ll be game over.
In theory, she did not remember that she had ever received his letter. Because she was bad at remembering people, it was logical that she has forgotten.
He gave one but she forgot. However when she received letters from others, she will usually reply. Even if it is to reply ‘I am sorry’ …… she always felt something was wrong, yet she can't find the loophole.
“Earth calling!” A female colleague smilingly patted the person who was lost in thought, “An Ning, I am really sorry. The people in the business department have all gone, so I have no choice but to drag you to accompany me to go to hold a welcoming dinner on behalf of the big boss, okay? I’ve talked to your department head to give you a day off tomorrow.”
It did not matter to An Ning. If you calculate, she was the one who benefited. They arrived at a famous restaurant in the city centre at half past six. The boss’s surname is He, from Hong Kong. He is about 40 years old, mature and earnest. He spoke reasonably, accordingly and there was no shortage of humor. There was also a few of his mainland high-ranking officials and business associates sitting at the table.
After the female colleague toasted everyone around the table, An Ning also accompanied her to drink a lot of beverages. The VIPs present could be regarded as open-minded, since they did not force the little girl to drink alcohol. A high official even joked with the female colleague by saying: “Manager Chu rarely brings little girl here, so I am quite pleased. Previously Xiao Zhang from your business department can drink a lot, ah. When I see him, I also feel scared ——”
Everyone was laughing when person led by a waiter, came in midway, An Ning was stunned and straightened her back immediately. Boss He got up and shook hand with him. When Zhou Jin Cheng sat down, he inevitably glanced at her. However, he did not say anything.
He obviously was familiar with these people. Someone poured wine for him: “Jin Cheng, didn’t you say you were having dinner with Mr. Gao just now?”
Zhou Jin Cheng smilingly replied: “I have not seen all of you for quite a while, so I came over to say hi. Why? you don't welcome me ah?”
“How can you say that? Diplomat Zhou making an appearance, there’s not enough time for us to set off a gun salute.”
In the midst of laughter and noise, someone asked the rather quiet Meow Meow, “Is little girl doing internship in Long Tai? You look about the same age as my daughter. Twenty years old yet?”
An Ning did not know whether this was considered a praise or a derogatory remark, so she just replied “Yes, doing internship.”
Chu Qiao can’t help explaining: “Boss Chen, An Ning is a post-graduate research student in a prestigious university and is working in our Laboratory Division now. She is pretty capable, so don’t look down upon her.”
The other person burst into loud laughter: “I don’t dare!” He turned to praise boss He: “Long Tai has many talented people ah!”
He Tian Lian was also not modest: “Mainland China is a place propitious for giving birth to outstanding talented people.”
Over here, a certain government official asked Zhou Jin Cheng, “Do you’ve friendly relationship with people from the Xu family?”
