Chapter 71
Zhang Xiya went back to the company with Li Zhen to change clothes. On the way back to the mall, Zhang Xiya was in a very happy mood.
"President Yu is such a man. You see we dressed normally and still stood out, didn't we! We didn't have to rely on clothes to catch everyone's attention at all."
Li Zhen nodded.
Yu Sheng had many shortcomings, but he was very capable at work.
Just as he said, the marketing department of Macro Ocean had made a series of efforts that allowed SCC Jewelry to be way ahead of other competitors in marketing.
Back at the mall, Li Zhen went back to the original position she stood at.
She had just gotten there when a middle-aged man wearing a mask walked over to a spot a few steps away from her. He looked her up and down.
"Li Zhen, what body type do you have that you encounter perverted men again!" Jiang Kening, who was standing to the side, rolled her eyes at Li Zhen, "You have to restrain yourself and not cause trouble again, making this offline event stink."
"Prejudice, saying that it's the victim's fault. I recommend you go to a psychiatric hospital as soon as possible for your victim blaming mentality." Li Zhen smiled faintly.
Hearing this, Jiang Kening was so angry that her eyes were no longer eyes and her nose was no longer a nose.
Maintaining a smiling standing posture, Li Zhen's gaze swept over the middle-aged man's whole body.
The man's gaze was gentle but powerful, not the vulgar kind like the male anchor's that morning, but more like he was carefully analyzing her.
Although there was no malice, Li Zhen still felt uncomfortable.
After the middle-aged man left, the models suddenly cried out in unison.
"President Lu is here! It's another day of being visually attacked by President Lu's handsomeness!"
"He looks so good today! His tie is so formal, it hits me right in the feels!"
"Here he comes, President Lu is coming closer!"
The models respectfully greeted him from afar.
"President Lu."
"Good afternoon, President Lu."
"Hello, President Lu."
Lu Yanming nodded to each one.
He walked to the SCC counter, and all the models' spines straightened even more. Their peripheral vision was desperately glancing at the new vice president.
Li Zhen was no exception.
She was also secretly a little happy.
Her tool man husband was always the most dazzling one wherever there were crowds.
These genes, she picked right!
Just when Li Zhen was secretly pleased with herself, she saw that gaze that attracted thousands of attention walk over to her side.
"Hello, President Lu." Li Zhen nodded politely.
Lu Yanming didn't speak or move. He just looked at her.
Li Zhen looked around and saw the surprised gazes shuttling back and forth between the two of them.
Why wasn't he moving from her side!
Hurry up and go!
Li Zhen was a little panicked and spoke louder, "Hello, President Lu."
Lu Yanming said lightly, "I heard someone made trouble here this morning?"
Before Li Zhen could speak, Jiang Kening hurriedly came over to answer, "Yes, President Lu. This morning was frightening. That male anchor..."
"I'm asking Li Zhen. Who are you?" Lu Yanming's tone was mild and light, without any aggressiveness at all, as if he was just asking earnestly.
But Jiang Kening's face turned pale.
The others couldn't see it, but she could see a cold chill in the new vice president's eyes.
Just like that day at the police station.
"I...I..." Jiang Kening was so scared that she couldn't speak and took two steps back.
While speaking with Jiang Kening, Li Zhen hurriedly shrank to the side, "Xiya, let's switch places."
Zhang Xiya glanced at her, "Got it, girl."
Of course Li Zhen was afraid with President Lu singling her out in front of so many people. Macro Ocean was most afraid of office gossip between men and women.
Lu Yanming took his indifferent gaze off of Jiang Kening and looked back to see...
Zhang Xiya: "Hi hi, President Lu!" Look how lively she became!
"Mm." Lu Yanming's expression froze a little as he nodded.
Li Zhen had already shrunk to the corner.
Lu Yanming scanned everyone, "I've prepared milk tea and coffee for everyone. My assistant Fei has already put it in the break room. Go take turns resting and drinking there."
The models immediately exploded excitedly, happily shouting, "Thank you, President Lu!"
There was nothing happier in the summer than the boss treating everyone to coffee and milk tea.
Lu Yanming looked at Li Zhen, then turned and left.
Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.
-
Li Zhen returned to the break room, and the table was indeed full of milk tea and coffee as promised.
She took an iced Americano and sat down on the sofa, taking off her high heels and massaging her slightly sore calves while drinking.
Zhang Xiya complained painfully, "Today has been such a long day. The amount of people in this mall is just too crazy, forcing us to stand all day."
In the past, other malls' offline events also had peak hours in the morning. By the afternoon, everyone could leave.
But the flow of people coming and going in IF Mall had never stopped today.
"Of course, the reason the company paid so much attention to moving into IF was for this reason." Meng Yuanjie chimed in.
The company had been talking about this for a long time without further action. Not to mention it was President Yu who finally signed it in the end.
Meng Yuanjie sipped his milk tea happily, lounging comfortably on the sofa with one leg crossed over the other. "But today's offline event was also pretty interesting, from the male anchor throwing a tantrum to President Lu treating us to coffee and milk tea. We never got this kind of treatment before. Isn't that right, Li Zhen?"
Meng Yuanjie raised his eyebrows at Li Zhen.
He and Zhang Xiya knew that they had Li Zhen's light to thank for these drinks.
"Oh, come on. You guys think it was interesting, but I didn't. I was tired to death today." Li Zhen threw away her cup after finishing her drink and got up to take over for her colleague.
Today's lunch and dinner were pre-ordered work meals from the company.
It wasn't until 10pm at night that Ren Zongshun and the others let them off work in batches.
Li Zhen was arranged to be in the last group. By the time she returned to the break room, only Xiaocai from the administration department was left tidying up the samples.
"Li Zhen, just put the samples in the boxes and sign, I really need to go to the bathroom."
After explaining, Xiaocai hurried out of the break room.
"Okay." Li Zhen took off the bracelets, brooches, and carefully placed them in the velvet boxes before closing them and putting them in the large box.
She signed and left with her bag.
-
Yu Sheng had just finished a meeting with the representatives from many brands and IF Mall.
Going downstairs, he saw Li Zhen at the mall entrance.
Li Zhen was sitting on the planter at the mall entrance, her high heels placed to the side.
She was barefoot, toes touching the ground.
One hand poked at the high heels while she mumbled to herself.
"Am I short? Ren Zongshun! Giving me 9 cm high heels! May you be only 1.2 m tall in your next life and have to wear 90 cm high heels to look taller!"
