Chapter 16: Chapter 16: President, let me kiss you first!
"What the hell is going on!"
After hanging up the phone, Ning Mengyao's eyes were spitting fire.
She was inexplicably scolded harshly by the dean of the First Hospital.
Her gaze now could kill someone.
At this moment, all the senior executives including the deputy general manager and director were standing in front of her.
Of course, this included Mr. Tan and Mr. Xiao.
But no one dared to raise their head.
"I'm talking to you! Have you all become mute, a contract of 250 million and I had no idea, has the marketing department lost its mind?"
Ning Mengyao angrily slapped the table, loudly scolding them.
That contract was like crisp, fluttering banknotes.
And now it had been ruined.
"Mr. Ning, I also just found out. This was something Mr. Xiao and Mr. Tan did behind my back!"
The deputy general manager of the marketing department glared fiercely at Mr. Tan and Mr. Xiao.
Right now, he felt like he could kill two people.
"You two have some nerve!"
Ning Mengyao turned her head, looking at the two.
"For such a big contract to not go through the proper procedures and to secretly switch it out, now the First Hospital has made it clear that the contract is void, cooperation is stopped, and they also want to pursue the Ning Group's responsibility, can you two bear that?"
"Mr. Ning... the contract wasn't unsigned... how are we responsible?"
Mr. Tan shivered with fright.
He had been beaten up by the security guards at the First Hospital.
"You're not responsible! Then who will compensate the company for the profits from this 250 million contract, even if I sold you both it wouldn't be enough to cover it!"
Tens of millions in profit, now gone just like that.
This was half a year's performance for the company.
Ning Mengyao, in her high heels, marched directly in front of Mr. Tan.
"I warn you, no matter what, you have to get that contract back for me, or I'll send you to court for dereliction of duty and encroaching on the company's interests, get ready to spend the rest of your lives eating prison food."
Although she was speaking out of anger, everyone knew that this contract was of tremendous help to the Ning Group.
"Mr. Ning, this really isn't our fault!"
After hesitating for a long time, Mr. Xiao still spoke up.
"If it's not your fault, is it mine?"
Ning Mengyao's face turned red as she shouted.
"This contract was signed by a new employee who started yesterday... Didn't you instruct not to leave... any leftovers, so we secretly altered the contract... If you're going to blame someone..."
Mr. Xiao swallowed the last half of his sentence.
He knew that in the workplace, someone had to take the fall.
Being the lowest in rank here, he was definitely the fall guy.
It was better to lay the situation out clearly.
"How could a new employee possibly close such a large order?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Mengyao's expression became stern.
She would've never imagined that this order had anything to do with a newcomer.
"But he did sign it, and moreover, the First Hospital said that if it wasn't for him, even if... you went, it wouldn't have worked!"
Mr. Tan, covering his swollen cheek, painfully looked at Ning Mengyao.
Now by dragging her into this, if they were going down, they'd all go down together.
"Then you tell him to come back and resign the contract immediately... tell him that the company has specially approved an additional 0.2% bonus, to be issued right on the day the contract is signed, you got that?"
Ning Mengyao pursed her lips, frowning.
The company was already at a bottleneck, and she had to secure this unexpected windfall.
"We've already pleaded with him, but he refuses to go, even saying he would quit his job after work."
Mr. Xiao had found Lin Fan first thing.
But no matter how eloquently he pleaded, it was outright rejected.
"Alright, you all go down, tell him to come to my office to see me!"
After much thought, it seemed only Ning Mengyao's personal intervention would do.
"Okay, I'll call him now!"
Upon hearing her command, Mr. Xiao wished he could grow wings and fly down.
As the office quieted down.
Ning Mengyao paced anxiously in her office.
If the contract fell through, she wouldn't be able to explain herself to the board of directors.
So later, no matter what, she must find a way to get this new salesman to sign the contract back.
"Mr. Ning, do you think that person could be the annoying guy arranged by the old chairman? Could all this be the old chairman's doing?"
Her personal secretary Li Na asked curiously.
"Impossible. Even Grandpa doesn't know anyone from the First Hospital; otherwise, he would have acted long ago if he could get the contract,"
Ning Mengyao flatly denied the idea.
She knew the extent of her grandfather's capabilities.
"Then what kind of salesman can directly negotiate a contract worth two hundred and fifty million? He must be extraordinary, right?"
Li Na poured a cup of coffee and handed it over.
"I also want to know who he is!"
Ning Mengyao held the coffee, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
She continued to ponder how to get this incredibly capable guy to bring the contract back.
"President, you called for me?"
As the door to the president's office opened.
Lin Fan walked in with his hands in his pockets.
Looking at Ning Mengyao with her back to him.
Her exquisite figure was strikingly attractive.
Especially in her business attire and the black stockings beneath her work skirt.
It inadvertently reminded him of the adorable SpongeBob.
Having not seen her for several days, he wondered if there was a chance to rekindle past memories today.
"Yes, it's me..."
The moment Ning Mengyao turned around, she froze on the spot.
Looking at the handsome face with a mischievous smile.
She felt as if the entire world had come to a standstill.
"Are you alright, President?"
Li Na asked softly, unaware of the reason.
She had never seen Mr. Ning lose her composure like this.
"No... I'm fine... You... you go out first."
The coffee spilled from her hand, snapping Ning Mengyao back to reality.
She hurriedly asked Li Na to leave first, then quickly walked to the door and locked it.
"Are you really alright?"
The way Ning Mengyao acted made Lin Fan smile involuntarily.
This CEO, who appeared so aloof, actually had such a cute side.
"Why is it you... Why?"
Ning Mengyao quickly walked up to Lin Fan.
After checking several times, she was sure she wasn't seeing things.
"Miss, Grandpa did send me to work in the company, and you know that. Since you don't give me an allowance, I can't go catching venomous snakes in the mountains every day, can I?"
Lin Fan said with a smile, pretending to be confused.
And when he mentioned the venomous snakes, Ning Mengyao's face grew even redder.
"The contract with the First Hospital, did you negotiate it?"
"Yes, but now I heard that someone is impersonating me to claim my commission. It's obvious they want to embezzle it. I don't want to work in such a chaotic company, so I've decided to resign. Here's my resignation letter,"
Lin Fan picked up the printed resignation letter and handed it to Ning Mengyao.
Of course, he was confident that no one would fire him at this point.
"No, you cannot resign!"
Ning Mengyao tore the resignation letter in half and threw it on the ground.
He was now too valuable; she absolutely couldn't let him go.
"Don't you bear to see me leave?"
Lin Fan, wearing a devilish smile, stepped forward and leaned against Ning Mengyao.
Looking at her delicate face.
This stunning beauty was truly a rare gem in this world.
He could no longer restrain himself from tasting her charm once more.
