"I visited the Xingyue headquarters," Pei Donglai said.
"Well, I still used my rest time to work, not bad. How is Xiaolan?"
"Chairman, if there's nothing to do, I'll go out to work first." Pei Donglai didn't want to talk to her anymore, and if the conversation continued it would become sour.
Now, whenever Pei Donglai comes into contact with other women, Lin Xiaojie will always say something sour.
In the workplace, everyone knew that the relationship between the two was unusual, so the girls deliberately kept a distance from Pei Donglai. Even Yu Lingling was hinted by Lin Xiaojie because she and Pei Donglai spent too long reporting on work.
Although the two have divorced, in Lin Xiaojie's heart, Pei Donglai is her man. If she can't get it, no one else can get it. Ever since Lin Xiaojie became the chairman, as her desires have expanded, this desire for control has also become more and more intense. powerful.
However, Pei Donglai was not a troublemaker. Although he was dissatisfied with Lin Xiaojie's actions, he never had any trouble with Lin Xiaojie because of these things.
In this kind of unit, you have to pay attention to the relationship between men and women. If you have close contacts with the opposite sex, it will have a bad impact. Many people will gossip, which will affect your prestige.
When he got off work, Chen Jian called and asked Pei Dong to have dinner together at Wangyue Villa.
Tonight, Chen Jian came alone, and neither Julie nor Lin Xiaojie came.
After a few drinks, Chen Jian asked: "Donglai, tell me the truth, is it still possible for you and Xiaojie?"
"Did Lin Xiaojie ask you to ask?" Pei Donglai asked.
Chen Jian nodded and did not avoid it.
"I've said it a long time ago, it's impossible for Xiaojie and I to be together anymore," Pei Donglai said truthfully.
After hearing this, Chen Jian remained silent and his expression became serious. After a while, Chen Jian laughed.
"Donglai, I don't know what you think, you will regret it in the future."
Pei Donglai knew what Chen Jian meant and said, "Mr. Chen, I don't care about those things."
"You are quite mature in other aspects, but why are you so naive when it comes to relationships? Now Xiaojie is the largest shareholder of Jiangdong Bank. I only have one daughter, and all my assets will be given to her in the future. Don't you care, man? Well, don’t take love so seriously. If you have money, what do you want?”
Pei Donglai didn't expect that Chen Jian would tell him this. His intention was very obvious, that is, if Pei Donglai marries his daughter, she can be as chic as him if she is rich.
I have to say that Chen Jian is really an out-and-out bad guy. Julie is the red flag of the family and helps him manage the company, but he is out to cause trouble and have a great time.
"Mr. Chen, I can't understand your world, just like you can't understand my feelings." Pei Donglai finished his glass of wine and stood up to leave.
"Wait a minute," Chen Jian said loudly.
"Anything else?"
"Pei Donglai, don't be disrespectful to me." Chen Jian suddenly changed his tone.
Pei Donglai looked at Chen Jian. He was a little drunk, but his words were definitely not lies. He was a naked threat.
"Mr. Chen, why don't I know how to praise? I have to become someone like you to know how to praise, right?" Pei Donglai said back.
Chen Jian stood up, and suddenly his attitude softened a lot. He smiled and said, "Donglai, I have told you before that I advised Xiaojie to leave you. I told her when we were in Shenzhen, But I am a stubborn girl and won’t listen to advice. Let me tell you the truth. As long as you get married, I will let Xiaojie resign as chairman and let you become the chairman. What do you think?”
Pei Donglai smiled and said, "Old Chen, although I want to be the chairman, I won't do it at the expense of this."
"You are still too young. Do you think you can get the position of chairman just by working hard and working overtime day and night? Do you think you can just improve your performance? Let me tell you the truth, as long as you If you don't get together with Xiaojie, you will never be able to be the chairman of the board, and you may even retire from your current position. People, you have to know how to bow your head and you will see the way out."
Although Chen Jian's words don't sound good, they are indeed true. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. People with high kung fu and ignorance of the world often have poor results. The real winner is hidden behind the scenes.
But Pei Donglai will not marry Lin Xiaojie again, even if he cannot be with Zhang Yutong, he will not do so.
"Mr. Chen, you are drunk. Let me take you back." Pei Donglai didn't want to discuss this topic with Chen Jian anymore.
Along the way, Chen Jianyi persuaded Pei Donglai to think carefully. When he arrived at the villa, a young woman opened the door. Chen Jian hugged the woman and said goodbye to Pei Donglai.
In Jiangcheng, it was open for Chen Jian to play with women, and there was almost no need to avoid Julie. She was very chic. Maybe this was the dream life of many men, but Pei Donglai was not envious at all, at least not now.
On the way back, Pei Donglai silently recalled what Chen Jian had said. They were all Chen Jian's words of experience. Among the 10 rich people, how many were really self-made? It’s not all about standing on the shoulders of giants.
But in this regard, Pei Donglai took it very lightly. Sometimes he even took things as they came. Sometimes he thought that if he could reach the position of president, he would be pretty good.
Indeed, at that time, he also stood on the shoulders of giants and climbed up. If we talk about strength, there are people who are stronger than him in Jiangdong Bank, but they don't have the opportunity.
If it weren't for Li Zixuan, Pei Donglai wouldn't be able to sit in this position. Everyone knows that there is an exchange of interests between people, but if what is exchanged exceeds his own bottom line, this is something Pei Donglai cannot accept.
Since Chen Jian took the initiative as he said, he naturally gave an ultimatum. If Pei Donglai did not agree to the other party's conditions, I am afraid that in the next term, the board of directors will re-appoint a new president.
The next day, Lin Xiaojie came to Pei Donglai's office and said, "Donglai, my dad was drunk last night. It's late at night. Please send him home."
Pei Donglai knew that Lin Xiaojie was here to test his attitude, and Chen Jian should tell his daughter.
Pei Donglai did not respond. When he was about to leave, Lin Xiaojie made an appointment with Pei Donglai to have dinner together in the evening.
When it was almost time to get off work, Lin Xiaojie came to Pei Donglai's office to wait, and then the two walked out of the Jiangdong Bank building together.
Tonight, the two of them were not dating alone. There were other people, including some leaders in the city. Chen Jian and Julie were also there.
Pei Donglai knew that what Lin Xiaojie and Chen Jian meant was to give him authority. If he didn't agree to the other party's conditions, he might not be able to survive in Jiangcheng, let alone become the bank president.
After the meal, Chen Jian invited several leaders to have tea, and Pei Donglai also accompanied him.
A black business car took everyone to a relatively remote tea bar. The place was heavily guarded. After entering, Pei Donglai actually saw Wei Wei, who was the boss here.
After arranging for several leaders to enter the box, Pei Donglai took the opportunity to go to the bathroom and came out for some air, and happened to meet Wei Wei.
"President Pei, I'm sorry, I've been a little busy lately and haven't dealt with the debts yet. I'll deal with them tomorrow," Wei Wei said politely.
"Did you make tea?"
Wei Wei nodded, "Well, I can only do some small business to get by, don't be ridiculous."
