The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 155 The Difference Between Fang Xiewen and Lu Jie

Inside the restaurant.

Lu Jie, who has a strange and low-quality taste, is poaching employees with a loving face, while Xie Meilan, who has a little angel in her belly, is also silently listening to the gentlemanly and wealthy boss's true feelings.

Then Lu Jie took out a piece of paper from his bag. It was the IOU for 400,000 yuan that Xie Meilan borrowed from him when her mother was seriously ill.

"Is this the thing that has been making you uncomfortable?"

Xie Meilan remained silent. This IOU was indeed a huge mountain weighing on her heart.

She just told Shen Lei that she borrowed 100,000 yuan from her uncle. Who knew that her "uncle" actually had feelings for her "niece"?

Uh...it's impossible for Xie Meilan to go there without knowing that her boss Lu Jie has feelings for her.

Women, especially those in the workplace, are very sensitive to certain aspects of the opposite sex.

The reason why she didn't take any action in the past was not only because she didn't want to lose her job, but also because of her feelings for her husband.

But after so much consumption, everything is on the verge of collapse.

So Lu Jie gave her a push and tore up the IOU for 400,000 yuan right in front of Xie Meilan.

I am not afraid of the amount of the favor, I am afraid of not being able to repay the favor.

Then Xie Meilan was dumbfounded. Although 400,000 yuan was a large amount, she could pay it back if she worked hard for free for a year.

As a result, the IOU has been torn up now, and she has no chance to pay back the money. She can only repay the debt with her body.

It's all because Xie Meilan read too many books and her ideological and moral qualities became distorted.

If anyone else saw their IOU being torn up, the first thing they would do was to take the torn pieces and burn them, then set the whole place on fire.

Finally, I would happily bow to Mr. Lu and thank the boss for being so generous!

Unfortunately, Xie Meilan doesn’t do this now, nor does she think this way.

Her mind was filled with thoughts about the fact that her debt of 400,000 yuan was gone. Should she be happy?

Mr. Lu is not going to confront me now, is he? Should I struggle a little? Or just struggle a little?

Lu Jie took advantage of the victory and pursued:

"I'm happy that I can help you a little, but I don't want to burden you because of my help. Ever since the incident with your mother, I suddenly found that you were deliberately keeping a distance from me. You were always a little too reserved and too polite. I thought it might be because of the money. In fact, you don't have to be like this. I told you before that you can treat me as your good friend, and I am your boss. We work together for the project. We are also comrades-in-arms. If my comrades-in-arms encounter difficulties, can I just stand by and watch? Right?"

If Fang Xiewen in "The Story of the Rose" is a master at picking up girls, then Lu Jie in "Song of a Mortal" is at most good at calculating.

And there are huge differences between the two.

Fang Xiewen was limited by his financial situation, but he was able to use the limited resources to perform textbook-level operations to show how a poor boy can capture the heart of a beautiful, rich woman, but Lu Jie... he was simply cheating with money.

At least the former has aspects that can be learned from, but as for the latter... who in normal times would spend money and effort to seduce such a woman.

Kuo Lujie is still an investor, but from an investor's perspective, this is a bad investment.

In the original drama, Fang Xiewen reached the peak of his career with the start-up capital he got from Huang Yimei!

So by comparison, Lu Jie is not as good as Fang Xiewen!
But it has to be admitted that Lu Jie's behavior of tearing up the IOU just now and the words he said now played a miraculous effect in controlling his female subordinates.

Xie Meilan was deeply moved.

This kind of behavior is not worth promoting, because if you don't grasp the right scale, you will become a clown who is taken advantage of.

It's like when corn is ripe and a girl suddenly wants to date you, and then she tricks you into going to her hometown to plant a few acres of corn. When she wants to thank you after the fact, you wave your hands and say you don't want it, and then leave overnight. You probably think that you are so great and manly and that you will definitely leave a good impression on her.

It can only be said that in this regard, Lu Jie can at least distinguish clearly.

Then he had a pleasant dinner with Xie Meilan, and also said a few words of comfort to her about her mother's death.

In Xie Meilan's heart, his two sentences far surpassed Shen Lei's meticulous care during this period.

……

After returning home in the evening, Shen Lei immediately began to ask his wife about her well-being, providing her with hot meals when she was hungry and hot water when she was thirsty.

However, as soon as Xie Meilan returned home, she felt an instant disappearance of the joy she had just felt at being debt-free.

After replying dryly, "I'm going to take a shower and go to bed," he ignored Shen Lei.

Shen Lei scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. He could only think that his wife was a little tired from working overtime. After all, it was not the first time.

After the two of them lay on the bed, Shen Lei, who had been distracted for a long time today, suddenly whispered:

"Wife, tonight should we..."

As he spoke, he put his hand on Xie Meilan's waist.

Xie Meilan immediately understood what he meant, but she moved directly to the other side of the bed and said calmly:
"No, I'm a little tired today, let's go to bed early!"

"Oh, okay, then you should go to bed early."

Shen Lei said regretfully that if his wife was tired, then forget it, he respected his wife very much.

Then at this time, Xie Meilan, who was facing away from Shen Lei, opened her eyes wide, with one hand on her belly. On the one hand, she was not in the mood to applaud with her husband tonight, and on the other hand, she was pregnant!
What if I have a miscarriage?
Although she had begun to consider aborting the child, she had to go to the hospital alone and quietly to do it, and she couldn't let Shen Lei find out in advance.

After closing her eyes, Xie Meilan found that her mind was filled with thoughts of her boss Lu Jie, who had been gentle, considerate, gentlemanly and wealthy during the previous meal.

……

The next day, every day beauty industry group.

Just when Na Wei entered the company office and was trying to figure out his boss' intentions with Jiang Shan, a fierce quarrel broke out in the chairman's office next door.

The two of them hurriedly leaned over the window to look, and saw Liu Yan being fired by Qin Lingling and leaving cursing all the way.

This frightened the two of them so much that their faces turned pale.

Jiang Shan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot and said, "That's Liu Yan, my eldest brother's cousin! She's already been released, and the next step is for us, the elders!"

Although Na Wei explained that it was nothing and Qin Lingling would not do anything to them, his shaking legs betrayed him.

Especially the next moment, there was a knock on his office door.

The secretary who came in said, "Boss, Boss Ling is looking for you."

"..."

His face, which had turned pale with fright, turned earthy at this moment.

……

"Juanjuan, my brother was called to the office by Qin Lingling. Will he be fired too?"

Just when Na Jun was at work, he received a message from Li Xiaoyue.

After thinking about it, he made a "prediction" directly.

Juanjuan: Don't worry, I think what my brother said at the beginning did make some sense. Qin Lingling should not settle the score with him for bringing Wang Ruizhi into the mountains, otherwise she should have settled it yesterday.

At this time, Lao Na should have entered Qin Lingling's office trembling with fear, frantically expressed his loyalty to her, and then hoped that she would let him leave the company in a dignified manner.

After all, there was such a big commotion when Liu Yan was fired just now, and he didn't want to be kicked out in the same embarrassing way as Liu Yan.

It turned out to be a misunderstanding in the end. Qin Lingling did not mean to fire Na Wei. She just asked him to reflect on his problems at work and hoped that he could help get the company back on track as soon as possible.

Objectively speaking, Qin Lingling actually still hopes that the company will do well.

In the past, she may have seized power, but that didn't mean she wanted to bring down the company. After all, the normal exercise of power is based on the normal foundation of the company.

Therefore, seizing power does not conflict with her desire for the best for the company.

Unfortunately, her abilities are there. If Wang Ruizhi hadn't secretly fanned the flames, she wouldn't even be able to fight for power. She is truly not good at fighting, nor is she good at getting things done.

Qin Lingling's actions after taking charge of the company's affairs were typical of a novice and playful person, somewhat like Wu Zhao after she became emperor.

And that’s not all. The most important thing is that he has an even more incredible brother. Qin Feng, the uncle of the emperor, said he would help her build up the company, but ended up accelerating its downfall.

This series of suffocating operations is simply making things worse.

But that’s all later. Just a while after Na Jun replied to the message, Li Xiaoyue sent him another message.

Yueyue: Juanjuan, I was not kicked out after I came out of Qin Lingling’s office just now!
Juanjuan: You see, my prediction was correct!
After putting down his phone, Na Jun stroked his chin and began to recall the plot of the original drama carefully. If nothing unexpected happened, after his brother passed this level, he would be in real big trouble.

Well, but at least he can still live a stable life this week, his sister-in-law Shen Lin can continue to live a peaceful life for a while, and the nanny in their family who earns more than 8,000 yuan can get a few more days of salary.

Thinking of this, Na Jun shook his head. He didn't know what they were thinking. With a monthly salary of about 40,000 yuan, they actually wanted to hire a nanny who costs 8,000 yuan.

This mortal is so extraordinary!
……

weekend.

Shen Lin once again invited her brother-in-law and his wife, as well as her younger brother and his wife, to have dinner at home.

It was not only to celebrate her husband's survival, but also to care about her younger brother and sister-in-law, especially Xie Meilan's belly. Now that her own family is fine, she has time to care about her younger brother's family.

However, as expected, Xie Meilan still worked overtime on weekends.

I don’t know if it’s really to make up for the work hours or to have more contact with the boss.

Interestingly, when Shen Lin brought a plate of fruit and a plate of her secret marinated food to fill everyone's stomachs, Na Wei took a bite and joked:
"If this can make money, let's go."

Shen Lin, who was acting like a noble lady, rolled her eyes and said, "Who wants to set up a stall with you?"

Perhaps the couple never imagined that these two casual remarks, spoken as a joke, would eventually come true!
This debt-ridden couple eventually had to rely on selling braised food at a street stall to support their family!
After a while, while everyone was still in the living room, Shen Lin called his younger brother Shen Lei into the kitchen.

"Sister, can I help you with anything?"

Looking at his brother's clear and cute eyes, Shen Lin frowned and asked:
"Have you cared more about Meilan since you went back last time?"

“I care!”

"So, did you find anything?"
