Chapter 2357: Chapter 2170: Two Bosses_3
But that alone was enough to shock Jiang Huixuan. She hurriedly snatched the business card from Song Jiaren’s hand and whipped out her phone to save Su Xiaoliu’s number.
But Song Jiaren had never heard of any Su Xiaoliu, so she asked Jiang Huixuan, "Who is this Su Xiaoliu?"
Jiang Huixuan tilted her head and said to Song Jiaren in a coquettish tone, "Jiaren, your year-end performance assessment has already met the target. Why don’t you let me have this Mr. Song, okay?"
Song Jiaren wasn’t quite used to Jiang Huixuan’s sudden change in attitude, so she turned her head and glanced at Song Xiaodong.
But Song Xiaodong didn’t give her any face and said to Song Jiaren, "This opportunity is for you, and only for you. Even if someone else calls this number, it won’t do them any good."
Looking at the smiling Song Xiaodong, Song Jiaren was a bit dazed for a moment. She couldn’t figure it out: just now he’d seemed like an ordinary middle-aged man, so how had he suddenly become so dignified yet calm?
"Mr. Song, please don’t be so petty, okay? It was my fault just now, I shouldn’t have judged you by your looks!" Jiang Huixuan hurriedly admitted her mistake to Song Xiaodong.
Jiang Huixuan absolutely wouldn’t miss a chance to cozy up to someone who knew Su Xiaoliu.
"Look at you two, getting all worked up over a single business card. Who knows where he got it from? You don’t even know if it’s real or fake. Maybe Mr. Su just handed it to him on a train or something." Liu Yuhao was very displeased with the two girls’ change in attitude and couldn’t resist mocking Song Xiaodong.
Jiang Huixuan thought it over and felt that Liu Yuhao had a point. You could never be sure whether a business card was real or not.
So Jiang Huixuan said to Song Jiaren, "Jiaren, I think President Liu makes sense. Why don’t you just call Mr. Su and test it out?"
She had clearly just copied down Su Xiaoliu’s number herself, but instead of calling, she egged Song Jiaren on to make the call.
Song Jiaren wasn’t stupid. She simply looked at Song Xiaodong with sincere eyes and said:
"Mr. Song, I trust you."
Finding it amusing, Song Xiaodong asked Song Jiaren, "Why do you trust me?"
Song Jiaren thought for a moment and answered, "Because I feel that someone who likes helping others wouldn’t lie just for vanity."
"Oh come on, Jiaren, save that heartwarming-chicken-soup talk for me in private. Don’t embarrass yourself out here! Are you calling or not? If you won’t, I will." Jiang Huixuan said to Song Jiaren.
"Huixuan! Cut it out!" Song Jiaren said to her.
"It’s fine. If it really is Mr. Su, one phone call won’t cause any trouble. If it’s fake, then we can stop dreaming about it. " As she spoke, Jiang Huixuan dialed Su Xiaoliu’s number.
Chapter 2172: Even if Someone Else Calls, It’s Useless
"Hello? Is this Mr. Su?" Jiang Huijuan asked in a syrupy sweet voice.
"Speaking. And you are?" Su Xiaoliu’s attitude toward unfamiliar calls was always very indifferent.
"Hello, Mr. Su, I’m Jiang Huixuan from xxxx Advertising Company. I’d like to ask if you currently have any needs regarding advertising production or marketing. If you do, I hope you’ll consider contacting us." Jiang Huixuan said to Su Xiaoliu.
Only then did Song Jiaren realize what was going on. So Jiang Huixuan was trying to steal her performance credit. If this Mr. Su turned out to be a fake, it wouldn’t matter. But if the number really connected and it really was Su Xiaoliu on the other end, then once the deal was made, wouldn’t the performance get counted under Jiang Huixuan’s name?
Looking at the way Jiang Huixuan was acting, Song Jiaren could only shrug helplessly and shake her head.
Clearly, this wasn’t the first time something like this had happened.
"Here’s the thing: we don’t have plans to place any ads in the near future, but we might have such needs down the line. If we do, can I just call this number to reach you?" Su Xiaoliu said to Jiang Huixuan.
"Yes, yes, of course. My name is Jiang Huixuan. When the time comes you can call this number to find me, and I can also reach out to you proactively." Jiang Huixuan’s smile was so wide her foundation was about to crack.
"All right then, that’s it."
After hanging up, Jiang Huixuan suddenly seemed to realize something was off. She slapped her forehead and said to Song Jiaren, "Jiaren, I’m really sorry. Look at this occupational habit of mine—without thinking, I just left my name. How about we just leave it at that? Anyway, your year-end performance has already hit the target, just let me have this Boss Su, okay? My dear Jiaren!"
Song Jiaren was clearly a little angry, but she just looked at Jiang Huixuan without saying anything, showing no reaction.
"Miss Song, I already told you just now: this opportunity is for you. Even if someone else calls, it won’t help them." Song Xiaodong said calmly to Song Jiaren.
"Oh please, Mr. Song, aren’t you taking yourself a bit too seriously? Even if you know Mr. Su, who he chooses to negotiate with is his business. Do you have the right to decide for him? Mr. Su already said he wants to talk to me—what exactly can you do about that?" Hearing that Song Xiaodong was threatening her chance to talk business with Mr. Su, Jiang Huixuan couldn’t help turning hostile immediately.
"I’ll show you exactly what I can do." Irritated now, Song Xiaodong picked up his phone and dialed Su Xiaoliu’s number.
"Family Head!"
"Did someone just call you about discussing an advertising deal?" Song Xiaodong asked Su Xiaoliu sternly.
"Yes. How did the Family Head know so quickly?"
