Zuo Yang didn't seem to hear that. He was still staring at the main interviewer, Kong Jing.
"Mr. Zuo, please mind your behavior."
The person in charge of the seed capital review team was a little angry. It was the first time that she had met such an impolite interviewer. The others were not respectful, but they all had the basic qualities that entrepreneurs should have.
"It's fine."
Kong Jing didn't mind. Instead, she said calmly, "Cen Xiao, stay here. You can leave now."
Cen Xiao was Kong Jing's personal secretary. Wen Ling had already been sent out to be a middle-level leader. Hearing that, the subordinates of the seed capital were struck dumb for a second, then they immediately packed up and left. They even carefully closed the door with a "click" sound.
It was obvious that Chairman Kong knew this interviewee named Zuo Yang.
There were only three people left in the spacious room. Cen Xiao, the secretary, was sitting at the back with her head lowered. If Kong Jing hadn't told her to, she would have become one with the wooden chair. She even slowed down her breathing. She just wanted to be a human-shaped air.
"When did you come back?"
After a while, Kong Jing broke the silence.
"I … Ahem, I came back at the beginning of the year."
Zuo Yang mumbled, and the shock in his eyes slowly faded. However, other than embarrassment, there was also a great deal of disappointment.
He was embarrassed because he finally understood that Nutshell Electronics and the seed capital should be one and the same. It was funny when he thought about it. He had just dissed her, and now he was begging her to invest in him.
He was disappointed because Kong Jing asked him, "When did you come back?" She really treated Zuo Yang as an ordinary classmate.
She didn't even want to say 'long time no see' to me. "
Zuo Yang thought to himself. The pain in his chest had already affected his breathing.
"You came back at the beginning of the year. That's quite a long time."
Kong Jing nodded. She opened the file and said, "I'll respond to the business plan you submitted on behalf of the seed capital. Because there are some problems, the seed capital probably won't invest in it."
"Oh, okay."
Zuo Yang responded casually. He didn't seem to care about the business plan now.
The room became quiet again. Cen Xiao was writing "1, 2, 3, 4 …" on her notebook. She immediately stopped when the conversation stopped. She was afraid that the sound of the pen sliding on the paper would be too noisy.
"Because …"
Kong Jing hesitated for a moment before speaking again. The topic was still about the "business plan".
"Due to the lack of a certain degree of operability, doing business is actually a very complicated subject. The trajectories of those successful people may seem very simple, but due to the personality of the entrepreneur, the degree of teamwork, and the needs of the society at that time, it is actually very difficult to replicate."
Royal Sister Kong seemed to be explaining the reason, but at the same time, she seemed to be advising him, "Confidence is a good thing, but you must be down-to-earth."
Zuo Yang slowly raised his head. Kong Jing seemed to be taking the opportunity to remind him that the discussion about "replicating Chen Hansheng's path of success" was actually very ignorant.
"Are you concerned about me?"
Zuo Yang suddenly asked.
"You're my university classmate, so I'll naturally give you some appropriate reminders."
Kong Jing's expression did not change at all when she replied.
"Just classmates?"
Zuo Yang could not help but take a step forward.
"Hua la!"
The secretary, Cen Xiao, who had become one with the wooden chair, suddenly came back to life. She stood up and glared at Zuo Yang coldly.
As long as he took another step closer, Cen Xiao would immediately contact the building's security.
"Little girl, what are you worried about? Do you know my relationship with Kong Jing? It's impossible for me to hurt her! "
Zuo Yang explained sincerely, but because he was too agitated, there was a kind of hysterical entanglement in his voice.
Cen Xiao did not respond. In short, as long as Zuo Yang came a little closer, she would immediately deal with him to protect her boss's safety.
"Sigh ~"
Kong Jing shook her head and stood up to pack her things, "I've said what I wanted to say, you should think about it carefully."
Today's scene had deeply affected Zuo Yang, so much so that his emotions were a little out of control. Kong Jing was worried that something would go wrong, so she picked up the documents and prepared to leave.
Zuo Yang watched as Kong Jing brushed past him. He really wanted to grab her arm and tell his university sweetheart loudly, "I haven't forgotten you, I still like you, do you know that?"
If Kong Jing was the manager of the Jianye branch of Shentong Express, Zuo Yang would definitely do that when he returned from abroad.
Because at that time, Zuo Yang could look down on Kong Jing. The superiority of his identity gave him the courage to act like a shrew, and he could even say loudly, "Don't make low-tech express deliveries, I can bring you a different life!"
Whether Kong Jing would reject him or not, it could satisfy Zuo Yang's ego and vanity as a man.
However, Kong Jing was now the director of Nutshell Electronics, a famous female entrepreneur in China, so Zuo Yang backed off. Not only did he not dare to act like a shrew, but he also did not have the courage to confess his love to her again.
He was really worried that he would be sent to the police station by the security guards, which would be very embarrassing.
"Wait a minute …"
Just when Kong Jing opened the door with a creak, Zuo Yang suddenly called her from behind.
Kong Jing turned around, and Cen Xiao stood in front of her vigilantly.
"Let's go out for lunch at noon."
This was Zuo Yang's last request. After today's "accidental meeting", he no longer hoped to reconcile with Kong Jing, and he also gave up the idea of copying Chen Hansheng's path.
He only wanted to have lunch with Kong Jing, and then completely let go of this unrealistic university romance.
"Forget it."
Kong Jing did not agree. She thought for a while and said, "I prefer the food in the cafeteria."
"This is the last time."
Zuo Yang still insisted, "I'll go back to Guangdong after lunch. You're right. I'm not suitable for entrepreneurship. Let's go back and see if there's a suitable position in Yuefa Securities."
Both Zuo Yang and Kong Jing were from Guangdong. Their alma mater was the current Yuefa Finance College.
After hearing this, Kong Jing finally stopped and looked at Zuo Yang seriously.
Zuo Yang suppressed his fluctuating emotions and faced her calmly.
"You're a guest from afar. Let me treat you to lunch in the company cafeteria."
Kong Jing said with a smile.
Zuo Yang saw her gentle smile, and suddenly his nose felt a little sore.
Why did he go abroad in the first place?
Or he could grit his teeth and persevere when it was hard. Why did he have to do it with that foreign woman?
If that's the case, we'll still be the perfect couple in the eyes of our classmates.
… ….
Nutshell Electronics now had three cafeterias, two for employees, and one for managers above P7. P7 and above were middle and senior executives with an annual income of hundreds of thousands. No one was surprised that Zuo Yang, who was next to Chairman Kong, was here.
However, Zuo Yang's eyes were full of nostalgia. He looked at the plates in front of him and said, "You stood next to me when I was queuing up just now. I feel like I'm back in college."
Kong Jing smiled and didn't say anything. After lunch, she walked Zuo Yang out of Nutshell Electronics with her secretary, Cen Xiao.
With the imminent departure, Zuo Yang felt as if there was a stone pressing down on his heart. However, he tried his best to look relaxed and relieved. At this moment, Cen Xiao felt that Zuo Yang was a little pitiful because from his expression, it was very likely that he would not be able to let go for the rest of his life.
"Phew …"
Under the "K ♥" logo at the door, Zuo Yang took a deep breath. When he was about to open his arms to say something, Kong Jing reached out her hand first, "See you later."
Zuo Yang was stunned for a second. He held back the words "hug" in his heart and touched Kong Jing's finger politely, "See you later."
Although there was no "long time no see", there was "see you later". Zuo Yang's college romance had been eroded by time when he got married.
Zuo Yang wanted to ask something when they were waiting for a taxi, but he didn't know where to start. When the taxi was about to arrive, Zuo Yang finally made up his mind.
"When are you going to find a girlfriend?"
He asked casually, "Are you going to work for Chen Hansheng for the rest of your life?"
… ….
