Chapter 13 (2/2)
Pang Jing Dong knew clearly what she meant. Before this, he had already prepared himself mentally, that Shen Jia Yao would not invite him to a dinner just to talk about the old days, even though he hoped Shen Jia Yao did not change into such a realistic person.
However, Pang Jing Dong was not willing to twist the truth, even if the one before him was Shen Jia Yao who had been someone close to him for a long time. ”Regarding the company's problem, I prefer you to approach it by observing the situation yourself, rather than listening to other people's opinions. For example, the way I see and handle things might be different from yours.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Jia Yao explained herself without continue asking, ”I just want to discuss the arrangement of the positions with you, not to discuss the people.”
Pang Jing Dong asked with a grin, ”I am just a regular employee. I don't think I have any right to partic.i.p.ate in the decision-making of the company. Unless you want me to be your business partner?”
”I only hope that you won't be late to work anymore!” Shen Jia Yao replied.
”At least give me a chance to be promoted?”
”Never knew you are so dedicated!” Shen Jia Yao smiled.
”I was just joking, don't take it seriously!” Pang Jing Dong's smile disappeared and said thoughtfully, ”I don't want to live a tiring life!”
Shen Jia Yao glanced at Pang Jing Dong, and said with a disappointing tone, ”Striving for excellence is indeed tiring! But the sense of achievement is irreplaceable! I really hoped you didn't just say that! To be honest, when I first knew you are working in my company, I wished you to have achieved something, or at least you could help me in my business! However…”
Pang Jing Dong did not give a direct answer as he said, ”No matter what you are doing, I will always support you!”
”I only have one thing to ask from you!”
”Tell me! As long as it's not about world peace or something too ridiculous, I promise I will do it!”
”Don't be late for your work tomorrow!”
”Uh… Let's talk about world peace instead!”
Shen Jia Yao shook her head helplessly while looking at her watch and say, ”It's late now, let's call it a day!”
”I suppose I don't need to send you home!”
Shen Jia Yao smiled, ”No worries!” She then called the waitress over, ”Bills, please!” and walked toward the counter.
Maybe the restaurant was afraid its employees to keep the money themselves, so the customers had to pay at the counter. As Shen Jia Yao was pa.s.sing Pang Jing Dong while walking toward the counter, Pang Jing Dong took his wallet out and said to Shen Jia Yao, ”I'll pay!”
As soon as Pang Jing Dong opened his wallet, a business card fell out like a piece of falling leaf during the Autumn season, falling onto the table, which was picked up by Shen Jia Yao.
If anyone did what Shen Jia Yao just did, it was considered disrespectful. However, she somehow still had a sense of intimacy in front of Pang Jing Dong, plus she really wanted to know what did Pang Jing Dong do in the past ten years, although most of the time Pang Jing Dong felt like a stranger to her.
”Jing Dong, Public Relation Manager of Tony's Nightclub” Shen Jia Yao casted a sight-glance at Pang Jing Dong, before saying in a cold voice, ”I thought people doing this kind of business would use their stage names!”
Pang Jing Dong let out a wry smile and asked, ”Doesn't this count as one?”
”Just because you didn't put a surname and it sounded more intimate doesn't make it a stage name! That being said, it's fine to use your real name. Who knows which Jing Dong it's referring to!”
”If that's the case, if my name is Jing Dong, there would be other people with the same name too!”
”But it dropped from your wallet!”
”Does that necessarily mean it belongs to me? My salary was given by you too!”
”You can give your salary back to me!” After pausing for a while, Shen Jia Yao asked, ”Are you trying to say you got this from someone else!”
”Looks like even if I said that you wouldn't believe me too!”
”I don't believe there would be such a coincidence in the world!”
”If this business card is mine, I would have more of them! But I only have one on me now!”
”Maybe you've distributed them? Or you've thrown them away? Who knows, I don't want to search you anyway!”
Pang Jing Dong shook his head helplessly, ”I didn't expect you to have zero confidence in me!”
”Mr. Pang!” Shen Jia Yao threw the card onto the table, and with a defying look she said, ”I did ask you what you've been doing after my grandparents pa.s.sed away, but you did not answer me!”
”You think I wouldn't die from exhaustion if I had been a male prost.i.tute from ten years?”
”Let's leave the past behind and talk about the present. It seems like you are late to work every day because you are too busy with your job at night!”
”Why won't you believe me?”
”Look at yourself, being lazy and slothful, not making any effort to improve yourself. How do you expect me to justify your behaviors? This card gave me the answer I needed!”
”If you insisted, I have nothing else to say!” Pang Jing Dong decided not to explain anymore, who then walked toward the entrance and mumbled to himself, ”I'm seriously not a male prost.i.tute.”
