Hu Eye saw off the three of them, then turned to Niu Zhuang and asked, ”Director Niu, what's going on?”
Although the way they addressed me didn't change, but the cold tone in their voices could be easily heard. In my opinion, although Hu Shuang doesn't have a heart of a woman, she isn't stupid. Anyone who saw the scene just now would be able to tell that the three red-haired men were clearly under the orders of a powerful man.
Sure enough, upon seeing Hu Shuang's unkind tone, Niu Zhuang broke out in a cold sweat, as if Hu Shuang, who was standing in front of him right now, was his boss.
”Is that so?” Hu Shuang didn't seem to care too much about this matter. He smiled and looked at Mighty. ”Since it's a misunderstanding, then it's good. Mu Fan is treating me to a meal today. I wonder if you have any money.”
”He's rich, of course he's rich. I was just about to give him the money.” Niu Zhuang chuckled and quickly took out his pen to write a cheque.
”Hehe, Little Mu, this is what was previously agreed upon. I don't have that much cash on hand, so I'll have to trouble you to go down to the bank.” Niu Zhuang handed me the cheque as he spoke.
Even though this bull-like guy could be mistaken and dark in his heart, he was still quite tactful.
However, I was a bit embarrassed when I thought about how his face had turned red with me. Not only was my salary deducted, but I had also almost worked myself to the point where I didn't even get that five thousand yuan. Now, Hu Shuang had settled it with just a few words.
”Director Hu, can I ask you something?” Seeing me accept the cheque, Hu Shuang asked Mighty again.
”Little Hu, what's the matter?”
”Who's the redhead? What's his name?” Hu Shuang didn't have any tone of discussion. His meaning was that the matter of Niu Zhuang not handing over the red hair today was not over.
As soon as Hu Shuang finished his sentence, Niu Zhuang's expression changed. He quickly leaned towards Hu Shuangliang and smiled, ”Eh, Little Hu, that was just a misunderstanding. If it wasn't out of respect for me, then forget it.”
Hearing Niu Zhuang's words, Hu Shuang chuckled, but his tone didn't change at all. He looked at Niu Zhuang with a faint smile and said, ”Chief Hu, I'm the one who gave you face, otherwise, those three guys wouldn't have been able to leave your side peacefully.”
The moment Hu Shuang said this, my heart skipped a beat. I couldn't help but to look at Hu Shuang a few more times. I thought to myself that although this girl looked innocent and romantic on the surface, this action of hers really sounded like a big sister.
However, I felt a surge of warmth in my heart. She was clearly standing up for me. Even though she had a manly attitude, I have to say that it was really good to be cared for and to have someone to stand up for her.
”Is that so?” Niu Zhuang's face looked a bit ugly. He gritted his teeth and said, ”Little Hu, they've already given me a lot of care when I opened a small company. I beg you, let's forget about this.”
However, Hu Shuang acted as if he didn't hear that. Instead, he picked up his phone and dialed.
”Hu Yunhai, I've been bullied about your stupid website!” After the call, Hu Shuang started shouting.
Needless to say, the Hu Yunhai that she spoke of was her father. This girl was truly amazing, daring to directly call him by his father's name.
Not knowing what her father had said, Hu Shuangmei's eyebrows creased as he said, ”I don't care. You have to care about this, or else I'll find a job as a cleaner next time around your company. I'll see if you can make a fool of yourself.”
After a moment of silence, Hu Shuang handed the phone over to Mighty.
Mighty looked down at the phone in Hu Shuang's hands, feeling both excited and scared. He rubbed his hands together and held the phone with both of his hands, then said with a flattering tone, ”Hello, Boss Hu. This is Xiao Niu.”
Hearing his words, I almost burst out laughing. Xiao Niu, you're still a pig.
Niu Zhuang couldn't stop nodding and bowing, as if Hu Yunhai, who was on the other end of the phone, could see him. Then, he broke out in a cold sweat as he recounted what had happened just now.
After hanging up, Mighty passed the phone into Hu's hands and asked, ”Didn't you say Mu Fan wants to invite you to dinner? Why don't you go back and prepare? The company doesn't have any work to do right now anyway.”
