Chapter 81 You sent it while you were hitting someone
Fu Xiaochen was eavesdropping nearby.
Zhang Xinru's eyes darted around, and she pretended that the phone call hadn't ended yet, deliberately continuing to speak.
"What? You're saying you miss the young master?"
"Don't let the young master know you miss him?"
"You didn't mean to upset the young master, okay, okay, don't worry, Miss Jiajia, I won't tell the young master."
After adding fuel to the fire with a few words, Zhang Xinru pretended to hang up the phone.
"Young Master, Miss Jiajia said she doesn't want you to know she's thinking about you."
Wang Ma curled her lip, thinking that Zhang Ma was really good at making things up; she could make up any lie just to avoid being scolded.
If Miss Jiajia could say that, she would wash her hair upside down.
"A woman who says one thing and means another, who allowed her to think about me?"
Fu Xiaochen's lips curled up, and he believed what Zhang Ma had said.
The anger in my heart gradually dissipated, as if the previous anger had never existed.
Zhang Xinru secretly rolled her eyes. What a hypocrite! He'd die if he didn't pretend!
The executives looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion and astonishment.
Now you're not angry anymore?
Who called? It's so effective!
Then it dawned on them: what were they planning to do all that they'd been through all day?
Why didn't you call sooner?
Fu Xiaochen suppressed a smile and abruptly changed the subject.
"Didn't you buy fruit? Where's the fruit?"
Zhang Xinru and Wang Ma looked at him strangely.
Has he lost his memory again?
Weren't they all used to throw at people?
Zhang Xinru weighed the green dates in her hand and replied, "Here they are!" Thankfully, she hadn't thrown them away.
Fu Xiaochen didn't look at it carefully, and casually waved his hand, indicating that she should distribute it.
Zhang Xinru reluctantly placed two green dates in front of each person.
Everyone was speechless. "Are you feeding pigs here?!"
It was taken directly from the bag, so it probably hasn't been washed yet, right?
This is so unhygienic, is it even edible?
Fu Xiaochen's lips twitched when he saw that there were two green dates in front of each person.
After waiting for a long time without seeing Zhang Ma make any other move, he said in disbelief:
"That's it?" What are they doing? Are they playing house?
Anyone who didn't know better would think it was at the behest of the boss.
Zhang Xinru nodded. "This is fine. Take it or leave it."
Wang Ma quickly added, "Young Master, you've already given them the rest of the fruit."
Everyone: Nonsense! They didn't receive any at all. They're just trying to fob off a beggar with these two broken dates!
"When did I post this?" Fu Xiaochen looked over coldly.
Zhang Xinru picked up a sugarcane from the ground and waved it around. "Young Master, this was sent when you were hitting someone."
You seemed to enjoy throwing it when you were hitting people! Turns out you didn't know it was sugarcane!
Wang Ma picked up a nearby one, peeled off the outer skin, and took a bite.
"It's quite sweet. Young master, this is sugarcane. Just peel off the outer skin and bite into it."
After saying that, he took another big bite and chewed it.
Fu Xiaochen: "..."
Everyone: "..." This is outrageous.
Zhang Xinru picked up the sugarcane from the ground and gave one to everyone, including Fu Xiaochen.
"Sugarcane can replenish energy and relieve fatigue, so stop standing there and eat it!"
Everyone: Is this a slap followed by a sweet treat? Can we refuse?
Remembering that they had bought the fruit themselves, Wang Ma quickly gave Zhang Ma a wink.
Zhang Xinru thought for a moment and praised, "Young Master, sugarcane symbolizes continuous advancement and a successful career. We went to a far place to buy it."
Then he deliberately muttered, "Buying fruit isn't cheap! Tell us quickly that you'll reimburse us."
These words were interpreted differently by the audience.
It was as if they were saying, "This is the sugarcane they worked so hard to buy, don't be ungrateful."
You have to eat, whether you want to or not.
Only Fu Xiaochen knew what Zhang Ma meant by those words, and he snorted coldly.
"The lunch I treated you to wasn't cheap either!"
Two broken sugarcanes aren't worth many dollars, and he didn't even think they were shameful!
Zhang Xinru and Wang Ma immediately understood from these words that Fu Xiaochen was not planning to reimburse them.
They barely ate any food at noon; the driver ate the whole table of food.
The two of them looked like they had lost their parents, and even the sugarcane in their hands didn't taste good anymore.
I lost a lot of money today.
Seeing everyone unhappy made Fu Xiaochen feel even better.
"Since sugarcane is a good omen for business, everyone should have a good taste!"
Everyone held it in their hands, unsure how to eat it, their disgusted looks impossible to hide.
What's so delicious about this? My cheeks are sore from chewing it!
They paid for all this food!
Zhang Xinru and Wang Ma vented their resentment by eating sugarcane.
For a moment, the conference room was filled with the sounds of chewing, interspersed with "cough cough," "spit," and "slurp"...
Those with bad teeth dared not complain and could only grit their teeth and suck hard.
Seeing that everyone was enjoying their meal, Fu Xiaochen curiously picked up the sugarcane and took a bite, but couldn't get it through.
Huh? He just doesn't believe it!
Why can others bite it, but he can't?
Then he took another big bite, and it took him a while to taste a little sweetness.
Fu Xiaochen frowned, his gaze towards Zhang Ma and Wang Ma somewhat displeased.
This sugarcane is terrible; it's all fibrous residue, like chewing on tree bark.
"Tell me your thoughts."
This seemingly random statement left everyone puzzled.
What does the CEO mean? Does he want them to express their opinions on sugarcane?
Some hesitated, their words ambiguous.
"Um... although it's a bit tough to chew... ptooey... but we... ptooey... can still get a taste of sweetness..."
Fu Xiaochen pinched the bridge of his nose and raised his hand to signal them to continue.
Seeing that the president wasn't angry, the group grew even bolder.
"For... pfft... older people... ugh... it's a bit of a mouthful."
"That's right, that's right."
Zhang Xinru and Wang Ma gave them unfriendly looks. "Put it down if you're not going to eat. Nobody's forcing you to eat."
You don't spend a penny, but you cause a lot of trouble.
Fu Xiaochen then realized that they were talking about sugarcane.
"Idiots, I asked you to talk about work, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Someone quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "We used sugarcane as the proportion."
"We need to... ptooey... squeeze every last drop out of our customers... crunch crunch... that's how everyone gets a taste of success."
"Yeah."
Click, click... Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey... Ptooey...
"The more you chew this sugarcane, the more energetic you become... ptooey... just like how we get more energetic the more we work... cough cough... sweet from beginning to end... crunch crunch... victory after victory."
Fu Xiaochen: "..."
Is this sugarcane absolutely necessary to eat?
The meeting didn't end until almost the end of the workday; all the time was wasted eating sugarcane.
Finally, Zhang Xinru and Wang Ma hitched a ride back to the villa with Fu Xiaochen.
Great, that saves me some money.
