Chapter 61 Dual Identity
Xia Mingzhu said calmly: "Ziyan, I came here to talk to you about something. Do you have time now?"
Although he was just asking Zhou Ziyan if he was free, the obvious thing in his tone was that Zhou Ziyan must have time and must have a good talk with Xia Mingzhu.
Jiang Haoran smiled, let go of Zhou Ziyan, and said with a meaningful smile: "Brother, don't forget what you promised me, I'll wait."
Zhou Ziyan nodded and turned around to welcome Xia Mingzhu.
Back at the office, Xia Mingzhu sat down without hesitation and placed the folder in her hand heavily on the desk.
"Ziyan, what have you promised him?"
Since she already knew that Jiang Haoran was not Jiang Baige's biological son and Zhou Ziyan was the last one, Xia Mingzhu no longer cared about Jiang Haoran. However, it was Xia Mingzhu who was bothered by Zhou Ziyan and Jiang Haoran, but Xia Mingzhu didn't want to imagine it.
Besides, after Xia Mingzhu kicked Jiang Haoran away, she immediately took the initiative to find Zhou Ziyan. No matter how she looked at him, she always treated Zhou Ziyan as a spare tire. This feeling was particularly obvious in front of Jiang Haoran.
Even if Xia Mingzhu doesn't care what others say, Zhou Ziyan's feelings must be taken into consideration.
Zhou Ziyan smiled bitterly before answering: "It is said that something important was announced tonight, who knows what he is going to do?"
"Is that true?" Xia Mingzhu stared at Zhou Ziyan, trying to see some clues from Zhou Ziyan's eyes, but Zhou Ziyan's eyes were deep and she couldn't see anything at all.
"Director Xia came here for a special trip. He wouldn't just want to tell me about this." Zhou Ziyan poured a glass of water, put it on the desk, and said lightly.
Xia Mingzhu was already sitting in that position, and she was also Zhou Ziyan’s old superior. Besides, Xia Mingzhu’s identity is now the financial director of Baige Group, and her position is much higher than Zhou Ziyan. Zhou Ziyan poured water for her because of the respect from her subordinates to her superiors. If she asked her assistant Xu Lili to do it, she would not only seem to be apart, but Zhou Ziyan would also put on airs.
Xia Mingzhu stretched out her hand, held Zhou Ziyan's hand, looked at Zhou Ziyan, and said softly: "Ziyan, you know what kind of person Jiang Haoran is. I just want to tell you that I don't want you to get involved with him."
After a pause, Xia Mingzhu quickly said, "I'm here today. I just want to talk to you as your friend. I hope you don't mind."
Zhou Ziyan understood that Xia Mingzhu is now the financial director. From this perspective, she is a superior, so I don’t need to mention her other identity. Xia Mingzhu clearly wanted to be her own “girlfriend”.
Moreover, Xia Mingzhu first identified her dual identity, so no matter what Xia Mingzhu said or did, it would not be contrary to her identity.
This Xia Mingzhu!
If Jiang Haoran hadn't come earlier and revealed his identity to Zhou Ziyan, Xia Mingzhu had already known that Zhou Ziyan had few ways to say that there were several ways to perfunctory Xia Mingzhu without revealing traces.
But now, Zhou Ziyan has to be careful.
"Haha..." Zhou Ziyan didn't take his hand back, so he asked Xia Mingzhu to hold it back. He just smiled and said, "Mr. Xia, no matter what, Haoran is my friend, and he strongly recommended me to join Baige Group. I can have what I have done now. It can be said that he has made great contributions and is ungrateful. I dare not do anything, but if it is because of work, Mr. Xia's guidance, of course I dare not ignore it."
It seems that this is in line with Xia Mingzhu's meaning, but if you think about it carefully, Zhou Ziyan has a premise of "not daring to be ungrateful". As for whether he listens to Xia Mingzhu completely or not, Xia Mingzhu has to experience it himself. Zhou Ziyan will naturally not let Xia Mingzhu catch the topic casually.
"Loyalty and benevolence and righteousness are virtues that a man should possess. I appreciate this very much." Seeing that Zhou Ziyan's hand was pressed by him, Zhou Ziyan did not move, and there was no other expression. He didn't even blink his eyes. Xia Mingzhu had to let go and hold Zhou Ziyan's hand and smiled.
This sounds like the tone of the superior to the subordinate, but then Xia Mingzhu said: "As soon as you open your mouth, you always say 'Mr. Xia, Mr. Xia'. This is so remarkable. Can't you change the name, such as 'Mingzhu' or 'Xiao Xia', which sounds much more friendly?"
Zhou Ziyan pulled his hand back, took a few steps back, sat down on the sofa, and then said with a smile: "Mr. Xia, start by hitting me into Jinhuyuan, you are my superiors, and now, I am even more superiors. If I scream casually, wouldn't I let the employees of my subordinates follow suit and lose their upper and lower parts? Haha, what's the saying? Yes, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. I can't lead those people in this position and smear my old superiors on the face."
After all, Xia Mingzhu came suddenly, and Zhou Ziyan still couldn't understand what Xia Mingzhu's purpose was, so for Xia Mingzhu's words, Zhou Ziyan could only try to use "work" to make excuses as much as possible, so that he could leave enough room for maneuver.
After all, Xia Mingzhu is an amazing person. If there is a mistake, she will probably be caught and unwilling to let go. Zhou Ziyan will not fall to a very passive level.
Treat Xia Mingzhu with a work attitude, I became much more calm.
Seeing that Zhou Ziyan was not angry, Xia Mingzhu became a little angry: "What do I want to say to you to understand. I am the financial director now. In our future work, we will have a lot of contact. If the two of us join forces, I believe that it will not take long to make Baige Group regain its glory."
Xia Mingzhu said halfly clearly, halfly but very obscure, but she believed that Zhou Ziyan could understand it.
Those two blood reports were found on Zhou Ziyan's bed. Zhou Ziyan could not have known that he was the real prince. Although he didn't know why Zhou Ziyan didn't disclose his identity as a prince, Xia Mingzhu knew that Zhou Ziyan must have a purpose.
In addition, Xia Mingzhu is not afraid to reveal Zhou Ziyan's identity now. Once it is revealed, the first hurdle that cannot be overcome is Jiang Baige.
In this way, Xia Mingzhu could only mediate with Zhou Ziyan in front of not knowing Zhou Ziyan’s true identity, as the dual identity of Baige Group’s financial director and Zhou Ziyan’s girlfriend.
But at this point when Xia Mingzhu said that, Xia Mingzhu really knew about Jiang Haoran’s identity, so why didn’t Zhou Ziyan understand it?
Since this is the case, I am afraid that Xia Mingzhu has also known her identity.
——This is what Zhou Ziyan is most worried about.
"Mr. Xia, I really want to ask Mr. Xia. I wonder if Mr. Xia can answer?" Zhou Ziyan asked casually.
"Look, you are still 'Mr. Xia, Mr. Xia'. I feel very uncomfortable all over. You should change the name."
Zhou Ziyan has something to ask himself, that is to say, he has something to ask for him now, so he will not give Zhou Ziyan some requests at this time, and this opportunity will not be spared in vain.
"Okay, if Mr. Xia can answer my question, even if he calls you 'aunt'!" Xia Mingzhu kept beating each other, and Zhou Ziyan had to agree with shamelessness.
However, if Zhou Ziyan agreed, it would be like not to agree. What Xia Mingzhu wanted was to call Zhou Ziyan "Mingzhu" or "Xiao Xia" in the tone of a lover.
The tone and meaning of this is called "Auntie", which is naturally incompatible with Xia Mingzhu's request.
Xia Mingzhu giggled: "Good mouth...Prince...Who wants you to call that! Okay, after that, what do you want to ask?"
"The third phase of the Jinhuyuan project has been pre-sale in just a few days so far. At this rate, it is estimated that it will not last until the end of the year. Jinhuyuan will have no houses to buy. I have thought of a plan to increase real estate development, but it is probably a bit difficult in terms of funds, I don't know..."
Although the Yufang of the first and second phase project was sold out in just one month and returned billions of funds to Baige Group, compared with the capital flow of Baige Group, it can only be considered a small part. Zhou Ziyan said that to increase the development plan, it means that a huge amount of capital investment is required.
Xia Mingzhu was stunned. Unexpectedly, Zhou Ziyan was talking about this issue. Moreover, the meaning was to directly support Xia Mingzhu, the financial director.
But Xia Mingzhu really dared not understand this matter clearly. Now she expressed her full support for Zhou Ziyan. At least, Zhou Ziyan should also give a written report.
Besides, Xia Mingzhu has just taken office as the position of financial director of Baige Group, how dare she express her opinion immediately, and not to mention that the financial director is not her alone.
After a moment of being stunned, Xia Mingzhu smiled and said, "Ziyan, you are working abroad and have ideas and plans. I don't know how to do it. But when you come to Jinhuyuan, you have not been there for a day or two. You said you want to increase your development plan and do it. I should not teach you this, right!"
After a pause, Xia Mingzhu said softly: "I believe that your plan must be a plan that can make money and bring Baige Group to a higher level. As long as you make it, I will definitely do my best to support you."
Of course, Zhou Ziyan knew how a project leader should do what he should do if he had a good plan, but now, Zhou Ziyan should use this to answer his purpose.
"Okay, then I'll ask another thing. I'll call you 'Mingzhu' or 'Xiaoxia'. You won't really want me to call you 'Auntie'!"
Zhou Ziyan asked with a smile.
"Girl..." Xia Mingzhu couldn't help laughing again. Zhou Ziyan, this guy! It's really much more interesting than Jiang Haoran, and I really haven't seen it before.
"Have you been to Milan Spring?" While Xia Mingzhu was covering her mouth and still smiling sweetly, Zhou Ziyan suddenly asked her most concerned questions.
Xia Mingzhu covered her mouth, giggled, and nodded naturally.
But in just a moment, Xia Mingzhu suddenly realized the intention of Zhou Ziyan's question, and for a moment, her smile froze on Xia Mingzhu's delicate face.
Although Xia Mingzhu did not directly answer when and whether she had been to Milan Spring, Zhou Ziyan had already got the answer she wanted - exposing Jiang Haoran's identity, the root cause lies in herself.
I also blame myself for being too careless. Why didn’t I store those two blood test reports in a more secure place?
