As soon as she closed the window, she received a message from the group chat.
She had formed a group with Fu Xiaozhi, Fang Qinyang and Yuan Ye before so that they could go out to meet each other.
The message was sent by Yuanye: [I heard that you are looking for sponsorship, count me in. 】
Rongxing has been doing charity in recent years, and it is normal for the Wilderness Society to invest.
Jiang Mingzhu: [Okay, I’ll send you the PPT. 】
Just as she had just sent it to Xu Siyan, Jiang Mingzhu casually transferred the PPT to the group.
After reading it, Yuanye praised Jiang Mingzhu for a long time.
——
It is Jiang Mingzhu’s job to preach PPT to sponsors.
The foundation has just been in operation. In order to control costs, it has not hired many people. Most people have multiple jobs.
The PPT was made by Jiang Mingzhu herself, and it would not be appropriate to preach it to others.
During the meeting early the next morning, Jiang Mingzhu received the preaching task arranged by Fu Muye.
Fu Muye: "An interested company has sent someone over today, probably this afternoon. Thank you for your hard work, Mingzhu."
Jiang Mingzhu: "It's okay, I'll make time in the afternoon."
Fu Muye: "Okay, I'll contact you when the people over there arrive."
Fu Muye didn't introduce the information about the opposite company, and Jiang Mingzhu didn't ask any questions. It didn't matter who the other party was, as it wouldn't affect her progress.
When Jiang Mingzhu returned to her workstation after the meeting, she saw Xu Siyan's WeChat account as soon as she picked up her phone.
Xu Siyan: [Should I talk to you about sponsorship? 】
Jiang Mingzhu: [You can find Zhizhi or her brother. 】
Xu Siyan: [I understand. 】
When Jiang Mingzhu was about to put down her phone to work, Xu Siyan sent another message: [Please think about what I said again, and contact me after you think about it. 】
Xu Siyan didn't say it clearly, and Jiang Mingzhu knew exactly what he said. When encountering such messages, she would delete them without replying.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, Fu Muye asked his colleagues to inform Jiang Mingzhu to go to the conference room to prepare for the presentation.
Jiang Mingzhu carried the computer to the conference room, connected the projector, and stood aside waiting for the sponsor to come over.
Almost five minutes passed, and the door of the conference room was pushed open.
Jiang Mingzhu looked over after hearing the sound, and said as she walked forward: "Hello, I--"
He only said three words, and the rest of the words got stuck in his throat.
I saw Zhou Li walking in wearing a smart suit. He put one hand in his pocket and fiddled with his tie with the other. His slender fingers looked sexy and abstinent.
Fu Muye had never mentioned to Jiang Mingzhu that the so-called sponsor was Zhou Li.
But seeing Zhou Li appear, Jiang Mingzhu had a headache.
She said something very unpleasant last time. With Zhou Li's proud temperament, he probably wouldn't look for her again. Unexpectedly, within two days, he would come back again.
You don't have to think twice to know that this sponsorship is for her.
Zhou Li closed the door of the conference room and walked to Jiang Mingzhu.
He pulled out a chair and sat down, his eyes fixed on Jiang Mingzhu and never leaving.
The eyes that were usually indifferent and calm were now so hot that they couldn't hide it, making Jiang Mingzhu's scalp numb.
Zhou Li: "I haven't finished saying hello yet."
Jiang Mingzhu took a deep breath.
Zhou Li was making things difficult for her, of course she knew.
But this is work, and if she messes up, she will be affected by more than just her, so she can only endure it.
Zhou Li: "I asked Fu Muye to arrange for you to come."
This time he admitted quite simply: "Let's get started."
Zhou Li didn't talk about anything else, and Jiang Mingzhu couldn't talk to him. Although she felt unhappy, she still started preaching under his gaze.
Jiang Mingzhu tried her best to act as natural as possible, and she performed well in the process.
But Zhou Li's gaze was too hard to ignore.
"When this model of school is fully operational,
It can help more children who have been abandoned due to congenital defects to gain skills so that they will not be unable to survive after leaving the orphanage. I hope that this kind of school can be popularized in every place, but this requires a certain amount of time and publicity. "
After Jiang Mingzhu finished her final vision and concluding remarks, her eyes turned from the screen to Zhou Li.
As soon as I looked over, I met his intense gaze.
Jiang Mingzhu felt that he was quite thick-skinned, but he couldn't resist such a sight.
Jiang Mingzhu: "I'm leaving first. Mr. Zhou can consider whether to vote."
After saying that, she went to collect her computer and prepare to leave. It was not a good thing for her to be alone in the same space as Zhou Li.
When Jiang Mingzhu went to collect her computer, Zhou Li suddenly held down the back of her hand.
His palms were dry and very hot. Jiang Mingzhu's hands were cold, so he felt it even more intensely.
She subconsciously wanted to break away, but Zhou Li held her hand directly: "Why are your hands so cold? Are you sick?"
Jiang Mingzhu's heart sank. After a few seconds of pause, she began to struggle, and her tone of voice became impatient: "What does it have to do with you?"
Zhou Li: "Who does that have to do with, Xu Siyan?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "I can't be with you with anyone. I'm done with my work, please let me go."
Zhou Li: "I don't believe you like him."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Believe it or not, it has nothing to do with me."
She paused, and what she said next was even harsher than before: "Also, even if you don't like him, it's impossible for him to like you."
Zhou Li: "Why?"
When asked this question, his voice was obviously much hoarse than before, and his eyes gradually became complicated.
Perhaps because he was stung by these words, the strength in his hands also increased a lot.
Jiang Mingzhu was hurt from being held, and this pain made her brain clearer.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Is it difficult to understand?"
"I made it very clear that night. The reason I had a good attitude towards you before was because we reached a cooperation. Now I have got everything I want. I have also slept with you. I don't owe you anything." She said with a She told him in a cold and rational tone, "I can never be with you because my brother's kidney is in your mother's body."
Zhou Li: "You never thought about being with me, or you never thought about living. Jiang Mingzhu, your illness has never recovered."
He grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms. The other arm held her waist and refused to let go. His eyes were bloodshot.
Jiang Mingzhu's body froze instantly after hearing Zhou Li's words, and her mind went blank for more than ten seconds and she forgot to react.
She didn’t know how Zhou Li knew about this——
Did he guess it himself, or was it what Xu Siyan said?
Zhou Li: "You lied to everyone because Zheng Linxu said that he would only agree to your investigation after he recovered."
"When the case is over, you have to go find Pei Ye."
Every sentence he said was an affirmative sentence, and Jiang Mingzhu didn't need an answer at all.
After being exposed, Jiang Mingzhu's mood naturally didn't get much better.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Do you think you know me well?"
Zhou Li: "You admitted it."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Yes, I was pretending. My illness has never recovered. I just acted to avenge my brother as quickly as possible."
"I really thought that after seeing Zhan Yubai sentenced, I would find a place to die quietly and find my brother."
