Because this condition sounded so inconsistent with ordinary business negotiations, the secretary was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he said every word very seriously.
"President……"
"President……?"
After the secretary finished speaking, he didn't hear a reply from his president for a long time, so he called out a few times with some uncertainty.
Shen Zong asked in a deep tone, "Is this the only request?"
The secretary replied firmly, "That's it!"
"..."
Shen Zong put his mobile phone to his ear and was silent for a long time.
**
The next day was the day of the parent-teacher conference at Beijing No. 1 Middle School.
Outside the school gate are parents with their children. As the annual day for parents to come to school, today is obviously a weekend, but it seems even more lively than usual.
The parking lot was full, with low-key business cars mixed in with a few luxury cars.
Parents passing by couldn't help but take a few more glances at the cars.
During the parents' meeting in the classroom, students can move around freely, but cannot leave the school. This requirement may be to make it easier for parents to come out of the meeting and scold the children in their ears as soon as possible...
It is now less than half an hour before the parent-teacher meeting officially starts. Teachers from each class are arriving one after another, and you can feel the slightly nervous atmosphere of greetings in the corridor.
What most parents envy the most is the key class.
This second model exam, the overall score ranked first in the whole grade.
Among them, the most popular student parent is Shen Cunyi!
It shouldn't have been him originally, because the best student in class one was Qin Langchuan.
But because Qin Langchuan's grandfather is the principal of the school, the Qin siblings enjoy privileges at the annual parent-teacher meeting and do not need to attend.
As a result, Shen Cunyi, a successful man whose daughter has excellent grades and is married to the principal's Qin family, has become the focus of other parents' attention.
Some people gathered at the door of class one, and parents rushed to talk to Shen Cunyi.
"Director Shen, I am XX's father. When I saw your car outside, I thought it looked familiar. I didn't expect you to be here in person."
"Boss Shen, it's a pleasure to meet you. I didn't expect to see you here. My son and your son usually have a very good relationship..."
"I have heard our children mention it a long time ago. Not only is Director Shen successful in his career, but his children are also so promising. It is really enviable!"
Among the people who came to attend the parent-teacher meeting, in addition to Shen Cunyi, there were also many well-known big bosses in the business world, such as the rich second-year student Xie Changmin who often played with Qin Langchuan. His father Xie Dong's company was doing well. No, Shen Cunyi had cooperated with him.
When parents see these big bosses, their eyes light up like spotlights.
Especially those middle-aged fathers who have been struggling in the workplace for more than ten or twenty years and whose hairline is in danger.
If it weren't for the parent-teacher conference, they wouldn't be able to talk to such a person!
Director Xie was also overwhelmed, just like Shen Cunyi.
Shen Cunyi looked through the parents blocking his way to see Dong Xie, and nodded to him unsteadily, both of them with wry smiles on their faces.
"Dr. Shen's children are not only promising, but we even dare not think about marrying into a family. Even if they don't take the college entrance examination, they will live a lifetime of prosperity and peace of mind!"
At this moment, another parent said something. Shen Cunyi shook his head in a low-key manner, and his gestures naturally showed his magnanimity, "It's inappropriate to say this. The children are still young, and they still focus on their studies."
"Look at Mr. Shen's pattern..."
"By the way, Mr. Shen, how did your daughter and her fiancé meet? Such a good son-in-law is so enviable. Tell us about it and let us learn from it. My daughter almost worries me to death!"
Facing such flattering parents, Shen Cunyi looked slightly disdainful and said perfunctorily, "They met in school. You should also know. Sorry, excuse me."
As he said that, he passed between the parents. Xie Dong also tacitly found a reason to leave. The two of them met and went to the stairwell to smoke.
The parents who had just gathered around Shen Cunyi looked at each other with strange expressions.
"Isn't that right...How come the eldest lady of the Shen family and Mr. Jiang met in school? Boss Shen also said that we should know too..."
"Yes, I heard from my children that the only time Mr. Jiang came to school was the psychology lecture some time ago, wasn't it? That was all after they got engaged."
"Hey, you just don't want us to know. Shen Wanwan is really bringing glory to the Shen family!"
In the stairwell, Shen Cunyi still had no doubt that all the attention he had just received was attributed to his favorite little daughter.
Shen Cunyi and Xie Dong each lit a cigarette.
Director Xie smiled bitterly, "Parents nowadays are really proactive, and they don't want to gather around like just now. You and I asked each other, whose name can we remember?"
Shen Cunyi nodded in agreement, "We are willing to cooperate, and it is all for the sake of the children."
"Yes, the senior year of high school is the most important year for our children. How can we parents not worry about it?" Xie Dong took a puff of cigarette and smiled casually, which was quite similar to his second-generation son. "Shen Dong’s daughter is a daughter, and daughters make people worry-free. Unlike my son, I have been hearing him mention a girl in school to his friends on the phone recently. I asked him who it was, but he still wouldn’t tell me, making it mysterious. Yes, I don’t know if we are in love!”
Shen Cunyi also smiled when he heard this, "It's normal for boys to have some secrets at this age, but Mr. Xie doesn't need to worry too much. The one who can interest Young Master Ling must be an outstanding socialite."
Xie Yuzhou couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this, "I hope so."
Although Shen Cunyi said this just now, he was actually thinking in his heart: I hope the girl Mr. Xie falls in love with is not their Xiaoxi.
Although the Shen family and the Xie family have a good relationship, his Xiaoxi is already engaged after all.
Girls are so good that it’s hard for a father not to worry about her!
While the two were chatting, the door to the stairwell was suddenly pushed open without warning.
A middle-aged woman came in. When she saw the two people wearing famous brands in front of her, she immediately smiled flatteringly and said, "Sorry, I didn't expect anyone here to use them."
This middle-aged woman is also a parent of a class one student.
It was none other than Bai Mianyu's mother.
The high imitation bag that once carried on the woman's shoulders has now been replaced by an authentic one. It can be seen that she has been carefully dressed up, but her every move still exudes a strong sense of Koi citizen.
No matter how beautiful this kind of woman is, in the eyes of men like Shen Cunyi and Xie Dong, there are only five words -
'Can't get on the stage. '
The two of them frowned at the same time, but out of politeness, they also pretended to put out their cigarettes.
Bai Mianyu's mother quickly waved her hands cautiously, "Two bosses, continue, I was just passing by. I heard that a big shot came to the first floor, and many parents passed by. I thought of taking a shortcut, but I didn't expect to disturb the two bosses. !”
After saying that, he smiled shyly and hurriedly walked through the stairwell and went downstairs.
Director Xie took a look and asked strangely, "Aren't there ordinary classes on the first floor and the first floor?"
Whose parents can be so popular in ordinary classes...
But seeing that Shen Cunyi looked a little embarrassed, Director Xie realized that Mr. Shen also had a daughter at home, who seemed to be in the ordinary class.
Shen Cunyi was a little reluctant to mention it further. He put out his cigarette and took out his mobile phone. "I'll ask my sons to see who is here."
Xie Dong slightly nodded awkwardly.
To be honest, Shen Cunyi still doesn't know which son came to hold a parent-teacher conference for his eldest daughter in the end, so he took this opportunity to ask them both.
He first sent a message to the most likely youngest son and second son, asking them if they had arrived at school and if they had heard of any big shots coming.
The Shen family has strict upbringing, and messages from their elders must be replied to immediately.
[Shen Ye: I don’t know, my eldest brother didn’t let me go. 】
[Shen Jie: I'm busy. Father, please ask your elder brother. 】
He responded instantly, but his attitude seemed very cold.
Shen Cunyi frowned. Could it be that the boss went in the end?
Shen Cunyi had no choice but to send another message to his eldest son.
The reply received directly confused Shen Cunyi.
[Shen Zong: I didn’t go either. 】
Shen Cunyi, "???"
[Shen Zong: But there is no need to ask, father. I think I should know who they say the big shot is...]
A second later, Shen Zong sent the person's name.
Shen Cunyi's hand trembled, and his body suddenly froze——
**
At the same time, here on the first floor.
Bai Mianyu's mother searched for a long time, only to see a few beautiful women carrying designer bags in the corridor, surrounding a noble lady heading towards Class 9.
"Could it be that the big shot they are talking about is that lady?"
However, in her opinion, the lady in the middle did not seem to attract as much attention as the beautiful women surrounding her, because the bags carried by those beautiful women were all styles and makeup that Bai Mianyu's mother had often seen in magazines. Also very trendy.
The woman walking in the middle only wore decent light makeup, and the clothes and bags she wore were from brands that Bai Mianyu's mother didn't recognize.
But the woman herself has a very good temperament, and among the crowd, she is still the first to be noticed.
Ning Manli had always been escorted into Class 9 by those women. She didn't need to ask about her son's position. Tang Jiaojiao's mother had already told her Jiang Heng's position in the classroom next semester very flatteringly.
This is not the first time Ning Manli has held a parent-teacher conference for her son in school. She has met the parents of those students before.
Ning Manli had heard about how popular his son was with girls in school.
In fact, if Ning Manli dresses up, she can definitely outshine Tang Jiaojiao's mother and the others, but there is no way, Jiang Suiwen is a very low-key person.
He would not use his connections to transfer his son to a key class, and he also did not like his wife being too high-profile.
Except for a few members of the Qin family, few people in the school know Jiang Heng's true identity, and neither does Tang Jiaojiao's mother.
But they are still willing to consciously and proactively win over Ning Manli. In addition to being rubbed to the bone by their daughters, there is another more important reason...
Tang Jiaojiao's mother knew the brand of Ning Manli's clothes.
That brand is not in the market. In other words, even if you have money, you can't buy it.
That brand specializes in providing services to high-ranking officials and their families...
Tang Jiaojiao's father has been trying his best to cling to the power field, so Tang Jiaojiao's mother can have this insight.
Ever since Tang Jiaojiao was a freshman in high school, Tang Jiaojiao's mother first met Master Jiang's mother at a parent-teacher meeting and saw that she was wearing this brand.
This is still the case.
"Madam, I'm sorry, I would like to ask who is that lady..."
Just as Tang Jiaojiao's mother was about to enter the classroom, Bai Mianyu's mother pulled her arm and stopped her.
Bai Mianyu's mother is not from the upper class, and she doesn't know any big shots.
She couldn't see the place, but she was very curious, so she wanted to stop someone and ask.
Tang Jiaojiao's mother looked at Bai Mianyu's mother, then showed disgust.
There are so many parents who want to get to know Mr. Jiang’s mother, and it seems that they want to compete with his daughter.
Tang Jiaojiao's mother calmly shook off Bai Mianyu's mother's hand, "Can you help your daughter ask? Sorry, it's not convenient to tell."
Tang Jiaojiao's mother had an arrogant attitude, and Bai Mianyu's mother was disappointed.
She curled her lips in annoyance.
I'm just a parent of an ordinary class, what's there to be proud of?
So what if she was asking for her daughter?
At least her daughter is in a key class!
Every year, parent-teacher conferences are indispensable with these famous scenes of intrigue, but this year seems to be particularly exciting.
Tang Jiaojiao's mother was delayed for a while by Bai Mianyu's mother. At this moment, she saw Ning Manli entering the classroom being surrounded by a group of vixens.
Now she was anxious to go in, and her big white legs in black stockings suddenly bumped into something.
"Hey——!" Tang Jiaojiao's mother screamed in pain.
Lu Zhiwen was pushing his third master's wheelchair from behind. The door to the classroom was originally not wide, and when his third master was about to go in, the parent of the student suddenly barged in without looking at the way.
Lu Zhiwen asked his third master worriedly, "I'm sorry, third master, didn't I bump into you?"
Jiang Zhiyan glanced into the classroom expressionlessly, and Lu Zhiwen understood. It seemed that his third master was in a good mood today, and that student's parents were quite lucky.
Lu Zhiwen continued to push up the wheelchair.
Tang Jiaojiao's mother instantly felt a terrifying coldness passing by her. However, when she saw the scratch on her expensive stockings caused by the wheelchair, she was instantly overcome with anger.
"Whose parents are you? Are your legs and feet bad, and your eyes bad? You bump into someone and you don't even know how to apologize?!"
Jiang Zhiyan's wheelchair slowly stopped, and the back row of the originally bustling classroom became quiet for a moment.
Tang Jiaojiao's mother didn't think anything of it at all. She folded her arms ignorantly and arrogantly, waiting for the man in the wheelchair to apologize to him.
Ning Manli didn't know what was going on and looked over.
But with this glance, Ning Manli stood up directly.
When Tang Jiaojiao's mother saw Ning Manli walking towards her, her heart immediately became beautiful, thinking that Ning Manli was trying to support her.
However, the next second, Ning Manli passed her directly and came to Jiang Zhiyan.
Ning Manli's expression was very surprised, and she even asked a little cautiously, "Yanyan, why are you here?"
