Chapter 522. The Abominable Summer
This middle-aged man was the boss of the company. He didn't come here every day as he also had a factory and a few stores in addition to this place. Moreover, the boss was the boss, so he didn't need to work every day.
The owner's name was Zhang Jiu Jin, but his original name was actually Zhang Jiu Jin, and it was said that he chose this name because he was born with a weight of nine Jin. Later on, he felt that this name was too vulgar, and he could not make it onto stage, so he changed it to Zhang Jiu Jin.
Zhang Jiu Jin was not someone from Beijing, his wife and children were all at home, so he could relax here and boldly take care of their mother. When Zhang Jiu Jin did not come to work, Du Qing treated him as the boss' wife.
Ning Jie quickly entered Zhang Jiu Jin's office. Before she even sat down, she took the initiative to say, "Boss, the design of the new model hasn't been completed yet, it might take a few more days. I will try my best to finish it by next week."
"Ning Jie, take a seat first." Zhang Jiu Jin said in an amiable manner, "There's no need to rush with the design. The designs you designed earlier were all sold quite well. I intend to continue selling them for a period of time. This way, the longer you sell them, the better your reputation will be."
Ning Jie sat down, "Boss, do you need anything else from me?"
"Yes, I have some personal matters to attend to." Zhang Jiu Jin nodded, "I heard that you know the Godly Doctor Xia?"
Hearing this, Ning Jie almost broke down. Why was it summer again?
Ning Jie really wanted to curse, but since this was her boss, she couldn't scold him. She could only say with a bitter face, "Boss, actually, I only met him twice that summer. I really can't be considered familiar with him."
"Ning Jie, I know there might be a lot of people looking for you now, don't get annoyed. These days, who isn't suffering from minor ailments. Me too, I'm not young anymore, I have a lot of social activities, exercise less, and my body isn't too good either." Zhang Jiu Jin's voice was very gentle, "Actually, I have nothing else, I just want to see if you can help contact Divine Doctor Xia, or if you know where he is, I can personally go visit him, I just want him to help me take a look, and give me a prescription or something."
"Boss, I …" Ning Jie was depressed. Did the boss listen to what she had to say? She clearly said that she wasn't close to summer!
"Ning Jie, don't be so nervous. I already said it's a private matter, so I'm asking for your help. Of course, if you think it's inconvenient, then that's fine too." Zhang Jiu Jin did not give Ning Jie a chance to explain.
Ning Jie had nothing to say this time. She nodded listlessly and replied feebly, "Boss, I'll do my best. If I can get in touch with him, I'll talk to him about this."
As she said this, Ning Jie thought to herself, if she couldn't reach her in the summer, then she couldn't be blamed. In her opinion, it was unlikely that she could reach her in the summer, because she really didn't know what to call her in the summer, and she didn't think she would come back in the summer.
"Then I'll be troubling you." Zhang Jiu Jin was very happy.
"Boss, I'll go out and do something first." Ning Jie said helplessly.
"Alright, you can go now. Don't tire yourself out too much. You need to rest when you need to." Zhang Jiu Jin seemed to be very concerned about Ning Jie.
"Thank you, boss." Ning Jie got up and walked out of the boss' office. She returned to her seat and for the whole morning, she felt a little unsettled. She wasn't in the mood to design clothes, so she didn't do anything at all.
Just like this, it was noon. Ning Jie called for a takeout. Her legs weren't very convenient, so she rarely went out to eat. As for the rest of the company, they all went out to eat.
Zhang Jiu Jin also brought Du Qing out the door. Even without mentioning, Du Qing was still quite a good mistress. After all, there weren't many who could be such an honorable mistress, so she had the qualifications to be proud of her.
Ning Jie was left alone in the office waiting for the takeout, but she didn't have to wait long before someone walked in.
"Excuse me, is Miss Ning Jie here?" A man in his forties appeared at the door, his tone polite.
"I'm here." Ning Jie waved her hand, feeling a bit weird. She didn't say her name when she called for takeout.
"Miss Ning, do you have time?" I have something I want to talk to you about. " The middle-aged man walked to Ning Jie's side and asked politely.
Ning Jie finally understood that the customer wasn't just giving out food, he was looking for her for a reason.
"May I ask who you are? What business do you have with me? " Ning Jie couldn't help but to ask, praying in her heart that it wasn't related to that summer guy again.
"My name is Chang Rong. Miss Ning shouldn't have eaten yet, right?" The middle-aged man quickly reported his name, "If Miss Ning is willing to give me the honor, I would like to invite Miss Ning for a simple meal."
"No need, I've already ordered takeout." Ning Jie was wondering, why would someone treat her to a meal for no reason at all? As the saying goes, if you don't have anything to offer, then just take it. This person was most likely not a good person.
"With Miss Ning's identity, how could she eat takeaway food?" Chang Rong smiled. "Miss Ning, please give me some face and follow me. I just have something that I want you to help me with. I mean no harm."
"I already said I'm not going, it's not like I know you!" Ning Jie was feeling depressed, so she naturally didn't have a good attitude towards him.
"What did you say to Uncle Rong?" A dissatisfied voice came from the door. Two young men walked in at the same time, and one of them looked at Ning Jie unhappily, "Our Uncle Rong invited you, but you're still not going? You don't care about face, do you? "Let me tell you, you have to go even if you don't want to!"
"Hey, who are you? So what if I don't go? " Ning Jie was furious. What kind of people were they? There was no need to force anyone to treat them to a meal. Fortunately, she did not agree, and these people were definitely not good people!
"If you don't want to go, then we'll take you with us!" Another young man harrumphed, "You'd better not force us to make a move, or else we won't know how important it is!"
"Hey, what do you want to do? Get out of here, or I'll call for help! " Ning Jie stood up and subconsciously kicked back a few steps. She was a little flustered.
"Miss Ning, we really have no ill intentions." At this time, Chang Rong spoke up again. "We know that you're Godly Doctor Xia's friend, so we want to invite you out for a meal. It's that simple."
Ning Jie was suddenly aggrieved. As expected, it was still that damned summer!
