Are you crazy? I became the secretary of the school beauty's mother!

The atmosphere in the car was a little quiet.

Qin Ran drove silently to the destination, the World Trade Center.

Su Qingmo took out a tablet to handle emails. During the more than 40-minute journey, he received three calls.

Each call lasted for a long time.

It was really busy.

But he still took time to go to the mall to buy clothes for Qin Ran.

Qin Ran was grateful for this.

He could see that Su Qingmo was not a boss who only painted big pictures.

Qin Ran planned to work hard.

Otherwise, Su Qingmo would probably not keep him.

After driving into the World Trade Center, Qin Ran skillfully reversed into the garage.

After getting off the car, Su Qingmo saw Qin Ran holding a brochure and a notebook, and reminded him, "Go back and buy a briefcase."

"Okay, I'll buy one after get off work."

Su Qingmo nodded, walked to the lobby, and explained the purpose of this trip.

"We are going to visit a client, Founder Group."

"They acquired an energy storage company and are preparing to do due diligence on the acquisition."

"In addition to us, there is another competitor, but we have a better chance."

"Twenty-nine floors."

Qin Ran silently digested the information Su Qingmo gave him.

He had heard of Founder Group, which has a market value of tens of billions and is one of the top 500 companies in China.

In the early years, he made his fortune in real estate, then in supermarket chains, and in recent years he has entered the investment field.

The current market conditions for energy storage are average, but it will usher in a small peak in a few years.

The return on investment is relatively high, and the current market conditions are not good, which is indeed a good time for mergers and acquisitions.

But Qin Ran didn't have much time to think.

The elevator door opened, and Qin Ran followed Su Qingmo.

The receptionist asked, "Hello, what can I do for you?"

"We are from Yueying Company, and we have an appointment with Mr. Fang."

"Okay, please wait."

After a while, a young man in a suit and tie, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and with an elegant appearance came up to greet them.

"Mr. Su, you are here."

"Hello, Mr. Fang."

Fang Yunsheng glanced at Qin Ran and smiled at Su Qingmo, "Please come in. I brought some coffee from Feirui some time ago. It tastes pretty good. You can try it."

"Thank you, Mr. Fang." Su Qingmo said politely, with a cold expression on his face.

But Fang Yunsheng didn't mind, and he didn't act superior because he was the client.

"By the way, I forgot to ask the people from Shanghua Consulting to come today because I was jet lag. Is that okay?"

Su Qingmo raised his eyebrows, and his expression finally fluctuated a little.

"It's okay."

"That's good, but I still trust Mr. Su and your Yueying Company more. But I can't resist Mr. Yang's enthusiasm."

"Shanghua Consulting is quite strong, and it's reasonable to be one of the candidates."

"Hahahaha"

A hearty laugh came.

A square-faced, middle-aged man in his early forties applauded.

"Mr. Su is generous. No wonder Yueying has become one of the top ten in the industry in just a few years. It's amazing!"

"Mr. Yang is too polite." Su Qingmo said with a fake smile.

Yang Shanghua didn't even look at Qin Ran, and smiled, "Since it's such a coincidence, why don't we go together and save Mr. Fang's time."

Fang Yunsheng looked at Su Qingmo and asked with his eyes, "How is it?"

"No problem for me."

Fang Yunsheng smiled slightly, "That's the best. I do have a meeting later. Come, please come this way. I'll make coffee for you. I've just learned a new latte art."

Yang Shanghua was surprised, "I didn't expect that I was so lucky today to drink the coffee made by Mr. Fang himself. I will definitely try it later."

"No, no." Fang Yunsheng smiled and waved his hand, saying modestly, "I just find something to do after work. I can make coffee and drink it myself to refresh myself."

"You still don't forget to work in your spare time. Mr. Fang makes me ashamed. No wonder the scale of the group is getting bigger and bigger."

"Mr. Yang, don't praise me anymore. I'm not that great. It's all customer support." Fang Yunsheng's smile became even bigger.

When he was about to enter the inner room, Yang Shanghua suddenly said, "This young man doesn't need to go in, right?"

Qin Ran, who has always been treated as a transparent person, has something in his mind that he doesn't know whether to say or not.

He is not a rookie in the workplace. He has dealt with many monsters.

He heard a lot of things just now.

Shanghua Consulting, where Mr. Yang works, is most likely Yueying's competitor.

Fang Yunsheng seems to be interested in Su Qingmo, but he knows how to handle things.

It's better than a simple business customer relationship, but it doesn't seem too deliberate.

Yang Shanghua is a businessman with a long history in the business world.

, all kinds of flattering words come out of his mouth, he is not embarrassed, and the other party is also happy.

But Qin Ran doesn't like the two.

It's not because the two ignored him, but he thinks Fang Yunsheng is not as easy to talk to as he seems.

What jet lag is just an excuse.

Deliberately letting two competitors meet, this method is not uncommon.

Like a hypocrite, wearing a mask that looks harmless and kind.

Yang Shanghua is the oldest, but he is not embarrassed at all when flattering Fang Yunsheng.

Qin Ran even suspects that the two have reached some kind of consensus.

It is not easy for Su Qingmo to run a company in such an environment.

But the time they have been together is too short, and he can't see it no matter how much.

To Qin Ran's surprise, Su Qingmo did not agree.

"He is my assistant, Qin Ran, you can listen."

Su Qingmo introduced Qin Ran's identity in a flat voice, with a sense of toughness in his words.

Yang Shanghua's face looked a little bad when he heard it, but he soon returned to smile.

"Looks very young, new recruit, right? Young man, you are lucky to follow Mr. Su, learn well, the things we talk about are not accessible to ordinary people in the industry."

Qin Ran nodded, "Mr. Su is indeed a good boss."

Yang Shanghua frowned, there was nothing wrong with Qin Ran's words, but it made people feel a little uncomfortable.

At this time, Fang Yunsheng said, "Don't stand here, come in and sit, I'll make coffee."

There is a different world inside, like a small club.

In addition to the leather sofa, there is also a bar and a billiard table.

There is a girl in a waitress uniform in the bar.

Fang Yunsheng walked into the bar and made three cups of coffee by hand. Qin Ran's coffee was made by the girl.

"Try it, this coffee is rare, and there are very few authentic ones. I was given it by a local friend."

Yang Shanghua sniffed, "It smells so good, such a fragrant and beautiful coffee, I can't bear to drink it."

"Hahaha" Fang Yunsheng said with a smile, "Coffee is for drinking, Mr. Su, try it too."

Su Qingmo nodded slightly, took a sip and put it down.

Yang Shanghua was suddenly surprised, "Mr. Fang, how come mine is a grass, and Mr. Su's is love, you treat them differently. The latte art is different."

Fang Yunsheng's little thoughts were said, and he was not embarrassed.

"It's harder to draw a latte art with grass than with a heart, but I'm not good enough, so I'm learning how to draw a tulip."

"It's already very good. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought it was bought from a coffee shop."

"I don't deserve it. The last time I went to Mr. Yang's company, his latte art skills were better than mine."

"That was done by my assistant. It's not as good as Mr. Fang's skills. It's far worse."

Yang Shanghua turned around and asked with a smile, "Young man, can you draw latte art? I heard that Mr. Su also likes to drink coffee."

Su Qingmo frowned slightly and was about to speak when Qin Ran spoke.

"Just a little bit."
