Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Early the next morning, Zhong Chuhong, who originally planned to sleep in, was woken up early by Zhong's mother.

It was Zhong Chuhong's turn to take a day off, and she originally planned to sleep a little longer.

"Mom, I'm not going to work today. Can you let me sleep more?"

Rubbing her hazy eyes, Zhong Chuhong sat up reluctantly.

"Why are you still sleeping? Get up quickly and freshen up. I will take you out to do your hair and then go to New Oriental for an interview. Even if someone recommends you, you might not be able to pass the audition if you are so sloppy."

Little did Zhong Ma know that as long as Zhong Chuhong made a phone call, her contract signing would basically be settled.

But Zhong’s mother didn’t know this. She thought that Zhong Chuhong’s visit to New Oriental this time was the same as her last audition at TVB.

Zhong Chuhong didn't want Zhong's mother to know that she and Lin Daoqiu actually knew each other, so she could only get up from the bed reluctantly.

After washing her face and brushing her teeth in the bathroom, Zhong Chuhong changed her clothes and was taken out by Zhong's mother to get her hair done.

During this period, Zhong Chuhong had no time to call Lin Daoqiu. After finishing her hair, she was brought to New Oriental Company by Zhong's mother in a daze.

When the mother and daughter came to the receptionist, the other party almost laughed out loud when they saw Zhong Chuhong's appearance.

At this time, Zhong Chuhong had something painted on her face, and both sides of her face were red.

It looks similar to the makeup worn by people pretending to be stupid in comedy movies.

"What's the matter with you two?"

"Hello, we are here for an audition."

Zhong's mother didn't know what the process was like, so she thought Zhong Chuhong was coming here to audition today.

But as soon as Zhong Ma said this, Zhong Chuhong became anxious. She didn't even come for the audition today. She didn't even call Lin Daoqiu. She rushed over so recklessly. If the other party wasn't there, wouldn't it be troublesome?

"No, no... we are here..."

Zhong Chuhong quickly shook her head, but she was embarrassed to say that she came to see Lin Daoqiu, because if she said that, she might be misunderstood.

And she didn't want Mother Zhong to know that she knew Lin Daoqiu, so she didn't know what to say for a while.

Zhong Chuhong just looked anxious and at a loss. She secretly regretted that if she had known better, she should have called Lin Daoqiu first.

Zhong Chuhong's appearance made both Zhong's mother and the front desk lady feel baffled.

"Mom, why don't you go back first, and I can handle the rest by myself."

Zhong Chuhong now just wants Mother Zhong to go back first so that she can call Lin Daoqiu.

But Zhong Ma shook her head and insisted on staying.

"My dear daughter, what will you do if I'm not here? What if you are deceived then? And if you, a girl, want to talk about something then, you will definitely suffer without an adult by your side."

This time Zhong Ma was determined to stay here with Zhong Chuhong, but in fact her intention was good, because she was afraid that her daughter would suffer a loss.

If I had been present, this problem would not have arisen, and when the salary was negotiated, I would have been able to help Zhong Chuhong get more money.

"Then... then you wait for me here, I'll call my friend."

Zhong Chuhong knew at a glance that Mother Zhong was unwilling to leave, so she had no choice but to call Lin Daoqiu first.

After all, it would be too rude to run up to him so rashly, even though she was already standing inside New Oriental's company.

"Then I'll go with you."

"No mom, I can go by myself. I'll be back soon. You wait for me here."

Zhong Ma originally wanted to accompany Zhong Chuhong, but this time Zhong Chuhong shook her head and insisted that Zhong Ma wait for her here.

After Zhong Chuhong finished speaking, she turned around and ran out. Then she found a phone booth on the side of the road not far from New Oriental.

Just when Zhong Chuhong was about to find the business card Lin Daoqiu gave her yesterday, she searched around and found no trace of the business card.

Suddenly she remembered that the business card was inside the clothes she changed yesterday.

If he went back to get it now, it would take at least an hour to go back and forth, which would make Zhong Chuhong anxious.

After lingering in front of the phone booth for a long time, Zhong Chuhong finally came up with no solution, so she had to lower her head and return to the front desk of New Oriental Company.

"Ah Hong, how are you? What did your friend say on the phone?"

As soon as Zhong Ma saw Zhong Chuhong coming back, she asked her anxiously.

"Oh...he...he is now..."

Zhong Chuhong didn't know how to answer. She hesitated for a long time and couldn't say a complete sentence.

Seeing Zhong Chuhong hesitating, Mother Zhong began to become suspicious.

"He's not just joking with you, is he?"

At this moment, Zhong Ma suddenly thought of a possibility that frightened her.

"Did he say that he wanted to sign you to New Oriental Company and then trick you into dating him? Girl, you won't be fooled, right? Or are you already dating him..."

I have to say that Zhong’s mother’s imagination is too rich. Before Zhong Chuhong said anything, she had already thought of such a distant place.

If she continues to think like this, I don't know where she can think of it in the end.

"Mom, what are you thinking about? I'm not dating anyone anymore. Stop thinking about it."

Zhong Chuhong quickly explained to Mother Zhong.

But Zhong's mother obviously didn't believe Zhong Chuhong's explanation. She looked at her daughter with suspicion, just because she was worried that Zhong Chuhong had actually suffered a loss.

In order to prevent Mother Zhong from continuing to think wildly, Zhong Chuhong finally reluctantly walked to the front desk.

"Sorry, I want to see Mr. Lin Daoqiu. My name is Zhong Chuhong. I made an appointment with him to meet today."

After Zhong Chuhong finished speaking, she simply lowered her head. At this time, she looked very embarrassed.

And when she finished speaking, Mother Zhong behind her opened her eyes wide.

She has heard Lin Daoqiu's name mentioned many times. It can be said that he is the most famous and the youngest super rich man in Hong Kong now.

His daughter was actually friends with him, which was simply beyond the scope of what Mother Zhong could understand.

"Ms. Zhong, please wait a moment. I'll make a call to confirm."

After the receptionist finished speaking, she called Secretary Lin Daoqiu's landline.

"What's up?"

Lin Daoqiu's secretary Fang Jinsheng was brought up on a temporary basis. The original secretary to the president had already left with Lei Juekun.

"Assistant Fang, a lady named Zhong Chuhong here said she had an appointment with Mr. Lin."

Fang Jinsheng had never heard Lin Daoqiu mention this matter before.

He looked through Lin Daoqiu's schedule for today and saw no record of meeting Zhong Chuhong.

But to be on the safe side, Fang Jinsheng asked the front desk to wait while he went to ask Lin Daoqiu for instructions.

When Fang Jinsheng came to Lin Daoqiu's office, he knocked on the door three times. After getting Lin Daoqiu's response, he pushed the door open.
