”I’ve already dropped it, and it’s thanks to you,” she was already at her wit’s end and didn’t need him to add insult to injury with such sarcastic remarks.
”If you’d like, I can compensate you for your loss.”
A very attractive offer, but how could she let a phone compromise her dignity!
Asking for compensation would be too petty.
Although she really wanted to, the other party was a super important client, so she needed to make a good impression. Thus, she said something against her will.
”No need, it’s not a big deal,” she stuffed the broken phone into her pocket and steered the conversation back to business, “Mr. Ke, what did you want to see me about?”
”I wanted to tell you,” he flashed an attractive smile, “I don’t like people being late, I hope you’ll remember that.”
”Huh?” Was he speaking Martian, or was she not from Earth? Otherwise, how could she not understand what he meant?
”What I mean is that time is precious, especially for a businessperson,” Ke Nanyu said leisurely: “As an image consultant, you must know the importance of punctuality.”
”Of course I understand.”
She was even more confused, completely unable to grasp the key point of his words. Had she been made stupid by Jiang Pingzhe’s anger?
Seeing her puzzled expression, he added: “You were late. Do I need to explain it more clearly?”
”Ah? I was late?” She hurriedly checked her watch, wondering if this unreliable device had caused her to be late.
”You should have been in my office at 10:30 yesterday morning, right?” He shook his head, “I thought entrusting the task would put my mind at ease, but it seems I overestimated you.”
Yuan Xingcan’s eyes widened, “Mr. Ke, you must be mistaken. I definitely sent someone over.”
”I didn’t see anyone.”
That dead Yang Qing! She didn’t come, causing her to take the blame!
No wonder she was nowhere to be seen, she was too ashamed to show her face!
”I’m truly sorry,” she bowed deeply, “I don’t know what happened, but I really did send someone. Once I figure it out, I’ll give you an explanation.”
”No need,” he looked at her, his smile not entirely innocent, though someone as obtuse as Yuan Xingcan couldn’t tell.
