C30 A Sudden Opportunity

A moment later, Mi Cai sent me to Luo Ben's residence. Today, I will be able to settle down in this ten-square-meter building.

I was still dizzy. I rushed straight to the bed and felt dizzy.

My eyes were half-open and half-closed. I saw Mi Cai who was busy. She found an electric kettle, boiled hot water, and went downstairs. After a while, she bought milk powder and honey and made me a cup of honey milk.

"Don't sleep first. Drink the milk."

I didn't want to move at all. I said vaguely, "Put it over there first. I'll drink it later."

"It'll be cold later."

I struggled to sit up from the bed. Mi Cai passed the milk to me and sat on the chair opposite me. She looked at me.

The milk that just rushed out was very hot and I drank very slowly. Mi Cai urged me again, "Quickly drink it. After drinking it, I will pack up and leave."

"There is nothing to pack. If you are in a hurry, then leave first."

"Wash the cup and pour you a cup of hot water. I will let you drink when you are thirsty." Mi Cai said.

"Why are you so good to me?" As I said that, I drank a large mouthful of milk, but it was so hot that I couldn't swallow it.

Mi Cai was very surprised and asked, "I only made you a cup of milk. Does this count as being very good to you?"

That's right! Mi Cai only made me a cup of milk with a little effort. Why do I feel that she is very good to me?

After a long time, I realized that I have been lonely for too long. It has been too long since I have a woman by my side. Every time I drink more wine, I will only vomit on my own. After vomiting, I will vomit again. If I cannot vomit, I will sleep with my head covered. I've never seen a woman give me a cup of milk.

Finally drinking a cup of milk, Mi Cai washed the cup and poured me another cup of plain water. This time, she did not urge me to drink it. She placed it on the table beside the bed and said, "Leave this cup of water. If you are thirsty, drink it."

"Oh."

Mi Cai picked up her handbag and was about to leave when she suddenly thought of something and asked me, "Do you remember what you are going to do tomorrow?"

"Get up on time and go to work." I replied without thinking.

Mi Cai frowned. "That's not right."

"What is that?"

"You think about it yourself. I will leave first. " Mi Cai said as she walked out of the house and closed the door. She instantly disappeared from my sight but left the doubt to me.

I lit a cigarette and sat on the bed. After thinking for a long time, I didn't think of what else I had to do besides work tomorrow, so I simply snuffed out the cigarette. I covered myself with the blanket and fell asleep again. Since Mi Cai was talking about tomorrow's matter... Then he would think about it tomorrow...

...

The next day, when I woke up, Luo Ben was still asleep. The nature of his work determined that he had to live the night and day in reverse. Yesterday, he seemed to have only come back in the morning.

After a simple wash up, he found a bowl of noodles in a box at the corner of the wall. He soaked it and ate it as breakfast. Then, he hurriedly went downstairs and waited for the company bus.

Luo Ben's residence was rather remote, and the bus had been wandering on the road. Thus, during the hour on the road, I kept thinking about what Mi Cai had reminded me when she left yesterday.

Finally, I woke up in the morning and remembered that Mi Cai had cooperated with me to put on an act last night. Of course, she wouldn't help me for no reason. There must be some sort of exchange between us. Following this train of thought, everything suddenly became clear. Today, I have to buy some insect powder for her and sprinkle it in the bathroom.

I was afraid that I would forget, so I set up a schedule on my phone to give a reminder. Only then did I feel safe.

After arriving at the company, before I could make myself a cup of tea, I was summoned by the manager of planning department, Chen Jingming.

When I arrived at Chen Jingming's office, he seemed to be in a good mood. He asked me to sit down.

"Manager, you summoned me so early in the morning. Did I screw up something again?" I asked subconsciously. In the past two years, Chen Jingming had come to find me to criticize me.

Chen Jingming smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. This time, there is an important task for you."

"What task?"

"This time, GUCC has set up a cabinet in our department store, allowing our Baoli Department Store to officially step into the ranks of the top department stores. The company wants to use this opportunity to start a comprehensive marketing campaign. We want to attract more international first-tier brands to cooperate with our department stores. "

"Manager, you mean that I will be responsible for the planning of this event?" I asked in shock.

Chen Jingming nodded and said seriously, "That's right. This is a rare opportunity for you. You know, the competition in the traditional retail industry is intense now, and it has been greatly impacted by online shopping all these years. The living environment is very bad, and we are going to take the high-end route. Brand management is the foundation of our Baoli Department Store's survival in this industry. We must try our best to attract as many international first-tier brands in the market as possible to strengthen the brand advantage of Baoli Department Store. Therefore, this activity is the embodiment of the core value of our company. The higher-ups are very concerned about this. I hope you can shoulder this heavy responsibility."

"Manager, it's not like you don't know how much I weigh. You should leave this huge event to Faang Yuan."

"Zhao Yang, opportunities are not often available. It's already certain that Faang Yuan will be the deputy manager of planning department. Because he had made enough contributions to planning department for the company, others did not gossip about him. What about you, Zhao Yang? I want to promote you to be the team leader of the proposal team. I'm afraid other people will also have gossips. Do you understand what I mean?"

Of course I understand what Chen Jingming means. He wants to make use of this event to make me the team leader of the proposal team. This is indeed a rare opportunity for me to encounter in a few years.

I was silent for a while before I finally asked," When will the preparations for this event begin? "

"The moment the GUCC and our department store's entry contract is signed, the preparations will begin. Oh, right. The GUCC is preparing to shoot the promotional poster for the opening on the 15th of this month. You and the 2D model will confirm if there is an opening date. This matter must not be made a mistake, understand? "Chen Jingming's expression became more and more serious as he spoke.

"Understood. I will call her to confirm right away."

Chen Jingming nodded and said, "Take good advantage of this opportunity. This is not something that everyone is lucky to encounter."

"Thank you for the opportunity, manager." I sincerely said.

After coming out of Chen Jingming's office, I immediately called Le Yao. I told her the date of the poster and she confirmed that there was no problem. My hanging heart finally settled down. I really should do something for my own life. Thus, I must firmly grasp this opportunity!

This is the first time after two years of not wanting to advance, I yearn for improvement and hope for a qualitative change in my life.

...

After a busy day, it was already seven o'clock when he came back to his senses. The various lights on the streets began to brighten the night sky of the city.

Sitting on the swaying public bus, his mind was filled with thoughts of the activities and marketing that were about to be prepared. Chen Jingming was right. This opportunity is a once in a lifetime opportunity for me. I can't be careless at all.

After a long time, the car was still swaying on the road. I took out my phone from my pocket to look at the time, only to find that the phone had automatically turned off because it had run out of battery.

I looked up at the electronic clock on the bus. It was already 8: 30 at night.

8: 30! I suddenly remembered that after work today, I still had to go and buy insect repellent powder for Mi Cai to help her deal with those annoying cockroaches!

I remember in the morning, I was afraid that I would forget, so I specially set up a schedule to give a reminder on my phone, but my phone coincidentally ran out of battery. This kind of coincidence is enough to ruin my character, making Mi Cai completely hate me.
