CHAPTER 182
Xia Xinyi was so excited because if the call from earlier. She was practically jumping from one foot to the other when she got into Bai Renxiang's office to feel her about the call.
"Assistant Xia Xinyi what are you so excited about?" Bai Renxiang asked as she dropped her pen on her desk..
"Okay. I just ended a call with a very big company," Xia Xinyi started.
"And..." Bai Renxiang dragged.
"And it turns out that they are interested in doing business with us. Also Chairman Jiang has agreed to it and directed them to us. Emperor's Enterprise wants to schedule a meeting with you so that we could discuss the business we will be doing together," Xia Xinyi shouted the last words in full joy.
Bai Renxiang's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. She could not believe her ears. Emperor's Enterprise? As in 'The Emperor's Enterprise'?
"Aaaaahhhhh!!!" Bai Renxiang jumped up from her chair and ran towards Xia Xinyi as she screamed. Xia Xinyi was shocked at first at the reaction of her boss. She had first expected to just get a bright smile, but this reaction left her tongue tied. It was only for a moment though, as she also join Bai Renxiang to scream out their feelings.
The two of them held hands as they jubilated together, jumping and uttering words to describe their disbelief and excitement too. Just as they were drowning in their excitement, the door opened with a loud bang shocking the screaming duo.
"Boss! What happened? Are you hurt? Who broke in? Where is the person?" Bai Renxiang's secretary asked as he looked around hurriedly. He seemed to be looking for the day's person who broke into his boss' office.
"Relax Jinhai. No one broke in and the boss is not hurt," Xia Xinyi said.
"Are you sure?" He looked at Xia Xinyi in doubt.
"Yes, I am sure. Besides if anyone dare break in while I am here, I will break their bones," Xia Xinyi said as she cracked her knuckles. She had earned a black belt in taekwondo and is very confident in her skills.
"Yeah right. A black belt earner that is so scared of insects," Jinhai mocked her.
"Hey! Being able to fight is different from being scared those creepy flying creatures. It does not mean I will not be scared of insects," Xia Xinyi pouted as she folded her arms and glared at the secretary. Bai Renxiang chuckled at their childish banter and shook her head. These two surely knows how to lighten the mood.
"Okay. That is enough, you two," Bai Renxiang stopped their arguments with a stern voice. She was back to being professional.
"Secretary Jinhai, nothing happened here. I appreciate your concern and alertness. We were just excited about a new business, that's all," Bai Renxiang said.
"Alright boss. But if something happens that Xia Xinyi can't handle, please do not hesitate to call me right away," he said.
"Stop being so full of yourself. I can handle things perfectly well. So shoo away from here," Xia Xinyi chased him as if he was a bird.
"Do not mind Xia Xinyi. Please go back to your desk. We will be fine," Bai Renxiang said.
"Yes boss," Jinhai left after sticking his tongue out, shaming Xia Xinyi.
After Secretary Jinhai left, Bai Renxiang smiled widely. She was still excited about the news. Then she went back to her chair and sat. Xia Xinyi chuckled and followed suite. She also took her seat.
"So what else did they say?" Bai Renxiang asked referring to Emperor's Enterprise.
"The assistant of the CEO said that they wanted to know when we will be ready to meet up so that the business and all can be discussed," Xia Xinyi replied.
"Okay... Then what did you say?" Bai Renxiang asked.
"I told him that I wanted to inform you before I call again to give an answer. So what do you think boss? When do you think it is convenient to meet them?"
"Hmm. This is a very rare opportunity that has been given to us. We have to grasp it quickly before we lost it," Bai Renxiang thought out loud. Then she looked at Xia Xinyi.
"I do not have any other thing to do today right?" She asked.
"Yes boss. You have been to all the meetings and have checked all the important files brought to you today. So your schedule is cleared," Xia Xinyi answered as she understood where Bai Renxiang was getting at.
"Well then that is great. We still have four hours till close of work. Call them and ask if we could meet today. If not, then they should pick a time and place," Bai Renxiang said and Xia Xinyi nodded before calling the number that called a few minutes ago. It rang once before that call got connected.
"Hello. Assistant Xia have you discussed with your boss?" Wang Tingxiao's voice rang out in the now silent room.
"Ye-yes, I have. Do you still have time today? My boss's schedule is totally free for the rest of the day," she said.
"Oh. Well my boss has a mee-"
"Clear all my schedule for today," Li Fengjin whispered immediately, stopping Wang Tingxiao from completing his statement. He was dumbfounded at what to do. His boss was also glaring daggers at him, warning him that if he dared pronounced the word meeting... something really bad will happen to him.
"We understand if you are not free. You can schedule another time and place and let us know," Xia Xinyi added to her earlier statement.
"Ah! No no no. My boss has a clear schedule for the rest of the day also," Wang Tingxiao immediately said.
"Oh!... Okay," Xia Xinyi dragged as she was surprised at his quick response just now.
"Let us meet at Jade Dragon's Restaurant to discuss the details," Wang Tingxiao read the words out from the piece of paper Li Fengjin wrote on.
