Zhengyangmen: I refuse to be a bootlicker, Su Meng panicked

Han Chunming has a lot of fine wines collected in the wine cellar at home. He thought that he would take two more bottles with him when he left, and that would be enough.

At the literary company, Professor Jin was seen early on.

Professor Jin came here deliberately to meet with President He to discuss cooperation.

Professor Jin naturally knew that there was something wrong with doing this, but for the sake of his own personal development, he had no choice but to lower his own status.

President He was still a little surprised to see Professor Jin coming.

"Why didn't you tell me in advance that Professor Jin was coming?" President He said this somewhat passively.

The assistant was also a little helpless at this moment, as he was not aware of this in advance.

"Professor Jin came here directly without an appointment. I just found out about it and brought him into the conference room first," the assistant explained.

The assistant thought that Professor Jin's identity was quite special, so it would be difficult to reject him directly.

Okay, okay, I got it. Just tell him I’m in a meeting and then go find him when you’re done.” President He responded.

As soon as President He finished speaking, his assistant went out to relay his message.

Although President He has not met Professor Jin yet, the other party's intentions are very clear.

He remembered what Han Chunming had said to him yesterday, that he could cooperate with Professor Jin, but the time involved was a big factor.

Professor Jin needs time to polish himself and get rid of these "bad habits".

After a while, President He decided to inform Han Chunming of the news.

Han Chunming was driving when he heard his cell phone ringing. He put on his headphones and answered the call.

"Senior, what's wrong?" Han Chunming said.

When President He heard Han Chunming's voice, he quickly told Han Chunming what happened.

Han Chunming was not surprised by Professor Jin's visit.

"You should talk to Professor Jin first. Don't cooperate in the short term. Let's see what happens first." Han Chunming responded.

President He understood Han Chunming's idea, but Professor Jin's new literary works still needed to be published.

If other companies seize the initiative at this time, it will inevitably have an adverse impact on them.

After President He expressed his concerns, he handed the final decision-making power to Han Chunming.

Han Chunming initially wanted to obtain Professor Jin's copyright, but the current situation forced him to give up for the time being.

"There's nothing we can do about this. There's no rush. We can only wait and see what their attitude is. You can try to see what they say first," Han Chunming explained.

Han Chunming couldn't make any promises to the other party at the moment, so he could only say this for now.

"Okay, I understand, Mr. Han." President He responded.

After President He hung up the phone, he did not rush back to the reception room. Instead, he sorted out his thoughts in the office.

President He didn't walk out until he had sorted himself out.

President He stood outside the reception room and saw Professor Jin's anxious figure through the window.

President He pushed the door open and walked in. Professor Jin quickly stood up and greeted him.

You should know that before this, Professor Jin was disdainful of talking too much to President He, and he always had a condescending attitude every time they met.

President He couldn't help but sigh inwardly at the other party's actions.

If the other party had shown such an attitude early on, their cooperation would probably have been settled long ago.

"I'm sorry, President He, for disturbing you by coming to visit me." Professor Jin said politely.

President He smiled calmly and replied, "Oh, it's okay. I wonder what important matter has Professor Jin brought here?"

President He's attitude was gentle and elegant, which made Professor Jin feel ashamed.

Thinking back to my attitude towards President He, it’s hard to put into words…

Professor Jin was obviously lost in thought. President He looked at the changes in him but did not ask any questions.

Instead, he just waited silently for her to come to her senses.

"I'm really sorry. I was disrespectful when President He came to visit me before. I hope you don't mind." Professor Jin said slowly.

Professor Jin raised his head and looked at President He, his eyes full of regret...

Looking at Professor Jin's serious expression, President He smiled with relief.

"It's nothing. I don't take it to heart, and you don't have to care about it either." President He said with a smile.

The more President He acted as if he didn't care, the more Professor Jin felt ashamed.

In fact, it is good that Professor Jin can have such feelings. It is much better than not knowing how rude his actions are.

"Thank you, President He." Professor Jin thanked him. Professor Jin hesitated many times and did not say why.

President He probably understood Professor Jin's intention, but since the other party never said it, he pretended to be unaware.

Professor Jin pursed his lips several times before finally speaking.

"Actually, I have something else to discuss with you. There were some misunderstandings when we talked about cooperation last time, so I want to give you a detailed explanation." Professor Jin said slowly.

Professor Jin knew that if his publication was published in other literary companies, it would probably not bring long-term benefits.

Only by cooperating with Han Chunming's company can he gain a permanent foothold.

After listening to what Professor Jin said and finding that it was consistent with his own judgment, President He also made detailed cooperation.

"We have resolved the misunderstanding and there is no unpleasantness now. As for cooperation, we still need to be cautious, so I'm afraid we have to look for another opportunity in the future." President He responded.

In the adult world, if you don't directly agree, it means you refuse. Professor Jin naturally understands this simple truth.

Professor Jin looked at President He's firm attitude and knew that this must be a decision that the company had already discussed.

Although the hope is slim, he still wants to try again.

"Could I trouble you to tell President Han again? You know the importance of this document of mine best. There are many companies that want to cooperate with me right now, but I have rejected most of them. I am just waiting for the opportunity to cooperate with you." President He spoke for himself.

President He found Professor Jin's words a little ridiculous.

If it were really as Professor Jin said, things probably wouldn't have developed to the current situation.

"I am aware of Professor Jin's status in the literary world, and I also understand the importance of the publications he has published. However, when we select partners, we not only look at their business capabilities, but also their principles in doing things," President He responded.

President He’s words were very clear. The reason why they were unwilling to cooperate again this time was nothing more than the latter reason.

When Professor Jin heard President He speaking so directly about him, he felt very dissatisfied.

He believed that even if he showed some dissatisfaction with others, it was in line with his principles.

"I understand everything you've said, and there's definitely nothing wrong with my character. The only thing is that there's still a misunderstanding between us that hasn't been resolved." Professor Jin continued to argue for himself.

Professor Jin tried to persuade President He, but after saying a lot of things, he found that the other party did not change his attitude.

Seeing President He's current attitude, Professor Jin had to gradually stop talking.

President He noticed that Professor Jin's voice had gradually stopped, so he quickly replied with a smile, "I will definitely keep this matter in mind. We will contact each other when the opportunity arises."

Professor Jin understood the other party's intention. What he said was nothing more than an order to leave.

"Okay." Professor Jin stood up and straightened his suit, then replied with a smile.

Looking at Professor Jin's leaving back, President He suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

President He picked up his phone and was about to reply to Han Chunming, but then he thought again and felt that it was inappropriate.

"Forget it, forget it. Let's talk about it another day. Don't waste Mr. Han's time." President He muttered to himself.

After a while, President He returned to his office and started to get busy.

Han Chunming had returned home. "Where are the things you took?" Han's mother came forward and asked. As soon as Han Chunming came back, she immediately went forward to greet him.

When I saw that the other party came back empty-handed, I thought something bad had happened.

"I left them all in the car and didn't take them out." Han Chunming responded. When Han's mother heard what was going on, she didn't say anything more.

Han Chunming could clearly feel that the atmosphere at home was a little tense.

Han Chunming turned around and said with a smile: "Is there something wrong?"

After Han Chunming finished speaking, Han's mother and father turned their heads and looked at each other tacitly, and couldn't help laughing.

"What?" Han's mother asked back. Han Chunming saw this, shook his head and said nothing more.

So Han Chunming walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down.

"Why are you talking so weirdly?" Han's mother asked Han's father. Han's father was suddenly startled and replied, "How should I know?"

Han's mother rolled her eyes at Han's father, then walked over and sat down next to Han Chunming.

"You look unhappy?" Han's mother asked. Han Chunming turned his head to look at her, then turned back.

"No, why would I be unhappy? You're worrying too much, Mom." Han Chunming responded with a smile.

Han's mother looked at Han Chunming carefully and always felt that there was something wrong with him. Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, she had no choice.

"Is Xiaoguan going to work today? If not, can he have lunch with us at noon?" Han's mother asked tentatively.

Han Chunming didn't have time to think about this. After hearing his mother's reminder, he picked up his phone and sent a WeChat message to Guan Xiaoguan.

Guan Xiaoguan was reading a book when he heard his cell phone ringing. He thought it was nothing important, so he didn't check it out.

It was not until I had sat on the stool for too long and felt some discomfort in my waist that I started to stand up.

Guan Xiaoguan picked up the phone and saw that the message was sent by Han Chunming, so he quickly clicked to check it.

"Eat?" Guan Xiaoguan murmured in surprise. Guan Xiaoguan called Han Chunming back. "Hello." Guan Xiaoguan said.
