think love

After arriving at the company the next day, the first thing Lu Pengcheng did was to ask someone to find out the data of Fang Bining's current company.

The people who were sent to do this task quickly returned with the data.

The data shows that the other party is just a small company with more than a dozen employees. It has only been in business for two years. It has no backstage background or strong capital. Guangyan was about the same back then.

Lu Pengcheng put down the data and pinched the bridge of his nose in an attempt to dispel some sleepiness.

Yesterday, I ran into Fang Bining by chance at the draft competition, and then I did some disrespectful things in the elevator, and Yolanda said such things in the car. At night, he lay on the bed, tossing and turning.

Lu Pengcheng has never felt like he is in a huge sense of frustration.

"Pancho, you need to fail, so that people will learn to cherish."

This is what Tony once said to him. At that time, Lu Pengcheng felt that he would not let the word failure appear in his dictionary, so he did not take this sentence to heart, but now, although he admits that he has setbacks Feeling, but still will not admit their failure.

Now that Lulemall's proposal is imminent, he must find a way to win the new year's event plan.

After get off work, Lu Pengcheng drove the car downstairs to Fang Bining's company and waited there.

He believed that Fang Bining would not leave the company so early. Sure enough, around nine o'clock, he saw Fang Bining and someone who looked like his colleague walking out of the business building. Just like that day, the two separated at the door.

Lu Pengcheng turned on the car lights to attract Fang Bining's attention. Fang Bining turned around and recognized his car, but did not walk towards him.

If it was before, Lu Pengcheng would never do such a thing. Fang Bining had Fang Bining's conceit, and similarly, Lu Pengcheng also had times when he couldn't let go of his airs.

But at this moment, during the few months that Fang Bining has been away, Lu Pengcheng feels that he still needs Fang Bining, so he wants to have a peaceful talk with Fang Bining, and explain everything that has happened and may appear. Let's talk about all the problems in front of us once, so that there may be a possibility to start again, and some people must bow their heads first.

Lu Pengcheng slowly slid the car to Fang Bining's side and lowered the window.

"boarding."

Fang Bining put his hands in his coat pockets, half of his face was buried in the camel scarf, leaving only a pair of eyes fixed on Lu Pengcheng.Lu Pengcheng felt a little guilty when he saw him, but he still insisted.

"Get in the car, I want to talk to you."

Fang Bining blinked lightly twice, then stretched out his hand to open the door of the passenger seat, and sat in.

The air conditioner in the car was turned on to be warmer, so Fang Bining took off the scarf around his neck, the same way as last time, he looked sideways out of the car window, without saying a word.

Although the atmosphere between the two was not good, Lu Pengcheng still felt heavy in his heart.

While waiting for the red light, he glanced back at the young man's delicate silhouette.Then he said, "I was at the elevator yesterday, I'm so sorry."

Fang Bining turned his head and met his gaze, but his face was expressionless, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, making it impossible to guess his thoughts.

They just stared at each other for a few seconds, the green light ahead turned on, Lu Pengcheng turned his head and continued driving, he heard Fang Bining asking himself.

"Did you say that on purpose today...?"

The car was speeding on the road, and the sycamore trees on both sides that had lost all their leaves and only left bare branches receded quickly.

Lu Pengcheng didn't make a sound, and drove the car into the western restaurant that he had visited with Fang Bining before, which he liked very much.

After parking the car in the underground parking lot, he turned off the engine and loosened his seat belt, then turned to Fang Bining.

"Maybe there are many other things I want to say..."

After finishing speaking, he opened the door of the car and was about to get out of the car, but Fang Bining sat there motionless. Lu Pengcheng stepped out with one foot, noticed Fang Bining's strangeness, and showed a puzzled expression.

"You don't like this restaurant?"

The underground parking lot was very dark, although Fang Bining looked at Lu Pengcheng, but Lu Pengcheng couldn't make out the expression on his face, only heard him say: "Lu Pengcheng, do you still remember what I said... ... "If you're not in this circle, it's best not to get too close to me"?"

Lu Pengcheng was taken aback, of course he remembered, but at that time he couldn't control himself, and the result of getting along with him was not satisfactory, and now it seems that there is indeed a tendency to repeat the same mistakes.However, Lu Pengcheng knew that there were some things that were different from last time.

"Then just as the former boss, if you invite you to have dinner together, you won't even give me this face?"

Hearing this, Fang Bining was silent for a few seconds, then opened the door and got out of the car.

According to Lu Pengcheng's habit, the waiter took them to the seat by the window where he had been sitting.

It's not a weekend, there are very few people in the store, and the violinist plays soft and soothing music, which makes people relax slightly from the tense nerves.

During the meal, Lu Pengcheng talked about some company matters intentionally or unintentionally, and then asked Fang Bining about his future plans in a circumstantial manner.Fang Bining silently ate the food on the plate in front of him, stopped the knife and fork when Lu Pengcheng asked him, and answered simply.

The atmosphere lingering between the two was polite and unfamiliar, Lu Pengcheng felt as if he was having dinner with a client, but even as a client, there are people who are humorous and good at talking, and can create a good atmosphere, but Fang Bining seems to be around him deliberately Build invisible barriers, keep a distance, and don't want people to get close.

After eating, Lu Pengcheng sent Fang Bining back. After arriving at the destination, watching Fang Bining get off the car and walk to the community, Lu Pengcheng still didn't say what he was going to say.

He originally wanted to ask Fang Bining if he would like to return to Guangyan, but seeing Fang Bining's attitude, Lu Pengcheng couldn't help but feel a little guilty, as if he approached Fang Bining to take advantage of him.

Then I thought about it, didn't I just want Fang Bining to come back to me, return to Guangyan and immediately take over Lulemall's new proposal, so I came here to find him?Compared with whether Fang Bining will start over with himself, it seems that Fang Bi would rather return to Guangyan or not is more important.

Lu Pengcheng found that as long as Fang Bining is involved in emotional issues, the company and work will inevitably be involved. He can hardly tell how important Fang Bining is to him, whether it is a personal relationship or a company project.

But no matter what, I hope that Fang Bining can come back, which is what he wants to do now.

After that, Lu Pengcheng met Fang Bining a few more times, sometimes they went to have dinner, and sometimes they sent him back without doing anything.Compared with the previous few meetings, the atmosphere between the two is much better now.When talking about work matters with Fang Bining, he will not hesitate to put forward some of his own views and opinions.

Lu Pengcheng also went to Fang Bining's on-site activities in that company, but he could only say that Fang Bining's talents could not be fully utilized because the hardware conditions were not up to date.

Regarding this, Lu Pengcheng expressed his thoughts to Fang Bining, but Fang Bining just smiled and said that the company's current operating conditions are not good, so he can only use the lowest cost to meet the customer's needs.

Fang Bining didn't seem to have any dissatisfaction with the company he was working for now, while Lu Pengcheng didn't move on the surface, but secretly became anxious in his heart. There was only less than a week left before Lulemall's proposal for the new year's event.

At this time, the traditional New Year was just around the corner, and major companies began to prepare for their own annual meetings. In addition, Lu Pengcheng also had to participate in the reward meeting held by the group or client company where his company was located.

Having been in this business for so many years, Lu Pengcheng is already comfortable attending such banquets, and he even sees it as an opportunity to develop new customers.

At this time, it is also the time for Lu Pengcheng to review his actions in the past year, review the new cases he has taken over this year, and then think about his shortcomings and what he needs to do in the new year.

Sizing up the situation is one of the conditions that a decision maker must meet.

At the reward meeting held by Lulemall, Lulemall introduced Guangyan to other cooperative brands, which made Lu Pengcheng look better.

Although the effects of Fang Bining's several activities after leaving were not particularly satisfactory to them, the past results are still there, and the international women's clothing brand that borrowed the venue of Lulemall to hold two catwalk shows is also very supportive of Guangyan's planning. Highly rated.

While Lu Pengcheng was enjoying the brilliance of glory, on the other hand, the pressure in his heart was so heavy that he felt suffocated.

If the new year's Lulemall event is not won, the brilliance that Guangyan has built up in the past year will turn into foam on the sea and eventually disappear without a trace.

During the banquet, Lu Pengcheng went outside the banquet hall and called Fang Bining. While waiting for the call to be answered, Lu Pengcheng felt his nervous hands tremble a little.

After a few "beeps" on the other end of the phone, Fang Bining's voice came.

"Pancho, what's the matter?"

The overly calm tone made Lu Pengcheng speechless for a while. He took a deep breath, and then said, "Fang Bining, I'm at the Lulemall appreciation meeting right now."

"yes?"

It sounded like it had nothing to do with him.

"Lulemall's evaluation of the light... the activities you participated in is very good. Lulemall also hopes that we can take over this year's annual activities..."

Lu Pengcheng originally wanted to say Guangyan, but changed his words when the words came to his lips.

There was no answer on the phone for a moment, only the sound of light breathing came over. Lu Pengcheng knew that Fang Bining hadn't left the phone. After a while, Fang Bining's voice rang.

"Pancho, you also said that I participated in the activities, and I was not the original planner of the activities. At this moment, shouldn't you thank the subordinates who have racked their brains for you?"

"I..." Lu Pengcheng was told that he didn't know how to refute, so he hesitated for a while before revealing his original intention of calling him.

"Fang Bining, actually I called you to ask you...would you like to come back? Lulemall has a share of your hard work, are you willing to give it up like this? After you left from Guangyan, you have been In the industry of shopping malls, it means that you are interested in this industry. No matter what happened to us in the past, Guangyan still needs you..."

Lu Pengcheng said all the things he hadn't said after going around for several times in one breath, and there was no sound on the other end of the phone, making him almost think he was facing an empty wall.

Feeling that his palms were sweating slightly, Lu Pengcheng walked along the corridor to the balcony. The place where Lulemall held this banquet was in a villa of the last century, with European architectural style and old furniture. Presents an understated luxury.

Lu Pengcheng leaned against the railing of the balcony to the north, waiting for Fang Bining's answer, but Fang Bining kept silent. Lu Pengcheng thought Fang Bining was hesitating, and was about to persuade him a few more words, but he just yelled " Fang Bining" was interrupted.

"Pancho, I will participate in the Lulamall proposal next week..."

Lu Pengcheng felt his heart skip a beat.

"However, I will go as the chief creative officer of my current company."

The atmosphere on the street is full of New Year's Eve, Guangyan's door glass is also pasted with the word "Fu", and there are decorated firecrackers and lanterns hanging here at the front desk, which is full of joy.But those who walked into the company in the past few days would feel the low pressure overflowing from the director's office, covering the entire office.

Lu Pengcheng also knew that his face was ugly enough these two days, but the pressure on his shoulders was too great, and he really couldn't show a relaxed look.

Not only did Fang Bining not accept his invitation to come back to Guangyan, but he wanted to participate in Lulemall's proposal with his company.

Although the ability and qualifications of the other company are definitely several grades lower than Guangyan, but it is different with Fang Bining... The unknown emotions that surged up at the draft competition site that day came back again.

There was a knock on the office door, and it was Tony who came in, and he put a stack of things in front of Lu Pengcheng.

"This is the latest revised version. Take a look. If there is no problem, let's make it like this."

Lu Pengcheng took the stack of typed drafts, turned two pages and put them down, frowning, and said in an unhappy tone, "Tony, do you really think this kind of thing can be sold? You know, Fang Bining The company I work for now will also participate in the pitch.”

Tony pursed the corner of his mouth, then lowered his shoulders, "Pancho, why didn't you finish it? It's the hard work of Andy and the others who haven't had much rest day and night these days. How can you deny it without finishing it?" already?"

Lu Pengcheng pushed the manuscript back to Tony.

"You don't need to look at it to know it. It's the same thing after turning it over and over again, but what I need is innovation, the appeal, the kind of appeal that can make thousands of people join in!" Lu Pengcheng said, excited Get up, "Let them change it again."

"Pancho!" Tony's voice suddenly became severe, "Have you had enough trouble? You really don't look like a decision-maker now. Lu Pengcheng in the past would never show such an anxious and unconfident mood."

This sentence seemed to hit Lu Pengcheng's sore spot. He squirmed his lips and swallowed what he wanted to say, then put aside the pen in his hand and tapped it on the desk.

Tony sat down across a desk in front of him, and then pushed the stack of typed drafts on the desk to Lu Pengcheng.

"To be honest, I'm still a little happy to see you like this, because it feels like we're back when we first met. At that time, Pancho was just a kid who just stepped into society. You know all the shortcomings that newcomers should have. Yes, but you don’t have any advantages to promote in the workplace.”

Speaking of this, Lu Pengcheng turned his head and glared at him, so the atmosphere eased up, and Tony smiled lightly.

"Then I watched you grow up at an astonishing speed. Whether it is action or determination, you stand out among the same batch of newcomers, even surpassing me and running ahead of me."

"Although I will not be reconciled, maybe you are born with this material, but I also see that you are becoming more rigorous and self-disciplined day by day, and more silent and rigid day by day. You are quickly becoming a decision maker who can lead the team to do things efficiently. , you also lost a lot..."

Lu Pengcheng stopped tapping the desk with the pen in his hand.

Tony continued: "I know that Aning is very good, and I can also see that you and Aning had an unusual relationship. Although you and Aning pretended nothing happened, there is still a gap between your eyes and your words. The atmosphere doesn't lie."

Tony adjusted his glasses with his hand.

"But in this world, people like Aning are always hard to come by. You also said that Guangyan would continue to live without Aning, but now? You seem to be without Aning, The whole world is messed up and it looks like they are all dead."

"Pancho, Aning is very important to you, and maybe it is also important to Guangyan, but don't be blinded and ignore the efforts of other people. Although they don't have the talent of Aning, they still work hard."

After Tony finished speaking, he stood up and pointed to the stack of papers on the table with his chin.

"I put things here. I didn't force you to read them, but as Guangyan's operations director, you must read them, because this is the hard work and hard work of your employees."

Lu Pengcheng just looked at him and didn't make a sound. Tony retreated to the door consciously, stopped before reaching out to open the door, and pointed at Lu Pengcheng with his index finger.

"Pancho, as a colleague and friend who has worked with you for nearly ten years, I solemnly tell you that I don't mind if you are gay, but if you are always single, I will feel very insecure." Finally, I still don't forget She made a gesture of hugging her chest and twisting her waist that made goosebumps fall.

Lu Pengcheng almost didn't use the notepad on the table to take a picture, but after the office door was closed, the previously suppressed emotions seemed to ease a lot. He took the stack of typed drafts on the table and began to read carefully page by page up.

I have to say that Andy and Tony's subordinates really put a lot of effort into their plans, and I got into a dead end after being tangled and entangled before, so I always felt that Andy and the others did not do well.But in other words, Andy is a member of Guangyan, he has always felt that his own abilities are relatively good in the same industry, and he has never been so unconfident.

Could it be that it was also because of Fang Bining.

Lu Pengcheng still couldn't understand why he was so easily influenced by Fang Bining, and even his life tended to be changed by him.

And every time he realizes this, he will feel resistance and anxiety.

After all, he has always been a person who has absolute control over all aspects of himself, and the unstable factors in Fang Bining are like factors floating in the air, he cannot see their trajectory, and cannot guess their activities The law is new to him, but he has not yet fully prepared for the many problems he will face after the novelty.

At night, Lu Pengcheng drove the car downstairs to Fang Bining's company again, but he turned off the lights and did not intend to let Fang Bining see him.

After a while, I saw Fang Bining walking out of the business building with a lot of things in his arms, stood on the street looking around for a long time, and finally fell on Lu Pengcheng, and then he hugged the Heaping up things and walking towards Lu Pengcheng, with such a menacing look, Lu Pengcheng almost thought he was holding some kind of murder weapon in his hand.

Fang Bining walked to his car, knocked on the window, and signaled Lu Pengcheng to put down the window, and Lu Pengcheng obediently obeyed.

Fang Bining lowered his waist, "I can't hail a taxi, can you take me somewhere?"

Lu Pengcheng nodded in agreement without thinking too much.

It wasn't until Fang Bining got into the car that he saw clearly that the pile of things Fang Bining was holding in his hands were props for the event, and it was obvious that he wanted to send props there.

For a moment, Lu Pengcheng felt that he was so stupid, who would help his competitors to do activities like him?

Send Fang Bining to the place he is going to, it looks like a bar, Lu Pengcheng can't think of any company that would put the event in such a place, alcohol?

Fang Bining got out of the car with his things in his arms, then lowered his body and stuck his head into the car and asked Lu Pengcheng, "Do you want to come together?"

Lu Pengcheng was a little hesitant, and heard Fang Bining say again: "It's okay, it's just a private party for the boss's friend."

So Lu Pengcheng followed Fang Bining into the bar by mistake.

Obviously it was already late when they arrived, and the inside was already noisy and crowded. When Lu Pengcheng walked to the door, he suddenly remembered that his suit and leather shoes were not suitable for this kind of occasion, and thought, what if he met Fang Bining? If the boss can't make it right, he will drag him out and beat him up.

Fang Bining looked back with some doubts, as if seeing Lu Pengcheng's hesitation, he took out a beautifully decorated mask from the pile of things in his arms, and handed it to Lu Pengcheng along with a tuxedo.

"Masquerade, no one will recognize you as Guangyan's boss, this is my costume, I will lend it to you."

Lu Pengcheng looked at the things in his hands, and no longer shied away, smashed the clothes and stored them at the bar, then put on a mask and followed Fang Bining into the crowd of people dressed in various roles.
