889: Chapter 889 Whatever is said cos 889: Chapter 889 Whatever is said cos Waking up in the morning, Lu Yi yawned, feeling utterly disheartened at the thought of the backlog of work yet to be done, completely unable to muster any enthusiasm.
After brushing his teeth and washing his face, getting dressed, Lu Yi took his bag and left the house, jogging all the way to the bus station.
But before he could get there, he saw the bus he was supposed to take had already pulled in at the stop.
“Wait, wait for ,” Lu Yi shouted, quickening his pace while stuffing breakfast into his mouth at the sa ti.
He really would’ve missed it, but for so unknown reason, the bus stayed at the stop for quite a while, so Lu Yi, pleasantly surprised, continued to sprint toward it, unable to help himself from saying, “Could this be for ?
No way!
Maybe it’s a breakdown.”
Just as Lu Yi caught up with it, he saw many passengers disembarking.
Stunned, Lu Yi realized he had inadvertently predicted right; there was indeed a breakdown, disabling the bus from moving, so passengers had no choice but to wait for the next one.
Unable to help himself, Lu Yi let out a wry laugh, because this ant squeezing two buses’ worth of people into one, and it was the peak hour for work.
With no other option, Lu Yi had to wait for the next bus, grumblingly saying, “Co on, my luck can’t be this bad, right?
The next one better co quickly and not get stuck in traffic.”
Twenty minutes later, there was no sign of the next bus, and as Lu Yi looked at the long line of cars on the road, he knew he had jinxed it again; there was a traffic jam.
“Goddamnit, this damned mouth of mine.” Lu Yi almost slapped himself; now he had no choice but to run a few more blocks to catch another bus.
As they say, even the unluckiest person has their turn of fortune, and Lu Yi had not run far when he saw Su Hui’s car parked on the side of the road.
It turned out Su Hui was on her way to work but had co upon a task, so she didn’t go to the office and headed straight to the scene instead.
After handling the matter, Su Hui bought breakfast, preparing to enjoy it, but then she saw Lu Yi running towards her ecstatically.
“Sister Su, thank goodness, seeing you is like seeing a dear relative, I’m so happy.
I’m in a rush to get to work, so please, I’m begging you,” Lu Yi put on a pitiful act, while Su Hui swallowed a mouthful of breakfast and nodded her head, agreeing.
“Thank you!
Sister Su!” Lu Yi was overjoyed and imdiately jumped into the passenger seat.
Su Hui couldn’t help but chuckle then started the car and headed towards the bank where Lu Yi worked.
“How’s it going, selling the financial products and credit cards?
t any big clients recently?
Introduce one to your sister,” Su Hui initiated a conversation, teasing Lu Yi on purpose.
Lu Yi, awkwardly scratching his head, admitted things were not going very well, “The performance pressure has been imnse lately.
I’m still several deals short for my quota.
How about this, Sister Su, since we ran into each other and you’re driving to the bank, why not help by purchasing so of our products?”
“What’s that supposed to an?
I spend my gas to drive you there, and then I have to spend extra money to buy sothing?
Wouldn’t I be at a loss?” Su Hui had a perplexed look, but Lu Yi imdiately pulled out a brochure, “No loss, no loss, Sister Su, just listen to .
Our product is very user-friendly, specially designed for young urban won like you.
Only outstanding won like you can enjoy my exclusive services.”
After hearing this, Su Hui gave Lu Yi a disdainful look, “Can I call you ‘big brother’?
You’ve just entered society and you’ve already beco like this.
To et your performance targets, would you say anything shaless?”
“Sister Su, don’t say that, I’m sincerely recomnding this,” Lu Yi eagerly retorted, but Su Hui remained skeptical, “Sincerely recomnding?
Do you even have a conscience left, and if you do, doesn’t it hurt?”
“Alright, alright, I’ll stop talking,” Lu Yi gave up, staring out of the car window with a sigh.
Su Hui consoled him, “Okay, Lu Yi, we’re friends.
Your products are good, but I really don’t need them.
You could ask Gu Fan or even Du Jun.”
Lu Yi shook his head, “I don’t sell to people I know, I don’t mix business with personal relationships.
I understand sotis friends buy my products not because they really like them, but just to give my business a boost.
So each ti I do a deal with friends, it’s like owing them a favor, and a favor always has to be repaid.”
Listening to him, Su Hui looked confused, “That sounds reasonable, so why did you still recomnd it to ?”
“Because I felt that this product and you, Sister Su, are particularly fated.
I just started selling this product, and we seldom see each other in the morning.
I think it’s a sign from the heavens, telling to sell this product to you,” Lu Yi declared righteously as if it were all ant to be.
Not buying it, Su Hui retorted, “I’m curious, you don’t usually take this route to work, do you?
How could we have t?”
Lu Yi explained, “That’s because the bus I usually take from my doorstep broke down, and another got stuck in traffic, so I decided to walk a few more streets to take another bus.
I didn’t expect to bump into you, Sister Su, so thank the heavens for your help.
I think I won’t be late now unless your car also breaks down.”
The mont Lu Yi finished his sentence, Su Hui noticed sothing was wrong with her car – it really broke down.
Left fuming, Su Hui pounded on Lu Yi, cursing as she struck, “You doomsayer!
You son of a…
Why would you say sothing like that!”
Lu Yi held his bag high, protecting his head, taking the beating and crying out, “If you had just talked to about the product, maybe I wouldn’t have said anything else, so you’re also responsible, Sister Su.”
“What do you an?
Is this how you pass the bla?” Su Hui, livid, continued her thrashing.
Lu Yi pleaded, “Please, Sister Su, don’t hit the face; I have to go to work, I have to et clients.”
“Fine, I’ll spare you,” Su Hui finished venting her anger, then tried the car again, and to her surprise, it started working.
It was really baffling – one mont it was broken, the next it was fine.
Afterward, Su Hui drove Lu Yi to the front of the bank where he worked and told him to get out quickly.
She feared that staying a mont longer with him might bring misfortune as soon as he opened his mouth.
Under the threatening gaze of Su Hui, Lu Yi imdiately clamd up and got out of the car, fearing he would be kicked out if he lingered.
“Work hard, and if you can’t et your quota by the end of the month, co to ,” said Su Hui, and without even a goodbye, she drove off, afraid that if she stayed any longer, and Lu Yi said anything, her car might not start again.
“Thanks, Sister Su, be careful of traffic jams on the road,” Lu Yi called out loudly, almost causing Su Hui to use the steering wheel to hit him.
