On this day, Qu Zhi had overslept or had been woken up by a phone call.
When he picked up the phone, Qu Zhi was awake, but her voice was still asleep. “Who is this?”
“It’s me, Manager. The factory is calling. It was the receptionist’s voice.” His voice was sweet and sounded nice, even over the phone.
“Oh, what did he say?” Qu Zhi rubbed her eyes.
She didn’t care what the other party said. Lawyer Feng was confident, and so was she.
“They’ve apologized,” the receptionist tried to hold back her laughter, her voice trembling. “They told me to tell you to return the call when you come to the company.”
Qu Zhi knew that small factories had no confidence to begin with and could not afford to be tormented.
Now that he had received the summons, he knew the female manager was not to be trifled with. Didn’t his tone become polite?
“Oh, I’ll be right back.” Qu Zhi didn’t want to get up. The air-conditioning at home was too comfortable, and Sisi was sleeping soundly in her arms.
She wished that she could spend more time like this. Fortunately, it was Saturday the next day, so she could sleep as long as she wanted. In the afternoon, she would go shopping with Sister Song and Lin He. It wouldn’t be too comfortable.
Now that she was in a good mood, she put on a serious look and carefully matched her clothes. She even put on perfume. When she arrived at the company, the front desk staff did not recognize her.
“Miss, what kind of service would you like to ask? We have a gift box here…” The receptionist’s voice was sweet, and her smile was energetic.
“Good job.” Qu Zhi smiled and patted her.
The receptionist finally recognized her boss. She was surprised and happy. “Manager Wu, you look so good today. I couldn’t recognize you!” She was beautiful and capable. The receptionist really treated her as an idol.
Qu Zhi was busy for a while before she suddenly remembered the phone call. She didn’t want to reply at first, but she felt it would be rude, so she called the silk scarf factory.
“Manager Qu, is that you?” When the leader picked up the phone, he lowered his voice and said, “Hello, hello.”
“Is there a problem?” Qu Zhi had no interest in listening to his polite words. Her time was precious.
“That… We’ve received the summons.” The other party’s voice became softer. “We’re really, really sorry…”
“Speak properly.” One set after another. They looked polite, but they were actually a waste of time.
“We’ve let you down. This summons is not good for our factory, you know that, right?” The other party was obviously a little anxious. “We did leak your blueprint last time, but we made your scarf seriously. No one else can make our style and quality!”
“Even so, you still found people to force us. We’re so anxious that we just came to your company and wanted a good talk. We didn’t expect your staff to be so rude. Didn’t they cause trouble?”
On the surface, he was calmly and humbly reasoning with her, but in reality, he was being sarcastic, giving Qu Zhi a headache.
“What else do you want to say?” From his tone, it was clear this was not something could be discussed. Qu Zhi had made up her mind.
“Can you drop this case?” the other party was still daydreaming. “We’ll still pay the money. We can still pay more.”
“Impossible.” Even Qu Zhi laughed at him. The other party did not seem to understand what she was saying at all. He was talking to himself, and other people’s opinions were not important.
“It is easy to negotiate the compensation. Didn’t you want us to pay twenty thousand? I’ll pay forty thousand!” The other party had obviously lost his cool and had even forgotten to use honorifics.
“I don’t care,” Qu Zhi wanted to hang up.
“You crazy woman!” The leader started to get hysterical. “What good will you get from messing with us? Huh?”
Qu Zhi didn’t even want to hear it. She said lazily, “Who would like to mess with trash like you?” With such momentum, where else could he use it?
She hung up the phone with a “bang” and was calm and relaxed.
Lin He seemed to have heard something. “Why is his voice so loud? Is he scolding someone?”
“He is showing his true colors as he apologizes.” Qu Zhi counted today’s list expressionlessly. They could have a small meeting later.
However, Lin He took it in. Qu Zhi must have angered the other party so much that she laughed until tears came out.
