Chapter 404: Chapter 404-no reward for no gain
Chi yaoxi looked at the keys in her hand and then at the red Maserati’s reputation outside. She was at a loss for words.
It had been her childhood dream to drive a luxury car, a sports car, and go for a spin. But now, she felt that this dream was still far away.
“But ... This is too expensive! Also, Xiao Ye, you know that I’m a coward and I don’t know the way. I’m only halfway through the license plate exam ... Besides, I won’t take a reward without doing anything ...”
Chi Luoxi came up with all sorts of excuses.
She did like sports cars, but even though Xiao Ye had given it to her in such a way, Chi Yuexi still did not dare to accept it. She felt a little guilty.
Even if he had made a contribution, it wouldn’t be that big. Moreover, he had signed a contract to endorse Xiao Ye’s jewelry company. He would also receive an endorsement advertising fee and a year-end dividend if he invested in the company.
In other words, Xiao Ye’s company didn’t owe her anything. Hence, after much thought, Chi yaoxi still couldn’t accept this sports car.
Xiao Ye grew impatient,
“You’re overthinking it, Yue Xi! You were the one who invested and supported the company when it was at its most difficult time. Now that the original shares have risen by a lot, what’s a car to you?”
“Besides, all the cars these days are smart cars. You don’t need to know the way. It’s easy to get a license plate. I’ll accompany you to practice when I’m free. I guarantee you’ll get a license plate within a month!”
Chi Luoxi was about to explain more when Xiao Ye stood up and waved at her.”
“Don’t say anything else. Just do as I’m told. I haven’t gone to the office yet. There are many things waiting for me. I’ll be leaving first. You should rest well too. I’ll see you tomorrow when I’m free.”
Before Chi Luoxi could explain further, Xiao Ye had already left after he finished speaking.
......
Looking at the brand-new car keys in her hand, the corners of Chi Yuexi’s lips curled up in joy.
Alright then, what Xiao Ye said made sense. I’m his company’s hero, so I’ll just give him a car as a reward.
At the thought of this, Chi yaoxi fiddled with the keys and felt at ease again.
Before dinner in the afternoon, sister Ming bought some fruits that Chi yaoxi liked to eat. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw a brand-new and eye-catching red sports car and her mouth fell open in surprise.
Oh my God! This kind of sports car should cost tens of millions!
“Yue Xi, Yue Xi! I’m so envious, when will you let me have a taste of it! It’s really different to have a rich boyfriend. This car is at least tens of millions!”
Chi yaoxi was confused by sister Ming’s question. She blinked and thought for a moment before saying,”
“What? Don’t talk nonsense, Li Jingjing didn’t give you this car. ”
“Ah? It wasn’t from boss li? I didn’t hear you say you wanted to buy a car? Besides, would you spend so much money to buy such an expensive sports car? I don’t believe it. ”
Sister Ming looked at Chi Luoxi in confusion.””Still not admitting it? Tell me quickly, did he give it to you?”
“He really didn’t give it to me.” Chi leixi shook her head firmly.
Sister Ming frowned slightly and asked in confusion,”
“It’s not President li? Who else could it be? Who gave you such an expensive car? Besides, how dare you accept it? boss li knows he won’t be willing!”
Chi leixi had also thought of this problem, but she found an excuse to reject the idea.
This was his return on his investment and not a personal gift. The nature of this was different, and it was acceptable.
It was better to tell sister Ming the truth. Chi yaoxi waved the key in her hand and said,”
“This car is not a personal gift. It’s the return of my investment in the company. It’s a sports car awarded by the company.”
Sister Ming looked at Chi yaoxi in shock.”
“You have other investments? A film company? How come I didn’t know about it?”
The corners of Chi Luoxi’s lips curled up slightly, and her eyes blurred with laughter.
“No, sister Ming. It’s Xiao Ye, President Xiao’s jewelry company. At that time, the company was newly opened and in the early stages of its start-up stage, it needed capital investment. It was also a difficult time, so I invested all my private money. Now, business is good, and I really made a profit.”
“Xiao Ye, President Xiao! Aiya, was this really appropriate? You’ve had a lot of scandals with him, and now you’re giving him a car. If boss li knows, will he be okay?”
Chi luexi had her worries too. Sports cars were different from jewelry. If they were too big and expensive, it would be easy for people to misunderstand.
However, he recalled what Xiao Ye had said. This was a reward given to him in the company’s name and not a personal gift. It shouldn’t be a big deal and he could explain it clearly.
Although she thought this way, Chi Luoxi said,”
“If you know, then you know. It’s nothing, okay? don’t tell me that in this day and age, only soldiers are allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light up lamps?”
Sister Ming glanced at Chi yaoxi and reminded her,”
“I can see that President li is sincere to you, and that’s good. Don’t be ungrateful and offend people with your words! Your relationship with Xiao Ye is already very close. Now that he’s back, you’re in close contact with him and you even sent him a luxury car. What would President li think?”
Chi leixi said coldly,”
“He can think whatever he wants, and he can be sweet with other women, but I can’t accept the company’s reward? Besides, the two of them aren’t married yet, so they’re still free. ”
When sister Ming heard this, she put down the fruit in her hand and her expression became serious.
From Chi Luoxi’s words, did she have an argument with President li? why did her words sound so sour?
President li was flirting with other women? No way? Sister Ming deeply doubted the truth of this sentence.
In the company, President li was famous for being single.
There were many female employees in the company, and some of them were bold enough to take the initiative to throw themselves at President li because of their looks. However, none of them had a good ending. They were taught a lesson and fired directly.
Later on, everyone knew about President Li’s personality and didn’t dare to provoke him. They only dared to watch from afar and didn’t dare to get close.
Chi Luoxi actually said that President li was flirting with another woman? He didn’t know where these words came from.
Sister Ming asked worriedly,”
“Yue Xi, did you and President li have a fight?”
“No, I didn ‘t,” Chi luexi said casually, her expression extremely cold.
“Where is he? Also, didn’t we agree to go to President Li’s house to recuperate after we’re discharged? Why did you go home?”
Sister Ming thought about these things and felt that there must be something going on between the two of them.
Sister Ming was a little unhappy with Chi Luoxi for being so willful.
“Luexi, I don’t want to criticize you, but you might not know how good President li is to you.
Ever since he came back from his business trip, he’s been keeping you company in the hospital every day. I’ve seen him working day and night, so I asked him to go home to rest and switch shifts with him, but President li refused.
All the food, drinks, and necessities were prepared by him in advance. There are a lot of things in the company waiting for him to deal with, but he ignored them. Are you still not satisfied?”
Chi Luoxi knew what Li Jingjing meant. She was grateful for Li Jingjing’s care, but ...
These were two different things!
