"I’ll first prepare the materials for you, please take a rest here." On the table in front of Ning Youguang, tea, water, coffee, and various exquisite snacks had already been prepared.
The client manager had just gone out when a slightly overweight middle-aged man pushed the door open and entered.
The visitor was the deputy president of the private bank.
"Ms. Ning is here for business?"
Ning Youguang stood up, "President Zhang."
"Please sit, don’t be so formal." Deputy President Zhang laughed heartily and sat down opposite Ning Youguang, picking up the teapot to pour tea, "This tea from our bank is the new Anji White Tea Jade this year, try and see if you like it."
Ning Youguang picked up the teacup and took a sip, "It’s tasty, fresh and sweet."
"I’ll have Xiao He send you two boxes later, this year’s Mid-Autumn Festival gift from our bank is this Jade." Deputy President Zhang said warmly, "Jade has high amino acid content, drinking it can calm the nerves and bring inner peace, just right for the dry autumn weather."
"Thank you." Ning Youguang accepted graciously.
Xiao He is her client manager.
Next, in the elegantly decorated VIP room, the two chatted about the recent financial market trends over tea.
Halfway through the conversation, soone knocked and entered, "President Zhang, Mrs. Zhao is here."
"Mrs. Zhao is here?" Deputy President Zhang’s face lit up with delight, then he looked sowhat apologetically at Ning Youguang, "Ms. Ning, I’m sorry, there’s an urgent business I need to personally handle, I must excuse myself."
"No problem, you go ahead."
Deputy President Zhang was purely here to keep her company today as a substitute for the actual president.
Sitting for so long, they hadn’t discussed anything important, just polite exchanges and niceties.
The reason he ca, Ning Youguang guessed, was likely because the actual president was busy with sothing today, otherwise it would have been the president sitting in front of her making small talk.
Every ti she cos to handle business, whether big or small, as long as the president is there, he will co over to chat a few words to show the bank’s respect and courtesy to VIPs.
Deputy President Zhang got up, looked at his watch, and said to Ning Youguang, "It’s already eleven o’clock, Ms. Ning, why don’t you have lunch here, I’ll have soone arrange it."
"No need, Deputy President Zhang." Ning Youguang smiled lightly, "I’ll leave once Manager He helps with the business."
"Then I’ll urge Xiao He." Deputy President Zhang offered another round of pleasantries before leaving the VIP room.
As he opened the door, client manager Xiao He happened to be about to enter with a stack of docunts.
"President Zhang." Xiao He stepped back to let Deputy President Zhang leave first.
"Xiao He, later give Ms. Ning two boxes of Jade, I’m heading over to handle so matters first." Deputy President Zhang instructed with a pleasant smile.
anwhile, sitting inside sipping tea alone, Ning Youguang happened to overhear a sowhat familiar middle-aged female voice outside the door —
"President Zhang seems busy."
It was Zhao Senior’s mother.
"Mrs. Zhao, hello hello." Deputy President Zhang greeted her promptly, "Long ti no see, you still look so noble and spirited."
"Oh, look at you, if I don’t keep anything inside, how can my spirit not be good?" Mrs. Zhao laughed heartily, indeed looking very spirited.
Ning Youguang smiled, put down her tea cup, and also got up to leave the VIP room, "Aunt Zhao."
"Ah, Ms. Ning, why are you here too?" Mrs. Zhao, originally talking to President Zhang, was extrely surprised to see soone walking out from the VIP room behind him.
