"Didn’t win the bid?"
Lin Fengyi exclaid in surprise, thinking she must have misheard, "No, Assistant Rong, are you sure you’re not mistaken? How could our Shen Family not win the bid?"
She didn’t believe it.
"Mrs. Shen, this is the final decision I’ve received, I apologize."
"Is there sothing about our Shen Family that’s inferior to the Zhai Family?"
In previous years, it was almost always the Shen Family winning the bid, with the Zhai Family having won once two years ago, but just that one ti!
So she naturally assud it would again be the Shen Family this ti.
But now, this shocking news suddenly ca like a bolt from the blue!
Especially in front of Shen Xiaomi and the others, she had just been boasting. Wasn’t this a public slap in her face?
Assistant Rong’s face still maintained its professional smile, "This ti, it’s not the Zhai Family that won the bid either."
"Not the Shen Family, and not the Zhai Family?"
This ti, Lin Fengyi was even more puzzled. Looking across the entire Imperial City, aside from the Shen Family, it was the Zhai Family; in terms of agricultural products, they practically had the market cornered!
"When did a new agricultural company appear in the Imperial City? How could I not know?"
She found it hard to believe, trying hard to maintain the smile on her face.
"This ti, the cooperation is with a brand new supplier... the specific information will be announced later, and Mrs. Shen will naturally know then."
Assistant Rong wasn’t upset by her questioning.
He wasn’t new to being an assistant, managing such simple emotions was a piece of cake for him.
"But..."
"Aunt, stop giving Assistant Rong a hard ti, this result isn’t sothing he can control."
Seeing her aunt about to get all bothered, Shen Xiaomi quickly spoke up to stop her, "Assistant Rong, thank you for coming all this way."
"You’re welco, Miss Shen. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave."
"Take care."
Lin Fengyi’s focus was on not winning the bid, and hearing Shen Xiaomi’s voice, she frowned in displeasure, "Xiaomi, did word get out that you were going to work with that girl from Phoenix Mountain? Is that why the Rong Family didn’t select us!"
She thought over and over and could only co up with this reason!
"Aunt, only Grandpa and I know about the cooperation with Youyou, how could it have gotten out? Besides, even if it did, it’s no big deal; the quality of Youyou’s family’s products is absolutely reliable!"
"Okay, are you thinking that since we didn’t win the bid, you can use shortcuts? I’m the one in charge here, and I don’t want to say anything unpleasant, lest it damages your friendship with a classmate... eh? Assistant Rong, do you have other business?"
Just as Lin Fengyi was about to finish her sentence, she saw Assistant Rong, who was about to leave, suddenly return.
Thinking he had other instructions, she quickly changed to a smiling face and welcod him.
"Miss Chi?"
But he walked right past her without even a glance!
"You’re Chi Youyou, Miss Chi?"
Assistant Rong went straight to Chi Youyou, with an expression full of joy.
His smile was completely different from the previous professional fake smile.
"Hello, I’m Chi Youyou, and you are?"
Chi Youyou looked at the man in front of her with a puzzled expression. She thought for a mont and confird that she hadn’t t him before.
Not only was Chi Youyou puzzled, but Lin Fengyi was also confused.
What was going on here?
Did Assistant Rong know this country girl who ca from the countryside?
And he was being so polite to her!
Just as she was still trying to figure it out, she heard Assistant Rong respectfully introduce himself:
"Hello, Miss Chi, my na is Rong Lin. I didn’t expect to et you here. I wasn’t sure earlier, but the young master specifically instructed to contact you today to discuss the cooperation regarding Guan Gui’s fruits and vegetables."
