Chapter 016 Please, Brave One, Drink This Cup of Hot Phlegm
As soon as these words fell, Chen Leigan’s smile had already frozen on his face!
And the entire marketing department hall became dead silent! You could hear a pin drop!
Everyone recognized that this young girl, radiating youthful energy and waving a payment receipt, was Hu Qianqian, the secretary of Finance Department Deputy Director Zhou Anke!
Had the two million yuan payment really been received?
If Hu Qianqian confirmed it, then this matter would be set in stone, absolutely without error!
Chen Leigan stared at Hu Qianqian with a grim expression and said word by word: “Is what you’re saying true or false?”
Hu Qianqian, with her ponytail, bounced over: “Of course it’s true, the payment receipt is right here, two million yuan, our entire finance department is buzzing with excitement!”
Hearing this, Chen Leigan’s expression darkened to the point of dripping water! Su Rui, Su Rui, he actually managed to pull it off!
Hu Qianqian excitedly said: “What’s wrong, Brother Leigan, why do you have that expression? Isn’t this two million yuan deal yours? We all thought only you had such capability!”
It would have been better if Hu Qianqian hadn’t said this, but saying it was undoubtedly like rubbing salt in Chen Leigan’s wound!
“What do you mean only I have such capability? There are many talented people in our marketing department!” Chen Leigan nearly shouted.
Hu Qianqian was startled: “Why are you shouting at me for no reason? How can you talk like that, are you afraid someone will steal your sales champion position?”
This Hu Qianqian was truly skilled at twisting the knife, hitting Chen Leigan’s vulnerable spots with almost every word. Wasn’t Chen Leigan so agitated precisely because he feared someone would take his sales champion title?
This position was exclusively his, and he absolutely couldn’t give it to anyone else!
What Chen Leigan failed to notice was that now everyone in the marketing department was looking at him with schadenfreude in their eyes.
Some were also wondering what kind of background this Su Rui had, to be able to close a two-million-yuan deal on his very first day!
Such a person would be a national treasure-level figure in any company!
Su Rui smiled and picked up that cup of water mixed with thick phlegm, walking to Chen Leigan’s front: “Brave warrior, please drink this cup of hot phlegm!”
…
Hearing Su Rui’s words, many employees couldn’t help but burst into laughter! This guy was too cruel, could someone really humiliate another person like this?
Chen Leigan was furious and humiliated, looking at that disgusting cup of water, he wanted to cry but had no tears.
What does it mean to lift a rock only to drop it on your own feet? This was the most vivid demonstration!
Hu Qianqian looked at the cup in surprise and curiously asked: “What’s that yellowish-green stuff in the cup, is it freshly squeezed juice?”
Freshly squeezed juice!
Chen Leigan now deeply regretted why he had signed that agreement with Su Rui! Looking back, this guy had been setting him up from the beginning!
Poor foolish brain of his, he had stupidly walked right into the trap!
Now facing this disgusting thing, what should he do?
The agreement clearly stated that if he didn’t drink it, he would have to resign from Bikan automatically!
Of course, no one would force Chen Leigan to resign, but if he broke his word, how could he continue working in this company? Who would associate with someone who doesn’t keep their promises?
If he honored the agreement… my god, looking at the contents of that cup, Chen Leigan had an urge to die!
If he really drank it, he wouldn’t be a brave warrior, but a martyr!
“I invite the brave warrior to drink this cup again!” Su Rui said with a smile, pushing the cup forward a bit more.
Chen Leigan’s face had turned the color of pig liver!
At this moment, some troublemakers who had always disliked Chen Leigan started shouting: “Are you even a man? Do you treat your own words as farts?”
“Exactly, you signed an agreement but won’t follow through, it’s in black and white, do you think we’re all blind?”
“Chen Leigan, if you’re a real man, drink this cup of phlegm! If you don’t drink it, then resign yourself, we don’t want to work with a coward!”
It seemed Chen Leigan had made quite a few enemies with his arrogance; when the wall falls, everyone gives it a push. Taking pleasure in others’ misfortune and kicking someone when they’re down is always a joyful thing.
Chen Leigan’s face alternated between green and white, his throat moved once, showing his struggle.
“This… this is actually phlegm?” Hu Qianqian seemed unable to believe this fact. After expressing her disbelief, she covered her mouth and ran out!
These men in the marketing department were too extreme, completely beyond human endurance!
Su Rui smiled slightly and waved his hand, appearing magnanimous: “How about this, Champion Chen, you don’t need to drink it all, just one sip, just one sip will do.”
Chen Leigan looked at Su Rui suspiciously. Would this guy really help him like this? It didn’t seem likely. Was he playing some trick?
Besides, with phlegm… what difference did one sip or a whole cup make?
“Really just one sip?” Chen Leigan asked doubtfully.
“Really, why would I lie to you?” Su Rui nodded solemnly.
“As a man with guts, you wouldn’t fail even at this small task, would you?” Su Rui and the surrounding colleagues continued to use reverse psychology.
“Fine then, one sip is one sip, I’ll drink it!”
Chen Leigan knew that if he really broke his word, it wouldn’t be as simple as not accepting a bet’s outcome. He definitely wouldn’t be able to continue at Bikan Group afterward. This was where all his resources and connections were, he absolutely couldn’t leave!
What’s more important, face or money?
After weighing what mattered more, Chen Leigan finally mustered the courage to make this decision!
The marketing department’s office hall once again fell silent, everyone holding their breath, all eyes focused on the transparent glass in Chen Leigan’s hand!
Everyone wanted to see how Chen Leigan would complete this earth-shattering feat!
“It’s just one sip, right? For the sake of staying at Bikan, I’ll do it!”
Chen Leigan gritted his teeth, pinched his nose with one hand, raised the cup with the other, and poured the contents into his mouth!
Gulp gulp, he drank slowly, but didn’t follow Su Rui’s instruction to take just one sip. Ten seconds later, the cup of yellowish-green liquid was empty!
Chen Leigan really wanted to throw away the cup, wipe his mouth, and shout heroically: “Good drink!” But imagination is one thing, reality another – he simply couldn’t do it!
Just thinking about what he had drunk made Chen Leigan’s stomach churn!
Su Rui fought back his own nausea: “Didn’t we agree on just one sip? Why did you drink it all in one go?”
Chen Leigan gave Cao Tianping a resentful look. This fat guy’s phlegm was so thick, damn it, after one sip he couldn’t even bite through it! Making it impossible for him to stop!
“Ugh!”
“I can’t take it, I need to go throw up!”
“I need to go too, probably won’t have any appetite for food today!”
Thoroughly disgusted, the observing employees scattered like birds and beasts! In just half a minute, only Chen Leigan remained in the vast office hall of the marketing department! Everyone had covered their mouths and rushed to the bathroom to vomit! Even Su Rui had slipped away in the chaos!
Feeling the nauseating taste rising up his esophagus, looking at the empty hall, Chen Leigan smashed the cup to the ground with force!
“Damn you, Su Rui, I will definitely get revenge for this, definitely! Just you wait!”
After saying this, Chen Leigan walked out with red eyes! He… he needed to go home and brush his teeth!
About ten minutes later, people gradually returned to the office, and by now Su Rui was undoubtedly the center of everyone’s attention.
A newcomer who completed two million yuan in sales on his first day of work – how could people not be amazed? Only a fool would believe he didn’t have backing!
Lin Aoxue was in her office looking down at documents, completely unaware of what had happened outside, when there was a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
The door opened, and Marketing Director Xue Ruyun entered. This mature woman, though dressed in conservative business attire, still easily aroused the fantasies of all men with her voluptuous curves.
“Ruyun, what’s the matter?” Although Xue Ruyun was older than herself, Lin Aoxue still called her “Ruyun,” showing their good personal relationship.
“Director Lin, there’s something I must report to you.”
“Oh? What is it?” Looking at Xue Ruyun’s expression, Lin Aoxue was puzzled.
“I think our Bikan Group’s annual sales champion has already appeared ahead of time,” Xue Ruyun said with a smile.
“The annual sales champion has appeared early? It’s only May.” Lin Aoxue clearly remembered that last year’s Chen Leigan, though he completed over ten million yuan in orders, had achieved more than four million in the last month alone. If even he was like that, how could Xue Ruyun say the sales champion had already emerged? How was that possible?
Xue Ruyun sat down with charm and placed two pieces of paper in front of Lin Aoxue.
“Two million yuan? Su Rui?”
Lin Aoxue clearly saw the words on the contract! Even someone as cold and composed as her couldn’t help but be moved!
Of course, her first reaction was—disbelief!
“Has the authenticity of the contract been verified?”
Xue Ruyun smiled: “The authenticity of the contract is no longer important because the two million yuan payment has already been transferred to the finance department.”
“So, Director Lin, the weekly sales target of one million yuan you originally gave Su Rui has been exceeded by twenty times.”
Twenty times!
Hearing this, Lin Aoxue’s mind went blank!
When she set that task for Su Rui, Lin Aoxue was completely motivated by her dislike for this guy, determined to drive him out of Bikan. But Su Rui had exceeded the task by twenty times! Even if she wanted to fire him, she couldn’t find a reason!
Would she complain that he made too much money for the company? An unprecedented single sale of two million yuan deserved heavy commendation!
Two million yuan was definitely not something an ordinary wealthy person could casually produce. Who exactly was this Su Rui? How could he achieve this?
If Lin Aoxue knew that Su Rui had completed this huge order by simply sending a few QQ messages, she would probably be ten thousand times more shocked than she was now!
The ice beauty Lin Aoxue sat in her chair lost in thought, not even noticing when Xue Ruyun left!
