Female Novel
Chapter 432
After returning to A City, Christina and the others had to go back to the company first.
The work in Japan went well. Their colleagues congratulated them on completing the project. Veronica
and Rachel were praised by the manager. The manager decided to hold a dinner party to celebrate it.
Even the old employees who didn't like Christina at first smiled kindly at her. After all, the development
of the company was a good thing for everyone.
"I heard that IP&G is very satisfied. Christina, you have just entered the company but you completed a
big order. You are really our company's lucky cat. Their department manager said that you have done a
good job this time. Our company will be given priority to the rest of the projects. That's great."
Christina smiled and said nothing.
Christina was recognized as the host, and Crystal was very happy for her, but Crystal found that she
seemed a little absent-minded.
"Are you too tired from your business trip? You don't have to work today and you can go home to catch
up on your sleep later."
"I don't dare to go back." Christina looked at Christina, her good friend, and revealed some annoyance.
Crystal was a little surprised, "What?"
Christina was sullen and she did not elaborate. She could not explain for a moment. She did not want
to wrongly accuse Brianna, but she really was the prime suspect at that time.
But Brianna usually called her sister-in-law and was dependent on her, so it was impossible for Brianna
to attack Christina.
"I met a strange thing in Japan..."
Christina tidied up the things she had brought back from Japan. She did not buy any handwritten
letters. In addition to the lucky cat she had bought in Japan, she also bought a silver-black ancient coin,
which was in her pocket now.
As she spoke, she took out the coin, "This coin has been following me..."
Crystal thought she was joking. She took the coin and looked at it for a long time, "It looks like an
antique coin."
"If I say that someone attacked me with a syringe and that this coin happened to be in the pocket of my
coat and save me," Christina said thoughtfully, and looked at Crystal again, "Do you think it's possible?"
Christina herself even thought it incredible.
Crystal heard what she said so mysteriously and took the coin curiously to look at it carefully.
"This coin is age-old. I don't know what kind of metal it is. This texture is like a symbolic emblem of the
power of a big family. There is obvious wear and tear on the edge of the coin, and there is a remnant of
yellow soil, so it should have been buried in the ground for a long time, and then it was dug out. It
should be a kind of antique or cultural relic..."
When Crystal was in college, she was very interested in world history, especially ancient history. She
read a lot of interesting archaeology materials in the library, and many of them were about the shape of
ancient vessels.
However, she had never seen such a texture like this coin.
Crystal returned the coin to Christina and asked doubtfully, "Christina, where did you get this coin?"
She remembered that Christina was not interested in antiques at all. She even said that these things
were touched by dead people and she was a little worried.
Christina looked down at it and whispered, "I don't know where it came from either."
"Christina!"
Penny suddenly trotted over and shouted hurriedly, "Hurry up and go to the customer reception room.
The customer representative of IP&G is there. Our manager wants you to go there now..."
Did the customer representative of IP&G come?
Crystal joked, "I just got off the plane and finished a order. IP&G sent someone over so soon. You, who
have the influential connections, is really different."
Christina did not talk to her about the ancient coin anymore. She put away the unknown Ancient Coin
thoughtfully and quickly walked to the customer reception room.
"You're really the lucky cat of the company."
Hearing the clear and wanton voice, Christina knew that the IP&G's customer representative was
indeed Lucy.
Christina was indifferent to her teasing, "What's the matter?"
Lucy took the initiative to approach her. She raised the document in triplicate on her right hand,
indicating the purpose of her visit, "Here's a big project for your company. This is about the diamond
exhibition in South Africa..."
"Christina, so you know each other?" The manager was fawning on Lucy but she ignored him
completely. He was anxious.
"I heard that there was going to be a public bidding in the diamond exhibition in South Africa." The
manager leaned over with a fawning smile and looked at the contract documents with his eyes shining,
trying his best to promise Lucy, "I didn't expect you to give us such a big project. I really appreciate
IP&G's trust in our company. We will do our best..."
Lucy turned her head and glared at the manager coldly. She thought he was too annoying.
The manager's smile froze. Pitifully, he was an elder and he was unwilling to eat a humble pie. But he
couldn't offend the client.novelbin
The manager laughed awkwardly, "Christina, please treat Lucy well here. I'll deal with something else
first." He left wisely.
Although Christina didn't know Lucy very well, she knew that Lucy probably didn't like to socialize with
people because of her straightforward personality.
They didn't have much communication, and they had never helped each other. In short, Christina felt
that Lucy's eyes were cold and fierce, and she did things neatly.
"Your left shoulder is injured." Lucy suddenly looked at her and said.
Christina immediately became alert and thought that this woman was really sharp.
Christina subconsciously shrugged her left shoulder and frowned. She did feel her shoulder a little
sore. It was because that she bumped into a corner of the wall when she was attacked in a Japanese
hospital last night. Her back shoulder was probably bruised and it was surprising that Lucy could see
the small injury at a glance.
"How do you know?" Christina said in a hesitant and speculative voice.
Lucy looked at her sharply and suddenly smiled, "Boss had accompanied you on a business trip, but
you actually get hurt. You are capable... According to your eyes, it seems that you didn't get hurt
because of falling. Tsk, who was so bold to hurt our boss's darling? Didn't you act coquettishly and tell
our boss?"
When Christina heard her sarcasm, she immediately ignored her and turned to leave.
"Hey!"
Lucy might also feel that she went too far and shouted anxiously.
Maybe it was because she was on the top floor of IP&G recently, facing that many female secretaries
all day long, and she was tired of working and working every day. Lucy began to despise herself for
being as narrow-minded as those gossips.
"I thought you would cause trouble on the business trip to Japan and that we should clean up the mess
for you..."
Lucy thought Christina was different. Although she didn't like Christina, she thought Christina was
better than the secretaries. Besides, Christina was the boss's woman, so Lucy didn't want to provoke
her.
Christina turned to look at her.
Lucy, who was usually cold, was a little awkward. She rambled, "I mean, you're actually more suited to
work at the club. It's better for you to be a shooting boxing coach's assistant there." It was easy for
Christina to cause trouble to screw up with women on these live broadcasts.
"Why didn't I think of that?" Christina called out in surprise.
Thinking about it carefully, she really preferred to work as an assistant at the club. She was more
interested in shooting and boxing. Looking at Lucy in front of her, Christina began to blame Patrick
gloomily.
"Why didn't he tell me?" Lucy could think of it, so Patrick must have thought about it too.
Lucy raised her eyebrows and told Christina some things, "At first, he thought you couldn't find a
suitable job and asked us to open a company in your name..."
Christina was shocked. She didn't know.
Lucy glanced at her. There were still a lot of things that Christina didn't know.
Because Lucy was the representative of their company's major clients, the company attached great
importance to it. When signing the new project contract, the boss had to be present in person.
As Christina had never seen the boss of the company, she did not know which one was Shepherd.
After they waited for about five minutes, the manager hurriedly ran over and whispered in Christina's
ear that the big boss was rushing over, so she mustn't let Lucy leave.
The working hours of the morning passed quickly and it was lunchtime in the blink of an eye.
Penny and Rachel went home to rest. After all, they were very sleepy after getting off the plane this
morning. Unfortunately, Christina could only stay to entertain Lucy. In order to show his sincerity, the
manager went to the most expensive hotel nearby and ordered five dishes and a soup for each of
them.
Christina thought that Lucy would be very impatient about waiting for others. Unexpectedly, Lucy was
happy to waste her time here.
They had lunch in the pantry, and Lucy found that the imported coffee machine in the pantry was a
good thing at a glance and even the coffee beans were expensive. The fruits were distributed to the
employees as the afternoon snack occupied most of the counter.
Lucy was amazed at the small business's generosity, though it was a break-even company.
Christina knew what she was thinking and said casually, "This company belongs to Shepherd's big
brother."
Lucy turned to look at Christina with disdain in her eyes, "Do you think I won't know what's on the
documents?" She said coldly, "There are a lot of companies invested by the Shepherd family. This
small company has been running for three or four years. It's just doing some small business all the
time. The Shepherd family doesn't pay much attention to it."
As she spoke, her eyes were filled with amusement, "However, this year, Peter transferred the
operation rights of this company to another person. The interesting thing is that from the moment you
went to work, Peter seems to have gone missing and can't be found."
Peter was Shepherd's big brother.
Couldn't Shepherd's big brother be contacted?
Christina looked a little surprised. She had never heard of it before.
Lucy wandered around the company after she was full.
"I'm looking forward to which boss will come to sign the documents with me later." As Lucy spoke, she
came to Christina's desk and picked up the new lucky cat on her desk with interest.
