9: Chapter 009 I'm a decent person.
She watched as Qin Xun stood there dazed.
Xia Ning picked up a pen tube from the desk, poked Qin Xun with it, and asked,
“What's wrong?”
“Is there work to do?”
For some reason, she felt a faint sense of anticipation in her heart.
Qin Xun turned his head to look at her, his eyes gradually lighting up.
“Xiao Xia, what was your major?”
Xia Ning was taken aback.
“Marketing.”
Qin Xun burst into laughter.
“Perfect, it matches your major!”
He forwarded Cheng Wan's message to Xia Ning.
“Give me a few proposal drafts this afternoon. I'll take a look and pick a good one to submit.”
Xia Ning: “...”
What kind of situation was this?
I was the one who set the task, and he just threw it right back at me?
She hesitated for a moment and said,
“Isn't this your job?”
Qin Xun raised an eyebrow.
Hey!
This slacking-off queen—she was unhappy about doing just a little bit of work?
He replied,
“My major doesn't match; I didn't study Marketing.”
Xia Ning was stunned.
“Your major doesn't match, yet you came to a Marketing company to be a planner?”
Qin Xun: “I'm an assistant. I came in as an assistant and, through my own unremitting efforts, I was promoted to a glorious planner.”
“You write first. Although I don't know Marketing planning for now, my appreciation skills are top-notch.”
“I can pick the best one from the several schemes you write!”
Xia Ning: “...”
Picking the best scheme—isn't that the boss's job?
Except for yesterday, she had never been this speechless in her life.
And the reason the number of times she felt speechless broke records yesterday was also because of the nuisance in front of her!
Reluctantly, she opened a document and stared at the screen, beginning to think.
Her mind was in a mess.
She turned to glance at Qin Xun and asked,
“Then what exactly was your major?”
Qin Xun took out his phone, crossed his legs, and smiled.
“Postpartum Care for Sows!”
Xia Ning: “...”
The number of times she felt speechless today had broken yesterday's record!
Today had become the most speechless day of her life!
Xia Ning stopped paying attention to Qin Xun, having already sentenced him to death in her heart.
She began to think seriously.
How exactly could she expand the company's influence, build a reputation, create a brand, and become a Marketing company everyone wanted to cooperate with?
Suddenly.
Qin Xun's voice rang in her ears.
“Don't you think this goddamn boss is crazy?”
Xia Ning turned her head sharply and looked at Qin Xun.
He called me 'goddamn' again?
Qin Xun pointed at the '50,000 yuan' on the computer screen and said,
“Look, with 50,000 yuan in activity funds, he wants to plan a charity event that creates a sensation throughout the city.”
“Don't you think that's excessive?”
Xia Ning was somewhat unconvinced.
“Using a small amount to achieve a big result is how we show our company's strength!”
“If it could be planned with a budget of 5 yuan, that would be even more impressive!”
Qin Xun looked at Xia Ning and suddenly felt that she was sick.
Seriously ill!
“Do you know that the richest man in Haicheng donated 10 million to Nan Shan Primary School the day before yesterday?”
Xia Ning was taken aback, not knowing why he was asking this, and hesitated for a moment.
She shook her head against her conscience.
“I... don't know.”
Qin Xun smiled and placed his phone on Xia Ning's desk; it displayed the news of the richest man's donation.
“See, even you don't know.”
“Aside from journalists and the teachers and students at that school, how many people know he donated such a large sum of money?”
“I only found this news just now by typing 'charity' directly into the local news search bar.”
“In a city of over 7 million people like Haicheng, throwing in 10 million didn't even make a splash.”
“Let alone a mere 50,000 yuan?”
Xia Ning looked at Qin Xun, remained silent for a while, and then said,
“The donation amount is the donation amount, and the activity budget is the activity budget. They're different.”
Qin Xun looked at Xia Ning and felt she was a bit strange.
Judging by her resolute attitude, it seemed like she wanted to live or die with the company?
Then again, if the company goes bankrupt!
Where else would she find such a great place to slack off?
This slacking-off queen!
Suddenly.
Xia Ning looked at Qin Xun and asked,
“50,000 yuan is indeed a bit difficult.”
“How about we apply to the company to increase the activity budget to 500,000?”
Qin Xun looked at the naive girl in front of him and gave her a thumbs up.
“Commendable courage.”
“But I don't recommend it. We're just low-level employees; how can we make such an excessive request?”
“What if we bankrupt the company?”
Hearing the word “bankrupt”.
Xia Ning frowned slightly.
Why wasn't there a single auspicious word coming out of this guy's mouth? It was all “slacking off”, “goddamn boss”, and “company bankruptcy”.
If the company ever went bankrupt,
It would be because he cursed it!
Xia Ning gave Qin Xun a faint glance and silently turned her head back to the computer screen.
Qin Xun was very satisfied with this assistant.
She can slack off, and she can work.
She's a talent!
He continued to play on his phone, painstakingly accumulating his slacking-off value.
Xia Ning took a few deep breaths to calm her mood and began writing her proposal.
Time passed minute by minute.
She gradually got into the zone.
She had already finished three concepts, and just as she was about to write the fourth,
Suddenly, Qin Xun's voice rang out again.
“Hey! Xiao Xia!”
Xia Ning turned her head to look at Qin Xun, her face full of confusion.
Being forcibly pulled out of a high-spirited working state, she was not in a good mood.
A gentle smile appeared on Qin Xun's face.
“You've been writing for so long!”
“It's time to take a break!”
Xia Ning tilted her head, looking somewhat cute.
Seeing that she hadn't reacted, Qin Xun lowered his voice and said,
“Slack off! Don't forget the main business!”
He repeated his “bible”.
“The more you slack off, the better your mood; the better your mood, the higher your efficiency; the higher your efficiency, the more work you get done.”
“So, the more you slack off, the more work you do!”
Xia Ning: “...”
This godforsaken brat!
He's truly a black sheep!
Was it really true that while one's own laziness is shameful, a colleague's hard work is even more disheartening?
A spark of fire rose in her heart, burning larger and larger.
Seeing her face turn a bit red, Qin Xun asked,
“Is your low blood sugar acting up again?”
“Didn't eat enough at lunch?”
Xia Ning looked at Qin Xun, suppressed her anger, and shook her head without changing her expression.
Arguing with this kind of person wasn't worth it!
Just fire him directly!
Qin Xun wasn't very good at reading people's expressions, especially the subtle micro-expressions of girls—that was a talent reserved for simps.
“Let me see the proposals you've written. I'll pick a good one to send to Sister Cheng.”
“Then Sister Cheng will send it to that boss who hasn't even shown his face yet.”
Xia Ning's lips moved as she murmured,
“Um—I don't think that's necessary, right?”
I wrote it myself, is there any need to go in a circle just to look at it again?
Qin Xun said in a comforting tone,
“Don't be shy. No matter how poorly you write, I won't look down on you.”
“As for me, my character is still decent!”
