65: Could this be a marriage proposal?

The next day.

Xu Jia headed to the bank early in the morning.

As soon as she arrived at the office, she heard a commotion.

He Ting was showing off an LV bracelet, drawing envious gazes from the female colleagues in other departments.

"I heard that Mr. Li gave it to her..."

"It cost tens of thousands."

"Tsk tsk, it looks like she won't be staying at this company for much longer..."

Xu Jia's two colleagues were whispering to each other.

Seeing Xu Jia approach, they immediately fell silent.

Meanwhile, He Ting's eyes lit up when she saw Xu Jia, and she straightened her back!

In terms of looks and figure, she was indeed no match for Xu Jia.

But while the other girl wore unknown brands costing only a few hundred yuan, she was wearing famous luxury goods!

In terms of temperament and luxury, she completely outperformed Xu Jia!

Just as she was about to reveal the bracelet she had just received, Xu Jia ignored her as if she were air and walked right past.

"Brother Ma, are there any New Year gifts left that were prepared for the clients?"

Xu Jia asked a colleague.

The latter nodded quickly.

"Yes, there are still quite a few!"

"Alright, I'll take two sets to deliver to a client!"

Having said that, Xu Jia, who had only just arrived at the office, turned around and left again.

He Ting sneered at the sight.

"Keep struggling!"

"You are destined to be stepped on by me for the year-end performance!"

Over the past two days, Mr. Li had introduced several more clients to her, and now her performance for the month was far ahead!

It was predictable that she would be the one to win the evaluation next year!

Given how much Mr. Li favored her now, perhaps she wouldn't even need to work next year!

He Ting took out her phone and skillfully sent a coquettish voice message to Li Cheng.

...

For Xu Jia, He Ting was merely a villain character about to exit her life.

She was already numb to it!

After arriving at the storage room next door, she quickly picked up two bags of New Year gifts.

This was something she had promised to give to Chen Qiu, so she couldn't skimp on it.

Not only the New Year gifts, she also moved as much of the rice, flour, and oil piled on the side as she could.

Taking advantage of the bank's resources before quitting was perfectly fine!

Carrying the large and small bags, Xu Jia loaded them onto her Car model.

Then, she drove towards the home of Chen Qiu.

Half an hour later.

Xu Jia's wuling mini pulled up onto the cement yard of the home of Chen Qiu.

Luo Jinglan, who was drying clothes in the yard, was slightly stunned when she saw this "chopped pepper fish head".

At first glance, she felt it looked familiar.

Soon, a spark of realization flashed through her mind.

She remembered; it was the car that had come to pick up Chen Qiu in front of Boyue Mansion.

Luo Jinglan remembered her son mentioning that the girl driving was a junior high classmate who had visited their home before, Xu Jia!

Immediately, she saw Xu Jia open the car door and step out.

Luo Jinglan's eyes lit up instantly!

Xu Jia's tall figure and pure face were the absolute definition of a graceful young lady in the countryside!

Anyone who saw her would exclaim: What a beautiful girl!

Xu Jia hadn't expected to run into his mother as soon as she arrived at the home of Chen Qiu.

Just as she was feeling a bit nervous, she heard Luo Jinglan ask.

"Is that Xu Jia?"

"I still remember you; you used to play with our Chen Qiu in junior high!"

Seeing Luo Jinglan call out her name, Xu Jia's nervousness dissipated significantly.

"Yes, hello, Auntie."

"I came to bring some things for Chen Qiu..."

As she spoke, she began taking the New Year gifts and the rice, flour, and oil off the car, one bag at a time.

Luo Jinglan's mouth opened slightly in surprise.

"You brought so much?"

This wouldn't be a proposal, would it!?

"It's not much, these are all prepared for private banking clients by our bank!"

Xu Jia explained quickly.

Luo Jinglan breathed a sigh of relief with a hint of regret.

Then she quickly called out to Chen Zhide and Chen Qiu, who were still eating breakfast, to come and help move the items.

When Chen Qiu came out and saw this scene, he said in surprise.

"Even if you're dissatisfied with your former company, you don't have to empty the bank, do you?"

Xu Jia rolled her eyes at him, unable to laugh or cry.

"Then should I take them back?"

"That won't be necessary; you're already here!"

Chen Qiu laughed.

She hadn't even received her first paycheck yet, but she had already helped her boss transport the reserve food.

This employee was truly not bad!

Luo Jinglan listened from the side, stunned, but she did understand one thing.

"Girl, did you quit your job at the bank?"

Xu Jia nodded.

Luo Jinglan felt a sense of regret.

Although a bank job wasn't quite the same as a government position, in their generation's view, it was an 'iron rice bowl'!

Having such a job added quite a few points to one's marriage prospects!

"That's a pity..."

However, since Xu Jia was not related to her, Luo Jinglan couldn't say much, so she just asked.

"Then, have you found a new job?"

Just as she finished speaking, Chen Qiu interjected.

"Mom, this is a capable general I lured with great difficulty, don't go talking her back into the bank!"

Hearing this, Luo Jinglan looked at Xu Jia with extreme satisfaction!

Quitting her bank job to come and work for her son—this girl had Chen Qiu in her heart!

"The bank isn't doing so well nowadays; the pay is low and it's tiring..."

As she spoke, she said to Chen Qiu.

"She quit her bank job to help you, you cannot let her down!"

After saying that, she spoke softly to Xu Jia.

"If Chen Qiu bullies you, just tell Auntie!"

Xu Jia's pretty face flushed red.

"Auntie, I wanted to quit for a long time, and the compensation here is much better than what I had before."

Hearing her speak up for her son, Luo Jinglan was even more satisfied.

After moving the things, Chen Qiu and Xu Jia left.

On the way to register the company, Chen Qiu laughed lightly.

"I haven't even paid you a salary yet, how can you be sure the compensation here is better?"

Xu Jia snorted lightly.

"If the compensation is bad, I'll go tell Auntie!"

"Hey, that's not what you said just a moment ago!"

"That was just a moment ago!"

Although she said that, Xu Jia's expectations for the compensation were not high!

Chen Qiu's willingness to hand over so many shops to her management was already an immense sign of trust!

After all, in this regard, she could be considered a newcomer to the industry.

The company registration process was quick, and it was completed in half a day.

The company name was the one originally decided: Autumn Leaf Asset Management Co., Ltd.

Legal Representative: Chen Qiu.

Shareholder: Chen Qiu.

CEO: Xu Jia!

After registering the company, he said to Xu Jia.

"Let's go to the auto mall first."

"I wanted to buy a car for my dad, and now it can just be registered under the company's name."

Xu Jia nodded.

Buying a car under the company's name was a standard practice.

It could both reduce corporate tax burdens and optimize capital allocation.

"By the way, what kind of car do you like?"

"A BMW, I suppose..."

Xu Jia answered subconsciously, then looked at him with confusion.

"Why ask me? If you're buying a car for Uncle, you should ask him!"

"I have to buy one for you, too!"

Chen Qiu looked at her with a smile, and his matter-of-fact words made Xu Jia's heart tremble slightly.

"You are my only CEO; don't you need a car?"
