Winnie returned to the company and was ready to meet with the client. This client was received by the
other two partners. Winnie had never met this client once and did not know which company he was
from.
The cooperation project had been almost settled, and now only her explanation and analysis were
needed.
As soon as she opened the door of the meeting room, Winnie's eyes widened in surprise.
“Leo.”
Winnie was confused. Was Leo their client?
“Winnie, you know Mr. Johnson?”
One of the partners asked in surprise.
“Yes. He's our client?”
Winnie wanted to confirm her guess.
“Yes, I am the client you are to see.”
Leo replied with a smile. Although he had just met Winnie, he missed her and was happy to see her.
“Why didn’t you tell me just now? If I know it is you, I would not be so urgent.”
Winnie pretended to be dissatisfied.
“You two seem to have a good relationship.”
The partner laughed when he saw this scene. It seemed that the business would be successful.
“Yes, we are friends for years. And I came here by his car.”
Winnie roughly explained the relationship between them.
“Let's get to work and talk later.”
The work began like this. Winnie's explanation was very wonderful. It was the first time Leo saw her
work so seriously, so he felt more love for her.
The work was smooth, then Leo put forward another cooperation.
“I have another suggestion. Recently, there have been a lot of accidents involving online car hailing,
almost the victims were women. They fear of it. I think if we work together to develop a software that
can restrict online car hailing, it will be very popular and the government will support it.”
“It is good, Mr. Johnson, we can study on it. Is it a software in the car or in the user's mobile phone?”
One of the partners said with great interest.
“My initial idea is to install a hardware device that connects directly with the authorities in the car so
that passengers will feel easy to call the police. Miss Chambers is responsible for the software. My
company is responsible for contacting online car-hailing companies and working with the government. I
can find manufacturers to customize the hardware facilities, while your company is only responsible for
software research.”
Leo said his idea. He could cooperate with other companies, but Winnie was here, and she was the
best software designer. If the cooperation was successful, he would get more chance to contact
Winnie.
“It is not safe to install the hardware on the car, as the driver can completely control it. It is better to use
software directly and install it on the passenger's mobile phone and the monitoring platform of the car-
hailing company. Mr. Johnson, you can communicate with the government. It is best that the police can
install the corresponding software, so that the three constraints will contain the occurrence of crime.
Even if it happens, the police will arrive in time, so that it will reduce a lot of losses.
Winnie gave her thoughts on the matter.
“Good, I support your opinion. You can rest assured that I will communicate with the government. If
your company has the intention of cooperation, you can start the development immediately. I must
communicate with the government in advance.”
Leo was optimistic about Winnie's idea. In the field of software, he admired Winnie's smart mind.
Two partners fell on the line of sight of Winnie, only Winnie was confident, they dare to take such a
large cooperation case.
Winnie looked thoughtfully, then looked up at the partners and nodded affirmatively.
“Okay, we've decided to cooperate.”
The partner gave the final word.
“OK, I will ask my assistant to sort out a plan for specific cooperation. You study it first, and I will
communicate with the government. We will sign the contract while proceeding.”
Leo was very happy. It was the first time to do business in violation of the rules, only for Winnie's trust.
Since the end of the meeting, Winnie and another partner had been working overtime. Both projects
had to be completed within the specified time, which was still difficult for her small company.
Luckily, Winnie had rich experience and the partners were capable, otherwise they would not dare to
take two tasks at the same time.
Winnie would have to put off her plan to buy a car, because she got no time to see a car. Now the time
was limited and the task was hard. In the morning, she got up early and in the evening, she had to work
very late. She had to take subway
Tired and hungry after work in the evening, Winnie felt that her legs were not her own but she had to
walk to the subway station.
“Well, it's inconvenient not to have a car.”
Winnie said to herself. She walked slowly, sometimes even needed to stop to massage her sore legs.
Thinking about the progress of the work, she should stick to it for at least half a month, which was really
difficult for her who was used to driving.
Thinking of this, Winnie sat down on chair in the bus station. While massaging her legs, she made a
call to Daenerys.
“Am I waking you from a beautiful dream?”
Winnie tried to lighten her tone, but her exhaustion showed.
“I've just gone to bed, and you haven't come home yet? Winwin, can you not work hard like this?”
From Winnie's tone, Daenerys knew she was very tired.
“I just got off work and wanted to go to the subway station. I was so tired, so I sat down in the bus
station and had a rest.”
Winnie did not need to pretend since Daenerys knew the truth.
“What about the car? Why take the subway? Are you afraid to take the subway at this late hour?”
Daenerys was sleepy. But hearing that, she was worried about Winnie.
“The car was hit two days ago and hasn't been finished fixing yet. I plan to return it to Leo when it is
fixed. That's why I've been taking the subway these days.”
Speaking of this, Winnie looked at her high-heeled shoes and sighed.
“My high heels are killing my legs.”
“You deserve it. Leo still has other car, and Brian has many cars. You can borrow one and you don't
have to be so tired, why are you so stubborn?”
Daenerys was angry. Winnie was too independent and wanted to anything without any help.
But she would suffer.
“It has nothing to do with me. I can't rely on them all my life. No one in this world can be relied on for
life, so independence is good for me.”
“Daenerys, I'm calling to ask you for a favor. Buy me a car when you have time. I'm too busy to go out
these days.”
Winnie did not need Leo or Brian, she could do everything.
There was no man for her now, and she had to support herself.
“I'll see it tomorrow, what kind of car do you want?”
Daenerys was the only person who can help Winnie.
“Any brand will do, not more than 200,000 yuan, fuel saving, spacious for five people.”
Winnie didn't have much requirement on the car, she just need it to go to work.
“All right, I'll ask Kevin to go with me tomorrow. He knows more than I do.”
“Thank you, otherwise I would have lost half my life. Love you!”
Winnie was glad that she had such a true bestie to her and that she had someone to talk to in difficult
times.
Winnie put down the phone and got ready to go home. Just as she stood up and turned to go, to her
surprise, Brian's car stopped there. Brian was sitting in the driver's seat staring at her angrily.
Winnie was puzzled. What did she do wrong? Why did he look at her like that?
Brian stayed in the car. Winnie did not understand what he meant and did not say hello.
Winnie looked away and walked toward the subway. Whether her legs hurt or nor, she had to put up
with it now.
But there was the sound of car door opening.
Winnie involuntarily accelerated her pace. No matter Brian got off because of her, she did not want to
see his eyes of hatred.
Winnie wore high-heeled shoes, coupled with weak legs, coupled with the heart to avoid Brian,
accidentally she got her foot sprained.
“Ah...”
Winnie screamed and had to stop. Brian came to her.
“Did you get your foot sprained?”
Asked Brian in cold tone.
“I am fine.”
Winnie gritted her teeth to endure the pain and wanted to move on.
“What do you want, walk with a sprained foot? You have my car. Why don't you drive it? Why do you
have to take the subway so late? Aren't you scared when there's no one on the road?”
Brian suddenly roared. He had heard Winnie's words on phone and he was angry about that.
Brian was on his way to the company from a party, and saw Winnie when he passed by her company.
There was no one on the road, so he was worried and kept following her.
Watching her stop and go and rubbed her legs, Brian knew that she must be very tired.
As she sat in a chair at the bus stop, he stopped, rolled down the window and listened to her talk.
It was very quiet at night, and he could clearly hear Winnie's voice. It was so sad and lonely to hear a
single woman say those words in the middle of the night.
And she was the woman he loved.
Winnie stopped. She did not know Brian was concerned or gloating, but she knew, even if he was
concerned, his words hurt her.
“Is my affair any concern to you? Sir, you seem to be meddling.”
Winnie said that coldly and continued to walk forward. It was painful as she walked.
