Chapter 28: Office Interlude
I just grabbed the water glass and was about to take a sip, when I heard the words, I almost didn't squirt out, so I quickly wiped my mouth with a tissue, and then looked at Li Xue with a blank face, saying How can I be irresponsible? Don't talk nonsense.
Li Xue covered her mouth, ate and laughed, and said Look at you, you are so timid, I am joking! I breathed a sigh of relief and continued to wipe my sweat with a tissue, and before I put the tissue down, her words of some resentment came from her ears, "Why did you apply for a different volunteer than me in the college entrance examination that year? Didn't you say that you wanted to go to the same university?"
I was embarrassed, coughed for a long time before saying, "I didn't lie to you, I did apply for that volunteer, but the score was not enough and was brushed off." ”
Speaking of this, I felt a little helpless, and I looked away with my face in disdain, looking at the crowd of people walking by outside the glass window, and fell silent.
Everyone has an adolescence. In the years when I was in high school, Li Xue and I were in the same school and class, and our grades were about the same.
Later, when I faced the big exam, Li Xue sent me a note asking me which university I planned to apply for, saying that she wanted to enroll with me. I agreed, and I had a good talk with Li Xue at the time, but the sad thing was that I didn't do well in the college entrance examination, and I was more than ten points away from my first choice, so I missed it with her.
I felt embarrassed about this, so I didn't take the initiative to contact Li Xue, Li Xue didn't understand the situation, maybe she was angry, suspected that I was playing her, and simply stopped contacting me, but I didn't expect this misunderstanding to remain for five years, and it would be punctured by accident.
After listening to my explanation, Li Xue felt a little nostalgic, wrinkled her delicate little nose, and said I see, why didn't you explain to me back then? I sneered and said, "At first, I felt faceless, but then I gradually forgot about it." ”
She pouted and said yes, it's been five years, who can still remember that little agreement?
Then she lowered her head and stopped talking, making the atmosphere quite stiff. I became more and more uncomfortable, as if I had a steel needle stuck in my ass, writhed a few times, and then sneered, "No, I want to go, you continue to work on you?"
She looked at me angrily and said What, I will eat people, are you afraid of seeing me? I was so choked by her that I couldn't speak, so I had no choice but to continue to sit down, at this time the waiter came up with a coffee cup, I grabbed it, and covered my face with a water cup, Li Xue took a small sip of coffee, her mood improved, and she took the initiative to change the topic and talked about her life after graduating from college.
I'm very curious, she's young, just as old as me, how can she just leave the society and be qualified to come over to recruit on behalf of the company? Li Xue smiled lightly and said that because the company was opened by my family.
I immediately choked on my saliva, wiped off the coffee stains on my mouth, and said with a bitter face that your family background is so good, you were very quiet in those years, not at all public, I thought you were the same as me, your family background is mediocre, or I wouldn't take the initiative to recruit you.
She was a little angry, frowned twice, and said Lin Feng, what are you talking about, just because I have a good family background, don't you want to contact me?
Li Xue looked at me angrily and said forget it, there is no need to argue about the previous things, and now my company still lacks a department manager, do you want to try.
I shook my head and said yes, forget it, I don't have any management experience, it's best to start from the grassroots level. She thought about it, nodded and said That's okay, or you can go back to the company with me first, be a basic salesman, and then consider correcting when you will behave well?
At this point, I was so embarrassed that I didn't want to speak, so I shook my head and said no, I have to find a job myself, and you introduced me to it, what is this?
I was stupid when I was a child, especially in the face of beautiful girls, I always like to stutter, humming for a long time, but I can't tell why, and finally I can only bite the bullet and tell her that this matter is about the dignity of a man.
She was a little helpless, turned the spoon in her hand, and complained that I was pedantic, what age is this, and I am still so poor and exquisite? Besides, she just provided me with a job opportunity, and did not say what I wanted, whether I could do a good job or not depended on my own performance.
I hesitated for a long time, and then remembered that when my mother urged me to get up every morning, the face was full of disgust, so I stubbornly agreed, "Okay, then give it a try!"
Li Xue put on a bright and moving smiling face, came over and pulled my arm, and asked me to sign a contract with her company. I got up hard, and just as I was about to go to the roadside to take a taxi, Li Xue patted me on the shoulder and pointed to the red Maserati placed in the parking lot, "Go up, that car is mine." ”
My face hurts, and my heart says that this rhythm is a little wrong, is it because you want me to eat soft rice?
When I went downstairs to the company, she led me straight to the elevator.
During this period, she told me something about the company, saying that this company belongs to the family business, mainly engaged in luxury goods and high-end fitness equipment, the general manager of the company is her second sister, named Li Li, she is also just coming to the company for internship, and now temporarily in charge of personnel.
I said in my heart that the life of rich people is different, and I was thinking about what to say when I went up to the top floor, when the elevator had arrived at the place, Li Xue pushed me out of the elevator and pointed to the room behind the corridor, "That's my second sister's office." ”
I was a little stunned, "There's no need for this, I'll just apply for a small salesman, how can I need the general manager to interview in person?"
As I was talking, there was a coughing sound from the general manager's office, and I could hear that a woman was coughing, coughing very hard, accompanied by a burst of wheezing, I was stunned for a moment, and asked Li Xue, is your second sister's health not very good?
Li Xue's face was a little gloomy, she lowered her head, and said with a tangled face, "Well, I don't know why, in the past few days, my family's physical condition is not quite right, first my brother-in-law was hospitalized inexplicably, and then there is my sister, whose body and bones are also a little bad, maybe it is too hard to take care of my brother-in-law's hospitalization, so I contracted the wind cold." ”
I sighed, but I didn't take it to heart, no matter how rich people know how to enjoy, they have to take medicine when they are sick, right? At the beginning of this year, I heard the sound of a water cup falling from the general manager's office, followed by a muffled "bang", as if someone had fallen inside.
"Sister!" Hearing this, Li Xue was not calm, hurriedly squeezed me away, and ran towards the office. Suspicious, I stepped forward to see if there was anything I needed help with.
As a result, when Li Xue and I pushed open the office door, the scene that appeared in front of me made me dumbfounded.
On the floor of the office, there was a middle-aged woman with a painful expression, dressed exquisitely, with a delicate waist, and a very mature royal sister style, but at this time, the royal sister was lying on the ground, her limbs maintained a very curled posture, pinching her throat very hard, and the muscles on her face twitched for a while, revealing an expression of extreme pain.
Her eyes rolled upwards, revealing the whites of her eyes that took up almost the entire eyeball, which was extremely scary.
