Chapter 49: The Taste of Soup

In the cramped car, three people with very different minds each occupy a corner.

Xue Rin originally planned to pick up Yao Zhixia every day from now on, so as to take the opportunity to shorten the distance between him and her, who would have thought that this was only the first day, and Liu Piaopiao's ten thousand years and fart worm would be pasted.

Xue Rin secretly complained in his heart, only blaming the person he liked for being a loving master, when Yao Zhixia thanked him for his kindness and planned to take the subway with Liu Piaopiao, he had to choose to compromise, it was better to have a light bulb than not even have a chance to get along.

"We're all gone, what should we do in Yuen Long?" Yao Zhixia asked worriedly.

"Don't worry about him, Sister-in-law Liu at home will come over to cook for him. ”

Xue Rin is quite dissatisfied with the mentality of Yao Zhixia, a good old man, she has only known the little child for a day, she is so concerned, when can she take the initiative to care about him, a beautiful man who sways in front of her every day?

Yao Zhixia was relieved at this time, although she had known Yuen Long for a short time, she always felt that the child was very lonely, ordinary children were always lively and active, but he kept a straight face and refused to be touched by others, as if he had set up a door in his heart, and no one wanted to open it.

"Xue Rin, when you have a weekend break, don't you take him out to play?"

The reason why Yao Zhixia asked Xue Rin this way was because in her eyes, Yuen Long's expression that couldn't arouse his interest in anything, and his indifferent attitude towards everyone, were very similar to Xue Rin when they first met.

It is said that similar people are like two people inside and outside the mirror, only the two of them can read each other, Yao Zhixia faintly holds an expectation, hoping that Xue Rin and Yuen Long can see their bright side in each other, no longer close themselves, no longer have a kind of defensive vigilance against the world, and enjoy the beauty and love in this world.

"I'll still play with him, I can not be played by him! This kid is a devil!" Xue Rin had already seen the devil's tricks last night.

"You haven't been home for so long, he's not familiar with you, so it's natural to be a little shy, right?"

"Shy, haven't you seen him open his mouth to make an offer......"

"What's the price?" Yao Zhixia was a little confused.

Realizing that he had leaked his mouth, Xue Rin clicked the brakes in a panic, and the three people in the car immediately rushed forward.

"This Mr. Xue, are you okay?" Liu Piaopiao, who was sitting in the back row, couldn't help but speak.

was suddenly called away last night, and she didn't even come back overnight, and Sister Zhixia, who was already very tired from working during the day, had to take care of the big ones and the small ones, which made Liu Piaopiao a little angry.

Xue Rin glanced at Liu Piaopiao in the rearview mirror, and saw that her face was extremely bad, so he said meaningfully: "I'm fine, it's Gong Yan who has something." ”

Liu Piaopiao immediately straightened up when she heard those two words, she craned her neck and wanted to say something, but the words were swallowed back when they reached her mouth, she hated the taste of being grabbed by Xue Rin the most, especially not wanting to see his smug face.

"Gong Yan, don't tell me about such a big thing, hey, it's really not interesting!" Seeing Liu Piaopiao's reaction, Xue Rin snorted lightly and complained matter-of-factly.

Liu Piaopiao couldn't sit still when she heard Xue Rin's tone, Gong Yan talked to her in WeChat for the first time last night, although it was only a few words, but for Liu Piaopiao, who had just discovered her heart, it was like a gift from God, making her toss and turn and find it difficult to sleep, and she kept thinking about the weekend date proposed by Gong Yan.

People are always suspicious of good things, worried that they will come and go quickly, worried that they can't grasp it, worried that all this is just an illusion, and that beauty is really a contradiction that will make people look forward to and worry.

He ...... What reason do you have to tell you about him and me?" Liu Piaopiao couldn't help but complain.

"What is it with you? I'm talking about a new project that has just been set up in the mall recently, how can I say that I am also a member of the group, how can I not tell me about such an important matter!"

"I ...... I, it's nothing, I have nothing to do with him, what's the matter!" Liu Piaopiao found that she had been commanded again, but if she was angry, she fell into Xue Rin's arms, so she had to swallow her anger and admit that she was unlucky.

Xue Rin caught a glimpse of Liu Piaopiao holding his arms and not speaking from the rearview mirror, and couldn't help but smile down.

Yao Zhixia on the side saw that Xue Rin's treacherous plan succeeded, for fear that he would have to make an inch and say something excessive, so he raised his hand and stroked Xue Rin's arm, suggesting that he should not go too far.

Xue Rin, who was being proud, could realize that this gentle action was out of admonition, but thought that this was Yao Zhixia who accepted his heart after last night's baptism, and his already sunny smile was a lot brighter.

He stretched out his right hand and grabbed Yao Zhixia's left hand, and clenched it tighter, as if he was carving his ownership.

Xue Rin's sudden movement startled Yao Zhixia and hurriedly hid to the side, and tried his best to pull his hand out, but Xue Rin's hand was like a plier and would not let go, so the two had to stalemate like this.

Liu Piaopiao's eyes widened in the back seat, staring at the two people who regarded her as air, and didn't dare to make a sound.

----

After the project planning discussion in the morning, Xue Rin had a further understanding of Yue Qun, or rather, he had a more favorable impression of this person.

Precise questioning and methodical deployment are the distinctive style of Yue Qun, a manager, which makes Xue Rin, who has received advanced operation and management concepts, quite admired, and it is not surprising that Xue Huaiyuan will accept him for his own use regardless of his previous suspicions.

During the lunch break, everyone went to eat separately, and Xue Rin saw that Yue Qun had not been out of the office, so he knocked tentatively on the door.

"Please come in. Yue Qun's voice came from inside.

Xue Rin walked in and asked out of sight: "Mr. Yue, aren't you still eating?"

Yue Qun raised his head from the document, "Oh, Xue Rin, didn't the Dahua Operations Department and the Investment Department come to have a meeting this afternoon, I have read their data before, and I have some questions, and I want to sort them out and use them in the afternoon." You go eat first, I'll ask Secretary Liu to order takeout for me when I'm hungry. ”

Xue Rin was a little ashamed when he heard it, as the son of the founder, he was not as active as the leader who worked for others.

"Mr. Yue, otherwise, I will order two takeaways, and I will sort out the problem with you, and I also have some disagreements with the data of the Dahua Investment Department. ”

Yue Qun looked at Xue Rin in surprise and nodded gently.

An hour later, the work of the two finally came to an end, Xue Rin reached out and touched the lunch box, and found that it was already cold, he got up and went out with the lunch box, "I'll go out and warm it up." ”

Yue Qun closed the notebook, took off the gold-rimmed glasses, rubbed his sore eyes, got up and walked around the periphery of the desk.

He looked down at Xue Rin's open notebook, a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Knock knock!

Xue Rin knocked on the door and walked in, Yue Qun quietly walked to the sofa and sat down, opening the two lunch boxes that Xue Rin had placed in front of him.

"Mr. Yue, I don't know what you like to eat, so I ordered one I like, this time you will take it first, and next time you tell me in advance. ”

Since the first time he saw Yue Qun, Xue Rin had an indescribable sense of intimacy, in terms of age, he was ten years older than himself, but the two of them got along like old partners and brothers, seeing that Yue Qun was a person without a fight, Xue Rin simply got along with him.

Yue Qun looked at the beef and radish soup in the lunch box, and didn't speak for a long time, his expression was a little unusual.

Xue Rin, who had already started, saw that he didn't move his chopsticks, and asked curiously, "What's the matter?" Don't you eat beef?"

Yue Qun raised his head as if he had been suddenly woken up, he hesitated for a long time, and said lightly: "Is the taste of the soup determined by beef or radish?"

Xue Rin was stunned by this unexpected question, and he stared at Yue Qun who was falling into deep thought, not knowing if he was asking a literal meaning or something else.

Yue Qun scooped a spoonful of soup into his mouth and savored it carefully, Xue Rin looked at him curiously from the side, wondering what his next expression would be.

Yue Qun's expectant eyes immediately returned to coldness, and it could even be said that he was disappointed, he put down the soup spoon and began to eat stir-fry and rice intently, the bowl of soup seemed to be completely neglected.

Xue Rin was a little puzzled, there were not a few people who had requirements for soup, but there were very few people who would ask this question.

"Xue Rin, have you ever met any special person, she silently walked to you when you were abandoned by the world, and when you were reaccepted by the world, she quietly left, I said leaving, completely disappeared, as if she never existed. ”

Yue Qun suddenly opened his mouth, his tone could not hide his regret and loss, Xue Rin pondered for a while after hearing this, and then raised the corners of his mouth.

"Yes, she tried to escape, but I caught her. ”

Yue Qun snorted lightly and said enviously, "It would be nice if I had the ability to catch her." ”

After speaking, he showed a helpless smile, lowered his head and continued to eat.

An idea suddenly popped up in Xue Rin's mind for no reason, and he boldly spoke: "If you feel that you have to do her, then do everything you can to find her, the biggest is no more than an earth, it is better than a soul wandering around with nowhere to put it." ”

Hearing Xue Rin's words, Yue Qun was a little surprised, the young man eating takeout in front of him was completely different from what he had heard before, and the person he imagined, and he suddenly doubted his previous speculation.

It's just that the world is so big, where can I go to find the stranger he has never met but he can't let go?

----

Two p.m., conference room.

Xue Rin knocked on the table with a pen uneasily, and Secretary Liu suddenly entered the room and whispered to Yue Qun that Dahua's people had arrived.

When Xue Rin heard this, he immediately stood up and stood stiffly with his back to the door.

Xue Rin's abnormality was seen by Yue Qun, but he didn't have time to delve into the mystery, he stood up without hurry, carefully adjusted his sleeves, and walked towards the door.

Xue Rin followed behind Yue Qun, and as soon as he stepped out of the door, he saw Lin Qingyu walking towards them, this group daughter was still so beautiful and moving, and wherever she went, she was the focus of other people's eyes.

Unlike the Lin Qingyu that Xue Rin had seen in the past, today she was draped in elegant wavy hair, with delicate red lips, wearing a well-tailored white suit, and the pointed-toe high heels under her feet made Xue Rin want to take a step back when she looked at it.

"Hello Director Lin!" Yue Qun took the initiative to stretch out his right hand.

Lin Qingyu smiled slightly, shook hands with Yue Qun politely, and then swept his gaze to Xue Rin behind him.

"Hello Mr. Yue, this is ......" Lin Qingyu's face showed a moment of surprise, and then regained his composure after a moment.

"This is a newcomer to our company, my assistant, Xue Rin. Yue Qun introduced.

"Assistant?" Lin Qingyu looked as usual, but couldn't help but ask this question.

"Hello, Director Lin, I am Mr. Yue's assistant, my name is Xue Rin, I will be responsible for the whole process of following up the development of Island A, and please give me more advice!"

Afraid that Yue Qun would have questions, Xue Rin immediately took the initiative to reach out and introduce himself to Lin Qingyu.

Although the two of them have some personal grievances, Xue Rin feels that the reason why Lin Qingyu can sit in the position of director as soon as he returns to China is that his basic professionalism and overall situation are still indispensable.

Lin Qingyu stared at Xue Rin playfully, and then showed a smile, in the eyes of outsiders, this was just a polite smile, but in Xue Rin's eyes, it was a big mockery, but he could only continue to pretend to be stupid for now, and prayed that Lin Qingyu could cooperate with him to play stupid.

Xue Rin's outstretched hand hung in the air for a moment, and just as he was about to withdraw the hand that was boring to him, Lin Qingyu stretched out his hand like an amnesty and shook it politely with him.

"Hope...... Happy cooperation!" Lin Qingyu stared at Xue Rin, her face unchanged.

Xue Rin pursed his lips and smiled, unsure if the "cooperation" in Lin Qingyu's mouth included cooperating with him to keep the secret of his identity.

"This is ......"

Yue Qun looked behind Lin Qingyu and saw a young lady she had never met, and at the moment she looked at her, she quickly lowered her eyes.

"This is the project director of our operation department, You Jia, General Manager Chang is on a business trip, so she temporarily replaces President Chang to hold a meeting, and the project plan of our operation department is checked by Director You. Lin Qingyu introduced.

Yue Qun nodded, and stretched out his hand to You Jia with a smile and gentlemanly, You Jia hesitated for a moment, and then pursed his mouth and stretched out his hand to shake Yue Qun.

"Then let's go into the house for a meeting, please come in!" Yue Qun politely led the way to the two ladies.

Lin Qingyu glanced at Xue Rin and entered the house without looking back, while You Jia, who was following her, lowered her head slightly when she passed by Yue Qun, and never looked at him.

The meeting lasted for two hours in a serious and active discussion, and after the meeting, Lin Qingyu got up and went to the bathroom, and Xue Rin hurriedly chased after him.

Just as Lin Qingyu was about to walk into the bathroom, Xue Rin behind him couldn't help but shout in a low voice: "Miss Lin!"

Lin Qingyu turned around without surprise and looked at Xue Rin calmly, but did not speak.

"Miss Lin, it's not a secret, no one in the company knows my identity, and I hope you can keep this secret for me, I'm very grateful!"

Lin Qingyu hooked the corners of her mouth, "How much do I know about you?" Assistant Xue. With that, she went straight to the bathroom.

After hearing these words, Xue Rin didn't know whether to be happy or sad, but the stone in his heart was finally put down, if the cooperative development of the two groups could go smoothly, it would be the best result for him and Lin Qingyu to get acquainted.
