Chapter 43: A Gathering of Colleagues
Since Xia Meng's chance encounter with the boss, he has been going well in his future work. Chu Yunxuan had a very good impression of Xia Meng, and sometimes took the initiative to mention Xia Meng and put forward pertinent suggestions on her design plan. Xia Meng also felt very good about this young boss who had no shelf, and felt that it was also a kind of luck to be able to work under such a person.
Unknowingly, Xia Meng has been coming to the company for almost a week, and during the lunch break that day, Chu Yunxuan came to the staff office, and he announced that he would organize a welcome party for Xia Meng after work, and he would go to Yutang Chunjing Hotel for dinner. Everyone was happy, and Xiaoqing even exaggerated that this was because Xia Meng's face was big, and they didn't enjoy this treatment when they entered the company.
When Xia Meng heard this, he was naturally a little flattered. When everyone was cheering long live the boss, she made a call to Wu Qing.
"Hey, is it Wu Qing, I'm Xia Meng!" Xia Meng was a little excited, after all, this was her first party with her colleagues after work. As a newcomer to the workplace, she is still very lucky, if the relationship with her boss and colleagues is very good, the work will naturally be smooth.
"Well, it's Xiaomeng! what's the matter?" Wu Qing was a little listless, and Xia Meng felt that his interest was not high.
"What's wrong with you, are you tired from work?" Xia Meng asked with concern, because every day after going home, Wu Qing had to stay up late, and there was a lot of work in the unit, and he was very tired every day.
"Isn't that the case? I'm going to work overtime again today. Wu Qing sighed, he has been working for almost a month, except for overtime or overtime, and it is unpaid labor without overtime pay. When he got home, he was tired to death, but the task in the unit had not been completed, so he could only stay up all night. No, with the hard work and the tiredness on the way to and from work, Wu Qing is thinner than before, and the whole person is in a very bad state, often complaining about this and that.
"Well, that's right, our company prepared a welcome party for me tonight, and I have to go to the hotel to rub it off after work, so I may come back late. When the time comes, if you get home first, don't worry about me!" Xia Meng became very careful and considerate, she knew that Wu Qing couldn't see her, and she would definitely be worried.
"Oh, that's right, I see. Besides, maybe who's going to come back late? Don't worry, you can relax!" Wu Qing said weakly, he was really a little tired.
"Okay, when you're tired, just rest for a while, don't be too yourself. Xia Meng was still not at ease, and repeatedly told her boyfriend.
"yes, I see. Now that I'm in trouble, I'll hang up first!"
"Okay!" Xia Meng hung up the phone worriedly, holding his chin in his hand thoughtfully. At this time, Xiaoqing came over and patted her on the shoulder, Xia Meng had not been in the company for a long time, but she and Xiaoqing became friends. Xiaoqing is four or five years older than Xia Meng, and he is also a foreigner. She has a cheerful personality, is helpful, and takes good care of Xia Meng, often eating together and getting off work.
"What's the matter, what are you thinking about?" Xiaoqing saw that Xia Meng was a little in a daze, and asked enthusiastically.
"It's nothing, it's just that I'm a little worried about Wu Qing. Xia Meng said faintly, he was happy just now, and his face suddenly became sad.
"Wu Qing, is that your boyfriend?" asked Xiaoqing, because she always heard Xia Meng mention his boyfriend.
"Well, that's it, his unit is very hard, he often works overtime, and he doesn't rest at night to stay up late to catch up with work. I'm really worried about him, he's already very thin......" Xia Meng said all his worries.
"Actually, I think both of them are outsiders, and it's not easy to work hard in Suzhou City. Finding a partner is either to find a good condition or choose a local, so that it will be easier in the future. Are you too stupid, such a good self-condition, set so early?" Xiaoqing analyzed the pros and cons from the perspective of a friend. Although Xia Meng disagreed, this was indeed a reality.
"We've been talking for so many years, and the two of us have persevered to this day, I don't want to give up!" Xia Meng said with a pout, although everyone was not optimistic about her and Wu Qing, she would never give up.
"Alas, it's up to you, what a silly girl!" Xiaoqing shook her head, but she still had a good impression of Xia Meng, because in this materialistic era, there are really not many beautiful girls who can keep a true love and not be hit by material things.
After getting off work, everyone carpooled to Yutang Chunjing Hotel, and Chu Yunxuan had already booked a big box. After all the personnel arrived, the boss Chu Yunxuan announced the opening of the banquet.
Yutang Spring View Hotel is a time-honored restaurant in the golden area of Sioux City. The dishes inside are mainly Subang cuisine, and the older generation of Sushi people know that this restaurant is very famous.
During the dinner, other employees took this opportunity to desperately toast the boss. But Chu Yunxuan refused to use drinks instead. Of course, the protagonist of this party is Xia Meng, and everyone naturally pours her wine. Xia Meng often goes out to earn extra money in college, and the amount of alcohol has long been out of words, so after a few rounds, her face still does not change and her heart does not beat, and everyone is amazed, saying that she is a wine fairy.
"Hey, Xia Meng, I heard that you are from Yishi, and that house is not far from Su City!" The male colleague Li Xianyang may be a little drunk, and he pulled Xia Meng to speak.
"Yes, I'm from Yishi, Yishi is a small place, but the customs are similar to this. ”
"That's a coincidence, I'm from Wu City, and I'm also on the edge of Yi City, so everyone is half a fellow countryman!" Li Xianyang can even contact this, and Xia Meng admires him a little.
"Uh-huh......" Xia Meng nodded awkwardly, not knowing how to answer. For the first time a colleague gathering, it is better not to cause anything unpleasant.
Xiaoqing heard it, and she roughly knew what that Lee Hsien Yang meant. So he immediately interrupted their conversation and interjected.
"Alas, I said Li Xianyang, what do you mean? Xia Meng, this big beauty, you don't have a chance, people already have a boyfriend! It's a top student from a famous university in Beijing, you, just pull aside!" After speaking, she touched Xia Meng with her hand, meaning I'll get him!
"Ah, you have a boyfriend! What a pity, I thought I could get the moon before the water! I didn't expect the moon to be taken away a long time ago!" Li Xianyang said regretfully, in fact, he noticed it on the first day Xia Meng's arrival, who doesn't like this kind of beauty!
Their conversation was all listened to by Chu Yunxuan, and he looked at Xia Meng slightly stunned: it turned out that she already had a boyfriend, no wonder she had a good grasp of proportion when he approached her intentionally or unintentionally. I saw that she was a very well-behaved girl. So although he knew that Xia Meng's famous flowers were mastered, this did not hinder Chu Yunxuan's admiration for her, and he thought that in his heart, he liked this girl even more.
Everyone got to know each other better and the party was a success. After Chu Yunxuan settled the account, everyone was ready to go home. Xia Meng had been worried about Wu Qing during the party, so she was a little careless. Since the colleagues who were driving had drunk some alcohol, they had to take a taxi back. Xia Meng and everyone lived in a bad way, and after saying goodbye to her colleagues, she prepared to take the car alone.
"Tututu, tut!" Xia Meng kept honking a car behind her, she was thinking about Wu Qing in her heart, and she didn't look back and gave way directly to the side of the road.
"Doot-to-to-to, toot-to-toch!" Strangely, the car didn't drive up, but it still kept screaming behind her. Xia Meng was upset by the sound of the car's horn, and she turned around angrily and was about to get angry, when she saw the headlights of the car shining on her all the time.
"I'm still wondering how long it will take you to turn back!" Chu Yunxuan poked his head out of the car and said to Xia Meng with a smile.
"Ahh
"I'll go get the car, and you'll all be running away in a while! I'll see you as I drive by. Chu Yunxuan was very natural, he looked at Xia Meng in front of him with a smile, and nothing else was revealed.
"Some of them drank alcohol and couldn't drive away. I didn't stop by them, so I came here by myself to take the car, which was also very convenient. Xia Meng smiled, slightly restrained. For some reason, every time she got along with Chu Yunxuan, she felt a little weird, maybe it was their dramatic encounter, Xia Meng was always a little embarrassed.
"Then you come up, I'll send you!" Chu Yunxuan said with a smile, his face was so sincere, and his attitude was also very friendly.
"That, I'm so embarrassed! It's okay, I live in the Liuyuan community, not far away. Xia Meng refused Chu Yunxuan's kindness, although she knew that he was a very good person, but it seemed a little unreasonable to trouble him so late, and he was also her own boss.
"It's okay, I also live near Liuyuanli, it's very convenient, come up quickly, it's a little late today." ”
Xia dreamed that Wu Qing might have been waiting for her at home, but because she was worried about her boyfriend, she had to nod and get into Chu Yunxuan's car.
After getting in the car, Xia Meng was still a little restrained, after all, it was his boss sitting next to him. But Chu Yunxuan was very polite, he carefully rolled down half of the car window, and also put some soft music in the car, so that he could adjust the atmosphere.
"You've been coming to work for a week, are you still used to it?" Chu Yunxuan spoke first, and the two of them sat without talking, and the atmosphere was too embarrassing.
"I'm quite used to the atmosphere of the company, the boss and colleagues are very nice. Xia Meng replied politely, and his words were also very measured.
"It's not easy to be alone outside, you can come to me if you have any difficulties in the future, I am the boss in the company, and everyone is friends outside. Chu Yunxuan said sincerely, he glanced at Xia Meng beside him, in fact, this was not a polite word, but his heartfelt words, he really wanted to take care of this girl.
Xia Meng was a little surprised when she heard this, but when she saw Chu Yunxuan's frank expression, she immediately understood his kindness. He is also really a good boss and is so kind to his employees.
Xia Meng was still a little red after a while, she nodded and said slightly shyly, "Thank you, boss." ”
