One, two, three...... The phone was connected, and Lin Xi said very softly into the phone: "Hello, who is it?"

I said, "Hello, Lin Xi, I'm Shu Hua." ()”

She must have heard who I was, we'd talked so many times before. But she said, "Hello, who do you say you are?" ”

I calmed my emotions and said, "I'm Shu Hua, your former colleague. ”

Only then did she pretend to be suddenly enlightened and said, "Oh, it's Sister Shuhua, is there anything to find me?" ”

I said, "Yes, my current company is going to hold an event with you, I asked Director Chen and said that you are in charge, I think she should have told you." So, I'll call you and see if it's convenient to meet. ”

Chen Haoshuang must have told her, but she pretended not to know at all and said to me, "Oh, that's right." Which company are you working with now? We're working with a bit more than a few companies this time. ”

I smiled and said, "XX company, Director Chen said that you are in charge." So, do you see when it's convenient for you to meet?"

She said, "Oh, I don't know yet. Shall I contact you when I ask the director? I don't know much about it yet. ”

I knew she did it on purpose. I said, "Well, I'll go straight to you and find you, and then you can take some time for us to talk, and after this matter is settled, we can prepare here, you see?"

She still excused herself, and said, "Can I contact you when I ask the director?" Moreover, as you know, we work in a temporary office, and the environment is not very good. Besides, aren't you afraid of embarrassment when you come?"

Sure enough, it was a sharp-toothed girl, the last sentence was clearly a little ironic, strangely, I was not angry, nor annoyed, my heart was very calm, there was no ripple, I said: "I have communicated with Director Chen, this matter must be determined today, otherwise we will not have time to prepare." I'll come to your office in about 40 minutes, and if you don't have time, just assign someone to contact me, or I'll talk to Director Chen directly. ”

My tone was not warm at all, and I knew that she was deliberately delaying me in this way despite knowing how things were going, so I wouldn't admit defeat in the slightest.

When she heard me say this, her tone softened a little, and she said, "But, Shu Hua, if you come in the afternoon, I may not be in the office." Moreover, we have a lot of urgent matters to deal with, and this cooperation with your company is just a trivial matter. ”

The sarcasm in her words was still very heavy, was she hinting that I was getting worse and worse now? I said, "You still don't know the relationship between Director Chen and our manager, right?" Okay, if you think this is a trivial matter, then I will directly discuss it with Director Chen, and say that Lin Xi said that this is just a trivial matter and not worth her trouble, what do you think?"

When she heard me say this, she immediately became nervous, and she said, "Oh, there's no need to trouble the director for this kind of thing." I'll tell Ono to take care of the rest of the matter first, come over in the afternoon, I'll wait for you in the office. ”

I couldn't help but sneer, but my words were very polite, and I said, "Okay, then I'll go over and see you later." ”

After hanging up the phone, I went to Yan Bin's office to report my whereabouts, and I said, "Manager Yan, I plan to go to their side and discuss the specific activities with their person in charge." ”

He was actually holding a small mirror and was narcissistic, and he asked me without raising his head: "Hey, do you think I'm handsome today?"

I looked at him and saw that he was wearing a very new navy blue business suit, a white business shirt inside, his hair was combed back, and he looked shiny as if he had been greased, and I said, "It's quite a sissy, like a stylist." ”

He turned his head and glared at me, then put the mirror down, and said, "Country girl, no taste." What did you just say?"

I said, "I'd like to go out and talk to them about the partnership." ”

He let out a long "oh" and said, "Does that company have an old lover? ”

With that, he laughed exaggeratedly. I felt that there was mockery in that smile, and I said, "Manager Yan, please don't insult your subordinates wantonly and make jokes about your female subordinates when you go to work, okay?"

He froze for a moment, touched his mustache, and said, "Just kidding, go ahead, come back early." Go to the bathroom to make up your makeup and see that your makeup is light. ”

I said, "Okay, then I'll go out first." ”

He stopped me again, and he said, "Hey, do you know how to get there?"

I nodded, and I said, "Yes, I was there." ”

Suddenly, his voice became louder, and he said, "You go so actively, you can't really have a lover there, right?"

I turned around and glared at him fiercely, he made a straight face at me, and then said solemnly: "It is strictly forbidden to use the public for personal gain, Shu Hua." ”

I didn't bother to pay any attention to what he said, I went straight to the bathroom, carefully touched up my makeup in front of the mirror, and then went out to take the subway and then took a taxi to the place where I used to work.

To be exact, I had not even had time to move there to work before I had already gone back in disgrace. Now, when I go back, I am a different identity from the past.

It takes courage for a person with a disgraceful past to step into that old scene again and meet those old people.

I got to the door, took a few deep breaths, and walked inside. Obviously, many people in the company were very surprised by my arrival and cast strange glances at me, and one or two colleagues who had nodding their heads came to me and asked me what I was doing, and after I explained my intentions, a colleague from other departments took me to Lin Xi's office.

I knocked on the door, and the first thing I saw was Chen Xiaoye, she was very happy to see me, and quickly ran over to me and said, "Sister Shuhua, why are you here?"

Her smile was very sincere, and she did not hide her surprise and joy at my arrival, I took her hand and said, "Yes, I came to find your Director Lin for something." ”

She smiled, and I knew she must have heard something in my words. I waved my hand at Lin Xi, she sat in her seat and didn't stand up, but I clearly felt a trace of panic in her expression, she said, "Shu Hua, come, come and sit here." ”

I smiled and walked over to sit across from her. This temporary office is very simple, she and Chen Xiaoye have a separate desk, and she puts her desk in the best place by the window, like a supervisor. After I sat down, she said to Chen Xiaoye, "Xiaoye, go and pour a cup of tea for Shu Hua." “

Ono answered and then went, I took out all the materials I brought over, put them in front of her, I said: "Have you asked the director about the specific situation? This is the information I brought here, I have made a plan for what I want to prepare, you take a look at it first, you put forward opinions on the deficiencies, and I will revise it here, and we will set the plan when it is okay, and I will start to focus on preparation." “

She took it, flipped through it pretendedly, and then said a few questions, judging from the superficiality of her exposition of the problem, she did not have a deep understanding of the activity, and probably did not pay much attention to it. I was a little helpless, and I said, "Then do you see what else is lacking?"

At this time, Chen Xiaoye came in, she hurriedly called Chen Xiaoye over, and then said, "Xiaoye, you can negotiate with Shu Hua about this matter, I don't care." I've got other things to do, you see?"

Chen Xiaoye smiled and said "Okay", so I got up, sat down with Chen Xiaoye with the information and began to communicate. Sure enough, as I expected, Lin Xi was simply a hands-off shopkeeper, and she directly gave Chen Xiaoye a lot of things that Chen Haoshuang explained to her. Chen Xiaoye has a good grasp of the process and details of the activity, and she is very detailed and comprehensive, she has explained the problems I mentioned one by one, and we have modified some inappropriate places together, I was surprised, I found that this girl's ability to do things is really strong, and she communicates with half the effort.

It only took us an hour to discuss the event, I got up to say goodbye, Chen Xiaoye insisted on sending me downstairs, she looked at me reluctantly and said, "Sister Shuhua, can we still meet in private in the future?"

I nodded, and I said, "I'm all here, you can come to me when you have time." ”

She smiled innocently and said, "Well, I will." We also had several chances to meet at this event, and there are a lot of professional things that I would love to ask you. Now we're together again. ”

I was about to speak, when suddenly a male voice came from behind: "Ono, who are you with?"

This voice is very familiar, and you know that it is Wang Bin as soon as you hear it. I turned my head, and he was a little surprised at first sight, but then he smiled, and he said, "Yo, Shu Hua, I don't know you anymore." Are you coming back to play?"

I smiled too, and I said, "I'll come back and have something to discuss." That's it. ”

He said, "Ah, I just got off work, I haven't eaten, come on, I'll invite you to dinner, let's take my car to the city together." ”

I shook my head and I said, "It's too late, let's go another day, I still have to catch the car, it's too late and there is no car." ”

He looked at his watch, and then said, "Now that the last one has left, you take my car, I'll send you there, Ono will go with you, I'll take you to dinner." ”

Chen Xiaoye said politely: "What's so embarrassing?"

But I could clearly see the expectation in her eyes. Also, for recent college graduates, it is a luxury to be able to eat a big meal for free. I was suddenly moved with compassion, and I said, "That's fine, then you can take me to the city, and I'll treat you to dinner." ”

Wang Bin waved his hand, and then said, "Then you all come with me, I can still afford a meal." I'll park over there, come with me. ”
