Chapter 11 Eating Porridge
When Jesse entered the office, Wen Yang was sending emails to friends in the United States, and before returning to China, he had worked as an investment manager in a well-known investment company, and his business ability and performance contribution were second to none.
Now the friend he sent the email to was his top boss when he joined the company, and he was promoted to VP before Wen Yang was promoted, and he has always been very fond of Wen Yang.
"You know Danny emailed me out of the blue last night that he had left his job to start his own company and wanted to invite me as a partner. Wen Yang took the coffee handed by Jesse, took a sip and put it down.
"He doesn't know where you're doing, but Danny is a nice guy and very good at work. Do you remember what he said to us when he invited us to a party at his house on the day he was promoted? I thought he was going to go out on his own. Jesse sat down across from Wen Yang and handed him three documents to sign.
Wen Yang took the report and said while reading it: "Yes, he is such an ambitious person, he will never be satisfied with hiding under other people's roofs to live." ”
"Evan, you're one of those people too. Jesse said solemnly. Wen Yang looked up at her, he still remembered that when she worked in the United States, her complexion was a beautiful wheat color, and now that she has only returned to China for a year and a half, her skin seems to have turned a little whiter, and her makeup has also changed.
What remained unchanged was her ambitious eyes, but this made Wen Yang very confused, thinking that he was not ready to bring her back when he resigned, but she knew that she was going back to China and ran to her to ask to come back together.
Wen Yang knew a little bit of her thoughts, but he never pierced it. Jesse is a good assistant, although it is a waste for her to stay by his side with her current position, Wen Yang has also thought about arranging her to a suitable place, but the timing has not been right, and Jesse has not mentioned the request to change positions, so he will not mention it for the time being.
"Am I going to attend Zhou Feng's dinner tonight?" Wen Yang didn't continue the topic of Fang Cai, and instead asked about the itinerary.
"Yes, at seven o'clock in the evening, in Tyumen. Jesse replied as well, putting the unfinished words away.
"You won't go with me today, fly to Xi'an and meet the group of designers in the evening, they will also arrive tonight, right?" Wen Yang signed the three documents and handed them to Jesse, Jesse took the documents and got up and nodded, and said with some puzzlement: "Why do you suddenly want me to go first?
"The project of the film and television city is too important, and I am worried that the person in charge of Xi'an will not be well received, and it is always bad if he does something strange. You just go first, it's hard for you. The gentleness in the last sentence made Jesse purse her lips and smile, she hugged the document and said, "Then I know, I'll take care of the matter at hand and leave." Tomorrow I will remind you to leave half an hour in advance, and I will also let Aunt Han pack your toiletries and clothes, and you can go directly to the airport tomorrow. But I'm leaving, who's going to accompany you to dinner tonight?"
"Hmm... Yang Meng, forget it, she can't do it now. That intern named Deng Qing can, you go out and let her come to see me. ”
"Deng Qing? She hasn't graduated yet, and she hasn't had an internship for long, so I'm worried that she won't be able to cope with this situation. ”
"It's okay, it's not a formal banquet anyway, it's nothing more than flattery and mutual flattery. Besides, she was supposed to take over part of Yang Meng's work, this is her job, so don't worry too much. ”
"Alright, I'll go right away. Jesse turned to go out, Wen Yang looked at her slender back, capable professional attire, and suddenly thought of the girl standing on the rooftop holding her mobile phone and crying.
When Jesse informed Deng Qing's boss that he wanted to see her, she was planning Wen Yang's itinerary, knowing that he would be on a business trip to Xi'an tomorrow and would not be back until next Tuesday.
Jesse didn't notice when she approached her, and she didn't look up from her computer until she heard someone call out to her.
"Mr. Wen asked you to go to his office. Jesse said briefly.
"Huh, what's the matter?" Deng Qing was a little confused.
"You'll find out when you go. Jesse's face was expressionless, Deng Qing glanced at Yang Meng who was sitting next to him, and nervously picked up the broken hair in his ear.
"Okay, I'll go right away. Deng Qing hurriedly got up, brushed his clothes, and slowly walked inside.
"Please come in. After the knock on the door, there was a familiar sound, Deng Qing lowered his head slightly and walked to a stop two or three steps away from Wen Yang's desk.
He was reading the documents again, but today's curtains were all shrunk, and the blue and white sky outside became his background, which was exceptionally open and quiet.
"Mr. Wen, you are looking for me. Deng Qing asked tentatively, but Wen Yang didn't reply, and kept looking at the documents in his hand.
Deng Qing saw that he didn't speak, and looked at him boldly, wanting to overlap him with reality in the photo. He combed his hair in a three-and-seven-minute hairstyle, and left a small tuft of bangs in front of his left forehead to cover his eyebrows.
At this time, he looked down at the document, and could only see the bangs and his straight and slightly upturned nose, his face was broad and youthful, which was the kind of appearance that Deng Qing liked.
"Have you seen enough?" Wen Yang said suddenly, Deng Qing hurriedly retracted his gaze, Wen Yang raised his head and continued: "I have a dinner to take you there tonight, do you have something to do at night?"
"No, Mr. Wen. I just don't know what time it will be? I'll see if I can get back to school. ”
"From seven o'clock, you can be reimbursed for taking a taxi at night. Wen Yang looked at Deng Qing expressionlessly, his eyes were shaped like almonds, a double eyelid of moderate width was drawn on his eyelids, and his eyes were dark and bright.
Deng Qing didn't know why he didn't have any smile or expression every time he looked at himself, those eyes seemed to see through himself, which made people panic.
"You get out. ”
"Good. The same conversation ended, and Deng Qing turned slowly, she could always feel those eyes behind her, even when the door was closed.
When Yang Meng and the others greeted Deng Qing one by one and left, Deng Qing smiled and watched them leave, and suddenly felt very lost.
With two hours to go before dinner, she didn't know what to do, and she didn't want to do the work at hand after a day of hard work, but she couldn't rest in the office.
Deng Qing held his forehead with his hands and was sad, and suddenly thought that he hadn't told Li Xue that they were going back to the dormitory later tonight, so he hurriedly took his mobile phone to send a message.
The first to reply to the message was Sihan, and she asked if she wanted to tell the dormitory manager to stay at the door, so as not to come back too late and close the door of the dormitory.
Deng Qing thought that she was right, the school has a rule that the dormitory will close at eleven o'clock at night, and the door is not allowed to open without accidents, and if you want to open the door, you must contact the counselor to explain the situation first.
Deng Qing replied to Sihan and asked her to go to the aunt in charge of the dormitory to talk about it, and she wanted to find a house as soon as possible, otherwise it would be troublesome to keep doing this.
Before Sihan could reply, Li Xue also replied to the message in the group, saying that it was not safe for her to come back at night to take a taxi, and if it was too late, she would simply go to the hotel for one night.
Deng Qing thought about it, he had seen such news before, and the girl was murdered alone outside at night.
When Deng Qing was gossiping with everyone in the group, Jesse came over with his bag, knocked on the prominent table at the front desk and said, "Deng Qing." This is the first time Deng Qing has heard Jesse call her name, there is always an indescribable weirdness, she quickly put away her mobile phone and said, "Jesse, is there something wrong?"
"I'm leaving, the blue part of this one is for sobering medicine, and the red part is for stomach medicine. Now there are two hours before eating, you can go and ask Mr. Wen if you want to eat something, otherwise your stomach will be uncomfortable until seven o'clock. Jesse's tone of voice was cold, no wonder Zhou Siyuan said that she was an iceberg beauty, and she was indeed covered with cold air, which made Deng Qing think of Wen Yang who talked to him every time.
"Okay, I got it. Deng Qing took the square pill box and smiled at Jesse.
"Also, if Mr. Wen is drunk, you'd better accompany him home before going back to school. He has only one aunt at home, Uncle Chen, that is, Mr. Wen's driver is also relatively old, I'm afraid he won't be able to take care of him, so you'd better go back with him. Deng Qing nodded slowly after listening, Jesse stared at her, always a little unable to let go, but he had another task, moved his lips but left without saying anything after all.
As soon as Jesse left, only Deng Qing and Wen Yang were left in the entire office on the 32nd floor, Deng Qing turned his head to look at the depths of the corridor, and pricked up his ears to listen to the sound of Wen Yang's office.
Only the occasional noise from the drinking machine could be heard, and the room over there was as quiet as if no one was there.
Deng Qing thought of Jesse's instructions, although he was a little reluctant but had no choice, so he had to get up and walk to the office.
Deng Qing wondered if she wanted to go in, and she felt a little uncomfortable at the thought of seeing Wen Yang's cold face.
But it's not good if you don't go in and don't ask, if he has a stomachache after a while, he will become a sinner for the ages.
Gritting her teeth, Deng Qing decided to push the door, her hand was just about to knock on the door, Wen Yang's voice came from inside: "Come in."
Deng Qing suspected that Wen Yang had clairvoyance and ears, and he knew what he was doing, but she still pretended to be happy and pushed the door in and asked, "Mr. Wen, there are still two hours to go, do you want to eat something first?" As soon as she spoke, her stomach screamed.
Deng Qing felt very embarrassed, especially the entire office room was very quiet, and the sound of her stomach screaming expanded in this infinitely quiet space, attracting Wen Yang's attention.
Deng Qing lowered his head and touched his stomach, and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Wen, I'm a little hungry." ”
"Then you go get something to eat, and by the way, help me pack a porridge. ”
"Which porridge do you want to eat?"
"There is porridge in the company's canteen, you just buy one. ”
"Okay, I'll go right away. After Deng Qing finished speaking, he left the office as if he was running away, not seeing Wen Yang's smile behind her.
Deng Qing went to the cafeteria but didn't know what to eat, and felt that eating porridge was the best choice for eating and drinking at night.
So when he went to the stall selling porridge to order, he suddenly found that Wen Yang only told him to eat porridge, but he didn't say what porridge he wanted to eat, so he had to order a porridge with preserved eggs and lean meat according to his taste.
By the time the porridge was ready, twenty minutes had passed when she returned to the office, and Deng Qing hurriedly took the porridge and walked to Wenyang's office.
She knocked lightly, but after a moment she didn't hear a familiar voice, and knocked again, but no one answered.
Deng Qing felt strange, so he pushed the door in with the porridge, only to see Wen Yang lying on the sofa on the right side, curled up and sleeping.
Deng Qing didn't dare to walk over, she was worried that she would make a noise to him, so she had to stand in place and look at Wen Yang. Wen Yang slept like a child, which made Deng Qing feel very interesting, just staring at his face like that, not daring to make any sound.
