When she went to work the next day, Xia Ning found that Li Shi did not come.

The people in the company were talking in private, but Xia Ning pretended not to see it.

Who knows what tricks Li Shi wants to do, anyway, Li Shi's moves, she followed.

When she arrived at the office and sat down, Gu Ruoruo came in with a cup of Cappuccino and put Cappuccino on Xia Ning's table, Gu Ruoruo said, "Sister Xia, how about the coffee I brewed." ”

Xia Ning paused slightly: "Fool, I drink you every day when you make coffee, of course it's delicious." ”

Gu Ruoruo smiled mysteriously and said, "Today's ingredients, Sister Xia, you try it first." ”

Added?

Xia Ning wanted to ask, but after smelling the aroma of coffee, she decided to take a sip first.

The coffee is sweet, with a bit of mellow and slippery feeling......

Xia Ning's eyes lit up: "It's chocolate, right?"

Gu Ruoruo pouted: "It's not fun, I guessed it so quickly." ”

"Fool, I used to like to put chocolate in my coffee so that it would keep the sugar content. So you'll know as soon as you drink it. ”

"I see," Gu Ruoruo thought for a while and said, "Sister Xia, I heard that you had a rough time with Jing Si in the office a few days ago, right?"

Xia Ning's action of drinking coffee stopped: "Well, I slapped her." ”

The corners of Gu Ruoruo's eyebrows twitched: "Sister Xia, why are you beating people?"

Xia Ning put down the coffee and said straight to Gu Ruoruo: "Ruoruo, did you come to Xingshi to ask for sin?"

"I ...... Not really. "After being in contact with Xia Ning for so long, she knew that Xia Ning would not do it casually. If it was in the past, she would have come to ask for the crime in the first place, but now she still knows the situation first, and then says, "I just want to know the reason." Can Sister Xia tell me honestly?"

Xia Ning pondered for a while and said, "Ruoruo, sometimes things can't be explained in two or three sentences. I can only sue you for always blaming me for her affair with her husband. It was hard to say, so I did it. ”

Gu Ruoruo seemed to understand, and thought for a while before saying, "That's the case." But Sister Xia really has to pay attention. After all, there is really a suspicion. ”

Xia Ning glanced at her: "What is the suspicion, I am with my husband every day, how can I have time to care about other people's affairs." ”

These words reminded Gu Ruoruo, Gu Ruoruo nodded and said: "That's right, Commander Yi is so powerful and domineering, and he still checks the post every day, to be honest, Sister Xia, you don't have this opportunity." It's weird......"

"Ruoruo, I think if you want to go on, you can write detective novels. ”

"Yes, I would love to be a writer!"

The two were talking, when Xia Ning's mobile phone rang, and the caller ID was from the Justice Bureau.

Department of Justice!

Could it be Li Shi's business?

Thinking of this, Xia Ning waved her hand to Gu Ruoruo, Gu Ruoruo understood, turned around and walked out.

"Hey, hello ......"

"May I ask if you are Director Xia Ningxia?" a male voice rang on the other end of the phone.

"Well, yes, may I ask who you are?"

"Let me introduce myself first, I am the secretary next to Deputy Director An, and my surname is Li. Director Xia, in fact, this call is to ask for a long vacation for a woman named Li Shi under you. ”

Xia Ning raised her eyebrows: "Please take a long vacation?"

"Yes, Li Shi is a distant relative of our Deputy Director An, because there is an urgent matter at home and he has to leave for a long time, so he has no time to greet Director Xia, so I will call you first. ”

"Oh, how long will it take? There are no major problems in Li Shi's house, right?"

"Thank you Director Xia for your concern, there are no major problems in Li Shi's family, but I just have to go back and deal with the problem. There's not much time left for now. I have to ask Director Xia to help deal with the rules of the leave slip or something. Our Deputy Director An said that if I have time, I will explain this matter to you in person. ”

"There's no need for this, Deputy Director An has a lot of opportunities. I'm clear about the matter, and I'll handle the rest of the formalities. Thank you, Secretary Li, for your special notice. ”

"It's nothing, if Director Xia has any questions, you can find me by dialing this number. I've got something else to do here, so let's do it first. ”

After speaking, the phone hung up on the other end.

Xia Ning put down her phone and pondered what Secretary Li had just said.

Is there something going on at Li Shi's family?

Oh, I think it was Deputy Director An who made a move.

Yi Yunrui told her about this last night, Li Shi is Deputy Director An's 'lover', but Deputy Director An has a wife and children, and Li Shi will embarrass Deputy Director An if she does this. In order to maintain this positive image, Deputy Director An will definitely do his best to deal with this matter.

Therefore, just like Yi Yunrui and Gu Luan said, Li Shi, this woman, must not stay.

Yesterday, when Yi Yunrui was there, he saw Li Shi walking into the office to make trouble, and he used his mobile phone to send a text message to Deputy Director An, and she read the content of the text message.

The content is like this: Deputy Director, I have tasted your 'taste' in my wife's office, and I admire it very much!

Although this text message did not clearly say anything, I believe that Deputy Director An will definitely be able to find out what happened.

No, just the next day, Li Shi 'disappeared out of thin air'.

What happened to Li Shi, she didn't want to know.

Anyway, Li Shi is not here, and she has saved a lot of tongues.

Picking up the landline microphone, Xia Ning dialed Gu Ruoruo: "Please come over Fangzheng." ”

After a while, Fang Zheng was taken to the office by Gu Ruoruo.

Xia Ning drank coffee, looked at Fang Zheng, who was sitting opposite with a questioning face, and had a faint smile in her mouth.

"I don't know what Director Xia called me over?" Fang Zheng asked.

Xia Ning put down the coffee, approached him and said, "I invited you over this time because I wanted you to tell the truth." ”

Fang Zheng hesitated for a moment: "Did something happen?"

Xia Ning shook her head: "Don't worry, all I asked are about you." You just have to tell the truth. ”

"If it was my own problem, I would have told the truth. ”

Xia Ning took a copy of the article and opened it to look at it carefully: "You graduated from Harvard University with a degree in journalism, right?"

"Hmm. ”

"I've been in the company for seven years and I'm a veteran employee. Xia Ning said, clipped Wen Jiàn and said, "How long have you been an assistant by Director Guo's side?"

"It's been about five years. ”

"Five years...... That means you've been working at Time magazine for two years, and you've gone from an ordinary employee to an assistant director, right?"

Fang Zheng was a little embarrassed: "Well, that's right." But Director, I'm all on my own, I ......"

"I know, you don't have to explain. The employees who come to work for World Time Magazine are all working their own. What I just said was a compliment, Assistant Fang didn't have to think about it. ”

Fang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm sorry." ”

"You don't have to be so restrained in front of me, by the way, I heard that there was something at home a while ago, what is the matter?"

Fang Zheng slowed down and said: "Director Xia, the matter in this family should not be said at work, I will deal with it, Director Xia rest assured......"

"Assistant Fang, I want you to tell the truth, OK?"

Fang Zheng thought for a while, sighed softly and said, "My dad is gone, my mom is just my son." My mom had a stroke and went to the hospital a while ago, and I had to work and didn't have much time to take care of her. I've always been taken care of by relatives and friends, and in my heart, hey, ......"

Xia Ning frowned slightly: "Does Director Guo know about this?"

Director Guo ...... I think you should know something. But then again, in my mother's situation, I took leave for not one or two days, and there was a reason why the supervisor didn't approve it. I can understand that. ”

"And how is your mother, will she be hospitalized for a long time?"

"The doctor said that the situation had stabilized and that he would stay in the hospital for another week. ”

Xia Ning groaned, searched on the computer and said, "In the past seven years, you don't seem to have asked for much leave. I haven't taken any annual leave, have I?"

Fang Zheng nodded: "Yiqiē is still focused on work." ”

Fang Zheng's words made Xia Ning feel a little sad.

According to Fang Zheng's only son, all the financial burdens of the family are on his shoulders alone, and his mother is not in good health, to be honest, in this case, how dare he not be diligent.

Xia Ning thought for a while and said, "Assistant Fang, in fact, I called you to my office this time to ask for your opinion. I left my job some time ago, and I have only been back in the department for a few days. The entertainment department is very short of manpower, and there is a shortage of people around me, can you help me?"

Fang Zheng was stunned when he heard this: "Director, I don't understand what you mean. ”

"I mean, I'd like to hire an extra assistant, are you interested?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng was overjoyed, but soon sank down again, and did not speak for a while.

Seeing Fang Zheng like this, Xia Ning guessed the scruples in his heart.

Fang is Director Guo's assistant, and now she is doing this, it is obvious that she is 'robbing people', and Fang Zheng has made a 'sandwich cake' between her and Director Guo, if the matter is not handled well, Fang Zheng will become cannon fodder.

"What you think is, it's not good to be a person in Director Guo, right?"

Seeing that Xia Ning's words were to the point, Fang Zheng said directly: "Yes, director, I'm just a small staff." I am the only man in the family who makes money, and it is my honor that the director can look up to me. When I come out to work in society, everyone wants to have the opportunity to be promoted, but I think more about stability. I don't want my mother to worry, after all, she is not in good health and she is getting older. Majordomo...... Can you understand what I'm saying?"

Xia Ning smiled: "Of course I understand, don't worry, as long as you are willing to come over, I will arrange the affairs of Director Guo's side." You can rest assured that I promise in front of you that if there is a conflict, it will not be your business. I will not dismiss employees lightly, nor will I transfer employees lightly. What I'm asking for, as long as you work as hard as you did before. I'll take care of the rest. ”

Xia Ning's meaning was very clear, and Fang Zheng was overjoyed, but he was still a little hesitant. Seeing this, Xia Ning said: "I know it's very difficult for you to make a decision all of a sudden, in this way, you can reply to me tomorrow, is it okay?"

Fang Zheng nodded: "Okay, then I'll reply to the director tomorrow." ”

The two were talking, when Xia Ning's mobile phone rang, and it was Li Baoer calling.

Xia Ning pressed the answer button and said in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"Xiao Ningzi, have you read today's newspaper?"

Xia Ning mentioned it in her heart, and faintly felt that something was wrong: "What's wrong?" ZM
