Chapter 68: Christmas Eve

Seeing that tomorrow is Christmas Eve, Qu Yao is not without reason to please Min Ziwen so much, the company's convention, Christmas Eve, Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day or something all work overtime, but the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chongyang Festival, Qixi Festival will have a half-day holiday and a day off, it is said to be the old tradition of the company, Qiao Twilight did not mean to change.

But young people, after all, still like Western festivals, Christmas Eve is not worthy of such a beautiful holiday?

So Qu Yao wanted to have a good relationship with Min Ziwen, and she could happily take leave to go out to accompany her boyfriend at a critical time, right?

"Nothing, thank you for the coffee. Min Ziwen didn't understand Qu Yao's plans, she also knew that Qu Yao had a boyfriend who had been in love for many years, and she had been dragging out not getting married because the other party felt that Qu Yao's work was not close to people, and she had always refused to settle down with her.

According to Min Ziwen's opinion, the other party is simply an excuse, maybe the Jinwu Zangjiao outside is waiting for an opportunity to kick Qu Yao Shuangsu and fly away, but she is a colleague, it is really difficult to say it directly, so she simply won't say it.

Qu Yao asked her to ask for leave if she wanted to ask for leave, and there would really be a day when she couldn't complain about the company.

"Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, and I've made an appointment with my boyfriend for a romantic dinner, right?"

Thinking about what she didn't have, Min Ziwen smiled, without the meaning of embarrassment.

"Okay, it's the old routine, don't worry, Mr. Qiao has me there!"

When Qu Yao said "Thank you, dear" sweetly, and went out, Min Ziwen's smiling face also pulled down.

She was quick to speak just now, and then she remembered that this time was different from the past, she was no longer Qiao Twilight's personal assistant, and she didn't have such a big privilege.

Xu Ruoou looked at Min Ziwen who came upstairs for the sixth time today to deliver the documents with some strange eyes, and he didn't know what was going on.

Didn't Min Ziwen usually hate to come to give her documents? Even if she came, she didn't look at her, knocked on the door and entered the office directly, did she take the wrong medicine today?

But let her take the initiative to ask Min Ziwen about her intentions, Xu Ruoou can't do it, she doesn't have a hobby of hot face stickers, she knows that Min Ziwen doesn't look down on her and insists on going up, and someone is just there, just the two of them here, and they don't need to act.

"Thank you, Assistant Min, I'll sort it and send it to the office, I'm sorry for you. ”

As usual, it was polite words, the corners of Xu Ruoou's lips hooked up a polite smile with just the right arc, and he took Min Ziwen's documents with both hands, and the surface etiquette was not leaky.

"Well, trouble. ”

Min Ziwen kept her face as usual, as if Xu Ruoou owed her millions.

Xu Ruoou was accustomed to it, smiled slightly, and didn't sit down, looking at her in a daze.

Min Ziwen's body stiffened, her face was not very good, she looked like she had something to say, Xu Ruoou waited, but she didn't wait, Min Ziwen just coughed twice and left.

Something is wrong, something is very wrong.

Xu Ruoou could complain about everyone, and he didn't want to go to Qiao Twilight, so he happened to see Jiang Jiu'er posting a circle of friends, and his eyes lit up and sent her a message.

"Jiu'er Jiu'er, help me analyze, a person who hates me has been coming to me and wants to stop talking, guess what she wants to do?"

Jiang Jiu'er was probably really not busy, and quickly replied a lot.

"What kind of annoyance? How much does it hate it? Is there a huge disparity between the two of you? Does she have a request for you?"

The previous ones were selectively skipped by Xu Ruoou and stopped at the last sentence, do you want her?

Just thinking about it, Min Ziwen stepped on high heels and came again, Xu Ruoou raised her eyebrows, she could confirm that Min Ziwen was definitely looking for her, and she had only been gone for a few minutes!

"Assistant Min might as well say it directly, otherwise Mr. Qiao will know about it so much, and it should be said that I am not doing well. ”

Xu Ruoou wanted to say, "You don't look like you work hard at all, be careful of being scolded by the boss", but when she thought that the boss was Qiao Dusk, she couldn't say anything, so she was going to be scolded instead.

A trace of annoyance quickly crossed Min Ziwen's face, and there was a suspicious flush on her fair cheeks.

Xu Ruoou was shocked, and always felt that he had to think about the not very good side, but fortunately, Min Ziwen corrected it in time, saying that Qu Yao was going to take leave, which was a common practice every year.

"Okay, I know, I'll tell Mr. Qiao. ”

Xu Ruoou didn't know what the operation process was in the past, but he wanted to come to Min Ziwen instead of Qu Yao, probably because Qu Yao ignored her as before, and treated Min Ziwen as Qiao Twilight's celebrity assistant.

It's just a leave, Xu Ruoou doesn't care, she believes that every year Qiao Dushi will agree and doesn't care, but Qu Yao didn't come to her and didn't come to Qiao Dusk, but instead went to find Min Ziwen, who was transferred from her original post, which made it difficult for Xu Ruoou to accept.

Seeing Min Ziwen leave, Xu Ruoou was a little angry, and casually threw the document on the table, the earth-shattering noise was not counted, and the sound was also very loud.

Not only was she angry that Qu Yao didn't take her seriously, but she was also angry that she was too kind just now, but she wasn't angry at all, and she made Min Ziwen unscathed and made herself half angry.

"Mr. Qiao, this is the document that Assistant Min just sent, please take a look. ”

Xu Ruoou carried the pile of documents sent by Min Ziwen into Qiao Dusk's office, and said casually as if unintentionally.

"In addition, Assistant Min asked me to tell you that Assistant Group A Team Leader Qu Yao will ask for leave tomorrow night, saying that it is an annual practice. I'm going to take a leave of absence tomorrow night, and I've already made an appointment with a friend. ”

Xu Ruoou wasn't worried that Qiao Dushi would not allow her leave, and as for Qu Yao's permission, she didn't care, and she didn't let her ask for it, what does it have to do with her?

"The company stipulates that only one person in the assistant team can ask for leave at a time. ”

Qiao Twilight lowered her head and quickly signed her name on a document, and said indifferently and ruthlessly.

The meaning is self-evident, she and Qu Yao, only one of them can ask for leave.

"Okay, I'll tell Assistant Min. ”

Xu Ruoou could see that Qiao Twilight was trying to embarrass her, she couldn't help but be a little angry, obviously he was the one who was indiscriminate, why did she seem to be the one who made the mistake now?

The more he thought about it, the more sad he became, Xu Ruoou turned around and left, and when he went out, he called Min Ziwen and said Qiao Dushi's original words, every extra word was not missing, even the tone that was not half emotional, and hung up the phone without waiting for Min Ziwen to speak.

A few minutes later, Min Ziwen appeared in front of Xu Ruoou for the eighth time, Xu Ruoou was expressionless and didn't even bother to follow the basic etiquette, she would be angry, and Qiao Twilight would be angry with all the people who appeared in front of her.

"Assistant Xu, I want to know who else in the assistant office wants to take leave. ”

Min Ziwen's tone was not very good, it was simply a tone of questioning.

Xu Ruoou was originally on the verge of exploding, and Min Ziwen's tone was simply a spark that ignited the dynamite barrel, instantly igniting all of Xu Ruoou's temper.

"It's me who wants to ask for leave, what's the matter, I have to ask Assistant Min for approval first, right?"

Min Ziwen frowned, her hands propped up on Xu Ruoou's desktop, and the aura of years of hard work in the shopping mall was fully open, which was very scary.

"But Qu Yao takes leave every year on this day, she has a very important date, Assistant Xu, can you not be unreasonable?"

"I'm being vexatious? Assistant Min, are you kidding?"

Not to be outdone, Xu Ruoou looked at him fearlessly, his eyes mocking.

"Since the day I came to the company, no one wants to get along with me, how do I know that every Christmas Eve is her Qu Yao's holiday alone?

Xu Ruoou said it reasonably, Min Ziwen was dumbfounded for a while, and finally realized what Xu Ruoou was angry about.

"OK, I admit that I didn't do enough to do this, but tomorrow night's holiday is really important to Qu Yao. ”

said that she was wrong, but from her expression to her tone to her request, Min Ziwen didn't apologize at all.

Xu Ruoou sneered, and couldn't help but want to knock on the office door and ask Qiao Twilight what kind of rights he usually gave Min Ziwen to make her so self-righteous.

"Assistant Min, how do you know that my appointment schedule is not important, and how do you know that I will have a chance to make amends after tomorrow night?"

"Anyway, you're also dating Mr. Qiao, and Mr. Qiao won't let you work overtime in the company!"

Min Ziwen said this with a strong sense of vinegar, and said it when she didn't realize it, and she was a little disgusted.

"Heh, Assistant Min is so good at guessing, what kind of assistant should he be, it's better to write reasoning!"

Xu Ruoou leaned back in the chair, clasped his hands on his chest, and looked at Min Ziwen mockingly, as if he was looking at a clown.

"It's okay, anyway, this is what Mr. Qiao said, who will rest and let Team Leader Qu come up, and explain the reason for taking leave in front of Mr. Qiao?"

Xu Ruoou just provoked trouble because she was ignored, she didn't think about whether Qu Yao's reason for asking for leave was reasonable, in her opinion, every year on this day was approved, and others did not complain, then Qu Yao must have a reason to go.

Just like Min Ziwen said, her vacation doesn't have to occupy the place of leave, and when she turns around and dresses up with Qiao Dusk, she can sneak out and go on a date with Jiang Jiu'er.

But what she didn't know was that in previous years, Min Ziwen would find different reasons to intercede for Qu Yao, so Qu Yao could enjoy the holiday, so Qu Yao could tell the truth, there would be no holiday at all.

However, looking at Min Ziwen's unpredictable face, Xu Ruoou knew, and then he was a little embarrassed.

The two of them were at a stalemate, but Qiao Twilight suddenly came out, and frowned when she saw the two of them blushing.

"What are you doing?"

"It's nothing, I have a little disagreement with Assistant Min. ”

Afraid that Min Ziwen would say something that shouldn't be said, Xu Ruoou took the first step and spread his hands.

"Oh yes, I won't ask for leave tomorrow night, let Qu Yao give the holiday. ”

I thought it would be okay like this, but who knew that Qiao Dushi's brows were furrowed even deeper, and even Min Ziwen didn't mean to be grateful.

Xu Ruoou's heart is congested, it's really difficult to be a good person!

The next day on Christmas Eve, Xu Ruoou still slipped away, just as she thought about it, after she went home, she just mentioned that she had already made an appointment with Jiang Jiu'er on Christmas Eve, and Qiao Twilight let her go, and when she got up in the morning, Qiao Twilight had already gone to the company.

"Mommy, can I come with you?"

Qiao Anzhe's longing little eyes made Xu Ruoou really can't bear to refuse, but after all, dating is not her alone, she calmed Qiao Anzhe and arrested Jiang Jiu'er in her sleep.

Hearing that there is one more child, Jiang Jiu'er has no opinion, and there is still a little expectation when he listens?

Xu Ruoou was taken aback by his thoughts, but quickly calmed down and conveyed the good news to Qiao Anzhe's children.

Because it was Christmas Eve, most of the festive atmosphere and surprises were left at night, and they didn't rush out to play in the daytime, and the appointment time was 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

At noon, it began to snow in Haicheng, and it was still heavy snow, fluttering, and after a while, the ground was completely white, Qiao Anzhe snuggled in Xu Ruoou's arms, and the two sat together on the rocking chair by the floor-to-ceiling window, swaying.

"Mommy, it's so snowy!"

Xu Ruoou is accustomed to it, Haicheng spends these two days in the snow every Christmas, whether it is a businessman, or a friend or couple who have made an appointment to meet on this day, they can treat it calmly.

"It's okay, by the time we're leaving, the snow will be light. ”

By the time they were ready to set off, the snow was already light, and there was still half a sun looming in the sky, and the small snowflakes were falling slowly in the sky, and they would soon melt when they fell on people's shoulders.

"Mommy, you're so good!"

Qiao Anzhe's little admiration made Xu Ruoou very useful.

However, as soon as they got into the car, Joe Twilight got out of the car and went home, and without saying a word, Joan Zhe got out of the car.

"Mr. Joe?"

Xu Ruoou was a little dissatisfied but patient, mainly because she couldn't bear to see Qiao Anzhe's lost little eyes for a moment.

"An Zhe and I have other arrangements, you and Miss Jiang have a good time. ”

Qiao Twilight didn't mean to explain specifically, and Qiao Anzhe also waved his hand to Xu Ruoou with gloomy eyebrows after listening to his words, and didn't refute it, obviously he knew it a long time ago.

"Okay, then I'll go first, happy Christmas Eve, I'll go back to the Xu family's old house in the evening. ”

This is also what Xu Ruoou had said to Qiao Twilight before, and Qiao Twilight was not only not angry when she heard it, but even felt relieved.

Combined with Qiao Anzhe's performance, Xu Ruoou guessed that the father and son might be going to see Qiao Anzhe's biological mother.

It was also at this time that Xu Ruoou discovered that she had never heard him mention Qiao Anzhe's mother after getting along with Qiao Dushi for so long, and even Qiao Anzhe himself had never mentioned it.

Soon Xu Ruoou left these things behind, because she had already seen Jiang Jiu'er waiting on the side of the road, Qiao Anzhe's mother or something, to her was just a non-existent person, what was there to worry about?

In the end, she still couldn't help it, and complained to Jiang Jiu'er about the abnormality of Qiao Dusk's father and son.

Who knew that Jiang Jiu'er patted her on the shoulder, looking old-fashioned.

"Xiao Ou, listen to me, although there are many divorced families, but the stepmother is really not good, you have to think clearly!"

"I still have to think about something, I've got my certificate. ”

Xu Ruoou took a big sip of milk tea, and wanted to roll his eyes but held back.

"Well, that's right. ”

Jiang Jiu'er also took a big sip of milk tea and sighed.

Today, in addition to Christmas Eve, it is also the day when Jiang Jiu'er makes up for Xu Ruoou's birthday, Xu Ruoou doesn't want Jiang Jiu'er to add to the blockage, so he didn't say how Xu Jiaru came out on his birthday.

"Hey Xiaoou, look at that couple, it's so eye-catching!"

Looking at Jiang Jiu'er's hand, it was indeed a high-value couple, the woman looked like she was in her early twenties and dressed very cutely, and she was also petite and exquisite, and the man was a very mature uncle, looking more than thirty.

If you want Xu Ruoou to say it, she will probably say that she is an uncle and a niece, but in the eyes of Jiang Jiu'er, who loves Lori, this is a living uncle Lori.

"Tut-tut, the little girl is really rich, the LO skirt on her body is a proper Japanese brand, more than 6,000 yuan!"

Hearing Jiang Jiu'er say this, Xu Ruoou didn't have any doubts at all, she didn't know much about lo Niang culture, but Jiang Jiu'er, who had a Lori heart, was a senior lo girl, she said that it was a genuine Japanese brand, so it must be.

"Okay, don't look at it, I'll buy it for you if you want to!"

Xu Ruoou, who has already received his salary in advance, was not false when he said this, how to say that he is also a money-making person, what happened to a set of more than 6,000 lo skirts, 60,000 yuan can also be bought!

"Huh, Xiaoou, look at that woman over there!"

Jiang Jiu'er was just about to express her gratitude when she saw a woman not far behind the couple, and the woman covered herself tightly, revealing only a pair of eyes with black-rimmed glasses, staring at the couple.

"Don't watch it, it's another bloody drama!"

Xu Ruoou just glanced at it and lost interest, pulling Jiang Jiu'er to leave.

As a result, Jiang Jiu'er didn't pull it, but let her see the woman whose scarf fell off and revealed her whole face, that person was obviously Qu Yao who took leave to go on a date today.

"Xiaoou, aren't you leaving?"

This time, Jiang Jiu'er couldn't pull Xu Ruoou, and following Xu Ruoou's line of sight, she also saw Qu Yao, and couldn't help but be even more surprised.

"Wow, this young lady is so beautiful, hey, this man is not so good-looking, right?"

"She's my colleague, Qu Yao. ”

When the two of them were talking, the couple didn't realize that they were being followed, and continued to wander around sweetly, and Qu Yao also followed not far behind him to hide around.

Xu Ruoou thought about it and whispered a few words to Jiang Jiu'er, Jiang Jiu'er frowned at first, and then laughed again.

"Hello sir, we're doing a couple street interview here, can you interview you and your girlfriend for a few questions?"

Naturally, it was Jiang Jiu'er who stopped the man, and she wore a baseball cap and a voice recorder in her hand, which looked quite like that at first glance.

"You ask. ”

……

A few minutes later, Jiang Jiu'er returned to Xu Ruoou with a voice recorder and smiled proudly.

"Report to the captain, successfully complete the mission, please instruct!"

Xu Ruoou's plan is to let Jiang Jiu'er pretend to be a self-media interviewer on the street to interview the couple and then record it, which will be recorded, Xu Ruoou didn't want to come forward, so he asked Jiang Jiu'er, who he didn't know, to give the recording to Qu Yao.

"By the way, I would like to persuade her, whether she listens or not, she actually works very hard. ”

Xu Ruoou added another sentence, quite a little emotional or sympathetic. It was precisely because he did this out of sympathy that he was reluctant to see Qu Yao in person, which would only embarrass both of them.

What she didn't know was that Qu Yao later followed Jiang Jiu'er for a while, and saw Jiang Jiu'er and her holding hands and being intimate.

"Oh yes, I heard that Xu Jiaru went to a charity auction in Hong Kong City before and lost an adult, is it really fake?"

During the meal, Jiang Jiu'er talked about it, and suddenly talked about Xu Jiaru.

Xu Ruoou nodded unchanged and told him all about the situation at that time.

"I'll go, Xu Jiaru is really indescribable, how can you say that sentence? People don't want to be invincible in the world!"

Jiang Jiu'er swallowed the fish meat in her mouth with difficulty, and her face was very bad.

"But then again, they are all heirs of the Xu family, why can't she go now?"

Jiang Jiu'er was really curious, Xu Ruoou sighed, and told Qiao Dusk's analysis that day. After hearing this, Jiang Jiu'er was also stunned, and patted her shoulder silently.

"It's going to be fine, the old doesn't go and the new doesn't come, who knows if God has given Uncle Xu a new opportunity?"

Xu Ruoou has been sad and sad about this matter, Qiao Twilight will not comfort her, and she pretends to be sensible in front of her parents, this is the first time that someone has come to comfort her.

also gave her a new revelation, whether to let Xu's father start from scratch, she believes that Xu's father was able to inherit the family business at the beginning, and now he can start from scratch, there is nothing he can't do.

After Christmas Eve, everything was back on track, Xu Ruoou was woken up by Qiao Twilight early in the morning and looked at him with some complaint.

"Why are you so cruel when I go home?"

"You've only taken one day off, Assistant Xu!"

Qiao Dusk bit the last three words, making Xu Ruoou more and more dissatisfied. She wouldn't dare to agree to be a assistant, if she was still a designer, she could live a dream of sleeping until she woke up naturally, instead of working from 9 to 5 like now.

Arriving at the company with a sleepy face, Xu Ruoou was shocked by the contents on his table, a cup of coffee and a breakfast, and fresh fruits cut into a plate.

"Company benefits?"

Xu Ruoou looked up at Qiao Twilight, who looked down at her in the same confusion, and then the two of them looked at the things on the table together.

"So when did our company hire an excellent snail girl?"

After checking carefully, he didn't see any tips like sticky notes, Xu Ruoou hooked his lips and quipped.

"How do you know it's not Mr. Tianluo?"

Qiao Twilight's face was not very good, and even her words smelled of lemon.

"Alas, Mr. Qiao, don't you think that someone in the company is eating lemons?"

Saying that, Xu Ruoou had already opened the lunch box containing the fruit and threw an orange into his mouth.

"I added material in my heart, how did you live so big?"

Qiao Twilight frowned, trying to stop it too late, so she was a little angry.

"It's just a piece of food, what can you add? You don't have to be so careful, okay? Maybe someone is so impressed by my charm that they don't dare to express it to their face?"
