Lin Ruoxi leaned back in the chair and closed her eyes, carefully feeling the technique and position of Mo Fan's massage.

When doing head massage, physiotherapists mostly press and knead, or tap with the palm and palm edge, supplemented by pinching, pecking and other techniques. Mo Fan's massage method is mainly based on percussion, and he does not use fingertips or palms, but the fingertips of the first two knuckles.

Although Lin Ruoxi couldn't see how Mo Fan massaged, he could judge by the feeling of his head. She simulated Mo Fan's technique in her heart, silently remembering the position of the massage.

The movement of Mo Fan's fingers is extremely rhythmic, like playing music on the piano, and the force used is not light, but it does not make people feel uncomfortable. In addition to the effect of rejuvenating qi and blood, his massage method is more important to communicate with the nervous system of the brain through the slight vibration of the skull, which is somewhat similar to the principle of hypnosis.

After a while, Lin Ruoxi suddenly said, "Are you playing "The Girl's Prayer"?"

Mo Fan was surprised, and thought to himself, just knocked on your head, and there was no melody, you can hear this? ”

Lin Ruoxi said "um" and didn't speak again.

Mo Fan changed the rhythm in his hand, and turned his body to look at Lin Ruoxi's side face. I saw that her eyelashes twitched a few times, and her eyebrows were slightly sunken, as if she was thinking about something, obviously she didn't know this tune. Mo Fan smiled silently, thinking, of course you haven't heard of this "Autumn Whisper".

After more than twenty minutes, Lin Ruoxi's breathing suddenly became a little short. Mo Fan looked at her face and saw that the eyeballs under her eyelids were swaying from side to side, knowing that she had entered a state of amorphous sleep, so the rhythm of her hands became gentler. After about five minutes, Lin Ruoxi's breathing became calmer, and he didn't know what kind of dream he had just now.

Mo Fan stopped massaging, rubbed his somewhat sore arm, and took off his coat from the hanger and covered Lin Ruoxi's body. Seeing her long hair hanging down behind the chair, I couldn't help but think about it, coiled her hair up as it was, and took the hairpin on the table to hairpin for her. After I got it right, I appreciated it again, and it was no different from before, and I couldn't help but be very satisfied.

I looked at the time on the computer, and it was already twelve and three quarters. I thought to myself, giving Lin Ruoxi a sleep massage is much easier than letting her mother fall asleep. But the lunch break is already short, and this time I sacrificed a lot of my sleep time, how can Liang Wenbo's kid thank me?

He yawned and sat down on the couch, leaning over and dozing. As soon as he fell asleep in a daze, he heard a knock at the door, so he sat up straight and said, "Please come in." ”

The person who came in was Panzi. She saw Lin Ruoxi sitting behind Mo Fan's desk, sleeping heavily with clothes on her body, she couldn't help but be stunned, looked at Mo Fan and said, "Director Mo, Mr. Lin, she ......."

Mo Fan said very calmly: "She's been too tired lately, let her sleep for a while." What's the matter?"

Pan Qi said: "There are several things that Mr. Lin needs to decide. ”

Mo Fan said: "It's not too urgent, just wait for her to wake up."

Pan Qi hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not in a hurry. However, there are two things for the approval of funds, and the logistics department and the storage and transportation department are waiting for Mr. Lin's instructions before they can go to the finance department to implement the funds and carry out the next step. ”

Mo Fan said: "There is no need to worry about this, what does it matter if you can spend half a day at night?"

Pan Qi was puzzled: "Then how do I reply?"

Mo Fan couldn't help but glance at her, could this be a pure newcomer in the workplace? I don't know how Lin Ruoxi picked her. said: "You can reply any way." ”

Pan Qi opened her mouth, glanced at Lin Ruoxi again, and then said, "There is one more thing." Mr. Lu from the marketing department is waiting for Mr. Lin's plan to be approved, you see?"

Mo Fan knew about this, and at the end of the morning meeting, he was next to him when Lin Ruoxi confessed to Lu Xiaorong. said: "Let Lu Xiaorong wait, this is not in a hurry." ”

It is really strange for a sales executive to give orders for the general manager. Mo Fan did it extremely naturally, as if everything was as it should be.

Although Pan Qi is a newcomer and doesn't know a lot about the situation, she knows that it is unruly for Mo Fan to act as a substitute. But for a while, she couldn't think of a proper way to deal with it. She had already seen this morning that Mr. Lin's attitude towards Mo Fan was very different, and Mo Fan was not just a sales executive. Besides, now Mr. Lin is covered with Mo Fan's coat and sleeping on his office chair, which is very unusual in itself. Waking up Mr. Lin, it doesn't seem like a big deal, right?

She groaned and said, "Okay, I got it." Xiang Mo Fan nodded, turned around and left the office, and closed the door with his hand.

Mo Fan stood up and stretched, and slept in the single sofa, which was really uncomfortable. After stretching my muscles, I walked to the desk, turned the monitor around, moved the keyboard and mouse, and sat on the outside of the desk and started working. Answer the phone, review the contract, make two futures orders, and do nothing delay.

Human beings can develop a certain resistance to any external stimulus over time. Mo Fan hopes that he can also form resistance when facing Lin Ruoxi, and don't mess up his heart every time he sees her, that feeling is really bad.

Now Lin Ruoxi is on the opposite side, and you can see it as soon as you raise your eyes, this is undoubtedly a good opportunity to exercise. Lin Ruoxi, who was asleep, frowned slightly, probably sleeping very reluctantly, so he expressed his dissatisfaction with this. It's a pity that she fell asleep, and when she woke up, she would object to it, which would also be expired.

During this period, the salesmen of this group came in to pick up the reviewed contract, and they were all surprised to see Lin Ruoxi sleeping on Mo Fan's seat. Although their eyes did not stay on Lin Ruoxi for long, and even tried their best to pretend that they did not see it, the more this happened, the more it showed that they were very concerned about this matter.

I don't know how they will gossip when they go out. Since Lin Ruoxi intends to promote everyone's associative ability and create that layer of personal relationships that do not exist, then you might as well let the gossip come more. Anyway, she is the one who should have a headache at that time, and if the gossip develops to a certain extent, it will begin to affect her daily management of the company, so that she can know that it is wrong to use people casually.

The office is a place where rumors can easily breed, and people especially like to pay attention to and spread the news between men and women. Mo Fan believed that if it weren't for his genuine girlfriend Lu Xiaorong in the company, Lin Ruoxi would not dare to do it at will. Although it is not excluded that some people with particularly rich imagination will associate in that direction and weave a complex and bloody plot in their minds, because of their relationship with Lu Xiaorong, this kind of thinking trend can be eliminated to a large extent.

Many companies have written or unwritten rules prohibiting office romances, not because the company's bosses are all believers in Zhu Xi and like to engage in the set of saving heavenly principles and destroying people's desires, but because office romances can easily lead to distortion of work ethics and undermine the management principles of fairness, justice and objectivity. Even if the person has a clear conscience, it cannot eliminate the doubts of others, which not only undermines the authority of the boss, but also creates a serious misalignment in the otherwise stable working relationship between colleagues.

Although the relationship between Mo Fan and Lin Ruoxi is not an office romance, under various rumors, their nature is similar. The three directors of the sales department now have some ideas in their hearts, which is probably one of Lin Ruoxi's purposes. But if the rumors are too strong, the negative impact is not limited to the sales department, and may affect Lin Ruoxi's normal management of the company.

Mo Fan also hopes that this can give Lin Ruoxi a wake-up call, so that she doesn't go too far, and it's better to stop in moderation.

Lin Ruoxi slept very deeply this night, and didn't wake up until more than four o'clock. She was stunned for a moment after opening her eyes, and saw Mo Fan sitting opposite her looking at her with a smile on his face, so she immediately sat up straight and asked, "What time is it?"

Mo Fan said: "It's less than a quarter past four, and there is still a moment before getting off work." ”

Lin Ruoxi frowned and said, "You actually let me sleep for so long!" Her voice was not loud, but it was obviously a little angry, which was rare for her.

Seeing her angry, Mo Fan smiled more and more happily and said, "It's not that I let you sleep for so long, it's that your body needs such a sleep." I have to say, you look much better now. You don't need to thank me, if you want to thank Liang Wenbo. ”

Lin Ruoxi stared at Mo Fan for a few seconds, Huo Di stood up suddenly, and the clothes covering his body slid down. She subconsciously reached out and grabbed it, glanced down, and turned to put it on the back of the chair behind her. touched the hair on the back of his head, and found that the hairpin had been re-sealed, and he felt no different from the hairpin he had made before, so he couldn't help but glance at Mo Fan again and said, "You have delayed me a lot." ”

Mo Fan said: "The work can never be done. Besides, you came to me to learn massage, so you can't seem to blame me, right? Anyway, have you learned?" he put his hands on the table and bounced on the table with a massage technique.

Lin Ruoxi glanced twice, sat down again, and bounced on the table like Mo Fan. In the past, she only inferred the massage technique through the feeling on her head, but now it is more intuitive to learn while watching.

Mo Fan said: "If the strength is greater, don't move your arms." ”

Lin Ruoxi did as she was told, and after just over a minute, she felt a little sore in her forearm. After holding on for a while, my arms couldn't stop shaking.

In Mo Fan's massage technique, his arms are almost immobile, and he mainly relies on his fingers to exert force. There are no muscles on the human fingers, and the movement of the fingers depends on the muscles on the forearm and the tendons connected to it, so it is a rather severe test for the muscles of the forearm.

Although Lin Ruoxi has practiced piano since he was a child, the way he exerts his strength is completely different, so he can't last long. But after more than three minutes, she couldn't hold on. When it comes to massage techniques, she has learned them. But it can only last for such a short time, and it obviously won't work. She remembered that on Saturday, Mo Fan gave her mother a massage, which lasted at least forty minutes.

"You already knew I couldn't learn. She put down her hands and looked at Mo Fan and said.

Mo Fan said, "You think I'm fooling you?"

Lin Ruoxi didn't speak, just looked at Mo Fan.

Mo Fan smiled and said, "Don't just blame others, you should also use your brains more." I remember that Liang Wenbo went back to his home again yesterday and met with you. If you ask him, isn't everything clear? Even if you don't ask, you can figure out some things. ”

Lin Ruoxi stood up, paused when he walked to the door, and said, "Thank you." Then he opened the door and walked out.
