Chapter 1 (A Moment of Joke (1)) Section 1: A New Beginning
Ming Cheng came to the company at 9 o'clock in the morning on Tuesday, and just got out of the elevator door and bumped into Xia Mengyue, "Mr. Xia is early" Ming Cheng said hello very politely. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"You're 3 minutes late" Xia Mengyue didn't even look at Ming Cheng, and walked directly into the company after speaking.
Helplessly, Ming Cheng stood at the door of the elevator, and scolded in his heart, "I'll go to you, you will find me on the first day of work, you will have nothing to do when you are full, and you will find someone to vent?" He walked to the front desk and gently knocked on the table at the front desk, "Ling Xue, morning"
Ling Xue, who was burying her head in tidying up and cleaning the tabletop, heard someone greet her, and quickly raised her head and smiled, "Good morning." This smile was the best breakfast for Ming Cheng, and it all disappeared without a trace just because of Xia Mengyue's unhappiness.
"Are you cleaning the table, I'll help you," Ming Cheng looked quite enthusiastic.
"No need, it's already cleaned, I'll take you to your office first" After speaking, Ling Xue put the rag away, walked into the company with Ming Cheng, and came to the room at the very end, the door number said "Marketing Planning Department". "This is your office, go in and say hello to your friends" Ling Xue opened the door of the office.
"I'm really going to do it, on purpose!" Ming Cheng scolded in his heart, because the place where he worked in the future was next door to Xia Mengyue's office. Walking into the office, several employees who were chatting saw someone coming and hurriedly gathered over, a total of 3 people, one of whom was a female colleague, named Lu Yuan, 23 years old, petite and exquisite, about 1.56 meters or so, melon seed face, two small dimples appeared when he smiled, pear blossom head, medium and short hair, and a hairstyle similar to a pear shape. Although she is not as beautiful and beautiful as Xia Mengyue and Ling Xue, she is also a rare beauty, and judging by her appearance, she should have just graduated from college.
"Partners, this is your new department director, his name is Le Mingcheng, you have to get along well," Ling Xue said in a sweet voice.
Ming Cheng also greeted everyone with a smile, "Hello new colleagues."
"Hello Mr. Le, welcome to your arrival, if we do something bad in the future, please bear with us and give us more advice," said colleagues in the office.
"Where, where, I am, if I have any negligence or negligence, please don't be polite, just say it, after all, everyone here is more professional than me" This will Ming Cheng is quite good at talking, and he seems very polite.
"Mr. Le, I'll go out to work first, and you all slowly get to know each other," Ling Xue closed the door and walked out of the office after speaking.
All morning, Ming Cheng spent the whole morning learning about the company and the department's business, and at noon the other colleagues went out to eat, only Lu Yuan and Ming Cheng stayed in the office.
Ming Cheng put down the work in his hand and walked to Lu Yuan's desk, "Lu Yuan, aren't you going to eat?"
"Oh, no, I'm on a diet to lose weight," Lu Yuan replied to Ming Cheng by touching her little face.
"Ohmygod, are you so thin and still lose weight?" Ming Cheng asked in surprise, not out of politeness, but because Lu Yuan was really thin and slender, or how could it be a melon seed face.
"Khan ~ Mr. Le, don't you know?
Ming Cheng lit a cigarette and replied "I don't know".
Lu Yuan shook her hand in front of her nose, "Ouch, don't smoke in the office, it's smoked to death."
"Okay, okay, I'll go to the elevator to smoke (there will be a common trash can next to the elevator door, and the top of the trash can is the ashtray)" After speaking, Ming Cheng left the office and walked to the elevator to smoke a cigarette: This girl has a lot of personality, I like it, looking at the way she talks to strangers who have just met, she should be very familiar with dating friends of the opposite sex, maybe she had a few boyfriends in college.
When the cigarette was about to finish, the elevator door opened, and Ling Xue walked out, she should have just come back from lunch, "Mr. Le, it turns out that you can smoke, no wonder when I first saw you, I smelled a smell of smoke on you" Ling Xue said as she returned to her position at the front desk.
Ming Cheng put out the cigarette that was almost finished, and walked to the front desk, "Do you hate smokers?"
"Not really," Ling Xue picked up the mineral water on the table and took a sip. Although it is just a small action of drinking water, it is a rare wonderful scenery in Mingcheng's eyes.
"Is it because I haven't seen a woman for too long?" a slight act of drinking water fascinates me so much," Ming Cheng sighed inadvertently.
Ling Xue, who had finished drinking the water, noticed the lewd look on Ming Cheng's face, "What's wrong?"
"No, I just think the way you drink water is so beautiful, and I'm fascinated by it all of a sudden," Nasei replied unabashedly.
"Hahaha, Mr. Le, you are really open-mouthed" Ling Xue laughed heartily, as if tears were about to burst into laughter, "You are the most honest person I have ever met."
"But my dad used to say I couldn't do anything but cheat."
"Why did your dad say that about you, is it really because you lied a lot?".
Ming Cheng reached out and pulled the swivel chair next to him and sat down, "Almost, when I was a child, I often lied to my dad in order to get something or get some pocket money."
"Ha~Ha, it seems that I said something wrong, it turns out that you are not honest," Ling Xue said jokingly.
"Well, it's a drop, besides, who didn't tell a lie or two to their parents when they were young, and lied to their parents once or twice".
The gloomy clouds were bleak, Ling Xue didn't speak, the smile on her face disappeared, a trace of sadness appeared, and her index finger kept going back and forth slightly left and right on the table.
"What's wrong?" Ming Cheng noticed Ling Xue's sad expression, "Did I say something wrong, I apologize"
Ling Xue, who came back to her senses, smiled again, "No, nothing, I just finished lunch, I'm just a little sleepy."
"Yes, then you take a rest first, I won't bother you, I have to go to work in the afternoon, don't be too tired."
Ling Xue nodded. "Well, okay"
Ming Cheng left the front desk and walked towards the office, "Sleepy?" Obviously, Ling Xue made up the words after forcing a smile, if I remember correctly, it should be that when I asked who didn't lie to her parents when she was a child, her face changed, could it be that something similar to this topic happened between her and her parents?" opened the office door, walked to his seat and sat down, and sighed deeply, "It seems that when talking to Ling Xue in the future, you should pay special attention to the topic of family." ”
Lu Yuan, who was sitting on the swivel chair, turned to look at Ming Cheng, "Yo, Mr. Le, have you smoked a cigarette for half an hour, are you smoking a cigar?"
"I want to too, but I'm poor, where can I afford to buy cigars, I can afford to smoke a pack of cigarettes for 10 yuan, it's already good, cigars, this is a product that is out of reach in my lifetime."
"Then why did it take you so long to come back, people stay in the office alone, but it's boring, you don't know how much you miss you, looking forward to your return" Lu Yuan said in a coquettish voice.
"I'll go, it's really not true, in fact, I miss you so much, although I only left for a while, but I feel like a year for Shu Huang" Ming Cheng understands very well that Lu Yuan is not courteous because of her new official appointment, but her personality is like this, she likes to joke with the opposite sex and mingle, so Ming Cheng also jokingly replied to her.
"Hahaha, still Shu Xiao, Mr. Le, how old are you."
"Not too old, only 23" Naruto leaned back into his chair and looked up at the ceiling.
Lu Yuan leaned to Mingcheng's desk, "23-year-old Shu Huang, you are decrepit before you get old?"
"Almost, by the way, I'll ask you something."
"What's the matter?" Lu Yuan looked at Ming Cheng with his head in his hands.
"Is Ling Xue familiar with you, what kind of girl is she?"
When Lu Yuan heard this, he glanced at him with a pair of charming eyes and said teasingly, "Yo, Mr. Le, you have only come to work on the first day and you have taken a fancy to the treasure of our company's front desk?"
"Not yet, but maybe I'll take a fancy to it in the future," Ming Cheng also glanced at Lu Yuan, "but I want to seriously understand her personal details for all beauties."
"Hmph~ You want to know about the beauty, so why don't you come to understand me? Do you mean to say that I'm not beautiful?" Lu Yuan pretended to be angry and turned her head to the side and stopped looking at him.
"Where, it's just that I don't have an in-depth understanding, you see that I'm not communicating with you, and please include more beauties."
Lu Yuan turned the swivel chair back again, "It's pretty much the same."
"Ling Xue arrived at the company half a year earlier than me, it is said that not long after she came, there were many people chasing her, but they all ate soft nails, although she was enthusiastic and cheerful, but as long as it was related to the relationship between men and women, she ignored the matter of exceeding the line of friends, and would not go deep" Ling Xue curled the ends of her hair with her fingers, "Let's say so, if you want to ask her to eat with you after work, it is almost impossible, and 100% will be rejected." One thing is for sure, though, she doesn't have a boyfriend. ”
In fact, what Ming Cheng wants to hear most is the last sentence, because in his opinion, only the last sentence is the key to other secondary matters. In this way, two people who don't eat lunch chatted about a lunch break, giving people the feeling that they didn't just meet today, but childhood sweethearts who have been together for many years, and they talked about everything. It wasn't until they went to work in the afternoon that the two separated and went back to their own posts to do their own things. Mingcheng's work is actually very simple, is to review the operability of the project submitted by the salesmen, if it can be operated, it will be assigned to the project budget and handed over to the technical department to produce, basically the budget of the project does not exceed 100,000, he can be directly allocated, more than 100,000 need to be signed and approved by Xia Mengyue, if the investment budget is not proportional to the reality, then he is the planning director of the marketing department.
In a blink of an eye, it was evening, almost half an hour before getting off work, Ming Cheng walked to the front desk, "Ling Xue, today is my first day at work, I want to invite you to dinner, because there are many things in the company that I don't know very well, and I want to ask you for advice" (Ming Cheng is obviously lying, in fact, he doesn't have anything to know about at all, just casually making up a reason to verify whether what Lu Yuan said is true, to see if anyone who invited her to dinner was rejected)
"No, I still prefer to eat at home, there is too much gutter oil outside, which is unhygienic" Ling Xue almost didn't think about it and directly rejected Ming Cheng.
Is she Joan of Arc? Hehe, do you think I'll give up if I just say no? It's too naïve, too underestimating my brother, my brother is naturally thick-skinned." Ouch, my beautiful goddess, you see that I didn't know much about anything on my first day at work, and I was busy today, so I didn't have time to say anything to other people (Ming Cheng's brain power automatically filtered Lu Yuan, plus Ling Xue didn't know that Ming Cheng and Lu Yuan had chatted for a noon) Mr. Xia is very strict with me, if I don't do well and I am caught by her, then I can't eat and walk around, can you help, okay" I have to say, Ming Cheng sprinkled coquettishness and made goosebumps all over the body.
"....." Ling Xue looked at Ming Cheng, who was squirming and pinching his whole body with an obscene face, and was speechless. "But why are you looking for me, Lu Yuan, who is in the same department as you, should know more about the company than me, I'm just a front desk consultant."
"I asked, but she said that she couldn't help me if she was going on a date with her boyfriend tonight" Ming Cheng made up a lie again, but fortunately, Lu Yuan was not there, or there was a good show to watch.
"That's right, but you haven't answered me yet, why do you just come to me and not find someone else" Ling Xue asked again.
Ming Cheng felt that the success rate of using ordinary methods was too low, so he reached out and picked up a flower in the vase on the front desk, moved the hand holding the flower to Ling Xue and said affectionately: "Because when I first came to the company, you were the first person to talk to me, plus the way you communicate with people makes me feel very relaxed, not nervous at all, and most importantly, your charming smile makes me feel very close, very natural, very warm, and consciously tell me that talking to you is the best choice." Although this passage is a bit contrived, it is the sincere words of Ming Cheng.
"Is this a stalker?Can I interpret your current behavior as you like me and want to chase me?" Ling Xue said this sentence very directly.
I'll take a look, this woman is so powerful, no wonder I can't make an appointment, fortunately, my brother is a professional, and he knows how to deal with it, "Sort of, you can understand it this way, but it's a little different, as long as it's a beauty, I like it, but you don't have to chase it if you like it."
"Hahaha, you're really straightforward" Ling Xue was amused by such Ming Cheng, "Okay, okay, okay, I'll go to dinner with you and tell you something you want to know.... But I have one request, I'll decide where to eat."
"Okay, no problem, but don't be too expensive or too high-end place, I'm very poor, I may not be able to afford it," Ming Cheng pouted and said stingily.
Ling Xue was really amused by Ming Cheng, "Hahaha, it was you who said that you wanted to invite me to dinner, and it was you who said that you couldn't afford to invite me, this is really the first time I've seen such a person~ Hahaha." Okay, okay, got it, it won't break the bank anyway."
"That's good, then I'll go back to the office first, or I will be found out by Mr. Xia that I'm not there and I'm going to be lectured again, after getting off work, I'll wait for you in the hall downstairs, don't let me pigeon" Ming Cheng turned around and walked back to his office after speaking.
"Got it, it's true" Ling Xue smiled. ...
Finally got off work, Ming Cheng, who was full of expectations, was the first to get up and leave the company, and when he was often at the front desk, he also made a gesture to Ling Xue I am waiting for you downstairs, and then took the elevator to the hall on the next floor.
At the door of the hall on the first floor, Ming Cheng lit a cigarette and waited for Ling Xue to come down, but he never expected that Xia Mengyue would suddenly appear behind him at this time.
"Yo, our music director also has a punctual time, the first time he gets off work, he is the first to leave," Xia Mengyue said sarcastically.
Ming Cheng hurriedly extinguished the cigarette and threw it into the trash can beside him, "Well, it's not... Mr. Xia, it's not what you think" Ming Cheng was a little panicked, he was caught with pigtails on the first day he came to work, and anyone would panic. "Because it's my mother's birthday today, and there is a traffic jam during the rush hour, I want to celebrate my mother's birthday in a hurry, so I'm just..."
"Don't be nervous, I don't blame you, your performance at work today is not bad, I hope you keep it like this, don't let me find anything wrong, otherwise you understand" After speaking, Xia Mengyue walked to the underground parking lot.
Ming Cheng shook his head and sighed, "I'll you, it's really a tigress, she looks so beautiful, why is her personality so bad, it's so imperfect."
After a long time, Ling Xue finally came down from the company building, and Ming Cheng walked to Ling Xue's side, "My goddess, I've been waiting for you so hard, it's been almost half an hour, and my feet are weak."
Ling Xue stretched out her hand and gently patted Ming Cheng's face, "Asking a girl out for dinner will definitely have to pay some sacrifices, don't you understand such a basic truth?"
"Now I understand" Ming Cheng looked at Ling Xue helplessly, and couldn't fight her sincerely, "Okay, no kidding, let's say, where to eat?"
"Let's go to Zhongshan Road to eat (local food supper street)".
"Ahh
"yes, then let's go to Genting Hotel for dinner (one of the most expensive high-end restaurants in the region)".
“... No money~-. I can't afford to ask for it there, and I can't afford to eat it."
"Just Zhongshan Road and Genting, you can choose one."
"Let's go, let's go to Zhongshan Road" Ming Cheng didn't say a word, and walked directly to the side of the road to stop a taxi.
After getting in the car, the two jumped straight to their destination.
