Chapter 471: A fleeting smile
On Friday, Chen Chi was in the company to deal with things, and it dragged on until seven o'clock, and when he walked out of the office, Lu Qing sent a message, and it was afternoon in Milan. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The company is responsible for the accommodation and food of the expatriates, and the salary is still issued to the domestic salary card according to the old rules. After a few months, everyone demanded that the salary be paid directly in euros, and Lu Qing mentioned this in the work report.
"Mr. Chen, everyone hopes to receive a euro salary from Isha, let me reflect my thoughts to the leader."
"Why?"
"People say that the longer they stay, the more embarrassed they are not to buy souvenirs, and then they buy and buy, and find that it is most convenient to use the local currency directly."
Needless to say, Chen Chi smiled, thought about it, and replied: "You do a survey to see how many people want to collect euros, write a formal email, and pay wages in euros will involve a series of accounting operations, and the company needs to discuss." ”
"Okay, there are a lot of people, Isha herself said that her credit card will be maxed out every month."
"You can't hold it anymore?" Chen Chi briskly stepped out of the elevator.
"Yes, Angie said that she couldn't do anything she liked when she saw it, but fortunately the summer discount season has passed, but now that the Christmas discount season is coming again. Jason already had a long list on hand, all of which he asked his aunt to buy and settle for him afterwards, and he said he was anxious now. ”
"Looks like you spend all your spare time shopping and helping others?"
"Ha, a little, there are a lot of relatives and friends. Fang Lian asked me to pick out an ornament for her mother as a New Year's gift. ”
"She said it."
"I've already started to help her."
"It's very efficient."
"Mr. Chen, if you fancy something, I can also buy it on your behalf."
"No, I might have to come again."
"Really, great, when?"
"No time has been set."
The phone ran out of battery at this moment, and suddenly the screen went black.
Xu Shuangjiang sat on the sofa in the living room, the computer resting on the coffee table, concentrating on preparing the courseware.
The mobile phone rang, it was the in-laws' home appliances.
"Hey, Shuangshuang, why can't Chi'er get through on the phone, is he at home?"
Every Friday, Chen Chi calls home almost at a fixed time, no, when the time comes, Wang Cailian can't wait for her son's call, so she calls.
"He hasn't come back yet, he should be on his way." Xu Shuangchuan said.
"I called his phone, turned it off, called his office phone, and no one answered. How is he lately? Wang Cailian's voice was a little worried, "He told his father on the Internet that he was a little busy at work. ”
"He's very busy, and he often has to work overtime."
"You tell him, no matter how busy you are, you have to pay attention to your body." Wang Cailian was reluctant, "I haven't gone home at this time, my stomach should be hungry, and the old women here are all going to the stadium to go back to sleep." ”
Xu Shuang smiled and looked at the white plastic box on the dining table with a humble heart. Today, Chen Chi said that he would get off work a little earlier than usual and would come back for dinner. Xu Shuangchuan thought that she would go back to her parents' house tomorrow, so she didn't go to the night market to buy vegetables, but still went to the stir-fry stall and bought two box lunches, she ate one and left one for Chen Chi, which was quite good.
"Shuangshuang, Chi'er is not meticulous, you have to talk to him well, and you should pay attention to your health. At that time, we worked the night shift to catch up with production tasks, and the factories let the workers go home and have dinner first. Now, you children, working overtime is certainly for your career, you also have to have a degree, and your body is your own. Meals must be eaten on time, and these small details cannot be neglected. You stuff some cookies in his usual bag, he is so careless that he can't think of these things. ”
Xu Shuang said yes, listening to her mother-in-law's nagging, there was a sound at the door, she stretched out her neck to look at the entrance, and said busily: "Mom, he's back." Chen Chi, are you running out of battery? ”
"yes." Chen Chi hurriedly threw off his shoes and rushed in, "My mother's phone?" ”
Xu Shuangchuan nodded and handed her phone over.
"Mom, I was delayed from work for a while, and my phone ran out of battery on the way."
Xu Shuangchuan listened to Chen Chi's next "good, good" and kept responding, shaking her head and laughing secretly, she guessed that her mother-in-law must have said what she had just said to Chen Chi again. There may also be a few words of explanation, such as you want to listen to Frost, Frost is more thoughtful than you think, she told me that you are busy, you are less busy.
Wang Cailian is a good mother-in-law, when she was young, she did ideological work, left some habits, and always grasped the main idea of other people's words at once, and even before the speaker appealed, she had already understood the true meaning and actively forged.
Xu Shuangchuan and her mother-in-law are far away, getting along better and better, and she speaks a little like a little daughter without pretense. When she talked about Chen Chi's busyness, she pursed her mouth slightly, a little procrastinating, revealing a little distressed and helpless tone. Wang Cailian turned her head and persuaded her son on the phone.
Xu Shuangchuan relieved her mother-in-law to take the feather to Chen Chi for training, she took Chen Chi's bag, took out his mobile phone, plugged it into her computer nearby to charge, and raised her index finger to point to the dining table.
Chen Chi took advantage of the situation, nodded at Xu Shuangchuan knowingly, walked to the dining table while talking on the phone, and opened the lid of the lunch box. "Mom, I'm not busy, I'm about to eat."
Xu Shuang glanced over, Chen Chi swallowed a few big mouthfuls, and talked to Wang Cailian in the intermittent. With Wang Cailian's habits, this phone call can't be short. The old princess looks forward to it once a week, and she wants to chat with her own son.
She stuck out her tongue and continued to look through tomorrow's lesson, pricking up one ear to care. Chen Chi is always very patient with his parents' phone calls, Xu Shuangchuan listened to him report the temperature here without being too long-winded, the mother and son seemed to compare the climate of the two places on the phone, and after a while, they talked about Gu Siya's work, and the mother-in-law probably only had this new thing during this time, and she talked about it very quickly, and it dragged Chen Chi's head to the ground, and the rest of the meal was completely cold.
"Mom, that's it, you guys rest early and talk next time." Chen Chi pressed the phone, looked at the time, half an hour had passed, he exhaled a long breath, and the chopsticks flicked the rice grains at the bottom of the plastic box, and ate a few more bites.
"Goji berry water, do you want to drink it? It's pretty dry. Xu Shuangchuan raised the glass in his hand.
"I've been talking about it for so long, I'm a little thirsty." Chen Chi smiled, walked over and took the cup, took a big sip, and squatted opposite the coffee table, "Put the phone here for you, how much is my charge?" ”
"Hey, hey, tap," Xu Shuangfei glanced at, "You see that the charging cable is pulled so straight, and my computer is going to be dragged away." ”
Chen Chi smiled good-naturedly and turned on his phone.
"Hurry up and finish eating, a meal is procrastinating, that's how the stomach problem comes out."
Chen Chi was obedient, put down his mobile phone, returned to the table and finished his meal, threw the lunch box into the trash, and diligently brought Xu Shuang's cup into the kitchen: "I'll refill the water for you." ”
Xu Shuangchuan tapped on the keyboard and smiled.
"Ding-dong." A message pops up on your phone.
Xu Shuang glanced sideways and shouted, "Chen Chi, you have news coming in." ”
"Okay." Chen Chi agreed, and said in a loud voice in the kitchen, "The water bottle is empty, I'll boil the kettle of water." ”
"Burn less, there's plum juice in the fridge." Xu Shuangchuan reminded, "If you burn too much, you can't drink old water overnight." ”
"Okay." Chen Chi poured water and boiled it, then he came out with a water cup, bent down to Xu Shuangxiao's hand, and picked up the mobile phone to touch the screen.
There are several pieces of news from Lu Qing's side.
"Great. The coffee shop we visited last time, I forgot the signboard and always wanted to go again. ”
"The almond croissants are delicious."
"Recently, I went to the city with Jason again, I highly recommended it to them, but I couldn't find the direction at all, it's really sad, and everyone laughed at it."
Chen Chi couldn't help but hook his lips, he pulled out the charging cable, and raised his eyebrows to look at Xu Shuang, with that smile on the corner of his lips.
"I'll take it in and charge it for a while." He straightened his waist and straightened the corners of his lips.
Xu Shuangchuan was still staring at the computer screen seriously, but her neck was a little stiff, and when Chen Chi turned around completely, she was able to tilt her head slightly, look at his back, and put her fingertips on the keyboard and forgot to lift it.
