Chapter 32: Joe's Drunkard's Meaning
On Saturday morning, Jiang Chen, who works at the store, got up on time as usual and was about to wash up, when he found that someone who was supposed to be sleeping lazily occupied the bathroom first.
"Qiao Jin, are you taking a shower? Going to work today? β
"I don't go to work, but if I want to go out, I'll be fine right away."
Jiang Chen pursed his lips, in the past two days, he watched Qiao Jin go out early and return late because of the company's affairs, and basically his eyes were sleepy as soon as he got home. Jiang Chen didn't hear Qiao Jin say how to sleep with the quilt on the weekend, it seems that he is just thinking about it, and in reality it is destined to be a hard life.
The microwave "ding" sounds, and the custard bun and milk are all warm. Qiao Jin gave up the bathroom, and Jiang Chen stood at the door of Qiao Jin's room while brushing his teeth, watching Qiao Jin standing in front of the wardrobe.
Qiao Jin raised his head, just in time to meet Jiang Chen's gaze, and wondered, "Why are you staring at me like this?" β
Jiang Chen smiled and asked very clearly, "Go on a date?" β
"It's not!" Qiao Jinyi corrected rhetorically, "It's work!" β
"That's definitely not going to the company, is it?"
Qiao Jin looked at Jiang Chen with a smile on his face, and pretended to be impatient, "You asked too much, aren't you late for work?" β
"I want to cover it", Jiang Chen rinsed his mouth, and his voice came from the bathroom, "Working overtime is still so energetic, there is definitely a problem~ A beautiful errand that combines work and rest, it's good to wear a little casual, relaxed." β
Qiao Jin was a little annoyed, "I don't need to build yì, and I don't have to worry about wearing ......"
Jiang Chen asked in a loud voice unconvinced, "Really?" Anyway, come out for breakfast first! β
Until he went out, Qiao Jin didn't reveal his whereabouts. Bringing his laptop, Qiao Jin took the subway. The first time I went to Yanxin's house, if I wanted to say that I didn't care, I didn't worry, it was Qiao Jin's self-deception.
Qiao Jin originally made an appointment with Director Xiaowen to work overtime at the company on Saturday morning, because there were some problems that needed to be verified again, and Qiao Jin also wanted to study them in depth. On the day of the dinner, Qiao Jin had no intention of chatting with Yanxin about this arrangement, and Yanxin simply gave Qiao Jin a few suggestions in terms of counting, and Qiao Jin, who was inspired, asked Yanxin several questions at that time, completely unconsciously. Yanxin was overwhelmed by the question, so he invited Qiao Jin to his home on Saturday to discuss. At that time, Qiao Jin was just stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay!" β
After returning home, Qiao Jin remembered a series of questions, such as how to explain his behavior of releasing pigeons to Director Xiaowen? Speaking of going to the general family? Clearly inappropriate. In the space where there is only oneself and one's heart, what should I do and say? Qiao Jin was on the subway, thinking about the problem of the century, but there was no conclusion, Qiao Jin could only think of the four words of improvisation, as much as possible not to show his nervousness.
"Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong......"
Qiao Jin rang the doorbell of 503 on the access control system, and the psychological comfort along the way was useless, Qiao Jin's heartbeat still accelerated with the sound of "ding dong".
"Qiao Jin?"
"Mr. Yan, early."
"Morning, I'll open the door for you."
Yanxin's home, the decoration style is simple. Entering the door, you will walk past a row of solid wood display shelves in the form of nine palaces, with a living room connected to a balcony on the left and a dining room and kitchen on the right. Yan Xin was wearing a white lounge dress with a faint camellia, her long hair was combed, and she stood at the dining table and looked at Qiao Jin, "Have you had breakfast?" β
"Hmm", Qiao Jin's gaze looked at Yan Xin, and the next second he shifted to the milk cup and saucer on the dining table, and asked, "What about you?" β
"Just eaten, wait for me to clean up ......"
"Need help?"
Qiao Jin, who was originally standing in place, walked to the dining room, shook his head with a smile and stopped, "No need, you go to the living room to sit first, put down the bag, and feel free." β
"Okay." Qiao Jin obediently did so, took out the computer from his bag, and put it on the coffee table.
The early morning sun sprinkled on Qiao Jin through the balcony, turning Qiao Jin's hair golden and making Qiao Jin's eyes squint slightly. Yan Xin walked over with the fruit, smiled, and casually brought light gauze curtains to slightly block out the dazzling light.
"Qiao Jin, start moving out of the computer, you are a workaholic than me."
Hearing the joke of Yan Xin, Qiao Jin let go of the mouse and smiled, "Today should be a break, let's start early and finish early, Mr. Yan, you won't be too tired." β
"I'm okay", handing the fruit to Qiao Jin, Yan Xin sat down on the sofa, "I sleep longer at night than before, and the spirit of the day is enough for me to handle some work and do a little outdoor exercise." β
"Well, sleeping is a blessing, and with a moderate amount of aerobic exercise, it is good for both mother and baby."
"Qiao Jin, does your tone have a bit of an expert's taste~"
Qiao Jin shook his head with a smile, "I heard the experience, Mr. Yan, don't exalt me too much." β
Yanxin casually asked, "Then you have listened to expert lectures?" β
"Forehead......" Qiao Jin was caught off guard by the question, not understanding whether he was weak-hearted, and vaguely felt that something was wrong, "I heard from Sister Sha, isn't Sister Sha in Xuhui also pregnant, so I know a little bit." β
It can be regarded as reasonable, and the words are not entangled anymore, otherwise it will seem too deliberate.
"Let's talk about the problem you encountered, this is the main topic of our two workaholics today."
Qiao Jin pursed his lips and smiled, "Okay, I've already listed them all, and the troublesome words will be broken one by one!" β
"Very good", Yan Xin showed an appreciative look, "This is very clear, and the efficiency of answering questions will be greatly improved." β
Yanxin scrolled the mouse and began to explain and guide Qiao Jin on each question. Some of them are directly related to the budget number, such as whether the budget value obtained by considering the year-on-year increase can withstand the examination of other dimensions, because Qiao Jin's biggest confusion at present is that the number jΓΉ theory he has established is also being overturned by himself, and in the end, the measurement standard is blurred and the direction is lost. This made Qiao Jin lack confidence when making a budget, and he was not 100% sure of the values he set, often when Director Xiaowen asked twice, Qiao Jin began to reflect on whether he was doing something unreasonable, and would not come up with evidence to convince Director Xiaowen.
Yan Xin understands very well, after all, Qiao Jin still lacks work experience, and it is the first time to contact the large number of the entire region, so that every number of jΓΉ can stand up to scrutiny, and behind that number of jΓΉ must be an absolute understanding of the entire Shanghai area, either a person at or above the manager level, or at least a year of contact with the number of regions. However, Qiao Jin's advantage is that he is studious, has strong understanding, and accumulates slow work over time, but in the budget items in front of him, Yanxin still gave Qiao Jin rapid improvement training.
The three aspects and five elements that must be paid attention to in the formulation of the budget are directly required by Qiao Jin, and they must be ripe and reasonable. What Yan Xin didn't tell Qiao Jin is that these are usually requirements for supervisors.
As for the other issues listed by Qiao Jin that are not directly related to the budget, they are purely curious babies who want to dabble in extensively. For example, why is the budget submission process so cumbersome, and can it be simplified? For example, the store manager does not approve of the company's budget, how to communicate, etc. Yanxin either wrote a sketch, or explained it directly to Qiao Jin, and the confusion that Qiao Jin occasionally asked was easily solved.
"Mr. Yan, this small stove is too valuable. Listening to your words is better than ten years of work. β
"It's good if it helps you", Yanxin put down the pen and frowned when he straightened up, "After a while, my back hurts and my legs are numb......"
Qiao Jin glanced at the clock on the wall and said in surprise, "Where is it for a while?" More than three hours have passed, is it a leg cramp? β
"It's okay if you don't say it......" Yanxin tried to move, but his eyes closed in pain.
Qiao Jin didn't think about it, he reached out and lifted Yanxin's calf, rested it on his lap, and regardless of Yanxin, who wanted to resist, he used the strength of his palm and ten fingers to help Yanxin do a leg massage.
"Mr. Yan, you have helped me so much, can't you let me come with this emergency measure?"
"I'm on business, you ......"
"Don't you think of me as a friend?"
Facing Qiao Jin's eyes, Yan Xin was helpless, "Okay, you won't listen to me anyway." β
Qiao Jin smiled, "It's not embarrassing, just don't be strong." β
The words and hearts want to speak and stop, and the status before and after seems to be reversed, and the words and hearts have become the lord who should be obedient and obedient. Qiao Jin, who was smiling with his eyebrows, was obviously very bad, but he couldn't get angry, but felt that Qiao Jin looked silly because of his simplicity, and his faint smile had the power to warm people's hearts.
"Is it better now?"
Listening to Qiao Jin's concerned question, Yanxin nodded, "I'll stand up and walk." β
"Before you know it, it's half past eleven, Mr. Yan, are you hungry?"
Yanxin stretched his arms and walked to the balcony, "It's okay, I don't feel hungry." β
Qiao Jin stood up and hesitated, "Or I'm ...... Let's just make something to eat, right? β
"Huh?" Yanxin looked back at Qiao Jin and threw out a voice that he didn't understand.
"Just now, because I was too involved in work, I should be hungry after a while, it is too troublesome to go out to eat, and the takeaway is unhealthy, if there are ingredients at home, it won't take an hour to cook, I think so", Qiao Jin paused and added, "It's not that I want to eat." β
Yan Xin raised the corners of her lips and laughed, "Who is afraid that you will eat more than those taels of food?" I'm worried that you're not good at cooking, and I won't have time to put out the fire. β
"That", Qiao Jin smiled awkwardly, "For the sake of Mr. Yan's kitchen, the difficulty of ordering food should not be too great." β
"So, if you really burn down the kitchen, will you blame me for being too harsh?"
"The temperament of a pregnant woman cannot be ......"
Yan Xin was replied by Qiao Jin's words, and his eyes widened, "Qiao Jin, do you dare to follow my words?" β
Qiao Jin stuck out his tongue, and now he knew that he didn't deal with it head-on, "I'll go see what ingredients are in the refrigerator first, so I can play." β
