CHAPTER XXXIV
During the work break, Qiao Jinghui went to the coffee room to sit for a while, and as soon as she took a cup of milk tea, Cai Hefeng followed in, and asked while taking her own cup of coffee: "You don't like coffee?" β
Qiao Jinghui didn't have to look back, just listening to the voice, she knew it was him, and replied faintly: "I heard that Jobs died of drinking too much coffee." β
Cai Hefeng almost spit out the coffee he had just drunk in his mouth: "Ahem, do you still believe that?" β
Qiao Jinghui shrugged: "Say it casually." After speaking, he turned his head back to look out the window, Cai Hefeng couldn't help but think, is there any beautiful scenery outside? More attractive to her than him?
knew that the person behind him had not left, in fact, she was waiting for him to leave before she could look at his back, anyway, after so many years, it was only his back that she was used to, and now she has the opportunity to look at the front all the time, but she is not used to it. Qiao Jinghui asked without looking back, "Why did you come back so suddenly this time?" β
Cai Hefeng smiled, and finally took the initiative to talk to him, moved a high stool to sit next to her, and said, "Do you remember how long Mr. Liu left?" β
"Five years? Six years? β
"It's been five years, does Ye's Bank in City C know?"
Qiao Jinghui nodded, this company is still a well-known private bank in City C, because of its proximity, she once went to exchange foreign currency.
"The son of Ye's Bank and Mr. Liu of our company were originally a couple, but something happened, Mr. Liu went abroad incognito, and no one told him when he left, and the son of the Ye family sent many people to look for it over the years, but they didn't find it."
"And then?"
"When we came back this time, a friend of Mr. Liu told the deputy general manager that the son of the Ye family seemed to be about to find Mr. Liu, and once she came back, the deputy general manager couldn't be absent, and then the overall situation over there was already under control, so we applied for a trip back with us, and it was approved."
Qiao Jinghui didn't seem to be interested in the reason why they came back: "If you find it, it doesn't mean that she is willing to come back." She is such an independent woman, she can be self-reliant outside for five years alone, and it is not something that a man can send back in a few words. β
Cai Hefeng twitched the corner of his mouth: "You're not wrong, the son of the Ye family has been there for half a month, but you have to believe that two people who love each other will always be together, don't you?" β
Qiao Jinghui turned her head to look at him, yes, the two of them are in love, so sooner or later they will be together, but it is not her Qiao Jinghui and Cai Hefeng.
So she pressed her forehead to the glass and gently repeated Cai Hefeng's words: "Isn't it?"
"In short, our main purpose for coming back this time is to welcome Mr. Liu's return."
Qiao Jinghui nodded absentmindedly, and then stood up, since he didn't go, okay she left.
Cai Hefeng stared at Qiao Jinghui's back, weak for a while, and thought, why is this little girl invulnerable?
A few days later, Qiao Jinghui arrived at the company early in the morning, and just about to get on the elevator, she saw Luo Xian coming out of the elevator next to her, walking outside in a hurry, walking two steps and turning back to press the elevator while making a phone call, Qiao Jinghui looked at him suspiciously, because the other party was on the phone, she was not good at saying hello directly, so she had to watch Luo Xian re-enter the elevator.
What is the director doing in such a hurry, the number of the elevator shows that he is now going to the garage, so he was about to go out, but when he came to the lobby, he realized that he should take the elevator directly to the garage? What happened? made such a calm and atmospheric person as the director panic.
When Qiao Jinghui entered the office, she understood, not only the supervisor was panicking, but most people in the entire company were agitated, and couldn't help but look at the little brother with doubts.
The little brother told her: "The legendary Mr. Liu is coming back!" All of our employees are going down to greet us, and we can finally meet this mysterious and amazing person! β
Qiao Jinghui said: "Isn't there her information on the Internet? β
"It's different! This time it's a real person! We came to the company relatively late, so we didn't have the opportunity to meet, but aren't you excited to witness the existence of this god man with your own eyes this time? β
"It's still a little exciting," Qiao Jinghui glanced at the little brother, "but it's not as exaggerated as you." β
Little brother: ""
Qiao Jinghui sat down and was about to start work, but as soon as the computer showed that the boot was successful, Cai Hefeng walked in, and as soon as he came in, he said without squinting: "The general manager informs everyone to put down their work and go to the first floor to gather immediately, remember that it is immediately!" β
Someone stood up excitedly and asked, "Has Mr. Liu arrived?"
Cai Hefeng softened his expression and said with a smile: "Yes." β
In fact, he has been admiring Liu Yuguan for a long time, but unfortunately he couldn't see the real person when he came a step late, but the description of her on the Internet was an understatement of a few words, and it was very confidential. Although there are old employees in the company, only the general manager, deputy general manager and Luo Xian know her person and her story, and he is embarrassed to say that he asked them out of a gossip psychology.
The company is not small now, but the number of people is not huge, but it is still enough to crowd the entire first floor, from the door to the elevator entrance, Qiao Jinghui was squeezed into the crowd layer after layer, and then she deeply felt the prestige of this woman in everyone's minds, which is bigger than the battle of college students and village officials in the village!
The deputy general manager stood closest to the door, and the people behind him were not arranged according to the hierarchy, occupying positions at will, but there was a narrow passage in the middle.
After waiting for a while, a car finally appeared at the gate, the general manager got down from the driver's seat with a smile, and another man came down near the door, dressed in plain colors, the whole person had a faint quiet temperament, the man walked to the other side of the door and opened the door, and then a head appeared in their field of vision.
Wearing big sunglasses, long curly hair and a casual extraneous style thin strap floral long skirt, she walked to the door, Qiao Jinghui saw that a pair of flat sandals were so tall under her feet, and the whole person seemed to have just returned from vacation, obviously with such a wanton attitude, but there was an indescribable style and charm between her every move.
This is Mr. Liu, it's a little different from the photos on the Internet, she still had short hair at that time, and she was more heroic in the photos, but in order to show her womanly nature, Qiao Jinghui thought about it and replaced "heroic" with "heroic" in her heart.
The Liu in front of him should be more casual, his eyes are still sharp and shiny, but he has lost the undefeated fighting spirit of the online photos. After working hard for a long time, she is a woman, and sooner or later she will be tired, so the man who opened the door for her should be the son of the Ye family that Cai Hefeng told her, and it is also a good destination to have such a gentle and careful man to rely on.
Where is Cai Hefeng at the moment?
Qiao Jinghui looked around and found that it was really convenient for others to be found because they were tall, and at a glance, she saw that Cai Hefeng had already been squeezed in front of the elevator, and the two were thousands of miles apart.
Cai Hefeng found that Qiao Jinghui was looking at him, and couldn't help but look back at a helpless and pitiful look, Qiao Jinghui secretly felt funny, and only glanced at him before withdrawing his gaze.
The deputy general manager walked over and hugged Liu Yuguan, she took off her sunglasses and patted the deputy general manager's back, and then said: "It's not like I'm going to be reinstated, what are you doing so grandly." β
The deputy general manager smiled: "Everyone misses you very much." β
"Chinese is very good, you stand in the lobby on the first floor of the office building and occupy such a position, are other companies okay?"
The general manager came in after him and said quite proudly: "Now the whole building belongs to our one-day company, and even the title deed has been obtained!" Other companies rent floors with us. β
She looked quite happy: "Yes, are all employees new now?" β
"Most of them were there before you left, and some of them were recruited later, and now the company has developed and there are more people, but basically they all maintain a good relationship, you can rest assured."
There was a sharp sound of brakes outside, and Qiao Jinghui glanced at the person in the driver's seat, wasn't it Director Luo who hurried out before?
A delicate figure jumped out of the car almost the moment he stopped, and rushed straight to Mr. Liu, and shouted in his mouth: "Brother!" β
Qiao Jinghui was stunned, brother? Did she hear it wrong, but she was just short-sighted and couldn't see clearly, not because her ears were hard to hear clearly, or she couldn't help but ask the person next to her: "Did I hear it wrong?" Does she call her brother? β
That person also had a few encounters with Qiao Jinghui, and said: "I don't know, it's always called like this, maybe the eldest lady of the Situ family thinks that Mr. Liu treats her like a brother." β
"Shouldn't you call me sister?"
"Aren't you also called Brother Qiao?"
"That's right."
Miss Situ held back her tears and stood obediently behind Liu Yuguan, Liu Yuguan stood side by side with Vijay and Jennifer, looking at these familiar and unfamiliar faces, some with tears in their eyes, some full of curiosity, but no matter what, there was a sense of home - this is the company she founded, this is the place where she put the most energy, and this may be where her youth lies.
"Hello everyone, I'm Liu Yuguan, your former general manager."
Liu Yuwan looked at everyone with a smile, and everyone applauded excitedly.
"I have no intention of reinstating this time, but it doesn't mean that I will give up on this company and you, I will do my best to help everything I can to help you." Liu Yuwan looked at everyone quietly, "I may not stay here for long, I used to be an ambitious person, and then I felt tired and went to pursue freedom." I've been everywhere over the years, and I'm used to being free, but as you can see, from what I just said I won't give up on this company, I'm still a very controlling person, haha. β
Liu Yuguan restrained his expression: "Long time no see, how are you doing?" β
"Good!" "We're all good!" "Very good!" "Good!"
Liu Yuguan walked slowly along the narrow passage left by the crowd, and said a few words casually to the surrounding employees, Qiao Jinghui didn't know what to say, so she just quietly watched Liu Yuguan walk in front of her in front of her, watching her talk to those she knew and those she didn't know one by one, she thought, being a woman can do this is really a winner in life!
After a brief meeting, everyone returned to their posts and resumed their work, and Liu Yuguan left Luo Xian to speak.
Not long after Luo Xian came back, the company began to spread the news that the director of the network management department was about to marry the eldest lady of the Situ family, the little brother was a gossip person, but Luo Xian was too smart to go out of his office at all, and they didn't have a proper reason to break in and ask directly, so no one came to the letter.
A few days later, there were media reports that Miss Situ was about to marry a department head of a company for one day.
At the same time, everyone in the network management department received a wedding card distributed by Luo Xian and Cai Hefeng, and everyone was happy that they had this rare benefit - in addition to the relatives and friends of the bride and groom, there were basically only people from their network management department who gathered two tables, and those who had the right to enter the venue were basically brightly dressed dignitaries.
I heard that this wedding was organized by Liu Yuguan, and other people, including general manager Wei Jie, deputy general manager Jennifer, Ye's son, Situ's son, the heir of a foreign family business and his wife, all listened to her words.
This is not easy for a woman, and it is simply a supreme glory in the eyes of outsiders! A symbol of honor!
Qiao Jinghui felt that if she was half as powerful as Liu Yuguan, she would not have the ability to take care of herself now, and it seemed that the two of them were about the same age! But everyone has broken out of the world and has her own career, but she is still trekking alone one road at a time.
I can't help but sigh in my heart, why is the gap between people so big?!
But it's useless to think so much, she doesn't work as hard as Liu Yuguan, so don't expect to have the same achievements as Liu Yuguan, she should be a little scum quietly! After a while, sit quietly at the dinner table and watch the most gorgeous, magnificent, stylish and imposing wedding she has ever seen in her life!
When I returned to the dormitory after work, several women in the dormitory surrounded Qiao Jinghui and said, "Your department is so lucky!" All of them can participate in the wedding of the eldest lady of the Situ family, do you know that this wedding is basically attended by people with rich and powerful connections. β
Qiao Jinghui didn't know much about this, but she felt that she was lucky to be able to participate in such a grand wedding, so she smiled and said, "Yes, I'm lucky." β
"Have you figured out how to wear it? With such a grand wedding, you don't want to wear a work suit and go, right? β
"Shouldn't it be formal?" In fact, Qiao Jinghui thought that she could just wear a long skirt, anyway, the long skirt was suitable for any occasion.
"Haven't you watched TV? Which of the women in it you see is not wearing a dress? What a low-cut outfit, a backless outfit, a see-through outfitβ"
"Stop, stop!" Qiao Jinghui had a black line, "The more I talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes, I'm just going to a wedding, sitting and watching, and then having a meal." β
"Where's the exaggeration? You're in such good shape, why don't you take the opportunity to show it? Maybe you can find a wishful man on the scene? You don't have a boyfriend in our dorm yet! β
Is it weird not to have a boyfriend? Isn't it reasonable? Isn't it okay for someone who doesn't have a boyfriend? She prefers not to conform to the eyes of the world.
But after a few days off, Qiao Jinghui still got up early in the morning, took her salary card and schoolbag, and quietly went to the city center alone - no matter how she said it, it was the first such grand wedding she had attended in her life, she couldn't embarrass herself, and at the same time, it was also to show her respect for this wedding.
In order to choose the right evening dress, Qiao Jinghui walked all over the women's clothing stores, large and small, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "Why am I not a man!" Just wear a black suit and you're over! β
A long-haired woman wearing a beige skirt and small white leather shoes, carrying a black canvas bag in front of her stopped when she heard the sound, Qiao Jinghui was shocked that her voice was too loud, and she consciously covered her mouth and turned to leave.
But someone chased after her and stopped her.
"Qiao Jinghui!"
Qiao Jinghui was taken aback, she couldn't be more familiar with this voice, but she just couldn't believe how this person could be here?!
Could it be that I heard it wrong?
Or, not her?
She slowly turned around, stared at the visitor, and said word by word the name that had not been spoken for many years:
"Shen, Hua, Wen."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
In the cafΓ©, Qiao Jinghui asked while eating delicate snacks, "Then are you still leaving when you come back this time?" β
Hua Wen shook her head: "My dad said that he wanted to come back to serve the motherland after learning something outside, so I came back, and he said that he wanted me to go to my uncle's company to do it, so I came to City C, I really didn't expect to meet you." β
"Well, I'm lucky, I was favored by the company for a day, and I joined the cyber security and management department, and I have been here for more than a year. Originally, I thought you would go down the path of the programmer ape, after all, you worked so hard and were so capable at that time. β
Hua Wen smiled and said, "It's just interest, what about you?" We used to think you were going to give up on your major, but who knew you would suddenly get so hard. β
"After all, I won't be anything else, at that time, there were conditions to learn this, so I just studied hard, so that I could support myself in the future."
"I remember you didn't write a novel? At that time, you had to tell us what you had written, and wouldn't let us read it. β
"I'm sorry, I don't want you to make fun of me if I don't write well, and I've been in the stage of practicing, and I haven't made any achievements so far, and the articles posted on that website are still in a low state. However, after so long, I have gotten used to it, and everyone likes to watch it, so I should express my thoughts and emotions. β
"You're really in a good attitude, so what were you yelling at just now?"
Qiao Jinghui Khan, how do you remember this? So he replied embarrassedly: "I want to attend the wedding of the eldest lady of the Situ family, so I came to buy suitable clothes." β
Hua Wen glanced at Qiao Jinghui's deflated schoolbag with sharp eyes, and asked sharply, "Have you bought the clothes?" Did you buy shoes? Did you buy a lapping? β
"No" is a shame.
Hua Wen put down the coffee in her hand and said, "Eat quickly, I'll take you to buy it when you're done." β
Qiao Jinghui reluctantly finished the snack quickly, but she still unconsciously smiled on her face.
Although they have been separated for many years and have just met for a long time, it seems that they have returned to the past in an instant, nothing has changed, she is still habitually obedient to her Qiao Jinghui, and she still likes Shen Huawen who manages her.
Choose your clothes first.
Hua Wen took her directly into Dior, her fingers slid over the rows of dresses, Hua Wen took out an off-blue deep V-neck short-sleeved long skirt, and when she turned around, she saw Qiao Jinghui holding a black conservative suit and smirking at her. Hua Wen couldn't help but hit her: "In broad daylight, women's black is not suitable for such an occasion, and your skin tone is darker than before, why are you wearing so black?" β
Qiao Jinghui hung the black suit back in frustration, Hua Wen showed her the skirt in her hand, and Qiao Jinghui exploded when she saw it: "You, you, you, that's a see-through suit!" β
"Anyway, you are in such a good figure, it won't be good if you show off your muscles after a year of being a soldier."
"You're talking about the same thing as my roommate."
"Roommate?"
"Well, now I live in the company's assigned accommodation, and there are five girls living with me, bunk beds."
Hua Wen put the clothes back and chose for a while, Qiao Jinghui turned around and took a piece of clothing and put it in front of Hua Wen's eyes, and asked excitedly, "How about this one?" β
The suspenders around the neck are connected to the fabric on the chest, the cloth on the left chest is pressed against the right breast and wrapped around the waist, the waist is tight, the hem of the skirt is only two fingers above the knee, and the right skirt is pulled up to the left waist and tied a long tail bow down an inch. The whole dress is off-white, without any variegation, with a bit of casual British style, but it is not formal, one is called Qiao Jinghui's skin color, the second is suitable for Qiao Jinghui's style, and the third is what she likes.
After the upper body also fits very well, Hua Wen looked her up and down, then took off a black leather belt from the counter on the side, gently tied it around Qiao Jinghui's waist, and then looked at her with satisfaction: "Your vision is not bad." β
"And the back just covers my tattoo, right?"
"That's right, didn't you say that you went to be a soldier for a year? Can you pass a physical examination with a tattoo? β
"Of course not, I washed it, and after I came out, I wrote it again."
"Do you have a soft spot for this tattoo?"
"This is my own design, and it is also my first tattoo, so I don't want to change it."
Qiao Jinghui smiled and swiped her card to buy this dress and belt, and when she walked out of the store, Hua Wen asked: "I never saw you buy expensive things before, why are you willing to buy such a luxury brand today?" β
"All the people who came were rich and powerful, I can't embarrass our department in our company!"
"Listen to me, a woman can live without a man, but she can't live without a luxury, and no woman hates luxury. You may be a woman, but you follow this rule as well. Hua Wen stroked Qiao Jinghui's black hair, which was now long and curly, "If you don't speak or act now, no one will know that you are a woman." β
"They all call me Brother Qiao."
Hua Wen didn't say this anymore, "Dior's clothes are finely made, you can look mature and elegant when you wear them, okay, go buy shoes."
Qiao Jinghui was pulled into the Prada store on the first floor, and Hua Wen handed her a pair of dark purple high-heeled shoes with lace on the front and back. But Qiao Jinghui objected: "I don't like these shoes with open toes and heels." β
So Hua Wen brought another pair of shoes, the heel is higher than the pair just now, white and gold shiny low-top snakeskin slip shoes, women always like shiny things, Qiao Jinghui also likes it, but: "These shoes are still open toes"
Hua Wen stared at her for two seconds, Qiao Jinghui looked away with a weak heart, Hua Wen brought a pair of gray ribbon suede stiletto heels with a higher heel, and Hua Wen said, "You can wear sandals directly." β
Now you don't have to worry about revealing it or not, and it's more refreshing to expose it all directly.
Qiao Jinghui took it and put it on, this pair is higher than a pair, Hua Wen is this on purpose, right? But fortunately, she was born a woman, her comprehension is very high, and she walked two laps and it was smooth.
Then the two went to LV to buy a handbag, and this time, almost without objection, the two chose a silver slender handbag with a gold snap button at a glance.
Put all the things they bought into their school bags, the two went out of the department store, Hua Wen was about to go to the garage to pick up the car, and asked Qiao Jinghui if she came by bus, Qiao Jinghui nodded yes, so they went to the garage together, and Hua Wen said that she would send her back.
"And where do you live now?"
Hua Wen held the steering wheel and said lightly: "Temporarily staying at my uncle's house, I will rent a house outside in two days, do you want to come and live with me?" β
Qiao Jinghui was stunned, her head turned rapidly, now she lives in harmony with the five girls, although there is no emotion, but there is never any conflict. It's good to be able to live with familiar people, and if you live with Hua Wen, it's a two-person room, and your space must be much larger, but you have to pay rent! And will it seem that you are different from the rest of the company, and you will feel out of place?
Originally, Hua Wen saw that she was a little hesitant and wanted to say that she should go back and think about it, but two seconds later, Qiao Jinghui made a decision: "Okay, let's go to see the house together, don't look for too expensive ones, I'm still a salaryman." β
In her heart, friends are still more important than reality, not to mention that Hua Wen is the only friend in her life who knows that the two can make friends without saying anything.
Cheng Yang is also a good friend in her life, but she is different from Cheng Yang.
The two of them do not have a high or low status in Qiao Jinghui's heart, one is a friend from childhood to adulthood, and the understanding between the two can be said to be in-depth to everything; One is a bosom friend who has spent the years of crush with her, and the two barely have to say anything to know what the other will do.
In this life, Qiao Jinghui feels very satisfied to have two friends like this.
