(4) Christmas

One morning before Christmas, Qiu Yan arrived at the company half an hour early as usual, and just opened the door and was sorting out the things on the front desk, when he suddenly saw two strange men coming over and walking straight into the company. Qiu Yan hurriedly stopped them, "Good morning, two gentlemen, is there anything wrong with coming to our company so early?" ”

The younger young man was about to speak, but was stopped by the man beside him who raised his hand, "Let's negotiate business." ”

Qiu Yan said with a smile: "It's not time to go to work yet, two gentlemen, please go to the rest area and wait for a while." Do you have a reservation? I can give you a call and let the person in charge know you're waiting. ”

"No, let's make a decision after the first time we want to observe."

Qiu Yan led the two to the sofa in the rest area, "Please sit down, do you want to have something?" ”

"Mr. Xu, what do you want?" The young man looked at his companion opposite.

The man known as "Mr. Xu" raised his eyes and looked at Qiu Yan and smiled: "I want to taste the breakfast here, I wonder if Miss is willing to buy it for me?" ”

Qiu Yan looked at "Mr. Xu" suspiciously, thinking that there was a restaurant selling breakfast downstairs, and it would be too late if he didn't queue up, "Okay, sir, wait a minute." After Qiu Yan finished speaking, she took the money and walked to the elevator, fortunately, there was no need to queue up in the breakfast shop, she quickly bought two breakfasts and put them in front of the two men, politely said "slow use", and turned to leave.

Qiu Yan returned to his workstation and said "good morning" to his colleagues who were arriving one after another. Colleagues have become accustomed to Qiu Yan's early arrival and greetings, and after more than five months of getting along, many people gradually fell in love with this beautiful and diligent girl.

"Good morning Qiu Yan, I have a good mood when I see you when I come to the company every day."

"Good morning, beauty!"

"Good morning, Xiaoqiu, have you had breakfast?"

"Good morning."

……

Wang Jing, who was late, sat down on the chair, picked up the breakfast in the bag and said happily while eating: "Today is Christmas Eve, and the company will have a party in previous years, and it will leave work two hours early in the afternoon, so that the ladies have time to dress up and shop." ”

Qiu Yan: "What are the activities at the party?" ”

Wang Jing thought back and said: "Singing and dancing are similar to drinking parties, have you ever attended the annual party before?" ”

Qiu Yan shook his head, "Can I ask for leave?" I can't sing or dance, so it's embarrassing to go. ”

Wang Jing looked at her incredulously, "You are stupid, what kind of leave do you ask?" There are a lot of good things to eat and drink in the event venue, so you should go to the tooth festival. ”

Qiu Yan asked with some concern, "What clothes did you all wear at the party?" ”

Wang Jing: "Whatever." Young girls mostly wear evening dresses, do you? ”

Qiu Yan shook his head and said, "I have two cheongsams, which are left over from selling clothes in the past. ”

"Cheongsam is also fine, the company's internal activities are that everyone plays together, and there are not so many rules. Hey? Who are those two people in the lounge? Wang Jing looked at the two men in the rest area who were eating breakfast slowly, and they were even more elegant than her, and she wiped her mouth with a tissue with some embarrassment.

Qiu Yan met the eyes of Mr. Xu in the rest area, smiled politely, and whispered, "They are here to negotiate business with the company." ”

Wang Jing: "It's early enough!" Did you say who you were looking for? ”

"Nope. Mr. Xu said that he would make a decision after observation. Qiu Yan picked up a pack of tissues and walked to the rest area, "Have you two eaten well?" ”

Mr. Xu took the tissue handed by Qiu Yan, "Eat well, thank you Miss Qiu." ”

"Miss Qiu, this is the breakfast fee." The young man took out a red ticket from his wallet and handed it to Qiu Yan.

Qiu Yan smiled: "I don't need so much, this time I will invite the two." Is there anything else you can help with? ”

At this time, Mr. Gao hurriedly walked over, and when he looked around, he saw Mr. Xu in the rest area at a glance, and stretched out his hands from afar, "President, there is a loss of welcome, a faux pas!" ”

Xu Yajun shook hands with Gao Yang, "You're welcome, we came too early." ”

Gao Yang: "The president is here, I have been looking forward to your coming!" I was thinking of picking you up in the morning, but I didn't know that there was a project that tossed me into the middle of the night last night, and when I woke up, you were already at the company. You two must not have eaten yet, right? Let's go, I'm in for a treat! ”

Xu Yajun said with a smile: "This meal will be waived, there will be a time for you to break the bank." This Miss Qiu has already invited us to eat steamed buns and soy milk. ”

Gao Yang looked at Qiu Yan, whose face was slightly red, and said with a smile: "Xiao Qiu is a good employee, enthusiastic and active in his work. ”

Xu Yajun looked at Qiu Yan's embarrassed expression after being frightened and said to Gao Yang: "Let's go, let's go to your office to talk." ”

Gao Yang nodded "yes" and politely led Xu Yajun in front.

Wang Jing watched Mr. Gao and Xu Yajun disappear around the corner, and asked Qiu Yan softly: "Is that Xu Yajun?" Sure enough, it's a diamond-level man! You're lucky this time, and the sea of people who want to invite him to dinner has gone......"

Qiu Yan stood at the workstation nervously, thinking about whether there was anything wrong with the reception just now, except for inviting the president to eat a little simpler, there seemed to be nothing wrong.

In the afternoon, as expected, she got off work two hours early, and Sister Xia from the Administration Department asked the female employees to participate in the Miss World audition to participate in the evening banquet. Qiu Yan looked at the excited and expectant light on the girls' faces, and hesitated to buy an evening dress. She thought about the money in her pocket, and finally decided to save the money.

When Qiu Yan arrived at the banquet venue, many colleagues in the company had already arrived, and the girls were dressed up in full costume. Qiu Yan wore a moon-white cheongsam with pink peach blossoms on the neckline, cuffs, waist and hem. A pair of teardrop-shaped jade earrings hang from the earlobe, lining the skin like clotted fat, which attracted the attention of many people as soon as they first appeared. She walked to an unobtrusive corner and looked down at the fruit and pastries in front of her, wondering which one would be better to eat first.

Wang Jing walked up to her and handed her a piece of cake, and said with a smile: "It's so beautiful!" As soon as you appeared, we all became vulgar fans. ”

Qiu Yan smiled: "I don't have the money to buy evening dresses, so I can only wear this." ”

"These earrings are so crystal clear, where did you buy them?" Wang Jing looked at Qiu Yan's earrings and asked.

Qiu Yan: "This was given to me by my grandmother, and my grandmother often said, 'Thousands of dresses up, don't look good without earrings', so I got my ears pierced when I was eight or nine years old......

"Qiu Yan, can I ask you to dance?" Han Fei's warmly invited gaze made people unbearable to refuse.

Qiu Yan looked at the dance floor in the center, there were many people dancing as a duet, "I'm really sorry, I can't dance, you can ask Wang Jing to dance." ”

The loss in Han Fei's eyes was clearly visible, and Wang Jing was so angry that he turned around and left, "Miss Ben is not uncommon to dance with him!" ”

Qiu Yan looked at Han Fei's ugly face and didn't know what to do, "Or ...... What do you teach me? ”

Han Fei's face looked a lot better, "Okay, let's go!" ”

Qiu Yan gently put his hand on Han Fei's shoulder, Han Fei carefully hugged Qiu Yan's thin waist, and both of them sweated nervously. Looking at each other, Qiu Yan avoided Han Fei's burning gaze, and said with a red face, "I may step on your foot." Han Fei smiled: "I'm not going to ask for these legs tonight." Qiu Yan smiled: "You give me more guidance, I will try not to step on you." ”

Wang Jing stood in the distance and looked at Han Fei and Qiu Yan on the dance floor with gloomy faces, Wang Yali came over to look at her and said with a smile: "Since Qiu Yan came, we have all been compared to her, and the eyes of the men revolve around her. This woman looks like a white lotus on the surface, and in my opinion, she is very ambitious. I heard that I hooked up with the president this morning, I really dare to think and do it......"

On the dance floor, Qiu Yan stepped on Han Fei's foot and just wanted to apologize, but Han Fei revealed a witty remark. Qiu Yan looked at him and smiled, his heart relaxed, and his steps became relaxed......
