Chapter 164: Her Employer
There are four people in a dormitory, and all three of them have companions, and only Tan Man is still single.
Especially after attending the wedding of Yi Aijia and Jiang Yuzhi.
Su Xiaoyan looked at Tan Man's lonely appearance, and clamored to introduce her to a companion.
Tan Man said that it's good for her to live alone, isn't it fragrant to be beautiful alone?
However, there is an old saying that the flag should not be set too early, or it will be a slap in the face.
Because she met, that person.
Employer.
Tan Man finished typing the word 'Gu Mochen' in the search box, pressed the enter key, and the first search result that popped up on the screen was his encyclopedia business card.
Gu Mochen, born in S City, is a partner of Jingcheng Law Firm, a senior lawyer, graduated from Q University Law School with a master's degree, and is a young elite in the legal and political circles. He specializes in litigation and arbitration, intellectual property, international trade and other civil and commercial legal affairs. In 2014, he was awarded the "Time Weekly" Person of the Times, in 2015, he was awarded the "Lawyer" magazine's charismatic person of the year, and the title of "Perspective" magazine's legal newcomer king......"
In the encyclopedia business card, in addition to the profile of the person who blows to the sky, a photo of the ID photo type is also attached.
Tan Man couldn't help but sigh, what else could a person who could take a photo of a celebrity like a celebrity photo if he wasn't God's darling?
This is a cold and confident face that she had seen during her internship at UNICEF China, when he brought a young boy to participate in an art therapy programme organized by UNICEF to care for children with autism.
A handsome man in his thirties, with an autistic child, appeared in the crowd, which was too abrupt and unforgettable.
The mobile phone rang, it was a string of unfamiliar numbers, the place of belonging, S City.
"Hello, who?" Tan Man habitually put the phone in his left ear.
"Is it Miss Tan Man?"
A deep, magnetic male voice came from the phone, speaking in a calm and polite tone.
"Yes, are you ......?"
"I'm Gu Mochen, and Professor Zhang introduced you to me."
That's right, her dear Professor Zhang took over a private job for her two days ago, that is, the child counselor of Gu Mochen's family, and received the electronic version of the labor contract in the morning.
"Oh, it's Lawyer Gu, hello!"
"Hello, I called to ask Miss Tan, in addition to the content mentioned in the contract, are there any other requirements that need to be added?"
"Hire me directly? Aren't you going to have an interview? ”
Tan Man was surprised by the other party's determination, after all, his salary was 20,000 yuan per month, and the working hours were only a few hours from after she got off work to when the children fell asleep at night.
"I have read your resume, graduated from F University with a major in child psychology, and is currently working at Pok Oi Special Education School, I believe in Professor Zhang's vision." The other party paused, "If you have to have an interview, then may I ask Miss Tan, what would you do in the face of a child who is already six years old but can't eat independently?" ”
Tan Man was stunned on the other end of the phone for a moment: "Six-year-old child, there should be no problem with eating independently, right?" ”
The other party was silent for two seconds, and she heard a chuckle: "I believe that you can make him eat independently." ”
“……”
"Starting today, is that okay?"
"Today?!"
"If it doesn't work, it can be tomorrow."
Tan Man thought to herself, are most men with successful careers habitually preempting the dominant position?
"Then today, I'm free."
After hanging up the phone, she soon received a new email from Gu Mochen, which contained the basic information of the patient.
Name: Gu Xiaobei
Gender: Male
Age: Six years old
Autism Detection Time: Three years
Symptoms: See Basic Symptoms of Autism
……
Isn't it, what do you mean by 'symptoms, see Basic Symptoms of Autism'?!
Tan Man browsed it, and the information given by this guardian was pitiful, and it was estimated that the last one was a little constructive, 'Cause of illness: premature birth in less than one month'.
She looked at the computer screen and habitually poked her head with the pen she held in her right hand.
……
The address given by Gu Mochen is a high-end community in the center of S.
The security of the community is very tight, and when she came to the gate, she was directly stopped, but within a few seconds, the security guard politely opened the door for her, and a middle-aged woman in her early fifties greeted her warmly.
This middle-aged woman, who speaks an authentic local dialect, is said to be the aunt of the lawyer's family, surnamed Chen, who is responsible for the daily life of her children on weekdays.
The community is very large, and it took a while to go around and around before entering one of the buildings, Tan Man felt that the next time, she would still get lost.
Gu Mochen's house was on the twenty-ninth floor, and when he pushed the door in, a smell of rice came to his nose, and the cold tones of black, white and gray declared that this was a man's territory.
The house is very spacious, with simple decoration, exquisite furniture, and rows of floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, which can take in the night view of the river at the beginning of the lanterns.
Tan Man couldn't help but sigh secretly, it turned out that the riverview mansion looked like this.
On the floor next to the dining table, a little boy sits, quietly fiddling with the Rubik's Cube in his hand, and when he saw a stranger appear, he just glanced up, and was immersed in his own world as if nothing had happened.
"Xiaobei, there are new friends at home, say hello to my beautiful sister!" Aunt Chen said.
The little boy ignored him as if he hadn't heard.
Tan Man pulled Aunt Chen and said with a smile: "It's okay." ”
Aunt Chen brought out a cup of tea from the kitchen and handed it to her, Tan Man thanked her, and asked, "Isn't there anyone else at home?" ”
"Lawyer Gu has a party tonight, it is estimated that he will come back very late, usually there are only children and him at home, I am just responsible for cleaning and cooking, if Lawyer Gu is not free, I will also go to the kindergarten for him to pick up Xiaobei, and when he gets home, I will get off work."
"Where's Mrs. Gu?" Tan Man saw her face blindfolded, and said, "It's the child's mother, is it...... Divorced? Tan Man asked.
Aunt Chen burst out laughing: "Lawyer Gu is single, and he hasn't even seen a girlfriend with him, so how can there be any Mrs. Gu." ”
This time, Tan Man was surprised: "There is no wife, then this child ......"
"Xiaobei is Lawyer Gu's younger brother." Aunt Chen smiled.
"Brother?!"
"Their ages are really misleading, I only know that they are half-brothers, and I don't want to ask much about the rest, after all, it's privacy."
Tan Man nodded, looking at Xiaobei on the ground, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, white and clean, and his silhouette was indeed somewhat similar to the man named Gu Mochen, but it was more delicate and soft, not as cold as it looked in his brother's photo.
Aunt Chen took a piece of information from the side and handed it to her: "This list is what children usually like to eat, play, and taboo, and it should be noted that Lawyer Gu asked me to bring it to you." ”
Tan Man took it and quickly browsed it, the details were very detailed, and the man's intentions were revealed between the lines, which was not at all like the email he sent during the day.
"This lawyer Gu is quite attentive."
"Not only attentive, but also good to people, a while ago my nephew was injured on the construction site, he also helped a lot with compensation, I don't understand the outside things, it is said that he is a powerful lawyer, hey, he is too busy, he is not at home all day, but if it is not like that, how can he live in this house, how much does this lot cost."
"However, don't look at the lawyer politely, but get along with him, you can't do it casually, in short, the food must be according to his requirements, you look at this, these things have to be bought according to the brand he specified, not only expensive but also difficult to find, and ordinary supermarkets can't buy it."
Aunt Chen pointed to the contents, which were Xiaobei's daily necessities, and she glanced at the brand, which was indeed expensive.
Tan Man smiled, in fact, when she looked around the house, she had already noticed that the owner of the house was estimated to have obsessive-compulsive disorder tendencies, everything in the house was neatly arranged, there was a large bookcase by the wall of the living room by the door, the books were neatly arranged in alphabetical order of the title, from high to low, and the furnishings of other home accessories were also paired.
"Then Xiaobei spends most of his time with you?"
"Lawyer Gu really doesn't have much time to take care of him, but he is a man who is not married and has no children, and he is concerned enough about this child, as long as he comes back to Xiaobei and doesn't sleep, he coaxes him, and the child is sick, and he will try it whenever he has the opportunity."
After Aunt Chen finished speaking, she took Xiaobei's special children's tableware and filled a bowl of soup and prepared to feed her.
Looking at Xiaobei who was persistently twisting the Rubik's Cube in front of him, Diandian guessed that the failure of treatment had a lot to do with the family structure and lack of family affection, and the child spent most of his time facing an aunt in her fifties who was like a grandmother's age, and the only brother was busy with work, and it was reasonable that the treatment effect was not good.
……
Tan Man observed Xiaobei for one night, from feeding Aunt Chen, to bathing him, coaxing him to sleep, no more than three words came out of his mouth, eating and falling asleep, are two big problems, not to mention the time, and it is not conducive to the health of children.
Aunt Chen went out to answer the phone and walked back in a hurry: "Miss Situ, I may have to trouble you to wait here for Lawyer Gu to come back before leaving, my daughter has just been sent to the hospital and is about to enter the delivery room." ”
"It's okay, you can go quickly!" After Tan Man finished speaking, he didn't forget to smile and congratulate, "Congratulations on becoming a grandmother!" ”
"Thank you, Mr. Gu is probably coming back soon!"
"It doesn't matter, you go quickly, be careful on the road!"
After Aunt Chen left, Tan Man stayed in Xiaobei's room.
She looked around the child's room, there were not many books in the bookcase, but it was full of all kinds of novel and high-end toys, and there was no pillow book at the head of the bed, but a story machine in the shape of a jingle cat's head, Tan Man studied these high-tech products with great interest, and then took out a notebook from her bag and recorded the observation of the first day.
I don't know how long later, the electronic lock of the door was opened with a "drop", followed by a chaotic footsteps, and she immediately put down what she was holding and walked out of the room.
By the gate, two men stood there, their movements tangled and twisted, their suits and shirts ravaged a little embarrassed, one of the bespectacled men staggering on the other unconscious man.
The man with glasses looked surprised when he saw Tan Man, and Tan Man naturally stayed in place with his eyes wide open.
I saw the man with glasses apologize: "Mrs. Gu, I'm sorry, Lawyer Gu was drunk tonight, and you have to take care of it!" ”
Mrs. Gu?!
Tan Man was dumbfounded, and was about to explain, when the drunk man slid to the ground with a "snap".
"Eh, be careful......"
didn't have time to say anything, he finally got the person on the bed, the man with glasses turned around and said that something was wrong, and left immediately, leaving Tan Man stupidly in the room.
