Chapter 41: Performance is a barometer of the boss's temper
The Mid-Autumn Festival has never called Ning Qian during the day, and from that day on, there is always a feeling of emptiness. Even in the darkest days, he knew in his heart: Ning Qian cared about him and had him in his heart, and now, the two of them seemed to be in contact more frequently than ever before, but in her heart, there were already other people who cared more about him. She told Daylight that she would secretly call Marcus's extension and listen to his voice, but she didn't want to tell him how much she missed and cared about him, because she didn't want to be looked down upon by him, and she didn't want to feel that her feelings for him were for profit. Only when Marcus himself really sees clearly, thinks clearly, and chooses her is true trust and true love.
Every time he saw these words from her, his heart was like a knife, and he didn't want to see them, and he was afraid that she would never say them to him again. He struggled to adjust his mindset, trying to see himself as her best friend, to understand and comfort her, but found that he couldn't get out of it at all. He even began to inexplicably hate Marcus, whom he had never met: why couldn't he trust her, why couldn't he take the initiative to find her? But on the other hand, he was glad that they were in such an impasse now, which meant that he still had a good chance.
For the first time in the day, I found out that love can be so tiring! Especially this kind of love that wants to move forward, but the distance of space makes people unable to do anything.
Two people, in different cities, should be easy to forget, and it won't hurt anymore, right? Didn't Marcus break up because he couldn't be in the same city as his girlfriend for many years? Then I'd better leave Shanghai! Ning Qian said to herself silently.
Indeed, Ning Qian's historical mission has been officially completed, and he is ready to return to Guangzhou to accept a new mission. Justin happened to be in Shanghai on a business trip and called to ask if she had a lot of luggage, and he came to help her get it. "Don't pretend you're here to pick me up and take me back to Guangzhou." Ning Qian teased him.
Originally, the two of them made an appointment to meet at the airport, but Justin's meeting was delayed by Bruno, and when he arrived at the airport, Ning Qian was already waiting at the boarding gate. After arriving in Guangzhou, Justin's driver came to pick him up, but let Ning Qian get naked, and directly pulled her back to the company with her luggage and rushed to the management meeting.
While the meeting was in session, Ning Qian received a call from Section Chief Liu of the General Affairs Section of the Platinum Boat, saying that it was the dormitory where she lived, and that Manager Zhu, who had been transferred from other places, had repeatedly applied to the General Affairs Section many times, and the General Affairs Section asked Ning Qian if she was willing to give it to her.
Ning Qian then remembered that this Manager Zhu had called her many times in the past few months, and each time he didn't say anything about the dormitory, but just talked to her about how painful it was for her to be separated from her husband and how inconvenient it was for her to not have a house. Ning Qian still felt strange: she was not particularly familiar with her, so why did she always call her to complain? Now I understand that this is what it meant. Section Chief Liu said very intimately: "We heard that you went to Shanghai during this time, and we haven't bothered you. Just now she heard that you are back, let us contact you, and we have discussed with you. ”
Ning Qian had long heard the people in the platinum boat discussing: This little Ning is really good at mixing, taking a capitalist salary, living in a socialist house, and enjoying the advantages of the two systems! If it was just talking about others, she wouldn't be too lazy to pay attention to it now, but Manager Zhu had to think about it seriously after spending so much effort to find her. She politely replied to Section Chief Liu that after the meeting, she would seriously consider this issue.
In the evening, when she returned to the platinum boat dormitory that had been absent for several months, Xiuwan jumped for joy when she saw her! Ning Qian cleaned up three times and divided five by two, and was about to go downstairs to eat and celebrate with Xiuwan, when Manager Zhu actually came! When she saw that the two little girls were there, she said that she didn't have a house, and her husband had to divorce her, Ning Qian felt very uncomfortable when she heard it, and felt that this was a husband, and she was going to divorce because his wife didn't have a house, so why keep it?
Seeing that Manager Zhu was so sad that tears came out, and she felt that she really couldn't destroy her happiness, Ning Qian agreed: "I can move out, but I have to give me a few days to go outside and find a house." Manager Zhu immediately burst into tears and laughed: "Xiao Ning, I have long heard that you are a good girl, and you are really reasonable!" ”
"What does it mean to be reasonable? Can you speak? Should it have been given to you? "It's actually golden autumn! It turned out that when Ning Qian was cleaning, Xiuwan had already told her that Ning Qian was back!
When Manager Zhu saw so many people, he felt that he couldn't say it, and he didn't want to say more, for fear of being besieged, so he took Ning Qian's hand and said: "Xiao Ning, just say it, I'm going to tell my husband right away, my happiness depends on you, tens of millions, please, please!" Ning Qian had to solemnly promise again. She never realized that she was so important that she had become a guarantee to maintain a marriage.
After Manager Zhu left, Xiuwan told Ning Qian that she had applied for a wedding room from the company and got it soon. The other party is the boy introduced by Luo Xing, and she will move away soon. Ning Qian was happy for her, and she was also very emotional: It seems that positive blind dates are indeed effective!
The three girls walked all the way to the restaurant of Dahongtu with laughter and laughter, and when they passed the door of Dahongtu, Ning Qian seemed to suddenly see the daylight that night, and her chest began to ache. Is this the feeling of touching the scene, seeing things and thinking about people? I'm already in love with Marcus, haven't I let go of the day? Am I a big carrot? Why do you like this one moment and that one moment? The most frustrating thing is that you can like this and that, but they don't like you!
Alas...... Ning Qian actually sighed involuntarily.
"Who did you suddenly remember?" Jin Qiu saw through Ning Qian's appearance at a glance.
"Why do I think you're so cheerful, Jin Qiu?" Ning Qian found that the Jin Qiu she saw today not only spoke more openly and loudly than before, but even laughed from the previous cautious and silent to the lively and hearty now.
"Yo, yes, you don't know that, do you?" Xiuwan smiled knowingly.
"Don't say it, don't say it, she'll know right away." Jin Qiu covered Xiuwan's mouth. This action would never have been done in the previous Jin Qiu.
What happened? Jin Qiu has changed as a person?
When I came to the restaurant, I actually entered the private room. "Jin Qiu, have you made a fortune? Let's eat, and we come to the private room? I'm not going to pay the minimum fee. Ning Qian put her arm around Jin Qiu's shoulders and began to play tricks.
"No need for you, no need for me, and no need for Xiuwan, some people are willing to pay for our three beauties." The golden autumn is triumphant.
As soon as I entered the private room, I was unexpectedly: Hong Xuantao was already sitting there waiting!
Moreover, as soon as Jin Qiu saw him, he was like a snake, and he wrapped it directly, and his two arms hugged Hong Xuantao tightly.
"Oh my God, such a big gossip, you didn't tell me!" Ning Qian couldn't accept such a cruel concealment.
"Can't you have told me sooner so that I could be a little prepared?"
"What do you want to prepare? You already knew. Jin Qiu's delicate and smug smile made her look like a peach blossom blooming in the spring breeze.
"Congratulations! When to set the wine? "Ning Qian is really happy!
"You have to wait for the daylight to come back and be my best man." The first thing Hong Xuantao said was actually this.
"Xiao Ning, you want to be my bridesmaid!" Jin Qiu, did you say this intentionally, or unintentionally? Ning Qian wanted to ask her.
Four people, one night, talked countless words, chatted countless gossip, Ning Qian, who had never been drinking, actually drank a lot of beer with them, and was almost carried back to the dormitory by Jin Qiu and Xiuwan, because she drank and drank, and fell asleep directly.
"This girl can't drink outside, it's too dangerous!" Hong Xuantao said to Bai Tian on the phone.
"Why are you letting her drink?" The day is in a hurry.
"I'm glad, I haven't seen you for so long, how much do you have to say." Hong Xuantao is indeed still immersed in today's relaxation and moving.
"I'll tell you something, don't worry too much about it." Hong Xuantao thought about it, but couldn't help but say.
Is he going to tell me about Ning Qian having a boyfriend? The day was full of anxiety.
"Xiao Ning has lost a lot of weight, I guess you may not be able to recognize her when you see her again, anyway, I was startled today, and the way I looked before, judging the two of them."
"But don't worry, it's still very good-looking!" Hong Xuantao hurriedly calmed Bai Tian.
"I'm not worried, I've always thought she's the best-looking, her eyes speak." Daylight actually blurted out.
"Haha, you kid, it's really different when you go to the UK, this kind of thing can be said, not bad! There is growth, there is growth! Hong Xuantao saw hope.
"However, she looks like she has suffered a lot of injuries, her arms, hands, and legs are all scars, and she still walks a little high and low, I don't know if she hasn't recovered yet, temporarily, or permanently." When Hong Xuantao said this, his tone became heavy.
"Huh? How so? Did she say what's going on? Did she cry out of pain? Bai Tian was surprised that Ning Qian told her everything, but she didn't mention her injury, why was she tight-lipped? She said that she has a boyfriend, is she worried that she will be hurt and drag me down, so she deliberately said this? Bai Tian suddenly felt that he had always been restless for a while, and there should be a reason.
Putting down the phone with Hong Xuantao, he immediately called Ning Qian. didn't answer, and Bai Tian remembered: Hong Xuantao said that she drank beer and immediately fell asleep on the dining table. Alas, poor man, how nice it would have been if I had been by her side!
When Ning Qian really started looking for a house, she found that she had promised too hastily: there are very few rentable houses that can be provided on the market, even if it is a dilapidated old house, it will cost nearly 5,000 yuan a month, and you have to bet three to pay three in one go, and if you don't repair it, you can't live at all! What can I do? has already promised Manager Zhu, you can't go back on your word, right? But if you grit your teeth and rent a house, it will not be enough to pay all your monthly salary in the future. Why did you fall into such a big pit as soon as you came back?
Xiao Ning agreed to move out and gave up the dormitory to Manager Zhu, and soon, even Lei Yue'er heard about it. To be on the safe side, he asked the General Affairs Department of the Platinum Boat to verify that it was true. He smiled and shook his head, and said to himself: "This Xiao Ning is really a rare person!" As soon as he returned to Lipton, he went to Justin's office next door, pretended to be gossiping, and leaked the news to him. When Justin heard this, the immediate thought was that with Aimee's current salary, where could she afford to rent a house? He hurried to find Gupta and said to Gupta: "General manager, I suggest that Aimee spend as much money as she rents a house, you can increase her salary as much as you want, if she is under such great financial pressure, she will definitely have to change jobs, if she changes jobs, what will the company do, what will we do?" ”
In fact, since returning from Shanghai last time, seeing that the business in Shanghai and Hangzhou is booming, Gupta began to regret it: what he said to Aimee and those attitudes are really ungentlemanly. He actually felt quite guilty in his heart, but he had never found a suitable opportunity to apologize to Ning Qian. Hearing Justin say this, he thought it was a good time to say to Justin, "Then you call Aimee over and let's talk to her together." ”
Gupta asked Aimee if she wanted her to move out of the dorm, and Aimee didn't want to explain that much, so she nodded.
"The platinum boat is really not like words, how can they do this?" Gupta was furious.
"Then how much do you rent a house out there now?"
Aimee replied honestly: "I've talked about it for several rounds, the minimum is three thousand seven, and if it's less than that, I really can't find it." ”
"Well, from now on, I will add three thousand seven per month, you can work in peace and don't worry about rent." Gupta made a quick decision.
"Moreover, in front of Justin today, I want to apologize to you: what I said to you in Shanghai before was extremely inappropriate, and it should not be what I should say and do as a general manager and manager, I sincerely apologize to you, and I hope that in the future, you can find that the general manager's temper is getting better and better." Gupta's eyes and tone were very sincere, not only Aimee, but even Justin was moved.
"Mr. Gupta, I've thought it out for a long time: bosses have a bad temper, basically because of poor performance and stress. If I have the ability to make all the numbers look good, my boss's face will look good. I am also convinced: your temper will get better and better. Aimee didn't look angry and resentful, and she was cold and judgmental when she was in Shanghai before, it seems that this girl's self-healing ability is too strong!
"Still, I'm curious: Is Marcus your boyfriend?" Gupta asked so seriously.
