Chapter 12: Tears cannot be shed in front of those who show you a showdown
When Ning Qian stayed at the Century Hong Kong Hotel, the hotel had just opened, and both the decoration and service were very standard. Ning Qian has lived for a long time, and the faces of the staff in the lobby and floor are already very familiar. When they saw Ning Qian, they would greet her very politely, but they never talked or inquired, such a distance and scale made Ning Qian feel just right and very comfortable.
From the moment she checked in, Ning Qian was told that the hotel fee was paid directly by Youjia Hong Kong Company, and Ning Qian never knew how much money she had spent. The envelope I opened today turned out to be a bill! HK$1200 – one night! So much money - one night! Multiply that by so many days...... Oops,...... Ning Qian is really scared stupid! ……
She began to pack her belongings without a few feet, and there was only one thought in her mind: "I have to move away, I have to move away, it's such a waste of money!" She thought of the dormitory in Hong Kong, and quickly used the hotel phone to dial Li Yifan's eldest brother.
Li Yifan hadn't gotten up yet, when he heard Ning Qian on the phone, he was shocked and anxious, thinking that she was in some trouble, so he bounced up from the bed, and after hearing what she said clearly, he couldn't help laughing, and comforted her: Don't worry, don't worry, I will immediately ask Director Xu and Mr. Shi to see if you can move to the dormitory.
Before Ning Qian could clean up, Director Xu's phone call went directly to the hotel room. Director Xu was also very nervous, and eagerly asked what happened, was he embarrassed to tell Li Yifan if he was in danger, Ning Qian hurriedly explained that it was really because the room fee was too expensive and he couldn't afford it, so Director Xu put his mind at ease and said that the fee was paid by the excellent family, so Ning Qian didn't have to worry.
Ning Qian said: "Director, Youjia hasn't even entered the Chinese market, and the money spent on me will have to be earned back from the Chinese business sooner or later, and I haven't done anything for them, so I really don't dare to let them spend so much money." The director praised Xiao Ning on the phone for being sensible, and promised to let Xiao Ning move to the dormitory in Hong Kong today.
Not long after the phone with Director Xu was put down, Mr. Shi also called, and after confirming that it was really fine, he also promised Xiao Ning to move to the platinum boat dormitory quickly, so that it would be more convenient to take care of it.
Ning Qian went to work with her luggage, and told Sandra of her decision to move to the platinum boat dormitory, and asked Sandra to arrange for someone to go to the hotel to settle the bill as soon as possible, and pay an extra day for the room if she was late.
When Sandra heard that she was trying to save money, she also smiled, saying that this was a budget that had been prepared a long time ago, so there was no need to worry. Ning Qian emphasized the idea of not daring to let the excellent family spend money again.
Sandra called Mr. Fu again to discuss with him, and Mr. Fu asked Xiao Ning to listen to the phone and asked if he was dissatisfied with anything before moving to the platinum boat, and after knowing that it was really because of the cost, he explained that Sandra could let Xiao Ning move to the dormitory, but he had to make up for the accommodation and transportation expenses of the platinum boat Xiao Ning.
(Author's note: budget)
Make an appointment with Li Yifan: I came to pick up Ning Qian after work. She specially told Li Yifan not to drive, so that she could follow him on the subway and get familiar with the commuting line.
The dormitory is in Sheung Wan, one of the densely packed high-rises. Li Yifan took Ning Qian to the elevator, walked through the dark corridor, and came to an apartment. Since then, Ning Qian has really started to squeeze the subway to commute like a local.
Almost every dormitory in the Platinum Boat has the same structure: two bedrooms and one living room. When a single bed is placed in the room, there is almost nothing left of the narrow side slit where the foot falls.
The bathroom is small enough to sit on the toilet, and you can just stick out and close the door. The water from the shower is enough to bless the entire bathroom, and when people take a shower, the sink and toilet will also be flushed.
The washing machine is placed in the kitchen, and when you go in to put your clothes, you have to stand sideways, and when you stand sideways, you will wonder if you really have eaten too many snacks and gained too much weight.
The living room is the largest place in the whole room, the room is too small to accommodate a large wardrobe, and the living room has a row of shelves against the wall for hanging clothes. I don't know if it's to protect the privacy of each house, all the windows are open very small and high, and you have to look up to see the windows of other people's houses opposite.
All the windows of the whole apartment look out, and only about one-sixth of the window, which is the sky. But fortunately, although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs, and life is still very convenient.
When she is not out with sales, Ning Qian, who is also a young girl, and the three clerks in the office are always chatting together at noon while eating takeout.
Ning Qian sighed that the place where she lives now is too small, and after she finished describing, Debbie asked how many people lived, and Ning Qian was stunned for a moment: "Of course I'm alone." They looked at each other for a moment, and then suddenly began to feign and beat her. Ning Qian was startled, and while pretending to protect her head, she asked why, and they said nonsense: "You live in two rooms alone, it's too small!" Did you know that our family didn't live this big! ”
Ning Qian doesn't believe it, which shows that the people in Hong Kong TV look very spacious at home. Tracy said, "Sure, how else would you put the camera?" Let them go to my house and see if they can shoot it! Then they began to calculate the account to Ning Qian: how much transportation costs, how much does the house cost, how much does it cost to eat.
They asked Ning Qian about her living conditions in Guangzhou, and they were envious when they heard that she could live in the company's dormitory, shuttle bus, and canteen. The four of them roughly calculated the income and expenditure of different modes on both sides, and felt that the balance of each month in the end was actually about the same.
In the afternoon, he received a call from Li Yifan, saying that Luo Xia asked him for the phone number of Ning Qian's office, and he was not sure if it was convenient for her, so he wanted to ask. Although Ning Qian didn't believe what Luo Xia said since she "obeyed her words", she also wanted to hear what she wanted to say, so she asked Li Yifan to tell her.
Soon, Luo Xia called, she said that she had just returned from a trip to France, and she wanted to stay in Ningqian dormitory for one night today and return to Guangzhou tomorrow. Ning Qian felt very strange: There is obviously a vacant dormitory, if she proposes to live, the Hong Kong company will not disagree, why do you want to squeeze with me? Such a small house, even if they live in one room, it is as intimate as living in the same room, and the relationship with her is not so good, right? Although Ning Qian thought so, she was still embarrassed to refuse, so she agreed.
When I saw Luo Xia, I was really shocked: she actually dragged two large boxes that were almost half as tall as her! As soon as she entered the door, Luo Xia spread the box on the ground with great interest, opened it, and showed her various trophies, and the living room immediately had no place to put her feet.
Ning Qian quietly watched her pick up this, put down that, grab this, throw down that and "Oh, look at me, I just can't help but buy things...... "She alone can also make the whole room lively in an instant.
Luo Xia chattered for a while, and suddenly realized that Ning Qian hadn't spoken much, she took out a ball of things wrapped in paper from the box, put her hand on the small coffee table next to Ning Qian, took Ning Qian's hand, sat down, and planned to talk seriously. A familiar sense of vigilance slowly climbed up from Ning Qian's back, making her involuntarily straighten up.
"Xiao Ning, look, I haven't seen you for so long, I should have a heartfelt conversation with you."
"I've been in Hong Kong for so long, have you got a boyfriend?"
"Of course not!" Ning Qian thought to herself: You don't know my thoughts, why are you asking such a strange question.
"yes, you look like this, how can a boy like you?" – Ning Qian really wants to look in the mirror and see what she looks like.
"I'll let you see it for a long time."
Luo Xia opened the bag of things she had just put down, and it turned out to be a crushed glass handicraft.
She picked up the phone on the coffee table and started dialing.
"Where are you going? Very expensive. Ning Qian, who had always been calm, screamed in fright.
"It doesn't matter, if someone asks, you say that I beat you."
"No, no, you can't fight, it's too expensive!" Ning Qian hurriedly stretched out her hand to block the phone.
"I said you, it's just very brainless, then let me ask Li Yifan, it's okay, right?"
"Well, okay, you can ask him first."
"Li Yifan, I live here in Xiaoning, I want to make a few calls back, okay?"
"Let me say, you're so rigid, if you don't call the public phone, do you still pay for it yourself?"
Luo Xia glanced at Ning Qian and began to call the phone she wanted to make:
"Hey, Mr. Zheng, yes, it's me. Yes, I just arrived in Hong Kong, yes, I'm tired......" The call was to her biggest backer, Zheng Min of the head office.
"Oh, you know, the handicrafts I finally brought back with great difficulty were crushed, so expensive, I liked them so much, they were broken into pieces, I really felt sorry for me......"
"Buy another one? It's too expensive, and I can't bear it. ”
"You're going to ask someone to buy me another one?"
"If you can't buy it, give me a change of jewelry? Gee, that's not what I meant. ”
"Hee-hee-hee, okay, okay, see you in Beijing! MUA……”
The delicate Luo Xia, the more she talked, the more she lay down, like sugar to melt on the sofa.
Putting down the phone, she dialed another number.
"Hey, daylight?" Ning Qian's heart was suddenly pumped and shrunk into a ball.
"Oh, do you know, the handicrafts I finally brought back with great difficulty are broken, so expensive, I like them so much, they are so broken, I really feel sorry for me......
"Will you glue it up for me?"
Ning Qian really wanted to hear the voice of the day, to hear what he said.
"Oops, forget it, if it's broken, it's broken, anyway, I bought a lot of it, and there's no shortage of this one."
"Hee-hee-hee, okay, okay, see you back! MUA……”
The same delicate, the same ambiguous, Luo Xia said while deliberately glancing at Ning Qian.
What do you mean? What do you mean? Ning Qian suddenly pierced her heart with ten thousand arrows, full of holes and pain.
This is the closest time I have come to Hong Kong to daylight, and he is on the other end of the phone, should I take the phone over and ask him what is going on......
However, I still don't dare to use the company's phone to talk about my own affairs, especially emotional matters.
Luo Xia looked at Ning Qian, who was about to fall with her head down, and put down the phone.
"Xiao Ning, you also know my relationship with Zheng Min, he has always responded to my needs."
"Look at the same thing, Zheng Min's answer is to ask people to buy me another one, and Daylight's answer is to glue it for me."
"Do you know what that means?"
"Whether it is a powerful and rich man like Zheng Min, or a man like Bai Day, who has nothing but a true heart, as long as I Luo Xia wants to get it, there is nothing I can't get."
Is this a showdown?
Ning Qian immediately felt that no, no, tears could not fall, and her back straightened.
"Sister Luo, what do you want to do?"
"What do you think your sister Luo is best at?"
"You're very capable, you can do whatever you want, but you can't hurt Daylight."
"Oops, what a joke, I hurt him? He hurt me pretty much! Luo Xia suddenly became a little angry.
"What exactly did you do to the day? Why did he go to your department? ”
Ning Qian felt that since the field of the duel had been opened, she could only meet it.
"You want to hear it?" Luo Xia looked proud.
The phone rang suddenly.
Ning Qian picked up the earpiece, and when she heard the voice coming from inside, her tears that she had finally held back poured out......
Who's calling? What exactly will Luo Xia say?
