Chapter 64: Cold Rejection
This coffee brews as before, bitter with a hint of sweetness.
As for the bitterness, I'm afraid it's just that she didn't brew it with a flannel strainer, and the amount of ground coffee is generally between 10 and 12 grams, and she doesn't seem to pay attention to the amount every time, putting 12 grams to 13 grams, although it doesn't seem that the difference is much. But in fact, there is also a lot of knowledge in brewing coffee, as long as there is a part that is not so standard, maybe the brewed coffee will become sour.
If you look at it this way, Hu Peici is just a little bitter, and it's okay.
As for the sweetness, the bitterness of the coffee stopped after he put down the cup, and when he looked up at her beautiful face, he didn't feel bitter, and there was a different kind of sweetness on his body.
That kind of sweetness is something that no one else can replace, and only she can give it.
After taking a sip, Wu Shengjun put down his coffee and looked at the documents on the table.
"President, will it take a long time to drink coffee this time?" Hu Peici asked softly.
She had to choose whether she would stand here and wait for a while, or sit directly on the sofa and wait, according to Wu Shengjun's answer. If she did this often, she thought, she was afraid that the sofa in this office would be a regular visitor.
"What do you think?" Wu Shengjun glanced at her, and then explained seriously, "Drinking coffee is like tasting tea, tea has the sweetness of tea, and coffee also has the unique taste of coffee, these are all to be tasted with heart." It's not as casual as drinking a glass of water. ”
"Oh." Hu Peici nodded as if she didn't understand, she only knew about tea and wine, but she had never heard of anyone who wanted to drink coffee so seriously, so she was lonely and unheard.
After speaking, she pointed to the sofa over there and asked, "President, I'll take the position over there."
Although she knew that Wu Shengjun must agree, there should still be a process.
Sure enough, Wu Shengjun nodded and said, "Here, you are all free, you don't need to ask me."
"Okay." Looking at Wu Shengjun, who was working on the documents with his head down, Hu Peici nodded lightly, and then walked over there.
Leaning on the soft sofa, this is a very boring moment, except for Wu Shengjun over there, there seems to be nothing fun here. And you can't play with your phone when you're in the company, although it's not very strict. But if you dare to play with your mobile phone here with the company's direct president, you will be considered dead.
Hu Peici had to casually flip through a magazine on the bookshelf over there and read it, he said just now, here, she has to be casual and leave him alone. It's just that she's worried that, at the level of his coffee drinker, if it takes a month, will she be so bored that she reads all the magazines here?
Fortunately, Wu Shengjun didn't finish drinking slowly this time, fortunately, she looked at him halfway, otherwise he drank without a sound, and she didn't know at all.
"Finished drinking? Can I take it away, then? Hu Peici walked to Wu Shengjun's side and asked first.
"Wait." Wu Shengjun said while looking at the computer.
"Is there something wrong?" Hu Peici frowned slightly and looked at Wu Shengjun.
Wu Shengjun put down the work at hand, then looked at her and said, "There is one more thing to ask your opinion."
"My opinion?" Hu Peici couldn't help but smile, it turned out that he still knew to ask her opinion. It seems that he has enough confidence to make a decision about everything, just like last night and this morning, he has obviously made a decision a long time ago, but he still pretends to tell her in advance that he listens to her, he is a liar.
But now in the company, he is her direct boss, she naturally can't say bad things about him in front of him, otherwise, although she doesn't have to worry about dismissal, he won't fire her, but her salary may not be able to keep. Now the salary is her weakness.
"Yes, tomorrow is a good birthday party for the CEO of the company, would you like to go with me as my female companion?" Wu Shengjun asked her seriously.
"Female companion." Hu Peici lowered her eyes, then was silent for a few seconds, but still shook her head, "I don't want to." ”
To be his female companion, at least you must have a certain family background, or have a special relationship with him. But she's just a little assistant, why is she with him? Now that she is standing with him, she must be out of place.
Wu Shengjun's deep eyes stared at Hu Peici for a few seconds, and then asked solemnly, "Why?"
"No, nothing, I just don't want to go, I still have work tomorrow." Hu Peici lowered her head, not daring to look at his eyes, she just thought about it, and felt that his eyes should be very scary, and even looking at it might have a sense of guilt. Even now, she has a sense of guilt.
But obviously, she has nothing to do with him except for work, isn't it normal not to accompany him?
"Since you are accompanying me to the banquet and tomorrow's work, I can naturally arrange someone else, and your salary will be the same, the same as going to work." Wu Shengjun explained.
Hu Peici explained: "I, I'm just an assistant to you, as your female companion, attending other people's banquets, which sounds strange. Why don't you find a lady who is right with you and someone who can set you off. I don't like to be busy, so I'm even less interested in such a banquet. ”
"What if I say it's for me? Are you interested? Also, you are my personal assistant, and there is nothing wrong with my personal assistant accompanying me to the banquet, on the contrary, it is a normal thing. ”
Hu Peici subconsciously muttered: "I'm even less interested in it for you."
"What did you say?" Wu Shengjun Wu Shengjun frowned and asked.
Hu Peici immediately waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, in short, I want to stay in the company and work, there are still many jobs waiting for me outside." If the president wants to find a female partner, it is better to find someone else, I am not the best candidate. ”
After speaking, Hu Peici went to serve the empty coffee quilt cup and prepared to go out.
Wu Shengjun immediately stopped her in a stern and cold voice: "Hu Peici!"
Hu Peici immediately stopped, although there was nothing wrong with him calling her like this, but he used to call her Peici, and he suddenly called her by her full name, she was a little unaccustomed to it.
She turned to look at him and didn't speak.
Wu Shengjun closed her eyes, she still didn't accept him so much, she didn't even want to accompany him to a small banquet. For so many days, she didn't even give him the slightest response, and all he waited for was a cold refusal.
