Chapter 517: Not as squeamish as you think
The fate between people is really wonderful.
When Lu Xingchen met Xu Shimo at the door of the pharmacy, this sentence came to his heart.
Who would have thought that the country of R is so big, they would meet by chance in different places for two consecutive days, isn't this fate?
"Miss Lu, so coincidentally, we met again." Xu Shimo looked at Lu Xingchen gently and smiled faintly.
Today, he wore a white casual jacket with a light-colored striped shirt underneath, a pair of black slacks, and a pair of rimless glasses.
Lu Xingchen was naturally happy to meet her compatriots in a foreign country, especially when she was in urgent need of a translator, it was like seeing a savior.
"Dr. Xu, it's really nice to see you!" Her eyes lit up, "That's right, my boyfriend has a fever, I came to the pharmacy to buy him some medicine, but I don't really know much about the medicine in country R, so can you ask this professional for a favor?" ”
"Of course," Xu Shimo's smile was still gentle, and he glanced at the pharmacy, "Then, let's go in." ”
……
Xu Shimo briefly asked a few words about Ji Jinyan's symptoms of illness, and after listening to Lu Xingchen's detailed description, he only thought for a few seconds, then took a box of capsules and a box of granules from the medicine shelf, and handed them to her, "These two can probably be used together, which can probably reduce the symptoms." The specific method of taking it is written in this manual, and I think Mr. Ji should be able to understand it, so I won't repeat it. ”
Lu Xingchen hurriedly stretched out her hand to take it, nodded again and again, and said with a smile as she walked in the direction of the cashier, "Okay, thank you so much, Doctor Xu." ”
When Xu Shimo heard this, he smiled helplessly: "It's just a gesture." By the way, you don't have to call me Dr. Xu all the time, I am Xiaoqin's eldest brother, 5 years older than him, if you don't dislike it, you can also call me Brother Xu. ”
"Of course not." Lu Xingchen subconsciously took out his mobile phone and clicked on Alipay, planning to pay with his mobile phone.
At this time, the clerk looked at her with an embarrassed face and said something she didn't understand at all.
Lu Xingchen: "......" was confused.
She reflexively looked at the man beside her, her expression confused, very cute.
Xu Shimo couldn't help but smile, took out his wallet from his pants pocket, took out a banknote from country R and handed it to the clerk, and then explained: "Mobile phone payment is not supported here. ”
Lu Xingchen smiled awkwardly: "......"
Shame on you!
Out of the door of the pharmacy, Lu Xingchen said to Xu Shimo and asked him to tell her the Alipay account so that she could give him the money to buy medicine.
Xu Shimo smiled indifferently and refused, "It's just a few dozen pieces, why worry about it." ”
"That's not good," she insisted, "I'm not used to owing people something, let alone dozens of dollars, even if it's a few dollars, then I have to pay it back, otherwise my conscience will be disturbed." ”
Xu Shimo sighed, and wanted to say something, but then his phone rang, he picked it up, and he didn't know what the other party said, only to see that his face suddenly changed greatly, and his handsome face became extremely heavy.
After hanging up the phone, he only said to Lu Xingchen, "I have something urgent, I'll go first", then hailed a taxi on the side of the road and left.
Lu Xingchen: "......"
Forget it, she should transfer the money to Xu Qin first, and then let Xu Qin transfer it to him.
……
Back at the residence, as soon as Lu Xingchen entered the door, he smelled a fragrance coming from the kitchen.
She was stunned for a few seconds, walked over to take a look, and saw that Ji Jinyan, who was supposed to be on bed rest, was cooking noodles in the kitchen, he was wearing a home clothes, and he was hanging his head and stirring the noodles in the pot.
Xu heard her footsteps, he turned his head and glanced at her, his eyes fell on the medicine she was carrying, "Back?" ”
Lu Xingchen nodded, only then did he notice that he was still wearing a mask. She casually put the medicine aside, walked up to him and snatched the chopsticks from his hand without saying a word, "You are a patient, don't rest well, what are you tossing." ”
This tone is like a housekeeper's wife.
Chef Ji, who was robbed of the position of the chef: "......"
"I'm not as squeamish as you think." He hooked his lips helplessly.
Through the mask, the voice sounded muffled.
Lu Xingchen pushed him out, "You go take medicine first." ”
Ji Jinyan leaned against the door of the kitchen, looked at her with her arms folded for two seconds, and for a moment, chuckled, "Don't burn the kitchen." ”
Lu Xingchen, who was adjusting the heat: "......"
How does this sound so familiar?
Dropping such a sentence, President Ji, who was still wearing a mask in a fever, went out with medicine Shi Shiran.
……
Simple egg ramen, but it is difficult for Lu Xingchen.
Soon, two steaming bowls of ramen were served.
Ji Jinyan just finished taking the medicine, put the box of capsules and granules on the table, and asked, "You chose these medicines yourself?" ”
Lu Xingchen sandwiched a basket of noodles, exhaled hot air, and raised his eyebrows at him when he heard the words, pretending to be mysterious: "The professionals helped me choose." ”
"Who?" He glanced at her, "Pharmacy clerk?" ”
"No, no, no." She shook her head, "Do you remember Xu Shimo we met yesterday?" As it happens, he happened to be around here, and we happened to meet again, so I asked him to help me pick out two boxes of medicine for your symptoms. ”
Ji Jinyan's hand stirring the noodles paused slightly, he didn't know what he thought, his eyes darkened, "Really?" ”
"Yes," she continued, not noticing his strangeness, "and he paid for the medicine for me." I'm used to paying with my mobile phone, and I forgot to bring money when I went out just now. ”
Ji Jinyan's expression had returned to normal, and he raised his eyebrows slightly, "Well, going out without money really seems to be something that a fool can do." ”
She was angry, "Ji Jinyan! ”
He glanced at her again, covered his mouth and coughed lightly, "Eat noodles." ”
“…… Okay. ”
Forget it, who made him a patient, don't worry about him for the time being.
————
As soon as he finished eating the noodles, Ji Jinyan answered a long-distance phone call, which was from Huaguo.
Lu Xingchen vaguely heard that something was going on within the Yan Group, and after several shareholders and directors discussed to no avail, Liang Qiaowen had no choice but to call Ji Jinyan.
Lu Xingchen sat cross-legged on the two-seater sofa, scrolling through Weibo, reading the comments of sand sculpture netizens, and listening to the remote guidance of a certain president on the single sofa next to him to his employees.
- "Since they are leaving, let them go." Yan never forced any employee to stay. ”
- "Take away important customers and company secrets? Oh, they can try. ”
- "As for the grassroots employees you mentioned, don't think too much about it, just dismiss them." ”
- "I've given them a chance. ”
- "Well, that's how to deal with it first. I will return to China in about 2 days, and I will go back to the company to give an explanation to the shareholders at that time. ”
- "That's it, hang up first." ”
……
"Ji Jinyan, has your company encountered any problems?" Lu Xingchen held his mobile phone in one hand and stared at him with clear eyes.
"Well, there's a little bit of a problem." Ji Jinyan put his phone on the coffee table, "Yan has always had a competitor, and they have been poaching Yan's senior employees and senior management in large numbers lately. ”
When Lu Xingchen heard this, he was taken aback, "What should I do then?" Also, I just heard you mention that grassroots employees are dismissed, what is going on? ”
"Yan hired two employees to be in charge of external work last year, and it was recently discovered that they were privately connected with people from competing companies."
"They're selling company secrets?" Lu Xingchen's eyes widened, "This is too lacking in virtue!" Doesn't their conscience hurt?! Too bad for them! ”
"What company secrets can they get," compared to her excitement, Ji Jinyan seemed leisurely, he narrowed his eyes, "The company has long found out that they have had close contacts with people from rival companies, and now the information that they can access can be disclosed to the public." ”
"But what about the executives who were poached?" Lu Xingchen hugged his mobile phone, his eyebrows frowned slightly, "They are the senior leaders of the group, and they must know well about some of the future development strategies and plans of your group, if they ......"
"What are you worried about?" Before she finished speaking, she taught him to interrupt softly, and he stared at her deeply, his eyes clear, "What? Can't you trust me? ”
Lu Xingchen was dumbfounded, and shook his head.
She had always believed in him.
Although she doesn't understand the things in the mall, people say that the mall is like a battlefield, and now that several of his executives have been poached, it is equivalent to a few generals on the battlefield who have defected, which is almost a fatal blow.
"That's right!" She seemed to think of something, and her eyes lit up, "Ji Jinyan, I remember that you seem to be able to predict the future, right?" Did you foresee that Yan would eventually get through this? ”
Ji Jinyan glanced at her, and at the beginning, it was just an expedient measure to tell her that she could see what would happen in the future in advance.
But now, Lu Xingchen seems to be full of faith.
That's fine......
"Well, I saw it." Ji Jinyan said, "Later, the rival company collapsed. ”
"Huh?" She was confused, "Why?" ”
Ji Jinyan: "Haven't you heard that the secret of heaven cannot be revealed? ”
Lu Xingchen: "......"
If you don't say it, forget it, she snorted slightly, and buried her head in her mobile phone Weibo again.
