Chapter 23
In the administrative and personnel department, which was empty for a while, for some reason, Tan Lili explained Xia Xiaofu a lot of work, which made her unable to go to the roof at noon to meet with Ou Qi, and even had to work overtime at night. But in fact, it is not a very important job, it is all some data collation, including meeting minutes in the past year, file management, and so on.
Xia Xiaofu has never endured such a large workload since she came to work here, because her own administrative work is even if it is a logistics mess of the group, and there is not much technical content in the work, and it is not a department valued by the group, so compared with other departments, the work of this department is quite idle. Moreover, it stands to reason that this kind of sorting and summarizing work, because there are a lot of documents involved, it will take at least a month to be sorted out before it can be completed, but Tan Lili asked Xia Xiaofu to sort it out in a week.
Xia Xiaofu should be the most honest and obedient in the whole group, basically what the boss explains, she will do whatever she does, so she doesn't ask much, she just works hard, and even counts the meal time.
"Xiaofu, I'm so sorry to cause you to work so hard for me." Everyone else is almost gone, only Tan Lili and Xia Xiaofu are still in the office, "You also know that I am new to my post, and I am not familiar with many things, so I asked you to help me sort these out." ”
"Don't say that, Director, this is what I'm supposed to do. Originally, if you take the company's salary, you should do more. Xia Xiaofu paused the keystroke, looked up and smiled at Tan Lili and said, "Director, you are so beautiful today, are you going on a date?" ”
Tan Lili pulled the curly hair that had just been permed yesterday with her hand, pursed her lips, and said with a smile: "It's not a date, it's just to meet an old friend, I haven't seen him for many years, and I'm talking about the old days today." Eh, look at you, don't praise me, I'm a grizzled person, I have to go home to touch up my makeup and change my clothes. As she spoke, she touched the swan pendant hanging from the platinum necklace on her chest. It is two swans, bound together, and at first glance it is a token of love with some romantic emotional memories.
"Director, your necklace is so beautiful, was it given by your boyfriend?" Xia Xiaofu noticed the swan necklace that Tan Lili had been caressing and praised it.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm a single aristocrat. However, this chain I have always carried, it is very precious, it was given to me by my first love. Tan Lili said, her expression recalling a memory in the past.
"It can be seen that your first love must love you very much. My husband and I are also first love, hehe. Xia Xiaofu said with a smile, speaking of Ou Qihe, her face was full of sweetness.
Tan Lili's face darkened, but she quickly raised a faint smile and said, "What about you?" Are you also his first love? ”
When Xia Xiaofu heard this, she was thrown a stone in her heart. She didn't know how to hide her emotions, and immediately a gloomy cloud appeared on her face.
Seeing Xia Xiaofu like this, Tan Lili showed a sinister smile.
"Okay, let's not talk about it, I'm going to the appointment." After speaking, Tan Lili twisted her hips and walked away, leaving Xia Xiaofu to work overtime alone.
After the boss left, Xia Xiaofu took out her mobile phone and dialed Ou Qihe's mobile phone. She thought that according to Ou Qihe's temperament, if he knew that he was working overtime, then he would definitely bring some food he liked, and then accompany him to work overtime.
Thinking of this, Xia Xiaofu dialed the phone with joy and looked forward to it, saying, "Hey, husband!" ”。
"Eh, baby, miss me, don't you?" Ou Qihe still called her "baby" gently, which made Xia Xiaofu even more convinced that he could come over to accompany him, even if he didn't accompany him, he would come over to see him.
"Husband, I'm working overtime, and I suddenly have a lot of tasks, and I guess I'm going to be busy until late." Although she thought that Ou Qihe would definitely ask to come and see her, Xia Xiaofu was still excited, for fear that she would be disappointed.
"What's your overtime? Is it all your department working overtime, or is it just you? Ou Qihexin asked with some displeasure.
Those department managers, one by one, are idle, and they will never stretch out their hands to do things that they can let the people below do. If you can, you can't wait to eat, drink water and have to be fed, it's really a bunch of waste. The people who should work overtime the most should be them, with such a high salary as they are, and they often don't know what to ask.
Although the group often holds meetings, they are all video conferences, and Ou Qihe can see others, and others can't see him, but even so, Ou Qihe can still grasp the overall situation and gain insight into everything.
At this moment, he is in an indoor high-end western restaurant, waiting for Tan Lili to take a seat. Naturally, there are only the two of them, and the first love that Tan Lili said in her mouth, the person who gave her necklace is Ou Qihe.
To be exact, Ou Qihe was surprised that Tan Lili would call him, after all, the two had not seen each other for many years. I remember when we broke up, Ou Qihe, who was originally Tan Lili's dance partner, couldn't dance because she was injured, and when she came to visit Tan Lili once, she found that she was flirting with her new dance partner, and even stood aside for a long time, and the two didn't see it. Ou Qihe left in a bad mood, Tan Lili chased after her when she saw this, and officially proposed to break up.
During that time, Ou Qihe was the most painful time, not only did he have to give up his swan dream on the stage for many years, but his first love was empathetic and goodbye, and his father passed away. Even after many years, he couldn't get out of this predicament, until he met Xia Xiaofu, who was as moist as a peach, pink, and as warm as a bright light, which invisibly became his salvation.
"As far as I'm concerned, it's just my job, I have to sort out a year's summary of meeting minutes, as well as archival materials or something, although it's not important, but it needs to be done within a week." Xia Xiaofu didn't mean to complain, she was just stating one thing.
Ou Qihe heard this, his lips pursed into an angry line, and his eyes were dark. Although the new supervisor looked at the video and treated Xiaofu very kindly, he didn't expect to arrange so many jobs for his wife, and they were all things that didn't matter to him, which really made people feel angry. Is she deliberately making things difficult for Xia Xiaofu? If that's the case, then it seems that she won't be in that position for long.
"Xiaofu, if you don't like it, don't do it, go home, I'm not afraid of being fired, even if I don't have that job, I can support you, you know this." Ou Qihe's cold sides, his eyes were full of sincerity.
"Huh? How's that going to work? Seeing that Ou Qihe hadn't mentioned it to see her, she suddenly became depressed.
In any case, Xia Xiaofu still hopes that she can have a job, and she doesn't have to stay at home all day, just around Ou Qihe, then she will definitely feel lost.
"Well, we'll talk about that later. Baby, I still have something to do, I'll pick you up in the evening. ”
"Oh, then you have something to do, you will be busy first, I won't say it, hang up."
Ou Qihe didn't mention the meeting between himself and his first girlfriend, not intentionally concealing it, but he just felt that it was just a meeting with an ordinary friend, which was not worth mentioning. And he has a very clear division in his heart, which kind of people have a place in his heart, those who are on the edge, and which people only have a natural memory, and it doesn't hurt to remember it, and it's not a pity to forget it.
In the western restaurant, Tan Lili was dressed in a black wrap and walked in front of Ou Qihe elegantly. She is extremely fiddling, and her smile is also practiced in front of the mirror, just to let Ou Qihe see the most beautiful herself.
Seeing him, Ou Qihe beckoned, then got up, gentlemanly pulled out a chair for him, and returned to his seat.
This action is just out of courtesy.
"Hello, Qihe, long time no see. Oh, I'm sorry, I'm late, I went home on purpose to change my clothes, otherwise you'll laugh at me if you see my professional attire as a white-collar worker. Tan Lili deliberately mentioned that she had changed jobs.
"What? Don't dance anymore? Ou Qihe asked in surprise.
"Don't jump, after you left, although I still wanted to stick to it, but without your company, I felt that it was not interesting to jump or not, so I quit that job a few years ago." She paused, "By the way, I just got a job, which can be considered a promotion, and it's the administrative director of a company, how about it, not bad?" Tan Lili naturally knew who the boss of Weifeng Group was, and she wanted to deliberately say it, so that she could have a better chance of breaking up with Ou Qihe and becoming a helper in his career.
Ou Qihe suddenly realized, no wonder she felt that her appearance was a little familiar, it turned out that the new supervisor in the surveillance video was her! But did she mean to get closer? And did Xiaofu deliberately work overtime? can think of her personality, she is also simple and kind, she should not have those scheming, it is estimated that it is also a coincidence.
"It's very good, I didn't expect you to do a good job across the line."
To Tan Lili's surprise, Ou Qihe did not ask which company she worked for.
She took a sip of red wine and smiled slightly frustratedly at the corners of her mouth.
"Lily, I really didn't expect you to call me, I haven't seen you for almost ten years, come, let's raise a glass and toast the past ten years." Ou Qihe raised his glass and said.
The wine was ordered in advance by Ou Qihe because the waiting time was a little long. The waiter came, and Ou Qihe handed the menu to Tan Lili and asked her to order.
It's past ten o'clock, Xia Xiaofu weighs the workload of today, and it seems that if she keeps this progress, she can complete it within a week. She dialed Ou Qihe's phone, but the other party did not answer.
Disappointed, she rode Xiaobai and drove home alone in the dark night.
"Ma'am, you're back." Steward Ding opened the door for him, but there was laughter from men and women inside.
Xia Xiaofu looked at Steward Ding, and the other party replied, "Oh, madam, it is Mr. Dance's dance partner in the past, and the two haven't seen each other for many years." ”
Xia Xiaofu walked to the living room when she heard the sound, not only feeling sad because Ou Qihe was untrustworthy, but also feeling depressed because of the laughter of an extra woman in the family.
She walked over and went back to her room to say hello politely. But what she didn't expect was that sitting on the sofa at her home, it was Tan Lili opposite her husband.
