Volume XXXIII Concessions
When Lin Ye returned to the Qing family's mansion, Zhao Qixing was waiting for him at the door.
"Mr. Lin!" took the initiative to step forward, Zhao Qixing's respect for Lin Ye was from the heart: "You're here!"
"I'm sorry for the delay. Walking two steps to open the hidden door for the other party, Lin Ye apologized: "I could have come back faster." ”
"It doesn't matter, in the final analysis, it's actually Qixing who is presumptuous. Smiling with gratitude for Lin Ye's gentlemanly demeanor, Zhao Qixing raised his hand and looked at his watch: "It's only been 30 minutes since I called, Mr. Lin, you are already very fast." ”
Shaking his head slightly, indicating that the other party had not caused him trouble, Lin Ye opened his mouth and asked, "What about Miss Qing?"
"Ruolan is now in the study on the second floor. Stretching out his finger and pointing somewhere above, Zhao Qixing took a step ahead to guide Lin Ye: "In the morning, the European branch sent a lot of working documents, and Ruolan was still processing them at this time. ”
"That's it. Walking up the stairs made of marble, Lin Ye felt a little puzzled: "I see that Miss Qing seems to have always been able to work with only a computer, so for her, there should be no difference between being at home or going to the company, and in terms of office, right?"
"Mr. Lin may not be very clear. Motioning for Lin Ye to follow him to the right side of the corridor, Zhao Qixing explained: "Qing's Group has many industries. Many of these are issues that require in-person site surveys and frequent meetings, such as real estate and mining. In fact, if it were someone else, it might be possible to command remotely at home according to what Mr. Lin said, but Ruolan is a girl ......" Speaking of this, Zhao Qixing shook his head helplessly: "It's not at all like other rich children who only care about eating, drinking and having fun, and they are out-and-out natural workaholics." ”
Regarding Zhao Qixing's evaluation of Qing Ruolan's "workaholic", Lin Ye thought so. Although the contact time is not long, in Lin Ye's impression, Qing Ruolan is either working or preparing for work.
"I can't control this girl, but she seems to care about what you think. While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the door of the study. Stopping, Zhao Qixing turned to face Lin Ye, and said solemnly: "So, please Mr. Lin." ”
Lin Ye smiled bitterly when he heard this: Even you can't persuade her, why do you think I can? I and Qing Ruolan are just an employment relationship, why does she care about her own opinion? But before Lin Ye could answer, Zhao Qixing had already knocked lightly on the door. Qing Ruolan sounded a little careless "please come in" from inside the house, Zhao Qixing unscrewed the doorknob and motioned sideways for Lin Ye to enter the house.
"I can only try my best, and I can't guarantee whether it will succeed or not. As he passed by Zhao Qixing's side, Lin Ye paused slightly and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear. In the afterglow, Zhao Qixing nodded slightly, did not reply, and closed the door for Lin Ye.
Qing Ruolan at work is very engrossed. Not surprisingly, she once again forgot about the fact that there were guests in the room. Probably in order to protect her eyes, today she brought a pair of gold-rimmed anti-myopia glasses, which made her already beautiful look extra bookish. The forehead bangs fall mischievously in front of the lenses from time to time, and Qing Ruolan always gently raises her hand to put them back behind her ears. The graceful movements combined with the bright sunlight that poured into the room through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows made Qing Ruolan look bright and incomprehensible.
There were several times when he wanted to interrupt her, but Lin Ye finally held back. Fortunately, this time Qing Ruolan quickly noticed Lin Ye's existence.
"Hmm!" seems to have just dealt with a tricky document. After clicking the left mouse button with her slender fingers, Qing Ruolan stretched her waist lazily. With a small groan, she was about to raise her glass of water to moisten her lips, and she met the eyes of Lin Ye who was standing in front of the desk.
"Ah......h
"About 10 minutes ago. He had already learned about Qing Ruolan's selflessness after putting herself into work, so this time Lin Ye took the lead in completing his self-defense: "I have knocked on the door, and you have allowed me to come in." ”
“...... Oh. After tidying up the desktop that was not messy, Qing Ruolan adjusted her state: "Mr. Lin, is there something wrong?"
"Listen to Miss Zhao, are you going to officially resume work?"
Since talking in the hospital that day, Lin Ye and Qing Ruolan have hardly had any contact again. Even if they were discharged from the hospital yesterday, I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, the two took different vehicles and didn't say anything all the way.
"That's right. Pushing the glasses on the tip of her nose up, Qing Ruolan replied: "Originally, one of the reasons for my return to China this time was a job transfer. But during this time, for various reasons, I have been at home for a long time. Considering that my physical condition is still recovering, I plan to start work in earnest in the next two days. Speaking of this, Qing Ruolan smiled politely at Lin Ye: "Please ask Mr. Lin to worry more about the security work in the future." ”
Although the words were polite, Lin Ye keenly noticed that Qing Ruolan's tone no longer contained any negotiable elements, and it was a pure affirmative tone. And it can be seen that although Qing Ruolan herself wants to start working in an all-round way as soon as possible, she is not lying about her physical condition. At this time, Qing Ruolan did have a ruddy complexion, and her middle qi was also very long, and she seemed to be healthier than before she was poisoned and admitted to the hospital. But from the perspective of the guardian, out of consideration for the safety of his employer, Lin Ye still hopes that Qing Ruolan can stay at home for a longer time.
It's best to wait until you pry more information out of Filia's mouth.
"Last night, there seemed to be a lot of movement outside the house. When Lin Ye was thinking about how to persuade the other party, Qing Ruolan seemed to remember something, and asked with a little curiosity: "Did there be an explosion?"
"Uh, yes. Interrupted by his train of thought, Lin Ye was stunned, and then replied according to the unified caliber in advance: "There is a warehouse in a large shopping mall near here, and it seems that there was a fire last night. ”
"That's right. There was no doubt about him, Qing Ruolan did not continue to ask deeply. And Lin Ye, who was not good at words, didn't know how to speak after this interruption, and the two fell silent for a while.
"I thought about it. For a long time, Qing Ruolan, who refocused on the computer screen, did not raise her head: "Before I returned to China, the domestic company signed several new big contracts, and at present, almost all the manpower and material resources of the company are running around these projects. If I join in halfway at this time, it may cause the opposite effect, so ......" After a pause, Qing Ruolan continued: "So, maybe for now, it would be better for me to completely hand over my job in Europe at home." ”
Raising her head to look at Lin Ye, Qing Ruolan's eyes had a real smile for the first time since Lin Ye entered the room: "What do you think, Mr. Lin?"
