Unconsciously, it was time to get off work again, but Hu Qiang did not leave immediately.

This is not only because he has an appointment with Lisa's secretary today, in fact, even if he doesn't have an appointment, Hu Qiang will deliberately get off work late now.

It's not that Hu Qiang likes to work overtime and wants to be an example for the department, but that he is now used to this way of coming early and leaving late.

Originally, it wasn't like this, but who let Hu Qiang drive to and from work some time ago, and he still drove a luxury car - Hongqi H9 limited custom Magnolia Edition!

Although he didn't drive a luxury car for a long time, it also made Hu Qiang develop a habit of coming early and leaving late.

Without him, he simply wanted to avoid his colleagues in the Ministry of Urgent Affairs, and didn't want people to know that he drove a luxury car to and from work.

However, in practice, Hu Qiang found that this kind of early and late departure also has an advantage, that is, it can avoid the morning and evening rush hours, and the road is not so crowded.

Therefore, although Hu Qiang later returned the luxury car, he usually continued to commute to work by online car-hailing, and occasionally rode a shared bicycle, but he still came early and left late.

It's good to say early, the main reason is that the biological clock is used to it, and it will wake up at the end of the day.

As for walking late, it is safer to avoid crowds, and at the same time, you can avoid being followed and not letting people know where you are currently living.

You must know that the place where Hu Qiang lives now is no longer the original dilapidated apartment, but in a high-end community like Ode to Joy Community.

The Ode to Joy community is not far from the Ten Thousand Beasts Group, no more than three kilometers, so there is no obstacle to walking a little late.

Even, if he leaves a little later, he can catch up with the meal on the way home, so he can skip home first, go to the food street near the community to eat something delicious, and then go home, so that he can save cooking and takeout.

It's too much trouble to cook, and as for ordering takeout, even if it's a good takeout, it's better to go straight to the store to eat.

Especially noodles, you have to go to the store to eat, if you order takeout, wait for someone to deliver it, the noodles are all lumpy.

If you don't say it's a super first-tier metropolis, it's all kinds of convenience, and the high-end community in a super first-tier city is even more convenient.

Let's talk about the food street near the Ode to Joy community, there is everything delicious.

Whether it's expensive French Japanese food or cheap Lanzhou ramen, there's it all here.

In addition, there are many fast food restaurants that are open 24 hours a day, so you can eat at any time.

The only bad thing is that the restaurant is a bit expensive, but for Hu Qiang today, this bit of food consumption is sprinkled with water.

In this way, more than half an hour after getting off work, and after it had begun to get dark, Hu Qiang received a WeChat message from Lisa's secretary Chrissy, saying that she was already able to get off work and made an appointment to meet in the company's underground parking lot.

After receiving the news, Hu Qiang turned off the computer, packed up his things and walked out of the manager's office.

As soon as I got out of the manager's room, I saw that there was no one in the whole big office, and it seemed that everyone had already left work.

Very good, very good!

After nodding with satisfaction, Hu Qiang walked out of the Ministry of Urgency, and then took the elevator and went directly to the second floor of the underground parking lot.

Then, Hu Qiang went straight to the address of the parking space sent by Chrissy before.

Soon, Hu Qiang came to the place and found a white BMW mini cooper parked there.

There was already someone in the car, and it was Chrissy.

Seeing Hu Qiang coming, Chrissy immediately flashed her headlights and motioned for Hu Qiang to get into the car.

This scene made Hu Qiang dazed for a while, and he had a sense of déjà vu.

At that moment, at this moment.

But soon, Hu Qiang put aside those thoughts that he shouldn't have, walked quickly to the white BMW mini cooper, opened the co-pilot's door, and got into the car directly.

As soon as Hu Qiang got into the car, Chrissy folded her hands and apologized with a smile: "I'm sorry, Manager Hu, I've kept you waiting for a long time, it's really a bit of work today, so ......"

"It's okay." Hu Qiang smiled and shook his head, "Working in Ten Thousand Beasts, it's normal to work overtime, especially if you're still Lisa's secretary, it's even more normal." Also, you don't need to call me Manager Hu in private, just call me by my English name, Qiang, it's fine. ”

"Okay, strong." Chrissy smiled and nodded.

Immediately after, Chrissy said: "Then, without further ado, you fasten your seat belts, let's hurry up and eat, I'm already a little hungry." ”

"Good!" Hu Qiang nodded, and then decisively fastened his seat belt.

Hu Qiang didn't wear a seat belt before, because he wasn't sure if Chrissy was going to take him away, maybe people changed their minds and didn't eat with him, but just talked about things in the car.

But now that Chrissy said so, it means that this meal must be eaten, so it is natural to wear a seat belt.

Fortunately, Chrissy drove quite steadily, and she was a little unhurried, and she looked like an old driver.

Because the two were not familiar with each other, along the way, the two actually didn't chat much, so they started to say a few words about the company's daily life, and then stopped talking.

After driving for about half an hour, I finally came to a hot pot restaurant.

As soon as you enter the door, you can hear the authentic Sichuan-style Mandarin of the service lady, which always reminds you that even the people here are authentic Sichuanese, so the hot pot must be an authentic Sichuan-style hot pot.

If you look at the restaurant being full of people and there are people queuing outside, you know that business is good here.

Fortunately, Chrissy has already made an appointment, and it is a reserved private room, so there is no need to queue up, just go to the private room upstairs.

After coming to the private room and taking a seat, Hu Qiang couldn't help but say: "Business here is very good." ”

Chrissy smiled: "Yes, this hot pot restaurant is very authentic, if I hadn't made an appointment in advance, and I often come here to eat, I would be familiar with the boss, otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to book a book at all." ”

At this time, the waiter who came over couldn't help asking, "What do you want for the bottom of the pot?" ”

Chrissy immediately said, "Qiang, you can choose." ”

Hu Qiang smiled, thinking that he was having a treat, and he was not polite, so he took the menu directly and looked at it, and found that there were many kinds of pot bottoms.

After choosing and choosing, Hu Qiang said: "I want this classic mandarin duck pot, Chrissy, are you okay?" ”

Chrissy smiled, "Of course it's fine. ”

Hu Qiang nodded, and then flipped through the menu again: "If you want a package, let's come to this 666 package, it's not enough to order again, how are you?" ”

In the end, Hu Qiang looked at Chrissy again.

Chrissy was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Okay, no problem." ”

Only then did Hu Qiang look at the waiter: "That's it, serve the food as soon as possible." ”

The waiter nodded, said please wait, and left with the ordering tablet.

Waiting for the waiter to leave, Hu Qiang took off his coat, hung it on the hanger, and looked at Chrissy again: "Aren't you hot?" Even if it's not hot, it's going to be hot when it's time to eat. ”

Chrissy blinked, and then suddenly stood up: "Yes, yes, look at me, I almost forgot." ”

When Chrissy took off her tweed coat, Hu Qiang took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said, "Give it to me, I'll hang it for you, you don't have to come out." ”

Chrissy smiled and nodded to Hu Qiang: "Thank you." ”

After hanging up the coat for Chriss, Hu Qiang returned to his seat and found that he had poured a cup of tea from his teacup, which was obviously poured by Chrissy just now.

Smiling slightly, Hu Qiang picked up the teacup, took a sip lightly, and then raised his head and asked, "Chrissy, there are no outsiders now, tell me, what's the matter with me?" ”

Chrissy pursed her lips and was about to speak, but found that the door of the private room was opened again, and it turned out that the waiter had come to serve the food.

As soon as she saw the waiter coming, Chrissy immediately shut up, and Hu Qiang was not in a hurry and helped the waiter set the plate.

Wait for the waiter to serve the hot pot and arrange the ingredients and dipping sauces, and then leave the fish.

As soon as the waiter left, Hu Qiang hurriedly got up and came to the dipping area of the private room, prepared a bowl of dipping sauce for himself, and helped Chrissy mix a bowl of dipping sauce.

When the dipping sauce on both sides was adjusted and the hot pot began to heat up, Hu Qiang looked at Chrissy again: "Can you say it now?" ”

Chrissy sighed, "Can't you finish your meal first?" ”

Hu Qiang smiled slightly: "I'm a person who is more anxious, you better tell me the business first, otherwise, this meal will not be delicious." ”

Chrissy put her hands into fists on the table, and after thinking for a while, she raised her head, looked at Hu Qiang and said, "Qiang, I want you to be my boyfriend." ”

"Poof!" Hu Qiang, who was drinking tea, couldn't help but tilt his head and squirt out.

Soon, Hu Qiang put down the teacup, picked up two pieces of paper to wipe his mouth, and then looked at Chrissy in surprise: "What did you say?" ”

Chrissy smiled slightly and said with interest, "I mean, I want you to be my boyfriend." ”

Hu Qiang looked at Chrissy stunned: "Are you serious?" ”

Chrissy smiled and winked playfully: "Of course seriously." ”

Hu Qiang clicked his lips: "But, but we are not familiar with it, you, this is too sudden." ”

Chrissy covered her mouth and smiled, and then said, "Hahaha, don't get me wrong, I didn't really let you be my boyfriend, I just wanted you to accompany me to play a scene and deal with my parents." ”

Hu Qiang blinked: "Huh? ”

Chrissy stroked her hair and smiled slightly: "Here's the thing, you listen to me slowly." ”

After that, Chrissy briefly stated the situation.

It turned out that Chrissy's real name was Yuan Baijie and she was a native of Luzhou, Sichuan, but after graduating in Shanghai, she stayed, and now more than ten years have passed.

That's it, the point is that now Chrissy is running four, but she is still a single dog.

Although Chrissy herself thinks it's nothing and enjoys this single life, it doesn't mean that her family doesn't think it's okay either.

In fact, when Chrissy celebrated her thirty-fifth birthday, her parents began to urge her all day long, calling her at every turn and asking her about her personal feelings, which was actually urging her to get married.

Chrissy was so annoyed that she had to excuse herself and say that she already had a boyfriend, but she was in contact with it.

Previously, Chrissy had been using this trick to shirk, and finally cleared up for a while.

Then after waiting for a while, her parents called again and wanted to meet her boyfriend by video, and she had no choice but to say that they had broken up.

In this way, in order to cope with her parents' urging to get married, Chrissy made a fake boyfriend from time to time.

Then after her parents found out, they didn't want to see the real person on video, and that boyfriend could continue to exist.

But once her parents want to see the real person, she will often shirk it first, and if she can't shirk it, she will say that she has broken up, and then after a while, she will be urged to marry, and then find a fake new boyfriend to come out and block the gun.

Around the end of last year, Chrissy pretended to find a new boyfriend in order to cope with her parents' urging to get married, and then because her parents never mentioned meeting during this period, this fake boyfriend has always existed.

Originally, Chrissy thought it was nothing, and thought that she would continue to see-saw like this.

Who knows, just yesterday afternoon, her parents suddenly came to Shanghai, and they only notified her after arriving in Shanghai and gave her a surprise attack.

Chrissy had no choice but to hurry to arrange accommodation for her parents, and then they had a meal together and exchanged heartfelt complaints.

Originally, the scene was quite touching, but her parents suddenly asked to meet her boyfriend, which made Chrissy difficult.

Chrissy realized that her parents had come over this time and said that the trip should be fake, and that they should have come to see her on purpose, especially to see her personal love life.

To be more precise, I want to see how Chrissy's boyfriend is, and see if Chrissy is cheating on them.

Chrissy originally wanted to tell the truth, but when she saw her parents' ardent expectations, she couldn't speak.

So after thinking about it, Chrissy thought of finding someone to pretend to be her boyfriend, and then found Hu Qiang.

"The story is a bit old-fashioned." Hu Qiang frowned.

Chrissy clasped her hands together and said a little embarrassedly: "It's a bit old-fashioned, but it's because this kind of thing happens more often and is more realistic, so it's old-fashioned." ”

Hu Qiang nodded: "It's the same." ”

Immediately afterwards, Hu Qiang looked at Chrissy: "But why me?" Anyway, it's all fake, you go online to find a fake boyfriend, and now this kind of service that spends money to pretend to be a boyfriend is not everywhere? ”

Chrissy smiled awkwardly: "That's so, but the kind of fake boyfriend who spends money on the Internet is a stranger after all, I don't trust it very much, let alone ......"

"What's more?" Hu Qiang asked.

Chrissy smiled embarrassedly again: "What's more, I told my parents before that my current boyfriend is my colleague, so I have to ask you for help." ”

Hu Qiang was stunned: "That's it, but even so, there are more male colleagues in our company, why are you looking for me to pretend to be your boyfriend?" ”

Chrissy blinked and said a little embarrassed: "There are many male colleagues in our company, but there are not many men who are the same age as me, but they are still single, and then what about these men who meet the standards, most of them are either bald or fat, and few are as ...... as you Handsome and dashing. ”

Hu Qiang couldn't help but raise his head: "Well, it makes sense." ”

But soon, Hu Qiang said again: "It's not right, you can find a younger one, there seem to be a lot of single men in our company in their early thirties, right?" ”

Chrissy nodded: "Theoretically, it's possible, but this time pretending to be my boyfriend to cheat on my parents, I still need two words." ”

"What two words?" Hu Qiang asked.

"Reliable!" Chrissy said.

"Reliable?"

"Yes, reliable."

Chrissy nodded and said, "Reality is not a TV series, pretending to be a couple to deceive my parents, it's not that easy."

First of all, my parents are not so easy to deceive, and they have to look reliable.

Secondly, I don't want to get the word out this time, so I have to find someone who is strict-mouthed.

Most young people in their thirties are not reliable enough, not to mention if they can deceive my parents, in case they are not strict in their mouths afterwards and tell this matter, then do I still want to be a man?

As you know, in this workplace, we are not very friendly to women.

Especially for those of us who work as secretaries for female leaders, we must pay more attention to our image.

If it was known, especially by Lisa, that I asked a colleague to pretend to be my boyfriend and cheat on my parents, then, what do you think Lisa would think?

Will she still trust me? Do you still think I'm reliable? ”

"Makes sense." Hu Qiang nodded.

But soon, Hu Qiang thought of something, and suddenly looked up at Chrissy: "Wait, won't you come to me because I am also Lisa's subordinate, and you are afraid that Lisa will be unfavorable to me if she finds out, and you know that I will definitely not tell Lisa about it?" ”

Chrissy nodded, "That's right, but, actually, I didn't think it was you at first, I wanted to ask Lenny for help." ”

"Lenny?" Hu Qiang blinked, "Lannie Fu? ”

Chrissy nodded: "Yes, Lenny has a higher position, and he is very good at trouble, so he is said to be the best candidate for a boyfriend, but ......"

"But what?" Hu Qiang asked.

Chrissy shook her head: "However, recently I found out that Lanny is having a hot fight with a female intern, so I think this person is not very reliable, and he may not be willing to help him, so I don't want to look for him, so as not to ask him but be refused, and it will be embarrassing to meet again." ”

"So you chose me?" Hu Qiang frowned and asked.

"Can't you?" Chrissy smiled.

Hu Qiang sighed, and then said, "Chrissy, thank you very much for looking up to me, but you never thought that I would refuse your proposal?" ”

Chrissy blinked, "I'm Lisa's secretary." ”

Hu Qiang was stunned: "So what? ”

Chrissy smiled slightly: "I've been with Lisa for six years, and I'm definitely Lisa's henchman."

Although I don't usually give much advice to Lisa, especially not to colleagues, if ......

Hehe, Manager Hu, there are some things you should understand. ”

Hu Qiangyi frowned: "Are you threatening me?" ”

"No, you're mistaken." Chrissy smiled, "I mean, if I say more good things about you, Lisa's senses will get better and better over time."

Moreover, I also know whether Lisa's mood is good or bad, and when you go to see Lisa in the future, if you come and ask me in advance, you may be able to get twice the result with half the effort.

Also, if Lisa gives you any task and you don't understand, you can also ask me privately.

I don't dare to say that I am the first in the company when I know Lisa, but I am definitely indispensable in the top three.

Anyway, as Lisa's secretary, I'm going to be of great help to you, don't you think? ”

Hu Qiang smiled bitterly: "Are you going to eat me?" ”

"Don't say that!" Chrissy smiled and took the initiative to pick up the teapot and poured Hu Qiang a cup of tea.

"Actually, I was forced to have no choice, so I happened to see you, so I asked you for help temporarily.

Don't worry, after dealing with my parents, when they go back, I will thank you very much.

By the way, I also invited this meal, so I should thank you in advance. ”

Hu Qiang looked at the table full of food, then looked at the bottom of the pot that was already boiling, and sighed softly:

"Sure enough, it's a good feast!"

"The beauty took the initiative to find me, it must be no good!"
