Chapter 43: The Ruthless Hand
"I'll show you the papers."
Xue Rin'an didn't explain much, so he brought the document to read.
Fu Nanxian briefly talked about the communication with that party, and then went out.
He wandered out to find Jiang Jianing.
As soon as he came out, Mi Shan greeted him and asked with a smile, "Fu Shao, what do you need?"
"No, I don't."
Fu Nanxian's gaze didn't stay on Mi Shan's face for long, and he walked out with his pockets in his pockets.
He stopped Wu Kai.
"Where's Secretary Jiang?"
"Business Department."
Jiang Jianing came to the business department, and the deputy manager asked someone to take her to the workstation.
"Well, here it is."
Jiang Jianing saw a seat next to the utility room, backlit, full of unused folders and materials, and the seat was covered with a layer of dust.
She looked at the person leading the way, "Can someone sit here?"
"Aren't you just a human being, just wipe it all over the place, and you don't go to work to enjoy the blessings."
Jiang Jianing didn't argue with anyone much, so he put the box on the ground, went to the utility room to find a rag, and went to tidy up the workstation.
She went to the bathroom to wash the rags and heard someone chatting inside.
"It's flat, isn't it?"
"What a flat tone, demoted."
"You don't want to think about how much salary and bonus the first assistant with Mr. Xue is, who he comes into contact with, and who he comes into contact with as a small salesman in the business department now."
"There's no comparison, that's the equivalent of ...... Exiled."
"It's worse than expatriate."
"It's okay to be sent abroad, so what Secretary Chen, isn't he sent to other places, but also a small director of a branch."
After the two colleagues came out, they saw this "miserable" person washing rags, looked at each other, and hurriedly went out regardless of whether what they had just said was heard.
Jiang Jianing tidied up his workstation all morning, and went to the logistics to get the book and the all-in-one computer, which was tidied up close to noon.
The backlight here, the light is not very good, and it is far away from the glass window, so there is no sunlight, and there is some dampness.
Jiang Jianing directly bought a table lamp online and bought a dehumidification bag.
In her eyes, nothing can be solved.
In the utility room, she also found a potted plant that had been discarded.
A small cactus.
It was planted with a mug, and the soil had dried up and cracked, and it was impossible to tell if the cactus ball was dead.
Jiang Jianing picked up the cactus, watered it, and put it on his workstation.
And just like that, her work began in a new environment.
When sorting out the materials in the afternoon, Jiang Jianing's mobile phone suddenly buzzed.
She thought it was a message reminder, took out her mobile phone and glanced at it, stunned.
It's a time reminder on the calendar.
[Today is Mom's birthday, don't forget ^_^ it]
This reminder has been set for several years.
She especially remembers that when she first entered college, she forgot because she was busy, so she set up this reminder.
She silently turned off the ringer reminder and put away her phone.
After getting off work, Jiang Jianing still went to the mall.
She chose a scarf for a long time at the counter.
She parked the car directly in the alley outside the door before walking towards the mansion.
The cold wind was bleak, and Jiang Jianing raised his collar.
Dead leaves on the ground make a rustling sound.
Now, many years later, walking in the streets and alleys behind the mansion, those past experiences are like a marquee, shuttling in front of me.
She shuddered.
I don't know if it's cold.
Today is Mrs. Du's birthday, and the Xu family also held a small banquet and parked a lot of luxury cars in the parking lot.
The security guard at the door stopped Jiang Jianing,
Ask her to show the invitation.
Jiang Jianing pursed her lips: "I didn't."
"Then I'm sorry, you can't get in."
Jiang Jianing stood at the door and did not move.
A bitter smile welled up in the corners of her lips.
She, a daughter, came to celebrate her mother's birthday, but was stopped outside by a piece of paper, which is really ironic.
"Didi."
The car behind honked its horn, and the security guard told Jiang Jianing to move to the side and not get in the way.
The headlights shone on Jiang Jianing's eyes, and she turned her head sideways to avoid the direct light and moved away from the road.
Jiang Jianing put on her hood, walked to the corner of the leeward wall, rubbed her frozen hands, and dialed Ms. Du's phone with her fingers.
The busy tone inside the earpiece is elongated.
In the end, it comes down to the first line.
No one answered.
Through a courtyard wall, you can hear the sound of laughter, singing and dancing coming from the main building hall, as if it is separated by a prison cage.
Suddenly, someone tapped him on the shoulder.
Jiang Jianing almost reflexively held the arm on his shoulder with his backhand, and with a strong backhand, he kicked hard in the crook of the opponent's knee and pushed the person against the wall.
Bang.
The man hit his head against the wall.
Shen Shen was defenseless at all.
He went in the car just now, and saw from the window that the door looked like Jiang Jianing, so he got out of the car and came out to take a look.
At this time, he screamed in pain, "I said Sister Jianing, you are ruthless."
Jiang Jianing was stunned when he heard the voice.
She hurriedly let go of Shen Shen, "I'm sorry, Shen Gongzi, I thought it was ......" She paused, and there was a moment of trance in her eyes, "Bad guy."
"You're fast enough to react to stress," Shen Shen rubbed his shoulders, "Have you practiced?"
"No, I'll use these two self-defense techniques."
"The girl is out alone, she should learn a few self-defense techniques, and she blames me," Shen Shen patted the ashes on his body, "I followed you to see you on the phone just now, so I didn't call someone first, if I was also shocked."
Shen Shen's words relieved Jiang Jianing's embarrassment to a certain extent.
Jiang Jianing's gaze crossed behind Shen Shen, and another car drove in, with dazzling headlights.
She suddenly raised her head and asked, "Young Master Shen, can you take me in?"
Shen Shen came on behalf of the Shen family, and it was easy to bring someone in.
At this birthday party, many powerful people came.
On the surface, it was said that it was to celebrate Du Qingling's birthday, but in fact, it was only because of the face of the Xu family.
Du Qingling has no children under her knees, and this huge family business will sooner or later fall into the hands of other descendants of the Xu family, where will it be her turn to get half of it.
But the elegance of this woman, even in front of the dignitary, is not half a point of stage fright, but can deal with it with ease.
Xue Rin'an arrived, and first asked Wu Kai to send the gift in the name of Mrs. Xue.
Du Qingling personally thanked him.
Xue Rin'an came to the Xu family this time, without a female companion, not even a female secretary, only a Wu Kai.
There were a few women next to me chatting in private.
"Didn't you say that Xue Shao had a hot fight with his ex-girlfriend? Why didn't you bring it?"
"You can't bring a woman to the door and slap your in-laws in the face."
"It's been so many years, can you still count the relatives you set before? You see, the two have been silent for the past few years, maybe they will have dispersed a long time ago."
"Isn't that because the Xu family hasn't returned to China yet, it looks like it's coming back, so it's time to put it on the agenda."
"Eh, don't you see that is Xiao Gongzi Shen?"
"Who's that woman next to him? It's pretty good."
"I haven't seen it."
A few glances fell on Shen Shen, who was dressed in formal clothes, and the woman beside him.
