Chapter 7: Inquiry
Seeing Zhou Xiaorui ask, I raised my hand and pressed the brim of the hat on my forehead down, deliberately lowered my voice and said, "Beauty, do we know each other?" ”
When Zhou Xiaorui heard this, she paused slightly, and then looked me up and down carefully, moved her lips but didn't speak, and seemed to be a little unsure of my identity for a while.
At this time, the young man who greeted me also came over with a water glass.
"Sister Zhou." The young man greeted Zhou Xiaorui with a smile, then handed me the water cup and said, "Sir, you drink a glass of water first." ”
I nodded, took the glass and turned to the living room.
"Wait!" As soon as I took two steps, Zhou Xiaorui's cold voice came from behind me, accompanied by a few high-heeled shoe stompings.
"You're Chen Beize, right, although you have changed your dress, I remember your eyes!" Zhou Xiaorui walked in front of me, raised her head slightly and said.
I sighed helplessly, reached out and took off the cap on my head, and looked at Zhou Xiaorui with a smile.
To be honest, I really didn't expect to be recognized by Zhou Xiaorui just by one look at me, I knew it would be like this, why didn't I have nothing to do to look at her.
"Sure enough, it's you! What are you doing again? I said what I shouldn't say when you last came. If it's okay, please leave, or I'll have to call the police again. ”
I glanced sideways at the young man who was a little confused on the side, then shrugged my shoulders and replied to Zhou Xiaorui: "Manager Zhou, how do I feel that you are particularly hostile to me." In this case, can we sit down and have a good chat first? ”
Zhou Xiaorui frowned slightly, and glanced down at the lady's watch on her wrist: "Okay, then I'll give you three minutes." ”
With that, Zhou Xiaorui stepped on high heels and walked towards the living room.
When we arrived in the living room, Zhou Xiaorui and I sat on chairs face to face.
I put the water cup in my hand on the round table next to me, looked at Zhou Xiaorui seriously and said, "Manager Zhou, first of all, I apologize to you first, I didn't speak well in the morning." ”
"There's no need to apologize, just tell me the purpose of your coming this time." Zhou Xiaorui glanced at me coldly, and there was no trace of emotion in her tone.
I smiled awkwardly, "Okay, then I'll have something to say." Although the house I rented has nothing to do with your company, if that Zhou Qiang hadn't come out of your company, I wouldn't have been able to rent that house, right? So ......"
Before I finished speaking, Zhou Xiaorui raised her hand to interrupt me and said, "Mr. Chen, what do you mean?" Are you going to have our company compensate you? ”
I waved my hand: "That's not it, actually I want to ......"
Zhou Xiaorui sighed helplessly, and interrupted me again: "Mr. Chen, I said something unpleasant, don't be angry." If you weren't looking for the bargain, you wouldn't have omitted signing a rental contract. Without a rental contract, you don't have to go anywhere. ”
Being interrupted twice by Zhou Xiaorui in a row made me very unhappy for a while, but I still took a deep breath and tried to say to Zhou Xiaorui in a calm tone: "Manager Zhou, can you listen to me first?" ”
"Okay, you say."
"Actually, I didn't come here this time to talk to you about compensation, let alone trouble with your company. I came this time, I just want Manager Zhou to do me a favor and help me ask the employees of your company who saw Zhou Qiang yesterday afternoon. After all, I saw him walk out of your company with my own eyes, and that's an undeniable fact. Also, this Zhou Qiang has resigned for two years, why did he come to your company yesterday afternoon? There must be some reason for this, right? ”
I was not interrupted, and I finished what I wanted to say in one breath, which made my whole person feel a lot more comfortable.
After listening to what I said, Zhou Xiaorui frowned and thought for a moment, and then beckoned to the young man standing outside the door.
"Xiao Zhang, you ask in the company's employee group, who saw Zhou Qiang come to our company yesterday afternoon."
Xiao Zhang nodded and quickly took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
After a few seconds, Xiao Zhang put down his mobile phone and said to Zhou Xiaorui: "Sister Zhou, during this time period, most of the employees of our company are busy outside, and it is estimated that they will not be able to reply to the message for a while." ”
Zhou Xiaorui nodded, then looked at me and said lightly, "Mr. Chen, you also heard what Xiao Zhang said." I still have some important things to deal with here, so I'll lose my company first, and you can communicate with Xiao Zhang about the rest. ”
"Okay Manager Zhou, you go and get busy first, you go get busy first."
After seeing Zhou Xiaorui leave, I beckoned to Xiao Zhang and asked with a smile: "Brother, do you recognize the Zhou Qiang I just said?" ”
Xiao Zhang shook his head: "I don't know, I've only been in the company for less than half a year, but that Zhou Qiang has resigned two years ago, how can I know him." ”
"Oh, how many people are there in your company? How many employees have worked for more than two years? ”
Xiao Zhang turned his head to look at the door of the living room, then pouted and said to me: "Our company counts Sister Zhou and me, and there are only twelve employees in total. As far as I know, it seems that the only ones who have worked for more than two years are Brother Wang and Sister Li. ”
Only two people with more than two years of service?
No, it's three people, and Zhou Xiaorui's working experience is also more than two years.
Because I also saw Zhou Xiaorui in that group photo, she was standing in front of Zhou Qiang at that time.
Also, Zhou Qiang and Zhou Xiaorui are both surnamed Zhou, could they be two brothers and sisters?
As soon as the idea came to me, I immediately dismissed it.
After all, in my conversation with Zhou Xiaorui in the morning, I could see that she was not too familiar with this Zhou Qiang, and I thought about Zhou Qiang's name for a while.
Of course, it is not ruled out that this woman is deliberately acting for me.
It wasn't as if she didn't have to.
Just when I was deep in thought, Xiao Zhang suddenly coughed dryly and said to me: "Mr. Chen, Brother Wang just replied to the news, saying that he didn't see Zhou Qiang in the company yesterday afternoon. ”
"What about Sister Li?"
Xiao Zhang shook his head: "Sister Li hasn't replied to the message yet, she should take the customer to see the house and don't have time to look at the phone." ”
I nodded and was about to learn more about other things with Xiao Zhang, but Xiao Zhang took the lead and said, "Mr. Chen, I still have to contact the customer here, why don't you sit in the living room for a while?" If Sister Li responds to the message later, I'll come back to tell you? ”
Since everyone else said so, I had no choice but to smile and nod: "Okay, then you can go and get busy first." ”
