Chapter 8: [Can't Parry]

Zhou Huaiyu gave Xia Chengyou the entire third floor to live in, and said that those painting tools could be placed at will, and he would hardly go up to the third floor anyway.

Xia Chengyou looked around the third floor, there were two bedrooms, a study, a piano room, a utility room, and a room where there was nothing in it.

It took a few hours to finally pack everything up. Xia Chengyou was so tired that he lay on the ground panting.

Closing his eyes for a while, he suddenly heard low and deep footsteps, he opened his eyes slightly, and saw Zhou Huaiyu's tall figure standing beside him. Looking up at each other from the perspective of lying down, he felt that Zhou Huaiyu was terrifyingly tall.

"Why don't you wear pants?" Zhou Huaiyu looked down on him condescendingly.

Xia Chengyou only wore the shirt he wore during the day to go to the interview, and he thought that the trousers were too hot, so he took them off directly. Two long, white, straight legs were exposed. He explained: "You said you barely went up to the third floor, so I wore it casually. ”

Zhou Huaiyu grimaced, his gaze swept over his legs. Change the subject: "Come with me to the company tomorrow or go by yourself?" ”

"I'll go by myself!" Xia Chengyou immediately said, "I don't want my colleagues to think that I'm just a weak relation." I want to try to prove myself, and when they approve of me, I'll make our relationship public. Can you cooperate with me? When he said it, he felt like he was having an office romance.

"How can I cooperate with you?" Zhou Huaiyu clasped his arms with both hands.

Xia Chengyou stood up and gently pinched his sleeve with his fingers: "You just pretend you don't know me." In the company, it's just a subordinate relationship. Is it good? ”

"......" Zhou Huaiyu didn't look very happy.

Xia Chengyou showed his signature smile: "Please, you're the best." ”

Zhou Huaiyu's goosebumps rose, and he took a step back and kept his distance from Xia Chengyou. Since he was a child, as soon as Xia Chengyou was coquettish, he had no way. Now that Xia Chengyou, a one-meter-eight boy, is coquettish with him, he is even more overwhelmed.

"Alright, got it." Zhou Huaiyu threw down this sentence and walked away.

Xia Chengyou said behind him, "Thank you." ”

·

The next morning, Xia Chengyou still made breakfast and ate it with Zhou Huaiyu.

Today's breakfast is a little richer than yesterday, with chives and ham omelets, wine-stuffed dumplings, cheese thick egg roast, and oatmeal porridge with shrimp.

Seeing that Zhou Huaiyu had eaten a little more than yesterday, although he still hadn't finished eating, Xia Chengyou was still happy in his heart. After all, if the person you like can eat your own food, you will feel a sense of satisfaction in your heart.

After breakfast, Zhou Huaiyu drove to the company by himself. Xia Chengyou took a taxi to work.

In the end, the two entered the company one after the other.

"Mr. Zhou is early."

"Mr. Zhou is early."

"Mr. Zhou is good."

Xia Chengyou would greet the employees when they saw Zhou Huaiyu. So his heart moved, walked up quickly, and when he passed by Zhou Huaiyu, he said, "Good morning, Mr. Zhou!" ”

Zhou Huaiyu glanced at him. Xia Chengyou hurriedly lowered his head and trotted into the elevator.

Zhou Huaiyu was the last to come in the elevator. When he came in, all the noise of talking had stopped, and it was extremely quiet.

The company has only eight floors at its highest, but each floor is very large. The CEO's office is on the eighth floor. And Xia Chengyou's art department is on the seventh floor.

Employees from other departments walked out of the elevator one after another, and when the elevator stopped on the seventh floor, Xia Chengyou walked out, looked back at Zhou Huaiyu, and then walked to the department.

It's a strange feeling, working in the same company as someone you like. I can see it every day. This is not only a sweet gift for Xia Chengyou, but also a torment.

When the art director saw the new employee coming, his eyes lit up and asked, "Little handsome guy, are you a new original artist?" ”

"Uh-huh, hello, my name is Xia Chengyou." Xia Chengyou said.

The art director was a woman in her forties, dressed fashionably and with elaborate makeup. It exudes the charm of a mature woman. Even though he is not young, his charm is invincible. And he seems to be a very nice person to get along with. She smiled and said, "I'm the art director of Youyu, just call me Sister Mu." ”

"Sister Mu is good." Xia Chengyou shouted obediently.

Sister Mu raised her hand and clapped her hands at everyone: "Let's stop the work at hand and introduce the newcomer to everyone." ”

So those colleagues who were immersed in painting all looked over, and their eyes fell on Xia Chengyou, looking back and forth on his face and body. There is a light of appreciation in his eyes, as if he is appreciating a handsome guy.

Xia Chengyou showed a generous smile, handsome and eye-catching. Said to everyone: "Hello everyone, my name is Xia Chengyou, I am very happy to be a colleague with you, please give me more advice." ”

"Welcome, welcome!"

"There's a handsome guy!"

"I have a reason to wear makeup at work."

"Finally, I don't have to look at you stinky men every day."

"Cut!"

Everyone said a word, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Sister Mu pointed to the workstation near the corridor: "Cheng You, you can sit in this position." As soon as you enter the art department, you can see you, and you are now the grass of our art department, with a unique face. ”

"Uh...... Good. Xia Chengyou sat down in a prominent position. I have the illusion that I am a vase.

Sister Mu asked everyone to continue working, and then said to a girl next to Xia Chengyou's workstation: "Ah Fei, you can take care of Chengyou more, and tell him about the company's situation and so on." Give him a little bit of your work and let him get used to it. ”

"Okay, Sister Mu." Ah Fei smiled in response. She has short shoulder-length hair, black-rimmed eyes, and wears a cotton shirt, baggy jeans, and a pair of slippers on her feet. It looks very casual and lazy.

After Sister Mu left, everyone's eyes fell on Xia Chengyou again. Some walked over directly and gathered around his workstation.

"Handsome guy, how old are you?"

Xia Chengyou: "26 years old. ”

"Wow, it's the same age as our Mr. Zhou. You're so young, I thought it wouldn't be long after graduating from college. ”

Xia Chengyou: "He is three months older than me. ”

Everyone was stunned: "How do you know?" ”

Xia Chengyou hurriedly explained: "Oh me, I saw it on Baidu Encyclopedia." ”

"Oooh. I see. ”

"Handsome guy, do you have a girlfriend?"

Xia Chengyou was a little shy to ask surrounded by everyone, touching his pen, a little nervous, he didn't plan to come out with his colleagues, so he said, "No." I'm not going to look for it yet. ”

"Handsome guy, newcomers are always going to have a treat on their first day."

Xia Chengyou: "Treat? Oh yes, yes. ”

Fei: "Alright, don't tease him. Quickly dispersed and went to paint. ”

Everyone smiled and returned to their workstations.

Ah Fei said to Xia Chengyou: "Don't pay attention to them, paint well, and ask me if you don't understand anything." ”

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Although Ah Fei said that he didn't need to pay attention to the treats said by these colleagues, Xia Chengyou still felt that he was a newcomer, and there must be a lot of things that he didn't understand and needed to ask everyone, and he should have a treat and eat.

So he counted the almost thirty-five people in the department, and ordered milk tea on his mobile phone, ah, more than 700.

There are more than 20 days left before the next month's salary, and I only have about 1,000 yuan in savings. If you don't borrow money, you're really going to die of poverty.

After thinking about it again, Xia Chengyou sent a message to Zhou Huaiyu: [Can you lend me a thousand yuan? I would like to invite my colleagues to drink milk tea. 】

[It's okay if you don't want to borrow, don't be angry with me. 】

[If you borrow it, I will give you double it.] 】

It took three minutes to receive a response to the message.

Zhou Huaiyu directly transferred 1,000 yuan to him.

Xia Chengyou clicked to collect money, and was in a good mood. Zhou Huaiyu will still lend him money. It shows that the relationship between the two is a little closer.

When he was still studying in the past, Zhou Huaiyu had a lot of pocket money, and he always couldn't use it up. And his pocket money as a foodie is always insufficient, so Zhou Huaiyu's pocket money was spent by him.

At that time, the relationship between the two was so good that Zhou Huaiyu's money was his money, and he didn't have to pay back Zhou Huaiyu's money.

Of course, even if the relationship between the two has been pulled in a lot, it can't go back to the point where you don't have to pay back your money. Even if you are a brother, you have to settle accounts.

Xia Chengyou bought forty cups of milk tea, and the extra cups were spared. He beckoned everyone to come and get milk tea.

Everyone is not a twister, and they all laugh and come over to get it.

"Thank you, Abu Grass!"

"Our top card is really generous."

"Thank you for the milk tea."

Ah Fei drank milk tea: "You are really treated, you are so sincere." ”

Xia Chengyou said with a smile: "When you first arrive, you should be treated." ”

Suddenly, the chubby boy sitting by the window said, "When we talk about treats, we actually mean eating, hahaha." ”

"Shut up, Shrimp Lee, it's good to invite you to drink milk tea. You're so fat that you're still eating, no wonder you can't find a girlfriend. Ah Fei scolded him.

Suddenly, a voice came, clear with a hint of frivolity: "Why are you so lively?" ”

Xia Chengyou looked up and saw a man in a casual suit walking over gracefully. He is very tall, almost 1.87 meters. He has a good figure, a shirt with bulging chest and pectoral muscles, and his legs are long and powerful. Walk with the wind.

He is also very handsome, and he has a pair of amorous peach blossom eyes when he smiles, which is very charming. But it's not very serious, and there is a kind of romantic temperament.

Ah Fei leaned into Xia Chengyou's ear and whispered: "He is Shang Yixin, the head of the R&D department, and he is always a college classmate with our Zhou." Together with four other college classmates, he invested in Mr. Zhou's 'Youyu' company, and now they are all major shareholders. But the other four shareholders rarely come to the company, each has its own main business, and only Shang Yixin works in the company. Just call him Mr. Shang. ”

"It's always good." Xia Chengyou shouted.

Shang Yixin's gaze fell on his face, his right eyebrow was slightly raised, and he rested one hand on the table: "You are the new original artist?" ”

"Uh-huh. My name is Xia Chengyou. "Xia Chengyou.

The corners of Shang Yixin's mouth hooked up a smile: "It's quite cute." ”

Xia Chengyou was a little cramped, how could this person be so unserious, praising him in front of so many people for being a cute boy of 1.8 meters. For a man who is already twenty-six years old, "cute" is not a positive word. He prefers to be praised for his masculinity.

He picked up a cup of milk tea and walked over and handed it to Shang Yixin: "Does Mr. Shang drink milk tea?" ”

Shang Yixin looked down at the milk tea in his hand: "This thing is too sweet, it's not suitable for me, it's quite suitable for you." ”

There are colleagues around who are covering their mouths and laughing.

Xia Chengyou had the illusion that he had been molested, so he took back the milk tea handed out and put it back in embarrassment.

Ah Fei leaned into Xia Chengyou's ear and said, "Don't mind, Mr. Shang likes to joke like this." Most of the time it's not serious, but it's still serious when it's serious. ”

"Nope." Xia Chengyou sat back at his desk. He's not someone who can't afford to joke either. When he used to be an art teacher in high school, his students always liked to joke with him, and they had to introduce him to boyfriends.

Shang Yiyan entered the art director's office.

A colleague said to Xia Chengyou: "Don't mind the grass, Mr. Shang is that kind of character." Don't look at him joking with you now, maybe he'll murder you in the next second. He's also quite scary. ”

"Got it, thanks for the reminder." Xia Chengyou.

He thinks this milk tea is worth buying. I wondered if I would like to invite everyone to dinner in the evening, so that I would officially integrate into the collective.

But there's no money.

Xia Chengyou sent a message to Zhou Huaiyu again: [Can you lend me another 5,000 yuan? I would like to invite my colleagues to dinner in the evening. 】

This time, Zhou Huaiyu replied quickly: [Treat me as an ATM? 】

Xia Chengyou: [I'll pay you back when I pay your salary.] 】

Zhou Huaiyu: [Deduct it directly from your salary.] 】

Xia Chengyou: [That's also ...... Yes. 】

Zhou Huaiyu transferred 5,000 yuan to him.

After Xia Chengyou received the money, he asked: [Which word do you think is more suitable for me, 'cute' or 'masculine'? 】

Zhou Huaiyu: [I don't answer this kind of mentally retarded question. 】

Zhou Huaiyu: [You fish in front of the boss? 】

Xia Chengyou was so frightened that he hurriedly put down his phone and concentrated on drawing.

At noon, colleagues went to the canteen on the third floor one after another to eat. Ah Fei and a few other little girls went to the cafeteria around Xia Chengyou.

They told Xia Chengyou which dishes in the canteen were delicious and which dishes were unpalatable. Which master does not tremble, which master is the most fierce.

There are quite a lot of people who come to the canteen to eat, and the queue has to wait for about ten minutes. Fortunately, there was enough time for the lunch break, two hours, which was completely enough.

Suddenly, Xia Chengyou received the news. It was sent by Zhou Huaiyu: [Come and sit in front of me later. 】

Xia Chengyou's first reaction when he saw this news was overjoyed, but then he was embarrassed again. Reply: [But we said that it was good that the company pretended not to know each other.] 】

Although I really want to eat with Zhou Huaiyu, this will make people misunderstand what he has to do with Zhou Huaiyu.

Zhou Huaiyu: [Come to my office to eat.] 】

Xia Chengyou was faintly looking forward to it. can actually go to Zhou Huaiyu's office for dinner, so that he can spend a short time with Zhou Huaiyu in a space. So I replied: [Good boss jpg.] A very dog-legged emoji.
