sinking in his peril

I just saw off Teacher Huangfu, and it happened to be lunch time. The hotel's staff meals are always staggered in chronological order. Today, she had an early turn, and she entered the restaurant before eleven o'clock. Got an empty seat and went in.

It was a group of girls from the housekeeping department who were chattering, and Xiao Zhong, the foreman of Building 4, knocked his spoon on the stainless steel dinner plate and dinged: "Oh, I won't see handsome guys in the future."

Zhizhi wiped off the lipstick with a tissue, and interjected, "What handsome guy?"

"Don't you know yet? Mr. Zhong's assistant has come to the front desk to say hello, and he will be checking out in the afternoon." Someone replied to her, followed by a sigh.

Zhizhi almost choked on the food in her mouth: "Why didn't anyone tell me?" As usual, she should pay a return visit when such a heavyweight customer checks out—as if in response to this sentence, the phone was in the next second Ring, let her go at once.

The coconut milk had just been unsealed, she took a sip, and slid it into her stomach coldly, feeling a little uncomfortable for a moment, she hurriedly put the spoon down, and then remembered why she had to abuse her stomach, and this moment was not too bad.She looked around and didn't see Ling Tianen, so she asked, "Where's Ling Tianen? How are you feeling today?" She spoke softly, almost whispering into the foreman's ear.

Xiao Zhong nodded: "It's pretty good, she took the initiative to change shifts with me today, saying that she is not hungry, and will have dinner later." She sighed again: "It's really unlucky for her to meet such a customer."

Zhizhi suddenly lost her appetite, remembered her work, put on her coat, and dived into the cold wind.

When we arrived at Building No. 4, the glass doors suddenly blocked the cold wind outside, making people feel warm.The carpet is still soft and dense, and the sharp high-heeled shoes can't get in without stepping on it.Zhizhi went to the work room first. No one was there. She dialed the phone to Zhong Ruoxi's room. It took him a long time to answer, but her tone was a little strange to her, so she was distracted for a few seconds before remembering to say: "Mr. Zhong? I'm Xu Zhizhi. "

There seemed to be a little stunned over there, and after an "oh", he didn't speak anymore.Zhizhi quickly explained why he came and asked if he was free.

Zhong Ruoxi hesitated for a moment, and just said, "Come up."

She stood in front of the door and was about to ring the doorbell, but the brown door was pulled open. Ling Tianen came out with his head down. Seeing her looking a bit embarrassed, he called out "Manager Li" in a low voice and ran away sideways.

Zhizhi turned her head to look at her back, feeling a little strange, and forgot that the door was slightly open—the man sitting inside called out to her: "Come in."

Zhizhi looked around, and it was clear that it was not time to clean up in the afternoon, and the suite was still as if it hadn’t been used, exuding a cold atmosphere——she had seen many rooms, but there were people living in them, or clothes all over the floor, or A table of snacks, although messy, is not lacking in vitality.She was surprised that she forgot to speak and frowned slightly.

"What's the matter?" Finally, he reminded her and handed her a glass of warm water.

"Mr. Zhong, do you want to check out?" Zhizhi glanced at her. He didn't look at her, and seemed to be frowning. "As usual, I should pay a visit to see if you have any comments on the hotel."

"As usual?" He suddenly smiled, "Zhizhi, how can you always be so polite to me?"

Zhizhi lowered her head, thinking that luckily she didn't drink any water, otherwise she might have choked her throat with a sip of water.

"If you asked me as a friend, maybe I would be happier." Zhong Ruoxi saw her fingers, white and slender, holding the cup tightly, "I live in Xiucheng now, it's that simple—— I am very satisfied with Nandai’s service.”

If she hadn't known where his home was that night, she might have smashed the cup on the ground with a bang, so at this moment, Zhizhi just responded calmly and stood up: "Mr. Zhong, then I'm leaving. "She just stood up, but sat down again, and cast her eyes directly on his face: "Just...what happened?"

She has always been smart, these things are just connected in the mind like lightning, the incident that happened a few days ago, his hesitation on the phone, Ling Tianen's expression... She has normal emotional intelligence and reasoning ability, but Girls have always been sensitive to these tiny little clues. If possible, she really didn't want to ask about them, but she was also afraid—fearing that if the little girl didn't grasp the scales well, everything would be difficult to deal with.

Zhong Ruoxi's expression was a little subtle. In front of her, she seemed to be a little bit embarrassed. Then she calmly smiled and said, "What do you want to ask me? You guessed it." Just now he was not without surprise when he saw that The little girl who was an intern came to find me, but after saying those words, I just made myself smile bitterly, and finally poured water for her, but I didn't know how to respond to the young and sweet girl.

He wanted to thank Xu Zhizhi for a phone call, which resolved the atmosphere at the right time, so he had no choice but to say: "Manager Li is coming up." Like a frightened little white rabbit, Ling Tianen hurried out, he only breathed a sigh of relief in his heart , I just felt that the embarrassment of speaking was saved.But at this moment, when she asked him what happened, she was more embarrassed than before.

Zhizhi didn't say much, and sighed: "Mr. Zhong, she is still young, and she always doesn't know how to deal with her feelings. You...don't mind."

He shook his head: "I understand." The handsome expression was a little tired, after thinking for a while, he finally said that sentence: "Young age is never an excuse, what do you think?"

The car drove slowly towards Ruiming's building along with the long traffic flow——Zhong Ruoxi suddenly felt that she had lost her patience, and couldn't help but want to scold the damn traffic.He was different from that day. On that day, he was sitting next to her, and the air was filled with her freshness. He deliberately said to go to EMBRACE because he knew that the clubhouse was so far away, and he could be in the warm and private space of the car. spend more time alone.Later, without turning his head to look at her, he knew that the warmth was gradually disappearing—it was replaced by a feeling of hunger. He suppressed a smile and proposed to get out of the car and eat something casually. Why didn't he see her secretly delighted eyes, thinking I couldn't help but smile at the corner of my mouth—after thinking about it, I was really negligent. Since I wanted her to treat me, I actually said to go to EMBRACE—I am afraid that she will never invite herself to dinner after saying anything.It's just that his words just now were like a reminder, she seemed to have been peeped into her mind, she left in a hurry, and even forgot to say goodbye.He habitually stretched out his hands to prop his forehead, and looked out the car window thoughtfully, just as the red dust was billowing.

Notices for the next year's competition for middle and senior management positions are posted on the employee bulletin board.It's about time after the calculation, Zhizhi glanced at it and walked to the office.Xu You walked up quickly and said hello: "Manager Li."

Zhizhi responded with a smile: "Good morning."

"What position are you planning to apply for this time?" There was a hint of gunpowder in her words.

Zhizhi smiled and didn't answer.In fact, everyone knows well that the manager of the housekeeping department is about to retire, and the new group of young managers will keep their eyes on this vacancy—for the hotel, the housekeeping department is still the most important department.Zhizhi's nonchalant attitude made Xu You believe that she had full confidence in her heart.Fortunately, the administrative building was right in front of us, so Zhizhi laughed and escaped on the pretext of morning inspection.
