I heard you are a junior

When Liu Jinya was in a daze, Zhong Yuxiao was not in a hurry to ask, and waited quietly for the thunder outside to stop before speaking, "Are you afraid of thunder?"

Without too much concern, and without unnecessary ridicule, I just asked her calmly.

Liu Jinya listened, feeling very subtle—the tone was too ordinary, as if they had known each other for a long time.

However, she thought about it in a blink of an eye, many people who have known each other for a lifetime may not necessarily encounter the bloody things that happened between them. They have talked with the same man, lost face in the same restaurant, and felt hurt by others on the same day. The pain of betrayal is about to work in the same company, not to be an enemy as a subordinate.

"It's okay." Liu Jinya calmed down and answered calmly, "The thunder is so loud that I'm afraid I can't hear clearly."

"Oh."

"I'm sorry to call you so late." Liu Jinya cleared up her chaotic mood, cleared her throat and resumed communication with Zhong Yuxiao in a more polite and distant way, "I've thought it through, I accept that job."

"Can you go to work tomorrow?"

Go to work one day earlier and get an extra day's salary.

"Yes." Liu Jinya turned her head and swept around the messy new house, gritted her teeth, and decided to complete this huge project tonight.

"Nine o'clock, don't be late."

"OK, bye."

Zhong Yuxiao gave a "hmm", and there was a slight mouse click sound in the background.

After finishing the call, Liu Jinya breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the landline number on the call record, frowned and thought: It's so late, Zhong Yuxiao is still at work?Does she need to work overtime so late in the future?

Whether she was hungry or not, the focus of her entanglement fell on "whether the overtime package includes dinner and supper" inexplicably.

"Hey, what was I thinking again?" Liu Jinya shook her head, put away her business card, turned it over and found that there was a landline and a string of mobile phone numbers in the contact number.

This is Zhong Yuxiao's, right?

She saved the mobile phone number in the address book, put the business card back into the notepad, got up and carried the box and walked into the room.

She bought this small home on impulse.That year, she had just married Xu Rongyuan, and Xu Rongyuan's family was more generous to her in terms of money, which gave her father some ideas.Knowing her father's virtue, she told Xu Rongyuan not to help, and quickly spent all her money.

The way to spend it all is to buy a house.

Liu Jinya felt that she was quite smart at the time, and never thought about it. Later, Xu Rongyuan was obedient to his father in order to conceal the relationship with his lover.

With such a troublesome father, she felt that there was nothing strange or regretful about going out of the house, and she accepted everything numbly.

Liu Jinya is even more sad that her marriage ended in such an embarrassing way.

With this feeling of melancholy, when she tidied up the bookcase, she flipped through her reading notes.

Her handwriting is recognized as beautiful.Since she was a child, she knew that she was not smart enough, and she liked to follow the instructions of the teachers one by one.The teachers said that practicing calligraphy is important. A smart child can practice quickly, and she can write in her own style even if she finds a quick copybook. The dull one doesn’t believe that she can have that ability. She starts with regular script and then cursive script. Once, I engraved the brushwork of the great ancient calligrapher in my mind. I didn't dare to be complacent when I learned it, so I kept my head down and continued for many years without knowing it.

With plenty of time and a serious mind, Liu Jinya's reading notes are also pleasing to the eye, a thick book, and the pages make a soft and pleasant sound when they are turned.

The corners of her lips curled up when she saw it, and she was no longer sad.

However, Liu Jinya turned to the back of the page, and saw that a certain excerpt of the poem was written in a rather scribbled and unattractive manner.

Seeing Zhu Chengbi thinking one after another, haggard and scattered, I remember you.

She frowned, and found that not only was the writing ugly, but the paper was also scratched by the pen tip.

Liu Jinya looked at the date, it was the third year after marrying Xu Rongyuan, and she was used to the days when Xu Rongyuan was too busy to go home.She couldn't recall the original state of mind. Looking at the missing sentence, she could probably guess that she was in a bad mood and couldn't even concentrate on writing.

She shook her head, closed the book and put it back in the cabinet, and went to tidy the sheets and bedding.

That night, Liu Jinya went to bed early and had no dreams.

Waking up before the alarm clock rang in the morning, she dressed energetically and prepared, and even thought about buying bread downstairs by the way later. She took her bag and walked to the door only to find that the umbrella she used yesterday was lying on the ground, half wet. Half dry.

Liu Jinya sighed—how can I return it to Zhong Yuxiao?

The fabric of this umbrella is good. She was afraid that the rain would corrode it, so she went to the bathroom to wash it, and after shaking it for a long time, she was sure that it would not work for a while, so she had no choice but to give up and left it at home to go to work on foot.Every time she passed the subway entrance of a bus station, she could see office workers in a hurry, and she was faintly glad that she was one of them.

After a short walk, Liu Jinya adjusted her clothes downstairs, walked into the building where she worked and took the elevator upstairs.

The girl at the front desk already remembered her appearance, and was very happy to see her, "Morning~"

"Morning." Liu Jinya responded happily, and said redundantly, "I'm here to report."

The girl at the front desk smiled, "I know, I will be a colleague from now on."

"Yeah." After Liu Jinya said hello, she looked at other colleagues who passed by curiously, and said awkwardly, "Should I go directly to Qi Su?"

"I'm not too sure. Sister Susu hasn't come yet, so please sit down for a while."

Liu Jinya nodded, and sat in the seat she had been waiting for during the interview.

After a while, Qi Su hurried in with a big bag in her arms and saw her waving, "Good morning, come here and start working."

"Oh." Liu Jinya followed, and asked cautiously, "Do you need me to help you?"

"No, you can sit there." Qi Su led her to the place, pointing to another desk in the assistant's office.

Liu Jinya sat down obediently, watched as Qi Su put down her bag and walked towards Zhong Yuxiao's office next door with her keys in her hand, she tilted her head to look, but she didn't see anything, then saw Qi Su also tilted her head to look, "Come together .”

"Oh!" Liu Jinya followed belatedly, laughing dryly, "Sorry, I didn't realize it."

"It's okay, don't be nervous, I'm easy to talk to." Qi Su opened the office, turned on the lights, turned on the air conditioner and drew the curtains in one go, pointing to Zhong Yuxiao's position behind the desk and whispered, "But she's not easy to mess with. "

Liu Jinya pursed her lips and said nothing.

"But it's okay, I'm still here, and I can talk to you."

still?

Liu Jinya asked in surprise, "Are you leaving?"

"Well, you are here to take my place."

Liu Jinya was dumbfounded, she thought that Zhong Yuxiao had two assistants, one was Qi Su and the other was her, she never thought that this coexistence relationship would not last long.

"Why are you so surprised?" Qi Su smiled, "Didn't the manager tell you?"

Shaking her head, Liu Jinya coughed softly, "I thought... there was a seat other than yours vacant."

"No, there is only one assistant."

Liu Jinya didn't know what to say, and the pressure in her heart suddenly increased—is it too risky for Zhong Yuxiao to be willing to invite her in such a situation?

"Don't be afraid, this job is not difficult." Qi Su patted her on the shoulder in relief.

Liu Jinya pulled out a smile.

"Around 7 o'clock, the cleaning lady will come here to clean," Qi Su said, touching the edge of the table, "You take a general look, if there is anything wrong, try to fix it yourself, go to the cleaning for trouble, and it is easy to offend people."

Liu Jinya immediately wanted to record, and then realized that she followed me foolishly without a notebook.

Qi Su continued, "Turn on the air conditioner at 23 degrees, make a pot of tea, the tea leaves are in this cabinet, the water must be filtered out the first time."

Liu Jinya nodded expressionlessly, thinking that there was nothing to remember. Sure enough, this job is to do chores for Zhong Yuxiao, which is very simple.

After finishing the office, Qi Su took her back to his own office, it's more comfortable than the cubicle outside.Qi Su seemed to have work to do, so he took her to go through the formalities, showed her the company's management system, and then kept typing on the computer, so he didn't have time to talk to her.

Liu Jinya was not in the mood to read the broad and extensive management regulations. After turning a few pages, she stared at the clock on the wall in a daze, and listened to the sounds outside.

It's 10 o'clock, and Zhong Yuxiao hasn't come yet.

The air conditioner is turned on in the office for nothing, which wastes electricity and damages the environment to some extent.

Liu Jinya had just joined the job for a day, she was full and had nothing to do, and began to worry about the company's resources. She carefully glanced at the busy Qi Su, and was embarrassed to ask if she needed help for the second time. She curled her lips and looked at the computer monitor.

When she turned on the computer hard drive and studied various documents, there was the sound of the door opening outside.

"Uh," Liu Jinya glanced at the indifferent Qi Su, "it seems that the manager is here."

Qi Su looked up, "She will call us if she has something to do."

"That's it."

Liu Jinya nodded, obediently returned to her seat and prepared to continue to be in a daze, then turned her head, and the phone at hand yelled frantically.

She was startled, but Qi Su said, "Go ahead."

"Oh!" Liu Jinya picked it up, "Hello."

Zhong Yuxiao said directly, "Come here."

Then hung up.

Liu Jinya was stunned, said something to Qi Su, picked up a notebook and a pen, got up and walked to Zhong Yuxiao's office.

Knock on the door as usual, and invite in as usual. As soon as Liu Jinya entered, what she saw was Zhong Yuxiao holding a cup of hot tea and looking out at the window.

"Zhong..." She almost called her name, and changed her words dryly, "Manager, what's the matter?"

Zhong Yuxiao looked back at her, and the corners of her lips curled into a half-smile in the hot air, "Go downstairs and give me a message for someone."

"Okay." Liu Jinya memorized it carefully.

Zhong Yuxiao said, "He is holding roses, which are easy to recognize. If he brings them, he just... get lost."

roll?

Liu Jinya didn't react, the pen of the record stopped, at a loss.

"Go quickly." Zhong Yuxiao squinted, and his tone was non-negotiable.

Liu Jinya came to her senses, didn't ask any more questions, and ran down obediently.

When she got downstairs, she did easily find the person to tell, and also easily discovered that Zhong Yuxiao had dug a hole for her.

That person is none other than her ex-husband Xu Rongyuan.
