surface light

I love you babe.

Xu Ziqin calmed down after drinking a glass of ice water in the tea room.Outside the window, there were many tall buildings and criss-crossing roads. After he lit a cigarette and finished smoking, the unexpected kiss lingered in his mind.

Xiao Zhang patted him on the shoulder with the folder in his arms, and his body shook.

"Mr. Xu, the list of marketing personnel you want." Xiao Zhang smiled kindly.

In his early forties, he has no airs in dealing with others, and is calm no matter whether he is old or new. This is Kevin's evaluation of Xiao Zhang.

Of course, because of this, everyone thought he was easy to bully, so they all followed the leader and called him Xiao Zhang.

Xu Ziqin took the document, raised his eyes just in time to meet the employee who was looking at him, and then he finished smoking the cigarette in one breath and stuffed it into the ashtray.

The box was brand new, not to mention the ashes, not even the cigarette butts.

"Smoking is not allowed in the tea room?" Xu Ziqin threw the cigarette butt into the trash can.

"Boss Bai doesn't allow it, he said that he will be fined three hundred for one slap..." Xiao Zhang covered his palms and muttered in a low voice, "But he always likes to smack in the office."

Xu Ziqin: ...

Only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the common people are not allowed to light the lamps, which seems to be something his character can do. Xu Ziqin took out his mobile phone and typed a line, shook the phone at Xiao Zhang, took the document and left.

Xiao Zhang's WeChat was shocked.

Wechat transfer 300 yuan, with a message attached at the bottom.

[Mr. Xu: Give me a copy of the company regulations. 】

Xiao Zhang was flustered at once, and suddenly felt that Mr. Xu had offended him just after he came here today.

There is a fine and a public announcement system. Although Mr. Xu didn't say it clearly, he made it clear that he was dissatisfied with him.

However, this is really the leadership PUA that he made up in his own brain. Xu Ziqin didn't think of that level at all. He simply had to adapt and integrate quickly when he first joined the company.

Xu Ziqin circled around outside his office several times, unresolved.

It's not right to knock on the door and go in, and it's not good to stay outside, it's extremely embarrassing.

It's not that I don't have an office, so I have to stay here and not leave?

You are free, I have other things to do!I want to quickly familiarize myself with the business and personnel list of the company's marketing department, and the company's articles of association must be kept in mind.

After all, he is also a returnee!Although returnees don't have much reputation these days, he has a good face, and he doesn't want to be said that he is not capable and go through the back door.

But then again, even if you don't go through the back door, it's still easy for Xu Ziqin to apply for a marketing director in other companies based on Xu Ziqin's knowledge of himself.

Just after twelve o'clock, his stomach started to revolt. The employees got up on the hour and nodded to him as they passed by. They either went to the cafeteria downstairs to buy food, or went to the lobby on the first floor to pick up takeaway.

Kevin stepped on high-heeled shoes to rush to the elevator, Xu Ziqin called her to stop.

"President Xu, why are you reading materials outside? Isn't the office uncomfortable?"

Kevin's eyes were sharp, and he saw the traces of opening the documents in Xu Ziqin's hand at a glance. The other employees didn't say anything, but she could see through it at a glance.

"Very good, I'm very satisfied." Xu Ziqin hid the document behind his back, his expression calm. "I'll go downstairs for dinner with you."

"Ah?" Kevin looked shocked, nervously pushed open the door of the deputy director's office, and then closed the door again holding his breath.

On the other hand, Xu Ziqin on the other side hid himself like a thief, for fear that Bai Jiang would see him through the gap.

Kevin opened the takeaway software and pushed it to Xu Ziqin; "Boss Bai asked me to order takeaway for two people an hour ago, and I was going down to get it."

Xu Ziqin followed her calmly, Quan Dang didn't know: "Director Bai is really healthy."

"I'm wondering too." Kevin shook his head in disbelief, "Usually I was asked to bring meals to the restaurant downstairs, but today I actually ordered takeaway, and they only ordered Nanjing dishes. Doesn't he love Sichuan cuisine?"

Nanjing cuisine, two servings, Xu Ziqin realized it, and immediately followed Director Ren to get off the elevator, and fled.

He didn't want to eat with this ice cube face, which would affect his appetite.

"Xu Ziqin, come in!" The deputy director's office roared in the air.

He was stunned for a moment, trying to pretend he didn't hear, and get off the elevator with the staff.But the elevator was overweight, packed like a can of sardines, and one had to go down.

So, everyone looked at the deputy director eagerly, and Kevin pushed him unknowingly: "Mr. Xu, Mr. Bai called you, goodbye."

Kevin, the daring female assistant, actually pressed the elevator button in front of Xu Ziqin.

The door was slowly closed, and everyone's hearts hanging in their throats finally fell.

Almost everyone in the company has experienced the nightmare of being lectured by Director Bai at mealtimes. Originally, the clock-in time for work in the morning was already enough to be aggrieved, and it was finally possible to have a meal and replenish energy.

How can you still be in the mood to eat when you are scolded by the boss at the meal time?The last day was wrinkled and depressed.

Everyone in the elevator was full of sympathy for Mr. Xu, but Director Ren pointed it out: "Fuck your heart, do your job well, why do you care about Mr. Xu! Can Xiaobai always abuse him?!"

Fifteen minutes later, Xu Ziqin was sitting on the sofa in his office, staring at Bai Jiang motionlessly, wishing he could put a sack on him and kill him.

As soon as the door knocked, Kevin brought in the takeaway with a smile on his face, stacked the food and lunch boxes by category, then took out the bowls and chopsticks from the disinfection cabinet in a familiar way, put the vegetables in clean bowls again, and put the bamboo chopsticks on a flat surface. Let go before bowing out.

During the whole process, Bai Jiang was flipping through files and processing work news on the computer without raising his head.

Kevin turned back to the door, leaving a gap, yelled "It's time to eat", and disappeared without a trace, for fear that Director Bai would catch her braid.

Xu Ziqin looked at the dishes on the tea table with perfect color and strong aroma, and his mouth watered.

Salted duck, squirrel mandarin fish, rice steamed meat, white fish in chicken sauce, and two snacks: sweet-scented osmanthus and taro seedlings.

After his stomach growled three times, he covered his stomach and glanced at Bai Jiang who was meticulously reading the documents.

Bai Jiang rolled his eyelids: "You looked at me three times, and only once at the dishes on the table. Am I more eye-catching than Nanjing dishes?"

Xu Ziqin: ...

Bai Jiang finished sorting out the materials and closed the folder.

Kevin sent the contract in halfway and signed it. Seeing that the food on the coffee table hadn't moved, it was not easy to ask. He looked at Mr. Xu's pitiful eyes with distress, full of affection.

Half an hour ago, she heard Mr. Xu's stomach growling.Being only allowed to look at a table of dishes but not eat them is simply a great torture in the world.

After silently sympathizing with Mr. Xu, she slandered the ruthless Mr. Bai.

Kevin closed the door and left, Bai Jiang sat back on the sofa with great interest, and glanced at Xu Ziqin who was sitting beside him.

Xu Ziqin remembered the words interrupted by Kevin when he entered the door: "You like this office very much, I will change it with you. You work here, and I will go to your office, okay?"

"Want to be promoted so soon?" Bai Jiang picked up a portion of sweet-scented osmanthus taro seedlings, took a spoonful, touched Xu Ziqin's mouth, and wanted to feed him.

Xu Ziqin turned her head arrogantly, and was about to get up to leave when he grabbed her wrist, but to no avail, she was dragged to sit down again.

"Director Bai, answer my question directly." Xu Ziqin didn't want to play around with him, every time Bai Jiang always had various reasons to stop him.

"Okay." Bai Jiang took a sip by himself, and said in a relaxed and happy manner, "No."

Xu Ziqin: ...

Xu Ziqin tilted his head to the side to get angry, and Bai Jiang scooped up a spoonful of sweet-scented osmanthus taro seedlings: "Want to hear the reason? Take a bite and I'll tell you."

Xu Ziqin was furious: "You are still the same way as before, but it's a pity that I..."

Before he could finish speaking, a spoonful of dessert was stuffed into his mouth.The ice was cold, and he didn't say the second half of the sentence, so he had to shut up and swallowed the sweet-scented osmanthus and taro seedlings vaguely.

The taste is not bad, and the mood has improved.

"You still eat the same thing, right?" Bai Jiang covered his mouth after finishing speaking, "Have a good meal, I haven't eaten with you for a long time."

Xu Ziqin just wanted to fill his stomach quickly and leave this ghostly place. After lunch in the afternoon, he would send a message to Xiao Zhang immediately, and change his position. He is also happy.

However, Director Bai, who had been serving him food, was smiling the whole time, as if he had seen through his psychology long ago.

Suddenly the corner of his mouth slanted, and he smiled charmingly: "Xiao Zhang will not change offices for you."

Xu Ziqin guessed that Bai Jiang, who is not a man, would use his position to suppress him: "You want to threaten him again? I'll go and tell Uncle Fu, you go and threaten your boss, and see if he can dismiss you."

Bai Jiang felt a sweetness in his heart. Sure enough, Xu Ziqin seemed mature and steady in the past five years, but his mentality was still as naive as before. He liked to make small reports and even sued others, which made him even more cute.

Bai Jiang thoughtfully wiped the rice grains from the corner of his mouth, Xu Ziqin's ears turned red, and he turned his head away.

"You misunderstood, even if I don't tell Xiao Zhang, he won't agree." Bai Jiang drank his saliva, "First, you are now the next CEO in everyone's mind, and they are all eager to please you. , how could it be possible for you to condescend to sit and work with ordinary employees?"

Xu Ziqin: ...

The next CEO?They were really thinking in the long run, Xu Ziqin himself never thought of this day.

Bai Jiang handed Xu Ziqin a glass of water: "Of course, the most important thing is the second point, which employee is willing to work with his boss? Even if you get along well with them, they will still be afraid. You wander around, they It’s not easy to fish.”

Xu Ziqin rolled his eyes at him, and Bai Jiang smiled at him, and deliberately moved closer to tease him: "If you don't believe me, you can try, anyway, you can only stay in the office."

Routine, all his routines!

Xu Ziqin was so heartbroken that he was still in the mood to eat. When the chopsticks were pressed down, even the rice bowl rolled along the bottom several times before it stabilized: "I'll give it to you tomorrow..."

"Call Mr. Fu to say you're quitting? Then?"

Bai Jiang had already guessed what he was going to say, "Go to Mike? Or go to another financial company? I don't think it's very likely. I'll analyze it for the young master.

Since you failed to join the ONER project department, it proves that Mr. Fu has already paved the way for you, and looking for Mike is nothing more than causing trouble for him.

The current CEO of ONER is not him, but his father.Don’t even think about other financial companies. Mr. Fu has just taken control of Jinqin from his father for less than two years. What he has to do now is to expand Jinqin’s development pattern. Any one that is not conducive to the development of the company He will avoid all factors.

For those who have returned from studying abroad in the Department of Finance of MIT, will Fu always send you to other companies to poach the corners of his own company?He is not stupid. "

Xu Ziqin: ...

After Bai Jiang's analysis, he didn't find any reason to refute.

He admitted that there was an element of anger in what he said just now, he just didn't want to see Bai Jiang all day long, if he went in and out of his office all day, what would he become?What has become of the office?

Director Bai's small garden?Closed private space?Do whatever you want?

It's ridiculous!

"In two days, there will be a class reunion in No. [-] Middle School. He tried to tell me that he and Huang Dan will take the high-speed train back from Hangzhou tomorrow. All the other students will come. Do you want to go?" Bai Jiang raised his eyelids.

Xu Ziqin looked at the similar meals on the table, and unconsciously recalled the farewell banquet five years ago.

Everyone is a green young man, a group of people hugging each other, crying and laughing, drunk to death, howling like idiots in KTV.

Li Jin also toasted and cheered: "Our fraternity will be brothers all our lives! Come! Whoever forgets whoever will be the grandson!"

Memories are far away and cannot be recalled.

"Go." Xu Ziqin paused, "You were never the only one in my youth."

After finishing the words, Xu Ziqin pushed the door firmly with red eyes.

Suddenly, he was hugged tightly from behind by a brute force, and a hoarse voice pierced through his cochlea: "But my youth is only you!"

"It was you who pulled me out of the dark and boundless life! You told me to study hard. I am different from He Zhengleizi and the others. I studied desperately and stayed up all night to study the questions before I was admitted to BIT. .

I passed the CFA exam and entered Jinqin, so I can get closer to you!

Only then can I stand upright in front of you!When you were 17 years old, maybe I was inconspicuous, just like the poor stray dog ​​you rescued when you were young, but it was different for me. You changed me, and you were the only one in my past!Always! "

Bai Jiang: "Xiao Qin, before I was 17 years old, I never thought that I was a person with low self-esteem. In the old city, no one dared to provoke me, and I still lived a prosperous life.

But after meeting you, I found that I had changed, I became inferior and even desperate.do you understand?You and I are not in the same world at all. If it wasn't for Xu Shangwan's death, I wouldn't have met you at all, and I wouldn't have stood in your office and told you these things.

In order to keep up with your footsteps, I can only do my best.I'm different from Mike, he was born to be the next CEO of ONER, I can't give it to you.

All I have to do is to climb up step by step, get everyone's approval, and make them feel that only I can be qualified to stand by your side. "

Xu Ziqin closed his eyes and held him with both hands: "You don't have to do this for me..."

"I want you to have someone to rely on." Bai Jiang leaned against his back, crying more and more, "I have hidden some words in my heart for five years, maybe you have forgotten them long ago. But I will always remember, five years ago In Suzhou, Huang Dan didn't like Fei Jin before he liked you.

That night, when she said that she had the ability to save the Qin family, I felt very sad.Heh, the person I like actually has to rely on others?

No one wants to live a life of poverty with a poor ghost. I can only earn money desperately to give you a guarantee after meeting you, at least materially, to make you comfortable. "

"Xiao Qin..." Bai Jiang hugged him tightly, "I am qualified to like you now. When we were brothers, I could muster up the courage to say that I like you. Now we are not brothers. , can you give me another chance? Let's make up? Okay?"

Xu Ziqin hesitated holding his hand, not knowing how to answer.

Bai Jiang took out the flower-mounted gift box from his pocket, and when the gold-encrusted and jade-encrusted nothing happened card reappeared in front of Xu Ziqin, the parts that had been broken into several pieces were inlaid with gold and made into tree branches. It can't be seen that it has been broken at all, but it has a luxuriant and vigorous aesthetic feeling.

"I know, you have always had a hurdle in your heart. Believe it or not, I want to help you get over this pit. If you still like Mike, then I will give you this nothing card as a gift. I wish you happiness " Bai Jiang broke off Xu Ziqin's fingers and let him hold them tightly.

Bai Jiang told Xu Ziqin the ins and outs of his meeting with Fu Sheng in the detention center, and Xu Ziqin felt depressed when he heard it.

He kissed Xu Ziqin on the forehead, and said meaningfully: "I can only stand by your side and protect you if I am capable enough. My agreement with Grandpa Fu has been reached. I entered Jinqin to tell everyone that I am in vain. Jiang has always liked you alone. I am 18 years old, and I am still 24 years old! I love you, baby."
