Jin Shaoheng's eyes followed Lu Xining's retreating figure. In fact, he didn't hear a word of what Lin Qingyue said. Instead, he felt that the chatter was a bit noisy.
"Shaoheng, what are you looking at?" Lin Qingyue finally noticed something was wrong with him and subconsciously followed his line of sight.
"It's nothing." Jin Shaoheng said perfunctorily, pushing her hand away and saying, "I still have something to do, you have a good rest."
"But you just came-" She didn't even have time to say a few words to him.
Jin Shaoheng had already opened the door and started the engine.
"Shaoheng!" Lin Qingyue patted the car window.
Jin Shaoheng drove the car out and quickly left his sight.
Lin Qingyue stood there and stamped his feet angrily.
"Ms. Lin, I seem to have seen the young mistress." Xiaoyan, the servant, suddenly said.
Lin Qingyue looked around after hearing this and asked: "Where is it?"
"I just went to the inpatient department." Xiaoyan pointed not far away.
Isn't that the direction that Jin Shaoheng was looking in just now? Could it be that he wasn't looking at himself, but at Lu Xining?
Thinking of the scene in his rental house in Lu Xining a few days ago, Lin Qingyue suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
No, she still had to find a way...
——Separating line——
Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Lu Xining had already been employed for a week.
"How are you doing? Are you still getting used to it?" Gu Yuzhi sent a message of condolences on WeChat during a break from work.
"I've adapted well, and my colleagues are also very good." Lu Xining replied.
He was the CEO, and she was just an assistant in the lower department. It was impossible for the two of them to meet, so no one knew about their relationship. Lu Xining was actually very satisfied with this situation.
"I'm going to Hong Kong in the afternoon and will come back to celebrate you." Gu Yuzhi said again.
She originally wanted to have a meal with her on the day she joined the company, but he was new to the company and was so busy that he almost became a trapeze artist.
"Okay." Lu Xining was not polite.
"Boyfriend?" The colleague next to me suddenly came over curiously.
"No." Lu Xining denied and calmly turned off the screen.
She didn't want people to know that she and Gu Yuzhi knew each other, so as not to cause trouble. Her goal was to be a quiet clerk.
"The supervisor said he would treat us to dinner after get off work later." The colleague came over and actually told her this.
Lu Xining's expression was surprised.
"What are you doing, welcoming new students?" a colleague suggested.
Isn't that just me? Of course, there are two or three others who joined her.
"I said I was too busy the past few days and didn't take time out. Isn't it the weekend today? I don't have to go to work tomorrow, so I can play all night." The colleague added, looking forward to it.
After all, someone is paying for the food, drinks, and fun, so why not?
Lu Xining was not enthusiastic about this kind of thing, but as a newcomer and it was her first gathering, of course she had to attend.
But she originally thought she would simply have a meal at the hotel and connect with each other.
But when the dishes were served and the manager asked them to fill up their glasses, she started to feel embarrassed.
She was not allowed to drink when she was pregnant, but if she told her, she would definitely face strange looks in the department in the future.
Moreover, the city is only so big, so she didn’t dare to take risks, fearing that it would spread to Jin Shaoheng’s ears.
So at first I just raised it to dip the cup in a symbolic gesture, and then quickly changed myself to a drink.
The manager, who thought she could get away with it after several rounds of drinking, suddenly pushed aside her colleagues and sat down next to her.
"Xiao Lu, why don't you drink? Isn't it too boring?"
"I'm sorry, manager, I'm allergic to alcohol." At this moment, Lu Xining found out what excuse he had given.
"Hahaha." Unexpectedly, the manager burst out laughing after hearing this, and said with a nonchalant look on his face: "I've seen a lot of newcomers like you, and I always feel that they are unique and have their own personality. In fact, they are just smart."
Smart people could tell that their boss was angry, but Lu Xining still persisted: "Manager, I'm really allergic -"
"No face?" The manager concluded that she was lying, but Lu Xining interrupted before she could finish her words.
Lu Xining didn't know what to do for a moment, and the atmosphere was tense.
"Come on, manager, I'll drink with you." A male colleague couldn't help but help her out.
But the manager seemed to have been targeting her for a long time and ignored her.
Some people couldn't hide, while others wanted to take the opportunity to curry favor with him. A female colleague who was also new here glanced at Lu Xining and immediately had an idea.
"Manager." She took the manager's arm affectionately and leaned towards him.
The manager's expression softened when he saw this, and he returned to his seat and continued to drink and change glasses, ignoring Lu Xining.
Lu Xining finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the colleague next to her reminded her: "Be careful, if you offend him, I might give you some shoes in the future."
Lu Xining was stunned.
She was new to the workplace and didn't fully understand the rules. But she felt that everyone had their own bottom line, and when the manager saw that he had other agendas, she would not compromise.
After three rounds of drinking, the group still had no intention of dispersing, and the scene became increasingly lively. It seemed that only Lu Xining, who did not drink, seemed to be out of place.
After all, if she offended the manager, everyone would take sides.
Faced with the strong smell of tobacco and alcohol in the box, Lu Xining wanted to go to the bathroom to get some fresh air. When he came back, he met the manager on the phone in the corridor.
"Honey, didn't I say I would accompany my client today...why did I do this? You don't believe me." He said and put away his phone and turned around. It was too late for Lu Xining to hide.
"Manager." Lu Xining had no choice but to shout, pretending to be nonchalant.
"Xiao Lu." Unexpectedly, the supervisor stretched out his hand, put his arm on her shoulders, leaned over, and said deliberately: "I seem to be drunk."
Don't make your intentions too obvious.
Lu Xining wanted to hide in disgust, but then he heard him say again: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you are allergic to alcohol. There are actually many ways for our colleagues to communicate with each other."
Lu Xining was not stupid, especially when he looked at her with eyes that he couldn't hide, he wished he could strip her naked on the spot, giving people a feeling of nausea.
"Manager, please respect yourself." Lu Xining's expression suddenly turned cold.
"What if I don't respect myself?" The manager thought it was vulgarity for fun, and as he spoke, he kissed her on the face.
Lu Xining didn't tolerate him and kicked him directly in the crotch.
The manager wailed, but did not let go. Instead, he pulled her hair back against the wall with his hands and said fiercely: "I have been in the workplace for decades. If I don't deal with you, it will be in vain."
Lu Xining saw that his face was getting closer and closer to hers, and no matter how hard she struggled, she could not get away.
At this time, a hand suddenly grasped the manager's assailant wrist, and there was a click, and he started to cry out in pain.
But no one paid attention to him. Jin Shaoheng's assistant came forward and asked with concern: "Young mistress, are you okay?"
When Lu Xining raised his eyes, he naturally saw the tall and straight figure behind him.
