Falling in Love with a Sick Girlfriend Twenty Years Younger Than Me

No matter how I think about it, I can't imagine being respected by my colleagues.

You must know that the vast majority of people in the company have the opportunity to be elected as section chiefs only after they are in their 30s.Although I have reached the age where girls call me uncle, I am not yet 30, and I am a full-fledged youth.

The 28-year-old head teacher...?Just thinking about it makes my scalp go numb.

This kind of position should be handed over to those old employees who have joined the company for more than ten years. Why throw it to yourself?Is it to make up for the physical loss you suffered from work last year?The rewards are too generous.

Or...the upper management just want to find someone to replace the former head and do the hard work that belongs to the head?

In order to prevent everyone from being disturbed, I am going to handover my duties quietly, without making any public announcements, and I will tell you after all preparations are complete.

Well, the first is the 'appointment letter', this must be put away, it will be bad if others see it.

"Senior! Happy New Year! Let's go have a meal together tonight?"

"Wow!!"

I hurriedly threw the 'delegation certificate' into the drawer and turned around nervously, only to see Rena Tahara who was chatting with me on the computer just now.

With cute cheeks that look younger than her real age, just right shoulder-length short hair, and a petite body, she doesn't have a trace of power even in professional attire.It felt like a child trying to pretend to be an adult, and I almost didn't laugh out loud when we first met.

Oddly though, Rena's popularity in the company has continued to rise, especially when it comes to women, and I can only attribute it to the gift of motherhood.

"Reina? Aren't you supposed to be working? Why are you here when you have time?"

"Hee hee hee, I don't have much work today, so I won't be in a hurry to start again later. When I think that I can meet with my seniors every day again, I'm not careful~~~"

"You... don't get caught, okay?"

We, who belong to different departments, rarely see each other on weekdays.But by accident, I helped Rena when she joined her, and I happened to be working in the same department at the time.So, until she was transferred to another department, she worked with me, we knew each other very well, and we often went out to dinner together.

After she changed her position in the company and worked in other departments, she would still often come to see me during lunch breaks or after get off work, and once became a figure that others talked about.

I thought she was in love with me at the time, and righteously said that she had a girlfriend, and hoped that she would not do something she shouldn't do.

In the end, she laughed 'haha' a few times and said that there is no such thing, just because no other acquaintances in the company came to me, I didn't care about these things anymore.

However, how would she react when she found out that I was promoted to section head?Will you still come and chat with me like before?

To be honest, she is one of the people I care about most in the company. After all, she is a colleague I brought up with my own hands. I don't want her to look at me like others, flattering and hypocritical.

"New card, very beautiful, very suitable for you."

I watched her deliberately approach my head and said so.

"Thank you for your compliment, senpai!...Speaking of which, senpai, what did you seem to have been staring at just now? Are there any documents that are difficult to handle?"

"Eh!? Yes, yes!?"

I looked around in a panic, and subconsciously blocked the drawer behind me.

"..."

"..."

"It's tricky!"

Rena quickly lay on top of me, ignoring the physical contact with me, swiftly opened the drawer, and took out the 'delegation certificate' I just put in.

"I've got it! Let me see~~ What is the thing that the senior has been hiding?"

"Wow, idiot! Stop being so loud!"

"Hee hee hee, senior is so nervous, does it contain invisible magazines?"

Rena looked at the thing in her hand while avoiding the hand I was fighting with her.

"Well... um? Letter of appointment?"

"Ah... it's over."

When Rena made such a fuss, everyone in the room noticed our side.After hearing Reina's words, everyone's expressions instantly became exciting.

When he turned around, he saw a stunned middle-aged senior.How can I describe his face?dark greyish green?Naturals?

At this time, I, who was only a team leader, received a 'letter of appointment', and obviously there was only one possibility of being promoted.

After a long silence with his mouth open, the senior finally put on a smile and said respectfully.

"Congratulations, Mr. Li."

"Ah...thank you."

So yeah, I hate this kind of workplace.

Really.

----------

After that, under the fiery gaze of everyone, I embarrassedly performed the handover of duties.When I moved my belongings to the desk of the teacher, many people wanted to come and help, but I refused one by one.

Then, just a few minutes after I finished moving things, I received a meeting notice on my mobile phone, greeted everyone, and hurried to the conference room for a meeting.

It was the first time I saw so many big people gathered in one room. I nervously held the ballpoint pen and carefully recorded the meeting on paper, not daring to relax for a moment.By the time the meeting was over, the sky was already full of stars, and it was already night time.

But fortunately I just started to work, and there is not much that I need to do.Otherwise, according to my memory of the former teacher, I shouldn't be able to get off work until midnight.

The company affairs are put aside for the time being, and now is free time after get off work.
