After I was kicked out by the benefactor

I returned to the office at noon, and before I could sit down, the team leader came over.Since Xu Shuming joined the company, he has been performing well and kept himself safe. Unlike those newcomers who just joined the company, they can't wait to show their "newness" all the time, chat with people when they have nothing to do, and ask about the unknown things in the company. secret.

Xu Shuming apologized to her first, and then said that he had something to do in the morning and was in a hurry, so he didn't have time to ask for leave.The team leader frowned, saying that the behavior of not coming to work without saying hello in advance is very despicable, and it is usually counted as absenteeism.

There is room for speaking in this way.Xu Shuming quickly apologized to her again, and repeatedly promised not to do it again.Sure enough, the team leader stopped pestering you, saying that it was the first time for someone to let you down, and it was not an example, and he was not allowed to disappear without a word in the future.

Xu Shuming nodded and bowed, with a perfect posture, before letting the team leader return to his seat.

If you don't come all morning, there will be a backlog of work.

Xu Shuming buried his head and began to deal with the backlog of work in his hands. There were priorities, and the most urgent thing was another matchmaking meeting in the afternoon, and a budget report was needed, so he had to hurry up.

When I finished my work, I looked up and saw that it was two o'clock in the afternoon.I even forgot to eat lunch. From morning to now, I only have a cup of coffee left in my stomach.

I'm dizzy from hunger, and it's hard to order takeaway.Opening the drawer, the bread I bought last week to satisfy my hunger was taken away by someone who didn't know how to greet me.

It's not a lot of money, but it still makes people feel uncomfortable to be taken away so quietly.

Who is it?

Xu Shuming sat up straight and looked around. Everyone was immersed in their work, and no one looked like a suspect.

"Are you hungry?" Suddenly a male voice appeared in front of him.

Xu Shuming raised his head, it was Vice President Li.He sobered up, and returned to his friendly appearance during the day.He has a round face and a round body, so it is not difficult to make such a friendly gesture.

"Don't you eat? I noticed that you didn't go out to eat at noon. Did you work a lot? By the way, you didn't come in the morning, what happened?"

He walked around the desk loudly, stood in front of Xu Shuming, bent over, and put the lunch box in his hand on the table.

"Eat some, it's all hot. You have a bad stomach, so don't just be hungry."

He said it as if he knew himself very well, Xu Shuming wanted to laugh, but the office is only so big, Vice President Li is shameless, he still wants it.

Xu Shuming tightened his palms, and then stood up abruptly.He picked up the folder and moved quickly, as if he didn't want to stay for a minute, and quickly walked out from the other side of the desk.

"No need," Xu Shuming said without turning his head, "I'll go to the meeting room first, there's already an urgent call."

Not every meeting requires Vice President Li to be present.Besides him, the company also has several other vice presidents in charge of business.Vice Li always came up through qualifications. He is a skilled worker, but he is not a top student.

Xu Shuming was in the office building, and walked around a few more times until he exhaled all the stale air in his body before he walked into the meeting room.

The meeting of more than two hours made people dizzy.Xu Shuming also had to write down the data mentioned in the meeting. After finishing these, when he stood up, he almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, he was the only one left in the conference room at this time.Holding the U-shaped table with his hands, he stood there for a while, and only let go after the dizziness passed.

When I got back to the office, the first thing I did was to take the cup and go to the tea room to make some coffee.Their office provides hot brewed coffee every day, which doesn't taste very good. Generally speaking, Xu Shuming seldom drinks it.

But today, he is in urgent need of some sugar, and there are sugar cubes in the tea room. Put a few more cubes in the coffee, and it should be able to last until home.

He took the cup and walked outside the door, only to hear someone's voice inside.

"...I've seen it a long time ago, but I still don't know it. You know what Mr. Li looks like, and you can't wait to go up and lick his ass, tsk, I can't think of a man now..." The voice sneered, what do you mean, no It goes without saying.

Another voice picked up and said, "Isn't it? Otherwise, Mrs. Li would come here every day to wait for Mr. Li to get off work? Isn't it because he is afraid that Mr. Li will go to someone else's house after get off work?"

"Hey, tell me, what the hell are they...huh?"

"Who knows, I can't see it far away. I didn't see his weak appearance today. I don't know who to show it to. Look, Mr. Li's heart ached. Baba went to buy food, heated it up and delivered it to him. .”

"I see his attractive appearance, can't he really come through the back door?"

"It must be. If you can hook Mr. Li, maybe there are other benefactors out there. Have you seen the watch he is wearing? With his little salary, when will he be able to buy it?"

"Didn't he say that his family is quite rich?"

"What's the matter with the money? If he has money, he still comes here? I remember everything clearly about the transportation expenses on business trips, and I ask the finance company for reimbursement every time. If you are not short of money, can you care so much?"

"That's right. Hey, don't talk, it's getting late, I have to go back quickly."

"Me too, let's go together."

Xu Shuming heard their footsteps coming out together, and subconsciously took a step back to avoid their sight.

After the two left, Xu Shuming walked out of the shadows with a white face and walked into the tea room.

At this point, the sky outside the window had already dimmed, and the dotted city lights lit up one after another under the feet.

Xu Shuming mechanically held the cup and made a cup of hot coffee.Originally, he intended to add sugar to drink, but at this time he had no such intention.

His mind was completely occupied by the conversation between the two just now.Did the two of them talk in private, or did the whole company know about it, and everyone whispered it in private?

If it was the latter, Xu Shuming couldn't help but feel chills all over his body.

He stood in the tea room for a long time, stirring the hot coffee with a spoon, and when the coffee liquid did not burn his mouth, he raised it to his lips and took a sip.

The taste of black coffee is very bitter, and it feels sour after drinking it into the throat.

It was sour and astringent, flowing down the throat into the stomach, making his whole body seem to be filled with endless bitterness and sourness.

What is this?

When you are doing your duty, life will not treat you kindly.Instead, they bully you everywhere and make you feel ashamed.Being stepped into the mud, you have to bow your waist and say thank you for your mercy.

It's not that he doesn't know the two female colleagues who talked behind their backs just now.

They also sat at the same table and ate together, and when they met each other, they would smile and say hello to each other.

However, turning around can hurt someone in the back.Unfounded things can also be used to make irresponsible remarks, as if they have seen it with their own eyes.

Heh, his background is indeed not good. — But is it wrong to be bad?

Reimbursing the fare for a business trip can also become a poor performance.

Besides the watch on his wrist, it really wasn't Zhong Wentian who bought it for him.

It was a gift specially given to him by his father. His father said that although they were not a wealthy family, the son's coming-of-age gift had to be chosen carefully.

Famous watches are the best, if you can wear them, you can keep them as an investment.

People of the older generation have always been careful about budgeting.

At that time, their family's situation was not as embarrassing as they were when they were young. Xiangdao couldn't afford a house, but they could afford a watch.

No one knew that today Xu Shuming would be criticized because of this watch.If Dad knew, his thoughts at that time would be so misinterpreted by others, and he didn't know how to feel about it.

Thinking of this, Xu Shuming didn't feel that the black coffee in his cup was bitter.

He walked out of the tea room with a cup in his hand, and on the way back, he met one of the two female colleagues.She was arranging the files on the desktop, when she looked up, she saw Xu Shuming's eyes looking over, and she smiled sweetly at him.

Xu Shuming was startled, and after two seconds, he forced a smile back.

Who said the office is not a battlefield?Let me ask, in this situation just now, if it is not a professional spy who makes a living by acting, who can deal with it freely.

He went back to his station and was supposed to work overtime at night, and his work was never finished.But tonight, he packed up his things, took the company laptop with him, clocked in on time, and hurriedly jumped on the elevator to leave work.

Because he left in a hurry, even Vice President Li's wife didn't have time to savor the stare at him.

Who knows, just went downstairs.Someone was waiting for him in the hall downstairs.

It was a tall man in a gray suit. He blocked his way with his hand and said, "Mr. Xu, please wait a moment. Our boss wants to talk to you about something."

"Who? I'm not free." Xu Shuming said.

The person who came didn't allow him to leave, and his attitude was very tough: "Mr. Xu, it's only a 10-minute delay. Our boss wants to see you very much."

Xu Shuming stopped. He knew that this person had not achieved his goal and would not let it go.

what happened?

Everyone wants to talk to him today.

Xu Shuming was too tired to lift his feet, not only tired, but also too hungry to walk.

He said wearily: "It's fine to meet each other, but I will choose a place."

The visitor frowned, he couldn't decide such a trivial matter, little man.He made a gesture of waiting, picked up the phone sideways and dialed a number without thinking.

"Yes Yes."

After affirming repeatedly, he put down the phone, turned to Xu Shuming and said:

"Mr. Xu, our boss said that as long as you are willing to talk to him, you can choose the place."

That's good, Xu Shuming heaved a sigh of relief, he just wants to have a big meal now.

The computer in his hand was shoved bluntly by the person who came and went, and ordered: "Lead the way."

The visitor was taken aback. He turned his head and took another look at Xu Shuming up and down.

"Still leaving?" Xu Shuming urged him.

The visitor gritted his teeth, gave Xu Shuming a hard look, then turned his head, took his things silently, and took him to a ride.

The car was parked on the side of the road, and a special driver was waiting for them.

Xu Shuming opened the back door, sat down and leaned on the cushion, so tired that he didn't even have the strength to open his eyes, so he reported the name of a shop he usually likes to go to.

"This store has a lot of people, and the box needs to be reserved one night in advance, but I believe that with your boss's ability, there will be no problem, right?"

Forget it, it's not his fault after all.

"If your boss is dissatisfied and thinks my attitude is bad, you can put me on the side of the road and I can eat by myself."

"Have you always been so rude, Mr. Xu?" said the little man.

After hearing what he said, Xu Shuming opened his eyes and glanced at him, saying, "No."

Of course not, Xu Shuming smiled inwardly, it's not that he is still a three-year-old child who doesn't understand the rules of social operation.

If others respect you one point, I will pay back three points.

But why be polite to someone who doesn't respect you from the start?
