Chestnuts are ripe

Some ideas, once they have a sign, will linger as if they have taken root in my mind.

Although Chen Fang kept telling himself in his heart that people like Mr. Xue would only meet him by accident, and there would be no other personal interactions except ordinary shopping transactions.But when people in the store mentioned Xue Lin's name in gossip, he would subconsciously hold his breath and listen carefully, for fear of missing any information by mistake.

After the female staff boasted about Xue Lin's excellent background, education and career, the topic entered the highlight--love.

"I heard Mr. Xue is still single!" The female senior in the store's eyes lit up, and she spoke convincingly, "I have a best friend who happens to work in the administration department of the group, and what she said is absolutely right!"

"Didn't his parents urge the marriage?" Chen Fang couldn't help his curiosity, and interjected.

"That's right, but for a rich man like him, there is a high probability that his final destination will be a business marriage." The female senior shrugged her shoulders.

"Maybe Xue always feels that he is still young and hasn't played enough?" Brother Wang said, with a bit of disdain in his tone, "Oh, rich people have so many tricks to play, how can they give up so quickly? , if it were me, of course I would have to change a few supermodel girlfriends first."

"Boss Xue is already doing well, you don't know, so-and-so in the group in the office building next door brought three different women to the store this week!" Tanya came out from the rest room just in time to hear them Talking about gossip, taking advantage of the trend to complain.

"That's right, I've seen people who brought mistress and children here! At any rate, I've never heard of anyone around Mr. Xue. Compared with those people, I don't know how much better it is," the female senior sighed, " Really, after working in this store for a period of time, I feel that there are no good men in this world... Oh no, there are rich and good men.”

"These women who do these things relying on their youth and beauty, what will they do when they get old?"

"So honestly work on your own! It's the most reliable way to make money to support yourself, don't dream of being a wealthy wife." The store manager Luo Yan clapped her hands to cheer everyone up.

Chen Fang stood silently and returned to his post, apparently still digesting the gossip he just heard.

Seeing him in a daze, Tan Ya thought that he had just graduated, and it might be the first time he had encountered such a thing, so she laughed: "What? Didn't you expect society to be so cruel?"

Chen Fang didn't respond, and held back for a while before he couldn't help asking Tanya: "Those people, bring them here to buy, won't they be discovered?"

"Huh?" Tan Ya paused for a moment before realizing that what Chen Fang asked was what she said just now, and said with a smile, "Even if you find out, so what? You still want to let that man raise you, and no one who is sensible will know." It’s really embarrassing—they are all canaries in cages, so what if they are wronged, can they live a good life on their own after divorce? Unless you have enough confidence, you have the capital to be tough with each other, yes wrong?"

"I've been working in a luxury store for a long time, and I've seen a lot of these things, and you'll know about it later." Tan Ya looked at Chen Fang with a little confusion in her eyes, and for a moment she couldn't bear to let him see it so early. The dark side of society, "However, there are many people who dare to face it face to face. After all, cheating is wrong no matter what."

"Our little Chen is still young, we will definitely find a good partner in the future, don't worry!"

Chen Fang responded with a smile, and when he lowered his head, the corners of his eyes drooped slightly. Thinking of his absurd guess a few days ago, he shook his head, maybe he really just thought too much.

In the next few days, as if confirming Chen Fang's words, Xue Lin never sent him a WeChat message.

Other news gradually climbed up, and Chen Fang had to scroll down for a while before he could see the cartoon head portrait of milk tea.Silently click on it, the last message displayed in the dialog box is still the gif of the shy and cute kitten sent by the other party.

Thinking of how he was struggling when replying to the message before, Chen Fang suddenly felt that he was a little funny.Alas, it's all about being self-indulgent. How could a serious person like Mr. Xue have the idea of ​​making a date?

Even if there is, with his current capital, he should not be able to find many well-behaved and sweet bed partners without much effort.

I am just... a cabinet brother who has not passed the probationary period, so what is it?

Chen Fang laughed at himself, and decided to put this matter aside and stop thinking about it.

Graduation, looking for a new house, signing a contract, trivial and complicated things piled up one by one, and quietly stole most of Chen Fang's time and energy. When he recovered, it was almost the middle of the month. up.

Seeing the first salary of the internship period settled into the bank card, before he could heave a sigh of relief, the text message of loan installment deduction arrived just like a pinch, and the number in the card disappeared instantly before the money was warmed up. half.

"Chen Fang! The goods you ordered arrived today! Come and sign for them!"

"Here we come." Chen Fang trotted to the warehouse, and Tan Ya, who was in charge of counting the goods, checked them one by one. Seeing him coming, she pointed to several bags on the cart and said, "Look, is it you?" order."

Chen Fang opened the box to confirm, checked that there were no missing accessories and other things, and then signed the list.

"Is it something Mr. Xue wanted to order that day?" Tan Ya watched him sign his name on the record book stroke by stroke, "You can send a message so that he can come and pick it up when he has time."

"Well, I got it, thank you, Sister Tan." Chen Fang no longer struggled in his heart. When Tan Ya mentioned it, the smile on his face was as gentle and calm as ever. Tan Ya couldn't help being stunned for a while. Only then did I remember why I called him here.

"You, you don't have work this afternoon, right? Is there anything else?"

As soon as Chen Fang sent Xue Lin a WeChat message, he looked up and saw that Tan Ya seemed to have something to say to him, and shook his head: "I'm fine this afternoon, what's the matter?"

Tanya felt a little embarrassed, and explained in a slow voice: "Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, and the store must be very busy. My boyfriend and I want to leave one day earlier, so... can you please change shifts with me?"

"I was supposed to tell the store manager in advance, but I accidentally forgot, and other people have things to do, so I..." Tan Ya's tone was a little cramped, "It doesn't matter if you don't want to, I can ask again Look at someone else's!"

Chen Fangben was also not good at rejecting others. Just as he was about to answer, he caught sight of Mr. Xue's reply on the screen out of the corner of his eye, and agreed accordingly: "Yes, it doesn't matter."

"Really? Thank you so much!" Tanya clasped her hands gratefully, "I'll treat you to milk tea next time!" The evening date was able to proceed smoothly, and Tanya jumped out happily.

Chen Fang looked down at the message from Mr. Xue on the phone: We have a meeting today, but it might be later.What time do you leave work?

"It can be another day..." Chen Fang was only halfway typing, and the other party seemed a little anxious, and sent another message: It won't be too late, around 10 o'clock.

10 o'clock in the evening is the closing time of the mall, but the store has to be tidied up and the inventory is checked, and the clerks will not leave on time so much, and it doesn't hurt to be late.With this in mind, Chen Fang agreed.

Xue Lin put down his mobile phone, looked up at the managers of the project teams of various departments sitting in the conference room, flipped through the thick documents on the table, and turned the signature pen in his hand a little impatiently.

The budget planning at the beginning of the year is really troublesome... Can't these managers use their brains?These few even stuttered in the PPT presentation report, and it seemed that they were pushed to their subordinates to do a good job.Don't you know how to go through it yourself before reporting?The attitude is not sincere after cramming, tsk, how annoying... Xue Lin threw the pen in his hand on the table, leaned back slightly against the back of the chair, and slightly raised his chin to clearly convey to the people around him that he is at this moment. How impatient.

Xu Yan, who was sitting by the side taking minutes of the meeting, immediately noticed that Xue Lin's mood was starting to turn red. He glanced at the conference hall, and handed over how many groups of reports were left.

Xue Lin took it and looked down, frowning slightly, then took the phone without a trace, unlocked it, and opened WeChat to confirm the time.

Then I wrote "10pm" on the note and handed it back.

Anyway, he has to get out of this building at 10 o'clock tonight, and you can figure out the rest of the meeting schedule.

Xue Lin didn't care what Xu Yan was thinking when he saw the note. He propped his forehead with one hand, thinking that he had been in a room with a group of middle-aged men whose hair was either bald in the front or bald in the back for several days. Distraught.

Not to mention that I don't know what day it is, at least half of the people inside have sprayed perfume, and the scattered smells come together, no matter how elegant and pleasant the smell is, it will directly sublimate into a deadly dose of inferior cologne.

Choking is a headache.

Xue Lin pinched the bridge of his nose, and swore secretly in his heart: before the next meeting, the secretary must inform all the managers that it is forbidden to use strong perfume in the meeting room!

An hour later, Xue Lin finally walked out of the meeting room and took a few deep breaths—for the first time, he felt that the cheap lemon fragrance in the company corridor was so fresh.

Xu Yan, who also stayed in the conference room for a long time, also suffered from it. Seeing this, he said thoughtfully: "There are clean spare suits in the office."

"No need." Xue Lin had a complex expression, and after a moment of silence, he still couldn't help complaining in his heart, "Is a meeting like the budget presentation so important that you need to wear perfume?" Feeling, as for everyone spraying like this?

Xu Yan flipped through the upcoming schedule, glanced at the date, and replied: "Tomorrow is February 2, Valentine's Day. I think many people have extra arrangements for today."

On Valentine's Day, I have to accompany the one at home, and the ones outside are basically either a day earlier or a day later.Xu Yan followed Xue Lin among these high-level business executives, and understood the unwritten rules of this group of people better than Xue Lin.

After all, sometimes the gifts you prepare need to be signed, so you can't get the name wrong for the lady you want to give it to, right?

Xue Lin was slightly taken aback when he heard Xu Yan's words, and subconsciously looked at the phone.

Valentine's Day?
