Pandora's Box
Chapter 71
I didn't jump ship from Landwind immediately.
After all, working with Ke Luo is actually very pleasant. We trust each other and have a good understanding.He also relied on me to work hard and stand up at any time, so that he could get away and go to S City.Being able to contribute to a friend's happy love life and contribute some light and heat, I think it can be regarded as giving play to the remaining value of us single dogs.
The most important thing is that I didn't really dare to go to Zhuo Wenyang's company to apply for a job full of joy.
Maybe he was just talking politely.
Even if he seems to let go of me, that doesn't mean I can be aggressive.
The peaceful relationship between us that was so hard to restore may still be as thin as a piece of paper.
What if he still doesn't want me to get too close?
When I was at work that day, two text messages popped up on my phone. I took a closer look and found that this month's salary had arrived, and there was an extra bonus.The balance figure has increased, and as a fresh social animal, I am still quite flattered.
I was looking pretty, when Ke Luo came over, saw my phone page, patted my shoulder, and said, "How about it, buddy treats you well, right?"
I said sternly, "To be honest, my pocket money was more than this when I was in middle school."
Ke Luo smiled unmoved: "Isn't that natural? How can the boss and dad be the same?"
I said sourly: "That's not necessarily true, isn't your boss and dad the same?"
Ke Luo hurriedly coughed, and said, "By the way, I'm going to S City by plane tonight."
I:"……"
"I'm going directly to the airport after get off work, so I can't take you back."
"What?" I was heartbroken, "Do I have to take a taxi back by myself? That's too expensive!"
Ke Luo was very friendly: "Or you can choose to work overtime, in which case the company will reimburse the transportation expenses."
"...It's not impossible."
Ke Luo smiled and said, "Honestly, don't you plan to buy a car?"
"I have my car."
"It's two-wheeled, so it can't get on the high speed."
I sighed: "I don't have the money to buy four wheels, boss, do you think it's time for me to raise my salary..."
Ke Luo immediately waved his hands again and again: "Don't even think about it, I can't give you a dime salary."
"..."
"But Uncle Chen is willing to buy you one at any time."
I rolled my eyes, "Where did he get the money?"
"You're right, who do you look down on? How could Uncle Chen have no money? Isn't Uncle Lu's money his money?"
This is what I think Ke Luo is cute about.Even if Lu Feng was his biological father and recognized his identity, he would not think that those were his property.
I acted like I was thinking: "That won't work, I still prefer to squeeze the company's wool."
Ke Luo patted me on the shoulder with a smile: "Honestly, choose the car you like, otherwise your commute will be a bit strenuous."
I understand this, and, in fact, it's not just Cheng Yichen who has the good intentions to buy a car for me, my dad and Cheng Yichen have also mentioned it several times, asking me what car I like, saying that it will be my graduation gift.
I politely declined.
When I was a student, I spent a lot of money from my elders, and I was justified, but now that I am a member of society, I am not ashamed to continue to gnaw on the old.
Besides, I'm not my father's own.
I'm going to buy a car with my own savings.
The income from the live broadcasts in the past few years, plus the hard-earned money squeezed out by Ke Luo recently, I actually have a not-so-mean savings when I don’t need to spend on board and lodging.
This fact surprised me a lot - how could I save money?
I'm not joking with Ke Luo, the pocket money my dad gave me in middle school was indeed much more than my salary as a worker.
However, at that time, I still couldn't spend enough money at every turn, so I had to find LEE for relief.
Now that I have less money in my hands, I can keep more money instead.
Saving feels amazing.
Of course, the amount of this deposit is definitely far from buying a new car that meets my aesthetics and requirements, but I can consider buying a second-hand car.
But before reaching the goal, you need to squeeze the company's wool.For example, I voluntarily stayed and worked overtime, and while earning overtime pay, I could also be reimbursed for the taxi fare home.
Being stingy is so pleasurable and addicting.
When I was about to leave work, I received a call from Cheng Yichen.
"Xiao Jing, I just saw your message, aren't you coming back for dinner today?"
"Yeah, I haven't finished some work, I want to stay and work overtime."
Immediately, there was Cheng Yichen's voice scolding Lu Feng vaguely: "What's going on? In your company, Xiao Jing has only been working for a short time, and you have to work overtime every three days?"
Lu Feng didn't know what he said, I didn't hear it clearly because the volume was not loud, Cheng Yichen scolded him again: "Still sophistry? If you didn't give too much work, why would you need to work overtime voluntarily? Who doesn't like to go home on time for dinner?"
"..."
"Is there a cafeteria? Is it great to have a cafeteria? They also provide supper? Okay, doesn't this prove that they need to work overtime often?"
"..."
Lu Feng's obedient and scolded image automatically appeared in front of my eyes.
It's too bad.
In fact, the company's canteen is really delicious, super high-quality and cheap, and all aspects of welfare are also in place, which is much better than those companies that only let employees work overtime regardless of whether they live or die.
After scolding Lu Feng, Cheng Yichen came to me again and said, "Your Uncle Lu said, you don't need to work overtime, come back quickly! If you have anything to do tomorrow, you can do it tomorrow, or you can't finish it."
I couldn't laugh or cry: "Okay."
Ke Luo then roared in our small group of three: "Lin actually tricked me!"
"?"
"Uncle Lu just called to ask me why I asked you to work overtime for no reason, and did I give you my job again. I think he wants to scold me! But I can't say that you just want to reimburse the taxi fare!"
I couldn't help but giggled loudly: "Die laughing."
Ke Luo was indignant: "Wen Yang, take care of him for me!"
"?"
Zhuo Wenyang spoke: "I'm about to leave the company just now, just wait a moment, I'll pick you up and go back together."
I was flattered: "Huh? It's not so smooth."
"it does not matter."
I was nervous, flustered, and ready to move. I rushed to the bathroom to face the mirror, and carefully scratched and scratched my messy hair that had been so sleepy.
After I became a part-time worker, I gradually became unkempt. In addition, there was no one I liked in the company anyway, so my heart became loose, and I didn't even bother to take care of my hair.I overslept this morning, so I just washed my face and went out.
Who would have thought that they would meet Zhuo Wenyang under such circumstances.
I tried my best to tidy myself up, and I went downstairs anxiously, waiting at the company gate, checking my appearance back and forth from time to time through the reflection of the glass door.
I recognized Zhuo Wenyang's car from a distance, and when he drove close, my heart was beating wildly for a long time, and it was about to pop out of my mouth.
Opening the car door and sitting on it, I feel like Cinderella in the pumpkin carriage, full of joy and trembling anticipation.
For the first time in a long time, the two of us were alone in such a close distance in a confined space.
Zhuo Wenyang nodded to me, and after driving for a while, he asked, "Is the temperature of the air conditioner too high?"
"No no."
"But I see you're sweating."
"..." I saw my face in the rearview mirror, not only was it sweating, but it was as red as a baked sweet potato.
I can only say embarrassingly: "Haha, my coat is too thick."
Zhuo Wenyang lowered the temperature inside the car, and then asked, "Is it Ke Luo who will drive you to and from get off work now?"
"Uh-huh."
"Then it's inconvenient for you when he's not around," Zhuo Wenyang asked, "Do you need to buy a car?"
I said honestly, "Yes, I am saving money."
He gave me a slightly surprised look: "Are you going to buy it yourself?"
"Uh-huh."
He seemed to smile: "Then you are better than me."
"is it?"
"Well, my mother bought my first car for me, and the one I'm driving now is a gift from my grandfather," he said, "I've never bought a car by myself."
Although he can still buy whatever he wants on his own, but it doesn't sound like anything wrong with that.
This seemed to make me happy on purpose, so I was also happy, and happily shared my second-hand car plan with him.
Zhuo Wenyang listened carefully, and gave some advice from time to time. It didn't mean that he looked down on second-hand cars, or didn't take this goal of my struggle seriously.
When he was about to get home, Zhuo Wenyang said suddenly: "Before you buy the car, and when Ke Luo is inconvenient in the future, I'll give you a ride. It won't delay you."
I was shocked: "That's so embarrassing, it's too much trouble for you."
He glanced at me: "It's nothing to worry about."
Cheng Yichen was a little surprised when he opened the door to see the two of us: "Wen Yang is here? Didn't you say you have something to do tonight, so you can't come over for dinner?"
"Well, I'll take Lin Jing back on the way,"
"It's all here, don't you really want to stay and eat?"
Zhuo Wenyang smiled and said, "It should be too late. Let's do it tomorrow, and cook me an extra bowl of rice tomorrow night."
After saying hello, Zhuo Wenyang left without entering the door.I watched his back, and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
So he made this special trip just to see me off.
This is too extravagant!
I felt ashamed of myself for being stingy, and in order to save so much taxi fare, I used Zhuo Wenyang as a special car driver.
But he was inexplicably thankful for his stinginess, otherwise how would he have the opportunity to be alone with him for such a few 10 minutes?
It was Friday again, and I asked Ke Luo enthusiastically, "According to the usual practice, after get off work tonight, should you go to the airport again?"
"?" Ke Luo said, "No, there are so many things this week, I can't leave."
"..."
Ke Luo asked strangely: "Why do you look so disappointed? Didn't I want to drive you off in advance before putting on such a loveless face?"
The phone prompts that there is a message, I glanced at it, and Zhuo Wenyang was talking in the group: "Ke Luo, are you going to S City tonight?"
"..."
Ke Luo immediately said: "Oh, I suddenly remembered. I have to buy a gift for LEE to make up for him. I'm not on the way. Let Wen Yang take you home."
After all, working with Ke Luo is actually very pleasant. We trust each other and have a good understanding.He also relied on me to work hard and stand up at any time, so that he could get away and go to S City.Being able to contribute to a friend's happy love life and contribute some light and heat, I think it can be regarded as giving play to the remaining value of us single dogs.
