nosy on you

awkward start day

The weather was groggy, and Gu Xi felt that his mind was also groggy. He didn't know whether it was because of a hangover or too much stimulation. There was a suffocating smell in the air, and it was going to rain heavily soon.

When Shen Xu arrived by taxi, he was still sitting on the ground leaning against the iron gate.

A loud thunder above his head knocked him out of his daze. It was only after five o'clock, and the sky was already dark enough to be illuminated by street lights.

"You drive, I'm dizzy." Gu Xi took out the car keys from his pocket and handed them over.

"Okay, let's go to Xiaochuan..." Shen Xu took the key, helped him into the passenger seat, and then slowly drove the car out of the community, "What's going on, you can't tell clearly on the phone I don’t know, I’m completely dumbfounded.”

Gu Xi squinted her eyes and leaned back on the chair, without speaking.

There's nothing left.

Li Wei wiped out the company that his parents had worked so hard to build, and sold his "home" where he had lived for more than ten years. The most important people around him left. He also wanted to know what was going on.

Xie Xiaochuan reserved a large private room, and cooked a few specialty side dishes. The restaurant was crowded with customers as usual, and the loud chatter and laughter were blocked from the door. No one cared whether the table next door was happy or not. pain.

"Let's eat something..." Shen Xu put a few ribs in his bowl, "I won't drink with you anymore, you don't look very good."

"It doesn't matter, I don't want to drink either." Gu Xi picked up the chopsticks, fiddled with them a few times and put them back on the table.

What else to drink.

For the better part of a month, he was muddling along in drunkenness and dreams, and when he woke up, his life had already been turned upside down by him, leaving him with nothing but directionless confusion, a feeling he hadn't experienced for many years.

"Xizi, what are your plans..." Xie Xiaochuan asked, "How about I find some brothers to beat up that Xu?"

"Please use your brain..." Shen Xu pointed at him, "Will beating him up solve the problem? What kind of family background does he have? Not only will you not be able to help, but you have to involve yourself. "

"I'm going to the bathroom." Gu Xi got a little annoyed, got up and walked out of the box.

He had no plans, to be precise, he was helpless, as if there were cliffs all around him, and he would step on empty ground wherever he went, but he couldn't continue to stand where he was, because the ground under his feet was not solid.

He turned on the faucet and washed his face. The cold water temporarily suppressed the hotness that broke through the pores. The moment he raised his head, he saw a young man standing behind him through the mirror, leaning against the door frame and staring towards this side.

"What the hell are you looking at!" Gu Xi leaned on the sink and roared, then turned and stared at him.

"Gu Xi?" The man blurted out his name, with the joy of reunion after a long absence in his tone, "Don't you know me? I'm Tao Li, your college classmate. We used to live in the same dormitory .”

What escape, Taoli...

Gu Xi searched quickly in his mind, and it seemed that there was such a person in his memory. He hadn't moved into an apartment in the first two years of college, and there were only a handful of classmates in his class who could match him.

He barely had an impression of the other three boys in the dormitory. Tao Li's father opened a garment factory, mainly exporting.

It is said that the business is doing well, perhaps because their family backgrounds are relatively similar, for a period of time they went in and out of the same place almost every day.

Later, when Lin Yi was admitted to C University, the relationship between Gu Xi and him gradually faded.

Tao Li's appearance has changed a lot. At that time, he was very enthusiastic about famous brands, and he never wore branded goods that were not in big shopping malls. Today, he was dressed quite plainly and his hair was cut short, so at first glance, Gu Xi didn't know what to do. I didn't recognize it.

However, his current state is not much better, and his whole body exudes a smell of family fortune.

"I haven't seen you for many years, I didn't expect to meet you here." Tao Li smiled, took out a cigarette case from his pocket, and handed one to him, "Is that Maserati outside your car? "

Gu Xi frowned and didn't pick up his cigarette. This kind of probing question always felt that there was a strong purpose hidden behind it.

"Have you quit yet..." Tao Li's smile remained unchanged, and he took a few puffs of his cigarette, "Our whole family will emigrate to a foreign country next month, let's have a meal together if we have time, I don't have much contact with other classmates. "

"Okay, I'll make an appointment then." Gu Xi took out the lighter and lit a cigarette, then took a step forward sideways.

Anyone who understands can hear that what he said is a polite sentence, and Tao Li doesn't know whether he is really stupid or pretending to be stupid, so he immediately took out his mobile phone and handed it over, and he had to ask him to leave a call before he would give up.

With an impatient face, Gu Xi took the phone and poked it a few times. If it wasn't for the sake of his classmates, he would have lost his temper.

"Are you working in your own company..." Tao Li asked again when he was about to leave for the second time, "Are you interested in going out and doing it alone? If you want to start your own business, I have a project that I can recommend to you."

"Start your own business?" Gu Xi looked at him inexplicably.

"My dad wants to transfer the factory..." Tao Li quickly explained, "After going abroad, there is no one he can trust to take care of the business here. Recently, he has been looking for a suitable buyer to take over, mainly because he doesn't want to sell the signboard Fucked."

"Let's talk about it, I don't think so long-term now." Gu Xi said.

"It's okay, there's still a month left anyway..." Tao Li saved his number in the address book, dialed and hung up again, "You can save my number, you can call me when you think about it .”

"Yeah." Gu Xi nodded perfunctorily, walked past him, and left the bathroom quickly.

This person is probably in the late stage of rhinitis, and he can stand in the toilet chatting for so long as if nothing had happened, without being afraid of affecting his appetite.

Moreover, I haven't seen each other for a few years, so I open my mouth to discuss business with him. With this ability to read words, it's a miracle that the factory didn't close down.

After returning to the box, Shen Xu rubbed his nose pretendingly, with a disgusted expression on his face.

"My toilet is very clean, and air fresheners are placed in all four corners..." Xie Xiaochuan pointed at him, "If you are so eccentric, I will move your seat to the squat pit, so that you can whet your appetite."

"Did I say anything..." Shen Xu leaned on the back of the chair and laughed, "Why have you been here for so long, and your stomach feels uncomfortable?"

"I met a college classmate and chatted casually." Gu Xi didn't intend to contact Tao Li, so he took it lightly, and reheated the dishes on the plate. He stuffed a meatball into his mouth, After chewing a few bites, I didn't taste the umami.

"Xizi, I think..." Shen Xu hesitated for two seconds, "If the conditions offered by the Xu Group are good, you can transfer the shares and use the money to start your own business, wouldn't it be good?"

Xie Xiaochuan drank all the beer in the glass, raised his head and slapped his stomach: "You are boasting yourself in a different way, let him learn from you to open a real estate agency, right? There is no risk in starting a business, keep it How nice it is to share dividends every year.”

"There is no risk in what you do these days, and you may be laid off while you are at work..." Shen Xu filled him up with wine, "Seeing my company being dictated by outsiders, I receive some money every year like a pension. Do you like it?"

"You said before that you would help me contact him..." Gu Xi changed the subject, "Did he promise to see you?"

"This..." Shen Xu twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, "Xiao Jin hung up on me before he finished speaking."

Gu Xi lowered his eyelids, and was silent for a while, then picked up the bottle of beer that was just opened on the table, and poured it down, with a bitter taste remaining on the tip of his tongue, rushing from his stomach to his forehead in one breath, His eyes were swollen red.

The elevator stopped on the 38th floor. Dong Qingping was going on a business trip to other provinces today, and specially arranged for a girl named Xiaoqi to go to the brand subsidiary to apply for employment with strictness.

"Mr. Gentleman, this is your ID card..." Xiaoqi recorded his fingerprints when he entered the door, "The chairman works on the 40th floor, and the department store and real estate subsidiary are on the 39th floor. If you have any questions, you can Call me."

"Are these three floors the offices of the D&L Group?" Yan Jing opened his mouth in surprise.

After going through the adoption procedures, it is reasonable that he should change to his father's surname. To be precise, his new name is Lin Jin, but since the secretary Xiao Li made the start, the driver also called him Mr. Jin.

"Yes, the chairman has explained that you are only temporarily familiarizing yourself with the business process in the subsidiary, and you will be transferred to the 40th floor to take over the group's affairs in a few days." Xiaoqi took him to the right side of the large office area.

A rectangular black sign hangs above the head, with three large white characters printed on it, Commodity Department.

The serious seat was arranged at the table close to the manager's office. There were five buyers, three specialists, and two clerks in the entire department. As soon as he appeared, everyone looked at him speculatively.

The door of the room was open. Xiaoqi stood at the door and looked in. The department manager was not there at the moment. It seemed that it was not in line with the procedure for her to introduce directly. Xiaoqi just took out her mobile phone and a call came in.

After a few words in a low voice, she turned around and walked to Yan Jing's side: "The entry procedures on the personnel side have been completed, I have to rush back upstairs to prepare for an emergency meeting, please sit down for a while, and I will come back later. "

"Okay." Yan Yan nodded, took a large stack of materials from her hand, and sat on the seat to read them slowly.

Corporate culture, employee handbook, ERP system account number and password, OA account number and password, office system operation guide... the stack can catch up with the thickness of a book of mountains and seas, and it may be difficult to read it in two days.

Twenty or ten minutes later, a middle-aged man walked over from the bathroom. He could smell the strong smell of cigarettes from several meters away. Judging from experience, at least half a pack of cigarettes must be smoked continuously to achieve this effect.

When passing by, the man stopped in his tracks, glanced at him condescendingly, and then asked in a cold voice, "You are the new supervisor? You look quite young, which company did you work in before?"

"Shiguang Cafe." Yan Jing quickly stood up and answered his question very honestly.

"What?" The man's eyes widened in surprise, "Are you kidding me, have you never made merchandise?"

"No." Yan Yan shook his head embarrassingly.

"I seem to have seen you somewhere..." The man carefully scanned him twice from head to toe, "Did you shoot a magazine cover for the company a few years ago?"

Yan Jing was stunned for a few seconds before reacting, and hadn't thought about how to explain it for a long time.
