After Fang Qin left, Xu Chuanchuan was called into the office.
Murong Shi looked at her and said bluntly: "Linda's family has some problems and asked for leave. I am short of staff, so I can only transfer you temporarily. I hope you can understand this."
Xu Chuanchuan lowered his eyebrows and said, "As long as I can do it, you can tell me."
"Linda usually has a lot of work."
Xu Chuanchuan showed panic.
Murong Shi chuckled and said, "She is mainly responsible for the work of the business department, which is a lot of work. I asked her to temporarily hand it over to the assistant of the business department. Your work is very simple, just trivial. I have something to do. I'll call you, and you can be on call anytime."
Xu Chuanchuan breathed a sigh of relief: "I see."
Murong Shi really just asked her to run errands, type files, send emails, and there was basically nothing too difficult to do. Xu Chuanchuan stayed in the engineering department most of the time, so she could have enough time to do her own thing. If it wasn't for the occasional call by Murong Shi, she would have almost forgotten that she still needed a top class.
Xu Chuanchuan was worried that Murong Shi would be difficult to deal with before, but later found that not only was Murong Shi not difficult to deal with, but he was also quite good at talking.
Once, Xu Chuanchuan went to deliver documents to Murong Shi after get off work. Murong Shi seemed to be very busy, and she kept tapping at the computer without looking at her.
Xu Chuanchuan interrupted in a low voice, "What else do you need me to do?"
Murong Shi was completely free from outside interference when she was concentrating on her work. Xu Chuanchuan asked for a long time before she responded and said, "This is the minutes of the meeting in the afternoon. You can sort it out first and send it to my email when you're ready."
Xu Chuanchuan took the notebook that she handed over and saw that the white page was densely filled with words.
In addition to the signature, it was the first time she saw Murong Shi's handwriting. The strokes were strong, slender, fluttering, but neat and clear. No wonder it is said that seeing words is like seeing people, and Murong Shi's words are just as pleasing to the eye as she herself.
"If you don't know how to do it, you can look at the email Linda sent me before. There should be a template there. I'll give you at most half an hour, and now it's..." Murong Shi glanced at the lower right corner of the computer.
Xu Chuanchuan waited for a long time but didn't hear anything. She thought it was because Murong Shi's computer didn't show the time. She looked at her phone and said, "It's half past six. Don't worry, I'll sort it out and send it to you before seven o'clock."
Murong Shi suddenly took the notebook from her hand: "No need, you can get off work."
Xu Chuanchuan didn't know why: "Why?"
"You hungry?"
"I'm hungry."
"Let's go to dinner, I don't need you here."
Xu Chuanchuan felt like a dream when he walked out of the office. She used to feel that Murong Shi was inhumane, and even not long ago, she suspected that Linda was crying because Murong Shi was too fierce... But at that moment, she clearly felt the concern of her boss for her subordinates from Murong Shi's words.
Thinking of saying bad things about Murong Shi before, Xu Chuanchuan felt deeply guilty.
The second time I changed my mind about Murong Shi was at the weekend dinner in the business department.
The manager of the business department invited everyone to dinner. When he came to invite Murong Shi, Xu Chuanchuan happened to be there and said to her, "Xiao Xu, you can go too."
Usually this kind of dinner Xu Chuanchuan pushes as soon as she can, but now that she is in Linda's class, and Murong Shi is going, she can't escape.
The meeting place was in a restaurant near the company. The food and wine were all served. The manager of the business department held a glass of wine and said, "Come here, let's all respect Miss Rong for a glass."
Murong Shi smiled and said, "I don't drink alcohol while driving, let's use juice instead."
Xu Chuanchuan saw that Murong Shi was using juice, so he poured the juice for himself. Unexpectedly, the manager of the business department found out, pointed at her and said, "Xiao Xu, you don't have to drive, how can you drink juice? Change wine for wine."
Xu Chuanchuan had no choice but to take a glass and pour the beer again, drinking it with a painful look on his face.
Halfway through the meal, Murong Shi went out to answer a phone call, and when he came back, his face was gloomy. She came over to Xu Chuanchuan and said, "If you don't want to stay here, you can come with me."
Xu Chuanchuan didn't want to stay for a long time, she nodded hastily.
Murong Shi changed her smile and said to the others, "I'm sorry everyone, I have to go first, you guys have fun."
Xu Chuanchuan walked out of the box with Murong Shi.
Murong Shi turned around and said to her, "I won't send you away. You go back and pay attention to safety."
Xu Chuanchuan was flattered. Seeing her anxious look, he hurriedly said, "You too, drive carefully."
Murong Shi didn't delay for a moment. Just as he drove the car to the main road, the phone rang.
A few minutes ago, her father, Sun An, called her and said, "Come back quickly."
Sun An's tone was flat, but Murong Shi could smell the hidden smell of fire and medicine.
Now seeing the three words "Jiang Shaohua" on the caller ID, the ominous premonition became stronger and stronger. She paused and pressed to answer.
Jiang Shaohua said repressed but eagerly: "Murong, prepare yourself mentally first. Your father and my father found out about our affair."
The cause of the incident stemmed from a promiscuous party between Jiang Shaohua and a group of friends. The venue was a hot spring hotel under the name of Jiang's family. When a few men were having a good time with a group of beauties, Jiang's father and Sun An After killing him, the two of them grabbed one arm and dragged Jiang Shaohua, who was hanging on a wire, from the bed.
Jiang's father and daughter were heartbroken, and in front of the three naked women shivering on the bed, they raised their hands to give Jiang Shaohua two big mouths.
Sun An asked sharply on the spot, "Shaohua, how can you be so worthy of Xiaoshi?"
Facing the accusations and scoldings of the two elders, Jiang Shaohua covered his numb face and had to confess: "Uncle, Murong and I are not together at all."
Murong Shi's right eyelid twitched, she pretended to be calm: "I see."
Half an hour later, Murong Shi arrived home. As soon as she stepped into the house, she was called into the study by Sun An.
Sun An was full of alcohol, his face was very red, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked a little vicious. He said straight to the point: "What's the matter with you and Shaohua?"
The paper couldn't contain the fire, Murong Shi didn't expect Jiang Shaohua to be playful. Since this is the case, there is no need to continue acting. She sighed and said, "I broke up with him a long time ago."
"When did this happen?"
Murong Shi's face was not blushing and her heart was not beating, she looked directly at him: "It's been a while."
Sun An was not happy: "Why didn't you tell me?"
"I'm too busy with work, I forgot."
"You're just an excuse!" Sun An slapped his palm on the desk with a loud bang, "You refused to ask you to get engaged earlier, and you didn't tell us about breaking up secretly. You clearly wanted to oppose me!"
Murong Shi didn't blink, and said calmly, "This is not an excuse, I'm not suitable for him, and sooner or later we will split."
Sun An said angrily, "You hide such an important matter from me, do you have a father like me in your eyes?"
Murong Shi was silent and said, "Dad, let me ask you a question, if the person I was with wasn't Jiang Shaohua, but another man, would you still be as excited as you are now?"
"What do you mean?"
"In your eyes, money and face are the most important things, right? If that person wasn't Jiang Shaohua, or if Uncle Jiang wasn't so rich, you would have wanted us to break up long ago, right?"
Sun An's face twitched and pointed at her nose: "Pay attention to who you're talking to, I'm your dad!"
Murong Shi stopped talking.
Seeing her nonchalant look, Sun An became more and more angry: "You are so disappointing to me."
Murong Shi finally couldn't hold back his sneer and said, "To be honest, I'm also very disappointed in you."
"What did you say?"
"You are not a competent husband, let alone a competent father. Apart from money and interests, what else do you have in your eyes?"
Sun An was furious: "You bastard!"
With a "pop", Murong Shi received a heavy slap on the face.
When the palm came down, both of them were stunned.
There were five clear slap prints on Murong Shi's white and tender cheeks. The hair on her forehead was messed up and her head was buzzing. She looked at the person in front of her in disbelief and felt strange.
Sun An reached out to touch her face: "Xiao Shi, Dad is not..."
Murong Shi avoided his touch in disgust.
The twilight was dark, and the dark clouds in the sky were like a huge net, which was overwhelming. Murong Shi ran out on impulse, but didn't know where to go.
She turned off the phone, except for the sound of the engine, there was only eerie silence and deadly temperature in the car.
The icy cold overflowing from the bottom of her heart made her forget that she didn't turn on the air conditioner, and the only thing she felt in her body was the slapped face, which was burning hot.
Murong Shi thought she had been used to it since she was a child, but when Sun An's slap fell, she didn't feel anything on her face, but her heart was slammed.
After wandering aimlessly on the street, Murong Shi finally drove the car to the company.
There was no one in the company at this point in time, and the dark office was like a cemetery. The sound of high heels hitting the floor echoed in the corridor, the voice-activated sensor lights came on one by one, and she pushed open the heavy wooden door.
The blue light of the computer reflected on her pale face, which had swelled.
Only work can get rid of all distracting thoughts. Murong Shi made a strong cup of coffee for herself, no sugar or milk, and it was so bitter that she wanted to vomit.
…
Xu Chuanchuan was a bit lazy today. She returned to the dormitory at 8 o'clock, washed up at 9 o'clock, turned on the computer, and barely wrote a thousand words until 10 o'clock.
The inspiration was suddenly cut off. She looked back and previewed it. The more she looked, the more she felt that what she wrote was a piece of shit, and she gritted her teeth and deleted the thousand words.
Now she was faced with a blank document. After being in a daze for nearly ten minutes, her mind was still blank, and she was mad.
The keyboard was too expensive to smash, the mouse was useless if it was smashed, and she was even more reluctant to take her own breath away. Every time Kavin, she has three ways to decompress: either eat, take a bath, or run in place.
I can't eat it. I ate a bucket of instant noodles just now, and she will gain weight if she eats it again. She chooses to run in place, and if she has no inspiration after the run, she will take a shower.
It's so late anyway, and there's no one in the downstairs office, so don't worry about arguing.
Running in place also works muscles that have become stiff from sitting for too long.
Running for a minute, no inspiration.
Two minutes without inspiration.
Three minutes, still no inspiration.
After five minutes, she was a little out of breath, and her footsteps gradually slowed down. Just as she pulled out the chair and sat down, the phone on the table suddenly rang.
Xu Chuanchuan, who was thinking about the plot in her head, was taken aback, and when she picked it up, it was an unfamiliar number, she thought it was a harassing call. After waiting for a few seconds, the bell was still ringing, and she pressed to answer.
"Hey?"
The person on the other end scolded her: "What are you doing up there if you don't sleep at night?"
Xu Chuanchuan was immediately scolded and stunned. She felt that the voice was very familiar, but she was not very sure: "Are you... Miss Murong?"
"Otherwise, is it a ghost?"
"..." Xu Chuanchuan was speechless for a while, and then calmed down, "Why did you call me so late?"
Murong Shi said in a bad tone, "You are so noisy that I can't work."
"Work?" Xu Chuanchuan was confused and suddenly remembered what she said at the beginning, "You mean, are you in the office now?"
"Um."
Xu Chuanchuan: "..."
At this moment, Xu Chuanchuan finally understood why this room was so big. It turned out that it was Murong Shi's office directly facing below.
But didn't Murong Shi leave beforehand? Why come back to work overtime at this time
With hindsight, she thought that since Murong Shi was working overtime, as a temporary assistant, would she have to wait there too
"Do you need me to go down?"
"No. Just be quiet for me."
call ended.
The gloomy aura of Murong Shi could be felt through the electric current. Xu Chuanchuan put down the phone carefully and moved the chair carefully. Although she was already very light and light, the sound of the mechanical keyboard was too powerful. .
Xu Chuanchuan: "The boss's daughter is working overtime below, and I'm running on it. I was threatened by her call just now. The bell at midnight is so scary!"
Anji: "Running at night?"
Xu Chuanchuan: "Do sports."
Anji: "Others exercise in bed at night, but you run at night."
Xu Chuanchuan: "..." Can we have a good chat
Suddenly I thought: How could Murong Shi have her phone number
Xu Chuanchuan picked up the phone to check the call history just now. At this moment, the screen flashed and the phone rang again. Taking a closer look, it was the same number as before, and she was startled again.
She just didn't dare to move...
She timidly pressed the answer: "Hello?"
I was ready to be scolded, but I didn't expect Murong Shi to say: "Do you have anything to eat?"
"Uh, just yogurt instant noodles and a few apples, do you want to eat it?"
Murong Shi pondered for a while and said, "Instant noodles."
In the evening, Murong Shi actually asked her to eat instant noodles, it was hell.
Xu Chuanchuan cleared his throat: "Then I'll soak it up and take it for you."
"You dare to come down so dark?"
Who do you look down on
Well, she really didn't dare.
Seeing her silence, Murong Shi said, "Forget it, I'll go up by myself."
! ! !
Hearing that Murong Shi was about to come up, Xu Chuanchuan threw away his phone, quickly got up and stuffed the pile of clothes behind the chair into the cabinet, kicked the mess of shoes under the bed, and was about to climb on the bed and fold the quilt, when he suddenly woke up.
It's impossible for Murong Shi to enter her room, why is she so nervous
Fortunately, the living room is not used, the floor is clean, and the sofa is spotless. As soon as Xu Chuanchuan boiled the water, he heard the sound of the door lock turning. When she walked over, Murong Shi had already opened the door by herself.
Xu Chuanchuan stared at the key in her hand.
Murong Shi explained: "There are three keys to the gate, you and Linda each have one, and I have one here."
Only then did Xu Chuanchuan remember that this room was originally prepared for Murong Shi, so it wasn't surprising. She smiled awkwardly and said, "I only have Laotan Pickled Cabbage Beef Noodles, do you want to eat it?"
"whatever."
"Then wait a while, the water is still boiling." Xu Chuanchuan pointed to the sofa, "You sit first."
Because she was too lazy to wash the dishes, she always bought instant noodles in buckets. She took out a bucket from the refrigerator, squatted in front of the coffee table, and was about to tear open the package.
"Thank you, I'll do it myself." Murong Shi said, "Go and do your own thing."
Xu Chuanchuan withdrew his hand: "It's okay, I'm not busy." She couldn't possibly leave Murong Shi here to code, and she didn't have any clues now.
She watched Murong Shi slowly tore open the package: "Are you still working so late?"
"Um."
With a "ding" sound, the water boiled, and Xu Chuanchuan ran over to bring the boiling water over. The noodles were soaked in boiling water, and the smell of sauerkraut spread out at once, and the smell made people want to drool.
"You shouldn't usually eat instant noodles, right?" Xu Chuanchuan had nothing to say.
"I don't eat much. You shouldn't eat less." Murong Shi glanced at the trash can under the coffee table, where there was a leftover instant noodle bucket.
Xu Chuanchuan just laughed, the next second, she couldn't laugh anymore.
"You shouldn't be able to eat a bucket, right?"
“… I ate a little at the dinner party earlier… I wasn’t very hungry…”
The water was very hot, and the instant noodles boiled quickly.
Murong Shi still had her hair tied back when they parted, but now it's completely let down, with a little more feminine charm. If it wasn't for a bucket of instant noodles in his hand, Xu Chuanchuan thought this picture would be perfect. She was embarrassed to stare at others eating, so she hid in the room.
Ten minutes later, when she came out of the room, Murong Shi had finished eating the noodles, but she didn't eat sauerkraut or soup.
Xu Chuanchuan asked, "Have you eaten yet?"
Murong Shi looked at her: "Is there anything to drink?"
"There's yogurt."
Murong Shi frowned, "Why is it all sour."
Xu Chuanchuan took another look at the yogurt floating in the bucket, guessing that Murong Shi probably didn't like sour. She pointed to the kettle on the coffee table: "Why don't you drink water, but I don't have any extra cups..."
"There are also under the water." Murong Shi's eyes rolled, and suddenly he said, "Want to drink?"
Xu Chuanchuan was surprised: "I don't have wine here."
"Then call for takeout."
Xu Chuanchuan was stunned and stared at Murong Shi, always feeling that Murong Shi was not the same as usual. Half of her face was covered by her hair, and those dark eyes lacked their usual sharpness and grace, and looked a little sad.
Xu Chuanchuan probed carefully: "Are you in a bad mood?"
Murong Shi was expressionless: "No, I just want to drink suddenly."
"But after drinking, how are you going to drive back?"
Murong Shi lowered her eyes and said softly, "I didn't intend to go back."
This time Xu Chuanchuan could finally be sure that Murong Shi was indeed in a bad mood, although she refused to admit it.
But why? Quarrel with boyfriend
Xu Chuanchuan didn't dare to inquire too much, she was thinking whether she should say something comforting.
But Murong Shi is always so strong, does she need someone to comfort her
After a moment of hesitation, she heard Murong Shi say, "If you don't want to drink it, forget it." She stood up, "Excuse me, the instant noodles are delicious, thank you very much."
Murong Shi, who was wearing high heels, was a head taller than her. At that instant, Xu Chuanchuan suddenly found that Murong Shi's back was a little thin, which made people feel the urge to go up and hug her...
Xu Chuanchuan was startled by this thought, and unexpectedly bumped into Murong Shi's unpredictable eyes, she panicked and said without thinking: "If you really want to drink, I can accompany you. ."
But Murong Shi was surprised.
Humans are visual animals, no matter men or women, it should be difficult to reject a beautiful woman like Murong Shi.
An hour later, Xu Chuanchuan regretted being impulsive just now.
The takeaway was delivered half an hour later. There was only beer and no other side dishes. Xu Chuanchuan could not drink enough, so she could only drink one can at most.
Seeing Murong Shi drink two cans one after another, almost breathlessly, Xu Chuanchuan was stunned.
There was something wrong with Murong Shi tonight.
She originally wanted to say "don't drink it", but instead she said, "Aren't your stomach bloated?"
Without saying a word, Murong Shi was going to open the third can.
Xu Chuanchuan's head was hot, he grabbed the can of beer and said, "Don't drink it, I have to go to work tomorrow."
Murong Shi smiled: "Tomorrow is the weekend." He reached out to grab it.
Xu Chuanchuan leaned back.
Murong Shi fluttered, a little annoyed.
Maybe it was the pot of wine that played a role, and Xu Chuanchuan found that he had grown bolder. She bypassed Murong Shi, intending to hide the can of wine, when her wrist suddenly tightened.
Before she understood what was going on, her body was pulled over and her neck was hooked.
Immediately afterwards, two cool lips sealed her mouth.
Xu Chuanchuan's breathing stagnated, as if his soul had been taken away.
The author has something to say: Calvin is uncontrollable. If you can't see the update after nine o'clock, you don't have to wait, and the same is true the next day. I won't ask for leave in the future, everyone understands.
Thanks to the girl who cast mine for me, I spent a lot of money.
