A few days later, Su Zelin embarked on his journey to Shenghai.
I don't have much to do during the day, so I just go around a few large direct-operated stores in the city, ask about the situation, and make appointments with store managers for lunch or something.
This went on until the evening, when I finished my business. I looked at the time and it was already five o'clock, so I called Tao Min's cell phone.
After a while, the voice of a girl from northern Anhui floated out of the microphone: "Hi, junior."
"Senior, do you want to make a date tonight?"
The scoundrel came straight to the point.
"Junior, have you arrived at Shenghai?"
There was a hint of surprise in Tao Min's tone.
Su Zelin only said that he would go to Shenghai in the next few days, but did not tell her the specific time. Unexpectedly, he arrived there suddenly.
Su Zelin said with a smile: "Haha, senior sister has an appointment, how dare I disobey!"
"Oh, I haven't seen you for more than a year. President Su still gives me face. I'm really flattered. Where are you? I just got off work. I'll come to see you right away!"
Tao Min responded while tidying up the things on the table.
"Senior, you can see me when you walk out of the office door."
After the two resumed contact, Tao Min told Hunzi her work unit during a chat on QQ, so he navigated directly to her.
"Um, you're at the door of our unit?"
Tao Min was a little confused: "Okay, then I'll go out right away!"
She walked out of the office quickly, taking out the dressing mirror from her bag and tidying up her appearance on the way.
Arriving at the gate, she looked around and saw that besides the taxi, there was also a black sedan. Although it had a Lin'an license plate, it was not the Santana that she remembered Su Zelin driving.
Just as Tao Min was wondering, the three-box sedan drove over, the window slowly lowered, and a familiar but long-missed face with a bit of cynical smile appeared in front of her eyes.
"What's the matter? Am I more manly after graduation, so the senior can't recognize me anymore?"
It’s still that familiar taste.
Tao Min couldn't help but roll her eyes at him: "Stop being so narcissistic, okay? It's just that you got a new car and I didn't recognize it!"
Su Zelin laughed: "It's just that the official car has been upgraded. Our General Manager Yang has changed four circles. I will drive this one. Senior sister, get in the car first, and we will talk slowly later!"
Tao Min sat in the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt.
This guy took the opportunity to take a look at the girl from northern Anhui whom he met again after a long time.
There are some changes compared to when she was in school. Although she is only one year older, her dress has become more mature.
Her soft, satin-like hair was combed meticulously, her eyebrows were drawn very slenderly, she wore light makeup, and a little lip gloss to brighten her look. Her whole mental outlook was neat and tidy, and with a slim-fitting commuter blouse and an over-the-knee A-line skirt, anyone could tell at first glance that she was a working woman, and there was a clear difference between her and a college student who had not yet graduated.
Society is a big melting pot. People who have experienced the baptism of society will quickly see their temperament transformed.
In simple terms, it means becoming more social.
When children meet someone with this kind of temperament, they usually call her "Auntie" instead of "Sister".
After looking at her for a few seconds, Su Zelin looked away and asked casually, "Senior, where are we going to eat? You are the local boss in Shenghai now. I will rely on you to make arrangements tonight. I am waiting for you to learn more!"
"Come on, Mr. Su, you've been to Shenghai so many times, and your experience is probably much broader than that of a poor rookie employee like me who rents a house and goes to work all day. You should teach me something new!"
Having said that, Tao Min still gave him an address.
This is a restaurant that their unit often frequents for gatherings. The environment is nice, the food tastes good, the prices are reasonable, and it is not far from the unit, so it only takes a short while to get there.
The focus of this meeting was not on eating, but on reuniting friends. They ordered a few dishes casually and chatted casually while drinking tea.
It's mainly about work. Tao Min works as an accountant payable in the unit. His duties are to organize documents, reconcile accounts, make payments, register bills payable, write off each relevant amount, and keep original payment vouchers.
Although she had a stable job, the day-to-day work was very boring and her life was boring, which made her feel a little bored.
"Junior, I really envy you. Being a senior executive in a rapidly growing company, you get a good salary, are full of motivation, and have freedom. This is much better than my job."
At the end, Tao Min sighed.
"Senior, the company has its advantages. At least it's comfortable and the benefits are great. I think you are dissatisfied with the current situation mainly because you are too empty. Just find a boyfriend."
Su Zelin gave her a psychological analysis.
"Come on, it's not that easy to find a suitable boyfriend!"
Tao Min said helplessly: "Didn't I tell you that the young employees in our company are either fat otakus or mama's boys. I'm not interested in them."
"You can develop externally, Senior Sister, what kind of man do you want to find?"
Su Zelin asked, "It just so happens that I also know some young and promising friends in Shenghai. How about introducing them to you when I have the chance?"
"Someone like you."
Tao Min blurted out.
Both of them were stunned.
"This may be a bit difficult. There is only one Su Zelin in the world."
The scoundrel could only laugh dryly.
You are right, there is only one Su Zelin in the world, and it is precisely because of his uniqueness that he is unforgettable.
In fact, when she graduated, Tao Min had already made up her mind not to contact any more scoundrels, so as to avoid getting stuck in the same quagmire.
Later, every time she saw the lit up avatar of "very handsome at one year old", she had the urge to chat with him. She controlled herself for a long time, but finally during the Chinese New Year, she couldn't help but send a message to Su Zelin, and then she couldn't stop.
She had to admit that although this boy was very dangerous and it was easy for women to become his love captives, it was always fun to chat with him. Even when she was most upset, he could make her laugh, so she liked this feeling very much. When Su Zelin said he was coming to Shenghai, Tao Min was actually looking forward to it in her heart these days.
Thinking this in her heart, Tao Min covered her mouth and laughed: "I'm just kidding, look how nervous you are, senior sister hasn't planned to find a boyfriend yet, just go with the flow, it will come naturally when it's time!"
The two chatted and laughed in the restaurant, the atmosphere was relaxed and harmonious, as if they had returned to the time when they were in the School of Finance.
After the meal, Tao Min walked to the front desk to pay the bill, but was told that it had already been paid. She immediately guessed that it was Su Zelin who paid the bill under the excuse of going to the bathroom.
"Junior, didn't I say that I'd pay for this meal? Why are you rushing to pay? Although my salary isn't high, I can still afford to treat you to a meal!"
Tao Min pretended to be angry.
"Haha, it doesn't matter who buys it. I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm happy. Besides, I don't have the habit of letting ladies buy me meals."
Su Zelin smiled.
"Okay, I know you are rich."
Tao Min was a little helpless, because this junior classmate was tall, rich and handsome. He had money and was willful when he was in school. He often treated her and her roommates to dinner.
Of course, although he complained, Tao Min actually enjoyed this gentlemanly demeanor.
When I walked out of the restaurant door, it was just getting dark and it was still early.
There was a park nearby, so they took a walk there, then found a bar, listened to soothing light music, drank some fruit tea, and before they knew it, it was almost ten o'clock.
Tao Min had to go to work as usual tomorrow morning, and Su Zelin didn't want her to stay with him too late, so he sent her home.
Tao Min's unit did not arrange a dormitory for her, but she received a housing allowance. She lived in an apartment building near the unit, which was not far from the bar, so she could easily reach the door.
The Passat stopped, but Tao Min did not get out of the car. Instead, he asked tentatively, "Junior, do you want to get in and sit for a while?"
It’s getting late, and Senior Sister Tao invited me to her apartment at this time. What does it mean for a single man and a single woman
Moreover, she doesn't have a boyfriend and is still single.
Su Zelin couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.
"Don't get the wrong idea. I live here with another roommate."
Seeing the gangster's evil intentions, Tao Min said unhappily.
Uh, I misunderstood!
Su Zelin was a little embarrassed and quickly changed the subject: "Senior Sister Tao, since your roommate is here too, I'm afraid it's inconvenient for me to come here uninvited, right?"
"It's okay. She's my colleague from the same unit. We graduated in the same class. We have similar personalities and are pretty familiar with each other."
Tao Min smiled and said, "Just now she asked me where I went to play. I told her that a handsome guy came from Lin'an to see me. He was my idol from the Finance College. The woman was a fangirl. She got interested as soon as she heard it. She insisted that I take you up to let her see him and verify whether he was really that handsome!"
"Well, in that case, I will respectfully obey your command!"
Su Zelin also wanted to see what Tao Min's residence was like, so he did not refuse and drove directly into the gate. According to Tao Min, there was a shared underground parking lot in the community, but it was charged.
I found an empty space in the parking lot. While getting out of the car and walking towards the elevator, I observed the situation in the parking lot. I discovered that there were quite a few good cars, including BBA. In that era, BBA was not as common as it is today, and only rich people could afford one.
It seems that this apartment building is of high quality. Tao Min is a person who pays attention to the quality of life, and she will not put herself in a difficult position.
I took the elevator to the fifth floor and saw a girl about the same age as Tao Min as soon as I entered the door. Needless to say, she was her roommate.
She is about 1.55 meters tall, petite and pretty, and looks okay, but there is a gap between her and Tao Min.
"Wow, Minmin, is this the idol from your old school? He's really handsome!"
When she saw Su Zelin, the female roommate held her face and screamed exaggeratedly.
"See? I told you she's a nympho!"
Tao Min had expected her roommate to have such a reaction.
Normally, when she sees a handsome boy on the street, she would look at him a few more times and would want to go over and chat with him. But if she met someone of Su Zelin's level, she would drool.
"My junior from the Finance Institute store, Su Zelin!"
"Gan Ting, my colleague from Jinling University of Finance and Economics."
Tao Min briefly introduced the two people.
"Hi, hello, Senior Gan. I hope I didn't disturb you by coming here without your permission!"
Su Zelin greeted Gan Ting generously.
Since she is in the same class as Tao Min, she can be considered my senior.
"Not only is he handsome, but he also has a very sweet mouth."
Gan Ting benefited greatly from it.
"No wonder Tao Min likes you. I've never seen this woman go out on a date with any man."
"What are you talking about!"
Tao Min blushed all of a sudden and started chasing after her roommate.
"Am I wrong? No wonder she looks down on other men. It turns out she already has a man in her heart!"
Gan Ting has a very active personality. She likes to joke and laugh without restraint.
The two girls played around for a while before Tao Min finally realized something and poured a glass of water for Su Zelin: "This nympho is just talking nonsense, junior brother, don't take it to heart!"
"Haha, it's okay."
Being cared for by a mature, independent and beautiful senior schoolmate, the gangster felt a little proud.
While drinking water, I took the opportunity to visit this small apartment.
It has one living room and two bedrooms, which is a little smaller than the one rented by Lu Haoran and Xiao Yanzi. It is only about 60 square meters in total, but it is very exquisite and clean.
Unlike some girls, who dress like goddesses in front of others but live in a place that is dirtier than a doghouse.
"You just graduated this year, what do you do now?"
Gan Ting asked with interest.
This is the habit of people in the workplace who have just graduated, they are used to asking other people about their jobs.
"I work at New Century. Have you heard of me, Senior Gan?"
"New Century? Of course I've heard of it. This company is now quite famous in Shenghai. Almost every university has its stores, and it often appears in TV commercials and news! You have a bright future, Junior Brother Su. I can tell from the first glance that you are a smart person. If you work hard, you will definitely be able to make a name for yourself in the future!"
Gan Ting also gave Su Zelin some special encouragement.
Tao Min laughed dumbly: "Come on, you crazy girl, don't worry about him. This guy is more successful than any of us. He has already made a name for himself. He is now the operations director of New Century!"
"What, operations director?"
Gan Ting was dumbfounded.
She knew what the position entailed.
In any company, any position with the suffix "director" will not be of low level.
However, isn’t this junior student Su a rookie who just graduated
"The first store opened by New Century was in our Finance Institute. He was the store manager right after the store opened. Later, he was promoted to store manager. As New Century opened more and more stores, he became the operations director."
Tao Min gave a brief explanation.
"Fuck, isn't Su a company executive?"
Gan Ting couldn't believe it: "You are so awesome!"
"It's OK, a bit of luck."
Su Zelin said modestly.
"Being able to become the operations director is not just luck, it's real ability!"
Gan Ting was a little envious and jealous.
"Then your salary must be over 10,000 yuan, no, at least over 20,000 yuan!"
"It's OK, just to make a living."
"You call this just making a living, then Minmin and I are worse than beggars, 55555..."
"… "
After this conversation, Su Zelin's status in Gan Ting's mind soared again.
Before graduation, a boy's image in the eyes of the opposite sex mainly depends on his appearance and academic performance.
After graduation, family background and work become more important.
If a man has a good family background and a good job, even an average-looking man can be pleasing to the eye.
Because girls at this age are more realistic and more social, many of them have begun to gradually understand that being handsome cannot make a living.
If a man is good-looking and has a high-end job, he is undoubtedly a male god.
If she wasn't pretty enough and Tao Min was interested in this male god, Gan Ting would have wanted to hook up with him.
He didn't stay in the apartment for too long. After drinking a glass of water and sitting for a while, Su Zelin stood up and said goodbye.
"Senior, I have to go. You should get some rest too."
"Hey, Junior Su, are you leaving now? It's still early, not even eleven o'clock yet. How about sitting for a while?"
Before Tao Min could say anything, Gan Ting enthusiastically tried to keep her.
"It's okay for us to stay here tonight. I have headphones anyway, so I can just pretend I didn't hear anything."
Tao Min almost fainted.
Having an active roommate usually keeps you from being bored, but the problem is that this woman dares to say anything.
"Nympho, what are you talking about? My junior and I are not in that kind of relationship. We are just good friends!"
Gan Ting curled her lips and said disapprovingly: "Come on, with such a handsome man around, who wouldn't make a move? It's only a matter of time. Minmin, stop pretending!"
Tao Min really couldn't stand her roommate's chattering, so she hurried out the door with Su Zelin. If that woman continued talking, it would seem that she was really having an affair with her junior.
The two of them came to the underground parking lot and found their Santana. Su Zelin stopped in front of the car and said, "Okay, Senior Sister Tao, you can go back."
"Okay, junior, then drive slowly."
Having said that, she did not move until the Santana engine started and drove out of the parking space, then she walked towards the elevator.
Back to the door of the rental house.
“Ding Dong!”
A new QQ message came on my phone, I opened it and took a look.
But it was sent by Su Zelin.
He was handsome at the age of one: "Senior sister, I am very happy to meet you tonight. Do you remember what I said to you before graduation? If you feel that your work is not going well, the door of the new century will always be open to you. You can come anytime you want!"
Tao Min stared at the message for a long time.
My junior did say something like this to me, and it was not just a casual remark. I still remember it now.
In fact, it’s not that I can’t let go of my comfortable life, but I’m afraid that if I go to your company, I’ll fall into it again!
I walked into the apartment with a conflicted feeling in my heart.
"Minmin, you idiot, you really let your idol go like this. It's useless to be reserved. People like this must be caught as soon as possible!"
Gan Ting was very disappointed with her.
Tao Min shook her head: "Don't try to be a matchmaker. She may not like me. She may just consider me as a friend."
"How is that possible? Someone came all the way from Lin'an to see you, date you, and even went to your apartment. If they didn't like you, would they do that?"
Gan Ting didn't believe it.
"It's not that special. He came here on business. Besides, do you think there will be few girls who like a boy like him?"
Having said that, Tao Min sighed.
Gan Ting stopped talking.
Perhaps, this is the real reason why his roommate is interested in this junior student Su but dares not get any closer.
Because there is always a shortage of outstanding and beautiful women around the male god.
She didn't want to be like a moth to a flame and fall into it.
