At noon, Song Shu and Yao Yiqun came back from Vio's staff cafeteria together. On the way, Yao Yiqun once again tactfully advised Song Shu not to go to the Human Resources Department with Lisa, but Song Shu dismissed her with just a few words.
After the two returned to the Legal and Compliance Department on the 12th floor, Lisa looked like she had been waiting for them next to Song Shu's desk.
When she saw Song Shu coming over, Lisa's eyes lit up, "Qin Qing, I think it's better to get the access certificate for the archives room as soon as possible. If you don't have anything to do now, then let's go to the Human Resources Department?"
"Okay." Song Shu nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Lisa."
Lisa dodged Yao Yiqin's helpless and dissatisfied gaze. She ran up to Song Shu and held his arm, "Helping a new colleague is what Sister Qin taught us. Sister Qin, we'll leave first."
Under Yao Yiqun's still disapproving gaze, Song Shu picked up the prepared supporting documents and walked towards the elevator with Lisa.
While waiting for the elevator, Lisa rolled her eyes and asked curiously, "I've heard people in the company mention Director Luan before. They all said that although she has a straightforward temper, she is still a good person. Qin Qing, you just returned to China not long ago, how come you offended Director Luan as soon as you came to the company?"
"I don't know either." Song Shuwei lowered his eyes, seeming a little helpless. "From my first day at work, when I went to the Human Resources Department to handle the entry procedures, Director Luan didn't like me at first sight."
Lisa turned her head and looked Song Shu up and down. Then she nodded seriously, "It must be because you are so beautiful."
Song Shu really didn't expect Lisa to say this. After a pause, she continued, "There are many beautiful colleagues in the company. I am nothing. And I don't think Minister Luan would be dissatisfied with me for such a small reason. Maybe I did something I shouldn't have done."
"You just joined the company that day, and I heard from Dennis from the HR department that you had been there for less than three minutes, and Director Luan said that you could not go through the entry process. It must not be because of some trivial matter—" Lisa stopped talking abruptly. After a second or two, she reacted, turned her head and smiled guiltily at Song Shu, "I also happened to hear the people from the HR department talking together in the cafeteria... Qin Qing, you won't blame me for being nosy, right?"
"Of course not."
Lisa looked around and saw that there was no one around. She came over to Song Shu and whispered, "Actually, I have some guesses. I think this matter is probably related to President Qin."
"Um?"
"You may not have heard of this since you just arrived, but the relationship between President Qin and Minister Luan has always been an unsolved mystery in our company and even in the venture capital industry. Our President Qin is a person who never gets involved in anything, but I have a special liking for Minister Luan from the Human Resources Department. When Minister Luan first joined the company, it was also President Qin's first special promotion to a relative - so, there have always been rumors in the company that they have an ambiguous relationship."
Song Shu pretended to be confused, "Then what does this have to do with me?"
"..." Lisa glanced at her, with a bit of scrutiny and uncertainty, "Although Qin Qing, you said you don't know Mr. Qin, but Mr. Qin does treat you differently. Apart from anything else, the incident in the cafeteria last week was very strange."
Song Shu smiled helplessly.
The elevator just arrived at this floor. Knowing that Lisa beside him had already been whetted by Luan Qiaoqing's interest in the matter, Song Shu did not say anything more. She reminded, "The elevator is here, let's go in."
"Oh, okay."
The two of them stepped into the elevator. The door closed and the elevator went down. Almost as soon as this elevator started to be used, the elevator next door also stopped at the 12th floor.
After the elevator door opened, under the gaze of the terrified members in the elevator, the man standing at the front walked out of the elevator and walked towards the cubicle office area of the Legal and Compliance Department.
Before the door closed again, I could still hear a low discussion inside:
"Why is Mr. Qin coming to the 12th floor?"
“Which project’s legal text is stuck?”
"No project is so important that President Qin has to come downstairs in person to check on it, right? Is there no phone number, no assistant, or no project manager?"
"Could it be that newcomer who angered Minister Luan and went to the Legal and Compliance Department as previously rumored..."
"I think it's 80% certain."
"Boss Qin's behavior really lives up to his reputation in the industry."
"… "
On the Legal and Compliance Department floor, Yao Yiqun, who had just come back from getting some water, came out of the tea room and was stunned when she looked up.
"Boss Qin?"
Yao Yiqun almost wanted to turn around to see if she had gotten some water and then went straight to the general manager's office on the 22nd floor.
Qin Lou nodded, and just as he was about to walk over, he stopped.
"Have you seen Song...Qinqing?"
Yao Yiqun was stunned for a moment, and his expression became subtle.
From the moment Song Shu appeared in the work area on the HR department floor, the entire work area of the HR department fell into an eerie silence.
Lisa stood with Song Shu at the entrance of the floor for four or five seconds. No one came forward to ask her anything. She smiled awkwardly, tilted her head towards Song Shu, and her voice was squeezed out from between her teeth.
"Qin Qing, are you sure we have to go to the archives room?"
Song Shu also had a headache: if this continued, she would sooner or later become the public enemy of the Human Resources Department.
Just as the two were standing there awkwardly, the HR department finally reacted. After some pushing and shoving, Dennis, who was acquainted with Song Shu, was pushed out.
"Ms. Qin, Ms. Qin," Dennis' smile looked a little painful, "Why are you in the Human Resources Department? Is there any employee procedure that has not been completed?"
Song Shu didn't seem to notice his strangeness, and still had that gentle smile on her face. "No, I'm doing due diligence and a feasibility report for a project I was assigned last week. I need to use some legal files from previous years, so I want to ask Minister Luan to approve an application for access to the archives."
Dennis's expression suddenly twisted, "Looking for Minister Luan?"
"What's wrong? Minister Luan is not here?"
"Yes, it is, but..."
"Minister Luan has a visitor or a meeting? Then I can wait."
"Um, not really." Dennis hesitated for a few seconds, and finally waved his hand dejectedly, "Okay, then come with me. But I can't guarantee that Minister Luan can approve this for you."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
Dennis took Song Shu and Lisa to the office of the Director of the Human Resources Department and stopped in front of the frosted glass door.
Dennis knocked cautiously on the glass door.
"Come in." Luan Qiaoqing's voice came from inside.
Dennis shrank his head, turned back, and lowered his voice to the lowest level: "Then Miss Qin will go in by herself?"
Upon hearing this, Lisa immediately gestured to Song Shu that she was waiting outside.
Song Shu nodded and pushed the door into the office.
Lisa and Dennis are old friends. When it comes to gossip, both are "leaders" in their respective departments of the company. They have been chatting frequently over the past few years, and have become familiar with each other.
So there was no need for words outside the door at this moment. The two of them made eye contact and their ears pricked up.
As expected, a few seconds later, Luan Qiaoqing's angry voice rang out in the office:
"Why is it you?!"
"Minister Luan, I have a need for a project I'm following, so I came to you to approve an application for access to the archives - here are the supporting documents."
"…Application for access to the archives?" Luan Qiaoqing sneered, "You started following the project right after joining the company. You want to access the old legal files right after the project starts. You are quite proactive, aren't you?"
"This is my job."
"Since it's your job, then do it yourself. I haven't heard of the application for access to the archives, so I don't know."
"Minister Luan, the Archives Office is a subordinate department of the Human Resources Department." The woman's voice sounded a little embarrassed. "Vice President Lin is still on a field trip this week. If you don't agree, I can only go to President Qin."
"You-you threatened me?"
"Minister Luan?"
"Don't think that just because you look like my sister, my brother will really treat you as his lover! You're dreaming! Even if he is temporarily deceived by your appearance, sooner or later he will find out that you are not the one at all! Have you ever thought about how ugly your death will be when that day comes?!"
"Minister Luan, I don't understand what you are talking about."
"Don't play innocent with me! Let me tell you, you think you have imitated it very well, right? But in my eyes, you are not even as good as a hair of Song Shu!"
"… "
There was a sudden silence from inside the door, leaving only the sound of Luan Qiaoqing's angry breathing. The other person didn't say anything - as if he was choking.
Lisa and Dennis looked at each other outside the door. Just as they were about to say something, a hand suddenly reached out from in front of them and pushed open the glass door between them.
"Stop!" Dennis got angry and turned around to scold this ignorant newcomer, but then all his anger got stuck in his throat -
"Qin, President Qin?!"
Qin Lou ignored him and strode in.
Inside the open office door, he stopped beside the surprised Song Shu.
Qin Lou stared at Song Shu, and after a few seconds, the corners of his mouth curled up.
"Isn't it enough that they look alike? She's the most like her I've seen in all these years."
"Brother?!" Luan Qiaoqing stared at the man in disbelief, "What are you talking about! What do you think my sister is now!?"
Qin Lou raised his eyes and said, "Give her the approval."
