When I walked in, I was ready to nod. Just as I was about to say hello, I saw a young woman sitting on a leather chair, wearing a white business suit. She made a wait gesture to me, and then The call was answered.
I stood at the door and watched the woman answer the phone, smile brightly, and then communicate with the person on the other end of the phone in pure Japanese with a Tokyo accent.
I studied Japanese at my second foreign school, and my spoken English was often praised by the foreign teachers at school. But to be honest, compared with the woman in front of me, I was still a little behind. At least I couldn’t hold a phone or sit in front of me. He nodded and bowed like a normal person.
The woman spoke for almost five minutes before hanging up. Then she looked at me. I immediately bowed politely and said, "Hello, I am Liang Zijin who is here for an internship."
The woman was about to say something, but the phone rang again, and she had to say to me: "Sorry."
I immediately said: "It's okay, you take it."
After the woman answered the phone this time, she changed to Korean again, and her expression was very formal. It seemed that what she was talking about was not simple. I didn't minor in Korean, so I couldn't understand anything she said.
I stood at the door for a few more minutes. After the woman hung up the phone, she looked at me with a smile on her face and said, "Sorry to keep you waiting. Sit down."
"It's okay, Minister Zhou."
I walked to the guest chair in front of the table and sat down, because I accidentally saw a name tag on the table, which said: Director of the Translation Department: Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu is not only not the middle-aged man I imagined, but a young woman. I suspect she is in her early thirties at most. The hair is as meticulous as the makeup.
She looked at me with a smile and said, "Your name is Liang Zijin, right."
I nodded: "Yes."
Zhou Yu said: "Okay, I will take you out to meet everyone."
I followed Zhou Yu out of the office, and she walked in front in high heels. When everyone saw her appearance, they quickly put down what they were doing and looked at her attentively.
Zhou Yu stood in the open space of the office, clapped his hands, and then said with a smile: "I would like to introduce to you a new colleague, Liang Zijin."
I faced everyone, bowed ninety degrees, and said with a smile: "Hello, seniors, my name is Liang Zijin, and I am a new intern. I would like to ask all seniors to take care of me in the future."
Everyone clapped their hands to welcome me. Zhou Yu said to me: "Liang Zijin, you will sit in that seat from now on. If you don't understand anything, you can ask your colleagues around you."
I nodded: "I understand, Minister Zhou."
After Zhou Yu finished speaking, she told everyone to leave, and she turned back to the office. Wang Huining stood in front of me and said with a smile: "Zijin, you will sit next to me from now on."
I responded with a smile and walked to the seats in the back with Wang Huining.
The moment I sat on the chair, I looked at the brand-new computer and brand-new appliances in front of me. I was still in a trance. Have I really entered the Luo family? Why did everything happen so suddenly
But what was even more sudden was yet to come, because when I arrived at the translation department, it was already past five in the afternoon, and the company's normal off-duty time is six in the evening, so it didn't take long for everyone to get ready to get off work.
Wang Huining came to my side and asked with a smile: "Newcomer, do you want to treat me to dinner tonight?"
I was about to say that I must invite you, but I only heard the tapping of high-heeled shoes behind me. Not long after, I caught a glimpse of a tall figure standing beside me from the corner of my eye. When I looked sideways, I saw that it was the person who took me into the interviewer's room yesterday. Female assistant.
While I was still speechless, I could only hear the people around me greeting the woman politely and respectfully: "Assistant Qiao."
The woman smiled and nodded, but her movements were almost invisible, and her arrogance and disdain could be seen in the details.
When I saw this posture, I stood up subconsciously, with a trace of doubt in my eyes.
