Was Aquaman’s ex-husband cremated today?

Chapter 56 Looking at the house

Zhou Yongan was not allowed to jump.

Li Qingwen cut off the video to prevent him from really going crazy.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival comes the National Day. Tong Xiao called her and invited her to go to Changbai Mountain together, but she gave up the idea when she saw the crowds of tourists there.

After resting at home for a day, Li Qingwen went to the city library with his notebook the next day.

She has been at Huayu for a long time, but has never experienced such a large-scale layoff. She is worried that she will not be able to handle it and will be scolded by her colleagues, so she wants to do more homework.

The city library was packed. Li Qingwen looked around and finally found an empty seat in a corner.

She gently put down the package, walked to the literature bookshelf, her eyes wandered over the books on display, and finally picked up a few psychology works at random.

When she returned to her seat and was about to open her book, a familiar figure walked towards her.

Li Qingwen raised his eyes and saw Jiang Lei from the Supervision Department wearing a casual T-shirt, walking calmly, holding a piece of advertising paper in his hand.

He smiled slightly and said, "Director Wen is here too."

As soon as he opened his mouth, people around him gave him strange looks. Li Qingwen felt a little uncomfortable and stood up and followed him outside.

"Didn't Minister Jiang go out to play on the 11th?" Li Qingwen asked.

"I don't like to move around, just like Director Wen, I came here to recharge myself." Jiang Lei responded with a smile.

As the head of Huayu's inspection team, Jiang Lei is not popular in the company. He strictly supervises the activities of all business positions in the company, and in the process he is bound to offend some people who do not follow the rules and regulations.

Li Qingwen had nothing to complain about him at work, but they didn't have much of a personal relationship. Plus, what happened the day before yesterday was so over the line that she was still angry.

She asked curiously, "Why do the members of your Supervision Department think so highly of you?"

Every time the promotion assessment stage came, the members of the Supervisory Department spoke highly of Jiang Lei, and even squeezed out the original head of the Supervisory Department, allowing him to be promoted all the way to his current position.

Jiang Lei looked at Li Qingwen tenderly, his clear eyes showing two points of modesty and eight points of satisfaction: "Do you think I don't deserve those comments?"

Not really. Li Qingwen was a little embarrassed by the question and could only say, "Minister Jiang is of course excellent, but I don't communicate much with the members of the supervision team, and I'm worried that they have been PUA by you."

Jiang Lei's eyes lit up and he chuckled, "Director Wen is really funny and humorous."

He unfolded the advertisement paper in his hand, revealing the location of the building. "This is a building of the World Trade Center, in Cuishan, and it has been officially put on sale recently. I have been paying attention to it for a while, and the overall price is not expensive for Licheng. Is Director Wen interested?"

Li Qingwen took the advertisement and carefully read the introduction and floor plan of the property.

Although she already had a wedding house, she had never enjoyed the benefits of the housing purchase policy as a Huayu employee. Thinking that the house in Jiyue Mansion would always belong to Zhou Yongan, she always felt uneasy.

Li Qingwen hesitated for a moment and then said, "I do have the idea of ​​buying a house."

Jiang Lei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "Why don't we go and take a look together tomorrow?"

Li Qingwen thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay."

Jiang Lei wanted to drive to pick her up tomorrow, but Li Qingwen said no need and would go by herself.

The next day, Li Qingwen arrived at the completed sales office of Cuishan Community at the agreed time. Jiang Lei was already waiting there, wearing a light green casual shirt, looking very fashionable.

The salesman saw them coming in together and mistakenly thought they were a couple. He greeted them with a big smile: "Sir, Madam, what type of room do you want to know?"

Li Qingwen immediately corrected the other party: "We are not. Please show me the layout of the two-bedroom and one-living room apartment."

"Brother and sister, please wait a moment."

Jiang Lei stood quietly aside, listening to the sales guy introduce three types of two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment types. His eyes moved across the floor plans, as if he was carefully considering the pros and cons of each type.

Li Qingwen frowned when he learned that the house here had not yet been delivered fully furnished.

Jiang Lei was very attentive and noticed her subtle expressions. He didn't say anything at the moment. After she left, he asked, "Are you in a hurry to check in?"

"No." Li Qingwen answered simply.

It was almost noon when the two left. Jiang Lei suggested that they have a meal together. Li Qingwen didn't want to have dinner with him, but he didn't want to be shy, so he thought about it and agreed.

They entered a high-end Western restaurant and the waiter handed them the menu.

Li Qingwen looked at the expensive prices on the menu and couldn't help feeling a little hesitant.

Although she is no longer a particularly frugal person after becoming self-reliant, she is also unwilling to spend too much money on a meal.

Li Qingwen was swiping at the menu while looking at Jiang Lei: "Does Minister Jiang often come to such high-end places to spend money?"

Jiang Lei smiled faintly and said, "Occasionally."

Li Qingwen remembered that when Jiang Lei first came to Huayu for internship, he almost couldn't stay. In the end, it was Director Liang who said hello to Sister Becca and asked him to stay.

Caviar, French foie gras, Japanese beef...

Looking at the food in front of her, Li Qingwen couldn't help but sigh. When she ate it with Zhou Yongan before, she refused to eat it a second time after eating it once because she felt sorry for the price.

Zhou Yongan also comforted her, telling her not to look at the price, but to look at everything around her with a normal mind. Whether it was food, facilities, or convenience, they were all serving humanity, and she was qualified to enjoy these services.

The waiter poured them the decanted red wine. Jiang Lei picked up the glass, swirled the red wine and said, "I saw Vice President Zhou pestering you a while ago, and I thought you would give him a chance."

The restaurant was playing soothing music, which should have made people feel calm.

Li Qingwen subconsciously thought that the opportunity Jiang Lei mentioned was a career opportunity. She felt helpless: "You also think that the vice president was suspended, and I was the one behind it."

Jiang Lei smiled, but did not correct himself. He continued, "Of course he has it all to himself. If he hadn't pestered you, no one would have reported him."

"Actually, I would admit it if I said I did it. After all, even if he wasn't suspended, I might have persuaded him to quit."

Jiang Lei raised his eyes, his clear gaze focused on the woman.

As colleagues for five years, he and Li Qingwen have watched each other grow step by step to where they are today. Although they are not close friends yet, Jiang Lei has always been paying attention to her silently.

"Are you doing this to attract Vice President Zhou's attention?" Like Old Wu, Jiang Lei felt that there was no better reason to explain her paranoia than this purpose.

Li Qingwen was too tired to complain and glanced at him: "Of course not."

Jiang Lei narrowed his eyes, unable to understand. He glanced at Li Qingwen and said, "Is it to attract Mr. Zhou's attention?"

In Huayu, which female employee doesn't miss the two brothers of the Zhou family? Li Qingwen has remained single for six years in Huayu. The fish he wants to catch must be big. Since he is not aiming for the second, then he must be the eldest, right?
