Beijing and Hong Kong kiss
Chapter 7 Dinner Party
Shi Jingyuan looked at her with a half-smile, and after a long while he said:
"Lake Court Residence."
Lin You had never heard of this place, but as long as a place had a name, it could always be found on the map.
She opened Shi Jingyuan's address book, searched for He Xuan's number and called him.
When the call was connected, there seemed to be a lot of noise on his end.
"Mr. Shi..."
"It's me, Lin You."
He Xuan seemed stunned for a moment, then said anxiously: "Sister Lin, I was just about to call Mr. Shi, but you called me first. Um... Sister Lin... can you help me?"
Lin You was stunned, "Well, go ahead."
He Xuan: "My girlfriend is not feeling well and needs to go to the hospital. I have to go pick her up now."
Lin You understood and asked softly, "What do you need me to do?"
"Sister Lin, you are such a nice person!" He Xuan thanked her repeatedly, "It's very simple, just help me send Mr. Shi home."
"Don't you have a driver?" Lin You didn't quite understand. Shi Jingyuan was just going home, why did he have to have an assistant to take him home?
He Xuan explained: "A driver is a driver, and an assistant is an assistant. They have different responsibilities."
Lin You: “…”
After hanging up the phone, Lin You told He Xuan about his girlfriend, and then asked tentatively: "Mr. Shi, do you need me to take you home instead of He Xuan?"
Anyone with healthy hands and feet would say no!
Lin You thought so and looked at him eagerly, with all her little thoughts written on her face without reservation.
Shi Jingyuan stared at her face deeply and said in a deep voice: "Need."
Lin You: “…”
Because Lin You was penniless, when he finally left the wonton shop, it was Shi Jingyuan who scanned the code to pay the bill.
"You owe me a meal."
"Yeah." Lin You followed behind him and responded indifferently.
However, she did not take this joke seriously. Given Shi Jingyuan's status, his dinner parties could only be scheduled for a few years later, and it was not really her turn to treat him.
It was late at night and most of the tourists in Gunan Street had left. Only the bustling pedestrians were strolling under the rows of red lanterns.
Shi Jingyuan walked in front, the dim yellow light lengthening his shadow. Lin You lagged behind by half a step, just stepping on his shadow.
The driver had already driven the car to the intersection in advance.
Shi Jingyuan opened the car door and sat in the back seat, but did not close the door.
Lin You hesitated for a moment, wondering whether, as a "temporary assistant", she should sit in the passenger seat.
"boarding."
Shi Jingyuan sat down closer to the inside, leaving the seat next to him empty.
Lin You didn't dare to keep him waiting for long, so he got into the car reluctantly.
The car door closed, and the driver looked through the rearview mirror and asked, "Mr. Shi, are we going back to Hu Ting Yaju?"
Shi Jingyuan didn't respond, but turned to ask Lin You: "Where do you live?"
"Uh... Shangcheng Apartment."
Lin You’s eyes widened. Was he going to send her home?
Just now I asked her to send it off. Were you teasing her?
Shi Jingyuan told the driver to go to Shangcheng Apartment, and the driver was obviously surprised.
Hu Ting Yaju and Shangcheng Apartment are in completely different directions.
The driver was very professional and never said anything that was not necessary. He set off immediately and thoughtfully played some soft instrumental music.
Shi Jingyuan noticed the driver's unnecessary behavior, but said nothing.
The car drove onto the Second Ring Elevated Road, passing through thousands of lights.
Lin You kept looking out the car window and had no intention of interacting with Shi Jingyuan.
After all, after tonight, they, who do not belong to the same class, will no longer have any contact with each other.
Shi Jingyuan had seen many women who used various means to attract his attention, but this was the first time he had met someone as quiet as her. He couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
The car stopped at the entrance of Shangcheng Apartment. Lin You thanked him respectfully before getting out of the car. "Thank you very much for always sending me home when it's troublesome. Take care."
The attitude is sincere and there is nothing wrong with it.
But Shi Jingyuan just felt inexplicably unhappy.
He closed the car door, without saying anything, and told the driver to drive.
Lin You stood on the side of the road, watching the luxury car speeding away, completely confused.
Do you always seem to be in a bad mood?
But why? She didn't say a word on the way, so it couldn't be that she made him angry.
So, it must be his own problem.
No wonder his assistant earns 50,000 yuan a month. With such an unpredictable personality, it is really not easy to be his assistant.
Forget it, don’t think about it anymore. What does it matter to her whether Mr. Shi is in a good mood or not?
*
After KSH Group went public, its stock price doubled in just one month, which strongly demonstrated Shi Jingyuan's decision-making ability.
The company's operations are improving, and all departments are filled with joy.
Manager Hu’s bonus this month has doubled, and he is inviting the entire department to dinner tonight.
Lin You seldom participated in department activities after get off work and originally planned to find an excuse to shirk her duties, but the shrewd Manager Hu approached her in advance.
"Xiao Lin, you've been in the company for two years, and you haven't attended a department party. Do you know what your colleagues say behind your back? They say you have a problem with me, that I'm harsh towards my subordinates, that I'm a poor leader..."
Before he could say more accusations, Lin You stated, “Manager Hu, I’ll go there tonight!”
Manager Hu patted her shoulder with satisfaction, then left with a smile on his face.
For convenience, the dinner was set at a hot pot restaurant very close to the company, just a ten-minute walk away.
After get off work, colleagues gathered in groups of three or five to walk together. Lin You just went to the bathroom and came back, so she was the only one left in the office.
She has never been sociable, so she was forgotten. She did not blame her colleagues. Since she chose to be alone, she had become accustomed to such loneliness.
However, her self-satisfaction made her look pitiful in the eyes of others.
At the company gate, several female employees who were waiting for an online taxi chatted about gossip, and one of them mentioned Lin You.
"Really? I was standing here the whole time and saw her walking down the back street looking pathetic by herself."
"Ah, didn't they invite her to the logistics department dinner?"
"Lin You has always been very self-important and never puts others in his eyes. Isn't it normal for him to be ostracized by his colleagues in the department?"
"That's right. She graduated from a prestigious university and is pretty. She should just serve her boss well. Who would bother with an ordinary colleague?"
"Serve the leader well... Who is it? There is a story behind this..."
He Xuan followed behind Shi Jingyuan and just as he walked to the company gate, he heard these people gossiping about Lin You.
He cleared his throat and deliberately said loudly: "Boss Shi, the car is ready!"
When the women heard the words "Mr. Shi", they were frightened and lowered their heads in embarrassment.
If your boss hears you gossiping, you'll be doomed!
Shi Jingyuan glared at He Xuan who was deliberately doing something bad, and then slowly walked up to several female employees.
"It seems that our work at KSH Group is very leisurely, so you have so much free time to pay attention to the private lives of your colleagues?"
He paused, and said to He Xuan: "Notify the Human Resources Department that their assessment indicators will be doubled next month!"
