When You Tong returned to Taipei, it was already past three in the afternoon. Due to time constraints, she did not return to the Finance Department after arriving at the company. Instead, she went directly to the Public Relations Department to receive daily etiquette training.
As the day of the celebration approaches, the training of the Public Relations Department becomes more and more strict. Being late and leaving early is absolutely not allowed. A few days ago, a girl from the Human Resources Department was two minutes late and was criticized on the spot.
Tears, so You Tong didn’t dare to waste a minute. After getting out of the elevator, he trotted all the way to the training room.
The head of the public relations department hasn't come yet. Huhu, luckily, he's not late.
"Secretary You!" Someone behind her suddenly tapped her on the shoulder, which startled her. She turned around and saw that it was Hu Die.
"Uh, Cashier Hu." You Tong patted his chest to calm his heartbeat.
Hu Die narrowed her beautiful eyes and looked at her suspiciously, "What bad thing have you done? Why are you so guilty?!"
"How can I not have it?" You Tong pretended to be calm.
"You asked for leave this morning, where did you go?!" Hu Die asked with half suspicion and half gossip.
"I haven't gone anywhere, I just don't feel well," You Tong said evasively.
Hu Die continued to squint, looking at You Tong's two panda eyes and couldn't help frowning, "Why do I think you are overly indulgent?!"
You Tong's eyes widened, this Hu Die was so speechless that he would never stop trying!
Fortunately, the head of the public relations department came at this time, and everyone quickly lined up and stood up
The head of the public relations department motioned to the assistant next to him to hand over the roll call, and then began to call the names.
"Chen Lan, Advertising Department"
"arrive!"
"Finance Department Chu Kuo"
"arrive"
"Department of Finance Hu Die"
"arrive!"
"Finance Department You Tong"
"arrive!"
After the routine roll call, the head of the public relations department began to announce today's arrangements, "There are no training courses today. We have arranged for personnel from the clothing company to tailor clothes for everyone. During the celebration, everyone must dress uniformly. You must dress up later."
Your shoulders should be straight and your waist should be straight, do you understand?!"
"Understood!" Everyone said in unison, but You Tong was a little embarrassed.
Oops, I'm going to have my measurements taken later. Will I be asked to take off my clothes? There are still traces of Rong Yuchi on her body. What should I do?!
Not long after, people from the garment company arrived. There were four people in the group, two men and two women.
According to gender, Rong's staff also lined up separately and went to different conference rooms to wait.
A small area was specially separated by a screen in the conference room to ensure privacy. Just like a physical examination in a hospital, the staff went in one by one to take measurements.
You Tong was at the very back of the queue. I heard that the female colleague who had taken the test in front said that she needed to take off her clothes, because the custom-made clothes for everyone by Rong this time were not ordinary business attire, but mid-length dresses, which were very fashion-conscious.
curvilinear
You Tong was secretly confused, so he quickly asked for leave and went to the bathroom. He wet the handkerchief with cold water, then put it on the area under the neck and above the chest, and applied a cold compress for a while. As expected, those ambiguous marks faded a lot.
After leaving the bathroom, You Tong turned left as a habit, but after walking for more than ten meters, she suddenly realized that something was wrong. The floor design of the public relations department was different from that of the finance department. She should have turned right. Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks.
Turn around and walk back
As she passed the corner, she suddenly heard a faint conversation in the corner. The voice was very low, but very familiar. It seemed to be Rong Chen. He was telling the head of the public relations department, "What are the names of the ladies of the Rong family?"
Have you written them all down? When the time comes, read them out in order, don’t make any mistakes.”
"Okay, okay, please don't worry
You Tong blinked and suddenly realized that everyone in the Rong family must be present during the celebration, even the ladies who do not work in the company must come.
Rong Guosheng had four sons and five grandsons. Rong Chen and Rong Ling were born to the first wife, Rong Yuchi was born to the second wife, Rong Lei and Rong Jin were born to the third wife and fourth wife respectively. In addition, the third wife
and the fourth wife each have a daughter.
In other words, Rong Yuchi is the most special being in the Rong family, and he is the loneliest only son.
"Uh, why is there one person missing?!" The head of the public relations department was very confused.
Rong Chen paused and said with difficulty, "The second lady will not be here."
You Tong frowned again subconsciously
◎◎◎
That night, when Rong Yuchi returned to the apartment, it was already dark. When he opened the door, the room was dark without a trace of light.
He frowned unconsciously
"You Tong?!"
No one answered, everything was silent
He turned on the light with a "pop" sound, changed his shoes and looked around the house, but didn't find even a shadow.
But the house has obviously been tidied up, everything is clean and meticulous, it feels like a home, but because there is no one, it is still so cold, the coldness and loneliness he is most familiar with.
Turning his head to look at the kitchen, there were four dishes on the dining table, with plates on them, a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and a note next to them.
He picked it up and looked at it. There were two lines of clear and elegant words on it. There was no title or signature.
——I have already prepared the food. You can put it in the microwave before eating.
——Don’t eat it cold, it will hurt your stomach
The first sentence is very formulaic, but the latter sentence is inexplicably...warm?!
When I opened the plate, I saw that the four dishes were beautifully cooked, and the lotus root slices were even arranged in a flower shape.
The stern expression unconsciously became a little softer, but...did he let her go?!
He deliberately didn't work overtime and wanted to come back early to have dinner with her, but this woman actually left without permission!
He was so angry that he took out his mobile phone and dialed her number directly. The answer was a mechanical voice, "I'm sorry, the number you dialed has been turned off..."
"Damn it!" He cursed in a low voice and threw the phone on the table. There was nowhere to vent his inner depression.
