After hearing "beep beep beep..." a few times, Fred's magnetic voice came from the phone: "Hey... Xichen, how long have we been apart and you already miss me?"
When Xichen heard this, a touching smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said in a resigned tone: "Yes, we have only been apart for a while, and I already miss you."
However, even though she said this, her words gave people a strange feeling.
Of course, Fred could tell that her tone on the phone seemed wrong, so he quickly said seriously: "Okay, let's talk. Is there something you forgot to mention this morning?"
"It's like this. From today on, don't come over to eat with me at noon. When we were in the car at noon yesterday, we were all seen by employees in my company. When I came to the company this morning, I felt that every one of them was weird.
Weird, I have a bad feeling, they must have premeditated it. So, let’s not have lunch together in the past few days, do you think that’s okay?”
Xichen explained the whole story, fearing that Fred would be angry about it.
As expected, Fred seemed to be really unhappy after hearing this.
"What? I'm so shady? Can't I let the employees of your company know me?"
"Well……"
Xichen was at a loss for words, and then said in a very stupid way: "It's not because you are not visible to others, it's because your old lady is popular with others. I'm afraid that I'll frighten the few employees in our company, so I kindly ask you to make a big deal."
Mercy, let them go."
As soon as this remark came out, Fred was obviously very impressed.
When you are in a high position, you will inevitably like to be flattered by others. Fred is a saint, so he is no exception. What's more, he is just an ordinary person.
Hearing Xichen say this, he immediately felt much more relaxed.
While driving the car, he looked forward, thinking for a moment, and then replied: "Okay, you promise me, just for this week, after this week, I will eat with you every day."
"Deal." Xichen readily agreed immediately.
In a week's time, I'm afraid the acquisition will be almost completed. She will be leaving by then, and she will have nothing to fear.
"Is there anything else?"
Fred's tone suddenly became a little cheerful when he heard Xichen's words, and his mood suddenly improved a lot.
"No more. You can continue to concentrate on driving. I'll hang up."
Xichen said and hung up the phone.
Fred left holding the steering wheel in his hand, smiling helplessly while sitting in the car, and let out a sigh of endearment: "This girl..."
Things turned out just as Xichen expected. In the blink of an eye, it was time for lunch.
However, the strange thing is that none of the employees in the company seem to be hungry today. They are all sitting in the office, pretending to be working seriously.
Xichen noticed something was wrong, but still pretended not to know, sitting in the office and continuing her work of reading documents.
After all, she often forgets to eat when she starts working, so it really doesn't matter to her to eat later.
On the other hand, several employees from the Nocati Group who came to r.p.c planning to do asset appraisal work couldn't help but feel a little confused when they saw that no one had gone out to eat.
Then, one of them came to Lin Yi's desk and asked, "Ms. Lin, is it lunch break now?"
Lin Yi heard this, looked at his watch, and then suddenly said: "Oh, it turns out it's already so late, you can go have dinner now."
After hearing this, the three people who came from Noka Emperor didn't understand why the R.P.C planning employees didn't go to eat, but they were already starving.
Therefore, they didn't care, the three of them got up directly and walked towards the door.
At this time, some of the r.p.c planning staff couldn't bear it anymore.
An employee poked Mark with his elbow, and then gestured in the direction of Lin Yi with his eyes.
Seeing this, Mark stood up reluctantly, walked to Lin Yi's desk in a few steps, and asked: "Sister Lin Yi, it's lunch break time, why doesn't the boss go to eat?"
When Lin Yi heard this, she suddenly remembered that, by the way, Xichen was pregnant with a child now, so it was necessary to eat on time.
So, she said with a look of realization: "Look at me, I almost forgot."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and opened the door and entered Xichen's office.
The original intention of Mark and other employees was to let her come in to remind Xichen.
However, who would have known that the result shocked all the employees.
The door to the manager's office opened from the inside, and Xichen walked out with Lin Yi with a smile on his face.
When all the employees saw this, someone immediately smiled and said, "Boss, you are going out to eat."
"Yes," Xichen raised his eyebrows, and then without changing his face, he said something that shocked all the employees, "I am having dinner with Assistant Lin at noon today, do you want to come with me? But
I promised you, it’s a AA rule, I won’t treat you.”
"Well……"
For a moment, both Xichen and Lin Yi seemed to hear the sound of their jaws dropping to the floor in the office.
Lin Yi had a puzzled look on his face, while Xichen had a weird smile on his face.
After the two walked out of the office side by side, all the employees showed disappointed expressions: "Oh, God can't help us."
After finishing speaking, everyone walked out the door together.
After enduring it until now, they were actually starving.
At the same time, in the elevator, Lin Yi saw Xichen laughing inexplicably, so she couldn't help but ask: "Xichen, what have you been laughing at since just now?"
"Haha, it's nothing. Sister Lin Yi, we're here, let's go, let's have dinner together."
The two of them talked and walked out of the elevator together.
At the same time, on the other side, Fred, Chuck and Jack were dining in a private room in a Chinese restaurant near the Nocati Group office building.
Just listen to Fred and Chuck say: "Oh, by the way, Chuck, didn't you ask me to ask Xichen if he has any recommendations?"
"Yes," Chuck heard, put down the red wine he had just sipped, and asked, "What? There are already results?"
"Well," Fred nodded, and then said, "She said that there is a special assistant named Lin Yi in their company, who has very strong planning skills. He has also been a special assistant to the manager for many years and has very rich leadership skills and experience.
You might as well consider it."
"Lin Yi..."
Upon hearing this, Chuck repeated something in a low voice, then raised his head and said seriously: "Okay, I will let someone investigate her and then make a decision."
