absent-minded

Qi Yu failed to call Wu Yinan back after all.

After knowing each other for so many years, he knew that what she decided would never change no matter what, so if she said she wouldn't go to Hong Kong, she really wouldn't go.

She always abides by her principles and remains unchanged in everything she does, so she gave up her spot to Guo Xiao.

"Don't get me wrong, I have no other intention. I just don't want to embarrass the other company and cause unnecessary misunderstandings!" She said through the door panel.

He stood outside the door and heard her calm voice, but he still couldn't feel relieved.

He wanted to go in and talk to her face to face, but the door was locked by her and she didn't want to talk to him.

After working together for such a long time, this was not the first time that they had disagreements, but this time, for some unknown reason, he felt uneasy like never before.

"Senior Qi, I'm ready and we're ready to go!" Guo Xiao came back after putting on her makeup and dragged his arm out.

He looked at his watch and realized he had to go to the airport immediately, otherwise he would be too late.

He raised his head and looked at the closed door of her office again. His lips moved, but he stopped talking.

What else could he say to her? She obviously didn't want to hear an apology, and she even said sorry before him.

She was angry, but she was not willful. She said she would not go to Hong Kong just because she did not want to cause trouble to the other company because of one more person.

Her attitude is very clear and she distinguishes between public and private affairs!

And this made him even more embarrassed.

He knew that it would not be good to take Guo Xiao to Hong Kong, so it would be better not to take her with him, but he had just agreed and could not go back on his word.

"Senior Qi, time is running out!" Guo Xiao urged.

"...Okay, let's go." He suppressed the entanglement in his heart and turned around to set off.

"Eh? Classmate Wu, won't you come with us?"

"Well, the places for air tickets and hotels are limited. If you go, she won't go." He said helplessly.

"Ah? Isn't this bad?" Guo Xiao pretended to feel guilty, but she was actually very happy in her heart, "Actually, I can pay for the air tickets myself. As for the hotel... can I just squeeze in a room with Senior Qi?"

Senior Qi, you should take me in, right? You won't let me live on the street, right?"

Behind the office door, Wu Yinan smiled wryly to herself.

She is really nosy! What kind of air tickets and hotels should I ask for? Wouldn’t it be better for the two of them to sleep in the same room?

The trip to Hong Kong went very smoothly because the two parties had reached an agreement before and she had read the specific contract terms one by one, so he signed it without any doubts.

After the signing, the general manager of the other company arranged another meal. He politely socialized for a while and then left in a hurry.

Originally, everyone said that he was going to sing in a KTV. If it were the past, he would definitely go and raise the atmosphere to the highest level, but this time he was not interested.

In fact, from the moment he got on the plane, he began to be absent-minded. He was thinking about going back even before he arrived in Hong Kong.

After arriving in Hong Kong, he just wanted to sign the contract as soon as possible. As for other things to eat, drink and have fun, he was not in the mood. Even... when Guo Xiao rang the doorbell of his room while wearing a sexy nightdress last night, he didn't feel the slightest joy.

The return flight took off four hours later, but he checked out of the hotel early.

Because of his indifference last night, Guo Xiao went shopping alone as if to vent his anger. He also had a sudden idea to go shopping in a duty-free shop.

Hong Kong is a shopping paradise, he used to think so, but this time when he was in all kinds of shops, he suddenly felt a little confused about where to start.

What should I buy her?

Cosmetics? No, not suitable, she doesn’t wear makeup at all.

Clothes? No, she always only wears business suits.

Jewelry? No, she never wears those things.

Electronic products? Or no, she will definitely say that he is wasting money again.

After shopping around a lot, he didn't even buy a gift that he liked.

Suddenly he realized how little he knew about her. After knowing her for so many years, he didn't even know what she liked.

His heart suddenly felt inexplicably guilty.

Full of disappointment and empty-handed, he left the duty-free shop dejectedly.

But he couldn't just go back like this. He still wanted to buy something for her, so he went to a flower shop and ordered a bouquet of heather.

He doesn't understand flowers. Although he often sends flowers to his female companions, they are all ordered by his secretary.

So when he walked into the flower shop, he didn't know what to buy. The reason why he bought Heather was because her name also had the word "nan" in it.

The lady at the flower shop told him that the flower language of heather means majesty and solemnity.

"Okay, let's take this." He thought it suited her quite well.

He chose a bouquet of lavender flowers for her, and the florist lady said that lavender heather flowers meant appreciation.

Fortunately, he really admired her.

"Reserve it for me and have it delivered to this address tomorrow." Because Guo Xiao was on his way back, he had no choice but to let the flower shop deliver it. Otherwise, if Guo Xiao knew that the flowers were for someone else, she would definitely not give up.

"Okay sir, please pay the deposit first and choose the wrapping paper. We have high, medium and low-end products here, as well as imported ones..."

"I want the most expensive one... Oh, no, let me take a look first..." He suddenly remembered her principle of thrift and thrift, and quickly changed his mind.

"Why are you turning on the air conditioner? What time is it now?" Wu Yinan stepped into the conference room. The anger on her body was in sharp contrast with the cold air of the air conditioner.

Everyone at the conference table was shocked, but someone still stepped forward and protested, "Vice President, it's almost 40 degrees today!"

"So what? The company stipulates that the air conditioner can only be turned on from 11 o'clock to 15 o'clock every day!" Wu Yinan was not moved at all, her voice was as cold as minus 40 degrees.

"...It's 10:50 now, only ten minutes earlier."

"Not even for a minute!" She picked up the remote control and pressed the switch hard, causing the air-conditioning circulation in the room to stop abruptly.

Everyone's faces turned dark.

"Okay, let's start the meeting!"

"The business department's vehicle expenses last month exceeded plan by 10%, please explain!"

"Uh... Vice President, it's like this... last week when Xiao Liu and I were out negotiating, the car broke down halfway and had to be sent to the factory for repair. The excess is the repair fee."

"Repair cost? What was repaired? Wasn't the car just maintained half a month ago? Why is it broken again?"

"This... we don't know this either..."

"Who among you doesn't know? Your salesman drives the car, and you do the usual maintenance. Is it okay now that you just don't know?"

"..."

"Also, the General Affairs Department's application to replace the color copier has been rejected! Just use black and white copiers within the company!"

"In addition, everyone in the advertising department used the 3G audio-visual room three days ago. After using it, the projector malfunctioned. I asked someone to identify it and found that it was man-made damage! According to the company's regulations, you will personally compensate for this money. Every time

980 yuan per person, I will deduct it directly from your salary list at the end of the month!"

"..."

"By the way, because the company has a lot of contracts recently, all vacations this month are cancelled!" As the meeting came to an end, Wu Yinan dropped another bombshell.

"What? Cancel everything?" Everyone protested in unison.

"right!"

"What about sick leave? There are always exceptions, right?" Someone made a cunning little calculation.

"Yes! If you provide me with the death certificate, you don't have to come!" She exposed it unceremoniously.

After sorting out the documents on the table, Wu Yinan left the conference room first.

As soon as she left, there was an explosion in the conference room.

"Is she crazy?"

"No, it's a pervert!"

"Why doesn't the boss come back? I really can't stand it!"

"It's no use coming back, she doesn't even take the boss seriously!"

"That's why I say she's a pervert! She can just ignore a handsome guy like the boss. It's so weird! Is she gay?"

"It's possible! I heard that her nickname in school was Wu Yi Nan!"

"No man? What do you mean? Does it mean no man loves her?"

"Of course! Even I, a woman, can't stand her, let alone a man?"

"Ahem... I guess she is still a virgin!"

"Ah? No way? She is almost thirty years old!"

"Twenty-seven or twenty-eight, it makes no difference! Look at her dress, which man can eat her?"

"The appearance is secondary, the main thing is her personality! She is cold, arrogant, awkward, stingy, and troublesome... Only a man who is blind would like her!"

"She must be the last old maid of this century!"

At the door of the conference room, Wu Yinan came back again and again, because she had just accidentally taken away the remote control of the air conditioner in the conference room. She wanted to return it, but she accidentally heard everyone talking about her.

Old naughty girl?

Ha...she even gave birth to a son!

But, so what?

That's just her secret.

If it hadn't been for that derailed night ten years ago, she might really still be an old virgin now.

No one would like a woman like her, least of all him.
