Chapter 50: The Tiger Falls into Pingyang, Cheated by Something

  Burn one's bridges after crossing the river.

  Chu Jing thought to himself, "These old slippery guys are not something I can deal with. With just a few words, they cleared themselves of all connections and then told him in a sympathetic tone that it was all for his own good."

  Accept the arrangement given by the organization and do your own job well.

  Bai Jiming looked at Chu Jingyan and said: "Don't disappoint the trust that the organization has placed in you, Jingyan. The burden on your shoulders is very heavy."

  "Yes, yes, it's too heavy, so heavy that I'm almost out of breath." Chu Jingyan decided to make a last-ditch effort. "Vice President, why don't you show some mercy and let me hide behind your back and catch my breath?"

  "Nonsense!" Bai Jiming slammed his hand on the table and said, "A man in his prime, so spineless, always feeling down and having no energy, what's the point of living like this? No wonder those colleagues feel a chill down their spines when you stare at them. Jingyan, be more optimistic, be more positive, don't always be so pessimistic."

  "Sorry, Vice President," Chu Jing said with a dry smile. "I've been watching too many tragic dramas lately and I'm getting a bit carried away."

  "This time I'll forgive you, but if you say something so depressing again, it'll directly affect your year-end bonus." Bai Jiming waved his hand and said, "Take these annoying documents away, go back and take a good look, then go report."

  The overall situation has been decided, Chu Jing spoke clearly and knew he had no way out.

  "Vice President, what if I make a mess there too?" Chu Jingyan said with a hardened heart, "I mean to say, if, really just if."

  Bai Jiming glanced at Chu Jingyan and said indifferently, "At worst, you can just earn back the lost money."

  "What if I can't earn it back?"

  "Sign the contract of selling oneself."

  Chu Jing spoke and suddenly inhaled a mouthful of cool air.

  Back in his own office, stroking every blade of grass and every tree here, a wave of despairing sorrow suddenly surged up in his heart.

  The secretary pushed open the door and walked in, slightly bowing to Chu Jingyan, then asked: "Director, is there anything else you need to take with you?"

  "You know too?" Chu Jingyan looked at his little secretary with a sad expression, this young girl who had just graduated last year and had only recently started serving as his secretary. Those tricks he had learned from TV to tease her, he hadn't even had the chance to use on this lovely little loli yet.

  Just as they were about to part ways, Chu Jingyan felt a strong reluctance to let go.

  "That's right." The little secretary replied, "We all know that Director, you are going to the newly established company of the group as the general manager, this is a great promotion."

  Children who have just entered society always think so naively and lovely.

  "Mei Yan, I'll miss you." Chu Jingyan waved his hand and said, "Leave everything here to you, oh, and take good care of these few pots of flowers and plants for me, I usually cherish them very much."

  The little secretary thought to herself: usually it's me who waters and fertilizes, I haven't seen you cherish them much.

  The fact is that, but the little secretary can't say it out loud. Although her young boss has a somewhat eccentric personality, at least he's not like those balding middle-aged men from her school days who are full of themselves and always trying to take advantage of others. Now that she thinks about it, after Chu Jingyan leaves, she'll have to face a lecherous old man every day.

  The little secretary also felt a bit sad in her heart.

  "Director, I will miss you too." The little secretary said reluctantly.

  Chu Jingyan's words were filled with emotion, and indeed he was still welcome here. After a tear of emotion rolled down the corner of his eye, Chu Jingyan said: "Mei Yan, I'm leaving, but you have to take care of yourself too. Of course, don't expect the next owner of this office to be as handsome and young as me, but you have to believe that the world is still a good place. Middle-aged men also have their own inner qualities, so when the time comes, don't slap someone who's being flirtatious with you, got it?"

  The little secretary nodded.

  "As the saying goes, 'to fight a guerrilla war', you can choose to call this person's wife and children, and ruin his reputation." Chu Jingyan suggested.

  “...........”

  "What are you still doing here?"

  Just as Chu Jingyan was making his farewell speech, Qi Qingrong pushed the door and walked in. Seeing that Chu Jingyan was still there, he frowned and said: "Tomorrow you will go to the new company for reporting, don't you want to go ahead of time to adapt to the environment?"

  "What are you doing here?" Chu Jingyan looked at Qi Qingrong with dissatisfaction.

  "Me?" Qi Qingrong said with a smile, "Let me reintroduce myself, this office will be mine from now on."

  "What right do you have?" Chu Jingyan asked.

  "You're done for." Qi Qingrong looked around the room with satisfaction, admiring the decor and lighting, and said with a smile, "After working to death on the construction site for several months, isn't it normal to get a slight promotion?"

  "So your meaning is that you will be the new director from now on?" The little secretary looked at Qi Qingrong, and her eyes suddenly burst out with an extremely dazzling color.

  I was worried that the next dorm head would be a sleazy old man, but now it seems that my worries were completely unnecessary. In terms of appearance, Qi Qingrong is even better than Chu Jingyan.

  "You're very clever." Qi Qingrong said to the little secretary, "It's been a waste of your time following him around all this while. Don't worry, Meiyan, later you'll know what it means to have a department head with both substance and appearance."

  "Do you still remember my name?" The little secretary became even more excited.

  Qī Qīngróng smiled but did not speak.

  Looking at this scene, Chu Jingyan only felt that he was deeply excluded, as if he had seen through the red dust and waved his hand: "Forget it, forget it, I'll go alone, don't see me off, I know you will definitely miss me."

  "Who says I'm done with you? There's a huge pile of things waiting for me to deal with." Qi Qingrong gave Chu Jingyan a cold glance.

  Little secretary Chu Jingyan bowed and said: "Director, slow down."

  Chu Jing said: "The king of Chu has no match in the world."

  A tiger fallen into a plain is bullied by dogs, but it's not that kind of cool when people leave and the tea gets cold. Chu Jing glared fiercely at Qi Qingrong with a vicious look in his eyes before striding out of the office.

  At this time, the back shadow must be handsome, showing its own pride and dissatisfaction with reality, and also bringing a sense of desolation, making people feel a sense of sadness in their hearts. So walking can't be too fast or too slow.

  "I'm really too handsome." Chu Jingyan was very satisfied with his own back view.

  "Hey, who's that? Why are there so many beautiful women's photos on your computer?" Qi Qingrong's voice came from afar.

  Chu Jingyan suddenly turned around and shouted loudly: "That's a built-in computer, it has nothing to do with me."

  "Is it?" Qi Qingrong smiled and nodded, "Alright, you can go now. These pictures are not bad, I'll appreciate them first."

  Zhu Jing spoke in his heart and sighed, Ah, my Jessica Abel.

  As he drove away from Dongfang International, Chu Jingyan's phone rang.

  "You've been gone for a month and it feels like you vanished into thin air, did you go to steal something?" Little Fat Lady's voice came from the other end of the phone.

  Chu Jingyan was furious: "Others can bully me, and even you, this silly and cute guy, dare to bully me?"

  "I'm going to save the Earth." Chu Jingyan said, "If there's something to say, there's a nuclear bomb in Antarctica that's about to be launched. Superman's underwear is broken and can't be touched. I have to go and destroy it immediately, otherwise half of the Earth will be devastated. Do you know how heavy the burden on my body is?"

  "Alright, alright, I give up. Little fatty's tone was slightly excited as she said, "We're about to officially debut soon, so we came to invite you, the busy person, to come and support us on our debut stage."

  "Debut stage?"

  "It's us performing on stage and you cheering below." Xiao Feipo explained.

  "What is cheering?" Chu Jing asked in confusion, "Do you want me to go up and hand you water and towels to wipe your sweat when you're halfway through?"

  "First hold up the cheering lights and then shout slogans." Little fatty explained patiently.

  "No way." Chu Jing's refusal was very straightforward, "I'm a man, after all. You want me to hold that thing and shout slogans? What am I supposed to shout, 'Tiffany, I love you, together for life'? Don't be ridiculous, I'll just send you wreaths later."

  The little fatty on the other end of the phone said in a inexplicable tone: "You're really ruthless and unscrupulous, aren't you?"

  "With this much free time, you might as well go find a man to alleviate your loneliness." Chu Jingyan said sarcastically.

  "You'd better spend your time finding a woman to cleanse that filthy soul of yours, rather than wasting it on mocking me." Little fatty retorted, "Chu Jingyan, if you keep going down this path, all you'll be able to do is gaze up at me living happily in heaven from the depths of hell."

  "Your mouth has been so poisonous lately?" Chu Jingyan said with a pure and sincere tone, "This is not right, as a girl, your family doesn't require you to show your teeth when smiling, but you should also be kind to others. How can you treat friends like this? I must criticize you properly, this is crucial for your future work and life."

  "Alright, I'll definitely come to your debut stage, I'm busy, gotta hang up."

  "Hello? Hello?"

  A busy tone came from the other end of the phone.

  "Why don't people nowadays know how to let others finish speaking?" Chu Jingyan angrily threw the phone aside and said indignantly, "It's really disrespectful and hurtful."

  The car drove back and forth on the street according to the navigation, and stopped steadily in front of a brand-new office building. Chu Jingyan got out of the car.

  The building was quite distinctive, with a semi-transparent design that allowed for excellent lighting, and some office workers inside could be seen clearly. Chu Jingyan stood at the entrance for a while before realizing that someone was standing beside him.

  Strictly speaking, he is just a child.

  "C&O International."

  The girl looked at the conspicuous letters on the building and read them out loud, then nodded her head in satisfaction. "Looks like I haven't found the wrong place."

  Then she saw Chu Jingyan beside her, and the two of them looked at each other. This young girl, who looked like she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, didn't seem to be shy at all.

  "Are you also here for an interview at this company?" The girl asked with wide eyes.

  Any girl with a pair of bright and clear glasses will not be ugly, the immature facial features can already vaguely see that she is a good-looking girl.

  This girl's mother must be a beauty, Chu Jingyan thought to herself.

  "Are you also here for an interview at this company?" The girl asked again.

  Chu Jing shook his head; "I'm not."

  "What brings you here?"

  "I'm here for an interview." Chu Jingyan said.

  The girl smiled and her eyes narrowed into crescent moons as she said, "Really? What a coincidence."

  P.S: Looking for recommendations, looking for collections.
