After Qu Xiaoxiao thought about it all night at home, she felt more and more aggrieved, so Yao Bin called her all day long, but she didn't answer the phone.
Finally, faced with the bombardment of calls from Yao Bin, he really didn't tire of it. He picked up the phone and answered the call, and said impatiently:
"Hey, what are you doing? Beat me over and over again!"
As a licking dog, Yao Bin naturally didn't care about his sweetheart's attitude towards him. He also knew that she was still angry with him and spoke a little cautiously:
"Xiao Xiao, I want to apologize to you for what happened yesterday. It was indeed my mistake that embarrassed you!"
"Give me another chance. I plan to sign up for a boxing class recently. Next time I meet Qu Lianjie, I will definitely KO him!"
Qu Xiaoxiao didn't want to mention this matter at first, but when she heard that he brought it up on his own initiative, she said angrily:
"Don't mention what happened yesterday. Yao Bin, I'm really convinced. You said you don't have the ability. What's wrong with you? That bastard Qu Lianjie forced me to apologize to him yesterday. Do you know how embarrassed I am? ?"
Yao Bin also knew that he was in the wrong, so he did not explain himself and said with a smile:
"Xiao Xiao, I was really wrong. Give me a chance to apologize. Can I treat you to dinner? Can you please stop ignoring me~"
After hearing what Yao Bin said, Qu Xiaoxiao felt a little relieved, and decided to forgive him temporarily. After all, she wanted to help herself vent her anger. Although it didn't work out in the end due to ability issues, the starting point was still good.
Although she had decided to forgive Yao Bin, Qu Xiaoxiao still didn't want to go out to eat. She felt that since what happened yesterday, she now has a shadow in her heart about going out to eat.
So he refused directly:
"Let's talk in two days. I don't want to leave the house these days!"
Yao Bin felt relieved when he heard Qu Xiaoxiao's tone that he was no longer angry. There was nothing he could do about her not wanting to leave the house. Then the two chatted for a few more words before hanging up the phone.
Qu Xiaoxiao also walked out of the bedroom and went to the living room downstairs. Seeing her mother watching TV, she also sat there.
As a mother, Xu Li knew her daughter's character better, so she was very curious about her not going out at home today:
"Xiao Xiao, why didn't you hang out with Yao Bin and the others?"
Qu Xiaoxiao sat cross-legged on the sofa and answered casually while watching TV:
"I don't want to spend more time with you at home. What's the fun with them? They have no sense of responsibility at all. They just know how to hide when something happens!"
When Xu Li heard what her daughter said, she knew something must have happened, but she didn't take it to heart. It was normal for children to quarrel.
He turned to chat with his daughter and said seriously:
"Xiao Xiao, you have to give your mother some credit. Now since that Qu Lianjie made some money from catering, your father's overall attitude towards him has changed!"
"Now, according to what I heard, your father always praises his precious son when he meets everyone. If things continue like this, it will definitely be the biggest obstacle for you to take over the company in the future!"
"And it's not like you don't know that your grandmother's stubborn old lady is very patriarchal and has never approved of us and my mother. Your father is a filial son, so we are really in danger!"
Qu Xiaoxiao now felt disgusted when she heard the name Qu Lianjie, and said with hatred in her tone:
"Don't worry, our family business was built by you and my dad, so it should be mine. That Qu Lianjie is nothing, he is just a villain. After I graduate and return to China, Take care of him in minutes!"
…
Naturally, Qu Lianjie didn't know that the mother and daughter were evaluating him. After inspecting the branch, he went to the main store on Nanjing East Road.
After walking into the main store, he happened to catch up with the employees for lunch. Qu Lianjie felt a little hungry when he saw the staff meals with both meat and vegetables.
Qu Lianjie waved his hand to the employees who wanted to greet him, indicating that they should eat and leave him alone. Then he filled a bowl of rice and sat down opposite Zhao Mei, the manager of the main store.
Zhao Mei was concentrating on reading the account book. She didn't realize it until Qu Lianjie sat down and quickly said hello respectfully:
"Mr. Qu, when did you come here? Why didn't you say anything when you came? How about I ask the kitchen to add two more dishes?"
Qu Lianjie put a piece of meat into the bowl, refused with a smile:
"This dish is very good. Come and eat quickly. Don't work while eating in the future. This will affect your appetite!"
"I know, Mr. Qu~" Zhao Mei closed the account book and put it aside, then picked up her chopsticks to eat.
Qu Lianjie didn't eat much because he drank yesterday, and he really felt a little hungry. He took a big mouthful of rice and asked:
“Can our daily employee meals meet this standard?”
When Zhao Mei heard the boss's question, she quickly put down her chopsticks and replied:
"Yes, according to the standards you set before, every employee meal must include a meat dish. Today it is braised pork, and tomorrow we will order Coca-Cola chicken wings!"
"Don't be nervous, let's chat while eating~" Qu Lianjie said to Zhao Mei with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Mei picked up the chopsticks again and said while eating:
"Mr. Qu, have you been to the branch? How is the attendance at Wu Yue's place?"
"I just came back from there, and the overall seating situation is pretty good. As soon as we got to the end of the meal, the table was already 70% to 80% full!"
The two were chatting while eating. In a short while, because braised pork is better for rice, Qu Lianjie had already finished the bowl of rice and got up to add more rice.
No one else moved. At this time, a very discerning waiter who looked to be only eighteen or nineteen years old stood up immediately and took the job from Qu Lianjie's hand. He said respectfully:
"Mr. Qu, please sit down and I'll help you get some food~"
"What's this young man's name? He looks a little unfamiliar!" After Qu Lianjie gave him his job, he sat back down and asked directly to the store manager Zhao Mei.
Zhao Mei first turned to look at the young man who went to add food, then turned back and replied with a smile:
"His name is Cheng Lei. He is a newcomer who just came to work a few days ago. Although he is not old, he has a lot of work experience. He has already started working when he was fifteen or sixteen years old. Because he has been exposed to society earlier, he is more capable of getting into trouble. !”
"Mr. Qu~" Cheng Lei had already served the rice at this time, came over and placed it respectfully in front of Qu Lianjie.
Qu Lianjie nodded towards him, then made a temporary decision in his heart and said to Zhao Mei:
"This young man is pretty good. I remember we seem to be short of a foreman, right? You can give him a try!"
When Zhao Mei heard that her boss had decided, she naturally had no objection:
"Okay, Mr. Qu, go arrange this matter after dinner!"
After Qu Lianjie and Zhao Mei finished eating and left, some people directly gathered around Cheng Lei, and some of them were congratulating:
"Leizi, you want to be prosperous, but don't forget your brothers!"
Some people also express jealousy in their words:
"I didn't expect that you, a newcomer who has only been here for a few days, would become the foreman. This is such a rapid rise to the top!"
Cheng Lei also didn't expect that his sudden inspiration would lead him directly to an "official career". He said very humbly to the colleague who was obviously making fun of him:
"Brother Chen, please don't make fun of me. This is just a coincidence. I didn't expect that Qu would just let me be the foreman!"
