After hanging up Hu Yu's phone, Guan Xi called Yu Ben.
"Mr. Yu." She said in a good mood, "Is the report over? I happen to be going to the project. Can I send you there?"
After a while, Yu Ben opened the car door and got into the passenger seat. He looked relaxed.
Shi Yuan affirmed the Changlefang project's timely response, and the KPIs that were lowered due to the shutdown this quarter were saved. Similarly, the number of layoffs in the project has also been reduced.
Yu Ben lowered his head and sent an email to several managers to reduce the layoff list. After sending the email, he heard Guan Xi say casually: "From today on, I will work on the project."
Yu Ben suddenly remembered something and stopped his hand.
He glanced at Guan Xi subconsciously, and Guan Xi was also looking at him. When their eyes met, Guan Xi smiled at Yu Ben, turned his head and looked forward.
Her meaning was clear.
Yu Ben felt uncomfortable all over from being stabbed, but his expression remained calm and he quickly sent a message to his assistant:
"Arrange an office for Guan Xi, now."
…
The project office was immediately in a panic, moving tables and chairs, and was in chaos.
Chen Jiaxian cleaned the office and brought some green plants to put on the shelves. When arranging for someone to give the new office permission to connect to the intranet, the other party asked: "Name?"
Chen Jiaxian said: "Guan Xi."
She gestured: "Xi, Rixi, Chaolu waits for Rixi."
Chen Jiaxian watched the man operate and pursed her lips.
"It's a girl." She reminded, "You chose the wrong avatar."
The man was startled and laughed: "Sorry, I thought all the engineering workers were men."
Chen Jiaxian thought of the strong Zhou Ke and Guan Xi who directly made his appeal. She was quiet for a while, tightened her trousers with her hands, and then retorted word by word: "Look at what you said, aren't there a lot of female colleagues outside?"
The man clapped his hands and glanced at Chen Jiaxian unscrupulously: "I'm just kidding, miss. I know you're awesome, okay."
Anger welled up in Chen Jiaxian's chest, but the shame that caused the conflict instantly enveloped her whole body. She couldn't say a word, and her face turned red instantly.
She had been taught to be submissive since she was a child, and this submissiveness had become a shell of her.
It is really difficult to break this shell nowadays.
At 12:30 noon, Chen Jiaxian returned to her workstation holding her computer.
The Changlefang project has its own staff canteen, where lunch only costs 6 yuan and dinner is free.
But Chen Jiaxian still thinks it is expensive.
She gave all the cash she had to her mother for medical treatment. She really needed money, so she chose not to eat at noon and eat dinner in the cafeteria every day.
Zhou Ke walked to the cafeteria chatting and laughing with several colleagues.
Zhou Ke didn't take another look at Chen Jiaxian, nor did he call her to join him.
Yes, she and Zhou are not friends.
Except for Zhou Ke who kindly helped cover her swollen face that day, they had never met again.
Chen Jiaxian lowered her eyes. There is no free friendship in the adult world, and project secretary is the lowest of all positions. She entered this world, but she didn't seem to have entered it.
She was sitting at her workstation watching an online excel course.
The office door opened and Pan Qiaomu walked out.
Chen Jiaxian stood up and nodded: "Mr. Pan."
Pan Qiaomu was in a bad mood.
Yu Ben suddenly assigned a work station to Guan Xi, which was an obvious change in attitude. Zhuoxiu Group's organizational structure was adjusted, Jun Ziyi forced Hu Yu away, and the general office annexed the human resources department. Pan Qiaomu was bound to seize this opportunity to take a step forward, but now Guan Xi came out.
He looked cold, said "hmm" casually, and walked past Chen Jiaxian with long strides.
The wind he passed by slightly lifted the ends of Chen Jiaxian's hair, but he didn't even look at her.
Chen Jiaxian sat down and continued to watch online classes.
A few seconds later, someone knocked on the table.
Chen Jiaxian raised her head and met Pan Qiaomu's face.
His amber eyes reflected the cold incandescence. A few strands of black hair hang down. Although his face is serious, the red mole at the end of his eye still has a somewhat amorous flavor. Chen Jiaxian leaned back subconsciously, frowning slightly, and there was a resistance in her heart.
Pan Qiaomu looked at Chen Jiaxian's computer screen: "This is not the training Zhuoxiu arranged for you." He narrated.
Chen Jiaxian said: "Yes, Mr. Pan. I bought the online course myself."
Pan Qiaomu glanced at her, then at her name tag, and then looked at her deeply.
"You are Chen Jiaxian." Pan Qiaomu said.
Chen Jiaxian is a gray, busy shadow on the project. People just call her "Hey" and no one remembers a project secretary's name.
"Yes." Chen Jiaxian felt uncomfortable all over. She blushed because of nervousness and resistance.
Pan Qiaomu said "Yes": "Your personnel relations are in my name, you know that, right? The online classes will be reimbursed from my side."
Chen Jiaxian's first reaction was to subconsciously refuse.
She has become accustomed to having nothing, and what she has is destined to be deprived.
Chen Jiaxian's second reaction was to happily accept it.
Because she is really short of money.
After such a delay, she didn't say anything. Pan Qiaomu turned around and left, apparently not caring about her answer.
Chen Jiaxian's heart beat.
In the afternoon, Pan Qiaomu's assistant brought the signed reimbursement form to Chen Jiaxian. Chen Jiaxian handed it to the financial manager Li Hong anxiously. Li Hong glanced at the form and then at her.
"Oh, you are Chen Jiaxian."
After saying this, Li Hong gave her a complicated look: "The money will be paid tomorrow."
"Really?" Chen Jiaxian's voice couldn't hide the excitement.
Li Hong looked at her again and put away the list.
Chen Jiaxian walked briskly to the tea room to fetch water, and heard several people exchanging news in low voices.
“The program’s layoff list has shrunk.”
Chen Jiaxian stopped washing the cup and turned to look at those people.
"Is there such a good thing? You don't know whether it's true or not, right?" The speaker was a colleague from the design department, who was worried about layoffs these days.
"Really." The man's voice was even softer, and Chen Jiaxian had to work hard to hear it clearly. "Several managers have received personnel confirmation emails. Do you know, it's Guan Xi..."
"The tone from above really changes at the drop of a hat."
"Don't talk nonsense." Someone immediately poked him, "If the above does not change, there will be no chance for our project to perform." The man lowered his voice, "After Guan Xi fired off the bomb at the meeting last time, I also went to inquire about it. , there are really more than ten or twenty property owners of an old house in Xiguan. If it can be demolished, the performance will not be good, Mr. Yu will be taken advantage of, and we will lose our jobs. "
"...The number of layoffs in Changlefang can be reduced, thanks to Guan Xi. I heard that Mr. Shi is very satisfied. Our quarterly KPI will definitely increase, and Brother Ben will have room to negotiate with personnel."
"She's pretty good. I hope it's not a one-year rotation."
"What are you thinking about?" Someone laughed, "How can we worship such a big Buddha in a small temple? But her office has been reserved. Anyway, it's Brother Ben's attitude... everyone should look at her a little bit."
"If I can avoid this round of layoffs, I'm willing to give her up." The voice was delighted.
Chen Jiaxian washed the cup, took the coffee and left the tea room.
Has the layoff list been reduced? What great news.
Her steps were brisk, and the corners of her lips were raised.
