Xu Xiaowei felt as if she had entered a wolf's den.
When she heard Mr. Fred from the marketing department on the stage talking about the company's owner's family's fortune a hundred years ago, she looked at the colleagues next to her who were usually very kind to her with a strange look in their eyes.
Do they all know the history of their boss’s family?
"Long live the O'Brien family!"
There is no doubt that they know and are proud of the O'Brien family.
High and excited cheers rang out in the ballroom of the Conrad Hotel in Dublin city centre.
The sound was deafening.
The air was thick with the smell of smoke and whiskey.
Thinking that the O'Brien family, the founder of the company, chose to take a dark path to make a fortune due to the family's decline a hundred years ago, Xu Xiaowei couldn't help but stiffen.
She reached for the goblet on the table and drank a few sips of the extremely low-purity fruit wine to calm down.
Oh my God, the O'Brien family actually started out by illegally smuggling tobacco, alcohol, arms, and betting on horse racing. In the end, it became the most famous mafia organization in Irish history and made all local Irish people respect and fear it.
Xu Xiaowei looked at Mo Lin, who also graduated this year and joined the company, and leaned over.
She is a native of Ireland and should know better.
Xu Xiaowei lowered her voice: "Mo Lin, let me ask you something."
"explain."
Maureen shook her head to the music playing in the banquet hall and pointed her ears in the direction of Xu Xiaowei.
Xu Xiaowei asked: "Mr. Fred just talked about the history of the O'Brien family. Is that history true?"
"Of course it's true, the O'Brien family is very famous and their family's history is part of our Irish history and all of us in Ireland know it, so there are also some fanatics of their family coming into the company."
Maureen glanced at the group of people who were shouting "Long live the O'Brien family" just now.
"Now, aren't they just fans of the O'Brien family."
Xu Xiaowei continued to ask: "Um...the home of our big boss, Mr. O'Brien. Just now, Mr. Fred said that the O'Brien family used to be the mafia, but what about now?"
Maureen stopped shaking her head, turned to Xu Xiaowei, raised her wine glass in front of their faces, and lowered her voice: "Don't talk about this kind of thing in public."
"But just now Mr. Fred..."
"He was drunk, and everyone was in high spirits. Today is also the anniversary of the founding of the first company of the O'Brien family. No one will pursue it, but you should never mention it in the company. This matter we It’s all tacit.”
Maureen looked at Xu Xiaowei who was a little panicked, and comforted her,
"Weiwei, don't worry. The company is a company, and it is separate from what is done behind the scenes at the O'Brien family. We are all junior employees of the company. Even if there is a fire up there, it won't be for us little guys."
"Really?"
Xu Xiaowei began to regret that she had only focused on her studies in the past few years while studying in Ireland and had not learned about the history of Ireland or the story behind O'Brien Enterprises. Otherwise, she would not have submitted her resume to this company after graduation.
When I first saw that the company’s official website was so formal and beautiful, online forums and social platforms were all exaggerating that O’Brien Group’s employee benefits were the best among local companies. O’Brien had also won the local outstanding enterprise award for several consecutive years. People are talking about the O'Brien family.
But now she can't leave even if she wants to. Her student visa is about to expire and she is waiting for the work visa issued by her company. If she resigns rashly now, she may not be able to find a big company that can issue her a visa for a while. , she had to obediently buy a ticket to return home.
She was an orphan, and the orphanage was not her home. She had to find a strange city to start over when she returned to China. At least she had settled in Ireland for six years, so she was familiar with it.
Even though she graduated from Trinity College, Ireland's top university, what kind of job can a sociology major return to China to find?
Instead of just finding a salary of a few thousand yuan and finally contributing all the salary to the landlord, it is better to stay in Ireland and earn euros.
After all, the same salary is several thousand yuan, and euros are much more fragrant.
Maureen hugged Xu Xiaowei tightly and said:
"Don't worry, Weiwei, let me tell you, we have just graduated. If you are afraid, you should persist for a year or two. After you have work experience, are you afraid of running away and not finding a job?"
Toilet.
Xu Xiaowei turned on the faucet, looked at herself in the mirror, and arranged the wavy hair on her chest.
She encouraged herself,
"Xu Xiaowei, you can do it. As Maureen said, one year will pass quickly. Just spend one or two years peacefully and get some experience before leaving."
After walking out of the bathroom and looking at the two identical corridors on the left and right, Xu Xiaowei was suddenly confused. She forgot which way she came from.
I just saw a long queue for the restroom outside the banquet hall, so I ran up to the first floor and walked around until I found this restroom.
"Why do the two corridors look so similar?"
Just as Xu Xiaowei was scratching her head and feeling at a loss, a waiter appeared at the corner ahead. She quickly chased after him: "Sir?"
The waiter turned around and disappeared again.
Xu Xiaowei turned around where the waiter disappeared, and unexpectedly encountered two burly men in black guarding the door of an executive suite. The waiter was handing the ice bucket to the man who opened the door from inside.
not good!
Her sixth sense told her that she had to leave quickly.
Just as Xu Xiaowei was about to run away, the man who took the ice bucket at the door waved to her, "Chinese girl! Come here!"
call her? !
It seems so, she is the only woman in the entire corridor.
Xu Xiaowei met the man's face.
It's Ethan McCarthy, the assistant next to the big boss Sean.
Some time ago, when she was working overtime and waiting for the bus, she encountered a gypsy tramp trying to steal her money. Mr. McCarthy suddenly appeared to help her out.
"Xu Xiaowei?" Ethan called Xu Xiaowei's name uncertainly.
Xu Xiaowei bit her lower lip, unable to hide.
She walked over slowly, nodded to him and said hello: "Mr. McCarthy."
Ethan asked the waiter to leave, and then said to Xu Xiaowei: "Miss Xu, please help me."
"Mr. McCarthy, just call me Weiwei. All my colleagues around me call me that."
Xu Xiaowei was curious about what the favor was.
Ethan said bluntly: "Just go in and be a waiter for a while, pouring wine for Mr. Sean and the guests, so as to relax the atmosphere."
big boss? No wonder at the anniversary party just now, only the second boss, Mr. Owen, came on stage to deliver a speech. It turned out that the big boss was here to meet guests.
At the same time, Xu Xiaowei was also curious as to why she didn't ask the waiter just now to pour the wine.
When Ethan pushed her into the living room of the executive suite, he saw about ten tall Irishmen in black suits standing inside.
Xu Xiaowei froze in her steps, unwilling to go any further.
What are all these people doing here? Are you ready to fight?
Oh my god, she couldn't have sneaked into a gang fight, right?
