Chapter 1092: Going on a Business Trip to the Canton Fair
After Section Chief Li finished speaking, she glanced around the office. Just as she was about to speak, Sister Hong said, "Section Chief, my mother-in-law's health has been relatively stable recently. Plus, it's the first snow of the year, so we're lucky. My sister-in-law just returned from visiting relatives in the northwest yesterday, so she can stay home for less than a month. I'm more familiar with her work than other colleagues, so I'll take over."
The section chief originally wanted to let the two young people, Wan Xiaohui or Wang Minmin, take over. Since Sister Hong said so, it would naturally be the best.
The reason why Sister Hong took over was that her sister-in-law came back to visit relatives and she was not so busy during this period. Also, she didn't want to have to start all over again when Chuxue came back. Wan Xiaohui and Wang Minmin often made mistakes in their work, and she didn't want to partner with these two people. She was afraid that she would have a heart attack early.
Chu Xue looked at Sister Hong with gratitude. After the section chief left, she leaned close to Sister Hong and whispered, "Thank you, Sister Hong. I'll bring you some specialties from Guangdong Province when I get back."
Sister Hong wasn't one to shy away: "That's great."
Seeing the two of them whispering to each other, Wan Xiaohui said sourly, "It's good to be capable. Good things really happen to you everywhere."
Chu Xue didn't indulge her: "You also know that it's good to have skills, why don't you work hard? Instead of being a Yin-Yang person, it would be more practical to improve your business ability."
Wan Xiaohui didn't expect Chu Xue to confront her directly. Her face flushed with anger, and she said, "Don't be so complacent. What kind of place is the Canton Fair? Even if you get the chance to go, do you know that you can do it?"
Upon hearing this, Section Chief Li walked out of the small office inside and asked, "Wan Xiaohui, what are you talking about? Are you dissatisfied with the decision of the factory leaders, or do you think you are more capable than Chuxue and more qualified to handle the translation work for this Canton Fair?"
Wan Xiaohui had never expected Section Chief Li to stand up for Chu Xue: "Section Chief, I, I didn't mean that. I just said it casually."
Section Chief Li's face was terribly gloomy. "How ignorant are you to say such a thing? If your words were to get out, wouldn't you be misunderstood as not caring about the good of the factory?"
This frightened Wan Xiaohui, and she waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "Chief, I'm not. I'm just a little jealous. I really didn't mean it that way."
If it weren't for her father's previous diligent work, someone like Wan Xiaohui who was not ambitious would have been kicked out of the department long ago. She was not ambitious herself and did not want others to be ambitious. She always said some sarcastic words and almost ruined the little bit of friendship her father left behind.
Wan Xiaohui wanted to say something else, but Section Chief Li raised his hand to stop her: "Whether you have it or not, this is an office. Don't bring your personal emotions into the office."
This was the first time that the section chief was ruthless to Wan Xiaohui in front of everyone in the office. Except for Wan Xiaohui who was unhappy, the others felt that the section chief had finally couldn't stand it anymore and finally took action to deal with her. They felt happy that they could finally have some peace of mind.
Knowing that she was going on a business trip, Chu Xue borrowed the office phone and called Xiao's father's workplace.
After the call came back: "Chuxue, why are you calling? Did something happen?"
Chu Xue could tell from the voice that he was running over: "Dad, don't worry, nothing happened. I just called to tell you that I'm going on a business trip to Guangdong Province in three days. I have work to hand over and discuss the next work with my colleagues on the business trip, so I don't have time to come home. Please tell them for me."
