Chapter 30: My First Day at Work...
The first thing Anmi did after realizing what had happened...
I went downstairs and bought a lottery ticket.
When Tang Cai returned and heard the news, she couldn't believe it at first.
He only hugged Anmi with surprise when he saw the text message on her phone.
"Honey, now that you're successful, don't forget your poor sister!"
"Absolutely!"
Anmi was still a little unsettled.
When I called my mom in the afternoon to tell her that I had finally found a job, she even shed tears.
After all, during the days when she couldn't find a job, she genuinely believed that she was a piece of trash.
Who would have thought that such a small piece of trash could one day ride on a big cruise ship!
An Mi pulled Tang Cai's hand up: "Let's go out for dinner tonight, and invite Qiu Qiu too, it's on me!"
The confirmed start date is Wednesday.
Anmi originally intended to give Tang Cai the two thousand yuan she earned from the convenience store to pay her rent, but Tang Cai refused. Instead, Anmi used the money to buy a few more formal outfits.
On Wednesday morning, Anmi, dressed in her new clothes, completed her onboarding procedures under the guidance of HR.
The HR lady gave her a detailed tour of the company and explained the relationships between the various departments.
"Some departments in the group have confidential work information. In order to avoid risks, each employee of Yan's only has the elevator QR code for their own floor and cannot go to other floors."
The young lady granted Anmi access to the elevator QR code for her floor, telling her to use it to go up and down the stairs from now on.
Anmi's department was on the 15th floor. After thanking the young lady, she took the elevator up by herself.
I don't know if it's because of the lack of signal, but Anmi's QR code never showed up after the elevator doors closed.
By the time it finally appeared on the screen, the elevator had already gone up more than thirty floors.
Someone must have pressed the elevator button upstairs.
This type of elevator cannot be scanned while it is in operation; you can only scan the code to get off when the elevator reaches the top floor.
Anmi leaned quietly against the elevator wall, waiting for it to stop.
Ding—We've reached the top floor.
When I opened the door, there was no one outside. They probably couldn't wait and took one of the other buses.
Anmi quickly scanned the QR code to go to the 15th floor.
The elevator doors closed and it descended steadily, but suddenly stopped when it reached the 42nd floor.
It seems someone on this floor wants to take the elevator.
Anmi suffers from social anxiety, especially in unfamiliar environments.
She quickly shrank into the corner of the elevator.
The moment the door opened, Anmi glanced outside, following the sound.
That one glance left her stunned.
The ceiling light shone down, revealing a man in a suit and tie, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His neat black hair was combed behind his ears, and his familiar gaze made Anmi's heart skip a beat.
How could he be here?!
Upon seeing An Mi, Yan Jinnian's eyes darkened slightly for a moment.
Because there were people around, he lowered his gaze slightly and calmly stepped into the elevator.
Yan Jinnian was very tall, and as soon as he entered, An Mi felt enveloped by a cold and desolate aura.
She couldn't help but shrink further into the corner.
The man stood silently with his back to her.
Anmi's gaze slid down his fair neck and broad shoulders, finally landing on the back of his hand where the veins were bulging.
The pink Hello Kitty band-aid is missing.
A thin layer of dark red scab had formed on the exposed wound.
Anmi stared at the wound for a long time.
A lady also entered with Yan Jinnian.
As the elevator descended, the woman glanced back at An Mi and said to Yan Jinnian, "Want to come to my house for dinner later?"
Upon hearing this, Anmi's heart tightened slightly.
She looked up and sized up the woman.
The lady was dressed very elegantly, wearing a set of jewelry that looked very valuable.
She then glanced at herself.
The shirt and suit skirt I bought from Taobao; the black satin shirt even had a large bow hanging down from the collar.
Compared to her, she suddenly felt like a little kid playing pretend in the workplace.
The elevator was quiet, which made Yan Jinnian's voice sound particularly deep and magnetic when he answered.
"OK."
bite--
As soon as he finished speaking, they arrived at the 15th floor.
Anmi had been playing the role of a wooden stake the whole time. When she heard the door open, she wanted to say "excuse me," but she opened her mouth for a long time and couldn't make a sound.
She suddenly found it difficult to speak.
No one spoke, so no one moved.
The elevator doors were quiet for a moment before slowly closing.
An Mi thought to herself, "Maybe I should just give up and scan it again when I get to the first floor."
Just as the elevator doors were about to close, the man who had been silent in front of him suddenly turned to the side and pressed the open button.
Aren't you going out?
Yan Jin asked in a low voice.
The woman glanced curiously behind her.
Besides the two of them, only Anmi was in the elevator.
Clearly, this was said to Anmi.
The circle in my heart began to shrink again.
Anmi hesitated for two seconds, said thank you, and then fled the elevator without looking back.
As they passed each other, her shoulder brushed against Yan Jinnian's chest.
It was a very light touch, but Anmi still couldn't help but flinch.
She ran like a headless fly until she hid behind a potted plant at the end of the corridor.
The potted plant was very tall, with lush leaves that shaded her petite body.
My face started to burn belatedly, and at the same time, some unfamiliar emotions arose in my heart.
Anmi stared at the leaves of the potted plant for a full two minutes.
Then, with a pout, a single, large tear fell heavily down her cheek.
Are you coming to my house for dinner later?
OK.
The man answered in a light tone, even with a hint of pleasure at the end.
You must be thrilled to have dinner with such a beautiful woman!
Anmi's eyes were brimming with tears.
Didn't you say you never interact with the opposite sex?
Didn't you say you would only contact her?
Tang Cai is right, all men are liars!
Sure enough, only she believed his nonsense.
She was deceived by him from head to toe!
He talked about getting married, but then he went to another woman's house for dinner.
No! It might not even be a meal!
"..."
Two more large tears rolled down Anmi's cheeks.
She cried for a while, wiped her tears with her sleeve, and went to the toilet to wash her face.
The department head was still waiting in the office; she couldn't afford to mess things up.
She returned to the office with red eyes. Her supervisor assigned her a workstation and introduced her to her colleagues.
Their department has a large number of people, about several dozen.
Although Anmi is socially awkward, she mustered up her courage and remained polite throughout.
She spent the rest of the morning chatting with the young lady next door.
At lunchtime, the girls all went down to the cafeteria to eat.
The thought of going down to eat alone instantly filled me with a sense of loneliness.
Ding—WeChat rang at that moment.
I opened my phone and saw that it was a message from Wanqiu.
"Honey, I'll be waiting for you at the cafeteria!"
Anmi glanced at the photos she had sent.
Isn't this the Yan family's employee cafeteria?
Wanqiu said the day before yesterday that she would also come to work at Yan's. Could it be today?
Realizing this, she instantly became happy, even though she had just been worried about eating alone.
Fingers clattered across the keyboard.
"I'm here, baby!"
