Chapter 14
On Tuesday, Xue Mi finally officially resigned from the company.
On the day of her resignation, she invited her office colleagues to a meal, and everyone responded enthusiastically. Even Sister Huang, who had always been at odds with Xue Mi, went with a shameless face.
During this period, everyone was saying that Xue Mi was actually a rich second-generation who had been hiding among everyone under an assumed name just to experience the life of an ordinary person.
Only Sister Huang refused to believe it. She thought Xue Mi was just hooking up with a rich man, so she suddenly started to tremble.
"She used to look so poor, but she still used a cell phone worth more than 1,000 yuan for two years, and she still needed to install it!" Sister Huang didn't believe those rumors at all, "She has fooled all of you."
"Then why did you come for this meal?" A colleague looked at her.
"It's a waste if you don't eat it. I tell you, girls should still respect themselves. Take my daughter for example. She found a good job and meets a lot of rich men every day. Many of them are chasing her. Even so, I have repeatedly taught her that she must be very selective in choosing her marriage partner. Otherwise, even if she finds a rich man, he will be dumped in a few minutes and she won't even have a place to cry."
The last sentence is obviously an allusion to Xue Mi.
But now, she didn't dare to say these words in front of Xue Mi, and could only gossip about them behind her back.
For this dinner, Xue Mi did not choose a particularly expensive restaurant, but just found a private room with a nice environment near the company.
As soon as we got to the restaurant, Sister Huang started to say something sour again: "You guys said she was so great, I thought we could have this meal in a five-star hotel, but it turned out to be just like this."
So I said, it’s all bullshit.
Xue Mi's dining partner rolled his eyes: "Who do you think you are?"
Although she was very disgusted at the door, Sister Huang calmed down after entering the box in front of Xue Mi. However, she still did not forget to brag about her daughter, saying that she had found a good job, had a high salary, and often went to various expensive restaurants, and would definitely marry a rich man in the future.
She is so annoying that no one wants to pay attention to her.
As they were about to leave, Xue Mi was too lazy to bother with such people and just chatted and laughed with a few former colleagues with whom she had a good relationship.
The prices in this restaurant are not high, but the food is not bad and the portions are large. Xue Mi was quite satisfied with the meal.
Except for some people, the meal was quite enjoyable for everyone. But when we were about to pay the bill, someone came over and said hello:
"Ms. Xue, you are also having dinner here? What a coincidence."
It turned out that Yuan Xuebing and her department were also having a dinner here.
While Yuan Xuebing was chatting with Xue Mi, he made a gesture and one of his subordinates immediately went over to pay the bill. It was obvious that they cooperated very skillfully and Xue Mi didn't even have time to refuse.
She was a little surprised that Xue Mi was just an employee of an ordinary small company before, but as a rich person, it is normal to have any hobbies. What if this person just likes to pretend to be an ordinary person?
So she only chatted for a few words, paid the bill and was about to leave, but at this moment, Sister Huang, who had just come out of the toilet, suddenly called out to an employee from the bank: "Xiao Xin? So you guys are having dinner here too!"
The person who was stopped by Sister Huang was her daughter who had always been showing off her great potential.
Xiao Xin was also surprised: "Mom? Why are you here too?"
"My colleague is treating us." Sister Huang was in the bathroom just now and missed the pleasantries and chats. At this time, she said to her colleague with pride: "This is my daughter. Isn't she pretty? She has a good job. She works in the VIP department of a bank, specializing in dealing with rich people."
The others looked speechless.
She indeed specializes in dealing with rich people. Just now, the leader of their department was still rushing to pay the bill for Xue Mi.
When Yuan Xuebing saw the reactions of the people present, he quickly came up with a plan. He didn't say anything, just smiled and left.
Xiaoxin was stopped by Sister Huang. Her mother was still showing off her daughter to her colleagues, but Xiaoxin looked uneasy. She glanced at Xue Mi and pulled her mother hard, finally stopping her mother from talking.
Although he really didn't like Sister Huang, Xue Mi didn't have any preconceived ill feelings towards the girl. He said goodbye to everyone else and took an online taxi home.
"I told you before that she was just pretending. Otherwise, why would she take a taxi when she doesn't even have a car?" Sister Huang said gloatingly again.
As soon as she said this, the girl named Xiaoxin turned pale and almost covered her mother's mouth, then quickly pulled her away.
When the mother and daughter were alone, she asked her mother fearfully, "That person just now... is she the colleague you've always had a problem with? What's her name?"
"Yes, he's just a poor guy who likes to show off his wealth. His name is Xue Mi." Sister Huang thought she had finally seen through Xue Mi's disguise and was looking very smug.
"Mom, she is really rich. Did you know that she is the most important client of our bank recently? Even our manager has to flatter her!"
"Ah? How is that possible! He is a bank manager. Would he really support such a little girl? He must have been deceived by her!" Sister Huang said firmly.
"No matter whether it's true or not, your daughter's job might be ruined just by one word from that person." Xiao Xin said angrily.
She is currently in her internship period, and whether she can stay or not is just a matter of a word from her manager.
If a big client really dislikes her, it certainly won't be the other party that will be affected.
After hearing about the seriousness of the problem, Sister Huang's previous smugness finally disappeared completely, and her face became paler than her daughter's: "No way... How can it be so serious... Can it affect your work?"
The next day at work, Manager Yuan specifically called Xiaoxin over and asked about the relationship between her mother and Xue Mi. Xiaoxin could only say vaguely that they were just ordinary colleagues and they were not very familiar with each other.
Xue Mi actually didn't take the matter to heart at all and forgot about it in the blink of an eye. Yuan Xuebing didn't take it too seriously either. The key account department was very busy, so at most Xiao Xin could handle other people's business, and it wouldn't affect anything.
Helplessly, the mother and daughter lived in fear for many days, fearing that they would be held accountable later and lose their jobs.
Sister Huang also thought about shamelessly trying to get closer to Xue Mi, but as soon as she sent her carefully worded words, she found out that she had been blocked by Xue Mi.
She knew that the guy hated her!
In fact, except for a few people with whom she had a good relationship, all other former colleagues had long been deleted by Xue Mi.
There won't be any contact in the future, so keeping it in the address book just takes up space.
As for comments like "not valuing old friendship" and "low emotional intelligence", well, we are just colleagues who earn a salary together, there isn't much affection between us.
Those people don't deserve it.

After resigning from the company, Xue Mi has been busy cleaning her rental house in preparation for moving out.
In accordance with the terms of the lease contract, she informed the landlord one month in advance, and the landlord also posted a rental advertisement.
This location has convenient transportation and the price is reasonable, so soon there were house viewers who wanted to see the house.
After all, she has rented a house here for two years. The landlord is a nice person and she lives comfortably here. So Xue Mi did not object to the landlord's request to bring people to see the house. However, she did not like strangers coming and going in her house. Besides, there were only ten days left before the lease expired, so Xue Mi decided to move out early and vacate the house to make it convenient for everyone.
Xue Mi didn’t have much luggage of her own, so her biggest headache was the large number of express deliveries she had bought before.
Up to now, more than half of the packages have not been unpacked.
Sure enough, whether you are rich or poor, you will learn a lesson from impulse shopping.
Xue Mi looked at the pile of packages that was still like a small mountain, sighed with a headache, and then directly called Zhang Xuan, her dining partner and the newcomer over, asking them to help her sort it out and take everything away at the same time.
Even though they were prepared in advance, they couldn't help but be shocked when they saw such a large pile of unopened express packages.
"If you can't dismantle them all, why did you buy so many?!"
Xue Mi looked innocent: "I just accidentally... became addicted."
Click on the exquisite pictures, select the specifications, and make the payment. The shopping platforms have long figured out the smoothest shopping process. Coupled with the natural desire to hoard, as long as you have money, who hasn’t been impulsive?
Of course, Xue Mi herself admitted that she was impulsive for a little longer and the impact caused was a little greater.
"There must be something you need in here," Zhang Xuan said with a smile, "Why don't we clear it out first?"
"No need to go through so much trouble. You can just buy it later." Xue Mi didn't care at all.
This is probably the face of a nouveau riche.
Think about it again, my best friend just bought a villa worth tens of millions two days ago, so the pile of express deliveries in front of me are really just drizzle.
When they were opening the package, everyone else couldn't help but look unhappy.
"You don't have a pet, why are you buying cat food?" asked the dinner partner curiously.
"Huh? I also bought this?" Xue Mi looked confused.
…
"You bought this floral cotton jacket to give to an elderly person in your family, right?"
“No, I just thought the pattern was pretty bright, so I ordered it. How about giving it to Aunt Shen?”
"My mother wouldn't like this..." Zhang Xuan looked disgusted.
It took four people more than an hour to unpack all the express packages.
In addition to the messy pet food, strange clothes for the elderly, and some even weirder gadgets, several people also found a lot of good things, such as a siphon coffee machine - although Xue Mi never drinks coffee, several sets of formal wear with perfumes from various big brands - she also has no habit of using perfume, and a bunch of skin care and makeup that are definitely not cheap, as well as a bunch of decorations that are indeed beautiful in shape but definitely not suitable for most people's homes, and a large number of messy clothes, shoes and hats from various seasons, and even some styles bought in several colors at once, just like a collector.
Many of the clothes and shoes are not the right size, but now it’s probably too late to change them.
Zhang Xuan looked at her friend with an indescribable look, while Xue Mi had an innocent look on her face.
She just couldn't control herself, she didn't do it on purpose. After she realized her mistake, she never bought anything so impulsively again - except for the 30 million villa.
