Chapter 24: Sister-in-law rescues sister-in-law
"Their company isn't a big one, so why does she have to work overtime every day?"
"They said it was stipulated by the leader." Pei's mother sighed as she spoke on the other end of the phone. "I don't know what's going on with their leader. He doesn't assign tasks during work, and only tells her after get off work that this needs to be done today, and that also needs to be done today. He also likes to call her back for meetings from time to time. She hasn't had a rest for more than a month."
"Is this leader mentally ill? Even Zhou Baopi wouldn't do it like this." Qin Song couldn't help but complain.
Pei Xingzhi looked at her in agreement and continued talking to Pei's mother: "Then why did she need to stay and work overtime today?"
Mother Pei: "I don't know either. She just called me and I heard her voice was a little tearful. I guess her boss asked her to do this again."
"Xingzhi, I think you should persuade Xiaoxuan to change her job. Her job is too hard, and it seems like these leaders are targeting her. There are so many people in the office, but she is the only one who has to work overtime every day. She has cried many times when she got off work and went home."
"What?" Pei Xingzhi's face suddenly turned cold.
Qin Song said the key: "Don't pretend, that lousy leader is bullying her on purpose. These people, probably because they saw that Pei Group went bankrupt and Xiaoxuan had no one to rely on, they started to act like a demon and commit suicide."
"Where is Xiaoxuan's company? Let's go to the company to pick her up."
"I know where it is!" Ye Ci suddenly raised his hand, "Sister-in-law, I'll take you there."
Pei Xingzhi nodded: "Okay, I understand. Qin Song and I will go to her company to find her now."
After hanging up the phone, he saved the data as quickly as possible and then turned off the computer: "Let's go, let's go together."
Qin Song stood up from the bed with his coat in his hand: "Let's go!"
Pei Lingxuan’s company is not far from Pei Xingzhi’s studio, and it only takes about ten minutes to drive there.
Qin Song sat in the passenger seat, cursing those shitty leaders all the way.
Pei Xingzhi responded to her while driving.
He has always been an extremely serious person towards Qin Song. Even if what Qin Song said was just pure anger and had no meaning, he would respond one by one and would never let Qin Song's words fall into vain.
Qin Song kept cursing for ten minutes straight until he finally got tired of it.
"Drink some water." She talked too much, and Pei Xingzhi was worried that she was thirsty, so he considerately handed her a bottle of water.
This bottle of water was drunk by Pei Xingzhi. She took it without even looking at it, and directly unscrewed the lid and put her lips to it to drink, without any disgust at all.
There was a red light ahead, so Pei Xingzhi slowly stepped on the brakes and stopped the car. Two seconds later, Ye Ci's car stopped nearby.
"Sister-in-law." Ye Ci lowered the car window and continued the topic that he had not finished before getting in the car, "Xiaoxuan's leader is a fool..."
Qin Song had just taken a breath, but upon hearing this he immediately started talking again, "That's right..."
"Eh..." Pei Xingzhi sighed softly and watched her babble with a smile. She followed them out directly after waking up, without even combing her hair, leaving a small tuft of hair on the back of her head still frizzy.
Pei Xingzhi saw it and helped her smooth it out, his movements were gentle and his eyes were smiling.
"arrive."
The car stopped under an office building. Pei Xingzhi unbuckled his seat belt and got out first.
Qin Song followed closely behind.
She stood in front of the car, looked up at the imposing office building in front of her, and shook her head with disdain: "Based on my years of job hunting experience, companies located in office buildings like this are generally not very good."
"Remove the word 'general'." Ye Ci stood beside her. "People working here are either making harassing phone calls or acting as cyber-trolls."
"Yeah!" Qin Song agreed very much, then turned to ask Pei Xingzhi, "What is Xiaoxuan doing in there? Making phone calls or being a troll?"
Pei Xingzhi walked into the office building: "Neither. Xiaoxuan is lucky, she found a job as a financial assistant there."
"Oh." Qin Song and Ye Ci followed closely in his footsteps.
While waiting for the elevator, Qin Song glanced at the time. It was almost seven o'clock, but most of the company's employees had not yet left work. The office building is brightly lit and bustling with voices.
"bite--"
The elevator door opened, and three people walked out side by side, heading straight into Pei Lingxuan's company.
Pei Lingxuan's workstation was close to the door, and Pei Xingzhi saw her at a glance. He was about to walk in, but Qin Song got there first.
"I'm going to go find Xiaoxuan, you two just wait at the door."
"No." Pei Xingzhi held her back, his brows knitted tightly, "You are still pregnant, it is not appropriate for you to get involved in these things."
"Humph," Qin Song suddenly laughed, his smile was cunning and perverse, "It's because I'm pregnant that I want to participate in these things. No matter how shitty that leader is, he doesn't have the courage to force a pregnant woman."
"Wait for me here. If I can't do it, I will call you in."
After saying that, Qin Song broke away from Pei Xingzhi's hand, turned around and strode towards Pei Lingxuan.
"Sister-in-law, is it really possible?" Ye Ci stared at her back with a look of doubt.
Pei Xingzhi shook his head: "I don't know either. But since she's on it, let her try first..."
"Xiao Xuan."
Qin Song walked straight to Pei Lingxuan's workstation and put his hand on her shoulder: "Isn't it time to get off work? Why don't you go home?"
Pei Lingxuan looked up when she heard that. When she saw Qin Song's face, she was stunned: "...Qin Song? Why are you here?"
Qin Song smiled and said, "I'm here to pick you up from get off work. Didn't we agree to have dinner together today?"
"...Eh." Pei Lingxuan's spirit instantly collapsed when she mentioned getting off work. She frowned depressedly and turned back to typing on the keyboard.
"I can't get off work today because I still have a lot of work to do. Qin Song, go back and eat first, don't wait for me. I can just order takeout later."
Qin Song didn't move: "We agreed to have dinner together, how could I not wait for you?"
As she spoke, she looked around the empty office and said, "Besides, isn't your company's end-of-get off work time at six o'clock? It's already seven o'clock, and other colleagues have left. Why can't you leave yet?"
Pei Lingxuan had a bitter face: "Because I haven't finished my work yet... I also want to get off work on time, but my boss has to assign me tasks before I get off work..."
"Pei Lingxuan, why are you chatting instead of working properly?"
Speak of the devil, and here he appears. As soon as Pei Lingxuan finished speaking, a shrill male voice sounded in front of her.
Qin Song looked up at the man, and when he saw his big bald head and fat belly, he instinctively wanted to vomit.
"Who are you?" The man saw that Qin Song looked unfamiliar and immediately knew that she was not from the company. He came over with a thermos cup, looked Qin Song up and down with unfriendly eyes, and waved his hand at Qin Song unceremoniously, "You are not from our company, what are you doing here? Get out of here! Don't disturb my employees' work!"
