Chapter 234 What kind of woman do you like?
Zhou Yunjie stepped into the company's gate at the last minute. When she passed the front desk, she suddenly stopped, pulled her cashmere scarf up again, and asked guiltily, "Is President Shen here today?"
The girl at the front desk was sorting documents with her head down. When she heard this, she looked up and her eyes fell on Zhou Yunjie, who was wrapped up like a dumpling - a brown cashmere coat and a scarf of the same color. "No. Doesn't Mr. Shen usually work at Xinglai?" After saying that, she blinked and asked curiously, "Manager Zhou, is it cold outside? Why are you wearing so many clothes?"
Zhou Yunjie tugged at the scarf around his neck and pretended to cough, "Oh, I might be catching a cold. I feel a little cold." After that, he quickly walked into the office area.
Busy work seems to be able to divert people's thoughts from certain memories that they don't want to recall.
Zhou Yunjie had almost never experienced such a focused moment. It seemed that as long as he focused all his energy on his work, those embarrassing scenes would automatically fade from his mind.
However, even the most efficient work will eventually be completed.
Today's efficiency was surprisingly high. The quality of the marketing plans submitted by subordinates exceeded expectations. Every detail was handled just right, and there was almost no room for modification.
After carefully checking all the plans, she went through the pile of unread emails in her mailbox one by one, and even replied to the routine weekly emails that did not require a reply on weekdays.
In the end, there was nothing left to do.
She simply stood up and took the cup to the tea room.
When she opened the door, she saw several colleagues gathered inside, chatting and laughing. Seeing her come in, Xiao Wang, a colleague from the marketing department, greeted her enthusiastically, "Manager Zhou, come and try some of the snacks I made."
Only then did Zhou Yunjie notice the small box of cookies on the table.
Normally, she would have decisively declined such a boring social occasion, but today she really needed something to distract herself. Picking up the cup of coffee she had just accepted, she took a deep breath and walked towards the group of people sitting on the sofa in the lounge area.
Xiao Wang enthusiastically handed her a freshly baked cookie. She tasted it politely and said, "It's really delicious."
The aroma of warm coffee and desserts relaxed her tense mood a little.
The simple compliment was like a lubricant, blending effortlessly into the casual conversation. Everything that followed fell into place naturally. Zhou Yunjie, holding his coffee cup, quietly listened to the random chatter of the few people.
"Hey, has anyone of you seen Mr. Shen's wife?" Someone suddenly brought up this topic.
Zhou Yunjie's heart tightened.
I heard another person reply, "How can we, as small employees, have the chance to see him? Besides, Mr. Shen usually works in Xinglai, so I guess people from Xinglai have seen him, right?"
This gossip topic was like a lit fuse, and several people immediately became interested.
"Eh?" Xiao Wang suddenly turned to Zhou Yunjie, who had been sitting in the corner without saying much, and his eyes lit up. "Manager Zhou, weren't you transferred here from Xinglai? Have you ever met Mr. Shen's wife?"
Being asked suddenly, Zhou Yunjie paused for a moment, his coffee cup in his hand flickering for a moment, and he looked away with a guilty look, "No... I haven't seen it."
The remaining few people showed disappointed expressions, and some even sighed exaggeratedly.
Xiao Wang did not give up and asked, "What kind of woman do you think Mr. Shen likes?"
Another person immediately replied, "Of course... She's got to be good-looking, have a great figure, and have good emotional intelligence. At the very least—she has to look and have a figure like Manager Zhou..."
The coffee in Zhou Yunjie's mouth suddenly choked on his throat, and his eyes turned red from coughing.
Fortunately, this sudden change brought the topic to a halt, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
