At the dinner table, everyone was talking and laughing. Since everyone present was a leader, they naturally talked about things in the company, from the latest projects to the company's development.
Du Xiran occasionally joined in the conversation, but mostly just listened. If her MD hadn't asked her to come to the dinner, she would rather work overtime at the company.
Not to mention whether you like the content of the dinner or not, just drinking this table of food and drinks is simply a killer for weight loss. You need to exercise for a few days to lose all this fat and water.
Think about it, she will be thirty next year, and she doesn’t want to be as greasy as some of her colleagues here.
"I heard that Mr. Yu is getting married at the end of the year." A colleague talked about the person in charge of a certain project, "I have to prepare red envelopes again."
"Isn't Mr. Yu married?" another person asked curiously.
"Second marriage."
Everyone laughed. MD suddenly looked at Du Xiran and joked, "Mr. Yu got married for the second time before he was 30, and our beautiful Du is still single."
Du Xiran took a sip of wine and said, "No need to drag me down, ha."
Everyone else laughed, and a female colleague asked curiously, "Lao Du, tell us the truth, are you really not in a relationship? Or are you having an affair?"
"We really didn't talk about it. If I had, why would I hide it from you? I would have announced it to everyone and asked you all to treat us." Du Xiran said.
"Okay, as long as you can find a partner, I will definitely treat you." The female colleague made the decision directly, "It depends on whether you give me this opportunity."
Du Xiran also smiled: "I also want to know if there is such an opportunity."
The male colleague said, "That's because you don't give them a chance. There are many people chasing you, and you rejected every one of them as soon as they confessed their love. We are all adults, and few of them can be loyal to each other forever. Basically, once you reject them, they will start looking for someone new. Sometimes you shouldn't set your standards too high. At least try to get in touch with them first before rejecting them."
Du Xiran: "What's going on? Why don't you talk about business and gossip about me? Or you can talk about the company. Do you have any good projects to introduce?"
"Aren't all the good projects in your hands?" A colleague said with a smile, "By the way, I heard that Mr. Ye will come to the company at the end of the month to inspect the work of each department. Is this true?"
MD said: "You are well-informed. It is true. It is just a routine inspection. There is no need to publicize it. Just go about your work as usual."
Du Xiran nodded, thinking of Mr. Ye who was so busy that he was rarely seen, and felt a little respect for him.
When she was an intern, she had the honor of meeting Mr. Ye once. However, her assistant at the time made a mistake on a project, which caused the company to suffer a lot of losses. The entire team was implicated and she was almost fired.
At that time, she had just sent money back home and had very little left. If she was fired, it might leave an ugly mark on her resume, and it might also affect her search for a new job.
Helpless, she hid in the corridor and cried alone. She happened to run into Mr. Ye who came out to smoke. Mr. Ye asked her the reason and went back to check her work situation. Not only did he not fire her, he also transferred her to a very powerful VP at the time. Since then, her work has been going smoothly.
Although her colleagues have changed one after another, she has always stayed in Zhenghe. There are also headhunters who have offered her high salaries. However, the higher she goes, the more she values the spirit of an enterprise. It is rare for her to be willing to lower her posture and listen to the demands of a small intern.
She didn't want to supervise an intern before, partly because she was busy with work and partly because she felt she couldn't do it well. Perhaps it was because Mr. Ye had set such a good example that she felt inferior to him.
But...she looked down at her bag, which contained a pair of gloves and socks, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
Maybe she is doing a good job as a boss?
After the dinner, Du Xiran realized that these people were all picked up by their families or partners, and she was the only one left who had to call for a designated driver.
It’s so abominable.
Even if you were urged to get married a thousand times, it would not be as painful as this scene.
Du Xiran, who had always been stubborn, suddenly had an idea - how about having a love relationship?
The night scene outside the window passed by quickly, and Du Xiran tilted his head to look at the scenery outside.
At first, she wanted to have her own house in this city, so she plunged into her work, turning a deaf ear to other people and only cared about making a lot of money.
Now she finally has her own house, the old house has been renovated, and Du Heruo has also been brought here to receive better resources.
Now that you've done most of the work you need to do, is it time to consider relationship matters?
After getting drunk, someone came to pick her up and take her home. It was pretty nice to think about it...
The car stopped downstairs. She had drunk some wine, so she wasn't completely drunk, but her steps were a little shaky. Fortunately, she could still control it.
The sound of her high heels stepping loudly in the corridor, she walked to the door of her house with some light and heavy clatters, and after searching in her bag for a long time she couldn't find the key, and accidentally squeezed out the socks that Ye Nanning had given her.
She simply squatted down to pick up her socks, and then looked for her keys in her bag in the light.
At this time, the door opposite opened, and Ye Nanning stood at the door and shouted, "Boss Du, you're back."
Du Xiran raised her head and looked over. The light behind Ye Nanning fell on her, as if she was covered with a thin layer of wings, with a hazy beauty.
Du Xiran blinked slowly and said, "Well...you haven't slept yet?"
"Since I couldn't sleep, I made some hangover soup. Would you like to drink some, Mr. Du?" Ye Nanning invited.
"Hangover soup?" Du Xiran repeated.
"Um."
"Okay." Du Xiran just stood up, the alcohol and the action of squatting and standing up made her dizzy and she staggered a few times.
Ye Nanning ran over quickly, and a faint scent of lime came to her face, which was very pleasant. Du Xiran's eyes cleared up for a moment.
"Have you taken a shower?" Du Xiran turned his head to look at her and touched the end of her hair, which was a little wet.
"Well, Mr. Du, be careful." Ye Nanning helped her into the house and sat directly on the sofa. Then she took out the pair of pink slippers and ran over to take off her shoes. After she put on slippers, she went to wash her hands and brought out a bowl of sobering soup.
Du Xiran rested one hand on the armrest, supported his head, and looked at her smooth movements in surprise: "You are too skilled."
Ye Nanning lowered her head embarrassedly: "Drink some soup first."
Du Xiran shook his head, then sat up straight, picked up the bowl and took two sips. It tasted sour and sweet, refreshing and appetizing.
"It tastes good. This is not your first time making it, right?" Du Xiran exclaimed.
Ye Nanning shook her head: "Someone in the family drinks frequently."
"No wonder..." Du Xiran quickly finished a bowl of hangover soup, then leaned back on the sofa, "I don't want to move now, can I sit here for a while?"
"Of course." Ye Nanning wanted nothing more than to ask, "You take a rest here. I'll go wash the dishes first."
Soon there was a sound of water coming from the kitchen. Du Xiran turned his head, stared at her back and said, "Ye Nanning, is there anything you don't know how to do?"
Ye Nanning turned around and gave her a faint smile: "There are many things I don't know."
"But you seem to know everything." It has to be said that in terms of life, Du Xiran felt that he was not even half as good as her.
"Because I live alone, I have to do everything myself." Ye Nanning told the truth, but it inexplicably made Du Xiran feel a lump in her throat.
Maybe it was because of the alcohol, but Du Xiran was very sentimental at the moment. He felt that this girl had a hard time, so he said, "Everything will be fine in the future. You have a good job now, so you can find a partner in the future and have whatever you want."
Ye Nanning paused and continued washing the dishes.
Du Xiran still had a slight sour taste in his mouth, and smiled to himself: "But it's not bad now. Our two families live in harmony and friendship, and we get along pretty well. I didn't expect that I could drink such a delicious hangover soup after getting drunk."
"I can still do it for Mr. Du in the future, but I'd better try not to drink alcohol," said Ye Nanning.
"There's nothing I can do. I have so many social engagements, especially with clients." Du Xiran yawned.
Ye Nanning wiped her hands and walked over to stand opposite her. After a moment, she slowly moved to sit next to her, turned her head and asked, "How do you feel now? Are you still dizzy?"
"Better now, thanks." Du Xiran felt a little sleepy, so he just lay on his side on the sofa, "Do you mind if I lie down for a while?"
Ye Nanning shook her head, took a blanket to cover her, and smoothed the hair around her ears.
Du Xiran looked at her in confusion, and she belatedly explained, "I think you're about to press your hair."
"I didn't say anything to you, why are you so nervous?" Du Xiran smiled faintly.
Ye Nanning sat quietly beside her and watched her. Du Xiran had just closed her eyes for a few minutes when her phone woke up.
"Boss Du." Ye Nanning called out, but the other party showed no sign of waking up, so she poked her face with her finger, "Boss Du, your phone is ringing."
"Yeah." Du Xiran naturally heard it, but she just didn't want to wake up. She impatiently took out her cell phone, looked at the caller, and answered softly, "Hello, Mom."
Ye Nanning immediately became alert and dared not make any noise. She took out the orange from the fruit bowl and began to peel it quietly.
The living room was so quiet that she could even hear the voice on the other end of the phone. After a round of caring greetings, she asked Mr. Du if he would be back home on New Year's Day.
"No, I'll come back during the New Year." Du Xiran replied.
"Okay, then you must come back for the New Year."
When Du Xiran heard this, he knew something was wrong and asked, "Are you asking me to go on a blind date again?"
"Well, your second aunt introduced you to a nice boy. I heard he's quite good. Do you want to meet him?"
"I don't want to go on a blind date." Du Xiran turned over in anger.
"What if we don't have a blind date? You don't take the initiative to look for her. You're alone with He Ruo in City B. The two girls have no relatives or friends. Do you really think we're not worried?"
Du Xiran curled his lips silently, but did not object blindly.
"Why don't you add each other on WeChat and chat, and then meet up if you get along well."
Du Xiran sighed deeply: "Okay, you have the final say."
After hanging up the phone, Du Xiran turned his head and found Ye Nanning holding a peeled orange in her hand, staring at him in amazement.
"how?"
"Mr. Du, are you going on a blind date?" Ye Nanning asked softly.
"Just deal with it." Du Xiran said.
"Oh..." Ye Nanning broke the orange flesh in half and handed it to her mouth, "Boss Du, do you want to eat it?"
Du Xiran opened her mouth and bit into it, accidentally touching her fingers without noticing, and shook her feet comfortably: "This day is really comfortable."
Ye Nanning's fingers trembled as she continued to feed her, feeling extremely happy.
After eating one, Ye Nanning started peeling the second one.
Du Xiran took the time to check her phone and found that she had received a friend request so quickly. After she accepted the request, the blind date man sent her a smiling emoticon.
She smiled back politely.
Blind date man: [Hello, I was introduced by your second aunt. My name is XXX. I currently work in City C. I have already bought a house and a car. My annual salary is one million. I would like to ask if you are willing to have a long-distance relationship? ]
Du Xiran: [Hello, I don’t accept it]
Blind date man: [......]
Blind date man:
Du Xiran said with a smile:
Blind date man:
Du Xiran: [You are really easy to satisfy, smiling soybean man.jpg]
Blind date man:
Du Xiran: [Wish you happiness, goodbye]
Ye Nanning had just finished peeling the orange when Du Xiran snatched it away. Seeing her eat it all in one gulp with an ugly expression, he asked, "Who made President Du angry?"
"A man." Du Xiran said.
"Which man?"
“No.”
"......"
Du Xiran finished chewing the orange and wiped his mouth: "Tell me, why are these men so annoying?"
Ye Nanning nodded: "Yes."
"Help me! When I think about spending my whole life with these men, I get scared and afraid of marriage." Du Xiran collapsed on the sofa powerlessly. "I now have a deeper suspicion that I may never get married in my lifetime."
Ye Nanning: "Why?"
"You have that kind of social awkwardness, right? It's hard for you to build good relationships with the opposite sex, and it's always too easy for you to see through their true thoughts. Even if you meet an excellent man, it's hard to create any sparks. You always stay at the level of admiration and can't move forward to a deeper relationship." Du Xiran said so much in one breath under the influence of the alcohol, but he had also said these words to Zhang Mishuang before.
After hearing this, Zhang Mishuang felt that she had not yet met her true love, so he introduced high-quality stocks to her more frequently, believing that she would definitely meet the one she wanted.
After Du Xiran finished complaining, he found that the person sitting next to him was Ye Nanning. Seeing that she was about to speak, he thought: It's over, here comes another person who advises me to get in touch with more high-quality men.
Unexpectedly, Ye Nanning said: "What a coincidence, me too."
Du Xiran was startled: "What are you too?"
"I'm in the same state. It's difficult for me to establish good relationships with the opposite sex. I'm not interested in them at all." Ye Nanning replied.
"Isn't it? I said I couldn't be the only one like this! There are so many single women in the world!" Du Xiran sat up and looked at the new ally with a smile, "Don't you think so?"
Ye Nanning nodded, then shook her head: "But I'm not a celibate."
Du Xiran looked at her with confusion and curiosity: "What do you think? Are you going to waste your time on these men?"
Ye Nanning shook her head.
"Kefan is unable to get close to the opposite sex, and doesn't want to be a celibate? What are you going to do?" Du Xiran leaned forward, very close to her, stared into her eyes carefully, then pinched her right cheek, "Wake up, this is impossible, unless you force yourself to find a random man to marry."
Ye Nanning felt pain and subconsciously held her face, but she covered the back of her hand: "No, I won't find a man to marry."
Du Xiran stared at her blankly, his hand moved slightly, but he forgot to take it back, letting her hold it on his cheek, and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Ye Nanning took a deep breath, stared into her eyes, and said, "Boss Du, I like women."
The author has something to say:
Last second, Du Xiran: What a coincidence, I found an ally!
The next second, Du Xiran: ? Ally likes women, what about me? ? ? ? ? ?
