Chapter 17 White Gift Bag
Originally, Yu Huan could leave work after delivering the gifts, but now she has another gift in hand, so she has to go back to the company and give the gift to Meng Han before leaving.
When she arrived at the company, Meng Han was still in a meeting.
The meeting was supposed to end half an hour before the end of get off work, but it has now passed the end of get off work by more than ten minutes, so it seems that things are not going smoothly.
She didn't plan to stay and wait for Meng Han. It would not go smoothly and he would definitely be in a bad mood. What if he saw her waiting for him and said that she was inflexible, which would only make her feel upset.
Over the past few days, she has gotten to know Meng Han's temper a little better. As He Xiaowei said, all Meng Han needs is a secretary who is obedient and does what he assigns him to do.
What he hates most are subordinates who act on their own.
Yu Huan sometimes felt that what Meng Han needed was not so much a secretary as a servant, a servant who would obey orders unconditionally.
But whether he was a secretary or a servant, Yu Huan was very happy with his job.
After placing the gift box on his desk and sending him a message, Yu Huan prepared to leave work.
As she reached the office door, it was opened from the outside, and she suddenly met the person outside.
She was stunned for a moment, then immediately stepped aside to make way, "Boss Meng."
Meng Han's eyes swept over her and he walked past her inside.
As he passed by her, he dropped a sentence over her head, "I'm sorry for delaying your get off work."
Perhaps Yu Huan was a bit of a slave at heart. She reacted completely subconsciously, without even thinking, and immediately replied, "No, I like working overtime!"
These words successfully made Meng Han stop. He stopped and turned to look at Yu Huan, and a slight frown appeared on his usually indifferent and expressionless face.
"Secretary Yu."
Yu Huan's heart tightened, knowing that his flattery had backfired again.
Meng Han hates people who are smooth talkers the most.
But she is not a smooth talker, everything she says is from the heart.
In order to avoid being misunderstood, she immediately explained: "Boss Meng, I'm not flattering you, I really like working overtime!"
Perhaps after all these years of working, this was the first time he met someone who liked to work overtime. A hint of curiosity flashed in Meng Han's eyes.
"reason?"
The biggest reason why Yu Huan likes to work overtime is that he can't tell his boss, but there is another reason that he can directly express to Meng Han.
But when she opened her mouth, she felt a little embarrassed. She lowered her head and whispered, "Because... there's overtime pay."
Meng Han didn't expect it to be because of such a simple reason.
The corners of his mouth lifted up slightly.
"Very honest."
After receiving such an evaluation, Yu Huan raised his head slightly and walked into the lounge.
She withdrew her gaze and left the office, speculating secretly in her heart.
Is this a compliment?
Well...she thinks it should be!
She was so happy to receive the compliment again that she felt relieved even on the way home from get off work.
Meng Han went into the lounge and changed into a more formal suit. When he came out, there was no one outside the office.
Suddenly, that smiling face came to his mind. He retracted his gaze and walked out of the company.
Today is his niece's coming-of-age ceremony, so as an elder he naturally has to attend.
When we arrived at the hotel, the party had just begun.
He handed the gift to the person in charge of receiving gifts at the door, and handed over a large red envelope, then entered the hall.
The banquet was grand, with almost all the prominent figures in H City coming. A girl dressed elegantly stood on the stage with her parents, thanking the guests.
Meng Han stopped and listened for a few words, then retracted his gaze and scanned the room.
His eyes met his parents in the crowd and he moved forward.
"Dad, Mom."
His father Meng Yunjiang nodded slightly at him, his face showing his usual indifferent and serious expression, and his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Meng Han.
Her mother, Wang Jiting, stared at the stage with an indignant expression and scoffed, "Last year at Xiaojie's coming-of-age ceremony, she said things like, 'The times are tough, don't be too ostentatious.' Now that it's my daughter's turn, I don't think it's necessary to be too ostentatious."
The Xiaojie mentioned by Wang Jiting is Meng Han’s niece Meng Yujie, born to his brother.
The girl on the stage at this time, Meng Yuheng, is his cousin and the daughter of his third brother of this generation.
All members of the Meng family work in the company, and everyone has different thoughts. Wang Jiting has always been dissatisfied with her eldest uncle's family, who is highly valued by the old man.
"Ji Ting." Meng Yunjiang glanced at his wife and reminded her.
Wang Jiting looked angry, but she still kept her mouth shut.
Meng Han stood in the distance without saying a word, as if he was already accustomed to this scene. His expression was indifferent, as if all this had nothing to do with him.
After the speech on the stage ended, Meng Yunjiang searched the crowd, but didn't see the person he wanted to see, and his brows furrowed.
"Did you see Meng Xia and Meng Chun give birth?"
Meng Han has two biological brothers, Meng Xia is his elder brother and Meng Chunsheng is his younger brother.
"No."
Meng Yunjiang's expression grew increasingly grim. "Where have these two gone? They're more likely to cause trouble than to help!"
He cursed and looked at Meng Han, his eyes filled with both relief and sternness. "They are useless. Our family can only rely on you. I just saw the chairman of Fenghe Group is here too. Come with me to say hello."
Meng Han had no objection. He took the wine glass from the waiter and followed Meng Yunjiang into the crowd.
By the time this grand and extravagant banquet ended, it was almost dawn.
When Meng Han came out of the hotel, although he walked steadily, his red face and somewhat distracted eyes made it obvious that he was a little drunk.
Master He had already driven the car to the hotel entrance and was waiting. The doorman opened the door for him and helped him into the car.
"Boss Meng, shall we take you back directly?"
"Um."
The car drove out of the hotel and into a busy downtown area.
This is the bar street in the city center. It is very lively now, and the streets are full of people coming and going.
The people were crowded, the car was crowded, and the car was moving at a snail's pace.
Meng Han looked at the crowd slowly moving outside the car window and fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, a screen on a street store caught his attention.
It should be a store for niche hobbies. A picture on the screen suddenly made a mole flash in his mind.
A black mole is faintly visible under the shirt.
As if possessed by some mysterious force, he called out, "Master He, stop the car."
Master He was slightly startled. "Park here? But there's no parking space here."
"It's okay, just drive to the front and wait for me."
"Okay, Mr. Meng."
More than ten minutes later, Meng Han found Master He's car on the roadside carrying a white gift bag.
After returning home, Meng Han was a little drunk and felt a little ridiculous looking at the bag in his hand.
He threw the bag into the cloakroom.
After taking two steps away, he felt something was not right, so he went back and put the bag in the closet in the winter clothing area.
After coming out of the cloakroom, he entered the room he hadn't been to for a long time, and it took him a long time to come out of the room.
