Chapter 60: Is the salary enough to live on?
In the general manager's office.
Gu Pingping looked at the pen that looked like a scale lying across the desk and asked, "Mr. Zhou, your pen looks pretty good. Where did you buy it?"
Zhou Ran turned his chair while holding his phone: "Personalized customization."
Gu Pingping concentrated on examining the pen, as if it were a cultural relic. "Wow, there's even a name engraved on it?"
Mr. Zhou said leisurely, "Ah!" "You haven't seen it before?"
"No." Gu Pingping straightened up and returned to the topic, placing the yellow briefcase in front of him. "Mr. Zhou, this is the information you asked me to look up. This woman is currently divorced and has a twelve-year-old daughter. She has been renting a house for many years. I heard that her ex-husband owed loan sharks and even beat up students at school, nearly costing her her job."
Gu Pingping added: "Someone used connections to secure it, and the rest are in the file."
Zhou Ran sat up straight. "Well, let's go to the sales department and talk to Mr. Zhang. We've sent a new batch of samples from the new factory. Let him take a look first!"
Gu Pingping: "Okay."
Zhou Ran: "Also, regarding the company anniversary celebration plan, tell the Administration Department and Planning Department that we're inviting foreign clients this year. Tell them to stop trying to fool me with plans from previous years. If they can do it, do it. If they can't, hand it over to someone else."
Gu Pingping responded: "Okay, I'll go down then."
Zhou Ran waved his hand, and after the people left, he took out the information from the file bag.
A woman's information sheet.
Wen Lijun, 41, geography teacher at Lindu Middle School...
Outsider.
Zhou Ran pointed his index finger at the table and looked at the ID photo. The one taken by the dashcam looked much older.
Zhou Ran chuckled, stood up and put the personal information form into the shredder.
On the other side, after Yan Nian received the news that Mu Chen had arrived in the capital, he told Xu Ke immediately.
Xu Ke has been missing these past two days, either not replying to messages or being busy.
This time, Mu Chen was invited to attend the Lindu Psychological Crisis Intervention System Construction Forum. He will not stay here for too long, about a week.
Come back to see them after the forum.
Yan Nian lingered until everyone had left, then went to find Zhou Ran after get off work.
"Come in."
Yan Nian pushed the door open and went in: "Mr. Zhou, are you still busy?"
Zhou Ran sat in his office chair and asked, "What's the matter?"
Yan Nian sat down quietly: "I'll take you home."
"..." Zhou Ran raised the corner of his lips, "What day is this?"
Yan Nian replied: "The third day."
Zhou Ran leaned back in his chair: "Are you planning to keep compensating me like this?"
Yan Nian's eyes flickered: "Then I'll treat you to a meal."
Zhou Ran said angrily: "Workout, no eating."
Yan Nian: "Then I'll bring you lunch later?"
Zhou Ran: "Is your salary enough for two people to eat?"
Yan Nian said patiently, "If you just eat it, it's enough."
"..." Zhou Ran laughed angrily, "You should bring breakfast!"
Yan Nian remained silent, and Zhou Ran tossed the key to her: "Translator Yan, do I have to pay you two salaries?"
Yan Nian replied: "No, my salary is enough for me, and I am willing to send you home."
Zhou Ran was speechless. He had turned down two social engagements in the past few days.
The two of them took the elevator down together and met people downstairs. Seeing the two of them together again, everyone looked at them strangely.
Not long after Yan Nian became a regular employee, Xu Mi showed her the news in the gossip group.
The general meaning is that she has been promoted and successfully stayed in the translation team.
The man with connections used his good looks to seduce the iron-faced and impartial Mr. Zhou, the white moonlight of all the women in the company.
Now he has become a thorn in the eyes of all the women in the company.
The more convinced the translation team is of her innocence, the tighter the nails will be hammered down.
It is a foregone conclusion that she seduced Zhou Ran.
…
Yan Nian sent Zhou Ran home and then drove back.
Whenever passing by his own parking space, Yan Nian would always make a special effort to check if there were any fewer cars.
In the past few days, Yan Qi's car has been coming back later and later. It is now past ten o'clock and he has not returned yet.
Yan Nian returned home, pushed the door open, and was hit by the smell of alcohol.
There has never been this kind of smell in the house before.
Yan Nian changed his shoes and went in. Xu Yiqing was lying on the sofa, drunk.
Yan Nian walked over and squatted down: "Mom, let's go in and sleep."
Xu Yiqing muttered and slowly opened his eyes. He stared for two seconds and then grabbed her arm: "Sisi, you're back."
Yan Nian lowered her eyes in disappointment: "I am Yan Nian, not Sisi."
Xu Yiqing was disappointed and fell asleep again.
Yan Nian's legs were numb from squatting, so he simply sat on the ground, looked at Xu Yiqing numbly for a while, and let out a long breath.
Time passed minute by minute. Seeing that she didn't seem to be waking up, Yan Nian stood up, grabbed Xu Yiqing's hand, and struggled to get her into the room.
He changed Xu Yiqing's pajamas and poured a glass of water on the cabinet.
Glancing at the divorce agreement on the bedside table, Yan Nian picked it up and looked through it.
Regarding the division of marital property, Yan Nian read each item carefully.
At the end, Yan Qilin has signed, but Xu Yiqing has not yet signed.
Yan Nian took the divorce agreement and threw Xu Yiqing's alcohol-stained clothes into the washing machine.
I returned to my room, opened the drawer under the dressing table, and put the waste paper into the drawer.
Yan Nian walked out of the living room and sat on the sofa in a daze.
She texted Yan Qilin: [When will you be back?]
The message fell on deaf ears, and I called again...
There was no movement at the door until the clothes were washed and dried.
Yan Nian turned off the lights and went back to his room to sleep. It was inevitable that he would stay up all night. There was no movement in the next room.
the next day.
Yan Nian thought carefully and went to Zhou Ran's office.
He stared at the pen she gave him and said, "Mr. Zhou, I'm going to take a day off tonight."
Zhou Ran hummed without raising his eyelids: "Can't hold on any longer?"
"No, I have something to do." Yan Nian said, "You can also wait for me to come back and pick you up."
Zhou Ran looked up at her. She was dressed casually in a baseball cap, and continued to attend to official business with his eyes lowered. "Leave granted. Go ahead."
As she turned around, Zhou Ran called her, "Wait a moment."
Yan Nian came back and saw him signing with that pen.
Zhou Ran warned: "Whatever you do, be careful!"
Yan Nian stood there for a while, then turned and walked out.
Zhou Ran also raised his head at this time and watched her gently close the door.
Look at the time, it’s 6:05.
…
Yan Nian left Mingyu No. 1 and took a taxi to Piano Mansion.
As soon as I entered the mansion, the receptionist came up to me and said, "Hello, Miss. Which teacher are you looking for?"
Yan Nian raised his head, revealing his eyes beneath his cap: "I'm here to find Wen Ruirui."
The receptionist smiled and glanced behind her: "Oh! Where's her mother?"
Yan Nian curved her lips and said, "I'll be there in a moment."
The receptionist nodded and said, "She's in that room over there. She's in class right now. You can sit in the hall for a while."
Yan Nian nodded: "I'll go over and take a look."
After perfunctorily dealing with the front desk, Yan Nian quickly found Wen Ruirui's classroom. At this time, she was the only one sitting there practicing the piano.
It seems that he is a beginner, and his hand coordination is not very good. If he moves any faster, things will get messed up immediately.
There was no teacher inside, so Yan Nian stepped in.
