Wu Siqi stopped writing and held it in his hand, glancing at her, "It's not so early, what's wrong?" The white light of the computer screen was reflected in his glasses.
Xu Tingting: "We said we would treat the teacher to a meal during the last event, but we haven't had it yet."
Her eyes were eager. Wu Siqi sighed and said softly, "Tingting, I'm not special, and neither are you. It's just a meal. It doesn't matter whether you eat it or not, right?"
"But, teacher, can't I be special?" Xu Tingting turned her face to the side, leaned on the table and looked at Wu Siqi in front of the computer screen.
Wu Siqi said in the most gentle tone and expression: "No."
With a truly cruel smile, she pursed her lips and said, "Wu Bingshan, it's just a meal, what are you so afraid of? Can't you just treat it as a celebration for my promotion?"
Using a pen to pry her head away, Wu Siqi saved the computer document, shut it down, put the computer into sleep mode, took off his glasses and put them in the drawer, then turned around and said, "Wu Bingshan, let's go eat together, okay?"
Great! Xu Tingting stood up and waited for Wu Siqi to pack up with a smile. "Teacher, you are really a very good person. You are considerate, gentle, kind, charming and beautiful."
"That's fine, no need to please me." Wu Siqi slung his bag over his shoulder and walked to the front.
I pressed the elevator button, and Zhang Li came over with a gossipy look on her face. "Siqi, didn't you just say you wanted to stay overtime? You're so efficient."
"Good evening, Tingting. I haven't congratulated you on your promotion yet."
Wu Siqi: "Well, it went relatively smoothly."
Xu Tingting: "Thank you, Team Zhang. I haven't officially been promoted yet. The documents are still being drafted."
Ding sounded, and Zhang Li entered the elevator first. "Isn't it a done deal? You seem to be only 24 years old, and you have a bright future. Siqi, you are really good at supporting the younger generation."
"She works harder." Wu Siqi said calmly, ignoring the teasing in the other person's tone.
Three people stood in three corners of the elevator. Xu Tingting was the younger one. "Not really. Only when the teacher guides me well can I learn well. I will develop differently with different leaders, right, Team Zhang?"
Zhang Li's eyes wandered between the two of them, "Yes, you have a good relationship, and the whole company knows it." As she was about to go to the first floor, she turned to look at Wu Siqi, and seeing that he had no intention of lifting his foot, she smiled again.
She said, "Siqi, aren't we going together today?"
Wu Siqi glanced at Xu Tingting and felt that Zhang Li's tone was too teasing. He smiled awkwardly, "Yeah, hehe."
Zhang Li walked out of the elevator and said jokingly, "See you tomorrow, both of you."
The troublemaker left, leaving the two people in the elevator embarrassed.
Xu Tingting spoke first: "It's time for the teacher."
Wu Siqi responded and followed her.
Xu Tingting's car is very girly, with pink leather seats, cute ornaments, and floral aromatherapy. She said it was a college graduation gift from her parents.
Wu Siqi felt that a young lady with a smooth life was so optimistic on the first day after she started working that she didn't even realize that she was being scolded during a meeting.
As she said, she had not given Xu Tingting much help all along. She only gave a few more reminders when necessary, but she did not do much else.
Xu Tingting likes to talk while driving. If you ignore her, she will sing along with the car music. Wu Siqi is a little afraid of riding in her car. She often reminds her, such as saying now: "Drive carefully first."
"Oh." Xu Tingting put away her casual attitude, gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, and drove seriously.
It took about ten minutes to drive out of the company. There was some traffic jam and the car waited for two red lights at this intersection. Xu Tingting called her and was about to speak.
Wu Siqi's phone rang. The caller ID showed an unfamiliar number with no notes. She picked up the phone and said, "Hello, this is Fan Yu."
Wu Siqi's face turned serious, and his tone was no longer lazy: "Hello, Teacher Fan, what can I do for you?"
"Your promotional funds haven't arrived yet. I'd like to ask what went wrong?" The voice on the other end of the phone was cold.
Wu Siqi: "Yes, I haven't transferred it yet. Today, the finance department said that your account can't deposit the money, so I asked you to confirm it. Since Teacher Fan called me, it's the same as confirming it with you."
Fan Yu responded and reported her account information again. Wu Siqi took out a notebook from her bag and wrote down the new account information. "Thank you, Teacher Fan. We will arrange the payment as soon as possible."
"Yeah." Without leaving any room for negotiation, Fan Yu hung up the phone.
People who play music have their own personalities. After adding this number to the contact list, Wu Siqi sent the new account information to the finance department, and one thing was solved. She didn't need to look for Yi Ning. Haha, it was a good thing.
Holding the phone in her hand, Wu Siqi stared at the brake lights in front of her in a daze until the brake lights went out and traffic resumed flowing, then she came back to her senses.
It was just an ordinary dinner. Xu Tingting didn't say anything special. She simply chatted with Wu Siqi about her feelings in the new working environment. "Teacher, I'm a little scared."
Wu Siqi looked at her with chopsticks in hand. Xu Tingting knew that she preferred Chinese food, so she took her to a very famous private restaurant in the city. The environment there was elegant and the dishes were exquisite and delicious.
"What are you afraid of?"
Xu Tingting picked up a piece of greens with her chopsticks and put it in her bowl. "I'm worried that I won't be able to lead the team well, and that my decisions will lead everyone astray."
Xu Tingting: "In the past, my teachers always helped me with everything I did. Now I am afraid to lead a team on my own."
Wu Siqi put down his chopsticks, filled her cup with tea, and then filled his own before saying, "I've never covered for you in any way. You've always done a good job, never gotten into trouble, never lost anything, and you've been involved in so many activities and have gained a lot of experience."
"It's just being a team leader. You are fully capable of doing that."
"At the meeting, all four team leaders recommended candidates. Your selection proves that everyone in the company recognizes your abilities. But it's normal to be afraid. I was about the same age as you when I was promoted to team leader, and I was nervous too."
Wu Siqi looked serious, a smile flickering across his face as if he was remembering something from the past. "I'm not from this field, and I've only been in the industry for two years. I was suddenly pushed into the role of team leader. Back then, I was much more hesitant than you are now. You're from this field, and you've been involved in big projects over the past two years. Don't be afraid."
She raised her teacup and said, "And now, congratulations to our team leader Xu Tingting on her promotion."
"Thank you, teacher." The sound of toasting cups was heard during the banquet.
Neither of them brought up the topic they discussed in the office, and they quietly let the past go. One didn't want to expose it, and the other didn't want to lose it. This is the best relationship, neither too far nor too close.
After dinner, Xu Tingting sent Wu Siqi home. The car stopped at the gate of the community. Wu Siqi opened the car door and Xu Tingting got out. She took two quick steps and stood in front of her.
Xu Tingting opened her arms and asked for a hug, "Teacher, can you wish me a promotion again?"
Wu Siqi raised his hand and flicked her head: "Don't push your luck."
She closed the car door with her backhand and took a step back. "I'm going back. Drive carefully."
Then he turned and walked towards the security booth.
Watch the whole process. The cat squatting next to the gatepost nimbly slipped into the grass and disappeared into the night.
After opening the security door, the room was dark and unusually quiet. Wu Siqi raised her hand to turn on the light, but the little black cat sheriff was not waiting for her at the entrance as usual.
She kicked off her shoes and walked into the house barefoot. The house was very quiet, the sofa was empty, and she turned on the light in the room.
Gone.
The cat is missing.
Wu Siqi hurriedly took out her cell phone and opened the monitoring software, which showed that the device had been disconnected. She walked quickly to the TV cabinet and found that the data cable of the surveillance camera had been bitten off.
She picked up the disconnected data cable and remained silent.
A damp draft blew in through the half-open window; it was the window she had closed before leaving the house.
Okay.
She threw the broken surveillance camera into the trash can and walked into the bathroom, where the sound of water dripping could be heard.
