Chapter 93 This is Su Nian’s “Golden Thigh”
The design department was filled with the sound of keyboards tapping and drawings flipping in the afternoon, but Zhou Xiaomeng sighed at the spread-out auxiliary material supplier information, as if he was facing a book of incomprehensible books.
Bored, she fingertips the densely packed supplier names on the page, her mind swirling with thoughts: What's the point of memorizing this crappy information? Can I get a promotion or a raise by memorizing the names of countless zipper factories? Are Director Lan and Team Leader Wu teaming up to mess with me? ...
At this moment, the glass door at the office entrance suddenly shook slightly.
Chen Ran walked into the design department. He did not go directly to the director's office, but stood at the entrance and looked around calmly, as if he was inspecting his territory.
Mr. Chen? Zhang Yue, who was reviewing design details with team member Wen Xiaoqiao, recognized the man immediately.
She sat up straight as if she'd been electrified. Her normally normal voice suddenly rose an octave, its trailing syllable soft and sweet. Wen Xiaoqiao's arms immediately broke out in goosebumps. She thought to herself: What possessed the team leader? Why is he so tight all of a sudden?!
Wen Xiaoqiao suppressed her discomfort and looked up. When she saw who was at the door, she immediately realized what was going on - it turned out to be the big boss who came for a surprise inspection. No wonder the team leader turned into a "human sweetheart" in seconds.
She secretly glanced at Director Chen and found that Director Chen's eyes did not even pause when he swept across their area, but looked straight to the other side of the office.
Wen Xiaoqiao was secretly suggesting, "Team Leader, stop acting! The audience isn't even looking at you! You're overdoing it!"
Chen Ran's gaze finally fell on Su Nian, who was busy revising a drawing. Seeing the girl's focused profile and the design drafts spread out on the table, a smile of satisfaction appeared in his eyes, and he walked straight over.
Zhou Xiaomeng was just looking up to get some fresh air when she saw a middle-aged man in a dark shirt walk in. He had a tall and straight figure, and his brows carried the calm aura of a superior.
She stared at the strange man who smiled at Su Nian, thinking quickly in her mind: Judging from his demeanor, he must be a senior executive in the company, perhaps even a powerful figure! Then she looked again and saw that this important figure was walking towards Su Nian's workstation. Thinking of her speculation about Su Nian's "unconventional ways" that morning, Zhou Xiaomeng suddenly had an epiphany -
It's confirmed! This person is Su Nian's "gold thigh"! No wonder she was able to skip the odd jobs and go straight into design!
The more Zhou Xiaomeng thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. Suddenly, she looked at Su Nian with a hint of disdain and disdain: "Humph, what's the point of pretending to be so hard? Isn't it still relying on backdoors?"
Chen Ran walked to Su Nian's side and asked patiently, "How is it? Are there any problems at work? If you have any questions, you can ask Director Lan, or you can ask... me."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Mr. Chen!" Su Nian said repeatedly.
Su Nian was speechless, but inwardly she was screaming, "Stepfather, do you really need to come to me so openly? This will have a terrible impact! Are you afraid that others won't know we're related? Can you be more low-key? My image as an 'independent career woman' is about to break!"
She quickly lowered her head and continued working, expressing her strong desire to "please leave soon" with all her heart, trying as hard as if she was acting out "I don't know the boss well."
Fortunately, Chen Ran seemed to understand what she meant. He left after a moment and then went into the director's office.
The biological father (not the stepfather) thought to himself: This girl, she has no intention of borrowing help from others. Everything I created will be yours in the future, so what are you afraid of? Then he thought again, his daughter has a simple and unpretentious personality and is a good child.
Lan Ting just noticed that Director Chen went to see Su Nian before coming to her office. There was something wrong with this man recently: not only was he so blatantly partial to Su Nian, but the middle-aged lady she saw at her house last time made her even more suspicious - for so many years, there wasn't even a female mosquito around him.
She greeted calmly, "Director Chen!"
"Well, you keep busy, I'll just look around."
Looking at Mr. Chen's back as he walked out, although he was almost fifty years old, he was still tall and straight, and could be called a "blue chip" among middle-aged men.
Lan Ting was stunned and suddenly felt a little unwilling.
If there must be someone by his side, why can't it be me?
After so many years, I thought that Mr. Chen would never fall in love with anyone in his life, and I have let it go.
But recently, Director Chen has obviously shown signs of this again. Strong women are aggressive, and suddenly, she also wants to participate in this game.
Seeing Director Chen leave Su Nian's workstation, Li Yue, who was working at the next workstation, immediately slid over to Su Nian on her gossip chair with a sly grin on her face. "Something's wrong! The big boss is here to give us guidance. This is going to require a lot of focus!"
Su Nian suddenly remembered that she wanted to find out about Director Chen's background, so she lowered her voice and asked, "Stop it! I want to ask you, you've been in the company for so long, have you ever met Director Chen's family?"
"Su Nian, as your half-baked best friend, I have an obligation to remind you not to make any mistakes!" Li Yue said seriously, "Even if Mr. Chen is a bachelor, you, as a married person, must not have any ideas. We must not go astray!"
"Ah? Mr. Chen is really single?" Su Nian lowered her voice, "Don't worry, I have no feelings for you." Seeing that Li Yue didn't believe her, she raised her hand and swore, "I promise! I'm just gossiping!"
"Well, let me tell you, Mr. Chen has never been married. He's truly a golden bachelor."
She leaned close to Su Nian's ear and whispered, "Director Lan probably had feelings for Director Chen before, but was rejected. It's said that this was the only Waterloo in her career."
Su Nian felt a little relieved. As long as he was unmarried, everything would be fine.
"What are you doing?" Fang Xia saw two young girls whispering furtively when passing by, and reminded them with a smile: "Work hard! If you slack off again, your salary will be deducted!" As soon as the words fell, she walked away again.
Seeing Fang Xia leaving, Su Nian thought of that incident again and asked, "By the way, let me ask again, what's going on with Sister Fang Xia? Does she have a boyfriend?"
"She," Li Yue hesitated, "she's such a miserable person. Her life is like a 'heartbreaking novel'."
"How do you say that?"
"She's married, but her husband cheated on her. Fortunately, they don't have any children. I heard they were getting a divorce some time ago. I wonder if they've finalized it?"
What a big melon! Su Nian thought, I'd better pretend I don't know. This company is simply a melon field, you can eat melons anytime and anywhere.
At this time, Lan Ting called Li Yue through the internal phone, and the two onlookers were forced to separate.
When he looked at the time again, it was almost time to get off work. Su Nian couldn't help but sigh: Gossip really ruins things. I accidentally spent an hour fishing.
Looking at Zhou Xiaomeng again, she had already started playing with her mobile phone, and I don’t know who she was sending messages to. Her expression was sometimes coquettish and sometimes mischievous, which was comparable to the face-changing in Sichuan Opera.
Wu Xiao watched from the side and shook his head: This intern is really hard to lead!
