Chapter 590 Quasimodo's Heart (1)
Seoul.
Office.
"Shi Yi, what are you doing? Can't you see I'm putting on lipstick? Every time I ask you to buy afternoon tea, you look so reluctant, as if we're forcing you to do it." The female office lady in a sleeveless vest dress accused her without even raising her head. At the same time, she used several tissues to wipe off the lipstick on her face that had spread beyond her lips.
The girl she accused lowered her head deeply, her long hair obscuring her facial expression, but if you noticed that she was still holding a bunch of milk tea and bread, you would definitely find that her hands were shaking slightly because of guilt.
The other three people sitting in the office were either gloating or indifferent when she was talking. In short, no one offered a helping hand to the girl.
"Look at you, you don't know anything except being young. You're not good-looking either. How do you want us to teach you to be a good person?" When the female office lady stood up in her high heels, the fat on her belly shook unconsciously. She still didn't realize it, and thought she was very charming, so she flirted with the young boy sitting in the corner. The young boy had to quickly lower his head and "concentrate" on his own work.
"Okay, Shiyi has worked hard to bring things to everyone." Huang Lixing came out of the bathroom, and he knew without knowing the whole story that Wang Linyu was making things difficult for the little girl. This kind of drama has happened every day in the office since the little girl took office.
"Deputy, you see, it's really not that I want to make things difficult for her, but she doesn't know how to be polite at all. She put the afternoon tea she bought directly on my desk without asking me." Wang Linyu's fat pig hand was about to reach Huang Lixing. Huang Lixing dodged to the side and said seriously: "This is the company."
Wang Linyu took her hand back in disappointment, and imitated the girl in her early twenties to pout and act cute, saying: "The representative is still caring."
"Since the afternoon tea is here, everyone should enjoy it quickly." After saying that, Huang Lixing walked quickly to his office. He had just broken up and had no interest in women's seduction. What's more, he was talking to a woman who was much older than him, had a bad temper, and was not very capable at work.
"Thank you, Representative." Wang Linyu stared at his back as he left, secretly infatuated.
The shirt that was ironed so that there were no wrinkles, the glasses with gold wire frames, the straight suit pants, the slender and powerful hands, the gentle but intimidating smile, this was the other half of her dreams. Unfortunately, the representative already had a fiancée.
"Sister Linyu, we have to get ready." The fatter girl, Kato Kaori, had already taken her share from Shi Yi.
Jin Xianzi, who was wearing gorgeous makeup, took her share and sat back in her seat.
Only Han Ruizhe politely thanked Shi Yi and paid her the money.
Wang Linyu looked down at the girl who came from China like herself, with envy and jealousy in her eyes that she herself didn't know.
This was her sixteenth year in Korea, and she finally got an office. After graduating from university, she should have chosen a life like the people around her - work, get married, have children, and watch her marriage come to an end, but she gritted her teeth and borrowed money from the bank and spent a high price to find an agent to come to Korea to work. She didn't know Korean, and her life was very difficult when she first arrived in Korea. The jobs she found were very low-end, and she could only live in the cheapest and most shabby houses, sharing a house with a lot of men and women of unknown identities. She was terrified every day when she returned home. She didn't dare to fall in love, didn't dare to accept other people's invitations to go out, didn't dare to contact her old friends, and even didn't dare to go back to China
. This kind of life didn't start to improve until the eighth year. But this Chinese girl, as soon as she arrived, she joined the company that she had worked so hard for so many years to get into
. She was so ugly but she was still appreciated by the leader and worked as an advertising planner. Even at a young age, she could live in a single apartment without having to worry about sharing a house. She, Wang Linyu, really didn't understand what was wrong with this world, and it was so unfair.
She shook her legs that hurt from standing and was about to sit down, but the girl returned to her office without her permission. She was furious, pointing her finger at the girl's back and yelling, "Choi Shiyi, this is your upbringing. You're thinking of leaving before you apologize to me, right?"
"Now it's break time. The law stipulates that people have the right to rest freely."
This was the first time the cowardly girl had argued with her in the company. She was furious, "Choi Shiyi, please understand that there is a hierarchy between us."
Kato Kaori, Kim Hyun-ja, and Han Ruizhe all turned to look at her because of her words. Kim Hyun-ja, who had been watching coldly, suddenly spoke, "Wang Linyu, if seniority is important, I seem to be a veteran of the company."
The smile on Wang Linyu's face turned into flattering in a second, "Yes, yes, I'm listening to what Miss Hyun-ja said."
Han Ruizhe and Kato Kaori curled their lips at the same time. After looking at each other, they looked sad. They couldn't understand why Wang Linyu, who was also Chinese, would make things difficult for Cui Shiyi.
"Since you are listening, I will talk to the others and settle all the expenses that Choi Shiyi paid for things. Give it all to her before leaving work tonight." Jin Xianzi took out a stack of Korean won from the drawer and placed it on Choi Shiyi's desk in front of everyone. She was afraid that the wind would blow the money away, so she even put a stapler on it.
Kato Kaori felt ashamed. How could she follow others to be so uneducated and take others' kindness for granted? She hurriedly counted out the extra money from her bag, took it and handed it to Shiyi, and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I made you wait so long."
"Thank you." Shiyi bowed to her. She felt guilty and quickly returned to her desk.
Han Ruizhe's expression did not change much. He was a newcomer who came into the company at the same time as Choi Shiyi. He knew how difficult it was for newcomers, so he always gave her the money on time.
Wang Linyu felt pained at the thought of having to pay for more than two months of afternoon tea. She tried to force a smile and looked at the girl standing next to her, and said softly: "Shiyi, you shouldn't take this little money seriously, right?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the expressions of everyone in the office became subtle.
"Don't get me wrong, seniors. It's not that I don't want to pay. It's just..." Wang Linyu thought of the LV bag she just bought in installments, and she hasn't paid off the debt yet. If she pays with the little cash she has now, she will be tight on money during this period.
"Since Miss Linyu doesn't mean that, just pay the money back." Kato Kaori raised her voice with a red face. This is also the first time she has stood up for others since she was a child.
