Chapter 198 I Don’t Want to Get Involved



The next two days were uneventful, with boring commute to and from get off work.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, Hu Xiaoman was sitting in the office reading a book when he heard someone knocking on the door.

She hadn't heard any knocks on the office door in days and was quite surprised for a moment.

"Come in."

Director Jin walked in with a tired look on his face. When he saw Hu Xiaoman, he smiled and said, "Director Hu."

"Director Jin is back! Thank you for your hard work." Hu Xiaoman walked over with a smile, and the two of them sat down.

She raised her hand to pour a glass of water and placed it on the table.

"How was it? Did the trip go smoothly?"

Although she had already made arrangements, she didn't go with them because she didn't know what might go wrong.

Director Jin nodded, sighed, and said, "It went smoothly, but it was two days late. If the goods are good this time, they said they will order again in the future."

This is good news. After all, everyone likes long-term trade, and it is also a good opportunity to earn foreign exchange.

There is so little export trade now, it is very difficult to catch one.

Hu Xiaoman also knew about this. She asked, "Have you finished reporting to the factory director?"

"Well, I just came here after finishing the report." Director Jin looked obviously tired, and he was also tired from riding in the car these two days.

Not to mention the situation in Haicheng, I guess he goes out to work every day.

Hu Xiaoman was satisfied. "Then you go back and rest for two days, and I'll continue working here."

Director Jin did not refuse. She should indeed rest for two days, but the last time Hu Xiaoman was away for nearly a month, she did not get any rest. It seemed that she should be allowed to rest for a few days after she came back.

After everyone left, Hu Xiaoman couldn't help but sigh. He could finally rest.

It’s so boring staying here these days, I might as well go out for a walk.

But she is the only one in the entire office, so she can't just go out. Otherwise, if she really needs to find them for something, what should she do if there is no one around?

In the afternoon, Hu Xiaoman got off work and walked on the road to go out with everyone.

She accidentally saw Director Chen and Director Liang leaving together.

These days, the two of them do often walk together, and they are always in a hurry.

It seems that they went out to discuss something.

I guess they don’t want to give up easily on importing the equipment this time.

Otherwise, it would seem wrong to go out so frequently.

Hu Xiaoman turned around and saw Director Ren walking in front of him. He asked if this person was involved in this matter.

She didn't know, but she didn't need to know.

Because she had decided beforehand that she didn't want to get involved, it didn't matter to her whether she knew how many people were involved or not.

Two days later, Director Jin and other staff members also returned.

"Director Hu, you should go back and rest starting today." Director Jin came to the office and said, "You didn't rest last time you came back. Leave it to us for the next few days."

It just so happened that I had work today, and quite a lot of it.

Of course, that’s all the work for a month.

The last time Director Jin and his team left, they had finished all the work, leaving her with nothing to do.

Now that she is resting and not doing any work, it seems like she is just slacking off.

"I've been idle all day and haven't done any serious work!" Hu Xiaoman said with a helpless smile.

Director Jin laughed when he heard this. "Why haven't you worked? Without you in this foreign trade business, I'm afraid our department will have to disband next year."

There is something wrong with what he said. After all, sometimes if you can get an order, the factory will pay more attention to it.

If you do nothing, no one will remember your contribution.

Hu Xiaoman didn't insist either. Why not take a rest?

Director Jin is also a talented person, so he gave her a week-long vacation to go wherever she wanted to play.

Hu Xiaoman left work with her bag during working hours.

I have to say, the reason she can be so leisurely is because she has a good colleague!

Director Jin is a really nice person. Apart from major matters, he never lets her worry about other things.

Hu Xiaoman went home early and looked at the time. It was just past ten in the morning.

Can’t you sleep and eat so early?

After thinking about it, she realized that she hadn't been to the space for the past few days. Except for cooking, she basically didn't go in.

Thinking that she hadn't taken a shower for a long time, she felt itchy all over.

After entering the space and taking a shower, Hu Xiaoman ate fruit while lying on the table and looking at his mobile phone.

I returned it to her carefully along the way and told her to keep an eye out for any old items that might be suitable as birthday gifts.

It is best to give something suitable as a gift to an elder on his birthday.

After thinking about it, Hu Xiaoman took a look around the space, but he couldn't see anything suitable as a birthday gift.

Wow, there are more than a thousand items, but not a single one is presentable.

There was something suitable among the things Lu Jianghe gave her, but she just wouldn't take it out.

Those things are not hers. Even though the two of them are married, she should still remember that the things belong to her.

There’s nothing good to say at the moment, she replied.

Let him look for it carefully on his own, and she will look for it on her side. Don't rely on me when the time comes. It would be bad if I can't find it.

I just replied immediately, saying I got it, and that was it.

Hu Xiaoman turned off his phone and went to eat something.

Unexpectedly, she heard the sound of a door opening outside, so she hurried out.

Fortunately, I put on my clothes and combed my hair after taking a shower. There was nothing unusual when I came out, so I felt relieved.

Lu Jianghe came in with a net bag and asked her when he saw her, "Why didn't you go to work today? Didn't we leave together?"

If they hadn't left together, he would have thought that this person didn't go to work today at all.

Hu Xiaoman replied, "No, the deputy director of the unit is done with his vacation, and I didn't take a break last time, so they gave me a few days off."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jianghe understood. So that's how it is.

He didn't ask any more questions and went to cook with the net bag.

Hu Xiaoman stopped him and said, "I'll go cook. I've only had a bite to eat these past two days and haven't cooked properly."

In fact, Lu Jianghe has not been working in the afternoons these days, so he cooks.

Either you cook noodles or you cook noodles.

If he continued eating like this, Hu Xiaoman felt like he was going to turn into noodles.

Since she didn't want to eat anymore, she just took over the cooking task and stopped Lu Jianghe from doing it.

Lu Jianghe nodded, "Then I'll make a fire for you."

In fact, he had eaten enough noodles, but he felt that his wife was tired from work, so he prepared the meal in advance.

The two of them worked quite quickly together and the meal was ready in less than an hour.

There was stir-fried bok choy with garlic, a winter melon and pork ribs soup, and the staple food was rice.

Hu Xiaoman had put the spare ribs in the kitchen in advance, and Lu Jianghe bought some bok choy and put it in the noodles when he was about to cook them.

After finally having a normal meal, both of them enjoyed it very much.

It seems that cooking really cannot be sloppy, and you still have to try your best to cook well.
