Chapter 312: Expose Her
Song Cun replied casually: "It's related to work."
After saying that, she lowered her head and blew out the candle in one breath.
The room suddenly fell into darkness. The curtains on the south side of the living room were not completely closed, and only a little moonlight came in. Song Cun could only see the outline of the upper body of the man sitting opposite him.
The light switch was on the wall behind Liang Zhouheng. He could reach it by stretching his arm without having to lift his butt. When he turned off the light just now, he did it very skillfully. Now that the candle was blown out, as usual, he should turn on the light.
But one second, two seconds, five seconds passed and he didn't move at all.
Song Cun didn't have the nerve to tell him to do anything, so she had to get up and turn on the light.
He suddenly called out to her, "Don't turn on the light. Can't you see me? I don't have night blindness. It's fine like this. Quiet."
She was stunned, and her eyes met his through the dim light.
Song Cun knew that he had a bar. Although she had never been to a bar, she roughly knew that it was a place with thunderous music and bright lights that made it impossible to open your eyes.
Compared to all the debauchery, how could the light in the living room disturb him?
The dim space made Song Cun completely panic-stricken and at a loss. She stood there, feeling truly uneasy.
Instead, he looked as calm and composed as ever.
"How are you adapting to the job? Are your colleagues easy to get along with?"
He suddenly asked about her work. She slowly sat back down, imitating his calm demeanor. "Everyone's pretty good, and the workload isn't too intense. I can adapt."
“How does the department manager treat you?”
"fine."
"How is it?"
Song Cun was slightly stunned and looked up at him.
The two of them sat facing each other in silence in the dim light. Many things could have been hidden well, but she felt embarrassed as if he had seen through her at a glance.
Department manager Qin Hong seemed determined to get rid of her so that she would give up. During this period of time, Song Cun had not had an easy time in the department. Other colleagues normally got off work at 6:30, but she had to work overtime until 8-9 o'clock every day to complete the excess workload.
But all these were within her tolerance. She had made a pledge with Qin Hong. She wanted to prove with her strength that she was not a hopeless Liu Adou. She wanted to change Qin Hong's prejudice against her.
Song Cun didn't want to bother Liang Zhouheng with these little things. She didn't want to rely on him for everything, but she didn't want to lie to him either. After a brief silence, she said, "I got to the Product Planning Department thanks to your connections. In the entire headquarters, this department has the least overtime and the highest performance bonuses. People from other departments are eager to transfer in. I'm new here, so it's inevitable that others will look at me with tinted glasses, but I can think it through. I've already taken such a big advantage, so what if I suffer a little grievance? It's not painful, I can totally bear it. Brother Liang, you don't have to worry about me. I'm already very satisfied."
"Is your way of enduring this to swallow your anger and force yourself to work overtime every day?"
Song Cun couldn't understand how he knew she was working overtime. Could it be that he went to the human resources department to check her attendance records?
After a two-second pause, she decisively corrected him, "I didn't swallow my anger. I volunteered to work overtime. I just got here, so it won't do me any harm to learn more and do more. Anyway, I don't have much to do when I get home from get off work, so I'll just consider it as earning some extra overtime pay."
She smiled embarrassedly, but there was no smile on Liang Zhouheng's face.
