Chapter 110 Are You in a Hurry?



"That's great. I've never eaten the food you cook. Now that you say that, Auntie will be waiting at home."

Fu Shuxian never expected that Song Shishi could cook.

Which girl in their No. 1 Yard is not spoiled?

Apart from those who have some talents, who can do housework and cook?

They are all spoiled girls who can do nothing without their parents.

"It's getting late. Xiaoqi still needs to study, right? We won't disturb you."

As she spoke, Song Shishi pulled Xu Li up.

Speaking of Meng Xiaoqi's studies, Fu Shuxian no longer tried to keep them. She sent them out with a smile and politely asked them to come and play when they were free in the future.

The next morning, Song Shishi made breakfast and went to work as usual.

...

...

Before Zheng Peilan got up, Xu Li had already cleaned the house.

Song Zhenhua also gets up very early. After having breakfast, he would sit on the sofa and read the newspaper for a while, waiting for the driver to pick him up before going to the army.

He naturally also saw the busy Xu Li, but he said nothing.

Apart from accompanying Zheng Peilan to buy groceries today, Xu Li basically stayed at home studying the study materials prepared for her by Song Shishi.

Without a teacher, she found it difficult to learn on her own.

Basically, she had to wait for Song Shishi to come back to teach her mathematics, and as for Chinese, she only had a vague understanding of many contents.

But even so, Xu Li still studied very hard.

Today is Song Shishi’s first official day working in the Translation Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Although there are only four people in their translation room, the important thing is that they all get along well with each other.

"This is your work ID. You can ask me if you have any questions at work."

Xie Youan placed her work ID on the workbench and pushed it in front of her.

The work permit has the seal of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and her black and white photo.

The photo was taken when she was in school.

She looks a little immature in the photo.

"OK, thanks!"

Xie Youan assigned her a lot of translation work, and the documents took up half of the desk.

"It's already the end of the month. You just need to hand these documents to me before the end of next month."

After saying that, Xie Youan carefully observed Song Shishi's expression, fearing that she would mistakenly think that he was deliberately making things difficult for her.

Therefore, Xie Youan deliberately lowered his voice to explain.

"After all, you have just arrived, so you need some time to adapt to the environment. So I will reduce your workload by half for the first month. Once you have adapted, it won't be too late to do the same as everyone else's workload."

Song Shishi turned her head and glanced at the workbenches of He Xiangzhe and Mo Mingfei.

The documents were piled up together, almost covering the entire table.

"Team leader, you are too biased. Why didn't we get this treatment when we first came here?"

"That's right, we are all jealous."

He Xiangzhe and Mo Mingfei started to make a noise. Xie Youan pursed his lips and smiled, then turned around and glanced at them.

Seeing them calm down, he turned around and said, "They just like to joke around, don't take it to heart."

"Yes, I know."

Song Shishi nodded, but didn't show any concern.

The two of them were speechless, and it was a little awkward. Xie Youan cleared his throat twice and said, "Then you go ahead and do your work."

"OK."

Song Shishi responded and lowered her head to start flipping through the documents.

With so much work to do, she really needed some time to adjust.

She took this job mainly to return to the city, but the monthly salary was only about 60 yuan.

As her mother Zheng Peilan said, she would not be able to raise the remaining payment for the house within a year with her monthly salary.

But in order to stay in Beijing, she couldn't lose this job.

At noon, Xie Youan and others asked her to have lunch together, but Song Shishi refused.

She had brought some food with her in the morning, and all she had to do was blanch it in hot water.

On Song Shishi's first day at work, she stayed at the workbench almost the entire day without moving away.

She went through all the documents Xie Youan gave her today.

Put the important and urgent ones in the seat closest to her, and then move them to the back row.

Each document has a deadline marked on it, so it's easy to sort them out.

Xie Youan only came over in the middle to pour her a cup of hot water, took a look at her work progress, and never disturbed her again.

Also because of Song Shishi's serious attitude towards work, He Xiangzhe and Mo Mingfei never joked again.

When Song Shishi heard Mo Mingfei shout "It's time to get off work", she raised her head from the pile of documents.

She looked at her watch. It was already past five in the afternoon and it was time to go home from get off work.

After putting the documents on the table into her cabinet behind her and locking it, Song Shishi packed her things and prepared to leave.

Song Shishi was standing at the bus stop. The bus back to Courtyard No. 1 hadn't arrived yet, so she was afraid that she would not have enough time to go back and cook dinner today.

Suddenly a car horn sounded. She looked up subconsciously and saw Xie Youan rolling down the window and waving at her.

Song Shishi thought that Xie Youan had some work matters that he had not yet explained to her, so she walked to the car, bent down slightly, and looked at him through the window.

"Get in the car, I'll take you back."

"Thank you, but no thanks."

Apart from work, Song Shishi didn't want to have too much involvement with Xie Youan.

This also means that she doesn't want to owe Xie Youan any favor.

After saying that, Song Shishi turned around and walked back, standing at the bus stop again.

Xie Youan frowned, opened the car door and wanted to chase after him, but just as he stepped one foot out of the car, a shrill horn sounded behind him.

Xie Youan looked back and saw that he was blocking someone else's way. He glanced at Song Shishi again.

Seeing that Song Shishi didn't even glance at him, Xie Youan reluctantly got back into the car and drove away.

Xie Youan's car drove away, and Song Shishi just breathed a sigh of relief when another car stopped in front of her.

Before Song Shishi could react, Meng Xunzhou came out of the cab.

"Let's go."

The corners of Meng Xunzhou's lips curved up, and he was obviously in a good mood.

Song Shishi got in the car and asked, "Are we going back to the compound?"

"I'll take you to dinner first, and then we'll go see your house."

Meng Xunzhou spoke so naturally, as if the house was his. His level of care about it was even greater than that of Song Shishi.

Meng Xunzhou took Song Shishi to a state-owned restaurant, ordered two dishes, and left after eating.

"Are you in a hurry?"

Song Shishi saw that he was walking very fast and it was really difficult for her to follow him, so she couldn't help but ask.

Meng Xunzhou paused and turned around suddenly.

"ah!"

Song Shishi didn't expect him to stop and turn around, and her nose was hit and hurt.

She frowned, covered her nose, and looked up to meet Meng Xunzhou's gaze.

"What are you doing?"

"What happened? Did you hit your nose?"

As he spoke, Meng Xunzhou raised his hand to move her hand away.

Song Shishi waved her hands and said in a muffled voice, "It's okay, it's okay, let's go quickly, we won't be able to see anything when it gets dark."

I felt a warmth in my palms.

It's over, she seems to have a nosebleed.

Song Shishi tilted her head back and forced back the tears that had just formed in her eyes.

It would be so embarrassing to cry at this time.

What was there for Meng Xunzhou not to understand about her action?

He immediately picked her up.

Song Shishi was so frightened that she lost her voice and covered her nose, not knowing how to react.

It was not until Meng Xunzhou carried her into the car that she regained her voice.

Seeing Meng Xunzhou's frowning eyebrows, he said weakly, "It's just a little bleeding, it's not a big deal."

Meng Xunzhou acted as if he didn't hear it.
