Chapter 75 Chapter 75 Suddenly I saw a figure, frightened...

After the two finished their meal, they cleaned up the dishes and prepared to take them to the recycling area, which was next to another door.

So, passing by a small, specially partitioned cubicle, Xia Li took a quick look and saw a table of people sitting inside. Among them were two of the people she had interviewed. Since they had met before during the interview, it was a brief encounter, so Xia Li recognized them.

Her memory was pretty good, and she wasn't that nervous during the interview, so all the interviewers saw it clearly.

Think about it, anyone who can sit in the same row with Wen Ying for an interview should not be an unknown person.

Wen Ying also walked over to Xia Li, wanting to ask why she was standing there. But when she looked at the direction Xia Li was looking, she realized she still had something to understand.

The girl must be confused. She looked at the people inside and sighed calmly.

The people facing them in the compartment seemed to have seen them as well. What puzzled Xia Li was that they just stared at each other for a few seconds and then turned their eyes away without any greeting to Wen Ying, not even a glance.

Wen Ying seemed to have gotten used to it. There was no expression on her face. She greeted Xia Li and continued walking forward with her.

Xia Li didn't dare to ask more questions. From what happened just now, it was obvious that there was a conflict among the leadership of the factory. As a new follower in the factory, she couldn't afford to offend anyone. She decided to wait and see what happened.

The thought of this gave Xia Li a sudden headache. She'd only been here a day, and already she was seeing the first signs of a power struggle. While her current status and position clearly meant she was close to Director Wen, she simply wanted a promotion and a raise.

After making a slight grimace, Charlie quickly chased after him.

Forget it, since Wen Ying didn’t tell her about this now, she would just pretend she didn’t know.

In the evening, Xia Li continued to sort through the materials in her room. The factory director would be ready to use them in a few days. Wen Ying had given her ample time, but Xia Li wanted to work harder and get the materials to her as soon as possible, so she continued to work after dinner these past few days.

"Knock knock." Two knocks on the door.

Xia Pingzhi walked in with a bowl of food.

She saw Charlie still sitting at the table with the necessary documents piled up beside her, just like the previous two days, and she suddenly felt distressed.

"Hey? Aunt, you're here?" Xia Li raised her head and saw that her aunt was holding something in her hand, so she quickly stood up.

"Didn't you say you don't have to help me make things anymore? It's very troublesome. I'm going to sleep soon!" Xia Li looked helpless.

She didn't want her aunt to work so hard. She didn't do anything. She just sat in front of the table and worked for a while. Why did she need to eat a midnight snack?

Charlie took it and held it in her hand, then asked her aunt to sit down. Seeing that her aunt was still staring at her, Charlie could only turn the chair around to face her aunt.

"What is it today? Hahaha, it's this!" Charlie stirred the soup in the bowl with a spoon.

It has been a long time since I last drank it. In their hometown, parents always cook a sweet fruit soup for their children in winter. There are many fruits in it, such as apples, oranges, pears, etc. The children all like to eat it very much.

Especially when the weather is cold, it is best to eat a bowl of it after dinner, so that you can have a sweet dream at night.

Xia Li hasn't had this for a long time. Two days ago, her aunt made her fried eggs and chicken soup wontons. Unexpectedly, she made this in a new way today.

"Try it! I even put some white fungus in it and stewed it for dinner." Xia Pingzhi looked at Xia Li and said, "You're still working every night after you get home. How can you be so unruly? I think you're even busier than your boss!"

There was a hint of complaint in Xia Pingzhi's words, but this complaint was not directed at Xia Li, but at her unit.

"I thought this job you changed to would be easier than your previous one, but I didn't expect it to be even harder. People say it's getting better, but why is my job getting more tiring? You can't keep going like this. You're a mother now, and your health isn't what it used to be."

Xia Li scooped a spoonful of fruit pulp and ate it, then smiled and said to Xia Pingzhi, "Aunt, you guessed wrong. I didn't tell you that our factory director works even harder than men. She's so hardworking. On my first day at lunch, she took me to the director's office. And you know what, if I hadn't been paying attention, she would have been so busy that she forgot to eat lunch."

So, since she can take the position of factory director at such a young age, those male leaders who sit in small cubicles and eat special meals every day still have to give way to Wen Ying, right?

After observing and learning for a few days, Xia Li has been completely conquered by Wen Ying's personal charm and work ability. She has decided to follow Wen Ying wholeheartedly.

If even someone like Wenying can't make this factory better and give her a future and opportunities, then how can others do it?

Once she made up her mind, Xia Li felt that the harder work was nothing, as she would fight for her future!

So, she brought some of the work back home to do, mainly to submit it to her boss as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, this made her aunt distressed. Her aunt was worried that she would be tired from working overtime at night, so she brought her food every day. She tried to dissuade her the first time, saying that she didn't feel tired, and if she continued to eat like this every day, she would only get fatter.

Xia Pingzhi watched Xia Li eat and noticed the clothes she was wearing. She suddenly remembered the weather forecast on TV tonight and said to her, "Remember to take out your thick clothes later. It's already what month it is, and you're still wearing so little. The weather forecast says it's going to get colder in the next couple of days."

Charlie nodded. She was wearing a sweater and would take out her windbreaker and wear it tomorrow.

"Hey? Aunt, where's Jiangzai? Is he asleep already?" Xia Li asked.

"It's so late, he's already asleep. You know, he's just a kid, and he has to go to kindergarten tomorrow," Xia Ping replied.

Xia Li smiled and told her aunt about the factory-run kindergarten Wen Ying had mentioned. Xia Pingzhi waved her hands and shouted, "Forget it! Forget it!"

She said, "Although I have good intentions and am worried that you won't be able to take care of the child, look at yourself now, you are busy like a top every day. How can I trust you to take care of the child? I'm afraid you might forget the child at the kindergarten and come back alone."

Xia Pingzhi glanced at her, her expression seemed to be asking Xia Li, "Am I right?"

Charlie didn't dare to refute, she felt guilty because she might really do such a thing.

With an embarrassed smile, Xia Li lowered her head slightly, looked at the soup in the bowl, and continued to scoop and drink.

"Besides, your son probably doesn't want to go either. He has made good friends there. And Fang Nan, the boy from the Fang family, heard that Jiang Zai is in that kindergarten and he is making a fuss at home about going there too. I guess the formalities are almost done now." Xia Pingzhi added.

Charlie was surprised. "Huh? It's already mid-term, and we can still enroll?"

Xia Pingzhi didn't find this surprising. As she got older, she saw more. "Don't kindergarten owners make money? They just pay a little more tuition and get their children in. It's the children's business."

After saying that, Xia Pingzhi saw Xia Li finally scoop out the dry parts, and without using a spoon, she directly picked up the bowl and drank the soup. Then she smacked her lips and said, "Delicious!"

Xia Pingzhi saw this and burst out laughing. She slapped Xia Li on the back and cursed her lightly.

"Making trouble!"

Then he reached out and prepared to take the bowl from Charlie's hand.

Xia Li quickly moved her arms behind her and said, "Auntie, Auntie, please go and rest. I'll be there. I just need to go to the bathroom."

After hearing what Xia Li said, Xia Pingzhi gave up and said, "Okay, when you finish packing, go to bed quickly. Don't stay up too late at night."

Charlie nodded and made repeated assurances.

Xia Pingzhi went back to her room to rest, while Xia Li left the house and went to the kitchen to wash the bowls and spoons, then put them in the cupboard.

After doing all this, turn off the lights and close the door in one go.

Xia Li was not in a hurry to go back to the house at this moment. After finishing her meal and washing the dishes, she sat on the sofa for a while and then went back to her room, and has been busy until now.

My waist is feeling a little uncomfortable, so I'd better not rush back and stay outside for a while.

The weather is getting colder and colder. Looking back on the past six months, Xia Li feels that it has passed so quickly.

When she went back to her hometown, people could still wear skirts at that time. Now, Jiangzi's grandmother must have put on a thick cotton-padded jacket. All these things happened, from bringing Jiangzi over from there to changing her job.

Each one of these was a major event. This time last year, Charlie had never dared to think about it. But now, she had accomplished all of them, in the last six months.

As for her son, he went to kindergarten, learned a lot, and made many new friends. She thought that if Jiang Dong's mother came to see him, she would be surprised.

As for my aunt, her life has become more fulfilling with the company of this little one, Jiangzai, over the past six months. Every time she mentions Jiangzai, she can't help but smile. Before, my aunt was retired and at home, and I had to go to work, so it was impossible for me to be with her all day. Now that she has this little darling by her side, life is becoming more and more enjoyable.

As for herself, Charlie believed that her future was bright and she was full of confidence.

Oh, and there was this guy Jiang Dong. Although Xia Li was frightened by his sudden appearance beside her, at least the scene she had been afraid of did not happen.

Xia Li had to admit that she might have had some misunderstandings about Jiang Dong. She assumed that Jiang Dong hated her to the core and would never let her go. However, she had no intention of changing their current relationship, even though it seemed as if Jiang Dong still had some feelings for her. But, after all, things were fine as they were. No matter what, the fact that he was the child's father would never change.

In short, she is generally satisfied with the current situation and hopes things will get better in the future.

Xia Li walked back and forth in the yard several times, gazing at the stars. When she felt a little cold, she was worried that she would catch a cold and affect her work, so she hurried back into the house.

The next day, Charlie got up, washed and dressed, put on the windbreaker she had taken out last night, and then prepared to go out.

Her movements were gentle, even opening the door gently, carrying her bag and walking out, closing the door again, and locking it with her key. Her movements were also gentle, but if you weren't careful, the iron door would have clanged loudly, waking everyone up.

She could walk around by herself, but she couldn't wake up her aunt and the others because she was old and slept lightly.

Charlie tightened her clothes, lifted the bag on her shoulder, and turned around to go down the stairs.

But suddenly she saw a figure, and she was so scared that she covered her chest.
