Wall Street Internship
Shan Jiqing was on the verge of collapse and found it difficult to accept this fact.
how so?
It turned out that he was still thinking that the matter of the red cloth should be handled step by step, at least to perform well in front of them, and then find a suitable time to announce the news.
Little did I know that Jian Jianan took the opportunity to explain everything to me when I returned to school.
It was completely beyond Shan Jiqing's imagination and was totally unexpected. If Shan Jiqing hadn't been holding on to the wall, he would have fainted.
Jian Jianan was surprised: "No way, you are not like this because of hearing this news, right? I thought something went wrong with your experiment."
Shan Jiqing paused for a moment before asking, "Then...what did the uncle and aunt say? Did they say anything against it?"
Jian Jianan laughed: "Of course not! You know my parents' personalities. They've always liked you. They've watched you grow up. What's there to worry about?"
"After hearing this news, of course I can only wish you the best!"
Shan Jiqing questioned: "What about Brother Xiaobei?" He always felt that Jian Jiabei would not be the kind of person who would accept reality so quickly!
Jian Jianan said nonchalantly, "My brother, he actually couldn't accept this fact for a moment, but after my persuasion he didn't object. After all, he's quite reasonable. You can rest assured!"
Shan Jiqing: “…”
I just feel uneasy!
Especially when you say that, I feel even more worried. Who knows what big thing you will do to me next?
Shan Jiqing said with difficulty: "But I haven't told my parents about this yet."
Jian Jianan was very relaxed: "It's okay. Isn't it easy to say it? Can't I just make a long-distance call home?"
She comforted her boyfriend, "Don't be so nervous! You have to think positively. Anyway, this has already happened. There's no way to change it. All we can do is accept it. Don't you think so?"
Shan Jiqing was unusually mad: "Then who is the culprit that forced me to accept this?"
He usually has calm and composed emotions, so why does he always have such a dramatic reaction when he meets Jian Jianan?
Jian Jianan felt that Shan Jiqing took their relationship too seriously, and was a little worried about gains and losses, and wanted to do everything to be perfect, but Jian Jianan had a different opinion.
"Let's just enjoy the present moment! The only thing we can grasp is the present moment, so don't think too much. Right now is the perfect situation!"
Shan Jiqing didn't say anything. Jian Jianan actually knew that his personality was fixed and difficult to change. There was no way he could change it just because of a few words from him.
So she stopped persuading him and instead brought up another matter, hoping to divert Shan Jiqing's attention.
"Xiaoqing, please help me look at this paper!"
Jian Jianan handed it to him and said, "I'm going to meet Teacher Judy after school starts. We've always communicated via email before, but this is my first time meeting her in person. I've thought of some words to say when we meet. Can you help me see if there's anything I want to add?"
Shan Jiqing was indeed attracted by the serious business and no longer worried about the previous dilemma.
"Hmm... let me see..."
The two of them finished writing the wording, and Shan Jiqing was very happy for Jian Jianan.
"Teacher Judy is finally coming back this semester, right?" Shan Jiqing asked.
"Yes, she was away attending meetings and field trips last semester. Even I, a student, had to take time out of her busy schedule to visit her. We haven't seen each other for a whole semester. But luckily, Teacher Judy is finally going to return to school to teach this semester, so we can finally have a good face-to-face chat."
When an exchange student comes to study abroad for a year, in addition to competing with others in the original school, he or she must also find a target foreign school in advance and write a letter to find a teacher who is willing to accept you.
At that time, after searching various information, Jian Jianan finally chose Teacher Judy as her instructor when she came to New York. Fortunately, after Jian Jianan sent a sincere email, Judy was also willing to accept to be Jian Jianan's mentor.
But something unexpected happened. Judy's original teaching plan in New York was delayed due to a job change.
She had been conducting market research all over the United States last semester, running around everywhere. Not only did she not see Jian Jianan, she didn't even go back to New York.
Jian Jianan was originally worried that he would have to find a new tutor after this incident. Finding a tutor is a difficult task, and he didn't know which tutor would be willing to accept him when school started.
But Judy gave Jianan a plan. Even though she was traveling around and couldn't give Jianan face-to-face guidance, if she was willing, they could communicate through email, and she was willing to give Jianan help and guidance.
The reason why Jian Jianan chose Judy was because he knew how accomplished she was in this field, so he readily agreed.
Judy would assign Jian Jianan a paper every month through email, and would also thoughtfully find suitable literature for her.
When Jian Jianan had questions or didn't understand something, he would send her an email, and he would always receive a reply from the teacher on time the next morning.
Although the master and apprentice have never met, they have a pleasant time communicating through emails.
Now, Judy has finally finished her six-month field trip plan and returned to campus.
The first day of school was also the day the master and apprentice had agreed to meet via email. Jian Jianan was actually a little nervous. Although the two chatted very well in the emails, they had not actually met after all, so he didn't know how it would go.
Shan Jiqing encouraged her: "That's already great. Didn't you say before that you could tell from her emails that Teacher Judy is dedicated and easy to talk to? In that case, she's pretty easy to get along with, right? Just take it easy!"
Jian Jianan felt that this was the case, so he was no longer nervous.
On the first day of school, after finishing the morning classes, Jian Jianan followed the address given by Judy and came to her office.
The office door was open. Jian Jianan knocked on the door to attract the attention of the people inside, and then walked in.
"Teacher!" Jian Jianan greeted politely. After entering, he found a brown-haired woman sitting on an office chair. When she heard Jian Jianan's words, she looked up at her.
"Oh, Jane, you're here." The brown-haired woman was naturally Judy. She was not wearing a suit that would restrict her steps, but a short-sleeved shirt with a small piece of silk scarf with a retro pattern, which was very unrestrained and uninhibited.
Jian Jianan thought Judy would be a serious person, but she actually liked to laugh and was very amiable.
When she saw Jian Jianan coming, she stopped everything she was doing and started to communicate with Jian Jianan in a friendly manner.
She first expressed her apology for not being able to provide physical assistance to Jian Jianan on campus last semester, and then asked her if she had encountered any difficulties.
This difficulty naturally refers to racial discrimination.
The yellow race is at the bottom of the society in the United States today and their numbers are small. Judy was very worried that the little girl in front of her, who looked well-behaved, would encounter the same difficulties.
"Not many, it's impossible to say there are none, but there are still many good people, and there are even more classmates and teachers who care about me and help me, so I don't really care about those who discriminate. I think they are all uncivilized gorillas." Jian Jianan shrugged, and her harsh words made Judy laugh.
Jian Jianan gradually relaxed. She had originally thought that Judy would ask her academic questions during this meeting and test her student whom she had never met. However, she never expected that the two of them would start by chatting about trivial matters. It was only later that Judy picked up the paper that Jian Jianan had submitted during the winter vacation and began to comment on it.
She instructed, "...you could add a little more data. If it's just conclusions, it's not very useful and mainly unconvincing. That won't work."
Jian Jianan nodded humbly, indicating that he accepted the teacher's opinion. "Yes, I know this, but teacher, where can I get this data?"
If various data are connected to the Internet in the future, Jian Jianan will be able to check various data with just a few clicks. But now, to collect data, you either have to go to major libraries to find various paper materials and hope that there is data in these materials, or you have someone you know working in the target company who can help you obtain various first-hand information.
There is no other way.
Judy also understands this, otherwise she would not have gone to various cities in person to conduct field research. Isn't it just to get first-hand real data?
But Jian Jianan has to go to school, so this method is not very practical for her.
She pondered for a long moment, then suddenly asked, "By the way, Jane, did you ask me last time how to get a job on Wall Street?"
Jian Jianan nodded: "Yes, the last time I asked you, teacher, do you have any recommended companies? I am quite interested in this area. If there is a chance, I would like to go in and study and work for a while."
Judy smiled and said, "There's an opportunity right now! I know several teams at Goldman Sachs are looking for interns. How about this? I'll write you a few letters of recommendation, and then you can just take them with you."
Huh? This is some kind of pie in the sky, right?
Jian Jianan couldn't believe it. She had originally thought of finding some ways on her own, starting with a few smaller companies. Even if they didn't pay her salary, she would still be willing to go in and learn at the expense of some money. She just had to understand the operating models of these financial companies first, which was very important.
But now, the teacher is not only willing to write a letter of recommendation for her, but can also directly recommend her to Goldman Sachs!
Goldman Sachs, a big company, is a goal that Jian Jianan had never thought of before!
"Thank you, teacher!" Jian Jianan thanked him happily, "Teacher, I'm so grateful that you're willing to recommend me. I don't know how to thank you enough!"
Judy smiled and said, "No, no, I'll only recommend you if you have real talent! Besides, this is just an internship opportunity. Whether it becomes a full-time position depends entirely on your ability."
In the final analysis, Judy was just providing Jian Jianan with a stepping stone. Whether Jian Jianan could thrive in the company was none of her business.
No matter what, having a stepping stone already made Jian Jianan very happy.
Judy smiled and said to Jian Jianan, "Although I don't see you outside, I have carefully read the papers you submitted. They are very well written. I rarely praise people, teacher."
"What you lack now is practice. Wall Street firms are quite suitable for your major. Besides, after learning these, you can go home and help reduce the burden on your parents."
This is exactly what Jian Jianan wrote in the email she sent to Judy when she chose her as her advisor. She wrote sincerely, "My family has a small fortune, which has been managed by my parents. I also hope that one day I can return after completing my studies and help my parents share some of the responsibilities."
Jian Jianan nodded heavily, very happy.
She saw Judy turning her head from time to time to look at her office documents, so she said goodbye tactfully.
"Okay, teacher. I'll go back and prepare. I'll wait for your letter of recommendation!"
Jian Jianan said goodbye to Teacher Judy happily, and announced the good news to Shan Jiqing as soon as he returned to the apartment.
Shan Jiqing now goes back to Jian Jianan's apartment every day and goes to school the next day.
For this, he even learned to drive and took the driving test, so that he didn't waste four or five hours a day on commuting.
For this, Jian Jianan mocked him: "You are trying every possible way to stick with your girlfriend. You are really deliberate. Don't you have any personal life at all?"
Shan Jiqing said confidently, "My personal life is just sticking with my girlfriend!"
This shows how clingy he is.
Shan Jiqing was also very happy for Jian Jianan. Even he, who was not a business school student, had heard of the famous name of Goldman Sachs. Being able to intern there would be of great benefit to Jian Jianan's personal development.
Of course, this is also what Jian Jianan wants to do, and Shan Jiqing can only raise his hands and feet to agree.
Shan Jiqing was smug: "I will drive you to work every day from now on."
Learning to drive is still very useful! At least I can take her to work without having to wait for a taxi at the door.
Jian Jianan agreed with a smile: "Thank you, Xiaoqing!"
Three days later, Teacher Judy's recommendation letter was sent to Jian Jianan's mailbox on time, and the two of them immediately began to prepare enthusiastically.
"You wear this! It looks good! And it makes you look energetic."
Shan Jiqing was enthusiastically picking out clothes for Jian Jianan, as next week was the day she would go to Goldman Sachs for an internship.
With Judy's recommendation, Jian Jianan successfully passed another interview and got a 15-week internship.
In order to ensure that Jian Jianan has a perfect first day of internship at Goldman Sachs, Shan Jiqing is putting all his effort into picking out clothes for her and dressing her up.
Fortunately, the Shenya clothing that Jian Yangping brought for his daughter also included business suits, which were obviously prepared for work.
Not to mention that after Shan Jiqing moved into the apartment, he took care of Jian Jianan's daily clothing arrangements, completely solving her worries. Jian Jianan sometimes felt worried, what if she became unable to take care of herself because of Shan Jiqing's care?
Shan Jiqing picked out a cyan suit for Jian Jianan, and added a polka-dot silk scarf as a small accessory to embellish it. It looked very nice, dignified but not old-fashioned, and also had the unique girlish liveliness of Jian Jianan.
Jian Jianan tried it on and was very satisfied, so he decided to wear it to work.
That day, Shan Jiqing drove Jiannan to Goldman Sachs. When she got out of the car, the two exchanged a farewell kiss, and then Shan Jiqing sincerely wished Jiannan
"I hope you have a great day. I'll be waiting at home for Jane to return victorious!"
Jian Jianan said proudly, "Okay, just wait for me at home! Let's see what delicious food my family can bring you after making money tonight!"
Just like that, the ambitious Jian Jianan walked into Goldman Sachs and followed the instructions of the last interviewer to go to the floor where she was located. Then, the messy office with dozens of people gave her a warning.
In this large office, Jian Jianan could see that everyone was busy with their work. They were so busy that they didn't even notice someone walked in.
HR took Jian Jianan to the front desk, knocked on the table, and said, "Hey, Steve, doesn't your team often complain about being short-staffed and want us to find you someone quickly?"
"Look, I've found this person for you now."
"I found an intern for your group. At least it will make you less busy."
Steve was too busy to answer. He took a moment to glance at Jian Jianan before quickly lowering his head to attend to his own affairs. He asked, "Jenny, this young intern doesn't look very useful. Which university does she attend?"
Jenny smiled and replied, "She's a top student at NYU, a junior. Don't think just anyone can get in. How could I be wrong about the person I personally interviewed? She has excellent grades, is in the top few in her grade, and has a teacher's recommendation letter. She'll definitely be very useful to your team."
Steve was helpless. "I said our team is short of people and needs to hire a new person, but I didn't mean to ask you to find an intern. An intern has no work experience and knows nothing. Wouldn't that mean we have to teach her from scratch? How can I have the time to teach her?"
Jenny shrugged. "I don't know about that. After all, I've already brought her to you. As for how to use her, that's up to your team to decide. I'm leaving now. She'll start her duties today, so you can use her as you please."
The words between the two of them didn't mean to force Jian Jianan, but rather acted as if Jian Jianan was some kind of commodity to be traded. It was really a bit uncomfortable.
Steve saw Jenny turn around and leave after saying this, without any intention of staying to do anything, so he could only reluctantly take over the hot potato of Jianan.
But he was too busy. Their team had not yet completed this month's project, but the deadline was approaching soon. He was so immersed in his own project that he forgot for a moment that Jian Jianan was standing in front of him.
Later, Jian Jianan saw that he had not given any instructions on where to go for a long time, so he asked him directly: "Sir, sir! What should I do now?"
Steve suddenly remembered that there was a Jianan in front of him. He didn't know what he was doing and was waiting for his words.
But it's impossible for Jian Jianan to start their group's project from the beginning. Although she is a top student in the school, it doesn't mean that she can do well in the project. It's not an exam, so how could that be possible?
Steve thought for a moment, then turned around and suddenly asked his colleagues behind him: "I want some coffee, do you want some?"
The people behind him all perked up when they heard this, and they all shouted quickly: "Think about it, of course I do!"
Steve nodded and said to Jian Jianan, "In that case, if you really want to help, go buy us some coffee. The first thing you should do is collect information about the coffee flavors everyone wants to drink. Oh, and I want a cup of black coffee, no sugar, no milk. Go ahead, don't stand here like an idiot, you're blocking my view."
Jian Jianan was stunned. How could this happen? Did she come to work at Goldman Sachs just to buy coffee? This was completely different from what she had expected!
But there is no way. After all, it is only my first day here, and it is not easy to refuse the work assigned by my boss.
So she had no choice but to do as Steve said and went to every desk to collect the types of coffee they wanted to drink. Some people would quickly report their needs when they saw Jian Jianan coming, but some people seemed to have not seen Jian Jianan and were busy with their own things. They only spoke slowly after Jian Jianan asked several times.
"A latte, with ice and foamed milk. Oh, and I want full sugar."
"Cappuccino, thank you."
"Fresh White..."
Jian Jianan remembered that he was in a panic. In just a few minutes, he seemed to have learned about all kinds of coffee in the United States.
As she went downstairs, she checked her list to make sure she had remembered it correctly, but she felt very disappointed. It seemed that this internship would not be smooth and would be a long journey.
When she went down to the first floor, she happened to see Jenny resting in the tea room in the adjacent lobby, so she quickly asked her where the coffee shop was.
Jenny raised her eyebrows, looking not surprised at all that Jian Jianan was sent to buy coffee on the first day of her internship. Jian Jianan guessed that most of the other interns before her had also gone through the same process.
She enthusiastically pointed out the location to Jian Jianan, and then kindly told her: "You don't need to bring the coffee up here right after you buy it. You can't carry more than ten or twenty cups of coffee by yourself. The coffee shop I recommend to you has a delivery service. You can ask the staff to deliver it to your office."
After thanking him, Jian Jianan hurried out. She still held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that after completing the task of buying coffee quickly, she would be able to get involved in the real internship work.
Jenny watched Jian Jianan run away, turned around and said to her companion with a smile: "What a lively little girl, but I bet she will have to leave in two weeks."
After all, who can tolerate such a mean team member?
Jenny's companion disagreed. "No, no, no, I don't think she can last two weeks. I think she'll probably resign in three days."
The two of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Jian Jianan ran to the coffee shop as fast as she could, placed her order, added some money, and asked the waiter to send it to the office building. When she returned to the office building, she said hello to Jenny again, but when she returned to her floor, she was glared at by Steve.
"Coffee? Where's the coffee I asked you to buy? Why did you come back alone? How on earth did you manage to do something as simple as buying coffee?"
Steve only slept for two hours last night and was now so sleepy that he could hardly open his eyelids. If he didn't still have a trace of determination in his heart to complete this project, he would definitely not be able to write so furiously in the office now.
He was now counting on a cup of coffee to sustain his life, but Jian Jianan came back empty-handed, without a cup of coffee.
Jian Jianan explained: "I ordered a delivery service. It's impossible for more than ten cups of coffee to be ready in just ten minutes. I have to wait at least an hour. They said that they would deliver it to us as soon as the coffee is ready."
"Then why did you come back?" Steve questioned.
"I came up to see if there's anything I can do to help me. After all, we need to make the most of our time."
Steve sneered, put down the pen in his hand, leaned forward in the direction of Jian Jianan, and said coldly: "Listen, little girl, my words are orders. Buying coffee is your most important thing right now. You can't help with anything else."
Finally, he said, "Please don't make things worse, okay? I told you to go buy the coffee, so go buy it. Since the preparation is taking so long, you should just stay and watch over it. When they're done, you should bring it up. Do you understand? I think I should be very clear, right?"
Jian Jianan frowned, but she still agreed.
While the two were talking over coffee, someone would come up from time to time to hand in their report to Steve, and then he would scold them.
Jian Jianan finally realized that Steve was not racist, at least he did not discriminate against himself, a yellow person. He discriminated against everyone equally. No matter what your skin color was, you would be scolded by him.
Before leaving the office, Jian Jianan took a look at the people inside. They were all busy at their respective posts. She was the only one who was sent downstairs to buy coffee. Steve also clearly said that she didn't need to intervene. This shows that in his mind now, Jian Jianan's only value was to buy coffee.
When they got to the coffee shop downstairs, the waiter asked her in surprise: "Why are you back again? Are you going to add to the bill?"
The young man's face turned pale, he couldn't believe it. The order that Jian Jianan just placed was for nearly twenty cups of coffee, which was already scary enough. He had only made less than one-fifth of the amount and his muscles were already sore. He couldn't imagine that if Jian Jianan continued to place coffee orders, he might spend the whole morning just making her orders.
Jian Jianan smiled, rolled up his sleeves towards him, and showed a kind smile: "Don't worry, young man, I'm not here to cause trouble, I'm here to help."
The young man was stunned, and then he heard her continue: "This order is urgent, you can't handle it alone, let me come with you."
Jian Jianan didn't know how to make the more complicated latte art, but she had watched Shan Jiqing make coffee at home for so long, so she was familiar with the basic process of grinding coffee powder. In any case, one more person meant more strength, and this coffee order could be completed sooner.
Just like that, the young man was still in a daze, not understanding how the customer suddenly became his colleague. This had never happened before. For a moment, he forgot how to react. Should he push Jianan out or accept her kindness?
But Jian Jianan had already started. She turned around and asked the young man for confirmation: "Is this the bag of coffee?"
The young man quickly stopped her: "No, no, no, not this bag. We've already made the Americano and hot coffee. Now we're making the latte. The latte is over there..."
Just like that, the guy in the coffee shop was led astray by Jian Jianan in a daze. His previous resistance disappeared in an instant, and he was now concentrating on leading Jian Jianan to do the operation and help him.
With the joint efforts of Jian Jianan and the coffee shop guy, eighteen cups of coffee were finally ready after about an hour. Of course, during this period, there were new orders coming into the coffee shop continuously. It seems that people around here really love drinking coffee.
"Is there a big demand for coffee among the people working here? I see people placing orders almost every minute."
Jian Jianan was not idle while making coffee. He was subconsciously asking about the customer flow.
The young man replied automatically, "Yes, the demand is quite high. My shop is understaffed, and three of them are on leave today, so I'm the only one on duty. So, I've actually just turned down a lot of orders. If all four of us were here, we'd be busy from opening the shop in the morning until closing time, with not a single minute to rest."
"Oh, so that's how it is."
The young man suddenly felt something was wrong and asked, "Why do you want to know this?"
Jian Jianan smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I have an occupational disease."
When he sees an industry he is not familiar with, he wants to find out relevant information. This has become an instinct engraved in Jian Jianan's memory.
After finishing the production, Jian Jianan and his brother hurried into the building carrying the coffee. When leaving the coffee shop, he did not forget to hang up the "Temporarily Closed" sign.
Along the way, Jian Jianan thanked him profusely. The young man touched his head, a little shy, "No, no, actually, our store does have a delivery service, but we're short-staffed today and I need to do it myself. And I've delivered many times before. This is my job. You don't have to do this."
He guessed Jian Jianan's identity at once. It was indeed an easy guess. Who else would be sent to buy coffee except a newly arrived intern? The core members would definitely not do such a thing, and neither would the old hands. Besides, Jian Jianan was a stranger, so today was most likely her first day on the job.
After delivering the coffee and getting off the elevator, the young man sighed in his heart and wished Jianan well, hoping that she could stay in this position a little longer. He quite liked this Asian girl.
Hope to see her again in the future.
Jian Jianan brought the coffee back and delivered it to each person's table accurately according to their order. Some people were nicer and even said "thank you", but some people just took the coffee and poured it into their mouths without even looking at him.
After Jian Jianan finished her coffee, she saw that Steve was ignoring her again, and it was obvious that he was going to let her go. But how could she give up so easily? She took advantage of Steve's moment of rest to ask him, "Sir, the coffee job is done. Is there anything I can help you with next?"
Steve rubbed his nose tiredly. What the hell was that? He finally had a few minutes to rest, but someone came to talk to him again, and even came to ask for a task.
Steve was feeling annoyed. He pointed to a corner and asked Jian Jianan to sit there. "Come, there's a desk over there. It's yours from today. Your desk is right in front of our filing cabinet. After you finish buying coffee, take out these documents and organize them carefully. Arrange them by year, month, and project. After they are categorized, put them in a folder and keep the same ones together. It's such a simple task. Can you do it?"
Jian Jianan readily agreed. She was not afraid of a small job, but she was afraid of having no job.
But when Jianan got to the last desk, which was obviously half the size of everyone else's normal desk, she realized that the cabinet behind it was too big. She couldn't see it clearly when she was standing in the first row just now, but now that she was in front of it, she felt how huge it was. No wonder Steve's tone was so contemptuous just now, thinking that Jianan would never be able to finish it. Every corner of this big cabinet was filled with densely packed paper documents, without a single sliver of space.
Jian Jianan had no doubt that if he pulled out a piece of paper from the bottom, all the documents above would collapse, causing unpredictable consequences.
She turned around and glanced at Steve, who only gave her a cold look. Jian Jianan understood that Steve felt that he would be of no use here, so he casually assigned her a big task.
Jian Jianan stopped thinking about it. She took a document from above, then sat down and devoted herself to her work.
So what? Others looked down on me and thought I wasn't up to the job, so they just assigned me a random task to get by.
But the discrimination she has suffered since she was a child, whether obvious or implicit, isn’t that enough?
At the beginning, many people said that Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping had two children, and Jian Jiabei was a son. Isn’t this the best candidate to inherit the family business!
Later, someone else said that Jian Jianan was a woman and would have to get married sooner or later. Such a person would become someone else's daughter-in-law and an outsider in Su Qinxuan's family. Would it be appropriate to hand over this huge family business to her?
But Jian Jianan ignored the rumors and other people's opinions about her. She took steady steps and finally grew into the decision-maker she is today who is actually involved in the affairs of the two companies.
In the foreseeable future, Jian Jianan will inherit these two companies and develop them better and better.
So, how could she, who had gone through so much hardship, be defeated by the opinions of such irrelevant people?
She opened the file cover, looked at the project name clearly, then took out a pile of paper documents and put them together according to the same project name.
Therefore, she would not give up any opportunity. Past life experiences over the years told Jian Jianan that there might only be one opportunity. When the opportunity comes, the only thing you need to do is to grab it tightly and never let go.
An hour passed and it was soon noon. The people in the office finally stood up, stretched, and prepared to go to lunch, but no one came to invite Jian Jianan.
Jian Jianan was used to it and thought it was normal. It would be strange if someone really came to invite him.
She opened the lunch box that Shan Jiqing brought for her, and inside it were dishes that Shan Jiqing had prepared with love.
Food is the best comfort. Jian Jianan emptied her mind and stopped thinking. She ate Dan Ji Qingdai's food bite by bite, and then relaxed in these delicious foods.
However, Jian Jianan was unable to do even the simplest task of organizing information smoothly.
At around three or four in the afternoon, she received another important task from Steve: "You, the new one!"
The girl at the desk in front of Jian Jianan turned around and reminded her: "Steve is calling you."
Jian Jianan then looked up in confusion. She was so immersed in the information that she didn't even notice that Steve was calling her.
"Go get afternoon tea. The coffee from that place this morning was delicious, so let's go with theirs."
It's time to buy coffee again, but now there's an extra dessert in addition to the morning coffee. Everyone gets a drink and a snack, which is a standard afternoon tea.
So Jian Jianan had to suspend the work at hand. It was a very unpleasant feeling to have his work interrupted, but when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head, and you still have to listen to what Steve, your immediate boss, says.
Jian Jianan had no choice but to repeat her work this morning. She ran to everyone's desk to collect information, and then quickly ran to the coffee shop where she had been that morning.
The shop assistant was originally very leisurely. In fact, not many people would come to order coffee at this time. Coffee shops are usually busiest during the morning and evening rush hours. He was leisurely moving a chair to sit in front of the store to bask in the sun.
Then Jian Jianan came.
Seeing her running towards him in a hurry, the clerk immediately stood up as if he had seen a monster, and even knocked over the chair with him.
Jian Jianan gave him a harmless smile: "Hello Jack, I brought you a big order."
The revolutionary friendship they had when making coffee that morning had already led the two to exchange names. Jian Jianan added, "I'll help you make money."
Jack just wanted to say one thing: "Don't come over here!"
night.
Jian Jianan walked out of the building with a tired look on his face. Shan Jiqing did not wait for him at home as agreed in the morning. Instead, he gave Jian Jianan a surprise and drove over to pick up his girlfriend.
Jian Jianan was indeed surprised when he saw the familiar license plate number. This was a second-hand car bought by Shan Jiqing. It was not expensive. Neither of them was the type to pursue brand names. Practicality was the most important thing. As for a car, as long as it could be driven, that was enough.
Shan Jiqing opened the passenger door for his girlfriend and handed her the cake as she sat down.
"Eat it. I just passed by a dessert shop and there were a lot of people lining up. I thought I'd bring you one too."
