Chapter 122: Vitality and freshness
After receiving the instructions, Lin Nuan replied to Song Yulin's secretary according to Xiao Jingyan's instructions.
Being able to go home from work at night without having to accompany the boss out for social events should be the working status that every worker wants most.
She was in this state before, working from nine to five every day, not to mention how comfortable she was, she rarely worked overtime throughout the year. Of course, she had also been a newcomer, and after becoming an intern, she was also exhausted every day. That situation lasted for more than a year. However, every year there were new people joining the company, and she was gradually liberated. She just had to do her own job well. She didn't use the old tricks and she didn't bully the newcomers, and she just followed the routine every day.
I didn't expect that after waking up I had been promoted, but my work status suddenly returned to the state before the liberation. Although my position was higher, I was not as comfortable as before.
If the boss asks her to work overtime, she has to work overtime. If the boss asks her to take her to a social event, she has to go. Now she is not only the boss's note-taker, but also the boss's time manager, and she also has to act as a tool from time to time.
It is said that business is like a battlefield, and what is fought in the business world is more of a psychological battle.
Lin Nuan was packing up to go home when her cell phone suddenly rang. It was Xiao Jingyan calling. She hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the call.
"There is an emergency meeting tonight. You should get ready and come with me." Xiao Jingyan's voice was cold and unquestionable.
Lin Nuan felt helpless, but still responded, "Okay, Mr. Xiao."
She put down her phone and sighed deeply. She thought she could go home and rest early today, but she was forced to attend an emergency meeting. Lin Nuan couldn't help but wonder, is this really the benefit of a promotion?
As night fell and the lights came on, Lin Nuan and Xiao Jingyan sat in the back seat of the car and drove to the meeting place. Along the way, the two were silent and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward. Lin Nuan looked at the bustling night scene outside the window and felt deeply moved.
The car stopped in front of a luxurious building, and Lin Nuan followed Xiao Jingyan into the conference room. The conference room was filled with a serious atmosphere, and the senior executives of major companies sat together. Xiao Jingyan sat in the main seat with a stern expression, while Lin Nuan sat quietly beside him, recording the key points of the meeting.
Halfway through the meeting, someone suddenly raised a difficult question, and everyone fell into deep thought. Lin Nuan raised her head and looked at Xiao Jingyan, only to see a sly light flashing in his eyes.
Xiao Jingyan broke the silence and said in a confident and firm tone: "I have a solution." Then he elaborated on his ideas in detail, winning the admiration of everyone present.
Lin Nuan looked at Xiao Jingyan in surprise. She had never seen him perform so well before. At this moment, she developed a new respect and appreciation for Xiao Jingyan.
After the meeting, Xiao Jingyan and Lin Nuan left the building. The night breeze brushed their faces, bringing a hint of coolness.
In fact, this kind of life is pretty good. It is much more interesting and meaningful than her previous life like a salted fish.
Xiao Jingyan turned his head and looked at Lin Nuan beside him, with a slight smile on his face.
"Well, this meeting was not in vain."
Lin Nuan nodded gently, "Boss Xiao's plan is indeed brilliant."
"This is not just my own achievement." Xiao Jingyan's eyes fell on Lin Nuan with a hint of praise, "Your records are very detailed and have given me a lot of inspiration."
Lin Nuan blushed slightly, "Thank you, Mr. Xiao, for the compliment."
Xiao Jingyan smiled, and the two of them strolled together in the night.
"There may be many more emergency meetings like this in the future. You must be prepared."
"I understand." Lin Nuan answered seriously. After this meeting, she was more aware of her responsibilities.
"But..." Xiao Jingyan paused, "Thank you for your hard work, Lin Nuan."
Lin Nuan looked up at him, her eyes flickering with determination.
"This is my job, Mr. Xiao. Besides, I have learned a lot working with you."
Xiao Jingyan smiled. He saw the passion and effort in Lin Nuan's eyes.
"Then keep going!" Xiao Jingyan gave some appropriate encouragement.
"I'll try my best." Lin Nuan replied.
There are many valuable things in life. No matter what happens, you should live and work well.
Before, when Lin Nuan saw Xiao Jingyan’s face that was so familiar that it couldn’t be more familiar, she would always feel dazed for a moment, and sometimes even felt that the two faces seemed to overlap. She had a lot of unrealistic thoughts in her mind, but now it seems particularly clear and distinct.
After returning home, they went back to their respective rooms. Lin Nuan slept soundly until dawn, and felt refreshed after waking up.
She went to work as usual. Since she got up in the morning, until now, the two of them were sitting in the car going to work. Lin Nuan found that Xiao Jingyan had looked at her openly for many times, with some inquiry in his eyes. She looked back without avoiding, which was quite embarrassing. She could not help being stared at by him.
"Boss Xiao, is there something wrong? Or is there something on my face? Did I ruin my makeup?"
As she spoke, she took out her phone and looked at it intentionally, but after looking left, right, up and down, she didn't find anything on her face. She usually doesn't wear heavy makeup, always light makeup, so there was nothing wrong with the makeup on her face and it looked the same as usual.
Xiao Jingyan stared at her and said, "I feel like there's something different about you when you woke up this morning, or like you're a little different since you came back last night."
"What's the difference?" Lin Nuan asked.
"You look a little different. I feel like you have changed a lot, but I can't put it into words for the time being." Xiao Jingyan said.
The inquiry and curiosity in Xiao Jingyan's eyes suddenly made Lin Nuan feel uneasy. At this moment, she felt that he was like a researcher who wanted to skin her alive and study her thoroughly at any time.
Lin Nuan laughed dryly twice, "I've always been like this! Maybe it's because I just got out of the hospital not long ago when I started working and my body hasn't recovered yet. Now that my body has recovered, you think I'm a little different."
Xiao Jingyan seemed to have suddenly thought of something, as if he had suddenly realized something. "I remember how to describe you. You seem to have suddenly come to life and become very lively. Although you were the same before, you looked very decadent and always had an attitude of letting things go and not caring about anything. Whether it was your smile or your other emotions, they were all like programmed machines. Now you are more casual. There is light in your eyes and your smile is very real."
Lin Nuan was stunned for a moment by what he said. She didn't expect that he was so good at judging people.
