Chapter 596: Acquaintances (Additional chapters 2-1 for your reward to Strawberry)



When Jiang Jun talks about my dad and my mom in front of others, she is actually talking about Chen Zhong and Ye Qingyin. She only refers to Jiang Yonghua when she talks about my dad in front of Chen Yuanwu.

In her mind, Chen Zhong and Ye Qingyin were only better to her than Jiang Yonghua and Zhang Xiuying, so when she called them dad, it was natural and very affectionate.

Li Jingjing expressed her envy: "Your family treats you so well!"

Jiang Jun smiled: "Yes, I'm lucky!"

Li Jingjing chuckled: "Just show off!"

Jiang Jun put the comb in her coat pocket and looked at herself in the small mirror. She felt that her face was a little pale and her eyes were a little dark. It was obvious that she had not slept enough. She wanted to put on some light makeup, but felt that it was too arrogant. She could only pat her cheeks regretfully.

"Jingjing, thank you!" Such a loyal colleague could be upgraded to a friend. Jiang Jun omitted her last name and addressed her by her first name, appearing very cordial. "We're making dumplings tonight. I'll bring you some tomorrow!"

Li Jingjing stuffed the tea cans into her hands and said, "You have a lot of snacks at home, so take this back and drink it. I think your dad and his family will like it. My dad likes it so much that he specially asked someone to bring half a pound of it."

Jiang Jun took one look and said, "Wow, you have four ounces! How dare I take it?"

Li Jingjing blushed: "My dad has plenty of ways to get tea, just take it."

Jiang Jun blinked mischievously: "Thank you on behalf of our whole family!"

She also noticed that Li Jingjing had a good impression of Chen Yuefei.

It's really interesting. These two people only met twice and talked a few words in her office, but Li Jingjing fell in love at first sight. Hehe, if she can see Chen Yuefei on Sunday, she will definitely have a good joke with him.

Back in the office, Chen Yuanwu called: "Xiaojun, I'm coming to pick you up now to go to your dad's place. Can you ask for leave?"

Jiang Jun said without hesitation: "Sure! I'll ask Minister Su for leave!"

I keenly felt that a lot of ears were pricked up in the office.

Chen Yuanwu: "Okay, I'll be there in fifteen minutes."

Jiang Yun: "Okay, I'll be there right away!"

She put down the phone, and everyone in the office dropped their ears and went about their own business.

Jiang Jun sighed secretly. She seldom interacted with these male colleagues. They were often away on business trips. She didn't think there would be any conflict of interest with them. Now they were on guard against each other for a so-called promotion that hadn't even appeared in the slightest. She really didn't know what to say.

"Sister Zhu, I've asked Minister Su for leave. I might not be able to make it back in time for the afternoon meeting." The head of Social Research Group 2 hadn't returned from a business trip yet, and the office staff was managing the chores. Jiang Jun said hello to Sister Zhu, "I'll still be at work on time tomorrow morning."

As for what others think, she can take leave when she needs to.

Sister Zhu was also bewildered. This was the first time she'd seen someone so nonchalant about asking for leave. Without even offering an excuse, they went straight to their boss to ask for leave. It looked like the promotion was a sure thing, so she didn't dare ask any more questions. "Ah, it's an emergency at home, right? I'll let you know when we have the meeting."

Jiang Jun smiled, said thank you, and hurriedly packed up and left.

Watching Jiang Jun get into the jeep, Dibai, who was sitting by the window, turned and said to Sister Zhu, "Hey, what are you still remembering about attendance? I see Xiao Jiang didn't plan to go to work this morning. She came in, nodded to you, and then ran out to get her hair done. Now there's a car to pick her up. She even said she'd asked Minister Su for leave. She's just trying to scare us. Minister Su was in a meeting that morning. How could he just sit there waiting for her leave to be approved? I think Xiao Jiang has a close relationship with Minister Su. Maybe she already made arrangements."

Sister Zhu held her heart and said, "Is this true? I see Xiao Jiang is usually very quiet and quiet."

Di Bai shook his head: "You are so naive. No wonder you were beaten to the punch by a little girl at your age!"

Sister Zhu felt a pang of sadness, remembering how Jiang Jun had covered for her years ago. She was too embarrassed to say anything bad about Jiang Jun, so she could only grumble, "Hey, am I uneducated?"

Being with this group of male colleagues, she was never given a chance to be evaluated for professional titles or awards for advancement. She was just planning to live in peace and quiet, but then Jiang Jun suddenly showed up and got promoted.

A promotion means a pay raise!

Jiang Yun is good-looking and well-dressed. If her salary is higher, she will live a better life. In the future, she can find a partner with a good family background and have less burden.

There is no harm without comparison.

When Sister Zhu sighed, everyone fell silent. After all, when it comes to promotion, no one is willing to give in to others because of gender differences.

Jiang Jun left his worries behind as soon as he went out.

After Ye Qingyin's training, she became more and more aware of the benefits of not bringing work emotions home. Separating emotions from problems is the solution.

Chen Yuanwu tilted his head to assess Jiang Yun's complexion. "This braid is well done. It looks very energetic. It would look even better if she put on some powder."

Jiang Jun secretly kicked Chen Yuanwu: "Did you call my dad?"

The car was driven by a driver from the car class, and there was someone she didn't know sitting in the passenger seat. It was so awkward that her husband, Lao Wu, was flirting with her like this!

Chen Yuanwu laughed muffledly: "I said it."

Jiang Jun quickly changed the subject again: "Can you come back by noon? I have a meeting."

Chen Yuanwu shook his head: "It's probably too late, right, Qian Pai?"

Qian Dayong, who was sitting in the front seat, turned around and said, "Reporting to Staff Officer Chen, we are scheduled to return at 5 pm and will be able to pick you up at the Ping County Cultural Bureau at 6 pm!"

The platoon leader, surnamed Qian, sat in the front row. This address amused Jiang Jun: "Ah, luckily I took a day off."

Qian Dayong added, "Staff Officer Chen, we'll pick you up at 6:30 sharp."

"Okay!" Chen Yuanwu introduced Jiang Yun: "Xiao Yun, Qian Pai also lived in the division headquarters compound before, and he joined the army a year earlier than you."

Jiang Jun had no impression at all: "Huh? I don't think I've seen it before."

Qian Dayong smiled innocently: "Oh, I've seen you before. Your father works in the confidential department. You always grow vegetables in front of your house, and there are beans growing on the roof."

Jiang Jun: “…”

It’s really an acquaintance!

That means he has met Zhang Xiuying!

Qian Dayong couldn't see Jiang Jun's expression, so he continued, "Your father and my father are very familiar with each other. They often play cards and drink together."

Jiang Jun had no idea Jiang Yonghua had this hobby: "My dad also plays cards?"

Qian Dayong laughed: "Yes, sometimes when I go home to look for my dad, he can't tell me apart from my brother."

Chen Yuanwu explained: "Pai Qian is a twin. His younger brother is Qian Xiaoyong, and he is serving in the General Logistics Department."

Jiang Jun said "oh".

Qian Dayong wanted to say something, but suddenly stopped. "Ahem, Chief of Staff Chen, we're in a hurry, so we won't get out of the car to greet Uncle Jiang. Please say hello to him for me, and tell my dad to say hello to him too."
