C11 The Invitation of the Goddess
After Pei Dongcai and Lin Dong left, I sat down.
"Uncle Qiao, isn't this a bit bad? Because I had such a hard time with Pei Dongcai. "
I said worriedly to Uncle Qiao. Mainly, I felt that it wasn't worth it. Humans still need to learn how to endure.
"With us here, how could we watch you get beaten up? If word of this gets out, won't we be laughed at by others?" Ba Cha said with a smile.
I looked at Ba Cha as I thought about what happened last night.
Ba Cha and I looked at each other, as if noticing my hidden bitterness.
"Last night was an accident. Um, it was you, Uncle Qiao's fault, telling me to go out again. I didn't have a good grasp of it for a while, but I also found out that you're really courageous, not bad not bad."
Ba Cha explained awkwardly. I just smiled and didn't say anything.
"What?" How did it become my instruction? I clearly said that you would guarantee his safety, but in the end, you were injured to such an extent. I have yet to find trouble with you, and you still want to shirk your responsibility? " Uncle Qiao quickly asked.
I didn't blame them. It was funny to see these two old friends arguing.
"Uncle Qiao, it's fine. If it wasn't for my bitter plan, how would I have the chance to take care of Pei Dongcai today? Didn't he say that the lives of rich people are valuable? Then we'll teach him the principle of being human."
Uncle Qiao is very happy to hear me say so.
"Don't be afraid, we are all stronger than that Pei Dongcai. He is used to being arrogant, so he didn't meet any tough opponents. This time, let's show him some respect. That son of his, if he dares to be arrogant again, then don't hesitate to take care of him." Uncle Qiao said.
After bringing Uncle Qiao back to the company, I prepared to continue working in the car repair department. However, Uncle Qiao stopped me and pulled me to a corner mysteriously.
"The thing you told me to do has already been done. The person has already been recruited for you. The rest will depend on your performance. Don't be afraid. Men, be more confident." Uncle Qiao said in a low voice with a smile on his face.
It was not an ordinary smile, but the kind of smile that parents use to feel gratified.
"Uncle Qiao, what are you talking about?" That's a classmate, I've only come to help her greet him because of this relationship, don't think too much about it. " I quickly explained.
Although I did have that intention, I didn't want others to know that I had prepared so many things. After all, the eight words weren't complete yet. If I didn't get my hands on them by then, wouldn't it be a bit awkward?
"Understood, but you're not young either. It's time to get a wife, and we need to light up our house. I think that girl is pretty good, with a high education, good looks, and a good match for you. Make your move early, you know, or you'll be robbed."
I had never realized that Uncle Qiao was so gossipy before. After that, I understood that Uncle Qiao was not gossiping, he was just being particularly concerned about me.
Uncle Qiao knows me better than anyone, as if he knows what I think.
I explained everything and finally got Uncle Qiao out of the way. When I got back to the car repair department, I could finally have a good rest.
Lying on my chaise longue, this is my afternoon, and many people say that my life is no different from those of retired old men.
There were many women in their forties and fifties who were eager to introduce me to the company, but no one ever thought of me. They said it was because they thought I was too unambitious.
Many of the people who came in later than me were executives, or at least department managers, and I was the only one still in this garage, eating and waiting to die.
Of course they don't understand. I enjoy this life very much, and I don't have much interest in this company. If Uncle Qiao really can't do it in the future, then it wouldn't be too late to consider it.
Shaking in my chair, just as I was about to fall asleep, my phone rang. I didn't know which blind person actually disturbed my sleep. I picked up my phone and was about to start cursing.
As soon as I saw the name, I sat up, cleared my throat, fixed my hair, and answered the goddess's phone.
"Hello, Xu Nuo."
"Chen Qian, are you free tonight?"
Xu Nuo's voice was so gentle. This was the first time I received a call from her. Just a few words were like a sweet spring that seeped into my heart and soul. The sleepiness from before had long vanished into thin air.
"I'm free. Is there anything I can do for you?"
"No, no, no. I just want to treat you to a meal and thank you for helping me out so much."
I almost blurted out the words "when I'm free". Since I've already promised her, she will definitely think that I have a reason for doing things in the future. She can't say such words.
"So it's like that, we're classmates, it's only natural. Besides, I just mentioned it in front of Director Qiao. I can't help much, and the reason you got hired is because of your ability."
After some thought, I decided it would be more appropriate to say so.
In fact, I was still a little apprehensive. What if Xu Nuo really did follow me and let it go just like that? This is a good chance to be alone with my goddess, it's something that I've always wanted to do.
I prayed in my heart that he would continue to invite me. Soon, I received the answer I wanted.
"Chen Qian, you're really modest, don't be so polite. I'll treat you to a meal tonight. It's settled then. I'll send the address to your phone in a while, see you later."
Before I could say anything, Xu Nuo had already hung up.
I know that Xu Nuo is definitely afraid that I would reject her good intentions. She would never think that I would laugh out loud at this moment. The entire garage is empty. I even want to rush inside!
I have to prepare properly when eating with a goddess. I have to show Xu Nuo that I'm different. I rushed to Uncle Qiao's office and took the keys to the Mercedes-Benz. I ran away without waiting for Uncle Qiao to ask any questions.
I drove straight to the best shopping mall in the county. It was important to get some decent clothes.
However, when I arrived at the mall, I felt a little dizzy. I also encountered the old question that had troubled me for more than 20 years about how to dress up.
Every time I went out in clothes that I thought were handsome, I would always be suppressed by those people. I never cared about that before, but thinking back to Pei Shuo's appearance last night, I was a little unconvinced.
Pei Shuo is acting like a dog, you can still see after dressing up a little. If I had dressed myself well, wouldn't I have mesmerized Xu Nuo?
I have to show a different self tonight. I swear to myself that I am no worse than anyone else, so why should I stay hidden in the crowd?
