Since the establishment of Engan, the first extremely important year-end meeting will begin immediately. As a department leader, Zheng Yayi was nervous. After talking with Lin Xi about Wang Zhihe, she immediately returned to the office to recheck the work report.
Lin Xi is only calm on the surface. The company's middle and senior leaders are all there. Today's Engan is no longer a grass-roots team at the beginning. Although the high-level leaders have increased, most of the middle-level leaders are new people who rarely meet face to face on weekdays. To say she isn't nervous is false.
In the spacious and bright office, Lin Xi stood in front of the transparent glass window, looking down at the street downstairs.
In the cold winter because of this sleet, the vehicles on the street began to block and the traffic began to become crowded. From her perspective, the private car and bus stopped at the intersection, the rain was falling and the pedestrians on the road were holding umbrellas. Come and go.
She opened the window a little and waited for the cold wind outside the window to blow in, blowing away the heat wrapped around her body, and she felt a little relieved.
Looking at the document on the desk again, Lin Xi was planning to take it to the conference room.
Then Mama Lin's call.
"XiaoXi, do you have time today?"
Lin Xi held the phone lightly in her ear and when she heard Mama Lin's words in the receiver, she couldn't help but jokingly said, "Mom...Are you going to check my body again?"
"It's not this." Mother Lin heard her mention this and then said with concern: "Xiaoxi, has your nightmare situation improved? Are you feeling better?"
Lin Xi said in a relaxed tone that reassured her: "Much better, Mu Qing, she found Ning Shen incense for me from the temple and its much better to light it before going to bed and she also learned that incense from the master in the temple. If I use it all the time, it should be very effective."
Mother Lin remained silent.
After a while, she said, "She's really caring about you..."
"Huh?" Lin Xi thought about it before saying, "She has always been very kind to me and takes care of me everywhere, so don't worry."
Mother Lin fell silent again.
Lin Xi took the initiative to ask, "Do you want to see me today? I have a year-end meeting today. I don't think I have time for the whole day. Sorry, Mom..."
Mama Lin softened her tone and said slowly, "Then let's go out another day, it's fine."
Lin Xi paused and asked her, "What's the matter?"
Is there anything I have to say face to face, can't I say it on the phone?
Lin's mother's tone became hesitant, and after a while, she said helplessly: "Xiaoxi, I received news that your father has appeared in the capital recently, if he finds you again..."
Lin Xi frowned.
Father?
The original father, Duan Pingchuan, who had been missing for a long time?
"My...father?" Lin Xi probed: "Where did he go before?"
"No one knows this. If he finds you, what does he say to you or... if he wants to hurt you, you must pay attention to safety and tell me as soon as possible, understand?"
Lin Xi couldn't understand the logic of Lin's mother. Listening to Mother Lin's tone the original father seemed to be very dangerous and would hurt her?
Mother Lin took a deep breath before she said solemnly: "Xiaoxi, he's a lunatic, he took you away without authorization before and let you come back hurt, leaving you at the door of the old house, disappearing for so many years. If he hurts you again—"
When Mama Lin thought of what happened back then, her voice trembled.
Lin Xi quickly assured: "Don't worry, Mom, if he appears in front of me and hurts me, I will definitely call the police."
"Don't call the police!"
Lin Xi was stunned: "What did you say?"
"Child, you promise mother that you have a few more people follow you. Once you find Duan Pingchuan, tell me as soon as possible and don't call the police."
Lin Xi frowned again.
Can't call the police...
What is the reason for not calling the police?
Is it because Mama Lin still has friendship with Duan Pingchuan or is it for some other reason...
Lin Xi couldn't figure it out at all, she could only ask, "Mom, can you tell me why you didn't let me call the police?"
But Mama Lin didn't say more, just softly persuaded: "Child, mother is thinking for your own good, you protect yourself, okay?"
Lin Xi was startled, then smiled and said, "Okay, I'll definitely listen to you."
But at the same time, Lin Xi's unease could no longer be suppressed.
Mother Lin seemed to know something and was very sure that Duan Pingchuan would hurt her. A person who would hurt her daughter but Mama Lin didn't want her to call the police.
She suddenly remembered that Mother Lin had asked her more than once where Duan Pingchuan had taken her back then.
Duan Pingchuan took the original body away, and then the original body was injured and sent back by Duan Pingchuan. After that, Duan Pingchuan disappeared for many years and suddenly reappeared...
What's the connection?
Lin Xi was silent for a while and was about to give Lin's mother a side blow but Chen Yue knocked on the door again and came in.
Chen Yue stopped at the office door and reminded respectfully, "Ms. Lin, it's time for the meeting."
Lin Xi responded, then squeezed the phone and said to Mama Lin, who was opposite the receiver, "Mom, I'm going to the meeting first."
Mother Lin said warmly, "Go."
Lin Xi smiled and said, "Goodbye, Mom."
Hanging up the phone, Lin Xi picked up the documents on the table and Chen Yue then opened the office door wider.
Lin Xi went out and said to Chen Yue while walking towards the elevator, "Assistant Chen, please help me check a person's entry and exit records if you have time."
Chen Yue immediately said, "Ms. Lin, whose records do you want to check?"
Lin Xi paused and said to Chen Yue, "Duan Pingchuan."
Chen Yue nodded: "Okay, Ms. Lin, I will reply to you as soon as possible."
Lin Xi stopped: "Thank you."
Five minutes later, Lin Xi walked into the huge conference room. Lin Xi's arrival was the signal for the start of the meeting.
She sat in the chair and under the auspices of Chen Yue, the meeting officially began.
Chen Yue read out the main content of today's meeting, as well as the general process followed, emphasizing the discipline of the meeting, and all the mobile phones of all the staff were set to vibrate mode.
The first item of the process was Lin Xi's opening speech. With the speech in her hand, she summarized the operation of the company since its establishment and proposed the company's development strategy for the new year next year.
When she was speaking, everyone was staring at her. Lin Xi's speech was well prepared.
Since the establishment of Engan Games, with the expansion of the business, Engan has established a huge scale in a short period of time at the fastest speed and the company's personnel have also increased.
It is a fact that Lin Xi has little experience. After seeing Lin Xi's wrist ability, the new and old employees gradually no longer dare to ignore her young second-generation ancestor title.
The meeting is tentatively scheduled for one day. In order to save time as much as possible, the leaders who are in the meeting can go to the cafeteria to eat an hour earlier than the employees at work.
It was almost lunchtime and the meeting was still in full swing.
The spokesperson for the planning department just finished.
Lin Xi glanced at the time on her watch and was about to announce the end of the meeting temporarily and resume after dinner.
At this time, Situ Jin, the manager of the promotion department suddenly said, "Ms. Lin, regarding the promotion after the year, I suggest to cooperate with Xinchuang Media."
As soon as she spoke, everyone's eyes turned to this young and beautiful woman who had just joined the company.
The cooperation between Xinchuang Media and Engan has become more and more close recently, especially the holographic idol project at the end of the year, which is the most powerful golden signboard that Engan and Xinchuang have made together. Under the group her move was undoubtedly deliberately showing her favor to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi raised her eyes, looked at Situ Jin, and asked calmly, "Manager Situ, have you made a cooperation plan for this suggestion?"
Situ Jin was stopped by her question and she was stunned for a while before lowering her head.
At that moment just now, Situ Jin was frightened by her indifferent aura, her mind went blank and she couldn't say a word.
Fortunately, Lin Xi didn't ask any more questions, her expression remained calm and she said, "Everyone has worked hard, let's go to the cafeteria to eat first."
The leaders of all departments, big and small, followed with a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Ms. Lin has worked hard."
Lin Xi took the lead out of the conference room, Chen Yue followed her and the leaders of various departments then filed out.
Situ Jin walked with the vice president of the personnel department.
When Lin Xi walked away, the vice president laughed and teased in a low voice, "Is the flattery on the horse's leg?"
Situ Jin gave her a helpless look: "Are you still laughing at me?"
The vice president chuckled lightly: "You came to the company late, so you may not know the character of Ms. Lin. She is very clear about public and private in business. The artists of Xinchuang Media have always been expensive. If there's a more suitable choice she will choose it How can we cooperate with Xinchuang Media?"
Situ Jin asked suspiciously, "But isn't Xinchuang Media run by her eldest brother?"
"Having said that but their artists are very expensive?"
Situ Jin: ...
"Isn't it so deductible, the family is so clearly divided?"
The vice president thought for a while: "It's not really... , President Lin, have someone who can separate public and private."
Situ Jin gossiped and asked, "Who is it?"
"Her wife..."
"..."
The vice president deliberately lowered her voice and continued to laugh: "Don't you know, President Lin invested in a chain hotel a while ago and I heard that she reserved a top-level VIP card just for her wife. Her wife's company held an annual meeting at the Xiwei Bar and the person in charge of the bar called me and asked me what to do and I told him that he must not accept money, guess what?"
Situ Jin asked subconsciously, "Huh?"
"He called me this morning and said that Ms. Lin called him personally and said he did a good job."
Situ Jin: ...
"Isn't this a bit of a double standard?"
"She care about her! At least it means that people dote on their wives..."
"..."
Besides, Engan is not alone. In cooperation with Xinchuang Media, she finds her eldest brother Lin Licheng's company artist for every game and Xinchuang for promotion. What do you think other shareholders will think? "
Situ Jin nodded: "Yes."
"So in business, don't make your own decisions in the future."
Situ Jin laughed and took her arm: "Thank you, sister, I see."
Lin Xi also went to the cafeteria with everyone. When the time was up, she immediately sent a message to Chu Muqing: [I have a morning meeting, I'm exhausted~]
On the other end of the phone, Chu Muqing had just finished her work.
She subconsciously looked at the mobile phone on the edge of the desk and wanted to send a message to Lin Xi but she thought that she was going to have a meeting today.
Simply abandoned the idea.
When the thought flashed by, Chu Muqing realized later, when did she want to contact Lin Xi as soon as she had a little free time?
This kind of thinking hadn't lasted too long, and she had already stretched out her arm and picked up the phone that was clasped on the table.
The phone screen turned on.
A message appeared on the screen, which was sent by Lin Xi.
Immediately afterwards, there was a series of messages from Lin Xi.
Lin Xi: [Picture. ]
Lin Xi: [Look, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, sweet and sour eggplants and meatballs with cabbage. ]
Lin Xi: [The auntie in the cafeteria's craftsmanship is really good. I think there is still room for improvement in my cooking skills compared to hers. ]
Lin Xi: [Mrs. Lin, you don't need to reply to me, just work. ]
Lin Xi: [I just can't help but want to talk to you, it doesn't matter if I you can't see it. ]
After Lin Xi sent a series of messages, Chen Yue just came over with a dinner plate and sat down opposite her.
At this time, the phone screen lit up and it was a message from Chu Muqing: [It looks very rich. ]
Lin Xi: [Unfortunately, there is no soup. ]
Chu Muqing: [Anything you want to drink? I'll call the restaurant to make an order for you. ]
Lin Xi: [Ah ah ah, don't bother, I have a meeting in the afternoon. QAQ]
Chu Muqing: [ok, We'll drink it tonight. ]
Lin Xi: [Okay, okay~]
Lin Xi put away the phone and looked at Chen Yue's plate: "Huh? Is there cream of mushroom soup today?"
Chen Yue asked her with a smile, "Ms. Lin, didn't you see it?"
"No......"
Chen Yue knew that Lin Xi liked this soup very much and said quickly, "Then I'll go and get you another one."
Lin Xi immediately stood up one step ahead of her: "I'll just go by myself."
As she said that, she stood up and walked towards the dining window.
Chu Muqing looked at the chat page on her phone and a smile appeared on her lips.
Lin Xi's appetite has not been very good recently. She always likes to eat something soupy and watery and always likes to add a case of soup to meals.
Thinking of this, she took the time to send a message to the nanny aunt at home, reminding her not to forget to make soup tonight.
Seeing the reply from the nanny aunt, she focused on the documents on the table again.
At this moment, Lin Xi's message came again.
It was a picture from top to bottom. Although it wasn't very clear, Chu Muqing could clearly see that Lin Xi's open suit jacket and even her shirt were splattered with oil.
Even after she wiped it, the oil stains on the piece of food were particularly obvious and the affected area was very wide.
Chu Muqing typed with his fingertips: [? ]
Lin Xi: [...Just now, one person's plate was not steady and it just spilled on me. ]
Chu Muqing: ...
Chu Muqing: [Did you get burned? ]
Lin Xi: [No, it's just a little uncomfortable. I'm going to have a meeting with them in this dirty suit. ]
Lin Xi: [Aaaaaaaaaaaa ruined the good image of me! ]
Chu Muqing was helpless: [Do you still have the mind to joke at this time? ]
Lin Xi: [suits and shirts are expensive QAQ]
Lin Xi: [I feel distressed about the money... If you don't wash it cleanly, you can't ask for it...]
Chu Muqing: [...]
Chu Muqing: [Do you have time to go out and buy a new one? ]
Lin Xi: [The meal time has been shortened to half an hour, which is too late. ]
Lin Xi: [It doesn't matter, I'm sitting behind the conference table anyway, they probably won't be able to see it. ]
Chu Muqing: [Wait for me. ]
Lin Xi: [?????]
Chu Muqing did not reply.
Lin Xi quickly finished her lunch and her good mood was instantly ruined by this sudden "flying disaster".
Even if she cleaned up quickly, the oil stains and the strong smell on her clothes could not be dissipated. Chu Muqing asked her to wait for her?
Shouldn't someone bring her a new shirt?
Time did not wait for anyone, Lin Xi returned to the conference room and everyone came back one after another.
They saw the stains on Lin Xi's body at a glance and everyone saw it just now Someone bumped into Lin Xi and sprayed her directly.
The vice president of the planning department, who was over forty years old, was so scared that his face turned pale and he kept apologizing to Lin Xi but Lin Xi smiled and said that it was all right and only reminded him to be careful next time.
When everyone is there, the meeting starts again.
It was the planning department's turn to speak. When the vice president spoke, affected by the incident in the cafeteria, he spoke intermittently. Lin Xi asked a few questions. Fortunately, he found that Lin Xi's attitude was no different from that of others, I finally got sensible and I was relieved that I would not lose my job because of this matter.
Half an hour later, Situ Jin quietly left from the back door of the conference room, ready to go to the bathroom.
She went out the door, finally letting go of her tense emotions and stretching, her face was obviously tired.
She has not been in any company yet and has experienced such a rigorous year-end summary meeting. It may be that she worked in a small company before, so most of the year-end meetings are listening to the leaders of the company, it wouldn't be so serious at all.
However, Engan is extraordinarily professional. Maybe she can really bring her career to a new height from this company.
At this moment, she looked not far from the corridor and a cold woman walked over slowly.
Situ Jin was stunned for a moment. The woman was thin and had a very good temperament. The noble and elegant temperament seemed to be innate and she walked in her direction unhurriedly.
When she approached, Situ Jin was startled again when she saw her delicate and cold facial features. The woman stood still in front of her, her skin became paler and paler in a light blue suit and the light makeup on her face was just right.
Situ Jin couldn't help holding her breath and couldn't help sighing in her heart, when did the company come to such a beautiful woman, she has no impression at all...
"You..." Situ Jin hesitated in her heart to strike up a conversation.
The woman was carrying a wrapping paper bag in her hand. She looked down at Situ Jin. In the quiet corridor, her deliberately low voice became particularly pleasant: "Hello, is Ms. Lin Xi in there?"
Situ Jin was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Lin is in a meeting, may I ask who you are...?"
Chu Muqing nodded politely and asked softly, "My surname is Chu, Chu Muqing."
Situ Jin was stunned for a moment, her eyes gradually widened: "You... Are you Mrs. Lin?"
Chu Muqing responded, "En."
Chu Muqing asked, "Miss, can I trouble you to give her this shirt?" She added, "It's not convenient for me to go in."
"...Of course." Situ Jin reacted and immediately stretched out her hand: "Just give it to me, I'll take it for President Lin."
Chu Muqing raised her eyebrows again and thanked: "Thank you."
Situ Jin took it, smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, it should be." She thought about it, and then took the initiative to introduce herself: "Hello, Mrs. Lin, I'm the promotion department, Situ Jin."
She said and took the initiative to reach out.
Chu Muqing stretched out her slender hand, shook her hand, and smiled politely, "Hello, Miss Situ."
The handshake was instantly parted and Situ Jin once again sighed in her heart that if she wasn't an Omega, she might really have fallen in love with such a temperamental woman at first sight.
Seeing Chu Muqing turning around to leave, Situ Jin asked again, "Mrs. Lin, will you leave without seeing Ms. Lin for a while?"
Chu Muqing shook her head with a light smile: "I have to go back to the company, so please."
"No... no trouble..."
Looking at Chu Muqing's back, turning away, Situ Jin couldn't take her eyes off for a long time.
She finally understood why President Lin double-standardized her wife and she seemed to understand why the rumors said that President Lin was afraid and protected her wife like something.
Such a woman may be confused by anyone who sees it.
