Around eight o'clock the next morning, Lu Xin came to the company.
It was not the security office, but the business company where he had taken more than a week off.
Although Chen Jing had given him three days off to let him have a good rest, Lu Xin thought carefully and realized that he had nothing to rest for. He gave himself three days, but he didn't know where to go during these three days...
...So he might as well go back to the company. At least he would get paid for one day's work, right?
The director had approved a week's leave for him, but he hadn't been to work for eight or nine days.
This was not good.
And if I remembered correctly, the time for evaluating model employees was approaching.
…
…
When I came to the company's oppressive and cramped cubicle along the narrow stairs, I heard a burst of laughter coming from the stairwell from a distance, mixed with voices of someone's face being scratched by his wife again, a colleague dressed up beautifully today, and would definitely go to the bar after get off work, and maybe I could meet her if I went to drink somewhere at night...
Lu Xin, who had been in a good mood recently, felt a familiar feeling, sighed, and walked up quickly.
Then when he appeared at the stairs, the laughter beside the corridor stopped abruptly...
Several colleagues were still in a playful posture, one holding the other's shoulder from behind, and the other squatted down, with his palm in the shape of a monkey stealing a peach, and was reaching into the crotch of the colleague whose shoulder was held.
The colleague whose shoulder was held and was about to be stolen smiled reluctantly.
The atmosphere was indescribably happy!
But this happy atmosphere was frozen in an instant.
They stared at Lu Xin with wide eyes, and the muscles on their faces could clearly be seen twitching.
"Brother Zhao, Brother Liu, Brother Meng, good morning..."
Lu Xin wanted to join them to smoke one, but seeing how nervous they were, he had to smile and say hello.
"Okay... okay..."
Several colleagues stared at Lu Xin blankly, and it took them a long time to react, and they forced a smile.
Lu Xin tightened the bag on his body and turned to walk into the office.
Like the stairwell, it was not time to go to work yet, and there was a lively atmosphere.
Some colleagues were eating pancakes, some were lying on the partition, chatting with a married female colleague with two children, and some were lowering their voices in the tea room, talking about the problem of their husbands not paying their public grain...
Then as Lu Xin walked into the office, the atmosphere began to freeze inch by inch.
Everyone stopped their actions, and their eyes followed Lu Xin's figure directly, and a piece of egg fell out of the pancake.
Lu Xin walked to his own partition, put down his bag, and looked up at his colleagues.
"Hua La..."
Colleagues were busy, either taking documents or turning on the computer, or immediately forgiving their husbands.
"Did someone say something bad about me..."
Lu Xin thought strangely in his heart: "Why do I feel that my colleagues' reactions are strange..."
"Haha, you are diligent today, and your work attitude is worthy of encouragement. Work harder and strive to get another top performance this month, so that you can fire two less... Then who, Xiao Wang, send me the list of model employees..."
The director walked in excitedly with a bag under his arm.
He found that the atmosphere in the office was much more tense and cheerful than before. He thought that his usual strict orders had taken effect, and he was in a good mood. He walked into his office while praising and reminded his subordinates of the documents he wanted when he got off work yesterday.
However, as he was talking, he suddenly found that Xiao Wang's face was not right, and he was secretly looking in one direction.
He subconsciously turned his head and looked in that direction.
Then the smile on his face suddenly tightened.
Lu Xin raised his head from the cubicle and smiled at the director.
The director's face turned into one of horror, and then he tried hard to change from horror to smile, his voice trembling: "This..."
"This... Xiao Lu, are you... back?"
"..."
"Yes, Director."
Lu Xin smiled gratefully at the director: "Don't you welcome me back?"
"No..."
He simply shouted the word Director, and quickly became normal, laughing: "How is it possible? The company needs you, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect you to come back so soon, hehe, that... how is your sister?"
"You have to take care of your family with all your heart. Do you think I should approve you... for a few more days?"
"..."
"No need."
Lu Xin hurriedly said: "My sister is fine, she has been very happy these days."
While smiling gratefully, he looked around strangely: "Colleagues... why are you a little strange?"
"Swish!"
The colleagues around him were also stunned, and their hair stood up a few centimeters.
"How could it be... How could it be..."
The director was sweating all over, with a smile on his face, and suddenly clapped his hands vigorously: "Welcome, welcome, welcome back Xiao Lu..."
"Pa pa"
"Pa pa pa"
"Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa"
"..."
In the whole office, everyone clapped their hands, and the atmosphere gradually became warm.
"Welcome Xiao Lu back to work..."
"Congratulations to Xiao Lu's family for recovering their health..."
"..."
While clapping with the director, the colleagues gave Lu Xin a kind smile.
"Mr. Xiao Lu, you are finally back. Without you watching over that project, I simply can't do it..."
Even Brother Zhang, who was helping Lu Xin run errands for the procurement project, ran over excitedly and put a thick stack of documents on the desk in front of Lu Xin. Moreover, Lu Xin was sharp-eyed and noticed at a glance that there seemed to be an envelope sandwiched in these documents.
It was quite thick.
"Thank you, thank you everyone..."
Lu Xin was also a little happy, and gave everyone a kind smile. This is the atmosphere that should be there.
"Okay, okay, everyone continue to work..."
The director clapped his hands until they were red, and then he pressed them down. He wanted to turn around and go back to the office, but seeing Lu Xin still smiling at him, he felt a little guilty, so he said: "Xiao Lu is a capable person in our company. It's a good thing to return to work. It happens that today is Friday. How about this, everyone finishes their work early today, and I will treat you to dinner after work, okay?"
"Okay..."
A group of colleagues shouted excitedly, this is really happy.
"Okay, okay, you guys deal with the work first, Xiao Lu wants to ask for leave and then come to me..."
The director felt that the atmosphere made him feel more at ease, and he returned to the office while smiling.
Xiao Wang, his subordinate, brought the list of model employees for this month. The director wiped his sweat while crossing out all the names on it, and then wrote a new name with two characters, Lu, with the shortest attendance time.
"What happened..."
The director looked at Lu Xin's position through the transparent glass partition, wiping his sweat and sighing:
"I heard that this seemingly honest man is a fierce man who dared to take advantage of the chaos in the city to do evil everywhere and break people's legs with a stick. The whole company is saying that he is the illegitimate son of a big boss in the city..."
"Killing without blinking, breaking legs and robbing money..."
"It's over, what should I do..."
"The man who brought a gun to work is back again..."
"..."
Lu Xin quickly entered the working state and checked the work details and bills submitted by Brother Zhang.
Seeing how seriously he checked, Brother Zhang and Sister Li felt guilty. After discussing, they put together another envelope and sent it to him.
"You handled it very well."
Lu Xin gave them a high evaluation of their work.
He was also a little surprised that they had completed this procurement project well during his absence.
So what was the person in charge of this project responsible for?
While thinking, he looked at the two envelopes that looked quite thick...
Just responsible for this?
...
...
The director was very generous in treating, it must be because the company would reimburse him.
Colleagues liked the director's treats very much, because they could eat a big meal.
And this time, because Lu Xin came back, the director was particularly generous, adding two more dishes and drinking as much wine as he wanted.
The colleagues were also full of enthusiasm, especially after drinking a few glasses of wine, they completely let go and came to talk to Lu Xin with glasses in hand. Some said that he was the model employee, and some said that the company would be ruined without him. Their attitude towards Lu Xin suddenly changed from awe in the daytime to enthusiasm after drinking, and awe and enthusiasm showed two obvious extremes...
Even the director, after a few glasses of wine, slapped the table hard and pointed at Lu Xin and said: "Xiao Lu, I have to criticize you!"
"Huh?"
Lu Xin was a little surprised and looked up at the director.
The atmosphere became a little tense for a while, and all the colleagues stopped and turned their heads secretly.
The fat on the director's face trembled, but he still put on a full leadership posture: "You, my little brother, are obviously working hard and responsibly, and your performance is so good, why didn't I see your supervisor application?"
"What does our company emphasize? It emphasizes being proactive and daring to be the first!"
"If you don't take the initiative to apply for this supervisor position, what should I do?"
As he spoke, he glared: "Of course I will apply for you..."
"Don't worry, I'm saying this, the supervisor is yours, who dares to disagree, I will curse his ancestors behind his back!"
"..."
Lu Xin stood up in awe and toasted the director.
This is really unexpected. The director not only cares for his subordinates, but also... is quite humorous?
The atmosphere around has become more harmonious, and everyone is a good friend and colleague.
Those who toasted toasted, those who spoke intimately spoke intimately, and Lu Xin suddenly had several friends who would live and die together...
...
...
In fact, Lu Xin didn't like this kind of occasion very much, but he felt that he couldn't refuse other people's kindness, so he tried to fit in.
He waited until his colleagues left drunkenly, and the director also held his hand and repeatedly assured him that even if he didn't go to work with a gun, the model employee and the position of supervisor next month would definitely be reserved for him, and then he was the last to leave the hotel.
Slowly strolling, he came to the orphanage near the guard hall.
He looked at the lights on upstairs downstairs and wanted to go up, but he felt that it was too late and he had drunk some wine.
So he stood for a while, took off the water and electricity bill posted at the entrance of the corridor, and left silently.
