The morning session started on time with the conference room taking place on the 5th floor, with floor-to-ceiling windows, silent air conditioning, and warm air.
As soon as Anne came in and hooked up her computer to the big screen she started stomping up on her heels to give her speech:
"Hello everyone, this time we went to Beijing and investigated the issue of Derek's private staff deployment. Derek was responsible for the deployment of personnel within the plant before, basically not going through the HR department. Last month, someone reported that Derek had transferred personnel privately, and the minister in Factory 1 left a few days ago, and then recruited a new person to join the company, and he became the minister directly. According to the whistleblower this time it was Derek who made the transfer privately".
"After that we intervened in the investigation and realized that the position of factory ministers are promoted internally and do not go for external recruitment, but this time Derek recruited privately and externally, and after investigation the person did not have experience in the position of minister."
"But this morning we received another letter of report, Cissy, tell us about it."
Anne looked at me and the conference room instantly reversed direction.
"I received another letter of report this morning which states that the new minister and Derek are acquainted and in a male-female relationship. And it complains that Derek forced the previous minister to leave, a matter we are still investigating further."
When everyone had finished their discussion, Yang Yiqing had been sitting quietly, taking a few sips of coffee from time to time. The fragrance of the black coffee spread around from time to time.
I glanced in his direction between looks as well, thinking that he seemed to have his attention elsewhere today.
I guess it's the coffee that's more enticing.
When the meeting was adjourned, it was only about 11 o'clock, today's meeting ended earlier than expected, I prepared a large pile of information used to cope with Yang Yicheng inquiries one did not use, the heart is a little lost. I was in the corridor, took out my cell phone to send out a bean broadcast: is not black coffee more attractive. ...... (>_<)......
Li Dongyang is preparing for the final exam in the past few days, and he must be the one who opens WeChat:
"Look, I'm in the library."
"Look, I've finished one subject, and I've got Gross Introduction left."
......
I thought: I hope you have more exams before all the attention is on my side, now that's just right.
At night, the Magic City, where the cold air suddenly descended, became unusually cold. The wind could pass through the neck and blow the cheeks red.
I'd lost one of my gloves as well, and my other hand was bare, thinking about how I seemed to be getting more and more confused lately, and how a lot of things were slowly being put on hold, while I always felt as if I should be figuring out something, or a query, but how I was going to find the answer I really had no way of knowing.
At the edge of the parking lot in the distance, Yang Yiqing's car lights flashed out, he sat inside, head down, the driver carrying him whizzing by. He got off work quite early today, the recent case to improve the inventory policy had also been busy for him, I guess.
I scrunched up my collar and ran quickly toward the subway entrance, thinking as I ran:
"It's cold, I want to go home, I want to eat hot rice cake soup."
The lights are still on at Starbucks, and from time to time women in high heels leave with coffee ......
Over the weekend, my cell phone alarm was still chugging, the shrill sound lingering in the air for a long time, but I was still sleeping heavily as well. It wasn't until the curtains couldn't keep out the sunlight that I rolled over and got up to take a look.
Squeeze the toothpaste while putting the eggs in the egg steamer. Lots of news popped up on my phone along with a ton of unread texts.
I set my phone on the edge of the sink and flipped through it with my fingers as I brushed my teeth.
Shanghai Morning Post -
Nuts on sale -
Women's New Arrivals -
10086......
Beanstalk's new broadcast ...... Twitter alerts ......
I was about to check the beanbag when there was a knock on the door outside the house: knock - knock - knock.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw an energetic Li Dongyang, who was wearing an early spring jean jacket with a black turtleneck sweater underneath, smiling with all his teeth showing said:
"Up? I'm meeting a friend to go to Pleasant Valley with me today, so hurry up and join us ......"
"Ah, what time is it, I raised my hand to look at my watch as I spit out the toothpaste foam, it's just after 10:00."
"Come on, it's crowded on the weekends so hurry up."
"But I'm tired and ......"
"I'll pick you up in about 15 minutes, hurry."
Li Dongyang said the last sentence very loudly, as if it was a collusion, and did not allow me to refuse at all, usually he would not be like this. Do exams change character?
Reluctantly, I hurriedly washed up and changed into my gym clothes. Carried a company cloth handbag and haphazardly stuffed it with some umbrellas and such.
As I headed downstairs, I could already hear Li Dongyang's voice. There seemed to be a lot more people. I held my forehead, thinking that he wouldn't be bringing a line of his classmates with him.
When he got downstairs, the sun shone brightly outside, and his friends were seen gathered around the car by the greenbelt.
When I saw this car from afar, I felt familiar, is this, is this not Yang Yiqing's ......?
I pointed at the car just before I wanted to ask out, Li Dongyang smiled and said:
"Get in the car, it's a crowded weekend and the roads will be jammed." A mouth full of questions was blocked back.
I laughed and gathered my hair, then greeted Li Dongyang's friend and just sat on the passenger side. A girl in the car came into view. You know, a woman's intuition is sometimes sensitive and scary.
"Oh, she is Wang Minyuan." Li Dongyang saw me looking at, it hurriedly responded to: "She has not been to the Happy Valley, by the way, came together, a lot of people lively" well.
The girl was wearing a short skirt and a ponytail, youthful and very pretty. On the other side Li Dongyang's friend-Song Ze, and Yan Yan. Looking at this carload of people, I felt youthful and renewed.
"Good, that's nice." I said with a smile. In fact, I don't know why I said such a few outlandish words.
The car was soon traveling up the road.
The drive became long as the car reached Matsue.
"Dongyang have some water ......" Wang Minyuan's voice sounded in the back seat. The water was handed over with the bottle cap already thoughtfully opened.
"Oh", Li Dongyang took the mineral water very smoothly, operated the steering wheel with one hand and drank it with the other.
Instead, I took a look and didn't say anything, my head tilted to one side and I closed my eyes, as if a lot of things were out of my control, I would always give myself all sorts of excuses to run away from things that I would have known should have happened, and like link and I said, I was always so unsure of myself ...... Yes, I was. At the moment, with Friday's events swirling around in my head, Anne's sudden departure. It was really like a thunderbolt that exploded all over me. It's also like the sudden fall of a big tree, kicking up dust that squints and blinds me.
On Friday, an audit from corporate headquarters came over to investigate. Questions arose about the imputation of gifts. I was puzzled, the gifts were unsupervised in the early years, then transferred to our department, after which Anne was helping with the registry and occasionally I was involved. Although there is no key to the gift safe, and Anne is responsible for registration and collection, which is naturally out of order, but this piece was originally blank, even if something is missing should we blame Anne? Her monthly paycheck is not much, but she's not so greedy that she'll give away these gifts, right?
And the gifts were either tea or used calendars or some wine, none of them were big valuable items. Although I also wanted to help organize, but really too many things, and Anne's previous person also suddenly left, to her new job is not any predecessor of the handover, the gifts and the list does not match all can not be blamed on Anne.
Headquarters audit from time to time over to me to take a few points of information, serious expression, followed by the entire gift cabinet open, pick and choose to register, suddenly inside and outside the office became noisy.
I stood next to simply not allowed to get close, but also can only watch, hoping not to be missing something, even if it is missing, but also certainly can not be found, because there is no one to supervise, and now this hot potato was raised, but also can only be Anne to take it.
After a while, to be the headquarters of the people audit end, Yang Yiqing paced from the conference room out, he stood to my side, looking at the headquarters audit listed list, let me in the personnel of this place to sign. I froze for half a second, looking at the discrepancy where 10 items were missing, I just wanted to argue something, Yang Yiqing on the side without saying a word directly handed a pen to my hand:
"Signature"!
