Chapter 17 Ask the host to sort out his mind and clear away the chaos...
Originally it was Xiong Yan who proposed the extension, but Lou Tingyu joined unexpectedly, and the expenses of this trip were covered by the highest-ranking Lou Tingyu.
Zhou Xiaoxi was very sorry, and when she saw Lou Tingyu go out of the box to answer the phone, she thought about it and followed, watching Lou Tingyu put away her phone from a distance before approaching to express her gratitude.
"Small things, don't worry about them." Lou Tingyu asked after finishing speaking, "Going to drink something?"
"Okay." The two went to the bar, ordered drinks and sat down. Zhou Xiaoxi remembered the clueless task two, and then looked at the manager in front of him. How bold he is and how productive he is! "Manager, do you know the 'Star of the Month' selected by our department before?"
"know."
There is drama. "I heard we canceled it?"
"Hmm. Why do you ask this?" Lou Tingyu smiled, "Do you want to be the 'Star of the Month'?"
I don't want to, the system makes me want to.Zhou Xiaoxi lowered his head and replied: "I have this idea. I heard that the former manager canceled the 'Star of the Month' because the honor did not flow, and he chose my master sister Wang Li many times in a row. I thought... Is it possible for me to get this honor too? "
Lou Tingyu pondered for a moment, and said to her: "Actually, Manager Feng has not completely canceled the title of 'Star of the Month'. The monthly work summary is still recording this item, but it just stops publishing it."
As soon as he got out of the peak and turned around, Zhou Xiaoxi was too surprised to be happy, and Baba waited for the next article.
When it comes to work content, Lou Tingyu will talk more: "Yes, the reason for stopping the announcement is because of Wang Li. In the past three years, the "star of the month" recorded by Manager Feng is all Wang Li. Manager Feng mentioned this when handing over work to me. One thing, he said that the reason for choosing Wang Li at first was to grow rapidly, but Wang Li’s rise far exceeded expectations, and she soon became the number one in the sales department and continued to improve. He was unwilling to choose others for the sake of fairness, so he adopted a new incentive measure."
"But Manager Feng still insists on recording..." Zhou Xiaoxi didn't quite understand.
Lou Tingyu: "Manager Feng is the first employee of the company to be awarded the title of 'Star of the Month'. He has considered revising the selection criteria, but has not made a decision."
Zhou Xiaoxi suddenly realized that Manager Feng had feelings for this title. In order not to affect the enthusiasm of other employees, he reluctantly canceled it and was reluctant to change it. He left a small place in the report to let it continue to exist.
The current situation seems to be in her favor, but even if the selection of "Star of the Month" resumes, it would be tantamount to a dream for her to win the title against Wang Li.The stubborn system refuses to change tasks, what should she do?I had no choice but to bare my face.
"Manager Lou, bonus incentives are necessary, but I think honor incentives have their own unique effects. Can the two be combined? For example, a newcomer like me hopes to be affirmed by the department on the way to catch up with the predecessors. Can't be the brightest star now, be a little nova... What do you think?"
Lou Tingyu held his chin with his left hand, remained silent, his eyes seemed to look into the depths through the expectant face in front of him.She thought that she might have encountered a big or small problem. She couldn't figure out what was going on in Zhou Xiaoxi's head - because she wanted to be the 'Star of the Month', was she trying to persuade her to resume the selection and revise the selection criteria?
Zhou Xiaoxi nervously waited for Lou Tingyu to think.
However, in Lou Tingyu's mind, there is a girl running in the heavy rain.
That was the reason she agreed to come with them. From the pink T-shirt Zhou Xiaoxi was wearing today and the umbrella representing rain, she remembered that figure again.Lou Tingyu didn't forget that Zhou Xiaoxi was still waiting for her to answer. She said, "Submit a report to me next week and talk about your suggestions for improving the department's employee incentive plan."
Zhou Xiaoxi nodded happily: "Okay!"
Lou Tingyu said slowly, "On Saturday, July [-]th, it rained heavily that day."
The topic changed too quickly, Zhou Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment before recalling this sentence, July [-]th... Wasn't that the day when she broke up in love!
Lou Tingyu did not miss the astonishment that flashed in Zhou Xiaoxi's eyes. "I was in Hengyue's office, and from the floor-to-ceiling windows I saw a person running in the rain on the road."
There was a thunderbolt in Zhou Xiaoxi's mind! !
Lou Tingyu saw her open her mouth and was dumbfounded. She slowly smiled, and her voice became relaxed: "The girl in pink, is that you?"
In fact, there is no need to ask further, seeing her cheeks flushed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and her hands and feet in embarrassment, Lou Tingyu got the answer she wanted.
The voice in Zhou Xiaoxi's throat had already turned into white smoke and came out of his head, like five thunderbolts, he was speechless.How can it be?How can it be!The manager actually saw it!And recognized her!No reason!
"System! You hurt me!" Zhou Xiaoxi complained with blood and tears in his head.
Noticing that Zhou Xiaoxi's eyes were watery, Lou Tingyu realized something was wrong, and immediately got her to talk, trying to rescue her from her embarrassment: "Did something happen that day?"
Zhou Xiaoxi took a breath to regain his senses, staring at Lou Tingyu, tears gradually accumulated in his eyes.That day... she fell out of love!It was also parasitized by a system!She was so dizzy from crying that she thought she was going to die, and she rushed into the heavy rain because she wanted to surrender herself before she died, and her boss's boss, such a beautiful and noble manager, saw her stupid appearance with her own eyes! ! !
It was only a "wow" from crying.
Lou Tingyu didn't expect her question to make Zhou Xiaoxi want to cry, and she was inexplicably flustered. Somehow, she mistakenly thought that the tears in Zhou Xiaoxi's eyes had already fallen, so she subconsciously reached out her hand and wiped Zhou Xiaoxi's face with her fingers, but she didn't feel any wetness. .
Hitting sideways, Zhou Xiaoxi's tears that were about to burst out were frightened back by this blow.She felt sore in her eyes, blinked twice, and continued to stare at the building to listen to the rain.
"..." Lou Tingyu withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened, "Are you all right?"
"It's okay." Not only the tears, but also the strong emotions that were bombarding her head just now were strangely frightened away. Now her hands are not shaking, her throat is clear, and she can answer questions relatively normally, "That day, Well, I'm broken in love, not sober."
"Ah." Lou Tingyu was so surprised that he nodded.
The two looked at each other silently.
Lou Tingyu smiled first, it was wider than a smile, it was a genuine and sincere smile.The flawless facial features changed because of this smile, combining into a gentle appearance.
Zhou Xiaoxi seemed to have fallen into a dream, and struggled against his instinct to struggle out. His cheeks, which had not faded from the blush, turned even more red in an instant.She smiled restrainedly, the curve of the corner of her mouth was rigid.
Ah, the floor manager touched me just now?
is that true?
Why does my face still feel like I've been touched...
I must have saved the world in my previous life!
The juice had been placed in front of him for a long time, and it had already begun to separate into layers. Zhou Xiaoxi stirred it twice with a straw, took a big sip, and swallowed it coolly, so that his heart calmed down a little.
"Zhou Xiaoxi." Seeing her confused, Lou Tingyu guessed that she had reminded her of the sadness of losing her love.
"Huh?" She looked up with a straw in her mouth.
"You are excellent, and you will meet better ones." Lou Tingyu said.
Zhou Xiaoxi grinned: "Yes."
It's not like having a grudge, I guessed wrong.Lou Tingyu thought for a while, maybe he was worried that he (boss) had an unsteady first impression of her (the newcomer) because of the scene in the rain.
"Don't feel pressure," Lou Tingyu said in his heart, "When I saw you that day, I thought you were very energetic and cute, and I had no other thoughts."
Zhou Xiaoxi lowered his head and said "um", taking drinking juice as the only serious thing at the moment.Heart beating, beating, getting more and more excited.
It's over, now my source of pressure is you saying that I am excellent, lively and cute...
[Reminder: The host's thoughts have been in chaos for 3 minutes, please clear the mind and clear the source of the confusion. 】
"System, what do you mean? Do you want me to forget that the building manager said I'm cute? It's impossible, I don't agree." Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxi immediately calmed down, "This is the most beautiful among those who praise me, I I will never forget it in my life!"
She was still very worried: "You don't have the authority to do anything with my memory, right? I solemnly warn you that you are not allowed to intervene in the matter that Manager Lou praised me for being cute, and that Manager Lou touched my face. I'll at least remember... until the next time I fall in love. Do you hear me?"
[The host please work hard to complete the task. 】
"It's really a cold system. Human beings need praise. Being affirmed by others can improve self-confidence, so I will work harder."
She glanced at Lou Tingyu, and thought quietly in her heart: beauty is the eternal motivation, your system must not understand.
I have to go to work tomorrow, so I can't play too late today.When leaving, Director Ge packed Liu Jing, Wang Li, and Zhou Xiaoxi away in a car, and sent the three of them to the subway station where they could go home conveniently. Lou Tingyu took Xiong Yan away.
Zhou Xiaoxi calculated that he made a lot of money, and only invited a meal, but came to the clubhouse for free, found a clue to complete the task, was comforted by the manager and patted his face, and finally got a sip of CP.
The two people she ate as jelly beans were talking about her.
Xiong Yan asked casually: "You and Xiaoxi stayed outside for a long time, what were you talking about?"
Lou Tingyu: "She asked me about my department's 'Star of the Month'."
Xiong Yan: "This seems to have been canceled for a long time, why would she ask this?"
"Maybe I heard Director Ge or someone mention it. I know that Wang Li has been in office many times, and she also wants to be one." Lou Tingyu glanced over, "You pay attention to Zhou Xiaoxi?"
"I like her, and I want to go shopping with her again. I can't catch her when I come back from a business trip. I work overtime every day." Xiong Yan said, "Today I want to play with her for a while and relax. Seeing that you don't come back for a long time, I will Guess you're talking about work."
Not all, and talking about their first meeting.Lou Tingyu thought about Zhou Xiaoxi's spring-like eyes, and still felt lucky that he didn't really make people cry.
"Speaking of which, Xiaoxi's popularity is very good. I think several people dote on her today." Xiong Yan was thoughtful, "If she falls in love, she should be very good at acting like a baby."
"...What are you thinking?" Why did you suddenly talk about falling in love?The jumping rhythm confused Lou Tingyu.
"It's nothing, you don't need to know." Xiong Yan smiled meaningfully, immersed in her brain.
Lou Tingyu drove silently: I don't need to know?I know that Zhou Xiaoxi ran in the heavy rain on July [-] when he lost his love, did you know that?
--------------
The author has something to say: Lou Tingyu: Fortunately, she didn't cry today.
(much later...)
Facing the wet pillow on the bed crying every night, Lou Moxi burst into tears.
