Chapter 5 Secrets Chapter 3 Birthdays and Work
After Xiaoxia came back from her hometown, she sorted out a little and went to the office to report.
The last time the Japanese ghost incident made her exhausted, and she finally took the longest sick leave in her life, which lasted for two months, and in a blink of an eye, from late winter to Chuntian.
"Well, it's a little darker, but it's much stronger." The director said with a smile, as if he was very happy that she, a backfire, returned to the elite team.
Xiaoxia hurriedly sent some local products in his hometown.
The director and her teachers and students for many years, and their leaders and subordinates for many years were not polite to her, so she took the thing and signaled her to sit down.
"Xiaoxia, you are back just in time. I'm just about to do something for you."
"Director just give me instructions." Xiao Xia looked like a good child.
"Oh, it's a job transfer."
Although the director underestimated it, Xiao Xia was still shocked!
Is her low-powered ability finally made the director unable to bear it or did she take a long sick leave? Is she going to lose her job? Or was she being sent to be a tea girl? She is a typical "moonlight" clan. She has to go to Wanli to spend a few meals at the end of each month. If she is unemployed or is demoted, will she have to wander on the streets?
"Can you transfer - that - give a chance?"
The director fiddled with the gift Xiao Xia brought him with great interest, and said without raising his head, "What opportunity is not? Do you think I want to fire you? Don't be afraid, it's just a normal job transfer!"
Normal transfer? Just like this firm, where can I transfer it? I told her not to be afraid! That's possible! A marginal character like her is very fragile. Whenever there is any disturbance, she thinks she will be in trouble.
"When you just entered the door, wasn't there someone who had just finished talking to me?"
Xiao Xia thought for a moment and nodded.
The man passed by her and nodded to each other. In her brief memory, he was a man in his thirties, neither ugly nor handsome, and had a medium figure. The rest of the impression was very blurred. To put it bluntly, he was just a very ordinary person and would not be paid special attention to.
"who is he?"
"His name is Guan Zheng. He is my former student. He is four years older than you. Strictly speaking, it is your senior." The director raised his head, "He is a very idealistic person. I have taught so many students. To be honest, he may be the one who believes in the law the most and is determined to maintain social justice."
The director said this and felt a little emotional, "When I just learned the law, there were many people who were passionate, but it was not easy to remain innocent after I devoted myself to reality. People have too much greed! Xiaoxia, do you know why I always protect you among so many students and so many employees?"
"I'm lucky!" Xiao Xia smirked.
"It's because you still have a kind and upright heart." The director smiled. "This sounds sour, but it's true. If there is someone in the office who will not be distorted for money, or who will not struggle for this, it may be you."
Xiaoxia felt that her cold sweat fell down and she flowed down her neck to her chest. Is this her own? Didn’t she say Lei Feng? She was afraid that she would have no money to buy the famous brand skirt she liked after being demoted. Now that the director said this, she really felt a little sorry for others!
She lowered her head in shame and whispered, "You are too rewarding!" But she was thinking in her heart that the skirt costs 2,000 yuan per person, which is too **! But - it's really beautiful!
But, isn’t this the director putting a trap for himself again?
"What I said is true." The director looked serious, "But let's talk about serious business. Guan Zheng has been committed to legal aid since he graduated. He was a famous top student at school, with strong legal skills and many opportunities to make big money, but he disdains those things. Compared with money, he values ideals more."
"It is indeed an understandingist, worthy of admiration." Xiao Xia said sincerely.
"Yes. It may not be easy to understand, but he is such a person. In fact, he is very chivalrous and willing to help the weak and help the poor. Over the years, he has been conducting legal publicity in the countryside with a few like-minded people and providing free legal services to vulnerable groups. He only came back last month. But, guess what he is doing here?"
"Let's visit the teacher!" Bu Xia Shun replied, but he realized in his heart that this was related to his job transfer. He really hoped that he had thought wrong, but the director's answer shattered her fantasy.
"There are some reasons for this, on the other hand -" the director looked at Xiaoxia lovingly, but Xiaoxia felt that his face was very slippery, "With the sponsorship of several consortiums, he established a chain of civil legal aid institutions, with about a dozen companies in the country, and there is also one in the city. But he doesn't have so many people, so he came to me to poach people, hoping to find a young man with a sense of justice and strength to support his righteous deeds."
Xiao Xia immediately had hallucinations before her eyes, and saw with her own eyes that the beautiful skirt was ashes like a punished soul.
"I think you are the most suitable for the whole firm." The director finally came up with the main topic.
"That-I have a sense of justice. As for strength-I am still a little self-aware." Xiao Xia said with struggle.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to do legal aid. She rushes to do every time there is such a case in the firm, because she likes to help others, and is soft-hearted and will not refuse others. She is very willing to help the weak.
But if she was asked to leave here and go to work elsewhere, then she made another mistake and probably no one could tolerate her. More importantly, in this aid agency that relies on private sponsorship to pay, her habit of spending money and making big money seems to have to be changed, and her beautiful clothes will be forever farewell to her.
And her pitiful little savings, she spent all her gifts to give those two stinky men!
well--
"Don't say that, you are just not confident! You have a careless personality. If you are more serious, you will definitely be a good lawyer. You are actually a chivalrous girl, which just meets Guan Zheng's requirements."
"I remember that the heroes are all very poor!" Xiao Xia murmured.
She thought the director would not hear it, but although the director was not young, he could not fall into a sentence he should have heard.
"Oh, I'm worried about economic problems!" The director laughed, "You don't have to worry about this. Although you work in his legal aid agency, your personnel relationship is still in the air. Your five insurances, one fund and salary are all paid to you in the institute."
Yes? There is also this good thing?! An unexpected joy!
Xiao Xia’s personality that is not good at concealing makes her smile appear on her face, and she also has a little surprise!
In this way, she can not only do the job she likes to help others without having to be as depressed as she is in Changkong, but her economic conditions have not changed! Of course, there must be no aid agencies in terms of winning bonuses, but she can't get much in Changkong, which is not a loss!
Wearing a beautiful dress and dressing up to help the weak is really a bit like a heroine!
"Are you happy now?" The director couldn't help but feel funny when he looked at Xiao Xia's childishness that had not changed since his school days, but his mood was also inspired by her. Thinking that he would not be angry every day, he felt helpless.
Xiao Xia nodded violently, "Thank you, teacher. As expected, the teacher has the ability to know what materials are placed where they are, and to be good at responsibilities." She flattered without shame, "I must do my best for legal justice." She swore that she forgot the high salary she was unwilling to leave here just because of a skirt.
"Well, I often come to see me in the future. Don't just come on the day of paycheck. Now go and clean up!" He took out a business card from the drawer, "I'll call Guan Zheng now and tell him that I have someone to choose. You will go to this place tomorrow." After that, he gave a few more instructions before he asked Xiaoxia to go out.
Through the floor-to-ceiling glass door in the office, the director was also very happy to see Xiao Xia’s happy appearance. He wanted Xiao Xia to live a happier life, and he could not be dissatisfied with many subordinates for the mistake of always protecting her. He killed two birds with one stone. It was a good idea!
………………………………
When Xiao Xia returned home with her tidy things, she found that someone had arrived in the room without invitation.
"Hey, is this your house or my house? Why are you going in and out at will?" Xiao Xia stared at the intruder, who was sitting comfortably on her sofa, eating the delicious food her mother brought her, and there was no intention of helping her with heavy objects.
"We are so united and friendly, your home is mine." Wanli said, glanced at the key on the coffee table. It was the last time they lived in Xiaoxia's house together.
"How do you know I'm back today?"
"Call my aunt and she also asked me when I will marry you."
Xiao Xia gave him a blank look!
"Don't you miss me?" Wanli asked with some anticipation.
"I don't want to." Xiao Xia was distracted.
Can you not think about it? I haven’t seen you for more than two months! Not only did she think about Wanli, but another man made her feel distressed. After all, Wanli called her, but Ruan Zhan ignored her for two months.
This made her confused. Does he like himself? Why do she sometimes feel that he is so good to her, far beyond the boundaries of friends, and sometimes she is so cold to her, as if she does not exist in this world.
"Don't want to?"
"Is there any benefit to miss you?" Xiao Xia also sat on the sofa and squeezed Wanli to the side.
"I knew you were snob." Wanli used a tissue to wipe his hands and took out a small box from his pocket. "You celebrated your birthday this time at home, so you will be given a birthday gift after you."
Xiaoxia smiled on her face, not because of the gift, but because Wanli would remember her birthday.
"Look at you, I smiled so hard that I couldn't see the eyes when I saw the gift. I didn't know how fierce he was to me just now!"
"Women all like gifts!" Xiao Xia made a statement.
When I opened the box, I saw that it turned out to be a latest women's phone. "No wonder you didn't let me buy a phone. I said that the price was about to be reduced. As expected, you can get it without spending a penny! But this is too expensive!"
"I am rewarding you with your phone as a weapon and hit the evil nurse in anger."
Xiao Xia ignored him and fiddled with his new phone for a while, but she was still very moved by Wanli's carefulness. He remembered her birthday and knew what she needed. He was a caring and good man, and any woman would definitely be very happy to get his love.
But she could accept such expensive things without blinking because she prepared the same gift. Last time Ruan Zhan broke Wanli's phone, she told Wanli that she had friends who could buy a new phone at the price of the appearance and told him not to buy it. She originally wanted to give it to them.
She said as she ran into the room and took out something - it was two identical men's cell phones.
"It seems that we are really in tune with each other, even the excuses are the same." Wanli was so amused and crying, "But you forgot that Azhan never uses a mobile phone, and you won't choose two different colors, so you're so stupid!"
"The numbers are different." Xiaoxia answered casually. She thought to herself, she didn't care whether Ruan Zhan used her cell phone or not, anyway, she hoped to contact him at any time.
But - doesn't he remember his birthday?
It seemed as if to respond to her heart, Wanli took out something from her arms - it was an ordinary envelope.
"What is this?" Xiao Xia took it suspiciously, "Did you write a love letter to me?"
"You can consider the issue of love letters. But this is not. This is the late birthday gift that Azhan gave you."
A trace of sweetness immediately surged into Xiaoxia's heart.
It turns out that what he remembered, he also remembered her birthday! He had her in his heart, even if he was just a good friend. In his distant and cold heart, she would be there!
I just think it's very light, but heavier than normal letters, so it should be a small hard object -
She was about to open the envelope, but Wanli stopped her.
"Say it in advance, don't cry." He said seriously, "Although he didn't spend a penny, the things he gave are what you want the most. This guy looks like, and he will coax girls more than anyone else, and he will compare me."
"I'm mysterious, I don't believe you!" Xiao Xia pulled Wanli's hand off and poured out the items inside from the envelope.
A jade-like amulet of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva lay quietly in her palm, as white as jade, as if it was filled with holy light, and even the tied red rope was carefully replaced.
Although Xiaoxia's Fan's eyes could not see anything, she still recognized it as the amulet she threw on the hillside. She was very sure that this was the relic left to her by NaiNai, and she had been feeling extremely distressed about its loss.
Now, Ruan Zhan returns it to her!
She reminded herself not to cry, but tears were still filled with her eyes.
"After you left, because the frightened women in Xiaowang Village need psychological treatment and elimination of evil spirits, I go there every weekend to do psychological counseling." Wanli explained, "And Ruan Zhan almost always lives there. On the one hand, he used the hypnosis therapy for those victims in the name of a psychologist, but in fact he was doing feudal superstition while the people were not careful. On the other hand, he drew a range of the mountain where you lost the amulet that day, and also calculated the possibility of drifting after melting the snow. Then, like selling advertisements online, he drew countless grids and lying there three feet digging the ground. He went about five or six hours a day. After searching for two months, he really found it!"
Xiao Xia couldn't speak, and her heart was full of energy.
She said nothing, how could Ruan Zhan know about the loss of her amulet? And he didn't say anything to her, just pretended not to know, but silently found her for her!
She suddenly remembered a poem:
If all the wanderings are because of me
我如何能
I don't love you Fengshuang's face
If you have all the sorrows in the world
Try how I can
I don't love you a haggard heart
They said you're old
As hard as rock and extremely cold
But no one knows that I am you
The softest corner in the deepest
With tears and cannot be touched
At this moment, she was sure that Ruan Zhan had her in her heart. Even if it was not love, it could not be considered a simple friendship, at least it was good feelings. Then she had to implement her plan to surround the city in the countryside.
She wanted to approach him from the periphery and accidentally until he couldn't live without her!
Is this a trap? She doesn't know.
She only knew that men like Ruan Zhan could not force them too fast, otherwise he would slip away. So, she would surround him bit by bit!
