Yang Sheng put down the cup and reached out to ruffle her hair.
"What are you thinking? Why can’t you tell ? Do you think I’m that kind of person? I just thought that Rui had already made arrangents for you, but it seems not. Let ask around for you this afternoon. What kind of job are you looking for? Secretary? Or sothing in line with your field?"
Yang Sheng was quite tactful, asking her a series of questions but never once questioning her urgency in finding a job.
Le Tong smiled apologetically for misunderstanding him, "Anything works, anyway, I’ll just give it a try."
Yang Sheng widened his eyes, "Try everything? Do you think you have three heads and six arms?"
"Isn’t there going to be an interview? I have to choose people, and they have to choose , right?"
Yang Sheng rolled his eyes at her, "Are you stupid? If you need to interview, why co to ? Just apply yourself. As long as President Ji doesn’t stop you, I guarantee you can start work this week, though the salary might be slightly less than at the Ji Family."
At Yang Sheng’s ntion, Le Tong rembered this matter. Previously she hadn’t cared much about it, but now thinking about it, no wonder everyone she ran into at the Ji Family asked, "Tongtong, finally done with your vacation?"
Turns out, in the eyes of the Ji Family’s employees, she was still employed.
"I’ll talk to him later, it shouldn’t be a problem."
Regarding this matter, Le Tong hadn’t cared before, thinking she wouldn’t work in R City for the next couple of years. Now, with Baobao needing her care, instinctively, Ji Rui shouldn’t be stopping her.
"Alright, once you sort out the resignation procedures, I’ll arrange it for you imdiately."
Le Tong thought this was a sure thing, little did she know that the developnt of things was far beyond her expectations.
After having lunch with Yang Sheng and returning to the Ji Family, Le Tong happily knocked on Ji Rui’s office door.
Pushing open the door, stepping into a space she hadn’t been in for over six months, everything inside seed unchanged from when she was there. Looking at the familiar office setup and the familiar expressionless face behind the desk, Le Tong couldn’t help sighing repeatedly.
Looking at these unchanged people and things before her, scenes from the Ji Family were as clear as yesterday in her mind. Only, while the characters were the sa, her feelings had changed drastically.
"Mr. Ji!"
First, the title was different. Before, she called him President, now, it was Mr. Ji.
Though it referred to the sa person, only those listening and calling would understand the vast difference it implied.
Ji Rui nodded slightly at her, "Sit down, they’ll be here at two." By ’they’, he ant the bank staff.
After saying so, Ji Rui continued burying himself in his work.
Le Tong didn’t follow his instructions to sit in the reception room but stood in front of the desk.
She knew this man had the skill to multitask, even if occupied, he could still divert his attention to handle other matters. For instance, she often reported work progress or schedules to him while he was engrossed in work before.
"Mr. Ji, I want to go to the HR departnt to complete the resignation procedure, please inform the manager."
Le Tong didn’t think at this point the man had any intention of wanting her back, and she certainly didn’t have such intentions either.
Ji Rui suddenly raised his head, his piercing gaze landing on her face as if trying to read her inner thoughts.
"Why?"
"I need to find a job..." Le Tong patiently explained, but before she could finish, Ji Rui frowned and impatiently interrupted her.
"Let’s talk about this later. Can’t you see I’m overwheld here?"
Le Tong glanced at the pile of docunts in front of him, knowing he was just using it as an excuse, but she didn’t expose him and turned to sit in the reception room, casually picking up a financial magazine on the coffee table and flipping through.
After flipping a few pages, she heard the man asking.
"Where did you go just now?"
"Went for lunch with Senior Brother."
Flipping through the magazine in her hands, Le Tong answered honestly, not seeing any need to hide it.
Ji Rui was also focused on his work. Upon hearing her answer, he lifted his head and squinted at her.
"Where’s Baobao?" Ji Rui’s tone was not pleasant, making no effort to hide his dissatisfaction.
The man was a bit angry; Le Tong naturally knew this. Although she felt his anger was unfounded, she had long learned to ignore his sudden fury and continued flipping through the magazine.
"He’s asleep. I told him I needed to deal with so things at the office. Brother Hui and the others are there, no need to worry."
Baobao is actually a very independent child. Don’t even ntion leaving him at ho; even in a crowd full of strangers, he can entertain himself.
So, after explaining things clearly and getting his consent, leaving him at ho alone wasn’t a big deal.
Seeing him keeping silent, Le Tong added, "I’ll try to persuade him to go ho this afternoon. Staying with indeed has many inconveniences."
Le Tong was worried that her ho was too basic and that the spoiled Baobao wouldn’t be used to it. Besides, her air conditioning seed to have so cooling issues. It sounded loudly all day but took forever to lower the room temperature.
Originally, her words ca from concern for Baobao, and she thought Ji Rui also wanted Baobao to go ho sooner.
Who knew, upon hearing her words, Ji Rui’s eyes turned cold, and he snorted.
"What, is Baobao bothering you?"
Le Tong couldn’t help suspecting there was sothing wrong with the feng shui here. Otherwise, why did Ji Rui always speak so sarcastically whenever he returned to this office?
It was like this before, and now it is still the sa.
"Mr. Ji, this is my private matter; it’s none of your business!"
Le Tong’s feelings, deliberately misconstrued by him, also made her a bit angry, and her tone naturally got a bit sharp.
Their relationship, having sowhat eased due to the house purchase deal, easily plumted to rock bottom again due to a few of Ji Rui’s indifferent words.
Both of them fell silent, knowing that one more step forward would definitely result in one of them exploding.
Fortunately, the two bank officials and the hoowner arrived half an hour early, causing the two, who were each stewing in their own angered silence, to redirect their attention to the mortgage transaction.
The efficiency of the two staff mbers was incredibly high; it only took a little over an hour to complete what would normally take several days to handle, all for Le Tong. They just needed to go with the hoowner to the property bureau to complete the buying and selling procedure. The subsequent tasks, the staff promised to thoroughly manage on-site.
In this way, sothing that had weighed on Le Tong’s mind for years got resolved like a dream, all in less than a day.
Seeing off the staff and hoowner, Le Tong still felt everything was unreal, and her previous frustration disappeared anonymously.
"Mr. Ji, thank you!"
Le Tong didn’t know what to say to thank him, so she could only repeat this simple sentence.
Ji Rui didn’t directly respond to her words, just gave her a deep look, "Le Tong, co back, okay?"
[Baobao is so cute! Baobao here thanks all the equally cute sisters for their comnts, votes, and tips, muaaahh, Baobao loves you all the most!! Flying kiss...]
