"It's not over yet, I slipped out. You're right. I shouldn't have come to such a party. This is a waste of time. " I called vomiting in the snow and walked into the underground parking lot.

He is also busy recently, and the group is unwilling to let him leave immediately. He is not the kind of person who can leave without being laid off, so the preparations for the new company are in the evenings and weekends.

I talked with Xue Zhong and hung up the phone. I looked up and saw a young man and a young woman walking in front of me. This woman is slightly fat, wearing a hazy blue dress. The back is familiar.

"Hey, Wang Yi, don't go," she reached for the tall man beside her. "It's not good for us to leave like this. We are all friends ... "

"What friend?" The man seemed very angry and shook her off hard. "This kind of person just likes you as a friend. Besides, it's just people in the purchasing circle. Usually there is nothing in common. What's the point of eating and drinking with these people? "

"Are peers, make more friends ..."

She was interrupted by a man before she finished. "Then your so-called friend teased me, didn't you see?"

"You take people home as friends, the somebody else when you? But if I have a little respect for you, can you lick your boyfriend in front of you? "

The girl choked, "People don't necessarily mean that ... just kidding."

The man stopped and turned to look at her. "Don, are you silly? A woman, joking with someone else's boyfriend, will ask,' Are all your soldiers as good as you?' Oh, can I touch your abdominal muscles? Fuck her! Go home and touch your man! "

It's the girl I know, I sighed.

"They went a little too far ... but we were embarrassed to leave, and later ..." Tang was still trying to persuade her boyfriend to go back.

"Later, do you still want to have a future? Such a friend, what are you doing here? I only have a few days off a year, and I don't even go home to accompany you. And the result? Dealing with your friends every day, I tell you, Don, I've had enough! Now think for yourself, and the rest of the time, either the two of us can do whatever we want, or you can accompany them to play with me! "

The man's hands are around his waist, and his chest is undulating. It seems that he can't stand it.

Tang still hesitated, "Wang Yi ..."

"Yes, I know!" Wang Yi interrupted her, turned and strode to the exit of the parking lot. "Go ahead, I won't keep you."

The figure soon disappeared, and in the dim light of the parking lot, Tang slowly lowered his head, making the whole person look helpless.

I sighed again and called her name.

She looked back at me, her round baby face collapsed and her eyes were as red as rabbits. She shouted "Sister Su …" and jumped into my arms.

Tang joined the company a few months ago. His position is overseas procurement.

She was hired because her English is better among the candidates with engineering background. Among the candidates majoring in English, she has an engineering background. Therefore, Dai Yong, the department manager, has high expectations for her, hoping that she can do overseas procurement and train her to be the head of this team in the future.

Later, at a meeting, I met and casually asked Tang how his work was doing. Dai Yong hesitated, as if thinking about how to express it. After a while, he said, "The enthusiasm is quite high, but it's a little ... too gregarious."

I smiled. "isn't it a good thing to fit in?"

I don't know the rest. Anyway, my parents wanted me to get along with others since I was a child. For example, like other girls, I even need a partner to go to the bathroom. But I'm probably not born with this material, and my attitude towards people is always distinct. People who like can't wait to give their hearts to others, and people who don't like can hide as far as possible.

This problem was removed after HR, after all, work needs to maintain good relations with most people.

Dai Yong shook his head with a wry smile. "I don't know what to say. Anyway, Manager Su, you will understand by paying more attention to this girl. "

Unexpectedly, before I paid attention to this girl, by chance, I found that the word "too gregarious" was used well.

I was a little busy at work during that time. In order to save time for eating and have a good nap, I began to bring my own lunch. One day, just after work at noon, I was going to wash my hands. As soon as I went out, I met several girls chattering and saying that I wanted to try the newly-opened Thai food.

"Sister Su," someone shouted to me as they passed by. I turned around and saw Don smiling at me in the crowd. "Let's go together. It's my treat today. "

"No, I brought lunch." Halfway through, I remembered seeing her in the teahouse this morning, so I asked, "Didn't you bring rice, too?" Why do you want to eat out? "

Tang's face was embarrassed, and a girl next to him said, "Christina, why didn't you say you brought food earlier?" So it is the same for us to go tomorrow. "

Another girl said, "Oh, they say to live in the present. How can I wait until tomorrow to eat delicious food? " ? You can eat the food you bring at night. "

"Yes, yes, it's the same at night." Tang immediately said to him, "Sister Su, so is yours. Let's go together. "

Come and help me.

I left in a hurry. "You are quick to go. I want to have a rest after dinner. "

Later, I heard from my colleagues at the dinner that the curry shrimp in that restaurant was particularly delicious, and they ordered a large portion. But I remember that Don said in the office that she was allergic to curry.

Visible even if she treat, others didn't pay attention to her preferences, the money is not worth it, I sighed slightly.

At the end of work the next afternoon, an overseas project coordination meeting was held temporarily. I was also asked to attend the meeting because of personnel arrangements.

Don is sitting next to me.

"The arrival time of the equipment over there must be guaranteed, and customers attach great importance to it," said the sales colleague, turning his eyes to our side. "Christina, are you okay over there?"

Tang lowered his head and tapped his fingers on the mobile phone screen quickly, but he didn't answer him.

I touched her with my elbow and she seemed to wake up suddenly. "What?"

That colleague was a little unhappy, but he repeated his own question. Tang nodded. "Oh, no problem. We have already checked with the supplier."

I turned to look at her, and Yu Guang glanced at her mobile phone screen. A WeChat came in: "When will you arrive?" My nephew will graduate soon. "

Tang pursed her lips, looked around again, leaned in and whispered, "Sister Su, how long do you think this meeting will last?"

"Guess, if there is no problem, it may take half an hour, or it may be open until evening. It depends on how many problems need to be implemented. " I said.

Her little face collapsed and the pen unconsciously scribbled on the notebook. "Is that so?"

"You have something?"

In fact, I don't understand why these young girls are so busy, and they are more anxious to take their children home than I am a married woman.

"Well," put his hand in Tang's mouth, "my nephew is in junior high school, and his grades are good, but his English is poor. She heard that my English was good and asked me to make up lessons for her nephew. Her nephew's school is nearby. I drove to pick him up from school after work and went to his house for 2 hours. "

"Are you still a part-time tutor?" I frown.

Tang quickly explained, "No, no, Sister Su. Just a favor, a good relationship. "

I haven't done my own thing. Yesterday, Dai Yong and I talked. That way, I still have time to help others. I feel speechless.

"Don, Mr. Lin asked you something?"

The male colleague sitting on the other side quietly reminded Tang.

"Ah?" She looked up with a blank face.

Deputy general manager Lin's face sank. "Are you in charge of overseas procurement?"

Busy hai-qing tang nodded, "yes, s .. I'm sorry, I just ..."

"I ask you, if there is a problem with equipment transportation, is it too late to re-deliver?"

She probably didn't think of this problem, and sweat oozed from her nose.

The mobile phone on the desk suddenly vibrates and a voice call request comes in. "Oh, well, I'm sorry." Don hurriedly hung up the phone. "I will confirm this matter with the supplier immediately."

The shop assistant swept her one eye, then at the purchasing manager Dai Yong. "What are you doing? Can't this little thing be communicated clearly in advance? "

"This is my problem." Dai Yong quickly said, "I will personally follow up this matter in the future. Don't worry, nothing will happen. "

Don lowered his head and his face flushed. I patted her hand and said softly, "Nothing, just wait for it."

She turned to look at me and frowned together. "Sister Su ... I'm dead this time."

When the meeting ended, it was more than an hour later.

As soon as I got back to the office area where our department and the purchasing department shared an office, Tang called, "Sorry, I didn't expect to open the door at this time ... I didn't mean to hang up on you ... Hey, don't be angry. Tomorrow, I will be on time. "

When she hung up the phone, Dai Yong's face was dark.

"Hai-qing tang, you don't pit me a day you uncomfortable? Didn't I tell you the importance of this project? As a result, you can't even think of the traffic problem, or your mind is not at work at all? "

"I, yong elder brother, I was wrong. I am really sorry. " Don shrank his neck like a child who had done something wrong.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, can you say something else?" Dai Yong and Yu Nu have not disappeared. "Come to the company for so long, the equipment model is often mistaken, and I can't remember what the parameters mean. Walking at the scene after work every day makes overseas colleagues often complain to me that I can't find you if I'm not careful. Tang Haiqing, what can I say about you? "

"I decided to recruit you. Didn't you do this in my face? "

Don told, his head drooping. "Yong elder brother, I will contact the supplier as soon as I go to work tomorrow. Please give me some more time and I will do it well. "

"I always give you some time. I don't think there is enough time for you to waste. " With that, Dai Yong turned and walked to the office. "Come on, this is the last time. If I see this happen to you again, you can stay where you are. "

I watched him enter the office and turned to ask Don, "Don't you help others make up lessons?"

She shook her head. "It's tomorrow."

"Then come to my office for a cup of coffee first? My family leader brought it back from a business trip to Vietnam. Don't you like coffee, too? " I patted her on the shoulder.

Don bit his lip and looked at me. He stood up and followed me.

"Actually, I wanted to talk to you yesterday." I made her a cup of coffee.

"Sister Su," she said, "do you think I can do nothing?"

I smiled. "That's not true."

"But I want to ask you, are you happy to get together with everyone every day and help others after work?"

Tang Zheng, "still ... ok."

I nodded. "I think you spend too much time on interpersonal communication, but you don't spend enough energy on the work itself. In my opinion, this is to give up the basics. "

Don looked at me, and from her expression, I knew she disagreed.

"Sister Su," she said hesitantly, "can't you say that?"

"I am also learning knowledge at work. However, as the old saying goes, there are many friends and people are in society. Not sure when they need help from others. "

"I don't usually associate with others. How can others be willing to help you at a critical moment? "

"Do you think so?" I walked around the table with my cup, leaned next to her and looked at her slightly. "Christina, I think there are only two kinds of interpersonal communication in this society."

"One is a sincere friend. You know each other, even if you have little contact, you may not even say a few words a year, but when one party needs it, the other party will definitely support it without saying anything. "

"The other is the exchange of resources, requiring both sides to be equal, which means that I will help you this time. What I care about is not whether we are often together, but whether I can get equivalent or even higher value feedback from you in the future. "

"Do you think you spend so much time with colleagues, classmates, peers, and even people in various circles to help this and that? What do they have to do with you? How are you treating them? "

After I finished, Tang stared at me in shock.

"You want to say that you are so realistic?" I smiled. "Well, I'm sorry I scared you. But I hope you can think about it, plan your time and do what you should do first. "

One thing about this girl, Tang, is that she is not sharp to people and will not protect herself too much. If you give her advice, she will seriously consider it.

So the next Monday, when she came to discuss with me with her own promotion plan, I was very pleased.

Don told me that she wanted to take the IELTS test. Because of communication with overseas suppliers, her English is still not enough. She wants to improve herself through the exam.

She also said that she would like to familiarize herself with all the equipment lists in the company's procurement catalogue, so that she can have a clear idea when placing a purchase order and make a systematic analysis of the procurement situation at the end of the year.

In addition, Tang also wants to be a registered buyer. She thinks that if she wants to make purchasing a lifelong career in the future, she must take the road of specialization.

I turned over a few pages of her printed study schedule and nodded to her. "The task is not light, come on, come to me if you need help."

The little girl was encouraged and left happily.

Then I heard that she signed up for several classes at night and often rushed to class at night. Dai Yong seems to be quite happy about this, joking with me that it is good for this girl to find a boyfriend in the army, otherwise she is too busy to fall in love.

About two weeks later, Xue Zhong made an appointment with investors for dinner. I had to go because the other party brought a wife.

Don walked to the parking lot and ran from behind. I thought she wanted to see me, so I stopped to look back at her.

"Sister Su." She looks a little unnatural.

"Go to class?" I asked.

"Well," she lowered her head and fiddled with the car keys in her hand, "Juanjuan and I went out for dinner ... a friend of theirs had a birthday, and I heard that she used to work in our company."

That's weird. What does a friend do for her birthday?

So I asked.

Don touched his hair and smiled awkwardly. "I don't have a car? It is not convenient for them to take a taxi during rush hour ... "

"So?"

"... there's nothing wrong with going together ... just make one more friend. "She whispered," Sister Su, I'll go first. They are still waiting for me. I haven't bought a gift yet. "

I watched the girl run away and shook my head and sighed.

Forget it, just a colleague. I said what I had to say. What she does is her own choice. As long as it doesn't affect her work, it has nothing to do with me.

I haven't paid much attention to Don since then. Sometimes I see them going shopping, watching movies or shopping in groups. They seem to get along really well.

I gradually think that maybe we can live on our own. As Xue Zhong said, we may use the sophistication of adults to understand the hearts of young people and make a mistake.

Until this time, I met Don in the underground parking lot and was dumped by my boyfriend, so I had to take her to my car to chat.

"Don't blame him for being angry," Don scoffed. "He finally had a holiday, and we had already planned how to spend it. But he has been back for four or five days, and we haven't done anything ourselves, but we drag him to join in the fun with others every day. "

"Do you know it's fun?" I shook my head. "Christina, do you really like this?"

Her eyes are blank. "Sister Su, actually I don't know."

"Sometimes I feel very tired when I am not interested in what they are talking about and have to rack my brains to find a topic. But sometimes I think it broadens my horizons. Maybe my own life is too monotonous. "

"broaden your horizons?" I asked, "What new things did you hear? I will listen to them. "

Don cocked his head and thought for a long time. "It seems that there is a newly opened online celebrity store, and it doesn't matter which city you want to punch in."

"Christina," I patted her on the back, "time is precious for everyone. You spend it on these meaningless parties. You know a lot of people, but you don't have your own time. "

"What you originally planned to do, whether to improve yourself or to enhance your feelings with your boyfriend, is the capital of your future life, not these so-called friends and connections, you know?"

She frowned and struggled. "Sister Sue, I have seriously thought about what you said last time. I think even if we exchange relationships, we will make more friends now, that is, invest. When I need help, after all, everyone is so familiar and will not categorically refuse. "

"Whether you will refuse depends on whether you deserve help." I smiled. "Have you ever heard the saying that when flowers bloom, butterflies come naturally?" . If you are valuable, you don't have to invest so much now, and naturally someone will help you, and vice versa. what do you think? "

She was silent for a long time. "I don't know. Maybe I'm really wrong. I will think about it. But Sister Su, what should I do now? "

"Are you asking about interpersonal communication or how to coax your boyfriend?" I looked at the approaching boots in the rearview mirror and smiled.

"Oh, who wants to coax him?" Tang was embarrassed. "I just think I should apologize. Anyway, I made him unhappy. He was stationed on the island at ordinary times and finally came back ... "

"I know, I know," I stroked her hair and pulled her out of the car, pointing to the man standing behind my car. "Go home and apologize."

"Sister Su," she went to see her boyfriend again. "How did you come back?"

My boyfriend Tang and I nodded and said angrily to her, "Don't let you drink, do you have to drink? You drive if I don't come back? "

Don giggled, said goodbye to me, and was taken away by her boyfriend holding hands.

I looked at the back of two people and sighed. What a pity to lose such a long-legged brother. I just don't know if this girl can understand.

Sometimes, people have to go through something to see the truth.

The next afternoon, I came back from the interview. As soon as I entered the door, I met Tang and the librarian's sister and walked quickly in the direction of the warehouse. As they walked, they whispered something, and both of them looked nervous.

I looked at their backs, and the more I looked at them, the more I felt something was wrong. My intuition tells me that these two people may be in trouble, so I have to follow them.
