Chapter 42： I think too much

When I saw the name displayed under the string of numbers, I immediately deleted the string of numbers.

What can I say even if it is called? Explain that I went to dinner with Fu Zhensheng today. It was just polite? Or, even if I ate with Fu Zhensheng, I didn't reveal anything about him?

No matter what he said, he didn't seem to know how to speak.

After thinking about it, I put my phone aside and watched the funny variety show on TV, but couldn't laugh at all.

When I went to work the next day, as soon as I reached the elevator entrance, Fang Qi mysteriously pulled aside: "Lin Xi, I heard that you got in Fu Zong’s car yesterday! I didn’t expect your relationship with Fu Zong. It's so good. I heard that no one in the company has ever used his car, not even his secretary."

I was stunned. I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly, even Fang Qi knew.

"President Fu has something to do with me, and I explain my work to him in the car."

Randomly found a reason to prevaricate, not wanting Fang Qi to think too much about this matter.

"Really? Are you not President Chu's secretary? How could you explain work to President Fu?"

Fang Qi revealed his doubts in his tone, and I quickly explained: "Fu and Chu always have some contacts at work."

As expected, Fang Qi didn't ask any further, but pulled me with a grin: "Don't talk about this for now, Lin Xi, I heard that General Chu's secretary's office is going to be promoted internally again. Can you help me say something nice?"

Then, her tone changed: "You also know the situation in my family. My mother is not in good health recently and needs a lot of medical expenses."

"This matter depends on President Chu's attitude. As you know, I am just a little secretary, and my words cannot affect President Chu."

I showed an expression of helplessness, smart as Fang Qi, and I should know what I mean.

It’s just that I’m very surprised. I’ve been in the secretary's office, but I haven’t heard anything about the promotion of a new secretary. But Fang Qi knew in advance.

"Oh, I understand, I just want to try. If it can't, even if it doesn't, I can't trouble you too much."

Fang Qi showed a clear look and continued to hold my hand. At exactly this time the elevator door opened, and she walked in with me and said nothing.

As soon as I walked to the secretary's room, I felt that the atmosphere today seemed a bit depressed.

On weekdays, the colleagues in the secretary's room occasionally chat and talk about work matters, but today there is quiet everywhere, no one speaks at all.

I looked around and nothing seemed unusual. As usual, I went back to my desk and just sat down when I saw Fang Fang walking towards me.

She put a document on my desk, her tone a little blunt: "Assistant Shen said, let you come to his office."

"This document was also given to you by Assistant Shen. It is a list of the most recent clients. In addition, there will be a dinner tonight, and you and Mr. Chu need to be present together."

I took the file and said "thank you". When I was about to put the file away and go to Shen Ran's office, I heard Fang Fang speak again: "Lin Xi, although I'm just a colleague, I still have to remind you, since It is President Chu’s assistant, so he should pay attention to what he should do and what he should say."

I was startled to realize that Fang Fang was talking about yesterday: "Yes, I know."

Anyway, Fang Fang is my senior in the secretary's room.

Perhaps because my attitude satisfied Fang Fang, she just took a look at me and then left my desk.

I came to Shen Ran's office and knocked on the door. After hearing him say "Please come in" all the time, I opened the door and walked in.

When he entered, he was looking at the file, and his expression of anxiety appeared on his face from time to time. When he saw me, his expression was relaxed.

"Linxi, Linxi, how many times do you want me to tell you before you understand? I had dinner with President Fu yesterday and I was hit by President Chu!"

Shen Ran looked at me with a hatred of iron but not steel.

"What happened yesterday was indeed what I did wrong. Assistant Shen, this kind of thing will never happen in the future. But I can guarantee that when President Fu and I were having dinner, we talked about private matters and had nothing to do with business matters. "

What Shen Ran worries most is that Fu Zhensheng and I will inadvertently disclose work matters when chatting. But from beginning to end yesterday, Fu Zhensheng never talked to me about work.

"You never thought, why would President Chu appear in that restaurant? Lin Xi, I thought you were a smart person, but I didn't expect you to even know this thing!"

Shen Ran looked at me with a hint of disappointment. I thought about what happened yesterday. Yesterday Chu Xingzhi went to the restaurant to see customers. It should be an official arrangement.

Because of my illness, the work of those days was assigned to other colleagues. As the president of the company, Fu Zhensheng wants to know the whereabouts of Chu Xingzhi, it is not difficult.

Didn’t Fu Zhensheng take me to that restaurant for no reason, as Shen Ran said?

Did he deliberately show it to Chu Xingzhi?

Thinking of this level, I was also a little confused. I didn't expect Fu Zhensheng to have such a purpose.

"I'm sorry, Assistant Shen, I was reckless in this matter."

I looked at Shen Ran with some guilt. I did not think of this level yesterday. It was only because I thought of him that I could not bear to refuse.

"In addition, let me tell you a piece of news. President Chu has decided to promote two more secretaries from within. You know those two people, Fang Qi and Lin Xue."

Shen Ran sighed: "The work of the three of you will be redistributed at that time. But I still have to remind you that you may only be left behind for the three of you. As for the other two, you can only be eliminated. "

Shen Ran's words made my heart stunned.

Eliminated? !

The promotion from the sales department to the secretary's office has a trial period. But I did not expect that Chu Xingzhi would make such a decision.

Is it because of the meal with Fu Zhensheng yesterday?

"Don't look at me like this. Wanding has always been such a cruel elimination system. Those who can stay are of course the elite. Lin Xi, since you want to stay in Wanding, you must adapt to Wanding's system."

Shen Ran may have seen my shock at the moment, and his tone was somewhat meaningful.

Coming out of Shen Ran's office, I felt a little depressed.

Chu Xingzhi's decision made me understand one thing. My position can be anyone, not necessarily me.

The two people he chose, Lin Xue and Fang Qi, made me more sure that this was his test of me.

Back at the desk, I opened the file Fang Fang gave me. It contained information about Ding Ye.

After Chu Xingzhi agreed to cooperate with Ding Ye last time, he signed the contract within a few days. Today’s dinner should be about discussing the specific content of the project.

I tried my best to focus on the information on the file, but calm words appeared in my mind from time to time, making me unable to concentrate.

The phone on the desk rang. I looked at the caller number on it. It turned out to be the number of Chu Xingzhi's office.

Immediately press the answer button, and his cold voice came: "Come to my office."

As cold as always, no emotions can be heard.

"Yes."

Hanging up the phone, I came to his office door with some anxiety.

Shen Ran just saw me, so he called to find me, what did he want to tell me?

Ask me about the meal with Fu Zhensheng yesterday? Soon, I rejected this idea in my heart. With his character, he would never ask such things.

Knocked on the door and walked in.

When entering, Chu Xingzhi was answering the phone. When I was about to go out and wait for him to finish talking, he had already hung up.

"Chu, what are you looking for?"

When I stood in front of his office, I had taken a deep breath several times, but my voice still trembled a little when facing him.

"Tonight's dinner with Master Ding, please prepare well."

Chu Xingzhi looked up at me, then looked down at the file in his hand.

I was a little startled, he told me to come in, just to tell me about this?

Fang Fang has already told me about this, so it's okay for him to call me in and tell me this, right?

I remembered what Shen Ran said. I gritted my teeth and couldn't help but say: "Mr. Chu, are you dissatisfied with my work recently?"

As soon as I spoke, I felt a little regretful. But since I asked, I can't take it back.

"Why do you say that?"

Chu Xingzhi finally put down the file in his hand, and looked at me in time. It is still a face of ten thousand years iceberg, without any happiness or anger.

"The original establishment of the secretary's office is enough, but you appointed Lin Xue and Fang Qi to compete with me in the secretary's office, so I think there is something wrong with my work?"

Since Chu Xingzhi asked so, I can only continue.

"Are you scared? Or do you think it is necessary for me to pay such a big setback for you as a secretary?"
