C38 Buying a Gift to Return the Favor
Qi Jia looked at Qiao Lu's excited face and shook her head without saying a word. She thought to herself,'If you keep going like this, it won't be surprising for your year-end bonus to be a half-mountain villa.'
The two of them went up the escalator to the women's clothing department. The two of them looked from one to the other. Qiao Lu picked out a white dress and waved it in front of him as he asked, "Hey, by the way, you didn't say how much it cost to treat Dan Cheng Hao to a meal last time."
Qi Jia stood at the side and observed Qiao Lu De, then shook her head and said, "No money. Dan Cheng Hao signed the bill at that restaurant. "
Qiao Lu De glanced at Qi Jia, hung up the dress, sighed and said, "Sigh, it's so hard to return a favor. If we had known earlier, we wouldn't have done this if we had brought him to eat the spicy aromatic pot. When will I be able to return this favor?"
Looking at her bitter little face, Qi Jia did not forget to remind her kindly, "Boy, you seem to have remembered wrongly. You already owe him two favors. Don't forget, you are now a member of Ning Yu."
Qiao Lu De laughed dryly, "Yeah, I really have to buy a big gift to thank him!"
The two of them chatted and did not waste any time picking out clothes. In the end, the two of them chose two sets of professional clothes. When they arrived at the new company, they also had to buy two sets of new equipment.
When they were going down the escalator, Qi Jia said, "Do you want to take a look at my men's clothes?"
Qiao Lu De nodded, "Alright. Let's see if there's anything suitable. "
The two of them looked at the shops one by one. Qi Jia suggested to buy a suit, but Qiao Lu De was afraid that it would not look good if it was too big, or too small. Moreover, the big CEO was wearing a custom-made suit, and he was really afraid that he would not be able to get used to the suit since he had bought it.
Qi Jia felt that what she said made sense, so she said that she would just buy a pair of shoes? Qiao Lu De shook his head again. No, giving people shoes was inauspicious, which meant that he wanted to leave. Let me ask you, where do you want your CEO to go?
Qi Jia rolled her eyes at the sky and just happened to walk to the lighter counter. She said casually, Then buy a lighter; I think he will smoke a few times too.
I don't think so. Qiao Lu rejected it again. Smoking is harmful to one's health. If I give him a lighter as a gift, wouldn't I just be sending him to his death on a rocket?
"How could it be as serious as you say?" Qi Jia said impatiently: "You said that this won't do, that won't do, then what should I give him?"
"I don't know either. Why do you have such a high status? If it was an ordinary friend or colleague, would we still be so troubled? "Qiao Lu De also scratched his head in annoyance.
Qi Jia snorted, "Can an ordinary person help us? What nonsense are you talking about!"
After looking around for a while, Qiao Lu De finally lost his patience and stopped in front of a tie counter. He turned to Qi Jia and said, "Why don't we buy him a tie? This thing doesn't have any size, so you just need to choose a pattern that suits him."
Qi Jia nodded her head powerlessly, "Alright, as long as you're happy."
Under the enthusiastic introduction of the salesperson, Qiao Lu De chose a normal navy blue tie with wide stripes. He walked out of the shopping mall with the things in his hand and stood by the side of the road. Qiao Lu De put the tie box in front of Qi Jia and said, "You can give it to your boss when you go to work tomorrow. Tell him it's a token of your appreciation."
Qi Jia hurriedly waved her hand and said, "You should give it to me personally. After all, my job is also because of you. No matter what, you have to give me this gift."
Qiao Lu De actually understood this logic as well, but she subconsciously did not want to have anything to do with Dan Cheng Hao. His undisguised feelings for her made her confused and confused. She kept feeling that he was plotting against her.
Seeing that Qiao Lu didn't say anything, Qi Jia took it as her tacit agreement. She stopped a taxi and said, "Baby, then I'll be leaving first. Let me know on WeChat when you get home tonight."
Qiao Lu De returned home and took a comfortable bath. He returned to the bedroom to tell Qi Jia that he was safe and sound, and Qi Jia quickly sent him a goodnight emoji.
Lying on the bed, Qiao Lu De couldn't fall asleep. The moment he closed his eyes, it was the same words that Dan Cheng Hao had said to her during the day. Could it be that he really fell in love with her at first sight? He could not stop himself from doing so? Haha. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but laugh at herself. She thought to herself, If that's really the case, what should I do?
She had been thinking too much the night before and slept too late, which led to Qiao Lu getting up late the next morning. He rushed to the company in a hurry, but luckily, he got a card.
Although the work in the Administrative Department was not as busy and tiring as that of the other departments, there were still a lot of complicated work to do. This morning, Qiao Lu De stood by the printer and photocopied no less than a dozen documents.
Wen Xin Ran came out of the office with a folder in her hand. She glanced at the crowd and then looked at Qiao Lu De. She said to him, "Xiao Qiao, go to the office and send this to Manager Dan. Ask him to sign it."
Qiao Lu De walked over to the office and took the folder before leaving the department.
When she came to the CEO's office, she knocked on the door twice and a displeased voice came from inside, "Come in."
Qiao Lu stuck out his tongue, thinking who would be so blind as to offend this master?
She gently turned the doorknob and walked in. She walked towards Dan Cheng Lie's desk without looking at him and put the folder on the table, then said respectfully, "Mr. Dan, please sign it."
Dan Cheng Lie's face darkened. It seemed that he was really furious. He took the pen and looked at the document briefly, then signed his name with a flourish of the pen.
Qiao Lu exhaled and quickly took the folder before turning to leave. However, when he turned around, he suddenly saw a person standing in front of him. He was so scared that she almost screamed out loud.
"Sister? Why are you here?" Qiao De asked in surprise.
Qiao Ya De crossed her arms and smiled derisively. "Should I ask you? Why didn't I know when you came to work at Ning Yu?"
Qiao Lu turned around and looked at Dan Cheng Lie. He pulled her arm and whispered, "Sis, this is not the place to talk. Let's go out and talk."
Qiao Ya De glared at her and walked back to the desk. She leaned forward with her hands on the table and said in a charming voice, "Cheng Lie, I have told you everything. Don't forget what you promised me."
Dan Cheng Lie didn't even raise his head. He just said a single word from his nose as an answer. Qiao Ya De did not get angry at his indifferent attitude. She straightened her body and pulled Qiao Lu De out of the office.
They took the elevator all the way out of the company. At the door, Qiao Lu De shook off Qiao Ya De's hand and said, "Sister, I can't leave the company. I still have to work."
Qiao Ya De glared at him and asked angrily, "Let me ask you, did Dan Cheng Lie ask you to come to Ning Yu?"
