C22 Gratitude for Dinner

Just as Zhu Ruiyan was still immersed in her inextricable fantasy, Lee Shuang suddenly looked up at her, "Ruiyan, which backstage did you come in from?" Lee Shuang's words made her feel rather surprised. She did not think that Lee Shuang would actually ask such a sensitive question.

"Ah?" Zhu Ruiyan looked at Lee Shuang at a loss. At this time Dai Lulu who was at the side also opened her mouth and said, "Don't cover it up. Someone like you who was temporarily transferred must have a backer and should be very strong."

Zhu Ruiyan did not expect that the public officials also liked to discuss some gossip issues like this. She could only force a smile on her face and quickly lowered her head to look at the documents.

Lee Shuang then said to Dai Lulu, "Lulu, I have already said it many times. There are some things that cannot be explained clearly. I can only understand why you are always unable to remember." This way, the entire office would once again be calm and no one would continue to speak.

Zhu Ruiyan spent the whole day familiarizing herself with the procedures of the letter office, but her mind was still relatively clear and she was able to get the hang of it quickly. In addition to Lee Shuang and Dai Lulu's guidance, she was already more or less familiar with it. After work, she took the bus to the supermarket to buy some ingredients.

Along the way, Zhu Ruiyan was thinking about how Qin Yizhao had helped her a lot this time. How could she express her gratitude to him? But a big shot like Qin Yizhao should not be bad, so this was what gave her the biggest headache.

Zhu Ruiyan usually had the habit of cooking at home. It was a standard meal and soup. Just as Zhu Ruiyan was busy cooking in the kitchen, someone knocked on her door. Zhu Ruiyan looked at the clock on the wall. Who would knock at this hour? When she opened the door and saw Qin Yizhao standing outside, she was a little surprised.

Qin Yizhao was wearing a suit and leather shoes. It was obvious that he had just gotten off work. The shopping bag in his hand seemed somewhat out of place with his dignified appearance. Zhu Ruiyan still had a spatula in her right hand. She said with a puzzled look, "Chair Qin?"

Qin Yizhao directly put the shopping bag in Zhu Ruiyan's hand, then took the shoe cover from the shoe cabinet and put it on before entering the house. After entering the house, he first looked around the room and saw that it was clean and tidy, as if he was living alone.

Qin Yizhao sat on the sofa very naturally. He untied the tie around his neck and leaned against the sofa. Zhu Ruiyan closed the door and asked in confusion, "Chair Qin, how did you know I lived here?"

"Last time I sent you home and saw that there was a light in this room. I guessed that you lived here. It turns out to be true." After Qin Yizhao finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Ruiyan who was still standing there blankly. "I want to eat home-cooked food."

Zhu Ruiyan then realized Qin Yizhao's real purpose of visiting. Anyway, he should thank him for helping her with her work this time. Then she would cook a meal for him. So Zhu Ruiyan nodded. "Is there any special request for these dishes?"

Qin Yizhao thought for a few seconds and said, "The fish will be squirrel mandarin fish. Anything else is up to you." Zhu Ruiyan took the ingredients from the shopping bags into the kitchen and made Qin Yizhao a cup of tea. The faint fragrance of the tea smelled very comfortable.

"Chair Qin, you drink tea first. I will go to the kitchen to cook." Zhu Ruiyan went into the kitchen after she finished speaking. She opened the bag and found that the fish was not taken care of. So she helplessly puckered her lips and started to take care of the fish.

Qin Yizhao's eyes would occasionally glance at Zhu Ruiyan. This woman was really special. Many girls did not know how to cook. Not only did she know how to cook, but she also knew how to take care of fish. She was completely different from those pretentious girls.

Zhu Ruiyan placed the processed fish on the chopping board and cut it. When she turned around, she saw Qin Yizhao standing behind her. She was at a loss and said, "Chair Qin, actually, you can take the fish back home after you take care of it at the supermarket next time."

"It's not as clean as it is." Qin Yizhao's answer made Zhu Ruiyan feel a little helpless.

She lowered her head and busied herself with the work in her hands. At the same time, she did not forget to thank Qin Yizhao. "Chair Qin, this time I really have to thank you for helping me with the work. I really don't know what to say."

Although Zhu Ruiyan did not ask about the specific salary and treatment, she also knew from Lee Shuang and Dai Lulu that this standard of work was nine to five. Double holidays were set on holidays. Of course, there were also some additional benefits that were available. Zhu Ruiyan was already very satisfied with this job. Especially the arrangement, which was an iron rice bowl, which was what she valued the most.

"Then how do you plan to thank me?" A playful smile suddenly appeared on Qin Yizhao's face, which made Zhu Ruiyan's face heat up a little.

Zhu Ruiyan quickly lowered her head even lower, "Make this meal as a thank you." Qin Yizhao saw that Zhu Ruiyan's embarrassed look was no longer as fake as he had thought. Instead, it was a bit cute. Qin Yizhao returned to the sofa.

In a short while, Zhu Ruiyan had already made the food for the two of them. The familiar scent of the rice entered Qin Yizhao's nose again. He consciously sat at the table and took the chopsticks to eat. It was still as delicious as before.

"Chair Qin, I still want to thank you again. You really helped me a lot." Zhu Ruiyan finally solved the problem of working to make a living.

Qin Yizhao did not stop eating. He said lightly, "Did Division Head Xue ask you about Secretary Lin?"

Zhu Ruiyan nodded and repeated the interview scene to Qin Yizhao in words. A strange smile appeared on Qin Yizhao's face.

"What an old fox." Qin Yizhao said coldly.

"But if Division Head Xue knows that I have nothing to do with Secretary Lin, will he be angry?" Zhu Ruiyan was still a little worried. After all, she had always believed that paper could not cover fire.

"Nothing. He did not dare to look for Secretary Lin to verify it." Qin Yizhao paused for a moment and looked up at Zhu Ruiyan. "I will not let you work there all the time. This is just a transition period."

Zhu Ruiyan looked at Qin Yizhao in disbelief. "Chair Qin, I think the work now is very good. I do not plan to change jobs. And it's not good to change jobs often. "

"What's not good?" Qin Yizhao looked at Zhu Ruiyan with a playful smile. "Don't tell me you have feelings for that place after just one day. She is really a woman who shows mercy everywhere." Qin Yizhao deliberately emphasized the adjective. Zhu Ruiyan knew the meaning in his words.

"Hey, today my colleagues in the office asked me what kind of backstage I came in from. You don't even know how awkward I was at that time. I was really worried that if I made a mistake, I would definitely cause trouble. It would be bad if I implicated you at that time. I've already caused you too much trouble. "

Zhu Ruiyan looked at Qin Yizhao apologetically. Qin Yizhao did not speak but continued to eat with his head down. As the saying goes, being with a king is like being with a tiger. Zhu Ruiyan felt that Qin Yizhao was a man who could not guess what he was thinking. After the meal, they did not speak again. Zhu Ruiyan had been carefully serving him.

After the meal, Qin Yizhao just sat on the sofa and smoked from time to time. He did not interact much with Zhu Ruiyan and did not talk about work anymore. Except for the occasional question and answer, the room was unusually quiet.

It was almost late at night when Qin Yizhao got up and left Zhu Ruiyan's home. He said lightly, "Rest early. Good night."

The next day, Zhu Ruiyan still got up early to work as usual. After a period of adaptation, she had already started working on the letter office. She was even more grateful to Qin Yizhao for giving her such a relaxed job. Other than sorting and archiving some documents, she was really grateful. There was almost nothing to do.

People liked to gossip when they were free, but Zhu Ruiyan usually just quietly listened and did not interrupt. She could not interrupt either.

Dai Lulu looked at Lee Shuang with a mysterious expression, "Shuang, do you know? I heard from my family that there has been a major change in personnel recently."

"Yeah, I also received news. It seems that the change this time is quite big." Lee Shuang paused for a moment and continued, "Do you know Qin Yizhao? He is the young politician who is reputed to have the most future. I heard that he is a pure red second generation. He grew up in the military commissar's courtyard. From his grandfather's generation onwards, his family is filled with government officials and high ranking officials."

Zhu Ruiyan originally did not have much interest in these gossips, but when she unexpectedly heard that Lee Shuang and Dai Lulu were talking about Qin Yizhao today, she could not help but perked up her ears.

It turned out that Qin Yizhao's identity was so noble. It was not surprising that the leaders of the province were also respectful to him. They knew that Qin Yizhao's background was not small, but they did not expect him to be so noble.

"I have heard of him. The most important thing is that a man like him not only has a good background, but also has a good background. He is also handsome. The most important thing is that he is still a single noble until now." As Dai Lulu spoke, her saliva was about to drip out. Her eyes were filled with peach blossoms. "Qin Yizhao is the publicly acknowledged National Prince Charming in the hearts of all female civil servants."

On the other side, Lee Shuang could not help but feel a little excited when she heard this. "Then if we can successfully climb up this tall branch, then it would be worth it as a woman in this life." Lee Shuang paused for a moment and continued, "Why don't you help me find a way. If I succeed, I will not forget you."

"Come on, people like Qin Yizhao are the son-in-law of the big leaders. How can it be our turn? No matter what, the one who is worthy of Qin Yizhao must be the daughter of a provincial or higher official. " Dai Lulu looked at Lee Shuang with some disdain and her eyes were filled with endless disappointment." We still need to be our assistant secretary steadily. Don't daydream about those unrealistic things every day. "

Although Lee Shuang was also a little unwilling, she could only say playfully, "The governor's child is his son, but Secretary Lin has two daughters. And I heard that Secretary Lin really wanted to let Qin Yizhao become his son-in-law."

Zhu Ruiyan continued to listen quietly. The more she heard, the more she felt that Qin Yizhao's world was so far away from her. She even began to doubt whether what happened between Qin Yizhao and her was the truth. She was an ordinary and ordinary person. Why would someone like Qin Yizhao, who existed like a god, help her?

But she had unknowingly owed Qin Yizhao such a huge favor. How could she pay it back clearly? Zhu Ruiyan could not help frowning. Her heart felt as if it was weighed down by a rock.
