Chapter 37
Chapter 38:
My heart beats like a mountain.
Did I tease her?
I reacted as soon as the video was cut off. Didn’t I just ask her? How could it become a provocative? At that time there was a little…but the atmosphere was the atmosphere. I was just the delayed dynamic pixels on her computer. After self-reporting the house, I asked the other party about the situation normally. How could it be classified as flirting?
Fortunately, it was the network that cut off the video, not me.
I took a deep breath: It’s okay, Li Yao, hold on.
The opposite is a straight daughter, hold on, it’s okay.
After reconnecting to the internet, her facial features were filled again in my sight.
Miss Pan De smiled but smiled: “Can you hear me?”
“Yes.” I held the headset with one hand, as if I was analyzing intelligence, without any extra expressions on my face, “Excuse me. We just said…”
Because I didn’t even look at her. I opened my mouth and stared motionlessly at the clock in the lower right corner.
“I was talking at the time.” I don’t know what her expression was, but her voice was very gentle, “I asked, are you flirting with me?”
Naive, I’m so naive.
I only knew that the internet was disconnected, and I never thought that she could ask a second time.
I lifted my eyes and looked at her. There was no trace of panic on Miss Pande’s face, her hair was completely dry, and she staggered on her chest as intended, as knowledgeable and methodical as she herself was. I came to tease and no longer wanted to sloppy with her.
“In what culture is it considered flirting to ask about the interviewer’s personal life based on the principle of reciprocity?” I said a long, difficult sentence.
“You mean you are not…”
“No.” I said for her, “I’m just flirting with you.”
At that moment, Miss Pan De’s Yu Yu bottomed out.
I laughed: “Are you single?”
She hid her emotions very quickly, like a cunning hare on the hillside, saying: “Yes.”
“That’s good.” I was silent for a moment on purpose, and then said again, “I am not the only person who has lost the balance between work and life.”
Miss Pan De lightly bit her lower lip, and the sharpness in her eyes flashed past. But her edge is as if she never showed her, and she responded with a smile: “If you put in some effort, it is not difficult to find a balance. We can’t always wait for good luck in these areas.”
“You’re right.” I didn’t show the truth, “People should save luck for the most critical time.”
Humph, play with me. Eat it flat!
There was a refreshing feeling in my heart.
I know that she might have guessed my sexual orientation. The chemical reaction is very strange, and the more I want to hide it, the more I can’t keep it. I just didn’t expect that she would tease me, this wicked one.
It was normal for Xiao Ji Lao who had just come out to be teased by her straight daughter. Some people were stupidly moved. They didn’t realize that Xiao Ji Lao was no different from the unmanned young brother in their eyes. The first time I heard the term “BabyDyke”, I thought it was very appropriate. Babies can only learn but cannot teach. They are vulnerable to injury and cannot protect themselves.
People will grow up.
Why would BCG want the data at the time? The Philippine market three years ago is no longer the same as it is now. They must have macro-industry data within them, and this is not clear. A piece of data that does not provide much guidance for the present, is it just as a testimonial? The cooperative relationship between us is extremely fragile, and trust has yet to be established. Even if Miss Pande wants to do any test, she should choose something that is less sensitive and really helpful to them.
wrong. She should be targeted, I must have overlooked something.
When I woke up in the morning, I had a splitting headache, my throat became more dry, and my tonsils were still a little swollen. I knew it was because I drank too little water, so I drank four bottles of mineral water from the refrigerator and put it neatly on the coffee table. It was stipulated that I had to drink it before I got off work.
I didn’t meet in the morning, and my task was done well. The boss was sucking noodles on the video, and he didn’t forget: “You can eat too, and you can say as you eat.”
“I have eaten it, thank you Lin.” I said dryly, his face looks really good, and there are toppings, it’s different for people with a family.
“Let’s say it? What can’t be said when I gave a report on Monday, but Jocelyn repeatedly emphasized that you have a very important thing, so I can’t even eat lunch.” The big boss said half-jokingly.
“This matter really can’t be delayed until the report. Didn’t you schedule the meeting with BCG until next Monday morning? I think…”
The big boss interrupted me: “Stop. Tell me the truth, what do you think of the BCG framework?”
All of my words choked back.
Before organizing the language, the big boss added: “Just frankly, assuming that it can be implemented as they say, do you think we will get better or worse?”
My heart sank, the big boss really liked that plan. I said: “Their framework looks beautiful in theory, but there will be many problems in implementation, such as power supervision, running-in within the project team, and small aspects, such as the KPI of each employee, which is difficult to quantify. You see, compared to the technical details, I think we should not consider accepting this plan fundamentally.”
“why?”
I hit the cotton like a punch, hesitated for a moment, and said as gently and conservatively as possible: “We have to consider strategy. There are still some problems with our basic disk. In this regard, a little delay with BCG will be more conducive to future work. .”
“Hey… I understand, you just think we have to fight the enemy at all costs.”
The big boss obviously disagrees with my opinion. I didn’t insist anymore, and changed my direction to persuade him: “Mr. Lin, this is how I think about this. Once the optimization plan proposed by BCG is implemented, our integrated new department will easily become a new department that may be drawn out at any time. The module, because everything is matched—it will be in a state of actual independence by then. This state is not a good thing for the company in the long run. What we value is that it can solve the current contradiction that is difficult to reconcile. Right? But it’s not the one-time solution. The contradiction has only shifted from the bosses of the two departments to a new place.”
At that time, there will be a conflict between the head of the department and the CEO.
After listening, the big boss nodded and asked: “Why didn’t you mention this at the meeting yesterday?”
I still murmured, “There are so many people at the meeting.”
He smiled and said, “You. But you did very well at the meeting yesterday. I understand why Sonia loves to compete with you so much. The way of talking between you two is completely carved out of the same mold.”
I still refused to give up: “You are a superior, I dare not deceive you; I will not be able to conceal something from you in the end. But Sonia is different, President Lin, she is from BCG—”
The big boss laughed: “Okay! You just want me to reject their plan.”
I did not dare to answer.
“Li Yao, I know your concerns. If this framework is changed a little bit, you will be directly dismantled as subsidiaries. I understand.” The big boss put the noodle bowl aside, “but it is a constructive one. I think the plan can be tried. As for the landing problem you mentioned, BCG will help us. You can also actively participate in it and give them guided feedback, right?”
“You make sense.” I can only say that.
“Procrastination can’t solve the problem. It’s better to block it than sparse, do it with the trend, you know?” He drank his mouth, saw me respond, and laughed again, “Think about it. What else is there?”
I was a little discouraged, but I still said, “No, I won’t disturb your work.”
“That’s right.” The big boss suddenly remembered something. “On Monday, the meeting between our executives and BCG, you don’t want to participate. You also avoid avoiding it. There is no need to conflict with BCG on this inevitable event. You After all, there is a mission.”
My heart was tight, and I forced a smile and said, “Okay. Then I’m going to be busy now.”
At the small meeting in the afternoon, I told the boss and Huang about the situation. After listening, Lao Huang is in the same state as me, and the two of them are almost sighing. The boss is originally a poker face and can’t see much, but I faintly feel that he thinks differently from ours, and may recognize the attitude of the big boss. .
When the game was about to end, Old Huang said, “Yao, you look too pale. Take the weekend to rest.”
I rolled my eyes: “Because I didn’t wear makeup today.”
He really can’t tell. I asked his sister-in-law before.
As a result, the boss also said: “This month is really too busy. The revision is right. You have a lot of work. Now is a special period. Take care of yourself.”
I glanced at my picture, touched my face in disbelief and asked, “Do I look so haggard?”
“It’s like a hundred hours of continuous work.” The boss said.
Lao Huang also said, “It’s like I only slept for half a night every day.”
Lao Huang is worthy of being my brother with a different name. I made up my mind to stop being lazy, and put my makeup on from next week, saying, “Thank you. You guys have to take care too, okay? I can’t fight alone with BCG.”
After it was over, I took another painkiller. There were three bottles of water left on the table, so I drank half a bottle. When I got busy at night, I forgot about this. While reading the data, I forcibly poured the rest into my stomach. At least today’s task of “caring for myself” was successfully completed before midnight.
I am very satisfied. I am really good at everything.
—I felt that way until I lay on the toilet and vomited all the water I drank in.
I didn’t even go back to bed in the middle of the night. As soon as I lay down, I felt sick, and there was nothing in my stomach, so I could only shrink on the single-seater sofa in the living room and barely pour some milk down. My usual recipes are very monotonous, not to mention these days, it is unlikely to be food poisoning.
I picked up my T-shirt and wiped my mouth. I leaned on the washstand, and had no energy to go back to the sofa. The big bones on the body are like beating with muscles, and it hurts everywhere, as if the soul and the flesh have long been torn, and now it is returning to the deepest pain that I couldn’t bear.
I take care of myself so well, what’s wrong?
