Chapter 615 I’m not a stingy person anyway!
Lu Jingshen walked into the office, and Li Minglin knocked on the door and walked into the office.
"what's up?"
Li Minglin put his resignation letter on the table.
Lu Jingshen picked up the resignation letter on the table and looked at Li Minglin, "What do you mean?"
"I want to resign and hope Mr. Lu will approve it."
"You've only been an assistant for a few days and you want to resign. Is it because I don't treat you well?"
"It's not because of this..."
"What's that for?"
Li Minglin looked up at Lu Jingshen, then lowered his head and said, "I know how capable I am, and I am not qualified for the position of deputy general manager's assistant."
"In that case, I respect your choice. However, you have only been my assistant for a few days and you are leaving. If word gets out that I am mistreating my employees, you will take two months of paid leave. After two months, I will allow you to resign!"
During the afternoon working hours, people started talking about it.
Lin Jiaran came out of Mo Lan's office and saw a group of people talking next door. She also heard Li Minglin's name and didn't know what was going on.
"What gossip are everyone talking about?" Lin Jiaran moved her chair next to Tian Xinyu and asked.
"I heard from my colleagues in the Human Resources Department that Assistant Li took two months off due to family matters."
"Just because of the two-month leave?"
"Not really. Assistant Li is on paid leave for two months. In addition, he was promoted from an ordinary employee to an assistant to the vice president in a short period of time. Everyone speculates that he may have some relationship with the company's boss."
"Is it possible that he has no relationship with the boss? If he does have a relationship with the boss, and his family is in trouble, the boss will just give him the money. Maybe it's a personal decision made by someone within the company and has nothing to do with the boss."
After hearing what Lin Jiaran said, Tian Xinyu moved her mobile chair to stand next to Lin Jiaran and whispered, "What you just said are all rumors, but there is one thing that is true. The company has a poverty alleviation project. Those who are in financial difficulties can submit truthful materials and receive a huge amount of funding from the company. There will also be additional subsidies for their monthly salary."
“Are there still such conscientious companies now?”
"More than a conscience, you may not know since you have only been in the company for a short time, but there is basically very little overtime in the company, and most of the time we leave work on time."
Lu Jingshen was handling work in the office. Susan knocked on the door and walked into the office.
Susan stood in front of the desk. Lu Jingshen handed her a document and asked, "Where is Assistant Li's home?"
"It's from Yancheng."
"Yancheng?" Lu Jingshen frowned slightly and said two words to himself.
"He's from Yancheng. It's written on his profile." Susan answered affirmatively.
"How is his mother's condition?" Lu Jingshen asked again.
"I am paralyzed after suffering a stroke and have been receiving treatment in a nursing home."
After listening, Lu Jingshen waved his hand, and Susan immediately took the documents and left the office.
Lu Jingshen took out his cell phone and made a call. The person on the other end answered and spoke first, "Mr. Lu, it's been a long time since we last met. Are you calling me today and I'm in Yancheng?"
"I've been busy with work lately and can't spare the time. I have something I want to ask Mr. Xu."
"What are you talking about, Mr. Lu? Please don't say such estranged words between you and me. Besides, we have to thank Mr. Lu for this Yancheng project."
"There is a person I want to introduce to Mr. Xu. He is a classmate of my wife and is also from Yancheng. I wonder if Mr. Xu can arrange a suitable job for him?"
"Since Mr. Lu asked for it himself, and he is Mrs. Lu's classmate, it's not a problem to arrange a job for him. I can arrange it right away."
"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Xu."
On the way home in the afternoon, Lu Jingshen was busy answering work calls, and Lin Jiaran sat quietly on the side, watching the car scene outside the window without disturbing him.
After the call ended, Lu Jingshen put the phone back into his pocket. Lin Jiaran turned to look at him with a look of admiration in her eyes, "It seems that you are not that stingy!"
Lu Jingshen looked down to the right, "I remember you didn't say that to me two days ago!"
"I changed my mind today. I thought you would be so petty as to fire me. Now it seems that I am short-sighted. You are not that kind of person."
"So what kind of person am I in your eyes?"
"I'm not a stingy person anyway!"
Hearing Lin Jiaran say this, Lu Jingshen turned his head and looked in front of him, with the corner of his lips slightly raised on the left side of his face, which was hidden from Lin Jiaran.
Lu Jingshen knew why Mrs. Lu said that, and Mrs. Lu's words were pleasant to the ear. He was very happy to hear them, and he was happy that his goal had been achieved.
He was still brooding over the fact that Li Minglin confessed his love to Lin Jiaran and gave her a gift in front of him. What he was bothered about was that he hadn't confessed his love to her yet, and someone got there first.
Just imagine how it feels to witness someone confessing to the girl you like. He has experienced this before, and how could someone like Li Minglin be worthy of being his competitor? He deliberately struck at his inferiority complex, allowing him to see the gap in reality and to soothe his feelings at the time.
If Li Minglin left, Mrs. Lu would think that he was a stingy person, which was not his purpose.
No matter how much he cared about it, his goal was to make Li Minglin distinguish between reality and the gap. To receive Mrs. Lu's special compliment was an unexpected reward for him.
Tomorrow is the weekend and she doesn’t have to go to work. After dinner, Lin Jiaran sat on the sofa in the living room and played with her phone.
Lu Jingshen came out of the study with a black rectangular box in his hand. He went downstairs, came to the living room, and sat next to Lin Jiaran.
"I have something for you!"
Lin Jiaran put down her phone and shifted her gaze to the box in Lu Jingshen's hand, "What's in it?"
"You'll know when you open it and take a look."
I took the box and opened it, and inside was an eyebrow pencil.
Is this just an eyebrow pencil that looks delicate?
It feels like the nature of the lipstick I received in the United States is not much different. Otherwise, considering that Lu Jingshen likes to give a full set of gifts, how come it is just an eyebrow pencil?
Lin Jiaran looked into the box carefully and looked at Lu Jingshen, "Is this an ordinary eyebrow pencil?"
"No, it's for self-defense. I've applied for it and own it legally!"
"This kind of thing is legal to own, are you kidding me?"
"It's not a lethal weapon, so why can't it be legally owned?"
"Why are you giving me this for no reason? Are you planning to take me on the run again?"
"I think it's useless for you to just be able to fight, so I'm giving this to you for self-defense!"
"What are you talking about? Can you outrun a bullet?" Lin Jiaran frowned immediately.
She felt like she was being ridiculed when she heard Lu Jingshen's words. This time she was kidnapped to Yuncheng, and the other party showed up with special weapons, leaving her unprepared and afraid to resist. Facing bullets, how could she just run around like a joke!
"No, it's my fault for not preparing any self-defense equipment for you."
Lin Jiaran put the box on the table, continued to sit cross-legged, picked up her phone, looked at the Candy Crush game on the screen and said, "But the way you spoke gave me the feeling that you were mocking me!"
"I promise I didn't mean to mock you!" Lu Jingshen frowned.
Lin Jiaran glanced at Lu Jingshen sideways, "Your imagination is too rich. Your expression was exactly the same when you said this!"
"I really don't mean to be sarcastic."
"If there is no, then there is no. Why emphasize it? Do I need to repeat the important meaning of the sarcasm several times?"
Lu Jingshen frowned. He found that most of the time he seemed unable to refute Mrs. Lu's words. He didn't know what to say or how to explain clearly that he really didn't mean that!
Seeing Lu Jingshen's frown, Lin Jiaran stood up from the sofa, turned her back to him, and showed a happy and slightly smiling face.
She knew that Lu Jingshen had no intention of mocking her, but she just had to say it anyway. Who told him to misinterpret her meaning so easily?
Clearly when she said "get out", she meant for him to get out far away and not appear in her sight, but Lu Jingshen misinterpreted it as a verb to roll in bed!
Lin Jiaran had only taken a few steps when Lu Jingshen caught up with her and put his arm around her waist. "Let's go out and play for a while next week when we have a holiday?"
"Your legs aren't healed yet, where can you go and what can you do?"
“You can go to tropical areas, and it will help with recovery.”
"Is there such a saying? Why don't I know about it?"
"The doctor said so. I specially picked a few places with good weather. We can go wherever you want to go."
