Chapter 707 It's always the same!
As luck would have it, Gu Jiayan, who was holding a newspaper, happened to turn his head to look at the doorway.
Then he and Lu Qiaoge locked eyes.
Gu Jiayan wasn't too shocked, since she knew that Lu Qiaoge would be arriving to report for duty in the next day or two.
I don't know the exact date.
It's unclear which department Lu Qiaoge will be assigned to and what specific work she will be doing.
I've also wondered what Lu Qiaoge's expression would be if she saw me working here.
But after actually seeing Lu Qiaoge, all those thoughts disappeared.
Gu Jiayan stood up abruptly, then immediately put down the teacup and newspaper in his hand.
I don't even know why, but I suddenly felt awkward.
You should know that when I was interning at the Jiangcheng Foreign Trade Bureau, everyone was very busy, and no one sat there reading newspapers or drinking tea.
But actually, I haven't been very busy lately. I haven't expanded into new businesses. Even though exports continue to increase, they are basically the same types of products as before. Moreover, some have been reduced, such as certain mineral resources.
The most reliable brand is Xiangyang instant noodles.
But there are dedicated people in charge of that, not to mention President Zhen, Chairman Luo, and Chu He. These are all clients brought in by Lu Qiaoge, not clients introduced by the State Administration of Foreign Trade.
But isn't that what office work is all about? It's not like you're working yourself to death. If office work is so tiring, then everyone should be a worker instead of a manager.
So Gu Jiayan didn't think anything was wrong.
Even though the higher-ups said they would streamline a few departments, no one took it seriously. In recent years, they have talked about streamlining several times because of the excessive number of staff, but it has been all talk and no action. Now, new employees have been transferred in, such as Lu Qiaoge, so streamlining is even more impossible.
It must be said that Gu Jiayan's mind works very quickly; he had already comforted himself in the time it took to make eye contact.
She took a deep breath, smiled at Lu Qiaoge, and then slowly walked out with a smile on her face: "Little Lu, it really is you! I thought I had mistaken you for someone else. Please come in!"
Having completed his task, Old Song, who was standing to the side, said to Lu Qiaoge, "I'll take you this far. Let Comrade Xiao Gu take you to see Director Liu."
Lu Qiaoge thanked Lao Song with a smile.
Old Song nodded to Lu Qiaoge, said nothing, and then turned and left with his hands behind his back.
Lu Qiaoge walked into the large office.
Gu Jiayan, who was standing to the side, was stunned for a moment. He thought Lu Qiaoge was going to talk to her in the corridor outside.
After realizing what was happening, Gu Jiayan quickly caught up with Lu Qiaoge and said, "Director Lü had an urgent matter and was called away by his superiors. He didn't know you could report for duty today. Why don't you sit here and wait for a while?"
Then he pulled over a chair next to him and gestured for Lu Qiaoge to sit in it.
Gu Jiayan and Lu Qiaoge already had a rift between them, so it was impossible for them to be very happy to meet now.
Lu Qiaoge didn't seem to care, but she didn't sit in the chair. Instead, she asked Gu Jiayan, "Can I take a look at those things posted on the wall?"
One wall of one of the five large offices was covered with a lot of papers, mostly handwritten, including slogans, rules and regulations, and work guidelines for each position.
I must say, this penmanship is really beautiful.
I don't know who wrote it.
Upon hearing this, Gu Jiayan was stunned for a moment, and then felt a little irritated. She realized that Lu Qiaoge was not an honest person and never interacted with her according to her wishes.
For example, just now, you're a newcomer. No matter how powerful you were in your previous workplace, when you come to a new place, you're a newbie, and everything has to start from scratch. Don't you even have that much self-awareness?
She took the initiative and walked in first, then threw her into the hallway.
Logically, shouldn't she have exchanged a few polite words with her in the hallway?
Then she exchanged pleasantries with Lu Qiaoge, and then casually led her into the office. She pulled up a chair, and Lu Qiaoge thanked her and sat down, obediently waiting for Director Lü to arrive or not…
But Lu Qiaoge refused!
Now we need to look at these things on the wall even more.
How could she know if it was even watchable?
After all, Lu Qiaoge hasn't officially reported for duty yet. And since she's not exactly part of the company, she probably doesn't have the right to see this, right?
But actually, anyone can see what's posted on the wall. After all, when colleagues from other units come here on business, it's not like they're not allowed to see it.
Moreover, Lu Qiaoge has already been transferred here.
Gu Jiayan wasn't the only one in the large office.
There were more than a dozen men and women sitting inside.
Some were quite busy, scribbling on their desks, seemingly writing something; some were carrying stacks of documents out the door; and others, like Gu Jiayan, were reading newspapers.
So Gu Jiayan had no choice but to ask Wei Cheng, the section chief who was closest to her and had the most seniority, "Section Chief Wei, can she see the rules and regulations on our wall?"
Section Chief Wei: "..."
Listen to what you're saying!
She seems like a clever little girl, but why does she talk so incoherently?
Perhaps realizing that what he said was inappropriate, Gu Jiayan felt a little annoyed.
He couldn't help but look at Lu Qiaoge, who was standing next to him, as if she had been working in this office for a long time.
That's how it is, it's always the same!
Whenever something involves Lu Qiaoge, she doesn't know why, all sorts of problems always arise.
In what ways is she inferior to Lu Qiaoge?
But in front of Lu Qiaoge, she felt ashamed of herself.
And why did she have to compare herself to Lu Qiaoge?
And shouldn't Lu Qiaoge be the one feeling uncomfortable at this moment?
Gu Jiayan felt her performance was terrible and her mood soured, but she still said, "This is Lu Qiaoge, Director Lu from Xiangyang Food Factory. She's been transferred to our unit and is here to report for duty today. Look, she's waiting for Director Lü..."
Wei Cheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up and walked towards Lu Qiaoge.
Two other comrades also put down what they were holding, but unlike Section Chief Wei, they sat in their chairs and cautiously and discreetly scrutinized Lu Qiaoge.
As an employee of the State Administration of Foreign Trade responsible for import and export, it would be a bit unbelievable that he had never heard of the name Lu Qiaoge.
But it's not accurate to say that he held him in high esteem.
At that moment, I just realized that she was such a young woman.
At this moment, Gu Jiayan didn't want to stay here any longer. She hurriedly said, "Comrade Xiao Lu, please wait here for a moment. I have something to do outside and will be right back."
She needs to go out and sort out her emotions.
Then the person left in a hurry.
Section Chief Wei glanced at Gu Jiayan's retreating figure with great displeasure.
Why is this girl so careless today? Shouldn't she be introducing herself to Lu Qiaoge at this time?
Unexpectedly, Lu Qiaoge greeted everyone with a smile and introduced herself, "Hello, Section Chief Wei, I am Lu Qiaoge."
Section Chief Wei, all smiles, beckoned to Lu Qiaoge, "Come, sit down first, let's talk."
