Chapter 3 2. Do you know?

The encounter with Dong Qing early in the morning made Du Lala unhappy all day long. She mechanically finished her day's work and walked out of the office building alone exhausted. It's already nine o'clock in the evening, and there are two or three cigarette peddlers at the entrance of the bar, with wooden boxes that can be closed hanging around their necks, which are filled with all kinds of cigarettes. The costumes are the same as the old Shanghai image in the movie, and even the expressions on the faces are the same, except that they are not yelling "Hardmen, Laodao brand cigarettes".

An old lady picking up rags was sitting alone on the curb to rest, with a woven bag for picking up rubbish beside her.Lala has been coming to Shanghai every month for the past two years. As long as the weather is not too cold or rainy, she has seen the old lady sitting on the curb alone to rest on this road several times at this hour.The old lady is of medium to thin body, and her silver-white hair is combed neatly behind her head. It seems that she is in her early seventies. Her back is straight, and her body seems to be quite tough. Picking up rags for a living, but she wears a white bamboo slanted gown all the year round. Even in the dark, you will not suspect that her white shirt is clean and tidy, and even the woven bag she uses to pick up garbage is clean and not sloppy .The old lady always quietly smoked a cigarette when she was resting, lonely, leisurely and dignified, it was her super-level whiteness and the style of holding a cigarette that made Lala never dare to try to give the old man any money.Lala once guessed the old man's life experience, or was once a popular socialite, or was once the concubine of a Kuomintang military officer. What is certain is that she lived a life of spending money like water, and now she is alone, relying on picking up trash to help with expenses.Lala thought anxiously, what should the old lady do if she is sick?Will people from the neighborhood committee find out in time and come to take care of her?

Back at the hotel, Lala took a shower first, and when she came out, she found that there was a missed call on the mobile phone, which was called by Chen Feng, the regional manager of the Southern District of the Commercial Customer Department.Lala looked at Chen Feng's name on the phone screen in a daze. Although the two had a good personal relationship, it was rare for them to call so late. Lala couldn't figure out what Chen Feng was calling for for a while. Since Wang Wei left DB, Lala Qingzhi will inevitably be talked about, but she can't figure out how many people know about her and Wang Wei's affairs to what extent, and what she thinks about most is that the executives Do you know?

Liszt obviously knew something.What did Daisy say to him before she left?Will he talk to the executives?These two questions lingered in Lala's mind countless times, but she really didn't have the courage to ask Liszt, nor was she willing to take the initiative to pierce the window paper, lest there be no room for maneuver. If the executives already knew, how would they treat her Du Lala?For example, will you not renew the contract with her after her current labor contract expires?If such a situation really happened, how should I deal with it? Or would they send someone to talk to and see if it was true?So should I deny it or admit it honestly?Or do you want to say that this is a private matter and the company has no right to intervene?

There is also a possibility that the executives will pretend to be stupid, but will not reuse her Du Lala from then on until she feels bored and leaves DB voluntarily? The repeated guessing further aggravated Lala's psychological pressure. In the anxiety of gaining and losing, her chin gradually pointed up. As the regional manager of the Southern District of the commercial customer department, Chen Feng has a lot of contact with Lala in his daily work. The offices of the two are very close to each other, and there are some collaborative work arrangements almost every week.After Wang Wei left, Chen Feng's attitude towards Lala didn't seem to change.Lala sometimes wonders with a guilty conscience whether Chen Feng has heard anything about her. He has never expressed or hinted about it. Is it out of gentlemanly demeanor, or is it just that he really doesn't know anything?Lala also thought about it, don’t be an ostrich who deceives herself. I’m afraid that such an interesting and exciting thing is already known to everyone—but she didn’t have the courage to ask Helen, who “inquired” about it, and Helen had been waiting for her to speak. .

While the top management remains silent, the complex crowd is not as prudent as the executives, and the composition of the crowd is more complex, so there will always be a few who come to the heroine Du Lala for face-to-face communication. Lala has been questioned by all kinds of people. Recently, whenever Chen Feng is alone with her, she gets nervous. She is afraid that Wang Wei will be mentioned in his next sentence, so she rushes to gag his mouth with words. , the air was filled with her unnatural voice, appearing lively and flustered. Thinking of the fight with Dong Qing because of Wang Wei during the day, Lala looked at the record of Chen Feng's missed call and worried that he called so late just to ask about Wang Wei.Lala was in a daze when the phone rang. She saw that it was Chen Feng calling again.Lala felt a lot of pressure. She didn't want to answer, but felt that she couldn't make sense. She delayed for a few seconds. She wanted to stretch her neck and shrink her neck with a knife.

As soon as Chen Feng gently asked "Is it convenient" on the other end of the phone, Lala cut him off forcefully and said, "What's the matter?" Chen Feng didn't expect Lala to have such an attitude, he was taken aback and said, "Nothing special." Lala said coldly: "Then what do you want to say?" Chen Feng became more aware that something was wrong, and said cautiously: "What's wrong? How about I listen to you first." Lala scolded angrily: "You called me, what did you ask me to say?" Chen Feng explained: "I'll just chat with you casually."

Lala said with a thorn in her words: "Then what do you want to know?" Chen Feng argued: "I really have nothing to know. What happened to you today?" Lala didn't believe it at all, she became impatient, and her voice hurt people's ears like a blade cutting through glass: "What's the matter with you?" Chen Feng was also anxious: "Can't I chat with you if I have nothing to do?" Lala said suspiciously: "Well, what do you want to talk about?" Seeing that it was not a problem, Chen Feng said, "Lala, why do I feel that you have something against me? What did I do wrong?"

Lala also suspected that she was being overwhelmed. Chen Feng might really just be chatting with her. They had a phone call for pure chatting before, so she had to soften her voice and find a way for herself to say, "Who has a problem with you?" Yes! (Qi.shu.net--completion.arrangement.provide.provided) I just saw you calling at night and thought there was something urgent." Chen Feng sighed, "Look at your attitude!" Lala warned half-believingly: "Okay, I was wrong, I apologize to you. However, I am very tired, so don't bring up topics I don't like, or it will affect my sleep later."

Chen Feng asked: "What's the matter? How dare I disturb your sleep." Lala became more suspicious: "You still pretend!" Chen Feng's voice conveyed innocence: "You really confused me, when did I pretend to be in front of you? What is it for? If you don't tell me, I can't explain it to you. Maybe it is Have you wronged me?" Lala heard his tone as if she really didn't know about it, and she couldn't be sure for a while, so she could only say vaguely: "Okay. Even if I wronged you. Anyway, just don't bring up annoying topics."

Chen Feng promised: "I really just wanted to chat with you casually. I didn't want to ask you anything. Anyway, I'll listen to what you're happy to say, and I won't say a word if you don't like to hear it." Lala hummed: "Are you that good?" Chen Feng said in an exaggerated tone: "I have always been so kind to you, don't you know?" Lala didn't believe it: "How can you take the words of sales seriously? You won't pay for your life by coaxing people to death." Chen Feng said solemnly: "Look at an honest and simple person like me, how dare I coax you? Even if I have the guts, it won't work. What a smart person you are." Lala laughed amused by his "honest and simple" STATEMENT (declaration): "There are honest and simple salesmen? Unless you are a novice, or you are a poor salesman." Lala smiled, and the atmosphere eased. Chen Feng said with a sigh of relief: "Okay, seeing that your mood has improved, I won't disturb you. Let's go to rest early." Before picking up the line, Lala said, "By the way, why are you calling, should you tell me?" Chen Feng said: "Cough! I just arrived in Shanghai tonight, and now I'm staying in the same hotel as you. I wanted to ask you if you'd like to go downstairs for a drink together, but you scared me so much that I couldn't speak. .” At this time, Lala also realized that maybe she was under too much pressure and was nervous. First, she assumed that Chen Feng's call must be for gossip about Wang Wei and her own affairs, so she directly put on a fighting posture, and she couldn't help but feel funny .Lala's vocal cords and nerves relaxed together and said, "Blame me, blame me. City life is stressful, which can easily lead to gastrointestinal discomfort and mental disorders. Please forgive me." Chen Feng fully demonstrated the man's generosity and sales profession, and said with a smile: "No problem, the ability to withstand pressure is strong in sales, it's not bad for you to give me more." Lala explained: "I changed into my pajamas and I don't want to go out anymore. Let's just say a few words. I didn't know in advance that you were also coming to Shanghai on business today." Chen Feng said: "Come here for a sales meeting, and I'll go back tomorrow night. Oh, by the way, I want to invite you to the manager meeting in the third quarter of our southern district, and spend an hour talking about 'performance management' to the district managers. The time is set. In late September, the location is Lijiang. Are you free?" Lala agreed: "I'll say hello to my boss, it should be fine."
