MTL - Is the Wife Married?-Chapter 57
Silence remained in the bedroom.
Gu Chixi recalled Wen Ning's tone repeatedly, calmed down, read the WeChat message again, word by word, like chewing a dish slowly, and finally reacted.
Ning Ning is worried about her, afraid of her accident.
Not a word on the phone.
This small temper made Gu Chixi both happy and distressed. She was busy and called Wen Ning back. After ringing for a long time, there was no answer there, and the second time it was called.
Wen Ning sent a WeChat message:
[don't call me]
[Go to sleep]
"…"
Gu Chixi stared at the screen, let out a sigh of relief, and the corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously. She imagined Ning Ning frowning and pouting out these two sentences, she couldn't help laughing, she recorded a voice in a soft | soft crisp | hemp tone and sent it:
"Goodnight wife."
After more than ten seconds, Wen Ning replied with a "vomit" expression.
Gu Chixi held the phone and smiled.
He smiled, with bitterness in his eyes. She felt that Ning Ning's heart was approaching her, but there was always a layer of invisible things between the two. Even if she tried her best to make up for what she had been missing for the past seven years, it would be difficult to return to the past.
Sometimes she has to be pessimistic, they can't be sure of the future or there is no future at all, everything is full of variables, and they can only cherish every day in the present.
After Tan Jia finished taking a shower, Gu Chixi walked to the living room and opened the order list on the hotel table, "Xiao Tan, what would you like to eat?"
"...I'll come, Mr. Gu, what do you want to eat?" Tan Jia walked over quickly, clutching the drying cap with one hand and the menu with the other.
How could she let the boss come in person for this kind of thing?
Yesterday's account of disturbing other people's good things has not been settled-
Gu Chixi glanced at her, but didn't insist, and said casually, "Fish sliced porridge."
"OK."
Tan Jia nodded stiffly, circled the menu with his fingertips, and made a phone call. When she hangs up, she turns around and finds Gu Chixi sitting on the sofa behind and looking at her with intriguing eyes.
"President Gu..." The top of her head felt cold, "Is there something on my face?"
Gu Chixi waved to her.
Tan Jia was shocked.
Is the boss going to settle accounts with her? Deduct her bonus? Or... tired of watching Captain Wen, and want to attack her poor assistant? No - impossible.
She made up all kinds of situations in her mind and walked over as if she were dying.
Gu Chixi patted the position beside him, indicating. With a grunt in his throat, Tan Jia sat down and waited for the "doomsday judgment".
"Little Tan..."
"Hey."
Done.
"How long have you been following me?" Gu Chixi asked softly.
Tan Jia's palms were sweating, and she said truthfully, "Two years and three months."
When Gu Chixi was working in the UK, Tan Jia was one of her assistants. Later, when she resigned and returned to China, Tan Jia resolutely decided to follow her. Although they didn't work together for a long time, they trusted each other very much. Compared with Secretary Chen and Secretary Gao who were recruited later, Gu Chixi was more at ease to leave important things to Tan Jia to do.
She nodded after hearing the words, and after a moment of silence, she said, "The approval documents for the Jiangcheng Base will be available at the beginning of next month. Now you can start preparing for the recruitment, in the name of the headquarters."
"But..." Tan Jia paused and immediately reacted, "Oh, I see."
"The unveiling ceremony must be held before the end of the year."
Tan Jia sighed and breathed a sigh of relief. She thought what was going on, and was so frightened that she relaxed and asked, "Why so urgent?"
"Eastern Airlines wants to set up a branch in Los Angeles, but it's still waiting to see." Gu Chixi's voice was light, and he casually turned the cross ring on his hand.
"Let's guess whether TECO will act before the end of the year or next spring."
Although the establishment of a base is not considered a secret in the circle, the strategic planning is related to the fact that competition will be faced sooner or later. She just took this opportunity to take the initiative to test, no matter what kind of result will bring the company. Loss, but she can get the answer she wants.
Tan Jia vaguely understood, but could not guess what she was really thinking.
Just do what your boss tells you to do.
"I guess... If you want to get ahead of us, it can only be at the end of the year?" Tan Jia said.
Gu Chixi smiled and shook his head silently.
The cross ring turned round and round, making the fingers more slender and white, and under the warm orange light, I imagined that the fingers were covered with a layer of glittering | slippery liquid | body, which is invisible in the dark Wonderful sight.
"I'll give Wen Ning your mobile phone number and come out together later. If she can't reach me, she'll call you, what do you think?" She looked at Tan Jia.
Tan Jia suddenly understood something, nodded with a smirk: "No problem."
-Ha ha ha ha
She frowned and turned her face hastily.
"Don't hold back if you want to laugh."
"…"
"You scared her yesterday."
"I did not do it on purpose…"
As soon as the words fell, the hotel's landline rang, and Tan Jia immediately went to pick it up. The front desk said that there was a takeaway delivered to their room, and asked if they needed to be brought up. "Takeaway? We didn't order takeout. Did it deliver the wrong one?"
The front desk checked the information with her: "The tail number of the mobile phone is 1619, Ms. Gu."
"Mr. Gu, did you order takeout? Write your mobile phone number and surname." She turned her head and asked.
Gu Chixi was stunned for a moment and wanted to say no, but after a second thought, he said, "Wait, bring it up."
After checking into the hotel yesterday, the first thing she did was to report the address and room number to Wen Ning, to reassure her that no one knew her room number except herself and Tan Jia.
She and Wen Ning finished talking about half an hour ago...
She guessed it.
A few minutes later, the hotel attendant knocked on the door and brought the meal they had just ordered. Gu Chixi took the takeaway, put it on the table, and couldn't wait to open it.
The well-packaged lunch box is printed with the striking store name: Man Ying Porridge Shop.
On the receipt are two servings of raw fish porridge.
Gu Chixi held the receipt, his eyes fell on the name of the store, and memories flooded in his mind...
When she graduated from university, she and Wen Ning came to the capital to play. The two of them wandered around at will, walked into a "Manying Porridge Shop" and ordered a fish porridge each. At that time, she said that she liked it very much and would come again in the future, but she forgot when she went back.
Unexpectedly, after many years, the store is still there, so it happened to be near the hotel where she stayed.
Gu Chixi's eyes glowed with warmth.
"President Gu, you ordered takeout, can you still eat it?" Tan Jia put the dinner from the hotel on the table and pointed.
"It was ordered by Wen Ning," Gu Chixi blinked, fading away the water in his eyes, and picked up a porridge and put it in front of her, "This is all fish porridge, you can choose what you want to eat."
After speaking, he held his share like a baby and sat down at the dining table.
Tan Jia glanced at the dinner delivered by the hotel, the same fish fillet porridge and the udon noodles she ordered. Without thinking much, she decided to choose Wen Ning's takeaway. It's not early now, maybe it's better to drink porridge to digest, and besides—
Would she dare to refuse the porridge ordered by the prospective "boss"?
A fresh aroma permeated the table.
Gu Chixi drank the porridge very slowly. Apart from being hot, it also meant that she wanted to taste it carefully. The umami of the fish melted into the porridge, and the original fragrance bloomed on the tip of her tongue. She didn't quite remember the taste of that year. But subconsciously it feels the same.
The phone received another message from Wen Ning.
[How about porridge]
Gu Chixi stopped the spoon and immediately replied: [Delicious. ]
She couldn't help but bend her lips.
The chat box showed that it was typing, intermittently, she waited for a long time, but Wen Ning only sent a "good night" emoji.
Gu Chixi was a little disappointed, but still replied "good night", staring at the phone in a trance.
What do you want to say?
Tan Jia was halfway through drinking the porridge. Seeing that his boss was sitting still like a clay sculpture, with slight wrinkles between his brows, he said in doubt, "Mr. Gu, the porridge is going to be cold."
"...Well." Gu Chixi recovered and put away the phone.
Drinking a bowl of porridge absentmindedly.
After drinking the porridge, Tan Jia took the initiative to pick up the trash.
Gu Chixi went back to the bedroom, unable to sleep for a while, standing in front of the window watching the night scene. Tonight is the eighteenth of the lunar calendar, the moon is still round, hanging diagonally in the corner of the sky, and its brilliance is covered by the lights of the city.
Speechless light halo sprinkled her all over.
After watching for a while, she went back to the bed and sat down. She clicked on WeChat and read a few words from Wen Ning repeatedly. She was disappointed and backed out.
Wen Ning's avatar is displayed at the entrance of the circle of friends.
Gu Chixi clicked in curiously, and found that Wen Ning didn't obediently go to sleep, and only posted a message ten minutes ago: I once revisited the old place, but things are different.
The accompanying picture is the photo of the gate of "Manying Porridge Shop", the lower left corner was taken in June 2012…
Three months after she left.
The fingertips froze on the screen, pressing hard, Gu Chixi understood this dynamic, the beating heart seemed to stop for a second, was cut, and dense pain came.
[have not slept yet? ]
Wen Ning didn't reply.
In the second half of the night, Gu Chixi fell asleep and opened the WeChat Moments again, only to find that Wen Ning had deleted the post at some point...
At noon the next day, Gu Chixi returned to Los Angeles, and Wen Ning was watching the scenery at an altitude of 10,000 meters.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, General Manager Zhang of Air Asia Aviation Materials came to the company, and the two sat in Gu Chixi's office, talking about the delivery and procurement of aviation materials, and then had a meeting.
Uniasia Aviation Materials is a subsidiary of Uniasia Airlines, specializing in the production of spare parts for aviation materials, which is equivalent to self-production and sales, with external sales. The company's procurement is only a formality, and it costs almost no money, but it has the necessary processes and documents.
After receiving the news, Mr. Zhang ordered a thorough investigation. He turned the inventory, quality inspection and supervisors over to the bottom of the sky. It was found that the repurchased aviation materials were indeed qualified products when they came out of the warehouse, but it was very strange that, A part of Curry's substandard and inferior products that were about to be scrapped disappeared mysteriously.
"So, this batch of missing low-quality products entered the company's aviation material warehouse." Gu Chixi's cold voice echoed in the conference room.
Because the process is a formality, the people in the purchasing department did not ask to see the report that passed the quality inspection, and directly registered it and put it into the warehouse.
And the qualified products that have been released from the subsidiary's warehouse are missing.
A good way to steal the beam and replace the column.
People who can get inferior products without knowing it, and then repackage qualified products, must be very familiar with the operation of this whole process, and there must be someone who should cooperate with the inside and the outside, otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to do it by one person's strength.
Gu Chixi thought that even if she had looked at the documents at the beginning, she might not have been able to find it herself—if there was no accident, she would not have gone to check it, and naturally no one would have been able to find it.
And once an accident occurs, it is a series of uncontrollable accidents.
so cruel...
Several police officers are sitting in the conference room, and suspects will be taken to the police station for questioning. The next two days will be another day of unsafe life.
Gu Chixi didn't expect to find out the culprit immediately.
Maybe this will be a protracted battle.
…
Unexpectedly, the investigation of the case progressed quickly.
In less than two days, the criminal suspects were locked among three people. Among them, the warehouse manager, Li Mou, was the most suspect. In the afternoon of the same day, Li Mou went to the police station and surrendered, and explained it in 1510. The crime went through.
Li was fond of gambling and gambling. At first, he only played small games for fun. After winning a lot of money, he gradually felt dissatisfied, so he indulged in it. The idea of aviation spare parts was started.
Aviation materials are valuable, and a small screw hole can be sold for hundreds on the "black market", not to mention other large items.
But the premise is to bring a qualified quality inspection report.
He is familiar with the company's warehouse entry and exit control process, and knows that he usually doesn't check, but he can't buy something from the subsidiary's production warehouse for no reason, falsely claiming to buy unqualified parts and sell them to a recycling company, and part of the inferior quality Goods shipped.
There are regulations in the production workshop of the subsidiary company. The inferior products are stored in a centralized manner and cannot be disposed of at will. However, this regulation is relatively loose. When the waste is sold to a specialized recycling company.
His testimony is completely consistent with the clues obtained by the police investigation.
In order to confirm whether what Li said was true, after a second reorganization investigation, there was sufficient evidence, and Li and the employees of the production warehouse were arrested.
Cases are solved easier and faster than expected.
It looks like nothing more than a loss due to "internal chaos" and "loose management".
However, Gu Chixi faintly felt that something was wrong...
