Chapter 28
The expression on the mother's face suddenly became serious. Looking at Cheng Yin's previous blind dates, she dared not be blindly optimistic about her daughter's life-long events.

"Yinyin, let's not talk about the past, but today I see this Yang Fan, he is indeed a nice person, you..."

"Oh, mom——" Cheng Yin stomped her feet, "Can you please stop messing with me!"

"Okay, okay! Don't talk, don't talk anymore!" Seeing that her daughter was in a hurry, the mother quickly put it away, and retreated outside the kitchen door, "You wash the dishes carefully!"

In the living room, Father Zhou had already spread out his treasured painting of flowers and birds on the clean dining table, and he was taking Yang Fan to appreciate it together.

"Look, from the brushwork of this branch and bird's claw, we can basically conclude that it is the authentic work of Master Xu." The old man is still making unremitting efforts to identify the authenticity of this painting.

Yang Fan leaned closer to the details listed by his father with a magnifying glass and carefully studied them for a while, then nodded and said: "Uncle is right, but it's better to ask an expert to confirm it."

The old man's expression became a little more disturbed, "I asked several experts to read it, some of them were telling the truth, some were telling the truth, there is no certainty."

Yang Fan smiled, "The experts I'm talking about are the ones with certified qualifications. Well, I happen to have a friend who specializes in antique collection. When I make an appointment for you, you can give him this painting." Looking at it, it’s almost clear.”

"Well then, where is he?"

"Shanghai."

"Huh? Then, then I have to go to Shanghai?"

Mother Zhou suggested nonchalantly, "If you find it troublesome, just give the painting to Xiao Yang, and when he goes to Shanghai to show it to others, it's fine. However, I think it's fake in all likelihood. "

A troubled look appeared on Father Zhou's face.

Yang Fan said: "This painting is probably the real one. Uncle's way of identifying it just now is very reasonable. I have seen the works of this master in the antique shop before, and I really said so."

The old man hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth, rolled up the scroll, and solemnly entrusted it to Yang Fan, "Xiao Yang, I'm sorry."

"This." Yang Fan was not afraid of trouble, and asked half-jokingly, "Aren't you afraid that if it's true, I'll lose my bag?"

"I can trust you!" Father Zhou said seriously.

Yang Fan was moved by his childish expression, so he took it boldly, "I may go to Shanghai next week, uncle, wait for my news."

When leaving Zhou's house, the old man pushed Cheng Yin out, "You, you go see Xiao Yang off, ah! Go see off!"

When Cheng Yin and Yang Fan went out, Father Zhou turned his head and praised Zhou's mother, "This Yang Fan is not bad! Really good!"

Mother Zhou sneered, "It's not too late to say that after the painting is verified to be true."

"Hey, I'm telling the truth, it has nothing to do with that painting!" Turning his head, he murmured to the chandelier in the living room, "I have to give him a chance."

Cheng Yin sent Yang Fan downstairs, pointing to the painting in his hand, "Are you really going to help my dad appraise the treasure?"

"By the way, your father seems to value this painting."

Cheng Yin curled her lips, "My mother and I are not optimistic about it, my father has never experienced wealth luck in his life."

Yang Fan smiled, "It's not about money, I think, as long as this painting is real, no matter how much it's worth, your dad will be very happy."

Cheng Yin looked at him with admiration, "You know my dad really well, you are like his bosom friend!"

Before he knew it, he arrived in front of Yang Fan's car. He carefully put away the painting, turned around and told Cheng Yin, "It's very tiring to fly, go back and rest early, girls don't stay up late."

Cheng Yin felt that tonight he was different from usual, more like a big brother, considerate and gentle, so she smiled sweetly at him, "Thank you so much today, Brother Yang Fan!"

Yang Fan smiled, got into the car, turned around and saw Cheng Yin standing outside the car window, he waved to her.

"Be careful on the road! Goodbye!" Cheng Yin bounced back to make way for him.

She was wearing the little yellow flower dress on the day of the birthday party, and Yang Fan's eyes could not help sweeping to her chest, but the lovely brooch was absent.

The weather was hot, and by the time he pulled the car out of the parking space, Cheng Yin had already bounced and ran back.

Yang Fan suddenly remembered that the bracelet was still in his car, and wanted to chase after her to give it to her, but on second thought, it was better to forget it, there must be a reason for giving the gift, and it would not be too late to find a suitable opportunity to give it later.

He moved the car slowly, watching Cheng Yin running quickly towards the gate of the community from the rearview mirror.

For a moment, he really hoped that she would stop and turn around to look at him, but unfortunately, she didn't stop for even a second until her figure completely disappeared from his sight.

Cheng Yin never dreamed that she would see the card man again, and it was at AST.

Early in the morning, everyone gathered in the meeting room and waited to meet the rumored new colleague. When Zhi Gaoxiang led the people in, Cheng Yin immediately cast her curious eyes on that slightly reserved face, but this look seemed to be frozen. Technique, imaginatively fixed her in place.

"Lin Ruhui, Jimmy Lin, a master of management from F University, entered AST as soon as they graduated, and soon joined the company's trainee program. They went to the United States for two years as an intern. They were personally instructed by Mr. Edowrd and are Edowrd's favorite students. One of them, after returning to China, served in the southern office of AST. So far, he has worked for AST for eight years, and his record is outstanding..."

Gao Xiang counted Lin Ruhui's achievements in an unhurried tone, while the latter kept a touch of indifference on his face, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

Liu Zongwei leaned closer to Cheng Yin, his voice was as low as a mosquito moaning, "This chief really has a lot of background! Even Edowrd has been touched by him."

Cheng Yin recovered from her dazed state, "Who is Edowrd?"

"The top professor in AST University Village!" Liu Zongwei looked at her with hopeless eyes.

"Oh, oh." Cheng Yin remembered, it turned out to be the spiritual leader who was worshiped like a god by the whole company.

Lin Ruhui's eyes seemed to be covered with a protective film, drifting over the faces of his new colleagues in a detached and polite manner, and only when he saw Cheng Yin clearly, his eyes were fixed and he showed a little knowing smile.

Cheng Yin also smiled back, the world is big and full of surprises, but at the same time it is small, so you can always bump into the most unexpected people at the most unexpected moments.

"Jimmy has accumulated a wealth of consulting experience in strategic planning. The purpose of this transfer is to expand the business scope of our department and even the whole company. I believe that in the future cooperation, Jimmy will bring us many surprises. Let us respect him. I would like to extend my most sincere welcome to you!”

Gao Xiang finished the introduction with a full voice, showed an impeccable smile, and introduced his generals to Lin Ruhui one by one.

When it was Cheng Yin's turn, the smile on Lin Ruhui's face suddenly increased, and he stretched out his hand unexpectedly, "Hello, Fanny!"

Cheng Yin shook hands with him a little helplessly, "Hi...Mr. Lin!"

"Please call me Jimmy." Lin Ruhui corrected her with a smile.

The strength of his hands and serious smile seemed to remind Cheng Yin that he had not forgotten the previous encounter.

"Hi, Jimmy." Cheng Yin smiled shyly.

The name Jimmy reminded her of the murderous violent gangster in the American movie "The Thieves". However, Lin Ruhui's image and temperament fit well with his industry, and she didn't even see him. There have been consultants who are more like consultants than him.

After letting go of her hand, the warmth of Lin Ruhui's palm still lingered in her palm, and a touch of joy and joy suddenly jumped into Cheng Yin's heart. At that moment, she remembered the prayer she said before the birthday cake.

"God! You really do exist!"

When she raised her eyes, she found that several strange eyes were rushing towards her, and Cheng Yin blushed gorgeously.

In the afternoon, on the way to meet the client, Liu Zongwei teased Cheng Yin to his heart's content.

"Fanny, now you have become famous in the company! Do you know that Gordon led Lin Ruhui all over the company, and he shook hands with you alone! You said you How attractive is it!"

Cheng Yin understood what was going on in her heart, and said with a sneer, "Brother, it's just a handshake, why are you so delusional?"

"Hey, don't take this seriously! I heard that Lin Ruhui is famous for his arrogance in the southern office, and no one pays attention to it! Oh, he shakes hands with you as soon as people come, you are not bald The lice on the head are obvious!"

"What is obvious?"

"I see you!"

"Stop talking!" Cheng Yin is not so nympho to be led by the nose by gossip.

She hesitated whether to tell Liu Zongwei how she picked up the money, but in the end she chose to keep her mouth shut. Some things are better not to say.

"Hey, hey!" Liu Zongwei talked more and more enthusiastically, "He has just arrived, and he hasn't recruited a single soldier. Maybe he will ask Gordon to ask you to go there. Are you going or not?"

Cheng Yin's heartstrings seemed to be accidentally touched, and she was also fascinated for a while. After all, there will be no surprises in Gao Xiang's place in a short time. Will Lin Ruhui's arrival mean a new turning point?
But she soon laughed, and before she could write her horoscope, she had already figured it out.

"Do you want to go?" Liu Zongwei asked with a smile.

"If you really want such a good thing, why don't you go? Go!"

Liu Zongwei stared at her slyly, "Aren't you afraid of Gordon?"

"I'm just a handyman. How can this kind of talent competition be my turn?"

"Don't underestimate yourself." Liu Zongwei was serious, "By the way, there will be an interview at that time. Although it is a formality, you have to prepare well. Come! I will give you a try."

"Tell me, what is your greatest strength?" He squinted at Cheng Yin with the eyes of an old man.

"Humble and pragmatic."

"What about your greatest weakness?"

"My biggest flaw is that I have no flaws."

"You are too immodest!"

The two leaned back and forth laughing in the car.

Cheng Yin said: "Don't patronize me to rehearse, have you ever thought about going over there?"

"I'm not very interested!" Liu Zongwei shook his head, his eyes showed a bit of vicissitudes, "To be honest, I have been in AST for more than four years. What it was like before, what it is now! Sometimes it is very boring to think about it! It is very fast to go from beginner to advanced level, but it is difficult to think about going up, unless there are special contributions. Moreover, no matter how hard I try, I will There are only two or three levels left to climb, and the Chinese are capped at level [-], and they will always be ranked below the laowai, no matter how stupid the laowai is! For me, I have reached the bottleneck period of my career!"

Cheng Yin could only listen to Liu Zongwei's complaints, after all, the two were not on the same starting line.

"I don't know what the real intention of Master Lin's visit this time is." After expressing his emotions, Liu Zongwei turned to other thoughts.

"Didn't it be said that it is specially used to expand the scope of large businesses?"

"I don't think so." Liu Zongwei shrugged, "Didn't you see that on the organizational chart, he reports directly to Frank? This means that he and Gordon are at the same level and belong to the same boss. Don't look at Gordon's enthusiasm in the morning. Promoting him brimmingly, maybe that smile was forced up. The future is unpredictable!"

Cheng Yin is annoyed by this kind of office politics the most, but she has to be on guard. If she is not careful, she will step on a thunderstorm. After thinking about it, there is no good way to prevent it, so she sighed, "Why do you care so much?" , just do your own thing.”

Liu Zongwei glanced at her, "You are in such a good mood."

That day I stayed at the client's company very late, and when I came out, the night sky was already dotted with stars, and Cheng Yin was hungry, so the two found a restaurant to eat something.

While waiting for the meal, Liu Zongwei took out his iPad to check emails, and soon woke up. It turned out that the HR department had sent emails, and Lin Ruhui was really recruiting, and it was marked that it was both inside and outside the company, with internal priority.

"Here, do you want to try it?" Liu Zongwei asked Cheng Yin pointing to a certain consultant recruitment.

Cheng Yin looked at the request, immediately sniffled and returned the PAD to him, "The requirements are too high, and I don't take any of the experience he requires, so it's basically useless."

Liu Zongwei actually didn't encourage her to charge forward, and nodded in agreement, "Lin Ruhui is smart, but this kind of person has a problem. He only likes smart people, and he can't tolerate subordinates who don't understand, so ordinary people will suffer if they follow him."

Seeing Cheng Yin's face twisted slightly, Liu Zongwei hurriedly explained, "I didn't mention you!" Fu lowered his voice again, "I just heard that Peter went to his place to apply for a job."

"You know?" Cheng Yin twitched her lips, "Why are you updating every 10 minutes like a piece of news!"

Liu Zongwei snorted proudly, "There are people in our personnel department." After a pause, he smiled thoughtfully, "That idiot Peter is destined to be cannon fodder this time."

"Brother, let's accumulate some virtue." Cheng Yin frowned and greeted her mushroom chicken rice.

The expected fierce PK did not take place as scheduled. In Lin Ruhui's office, people of all kinds came in and out, which was extremely lively. Sometimes Gao Xiang's figure would come and go, and everything seemed so calm. Cheng Yin subconsciously felt that Liu Zongwei was a little nervous .

After sorting out a piece of information, Cheng Yin took the cup to the tea room to refill the water, and met Lin Ruhui unexpectedly.

"Fanny." His voice was clear and soft, and Cheng Yin felt that it was a kind of enjoyment for him to spit out her English name from between her teeth.

She tried to smile back with the fullest smile, and this seemed to be their first time alone in AST.

"You seem to be busy all the time." She greeted him with an empty glass.

Lin Ruhui took a sip of the coffee or tea in the cup, with a humorous smile on his face, "Tell me, isn't this world small?"

Cheng Yin's smiling face immediately stretched to the maximum, why did he steal his lines!However, can this also be understood as a tacit understanding?
"Fanny, can I ask you for a favor?" Lin Ruhui continued to look at her with a smile.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Cheng Yin felt that Lin Ruhui seldom smiled across the crowd, but every time he met her, he could show her the most perfect smile.

Is this the so-called...fate?
"Just say it." In such a harmonious and warm atmosphere, Cheng Yin naturally couldn't think of any reason to refuse.

"I checked the information last night and found that the version of the brochure we used is very old. I want to make a new version. Oh, I know that this kind of thing is usually handled by the assistant, but," he smiled slightly, " I'm afraid my assistant won't be available anytime soon."

During lunch, Cheng Yin had already heard about the pickiness and harshness of the chief consultant's selection of candidates. The interviews of external candidates were still in full swing, but few of them caught his eye; There are a lot of them—the minimum job level for this recruitment is level eight, which is equivalent to a senior consultant, and AST has a lot of middle and low-level consultants at present—the situation seems to be better than that of the outside world, but so far there is no I heard it was officially confirmed.

"Of course." Not to mention that Cheng Yin is always willing to help others, what's more, this handsome guy might be her destined one.

"Thank you, Fanny!" Lin Ruhui smiled with satisfaction.

It took Cheng Yin three days to complete the first draft of the manual requested by Lin Ruhui.She took the printed renderings and rushed to show Lin Ruhui. On the way, she bumped into Gao Xiang who came out of the personnel department.

"What is this?" He noticed the thing in Cheng Yin's hand at a glance.

Cheng Yin unfolded the manual without hesitation and showed Gao Xiang a copy. When the explanation was finished, she found that Gao Xiang's face was not very good-looking, and her heart froze. It seemed that she shouldn't hide Gao Xiang's work for Lin Ruhui, but she didn't mean to hide it. Yes, I am too used to helping Zhang San and Li Si, and I never thought of showing my merits in front of Gao Xiang.

Fortunately, Gao Xiang didn't say anything, just nodded and let her go with a sullen face.

Lin Ruhui was satisfied with the speed and quality of Cheng Yin's work, and praised her without hesitation, Cheng Yin inevitably felt elated.

If what Liu Zongwei said before is true, does it mean that she is indeed not one of those people who don't know what to do?
Cheng Yin finished her errand, happily returned to her seat, and when she passed Peter's cubicle, she vaguely heard him talking on the phone with someone, with an angry tone.

When she sat back in her seat, she heard a crisp "boom" sound from behind, as if the microphone and the phone were colliding violently.She looked back in horror, only to catch the back of Peter running fast.

After returning home from get off work, Cheng Yin was sitting in a taxi rubbing her temples, and Liu Zongwei called her again. He was away on a business trip for the past two days.

"Did Gordon have a quarrel with the HR department today?" His tone was excited like "the world is finally in chaos".

Cheng Yin was startled, "Is there such a thing? I don't know!"

Liu Zongwei despised her again, "Look at you, being in the company all day is not as good as me who is far away."

"There is no one in my personnel department!" Cheng Yin interrupted him angrily, followed by curiosity, "What's going on?"

"For Peter." Liu Zongwei's tone was a bit sour, "Lin Ruhui wanted him to come over, but Gordon refused to let him go, saying that the personnel department's actions were unethical, and it was clearly trying to tear him down, and Lin Ruhui could definitely hire someone outside. "

"What did the HR department say?" Cheng Yin became interested when he heard it.

"What they mean is that internal recruitment is the priority for employees. As the department leader, Gordon should not block those who have the conditions to transfer jobs, but Gordon refuted them. This transfer is too sudden. He is not prepared at all here. It is easy to affect the progress of the project and attract complaints from customers. Anyway, both parties insist on their own opinions, and no one can convince the other.”

"It all makes sense." Cheng Yin also had a hard time deciding right from wrong. Although internal transfers are a good thing, it is indeed a strange case to change bosses in the same department and get promoted one or two levels, which is very unfavorable to Gao Xiang. "What in the end?" Sample?"

"Undecided!" Liu Zongwei said, "On the surface, the personnel department is operating, but in fact, no one knows that this is Lin Ruhui's idea! But Master Lin is really calm, watching them arguing, he doesn't say anything, it's not a big deal. Guan Ji's appearance can be seen just by his appearance, this is a ruthless character! Just wait and see, there will be fun to watch in the future!"

Cheng Yin thought of Peter's angrily looking back, and Gao Xiang's stern face asking herself for the first draft of the manual, and she felt uneasy in her heart, and sighed softly to the phone that had been hung up, "What a crow's mouth!" !"
