Chapter 174: Rumors {asking for monthly votes}
"Old Chen, why are you holding your arm all the time?" Gao Qiang couldn't help but ask when he saw Chen Qingrong returning to his workstation with his arm held.
Chen Qingrong made an excuse with an unnatural expression, "Well, I was in a hurry when I entered the company and accidentally bumped into someone. It's okay, it's okay, it's just a small matter."
He was too embarrassed to say that he was pinched by Tang Xiaoru.
Just after he got back to the company parking lot in Tang Xiaoru's car, before getting out of the car, Tang Xiaoru pinched his arm hard, and his arm turned purple through his coat. You can imagine how much strength she used.
But even if he was choked, Chen Qingrong didn't dare to say anything. After all, it was he who was the one who was so shameless as to say such words to scare Tang Xiaoru.
When Tang Xiaoru heard what Chen Qingrong said, she felt embarrassed and angry, because such words would inevitably make her brother misunderstand that she and Chen Qingrong...
Although Chen Qingrong later explained that it was just a joke.
But how could a woman who had been fooled easily forgive the bastard who fooled her?
So Chen Qingrong's arm was hit beautifully.
Of course, he was definitely embarrassed to tell Gao Qiang about this kind of thing.
Otherwise, what if Gao Qiang laughs at me?
Gao Qiang sighed softly at this time, looking a little resentful.
Chen Qingrong opened his mouth and asked, "What's wrong? Did your girlfriend dump you?"
Gao Qiang rolled his eyes. "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever have a girlfriend? I'm just worried about my salary."
"Didn't you say that the pay slips will be issued tonight and tomorrow morning? What are you worried about? How can such a big company delay our wages?" Chen Qingrong felt that Gao Qiang was worrying unnecessarily.
He also asked Tang Xiaoru about the late payment of salaries this month. After inquiring with the finance department, Tang Xiaoru told Chen Qingrong that it was late because there was a problem with the tax filing and the system was delayed.
The salary will definitely arrive in your account tomorrow morning at the latest.
Chen Qingrong asked again, "Besides, don't you have savings? Why are you so anxious to get your salary?"
"It's true that I have savings, but that doesn't stop me from wanting a salary. After working so hard for a month, isn't it just for that little bit of money?"
"That's true." Chen Qingrong nodded in agreement.
Gao Qiang asked him back, "How much money have you saved? You don't need to tell me the exact number. Just tell me if the money you have saved is enough to buy a house in Shanghai, get married and have children."
Chen Qingrong smiled bitterly, "How is that possible? The housing prices are so high, and there is no sign of them falling. Even if I really get married and have children in Shanghai, I will probably rent a house."
Another possibility is to live in the Tang family.
But if you think about it this way, wouldn't he be a live-in son-in-law?
If a man marries into another woman's family, few of them will have a good ending.
Chen Qingrong suddenly became curious about how he and Tang Xiaoru got married three years later.
Given his personality, he would definitely not marry into the family.
But without a house, how could the Tang family possibly marry their precious daughter to him?
It’s okay for you to get married without a car, but it’s really unacceptable to get married without a house, right?
"Could it be that Uncle Tang is giving me a house? That would be no different from marrying into the wife's family. I don't think I would want it."
"Then there is only one possibility. Three years ago, I suddenly became rich and bought a house."
"But it seems that there is no chance of advancement in my current job. How can I save enough money to buy a house in three years? Youth waits for no one, and neither do housing prices."
Chen Qingrong really couldn't understand it.
Even though there were spoilers to support him, he knew that he and Tang Xiaoru would definitely have a happy ending.
But the road to happiness doesn't seem to be so smooth.
"Brother Chen." Xiao Yuan came back from outside holding a cup of coffee, walked straight to him, and patted his arm, "Let's go over there and talk alone."
Chen Qingrong said okay and stood up.
Gao Qiang deliberately said with dissatisfaction, "What secrets do you two have that you can't tell in front of me? Are you isolating me again? That's too much."
Xiao Yuan said casually, "How can I isolate you? I'll tell you later." Then she and Chen Qingrong went to the water dispenser nearby.
The location of the water dispenser is also called the Bagua position, because it is a place that the surveillance cameras of the entire design department cannot capture, so many people will come here when they gossip.
The Feng Shui is excellent.
There is water in the water dispenser, and above it is the vent.
Feng Shui, Feng Shui, there is wind and water.
"what happened?"
"Um, Brother Chen, I have something I don't know whether I should tell you. I'm afraid you'll feel hurt if I tell you, but if I don't tell you, I'm afraid you'll blame me."
Xiaoyuan looked a little embarrassed to speak.
Chen Qingrong was happy, "Just tell me, don't worry, I won't be angry at all."
Xiao Yuan hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Do you know Mr. Deng from the Marketing Department?"
Chen Qingrong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a tall figure appeared in his mind.
He remembered.
He had previously seen Mr. Deng and the director talking and laughing as they left the company, but the director had explained to him at the time that it was just a social event and could be understood as a simple interaction between colleagues.
He still trusts Tang Xiaoru more.
So I didn’t take it seriously later.
But now that he heard Xiaoyuan bring it up, he frowned immediately, "I've heard that he's like our Deputy Director Qi, a foreign-educated person, what's wrong with that?"
Xiao Yuan said weakly, "Well, I also heard it from a good friend of mine in the marketing department. She said that Mr. Deng said during a dinner party in the marketing department that our director was dating him, and he asked others not to spread the word."
"Oh? Really?" Chen Qingrong suddenly sneered, "How come I didn't know that the director was dating him?"
Xiao Yuan said fearfully, "Brother Chen, please stop laughing. Your laugh is so cold, like a knife in the cold winter."
Chen Qingrong came to his senses and patted her shoulder. "It's okay. I'm not angry with you. Fortunately, you told me about this. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know that someone likes to spread rumors."
"Leave it to me, don't worry about it."
Xiaoyuan immediately asked, "What are you going to do? Beat him up? Do you want my help?"
Chen Qingrong smiled. "It's against the law to hit someone. Am I the kind of reckless and impulsive person? Just leave it to me."
"Oh, good."
Chen Qingrong first asked Xiaoyuan to go back to her workstation, and then he pretended to take a document and went to Qi Long's office.
He went up and knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
Squeak.
Chen Qingrong pushed the door open and found Qi Long putting his 45cm big feet on the table and carefully applying nail polish.
Seeing Chen Qingrong coming in, he realized that this might be a little indecent, so he put his feet down.
"Designer Chen, is there anything wrong?" Qi Long smiled.
