Chapter 33
Lin Jun didn't get the New Year's gift he wanted.
Because when Fu Jiujiu put down the bowl and chopsticks, he hadn't figured out how to speak yet.
So he leaned forward to clean up the dishes.
Fu Jiujiu couldn't help being slightly taken aback when he saw him holding the rim of the bowl carefully, and then stretched out his hand to stop him.
The tableware in his house is purchased in sets, and it is difficult to mend it if it falls.
But Lin Jun was very insistent. He thought that since Fu Jiujiu was cooking, it was only natural for him to wash the dishes.
Fu Jiujiu couldn't resist him, so he had no choice but to let go of his hand.
In the process of washing dishes, Lin Jun has been very careful, protecting the tableware of Fu Jiujiu's family very well.
However, when he returned to the living room again, there was the small red lacquered wooden box that Fu Jiujiu brought back on the coffee table.
Fu Jiujiu raised his eyes with a smile, and pushed the wooden box to him: "Happy New Year, senior."
Lin Jun was startled, and asked, "My New Year's gift?"
"Well," Fu Jiujiu nodded, looking forward to it, "Do you want to open it and have a look?"
Lin Jun seemed a little surprised.
He walked slowly and sat down opposite Fu Jiujiu, his eyes fixed on the bright red lacquered surface of the wooden box, and he did not move for a long time.
It seems to be looking at the reflections of sunflowers and magnolias on it.
The flowers were brought by Lin Jun, and they are exuding a pleasant fragrance vigorously at the moment.
For some reason, Fu Jiujiu suddenly felt that Lin Jun didn't seem to be happy because of receiving the gift.
He became a little hesitant, but Lin Jun looked up at him again, and asked, "How can I open it?"
With just this one sentence, Fu Jiujiu's apprehension dissipated, and his joy returned.
It turns out that Lin Jun has been looking for a way to open the box just now.
He laughed and reached out to press the round bump on the side of the box.
With a clicking sound, the lid of the box popped up, and inside were two bottles of valuable red wine, both of which were Lin Jun's favorite types.
Lin Jun looked at it for a while, then raised his eyes and said to Fu Jiujiu, "Thank you."
Fu Jiujiu laughed: "You sent me off too."
What Lin Jun gave him was a set of original comics, which meant a lot to him.
Under Fu Jiujiu's smile, Lin Jun nodded again and said, "I like it very much."
Fu Jiujiu laughed again. He felt that the two of them seemed to be complimenting each other, which was interesting and funny.
Lin Jun stared at the corner of his upturned mouth, watching very intently, and did not look away for a long time.
Fu Jiujiu finally felt that something was wrong, he stopped smiling, and rubbed the corner of his mouth with his fingers in doubt: "Is there something on my mouth?"
Lin Jun nodded, but did not speak. He only fixed his eyes on his lips with an extremely focused expression.
Then, he raised his arm, leaned over, stroked the corner of his lips with his fingertips, and then rubbed his lips with his palm.
The temperature of his palm was very high, and the strength was also a bit strong, rubbing and deforming his two soft lips.
When Fu Jiujiu was about to tilt his head to dodge, that hand quickly retracted.
Then Lin Jun said seriously to Fu Jiujiu, "It's clean now."
Fu Jiujiu curled up his fingers in doubt, rubbed the corner of his mouth with his knuckles, and smiled embarrassedly.
Lin Jun's slightly wet palm closed gently where Fu Jiujiu couldn't see it.
There was a little smile in his eyes too.
The wet and warm touch in the palm seemed to be firmly grasped.
He thought, this is okay, it can barely be regarded as a kiss, right?
The work pace of NF is very fast, especially in the apparel and beauty groups.
During afternoon tea time, Fu Jiujiu ordered milk tea and desserts for his colleagues, and then went to the sample room.
After finishing work in the sample room, when he took his assistant on the elevator, the deliveryman from the milk tea shop happened to deliver the goods.
Three boxes were stacked together, and the deliveryman was sweating on a cold day.
Fu Jiujiu met his eyes and couldn't help asking: "Why are you here today?"
The delivery man was Chen Pengpeng, the son of Fu Jiujiu's stepmother and ex-husband.
Chen Pengpeng wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "It's almost Chinese New Year, and there are not enough people."
Chen Mengju is a strong person, while Chen Pengpeng has been very cowardly under the pressure of his mother for many years.
It wasn't until he opened this milk tea shop with his current girlfriend that he slowly became independent.
His girlfriend is disabled, beautiful and capable, but cannot speak.
Chen Mengju was extremely opposed to the relationship between the two, and even believed that Chen Pengpeng had no choice but to find such a partner because of his lack of success in his career.
Therefore, I have been trying to open a coffee shop and a western restaurant for Chen Pengpeng...
Helplessly, Chen Pengpeng was determined to live with his current girlfriend. The mother and son had just fallen out a while ago, and Chen Pengpeng had already moved out of the house.
Fu Jiujiu nodded, and when he reached the floor, he handed over the materials in his hand to his assistant, and helped Chen Pengpeng move a box out.
The assistant was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to do, so Fu Jiujiu smiled and asked her to go first.
He moved one box into the clothing department office by himself, and Chen Pengpeng moved the other two boxes to the offices of several other departments.
When Fu Jiujiu entered the door, he bumped into Wu Qiuran coming out of the bathroom.
While sharing a cup of milk tea and a box of cakes, he jokingly said, "Yo, Editor Fu is really a living Lei Feng, it seems that there is still less work for you."
The assistant complained: "Bian Fu knew that person."
Wu Qiuran looked at Fu Jiujiu again: "Bian Fu also knows someone who delivers milk tea?"
"What's the matter?" Fu Jiujiu nodded at him with his chin: "I not only know the milk tea delivery person, I also know the milk tea drinker."
Just when Chen Pengpeng finished delivering the goods, he came in with his head and called Fu Jiujiu in a low voice: "Brother, I'm leaving."
"Well," Fu Jiujiu nodded, "Slow down on the delivery and pay attention to safety."
"What brother?" Wu Qiuran sneered, bypassing Fu Jiujiu and asking Chen Pengpeng.
Chen Pengpeng glanced at Fu Jiujiu, turned and left without paying attention to Wu Qiuran.
Wu Qiuran bumped into a wall suddenly, and couldn't help but ask eccentrically, "Could it be your real brother?"
Fu Jiujiu frowned and turned around, picked up the freshly unpacked cake in front of him and threw it into the trash can.
Wu Qiuran's face turned red: "What are you doing?"
"You have to throw away things that are useless," Fu Jiujiu said indifferently, "After all, it can't shut your mouth."
Someone laughed, and Wu Qiuran became even more furious. He stood up abruptly: "Have you stepped on your foot sorely?"
Since Fu Jiujiu joined the job, everything he wears and uses are of high value.
But he doesn't drive and never talks about his family.
To say that his family is average, but he is neither humble nor overbearing in his dealings with others, he seems to have a lot of confidence.
Therefore, even though Wu Qiuran regarded him as a thorn in his side, he maintained a superficial peace and did not tear his face.
It's just that the situation is different recently, because there are rumors recently that Chang Qing is very likely to resign after the Spring Festival.
Wu Qiuran had inquired about Qin Moxun, and the news was likely to be true.
If Chang Qing leaves, the position of editor-in-chief of the clothing department will become more delicate.
If you don't recruit people, it is very likely that one of the three assistant editors will be selected.
Wu Qiuran didn't think that Mary would pose any threat to him, so Fu Jiujiu became more and more annoying in his eyes.
"What hurts your feet?" Fu Jiujiu asked.
"It's a sore foot that the family can't handle." Wu Qiuran snorted angrily.
"Oh," Fu Jiujiu nodded, "So it's a sore foot for you because of ordinary background?"
"He is indeed the younger brother of my family, but I never thought it was shameful." Fu Jiujiu smiled: "I thought that lack of ability, lack of morality, and a person's pain in the face of admiration, didn't they?" ?”
Wu Qiuran's face turned pale, because everything he said hit his heart squarely.
Wu Qiuran was so angry that his hands shook: "Did you have any objections to me?"
Fu Jiujiu laughed at what he said, and he looked at Wu Qiuran with a smile, motionless and full of interest.
Wu Qiuran was flustered by his eyes, and it took a while to realize that she was the one who picked on other people's affairs first.
He also threw the milk tea cup into the trash can with a bang: "What kind of stinky thing is it for people to drink?"
Other colleagues in the office who are drinking milk tea and watching a movie: ...I feel offended.
Fu Jiujiu ignored him and took milk tea and cake into Chang Qing's office.
Chang Qing was talking on the phone, and when he saw him, he gestured for him to wait a moment.
Fu Jiujiu sat down on the sofa.
"I was looking for you," Chang Qing hung up the phone and said to Fu Jiujiu, "You must have heard that I will leave NF after the Spring Festival."
Fu Jiujiu nodded: "I've heard people say that Editor Chang is planning to give up the paper media?"
Chang Qing smiled: "The trend of the times, although the status of NF is unlikely to be affected in a short period of time, but it is undeniable that the future should still be dominated by new media."
Fu Jiujiu nodded again.
After all, Chang Qing chose the new media again, just like the original world.
"After I'm gone," Chang Qing said, "You may need to take over this position."
"Is there no other suitable candidate?" Fu Jiujiu asked.
"A few people have been interviewed by the editor-in-chief's office and the HR department." Chang Qing didn't hide anything: "But the editors of large magazines seldom change jobs to peer magazines to start over, and the editors of small magazines have high eyesight and low abilities, so there has never been a very suitable one." candidate."
"But, according to seniority..."
"Seniority?" Chang Qing smiled: "This business doesn't depend entirely on seniority, and I'm not blind."
Fu Jiujiu lowered her eyes and smiled.
He is no stranger to this position, because he has sat in this position for two years and has devoted a lot of effort to it.
If it was before, he would never hesitate.
After all, this was his original intention, he just came here and tried hard to get on the right track.
But now, he still hesitated.
Because Zhi Ren's popularity was considered an accident, and his future work plan had to change accordingly.
He was afraid that he would not be able to take care of both in the future.
"I know you young people are not very stable," Chang Qing smiled: "Let's not talk about you, even I am the same. It is natural for people to go to high places."
Fu Jiujiu looked up at her.
"If you are worried about not being able to support this position, then there is no need. According to my observation, you are more than capable," Chang Qing said: "If you have other plans for the future, if you are not in a hurry, I suggest you Let’s move on, once you’ve been the editor-in-chief of NF, your worth will vary wherever you go in the future, talents are fluid, and no one will hold you forever.”
"When will the editor-in-chief resign?" Fu Jiujiu asked.
"It depends on your acceptance," Chang Qing said, "I will take you for a month or two after the Spring Festival, and then report to the new company."
Fu Jiujiu finally nodded: "Okay, I'll take it."
"I really didn't expect you to hesitate, I thought you would be ecstatic," Chang Qing tilted his head thoughtfully, and then smiled with relief: "But you can't regret it if you pick it up, the official announcement will be at Come out after the Spring Festival."
The annual meeting is scheduled to be held in the large reception room on the 29th floor of the imperial court, and everything has been arranged a day before.
This morning, the road was very congested.
Stopping and stopping all the way, finally arrived at the traffic light closest to the imperial court. The queue of cars was extremely long, and the end could not be seen at a glance.
Fu Jiujiu reckoned that without the three signal lights, he probably wouldn't be able to pass smoothly.
He breathed a sigh of relief, lowered the car window halfway, then lowered his head and lit a cigarette, smoking and waiting slowly.
His car was flamboyant and attractive, and it soon attracted a lot of curious eyes.
Che Ye, a handsome man, holding a cigarette between his thin white fingers, is especially attractive, those eyes stay longer, and the frequency of sweeping is higher.
Fu Jiujiu was used to this and didn't pay much attention to it.
Only this time, among the many curious gazes, there was an extremely cold gaze, which was gloomyly hitting him.
Sure enough, after three traffic lights, Fu Jiujiu finally bent over with the traffic while he was struggling.
Champagne, wine, flowers, food...
The handsome men and beauties were all dressed up in a glamorous way, and the hall was full of jewels.
But as soon as Fu Jiujiu appeared on the stage, he still immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Editor Fu."
"Editor Fu."
"Editor Fu."
"..."
Fu Jiujiu nodded with a smile, took off his coat and handed it to the waiter.
As soon as the coat was removed, one of PN's two limited edition suits that had not yet been released to the public was revealed.
PN sent two sets to Fu Jiujiu, and because many details of the other set have not been released, Fu Jiujiu chose this set.
NF once borrowed the same set from PN, and it is still in the sample room, so he can be sure that this set is allowed to release details and take photos for publicity.
PN's tailoring and design are perfect, highlighting all the advantages of Fu Jiujiu.
Even if he didn't spend much effort in other places, he still became the most dazzling one in the audience.
A pair of straight and slender legs, a narrow and tough waistline, a slender neck exposed above the smooth shoulder line, and a deep collarbone...
The suit looks very simple at first glance, but in an instant it compares to the well-dressed clothes of other men and women.
The color is a temperamental smoky gray, which makes Fu Jiujiu look more distant.
So he put on the sunflower gemstone necklace that he only wore once, and two ruby earrings the size of rice grains on his ears.
Because it is extremely small, a very faint light is refracted on the thin white earlobe during movements, making people want to see more clearly, so they cannot move their eyes away.
This kind of matching is not high-profile in the crowd, but it makes him "live" all at once.
Because there were still many people not present, the atmosphere at the scene was very relaxed, and people who knew each other gathered together to drink and chat in twos and threes.
Ever since Chang Qing talked to Fu Jiujiu that day, there have been some rumors within NF.
Therefore, the employees of the clothing department all toasted to Fu Jiujiu.
Fu Jiujiu didn't drink very well, so everyone drank casually.
While it was buzzing, Wu Qiuran came up.
He brought a glass of wine to Fu Jiujiu: "Bian Fu, shall we have one?"
As usual, Fu Jiujiu clinked his cup and took a sip, but Wu Qiuran finished it with his head raised.
"Just one sip, so stingy?" He said, then leaned closer to Fu Jiujiu, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "It's really shameless to rent a luxury car and secretly wear brand samples!"
Fu Jiujiu frowned, looked over Wu Qiuran's shoulder, and saw that someone from the brand had arrived, so he greeted him as if he hadn't heard it.
Wu Qiuran looked at his straight back with gloomy eyes: "Don't you know how your family is? No matter how much you pretend, a pheasant can't become a phoenix."
The second day of the annual meeting was the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.
As the New Year approaches, a hot search quietly arises on the Internet.
The hot search photo is the back view of a young man.
He had a slender figure, and because he tilted his head slightly, the light cast a hazy light on his thick and slender eyelashes.
Probably because of the alcohol, there was a faint blush on his snow-white cheeks.
He held the wine glass in his hand, tilted his head slightly, and was talking seriously with people.
Although he couldn't see his face clearly, he could be seen with just a little side cheek. He should look very good.
And the temperament is superb.
Especially the clothes he is wearing are limited edition items that PN has not released yet.
This photo was reposted by many marketing accounts, and the accompanying text came from a unified format:
I am so disappointed with NF, the editor even sneaked a brand sample to participate in the event, LOW exploded.
No name was named, but a so-called "informed person" soon pointed out that this is Fu Jiujiu, assistant editor of NF Apparel Group.
Driven by caring people, this topic has rapidly risen in popularity.
In fact, as a fashion practitioner, it is not uncommon to "borrow" brand clothing.
Most people just turn a blind eye and close one eye, which is the norm in the industry.
But if it is picked up by someone alone, the nature is quite different. After all, the public does not understand this kind of thing.
Especially when this kind of thing happened to the editor of the top fashion magazine NF.
After being deliberately played up by someone with a heart, this matter is no longer a matter of Fu Jiujiu alone, and it also involves the reputation of NF.
Fu Jiujiu didn't know about this.
Due to the extreme shortage of manpower at the end of the year, the female models invited by the company to try makeup could not be there for some reason.
And there are very few female employees in the company who are tall enough.
The photographer took a look around, and only Fu Jiujiu was handsome and beautiful, with clear skin, which perfectly met the requirements.
So he coaxed him to the studio to try on a few sets of branded women's clothing and test the makeup by the way.
He was wearing a spring dress and a wig, and the makeup artist held his chin in helplessness and put makeup on his face.
Each outfit needs to be matched with different makeup looks, and there are dozens of lipsticks sent by the beauty makeup team alone.
It might take a whole day to try it.
Therefore, even though there was an uproar on the Internet, it did not affect Fu Jiujiu in the slightest.
Instead, Lin Jun, who had just come out of the conference room, was the first to get the news.
As soon as he came out of the meeting room, the personal assistant waiting outside quickly greeted him and handed him the information on the phone screen.
Lin Jun went back to the office while watching.
After the office door was closed, the assistant immediately reported to him: "I have contacted PN just now, and Mr. Pan's secretary said that he has an appointment today, and he cannot be contacted for the time being."
"Pan Xiangyang probably thinks that Fu Jiujiu has no background and is just a small editor of NF, so he doesn't want to stand up for him." Lin Jun sneered: "Besides, this trending search is up, who do you think will benefit the most?"
The assistant thinks about the comments on Weibo, one is to scold Fu Jiujiu and NF, the other is to praise Fu Jiujiu for his good looks, and the third is to praise PN's fashion design.
I don't know how many people shouted that even if they don't buy other clothes for half a year, they must have this suit in their pockets.
Although it is not yet possible to determine whether there are other beneficiaries, PN is indeed the most obvious beneficiary now.
"This kind of news is not going to be trending. Someone must be pushing it later. You should first adjust the surveillance to see who took the video, and then check who is making it hot." Lin Jun continued: "I guess, Pan Xiangyang Maybe he's pushing it too, it's impossible for him to speak up for Fu Jiujiu now."
The assistant replied: "Yes, I will check immediately."
"Also," Lin Jun said, "Remove the PN project for three days and tell Pan Xiangyang's secretary that the system needs maintenance."
The New Year is the best time for traffic, and it will be off the shelves for three days, and the loss of PN is unpredictable.
The assistant was stunned, and Lin Jun said: "Do as I say, I want Pan Xiangyang to beg me."
The author has something to say: Jun'er has once again started the overlord mode ING
