Chapter 22 (1/2)
Yup, Xiao Qiu is heading straight towards Li Chuan once again However, a new “rival” has appeared on scene I don’t think he’s going to pose h She’s still got the sah Li Chuan has been gone for so long Obviously, no one can measure up to him
[Chapter 22]
If each day’s transportations costs weren’t able to be expensed, based on alness, I would definitely have squeezed onto a bus instead of taking a taxi to work Ever since discovering that working as a translator was sothe same habit as Li Chuan I would rather spend money than bothera taxi It saves the inconvenience of asking for directions
I took a taxi to the nineteen story Xiang Lai building, CGP’s Chinese headquarters The HR reeted me She took me to tour the offices of each department, the conference rooms, the lobby, and coffee shop I discovered that there weren’t ether, there were about 30 in total, including three foreign architects, tho spoke French and one who spoke Gerh they had thick accents, they were all extre Fei said that these three foreign architects didn’t understand o through an interpreter In addition, all important con files had to be prepared into three languages, Chinese, English and French, and sent to the Switzerland headquarters In addition, more than half of the Chinese architects here were not proficient in English, French, or German Therefore, all important announcements and mail had to be translated into Chinese to be passed down At the same time, if the Chinese architects had to contact headquarters, a translator also had to be included “Therefore, the work of the translator group was very i Lai building here Li Chuan worked When I was together with Li Chuan, he had mentioned it more than once But Li Chuan always kept work and personal life separate He was extre to allow outsiders to bother his personal life So, I only recognized one person in CGP and that was Li Chuan’s secretary, Zhu Bi Xuan
After listening to Cai Jing Fei’s introduction, I suddenly realized that the translator who left the country on a F2 visa was Zhu Bi Xuan who had been working here for seven years
After seeing all theFei said, “The chairman, the vice-chairman, the chief architect and their secretaries all have their offices on the twentieth floor Please co tomatters and had to head out We’ll see vice-chairman first”
We went up in the elevator to the twentieth floor and headed into an office space decorated exceptionally luxurious On door of the second office, I suddenly caught sight of a plate saying “LC wang” In that instant,squeezed and I couldn’t breathe
“Do you not feel well?” Cai Jing Fei asked, noticing that ht, I didn’t feel well I wanted to run away in anxiety
“No Perhaps I’ to ned a relaxed s Fei said, “The office just now is the office of our co Li Chuan He is a Swiss-born Chinese person and can speak fluent Chinese”
I asked, “Mr wang isn’t here today either?” The office door was seht inside, one could see it fro used to be the chairman and the chief architect of CGP He is now the chairman of the headquarters in Switzerland, our superior He still has n projects in China on his hands, so we keep his office Once in a while, he returns to Beijing to work It’s not too frequent”
“So he was promoted”
“It should be said that the job required it CGP Architects is a part of the invest’s family enterprise Our current chairman and vice-chairman here were both once his trusted lieutenants” Adoration ritten all over her face and exuded fro doesn’t like other people calling hi If you run into hih he coentle and he is extre hall with everyone else”
“Oh”
“Mr wang is brilliant and talented, a legend in the architecture circle When he was transferred away, everyone here as broken-hearted”
“Oh” I felt that Cai Jing Fei’s tone was filled with emotion
In a daze, I followed her into the third office The first roo here the secretary worked There was an interior room deeper in “Xiao Tian, this is our new translation departlish translator, Annie Is it convenient to see Mr Zhang right now? I made a reservation yesterday”
“Please co for you”
Vice-Chaired man His skin was dark, he had a short stature and an aquiline nose, characteristic features of southerners Sure enough, his speech carried a thick Chongqing accent He shook hands with s, so it can be said that we had become acquainted with each other He had a call and we took the opportunity to coonally across from the elevator There was a really nice desktop in the office In addition, the coht I would never have even dreaet a Sony laptop so quickly
I turned on the co [email protected]/ / — my exclusive company account — to check email My task was to translate everyfor lish to Chinese or froe of French and Gere a, there was a huge list of e the Mr Rene to the France branch Mr Rene had taken over the post of Mr Jian as the chief architect of the France branch It was a standard eh his secretary, Lu Si
It only took me three minutes to translate it into Chinese and forward it to everyone in the company At the same time, I also happily discovered that this job was fairly effortless I finished translating all the docu hall to eat lunch
The dining hall was on the eighteenth floor There was no need for the elevator, walking took a really short ti hall was laid out like a buffet and provided both Western-style and Chinese food I took sorant spicy fish pieces, and a cup of coffee and started to eat alone at a table Shortly, a fashi+onably dressed lady, holding a plate of salad, asked me extremely politely whether she could share a table with roup My Chinese nalish translator, Annie, right?”
“Yes” I stood up to take the tea cup from her, “I am in 1902, nice to meet you”
“I a, did you just graduate?”
“Yes, I a”
“Bi Xuan just left last week It was really sudden and the coently but didn’t want to start the hiring process So they directly scooped you out fro out her charh price”
“Nah,” I said, “Jiu Tong has recently taken on a lot of contracts and it’s really busy over there They’re also lacking people”
“We were all trying to guess ould coey over” She said, “But you are so young, so we are also really surprised Are you even twenty yet?”
“Twenty-two You?” I thought that she didn’t look too old either
“Thirty-two”
I was surprised, “No way I think you only look around twenty-five”
“First of all, I’m not married Second of all, I eat salad and take vitamins every day” She used her fork to stab a few pieces of leaves with Italian dressing on theusto
“E have you worked here?”
“I was ae when I cao, Li Chuan was still not yet twenty years old and hadn’t graduated college yet Evidently this company was already established when he came
“Looks like you really like it here”
“That’s right Do you knohy I’le?” She suddenly smiled mysteriously
I shook my head
She leaned over and whispered, “I’ve tried to seduce every chair irl to believe in it — Of course I’ after work? I know of a couple stores that sell fairly good clothes Also, do you go to the spa? I have a few gift certificates to theood facials I have two certificates for there I can’t use both, so I’ll give you one”
She stopped speaking and took out a certificate fro and placed it into my hand
“Thank you Eht, E it in a refinedyou have in your hand is very unique”
She really knew her stuff Li Chuan had bought this Gucchi bag for ave it totio”
“You boyfriend must have made a lot offive years ago It was extreled over whether to buy it and wasn’t willing to The real thing costs more than twenty thousand It’s more expensive than a nice laptop It’s quite fashi+onable paired with your pair of Calvin Klein jeans It’s fashi+onable but not eye-striking”
Li Chuan had also bought these jeans He didn’t like to go shopping, but his eye for clothing was i in my hand and quickly said in a careless ”
“If I couldn’t tell the difference between real and fake, how could I stay at this international company? When Cai Jie introduced you today, every fe They all said that you irlfriend”
I shook irlfriend is Tao Xin Ru from the human resources department”
“How is that possible? I’m very familiar with Tao Xin Ru She’s always been in unrequited loves Even though Xiao Guan is fickle, his reputation in the industry is considerably good He would never date someone from his own company Tao Xin Ru is very intentional, she probably hoped to use her sincerity to have Xiao Guan give in So she finally got hiain, “In short, I definitely, definitely, airlfriend”
“Really?” E on the entrance of the dining hall She chuckled and unexpectedly pinched my cheeks with her scented, delicate hands
I raised my head I saw that Xiao Guan had entered at some point and had walked over to stand in front of me
“Chief Xiao” I stood up at once
“Annie” Xiao Guan greeted E”
“Chief Xiao, you are acquainted with E and I are from the same school She’s a year older than s”
“Xiao Guan, how co raised her head to look at hi smile on her face
