Chapter 14: Lunch in the Cafeteria
Design Department on the 36th floor.
Lin Qing does not have any specific work arrangements yet. Her task in the morning is to configure the company's email on her computer and mobile phone, join relevant work group chats and familiarize herself with the work flow. If she doesn't understand something, she asks Tian Yutong, and Tian Yutong explains it to her carefully and patiently.
The whole morning was spent in exploration and adaptation. There were still 10 minutes left until lunch time. Lin Qing looked up and around, and felt that the atmosphere in the office was quite good.
She approached Tian Yutong and asked, "Our design department is full of young handsome men and beautiful women. Do you usually get along well with each other?"
"It feels pretty good."
Tian Yutong looked up and whispered, "But I want to remind you of one thing. The one sitting in the innermost of the third row is Zhang Xuejing. She is the leading designer of most major projects. The UI she designs is highly recognized by the leaders. For the same requirement, other people may need two or three days to sort out the logic before starting to design, but she is different. She usually starts designing in about a day, and the designs she designs are directly approved for use.
So she is very proud and doesn't listen to other people's advice. She only gets close to pretty girls and boys, but the premise is that the girls can't be prettier than her. She is the typical type who despises ugly people and is jealous of pretty ones.
Every time we go to the tea room or have lunch, we always go together with the girl next to her named Yu Nan. We rarely fit in with them. I think you are prettier than her. You should be careful not to make her hate you. "
Lin Qing blinked her eyes slightly, "Thank you for telling me this. Don't worry, but she and I are basically not on the same project, so I probably won't provoke her. If she provokes me, I might fight with her." After saying that, she smiled.
Lin Qing looks gentle and quiet on the surface, but he is tough at heart. If no one offends me, I will not offend anyone. If someone offends me, I will fight back.
Tian Yutong laughed and gave a thumbs up when he heard this. "You are awesome! I admire you!"
Seeing colleagues leaving their seats one after another, Tian Yutong picked up her phone and saw that it was already lunch time. She said to Lin Qing, "It's lunch time. I'll take you to the company cafeteria for lunch."
Lin Qing nodded, "Okay, thank you for your hard work." Then he picked up his phone and stood up.
She has received an access card, a meal card and an access card, and a 500 yuan subsidy on the meal card. This benefit was not available to Lin Qing in her previous company.
The cafeteria was in the first-floor lobby of another building, 50 meters away. After getting off the elevator, the two quickly arrived at the cafeteria lobby.
The cafeteria is very large and the overall style is simple yet grand, giving people a comfortable and relaxed feeling of home.
This is the peak dining time, there are a lot of people, the tables are basically full, and it is very lively.
As soon as he entered the door, he smelled the fragrance of food. Looking at the mouth-watering food not far away, Lin Qing's taste buds were instantly awakened and he secretly swallowed twice.
The two stood at the back of a line, and Tian Yutong enthusiastically introduced to Lin Qing which serving auntie gave the most, which one was the stingiest, which one had the best attitude, which one was the fiercest, and which side had the handsome guys.
Lin Qing looked at her excitedly and suddenly remembered the scene of going to the cafeteria to get food after class in college. Some lines were very long, and some were very short. According to experience, the long line was where the aunties who served the most food were, so every time he would stand behind the longest line without hesitation.
"It's our turn soon." Tian Yutong's words brought Lin Qing back to his senses. They both took a bowl of rice and went to get some dishes.
Lin Qing ordered a serving of shrimp and a serving of Chinese cabbage. Green vegetables are a must for Lin Qing at every meal. Others cannot live without meat, but she cannot live without green vegetables. If there is no green vegetables in a meal, she feels like she has eaten a fake meal.
Tian Yutong is a meat lover, and both of the dishes he ordered were meat dishes.
The two of them found a seat facing each other and sat down. It was a table for four people. There were already two girls sitting next to them, and they had already eaten half of their meal.
Perhaps he was hungry, so Lin Qing sat down, picked up the chopsticks and picked up a vegetable and put it in his mouth. "It tastes good." He said to Tian Yutong opposite him while eating.
"I thought it was delicious when I first came here, but I couldn't taste it anymore after eating too much. It just felt like it filled me up, and it's better than the small restaurants outside." After saying this, Tian Yutong took a bite of the pig's trotter and ate it with satisfaction.
After eating a few bites, they heard a commotion at the door. They looked in the direction of the sound, but could not see anything. Then they heard the two girls next to them exclaim in surprise.
"Wow, it's President Lu and Special Assistant Xu coming to the cafeteria to eat!"
"So cool, I feel like my food doesn't taste good anymore."
"Hurry up and take a closer look, otherwise they will enter the private room."
"We don't necessarily have to eat in the private room. I saw Mr. Lu and his friends sitting at the table outside to eat a few times before."
It turns out that humans are visual animals, and they will take a few more glances when they see handsome men and beautiful women.
At this time Lin Qing also saw them. The two handsome men were both dressed in suits and had tall figures. They were simply walking hormones. No wonder they caused a commotion in the cafeteria.
When seeing Lu Yanqi this time, Lin Qing felt very calm. It was just like seeing his leader every other day. He was no longer as nervous and excited as before.
What the girl next to them said was right. Lu Yanqi and the others walked into the private room.
Lin Qing had a small appetite, so she ate more than half a bowl of rice and was almost full after finishing the dishes. Tian Yutong was still chewing slowly after eating half of her meal, while the two girls next to them had already finished eating and were clearing their plates.
She saw Vitasoy on the other side of the restaurant. The shrimp she just ate was a bit spicy, so she said to Tian Yutong, "I'm going to buy a bottle of Vitasoy. Do you want some? I'll bring you one."
"Yes, thank you." Tian Yutong looked up and said to her.
After Lin Qing left, Tian Yutong ate while watching short videos. When she saw funny videos, she kept trying not to laugh and almost spit out the food in her mouth.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the opposite side: "My colleague, there is no one sitting here, can I sit here?"
Tian Yutong looked up and opened her mouth slightly in surprise, "Xu... Special Assistant Xu, oh... there's no one sitting over there, please take a seat."
She didn't know if the rice in her mouth fell when she spoke, so she immediately covered her mouth with one hand in embarrassment, lowered her head slightly, coughed lightly, and adjusted her embarrassing situation.
I thought to myself: How lucky I am today that I can have dinner at the same table with Special Assistant Xu. I can post on my Moments to show off.
While she was still immersed in her happy thoughts, she suddenly heard a deep and attractive voice, "Why don't you find an empty table? You will bring pressure to your colleagues."
"I follow the principle of proximity. I see there are two empty seats here. That side is a bit far and I was worried you wouldn't be able to find me." Xu Yang explained. He actually forgot to consider this point.
Mr. Lu, it’s Mr. Lu. Even without looking up, Tian Yutong knew it was the boss’ voice. She thought it was lucky enough to have dinner at the same table with Special Assistant Xu, but now she could actually sit with the boss. It was incredible. She was so excited that she felt like flying.
She felt that just posting on WeChat Moments was not enough to express her feelings at the moment, so she wanted to post on the company forum to make her colleagues envious.
