The next morning, as soon as Qiu Xi arrived at the company.
Before she could even sit down, she was stopped by Xiao Xiao, who was beaming.
"What's this?" Qiu Xi asked, looking confused.
Why did this girl look so strange so early in the morning?
She was holding a pile of snacks, and seemed to be holding a bag, then she just stared at her.
Qiu Xi thought for a moment, she shouldn't have done anything wrong, right?
Like… snatching someone's snacks?
The more she thought about it, the more absurd it became, until Qiu Xi could only stare fixedly at Xiao Xiao.
"Qiu Xi, this is for you!"
"Thank you so much yesterday!"
As she spoke, Xiao Xiao solemnly placed all the snacks in her hands onto Qiu Xi's desk.
"Well… please tidy it up yourself…"
Looking at the small mountain, Xiao Xiao felt a little embarrassed at this moment.
After speaking, she ran back to her seat.
Qiu Xi, standing in place, glanced at the pile of snacks, feeling a bit bewildered.
Since it was almost time for the morning meeting, Qiu Xi casually tidied up, put the whole pile onto a small shelf nearby, and then hurried to the conference room with her notebook.
When she arrived, Qiu Xi specifically chose a seat, right next to Xiao Xiao.
"What's with that pile of snacks?"
She wouldn't dare accept it if she didn't find out the reason.
Xiao Xiao glanced around. A few people hadn't arrived yet, so she leaned closer to Qiu Xi and explained the matter very quickly and clearly.
After explaining, she added, "Just accept it with peace of mind. I have a lot more than you, so take it!"
Qiu Xi managed a smile. "…"
If only she had known!
If she had known, she would have voted for herself!
Really!
"Next time there's such a good thing, just tell me directly so I, as the person involved, can get in on it too!"
"…" Xiao Xiao gave Qiu Xi a suspicious glance.
Why did this look so strange?
"What? Is that not allowed?" Qiu Xi tilted her head specifically.
"No… no, it's not!"
"If there's a next time, I'll definitely tell you…"
This Qiu Xi!
She wasn't easy to deal with either!
She… she should just work obediently.
If there were such things in the future, she would definitely stay far away from them!
Seeing Xiao Xiao like this, Qiu Xi smiled.
Before Sister Tong entered the conference room, she quietly returned to her original seat.
This seat… no one was willing to sit in it, so Qiu Xi arrived and left as suddenly.
As soon as she left, the person next to Xiao Xiao leaned over to her.
"Xiao Xiao, what did she say to you?"
"…" Xiao Xiao rolled her eyes, but still explained the matter.
"…" The person looked foolish.
Not coming… never coming again!
Because of Qiu Xi's actions, she never saw anyone say similar things to her again.
Ten minutes later, the morning meeting started on time.
"Qiu Xi, stay behind. The rest of you, go do what you need to do."
As soon as Tong Mei finished speaking, everyone was gone in a few seconds.
"Sister Tong," Qiu Xi called out to Tong Mei.
"Mhm, help me tidy up, and then come to my office."
"Okay," Qiu Xi nodded.
After tidying up, they entered the office one after another.
"Sit down."
Tong Mei said to Qiu Xi, then sat down herself.
"This is for you, old rules."
Qiu Xi took it and glanced at it. It wasn't much, only two pages compared to yesterday's appetizer.
"Sister Tong, this doesn't require a whole day, does it?"
As she spoke, Qiu Xi examined it carefully. If she were to do it, this workload would probably take only one morning, and possibly not even extend to lunch.
She understood Tong Mei's previous mention of "old rules."
Because when she gave her tasks before, she always said it like this, meaning she could leave after finishing… To Qiu Xi's surprise, Tong Mei nodded, "Yes, it really doesn't take that long."
"Then what is this?" Qiu Xi asked, as Tong Mei's words seemed to have a follow-up.
"Mhm! You guessed correctly, I do have other things to give you, but I'm not sure if you can handle it. So, you can start with this. If you finish it early, bring it to me, and I'll tell you then." Tong Mei explained to Qiu Xi.
"Can't you tell me now?"
Qiu Xi became curious when Tong Mei said that.
Tong Mei shook her head, "No, I need to consider it further. You go back first, and we'll talk after you're done with this."
Qiu Xi could only nod helplessly and took the things with her.
Sitting down at her desk, Qiu Xi looked at the two pages in her hand again.
"Never mind, I'll focus on this first."
Thinking too much wouldn't help, she had to finish the work at hand.
With that, Qiu Xi quickly started typing.
The progress was indeed as Qiu Xi had estimated. Before noon, her task was completed.
Putting down her mouse, Qiu Xi smiled with satisfaction as she looked at the computer screen.
Click, send!
"Xiao Xi, you've finished already?"
Guo Qi next to her looked up and was a little surprised.
Qiu Xi didn't hide it and nodded directly, then picked up the snacks next to her and started eating.
While chewing, she looked at Guo Qi, who was still watching her, and casually offered some.
"Have some together."
"Thanks~"
Guo Qi, not understanding the situation, ate for a while and then became confused again, "Xiao Xi, why did you bring snacks today?"
The snacks in the office were in the pantry at the back, and there weren't these items…
At this moment, Qiu Xi looked at Guo Qi with a smile, shaking her head, "I didn't bring them~"
"Then this?" Guo Qi looked at the food in both their hands.
Qiu Xi continued, her eyes narrowed in a smile, "Xiao Xiao gave them to me this morning. Aren't they quite delicious?"
"…"
Guo Qi forced a smile, her chewing slowing down considerably, "Yes, they're quite delicious…"
But they weren't just delicious!
They were extremely delicious!
