Yesterday, Dong Xuebing had used his BACK to practice and adapt.
On Wednesday morning, Dong Xuebing received a call from Qu Yunxuan to have breakfast at her place.
Qu Yunxuan might have an important client coming to her workplace. She was wearing a white office lady attire. Her fair skin and voluptuous figure made her look very attractive. Tan Limei and Changjuan could not be compared to Qu Yunxuan. Even the prettiest girl in Dong Xuebing's university was not as pretty as Qu Yunxuan.
"Aunt Xuan." During breakfast, Dong Xuebing could not help but say: "You are so pretty today."
After saying this, Dong Xuebing felt a little regret. Why did you say that?!
Qu Yunxuan blushed and raised her hand to hit Dong Xuebing. "Stop talking nonsense! Are you looking for a beating? "
Dong Xuebing kept quiet and shoved the porridge into his mouth.
"Slow down. Who wants to fight with you?" Qu Yunxuan rolled her eyes at Dong Xuebing and took out a napkin to wipe his mouth. She said gently: "Yesterday is your first day at work? How do you feel? Let me tell you, you can't talk nonsense in the office. It's a place of rules. If you offend a leader, you'll have a hard time in the future. So, you can't act like you did in school anymore. You have to talk less and flatter the leaders. Do you understand? "
Dong Xuebing replied: "I understand."
After breakfast, Dong Xuebing bade farewell to Qu Yunxuan and went downstairs.
Dong Xuebing met Mrs. Xu and her son downstairs. She seemed to be going out with Xiao Dong and was waving a taxi. Mrs. Xu's eyelids twitched when she saw Dong Xuebing. She quickly calmed herself down and greeted: "Xiao Bing? Are you going to work? Are you tired from work? " Ever since Dong Xuebing became a Civil Servant, Mrs. Xu's attitude towards him had changed. She was no longer as arrogant as before.
Dong Xuebing replied: "It's alright. I am busy in the morning and have some free time in the afternoon."
Xiao Dong stared at Dong Xuebing and got into the taxi first.
Mrs. Xu also opened the car door: "Xiao Dong said he wants to go to the Antique Market. We will leave first."
"En." Look, once you enter the government, everything is different. Otherwise, you might even become an official!
With a relaxed mood, Dong Xuebing took the bus to the Western District Branch Bureau. He smiled at the guard and greeted him. After that, he followed a few unknown staff members into the grey building and entered the office. After putting down his things, Dong Xuebing picked up a broom to sweep the floor.
In the past, cleaning the office was Guo Panwei's job. He wanted to show off in front of his superiors at all times. However, ever since Chief Zhou was admitted to the hospital last week, Guo Panwei stopped sweeping the floor. Why? The leader wasn't watching, so there was no point in performing so well!
"Oh, Xiao Dong, you are here early?" Guo Shunjie walked in with his bag.
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Yes. There was no traffic jam today, and I arrived earlier."
Behind them, Guo Panwei and Chang Juan chatted as they entered the office.
Tan Limei was the fifth person to arrive, and Zhuang Zhi was the sixth. Old Yan was the last person to arrive.
Wednesday's workload was much lesser than Monday and Tuesday. Seeing that Tan Limei did not need any help, Dong Xuebing took a mop to the bathroom along the corridor to wash it. He also mopped the door of the office. Someone had spat a few mouthfuls of spittle and melon seed shells. It was very dirty.
As Dong Xuebing was cleaning, he heard footsteps from the end of the corridor.
Dong Xuebing looked up and saw a man in his 50s walking towards him. His legs were not moving well. His left leg was slightly bigger than his right leg. It was as if he was suffering from cerebral thrombosis. Dong Xuebing knew this man was Deputy Chief Zhou, who had been hospitalized for a week. He was the head of the General Affairs Department. His superior!
Dong Xuebing wants to leave a good impression with the leader and pretended not to see him. He continued to mop the floor with all his might. He looks like he is a hardworking person.
"You are?" Zhou Changchun asked.
Dong Xuebing pretended to see him and was stunned for a while. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and said: "Ah … … You are Deputy Chief Zhou? Nice to meet you. I am new to the office. My name is Dong Xuebing. You … … "
Zhou Changchun nodded and said: "Ok." Dong Xuebing did not say anything and pushed open the office door.
"Deputy Chief Zhou, I … …" Dong Xuebing was still waiting for his superior to ask him more questions. But he did not expect him to leave. Dong Xuebing was stunned. What's wrong with his superior?
But just when Zhou Changchun thought that Deputy Chief Zhou was not a friendly person, Zhou Changchun walked into the office and greeted all the staff: "Thank you all for your hard work. Haha, during my stay in the hospital, did anything happen in the office?" Zhou Changchun asked.
Tan Limei smiled cheekily and said, "Chief Zhou, are you still worried about us?"
Chang Juan smiled: "That's right, Chief Zhou. When did we embarrass you?"
Guo Panwei immediately walked over: "I will prepare some tea for you."
"Chief Zhou, are you feeling better?" Guo Shunjie asked.
Dong Xuebing was stunned. After he regained his senses, he slapped himself on the forehead. Dong Xuebing finally understood why Zhou Changchun treated him so differently. Damn. Everyone addressed him as Chief Zhou without the word 'Deputy', but Dong Xuebing addressed him as Deputy Chief Zhou. Although it was only one word, the meaning was totally different. Removing the word Deputy and addressing him as Chief will make people feel comfortable. This was an unspoken rule in the government sector. Everyone addressed him this way.
Actually, Dong Xuebing also knew about this. Grandpa Hu had told him about this in the hospital. But in the past, this was not related to him, and he did not know about this. Now, when he entered the government sector, he did not know what was going on. The next day, he offended the leader and made a huge mistake!
Dong Xuebing panicked and shouted: "BACK!"
… …
The scenes in front of Dong Xuebing.
The melon seed rind that had been swept away reappeared beside his feet.
Thud, thud, thud. Dong Xuebing could hear the sound of leather shoes landing on the floor.
"You are?" Zhou Changchun's weak face appeared in front of Dong Xuebing.
"Ah, you are Chief Zhou?" Dong Xuebing replied energetically: "I am new to the office. My name is Dong Xuebing. Nice to meet you, Chief Zhou."
Zhou Changchun smiled and nodded: "Young man, you look energetic. You arrived yesterday? Are you familiar with the work? "
Dong Xuebing replied: "Thank you for your concern. I am almost familiar with the work."
Zhou Changchun patted Dong Xuebing's shoulders: "Ok. Do your best."
Zhou Changchun's attitude was completely different from before and after.
He had said the word 'Deputy' wrongly.
Dong Xuebing wiped the sweat off his forehead. What a close shave!
