Bai Lu nodded. "Got it." She took out her design and handed it to Buck. "I finished it last night. Thank you for your help."
Buck's lips curled into a smile. He took the blueprint from her and put it aside without looking at it. "Do you need me to get someone to send you back?"
"No need." Bai Lu shook her head and said, "I drove here myself. Thank you."
He shrugged nonchalantly. "You don't have to thank me. Someone asked me to do it."
Bai Lu was stunned when she heard the words "someone asked me to do it". She seemed to have heard a secret, but before she could fully digest it, her phone rang.
It was Guan Chao's number. Bai Lu covered her phone and nodded at Buck. She then left his study in a hurry.
As she walked toward the staircase, she picked up the call. "Assistant Guan."
Guan Chao's voice was gentle. "Congratulations, Miss Bai. You've been hired by EC. You can come tomorrow. Is there a problem?"
Bai Lu was surprised to hear the news. She didn't know how to describe her feelings, but she replied calmly, "Thank you, Assistant Guan."
"That's your own ability." Guan Chao paused before he said, "But I have another piece of good news to congratulate you on. When you submitted the design for the municipal building, the higher-ups unanimously approved it. They think that it's best to use your design for the bid, but there are some details that you need to modify. Come to EC in the afternoon. I'll wait for you in the design department. "
This news really surprised Bai Lu!
She couldn't help but grip her phone tighter. She seemed to be in disbelief. "Assistant Guan, are you saying that … I'm going to use my design for the bid for the municipal building?"
"You heard me right."
"…"
"Miss Bai, I have other matters to attend to. Don't forget to come by in the afternoon. 2 p.m."
Bai Lu was still in a daze when Guan Chao hung up.
After a long while, she put her phone away. She still felt like she was floating in the clouds. This unreal feeling accompanied her all the way to EC at 2 pm.
She didn't expect that the first person she met at the design department wasn't Guan Chao or the director of the design department, Li Tingshen, but Liang Jingxiao, who had been waiting there for a long time.
"I heard that you've entered the design department. I'm here to congratulate you."
Liang Jingxiao was really well-informed. She hadn't even officially entered EC yet, and she was already rushing over to congratulate her?
Bai Lu looked at her expressionlessly. "Miss Liang, if you really have something to talk to me about, please give me a call in advance. After all, this is the company …"
"I know this is the office. Why? Can't I see you here?"
"I don't have the habit of talking about personal matters at work."
"Heh." Liang Jingxiao snorted coldly and slowly stood up from her seat. "What a dedicated employee. No wonder my brother thinks so highly of you. Now that Sister Ye Lian is back, he let you enter the design department. But don't worry, I'm not here to talk about personal matters with you. I'm also an employee of EC's design department now. I think that Bai Lu isn't the only one who can enter the design department, right? "
Bai Lu frowned. "You're in the design department?"
Wasn't she pregnant? And wasn't she preparing for her wedding with Xiang Longjin? What was she doing now that she was in the design department?
"You're the only one allowed to enter, but I'm not?" Liang Jingxiao pursed her red lips and smiled slightly. Her tone was contemptuous. "Your grades were indeed better than mine when you were in school, but I've been studying architectural design for the past few years while you were working as a secretary. Now that you can enter the design department, why can't I? "
"That's not what I meant." Bai Lu couldn't be bothered to argue with her over such a boring matter. Anyway, whether she entered the design department or not, it was Family Liang's company. "Miss Liang, you've said everything you wanted to say to me, right? If you're done, I'm going to meet … "
"Wait a minute." Liang Jingxiao reached out to stop her. She took out a red wedding invitation from her bag. Bai Lu's expression changed slightly. She heard her say, "This is the wedding invitation for me and Longjin's wedding. If you have time, come over for a meal. No matter what, we've been friends for so many years, and we'll be colleagues in the future. If possible, I hope that we won't be at each other's throats again. "
Bai Lu looked at the wedding invitation in Liang Jingxiao's hand. Her red eyes were slightly swollen.
She couldn't help but close her eyes slightly. However, she still reached out to take the invitation. She looked up and smiled at her gracefully. "Congratulations, Miss Liang."
"It's good that you're sincere."
Bai Lu didn't want to say anything more. She walked past Liang Jingxiao and headed for the office.
Liang Jingxiao, who was behind her, watched her enter the office. Only then did she take out her phone from her bag and make a call.
"Ye Lian -jie … Um, I've already entered EC. Are you coming over next week? It's okay, I'll help you keep an eye on her … Um? I know that her design drawings are going to be in the bidding for the municipal committee building … Don't worry, I won't let her stay in EC's design department … "
Bai Lu successfully entered EC's design department. This time, they recruited a total of three people. One was Bai Lu, the other was Liang Jingxiao, and the other was a man called Lei Yi.
The office was already full of people. With three people suddenly entering, Liang Jingxiao's seat was naturally blessed by nature. However, Bai Lu and Lei Yi, who also didn't have any backing, were a little more troublesome.
Previously, the few gossipy women in the design department didn't like Bai Lu. This time, she was officially an employee of the design department, so they were even more dissatisfied.
Bai Lu knew very well that going up to the office was like entering an enemy camp. She just wanted to work quietly and didn't want to cause any trouble. Therefore, when she chose the office desk, she chose the worst corner.
"Miss Bai." Lei Yi exerted a bit of strength in his legs and the wheelchair immediately leaned in Bai Lu's direction. The office desk he chose was right next to Bai Lu. "I heard that you're going to participate in the bidding for the municipal committee building tomorrow. This time, Mr. Liang gave you full authority to take charge of this task, right?
This news could be said to have been confirmed two hours ago.
In fact, Liang Feifan really gave her a difficult problem. He suddenly asked her to participate in the bidding for the municipal committee building. When the time came, she would have to perform on stage to explain …
She had never dealt with such a situation before. Moreover, the bidding was tomorrow. Wasn't this asking her to make a last-minute effort?
When she thought of this, Bai Lu felt a headache, but she couldn't bear to give up.
After all, everyone knew that this was a good experience.
When you were a little better than others, people would be jealous. But when you were a lot better than others, people would only look up to you.
"En." She nodded. This Lei Yi was the friendliest person in the design department to her. "You can call me Bai Lu. We're colleagues. There's no need to be so distant."
"Then you can call me by my name in the future. My name is Lei Yi." The man smiled foolishly. His handsome face revealed a bit of shyness. "I used to work in a small company. I didn't expect that I would have the chance to enter EC. I'm really happy. I've seen your design drawings. You're really amazing. "
"Thank you. You flatter me."
Bai Lu smiled. But in her heart, she kept thinking about where she should start explaining her design drawings in order to win this project in one fell swoop.
"Go on with your work. I won't disturb you. Good luck tomorrow."
Lei Yi saw that she was absent-minded. He didn't say anything more to her and quietly returned to his seat.
On the first day of work, Bai Lu looked at her drawings and made changes. She put all her energy into the explanation tomorrow.
However, she was still afraid that she wouldn't be able to perform well. So when she got off work, she asked Guan Chao for the location tomorrow and drove over. She decided to take a look first.
They chose the top floor of the hotel venue. Bai Lu didn't expect to bump into Chu Weiye when she was waiting for the elevator.
That day, after his car hit her on the road, he sent her to the hospital. However, when she turned around, Bai Lu found that her handbag was missing. At the time, she wasn't sure if it was really in Chu Weiye's car. Plus, his identity was so special that she didn't dare to look for him directly. After that, she had to go through the trouble of reapplying for all kinds of lost documents.
She didn't expect to bump into him again today. Bai Lu thought that her identity was even more sensitive now. Moreover, Chu Weiye came to the hotel at this time. He was probably a superstar producer related to tomorrow's bid.
Bai Lu didn't want to have anything to do with him at this time.
So, she subconsciously stood to the side. She just wanted to reduce her presence. Maybe someone like Chu Weiye wouldn't recognize her at all.
However, the moment this thought flashed through Bai Lu's mind, the man standing next to her looked at her with a half-smile.
"What a coincidence. We meet again." Chu Weiye put his hands in the pockets of his trousers leisurely. Behind him was a person who looked like an assistant. His eyes were fixed on Bai Lu's face.
Bai Lu's heart trembled. She didn't expect him to recognize her. She could only smile gracefully. "Hello, Mr. Chu."
Chu Weiye heard her call him "Mr. Chu" politely and raised his good-looking eyebrows. "You left something at my place. Aren't you going to come and get it?"
Bai Lu was stunned. It turned out that her handbag really was at his place. "… I thought I lost it. I'm really sorry, Mr. Chu. I've troubled you. If it's convenient, I can go to your company to get it myself. "
This woman …
When she was talking to him today, she kept calling him "Mr. Chu." She spoke gracefully, but she didn't look at him directly. Was she trying to avoid suspicion?
Of course, Chu Weiye knew that she was currently in EC's design department. If he guessed correctly, EC would be sending her to the bidding for tomorrow's municipal building.
He didn't expect that a picky person like Liang Feifan would choose such a young and inexperienced girl.
Young and inexperienced …
