Chapter 20: I Was Retained

Everyone here has their hearts lifted at this moment. Everyone pricked up their ears, for fear that they would miss their own name later. The atmosphere that was already very solemn and tense reached its highest point at this time.

When the female assistant said this, she also paused deliberately, and with a pair of wonderful eyes, she raised her eyes and glanced at everyone present.

The scene was silent, and almost everyone subconsciously held their breath. Only I wasn't nervous at all, and even took out another cigarette and lit the lighter with a bang.

Finally, the female assistant, who is good at creating tension, began to read out the list. Her eyes fell on the white paper in her hand again, and her voice was not loud, but she said very clearly: "Hu Guoliang, Zhao Ming, Li Bojun, Ji Yewei, Shi Shanshan, Dai Yong." The list has been announced, and the above six people are the retained personnel of our new company. Others, now they can collect your severance pay, pack up and leave. ”

What? I couldn't believe my ears, a puff of cigarette had just been inhaled into my lungs, and I couldn't help but choke and cough violently. This...... What's going on? Did I hear me right? My name is on the list of retained personnel?

Hearing the announcement of the list, many people present who were not named also made a noise.

"What? Only six? Why? Why so little? ”

"Is there a mistake? What am I worse than them? Why am I not on the list? ”

"It's not fair! I'm not convinced! I ask to talk to Mr. Tang again! ”

The people who are shouting are probably people who feel good about themselves and think that they will definitely be retained by the new company this time. There are also some people who don't feel hopeful, and after not hearing their names, they start to stand up silently, or sigh, or have gloomy expressions, but they are going to receive severance pay.

Before I finished coughing, I saw Shi Shanshan running towards me excitedly, grabbed my arm, shook my body in ecstasy and shouted, "Great! That's great! Dai Yong, did you hear that? We both retained! That's great! I'm so happy! ”

I was so shaken by Shi Shanshan that I almost didn't fall off the chair, and after standing up quickly, I hurriedly said: "I heard it, I heard it, oops, why are you so excited?" ”

At this time, Shi Shanshan didn't plan to keep it secret, looked at me excitedly, and said with a smile: "Do you know? Mr. Tang asked me to choose someone to stay and work with me, and I chose you! I guess you must have chosen me too, right? How else would we have been left together? Hehe, great, we can be together again. Dai Yong, let's go out and celebrate in a moment, shall we? I'm in for a treat, but you pay for it, hehe! ”

I sweat!

At this point, I still haven't figured out what's going on. Am I really being retained? This Tang Xiaoru, why didn't you remove me? Could it be that she is really selfless to the point where she can tolerate staying and working together with a person who has a personal grudge? Moreover, I have to have academic qualifications or no academic qualifications, or I have no talents, Tang Xiaoru has no reason to be selfless to me?

Either way, it's always a good thing to be retained by a new company. At the very least, I don't have to go through the trouble of finding a new job. I don't have to hide it from my family in every possible way, worrying that my mother will find out about my unemployment. With a normal and continuous source of income, the family will not fall into an economic crisis for the time being, and even if my mother takes back the blind girl, she will be able to cope with it.

In this list, I also heard Zhao Ming's name. I don't think it's because I chose him because I was able to stay, but it can be seen from here that the managers of the new company are still very humane. did not ruthlessly drive him away because the situation at Zhao Ming's family might drag down the company.

My gaze unconsciously looked at Zhao Ming, who had been sitting silently in the corner. It was a skinny man in his early thirties, wearing a pair of glasses, and his hair was as messy as ever. To be honest, because this person has always been taciturn and not good at interacting with people, there is actually no deep friendship between me and him. However, it was precisely because my own family was poor that I was able to understand his situation and difficulties. When his wife was diagnosed with liver cancer, I also secretly stuffed him with my one-month sales commission, so that he could ease the family's tense expenses a little. This time, I asked Tang Xiaoru to stay with him to continue working, which can be regarded as doing my part to help him. He's not much of my friend, but he needs the job more than anyone else. That's why I didn't choose Wei Hai and Shi Shanshan, who were good with me, to stay and work with me.

When I looked at Zhao Ming, I noticed that he was also looking at me. In his gaze, there was a little relief and joy. We looked at each other, and he nodded to me and congratulated me.

I smiled and nodded to him. At this time, I suddenly had a feeling that I understood something in his gaze. Could it be that when he answered Tang Xiaoru's choice question, he also chose me?

Those who were unwilling to be abandoned by the new company had already gathered in front of the female assistant at this moment, asking for an explanation and wanting to talk to Tang Xiaoru again. But the expressionless female assistant just said coldly: "I'm sorry, I'm only responsible for reading out the company's decision, not for explaining it." Mr. Tang is not obligated to meet and talk to you again, and her decision will not be changed. Please calm down, accept the reality, don't waste time, and get your severance pay and go find another way out early! ”

I saw that Wei Hai didn't make a noise around him, he just sat in his seat blankly, looking lost and at a loss. He's my friend, and I can't help but go and comfort him. So, I got rid of Shi Shanshan's pull, walked to Wei Hai's side, stretched out my hand and patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said, "Old Wei, don't be discouraged, I believe you will find a better job than now." Let's go, I'll invite you to dinner at noon. ”

Wei Hai glanced at me, but before he could speak, Shi Shanshan also followed. Following my example, he patted Wei Hai on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "That's it, man's husband, I'm afraid that I won't be able to find a job?" However, after you are gone, no one will say that they are willing to give everything for me. Wei Hai, I will definitely miss you in the future, hehe! ”
