Chapter 28
Huai's mansion is only a 20-minute drive from Huaijing's residence, but Huaijing's residence is close to the sea, while the Huai's mansion is close to the mountain. In a forest near the mountain, the Huai family mansion complex encircles a huge boundary.
Although the Huai family's mansion is large, it is mostly a garden, fountain, and golf course. There is a building facing the gate
Republic of China
The villa in the architectural style of the period is about five floors when you look up. Next to this villa, there are two other buildings that look like a well-designed complex.
Entering from the gate, the car drove smoothly on the road in the courtyard, passing through the vegetation sculpture and the fountain in the middle, and the car stopped in front of the main house.
As soon as the car stopped, someone came to open the door. After getting out of the car, Huaiwan happily took Xu Xingxing's hand and said, "Let's go, teacher."
Xu Xingxing who was being pulled: "..."
Huaiwan has a kind of courage that will never give up until she achieves her goal. The strength of this courage comes from the environment and people around her. It is easy to see that her usual wishes are satisfied, so she is a little arrogant. But from the point of view of getting along along the way, her arrogance is not too much, but her own. Not too annoying, but also to achieve her own purpose.
Entering the gate of the main house, the luxurious but unassuming decoration inside made Xu Xingxing slightly widen his eyes. The living room in the main house is very large, but the space is also large. It should be a place for dinner parties. There is no one around now, except for the beautiful ceiling and carpet, it looks empty.
Huaiwan dragged Xu Xingxing to continue walking. After walking through the long gallery, he entered another small living room from the steps. The so-called small, but only in relative terms. There are people in this living room, and the sunlight outside the window is projected on the ground through the shadows of the trees, making the small living room look warm.
As soon as they entered the door, a gray-haired woman on the sofa in the living room put down the white porcelain cup in her hand and looked over.
The woman looks about 60 years old, with short gray hair, tall and thin body, dignified manner, beautiful facial features, kind and gentle temperament. Seeing Huai Wan, the tenderness between his brows deepened, and the corners of his lips raised, holding a wrinkle or two.
Seeing her, Huai Wan also smiled obediently and called out.
"grandmother."
In IO, Xu Xingxing has heard a lot of gossip about the Huai family, most of which are groundless, but some are indeed true, such as the distribution of the Huai family.
The one on the sofa should be the actual ruler of the Huai Group, that is, Huai Jing's grandmother, Mrs. Mei.
"Hello, Madam." Xu Xingxing nodded respectfully at Mrs. Mei.
As soon as she spoke, Mrs. Mei noticed her. Glancing at Huai Wan, he was a little unsure.
"This isβ¦β¦"
"Ah, this is an employee of my brother's company, who sent documents to my brother, and was arrested by me to be my German teacher." Huaiwan introduced to Mrs. Mei. She was not nervous at all, as if she had made this work herself. There's nothing wrong with it, it's totally right.
After listening to Huai Wan's words, Mrs. Mei was not surprised. There are more things she does on weekdays than this, but discipline still has to be disciplined.
"Nonsense." Mrs. Mei said, "your brother should be mad at you."
That being said, after saying Huaiwan, Mrs. Mei looked at Xu Xingxing and said kindly, "Are you from IO?"
Xu Xingxing nodded, and replied without being humble or arrogant: "Yes, from the translation department. I will go to President Huai to send him materials, and then..."
She didn't say anything after that.
After listening to her words, Mrs. Mei sighed. After looking at Huaiwan, she turned around and said to Xu Xingxing: "You should be her German teacher first. She will not be in China for a long time, so it won't delay you too much effort. .As for remuneration, I will pay you according to the language teacher's hourly wage."
Xu Xingxing: "..."
Her lips parted slightly, but she didn't speak.
Mrs. Mei didn't blame Huaiwan for making a fool of herself, but helped her deal with it. She knew why Huaiwan was doing whatever she wanted.
After Mrs. Mei finished speaking, she smiled apologetically and said, "I forgot to ask if you would like it or not."
Looking up, Xu Xingxing smiled and said, "Yes, I will."
Mrs. Mei nodded and smiled more kindly.
Grandma helped settle things, and Huaiwan felt more at ease. She pulled Xu Xingxing and said as she walked, "Come on, go to my study, I just have a question I want to ask you."
After finishing speaking, said something to Mrs. Mei.
"Grandma, I'm going to study first."
Xu Xingxing followed Huaiwan to the study on the second floor. The room is too big. After going up the stairs, the study room on the second floor has to walk for a while. On the way, Huai Wan's cell phone rang. She took out her phone and pressed it to answer, then called "brother"
Xu Xingxing's eyes moved.
She never notified Huai Jing that she was coming to the mansion, because her mobile phone was in the bedroom, and it was not easy for Huai Wan to go up and get it when she was there. But Huai Wan was sincere and said everything straight to the point.
Huaiwan walked in front, and said as he walked, "I brought a translator from your company, and she brought you documents. Anyway, you have to go back to the mansion at noon, so I will ask her to teach me German first. Huh? Let her answer the phone? Oh."
Turning around, Huaiwan handed the phone to Xu Xingxing and said, "My brother asked you to answer the phone."
Xu Xingxing's throat moved, and he brought the phone over, his voice was very soft.
"Hey, Mr. Huai."
On the other end of the phone, the man's voice was flat, and he asked, "Where's the file?"
Looking down at the document that was stuffed into his hand by Huai Wan before leaving, Xu Xingxing pursed his lips and said, "It's here with me."
"Yeah." The man replied, turned over a page of documents, and said, "You teach Guan Wan at the mansion first, and I'll go back and get the documents later."
Hearing that he was coming over, Xu Xingxing felt that she could get away, and her nervousness was relieved a lot. She nodded and said, "Okay."
"Stupid or not?" The seriousness in the man's voice disappeared, with a little smile, he lowered his voice and said, "It was even taken away."
Xu Xingxing: "..."
She blushed when she was told, she clenched her phone tightly and looked up at Huaiwan carefully. Huai Wan was still leading the way, and didn't seem to care what the two of them said on the phone.
Xu Xingxing was about to lower his voice to refute Huaijing, but the call was hung up neatly.
Even if she was taken away by her sister, she had to be called stupid by her brother, and their Huai family was still unreasonable.
Xu Xingxing hung up the phone and gave the phone to Huaiwan.
Huaiwan took over the phone, looked at Xu Xingxing with a bad face, and asked, "Is my brother serious?"
Xu Xingxing raised his eyes.
When Huai Jing was working, she was really serious. However, the gap between the two positions is too great, and there is basically no intersection in work. It was a lot of time together on weekdays, but there was no serious shadow at all at that time.
"Yeah." Xu Xingxing responded and followed Huaiguan into the study.
This is actually a suite in Huaiwan. The suite has a bedroom, a kitchen, a dining room, and an entertainment room. It is more like a normal family home, but with a larger area.
The decoration of the entire suite is full of girlishness.
Xu Xingxing didn't observe much, Huaiwan pushed open the door of the study in the suite, and the two walked in.
Huaiwan's study is about the same size as the apartment where she lives now. The door is on the far left, and facing the door is the desk. To the right of the desk is a large window. The warm winter sun shines in, making the sofa under the window a lot warmer. Next to the sofa is a wall of bookshelves, and under the bookshelves is a light-colored carpet.
The decoration of the study tends to be quiet and simple, but there are also some exquisite girl-style designs. For example, on the carpet under the bookshelf, there are two puppet stools.
The stools are in the shape of animals, a zebra, a polar bear.
There are a few scattered books on the sofa, Xu Xingxing glanced at them, most of them were related to German. Huaiwan probably really wanted to learn German, that's why she was so serious.
Xu Xingxing also learned German because he likes small languages. Seeing Huaiwan also likes it so much, he unconsciously became friendly.
Huaiwan walked to the edge of the sofa and sat down with her long legs crossed. She picked up the book, smiled at Xu Xingxing, and said, "Sit next to me! I read a few pages today, and I didn't understand two things. I was going to pull my brother. I didn't expect to meet you, so I first brought you here."
Huai Wan smiled innocently and freshly, like a lotus flower that just emerged after the rain.
Fifteen is a clean and beautiful age.
"Okay." Xu Xingxing walked over, sat beside her, pulled the hair behind her ear, looked at the book and asked, "Where?"
When the woman lifted her hair, her fair and slender fingertips were gently inserted between the black hair, and with a simple movement, her soft side face was revealed. Under the sunlight outside, it is plated with a layer of gold. The woman's skin is delicate, her profile is pretty, her temperament is gentle, and she looks like a teacher.
Seeing her serious appearance, Huai Wan liked her even more in her heart.
After solving two problems for Huaiwan, it could be seen that Huaiwan was very happy. After marking with a pen, she said, "Thank you, teacher."
Xu Xingxing blushed slightly when she heard the word "teacher", she said embarrassedly, "Don't call me teacher."
But Huaiwan didn't seem to listen to her, and said with a smile: "Teacher, you are not the same as my brother. Every time I ask my brother a question, he makes me think for myself. I like you more, and you tell me everything. Come out. Come to me after you get off work!"
It is naturally impossible for Xu Xingxing to come to her place after get off work.
First, she doesn't like big houses, it's a bit empty and cool. Second, the relationship between her and Huai Jing is just friends, and the two cannot have deeper contact, especially each other's family.
Xu Xingxing didn't answer, she smiled and asked, "Did your brother teach you German?"
Huaiwan was successfully led away by her, nodded and said, "Yes, my brother's German is very good. He has been in Germany for a while and his spoken language is very good."
Huaijing's spoken language is really good. His voice is low, and he speaks German like a German, which is pleasant and pleasant to the ear.
Within twenty minutes, there was a sound of the door opening from outside the study. With the sound of the door opening, steady footsteps approached, and finally, the study door was opened.
In the study, the woman and the girl sat cross-legged together on the sofa by the window. The woman's black hair hangs down slightly on her shoulders, black and shiny, which makes her complexion fairer and more delicate. The contours of her facial features were illuminated by the sunlight, her eyelashes trembled slightly, her lips parted and closed, and she was talking to the girl earnestly from the side of her face. The girl on the side, with her arms stretched and her waist stretched, listened carefully with a happy smile on her face.
Two people, one soft and the other bright, just sat in the sun and talked quietly, like a painting, which makes people feel at ease.
Hearing the door opening, Xu Xingxing turned around first. The man outside the door stood tall, delicate and handsome, his light brown eyes drooped slightly, and his eyes looked at them lightly.
Xu Xingxing blushed, she put away her crossed legs, put the book in her hand aside, stood up, looked at him and called out softly.
"Boss Huai."
"Yeah." Huaijing responded lightly, looked over to Huaiwan, frowned and said, "I have already invited you to teach German, and I will come to class in the afternoon."
Seeing Huai Jing, Huai Wan also stood up from the sofa. She frowned at Xu Xingxing and said, "I like her."
The originally dark eyebrows softened slightly, Huaijing glanced at Xu Xingxing and asked Huaiwan.
"like her?"
Huai Wan nodded and said seriously, "Yeah."
There was a smile on the corner of the man's lips, he looked up at the two of them, and said, "She's not a teacher."
With that said, Huaijing put his eyes on Xu Xingxing and said lightly, "Excuse me, go downstairs."
Huaiwan knew her brother's character and knew how to bend and stretch at the right time. After hearing Huai Jing's words, although she was a little unhappy, she still reluctantly glanced at Xu Xingxing and said, "Thank you."
No matter how arrogant everyone is, the courtesy is still in place.
Xu Xingxing smiled, leaned over and picked up his jacket, and said, "You're welcome."
The three of them went out together. Huaiwan knew that the fact that Xu Xingkong couldn't teach her could not be changed, so she simply focused her attention on the new German teacher.
"New teacher male or female? Is she as gentle as she is?"
The "gentleness" in Huaiguan's mouth refers to Xu Xingxing.
"Not as good as her."
"What?" Huai Wan didn't hear.
Huaijing didn't repeat it, the doubtful Huaiwan and the blushing Xu Xingxing followed him downstairs.
As soon as went downstairs, heard the chatter in the living room.
In the living room, the two people who were talking looked up after hearing the voice upstairs. Besides Mrs. Mei, there was another middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was tall and straight, slightly chubby, with a peaceful face and a smile, and looked very approachable.
Seeing him, Huai Wan called out first.
"Second uncle."
Following Huai Wan, Huai Jing also let out a faint cry.
After Xu Xingxing nodded, he called out, "Dong Huai."
Since both Huai Wan and Huai Jing called him the second uncle, he should be Huai Changchao, the current chairman of the Huai Group.
Huai Changchao responded with a smile, and after seeing Xu Xingxing, he asked, "This is..."
"Huaijing's translator was hired by Wanwan to be a German teacher." Mrs. Mei said with a smile.
"Haha." Seeming to understand Huai Wan's style of doing things, Huai Changchao laughed twice and said in approval, "Yes, Guan Wan also knows how to use resources."
Huaiwan smiled embarrassedly, and Huaijing glanced at her, and said lightly, "It's just nonsense. I hired a German teacher for her, and now I'll take her back."
Mrs. Mei could see Huai Wan's love for Xu Xingxing and persuaded him.
"Let her do it, Guan Wan is happy. And if you are part-time, the language teacher's salary will be settled on a daily basis, and it will not be less."
"Well." Huai Changchao also nodded.
Looking up at the two elders, Huai Jing said in a deep voice, "Forget it, I have seen the employee performance appraisal. Her performance is average, and her ability should not be very good."
Xu Xingxing: "..."
After hearing this reason, Mrs. Mei and Huai Changchao agreed with Huai Jing's approach.
Seeing that the two of them didn't say anything else, Huai Jing turned around and said to Xu Xingxing, "I'm sorry, I wasted your time, I'll take you out for a taxi now."
Xu Xingxing nodded and said, "Thank you, President Huai."
Seeing the two walking out one after the other, Mrs. Mei got up and called out to Huai Jing, and asked, "Can you eat at the mansion at noon, Guan Guan is back."
After listening to Mrs. Mei's words, Huai Jing turned her head, glanced at Huai Wan, nodded and said, "Okay."
Huai Jing's answer made Mrs. Mei relieved. She laughed and said, "I'll let Mother He prepare."
After Xu Xingxing got into Huaijing's car, he was still a little gloomy.
She was "kidnapped" here inexplicably this morning. She didn't want to, but in the end she was sent away because of her low performance and said she was not competent enough.
Thinking of this, Xu Xingxing felt a little resentful. She sat in the passenger seat and muttered softly.
"It's because someone retaliated against me that my performance was so low."
The woman's voice was small, and although there were complaints in her words, it sounded more like she was talking to herself.
Hearing her words, Huai Jing glanced at her sideways. The woman lowered her head slightly and looked at her fingers, her fair face was a little red because she was unhappy, and her expression looked a little sad.
She tilted her head to look at her, Huai Jing raised her lips, and her voice was soft.
"What did you say?"
When her ears softened, Xu Xingxing looked up at him and saw the smile in the man's eyes. She remembered the last time she translated in front of him in Wencheng and was corrected by Yan Jialin.
Inexplicably a little guilty, Xu Xingxing lowered his head and whispered, "It's nothing."
Lightly licking his lower lip, the man's eyes were gentle and his smile deepened.
Huai Jing stayed with Huai Wan at home, and Xu Xingxing was free on weekends. She was at home with Mimi in her arms, and she took two professional textbooks to chew on when she had nothing to do. She wants to improve her business level and strive for good results in the mid-year performance appraisal. Don't let others feel that she is incompetent because of her performance.
Early on Monday morning, just after Xu Xingxing entered the office and punched in, he saw a bunch of people gathered around the bulletin board. Xu Xingxing entered with the crowd and saw something on the bulletin board, which seemed to be a performance table.
She had already seen her performance from Chen Wanwan, and Xu Xingxing didn't plan to continue watching it. Anyway, the results were no different. Just when she was about to turn around and leave, she was stopped by Chen Wanwan who came over.
Chen Wanwan's big eyes flashed, and she said to Xu Xingxing excitedly.
"Wow! Xu Xingkong, your performance is A+!"
Xu Xingxing was a little confused. She looked up and found her name from a pile of names. Seeing the performance behind, Xu Xingxing's eyes gradually widened.
Really A+!
