Chapter 116
Chapter 116
If I had known that Louie would be here, I would have chosen to leave. I would never work here, and I would not have made the situation so awkward at this moment, although it seemed that I was the only one who was embarrassed.
At this moment, I began to think about whether I should resign or not. "Should I leave here? Should I go in and tell the staff of the personnel department, and then take back the information, saying that I don't want to work here and that someone I don't want to see is here?"
"You don't want to escape, do you?"
Just as I was lost in my thoughts, Louie suddenly spoke.
"It seems that I haven't done anything that makes you hate me, right?" he asked.
I shook my head awkwardly. "No. We've only met a few times. How could there be anything I hate?"
"Then why do you look like you've seen a ghost?" he continued to ask.
As he kept asking, I stood where I was, not knowing how to start.
"It's not that I saw him look like he saw a ghost, but the things between us are a little complicated. In addition, I didn't want to have anything to do with him when I confronted Harrison at the gate of the community."
To be exact, it wasn't just Louie. Even Harrison didn't want to think about it anymore. He was ready to treat those memories as a dream. Anyway, it shouldn't be my life. It shouldn't be too difficult to forget. Who knew that he would meet Louie here at this time?
I'm afraid I can't eat well or sleep well in the same company as him.
I smiled and explained, "I didn't expect to meet you here. It's inevitable that I would be surprised."
"That's good. I'm worried that you won't be willing to come to work when you see me here."
Hearing this, I could only smile awkwardly and then said, "All jobs need to be compared. Even if I didn't come to work, it wouldn't be because of you. After all, people want to go high."
"You may say so." Louie looked at me and chuckled. "Probably there is no better treatment than this company."
I opened my mouth but didn't answer.
Although I didn't want to admit it, Louie was telling the truth. It was not easy to find a new education group in Luo City to be treated like this, let alone a person like me who had fallen out with Changqing. It was even more difficult to find a job.
There was work in the front and Louie in the back. I hesitated and didn't know what to do.
"It's almost time. I'll treat you to dinner." After that, Louie went to press the elevator button and went in.
I looked at Louie in the elevator and refused, "No, I'm afraid I'll..."
"You didn't want to eat with me, so you deliberately found an excuse?" He interrupted me and asked.
I didn't have anything else to say next. Sometimes, when I was in contact with someone, I had to be very clear about it. The reason why I refused him was that I didn't want to continue to get along with him. In this way, their faces wouldn't be too ugly. I believed that most people were like this.
But I didn't expect that Louie happened to be a person who didn't follow the rules. I said so, but he could still say that he couldn't pretend to treat me to dinner. I really didn't know whether he was pretending to be stupid or on purpose.
In the end, I, who was not good at refusing, finally agreed to have dinner together.
In the elevator, I began to analyze it. I had already completed the formalities in the company. If I said that I wouldn't come to work tomorrow, I would definitely be asked to break the contract and compensate for it. Now I certainly couldn't do such a thing. Besides, it was hard to find a job now. After thinking about it, I thought that it was the most reliable job here.
I carefully looked at Louie's side face. He looked gentle and kind, not like a smiling tiger. Thinking back, I had never offended him since I met him. He shouldn't bother me, right?
Even if what happened to Harrison last time was my personal relationship, as a man, Louie wouldn't gossip about it, would he?
Thinking of this, I gradually felt relieved...
I was eating at a western restaurant not far from the company. I looked back and forth as soon as I sat down and said in a low voice, "Actually, I don't eat in such a good place. It's normal."
He looked at me with a funny smile. "Do you see any small shops around the company?"
Thinking back on the way here just now, it seemed that there was no place to eat. I was stopped by him, so I had to shut my mouth and said nothing.
I'm not putting on an act. I just don't want to have too much to do with Louie. Even if I work in a company in the future, it's still very likely that I'm not in a department. But today I've invited me to have such a good meal. How can I not invite him back?
"If you ask me to come back, maybe there will be more contacts later. I will have a headache whenever I think of it."
"If you have time, I'll treat you to a meal. You can eat whatever you want," I said.
He chuckled. "I didn't ask you to come back."
"I just don't like to owe others," I replied.
The smile on the corner of Louie's mouth disappeared. He looked at me and whispered, "Are you treating everyone like this?"
"So who wouldn't be normal?" I said seriously, "If you don't owe others, your life will be more comfortable."
"Then you might be disappointed." He said helplessly.
I frowned. "What do you mean?"
"It seems that I have helped you a lot since we met, so you are destined to owe me."
Although it sounded uncomfortable, it was the truth. I was choked by him and couldn't say anything, so I simply lowered my head to play with the teacup and didn't look at him.
Soon, the waiter brought us the steak. We ate the steak and stopped talking.
When I was eating steak, I suddenly thought of Harrison. I remembered that not long after we met, he also brought me to eat steak. At that time, I couldn't enter the restaurant because of my clothes. If Harrison hadn't spoken to someone personally, I might not have been able to enter.
I really found it funny at that time. I didn't know anything and I liked to pretend to be strong.
If it weren't for Harrison, I wouldn't have held on until now. Maybe I would have disappeared with my mother when she left.
"There will be a meeting this afternoon. Are you ready?"
"You don't have to worry. I'll arrange it."
"How can you say that? You want..."
The familiar conversation attracted my attention. I looked up and saw two familiar people. Then I sneered and lowered my head, pretending not to see them.
It's not because I'm afraid of them. I just don't want to see them.
"What's wrong?" Louie asked worriedly.
I paused and realized that I was having dinner with Louie at the moment. I looked up and smiled at him. I said, "Nothing. I just remembered something." This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
"That's good. I thought it was a meal that didn't suit your appetite."
I shook my head. "Nope. Have some."
Eat up early and leave this place as soon as possible.
"Unfortunately, God didn't get my idea, because the two people who spoke were already sitting in the next seat next to me."
