Chapter 5 Direct Assignment to the Frontier

  Although an accident occurred, Ning Meng didn't worry about being fired at all, because the perpetrator was Guan Xuan.

  The first day back at work after the holiday, Zhou Dongni saw her and smiled brightly as she came over.

  "Ning Meng, come down to my office and let's have a chat."

  She calmly followed him in. From a young age, her mother had taught her that whether you stick your head out or hide it, you'll still get hurt, so she was exceptionally brave from childhood. She would climb walls and trees with a group of boys to dig up bird nests, and by the time she reached second grade, she had already become quite notorious. Once, under the influence of some fermented vegetables, she publicly flirted with her desk mate, a young boy, and when he wasn't paying attention, she quickly gave him two loud smacks on the cheek, which scared him to tears. His parents came to school to complain, and when she got home, her mother scolded her severely. In reality, her bravery was like her stomach - once it expanded, it could never shrink back down again.

  "Ning Meng, are you feeling better? If not, it's okay to rest for a few more days." Zhou Dongni's rare gentleness that only appeared once in a hundred years.

  Ning Meng's whole body trembled. Wasn't it scary? A woman nicknamed "Freeze", whose words could freeze into ice, suddenly changed to a gentle tone that was almost dripping with water, really not used to it.

  "There's no problem anymore, I can go to work normally." She almost patted her chest to show her loyalty, "Director, whatever you have in mind, just let me know and I'll make sure to complete it with effort."

  "No rush, let's chat first, you're new here and I haven't shown enough concern for you."

  She held Ning Meng's hand affectionately for a while, then asked mysteriously, "Ning Meng, do you have a special connection with one of the company's leaders?"

  This thing is muddled and confused, but it's possible that the warmth of the sun will shine on her, however she has always been unlucky.

  "Director Zhou, the thing is, I was hit by a car on the road and my foot was seriously injured. The driver felt guilty and not only sent me to the hospital but also wanted to help me ask for leave, saying he had some connections." Ning Meng smiled without a care in the world.

  Zhou Dongni looked at her suspiciously, "What's the car owner's name? Is there any contact?"

  He paid the medical expenses and left, never to be seen again. By the way, his surname is Zhu, and his name is Zhu Wuneng.

  Zhou Dongni furrowed her brow, "A very familiar name......just can't think of who it is?"

  Ning Meng felt secretly pleased in his heart. Think about it, think about it, if you can figure it out, I'll change my surname to Zhu along with you.

  After a while, the beauty finally lost her patience, and with a frown, "Ning Meng, why are you so stupid? When someone has money and power, can't you at least leave a phone number or something? If your foot gets hurt again in the future, you can still get them to pay some compensation. You don't even understand this, it's obvious you're a silly girl. Some people just can't be taught."

  Ning Meng nodded silently, watching as she walked away with her five-inch high heels and swaying hips disappearing from view.

  In another week, the office will ask each department to recommend personnel on the grounds of insufficient staff.

  To put it nicely, it's communication training, but in reality, it's just doing chores. Similarly, as newcomers, Meilin and Ningmeng were inevitably listed among the recommended candidates, and Zhou Dongni made a ruthless cut, with Ningmeng being eliminated from the list.

  Ning Meng moved a small trunk and sorted out some things. A slender figure walked towards her, it was Mei Lin.

  Meilin is the flower of C University's Foreign Language Department, elegant and refined, familiar with four foreign languages, and eloquent. She can effortlessly hold court in the campus, a true gem. As the saying goes, "a virtuous woman is hard to find", but according to unreliable sources, her admirers could line up from the front gate all the way to the back hill park. It's clear that Meilin has already won over the hearts of the older generation, who praise this girl for being enthusiastic and studious, a rare talent. Meanwhile, she is completely ignored, not to mention having just been granted a long vacation.

  Mei Lin walked up to her and said, "Ning Meng, do you want me to help with the arrangement?"

  Although Ning Meng was a bit depressed, she still had some elegance as a lady, "No need... there's nothing to tidy up."

  Meilin sighed and said, "You see, we're from the same department, so we should rise and fall together. At that time when Lao Da was seeking opinions, I volunteered to rotate posts, but she said I was already familiar with the business..."

  Ning Meng smiled wryly, "You've always performed well, it's only right that you stay. I'm the one who's inferior. Anyway, I'm just a weed, a worthless life, what difference does it make where I go?"

  Marlene patted her shoulder and comforted, "Don't be discouraged. The office is also a good place to temper oneself..."

  It's indeed a good exercise for people, doing chores generally requires a good physique and physical strength. Ning Meng thought that compared to Mei Lin, this kind of big sister who doesn't even touch onion water with her ten fingers, she was more suitable for it anyway.

  The day she reported to the office, Leng Mei personally took her there. A middle-aged man walked towards them, with a slightly protruding belly and a small patch of brightness on his forehead, and without looking, you could tell he was a highly intelligent person.

  "Xiao Ning, this is Director Huang Shi Ren from the office, say hello."

  "Hello, Director Huang." Ning Meng revealed a sweet smile, secretly worrying in her heart. She had just left the Frozen Nest, only to fall into the landlord's house. What kind of world is this...

  Huang Shiran patted her shoulder, laughing with a warm and intimate smile, "Xiao Ning looks smart and clever at first glance, remember to work hard and be willing to contribute in the future...". This guy's words were indeed brilliant and lengthy. But it's not like that, this long string can really be done, when you become a "May Day Labor Model" you'll be qualified...... It's really flattering.

  A week later, she finally understood the true connotation of "a dagger hidden behind a smile". They say that Vaseline is very useful, but she thought she was even more useful than that.

  In short, no one wants to write the material, she has to draft it; there is no errand to run, she has to rush around; no one wants to hold a meeting, she has to take charge... Sometimes she wonders what's the use of all those years learning English and French? In the office, the most important thing is physical health, being able to withstand the fast pace, having agile hands and feet, being extremely meticulous, especially when facing "Huang Shiren" who loves to pick on trivial matters.

  In fact, awarding May Day labor model also made her lose money.

  Every day, Ningmeng returns home with two legs that are sore from standing, washes up and goes to bed, the next day the alarm clock rings three or four times before he struggles to put on his clothes, five minutes later rushes out of the house, squeezes onto a crowded bus, surrounded by all sorts of smells, nibbling on steamed buns with milk.
