"Edgar, morning."Emily, dressed in blue overalls, stood at the door and said hello to Edgar Austin, who had just arrived at the store. Apple face, good figure, new clothes, today she gives people a bright feeling.
Edgar Austin smiled and said, "It's early for you too. Are your clothes still suitable?"
"It's suitable."Emily turned around and smiled, "I'm just a little reluctant to wear it, hehe."
Edgar Austin said: "The work clothes are just for you to wear when working, why don't you wear them?"
When I walked into the store, I found that Emily had mopped the floor, wiped the desk, even the tools were placed neatly, and the equipment had been wiped. He felt a little inexplicably moved in his heart, thinking that she must have gotten up very early to work, right?
"Emily, let me teach you how to use the lathe."Edgar Austin said. He understood what Emily was thinking. She must have wanted more time to learn her craft, so she got up early in the morning to clean the store.
"Yeah!" Sure enough, Emily Xiaohong became excited when she heard that Edgar Austin was going to teach her how to use the lathe.
Edgar Austin opened the car window, fixed a piece of scrap material under the drill bit, and then asked Emily to operate, "This time we will process a nut." 1
"Yeah."Emily stood in front of the lathe very cooperatively, but didn't know where to start.
Edgar Austin stood behind her, held her hand, and taught her step by step how to operate.
The people who teach are very serious and the people who learn are very dedicated. During the time when she needed to get closer to observe the thread opening, Emily naturally leaned forward and raised her buttocks back, but she suddenly bumped into Edgar Austin who was standing behind her. An embarrassing touch happened like this. She seemed to have touched something she shouldn't have touched. Edgar Austin was also shocked and quickly backed away.
The touch was very sensitive, and both of their faces blushed slightly.
At this time, Kaiden Barlow walked in. He did not see the embarrassing scene, but saw the clean table. He said depressedly: "Emily, why did you... clean the table so early? Already?"
Watching Emily clean the table was a kind of entertainment and enjoyment for him in Lei Ma Studio. He couldn't enjoy it even if she wiped the table clean so early.
Emily chuckled, her laughter as clear as a silver bell.
A new day begins like this.
The work in the morning was very busy, and it was not until almost noon that the three of them had time to rest.
Lola Gellar drove to Lei Ma Studio, and when she saw Edgar Austin, she said, "Mr. Edgar, let's go."
Edgar Austin asked: "Where are you going?"
Lola Gellar said: "Have you forgotten what I told you? My uncle has time today. He called me and asked me to take you over so that you can meet and talk."
Edgar Austin patted his forehead lightly and said with a smile: "I have been so busy these days that I forgot about this matter. Just wait for me, I will change my clothes and follow you. I am dirty. , it’s rude to see your uncle.”
Lola Gellar smiled and said, "Well, I'll wait for you."
Edgar Austin wiped his face, washed his hands, and then went into the inner room to change clothes. There is no special place for changing clothes in Lei Ma Studio, so the back room where Emily lives becomes a place for changing clothes. Edgar Austin walked into the inner room and saw Emily's underwear of various colors hanging in the inner room. He suddenly remembered that accidental touch in the morning. The feeling happened just a minute ago, and it was still so clear and graceful. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I really need to find a woman. It's not good to be so sensitive."
After changing his clothes, Edgar Austin got into Lola Gellar's car, and Lola Gellar drove on the road.
"Miss Lola, what's your uncle's name?"Edgar Austin said, "I'm discussing business with your uncle. If I don't even know the person's name, it would seem insincere."
Lola Gellar smiled and said: "Mr. Edgar, are you so careful in everything you do?"
Edgar Austin smiled and said nothing.
Lola Gellar said: "His name is Asher Gellar, the chairman of Dongfeng Heavy Industries."
Edgar Austin was surprised when he heard this. He knew that Dongfeng Heavy Industry was a large state-owned enterprise with a market value of several billion. The boss of such a large state-owned enterprise approached a small technician from a street shop to discuss business. No one would believe it if he told him such a thing. However, he also knew very well that this was Lola Gellar helping him, otherwise Asher Gellar would not even be interested in seeing him, let alone discussing business.
"Thank you, I know you want to help me."Edgar Austin said.
Lola Gellar said: "Why are you being polite to me? My uncle is not the kind of big boss of a state-owned enterprise you think of. He is very easy-going, loves this country very much, and is a very upright person. He is indeed in difficulty now. And you are the one who can help him solve the problem, so of course he wants to see you. In fact, as soon as I said it, he agreed to see you. But you also know that people at his level are very busy and didn’t have time until today, so Just call and ask me to take you to see him."
Edgar Austin said: "I will try my best."
"Don't be modest. I know very well how powerful you are, and I have full confidence in you."Lola Gellar said, suddenly remembering something, and added: "One more thing, I went to the hospital for a check-up, and As you said, I really have gallstones. Fortunately, it was discovered early and no removal surgery is needed. I can't thank you enough for this."
Edgar Austin said with a smile: "I said we shouldn't thank you back and forth. Don't be so polite between friends."
Lola Gellar nodded, "Well, you're welcome between friends, haha."
Half an hour later, the car drove out of Haizhu City. Came to the seaside. In the distance, there are large cranes standing on the port, and shipbuilding factories where ships are being built, a busy scene. Lola Gellar drove the car into a dedicated driveway, and after driving forward for a few minutes, he saw a large factory standing on a piece of land by the sea.
After entering Dongfang Heavy Industries, Lola Gellar took Edgar Austin into a reception room, and then said to Edgar Austin, "I'm going to find my uncle. You wait for me here for a while."
Edgar Austin nodded, "Okay, you go ahead, I'll wait for you here."
After Lola Gellar left, Xia Edgar Austin looked around the reception room. He saw an ink painting on the wall of an eagle spreading its wings and overlooking the mountains. The name on the painting was Asher Gellar. From this painting alone, it is not difficult to tell that this reception room is a special reception room for Asher Gellar, and ordinary people cannot enter.
"I'm afraid this is for Lola Gellar's sake, right? This time I owe her a favor, and I don't know how to repay her,"Edgar Austin thought in his mind.
Then a woman walked in. The woman is very beautiful. She wears a black office attire, a white multi-sided shirt, and a pair of light-colored high heels. She is serious yet youthful and pretty. She was about the same age as Edgar Austin, but when he saw her face clearly, Edgar Austin suddenly froze.
This woman was no stranger to him. She was his classmate in high school, named Daleyza.
This Daleyza was the first woman he liked. He had a crush on her for a whole year, and finally plucked up the courage to write her a love letter. He will never forget it for the rest of his life. Daleyza read the love letter he wrote to her and left a sentence on it: I like boys like Nicky Wu. May I ask Classmate Edgar, are you that kind of boy?
Then, Daleyza posted the love letter she had "instructed" on the blackboard, making Edgar Austin the joke of the whole school.
It wouldn't matter if Daleyza threw the love letter directly into the wastebasket or even handed it to the teacher, but it hurt him if she left such a sentence and posted it on the blackboard. That year, his heart was broken. When he recognized her for the first time just now, this sentence echoed in his mind: I like boys like Nicky Wu. Excuse me, Classmate Edgar, are you that kind of boy?
The past events were blowing through his mind like the wind. It seemed calm on the surface, but Edgar Austin's heart could no longer be calm.
Their eyes met, and there was silence for a while. However, Daleyza broke the silence. She pretended to be surprised, "Oh, isn't this Edgar Austin? Why are you here?"
"I..." He wanted to say something but had no words. Edgar Austin suddenly felt a little funny. It had been several years since that incident, and he was still in the confusion of adolescence. Why was he still a little nervous when he saw her again? Woolen cloth?
"Are you here to apply for a job?"Daleyza asked tentatively.
Edgar Austin had calmed down and smiled, "Well, that's right. By the way, Daleyza, why are you here?"
A nice smile appeared on Daleyza's face, "I work here. I am now Chairman Ning's secretary."
"You did well, congratulations."Edgar Austin stood up and walked in front of Daleyza. He extended a hand to Chi Jingqiu.
Daleyza did not shake hands with Edgar Austin. She turned around deftly and went to put away the magazines on the coffee table. She said at the same time: "Edgar Austin, you can't stay here. This is Chairman Asher's exclusive reception room. Can you stay here?" The people who are received by Chairman Asher are distinguished people with status and status. If you come to apply, you should go to the office of the Human Resources Department. When you go out, turn left and walk about 20 meters."
Edgar Austin froze on the spot, his hands seemed to be frozen by frost and became very stiff. He put down his hand in embarrassment, but did not leave. He returned to the sofa.
Daleyza's little mouth curled up slightly, "Edgar Austin, you really can't stay here, you will make it difficult for me to do this."
Edgar Austin smiled and said, "Then don't do anything. Just treat me as if I don't exist. Also, please rest assured that me being here will not affect your work."
Daleyza was a little unhappy. She stared at Edgar Austin and said, "Classmate Xia, did you do this on purpose?"
"What did I do on purpose?"
"You came to cause trouble with me on purpose, right?"
Edgar Austin said with a smile: "You are overthinking. How is this possible? I don't even know you work here. How could I deliberately come here to cause trouble for you?"
Daleyza didn't believe Edgar Austin's explanation. She said, "I know you are still worried about that matter in your heart. I admit that there was something wrong with me, but we were still young and immature at that time. I rejected you for your own good. After that incident, didn’t you work hard to study, and even got admitted to Kyoto University, although you didn’t go to school.”
Edgar Austin originally stopped thinking about that past event, but she brought it up and said it in such a lofty manner that he couldn't help but frown.
Daleyza said again: "Okay, you go to the Human Resources Department. If you really can't find the Human Resources Department's office, I can take you there. You really can't stay here. If you are lucky enough to be admitted, I I can also arrange a more relaxed position for you. What I say here still has some weight. You are my classmate, and I will definitely take care of you."
"Thank you for your kindness."Edgar Austin said, "However, I am not here to apply for a job. I am here because your Chairman Asher asked me to meet."
Daleyza was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled again. She pointed at Edgar Austin, "You? Chairman Asher asked you to meet? Are you kidding me?"
