What Comes Around Goes Around - Chapter 86

The dinner ended in a warm atmosphere. It was the first time for several newcomers to come to team building, and some of them went abroad for the first time. Looking at everything in Japan, they felt fresh and interesting.

After Qian Heng arrived in Japan, he naturally chatted with Wu Jun and other partners about this year’s business and plans for next year. Young lawyers, assistant lawyers, and interns such as Cheng Yao gathered in another place. Talk about Dashan. Although it is not clear to say, there is still a natural distinction between the boss and the subordinates. Cheng Yao couldn’t hold back, she took a few glances at Qian Heng in the gap of small talk, but every time Qian Heng who was also watching her ran into her sight appropriately.

No one knows, but she is in love with Qian Heng. This feeling is really secret and beautiful.

When everyone finished the dinner and set off for the Gion Yarong Hall, Wu Jun and other partners naturally passed the rest of the group as the boss and led the team ahead, but Qian Heng deliberately slowed down.

He slowly fell behind and passed by Cheng Yao.

“Cheng Yao, has the previous property division agreement changed?”

Looking at the serious Qian Heng in front of him, Cheng Yao didn’t react a little: “Hey?”

When did you change your property division agreement recently?

Qian Heng tilted his head and lowered his voice: “Before entering the hall, find a reason to fall behind and go in with me.”

“Yep?”

Obviously he was talking about private matters, but Qian Heng’s face was still serious about business matters, so that the other colleagues who passed by would never imagine that he was not talking about business matters.

“There are no seats in the performance hall of the Gion Yaei Hall. You can enter directly if you have a ticket. If you have a seat, you can sit down. Come in with me and sit together.”

“Qian Heng, I’ve all traveled, why don’t you let Cheng Yao go and follow up?” Wu Jun, who was walking in the front, turned back and shouted to Qian Heng, “Come on and let go of your assistant lawyer. .”

Qian Heng glanced at Wu Jun, then looked at Cheng Yao twice, raised his voice, and warned in a serious manner: “After watching the show tonight, I can go back and work overtime for me. Traveling is traveling, and I can’t do the work I should do. fall.”

“…”

Cheng Yao watched Qian Heng finish, and another boss walked up to Wu Jun in style.

Qian Heng’s acting skills were too skillful, which caused his colleagues to express their deep sympathy for Cheng Yao’s misfortune.

Especially Bao Rui was very comforting: “Seeing that money par is so cruel to you, I feel relieved, I am not alone.”

“…”

Cheng Yao was really afraid that Bao Rui would perform a death on the spot when he knew the truth.

——

Qian Heng can have a serious face on his face, but his whispered words seem to spill a fire on Cheng Yao’s heart. Cheng Yao is carrying small throbs and excitement, and he must be careful not to let it out. People saw the clues, and on the way to the Gion Yaeong Hall, she could only endure and listened absently to her colleagues chatting.

And as Qian Heng said, the performance ticket of the Gion Yayoung Hall is not a designated seat. After entering the performance hall, you are free to sit down. Cheng Yao found an excuse to go to the toilet and deliberately separated from Tan Ying and others. Unfortunately, I ran into a European and American tourist group and was surrounded by these Europeans and Americans. Just as Cheng Yao was looking for Qian Heng anxiously, a hand stretched out from the crowd and held her firmly.

“Finally dumped Wu Jun and the others.” Qian Heng smiled softly, leaned over and kissed Chengyao’s ear, “Let’s go.”

Because of the cover of the European and American troupe, the two of them mixed in the crowd and entered the performance hall. Qian Heng led Cheng Yao all the way. The performance had already begun. Except for the stage lights in the hall, the surroundings were still empty. I sat down in the next seat.

I have to say that Bao Rui is telling the truth. Except for the kabuki performance at the beginning, the art of tea ceremony and ikebana, which requires calmness and appreciation, is really not suitable for performing on a large stage.

“Actually, what Bao Rui said is not wrong…” Cheng Yao felt a little sympathetic when thinking of Bao Rui working overtime in the hotel.

“Yes.” Qian Heng leaned close to Cheng Yao’s ear in a low voice, “I didn’t have a schedule tonight. I was going to let everyone have a good rest, but I thought about it and added this specially.”

The hot air of Qian’s constant temperature lingered in Cheng Yao’s ears. She only felt that her ears were a little hot: “Why?”

“You can hold hands with you like this.” Under the dim light, Qian Heng couldn’t see the expression on Qian Heng’s face, but the twist in his voice that wanted to express and be reserved again appeared. , He glanced at Cheng Yao, as if trying to restrain himself, but in the end, he couldn’t help but abandon himself, “I don’t want to do the second team building specifically for you. As a result, I didn’t even have the opportunity to hold hands with you. No. Then I asked all the money for the trip to be in vain? Didn’t I find so many big light bulbs for nothing?”

“Hey?”

“The temporary beach carnival amusement park in City B feels good.” Qian Heng lowered his gaze. “We will bring you out to meet the world and see Universal Studios in Osaka.”

Qian Heng cast aside his eyes and stared at the actor who was performing Kyogen on the stage for a while, as if Cheng Yao thought he did not want to continue this topic and was ready to watch the performance, she heard Qian Heng’s faint voice again—

“Everyone deliberately avoided the light bulbs in the house, and finally was able to be alone with me, don’t you have anything you want to do to me?”

Qian Heng’s voice is a little unnaturally reserved, but even if he wants to disguise and restrain, there are so many grievances and hints in it that he almost has subtitles on his face.

After the two held hands, their five fingers interlocked, and their hands never separated. Cheng Yao was a little shy, she subconsciously grasped Qian Heng’s hand tightly.

“moron.”

In the end, this move obviously did not please and satisfy Qian Heng. He glanced at Cheng Yao, “Why did I find such a dull girlfriend for Qian Heng?”

His expression was a little helpless, but it was more conniving. Before Cheng Yao could react, Qian Heng’s lips were covered.

The stage seemed to be performing to a climax, but Cheng Yao and Qian Heng both unintentionally watched it. The two got together and kissed under the cover of darkness and music.

Until the end of the performance, the temperature on Cheng Yao’s lips and face did not fade. In order to avoid suspicion, she deliberately separated from Qian Heng when she left, and the two returned to the indifferent mode of relationship between boss and subordinate. If it weren’t for Qian Heng’s face a little reddish, the two people’s faces would have no clues of the gorgeous style just now.

It’s just that this feeling that no one else knows, but loves each other, is like a secret rose blooming in the heart, belonging to each other only.

Mixed in with colleagues in the law firm, Qian Heng once again walked with Wu Jun and other partners on the return journey, and had no chance to say a word with Cheng Yao. It’s just that there is some love and care, those eyes following, that kind of tacit understanding ends, one action, one looking back, and there is no sound.

Some feelings need not be said.

Although she did not walk side by side with Qian Heng, Cheng Yao felt that her whole person was as calm and tender as she was surrounded by Qian Heng.

——

After returning to the hotel, some of my colleagues rested in the hotel, and some were still unfulfilled. They went to the nearby Kam Market for a late night snack, and some went directly to the drugstore to purchase.

Cheng Yao declined Tan Ying’s invitation to go to supper together. Qian Henggang met her with the family trust case, and Cheng Yao’s materials were half-read. The subject of this case is very large, and it also represents Qian Heng’s trust and affirmation that Cheng Yao must do everything well.

In the past, she still felt that as long as she worked hard during the eight hours of work, she would have a distinct leisure time when she was off work, and it would be okay to watch TV shows at night; then, she is clearly better than before, but she is aware of time. Precious.

If you want to be a lawyer as successful as Qian Heng, it takes a minute and you can’t wait to use it. Needless to think, at this time, Qian Heng must also be dealing with work affairs. If he is good and he is still working hard, then how can he be lazy?

It’s just that mental thinking is probably very energy intensive. After studying the materials attentively for an hour, Cheng Yao started to feel empty in his stomach. In the end, she couldn’t help being hungry and decided to go downstairs to the nearby 711 to buy some rice **** to cushion her belly.

The hotel staying this time has a small Japanese garden with an elegant environment. You must bypass this garden from the lobby to get to the main entrance of the hotel. The Japanese garden focuses on moving to different sceneries and creating a tranquil atmosphere full of Zen. Therefore, there are many stone scenes and trees and plants, and it feels like a winding path. This garden is not small, there are many branch roads, walking in it, it is very private, even if you can hear the whispers of others across the stone scene and tree scene, you will not see people, avoiding embarrassment and allowing the residents to have more Private experience.

In the evening, the hotel’s garden is quiet and the quaint Japanese stone lamp lights are dim and ambiguous, and everything is very quiet. Therefore, even very light sounds are amplified very clearly. Not long after Cheng Yao left, she heard a familiar voice behind Shi Jing beside her.

“Hey, I’m dead, I’m going bankrupt again this time. Why don’t you stop me? I said that I can’t calm down when I see the drug makeup…”

This voice is obviously Li Meng, a colleague in the institute.

Then Wang Lu said, “Forget it, didn’t everyone buy so much together? Bankruptcy together hahaha.”

“No, Cheng Yao didn’t come? Didn’t go with us shopaholics, and cleverly kept the wallet.”

As soon as Cheng Yao wanted to speak to the people at Jun Heng, she heard Li Meng speak again. However, this time, her tone was very subtle: “Cheng Yao? Cheng Yao is not the same as us women who only go shopping. Yes, won’t she stay in the hotel to read the case materials?”

Wang Lu was not clear, so she exclaimed: “She is so serious!”

Li Meng chuckled softly: “Don’t you think she is really looking at case materials in the hotel?”

“what?”

Li Meng came over and sighed earnestly: “Wang Lu, you are still young. If you spend a few years in the workplace like me, you will understand. With so many colleagues going out for supper and shopping, she said she wants to see the case and not go. , Think about it, does this leave a very deep impression on the big par in the institute? Think this newcomer is particularly sensible and motivated?”

“…”

“I used to be a state-owned enterprise legal officer and came to Junheng. These things have been seen in previous units. If you bury your head and work diligently, you may not be able to see it, but you have to be like Cheng Yao. Always express yourself, regardless of whether you really watch the case in the hotel at night, let the leader feel that you are watching, you are half of the success. In the end, it is these people who are going to get promoted quickly, those hard-working old The scalpers did not have a chance to get ahead.”

Wang Lu defended Cheng Yao: “Cheng Yao is not this kind of person, she is really serious. Before the team building plane took off, she was still burying her head in returning customer emails and calling customers back and forth. Several, for fear that I might not be able to contact them in time when I am abroad, I will first tell the customer about the situations and countermeasures that may be encountered in the case…”

Li Meng did not buy it: “Learn a little bit, you are still too simple. Do you know? Recently, Qianpar gave her a family trust case of 2.3 billion yuan, and asked her to do it. Qianpar is in charge. You Feel it.”

At this time, everyone couldn’t help but exclaimed enviously: “Wow! So happy!”

Li Meng said in a sour tone: “I came to Junheng six months earlier than Cheng Yao, and I specifically quit my easy and stable job as legal affairs in state-owned enterprises and came to Junheng. I am always diligent and diligent at work, but you see, I am still independent. There is no chance to operate a case, let alone a major case with a target of 2.3 billion yuan!”

Wang Lu comforted: “Sister Li Meng, don’t worry, your opportunity will definitely come soon.”

“It’s useless to be anxious. After all, I’m not as good-looking as Cheng Yao.” Li Meng sighed and lost his tone. “Young girls will come and look good, but they really take advantage. We ordinary people are a lot lucky.”

Wang Lu usually has a good relationship with Cheng Yao, she still wants to explain to Cheng Yao, but Li Meng’s interns who have just entered the institute are unknown, so Li Meng took them away to agree.

“Lawyer Cheng looks really beautiful, secretly speaking, when I first entered Junheng, she thought she was a celebrity and thought it belonged to our client. She was really good-looking, not like a lawyer. I’m so young. If I were a client, I wouldn’t worry about entrusting the case to Lawyer Cheng…”

Li Meng snorted, “She is very young, and only graduated with a bachelor’s degree. Our average degree is a master’s degree. Moreover, she has only a 211 degree, not a 985, and she has no great work experience, let alone. To learn, it stands to reason that we would never recruit someone with such a resume. As for why she was recruited, she was so lucky to be given the money par, and now she has received such a big case, think about it yourself .”

These new interns did not have much contact with Cheng Yao himself. They only knew that Li Meng took care of them as a senior, so they trusted Li Meng and accepted her point of view without any speculation.

“Could it be related to the household or something? Just like the family has a background?”

“I am so envious of becoming a lawyer. If I am half as good-looking as her, I will definitely be able to stay in Junheng after my internship.”

“If I want to be so good-looking, I am still a lawyer. I think being a lawyer is very hard.”

“Then you don’t understand, we at Junheng heard that the clients we receive are all rich and noble, top social class, and attorney Cheng may have a relationship with a client someday, and he will directly change from a colleague to our client. My elder sister is in Dulwich Law Firm. Before they had a female lawyer, she looked very good, and she would have troubles. Finally, she married a wealthy client and successfully married into a wealthy family. She also had a family trust under her name. As soon as he turned into an important client who had to catch up and serve him well.”

“…”

This group of people was chatting with gossip about the sky. After a while, the topic changed from Cheng Yao to shopping and celebrities, and then they drifted away from Cheng Yao.

The topic of Cheng Yao may be just a very insignificant episode among their many topics, but Cheng Yao, as the topic himself, could hardly be calm after Li Meng and the others left.

Until this moment, Cheng Yao was deeply aware of what Qian Heng said.

People’s minds are too complicated. No matter how good the atmosphere is at a law firm, no matter how harmonious colleagues, they still can’t stop people’s nature. Once in the same period or even younger generations have faster and better development than you, it is always difficult for people to suppress some injustice and complex emotions.

Few people can calmly accept reality, or calm down to see if the other person really has better qualities than themselves. Li Meng’s reaction was almost the first reaction of many people subconsciously. They cannot accept that newcomers with insufficient qualifications and insufficient experience can really catch up with themselves in a short period of time. They cannot find problems and comparisons from themselves in the first place. Instead, they subconsciously attack each other’s weaknesses and question the other’s abilities. Gain self-comfort and satisfaction.

Cheng Yao had to admit that it was an extremely correct decision not to disclose the relationship with Qian Heng in the law firm. She didn’t think much about it before, but now she realized that office romances, especially those of superiors and subordinates, are indeed delicate and very dangerous.

If Li Meng and others knew about their relationship with Qian Heng, what would they think? It is almost predictable.

——

Cheng Yao bought the rice ball with a heavy heart, but after eating, she was not in the mood to look at the case again. She couldn’t help but made a voice call to Qin Qin.

As a veteran of the workplace, Qin Qin is not surprised by this kind of development: “The office romance is like this. Unless you finally achieve a positive result, once you break up, even if you two break up, you can still be friends. Other colleagues will get along with you. It feels subtle.” She sighed, “Of course, I hope you will succeed in love and be beautiful once, but you should also be careful. Even if you two do not break up, it is impossible for you to fall in love with your boss for a lifetime. Keep it from your colleague. When you are discovered, your situation will be more delicate.”

Cheng Yao bit her lip and said nothing.

“You didn’t break up, it’s a good thing emotionally; in terms of career, it has no effect on your boss, but for you, it’s not like that. All your achievements in the workplace, your hard work , Your abilities, the time you stayed up all night, the sadness and hardship you experienced, will all be ignored. It is very likely that your identity will no longer be’outstanding young lawyer Cheng Yao’, but will be labeled as’Famous Lawyer Qian Heng Girlfriend Cheng “Yao’ label.” Qin Qin paused, “I am your friend. Of course, I know how much you have contributed to this step, but more people don’t know you and don’t understand you. More and more people feel that your future achievements are all because of your boss behind you. In the workplace, it will become more and more difficult to prove yourself because of this relationship…”

“Qin Qin, will this really become like this…”

Qin Qin sighed and reduced his emotions: “Really, don’t ask me why I know so deeply. Because this is what I have experienced.”

Cheng Yao was touched. She vaguely knew that Qin Qin was hurt in the last relationship. She was not in PR and marketing. Her previous job was related to finance. When she had a bright future, she chose to resign, completely bid farewell to the financial industry, and entered In the field of public relations.

“Thank you for telling me.”

“Hey, why do you say thank you between friends?” Qin Qin’s voice was a bit vicissitudes of life. “You asked me why I resigned. I never told you. Now I can say it because I want to get out of his label and I want others Everyone knows that all the achievements Qin Qin made are my own efforts. Without that man, I could still do well in a completely different field.”

“It’s just a pity that I was too young at that time. I wanted to break away from his reputation and protection. I was too strong. I kept wanting to prove myself, but I didn’t think about his feelings, which eventually exhausted the two people’s feelings. “Even though Qin Qin’s relationship was half a year ago, she still cannot help but sigh now, “I said it, I hope you don’t repeat my mistakes, fall in love with your boss, and balance. Having a good relationship and career is really not easy, Yaoyao.”

Cheng Yao knew that she could not always rely on Qian Heng. Naturally, these delicate colleagues and interpersonal relationships could not talk to Qian Heng, because once they talked about it, Qian Heng came to defend herself, and it proved that everything she did was worshipping money. Has Heng bestowed this?

“Qin Qin, do you think I have to be as strong and outstanding as Qian Heng? When I finally open my relationship, no one will say that I am dependent on him?”

“Well, if you are also a female partner, find him to fall in love. Of course, people say that you are a strong alliance. But now you are a little lawyer or his subordinate. What others say is subtle.”

After hanging up Qin Qin’s call, Cheng Yao’s heart was even more mixed.

Whether for myself or for Qian Heng, it seems that I must work harder.
