Tang Xiaotong was forced to have no choice but to have the courage to ask for Xu Bo'an's favor. After all, she had owed Xu Bo'an a favor before, so it took a lot of courage to open her mouth.
In fact, Tang Xiaotong did not have to ask Xu Bo'an for help. After all, these days, there are really numerous and countless types of loans.
No matter what well-known software it is, it seems that it is engaged in the loan business. Even navigation and short videos have begun to get involved in the loan business.
Moreover, Tang Xiaotong also has some friends, even people she has helped by doing good deeds and good deeds.
However, there is a saying that goes well, people who have helped you will always help you, but those who have helped you may not!
Xu Bo'an not only helped Tang Xiaotong, but also had the ability.
Tang Xiaotong's friends are mostly classmates or suitors in school. They either have just started working and have no ability, or their goals are impure.
Now, looking for Xu Bo'an has become the best choice.
People say that if there are too many lice, they won't bite you, and if there are too many debts, they won't bite you. This phenomenon is called "adaptation" or "habituation" in psychology.
In fact, the same is true for kindness. When someone is very kind to you, or has a lot of favors, you will most likely not want to trouble others anymore.
Instead of owing favors to many people, it is better to repay this one person well.
Tang Xiaotong thought about it over and over before she approached Xu Boyan and said these words.
Because there was no precedent for withdrawing wages in advance, Tang Xiaotong was still a little uneasy and even prepared to be rejected.
Anyway, I owe Xu Boan a lot of favors, so it would not be a shame to be rejected by him!
This mentality is very shameless, but very real!
Because he was mentally prepared to be rejected, after seeing Xu Bo'an's embarrassed expression, before Xu Bo'an could speak, Tang Xiaotong hurriedly said: "Mr. Xu, this... this thing really makes you laugh,
I... I really have no other choice, so I just asked you. I know that it is outrageous to advance two years' salary. So, can you just advance this year's salary? Should I think of other ways? Do you think this is okay? ”
To prove that what he said was true, he took out a medical record issued by the hospital from his pocket and handed it to Xu Boan.
Xu Bo'an looked at the medical record and said with a smile: "You have been struggling for a long time, but it turns out that you are just in urgent need of money. Since money can save lives, it couldn't be easier. What big deal do I think it is?"
Tang Xiaotong was overjoyed when she heard Xu Boan's words. Could it be that Mr. Xu agreed?
So she looked incredibly happy and said, "Mr. Xu, are you agreeing?"
Xu Boan shook his head and explained: "You also know that there has never been any precedent for advancing wages in our company. This is not an easy opening. Once it is opened, if all the workers come to advance wages, the company will It’s hard to do.”
Tang Xiaotong knew that Xu Bo'an was right. The company had to be run. If he advanced his salary and others followed suit, it would be difficult to control.
Agreed, the company's cash flow is being squeezed out, which is very costly and may lead to bankruptcy.
Don't agree, why should I give you an advance from Mr. Xu's beautiful secretary? This will have a very bad impact.
After hearing Mr. Xu's words, Tang Xiaotong's face tightened, and then the expression on his face darkened again.
Xu Boan changed the subject and said with a smile: "Although the company cannot give you this money in the form of salary advance, as your leader, I should find a way to solve the difficulties of my subordinates. In this case, this money I can personally pay for it for you.”
When Tang Xiaotong heard that Mr. Xu was actually willing to help her advance the money, she subconsciously thought that once the money was collected, her mother's surgery could be carried out. She was immediately happy, but then she thought about it.
Why is the leader willing to lend money to a person who is not a relative or an acquaintance of his own money? At this moment, Tang Xiaotong suddenly started thinking wildly. Could it be that Mr. Xu had other plans for him?
After all, I watch TV dramas in my spare time and the short dramas that have become popular recently have such scenes. While thinking wildly, he unconsciously tightened the tight clothes he was wearing.
Then I thought, no matter what, as long as I can get the money, I can cure my mother's disease, no matter how much I pay, it will be worth it.
Taking a step back, Mr. Xu, apart from being a little older than me, still has a very strong personal charm. Especially during this period of contact, I have come to admire my immediate boss more and more. Thinking about it this way, even if I commit myself to him He is not at a disadvantage either. Thinking of this, Tang Xiaotong relaxed her tense body again.
To Xu Bo'an, the money was just a drop in the bucket, but to Tang Xiaotong at this moment, it was a big number, so he couldn't help but have such random thoughts in his heart.
Seeing Tang Xiaotong's little movements, Xu Bo'an could of course guess nine out of ten of her inner thoughts at the moment. I originally wanted to wave my hand and say that I don’t need to pay back the money, but I thought I would just treat it as my own charity.
But Xu Bo'an, who was not short of money, was also worried that his generosity would cause misunderstandings among female employees. He immediately interrupted her train of thought and said with a smile: "This is not pie in the sky. This money will be needed by you in the future." You can pay it back, but don’t worry, you can pay it back when you have saved enough. I’m not in a hurry to use it yet. Send me your card number and I’ll transfer it to you now.”
Tang Xiaotong was a little confused after hearing Xu Boan's words, but she still obediently sent her bank card number. After a while, she heard a "ding" from her phone. When she opened the message, she saw that 200,000 yuan had arrived.
Seeing the extra number in the bank card, which was a full 50,000 yuan more than the number he said, Tang Xiaotong was so excited that he bowed and said with tears of gratitude: "Thank you so much." In short, this money is a life-saving straw for my mother and I. You are a great benefactor to our family. I will always remember your kindness. "
Giving help in times of need and icing on the cake are two completely different concepts. "Sending help in times of need" is to lend a helping hand when others need help most. It is a rare kind of true love and assistance.
The "icing on the cake" is to add another good thing to a very good situation. Although it is also a positive move, the degree and significance of help are far less profound than providing help in times of need.
At this moment, for Tang Xiaotong, Xu Bo'an was the one who helped him in times of need.
Only now did Tang Xiaotong realize that she had thought too much. Mr. Xu laughed just now, not because the request he made was too outrageous. In fact, in Mr. Xu's eyes, hundreds of thousands of dollars was just a small number that couldn't be smaller.
It was because I was pedantic that I thought of Mr. Xu like that. Mr. Xu really wanted to help me and was not the messed up person I thought he was. Comparing this before and after, Tang Xiaotong felt that Xu Boan's character was like a towering mountain, which was amazing. I am even more determined in my heart, "I will only follow the leader's lead"!
At this moment, Tang Xiaotong was feeling very strange. On the one hand, she regretted that she had just distorted Mr. Xu's character.
On the one hand, I couldn't help but mutter in my heart, what's the matter, is it because I'm not good-looking and not attractive enough? Why does Mr. Xu want to draw a clear line with me so much? You must know that when I was in school, I was considered a golden flower in the college. When I walked on the street, I had the opportunity of being approached by a talent scout.
Why can't I get Mr. Xu's attention?
Xu Bo'an said: "You don't have to be so polite. Every family has difficult times to recite. In times of difficulty, we need to lend a helping hand. Besides, the fragrance of roses given to others is lingering. I am also very happy to be able to help your mother. You can help your mother these days." Rest.”
Tang Xiaotong was even more moved when she heard this. You must know that she had just started working for a few days and had just taken a long vacation before. Now Mr. Xu was so generous in allowing herself to rest.
Is there such a good boss in the world?
I lent you money, don’t be in a hurry to pay it back!
And let you take a vacation, a long vacation!
Take a long vacation?
Thinking of this, Tang Xiaotong panicked.
That's not right. I have only been working for less than a year, which does not meet the standard of annual leave. Although personal leave and sick leave are arranged in a humane manner within the company, I will not be too harsh, but three or five days is fine, but it is a long time. It's not that simple, right?
If Mr. Xu does this, he won’t fire himself! In other words, I need to change myself and let myself take up the project!
My position is Xu Bo'an's secretary, but now I am always on vacation. Isn't it a bit out of place?
Tang Xiaotong said hurriedly: "Mr. Xu, this is inappropriate. I am your secretary. You are working here. How can I always take a vacation? There is nothing at the hospital. My sister and I will take turns taking care of you. No. It affects work too much.”
Xu Boyan laughed inwardly and thought to himself, "I'm not even planning to continue working. I'm going to apply for internal retirement or sick retirement. Why do I care about the existence of a secretary?"
But of course, Xu Bo'an would not tell Tang Xiaotong about this matter. Her relationship with Xu Bo'an was far inferior to that between Tang Xiaohu and Xu Bo'an, and it was not yet to the point where Xu Bo'an could safely tell her this secret.
After all, if this kind of secret is spread, it will bring turmoil to the company, so Xu Boan will not leak it casually.
Xu Boan immediately waved his hand and said: "It's okay, the earth will continue to turn around regardless of who you leave. The company is the same, but the family is different. You should take care of your mother first. Don't worry about the company's affairs."
Even if everyone leaves the company, the company will still move on?
Tang Xiaotong's heart pounded when she heard this. Does this imply that she is really ready to resign?
You won’t even be given the opportunity to be devolved!
This job is very important to me, so you must not lose it.
Tang Xiaotong said hurriedly: "Mr. Xu, you really don't need to take a vacation. I can keep busy. Don't worry."
Seeing that Tang Xiaotong was questioning this, Xu Bo'an nodded and said, "Okay, you can make your own decision. If you want to ask for leave, just ask for it at any time."
Seeing Xu Bo'an say these words so easily, Tang Xiaotong was a little confused for a moment.
Mr. Xu doesn't seem dissatisfied with himself. Is he really overthinking?
But...
Forget it, no matter what, if someone treats you well, you must remember to repay the favor.
Tang Xiaotong said firmly: "If Mr. Xu has anything to do in the future, just give him your orders, and I will definitely look after you."
Xu Bo'an smiled and waved his hand and said: "With your momentum, you are a bit like a strong woman marching to fight. Contemporary Hua Mulan, okay, don't think too much, just work hard, we can work together It’s fate, and we should help each other.”
Xu Bo'an had a habit of taking a lunch break. It was already past one o'clock at noon. While talking, Xu Bo'an started to yawn one after another.
Tang Xiaotong saw this and said quickly: "Mr. Xu, I will definitely pay you back the money as soon as possible, so I won't disturb you anymore. You can rest quickly. After that, he wrote an IOU to Uncle Xu for safekeeping." On the desk, and then turned around and walked out."
Xu Bo'an picked up the IOU and looked at it, thinking that he had never thought about her paying back the money. From his point of view, he was just doing a charity. After all, he didn't care about this little money. People have money. After that, I love to do good things.
But seeing Tang Xiaotong's reserved look at the time, he was afraid that she would think too much before saying she wanted to pay it back. However, even if Xu Bo'an said that there was no need to pay back the money, Tang Xiaotong would never do that based on his character.
Therefore, it was of no use to Xu Bo'an to keep this IOU. For the wealthy man, he immediately crumpled the IOU into a ball and threw it into the trash can before walking towards the lounge inside.
Today is cloudy, which is the perfect weather for sleeping. There is nothing going on in the workplace in the afternoon, so Xu Boan just sleeps until mid-afternoon.
Still woken up by the ringing of the phone, Xu Bo'an answered the phone in a daze, and heard a burst of hearty laughter from the other end of the phone. This burst of laughter made Xu Bo'an completely awake in his sleep. .
Xu Bo'an sat up and listened to the other end of the phone continue to say: "Hello, I am Qu Feifan of Jiangcheng Qu Group. You are the racing master I saw last time. Your driving skills are really great. , I was shocked by your speed at that time,
I've been wanting to find you, and I finally found you today. You're really a master at hiding things, how do you think? Are you interested in chatting about racing or having a friendly match? "
After Qu Feifan and Zhong Huan's group finished their meal and watched Zhong Huan and the others leave, he got into the car. When he took out his mobile phone, he saw the missed calls on his mobile phone and the message that Vice Minister Zhou sent to him. .
When he saw that it was the man who looked like a car god from Qiu Mingshan, he was so excited that he immediately called Xu Boan in the car.
Xu Bo'an said calmly: "Hello, Mr. Qu, I'm afraid I have to say sorry."
When Qu Feifan heard this, he immediately frowned and said, "Don't worry, I won't use you in vain. I will give you a large sum of money as reward."
Xu Bo'an explained: "This is not about money. Don't get me wrong. I have to tell you clearly about this in advance. In fact, I am not good at driving. I went up the mountain last time because I had something urgent, so I subconsciously drove a little." It’s so fast. It makes me drive very smoothly.”
Qu Feifan was dumbfounded when he heard this. What the hell is this? The expert he had worked so hard to find turned out to be a parallel import after a long time!
This is a bit hard to accept! (End of chapter)
