Chapter Fourteen: Cheng Zong, I love you so much!
Yang YiPeng shook his head. Then he went to his desk and sat down, opening the drawer and taking out a stack of documents to put on the surface. He motioned Ji XiaoYu over."Come and sign the contract."
Ji XiaoYu immediately wagged his tail and ran over happily.
Liang ShaoGang saw what was happening and said, "Captain, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."
Yang YiPeng said, "Wait a little bit. Xiao Liang, doesn't the suite you and Xiao Liu live in still have an empty room? Just let Ji XiaoYu live there. After he signs the contract in a minute, you can take him over."
"Okay, then I'll wait outside." Liang ShaoGang left the office when he finished speaking.
Ji XiaoYu took the document that Yang YiPeng had handed over and looked at it. It was a thick stack of paper and the cover had the words "HongSheng Building Security Department Employment Agreement" written on it. He couldn't help but ask, "Where do you need the signature?"
"Here, here, and also here." Yang YiPeng turned to a few places and pointed them out to him.
Without speaking, Ji XiaoYu picked up the pen to sign his name.
Yang YiPeng: "....... aren't you going to look at the contract first?"
This kid is so assured, he's not afraid of sold out by others.
Ji XiaoYu: "No, I believe in the captain and Cheng Zong!"
Anyway, he can't understand the complicated clauses. It would take a lot of looks just to read all the words in it.
"Your contract was written according to Cheng Zong's instructions. It had nothing to do with me." Yang YiPeng shrugged, clearing himself of responsibility, "In addition, the salaries of all our employees, including the security guards, are confidential. Don't go out and shout about yours, or else you'll be responsible for any problems."
In fact, Cheng YuTang had offered Ji XiaoYu a pretty good deal. The average monthly salary of a new security guard for HongSheng was only 3000 yuan. There will be different levels of salary increases at the end of each year according to performance and merit. For example, Liang ShaoGang, who had been doing this for more than three years, had been performing well and had earned several merits. But this year, his salary had only just risen to 4500 yuan, while Ji XiaoYu had just arrived and was getting this same value. If this got out, it would definitely cause a huge psychological imbalance among many people; one could imagine that nothing good would come from it.
He had already reminded him of this stipulation according to the entry process. If this kid didn't know to act properly and not get into trouble, then he couldn't blame Yang YiPeng for it.
"Yes, I understand!" Ji XiaoYu answered.
He already understood this point. It had also been stipulated at the XinHao Hotel previously, to prevent unnecessary conflicts between employees through their comparisons.
Yang YiPeng looked Ji XiaoYu up and down again. He thought that this kid had good skin, a slender waist, and long legs, as if he had been blessed by heaven to look good in any clothes. It would be good to use him as a model to be the face of the company. It would definitely be a more promising future than being a security guard.
While thinking, he pulled two sets of security uniform out of the cupboard and threw them into Ji XiaoYu's arms, saying, "You should go to the dormitory with Xiao Liang first. During this National Day holiday, study the rules and regulations of the company and our security department. Learn what the job is and what the process of building security is all about. Wait until after the holidays before your first official shift."
"Okay, thank you captain!"
Ji XiaoYu held his uniform and smiled, And free new clothes to wear, how awesome!
He had come to Ning City with the few pieces of clothing he had bought at a Xing Cheng Night Market stall last year and they had seen a lot of wear after all this time. Previously, Zhang QiaoYan also urged him to buy a few new ones, feeling too sorry over his appearance, but he hadn't been willing to buy anything. He had planned to take the new job and consider it again. So, this was good, he could save a lot of money and buy a can of milk powder for the chick.
Yang YiPeng couldn't bear to watch him laughing like a sunflower, not like a security guard at all. He waved his hand like shooing a fly, "Alright, alright, go on."
Ji XiaoYu left the office happily with his new clothes in-hand. He smiled at Liang ShaoGang, who had been crouching outside in the hallway, "Liang Ge, from now on, we're colleagues. Please take care of me in the future!"
Infected by his bright smile, Liang ShaoGang, who always had a paralyzed face, couldn't help the tilting of the corners of his mouth, but he didn't reply. He just patted Ji XiaoYu's shoulder and agreed. Then, he asked, "Xiao Yu, do you know HongLe Garden?"
Ji XiaoYu scratched his head, "Where's that?"
He had been in Ning City for three months, but the scope of his activities was limited to the area surrounding Screw Street. There had been no time to go any further away.
"It's a welfare housing community built by HongSheng for their employees. There's a building in there that has been transformed into a special staff dormitory." Liang ShaoGang said, "If you don't know, just come back with me. I'll take you to learn the road. It'll take about thirty to forty minutes, can you come?"
"No problem!" Ji XiaoYu thought in his heart that HongSheng was really rich, there's a special staff dormitory, this really is the right place.
So Ji XiaoYu followed Liang ShaoGang and walked down the street. They walked down a few small streets and through a small park. After nearly forty minutes, they arrived at a community that was a little old but had a good environment. There were all kinds of shops outside and the road was tree-lined for shade.
Liang ShaoGang greeted the doorman and, while walking in, explained, "This is the HongLe Garden. I live in a three-bedroom suite with Liu WeiRen, so there's an empty room for you to live in. The nature of our security guards is different from that of our general staff, usually we can go to the HongSheng Building staff canteen for three meals a day. If you're not too lazy on rest days, you can go to the neighborhood outside for restaurants, order delivery, or buy your own ingredients to cook something simple in the dorm."
"Got it!" Ji XiaoYu nodded over and over, thinking to himself, there are free meals in the canteen, why would I take care of it another way? Spending the money and effort, I'm not that stupid!
Liang ShaoGang added, "The company has shuttle buses to and from HongSheng Building and HongLe Garden every morning and evening. You can take an unlimited number of trips every month for 100 yuan. However, the route of the shuttle bus is a little roundabout, and it is easy to get caught in a traffic jam at the peak commute hours, so the people in our security department generally don't ride. We just run back and forth as a workout."
Ji XiaoYu immediately stated, "I'll also run in the future!"
He didn't care about exercise or whatever; the key was saving 100 yuan on transportation by not riding. With that money, he could buy half a can of milk powder.
Then Liang ShaoGang led Ji XiaoYu to Unit 3 of Building 2. They took the stairs to the 4th floor and went to Room 405. He pulled out his key to open the door, "Come on in."
Ji XiaoYu followed him in. He found a small living room with simple but clean furnishings, with a 21-inch TV set. There were three bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchenette with simple kitchenware, such as a microwave, and a small separate balcony outside the living room, with a few clothes hanging from a rack.
Liang ShaoGang pointed to the two adjacent bedrooms, "The one with the game poster on the door is Liu WeiRen's. You'll stay in the room next door. The room isn't big, but it has the basic furniture. There's also some company-issued bedding in the closet, but, before you use it, you better wash it. There's a washing machine on the balcony......."
Before he finished speaking, Ji XiaoYu has already rushed into the room like a runaway wild dog.
How very, very, very great! He would live alone in the room and, when he slept at night and closed the door, he can safely incubate the egg!
Cheng Zong, I love you so much!
......
At this time in a courtyard in the capital, Cheng YuTang was playing chess with his father under a grape rack and suddenly he sneezed twice in a row without warning.
Mother Cheng was washing her hands in the kitchen before making soup and, when she heard the sound, she immediately ran out and asked, "TangTang, are you catching a cold?"
"No, it was just a sudden itchy nose, " Cheng YuTang said, thinking there better not be someone talking about him behind his back. Then he rubbed his nose and said a little helplessly, "Ma, would you please stop calling me TangTang? I'm thirty-three."
Mother Cheng angrily said, "Even if you are eighty-three, you're my son. Besides, I don't call you that in front of outsiders, what are you so shy about?"
Cheng YuTang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Father Cheng took a sip of tea leisurely, then dropped a piece on the board, making a light noise.
Mother Cheng added, "TangTang, are you free this afternoon? Accompany your mama shopping, to buy a handbag and some match clothes."
Cheng YuTang was immediately vigilant and he said tactfully, "You should ask a few friends to hang out with you. I don't like to go shopping. I haven't done any research on women's handbags either. No, it'll be bad for your mood."
"You've only come back once in the past six months. What's wrong with going shopping with your mama?" Mother Cheng suddenly acted wronged. She lifted her hand and stroked the hair on the sides of her face."Is it too embarrassing to go out on the street with your mama who is this old?"
Cheng YuTang hadn't yet replied when Father Cheng stood up and put his arm around his wife's shoulders, softly coaxing, "How could that be? You're exactly the same as you were twenty years ago, haven't changed a bit. If our son doesn't join you, I'll accompany you, so just freely buy what you like."
Although he had been fed this dog food by his parents since he was a child, he still felt a little nauseated seeing this image of a loving and beautiful couple. After a while, he felt a little melancholy. I don't know if I'll have this kind of luck in my life, to spend the rest of my life with another person.
A few thin crow's feet appeared at the corners of Mother Cheng's eyes, but she didn't smile. She gave her husband's shoulder a gentle punch, discontent, "Don't come, you're so old, I've already seen you enough. Our TangTang's still so handsome, so I want our son to accompany me."
This time, Father Cheng was the one mourning. He shot a hard look at Cheng YuTang.
Cheng YuTang had no choice but to say, "Okay, okay, I'll accompany you, when do you want to go shopping? Whatever you want to buy, you can buy. Is that good?"
"Good!" Only then did Mother Cheng turn her sorrow into joy.
After lunch, Mother Cheng took a nap and then washed up. She changed into with a dark green cheongsam and put on a light makeup. She looked gentle and elegant, appearing as if she were in her early 40s.
"Ma, you're beautiful, " Cheng YuTang sincerely praised her.
Mother Cheng laughed and said, "Thank you, son, you're also very handsome."
Cheng YuTang had dressed in a light-colored, casual linen suit with a pair of cloth shoes on his feet. He was about two parts less haughty and cold, which was his usual daily work style, and two parts more light. He looked casual and free.
Cheng YuTang personally drove, taking Mother Cheng to a high-end commercial pedestrian street. When the car was parked, the mother and son strolled around, talking with their arms linked.
After a while, Mother Cheng checked her wrist and looked at the table further down. Then she immediately said, "TangTang, I'm a little thirsty. Shall we find a place to sit down and have something to drink?"
Cheng YuTang was about to agree, but then he inadvertently glanced into the roadside cafe. His brow suddenly furrowed.
There was a mother-and-daughter pair sitting in the booth behind the floor-to-ceiling glass window of the cafe. Their appearance and clothes were very good. The young girl's face was especially bright and beautiful, her smile elegant and delicate, and many passers-by couldn't help but look back as they walked by.
