Maybe it was because I hadn't been home for a long time, but Lu Xin slept very well that night, and I didn't even have a single dream.

I don't know if anyone has been here.

Early the next morning, good quality sleep brought a happy mood. Just like every day for many years before, he got up on time at 7:30, washed up, cooked another meal of instant noodles and canned food left over from the road, and happily had breakfast with his father and sister. Then he changed his clothes, went downstairs in high spirits, then picked one of the three cars and drove up.

Tsk tsk.

Picked one and drove it...

Even if my cars all look the same, it feels really good to choose one of the three cars!

It's like choosing a concubine.

Of course, his three concubines all look the same, but so what?

Not a concubine?

Pat the steering wheel, put on your sunglasses, close the sun visor and act like an experienced driver.

I went to work happily, and I didn't forget to put a box of Black Marsh City's stinky tofu and Saltwater Beer in the trunk.

These are souvenirs brought back from Black Marsh City. Silver Hair specially asked him to share them with his friends to try them, so as to open up sales in Qinggang.

When I came back yesterday, Lu Xin had already enthusiastically left a box for Chen Jing and the others in the Special Purity Department.

This box is specially brought to colleagues in the company.

After all, after experiencing the incident of Black Marsh City, Lu Xin suddenly felt enlightened.

I used to be a bit clumsy and not very good at life. No wonder I couldn't get enough of it in the company.

It's different now. At least I know that I still need to keep in touch with my colleagues frequently.

For example, I went to Black Marsh City and asked them to bring some souvenirs when I came back.

After driving the off-road vehicle into the company's parking lot, Lu Xin carried the box of stinky tofu and walked briskly upstairs.

"Wow..."

When he walked into the office, the bustling colleagues fell into silence and looked at him in surprise.

Soon, the enthusiasm was high, and colleagues all greeted Lu Xin enthusiastically.

"Oh, Director Lu, are you back?"

"Little Lu Brother, what have you been doing during this time?"

He greeted him enthusiastically and called "Director Lu". The male colleague who came to help him move the boxes, the female colleague who casually handed over an apple, and the few people who had been working on the project with Lu Xin all looked at each other and began to quietly stuff money into the envelope...

Lu Xin I am really happy. I have spent less time in the company during this period, and my popularity is getting better and better.

Probably because these colleagues saw that they had never been kidnapped by the Guard Department, fired from the company, or beaten to death in the gang fight. Instead, their status in the company was getting higher and higher, and their relationship with the leaders was getting better and better, so they accepted their fate.

"Oh, you are finally back..."

After getting the news, Manager Liu also trotted out of the office with excitement on his face.

"Director Lu, you don't know that without you, our company's performance will simply deteriorate day by day..."

"..."

Lu Xin are all a little surprised. Has their importance in the company reached this level?

"You asked for leave, and President Xiao didn't come. If President Xiao didn't come, many important projects would not be our company's turn. So I am looking forward to the stars and the moon every day for your return. President Xiao also told me to call him as soon as you come back."

After listening to Manager Liu's explanation, Lu Xin reacted.

This little President Xiao co-author only comes to the company when he is there?

But he is a dignified boss, and he is surrounded by a supervisor like himself every day. Isn't it a bit unprofessional?

"I just finished busy with the small things on the other side, and I hurried back to deal with the work."

Lu Xin also gave a somewhat embarrassed explanation. He took the box from the colleague next to him, handed it to Manager Liu, and said with a smile, "Everyone has worked hard during this period. This is a souvenir I brought back to you on the road. I will give it to my colleagues..."

"You actually brought some specialties?"

"Oh, it's food, I have to try it..."

Manager Liu didn't seem to expect that Lu Xin would actually bring them souvenirs, and he felt flattered.

He quickly agreed, asked people to tear open the box, and shouted to his enthusiastic colleagues, "Don't forget to leave a few more bags for President Xiao..."

Seeing them happily fighting for it, Lu Xin was very pleased and kindly advised, "This is Black Marsh City's specialty. It's particularly delicious. They like to braise meat sprouts noodles, but we don't have meat sprouts here and the food is cold, but I think you can take it back and stew it in a pressure cooker. It should taste great with rice... Don't eat it in the company, after all, it's not easy to heat it up."

"I know, Director Lu..."

"It just so happened that my mother-in-law came to my house today, and she was very lucky..."

"Eh? Soybean curd, I like this the most..."

"..."

Lu Xin felt even more pleased when she thought of her colleagues enjoying themselves as a family at night eating Black Marsh City specialties given by her.

... No, it's happiness.

After enthusiastically introducing how to eat local specialties with his colleagues, Lu Xin returned to his office.

It seems that nothing has changed since when I left. It seems that this company still respects me very much and no one has come in.

He sat down relaxedly and turned on the computer.

I found the hidden folder first and saw that the contents were still there, which made me feel relieved.

Now that I have returned to the company, I have to work hard. There are many projects that have been dropped during this period.

While thinking this, Lu Xin took out the project information to study.

It's a pity that it keeps getting interrupted.

Outside employees came to his office quietly at a frequency of one every ten minutes. While reporting to him on the project progress during this period, they put the calculated project rebates and other benefits into thick envelopes and placed them in front of him.

He also quietly asked for instructions. Many customers wanted to meet this legendary person in charge. When can we go over to socialize?

Please!

It's still a standard three-field petition!!

Just like this, one at a time, one at a time, the morning passed like this.

How can people concentrate on work and study?

Or...

...Lu Xin has readjusted his status and responsibilities. Now these are his work and studies?

"I heard that Director Lu is back?"

"Vice President Xiao is good..."

"Director Lu is in the office..."

"..."

I was busy until the afternoon, and soon there was a sound of greeting outside the office, and Vice President Xiao was indeed here.

Lu Xin calmly put the envelope into the drawer, took a document, opened it, and placed it in front of him.

"Xiao Lu..."

After a while, the glass door was lightly knocked, and a shiny head stuck in. "... Brother, what are you busy with?"

"To be precise, I'm embezzling your family's money..."

Lu Xin thought to himself, raised his head, smiled, and said, "Fortunately, it won't be very busy."

"That's good."

Vice President Xiao then pushed open the glass door and walked in. He sat on the small plastic stool next to the computer desk with some restraint, and said with a smile, "I have been thinking about when you will come back these days, and I am getting a little impatient while waiting. I happened to think of someone calling Manager Liu today to ask, and you are back. Little Lu Brother, if you are fine tonight, can we go have a meal together after work?"

"Huh?"

Lu Xin was a little wary after hearing this. "Have you encountered special pollution again?"

"Special pollution?"

President Xiao was also startled for a moment, with a slightly nervous expression. "It shouldn't be, right?"

As he spoke, he began to think about it seriously, "But I recently met a woman and I like her very much. Does this count?"

Lu Xin looked up at him and said, "It's possible. How much do you like it?"

President Xiao didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he pinched his waist subconsciously.

"I've only been gone for less than a month, and I've already exhausted you to this extent?"

Lu Xin was slightly shocked. This means that it may indeed be seriously contaminated, right?

President Xiao's smiling face was also a little panicked, and said, "This, I really didn't expect... how to judge?"

"Well..."

Lu Xin thought about it seriously and said, "Can you try to scold her severely in your heart and simulate an emotion of disgust?"

President Xiao was very serious. After trying it for a while, he was a little surprised and said, "It doesn't seem possible."

"Oh."

Lu Xin thought for a while and said seriously, "Then you are indeed contaminated."

President Xiao shivered in fright, dropped the car keys in his hand, and said in a panic, "What kind of pollution?"

"Judging from the symptoms, it should be love..."

Lu Xin shook his head slightly, feeling that it was funny that he was silent.

Being affected by Mental Pollution means that one's own thinking or emotions have been affected. It must have some kind of distortion or tearing meaning, and it is not consistent enough. It is like loving her in behavior, but full of hatred in the heart. Therefore, this small method can be used to make a general distinction. Of course, the accuracy is not that high, but many hidden possibilities can be ruled out...

Another reason that makes Lu Xin very certain is how it is possible to encounter special pollution so easily.

I've met this President Xiao twice...

"Huh? Huh? Oh!"

President Xiao panicked for a while, then suddenly realized something was wrong. After thinking about it carefully, he gradually relaxed. "You scared me to death."

Then he came over and continued the original topic, "How about having dinner together tonight?"

"Not only me, but also Gao Yan and several other friends. They have been telling me that they will ask me to date you as soon as you come back. I have been pushed so hard by them that I finally waited until you came back to the company..."

"..."

"What did they ask me to do?"

Lu Xin was slightly startled and didn't quite understand.

"Well, maybe I have something I want to consult with you on..."

Vice President Xiao was a little vague, his eyes flickering, and said, "I don't know the specifics."

"Forget it, I have to go to the building materials market after work, so I really don't have time."

Lu Xin At first glance, he knew that he had something he didn't say clearly, but after thinking about it, he shook his head reservedly and said, "Besides, I don't like eating with people I don't know well. If something really happens to them, just ask them to call the police directly. It will be no problem."

After just a moment's thought, I realized that Vice President Xiao's friend must be of extraordinary wealth. How could he treat me to dinner if he had nothing to do?

Maybe it has something to do with my part-time job.

However, Special Purity Department has a rule that he cannot take the initiative to admit his identity in front of outsiders. Although Vice President Xiao's memory has not been erased, there is no need to pretend too much in front of him, but this does not mean that he can go out and talk nonsense...

Therefore, it is better to go to such occasions as little as possible. After all, I am also a principled person.

"This..."

President Xiao heard that Lu Xin's principles were very firm. He hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Why are you going to the building materials market?"

Lu Xin answered calmly, "I recently planned to renovate my house, but it is too old."

"That's it?"

When President Xiao heard this, he felt relieved and said with a smile, "Do you still need to do all these things yourself? Just leave it to me."

"Leave it to you?"

Lu Xin finds it a bit strange and has never thought about this.

"Just tell me how you plan to pretend, and I'll find someone to do it."

President Xiao smiled and said, "You have put in so much effort for the company, isn't it right for the company to help you decorate your house?"

"..."

At this moment, Lu Xin was really moved. After thinking for a while, he handed over the list.

"Just follow the purchasing instructions above and arrange for decoration workers."

Then he said, "Where should we eat at night?"
