The Epic Revenge Chapter 1544: He Wei’s work
He Wei went to Singapore this time, and things went well, and he was praised by Mr. Gent, the president of their branch.
Mr. Ghent is a white British man who is in his early fifties this year. He is tall and a little bald. His appearance can be called dignified, but his character is worrying.
The bank she worked for was called "Lydener Bank". It used to be a gold and silverware business. Later, Mr. and Mrs. Laydener got married. After the two banks joined together, the current big bank was established.
Lyden Bank has ninety-eight branches worldwide, including four in Asia.
The Hong Kong branch has about 300 employees, but there are only 11 women, including only 2 Asian women.
One named Zhang Zhu, two years older than He Wei, is the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Hong Kong. Her cousin is a famous doctor named Luo Ilin, and she also knows Pei Cheng, Gu Qingzhou's sister-in-law.
The other is He Wei.
Mr. Ghent, the branch manager, likes beautiful Asian-faced beauties. Every time he sees Zhang Zhu and He Wei, his eyes light up.
Jang Soo has a prominent family, and he dares not be frivolous about it.
He Wei was recommended by someone from the head office. He didn't know the details of He Wei, so he didn't dare to make a move for the time being, and he only used words to tease him from time to time.
He Wei never dared to reveal her identity, for fear that Mr. Ghent would aggravate her harassment if she knew she was from a poor family.
So when the bank discussed the batch of gold bars under Gu Qingzhou's name, He Wei deliberately said: "This is Mrs. Si's, she is my sister."
Others asked if it was my sister.
He Wei hesitated: "The relationship is very close."
It must be expensive to save so much money. In order to prove that what he said was true, He Wei took the initiative to ask Ying to do it.
She really did it, and said that she was sent back by Gu Qingzhou by plane.
Mr. Gent got the document, showing a bit of caution on his face, and he was also a lot more polite to He Wei, the kind of polite politeness in official business.
"I hope I can last a little longer, and I won't be exposed so quickly." He Wei walked out of the bank, only temporarily relieved.
She has heard that Mr. Ghent's term is five years, and this year is his fourth.
He Wei is waiting for Mr. Ghent to be transferred, while waiting for her boyfriend to come to Hong Kong quickly.
She'll probably be better off when she gets married.
In today's world, it's too hard for a woman to have a career, especially a woman with a little beauty. Those bosses or male colleagues who think that you are not at home with your husband and children are just sending them to make fun of them. They don't take you lightly, as if they have failed you.
He Wei thought, when she gets married and works longer hours, her situation will definitely change.
Her boyfriend is also a child of an ordinary family with many brothers and sisters. He was able to study such an expensive medical course because his uncle financed him.
In such a family, her boyfriend would definitely not object to her work.
Thinking about this, He Wei's mood has improved a lot.
She got off the tram from the next street, just happened to see a small butcher's shop on the corner, thinking that there was no food at home, she bought two pounds of small ribs.
He Wei's house has thin walls and not much space. It is about 30 square meters. She is quite comfortable living alone.
After I got home, I cooked the ribs, and was about to collect the juice and put it out of the pot, when someone knocked on the door.
He was slightly surprised.
She walked cautiously to the door and asked who?
The people outside the door spoke English: "Young lady, what are you cooking? It smells so good?"
The voice is old, with a bit of laziness and deepness.
He Wei knew that this was the old Englishman in the room next to her. She went to work several times in the morning and met him when he returned from buying wine.
He lived a very dejected and decadent life, his clothes were dirty and wrinkled, his hair and beard were messy, and his face was barely visible. When he met his neighbors, he didn't say hello, and passed by without seeing him.
Compared to the other two households, this old Englishman is very quiet and never disturbs the people.
He Wei opened the door.
Sure enough, I saw him standing at the door.
He exudes a faint aroma of wine, and he has just woken up ignorantly. He may have been drinking for a day, but now he wakes up and is hungry.
"It's braised pork ribs." He Wei said, "I put a lot of **** and garlic, can you eat it?"
Few of the British people she knows like to eat ginger, and garlic is reluctant.
However, braised meat cannot be separated from these.
"I like **** and garlic, give me a bowl," said the old man.
He Wei said: "Okay, come in and eat, I just didn't eat."
The old gentleman did not go in, but stood at the door and said, "Gentlemen don't go into single ladies' rooms, especially young ladies."
He Wei laughed: "Then I'll serve you a bowl, wait a moment."
The old gentleman said again: "Please close the door before going to Sheng, young people should know how to protect themselves."
He Wei was stunned for a while, but felt that his words were reasonable, and he closed the door first.
She quickly filled a bowl of braised pork ribs and a large bowl of rice, and brought them to him together: "The rest of the soup mixed with rice is delicious."
The old gentleman took it.
Early the next morning, before going to work, He Wei saw two more bowls in front of him, one of which had a piece of chocolate candy.
She took out the candy and ate it and went to work happily.
This evening, when she came back from get off work, she met the old gentleman on the path downstairs. He was still in tatters, carrying two bottles of wine in his hand.
He admired He Wei's ribs, saying it was the best he'd ever eaten.
"I'm making braised pork on weekends, and I'll give you a portion too." He Wei said generously.
She asked about the old gentleman, where he was from the UK, why he came to Hong Kong, and what about the rest of the family?
The old gentleman said he was from London.
"After being busy for most of my life, I suddenly wanted to write a book, so I thought about wandering around, and I happened to be in Hong Kong. The wine here is delicious.
My wife and I have been married for forty years, and she shaves my beard every morning, even when she's sick. That morning, our two dogs of twelve years followed her.
I lost everything in one day and never wanted to stay in London, so I decided to look around, drink and write poetry as I did when I was young. said the old gentleman.
Speaking of this, there is a deep sadness on his face.
He Wei heard him talk about his wife and his dog, but he didn't mention his children and grandchildren, maybe he didn't, so she didn't ask any more, just said: "Your ideal is very romantic."
The old man suddenly asked: "Young lady, what are your ideals?"
He smiled and said, "Work hard."
"Work is not ideal, it's survival. Are you working at Leidner Bank?" the old man asked.
"You know that too?"
“You once went to work in the morning, and on the file bag you took, there was the stamp of Leidenelle.” The old man said.
He was slightly surprised.
That's an internal stamp, and outsiders will definitely not know it.
"You also worked in Leiden?" He Wei was a little surprised.
The old man sighed: "Yes. A failed thing, waste of my time, it's not worth it, it has no meaning other than making money. If I wrote poetry earlier, I must be a poet now. "
He Wei is amused. She had some respect for the bank deposit and did not follow the old man to slander it.
