Chapter 5 Matchmaking
She turned around, and Gao Tingting ran up from behind, patted her on the shoulder, "Comrade Shen, oh no, I'll just call you Qingqing from now on, you can call me Tingting, we're about the same age. Oh right, what are you doing here? Did you go to the union to collect supplies?"
Mentioning the union gave Lin Shuyao a headache, and she listlessly shook her head: "Not yet."
Gao Tingting: "Then hurry up and go. You new employees are getting a lot of stuff. If you're late, you'll have to wait for the next batch."
"I'll go another day."
"Why? I saw in the report that you didn't bring much luggage. Aren't you in a hurry to get it? Come on, I happen to be free. I'll go with you."
"No, I can't collect it. My name isn't on the list."
"How could that be? I submitted that list, and your name was the last one. I remember it clearly. When I handed the form to the factory representative today, your name was still at the very end."
"Was the list submitted by the factory representative? Cheng Zheng?"
"Yes!"
Lin Shuyao was speechless.
Cheng Zheng just said he had no comment, but it turns out he was the one who crossed out her name.
What grudge could there be that warrants such harassment? Oh no, it's Shen Qing. She has no grudge against Cheng Zheng. It must be Shen Qing who has offended him.
Lin Shuyao kicked a pebble under her feet, thinking to herself that she was unlucky.
Gao Tingting, however, suddenly became incredibly excited, exclaiming, "Not Qingqing, you know our factory representative? Have you met him?"
"Hmm." Lin Shuyao nodded. She had not only seen him before, but she had also embarrassed herself in front of him.
"So what do you think of him? Is he handsome? Do you like him?" Gao Tingting's eyes sparkled as she looked at Lin Shuyao's face. The more she looked, the more she felt that she and her brother were a good match. After all, she rarely saw a woman whose looks were comparable to her brother's.
"Cough cough cough cough..." Upon hearing her words, Lin Shuyao coughed violently.
I still like it.
She now wishes she could kill him.
He had absolutely no gentlemanly manners and made things difficult for a female colleague who had just joined the factory!
But Lin Shuyao only dared to think these words in her heart. She dared not say them aloud. The other party already disliked her. If these words reached his ears, she would be finished and would have no choice but to pack her bags and leave.
"Qingqing, are you alright?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Lin Shuyao patted her heart, suppressing the urge to unleash a torrent of criticism.
Gao Tingting was waiting for her answer: "Let me tell you, many women in our factory have a crush on him. I know several, like Li Juan from the finance department, Wang Li from the union... What do you think of him?"
"Hmm..." Lin Shuyao organized her thoughts. One of the workplace rules is to exaggerate when praising someone, to say it without reservation. The saying goes, "Good things spread like wildfire," meaning the other person should hear it from someone else.
"Comrade factory representative, you're absolutely stunning! Those eyes, that nose, that mouth—they're practically divine creations of Nuwa! And your physique is amazing too—those lean, muscular bodies look incredibly powerful!"
Lin Shuyao delivered a series of exaggerated remarks.
Putting aside the previous grudges, Cheng Zheng's appearance did indeed match her aesthetic standards, it's just that he was a bit arrogant.
She likes the loyal, devoted type of man, the kind who is hardworking and waits on people. Of course, he also has to be good-looking and have a good physique. He has to be pleasing to the eye and have... well, you know... all the soft and hard conditions have to be there.
Hearing this, Gao Tingting beamed and chimed in, "The factory representative really has a great physique. Let me tell you, he once won first place overall in the Southern Military Region's all-army individual skills competition! His stamina and physical strength, I'm not exaggerating, tsk tsk... Anyway, whoever marries him will definitely be blessed!"
Lin Shuyao's face turned slightly yellow: "How do you know so much about him... Could it be that you also have a crush on him?"
"Oh no! I don't! I could never have a crush on someone!" Gao Tingting shook her head frantically. "He's not my type!"
"You have good taste."
"Huh? What did you say?"
"Oh no," Lin Shuyao quickly corrected herself, "That's a real shame."
Gao Tingting immediately covered her mouth and laughed, her eyes sparkling with a suggestive glint: "How about... I play matchmaker for you two?"
"No, no, no!" Lin Shuyao refused, "I can't handle it, let's leave it to other women."
"Why?" Gao Tingting asked, puzzled. "Don't you think he's quite handsome?"
Lin Shuyao made up an excuse: "He is handsome, but I still prioritize my work. I just started working, so I'm not in a hurry to find a boyfriend."
"Oh, I see." Gao Tingting thought that there would be other opportunities to match them up in the future, so there was no rush. "Then I'll go with you to get the supplies. It's okay, your name isn't on the list, I'll just add it for you."
"You can do that?" Lin Shuyao exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, don't worry, you'll definitely get it today." Gao Tingting patted her chest.
Gao Tingting wasn't lying. Lin Shuyao followed her inside and was indeed received very quickly.
Of course, neither of them knew that Cheng Zheng's assistant had already added Lin Shuyao's name before they went in.
"Tingting, thank you."
After coming out, Lin Shuyao said gratefully. She regretted going to see Cheng Zheng and losing face so badly.
Gao Tingting waved her hand: "Hey, it's nothing, let's go, I'll help you carry your things to the dorm."
The union not only issued food coupons but also bath coupons, haircut coupons, and some daily necessities.
Towels, washbasins, enamel mugs.
Gao Tingting escorted Lin Shuyao back to her dorm. Lin Shuyao felt embarrassed; the girl was too enthusiastic. "Tingting, I'll treat you to dinner another day."
"Don't mention it, Qingqing. Just let me know if you need any help in the future!"
Gao Tingting looked at Lin Shuyao's face and thought, "She's so beautiful. That fair and tender face, big and bright eyes, red lips, and her slender waist swaying as she walks."
Like a delicate flower swaying in the wind, it's a feast for the eyes.
If she could become her sister-in-law, she could see her every day.
Gao Tingting was thinking about matchmaking in her mind.
After seeing Gao Tingting off, Lin Shuyao tidied up in her dorm for a while when the dorm supervisor suddenly came up to her, saying that someone was looking for her downstairs.
Thinking of what Shen Qing wrote in his diary, Lin Shuyao knew that the second test she was about to face had arrived.
