Chapter 1371: Who’s There? (4)
Nian Xiaomu turned and headed into the lounge by herself.
It was also the only place in the factory which had not been affected by the fire.
Everything that could be used in the factory was basically moved here, so it was now a temporary storage room.
Just when Nian Xiaomu reached the entrance of the lounge, she spotted soone inside.
The person seed to be looking for sothing and was wondering around, going through the things on the table.
Was he a thief?
Nian Xiaomu’s nerves tightened and she swiftly approached the door of the lounge. Upon seeing that it was an unfamiliar face inside, she imdiately said in a deep voice, “Who are you and what are you doing here?”
The man in the room did not expect soone to be here at this ti, and he slowly raised his head as his hand froze in the midst of going through the things on the table.
If Nian Xiaomu had seen the side profile of an unfamiliar face earlier, she now had a clear view of the person before her.
It was a stranger indeed.
She had no recollection of this person at all.
Nian Xiaomu might not be sure about other things, but she had a photographic mory of people she had seen before. If she had really seen soone before, she would rember their face.
Unless she had never seen this person at the factory before!
“You are?”
The unfamiliar man stood properly at the table and did not have any hint of guilt on his face at all, but turned to look at Nian Xiaomu very calmly.
After a mont, he seed to have recalled sothing and he asked, “You’re the new Vice-President Nian?”
Upon hearing that the person knew her, Nian Xiaomu narrowed her eyes but did not respond.
The man spoke again, “I’m the factory’s accountant. I’ve been away from work for so ti. I just ca back two days ago and there was a fire at the factory. I heard the news that the factory would be rebuilt today, so I ca over specially to take a look.”
Upon hearing his words, Nian Xiaomu started to size the man up.
He was in his thirties and wore a pair of gold-rimd spectacles.
He was dressed very neatly and his hair had been brushed impeccably well. One could easily tell that he was usually a stern person.
Nian Xiaomu tried to recall in her head and confird that she had indeed never t the accountant before, despite having been to the factory a few tis.
She had asked Manager Hong before, and he rely said that the accountant was overseas for work and was not back yet.
She never expected to et him here.
“Hello Vice-President Nian, let introduce myself. I’m Fu Jin, nice to et you. Please look out for in the future.” The man went forward and straightened his clothes before reaching his hand out to Nian Xiaomu politely.
“It’s nice to et you. Sorry, because I haven’t seen you before, so I mistook you for a thief.” Nian Xiaomu muttered slightly awkwardly.
After shaking her hand with Fu Jin, she asked out of curiosity, “You seed to be looking for sothing earlier, what were you looking for?”
Fu Jin was stunned for a mont before he broke out in a bitter grin. “What else? Since I ca back, the fire burnt the accounting office. The seal and other important items were locked in the drawer. Today, I heard that so items were found in the fire, so I ca over to take a look. If such an important item was not burnt, I’ll have to keep it safe.”
As Fu Jin went on, he raised his head to look at the areas that had been destroyed by the fire outside and lanted while adjusting the spectacles on his nose bridge,
“I’ve been working here for many years. Never did I expect that one day, such a disaster would happen to our factory.”
Once Fu Jin was done speaking, he turned to look at Nian Xiaomu gratefully and remarked, “I almost forgot to thank Vice-President Nian. I heard that it was you who earnestly asked the company to help us rebuild the factory.”
He spoke so sincerely that Nian Xiaomu felt rather embarrassed interrupting him.
The two chatted a little before Fu Jin took out a chair to let Nian Xiaomu sit down.
“Earlier, you said that you’ve been working at the factory for many years already. Then, usually, are you the one keeping the accounts?”
