Chapter 32 Guidance Work
Chapter 32 Guidance Work
Stepping out of the workshop, Ma Junjie realized that it was already completely dark.
Inside the workshop, the bright, glaring fluorescent lights made it feel like daytime, causing you to lose track of time.
When I came out, I realized that a lot of time had passed.
Once downstairs, Wang Xiaohua asked Ma Junjie,
"Ah Jie, you've had a long day. How about we go out for something to eat? I'll treat you to watermelon!"
Ma Junjie shook his head.
"Thank you, Sister Wang. I want to go home early to shower and go to bed."
Wang Xiaohua replied, "Okay, it's definitely very tiring at the beginning. You should get some rest!"
After they finished speaking, the two bid each other farewell.
Ma Junjie walked towards the dormitory.
As he walked down to the dormitory building, he suddenly saw someone heading towards the girls' dormitory.
Ma Junjie suddenly remembered,
He slapped his head hard.
Oops!
He broke his promise! He forgot his appointment with Li Xuemei!
We had agreed to meet at the dormitory building at noon. She even gave me an umbrella and offered to mend my clothes.
But when I got busy, I completely forgot!
"Damn it!" Ma Junjie said, somewhat annoyed.
Li Xuemei was, in a sense, the first friend I made after coming to this factory.
It's really not right to break your promise so early in the game.
Ma Junjie looked up at the girls' dormitory building. The buildings were indistinct and he didn't know where Li Xuemei lived.
Even if he knew, he couldn't possibly go in to find her.
Ma Junjie sighed.
"Oh well, never mind! I'll come back tomorrow at noon and see if I can run into her!"
Thinking this, Ma Junjie walked into the boys' dormitory building, climbed up to the third floor with little energy, and returned to his own room.
There were only two people in the dorm; the others were out playing, and some were probably working the night shift.
Ma Junjie glanced at the bathroom; luckily, no one was there, so he could take a shower and do laundry early.
He quickly took off his clothes, then went into the bathroom, took a shower, and then started washing clothes.
After doing all this, he found himself drenched in sweat again, making his previous shower seem pointless.
Having no other option, Ma Junjie went into the bathroom again and rinsed off.
He came out again, feeling much better. Sitting on the bed, he saw a model catalog under the pillow on the next bed.
The models above are dressed scantily and have hot figures.
Ma Junjie walked over out of curiosity, intending to pick it up and admire it.
Upon closer inspection, it was found to be sticky and gooey, with some strange stuff stuck to it.
Especially the model's breasts and lower body,
It was absolutely appalling.
Ma Junjie frowned and quickly returned to his bed.
Lying in bed, the other two continued looking at their phones, occasionally bursting into laughter.
Ma Junjie was so tired that he collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep very quickly.
In the middle of the night, Ma Junjie woke up again because of the heat, and afterwards, he tossed and turned, unable to fall back asleep.
Just like yesterday, it was almost dawn when the temperature dropped, and I barely managed to squint my eyes.
I woke up feeling groggy this morning.
Ma Junjie suddenly had an urgent desire to move out as soon as possible.
But I was short of money, so I had to make money as quickly as possible.
Upon arriving at the cafeteria, they found they were early and still had fried dough sticks. Ma Junjie ordered one and a bowl of rice noodles. The rice noodles were bland and tasteless, basically just noodles boiled in water.
Ma Junjie finished his meal haphazardly and went to work in the workshop.
Sitting at my workstation,
Wang Xiaohua glanced at Ma Junjie and asked,
"Ah Jie, what happened to you yesterday? Why did you have such dark circles under your eyes?"
Ma Junjie replied weakly, "It's too hot, I really can't sleep."
"And the person in the bed next to mine yesterday, they kept moving around all night, it was so annoying!"
Wang Xiaohua shook her head and said...
"Ah Jie, I've experienced all of this before. It's perfectly normal!"
"Ah Jie, I'll say it again: if possible, consider moving out. You can find a cheap shared apartment for around 100 yuan a month."
Ma Junjie replied,
"Okay, Sister Wang, I'll think about it."
Immediately afterwards, the morning meeting was held as usual. After a speech and slogans, everyone began to repeat the same work as yesterday.
Today was much easier. It was a normal workload, no overtime, and I could leave work at 5 pm.
Ma Junjie was very happy, thinking that he could finally go buy some earmuffs and earplugs.
If you have a cheap electric fan, it would be even better to buy one.
I worked for almost four hours straight this morning.
Just before the end of the workday, Zhang Jun walked in again and shouted,
"Alright, everyone stop!"
Upon hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing.
The machines on the assembly line stopped immediately.
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie's heart skipped a beat. He had a feeling that Zhang Jun was up to no good and was up to some trouble again!
This was Zhang Jun's unusually cheerful expression as he spoke.
"My brothers and sisters, thank you for your hard work!"
"Next, let's welcome Assistant Factory Manager Liu to our workshop for an inspection and guidance!"
"Let's give them a warm round of applause!"
After saying that, Liu Bingbing walked in with a big smile, waved her hand, and signaled everyone to stop.
Ma Junjie looked at Liu Bingbing with great surprise.
He wondered to himself, "Why is Liu Bingbing here if she has nothing to do?"
She kept glancing at the clock on the wall, afraid of missing the end of the workday and being late for dinner.
I'm afraid I'll miss my appointment with Li Xuemei again!
He listened to Liu Bingbing's words absentmindedly.
At this moment, Wang Xiaohua suddenly patted Ma Junjie and called out...
"Ah Jie, Ah Jie!"
Ma Junjie was surprised and looked at Wang Xiaohua, but Wang Xiaohua kept giving Ma Junjie meaningful glances.
He said softly,
"Over there, Assistant Liu is watching you. He just called your name!"
"Huh?" Ma Junjie was greatly surprised and quickly looked at Liu Bingbing.
Sure enough, Liu Bingbing was staring at him with a smile.
Then I heard her say,
"Packaging Department Group 3 is an excellent group. Everyone works together, helps each other, and cares for newcomers..."
"I heard there's a new employee named Ma Junjie who became very proficient and quickly got the hang of things after just one day. That's really impressive..."
"Yesterday's task was so difficult, but it was completed successfully. Congratulations!"
As Ma Junjie listened, he still didn't understand what Liu Bingbing meant.
However, he still felt a little embarrassed to be praised in front of so many people.
He was smiling happily.
I glanced at Zhang Jun casually.
He was stunned for a moment.
Zhang Jun kept staring at him, his eyes like knives, as if he wanted to kill him.
Ma Junjie smiled deliberately.
He showed a disdainful expression.
This infuriated Zhang Jun so much that he clenched his jaw and widened his eyes even further.
After Liu Bingbing finished speaking, she glanced at the clock on the wall; it was exactly twelve o'clock, and the workshop bell rang to signal the end of the workday.
Liu Bingbing said,
"Everyone's worked hard, let's go eat!"
Without any hesitation, everyone stood up and rushed outside.
Zhang Jun smiled helplessly, turned around, and said humbly to Liu Bingbing,
"Assistant Liu, thank you for your concern for our employees. How about this, I'll invite Director Huang and you two out for a casual lunch!"
Liu Bingbing, however, didn't even look at Zhang Jun; she was absent-minded, her eyes fixed on the crowd.
Just then, seeing Ma Junjie suddenly brush past him, he quickly ran over and called out.
"Ma Junjie, wait! Don't go!"
