Chapter 493: Temporary Borrowing

For the next few days, Liu Chuxue followed Sister Hong to the bank for several days.

That day, she had just finished her tasks when she saw Section Chief Xu of Finance Section Three walk in: "Sister Hong, is your section chief here?"

Hong Chunmei looked at Section Chief Xu: "She is here. Do you need something?"

Section Chief Xu glanced at Liu Chuxue first, then quickly walked toward the inner office: "I have something to ask her."

He lightly knocked on the office door: "Section Chief Li."

Section Chief Li looked up and saw the chief of Section Three at the door: "Section Chief Xu, why have you come?"

Xu Sihai walked inside while saying: "I've come to ask for a favor."

Section Chief Li, somewhat puzzled, asked: "What is it?"

Xu Sihai rubbed his hands: "It's the end of the month. One of my staff is at home resting to protect her pregnancy, another took leave due to family matters back home, and this morning, one more broke their bicycle brake and fell into the hospital."

Hearing this, Section Chief Li understood immediately: "You want to borrow someone?"

Xu Sihai wore a flattering expression: "Rest assured, I only need to borrow one person."

As he spoke, he glanced toward the outer main office.

Section Chief Li didn't need to ask to know whom he wanted to borrow.

Their section also had many tasks at the end of the month, but since Section Chief Xu had spoken, even if she was unwilling, she couldn't refuse his face: "You can only borrow for three days; you must find a solution quickly."

Section Chief Xu immediately put on a smiling face: "Good, good, good. Then I will take the person away right now."

Section Chief Li called out to the outside: "Liu Chuxue, come here."

Liu Chuxue put down her pen, stood up, and walked in: "Section Chief."

Section Chief Li looked up: "Liu Chuxue, let Sister Hong handle your current tasks. Many people in Section Three have taken leave these days, and Section Chief Xu wants to borrow you to help in Section Three for a few days."

Liu Chuxue didn't mind and nodded in agreement: "Okay, Section Chief."

She went out to greet Sister Hong, then followed Section Chief Xu to Section Three.

Section Chief Xu introduced Liu Chuxue to the section members: "We are short-handed these days, so I borrowed a fierce general from Section One. Everyone, welcome her."

Liu Chuxue simply greeted the people and threw herself into the work.

After Section Chief Xu left, someone whispered: "I don't know what the section chief was thinking, borrowing such a new person. If something goes wrong, who will be responsible?"

"Each counts separately. If something goes wrong, they won't come after you. What are you worried about?"

"I'm not afraid she might make a mistake and implicate us."

"Come on. She passed the exam by ability, not some clueless relative. Even if she makes a mistake, they will only go after her. It won't affect you."

"I didn't mean anything else."

"Alright, I know you mean well. But the person was borrowed personally by Section Chief Xu. Whether she can do it or not, we must respect her."

Hearing this, Liu Chuxue didn't even lift her head. She was only borrowed, not staying with them long-term. Rather than arguing with them, she should finish her work quickly so she could return early to handle her own affairs.

She checked the portion assigned to her. Just then, Section Chief Xu walked in: "Section Chief Xu, once I finish these, I can leave, right?"

Section Chief Xu looked at an older sister: "Sister Wu, is the portion assigned to Comrade Xiao Liu all here?"

That Sister Wu nodded and replied: "Yes, this portion is the part handled by Comrade Xiao Jia."

Hearing this, Section Chief Xu nodded at Liu Chuxue: "Once you finish these, you can go back."

Liu Chuxue confirmed the tasks and sat down.

At first, some people glanced her way, but seeing that she hadn't touched the abacus for a long time and was instead writing continuously with a pen, they were curious but too embarrassed to gather around.

Sister Wu, unable to bear it any longer, said: "If you delay any longer, you'll probably have to work overtime tonight."
