Chapter 213: 206: Changling Parachutes into Huaqi Technology (Second Update)
Wen Changling resigned from her hospital job, and Qin Qi hoped she would join Huaqi Technology.
On Monday, she went to Huaqi for her orientation, and just as she entered the company’s main gate, Qin Qi’s secretary Dai Qiu came over specially to receive her.
“Miss Wen.”
Dai Qiu said, “President Qin is still in a meeting, I will take you to complete your onboarding process first.”
“Thank you for the trouble.”
“Don’t mention it.”
Changling no longer wore glasses and dressed for comfort, wearing a thin, round-neck diamond-patterned down jacket over an off-white sweatshirt, paired with simple jeans, looking fresh and clean like a student just out of school.
She did not dress up deliberately, but she was still very noticeable, even Dai Qiu, a woman herself, couldn’t help but glance at her a few extra times, no wonder she had so caught someone’s attention.
After composing herself, Dai Qiu led Changling into the elevator.
The main business of Huaqi Technology is communication networks and intelligent terminals, and the technology and research and development system is Huaqi’s largest department, which is divided into several branches, among which the technology department is responsible for the research on the group’s core technologies.
Wang Jun is a senior network engineer in the second group of the technology department.
In the break room, Wang Jun’s colleague Liu Chuanlong joked while brewing coffee, “We will have to start calling you Deputy Manager soon.”
Wang Jun was already thirty-two this year and had been in Huaqi’s technology department for seven years, where promotions were the most competitive in the whole company.
“Stop talking nonsense.”
“Has the official notification email from HR not arrived yet?”
Wang Jun adjusted his thick glasses on the bridge of his nose, the continuous stirring of his hand betraying his anxiety and unease: “It was always an uncertain matter.”
Liu Chuanlong, whose position was lower than Wang Jun’s, flattered him, “How can it be uncertain? Who else could it be if not you? Manager Zhou said it very clearly last time.”
Wang Jun keep refreshing his work email repeatedly after returning to his desk.
A colleague from the technology department returned from outside.
“I was just in HR and saw Dai Qiu bringing a girl to do the onboarding,” the colleague named Tian Hailin said. “I took a glance over there and it turned out she’s joining our tech second group.”
Liu Chuanlong picked up the conversation, “Finally, our monk’s temple is going to have a woman?”
In fact, the tech second group did have female employees, including a senior female engineer who happened to be absent at the moment; the tech department simply had no unmarried, young, and single female employees.
With great surprise and exaggeration in his voice, Tian Hailin said, “And she’s a real beauty.”
Liu Chuanlong disbelieved, “I think you’ve been single too long, you see everyone as fair and beautiful.”
“She really is a beauty.”
Liu Chuanlong, who had a bit of prejudice against women working in computer science and network technology, said, “Can a woman really hack technical work? She must be an airdrop.” Upon realizing his words were inappropriate, he added, “Except for Engineer Shen.”
Engineer Shen was the senior female engineer in the same group.
Speaking of airdrops, the technology department within the research and development system was infamously known as Huaqi’s golden plating department, since access to core technologies made it the easiest place to achieve results.

Half an hour later, the HR manager personally escorted the newcomer over. Seeing is believing, Liu Chuanlong believed it, she indeed was a great beauty, and did not look like someone who studied network technology.
Having just joined the company with no actual work assignments, nor anyone to talk to her, her direct supervisor Wang Jun gave her a pile of project materials to review.
Approaching noon, Dai Qiu messaged Changling saying she had something to do and couldn’t take her for lunch, but she could arrange for someone to accompany her.
Changling declined and went to the employee canteen by herself. Huaqi Technology was large scale with three canteens in the headquarters alone. She had just sat down with her meal when someone approached from the opposite seat.
“Is this seat taken?”
Changling looked up, “No, it’s not.”
Two ladies came over; Changling recognized one of them, Meng Duolan, the legal director of Huaqi Technology. The other lady had a work badge indicating she was from the HR department, named Yu Wen.
They sat down across from Changling.
“I heard that Miss Wen you joined us today,” Meng Duolan said. “Congratulations.”
Changling was quite polite but reserved with people she was not familiar with and did not engage in much conversation, “Thank you.”
Meng Duolan was refined from head to toe, wearing stylish and expensive clothes, well-groomed hair, carefully matched accessories, and with table manners and conversational artistry that exuded a sophisticated and composed elite presence, “I heard from President Qin at the banquet that you were a nurse, so you probably haven’t been involved with ICT-related work before, have you?”
Changling spoke gently, “I know a little bit.” Her two mentors had always advocated being low-key when out and about.
Meng Duolan smiled kindly, “Knowing just a little bit might not be enough at Huaqi, especially in the technology and development departments.”
Changling did not reply.
Yu Wen enjoyed spreading rumors, everyone in the company knew that. The news about the tech second group getting a new employee with substantial backing but little relevance to the work spread rapidly throughout the company.
