Stand-In Boyfriend Fu Zheng Ji

Chapter 83
Is this what life and death are for?
She should have thought that Yan Yuan was someone who didn't know how to use idioms, but who liked to pretend to be educated and use idioms blindly.

Leaving aside Yan Yuan's sophistry, is it justified?
Zhang Ling was really moved when she heard Yan Yuan's wholehearted thoughts for her.

Originally, he wanted to accuse Yan Yuan of being fine, lying on the hospital bed and pretending to be pitiful, to trick her into tears.

She could only say softly:

"Okay! I've convinced you. I was having dinner with an important client just now. What do you mean by recruiting me in such a hurry?"

Yan Yuan admitted his mistake like a child and said:

"I'm sorry, I really don't know. Which important customer won't be angry when you come like this?"

"Say it quickly! After I finish speaking, I have to go back to work in the company." Her tone was a little aggressive.

Zhang Ling felt that her sudden departure probably offended Mr. Mi.

Where is she going back to the company to work?
Most likely, when he returned to the company, he would be reprimanded by the general manager of the group.

Yan Yuan realized that Zhang Ling was unhappy, so he quickly got to the point and said:
"I came to you, just want you to help me ask Li Xiang, where is that guy Chen Jian? I'll give the gift myself."

Zhang Ling slapped her head fiercely and said:
"My God! It's not like you don't have Li Xiang's phone number. Why do you have to remote control me all the way to ask?"

Besides, she dragged Li Xiang into the blacklist because of the misunderstanding made by Shangguan Aoxue.

It was a bit too embarrassing for her to take the initiative to call Li Xiang at this time.

Zhang Ling explained with a wry smile:

"Well! After all, you are a couple. I'm your best friend again. It's not good to contact Li Xiang in private."

Hearing this, Zhang Ling really wanted to confess that she wanted to break up with Li Xiang, but she didn't say it out loud.

Yan Yuan continued:
"So if this matter gets out, it's easy to cause misunderstandings from outsiders. It's like I'm seducing your family Li Xiang. As a good sister, you have to avoid suspicion, right?"

Because Yan Yuan knew from Zhang Ling that Li wanted to be in two boats.

Also filled with righteous indignation, Li Xiang was blacklisted.

What's more, she promised that Li wanted to help find out why Zhang Ling ignored him.

For this reason, Yan Yuan has already accepted the gift box that Li Xiang promised to give, but he has not yet given the answer to Li Xiang's needs.

Aside from the sisterhood with Zhang Ling, Yan Yuan felt that what he did was too ungrateful.

So the two sisters are unwilling to make this phone call to excuse each other.

"Express delivery!" Seeing that no one could be persuaded, Zhang Ling proposed first.

"Express delivery?" Yan Yuan was really unwilling to choose this method.

I always feel that giving an apology in this way is not sincere enough.

Zhang Ling went on to say:
"If you insist on sending an apology, I suggest you send the things directly to their company, and attach a letter of apology written by you."

"Okay, this suggestion is great!" Yan Yuan exclaimed happily.

Doing so also saves embarrassment when the two meet.

Zhang Ling felt relaxed as if she had unloaded a heavy burden.

Suddenly, I accidentally saw someone not far away watching them.

When the man realized that he was found, he quickly turned and left, leaving only an afterimage.

Although it was an afterimage, she was basically sure that the person must be a woman.

"Yan Yuan, did you feel that someone was watching us all the time?"

"Someone watching us?"

Listening to Zhang Ling's supernatural words, Yan Yuan nervously grabbed her arm and looked around.

"Could it be my suitors, who can't bear the loneliness and want to kidnap me with such violence? Zhang Ling, something will happen later, you must save me!"

Zhang Ling said teasingly:
"Why save you? A scourge like you should have been dealt with by someone."

"You...have no sense of loyalty!" Yan Yuan continued to argue for his behavior, "I didn't sacrifice my always pure reputation to help you drive away those suitors. Why am I going to be in trouble now, sister? You If you want to leave me alone, there is no way!"

OMG!

Yan Yuan really dared to press any words on his body.

No matter how the word "chunliang" is applied to Yan Yuan, it doesn't match her!

Zhang Ling calmed down her surprise and said:
"Okay, don't worry. It's a woman staring at us. And this woman feels very familiar to me."

"It can't be Li Xi!" Yan Yuan let go of Zhang Ling's arm and guessed, then she rolled up her sleeves and looked around again, her eyes were full of anger, "Where is it? This little girl dares to come out to beat you! I, Yan Yuan, today Just complete her."

"no!"

Although Zhang Ling looked at Yan Yuan's actions as useless, her heart was still warm.

"No? Zhang Ling, where did you attract the hatred?" Yan Yuan put a hand on Zhang Ling's shoulder and said worriedly, "Your physique of hatred! It's really worrying!"

She shook her head and explained:

"The familiarity I'm talking about is not the kind of familiarity between classmates and friends. It's..."

Zhang Ling pondered how to describe that feeling?
Yan Yuan became more curious and asked:
"what?"

Zhang Ling suddenly said:

"It's like the familiarity between relatives. To be more specific, it's probably a bit like the feeling between mother and daughter."

Because she really doesn't know how to get along with mother and daughter.

This feeling is also experienced through books, film and television dramas, etc.

Yan Yuan found it funny to hear Zhang Ling describe it like this, but considering the fact that Zhang Ling had no mother since childhood, and that they were best sisters since childhood.

Yan Yuan could only suppress the strong smile brought by Zhang Ling's words.

"Okay! It's almost time. Let's hurry to work."

Zhang Ling saw that Yan Yuan was smiling patiently, and when she walked out of the hospital gate and left, she took the initiative to say with an indifferent expression:

"Don't hold back!"

"Why don't you bear it?" Yan Yuan pretended to be ignorant and asked in confusion.

Zhang Ling said: "I know you really want to laugh. Laughing at what I said before is like the feeling between mother and daughter. You can laugh if you want to. I don't care."

Seeing Zhang Ling's bowed head, Yan Yuan's heart seemed to be broken, and the previous strong smile disappeared in an instant.

Zhang Ling was waiting for Yan Yuan's laughter, which she felt she could bear.

After all, she thought she had already accepted the fact that she didn't have a mother.

And what she just said made her fantasize about maternal love again, causing her to suddenly think that her mother was still alive.

Now that she thinks about her previous remarks, she thinks it's a big joke.

So she had to tolerate Yan Yuan's next laugh.

This is also a cruel truth, telling her to stop fantasizing about her mother.

But she didn't wait for Yan Yuan's smile for a long time.

Suddenly, she didn't expect her body to be embraced by Yan Yuan.

The tight feeling made her feel the warm body temperature of Yan Yuan, which was like a catalyst to heat up the relationship between the two of them again.

Yan Yuan's gentle voice came from beside her ear:
"Don't say that! I won't laugh at you for that. Remember we're best sisters."

Zhang Ling, who has always been strong, now burst into tears like the Yellow River bursting its embankment, and at the same time let out a "huh" with bursts of sobbing.

To be honest, she thanked Yan Yuan from the bottom of her heart for not laughing at her, but hugging her in her arms.

Because the moment she was hugged by Yan Yuan, she found that she was not as strong as she thought.

At this moment, she desperately needs a happy hug.

The time of happiness is always so short.

They can only force themselves to end the hug in order not to be late for work.

Zhang Ling walked into the group building with a nervous heart.

Some colleagues greeted her normally, some stared at her with hostile eyes, and even Xiao Jin stood in the hall early and waited for her.

"Vice President Zhang, you're here!" Xiao Jin greeted him with a smile on his face.

Looking at Xiao Jin's appearance, Zhang Ling guessed that something must have happened.

It is very likely that Mr. Mi came to the company to ask her to blame because she left early for lunch.

Zhang Ling asked bluntly, "What's the matter?"

"The general manager asked me to wait for you here, and said that as soon as he sees you at work, he will let you go to his office immediately." Xiao Jin replied.

Xiao Jin obviously didn't practice enough, and Zhang Ling could hear a bit of schadenfreude from her words.

"Oh, I got it!" Zhang Ling suddenly remembered Bie Shanliu, looked at Xiao Jin again and asked, "Has Bie Shanliu come back?"

"She! Earlier, she called and said that she would not come back to report in the afternoon. She said that there were too many things at Zhihua Technology." Xiao Jin said that this should have stopped, but continued to add embellishment, "I think she has too many things , probably..."

As Xiao Jin spoke, he could clearly feel the coldness in Zhang Ling's eyes, and he didn't dare to continue talking at the moment when his eyes met.

Zhang Ling said in a serious tone:
"Remember, you will answer what I ask in the future. Don't talk nonsense. Do you remember?"

"Remember!" Xiao Jin is now admitting his mistake to an adult like a child who has gotten into trouble.

Xiao Jin followed Zhang Ling into the elevator.

Today is very strange!
In the past, the two of them shouldn't be the only ones in the elevator at this time.

Other colleagues would rather stand outside and wait for the next elevator than come in together.

Xiao Jin still helped Zhang Ling press the number of floors habitually.

She watched Xiao Jin help press the floor where the general manager was located.

Suddenly, a similar scene appeared in my mind.

It was when she was the intelligent manufacturing project manager of X joint venture technology company.

At that time, she seemed to be facing a rumor crisis of being "nurtured".

Now her situation is not optimistic.

At noon, because of a phone call from Yan Yuan, he left the meeting early. Most likely, Mr. Mi, who had learned of Ruozhen's vision in country H, messed up the important cooperation in the eyes of many people in the group, so the general manager of the group would definitely not invite her to drink tea. .

When she came to the door of the office of the general manager of the group.

It's time to face it.

When she heard that she was allowed to go in, she let out a long breath, opened the door and walked in.

As soon as she entered the door, she didn't see the scene when she was still the project manager of smart manufacturing.

Seeing her coming, the general manager immediately got up from the desk and greeted her with a smile.

"Xiao Zhang, you are finally here. Come and sit here." The general manager led her to the sofa in the rest area.

Zhang Ling muttered in her heart.

The general manager in front of her was completely different from the armed escort who escorted her to the banquet when she got off work at noon.

Could it be that he is holding back some bigger conspiracy?
Anyway, she's not feeling well!

"Good!" Zhang Ling sat on the sofa in the rest area.

Watching the general manager personally brew a cup of coffee for her and bring it over, put it within her reach and said:
"I heard that you like to drink tea. I'm sorry, but unfortunately I don't have it here. Then I will wrong you and drink a cup of coffee I made myself. It should taste good! Try it."

Zhang Ling's eyes were even more surprised!

Could it be that she has always misunderstood the general manager?

This feeling has a bit of the flavor of Mr. Mi eating lunch.

But compared to Mr. Mi's skills, it's still a bit worse.

This may be the real unknown side of the general manager.

Zhang Ling was very clear-headed at this time.

She just touched the coffee cup with one hand and said:
"Thank you. General manager, I heard that you have something to do with me. Let's talk about business first."

"It's business! I can't buy you a cup of coffee alone? Xiao Zhang, you're overthinking." The general manager took a sip of coffee, swallowed and gestured, "Well, today's coffee has a unique taste. Xiao Zhang , give it a try."

Zhang Ling raised her hand and glanced at her watch. It was already past the prescribed working hours. She got up slowly and said:
"Since the general manager has nothing special to say, I still have a lot of business to deal with..."

The general manager of the group said indifferently:

"What's the rush? It's not too late to leave after drinking this cup of coffee. My management philosophy has always focused on combining work and rest. Sit, sit, and drink coffee."

Zhang Ling could only sit down again with a little helplessness, and took a sip of coffee as the general manager wanted.

Zhang Ling, who is not used to drinking, just feels that this coffee is no different from traditional Chinese medicine.

"Zhang Ling, do you have any relatives at the top of the group?" The general manager suddenly asked.

"Ah! Why do you ask, General Manager?" Zhang Ling was a little surprised.

She really didn't understand why the general manager asked this question?
The general manager of the group then said with a smile:

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, just chat as normal. It's nothing."

Looking at the appearance of the general manager, Zhang Ling didn't seem to be chatting at all, but more like trying to get some information from her.

indeed!

She was suddenly appointed as the vice president of the group in advance like an airborne.

Never before in the history of the group.

It is inevitable that people will misunderstand that the group's senior management has some kind of strong backing from Zhang Ling.

"Did the general manager hear any rumors?" Zhang Ling asked suspiciously.

All she could think of was that someone was spreading rumors to slander her again.

"Rumors?" the group manager said with a smile, "There are no rumors. It's just a chat between us. Don't get me wrong!"

"Oh."

She knows that when she speaks about lunch frankly now, she will probably offend Mr. Mi, which will definitely arouse the anger of the general manager of the group.

She felt that she would have to face this kind of thing sooner or later.

It's better to take this opportunity to say it now.

She regarded the coffee in front of her as wine and drank it all in one go, saying:
"General Manager, there is something that I feel is necessary to inform you in advance."

The general manager of the group thought that Zhang Ling was going to confess to the top management of the group who was her backer.

He looked at Zhang Ling with great interest and said:
"You speak, I'm listening."

"I'm sorry, the general manager. I probably offended Mr. Mi at his lunch invitation."

She summoned up great courage to finish speaking, bowed her head and waited for the storm from the general manager.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

It turns out that waiting to be reprimanded is a great torment.

Seeing that half a minute had passed, there was still no sound of angry reprimand from the general manager of the group.

She is weird!

Even if the general manager of the group is brewing feelings of reprimand, such a long time should be enough.

In fact, what she didn't know was that the general manager of the group was also in a difficult situation at this time.

Because he's weighing the pros and cons of offending an unknown boss versus offending ignorant colleagues and subordinates.

The general manager of the group finally said:

"Oh, haha, it's okay. In fact, I have the same opinion as you, and I prefer to cooperate with Zhihua Technology. After all, it is a local company and everything is easy to communicate with."
