obsessed with love

Chapter 156 Contrary to common sense
And Ren Peiyin, she actually thought of such an extreme method to force her daughter-in-law to find a woman to give birth to her son. One can imagine how much she wants a grandson.

What's more terrible is Du Ruo!
The most dangerous relationship is like Qiao Anming's, who is suppressed in his heart, but his emotions don't allow it. When he suffers, the other party also suffers.

He was able to go to her without hesitation in today's situation. Although he didn't do anything too far away, it was just a shallow hug. It didn't seem like a big deal to outsiders, but it was different to him.He knew in his heart what this hug meant, that he could finally lose control of himself, that it was a beginning, and a deeper and deeper addiction.

Qiao Anming closed his eyes bitterly and tiredly, walked over and closed the window gently.

As soon as he lay down on the bed, Gu Lan, who was sleeping next to him, moved, and then leaned over, holding his arm with one hand, and slowly reaching into his pajamas with the other hand...

His nerves stagnated for no reason, but Gu Lan's greasy voice sounded immediately: "An Ming, I'm sorry, I don't want to do that about the contract either... I know that mom has wanted a grandson for so many years, I'm at fault, My body doesn't allow me to give birth, but do you know that I hate myself more than anyone else, I hate that I can't bear a child for you..."

When she said these words, she never opened her eyes. She just buried her head in Qiao Anming's chest and rubbed it lightly, like a cat that made a mistake and begged for mercy.

Qiao Anming felt helpless, he didn't know who was responsible for this matter, Ren Peiyin's?No, she was just a widowed old man. She wanted a grandson. This request was not too much. If she was to say that she was wrong, it was probably just that she adopted such an extreme method regardless of the consequences.

Is that Gu Lan's responsibility?What's more, she can't decide on her body. For so many years, while she has to bear the pain caused by her body, she also has to bear the psychological burden caused by "no child". Being on the cusp of the crisis, there is no one to talk about when he is full of grievances. This is one of the reasons why Qiao Anming insists on not having children.

Whose responsibility is that?

Qiao Anming finally stretched out an arm and took Gu Lan to his shoulder, and a low voice slowly sounded: "Don't blame yourself, I have said many times about the child, I don't need it, it's not because of your body, It's that I really don't want children, even if you are healthy, maybe I will choose not to have children."

Gu Lan happily raised her head from his shoulder, with tears in her eyes, but asked, "Really? You really don't like children?"

"Really, when have I lied to you?" He smiled lightly, and took her head back to his chest.

Isn't there a saying that when it comes to lying, the highest skill is to tell the truth from the beginning to the end, let the truth rot in her stomach, make her think that he really doesn't want children, and after a long time, the lie will become true.

Gu Lan's crying was aroused by his words, and he sobbed densely, with a few unstructured words: "An Ming... I'm afraid, I'm afraid that you really have children with other women. In this world, I You are the only family member left. If even you have to leave me, I guess I will not be able to live. I am really in pain about the child. I don’t know what to do. It seems that whatever I do is wrong. But as a wife, I can't even fulfill this responsibility... An Ming, I really don't deserve to be Mrs. Qiao..."

Her speech was extremely slow and her words were scattered, but they were full of obvious grievances and pains.

In fact, Qiao Anming didn't listen to a few words. For the sake of the child for so many years, this is not the first time that Gu Lan hid in his arms and cried. He used to comfort her wholeheartedly and tried every means to make her calm down, but today he did nothing. She just fiddled with the short hair on top of her head with her fingers, without saying a word, and stared blankly at the ceiling above her head.

It's not that Qiao Anming doesn't understand Gu Lan's meaning, he simply understands it deeply, he knows that she doesn't want a child in her heart, she wants to occupy him for the rest of her life, exclusive, cuddly, obsessive, who made him promise to be her only one? God!

For 20 years, the only thing Gu Lan has been doing is to let herself grow into a pool of moss, which is densely attached to Qiao Anming, the rock, so that she cannot leave him, and he cannot leave herself.

Although some things like a sense of responsibility are innate, most of them are acquired.

Gu Lan has spent 20 years cultivating Qiao Anming's sense of responsibility. Now it seems that she has done very successfully, because he is holding Gu Lan in his arms at the moment, thinking of Du Ruo's face in his heart, but reason is gradually gathering and occupying, and finally overcomes emotion , Patted myself again: Qiao Anming, you can't do anything to sorry Gu Lan again!
During the next two days of training, Du Ruo's thoughts flew to the sky, waiting every day for Qiao Anming to appear suddenly, or to send her a text message suddenly, or even just a few words.

But on the last day, nothing came of it, as if what happened that night was a dream, but two consecutive hugs, the temperature was so real that she couldn't lie to herself, how could it be a dream!
I finally made it to the last day. According to the training itinerary, I visited the scientific research center of Shengan Pharmaceutical in the suburbs in the morning and returned to the headquarters in the afternoon. That is to say, the training place in the afternoon was in the training room of Shengan Building.

Du Ruo checked out of the room early in the morning, dragged his luggage and followed the team to the scientific research center.

Shengan's scientific research center is well-known in the industry. When it was first built, it specially hired foreign architects to design it. It covers an area of ​​8000 square meters. The main building is a 7-story office building. The lawn is like a vast ocean. The blue hull and black mast exude an atmosphere of forge ahead, and at the same time, it also shows Qiao Anming's ambition. He wants Shengan to soar in this vast ocean and become an eternal The sunken ship.

Du Ruo got off the bus with her colleagues, walked in through the main gate, first registered at the gate guard and received the tour clothes. She took advantage of the gap between colleagues changing clothes and looked out from the changing room. There is a large green area around the R&D center building The space, the magnificent buildings and such wonderful scenery echo each other, giving people a strong visual impact and shocking force.

She took a breath, and suddenly remembered Qiao Anming's face.

He has so much, and he must bear so much at the same time. Of course he has this identity and this right. He speaks little or even nothing, leaving everyone with a lonely face.

The whole visit was shocking.

Although I have heard how magnificent Shengan's scientific research center is, I am still shocked when I am in it.

The reception staff of the scientific research center walked in the front and introduced along the way, while Du Ruo followed at the end of the army, and the more he listened, the colder his heart became.

"...Sinan's scientific research center was officially recognized as a provincial-level enterprise technology research and development center by the Provincial Department of Science and Technology and the Provincial Department of Finance last year. Platform, Provincial Key Laboratory of Western Medicine Preparations, Provincial Pharmaceutical Preparations Engineering Technology Research Center, Nationally Recognized Postdoctoral Workstation...Sunan has also been actively introducing and cultivating talents. At present, the entire center employs 5 doctors, 18 masters, and other personnel are all Well-known medical colleges and universities in China have a bachelor’s degree or above, so Shengan’s R&D center is a highly educated, high-level, highly competitive and efficient R&D team..."

Colleagues around me talked a lot, expressing admiration from time to time with a tone of admiration. Of course, their admiration was limited to the strength of Shengan. In their eyes, Shengan was just a huge private pharmaceutical company. Thinking of Shengan, Everyone only thinks of medicine, but Du Ruo is different from them. When she thinks of Sheng'an, the first thing she thinks of is "Qiao Anming".

Such a huge pharmaceutical kingdom was established by him alone. The man who is so restrained that he is almost different from normal people, in the eyes of everyone, he is synonymous with "God", but it is different for her, Du Ruo. In the hug that night, she got a glimpse of his fragile and tired side, he was just a normal man, exhausted and stressed, he couldn't escape anything.

Looking at everything around him in a blink of an eye, Du Ruo's heart began to ache intensively, feeling sorry for him, no wonder he never smiled, because it is possible for one person to support such a large enterprise to smile!

Lunch is settled in the scientific research center, a very ordinary working meal, crowded in the cafeteria like the employees in the center.

Surrounded by colleagues’ opinions and testimonials on this visit, it is nothing more than that Shengan’s strength is so strong, and the scale of the scientific research center is so large. A bunch of people gathered together to talk about it, and finally someone mentioned “Qiao Anming”.

Du Ruo's ears are already very sensitive to these three words, so whenever someone mentions it, she immediately pricks up her ears to listen.

"...I heard that Qiao Anming's family background is ordinary, and he all relied on his father-in-law... Back then, his father-in-law seemed to be the head of the Food and Drug Administration. Otherwise, how could such a large pharmaceutical factory be established by himself!"

"I've also heard, and I also heard that his wife's health is very poor, recuperating at home all year round, rarely showing up..."

"Tsk tsk... I guess he married his wife because of her family background, otherwise, who would want to marry a tuberculosis..."

"But then again, he has a good reputation in the industry, his private life is clean, and he has absolutely no bad habits. It's rare to have such a big business!"

"Yeah... Besides, it doesn't necessarily depend on his father-in-law. It is said that Sheng'an was a small pharmaceutical factory at the beginning, like a workshop. Later, it gradually developed and gradually annexed some small pharmaceutical factories that were difficult to survive. Then, when it encountered reforms, state-owned enterprises Restructuring, he has a ruthless wrist and a vicious vision, and he bought several large state-owned pharmaceutical companies one after another, and slowly got to the current scale!"

"So, Qiao Anming's family history can be regarded as an inspirational drama. No one succeeds for no reason, there is always sacrifice!"

"That's right, and I also heard from an old employee of Shengan that Qiao Anming is a workaholic and has no hobbies in life. For such a person, no matter how much money he earns, he has no time to enjoy it, and he doesn't have a child to inherit it. What's the point of living like this... Hey...a strong man also has the difficulties of a strong man, the higher he climbs, the more tired he gets, and if one day he accidentally falls down, his body will be smashed to pieces!"

"That's natural, that's why he is so ruthless. In this society, big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp. He is not a big fish, he is simply a predator! So he should do everything for granted, and he can't make mistakes. One step, otherwise how could such a big Sheng'an survive!

……

Du Ruo couldn't stand listening anymore, her heart felt like it was being torn, and the pain was severe.

Last night he hugged himself to his chest, heart to heart, and she could hear his heavy breathing clearly. This is the kind of person who shoulders such a huge responsibility, and he can't even say that he is tired.

Du Ruo felt sorry for him.

When she was in Tongcheng, she only knew that he was the boss of Shengan, with thousands of employees and annual sales of tens of billions. These may seem scary, but when they are really spread before her eyes, they are just a bunch of numbers.

But she was in Chongzhou for 5 days, looking at the imprints of Sheng'an all over the city, being in these tangible buildings, the magnificent Sheng'an headquarters, the huge scientific research center now, and those places she has never been to , Shengan’s major subsidiaries with absolute holdings and shareholdings, as well as a full range of production bases all over the country, oral liquids, freeze-dried powder injections, water injections, tablets for external use, children’s medicines, chemical raw materials... and now Tongcheng The traditional Chinese medicine extraction production base...

His life is a large-scale industrial layout, a magnificent and proud career map... Du Ruo swallowed the cold soup in his mouth.

The discussions of the colleagues beside her were still going on, but she suddenly recognized the distance between herself and Qiao Anming, such a distant and realistic distance.

But at that time, Du Ruo would never have imagined that this "pharmaceutical tycoon" in others' mouths was ruthless and ambitious. One day, he would be willing to hand over the country he had worked so hard for half his life, just for Du Ruo alone. .

After leaving the scientific research center, Du Ruo was full of worries all the way.

She suddenly wanted to see Qiao Anming very much, wanted to see him very, very much, and wished she could run to his side immediately to see his cold masked face.

It took about half an hour from the suburbs to the urban area, and soon entered Sheng'an Road, the top company in the pharmaceutical kingdom, a 43-story high-end office building, and when you walk in, you will see a spacious and bright lobby, which is the same as Du Ruo who came here alone at night before. It was a completely different atmosphere that time, that time it was empty and cold, but now it is crowded with people, and there is a vigorous and busy atmosphere everywhere.

Someone from the headquarters had been waiting in the lobby and arranged for them to go to the training room.The training lasted only two hours, because the trainers from other cities had to catch a flight or a bus to go back.

Du Ruo sat dryly in the training room, with his eyes empty, staring at the word "Joe" in the address book with his mobile phone in a daze.

It was a strange feeling. The person she wanted to see was in the same building as her. Although she didn't know his exact location, she was sure that she was breathing the same air as him. She can bump into it just by turning a corner, but she wants to see it, but she dares not to see it, which is far away but close.

Qiao Anming didn't go to the company that morning.Assistant Peng called him early in the morning and asked him if he would show up for the training meeting on the last day. After thinking about it, he replied that he didn't need it.

He knew that if he showed up, he would meet Du Ruo. After what happened last night, he still hadn't figured out what expression and tone he would use to face her, so in the end he chose to escape without any hope.

Aunt Qin told the kitchen to prepare Qiao Anming's lunch early in the morning. It is once in a hundred years that my uncle eats lunch at home. Of course, she can't miss this rare opportunity to flatter her.

Gu Lan still slept until the sun was high according to the old habit, and when she got up and went downstairs, she saw Aunt Qin arranging flowers in the living room.

Aunt Qin turned her head to see Gu Lan, and said excitedly, "My uncle is in the study, and I haven't gone to the company yet."

She nodded lightly, put on a shawl and went back to the study.

The door of the study was closed, and he seemed to be on the phone inside.

"Yu Chu, there is a meeting in the afternoon, so I won't go to the training meeting. Let Jiang Lei speak a few words on my behalf... Well, I see, and there is no need to order food for me. I will go to the company after eating at home. ..."

Gu Lan pushed the door open and went in. Qiao Anming was leaning on the leather chair and rubbing his forehead.

"Tired? Why didn't you go to the company today?" Gu Lan asked.

Seeing Gu Lan walk in, Qiao Anming straightened his upper body, hung up the phone in his hand on the landline and replied, "Last night I slept too late and I was a little tired, so I was lazy for a while, so it's rare to have lunch with you at home, don't you want it?"

"Yes, of course." Gu Lan walked over quickly with her shawl folded, and coquettishly complained: "It's a once in a thousand years, Mr. Qiao actually stays with me at home during non-weekends...Is it because of what happened yesterday?"

"No, you're thinking too much." Qiao Anming pulled her to his side, and returned to her usual gentle appearance: "I just didn't have a schedule this morning, and I went to bed late, so I might as well stay at home for a meal."

"Then over there... did you call her?"

"No need, what she did this time is too much, let her think about it for a while, if she can't figure it out by herself, it won't help me to say more." Qiao Anming's expression was indifferent, and Du Ruo sighed for Ren Peiyin. Speaking: "Mom did this for our consideration, and I understand her thoughts. Although her actions were a little too much, her original intentions are good and can be forgiven."

"Thanks to your generosity, you can forgive me." Qiao Anming was finally amused by her, and patted her hand with a smile, with a rare relaxed smile on his face.

Infected by him, Gu Lan also smiled, and saw that he lowered his head to work again, so he stopped disturbing him, so he walked to the door of the study, suddenly remembered something, turned back again and asked: "An Ming, there is something I always forgot to tell you that the hospital undertaken by the Lanwang Foundation is about to open, and because I am the legal person of the hospital, Assistant Peng asked me to set a date for opening the ribbon-cutting ribbon."

Qiao Anming flipped through the schedule at hand, and it was fully booked in the past three months, so he could only reply with apology: "I've been too busy recently, why don't you set a date with Peng Yuchu, and I won't be there by then." You must have time to participate, you can go, if you don't have the energy to do it, you can ask Jiang Lei to coordinate."

Lanwang Fund is a non-public fund that Qiao Anming established for Gu Lan a few years ago. It specializes in helping children in China who suffer from congenital heart disease like Gu Lan. The original intention of setting up the fund was to satisfy Gu Lan's whim.

She was too free and had nothing to rely on all day long. One day, she suddenly wanted to help children who were sick like her, so just mentioning it, Qiao Anming set up a fund for her, hung it under the name of Shengan, named it Lanwang, following the meaning of "Gu Lan's hope".

Although the legal person of the fund is Gu Lan, she rarely goes there. Qiao Anming also expected that she would not have the ability and long-term intentions to manage the fund, so she hired a professional financial management team and managers to run it.

However, setting up a fund for a pharmaceutical company is a matter of fame and fortune. Although Qiao Anming does not want to make money through the Lanwang Fund, he will not refuse to fight for the benefits that are due to him.

Qiao Anming is too smart, knows the truth that things must go against each other, and also understands that once a company reaches a certain scale, it will go downhill if it goes downhill, so from the establishment of the Lanwang Fund to the investment in the establishment of the first non-profit heart rescue private hospital in China, in the eyes of outsiders Such a move may just be Qiao always smiling for Mrs. Bo, but only he himself understands the essential intention.

His ambition is so great that he does not stick to the report figures at the sales meeting at the end of each year. What he wants to strive for is fame and fortune. Therefore, in recent years, Shengan has become enthusiastic about public welfare. Every year, it will allocate funds to some mountainous areas. Donate drugs and money in the name of Silkan, and even Silkan has a special fund to help those special cases.

His vision is to let Shengan get rid of the word "drug dealer", and build a good image in front of the public while making money. Through these public welfare means, let Shengan penetrate into the market and the organization, and become a veritable leader in the entire pharmaceutical industry. "King", and to achieve this vision, the best weapons are word of mouth and influence. Although some money needs to be allocated, what is gained is far more than what is lost.

It's just that Gu Lan naturally doesn't understand Qiao Anming's ambitions. She was once moved by him to set up a fund for herself. Seeing that he is so busy now, she doesn't want to pester him anymore, so she smiled and replied: "Then you don't have time, I will Discuss with Assistant Peng, Jiang Lei can help me too, that's all right, go ahead and call you during dinner." Then he closed the door and walked out.

This is already the second time Du Ruo sneaked out of the training room.

She has found out that Qiao Anming didn't come to the company this morning, and he will come in the afternoon. According to what she knows about him, if there is no major incident, he will not be innocent and not come to work.

Although Du Ruo didn't know exactly what happened at his house, but given his expression and tone last night, what happened at his house was definitely not a good thing, and he didn't come to work for a long time innocently, Du Ruo was worried for no reason, so he was in a hurry Besides, I really want to see him.

Taking advantage of the gap in training, Du Ruo sent Qiao Anming a text message, but he didn't reply, and she couldn't interrupt her frequently, so she could only sneak out to see if she was lucky enough to see him, but there are so many floors in the entire headquarters, it takes It's so easy to meet, many old employees who have worked in Sheng'an for several years may not be able to meet Qiao Anming, why can she meet him just around the corner, so she went to the top floor, Qiao Anming's office with the cheek.

Coming out of the elevator is a long corridor, with floor-to-ceiling glass on one side, a blue sky full of eyes when you look up, and a noisy street spreading on the lower side, while photos are neatly hung on the other wall, from the first store in Shengan From the opening of the factory to the completion of the latest Tongcheng traditional Chinese medicine base, she recorded Shengan’s growth process with video, and she can often find Qiao Anming’s face in the photos. From the heroic youth to the cold and lonely Qiao Anming, Du Ruo stood there, spying on his half life, and began to feel pain in his heart again.

"Miss Du, why are you here?"

Suddenly there was a voice behind him, Du Ruo turned around quickly, and saw that it was Peng Yuchu who came, followed by an old woman with a cold expression, she hurriedly replied: "I... I just walked around and came here."

"It's the wrong floor. This is the top floor. Mr. Qiao's office. The training room is on the 37th floor. You can take the staff elevator over there."

"Oh, okay, I..." She obviously couldn't express her words, and her panic was written all over her face.

She didn't go to the wrong floor at all, she came to see Qiao Anming, but she couldn't tell because she didn't have the identity and the right to see him.

Du Ruo raised his eyes and looked at the closed door in front of him, thick dark purple sandalwood, maybe he was sitting inside right now, separated from her by the door, but she had no right to walk in.

This was the first time in their long entanglement career that Du Ruo had tasted the pain of "meeting each other without the right to see each other" and the pain of disparity in status and status.

"Miss Du? Miss Du?" Peng Yuchu saw that Du Ruo had no intention of leaving, and kindly reminded him again: "The training is coming to an end soon, and Mr. Qiao is probably coming soon, you should go down first."

"Mr. Qiao hasn't come yet?" She asked quickly, unable to control her tone and emotions. As soon as she asked, Peng Yuchu in front of her and the woman behind him were obviously taken aback. Du Ruo realized that she had lost her composure, and quickly made up for it: "I heard from my colleague that he didn't come to work in the morning, so I just asked casually, hehe... I'm going down..." Then he walked into the elevator as if fleeing, leaving behind two inquiring gazes.

After Du Ruo left, Ren Peiyin still stood there looking at her back in a daze, and Peng Yuchu asked respectfully, "Old lady Qiao, you should wait for him in the office of President Qiao, Xiao Zhang said that he is already on his way to the company. "

Ren Peiyin moved her feet, but suddenly asked, "Who was that woman just now?"

Peng Yuchu was taken aback by her sudden question: "Which woman are you talking about? The one who went to the wrong floor just now?"

"Well, just her, who?"

"Her name is Du Ruo, and she is a salesperson at Tongcheng Traditional Chinese Medicine Base, one of the trainees this time."

"Tongcheng?" Ren Peiyin seemed to be muttering to herself, her eyes were well-read, but she couldn't see any emotion at all, but she was sneering in her heart, went to the wrong floor?This is not a maze, how could a girl like her suddenly go to the wrong floor, and it was the top floor!

Qiao Anming received a text message from Du Ruo on the way home. She asked him, "Will you come to training today?"

He didn't reply, and she sent another message a few minutes later: "Are you busy? Someone said you didn't come to the company this morning."

He still didn't reply, and there was no sound after that, so he let out a sigh of relief and put the phone in his pocket.

When I first arrived at the entrance of the company, I received a call from Peng Yuchu. Lafayette came to Sheng'an and was sitting in his office waiting for him!Qiao Anming's mood that had just calmed down became gloomy again.

He took the special elevator all the way up, and as soon as he stepped into the corridor, he saw the door of the office was open. He took a breath in his heart and walked in. Ren Peiyin was sitting on the sofa, holding a cup of tea in his hand, and was slowly drinking it.

He was not polite, walked directly in front of her, sat on the chair, turned on the computer, took off his coat, hung up the phone and asked Peng Yuchu to send a meeting notice, and when everything was ready, he freed his hands, looked at his watch, and said coldly: " I have a meeting at 3 o'clock, and you have 10 minutes..." That tone was so cold that it didn't look like a mother and child.

Ren Peiyin has long been used to her son's temper. Since she was a child, he has become more calm when things get bigger. Sometimes even her mother can't help but sigh, what kind of self-discipline and restraint she has taught her son!

So she was not annoyed, put the teacup on the table, slowly raised her head and asked, "I don't need 10 minutes, I just want to see you, just ask you a word."

Qiao Anming stared at the computer screen all the time, and said unbiasedly: "Okay, you can ask."

"Well, I just want you to say something, did you sign the contract yesterday or not?"

Qiao Anming finally turned his chair and looked at Ren Peiyin, frowned and replied, "You know I won't sign, so why bother?"

"Even Gu Lan agreed, why don't you sign it? Give me a reason?"

"There is no reason, if you don't sign, you don't sign. I don't want children. This is my answer! Even if you ask me a hundred times, I still have this answer!" His emotions were aroused again, his tone was too blunt and excited, even He himself feels that he has been too emotional recently, which is not good, so he suppressed his breath and said calmly: "That's the end of this matter, I don't want any of you to bring it up again, including the child's matter, and don't do it again in the future." carry!"

Qiao Anming didn't want to appease Ren Peiyin either. The phone on the table rang. He glanced at the screen of the phone. His calm face sank just now, but he didn't answer the ringing, he just picked up the phone. The landline on the phone, dialed a number, and asked, "When will the training end?"

"Three o'clock, there are still 10 minutes." Peng Yuchu replied.

"Today is the last day, will all the people from other provinces go back today?"

"Yes."

"Including people from the Tongcheng base?"

"Yes, the administrative department's room in the hotel was only booked until yesterday, and all the personnel trained in the morning have already checked out."

"Oh, I see……"

Qiao Anming hung up the landline, the phone on the table had already stopped ringing, leaving a number on the screen, he lowered his eyes and glanced at it again, momentarily gloomy, but quickly put away the phone, looked up and asked Ren Peiyin : "I'm going to the meeting room, how did you come here? Do you want me to arrange a driver to take you?"

Ren Peiyin looked at his determined eyes that could not be refuted, and replied viciously: "No need!"

Du Ruo sat in the front row of the training room. She deliberately chose such a conspicuous position. She wore a wine-red woolen dress and carefully made up, as if she was going to a banquet. In fact, she was only able to see clearly the person who might come in to give a speech. .

But after waiting for a long time, I didn't even see a shadow.

Seeing that the wall clock on the wall was approaching three o'clock, she also sent text messages and made phone calls, but there was still no response, what else could she do?In desperation, Jiang Lei's figure walked onto the stage, and soon there was applause, congratulating the successful conclusion of the training... In other words, she was leaving Chongzhou, but she did not see him again.

When leaving, all trainees can get a souvenir.

Du Ruo was the last one in line, with a sullen head and a heavy expression, he took the gift bag from the distributor.

Jiang Lei saw that she still giggled a few days ago, but today she suddenly looked sullen, so he politely walked over to ask a few words of concern: "Miss Du, the training is not to your liking?"

"Ah..." She used another particle in her tone, making Jiang Lei feel that she had too much to do.

"What? You've been in Chongzhou for five days, and you're still like this when you leave."

Du Ruo held the gift box and scratched his forehead with his hands. Seeing that she had no intention of continuing, Jiang Lei felt bored, so he quickly ended the topic: "Okay, everyone else is gone, goodbye, maybe Someday I will be transferred to Tongcheng, and I will have a chance to meet you at that time, Miss Du..."

Du Ruo said "Eh..." again, quickly said "goodbye" and walked out.

For some reason, Du Ruo always felt that Jiang Lei had a dangerous aura about him. Although he was always polite and unassuming, there seemed to be a cunning face hidden under his handsome eyebrows.

It is only 3 hours away from Chongzhou to Tongcheng, so Du Ruo chose to take a long-distance bus to go back.

When getting into the car, Du Ruo was still not reconciled, and sent another text message to Qiao Anming.

At that time, Qiao Anming was still in the meeting, and the screen of the mobile phone on the table was on. He looked down, quickly turned it off, and continued to devote himself to the boring and complicated meeting.

The last meeting ended at [-]:[-] pm. Qiao Anming took out his phone and turned it on after everyone left the conference room. There were three short words on the screen: "I'm leaving..."

The emotions that had been suppressed for a day seemed to be shattered by these three words in an instant. Qiao Anming put his palm on his head and fell heavily on the chair.

In the following week, Du Ruo hadn't contacted Qiao Anming. He seemed to disappear out of thin air. What happened to him?What happened?Du Ruo was a little flustered. She had seen him in such pain, so she was worried that he would be alone when he encountered problems.

She has experienced too much suffering of "isolation and helplessness", so even though she knew that she could not help him, Du Ruo still hoped that he would have someone by his side when he was sad. I made an excuse to go back to downtown Tongcheng.

Sister Mei was naturally very happy to see Du Ruo come to the company, and dragged her to interrogate her: "...Damn girl, I miss you so much, I finally know how to come back to see me... How is the base? Are you used to the life over there? ? Have you started running orders? Is the commission the same as our algorithm?…”

Du Ruo looked at Sister Mei's anxious look, and pulled her back to answer one by one: "I'm used to the life at the base. The mountains are good, the air is fresh, and the relationship between people and people around is also complicated. Those drug farmers are very enthusiastic. I didn’t start running orders, because the base has not yet started full production, and many traditional Chinese medicines are still in the research and development stage.”

Du Ruo answered very carefully, with a gentle tone and a humble attitude.

Sister Mei stared at her for a long time, and finally concluded: "Sure enough, one side of water and soil nurtures one side of people. How long have you been in Wumu Mountain? You can see that even the tone of your words is full of the aura of green mountains and green waters." !"

"Fuck you, are you hurting me or praising me?" Du Ruo took advantage of the situation to push her, and Sister Mei immediately thumped Du Ruo's shoulder jokingly: "That's right, this is the one I know Du Ruo, I was so flustered when I heard your gentle way of speaking just now... It's so unlike you, why do I feel like I have lived in the mountains for a while, and my whole person has changed..."

Du Ruo's heart skipped a beat immediately.

Sister Mei's eyes are notoriously venomous, and it's accurate to see people.She said she had changed, did she really change?
Seeing that Du Ruo stopped there suddenly and did not speak, Sister Mei patted her on the shoulder and persuaded her earnestly: "Okay, in fact, it's good for you to transfer to Wumu Mountain, not only for promotion and salary increase, but also for relaxation." , change the working environment, change a group of colleagues and friends, maybe you will quickly get out of the shadow of divorce..."

Du Ruo paused again. It turned out that Sister Mei only thought that her change was due to the divorce. She snorted softly and didn't explain, nor did she continue.

How do you want her to explain?She couldn't explain it anyway, she couldn't become like this by herself, was it because of Qiao Anming?

Gu Zizi smelled the breath of Du Ruo's return, and immediately walked in with arms folded, still wearing a short skirt in winter, holding a stack of contracts in her hand, walked up to Du Ruo nervously, and said delicately: "Yo... Team Leader Du drove back to the palace..." The sour sarcasm was clearly revealed, but Du Ruo was not annoyed, but just took it smoothly: "Yes, I have lived in the mountains for a long time, and I always come to the city to get some fresh air. Look at some people in this city, enjoying the fruits of others' hard work with peace of mind, don't they have a very happy life!"

"You!" Gu Zizi's arrogance was instantly extinguished by Du Ruo, and the word "you" stuck to her throat, and Du Ruo viciously pushed back: "What are you? If I hadn't left so many customers and orders for you, would you have been able to get me?" To be number one in sales? Dream it!"

"Okay, okay, it's rare to see each other to be noisy!" Sister Mei couldn't stand it anymore, walked between the two, raised her arms, and separated the two "beauties" in front of her, finally Gu Zizi breathed out her nostrils, coldly With a snort, she twisted her buttocks and flashed out.

Du Ruo stared at Gu Zizi's back and made a grimace: "Who is it, who actually has the face to take pride in front of me!"

"Okay, although we don't work together, we are colleagues anyway. Don't always pinch when you meet. Recently, she is a celebrity in the marketing department. She wears a miniskirt every day and frequently enters and exits the office upstairs..."

"upstairs?"

"It's Mr. Qiao's office. If you don't have anything to do to be courteous, you must have a plan."

Du Ruo gave a bitter smile, and murmured softly: "Impossible, the one upstairs is a saint, she can't succeed."

"What?" Sister Mei didn't hear clearly, but Du Ruo quickly stopped talking, "It's nothing, I'll just talk nonsense."

"Oh, then you came to the company suddenly, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing serious, just come and get a few old invoices, and come to see you by the way!" Du Ruo was silly and happy, and Sister Mei also liked it, and replied with a smile: "Then I am honored to ask Team Leader Du to come and see it in person. I!"

"You're poor, that's fine. I'll go to finance, and I'll go back straight away. I'm free to chat. My mobile phone number hasn't changed."

"Okay, you go up, see you later!" Sister Mei bid farewell to Du Ruo, watched her smile all the way, and quickly walked into the elevator.
