Successor: Prosperous Marriage

Chapter 142 Romantic Mountain Climbing
Su Xiaoxiao felt heavy in her heart for a moment, she really took that half-joking half-serious statement seriously.

In the afternoon of the next day, Zhan Yuliang gathered the heads of various departments together to start voting on the cooperation plan.

In fact, regarding this vote, Zhan Yuling is still uncertain. The company is basically run by Zhan Yuliang. Everyone is familiar with Zhan's cooperation philosophy, so it is unlikely that they will choose to cooperate with a new company like Yangzi of.

Sure enough, the result of the vote was as Zhan Yuling expected, only one fifth of the people supported his decision.

After the meeting was over, there were only the two brothers in the meeting room, and the atmosphere became very dignified.

"I believe that Wang's company will bring us surprises as always." Zhan Yuliang smiled and patted Zhan Yuling's shoulder. This action, in Zhan Yuling's view, became a kind of irony.

Zhan Yuling smiled coldly, "You are happy now, the result of the vote is as you wish, but it doesn't mean that I agree with your decision."

"Yu Ling, don't be like this, okay, we are for the benefit of the company and everyone, not my own." Zhan Yuliang said with a frown.

Zhan Yuling stood up, looked out the window, and said flatly, "Don't say anything now."

Zhan Yuliang sighed helplessly, and silently watched Zhan Yuling walk out of the meeting room without looking back.

After closing the office door, Zhan Yuling buried himself in the sofa and remained silent for a long time. In order to cooperate with Yangzi Company, he did a lot of homework. I poured a basin of cold water on it.

This ruined not only his hard work, but also their brotherhood.

"A Ling, what's wrong with you? Is it... voting..." Su Xiaoxiao walked over cautiously, squatted on the ground, and put her hands on Zhan Yuliang's knees.

Zhan Yuling smiled slightly, held Su Xiaoxiao's face in his hands and said, "Yes, my plan didn't go through, I'm just a little disappointed, it's nothing."

"Yes, everyone didn't approve of your plan this time. Let's try for the next time. There are still many opportunities, so it's okay." Su Xiaoxiao comforted. Even though she didn't approve of Zhan Yuling's risky decision, she still supported him at the moment.

"Okay, I will continue to work hard." Zhan Yuling smiled.

At this moment, Ouyang Qing pushed the door and walked in. Su Xiaoxiao stood up reflexively, and smiled awkwardly, "Ouyang, do you have something to do, then you talk, I'll print the materials."

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhan Yuling and left the office in a hurry.At this time, Ouyang Qing came here, it must be for the cooperation plan. It is easier for men to communicate, so she left the space for them.

As soon as Su Xiaoxiao went out, Ouyang Qing went straight to the topic, "Mr. Zhan, actually the result of the vote made me very angry. They were all on the side of Mr. Zhan. They didn't think about this issue seriously at all. It was indeed a kind of blindness." s Choice."

Ouyang Qing was one of the few supporters just now. Sitting in front of him now, Zhan Yuling was very grateful. He smiled slightly and said, "The dust has settled, let's Make up your mind, it's fine."

Ouyang Qing frowned and shook his head, "No, Mr. Zhan, do you know that many people, like us, support cooperation with Yangzi Company. After all, we have seen the rise of Yangzi Company in recent years. The reason why they choose Mrs. Wang, it's all about saving face for Vice President Zhan."

Zhan Yuling looked down at the table and didn't speak, but there was a ripple in his heart.

"Mr. Zhan, I also know that you have put in a lot of hard work for this cooperation, and no one is willing to let the results of your hard work go to waste, so I hope you don't give up, and I will always stand with you on the united front , persevere to the end."

Zhan Yuling suddenly raised his head and looked at Ouyang Qing's sincere face. He was very moved, but he smiled helplessly, "Forget it, everything has already happened, so let them do whatever they want, and wait until the next opportunity to talk about it." , thank you Ouyang."

"Wait until the next time. I don't know how long it will take for this opportunity. You also know that Yangzi Company has just emerged, and many people are waiting to cooperate with them. Maybe it will be our turn next time. It will be many years later, and we have missed it by then." It's the best time." Ouyang persuaded.

Zhan Yuling was very conflicted in his heart, but it was absolutely impossible for him to brazenly fight against Zhan Yuliang now.

Zhan Yuling took a deep breath, looked sideways at Ouyang Qing, "Forget it, the contract has already been signed."

There was a look of disappointment in Ouyang Qing's eyes, and he nodded helplessly, "Well, Mr. Zhan, you can come to me anytime if you need anything, and don't be too disappointed with this result, it's just a phenomenon, it doesn't mean anything."

Zhan Yuling nodded. At this moment, nothing reassured him more than these words.

After leaving the company, Zhan Yuling didn't call the driver, and drove Su Xiaoxiao around the city alone. His eyes were full of helplessness and disappointment, which made Su Xiaoxiao's heart ache.

"Stop." Su Xiaoxiao lightly pressed Zhan Yuling's hand holding the steering wheel, and said softly, "Stop wandering around, I'll take you somewhere, okay?"

Zhan Yuling frowned, "Where are you going?"

Su Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly, "Go to the northwest slope and climb the mountain."

"Mountain climbing?" Zhan Yuling asked with a frown. The word mountain climbing is already a kind of memory for him. For many years, he has not been able to integrate into nature. Looking back on his life, it seems to be A superficially gorgeous, but actually very helpless arrangement.

Su Xiaoxiao nodded, "Yes, after climbing the mountain, blowing the wind, and sweating all over your body, you will be very relaxed. Try it!"

Zhan Yuling raised the corners of his mouth, silently turned the car around, and drove towards the northwest slope of the outskirts of the city.

Ten minutes later, the two of them stood at the foot of the northwest slope. It was the end of summer, and the plants on the mountain had begun to change. Looking around, there was a piece of yellow, and the yellow was very layered, deep and shallow, Fascinating.

"A Ling, look over there, doesn't it look like a painting by Van Gogh?" Su Xiaoxiao made a viewfinder frame with both hands, squinted her eyes, and looked at the mountains and trees in the distance seriously.

Zhan Yuling was also moved by her, and looked at the "viewfinder frame" carefully, "It's really similar, we learned oil painting in high school, but I have no artistic talent since I was a child, and what I paint is not landscape , it’s basically a color palette.”

"Pfft—" Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing, her bulging cheeks were so cute that people couldn't help but want to reach out and poke them.

Su Xiaoxiao took Zhan Yuling's hand and pointed to the top of the mountain in the distance, "Look, our goal is there, climb up in one breath, don't stop breathing, okay?"

Zhan Yuling looked at the mountain top in the distance with some hesitation. This stretch of mountain really made him a little hesitant. After all, he hadn't climbed the mountain for many years. If he fell in front of a girl like Su Xiaoxiao, What a shame to lose the chain.

"Don't you dare?" Su Xiaoxiao folded her arms deliberately, making a provocative gesture.

Zhan Yuling pursed his lips, "Come as soon as you come." As he spoke, Zhan Yuling took off his shoes and socks, and stepped on the bluestone pavement with his bare feet, "I was also a long-distance running champion when I was in school , I don't believe that I will really lose to you."

"Okay, then let's compare!" After Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she also followed his example, took off her high heels, stretched her arms and started to prepare.

"Get ready-start!" Su Xiaoxiao gave an order, and the two of them ran towards the mountain.

The whistling mountain wind blows past the ears, and the cold bluestone slabs under the feet make a very natural foot spa for the soles of the feet, which is extremely comfortable.

Said it was a competition, the two kept holding hands, encouraged and supported each other, and sang popular songs from their school days together, running happily along the way.

Under the evening sun, Su Xiaoxiao's long hair fluttered, she was as beautiful as an angel who had fallen into the mortal world, and her smile moved Zhan Yuling's heart. This should be the most precious gift God gave him. It's so lucky to be together with paper-like girls.

An hour later, the two arrived at the finish line, standing on the top of the mountain, sweating, blowing the wind, almost drunk.

"Are you comfortable now? Are you happy?" Su Xiaoxiao asked loudly against the wind.

Zhan Yuling nodded vigorously, reached out to wipe the sweat off Su Xiaoxiao's forehead and cheeks, then turned around, and shouted into the distance, "Su Xiaoxiao, I love you, please promise me, give me a chance, let me Protect you forever!"

The voice was heard far and far away. Listening to the echo, Su Xiaoxiao looked at Zhan Yuling with tears in her eyes. An inexplicable excitement filled her chest. She also turned in that direction and shouted loudly, "Zhan Yuling, We're going to be together forever."

Zhan Yuling gently held Su Xiaoxiao in his arms, and said affectionately, "Xiaoxiao, thank you for accompanying me through the lowest moments. With you, I have nothing else to ask for."

"Don't, you still have a lot to pursue, but no matter what difficulties and setbacks you encounter, I will be by your side." Su Xiaoxiao raised her head and looked at Zhan Yuling's handsome face. Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be moved by the same handsomeness.

Zhan Yuling also lowered his head and looked at her affectionately, the time just froze.

Su Xiaoxiao's face turned red all of a sudden. Next, shouldn't there be an affectionate kiss?

However, Zhan Yuling did not possess her body, but patted her on the back lightly, his eyes drifted into the distance, "Xiaoxiao, sometimes I really want to go back to my childhood, carefree, I don’t have so many troubles, but it’s a pity I can’t go back.”

Su Xiaoxiao was so embarrassed that she pinched herself secretly, she was so self-indulgent, thinking of her shameless fantasy just now, she wished she could find a way to get in.
