Chapter 3 Rose Bubble OR Commercial War Cannon Fodder?
VOL.6
When I woke up the next morning, the rain had stopped, and Zheng Kaiqi had already left.The sky was clear outside the window, Zheng Kaiwen's car drove away at some point, only that area was still dry.The rain must have stopped when he left.I had a dream all night and was very tired.My body was covered with two layers of blankets, which must have been covered by Zheng Kaiqi when he left.
When I first arrived at the company, I saw a few female staff members whispering at the front desk. They saw me and hurried away.I was a little apprehensive, but when I walked to the public office area and saw that most people were still working with their heads down, I felt a little relieved.As soon as I put down my things in the office, I saw Zheng Kaiwen's secretary Anna walk in, knocked on my door and said, "Ms. Liang, Mr. Zheng asked you to go to his office as soon as you arrive."
"Okay." I was about to go out, but Anna's face darkened, and I asked, "What's wrong?"
Anna pulled me into the office, closed the door, and said, "Mr. Zheng came early in the morning. Although Mr. Zheng didn't give orders, I think you should be let in. But I don't know if Mr. Zheng is still there now." In the office, I think Ms. Liang should wait..."
I asked, "What happened?"
"I don't know either." Anna looked embarrassed.I know that as a secretary, the most taboo thing is talkative.
I said: "I have a sense of propriety, and it's fine if your words are heard." After I finished speaking, I still walked out.
As soon as I arrived at the door of Zheng Kaiwen's office, I heard voices coming from inside, and my heart suddenly became flustered. After a while, I heard clearly that it was Zheng Kaiwen's voice.
"At this time, you told me to stop! I have paid so much...how could I give up! If you were me, would you let go!"
"Kevin, listen to your father." I had never heard this voice before, and I was curious, so I couldn't help but get closer to listen.
"Stop talking!" Mr. Zheng yelled, almost deafening my ears. "All in all, I'll do it as I said. If you insist on going your own way, I'll give you an explanation at the board meeting. If you don't believe me, just give it a try." After leaving these words, the door suddenly opened with a bang.I took a step back abruptly, but was still bumped into by Mr. Zheng.
His face was full of anger, and his gray brows were kneaded into a ball.I could only lower my head and call out "Mr. Zheng". He lowered his eyebrows and looked at me, then left without looking back.The person following him must be the one who spoke just now.When I saw his face, I didn't like it very much. His face was treacherous with a half-smile, and the eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were seductive.
But this man has been following Mr. Zheng, like a watchdog. I despise a dog but also have to look at the owner.
Just as I was fascinated, there was a sudden sound of beating in the room.Anna, who had just returned to her seat, was startled and stood up abruptly.I waved to her, pushed the door open and walked in.
The paper, pencils and documents in the room were scattered all over the floor, and the large vase filled with picture scrolls by the table fell to the ground. Fortunately, the carpet on the floor was not broken.But the picture scrolls and scrolls were scattered all over the floor, Zheng Kaiwen took two steps back straightly, his shoulders fluctuated, and his back was turned to the door.
It seems very angry!
I looked at Zheng Kaiwen's back, feeling very uncomfortable.
Hearing me come in, he shouted without looking back: "Get out!"
I didn't move, he turned around and was about to get angry when he saw me, his face softened a little, he was silent for a while and said: "I want to be alone for a while." Said: "Come out with me for a while." Before I could answer, I took the coat on the hanger and left.
I slammed the door, gave Anna a wink to signal her to go in and tidy up the room, and hurriedly followed Zheng Kaiwen out.
The sky became gray again, as if it didn't know when it would rain again.
I followed Zheng Kaiwen all the way out of the building, and he walked silently in front, the hem of his dark gray coat swaying slightly with his steps.I was wearing a light-colored skirt and shivering with cold behind him.We just walked silently one after the other, we don't know how long we walked, and we don't know how far we walked.When he suddenly raised his head, he was already in Admiralty.
The moment I lost my mind, Zheng Kaiwen suddenly disappeared.
I panicked for a moment. There were crowds of people everywhere. I pushed aside the crowd to look for it. I didn't care about the pain in my feet, and I didn't feel cold. Instead, I was sweating.
If he disappears...if he disappears...
What should I do if he disappears suddenly like Jiang Yang?The more I thought about it, the more scared I became. Where did he go?Suddenly, I saw his back appearing at the sign of the subway station. I hurried out of the road and was scolded by the oncoming driver who slammed on the brakes. I apologized repeatedly and ran towards the subway station without looking back.When I got off the escalator, I saw him standing in a daze at the place where the ticket was bought. I could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
He glanced at me, and I knowingly took out the only change I had on me and gave it to him.He bought a ticket at the vending machine, turned and walked towards the subway station.I hurriedly bought a ticket and followed him. The subway entered the station quickly, and he stepped on the train.Pricked by the subway door that was about to close, he clutched his shoulder and slipped in.Passengers all around looked at me.
He leaned against the automatic door, looked out of the car, and didn't notice me.
I couldn't help but smile wryly in my heart, it's really a born cheap life.After finally getting rid of the eccentric Jiang Yang, he met such a difficult boss again.I stood on the armrest not far behind him, carefully observing his every move.He got off the car, I got off with him, he walked to the road, and I went to the street with him.Then he walked to a ticket office, and I looked up, and it was a ferry across the sea.
He took out the thousand-yuan bills in his wallet, bought a boat ticket, and turned around and walked into the pier.I searched all over my body, but I didn't even have enough money for a boat ticket.I watched him gradually move away from me, anxiety and uneasiness rose from the bottom of my heart, and I suddenly understood that I was so unwilling to be alone again.
So how can I leave him alone, he kept me by my side when I was the most helpless and down, and gave me a chance to start again, and I must never leave him when he was in trouble.No, at any time, I will never leave him alone again.
Yes, anytime.
So I followed him into the Zhajikou without thinking.
The ticket inspector stopped me and said, "Miss, where is your ticket?" I begged him with my hands together, and said repeatedly: "I will make up the ticket when I come back. I don't have any money with me, really. I have something urgent now, please." Let me in." As I said, my eyes kept looking at Zheng Kaiwen.The ticket inspector saw my distressed appearance, followed my gaze to look into the distance, and said, "Then remember to make up the fare when you come back."
I thank God and wish I could kowtow to him.Then he rushed to the ferry, found Zheng Kaiwen in the dark crowd, took the seat behind him and sat down.
As soon as the boat left, the sea breeze blew in from all sides of the ferry.I moved in, hugged my arms and rubbed them gently.The man sitting next to me looked at me with very strange eyes, and I grinned at him.The mother-in-law sitting on the other side of me suddenly said: "Miss, if you want to look good, you can't just wear it like this. Are you shooting commercials or movies?" I shook my head at her, and the old woman murmured helplessly: "Young people nowadays don't know what to think now. They wear so little and are not afraid of the cold."
I was in a state of misery, thinking that I was about to freeze to death, what kind of movie should I be filming... when will the boat dock.
After finally waiting for the boat to dock, everyone else disembarked, but Zheng Kaiwen was still sitting there lost in thought.I couldn't help complaining again and again, I fully experienced the hunger and cold of the little match girl at this moment.Although I don't know what this person is thinking, but I can understand his feelings.
He wants me to accompany him, so even if he intends to sit on the ferry until he turns white, I will accompany him.
A piece of news suddenly appeared on the TV on the ferry, and the female anchor said in a crisp voice: "This afternoon, the spokesperson of the Zheng Group suddenly issued a statement that he will not participate in the bidding for Shanghai Bund No. [-]. This cannot help but It is strange that the Zheng Group has been actively participating in the bidding activities for Land No. [-]. The investment in this project is also very considerable..."
I was stunned suddenly, it turned out to be like this.
No wonder he was so depressed, it turned out to be the case.
Kevin Cheng flew to Shanghai a year ago, and then brought me to Hong Kong. All of this was for the Three on the Bund project.Yeah, I know.For this reason, he even set up a project team and invited top architects, actuaries, and engineers in Hong Kong with high salaries... This investment is enough for me to live happily for two lifetimes.
But now, it's all over.
How could he not be depressed, if it was me, I might as well commit suicide by jumping into the sea.
When he saw the news on TV, he stood up suddenly and walked all the way to the railing of the ferry.At this time, a guest came on board, and I hurriedly pushed through the crowd and chased after him. When I saw him lying on the railing, my heart tightened, and I quickly walked to him and stopped.
He's not going to jump into the sea, I'm just thinking about it...it won't be so accurate.
Fortunately, he didn't move, just lying there in a daze.
The sea breeze blew on my face, and it still hurt like a knife at first, but now I don't feel it anymore.
On the other side, the neon lights first came on, the sky was gloomy, and the drizzle was slowly falling.
"Actually, I was just a little bit closer. I almost succeeded." He suddenly said, as if he was talking to himself: "But they didn't give me a chance, not even the last chance." He smiled wryly Ask me back: "Do you think I am useless?"
"No." I shook my head dully, my limbs were so numb from the cold, and my tongue became inflexible when I spoke.
He turned to look at me, his eyes were more gloomy than the sky, and then he tried hard to bend the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't form a smile in the end. "Sorry." He said softly.My heart seemed to be grabbed by someone hard, and it hurt for a while.His eyes were astringent, and he was afraid that he would shed tears if he didn't live up to his expectations.
I shook my head, choked up a bit, and said, "You don't have to tell me you're sorry, you paid my salary."
"I invited you here for the project of No. [-] on the Bund in Shanghai. You have worked hard for so long, spent so much energy, invested so much money and manpower, but now it is all in vain. It is just a futile effort." .I can't do anything but say sorry to you."
I still shook my head, my eyes were hot and wet.
Not only because I was once again facing the crisis of unemployment, but also because he said "I'm sorry".
He suddenly raised his hand to wipe the tears from my face.I was unconscious at first, but when he rubbed it lightly, I only felt a burning pain on my cheek.
He held my hand and said, "Why is your face so cold? Are you cold?"
I shook my head and nodded again, my mind was already muddled.He took off his coat and put it on me, tightened the neckline, and said softly: "Is it still cold?" Entered the ferry and found a corner seat to sit down.
I was held tightly in his arms, my heart was pounding, and suddenly I just wanted to lean on him like this, snuggle into his arms.I don't know if it's been too long since I've been hugged by a man like this, my whole body is burning hot.The faint smell of cologne on his body, his strong arms, and his chest wider than the sky.
"How did this happen?" I asked softly, "How did it happen so suddenly?"
"Actually, it wasn't sudden. I knew from the beginning that my father didn't agree with me to engage in this project." He wrapped me tightly in that dress and sighed.The warm breath hit my hair, itching. "So I kept it from him from the very beginning, including the deployment of personnel and the movement of funds. I have been very careful not to let him know, who knows or..."
"Then how did he know?" I asked, and suddenly felt extremely stupid.
That person is their father, who has given birth to such a capable son, and his father is not a cunning old cunning.Zheng Kaiwen looked down at me, suddenly smiled, and said, "If I say it's because of you, will you blame yourself?"
"Me?" I broke free from his arms suddenly and looked at him: "You said it was because of me?"
"Did Cage go to your house yesterday?"
I was taken aback by his question, speechless.
There was no trace of questioning in his tone, and he continued: "Cage belongs to my uncle. Uncle has always opposed me to engage in this project, and he knew that my father also disapproved of my plan, so he disclosed the news. Give it to Dad, lend him his hand to stop me."
I looked at him in disbelief, and couldn't believe that the big boy who laughed like a high school student would do such infernal things.
He uses me!
Burning with anger, my forehead slammed, and I felt that the blood in my whole body was rushing to the top of my head.
"You mean, Zheng Kaiqi went to my house last night to find information about this project?"
"I'm not sure, but maybe it is." He said: "Yesterday afternoon, my father suddenly called to test me about the project plan of No. [-] land. I didn't say anything. Then I was called to the office by my father I asked about this matter, I originally wanted to tell you that night, but thinking about it, there might be room for change. But I didn’t expect that I saw Cage go to your house..."
"Did you see it?" I was surprised.
It never occurred to me that yesterday's seemingly ordinary accident turned out to be such an intricate and meticulous layout.
"I see." He said lightly, "I saw him go in with you, and I saw you turn off the lights."
"us……"
Big misunderstanding.
But when I opened my mouth, I realized that I couldn't argue with anything.How can I make it clear?
"I know you didn't disclose the news to him, but Cage is not an idiot. How can he not get what he wants?" Zheng Kaiwen comforted me and said, "Uncle even planned it in advance, even if there was no yesterday's incident , They will still come to me today and prevent me from participating in the bidding. So, it's not your fault."
I turned my face away, the anger burning in my heart was like the fire of a steel furnace hardening my heart.
Hello Zheng Kaiqi!
He pretended to be innocent, and even treated me like a monkey.It's fine if you use me to plot against me, that's your own brother, and you actually play him along.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I became, and suddenly I couldn't help crying out of aggrievedness.Zheng Kaiwen put his arms around me, I leaned on his shoulder, and heard him say softly: "Don't think about it, I will take care of it." The voice was so soft and gentle, I suddenly felt a burst of exhaustion, infinite nostalgia fell asleep.
That night I had a dream, I dreamed of the lush cherry tree in front of the school.
At that time, Jiang Yang and I often dated under the cherry blossom tree.
In spring, the wind blows the shadows of the trees, and the cherry blossoms fall in pieces.
He kissed my lips lightly.
Then he suddenly took out a very ugly ceramic cup and said to me: "Birthday gift, don't throw it away." The poor cup looks like a deformity.
I laughed loudly and said, "You know it's ugly, and you know I'll throw it away." But I was stared at fiercely.
Later, although I hated it, I still happily insisted on using that cup, until one day, I accidentally broke it in the office.Later, I gradually understood that there are some things that you can only have once, and they cannot last forever.
Yan Xiaonan said that things like money come easy and go quickly, and love is the same.I proved her theory in practice, alas, I always defy myself.So now I am careful about everything that comes to me, such as work, such as friends, and love in the future.
I was afraid that if they came too quickly and easily, they would suddenly disappear from my side like Jiang Yang.
But now, work, life and Zheng Kaiwen are all far away from me.
VOL.7
I fell asleep in a daze, and I don't know how long it took.When I woke up, I saw the window was bright and clean, the white gauze was fluttering in front of the window, and the sky was never before blue.I raised my hand and rubbed my eyes, seeing that the room was neat and tidy, I thought I was not at home.Just confusedly thinking, where am I?Just as he groped to sit up, he heard the door lock click.
Zheng Kaiwen walked in with something in his hand.I was startled, and hurriedly pulled the sheet up to my neck, and blurted out: "Why are you at my house?" He looked at me and said, "I'm sick and confused." I looked at him and asked, "Am I sick?" He sat down by the bed, handed me a bowl of medicine in his hand and said, "You have a fever. I should have taken you to the hospital. But it's not a serious illness, so don't bother."
I looked at the dark thing in the bowl and smelled it: "What is this?"
"Cold tea, when I have a cold, the old servant at home often brews it for me. After a long time, I will cook it myself." He held my hand and said, "Drink it." I looked at the black tea He could only drink the stuff in one gulp, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Aren't we on the boat?"
"When I got off the boat, I felt hot on your body. I called you, but you didn't respond. So I had no choice but to take you back to your home. I took your temperature and it was almost 40 degrees." He stood up, I went to the table and took a thermometer and stuffed it into my mouth, and said: "Seeing that you are so sick and no one is taking care of you, I can't just let you die."
I looked down at my clothes, screamed ah, and said, "Did you change my clothes for me?"
"What are you making such a fuss about?" He picked up the thermometer I dropped on the quilt, wiped it with an alcohol cotton ball, stuffed it back into my mouth and said, "So what if I changed it. It's not like I haven't seen a woman before, Aren't you a woman? There's nothing I can't see."
I thought to myself: It is because you have seen too many women that this girl does not want you to see them.With the thermometer in his mouth, he couldn't speak, so he mumbled a few words.He took the thermometer away from my mouth and said, "Yan Xiaonan came here last night, and the clothes she changed for you."
"Xiao Nan has been here, where is she?" I excitedly got off the bed with my slippers, Zheng Kaiwen grabbed me and said, "She's gone, hurrying to start work. Your fever hasn't subsided yet, lie down." Said No matter what 21 stuffed me into the quilt, I curled up in the quilt like a kitten, stared at him with big innocent eyes and said, "How long have I been asleep?"
He looked at his watch and said, "Seven or eight hours, the recovery is pretty fast."
I shrank my neck and asked in a low voice, "Have you been here all this time?"
"What if you die of illness after I'm gone?" He smiled and said, "The trade union will definitely condemn me as an inhumane boss, and I think the whole of Hong Kong will condemn me. And you took care of me once when I was sick in Shanghai, Now we're even."
I snorted lightly, "You're really clear."
"Business, nothing else, don't you know how to settle accounts?"
I laughed angrily, and said vaguely, "What about the No. [-] project?"
Hearing this, he fell silent suddenly.He lowered his head and wiped the thermometer slowly, thinking for a long time before saying, "Don't worry about it, I'll take care of it."
A faint sentence, I don't know how much bitterness and pain it contains.The painstaking effort and energy he put into this project is probably only known to those of us who actually participated in it.How many days and nights are unavoidable, accompanied by eating, drinking, and smiling faces, and even need to ask for a loan from the bank...
He has to take this responsibility on his shoulders, which is a lot of responsibility.
I looked at his hand wiping the thermometer, the fingers were white and slender, and the knuckles were clear and prominent.I thought about how these hands had once been on my forehead, put their arms around my shoulders, and made cold tea for me, and I couldn't help but ask him in a low voice, "Mr. Zheng, are you okay?" ?”
He turned to look at me, twitched the corner of his mouth without a smile and said, "Do you think I'm alright?"
I also smiled at him, and said with a little sentimentality: "It's all my fault." He looked at me strangely, and I continued: "Fortune tellers say that my fate is hard. To build a company is to fail a company. Originally, I I did a good job in that advertising company, but you insisted on dragging me here, and now I have dragged down the project that caused you."
He deliberately opened his eyes wide and said: "You are so powerful, then I will arrange for you to go to my opponent's company."
We both laughed and he pulled the covers for me.The doorbell rang twice, and he said, "Maybe it's Yan Xiaonan, I'll open the door, and you lie down again." I nodded, reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes and asked, "Mr. Zheng, are you all right? He nodded confidently and said, "If you don't call me Mr. Zheng, I will be better off."
I let go, and heard him go out to open the door, the door lock clicked, and I was waiting for his response, but there was no sound for a long time.I couldn't help asking: "Who is it, is it Xiao Nan?" He didn't answer me, I waited and still didn't answer, so I ran out barefoot in my pajamas.
Once in the living room, I was dumbfounded.
The one standing outside the door was not Yan Xiaonan, but Zheng Kaiqi.
The two brothers stood facing each other across a door, and suddenly they all looked at me.Zheng Kaiqi's eyes were not surprised, but more questioning.I immediately felt furious, and I wanted to arrest him and ask him for punishment, but he himself came to the door.I was about to rush up, but Zheng Kaiwen went to the sofa and took the clothes, looked at me and said, "Then I'll go first, I bought something in the refrigerator. Remember to take medicine."
I gave a soft "hmm" and saw him enter the elevator, then I dragged Zheng Kaiqi and shouted: "Come in for me."
"Why is he at your house?" Zheng Kaiqi asked me suddenly.
I was out of breath, and because I was sick, I coughed twice before asking him with a sneer: "He found this house, he rented it, and he arranged it for me. Why can't he come here? You If you want to blame others, it is better to ask yourself first, you have not only been here, but also spent the night here."
As expected, his face darkened, very ugly, and he asked me coldly, "What do you mean by that?"
"I was going to ask you! What do you mean?" I pushed him hard, and he was suddenly pushed down on the sofa by me, half-up, stared at me and said, "I just saw that you didn't go to work today , so I came to see you with good intentions. Don’t treat yourself like a donkey with good intentions.”
I was so angry that my stomach cramped, and I said sarcastically: "You are so kind, you probably won't come here to spy again."
When I said the central thing, a trace of timidity flashed in his eyes, and he turned away from looking at me.
"I got it right." My heart ached for no reason.Grab his collar with both hands and push him out, shouting: "Get out, get out! I treat you as a friend, but you betrayed me! Find me for dinner, look at me kindly... It turns out that it is just Want to get information from me. What do you think of me! Friend? Stop laughing at me."
I had already shut him out of the door, but I was still screaming angrily.
He slammed on the door outside and shouted: "That's not the case! Luo Xin, you believe me, I didn't get any information from you at all. I really didn't... Yes, I originally wanted to get information from you Find something, but then I don't have it, I really don't have it."
"No, only ghosts will believe you." I yelled back loudly.
"I'm serious..." He stopped for a while, and I heard footsteps, presumably a neighbor just walked by, his words inevitably caused misunderstandings.After a while, he really said again: "I admit that I had some intentions to get close to you at the beginning, but what I said to you that day was true... Luo Xin... Can you open the door and listen to me... Luo Xin... Luo..."
"You've said enough, I don't want to hear it anymore." I clicked the door lock back.
He was still beating my anti-theft door vigorously outside the door, and his voice was ringing.I irritatedly covered my ears with a pillow, and suddenly the sound stopped.I thought my ostrich tactic worked, but when I removed the pillow, I realized that there was really no sound.
Suddenly he couldn't hear his shout, but panicked for a while, and hurried back to the door, watching his movements through the cat's eyes.But no one, I relieved myself that he was probably gone, and was about to turn around, but suddenly heard a bumping sound, and a woman's voice asked: "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
I hurriedly opened the door, and saw Zheng Kaiqi sitting on the ground leaning against the corner, pulling open his collar with one hand, and clutching the skirt tightly with the other, his chest was heaving violently, and he couldn't breathe.When the housewife next door saw me open the door, she hurriedly said, "He looks like he has an asthma attack. Miss, is he your friend?"
"Asthma?!" I grabbed Zheng Kaiqi with both hands, shook it vigorously and said, "Don't scare me, you are just kidding me."
I was in a cold sweat.
Seeing him in so much pain, my heart was also out of breath.He was trembling all over because he couldn't breathe, his face was flushed red, and he held my arm tightly with his right hand with amazing strength.I was anxious and flustered, if something happened to him, how would I explain it to Zheng Kaiwen.
The housewife next door was very calm, pulled me and said: "He has always had this disease, then he should have medicine on him." Suddenly, I hurriedly rummaged through his pockets for a while, and found one The bottle hurriedly asked: "Is it this?" He nodded with all his might, I hurriedly pulled off the cap and stuffed it into his mouth, and let him take two deep breaths, only to see his expression soften.
I was paralyzed, as if I was walking on the verge of life and death. The housewife scolded me and said: "What can I say to the young couple? If they are arguing through the door, the administrator will call 999. Go in. Let's talk." I didn't bother to explain to her, and after thanking her repeatedly, I helped Zheng Kaiqi into the room.
After letting him sit on the sofa, I poured him a glass of warm water, and he took a sip, and his complexion finally recovered.I patted myself on the heart and said, "I'm scared to death. How can you say that your disease just flares up, without any symptoms at all." He looked at me, suddenly smiled, and said, "Did I scare you just now?"
"It really scared me to death. I heard that asthma can kill people." I straightened his neckline, but he grabbed my hand and said, "You don't believe me."
I withdrew my hand and said, "How can I believe you? You just came to my house. Your father found my boss the next day and said that the project at No. You wouldn’t act so rashly. If it’s not you, who else leaked the news?”
He rolled my eyes at me and said, "You underestimate my father. He is definitely not the kind of person who will jump to judgment after hearing a word from others. And my uncle, besides me, he is beside my second brother. There are definitely no less than three eyeliners. Even if I really got some news from you, he would have known about it a long time ago."
My heart sank suddenly, what kind of family is this, they know fame and utilitarianism all day long.Even his own nephew is a computer, what kind of uncle is this.
"I think the reason why my second brother took you from Shanghai all the way is because you can trust him. Now he has to find someone he trusts, and it's not easy." I looked at him and sneered, "I didn't expect you to be a good substitute." Is your second brother thinking about it? You seem to know his thoughts."
"After all, we are blood brothers. And you are right, I made troubles against him... It didn't do me any good, and I also lost face to my family. So I think even if I can't do anything, at least I should settle down." Be careful, don't make trouble for the family. Trust me!"
I sighed with emotion, looked at him and said, "I believe in you, but you know how much trouble you have caused."
Maybe only I know that the consequences are unpredictable.
After the stop of the No. [-] project, my daily workload has been greatly reduced.Of course, the colleagues who worked on the No. [-] project with me have left the company one after another, and I am also waiting for the arrival of the white envelope.But waiting and waiting, a month passed, and nothing happened.
Just when I thought the matter was finally settled by Zheng Kaiwen, an unexpected visitor came to my office suddenly.
The brothers' uncle, Shao Tianyang.
He knocked on the door, then walked in and said, "Miss Liang, may I sit down?"
"Mr. Shao, sit down." I tried my best to put on a gentle expression, so as not to let him see how much I loathe this person's face.
But this hateful person looked at my empty desk and said sarcastically, "It seems that you have been quite free recently."
I have a high EQ, and I don't have the same knowledge as this kind of person.
"Does Mr. Shao have any orders?"
"Don't dare. You are Kevin's personal soldier, and I can't do anything about it."
He laughed selfishly, and I felt goosebumps all over my body when I heard it, but my heart ached.
It's been almost a week, and I can't find Zheng Kaiwen anywhere, and he won't answer my calls.Occasionally when I saw him in the company, he was in a meeting.He didn't look for me, and he turned a blind eye to me. I don't understand what happened.But, I'm worried...it's been so long, what happened to him?How much responsibility can that shoulder bear?
When I came back to my senses, there was already one more thing on the table.
white envelope.
What a dazzling white envelope.
I never expected that I got this white envelope from Shao Tianyang.
What happened to Zheng Kaiwen?
"This is a little bit of kindness from the company." He took out another envelope and said to me with a smile: "You have worked very hard these days. Kevin also feels very embarrassed. This is a small gesture..."
I stood up abruptly, picked up the heavy white envelope and asked him, "Did Zheng Kaiwen ask you to give it to me?"
"This is what the company means. Kevin is also a member of the company..."
I sneered and threw the white envelope on him: "I'm just a low-level employee, and these are too much severance pay. I can't afford it."
Shao Tianyang looked at me in embarrassment and said, "It's hard for me to do what you do."
"Mr. Shao, don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you." I took off my coat and purse from the hanger, picked up the dismissal letter on the table, and said, "I still have money to buy a plane ticket back to Shanghai, so don't worry about it." .”
I walked out of the office with my head held high, when I suddenly heard Shao Tianyang's voice behind me.
"Miss Liang, you really have a lot of backbone, but you can't take it for food if you have a backbone."
I looked back at his disgusting face, suppressed my anger, smiled at him without showing any weakness, and said, "Mr. Shao, I think that your backbone may have been eaten away Bar."
There was a burst of low laughter in the public area, Shao Tianyang's face was really uglier than a pig's liver.
Although he is Zheng Kaiwen's uncle no matter what, I shouldn't be so disrespectful, but this lady has always been a person who does not offend me, and I will not offend others. If you provoke me, I will definitely put the leftovers in your bowl.
I strode out of Zheng's Building, and the little expectation left in my heart dissipated.
Zheng Kaiwen can't protect himself now, how can he still have the ability to take care of me.No... I shouldn't have any expectations of him anymore, let alone want him to protect me. I'm his employee, that's all.Now we don't even have this level of relationship. From now on, we are just strangers.
"Luo Xin."
On the street, someone suddenly called my name so loudly.
My heart couldn't help a burst of excitement.
However, the person who rushed over to grab me was not Zheng Kaiwen, but Zheng Kaiqi.
I saw him sweating profusely, and I felt a little sad in my heart.
"Why are you running so fast, you are not afraid of another asthma attack, I am afraid of you." I joked and took out a tissue to wipe his sweat.
He didn't smile at all, and said seriously: "Are you leaving?"
I smiled and deliberately said frankly: "Everyone is gone, I should go too."
He anxiously sweated on his forehead: "But, you should at least wait for my second brother to come back and tell him. Don't you want to wait for him?"
"No need, he's just an employee of Huanyu Company. The white envelope is covered with the company's big red stamp. I have no reason to hold back." I tried my best to keep smiling, but the anxious, sad, and uneasy expression in his eyes She, these sincere feelings are causing my defenses to collapse little by little.
I lowered my eyelashes, smiled and said, "Don't worry about me, I can still find a job when I go back to Shanghai. Don't forget, I graduated with a master's degree, and I am so young and capable. Even if I can't find a promising job, I still can't find a job." To a promising husband?"
"But...but just like that you left..." He grabbed my wrist tightly, but refused to let go.
I interrupted him on purpose, afraid that he would say something that I couldn't bear, and this kind of sensational scene would make me, the unworthy Liang Luoxin, burst into tears.
"It's not that I'm dead, I still have a chance to meet you in the future. A two-hour flight from Shanghai to Hong Kong is enough."
He suddenly hugged me tightly, so hard that he almost squeezed out all the moisture in my chest cavity.I raised my chin and looked at the sky. The sun was shining hotly on my pupils. I thought the tears must have evaporated, but I didn't cry.
"I'm really useless. In the end, I couldn't even keep a friend."
"Cage, thank you." I pushed him away and held his hand: "In life, there are always many things that can't be done. If there is anything that goes wrong in the future, don't make trouble, call me Or come to see me in Shanghai, I will take you to eat delicious food, go shopping, meet beautiful girls..."
"When did you fly?"
"I don't know." I know what he wants to do, but I can't let him do it.
If I see Zheng Kaiwen again, maybe I don't even have the courage to leave, I will really stay here, even if I can only pick up garbage here, I will stay by his side.
yes i love him.
Although I don't know when it started, but I know that I have fallen hopelessly in love with Zheng Kaiwen and my "former" boss.
I'm sitting in the airport lobby with my suitcases next to me, no more than when I arrived.
In a few minutes before boarding, in the empty airport hall, all thoughts and memories rushed to my eyes in a flash.The first time I met Zheng Kaiwen, his bad expression, and my damn mineral water bottle... In the meeting room, the red PRADA... He was so sick and confused... I was kidnapped as his sister... in On Binjiang Avenue, his smile, his lonely back...that piano piece, what he said...that rainy night when he parked the car downstairs at my house...we were on the ferry...
Everything is like a dream.
If Cinderella really had a pair of crystal slippers, it turned out that I couldn't wear them.
I buried my face in my arms and wept uncontrollably.
(End of this chapter)
VOL.6
When I woke up the next morning, the rain had stopped, and Zheng Kaiqi had already left.The sky was clear outside the window, Zheng Kaiwen's car drove away at some point, only that area was still dry.The rain must have stopped when he left.I had a dream all night and was very tired.My body was covered with two layers of blankets, which must have been covered by Zheng Kaiqi when he left.
When I first arrived at the company, I saw a few female staff members whispering at the front desk. They saw me and hurried away.I was a little apprehensive, but when I walked to the public office area and saw that most people were still working with their heads down, I felt a little relieved.As soon as I put down my things in the office, I saw Zheng Kaiwen's secretary Anna walk in, knocked on my door and said, "Ms. Liang, Mr. Zheng asked you to go to his office as soon as you arrive."
"Okay." I was about to go out, but Anna's face darkened, and I asked, "What's wrong?"
Anna pulled me into the office, closed the door, and said, "Mr. Zheng came early in the morning. Although Mr. Zheng didn't give orders, I think you should be let in. But I don't know if Mr. Zheng is still there now." In the office, I think Ms. Liang should wait..."
I asked, "What happened?"
"I don't know either." Anna looked embarrassed.I know that as a secretary, the most taboo thing is talkative.
I said: "I have a sense of propriety, and it's fine if your words are heard." After I finished speaking, I still walked out.
As soon as I arrived at the door of Zheng Kaiwen's office, I heard voices coming from inside, and my heart suddenly became flustered. After a while, I heard clearly that it was Zheng Kaiwen's voice.
"At this time, you told me to stop! I have paid so much...how could I give up! If you were me, would you let go!"
"Kevin, listen to your father." I had never heard this voice before, and I was curious, so I couldn't help but get closer to listen.
"Stop talking!" Mr. Zheng yelled, almost deafening my ears. "All in all, I'll do it as I said. If you insist on going your own way, I'll give you an explanation at the board meeting. If you don't believe me, just give it a try." After leaving these words, the door suddenly opened with a bang.I took a step back abruptly, but was still bumped into by Mr. Zheng.
His face was full of anger, and his gray brows were kneaded into a ball.I could only lower my head and call out "Mr. Zheng". He lowered his eyebrows and looked at me, then left without looking back.The person following him must be the one who spoke just now.When I saw his face, I didn't like it very much. His face was treacherous with a half-smile, and the eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were seductive.
But this man has been following Mr. Zheng, like a watchdog. I despise a dog but also have to look at the owner.
Just as I was fascinated, there was a sudden sound of beating in the room.Anna, who had just returned to her seat, was startled and stood up abruptly.I waved to her, pushed the door open and walked in.
The paper, pencils and documents in the room were scattered all over the floor, and the large vase filled with picture scrolls by the table fell to the ground. Fortunately, the carpet on the floor was not broken.But the picture scrolls and scrolls were scattered all over the floor, Zheng Kaiwen took two steps back straightly, his shoulders fluctuated, and his back was turned to the door.
It seems very angry!
I looked at Zheng Kaiwen's back, feeling very uncomfortable.
Hearing me come in, he shouted without looking back: "Get out!"
I didn't move, he turned around and was about to get angry when he saw me, his face softened a little, he was silent for a while and said: "I want to be alone for a while." Said: "Come out with me for a while." Before I could answer, I took the coat on the hanger and left.
I slammed the door, gave Anna a wink to signal her to go in and tidy up the room, and hurriedly followed Zheng Kaiwen out.
The sky became gray again, as if it didn't know when it would rain again.
I followed Zheng Kaiwen all the way out of the building, and he walked silently in front, the hem of his dark gray coat swaying slightly with his steps.I was wearing a light-colored skirt and shivering with cold behind him.We just walked silently one after the other, we don't know how long we walked, and we don't know how far we walked.When he suddenly raised his head, he was already in Admiralty.
The moment I lost my mind, Zheng Kaiwen suddenly disappeared.
I panicked for a moment. There were crowds of people everywhere. I pushed aside the crowd to look for it. I didn't care about the pain in my feet, and I didn't feel cold. Instead, I was sweating.
If he disappears...if he disappears...
What should I do if he disappears suddenly like Jiang Yang?The more I thought about it, the more scared I became. Where did he go?Suddenly, I saw his back appearing at the sign of the subway station. I hurried out of the road and was scolded by the oncoming driver who slammed on the brakes. I apologized repeatedly and ran towards the subway station without looking back.When I got off the escalator, I saw him standing in a daze at the place where the ticket was bought. I could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
He glanced at me, and I knowingly took out the only change I had on me and gave it to him.He bought a ticket at the vending machine, turned and walked towards the subway station.I hurriedly bought a ticket and followed him. The subway entered the station quickly, and he stepped on the train.Pricked by the subway door that was about to close, he clutched his shoulder and slipped in.Passengers all around looked at me.
He leaned against the automatic door, looked out of the car, and didn't notice me.
I couldn't help but smile wryly in my heart, it's really a born cheap life.After finally getting rid of the eccentric Jiang Yang, he met such a difficult boss again.I stood on the armrest not far behind him, carefully observing his every move.He got off the car, I got off with him, he walked to the road, and I went to the street with him.Then he walked to a ticket office, and I looked up, and it was a ferry across the sea.
He took out the thousand-yuan bills in his wallet, bought a boat ticket, and turned around and walked into the pier.I searched all over my body, but I didn't even have enough money for a boat ticket.I watched him gradually move away from me, anxiety and uneasiness rose from the bottom of my heart, and I suddenly understood that I was so unwilling to be alone again.
So how can I leave him alone, he kept me by my side when I was the most helpless and down, and gave me a chance to start again, and I must never leave him when he was in trouble.No, at any time, I will never leave him alone again.
Yes, anytime.
So I followed him into the Zhajikou without thinking.
The ticket inspector stopped me and said, "Miss, where is your ticket?" I begged him with my hands together, and said repeatedly: "I will make up the ticket when I come back. I don't have any money with me, really. I have something urgent now, please." Let me in." As I said, my eyes kept looking at Zheng Kaiwen.The ticket inspector saw my distressed appearance, followed my gaze to look into the distance, and said, "Then remember to make up the fare when you come back."
I thank God and wish I could kowtow to him.Then he rushed to the ferry, found Zheng Kaiwen in the dark crowd, took the seat behind him and sat down.
As soon as the boat left, the sea breeze blew in from all sides of the ferry.I moved in, hugged my arms and rubbed them gently.The man sitting next to me looked at me with very strange eyes, and I grinned at him.The mother-in-law sitting on the other side of me suddenly said: "Miss, if you want to look good, you can't just wear it like this. Are you shooting commercials or movies?" I shook my head at her, and the old woman murmured helplessly: "Young people nowadays don't know what to think now. They wear so little and are not afraid of the cold."
I was in a state of misery, thinking that I was about to freeze to death, what kind of movie should I be filming... when will the boat dock.
After finally waiting for the boat to dock, everyone else disembarked, but Zheng Kaiwen was still sitting there lost in thought.I couldn't help complaining again and again, I fully experienced the hunger and cold of the little match girl at this moment.Although I don't know what this person is thinking, but I can understand his feelings.
He wants me to accompany him, so even if he intends to sit on the ferry until he turns white, I will accompany him.
A piece of news suddenly appeared on the TV on the ferry, and the female anchor said in a crisp voice: "This afternoon, the spokesperson of the Zheng Group suddenly issued a statement that he will not participate in the bidding for Shanghai Bund No. [-]. This cannot help but It is strange that the Zheng Group has been actively participating in the bidding activities for Land No. [-]. The investment in this project is also very considerable..."
I was stunned suddenly, it turned out to be like this.
No wonder he was so depressed, it turned out to be the case.
Kevin Cheng flew to Shanghai a year ago, and then brought me to Hong Kong. All of this was for the Three on the Bund project.Yeah, I know.For this reason, he even set up a project team and invited top architects, actuaries, and engineers in Hong Kong with high salaries... This investment is enough for me to live happily for two lifetimes.
But now, it's all over.
How could he not be depressed, if it was me, I might as well commit suicide by jumping into the sea.
When he saw the news on TV, he stood up suddenly and walked all the way to the railing of the ferry.At this time, a guest came on board, and I hurriedly pushed through the crowd and chased after him. When I saw him lying on the railing, my heart tightened, and I quickly walked to him and stopped.
He's not going to jump into the sea, I'm just thinking about it...it won't be so accurate.
Fortunately, he didn't move, just lying there in a daze.
The sea breeze blew on my face, and it still hurt like a knife at first, but now I don't feel it anymore.
On the other side, the neon lights first came on, the sky was gloomy, and the drizzle was slowly falling.
"Actually, I was just a little bit closer. I almost succeeded." He suddenly said, as if he was talking to himself: "But they didn't give me a chance, not even the last chance." He smiled wryly Ask me back: "Do you think I am useless?"
"No." I shook my head dully, my limbs were so numb from the cold, and my tongue became inflexible when I spoke.
He turned to look at me, his eyes were more gloomy than the sky, and then he tried hard to bend the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't form a smile in the end. "Sorry." He said softly.My heart seemed to be grabbed by someone hard, and it hurt for a while.His eyes were astringent, and he was afraid that he would shed tears if he didn't live up to his expectations.
I shook my head, choked up a bit, and said, "You don't have to tell me you're sorry, you paid my salary."
"I invited you here for the project of No. [-] on the Bund in Shanghai. You have worked hard for so long, spent so much energy, invested so much money and manpower, but now it is all in vain. It is just a futile effort." .I can't do anything but say sorry to you."
I still shook my head, my eyes were hot and wet.
Not only because I was once again facing the crisis of unemployment, but also because he said "I'm sorry".
He suddenly raised his hand to wipe the tears from my face.I was unconscious at first, but when he rubbed it lightly, I only felt a burning pain on my cheek.
He held my hand and said, "Why is your face so cold? Are you cold?"
I shook my head and nodded again, my mind was already muddled.He took off his coat and put it on me, tightened the neckline, and said softly: "Is it still cold?" Entered the ferry and found a corner seat to sit down.
I was held tightly in his arms, my heart was pounding, and suddenly I just wanted to lean on him like this, snuggle into his arms.I don't know if it's been too long since I've been hugged by a man like this, my whole body is burning hot.The faint smell of cologne on his body, his strong arms, and his chest wider than the sky.
"How did this happen?" I asked softly, "How did it happen so suddenly?"
"Actually, it wasn't sudden. I knew from the beginning that my father didn't agree with me to engage in this project." He wrapped me tightly in that dress and sighed.The warm breath hit my hair, itching. "So I kept it from him from the very beginning, including the deployment of personnel and the movement of funds. I have been very careful not to let him know, who knows or..."
"Then how did he know?" I asked, and suddenly felt extremely stupid.
That person is their father, who has given birth to such a capable son, and his father is not a cunning old cunning.Zheng Kaiwen looked down at me, suddenly smiled, and said, "If I say it's because of you, will you blame yourself?"
"Me?" I broke free from his arms suddenly and looked at him: "You said it was because of me?"
"Did Cage go to your house yesterday?"
I was taken aback by his question, speechless.
There was no trace of questioning in his tone, and he continued: "Cage belongs to my uncle. Uncle has always opposed me to engage in this project, and he knew that my father also disapproved of my plan, so he disclosed the news. Give it to Dad, lend him his hand to stop me."
I looked at him in disbelief, and couldn't believe that the big boy who laughed like a high school student would do such infernal things.
He uses me!
Burning with anger, my forehead slammed, and I felt that the blood in my whole body was rushing to the top of my head.
"You mean, Zheng Kaiqi went to my house last night to find information about this project?"
"I'm not sure, but maybe it is." He said: "Yesterday afternoon, my father suddenly called to test me about the project plan of No. [-] land. I didn't say anything. Then I was called to the office by my father I asked about this matter, I originally wanted to tell you that night, but thinking about it, there might be room for change. But I didn’t expect that I saw Cage go to your house..."
"Did you see it?" I was surprised.
It never occurred to me that yesterday's seemingly ordinary accident turned out to be such an intricate and meticulous layout.
"I see." He said lightly, "I saw him go in with you, and I saw you turn off the lights."
"us……"
Big misunderstanding.
But when I opened my mouth, I realized that I couldn't argue with anything.How can I make it clear?
"I know you didn't disclose the news to him, but Cage is not an idiot. How can he not get what he wants?" Zheng Kaiwen comforted me and said, "Uncle even planned it in advance, even if there was no yesterday's incident , They will still come to me today and prevent me from participating in the bidding. So, it's not your fault."
I turned my face away, the anger burning in my heart was like the fire of a steel furnace hardening my heart.
Hello Zheng Kaiqi!
He pretended to be innocent, and even treated me like a monkey.It's fine if you use me to plot against me, that's your own brother, and you actually play him along.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I became, and suddenly I couldn't help crying out of aggrievedness.Zheng Kaiwen put his arms around me, I leaned on his shoulder, and heard him say softly: "Don't think about it, I will take care of it." The voice was so soft and gentle, I suddenly felt a burst of exhaustion, infinite nostalgia fell asleep.
That night I had a dream, I dreamed of the lush cherry tree in front of the school.
At that time, Jiang Yang and I often dated under the cherry blossom tree.
In spring, the wind blows the shadows of the trees, and the cherry blossoms fall in pieces.
He kissed my lips lightly.
Then he suddenly took out a very ugly ceramic cup and said to me: "Birthday gift, don't throw it away." The poor cup looks like a deformity.
I laughed loudly and said, "You know it's ugly, and you know I'll throw it away." But I was stared at fiercely.
Later, although I hated it, I still happily insisted on using that cup, until one day, I accidentally broke it in the office.Later, I gradually understood that there are some things that you can only have once, and they cannot last forever.
Yan Xiaonan said that things like money come easy and go quickly, and love is the same.I proved her theory in practice, alas, I always defy myself.So now I am careful about everything that comes to me, such as work, such as friends, and love in the future.
I was afraid that if they came too quickly and easily, they would suddenly disappear from my side like Jiang Yang.
But now, work, life and Zheng Kaiwen are all far away from me.
VOL.7
I fell asleep in a daze, and I don't know how long it took.When I woke up, I saw the window was bright and clean, the white gauze was fluttering in front of the window, and the sky was never before blue.I raised my hand and rubbed my eyes, seeing that the room was neat and tidy, I thought I was not at home.Just confusedly thinking, where am I?Just as he groped to sit up, he heard the door lock click.
Zheng Kaiwen walked in with something in his hand.I was startled, and hurriedly pulled the sheet up to my neck, and blurted out: "Why are you at my house?" He looked at me and said, "I'm sick and confused." I looked at him and asked, "Am I sick?" He sat down by the bed, handed me a bowl of medicine in his hand and said, "You have a fever. I should have taken you to the hospital. But it's not a serious illness, so don't bother."
I looked at the dark thing in the bowl and smelled it: "What is this?"
"Cold tea, when I have a cold, the old servant at home often brews it for me. After a long time, I will cook it myself." He held my hand and said, "Drink it." I looked at the black tea He could only drink the stuff in one gulp, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Aren't we on the boat?"
"When I got off the boat, I felt hot on your body. I called you, but you didn't respond. So I had no choice but to take you back to your home. I took your temperature and it was almost 40 degrees." He stood up, I went to the table and took a thermometer and stuffed it into my mouth, and said: "Seeing that you are so sick and no one is taking care of you, I can't just let you die."
I looked down at my clothes, screamed ah, and said, "Did you change my clothes for me?"
"What are you making such a fuss about?" He picked up the thermometer I dropped on the quilt, wiped it with an alcohol cotton ball, stuffed it back into my mouth and said, "So what if I changed it. It's not like I haven't seen a woman before, Aren't you a woman? There's nothing I can't see."
I thought to myself: It is because you have seen too many women that this girl does not want you to see them.With the thermometer in his mouth, he couldn't speak, so he mumbled a few words.He took the thermometer away from my mouth and said, "Yan Xiaonan came here last night, and the clothes she changed for you."
"Xiao Nan has been here, where is she?" I excitedly got off the bed with my slippers, Zheng Kaiwen grabbed me and said, "She's gone, hurrying to start work. Your fever hasn't subsided yet, lie down." Said No matter what 21 stuffed me into the quilt, I curled up in the quilt like a kitten, stared at him with big innocent eyes and said, "How long have I been asleep?"
He looked at his watch and said, "Seven or eight hours, the recovery is pretty fast."
I shrank my neck and asked in a low voice, "Have you been here all this time?"
"What if you die of illness after I'm gone?" He smiled and said, "The trade union will definitely condemn me as an inhumane boss, and I think the whole of Hong Kong will condemn me. And you took care of me once when I was sick in Shanghai, Now we're even."
I snorted lightly, "You're really clear."
"Business, nothing else, don't you know how to settle accounts?"
I laughed angrily, and said vaguely, "What about the No. [-] project?"
Hearing this, he fell silent suddenly.He lowered his head and wiped the thermometer slowly, thinking for a long time before saying, "Don't worry about it, I'll take care of it."
A faint sentence, I don't know how much bitterness and pain it contains.The painstaking effort and energy he put into this project is probably only known to those of us who actually participated in it.How many days and nights are unavoidable, accompanied by eating, drinking, and smiling faces, and even need to ask for a loan from the bank...
He has to take this responsibility on his shoulders, which is a lot of responsibility.
I looked at his hand wiping the thermometer, the fingers were white and slender, and the knuckles were clear and prominent.I thought about how these hands had once been on my forehead, put their arms around my shoulders, and made cold tea for me, and I couldn't help but ask him in a low voice, "Mr. Zheng, are you okay?" ?”
He turned to look at me, twitched the corner of his mouth without a smile and said, "Do you think I'm alright?"
I also smiled at him, and said with a little sentimentality: "It's all my fault." He looked at me strangely, and I continued: "Fortune tellers say that my fate is hard. To build a company is to fail a company. Originally, I I did a good job in that advertising company, but you insisted on dragging me here, and now I have dragged down the project that caused you."
He deliberately opened his eyes wide and said: "You are so powerful, then I will arrange for you to go to my opponent's company."
We both laughed and he pulled the covers for me.The doorbell rang twice, and he said, "Maybe it's Yan Xiaonan, I'll open the door, and you lie down again." I nodded, reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes and asked, "Mr. Zheng, are you all right? He nodded confidently and said, "If you don't call me Mr. Zheng, I will be better off."
I let go, and heard him go out to open the door, the door lock clicked, and I was waiting for his response, but there was no sound for a long time.I couldn't help asking: "Who is it, is it Xiao Nan?" He didn't answer me, I waited and still didn't answer, so I ran out barefoot in my pajamas.
Once in the living room, I was dumbfounded.
The one standing outside the door was not Yan Xiaonan, but Zheng Kaiqi.
The two brothers stood facing each other across a door, and suddenly they all looked at me.Zheng Kaiqi's eyes were not surprised, but more questioning.I immediately felt furious, and I wanted to arrest him and ask him for punishment, but he himself came to the door.I was about to rush up, but Zheng Kaiwen went to the sofa and took the clothes, looked at me and said, "Then I'll go first, I bought something in the refrigerator. Remember to take medicine."
I gave a soft "hmm" and saw him enter the elevator, then I dragged Zheng Kaiqi and shouted: "Come in for me."
"Why is he at your house?" Zheng Kaiqi asked me suddenly.
I was out of breath, and because I was sick, I coughed twice before asking him with a sneer: "He found this house, he rented it, and he arranged it for me. Why can't he come here? You If you want to blame others, it is better to ask yourself first, you have not only been here, but also spent the night here."
As expected, his face darkened, very ugly, and he asked me coldly, "What do you mean by that?"
"I was going to ask you! What do you mean?" I pushed him hard, and he was suddenly pushed down on the sofa by me, half-up, stared at me and said, "I just saw that you didn't go to work today , so I came to see you with good intentions. Don’t treat yourself like a donkey with good intentions.”
I was so angry that my stomach cramped, and I said sarcastically: "You are so kind, you probably won't come here to spy again."
When I said the central thing, a trace of timidity flashed in his eyes, and he turned away from looking at me.
"I got it right." My heart ached for no reason.Grab his collar with both hands and push him out, shouting: "Get out, get out! I treat you as a friend, but you betrayed me! Find me for dinner, look at me kindly... It turns out that it is just Want to get information from me. What do you think of me! Friend? Stop laughing at me."
I had already shut him out of the door, but I was still screaming angrily.
He slammed on the door outside and shouted: "That's not the case! Luo Xin, you believe me, I didn't get any information from you at all. I really didn't... Yes, I originally wanted to get information from you Find something, but then I don't have it, I really don't have it."
"No, only ghosts will believe you." I yelled back loudly.
"I'm serious..." He stopped for a while, and I heard footsteps, presumably a neighbor just walked by, his words inevitably caused misunderstandings.After a while, he really said again: "I admit that I had some intentions to get close to you at the beginning, but what I said to you that day was true... Luo Xin... Can you open the door and listen to me... Luo Xin... Luo..."
"You've said enough, I don't want to hear it anymore." I clicked the door lock back.
He was still beating my anti-theft door vigorously outside the door, and his voice was ringing.I irritatedly covered my ears with a pillow, and suddenly the sound stopped.I thought my ostrich tactic worked, but when I removed the pillow, I realized that there was really no sound.
Suddenly he couldn't hear his shout, but panicked for a while, and hurried back to the door, watching his movements through the cat's eyes.But no one, I relieved myself that he was probably gone, and was about to turn around, but suddenly heard a bumping sound, and a woman's voice asked: "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
I hurriedly opened the door, and saw Zheng Kaiqi sitting on the ground leaning against the corner, pulling open his collar with one hand, and clutching the skirt tightly with the other, his chest was heaving violently, and he couldn't breathe.When the housewife next door saw me open the door, she hurriedly said, "He looks like he has an asthma attack. Miss, is he your friend?"
"Asthma?!" I grabbed Zheng Kaiqi with both hands, shook it vigorously and said, "Don't scare me, you are just kidding me."
I was in a cold sweat.
Seeing him in so much pain, my heart was also out of breath.He was trembling all over because he couldn't breathe, his face was flushed red, and he held my arm tightly with his right hand with amazing strength.I was anxious and flustered, if something happened to him, how would I explain it to Zheng Kaiwen.
The housewife next door was very calm, pulled me and said: "He has always had this disease, then he should have medicine on him." Suddenly, I hurriedly rummaged through his pockets for a while, and found one The bottle hurriedly asked: "Is it this?" He nodded with all his might, I hurriedly pulled off the cap and stuffed it into his mouth, and let him take two deep breaths, only to see his expression soften.
I was paralyzed, as if I was walking on the verge of life and death. The housewife scolded me and said: "What can I say to the young couple? If they are arguing through the door, the administrator will call 999. Go in. Let's talk." I didn't bother to explain to her, and after thanking her repeatedly, I helped Zheng Kaiqi into the room.
After letting him sit on the sofa, I poured him a glass of warm water, and he took a sip, and his complexion finally recovered.I patted myself on the heart and said, "I'm scared to death. How can you say that your disease just flares up, without any symptoms at all." He looked at me, suddenly smiled, and said, "Did I scare you just now?"
"It really scared me to death. I heard that asthma can kill people." I straightened his neckline, but he grabbed my hand and said, "You don't believe me."
I withdrew my hand and said, "How can I believe you? You just came to my house. Your father found my boss the next day and said that the project at No. You wouldn’t act so rashly. If it’s not you, who else leaked the news?”
He rolled my eyes at me and said, "You underestimate my father. He is definitely not the kind of person who will jump to judgment after hearing a word from others. And my uncle, besides me, he is beside my second brother. There are definitely no less than three eyeliners. Even if I really got some news from you, he would have known about it a long time ago."
My heart sank suddenly, what kind of family is this, they know fame and utilitarianism all day long.Even his own nephew is a computer, what kind of uncle is this.
"I think the reason why my second brother took you from Shanghai all the way is because you can trust him. Now he has to find someone he trusts, and it's not easy." I looked at him and sneered, "I didn't expect you to be a good substitute." Is your second brother thinking about it? You seem to know his thoughts."
"After all, we are blood brothers. And you are right, I made troubles against him... It didn't do me any good, and I also lost face to my family. So I think even if I can't do anything, at least I should settle down." Be careful, don't make trouble for the family. Trust me!"
I sighed with emotion, looked at him and said, "I believe in you, but you know how much trouble you have caused."
Maybe only I know that the consequences are unpredictable.
After the stop of the No. [-] project, my daily workload has been greatly reduced.Of course, the colleagues who worked on the No. [-] project with me have left the company one after another, and I am also waiting for the arrival of the white envelope.But waiting and waiting, a month passed, and nothing happened.
Just when I thought the matter was finally settled by Zheng Kaiwen, an unexpected visitor came to my office suddenly.
The brothers' uncle, Shao Tianyang.
He knocked on the door, then walked in and said, "Miss Liang, may I sit down?"
"Mr. Shao, sit down." I tried my best to put on a gentle expression, so as not to let him see how much I loathe this person's face.
But this hateful person looked at my empty desk and said sarcastically, "It seems that you have been quite free recently."
I have a high EQ, and I don't have the same knowledge as this kind of person.
"Does Mr. Shao have any orders?"
"Don't dare. You are Kevin's personal soldier, and I can't do anything about it."
He laughed selfishly, and I felt goosebumps all over my body when I heard it, but my heart ached.
It's been almost a week, and I can't find Zheng Kaiwen anywhere, and he won't answer my calls.Occasionally when I saw him in the company, he was in a meeting.He didn't look for me, and he turned a blind eye to me. I don't understand what happened.But, I'm worried...it's been so long, what happened to him?How much responsibility can that shoulder bear?
When I came back to my senses, there was already one more thing on the table.
white envelope.
What a dazzling white envelope.
I never expected that I got this white envelope from Shao Tianyang.
What happened to Zheng Kaiwen?
"This is a little bit of kindness from the company." He took out another envelope and said to me with a smile: "You have worked very hard these days. Kevin also feels very embarrassed. This is a small gesture..."
I stood up abruptly, picked up the heavy white envelope and asked him, "Did Zheng Kaiwen ask you to give it to me?"
"This is what the company means. Kevin is also a member of the company..."
I sneered and threw the white envelope on him: "I'm just a low-level employee, and these are too much severance pay. I can't afford it."
Shao Tianyang looked at me in embarrassment and said, "It's hard for me to do what you do."
"Mr. Shao, don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you." I took off my coat and purse from the hanger, picked up the dismissal letter on the table, and said, "I still have money to buy a plane ticket back to Shanghai, so don't worry about it." .”
I walked out of the office with my head held high, when I suddenly heard Shao Tianyang's voice behind me.
"Miss Liang, you really have a lot of backbone, but you can't take it for food if you have a backbone."
I looked back at his disgusting face, suppressed my anger, smiled at him without showing any weakness, and said, "Mr. Shao, I think that your backbone may have been eaten away Bar."
There was a burst of low laughter in the public area, Shao Tianyang's face was really uglier than a pig's liver.
Although he is Zheng Kaiwen's uncle no matter what, I shouldn't be so disrespectful, but this lady has always been a person who does not offend me, and I will not offend others. If you provoke me, I will definitely put the leftovers in your bowl.
I strode out of Zheng's Building, and the little expectation left in my heart dissipated.
Zheng Kaiwen can't protect himself now, how can he still have the ability to take care of me.No... I shouldn't have any expectations of him anymore, let alone want him to protect me. I'm his employee, that's all.Now we don't even have this level of relationship. From now on, we are just strangers.
"Luo Xin."
On the street, someone suddenly called my name so loudly.
My heart couldn't help a burst of excitement.
However, the person who rushed over to grab me was not Zheng Kaiwen, but Zheng Kaiqi.
I saw him sweating profusely, and I felt a little sad in my heart.
"Why are you running so fast, you are not afraid of another asthma attack, I am afraid of you." I joked and took out a tissue to wipe his sweat.
He didn't smile at all, and said seriously: "Are you leaving?"
I smiled and deliberately said frankly: "Everyone is gone, I should go too."
He anxiously sweated on his forehead: "But, you should at least wait for my second brother to come back and tell him. Don't you want to wait for him?"
"No need, he's just an employee of Huanyu Company. The white envelope is covered with the company's big red stamp. I have no reason to hold back." I tried my best to keep smiling, but the anxious, sad, and uneasy expression in his eyes She, these sincere feelings are causing my defenses to collapse little by little.
I lowered my eyelashes, smiled and said, "Don't worry about me, I can still find a job when I go back to Shanghai. Don't forget, I graduated with a master's degree, and I am so young and capable. Even if I can't find a promising job, I still can't find a job." To a promising husband?"
"But...but just like that you left..." He grabbed my wrist tightly, but refused to let go.
I interrupted him on purpose, afraid that he would say something that I couldn't bear, and this kind of sensational scene would make me, the unworthy Liang Luoxin, burst into tears.
"It's not that I'm dead, I still have a chance to meet you in the future. A two-hour flight from Shanghai to Hong Kong is enough."
He suddenly hugged me tightly, so hard that he almost squeezed out all the moisture in my chest cavity.I raised my chin and looked at the sky. The sun was shining hotly on my pupils. I thought the tears must have evaporated, but I didn't cry.
"I'm really useless. In the end, I couldn't even keep a friend."
"Cage, thank you." I pushed him away and held his hand: "In life, there are always many things that can't be done. If there is anything that goes wrong in the future, don't make trouble, call me Or come to see me in Shanghai, I will take you to eat delicious food, go shopping, meet beautiful girls..."
"When did you fly?"
"I don't know." I know what he wants to do, but I can't let him do it.
If I see Zheng Kaiwen again, maybe I don't even have the courage to leave, I will really stay here, even if I can only pick up garbage here, I will stay by his side.
yes i love him.
Although I don't know when it started, but I know that I have fallen hopelessly in love with Zheng Kaiwen and my "former" boss.
I'm sitting in the airport lobby with my suitcases next to me, no more than when I arrived.
In a few minutes before boarding, in the empty airport hall, all thoughts and memories rushed to my eyes in a flash.The first time I met Zheng Kaiwen, his bad expression, and my damn mineral water bottle... In the meeting room, the red PRADA... He was so sick and confused... I was kidnapped as his sister... in On Binjiang Avenue, his smile, his lonely back...that piano piece, what he said...that rainy night when he parked the car downstairs at my house...we were on the ferry...
Everything is like a dream.
If Cinderella really had a pair of crystal slippers, it turned out that I couldn't wear them.
I buried my face in my arms and wept uncontrollably.
