Chapter 77

Author: Luo Yi gave her snow MACHINE TRANSLATION

Her stomach was still throbbing. Xin Zimo squatted beside her and gave her clothes and tissues as usual. At night, the lights were dim and cars were coming and going. Xin zimo hugged Du Anran and held her tightly in his arms.

He could clearly feel her trembling body. He held her cold hands and used his own temperature to warm her.

She no longer had the strength to reject him. She was exhausted. This cold city was like an isolated island. It was lonely and helpless. Only his temperature was slowly melting her body and mind. Was this considered hugging a snake for warmth? She no longer had the strength to care about this. She only knew that it was so cold… …

“Anran, I’ll send you to the hospital. ” Xin Zimo carried her into the car.

Du Anran did not refuse. She closed her eyes slightly and held her stomach. Xin zimo turned on the air conditioner in the car. There was also a faint smell of lavender. After a long time, she felt much better.

Xin Zimo’s car drove very steadily. He did not dare to speed up and stopped at the nearest hospital. It was already very late. Only the doctor on duty was there. Xin Zimo was busy and finally settled Du Anran down.

Because it was only a minor stomach ailment, Du Anran insisted on going home. Xin Zimo did not agree, so he sat by the bed and accompanied her, taking care of her meticulously.

However, the two of them still had nothing to say. Du Anran was on the drip, and Xin zimo watched as the drip flowed down. Everything was very quiet, so quiet that one could hear each other’s breathing. Time seemed to have stopped.

Du Anran closed her eyes and lay on the bed, but images kept appearing in her mind. These were almost all related to Xin Zimo, and she could not get them out of her mind. She tried hard to think of some happy things, such as when she was with Jin Shaonan, Liu Wanwan, and her mother. But the more she thought about happy things, the more painful it was.

She didn’t know when she and Xin Zimo had reached such a state. Although he was quiet in the past, he wasn’t like this now. She was the same. Where did the talkative and happy du Anran go… …

Du Anran was very tired after this day. She closed her eyes and let her imagination run wild for a while before falling into a deep sleep. Xin Zimo was watching over her. The two of them were very close, but for the first time, he felt as if he was far away from the world.

She was right in front of him, but he thought that she… … still did not belong to him …

His hand caressed her thin face, over and over again… … When he lowered his head, he could clearly smell the scent of rosemary in her hair. His heart suddenly ached. Why couldn’t they go back to the past …

In those two years, from the moment he met “falling in love, ” every detail was filled with exploitation and hatred. He regretted that he had let down two good years. How many more two years would be waiting for him at the same place… …

“Enron… ” he whispered her name, left hand tightly holding her right hand, he was afraid that he let go, is the vicissitudes of life will not meet again.

Silent Night, Autumn Leaves Falling Silent, fireworks do not open, lonely do not disperse.

When du Anran woke up the next morning, it was already past ten o’clock in the morning. Xin Zimo was no longer by her side. She realized it was Thursday and she had to go to work.

Xin Zimo said that if you leave early or late, your salary will be deducted.

In her panic, she hurriedly went to look for her phone, but when she opened her phone, she saw a text message from him: “I will always be waiting for you. “.

The time of the text message was more than four o’clock at night, and he was still awake at that time… … Du Anran clutched her phone, and her mind went blank …

Suddenly, she sat on the hospital bed and silently cried… …

It was already afternoon when she arrived at the Xin Corporation. Xin Zimo was sitting in his office reading a document, and she symbolically knocked on the door.

Xin Zimo was very serious when he worked, and his brows were tightly knitted, as if he had encountered a difficult problem. When he heard Du Anran knocking on the door, he flipped through the documents and did not raise his head. “Come in. ”

Du Anran was Xin Zimo’s secretary, but she only helped Xin Zimo with some daily trivial matters. Many things were left to other secretaries to do. She worked very leisurely, and she knew that her current appearance was not much different from a lover.

Xin Zimo’s office was very large, and Du Anran was arranged to be in it. He did not allow her to go out, so she could only face Xin Zimo alone every day. The Entire Xin Corporation only knew that Xin zimo had hired a new secretary, but no one knew that it was du Anran.

After hiding it for a month, Du Anran also knew that the paper could not contain the fire in the end. But she did not know how the world would look at her. She had already received cold looks and ridicule. Even the huge gambling debt of her uncle was paid by him. What was she exactly… …

“What are you daydreaming for? Go to work. ” Xin Zimo saw that the person in front of him had stood for a long time and said lightly.

“Oh… ” Du Anran sat at the desk behind Xin Zimo. Just as she sat down, she said, “President Xin, I was delayed by work in the morning… ”

“I know. ” Xin zimo lowered her head and looked at the documents. “I work overtime until nine in the evening. If you’re willing to stay, I’ll let bygones be bygones. If you’re not willing, I’ll deduct your salary. ”

Xin Zimo was very serious and serious when she was working. She did not have any ambiguous actions towards her in the office anymore. She nodded. “Then I’ll go back at nine too… ”

“Okay. ” Xin zimo tapped on the keyboard with a serious expression. The accounts for the few big projects in this issue did not match at all, and the finance actually hid it from him. If he had not suddenly checked the accounts, would they have just sat there and waited for the profits to be divided.

Du Anran saw that Xin Zimo was no longer willing to disturb her, so she turned on the computer and did what she should do.

The office was quiet for a while, and only the sound of Xin Zimo and Du Anran tapping on the keyboard could be heard. The more Xin zimo checked, the more he felt that something was wrong. There was a huge loophole in the accounts for the entire quarter.

He muttered to the computer for a long time before he turned around and handed a large set of financial accounts to Du Anran.

“help me reconcile the accounts. ” Xin Zimo turned around to look at the computer again.

Du Anran was slightly surprised when she received the accounts. The accounts… … were one of the most confidential things in the company. How could he dare to give this to her? Wasn’t he afraid that she would take the opportunity to find the financial loophole in the Xin Corporation and take revenge on him ? ?

Or did he think that even if she looked at these accounts, she did not have the ability to find the fatal point of the Xin Corporation.

She stared at his back for a long time. In any case, she had never guessed him.

That afternoon, she had been helping him reconcile the accounts. She used to do this kind of thing often, so now that she had taken over the accounts smoothly, she could easily find the abnormalities.

Sure enough, the few items in the Xin group’s accounts for this quarter were clearly losing money, but when it came to the financial statements, they were profitable. And the financial statements had been altered so that no traces could be seen. The method was very clever.

“What did I tell you? You have to be efficient in doing things. There are only so many accounts, and you need to look at them for an entire afternoon? ” When the sky was almost dark, Xin Zimo, who was sitting in front, suddenly broke the silence in the office.

Du Anran was also afraid of making mistakes, so she carefully checked the accounts over and over again. She did not expect Xin Zimo to say that she was being slow. She handed the accounts to Xin Zimo and pointed out the problem.

“CEO Xin, last month, the Xin Group bought a building materials company. Logically speaking, the accounts should only show a profit and not a loss. However, this month’s report showed that the shares fell, and the report did not specify the problem. “This account should be the biggest loophole in this quarter. ”

“It’s just as I thought. ” Xin zimo clenched his fist and rested it on his chin. There was a profound look in his eyes.

“Then what do you plan to do… ” Du Anran asked. It was not good for her to give him an idea. Moreover, this involved the financial secrets of the Xin Corporation.

“I’ll just sit on the sidelines. ” Xin Zimo thought for a while and said “Tomorrow, I’ll ask the finance department to bring over all of this year’s reports. When the time comes, you can see when this loophole was created. As the saying goes, a dam within a thousand miles is destroyed by an ant’s nest. The Xin Corporation will never allow such a thing to happen. ”

“I don’t know much about finance. President Xin, you’d better find someone else. ” Du Anran declined politely. She did not want to interfere with the XIN corporation’s secrets. Moreover, this year’s financial statements would definitely include the part about the acquisition of Shihe. Mentioning Shihe would only hurt her heart.

Xin zimo looked at her evasive eyes and knew that she was obviously worried. He only sighed in his heart… …

That night, Xin Zimo and Du Anran worked overtime until nine o’clock. Before they left, Xin Zimo insisted on sending Du Anran off. She refused and rejected him.

Just as Du Anran and Xin Zimo were standing side by side outside the XIN building, a Red Ferrari quietly closed the window not far away. Mother Xin took off her sunglasses and made a call.

Thus, Du Anran’s phone rang at an inappropriate time.

She saw that it was mother Xin and did not dare to answer in front of Xin Zimo, so she secretly hung up. Xin Zimo did not notice anything unusual, but he still insisted on seeing Du Anran off. Du Anran shook her head and ran to the roadside to hail a taxi.

Xin Zimo had no choice but to watch her get into the taxi and then watch the car leave. When would she not reject him? was he not even her friend. …

After Xin Zimo went to get the car, mother Xin started the Ferrari and followed du Anran’s taxi.

Halfway through, Mother Xin called Du Anran again. This time, du Anran braced herself and pressed the answer button.

“Have you thought about what I said last night? ” Mother Xin got straight to the point.

“What is it… ” Du Anran could not remember what she had promised mother Xin.

“I asked you to consider the matter with Han Yuan. If you can accept it, I’ll help you arrange a meeting this weekend. ” Mother Xin’s attitude was quite polite today.

“We can’t discuss this matter. ” Du Anran directly refused. “My attitude yesterday was very clear! ”

“Then let me ask you, how long do you want to keep an ambiguous relationship with Zimo? ” Mother Xin’s words were fierce, and she was obviously dissatisfied.

“I don’t understand what you’re saying. My attitude toward CEO Xin has already been very clear. ”

“Is that so? You’re saying that you’re already like a passerby, yet you’re still pulling and pulling at each other? ”

“If you just want to question me about this, I’m sorry, I’ll hang up first. ”

“Wait a minute! ” Mother Xin said angrily, “why did you appear at the Xin family tonight? ”

“You followed me? ” Du Anran frowned and questioned.

“followed? Do I need to follow you? ” Mother Xin scoffed, “I’m just concerned about my son. His everything can not be destroyed by an unknown woman! ”

“You… ” Du Anran said angrily, “you better not call me in the future… you win. I’m afraid of you… ”

She was really afraid of this woman. Why did she keep pestering her. What was she thinking? What did the DU family owe her… …

Du Anran hung up on mother Xin decisively. She was really afraid that she would lose control and quarrel with her again. However, mother Xin refused to relax. She followed Du Anran into Stone Gate Alley. When she saw Du Anran enter the courtyard, she gritted her teeth angrily.

After du Anran returned home, she wanted to give Jin Shaonan a call. She heard from Liu Wanwan that he was not feeling well, and she did not go to see him… … She felt very guilty. She had let Jin Shaonan down, and she had let him down …

It was not that she did not see how well the Jin family treated her, and she was not an ungrateful person. However, there were some feelings that she really could not repay. Now that she had fallen to such a state, how could she still have the face to accept Jin Shaonan’s love… …

She put down the phone that she had picked up. She still did not have the courage to press that familiar number. She was not as strong as she had imagined. She could only send a message to Liu Wanwan: Is Shao Nan feeling better?

When Liu Wanwan, who was playing games on the other end of the phone, saw the message, she shook her head and sighed. She replied with three simple words: He’s fine.

The moon was clear and bright. The North wind blew the fallen leaves outside the courtyard. One or two birds flew up from the branches of the trees. The thin shadow of the tree branches floated on the ground. By midnight, the snow was falling sparsely.

This was the first snow of the year. It came neither early nor late. It was silent, but it brought with it a bit of loneliness.
