Not long after she returned, she opened the curtains in the living room. There was a man sitting on the sofa in the living room, with his back facing the window, flipping through a newspaper. He was wearing a black shirt, apart from his usual western suit and leather shoes.
She took out a small plate of fruit and placed it on the table. The next second, she was sitting next to a man and said something in his ear. The man who was reading a newspaper looked away from the newspaper and smiled at her.
Wang Xinran shyly dodged a few times, then went over with a hint of flattery, as if she wanted to read the newspaper with him.
The man raised his beautiful, delicate hands and patted her on the head a few times. Then he smiled and continued flipping through the newspaper.
The two of them were like a newlywed couple, interacting intimately in the room. Although the man only revealed his face and chin, I could immediately tell who he was.
Who else could he be?
For a moment, I didn't know what I was thinking. I just calmly sat in the car, took it out of my bag, and dialed a number.
The phone had only rung twice, so Wang Xinran, who was sitting beside the man and eating fruit, immediately stood up and went to the other side of the sofa to pick it up. Perhaps because she was too happy, she didn't even look at the caller's reminder and directly pressed the answer button.
When her 'hello' came through the phone.
I smiled and said, "Are you free today?"
Hearing my words, she subconsciously looked at the man sitting on the sofa. Then, she covered her mouth with her hands and walked a little further away before she said, "What is it?"
I said, "Let's talk."
She refused, "I'm not free."
I said, "You work overtime at the company?"
She was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes. I'm not free these few days. "
I laughed, pressed a button, and the window rolled down. "I'm at your door," I said.
Wang Xinran's body froze. When she heard me, she immediately turned to look at the window, and when she saw the car that was parked in front of her, she saw with her own eyes that her face had lost all color in that instant. After a long while, the hand in her hand dropped from her hand and fell to the ground.
The sound of him falling on the ground made the man, who was still flipping through the newspaper, look over. When he saw me, who was sitting in the car and looking at them, his brows slightly furrowed, but very quickly, he calmly put down the newspaper in his hand, stood up from the sofa, and turned around to face me.
We looked at each other for a few seconds, then I laughed coldly at him. Just as I was about to start the car and leave, I heard something again.
I hit the answer button. Then he looked at him through the French window.
He looked at me and said, "Since you're here, come in and have a seat."
His words were so magnanimous, as if it was the right thing to do.
I was similarly magnanimous. Smiling, I replied, "There's no need. I still have some matters to attend to so I won't disturb you any longer."
After saying that, I hung up the phone and shut it down. Then, I started to drive away.
After driving for a while, I stopped the car, pushed open the door, and entered Wang Xinran's apartment. The first thing I did when I arrived was to do it in front of Yu Jin. Ye Zichen raised his hand and slapped her.
That palm was extremely crisp. In the silence of the room, it was as though the trigger was pulled and the sound of a bullet being fired was heard.
Wang Xinran covered her face and did not speak, she only lowered her head and stood there silently. She did not look at Yu Jin either, and Yu Jin did not move as well.
Wang Xinran, this is the first time I have seen someone like you, who isn't really a good person, come over and be a ghost. " I smirked and said, "If you keep up the good work, maybe once Wu Xia falls, you'll still be my sister-in-law."
After I finished speaking, I turned around and was about to leave when Yu Jin suddenly grabbed me from behind and said coldly: "Apologize."
I looked back at him and asked, "Why should I apologize?"
I shook off his hand and tried to leave, but he squeezed me so hard I couldn't struggle. I turned to him and asked, "What the hell do you want?"
Yu Jin's face hid his anger, and said: "I apologize now."
I looked at Wang Xinran who was covering her face and standing there, then looked at him once more before laughing out loud. "Alright! Let go of me, I'll apologize right now."
Yu Jin suppressed the anger on his face and slowly let go of my hand. After obtaining my freedom, I moved my wrist which was painful from his strength, and in the instant I hung there, I grabbed the cup of water on the table and threw it towards Wang Xinran.
The water trickled down her hair and dropped down to the ground, one by one. The floor under our feet was covered with water stains, she reached out to wipe the water stains on her face lightly, then choked with sobs: "Yu Xiaowei, I owe you this."
I smiled and said, "No, you don't owe me, because we've never been friends."
After I said that, I threw the cup of water in my hand to the ground. Without looking at Yu Jin's expression, I turned and pushed open the door and left the house.
I didn't know what I was thinking at the time. My mind was blank as I drove the car forward bit by bit, the throttle getting lower and lower, the speed exceeding the speed limit.
It wasn't until a traffic light hit me, and by the time I realized it, it was too late, so I slammed my car into the red Toyota in front of me.
When I heard the loud bang coming from the car, I could clearly hear the scream coming from my throat. This scream was even louder than the sound of the car colliding with me. I leaned on the steering wheel, hard trembling and gasping for breath.
Everything went straight to the ears, until there was a knock on the door, and a repeated knock on the door, and I used all my strength. Cold sweat trickled down his back as he lifted his face from the steering wheel and looked out the window.
The owner of the Toyota, who had been hit by me, was standing outside the window, cursing at me. "Do you even know how to drive?" he asked.
As he pounded on the door of my car, he shouted at me, "Get out of the car right now! Get out of the car immediately! "If you don't, don't even think about leaving!"
I knew that I was in trouble, but I didn't dare get off the car. At this time, Yu Jin called me.
When I looked out of the window, the Toyota owner saw me sitting there and didn't get out. He picked up a rock and slammed it against my window.
I dropped my hand to my lap, and when I picked it up again, I realized I had hit the wrong button and was on the phone.
I was so shocked that I wanted to hang up, but just as I placed my hand on the button, Yu Jin's voice came out from the phone, saying: "Hang up the phone and try."
I paused for a few seconds, then put it to my ear.
Yu Jin heard the noise coming from the other side of the phone, so he guessed what happened. He asked inside the phone: "Did something happen?"
I was silent for a moment, then I said, "Well, hit someone else's car."
He said, "Sit in the car and don't move. I'll be right over."
Then, he hung up.
I looked out the window again and saw that the man was still smashing my window. Luckily, the quality of the car was good enough, the window wasn't broken, it was only cracked, he had smashed it a few times, some passersby came up to him and advised him not to get so worked up, just wait for the insurance company to deal with it.
However, that person seemed to have drunk a bit and said with a flushed face, "I drove well, and this is my car that's coming for the insurance company? How? "It's not laozi's fault. Otherwise, she won't be able to leave."
If this person drinks wine and is afraid that the matter will go to the police, he will be fined if I do not compensate him.
So he didn't agree to call the insurance company and wanted to make a fortune out of me. He wanted to see a woman, so he tried to force his way through.
I sat in the car and sneered a few times. I let the man outside roar at the people in the back. As for the cars on the road, they had long been blocked by a long queue due to us.
Not long after that, Yu Jin rushed over. Seeing that he was surrounded by people inside the carriage, he walked over and opened the door, then pulled me out of the car. When the drunk man saw that there was someone here, he wanted to rush over to find trouble with me, but who would have thought that Yumann Ting, who was standing at his side, would swiftly block him.
She said, "Sir, if you have anything you need or need, please let me handle it."
The drunk man looked at Yumann Ting, and seeing that she was the one in charge, he pointed to the end of the carriage that had been smashed by me and said: "What needs do I have?! Are you in charge of her? Look, look, there are traffic lights in front of us, I'm driving well, I need to stop the car. I just bought this car for two hundred thousand yuan, and it's only been a few months since I got insurance. I was going to buy a red car, but you guys actually hit my car into such a sorry state! It even knocked away all my prizes! What do you think we should do? Speak! "
The drunk man was furious, it was obvious that Yumann Ting also smelled the scent of alcohol from his body, so she covered it with her hands? Brat, I was the one who bumped into him after all. After a while, Yumann Ting asked him: "Then do you want to settle this privately or do you want to be a man?"
Seeing Yumann Ting say that, the drunk man immediately offered, "Don't even think about leaving after paying ten thousand."
Hearing him say that, Yumann Ting laughed out loud: Let's not talk about whether or not we bumped into you, just by knowing that you drank too much, you would be fined, or even your driver's license would be revoked, your car would probably be insured, although I do not know whether your car is fully compensated or even 10% of it, but I think, the thing that you should be responsible for, will only be half of it, if I give you 8000, you can even earn 5000, and this matter will be settled by us, if not, we will go through the proper procedures, take a look, how do you want to resolve it?
After Yumann Ting analyzed the pros and cons of the conversation, the originally arrogant man became much weaker. I did not look at how the last two people negotiated, because in the next second, Yu Jin started the car expressionlessly and drove it away on the road.
After driving the car to a quiet place, he stopped the car, pulled up the handbrake, and then raised the window. He looked at me with a cold expression and asked, "What happened to you? Do you know how to drive? "Hmm?"
I sat there, looking at the front of the car.
Seeing that I did not say anything, he continued: "If you don't know how to drive next time, ask the driver to come. Yu Xiaowei, I find that you are really troublesome. Do you want me to stare at you like this for the rest of my life? "
I couldn't stand his harsh reprimand so I looked at him coldly and said, "Did I let you take care of me? Even if you don't come, I can still take care of this matter. Don't make your desire to control Yu Jin seem like I really hope you can take care of it. "
Yu Jin had always been disdainful of quarreling with me, he even thought that it was a waste of saliva arguing with me. But when I said those words today, he immediately turned my face away and asked coldly: "Do I have the desire to control myself?" He laughed twice and looked out of the window. Roughly because of how agitated I was, he suddenly raised his voice towards me and said, "Yu Xiaowei, if it wasn't for you being my sister, do you think I would care about such a bunch of useless things? Ever since I was young, have you saved my life? "
I said, "Yeah, you think I want to be your sister? If it wasn't for your sister, would I have ended up like this? Why are you talking about it now? What qualifications do you have to talk about me? "
I said with a cold smile: "Let me tell you, Yu Jin, even if I crashed into this street today, you wouldn't care about my matters from now on. I'll tell you, I feel disgusted!"
I opened the door and got out of the car. I threw the door open, grabbed my bag, and stormed forward.
Yu Jin didn't chase after me. Instead, he sat in the carriage and expressionlessly looked at me for a good long while. Then, he lit a cigarette for himself and sneered as he came out.
When I returned to the company, Jiang Hua saw that there was a wound on my forehead, and walked over to ask me what happened.
I ignored him, sat down at my desk, poured myself a couple of glasses of water, drank it down, and drank it down. I lay down on the chair, panting.
Seeing my abnormal expression, Jiang Hua went to the side of the cabinet and took out a medicine box to treat the wounds on my forehead that were caused by the pieces.
He had just taken the glass out of my forehead when I said, "Yu Jin has returned to his country. I saw him today."
Jiang Hua's hand paused for a moment, then he sat down and looked at me.
He said, "When did it happen?"
I said, "Just now."
Jiang Hua said, "Did he tell you why he came back?"
I said, "I didn't say anything. We had a huge argument, but I can tell from this that one day, I definitely won't be able to pass this assessment."
Jiang Hua put down the tweezers in his hand, and roughly said what he was waiting for me to say.
I said, "The person who left the restaurant with Cao Zhengde that day was indeed him. I think the reason why Yu Jin ate with him was so that I wouldn't be able to complete this project."
Jiang Hua said, "No matter why he came back this time, it doesn't matter. There will always be a way to deal with it. I think that since he called the shareholders to let you participate in this assessment, it shouldn't be too much of a waste. "
I sneered: "You really don't understand Yu Jin. I know very well what kind of person he is.
Seeing the atmosphere on my face, Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Did something bad happen to you today?"
He suddenly asked, and I subconsciously replied, "Do I have one?"
Jiang Hua nodded and said, "Yes, I seem to especially hate Boss Yu."
I was silent for a moment at the mention of him. He changed the subject and said, "It's nothing. I still have a lot of work to do."
Jiang Hua also did not waste anymore time, after helping me treat the wound on my forehead, he gave me a bandage, and I continued to sit there and casually flipped through a document.
I drank a few cups of water to calm myself down, but when I drank the fourth cup, I suddenly and crazily swept the documents on the table to the floor. When Jiang Hua came in, he just happened to see my actions, but he didn't say anything, and didn't ask. He silently squatted down and picked up all the documents on the floor for me.
I sat there holding my head and crying for no reason.
Yes, I cried for no reason. I don't know what happened to me, but I love to cry more and more.
After Jiang Hua organized the things for me, he came to my side, and waited for me to calm down a little. He then said: "How about you rest for a day?"
I said, "No, I'm just not in a good mood."
After I finished speaking, I no longer looked at Jiang Hua, and continued to flip through the documents in my hands.
Jiang Hua could only do his best to help me sort out some of the documents so that I wouldn't feel so irritated.
I worked until midnight that night, and on the way back from work I was so tired I fell asleep in the car. When I woke up, I opened my eyes and found that I was at the bottom of the apartment building.
I stare blankly at the lonely and dim street light outside the window. After getting off the car exhausted, I drag my bag with me as I shuffle into the elevator.
When they arrived upstairs, Auntie was already asleep with the prepared food on the table. I sat down at the kitchen table, picked up my chopsticks and ate a few bites. Since I had no appetite, I threw my bag in my hand and went into the room. I took off my shoes and lay on the bed, not wanting to move anymore.
Just like this, I slept until the next morning. After going to the hospital again, I received a call from Cao Zhengde himself. He said that he was willing to meet with me once.
I, who received this phone call back then, sat there in a state of complete disbelief. I had been thinking and thinking about how to contact Cao Zhengde in one go, and how to successfully call him out after that.
I had no idea he would call me on his own accord.
I held it, and looked at the number in disbelief. I realized that it wasn't wrong, it was indeed Cao Zhengde who called.
After a few seconds, I snapped out of my daze. I immediately said with a smile on my face, "Hello, Mr. Cao. I am Yu Xiaowei from the Yu Family Group."
Just as I was about to introduce myself, Cao Zhengde interrupted me and said, "I know your name. Your brother told me your name before."
I was stunned for a few seconds before I awkwardly said, "Is that so?"
Cao Zhengde said, "How about this. I'm free at 6: 00 this evening. We'll have dinner together at the Jude Building. "
Cao Zhengde obviously doesn't have much time left, if not he would not have used such a direct tone to speak to me without the slightest of twists and turns.
Naturally, I didn't waste his time. When he said "All Gatheres", I immediately smiled and said, "Alright, I'll definitely be there on time at 6 PM."
Cao Zhengde said: "Alright, then that's it."
Then he hung up.
I sat there and looked left and right, thinking to myself, what does Cao Zhengde mean by this? Why did Cao Zhengde personally call to ask to see me?
I fell silent.
Coincidentally, Jiang Hua had come in, and I had told him about this matter. When he heard this, he was also somewhat puzzled and surprised, but after a while, Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Regardless of the reason why Cao Zhengde has invited you to meet today, at least being able to meet him is a good thing for you."
I nodded, thinking that this was true.
Thus, I prepared for the afternoon to see Cao Zhengde, and continued to look through all the information on the project. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I arrived there on time, but Cao Zhengde was really busy. He arrived at seven o'clock, an hour short of the time he had agreed upon with me.
After he rushed over, he sat in front of me, panting and apologizing. He said that he had been delayed because of something, and because of the traffic jam, he was late.
He was an elder, and I had a request for him. I didn't care that he was an hour late, I just smiled and asked, "What do you like to eat? I'll give you some. "
Cao Zhengde smiled at my incomparably sincere question, probably eating with someone else. Most of us would have been sure of his preferences, so I was the first one to ask him directly what he liked to eat.
He smiled and said, "Little girl, you are quite unconventional."
I poured a cup of tea for him and said with a smile, "Why do you need to go through all this? Other than your identity, you're also an elder. You're just having a meal. You should have your favorite meal earlier. If you don't want to eat this today, do you want to change your taste?"
Cao Zhengde took the cup of tea from my hand and laughed out loud.
So the two of us, holding the menu, studied it. What kind of food I should eat would greatly reduce the amount of unfamiliarity Cao Zhengde and I had with each other.
Cao Zhengde didn't know whether he was lucky today or not, but he was truly a little hungry. It had been many years since he had last ordered a dish, yet he had actually ordered something hidden, and it only took us half an hour to order some dishes.
