Cold Beauty Fell in Love with Me - C108 An Intuitive Tragedy
The next morning, we returned to Haizhou and got off the train. Just as Qiu Tong and I were about to part ways at the train station plaza, we saw Zhang Xiaotian dragging a big suitcase over, so we greeted him.
When Zhang Xiaotian saw me and Qiu Tong here, his expression was a little surprised. “autumnum, Yi Ke, you —”
I bluntly said: “autumnum and I went to see Yuan Duo’s parents, we just got off the train!”
Zhang Xiaotian’s expression froze for a moment, and then his eyes dimmed. It seemed as if he wanted to avoid this topic as much as possible, but he couldn’t help but ask, “How are they?”
“Good, very good, Yuan Duo’s mother is asking about you!” Qiu Tong stood at the side and said.
Zhang Xiaotian’s face instantly flushed red, the expression on his face extremely awkward.
I said, “You’re…”
“I want to go home for the new year!” Zhang Xiaotian said.
I nodded. “Let’s go!”
Qiu Tong nodded at us: “I will be leaving first, everyone, goodbye!”
With that, Qiu Tong left first.
“Yi Ke, don’t rush —” Zhang Xiaotian called out to me.
“What’s the matter?” I stopped and looked at Zhang Xiaotian.
“I want to know how Yuan Duo is doing recently.” Zhang Xiaotian said.
I looked at Zhang Xiaotian. “You care about this a lot?”
“I… I just want to know. ” Zhang Xiaotian said guiltily, “After all, Yuan Duo and I did meet for a time.”
“Yuan Duo is still the same as now!” With that, I left.
Looking at Zhang Xiaotian right now, I felt speechless. I kept having the feeling that this was a tragic fate for him, even though he’s doing pretty well right now.
As they walked along the streets of Haizhou, the smell of the year got stronger and stronger. Carrefour, McKelley and Big Nourishing Hair were all bustling with activity, business was booming, and everyone was purchasing New Year’s items.
Looking at the endless stream of people carrying bags at the entrance of the supermarket and the few homeless people begging in the square in front of my door, I understood that the joys of the festival did not belong to the poor. The moments when all families were celebrating the Nine Prefectures together did not belong to the people at the bottom of the society.
Society is always unfair, there is always a gap between people, is always unequal.
Thinking about Yuan Duo’s parents, and thinking about how Zhang Xiaotian had to go home to her parents for many years, I thought about my parents at home, so I took out my cell phone and called home to inform my parents that I wouldn’t be home for the new year due to my work relationship.
Mom picked up the phone and listened to me. Although her voice sounded very unhappy and regretful, she didn’t say anything. She just told me to take care of my body and not worry about her and dad.
After finishing the call, I thought of Qiu Tong, of Little Pig, of those millions of orphans, and suddenly felt that I was happy. At least, on every reunion day, whether I went back home or not, I still had my parents to contact.
I don’t dare to imagine how Qiu Tong’s every Spring Festival had passed over the years.
Maybe Qiu Tong used all her effort and alcohol to drive away the endless loneliness and sorrow in her heart, to let herself not have the mind to think more at such a moment, and to let herself pass such a difficult time in a muddled and intoxicated state.
After returning, I immediately went to the Print Association to type out the three plans that Li Shun had given me, and prepared to submit them to Li Shun. It was time for the new year, and it was about time for it.
Just as I was about to go to Li Shun’s company, I heard someone call out to me from behind: “Hey, old partner, little brother — —”
Turning back, he saw that it was the Chairman Wang of the Red Hawk appliance Group.
When I saw this fellow, I became extremely furious. Bird person, you clearly agreed to book 10,000 newspapers with me, but in the end you changed your mind and were lured away by him. An untrustworthy fellow.
However, thinking about it, it makes sense. People who do business only seek to maximize benefits. Even though I have already reached an oral agreement with him, without an official contract, he can’t make anyone say anything.
Even though I thought this way, I was still unhappy in my heart. I greeted him in an indifferent manner: “Chairman Wang, it’s such a coincidence that I met you here!”
Chairman Wang seemed to see my unhappiness and coldness, but didn’t seem to care at all. He took the initiative to stretch out his hand and hold mine, shaking it a few times, he said: “Old brother, long time no see, what have you been busy with recently?”
“I’m not busy, just messing around!” “No,” I said.
“I heard from your company’s autumnum that you are doing pretty well. You have temporarily left Issuer for a while, and will be returning to work again after the new year.” The Chairman Wang said.
“When did you see autumnum?” I was surprised.
“Just a few days ago.” Chairman Wang seemed to be slightly embarrassed as he said, “autumnum took the initiative to visit me at my place. He said that he was visiting an old customer a year ago, and this caused me to feel embarrassed at the time.
I looked at Chairman Wang and thought, it’s necessary to embarrass you, that’s all. He never thought that Qiu Tong would specially visit this bird person last year. As for Qiu Tong visiting the Chairman Wang, I don’t really agree with him at the moment. I even thought that it was a waste of my energy to do so.
“But autumnum is always joking around, saying that regardless of whether we make it into a business deal or not, we are still friends. Even if we don’t order your newspapers, we are still clients, after all, we have interacted with each other before.” Chairman Wang continued to speak, “It’s rare for a little girl like autumnum to have such a broad heart. One look at her, and she must be someone who can achieve great things.”
Chairman Wang’s words made me feel a little ashamed, but at the same time, a little comfortable.
Sigh * Actually, I was regretting ordering the newspaper. I shouldn’t have ordered that city newspaper, so I wanted to go back and look for you guys, but I was afraid that I would get into trouble. Just when I was hesitating, the autumnum arrived. The Chairman Wang said again.
My eyes lit up. “What do you mean?”
“At that time, I was also confused. I was told that I had changed my mind and was only trying to take advantage of them, hoping that they would give me a lower price and a better condition, but I had missed out on a fatal place. The social influence of the city newspaper was not on the same level as that of the evening newspaper. “It seems like the mainstream media are the mainstream media. You can’t be stubborn about it.” Chairman Wang slapped the back of his head, “Sigh ~ ~ I have been regretting spending all this time to order the newspaper. The advertisement that gave me back was useless, I did not receive the most benefit in return.”
I couldn’t help but gloat in my heart.
I said, “Chairman Wang, there are no medicine for regret in this world.”
“Why not? “Yes!” Chairman Wang laughed, “When your autumnum came, I found the medicine for regret at her place, I bought it!”
“What do you mean?” “No,” I said.
Chairman Wang said, “Heh heh … Firstly, I left a backup plan when I booked the Haizhou’s Metropolis Daily. The contract was signed quarterly and the payment was quarterly, so I only paid the money for the first quarter of next year. At the same time, I also found a way to make things difficult for me. I took the opportunity to ask autumnum for a report, and did so according to the original condition that I had discussed with you. Unexpectedly, autumnum immediately agreed to it, starting from April 1st next year, and crossing years to the end of March the next year. ”
I suddenly understood, Qiu Tong was really great, the market share that was lost to Zhao Dajian after being played around by him, was taken back by Qiu Tong! Qiu Tong had not gone for free this time, she had gained a lot!
With so many good things to do, Chairman Wang took off his pants and fart to make himself look bad. After walking around, he finally came back.
However, a prodigal son cannot change his wealth, and since Chairman Wang has already joined our team, it’s still a good idea to correct his mistakes.
I replied, “Alright, Chairman Wang. We welcome you to continue to cooperate with us. It’s alright if you take a detour. You’ve returned. You’re still a good person.”
Chairman Wang laughed out loud and patted my shoulder. “You, seems like you are giving me a lecture.”
I also laughed: “I don’t dare, you are my big client, I will treat you well!”
Chairman Wang said, “I admire your brother’s thinking and eloquence. I talked about you with autumnum the other day …”
Hearing that, my heart tightened. Holy shit, you bird man, why are you mentioning me in front of Qiu Tong?
“Your autumnum does not seem to understand your abilities at all. He opened his eyes wide and listened to my detailed narration of your first visit to my place, listening very attentively.” The Chairman Wang said, “In my heart, I am ashamed of your brother. Thus, I added some extra details to add to your good side. When I hear your autumnum repeatedly nodding, my eyes release a light.”
I secretly complained in my heart, when suddenly I remembered that on the train to Tongliao, I fell asleep. When I opened my eyes, I saw Qiu Tong deep in thought while looking at me, could it be related to this matter? She must have been wondering what kind of person I was, and she must have thought I was a bit of a pimp, and that I was acting like a pimp.
The tail of a fox is always going to be exposed. Even though I have been trying my best to act cool, the law is so powerful that I can’t escape my fate of being caught.
Unknowingly, as Qiu Tong and I got closer to each other and things were developing around us, I discovered that my thinking was gradually changing.
Right now, I think, since I plan to return to Qiu Tong’s place to work in the next year, since I have a promise to protect Qiu Tong, since I do not wish for Qiu Tong to be defeated by Cao Li, then, I should take out my true abilities to work hard and do my best to support Qiu Tong. I’ve done it well, the result is mine, and it’s even more so for Qiu Tong.
Thinking about it this way, in terms of doing things, there is no need for me to continue acting cool. Furthermore, if I want to protect Qiu Tong, then the higher position I have in the company, the better. Being under Qiu Tong’s care, if I want to obtain a better and higher position, it’s impossible to rely on connections and connections. Qiu Tong will definitely not repay me because I’m her savior and promote me, I can only rely on my own abilities and performance to improve.
Of course, even though I have the thought of not covering up and doing well anymore, I’m not sure if I can really do well enough, and whether I can really get a promotion from Qiu Tong.
The future is bright and the road is winding. Although the road ahead will be bumpy and bumpy, my character has determined my style of doing things. If I want to do something, I will do it well.
