Chapter 43: Love Brain
Of course, my sudden decision caused an uproar, but fortunately, the shareholders did not know my true face, so they supported my decision regardless of my reasons.
In fact, I'm more worried about Zheng Yuanqiao.
After Zheng Yuanqiao left that day, the more I thought about it, the more scared I became, anyway, I shouldn't have told him that I was illiterate, no matter how much he would laugh at me in his heart, the most important thing for me was the management of the Gu family, which worried me the most.
So I hurried back and Zheng Yuanqiao before he could do anything.
And Zheng Yuanqiao also began to show danger signals, and in the next two days, he didn't come to do a "work report" with me, and I don't know what he did.
After everyone on the board of directors agreed, I dared to look at Zheng Yuanqiao, of course I didn't inform him in advance of this matter, so at the beginning of the meeting, he was still in charge of the work of the meeting as usual, so this news was also very surprising to him.
Zheng Yuanqiao didn't say a word, just sat silently, the directors would not think that my decision was wrong, so they thought that Zheng Yuanqiao had done something wrong, and he just sat quietly, bearing the probing eyes from the directors.
I didn't expect Zheng Yuanqiao to react like this, so I felt a little sorry for him when I looked at him like this.
"As for the next CEO, I intend to appoint Zhou Huaiyan as the next CEO. ”
But there is only one point of guilt, and the position of CEO cannot be vacant, so I did not explain why I wanted to remove Zheng Yuanqiao from his post, and said directly.
Fortunately, Zhou Huaiyan is not a stranger to them, and his relationship with me is well known, so the directors have no opinion on my decision.
Except for one person.
As soon as I finished speaking, I saw Zhou Huaiyan's eyes widen and look at me.
I smiled lightly, and I didn't tell him about letting Zhou Huaiyan be the leader of the Gu family, but I don't think he would refuse.
This is not a false position, but a real power, and Zhou Huaiyan will not refuse.
And sure enough, Zhou Huaiyan just glared at me in surprise for a while, and then turned his face away, I smiled, and took the lead in applauding his appointment.
In this piece of applause, there was naturally no Zheng Yuanqiao.
"Zheng Yuanqiao. ”
Gu Wanxin. ”
As soon as the meeting ended, I stopped Zheng Yuanqiao, but at the same time, another voice sounded behind me, it was Zhou Huaiyan calling me.
I can probably guess the reason why Zhou Huaiyan called me, it is nothing more than to ask me what I want to do like this suddenly, but it is not him who is urgent at this time, I have not talked to Zheng Yuanqiao alone until now, and at the moment when he was just removed, there will definitely be many people who want to find out the reason why he was removed by me from him, I can't let others take advantage of this loophole, so I had to say to Zhou Huaiyan: "I'm sorry, you wait for me for a while." ”
Zhou Huaiyan frowned, obviously dissatisfied, but at this time I couldn't take care of him at all, Zheng Yuanqiao was really angry, and he didn't care about me, he walked straight to the front, and I had to chase after him.
"Is there anything else you want to say to me?" It wasn't until I entered the office that Zheng Yuanqiao said the first thing of the day to me.
Sure enough, I was angry.
"Why did you suddenly remember to make him president?" he added, "Aren't you afraid that he will stab you in the back?"
I have to say that Zheng Yuanqiao's words hit me in the sore spot, he has been the president of the Gu family for so long, and he is not unaware of the reason why I handed over the Gu family to him, an outsider.
"You don't have to worry about it. I coldly rejected his words, and then softened my tone and said to him: "I know that today's incident has hurt you, but I think you also know the reason why I did this, I really can't let you stay here like this, but you don't have to worry about ......"
"Why not?"
As soon as I was halfway through my words, I was interrupted by Zheng Yuanqiao, and I was stunned for a moment, only then did I notice that I didn't know when he and I were so close, and there were only two people in the office.
I instantly alarmed me, but by the time I wanted to escape, it was too late, and Zheng Yuanqiao had already blocked me at the door with his height advantage.
"Shouldn't you feel that it's just right? With me here, at least I can ensure that your capital will not disappear, so that you can continue to keep Zhou Huaiyan, right?"
Zheng Yuanqiao is really much smarter than I thought, and I can see at a glance what I have kept him by my side for so many years.
"But what's the use of that?" I chuckled, looked at him, and said, "I can keep him with money, but he won't belong to me, and I've proven it in the past two years, so why should I continue?"
"So you think that handing over the power to him will make a difference?" Zheng Yuanqiao hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "You will be killed by him." ”
Die?
It seems that this is the worst way, and I don't think there's anything wrong with it, which is exactly what I wanted.
"You don't have to worry about it. I pressed my hand on his chest, and then pushed hard, Zheng Yuanqiao didn't know if it wasn't forced, or thought that I would be so easily frightened by him, anyway, I unexpectedly pushed him away easily.
I was still relieved that there was no pressure on my body, I stood up straight, and said, "I have paid you well in the past two years, and with the Gu family as a springboard, it is not a problem where you want to go next, that is to say, I have not treated you badly in the past two years." I paused, and finally said, "Goodbye." ”
After saying that, I turned around and pulled the door to leave, I also felt that my farewell was very clean and not muddy, and I didn't have any feelings for Zheng Yuanqiao, so I broke it off early, and it was polite to him.
But I was also afraid that Zheng Yuanqiao would catch up again, so I quickly opened the door and walked out, and after closing the door again, I breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked to my office to find Zhou Huaiyan.
And to my relief, Zhou Huaiyan was really in my office, waiting for me.
When he saw me come in, he raised his chin at me, and he didn't need to say anything more, I knew he was waiting for my explanation with a single movement.
But what do you want to explain?
The reason why I removed Zheng Yuanqiao, or the reason why I appointed him as Gu's president?
"Zheng Yuanqiao said that he likes me, although I didn't just know it, but he confessed to me a few days ago, so I don't think I can continue to keep him," After thinking about it, I still decided to tell the truth, I want to be an honest person at least in front of Zhou Huaiyan, "There is also the reason why you want to be the president of the Gu family, on the one hand, I need someone to help me take over the work of the Gu family after Zheng Yuanqiao leaves, and you also know that I won't, on the other hand, I don't want to continue to press you like this, you should also have your own things to do." ”
After I said this, Zhou Huaiyan didn't react for a long time, and under such silence, I was also a little embarrassed, as if I had given him a great grace.
It was not possible to remain silent like this, and it was at this time that my attending doctor called and asked me when I was going to the hospital.
Although I was in a hurry to come back this time because of Zheng Yuanqiao, it was not false to say that I went to the hospital for a check-up, this phone call was considered to have saved me, I stood up and said to him: "I'll go to the hospital first, you stay here, and just take over the work with Zheng Yuanqiao." ”
Zhou Huaiyan moved, and he didn't know whether he wanted to follow me or what, but in the end he didn't say anything, and sat on the sofa without moving.
I didn't expect him to come with me, the baby was gone, and I didn't want to take him to the obstetrics and gynecology department, as long as I was alone from the beginning to the end.
However, when I was in the hospital, I received a call from Shen Changying.
I was not surprised at all to receive a call from him, Zheng Yuanqiao was arranged for me by him from the beginning, and he must have been doing the same work as his eyeliner for so many years, so it is not surprising that after I removed him, it would not be strange that he would report to Shen Changying.
"What's going on?"
Fortunately, as soon as I came up, Shen Changying didn't immediately accuse me of doing something wrong, but patiently asked me what was going on first.
I had to tell him the reason I told Zhou Huaiyan again, but I didn't expect him to be surprised that Zheng Yuanqiao liked me at all.
"If it weren't for the fact that he liked you, he was sick in the brain and used you as a money-making machine," Shen Changying couldn't help but say in a vulgar tone, "I left him behind because I took a fancy to him in the first place, and you kicked him for me, what are you thinking?"
I didn't expect that he not only knew, but knew it very early, I was even more surprised, and hurriedly asked him when, if it was really two years, it would be too surprising to me, would I be so slow that I didn't find out for so long?
"I don't remember the specific time," Shen Changying said, "Why are you still asking this, it doesn't matter, what matters is where do you find another person to work as a coolie for you for free? Not to mention Zhou Huaiyan, I can't agree to him." ”
I didn't expect Shen Changying's attitude of completely rejecting Zhou Huaiyan, I smiled and said, "Just him, who else can there be, you know that I won't do this." ”
"You don't have to worry about this, there are people on my side, remember, don't let Zhou Huaiyan touch anything in your company, you know?"
I laughed helplessly, so I had to tell him that I had asked Zheng Yuanqiao to hand over the things in the company to him, of course, I also knew that since Shen Changying had already called me, he must have done something.
"Brother, can you leave this matter alone?" In desperation, I had to say, "Let him go with the company or something, at most he transferred all his property, don't I still have you?"
"I don't have the money to support you," Shen Changying refused, but I could also hear that he was angry, but he was also really anxious, he said: "I'll let the far bridge top the company first, where are you now, I'll go find you." ”
It seemed that this was not possible without an interview, and I had no choice but to tell him the address.
And hearing that I was in the hospital, Shen Changying was about to get angry again, but he endured it first and said, "You wait for me." ”
"Good. Listening to his gritted tone, I didn't feel afraid, but rather calm.
At this time, my test results came out, but fortunately, the medicine flowed cleanly, there were no sequelae, and then I lived as usual.
The child left so easily, and I couldn't help but feel a little lonely when I realized this fact, and I sat on the hospital bench and waited quietly for Shen Changying to come over.
Shen Changying didn't take long to arrive, and when he saw me sitting outside the obstetrics and gynecology department, he glanced at the sign of the obstetrics and gynecology department, he should know what I was here for, but he was still a little uncomfortable as a big man on such an occasion, and only after touching his nose did he ask me, "Are you okay?"
"All right," I nodded at him, stood up again, and said to him, "Let's go." ”
Shen Changying drove over by himself and didn't bring anyone else, maybe it was to talk to me about this matter alone, but what I wanted to say was already very clear, and Shen Changying also knew, so I used silence to express my insistence.
"Has your mouth been sewn shut shut by threads and you haven't spoken?"
In the end, it was Shen Changying who couldn't help but break the silence.
I couldn't help but laugh when I heard his angry words, and said, "Didn't I already tell you everything I wanted to say?" ”
I rarely used a coquettish tone for him, because I also knew that if it wasn't for Shen Changying back then, I wouldn't have taken revenge so easily to take over the Gu family, and now although he has nothing to do with the Gu family, I now say that I want to give away the country he once beat down, and he will naturally be unhappy.
"After a while, Li Yu and I will go back, and I will leave someone here to take care of you, but I won't have too much energy to take care of you. After a while, Shen Changying said.
They are going back so soon, which makes me a little surprised, and thinking about it carefully, I have been busy with my own affairs during this time, and I don't have much time to get together with them, of course, Shen Changying is a busy person, and I don't want to disturb him often, but when the moment of parting comes, I still regret not being able to meet him a few more times.
"You don't have to worry," but I still said, "how old I am and I still need you to take care of me, don't worry, I'll be fine." ”
Although I said this, Shen Changying's eyes when he looked at me didn't mean that, I was a little uncomfortable by his eyes, and the kind of eyes that contained pity and incomprehension and finally evolved into a kind of pity, made me hairy all over.
Am I pathetic?
It seems that Shen Changying has loved to look at me like this since a long time ago, and I don't know why he looks at me like this, it's just that I feel pitiful that I am so stupid and in love with someone who doesn't love me, and he has persuaded me to give up early more than once.
But I don't know why I should give up?
Zhou Huaiyan no matter what, the person is still mine, although the heart is not here with me, but I can at least see him every day, isn't this much better than many people who have a crush on but can't even touch a real person?
"Okay," I don't want to argue with Shen Changying about anything, in the end, we don't think the same, I'm like this, in common terms, it's "love brain", they can't understand me, I can't understand them, so I simply parted ways, I opened the car door with one hand, and said: "The doctor said that I still have to recuperate, I'll go back first, you drive carefully." ”
After saying that, I pushed the car door and got out of the car, and after getting out of the car, I deliberately did not go in front of his car.
And I didn't say that completely to escape, after getting out of Shen Changying's car, I found my car and asked the driver to send me home.
I didn't do much, but I felt very tired, and I didn't know if it was due to today's inspection.
When I got home, I didn't do anything, I said to my mother, who was busy in the kitchen, and asked her not to ask me to eat, so I went straight into the room, poured into the big bed, and fell asleep not long after.
When I woke up again, it was already night, I took my phone and looked at the time, and found that it was already past eight o'clock, it was completely dark, and the whole room was quiet and black.
I hurriedly got out of bed, fortunately, I didn't go far to see the lights downstairs, and then I got closer and took a closer look, Zhou Huaiyan was sitting downstairs in the restaurant eating dinner, and Wang Ma was talking to him about something.
"The young lady is up. "It was also Wang Ma who discovered me first, and following her voice, Zhou Huaiyan also looked at me, her eyes were very calm, but it made me feel very relieved.
"Miss, you slept for an afternoon, I was worried to death, I went up to see you a few times, and I was afraid of waking you up to sleep," as soon as I walked downstairs, Wang Ma began to nag, I didn't think she talked too much before, but at this time it sounded very reassuring.
"Sit down, I just happened to cook supper for him when my husband came back, and none of you made it to dinner, I thought you would come back to eat together, in vain I prepared so much......" Wang Ma turned around and went to the kitchen again.
After Wang Ma left, there were really two people left, me and Zhou Huaiyan, when Wang Ma was nagging, he just drank porridge quietly, and didn't say anything, I glanced at him, and I heard Wang Ma say that he had just come back, and I don't know why it was delayed for so long, was Zheng Yuanqiao deliberately making things difficult for him?
"Why did you come back so late?"
"Why did you sleep that long?"
The two of us spoke almost at the same time, I was stunned, I didn't expect Zhou Huaiyan to take the initiative to care about me, but when I saw Zhou Huaiyan helplessly lowered his head to stir the porridge in the bowl, I couldn't help but regret that it was not the right time to speak.
At this time, Wang's mother also brought porridge over, and the hot and steaming lean porridge exuded a warm aroma, which immediately aroused my appetite.
"Be careful. After saying this, Wang Ma retreated in acknowledgment.
I glanced at Wang Ma's back and thanked her very much.
"Maybe I'm a little tired," it was only then that I answered Zhou Huaiyan's question, "I didn't even know I slept for so long." ”
"Well," Zhou Huaiyan replied softly, I thought he would say anything more, so I didn't eat and waited for him, thinking that he would also answer my questions politely, but I waited for a while, only waited until he finished eating, picked up the empty bowl and stood up, and said, "What are you still doing in a daze, eat." ”
