Chapter 10, The Most Familiar Stranger
In the office building of Jiangshan Group, a man wearing a white shirt and black trousers walked in, exuding a noble atmosphere, with slender legs and a step, as if his aura was fully open, it was as eye-catching as a star, causing the people around him to stop with bated breath.
Jiang Yimo paused at the entrance of the company lobby, and his eyes fell on the potted plants placed at the elevator entrance, the oversized potted plants are yellow butterfly blue with red butterfly blue, and bright green leaves, which are particularly bright and eye-catching, and it is difficult for people not to pay attention to it.
Looking at the large yellow flowers, Jiang Yimo felt very depressed, and the scene of his mother's funeral appeared in front of his eyes.
Xu Zhou hurriedly stepped forward to wait for instructions, he noticed that the boss's face was wrong, so he cautiously asked, "Mr. Jiang, what's wrong?"
"Who put this flower? The red flowers with the yellow flowers are really vulgar, can you have some aesthetics? Replace them for me immediately. Jiang Yimo's face sank, and every word was as cold as ice beads, making people shudder.
Xu Zhou beckoned to the security guard, "Hurry up and remove the flowers." ”
The sightseeing elevator is convenient and fast, and their vision gradually expands, and they can see neatly planned flower beds and lawns, and employees in uniform come and go, a vibrant one.
Jiang Yimo stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his house, and the sunlight was unobstructed. Condescendingly, you can overlook the entire CBD business district, and the surging river rushes to the sea in the distance.
"Dong ......" Secretary Vivian stood at the door of the president's office with information in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other, and knocked rhythmically on the wooden door of good material in front of her.
"Enter. A crisp voice came, and it was very magnetic.
Today is Vivien's second week at the company, because the president has been traveling abroad, and she only met me today. She has long heard that the president is handsome and compelling, which makes all women want to drip.
This president is unexpectedly young, and she is still rare to see such a peugeot figure. His side face is as quiet and beautiful as a flower, and he is already twenty-three years old, but when he is silent, his face still looks like a delicate young man.
When the previous secretary was leaving, her colleagues in the president's office made a meal for her, and Vivian drank with Xu Zhou all night, and at the same time told her a lot of gossip about the president.
To put it simply, Jiang Yimo received a master's degree in international business management from Harvard University at the age of 21. He started his business at the age of 17, and when his peers were still studying hard every day, he worked hard to run a business, and his business achievements and studies were equally amazing. Jiangshan Group was his first listed company, but he was only 23 years old this year, which is very remarkable.
"Mr. Jiang, hello, I'm the new secretary Vivian. Vivien introduced herself, smiling like she was the most beautiful, with two small dimples on her face.
Jiang Yimo hummed softly in a nasal voice, raised his head slightly, and when he saw the bright smile on his lips, his mood instantly improved, as if he was smiling with the other one.
He looked at Vivien, who was wearing a black dress with a neat low ponytail, simple and generous, and her outstanding appearance revealed intelligence. Because the previous secretary was pregnant and resigned, Xu Zhouxin found him a secretary.
Vivian put down the mug and documents in her hand, "Mr. Jiang, this is the document you want to sign, and the coffee you want." ”
Jiang Yimo glanced at the things on the table and nodded slightly.
This Mr. Jiang's eyes are really too lethal, and when he looks at people head-on, he obviously doesn't have a vicious expression, but in the depths of his eyes, there seems to be a thousand-year-old cold ballast.
After Vivian left the office, Xu Zhou came to Jiang Yimo's side to ask for credit, and said with a hippie smile, "How about the new secretary?
Jiang Yimo glanced at Xu Zhou, did not speak, and then looked down at the document in his hand.
Seeing that the boss reacted lightly, Xu Zhou also lost his interest in gossiping, and continued to do his own thing.
Xu Zhou was a little inexplicably afraid of him, and he couldn't say why. When Jiang Yimo was seventeen years old, Xu Zhou worked beside him, when Jiang Yimo was still half a child, but when he looked at people's expressions and eyes, and the tone and content when he spoke to people, he had a sharp scrutiny like an adult, sober and indifferent, which could not be underestimated. Thinking of this, Xu Zhou grinned a little embarrassedly.
The senior management of Jiangshan Group held a meeting in the conference room of the headquarters building in the afternoon, and at six o'clock in the afternoon, the participants were tired, and the only person in the entire conference room who was still in good spirits was Jiang Yimo, who listened attentively to the topics raised by the manager, and then made a decision very quickly.
Xu Zhou admires Jiang Yimo's point, he will be ten years younger than himself next year, and he will be more than one round younger than the executives present at the meeting. But every decision he made, every idea, convinced everyone.
Xu Zhou felt that the boss was really working hard, and he suspected that he didn't need to sleep, until he worked overtime all day and stayed up until his stomach bleed, and he rushed to the hospital. So his status in the company has soared, and even his assets have increased rapidly.
The mobile phone ringing on the conference table rang, Jiang Yimo looked at the mobile phone number and frowned slightly, but he still connected quickly.
"What? You're not kidding me, are you? Where are you now? I'll come right here. A simple answer, but Xu Zhou found that every time he said one more word, his brows furrowed very much. After hanging up the phone, he didn't even answer the phone number below, so he frowned at the phone number.
"I'm going to take care of something else now, and that's it for today's meeting. He never answered the phone, but put away the phone, and Xu Zhou could hear the constant vibration sound coming from his pocket.
The boss's gaze has always been very light, not indifferent, but fearless, but he avoids a phone call, Xu Zhou feels that the other party is a talent.
Jiang Yimo drove the Land Rover around in the open-air parking lot, but he didn't choose a suitable parking space.
Xu Zhou, who was sitting in the co-pilot, jokingly said, "Mr. Jiang, do you want to choose a girlfriend or a parking space?"
Jiang Yimo said leisurely, "These parking spaces are too sunny, find a cooler parking space." ”
Xu Zhou nodded thoughtfully, "Mr. Jiang is really thoughtful, there is an underground parking lot here." ”
In the underground parking lot of Tianmei Hospital, Tang Xueshan parked the car in the parking space, and suddenly saw a familiar figure flashing, but the parking lot was dimly lit, and she couldn't see his face clearly.
Tang Xueshan followed quickly, and the further he walked in, the closer he got to the light, waiting for the bright light as day to illuminate his face. She stared at it for a while, and then finally recognized the person in front of her.
In my lifetime, we will not be spared when we meet on a narrow road.
The moment the elevator door closed, Tang Xueshan quickly blocked it with her hand, and the elevator door slowly opened. There were a few people standing in the elevator, her eyes flickered, and the figure standing at the front instantly swept away her mind.
Tang Xueshan stared at him, she only felt that her heartbeat was abnormal, and she was so shocked that she almost forgot to breathe. The boy was already a mature and calm man, and he had a dazzling brilliance, he was not wearing a white T-shirt, he was wearing a haute couture suit, and he looked like a quiet painting wherever he went.
Xu Zhou has been an assistant to Jiang Yimo for six years, and he knows the relationship between Tang Xueshan and Jiang Yimo. He smiled politely at Tang Xueshan and did not speak.
Tang Xueshan smiled politely in return.
The people in the elevator also looked at her in a daze, and seemed to be frightened. The elevator door is just like that, and the people inside don't come down, and the people outside don't go up, it's like a deep hurdle, and no one wants to take that step.
Jiang Yimo's eyes were lowered, and his thick eyelashes cast a small shadow around his eyes, and the shadow did not fluctuate in the slightest. Still hesitating, he adjusted his mood and slowly spoke, "Long time no see!"
Tang Xueshan took a deep breath and stepped into the elevator, pretending to be calm, and said with a bright smile, "Long time no see!"
She looked at him greedily, and found that he was thinner than before, his already thin cheeks were thinner, his face was slightly pale, and his expression was more melancholy and gloomy.
Tang Xueshan felt that he was not like a businessman, but more like a literati, and only literati would have that kind of fatalistic sorrow.
She looked at Jiang Yimo's haggard face, and couldn't help but flash a trace of distress, her eyes were full of gentle light, "What's uncomfortable?"
"Nope. He looked at her with deep-set eyes, his voice tired.
She asked again uneasily, "Is it really okay?"
"It's fine. Jiang Yimo shook his head.
Tang Xueshan twisted her eyebrows lightly, and reprimanded her a little helplessly, "You didn't eat well, your stomach hurts, why don't you know how to take good care of yourself!"
"How many floors are you going to?" Jiang Yimo's voice was low and hoarse, her concern was too obvious, and his eyes were slightly red.
"7th floor. Tang Xueshan said and pressed the floor button, but he bumped into Jiang Yimo who was reaching out at the same time, and he quickly retracted his hand.
The two stood side by side, they hadn't seen each other for many years, they met at first glance, they were not familiar with each other's recent situation, they felt like strangers they met for the first time, and they were like the most familiar strangers.
After a short silence, Tang Xueshan found a topic and asked him in a relaxed tone, "How have you been doing in the past few years?"
"It's ok. His tone was flat.
The elevator door "ding" sounded.
"I'm here, I'm sorry, I'll go first. Jiang Yimo walked out.
Tang Xueshan saw that the floor he went to was the obstetrics and gynecology department, could it be that Lin Jinyu was pregnant? Her eyes instantly dimmed.
The familiar figure, the familiar face, the familiar voice, and even the tone of the voice were the same as before, unchanged.
Tang Xueshan spent five years trying to forget him, but the more she wanted to forget, the clearer he became. She felt that she was a fool, she couldn't love or forget, it was really uncomfortable.
Lin Jinyu was sitting at the door of the clinic of the obstetrics and gynecology department, and when she saw Jiang Yimo appearing, her eyes were full of smiles, and she went up to take Jiang Yimo's arm and handed him a test sheet.
Jiang Yimo's eyes swept over the test sheet, a little helpless, "You're not joking with me, are you?"
Lin Jinyu's face was full of joy, "How can this be a joke." ”
He frowned quietly, "We ......"
Jiang Yimo's meaning, Lin Jinyu is very clear, they have been together for five years, and he has never had a relationship with her. Every time she plucked up the courage to take the initiative, he said that the side effects of taking anti-depressant drugs were greatly refused. Only that time he drank too much and took her for another woman, who had always lived in his heart.
Lin Jinyu reminded with a smile, "On the day you had a party with Chairman Huang, you drank too much, did you forget?"
His face suddenly became a little unsightly, and his heart seemed to be tightened by something, and he was a little uncomfortable.
Lin Jinyu rarely saw him who had always collapsed on the top of Mount Tai and did not change color, there was such a deeply injured look in her eyes, she hesitated before she spoke, "If you don't want it, I'll go for surgery." ”
Jiang Yimo was silent for a long time, and finally said coldly, "No, let's give birth." ”
At this moment, Lin Jinyu seemed to see a sea of blooming flowers.
Jiang Yimo stood alone in the corridor of the hospital hall, with his left hand in his trouser pocket and a cigarette in his right hand, but he didn't smoke it, letting it burn quietly.
Xu Zhou drove the car over from the parking lot, Jiang Yimo turned around and was about to go down the steps, and then saw Tang Xueshan.
He was stunned, walked towards Tang Xueshan, threw the cigarette in his hand on the ground, and stepped on it with his foot. Looking up at Tang Xueshan, her eyes were slightly red, as if she had cried.
He wanted to say something, but suddenly he didn't want to say anything.
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Tang Xueshan smiled a little unnaturally, "Such a coincidence!"
He just said "um", not very enthusiastic, but he didn't mean to leave.
After a while, he finally spoke, "Why are you coming to the hospital?"
"Look at Grandpa. ”
"Is Grandpa well?"
"Rectal cancer, advanced. ”
Jiang Yimo was slightly stunned, was silent for a while, and asked in a low voice, "Are you still back?"
"Hmm. She seemed to have aphasia, and her whole state was a slump he had never seen before.
He saw that she looked dazed and helpless, and her heart felt as if she had been sharply pecked by a bird, and it hurt terribly.
"Why do you want to marry Lin Yanyu?"
Jiang Yimo was a little caught off guard by the ** she suddenly threw over, and he smiled bitterly, "Because I want to." ”
"Isn't it okay if you don't tie the knot?" she asked, rightly.
His face straightened and he replied without hesitation, "Of course not." ”
Jiang Yimo didn't feel proud because he was remembered like this, he only felt panic.
Although Tang Xueshan already knew the answer, her face couldn't help but darken. She nodded, rubbed his shoulders and left, which was probably why she couldn't forget him.
That night, Tang Xueshan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and the thought of reuniting with him made her body inexplicably hot. His face came to mind, and his voice echoed in his ears.
I dreamed of him last night, in the dream she still liked him, she wanted to hug him, but she woke up all of a sudden, full of regret and unwillingness.
