127 Chance encounter at a drinking party
When Yan Bin said this, Miss M and I were stunnedMiss M was surprised and said, "You know? No way, Tan is always Malaysian, just came to China." ”
Mr. Chen also said in stiff Mandarin: "Yes, Mr. Yan knows me? ”
Yan Bin sneered, and the young lady felt the subtlety, so she asked, "Yan Bin, is there any misunderstanding?"
What I didn't expect was that Yan Bin's face changed so quickly, he instantly changed his smile, stretched out his hand and took the initiative to say to Mr. Chen: "I'm sorry, you and my old acquaintance really look too similar, so I was stunned for a moment just now, sorry, sorry." I'm Yan Bin, and this is my business card. ”
This...... Yan Bin just now clearly has a deep hatred for this Mr. Chen, I have never seen him lose his temper to such an extent. Miss M was also stunned by his sudden change, and she and I looked at each other, completely confused.
That Mr. Chen was a little embarrassed, but he immediately understood, took Yan Bin's business card, and then said in non-standard Mandarin: "A misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, Mr. Yan, fortunately." ”
Yan Bin hurriedly corrected and said: "Mr. Yan's name is too big, I'm just the department director, and I can't afford this name, just call me Yan Bin." ”
The two exchanged pleasantries very businessly, and Miss M and I didn't need to say anything when we were next to me, and I saw that Yan Bin's fists were clenched very tightly during the whole process, as if he wanted to reach out and punch each other at any time. The smile on his face has never been so fake, it looks far-fetched if he doesn't smile, he really tried his best to act...... What was that old acquaintance of his who had such a grudge against him that he would lose his temper when he saw anyone of similar looks?
Under the recommendation of Miss M, we soon finished talking with Mr. Chen, Yan Bin and he exchanged a glass of wine, and then Miss M introduced us to several other merchants. It can be seen that except for Mr. Chen, the other Yanbin are very relaxed in the chat.
I felt a little hungry, and after saying hello to Yan Bin, I went to the tea break area to get some pastries, the pastries at the reception were small and exquisite, and I was so busy choosing pastries that I accidentally bumped into someone.
We said "I'm sorry" at the same time, and when we looked up, we found that it was actually the former director Chen Haoshuang, and this time, everyone was stunned.
I opened my mouth first, "Director", she smiled and nodded, looked at me from top to bottom, and then said, "Yes, recently, the whole person feels very different from before, I don't recognize it." ”
I smiled and said, "What's the matter, you've won the prize, Director." Director, you also look refreshed, how are you doing?"
She laughed, "I'm just the same." Why, are you still working under Yan Bin?"
I said, "yes, it's always been there, no, I'm going to accompany him to the party." ”
She said, "yes...... Seems to be mixing well. ”
Her presence reminded me of a person, and I tentatively asked her, "Are you here alone?"
She shook her head, and she said, "Of course not, I came with Mr. Li, where is he over there, do you want to meet him?"
In the past, Li Jinnian took a lot of care of me, and Chen Haoshuang naturally knew it, although he didn't know my relationship with him, but he always knew that we had some origins. I just wanted to shake my head, but I felt that it was inappropriate, so I said, "Of course you can, but I don't know if he has the strength to see me." ”
Chen Haoshuang said: "Then let's finish the pastries first, and then you come with me and go over to say hello to Mr. Li." ”
I nodded and said "yes", finished the pastry in my hand with her, and went with her to meet Li Jinnian. I hadn't seen him for a long time, and he seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden, and he had never felt this way before.
Who was he chatting with, Chen Haoshuang said loudly: "Mr. Li, look at who I met." ”
Chen Haoshuang shouted like this, Li Jinnian turned his head and saw that it was me, first stunned, then smiled slightly, and then said, "Shu Hua, it's you." Long time no see. ”
I nodded and said very respectfully, "Mr. Li, I didn't expect you to come here too." ”
He said hello to the gentleman he was chatting with, then walked straight up to me, looked me closely, and said, "Well, yes, this dress is outstanding." ”
Chen Haoshuang echoed: "Yes, Shu painting is growing in reverse, and the more you live, the younger you get." ”
Li Jinnian also nodded, and then said, "Yes, yes, every time we meet, I feel different." Shu Hua, are you still working in that company recently?"
I said, "yes, how are you doing?"
He smiled and said, "Not bad." Haoshuang, you have to go ahead of time, I'll talk to Shu Hua for a while. ”
Chen Haoshuang hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, then you guys chat, I'll go over there and have a look." ”
After speaking, Chen Haoshuang left. Li Jinnian squinted at me again, and then said, "Hmm...... It's getting more and more feminine. ”
I smiled awkwardly and said, "No, even for this kind of occasion, you can't dress too casually." ”
"That's nature," he said. Who are you coming with?
I nodded, he looked at his watch, and he said, "It's still early, let's go and stand on the balcony for a while and talk, okay?"
I didn't particularly want to go, so I said, "It's a little cold on the balcony, and I don't have much to wear." ”
He smiled and said, "Okay then." How many phone numbers do you have? When I come to City A again, I'll talk to you and catch up with you. With that, he glanced at my chest again. At that moment, I don't know why, I felt a little pitiful for him.
A man who is on the top, a man with infinite scenery on the surface, the forbearance and misery behind him can't be humane for outsiders. I used to be his interpretation flower, an outlet for him to vent, but now I really don't know who he can talk to about those anguish and vent those unreleased desires...... Maybe no one knows anymore, otherwise why is his gaze so evil, it is clearly a look that has been suppressed for a long time.
I couldn't bear to refuse, but I really didn't want to have anything to do with him again, and I didn't want to touch everything in the past anymore, so I said, "My phone number is still the same as before, and I haven't changed it." ”
At that moment, he was a little angry, and he said: "Shu Hua, you lied to me, I have called several times, and that number is already empty!"
The lie was exposed, and I had no choice but to say, "I'm sorry, Mr. Li." I've said goodbye to the past, and I think it's better for us not to associate with each other in private except for business. ”
His eyes dimmed instantly, and at this time, there was another group of people next to him who were close to him, and I was relieved to stay away, he looked at me deeply, and then continued to maintain his image as a high-ranking boss. I walked quickly to Yan Bin, he turned his head to look at me, and asked me, "Why did you go, and you went for so long?"
I was a little depressed and said, "I've met the former director and CEO." ”
Unexpectedly, he said with some joy: "Yes, Chen Haoshuang is also here, where is I'm going to find her." ”
I said, "Then you go over there to look for it, I met her in the tea break area, and then I chatted with Mr. Li, and she drifted somewhere else." ”
He said, "You're not with me?"
I shook my head and I said, "I'm a little tired, I'll find a place to sit down, you can go." ”
Not long after I rested, he came over, with a relaxed look on his face, he said: "I asked Chen Haoshuang to have supper together, the time is almost up, let's say hello to Miss M, let's go back first." ”
I stood up as if I was about to be amnestied, nodded vigorously, and said, "Okay, then let's go." ”
Thinking about what felt wrong, I asked again: "You won't make an appointment with Mr. Li, right?"
He said: "That's not true, his status, he won't accompany us to eat skewers." ”
I said, "That's good." ”
When he saw that something was wrong with me, he said, "What's the matter, every time you mention Mr. Li, you have this expression?
I prevaricated: "Yes, the top boss, of course I'm afraid." ”
We chatted while looking for Miss M in the crowd, Yan Bin still greeted and kept saying hello all the way, and when I met the customers we had worked with, he also introduced me to him, and when he said goodbye to Miss M, Yan Bin called Chen Haoshuang and told her where we were waiting for her, and then we came out.
We waited in front of the car for a while, Chen Haoshuang came out, Yan Bin and I waved to her, she came over excitedly, Yan Bin said, "Haoshuang, which hotel do you stay in? I'll send you there first, you all change into light clothes, and then we'll go to eat skewers." ”
Chen Haoshuang reported the name of the hotel, took my hand affectionately, as if we had a good relationship in the past, and asked me some questions about my current work with concern.
She and Yan Bin seem to have a good relationship, and the two of them chatted for a long time about work and life. Yan Bin drove us all the way to the hotel where Chen Haoshuang was staying, and urged me to say, "You also bring your clothes up and change them, I'll wait for you in the car, hurry up." ”
I said in distress, "But I didn't bring any other clothes." ”
He glared at me, then said, "There's a white bag behind the chair, I've got a set for you, hurry up, get out of the car and change it." ”
I didn't expect him to do this, Chen Haoshuang was even more surprised, she asked Yanbin: "You kid, are you so good to your female subordinates?"
Yan Bin smiled ambiguously and said, "Of course not, Shu Hua is an exception." ”
Chen Haoshuang glanced at me, his eyes were a little complicated. I smiled and didn't say a word, picked up the white bag from the back seat and found a brand new pair of jeans and a shirt inside.
He said, "Put on this and your coat, it won't be cold, go and change." Be careful when changing the skirt, don't draw the string, then the whole skirt will be ruined. ”
I chimed in nicely, "Got it." ”
Chen Haoshuang quipped: "Yo, these two people." I don't know, I thought it was a small couple, so harmonious. ”
