Chapter 176: Leaving Sorrow
Huo Jingchen raised his head, stared at her eyes, and asked as if he was confused, "What about confession." ”
Lin Zien felt strange, "I also want to remind me of this?"
Huo Jingchen hesitated for a while, and nodded in embarrassment, "Well, I ate too much just now, and I will be slow to react." ”
Lin Zien gritted her teeth and swore that there was absolutely no trace of a smile on her face.
One was calm on the surface but laughed wildly in his heart, and the other was calm on the surface to hide his stupidity, and neither of the two of them spoke again for a while.
Later, Lin Zien took the initiative to relieve the siege with a clear conscience, "You ate the leftover steak on my plate, which is indeed a bit much, but you can think slowly, I'm not in a hurry." ”
Huo Jingchen looked up at the ceiling and seemed to be thinking, time passed by second, Lin Zien had a bad premonition, and every time he thought about the result, she was caught off guard.
Huo Jingchen thought about it for a long time, every second was torment for Lin Zien, her brain was running at high speed and thinking about how to deal with Huo Jingchen.
After a while, Huo Jingchen looked at her, his eyes were extremely deep, "Canghai." ”
"Huh?"
"I'm going to confess to you that I've hidden something from you. ”
Lin Zien looked at him, a trace of imperceptible nervousness flashed in his eyes, "What's the matter?"
"You won't have to go to work at the exchange tomorrow. Huo Jingchen said it lightly.
"Why?"
"Because your contract with the futures exchange has expired, you also received a letter from the futures exchange in the morning that you will not renew the contract. And he had already signed for her, according to international labor law, signing the letter means that she has known and will not pursue it again.
She was stunned, "How is that possible?"
As the new manager of the trading department of the Chicago Futures Exchange, she has only been in office for seven days after she has completed her calculations, and even if she has no merit, it is not a big deal, right? Since she has no fault, she was still invited by major financial weeklies to visit two days ago, how could she be swept away by the futures exchange again?
Wait, what did Huo Jingchen say just now?
Contract expiration?
She just signed the employment contract on Monday, and even if it is a probationary period, there is still half a year, how can it expire in seven days? Not to mention that this seventh day is still a weekend? Why is this so weird?
Huo Jingchen didn't explain, just looked somewhere.
Lin Zien sighed in her heart, and immediately followed his line of sight, only to find that there was a special letter printed with the words Chicago Futures Exchange lying on the sofa opposite, she immediately rushed over to pick it up and tore it open, and pulled out a notification letter.
Ms. Lin Zien, since you received this letter, the Chicago Futures Exchange has reached an agreement with you to terminate the employment relationship amicably, and on the issue of economic compensation, the Exchange is fully in accordance with the relevant provisions of the International Labor Law, and thank you again for your hard work and outstanding contributions to the Exchange. At the same time, I wish you better development in the future!
She was stupid on the spot.
Huo Jingchen reached out and took the letter from her hand, threw it aside, and then reached out and patted her shoulder, "Let's talk." ”
She avoided his hand, instinctively feeling that something was wrong and asked her to think about it.
After a while, Lin Zien raised his head, stared at him, and said slowly, "You read the letter I wrote to my grandfather?"
Huo Jingchen confessed very cooperatively, "Grandpa sandwiched your letter in a contract and asked Su Li to transfer it to me, and it is difficult to see such a conspicuous white envelope." ”
She nodded, as if she had an understanding, "You asked my grandfather to ask me to return to China to take over the fund company, but I asked my grandfather to resign in writing." ”
So, here's how it should be -
Last Saturday, when he was in New York, he already knew that not only would she not return to Jiangnan, but also prepared to accept an appointment from the futures exchange on Monday, so he reached some kind of agreement with his grandfather that she didn't know the content of, and then he asked his grandfather to help, and then there was a friendly performance and a grand event. However, how could she not feel very angry or difficult to accept at the moment? It seemed that the previous thief's heart was gone when she saw that letter.
She breathed a sigh of relief without moving, "You're so anxious to trap me in the middle of losing my job again?"
"It's not unemployment, it's called retirement. Huo Jingchen accompanied the careful comfort, and the words changed, "Come back with me." ”
Lin Zien snorted slightly, "Where to go back?"
"Back to our home in Jiangnan. Huo Jingchen brought up the old words again, and when she saw that she raised her eyebrows and wanted to refute it, she immediately smiled and added, "This is also arranged by your grandfather." ”
Although Lin Zien's face was silent, he sighed angrily in his heart: This old man really turned his elbow outward to the end.
"What else did my grandfather arrange?"
"Your new position. ”
This news stunned Lin Zien.
Huo Jingchen reached out and took a cherry from the fruit bowl and put it into her mouth that was half open in surprise, wrapped his hands loosely around her waist, and whispered without waiting for her to have a seizure, "I will return to China tomorrow." ”
Lin Zien tried hard to eat the cherries in his mouth, frowning, "So fast, have you found your documents and luggage?"
Her reaction seemed to make Huo Jingchen very happy, "Well, I went out just now to pick up those documents and luggage, look, they are all over there." After speaking, as if to prove that he was not lying, he deliberately pointed to the side of the sofa on the other side.
Lin Zien glanced at the suitcase very sideways, and nodded, "See, it's really time for your luggage to come back, the owner is going back to China, and it will appear immediately." After speaking, he tilted his head and smiled and asked, "Do you really want to go back?"
"Well, if you don't go back, my grandfather will fly to your grandfather in person to ask for someone. During the days when he left China, although he kept in touch with the domestic headquarters through video calls and computers, after all, there was a difference between dealing with it in person, so some things still alarmed his grandfather Huo Ran, Huo Ran could call at night to ask about Yun Xiaotian's current situation, which showed that he could really fly at any time.
Lin Zien nodded, his fingers gently stroked the pattern on the long purple T-shirt on his chest, and suddenly asked casually, "What time is it tomorrow?"
Glancing at her hand on the placket of her chest, Huo Jingchen hooked her lips, "Ten o'clock in the morning." ”
Ten o'clock? Lin Zien's beautiful eyes were shining, and she asked with a smile, "May I ask Mr. Huo, is there a 10 o'clock flight from Chicago to Jiangnan?"
Huo Jingchen's hand around her waist suffocated slightly, and then he chuckled again and kissed her lightly on the lips, "I know that even if I hide it from your grandfather, I can't hide it from you." In her dodging left and right, she successfully kissed her eyebrows and cheeks several times one after another, and asked in a low voice. "When did you find out, wife?"
"Who's your wife...... Your sudden proposal, your driver, your assistant, and a group of people from Hula followed you to hand you flowers, and helped prohibit reporters from taking pictures, besides, they all spoke English, but there was no little interspersed with authentic Chinese......"
"Oh?" This meticulous observation and judgment came from the mouth of the stubborn person in front of him? Huo Jingchen's heart was warm and soft, and even wondered lest this person change his mind after he flew back to China, should he not leave the ground as a prison?" "Just a few words of Chinese, you can tell that I came by private jet with an assistant?" The long arm took her soft and delicate body into his arms, and his lips were against her lips, feeding and biting each other, sticking and entangled," Can I think that it's because you have a deep affection for me that you pay attention to my every move?"
"It's not...... It's a habit ......" Lin Zien's face was like a peach blossom, and his long eyelashes drooped slightly, "Also, you clearly said that your documents were all lost and you were penniless, but you bought so many things later, and you pretended to swipe my card, but there will be a text message notification for the consumption record of my card, you obviously bought a bunch of things that time, and the text message notification only swiped more than 10,000, I remember very clearly, more than 10,000 is the money of your tie, and the others, you are not the owner, that store can't give you away for nothing......"
"My family is so smart...... Huo Jingchen chuckled again, his eyes were shallow and bright, and his handsome face was a little charming, yes, it was charming, and he smiled as low as Sanskrit, "Wife, it is my greatest wish to have you by my side all my life......"
Blinking with big eyes, Lin Zien made a look of being a fan of money, "But my wish is to receive a lot of gifts before I am willing to turn back, otherwise, if you want me to go back to Jiangnan, it is definitely two words, don't talk about it!"
"Gifts, this is easy. Huo Jingchen looked at her with a smile, "As long as you are willing to go back, I will definitely give you a room full of gifts." ”
A room?" "What gift?"
"That's ......" Huo Jingchen whetted people's appetites before smiling and spitting out two words, "instant noodles!"
Lin Zien also glanced at him with a smile, "In this case, I can only ask you to look through the autumn water in Jiangnan, and I don't plan to go back if I finish eating the room full of instant noodles...... Oh yes, maybe you don't know it yet, I haven't eaten instant noodles since I was a kid, so I'm going to eat it at the rate of one noodle a day, hum ......"
Huo Jingchen sighed, "You are so ruthless." ”
"Obviously, you gave me instant noodles first...... Before Lin Zien finished speaking, Huo Jingchen took advantage of her inattention, hooked her shoulder with one hand, and held the back of her head with the other, ending this unnutritious conversation in the most straightforward way.
Between her lips and teeth, there was the fragrance of fruit, if there was nothing, but it made her feel a little intoxicated, as if only she and him were left in the world. After the kiss, Huo Jingchen hugged her tightly, a smile on the corner of his mouth was very proud, and with a little satisfaction, his voice was low and dark, "The topic of instant noodles is over." After a slight pause, the wings of his nose rubbed against her hair, "Will you come with me tomorrow?"
"But...... You left so suddenly, I wasn't mentally prepared for ......"
Huo Jingchen sighed and asked again, "Then tell me, how long will your mind be prepared?" Or rather, when can you determine the return date?"
"This......" Lin Zien's head rested on his chest, and his fingers unconsciously circled around the pattern on his chest, and the whole person still didn't seem to have a recollection, and it took a while before he was vague, "Although thanks to you...... I was swept away by the futures exchange, but ...... I still have to go back and say goodbye to the people who helped me, and then pack up my personal belongings in the office, and besides, grandpa will come back on Wednesday, and when I talk to my grandpa about some things about the fund company, and then talk to my classmates and friends here, what do you say...... It's going to take more than half a month......"
"No, I can't. Huo Jingchen denied it. Half a month is more than two weeks, just kidding, don't say you can't wait, but just think about it for more than two weeks It's terrible not to see her, it's really going to take so long, it will definitely torture him to death.
