"How's the contract going?" Qin Jiami's voice came from the phone: "Uncle asked me how your health is, and he was very worried about you." ”

I turned my head to look at the woman who was already sitting in the conference room, then smiled and said, "The share agreement and the company cooperation agreement will be signed immediately." I'll call you when I get back, bye. ”

I pushed open the glass door of the conference room, and the woman sitting inside immediately stood up and stretched out her hand to me: "Hello, I am Lin Xuan, the chairman of the Lin family. ”

“HarlanZhang。 I shook her hand and sat down across from her.

Lin Xuan looked at me meaningfully, and then said with a smile: "The original capital increase case has become a cooperation between the two sides, I was originally curious about who Senrui would send over to discuss the signing of the contract, but I didn't expect that it would be Senrui's future heir to go on a trip in person, it seems that your company is also very sincere about this cooperation." ”

"Of course, Lin's has the top jewelry design concept and exquisite design technology, and there is a broad market in China, and Senrui has strong funds and high-quality and abundant raw materials, I believe that the future of the two companies will be combined to greatly enhance the company's brand influence and competitiveness, to achieve a win-win ......."

Matters related to the contract have been discussed by the team meetings of both sides many times, and this time I met with Lin Xuan, which is to finalize the signing of the contract.

"Then, we have a happy cooperation!" After the contract was signed, Lin Xuan got up before me and stretched out her hand to me again.

"It was a pleasure to work with. ”

After the signing of the contract, Lin Xuan took me to inspect the internal situation of the company.

In the elevator, Lin Xuan tactfully asked about my itinerary.

"Harlon, now, you are one of the largest shareholders of Lin's jewelry, and in a few days there will be a general meeting of shareholders of Lin's, and this general meeting of shareholders will elect the next board of directors, I wonder who will exercise your voting rights instead of you,......

The elevator stopped on the fifth floor, Lin Xuan saw that I just smiled and didn't have the meaning to answer, so she didn't ask anymore, she led me out of the elevator and walked out, and introduced as she walked: "The fifth floor is the company's design department, and it is currently one of the largest departments of the company......

As he spoke, the glass door of the design department opened, and a man in a straight suit clapped his hands at the staff who were busy inside and said, "Please stop what you are doing, the chairman and Mr. Harlon of Senrui Company are welcome to inspect the work." ”

As soon as Lin Xuan and I entered the design department, applause immediately rang out.

"Everyone has worked hard, let me introduce to you, this is Harlon of Senrui Company in the United States, everyone is welcome. ”

There was another round of applause, and I smiled and nodded.

"I heard that Harlon is very interested in the new series of products at this conference, and I would like to introduce to you, this is the director of the design department, Ru Yu. Lin Xuan pointed to a beautiful woman with an elegant temperament and introduced it to me.

"Is that you?" the beautiful woman stared at me for a long time, and finally recognized me: "When did you return home?"

It seems that she is Ru Qin's sister, my unknown tablemate back then. This is all blamed on Lu Xiaochao, occupying my beautiful and short green years.

"Do you know each other?" Lin Xuan asked in surprise.

I smiled and stretched out my hand to Ru Yu and said, "Long time no see, old classmate!"

"I didn't expect you to remember me. Ru Yu smiled generously and said, "Last time, Xiao Mi sent your wedding card to my original address in the United States, and I only received it a few days ago, is Jia Mi okay?"

Qin Jiami also sent her a wedding card? Why don't I remember that she had a relationship with Qin Jiami?

"She's in the U.S., and she's fine. I replied with a smile, a little perfunctory in my words, but none of the beauties present seemed to hear it.

"I heard that there is someone else who designed "May Snow", I don't know who it is?" I didn't attend the press conference, but I saw the media coverage of the love story between Master Lin and the emerging designer after the press conference. Of course, I also knew that Lu Xiaochao was the heroine, but I just glanced around the design department, but I didn't see Lu Xiaochao's figure.

"The person who designed "May Snow" is called Lu Xiaochao. A big-eyed beautiful woman stood at her desk and hurriedly interjected, as if she was afraid that someone would take the design of "May Snow", and I guess she must have been one of Lu Xiao's friends.

Seeing this, Ru Yu immediately stared at me meaningfully, as if she wanted to see some clues in my expression.

"Lu Xiaochao, it can't be the Lu Xiaochao I know, right?" I looked back at Ru Yu and threw the question at her.

Ru Yu was stunned for a moment, and then replied with a far-fetched smile: "Yes, it's ......."

Before he could finish speaking, another uninvited guest came to the design department, oh, to be exact, two.

Lin Yue and Lu Xiaochao.

Seeing me and Lin Xuan appear in the design department, Lin Yue and Lu Xiaochao also looked a little surprised, of course, Lu Xiaochao's expression can't be described only as surprise, the person standing in front of her is me Zhang Xingchen, she is embarrassed to only be surprised twice to deal with the past?

"Sister...... Lin Yue also took Lu Xiaochao's hand and pulled her to Lin Xuan, but was interrupted by Lin Xuan as soon as she spoke.

"What do you look like during work hours?" Lin Xuan seemed to dote on her younger brother very much, obviously reprimanding, but there was still love in her eyes.

Lin Yue glanced at me, he obviously knew me, but he didn't take it seriously, he took Lu Xiaochao's hand and shook it in front of Lin Xuan and said: "I announced it at the press conference, I proposed to Lu Xiaochao, and she also agreed, we will get married, doesn't this just follow your wishes?"

Lin Xuan glanced at me with a slightly embarrassed face, and then said with a helpless smile: "This is Lin Yue, the general manager of the Lin family, and he is also the younger brother, so you can see it." Then he introduced to Lin Yue: "This is the representative of Senrui Company in the United States, Harlon Zhang." ”

Lin Yue smiled flirtatiously, and then nodded at me: "Is the contract signed? Then, you are going back to the United States soon, right?"

I smiled comfortably and glanced at Lu Xiaochao, who was silent with her head bowed on the side, her hand was held by Lin Yue, but she didn't struggle or disgusted at all, just let him grab her hand and show off in front of everyone.

I ignored Lin Yue's hostility, and slowly walked to Lu Xiaochao and stood still: "Are you Lu Xiaochao? Are you Zhang Xingchen's first love, Lu Xiaochao?"

Lu Xiaochao raised his face to meet his eyes, and opened his mouth before Lin Yue on the side had a seizure: "The inspiration of 'May Snow' has nothing to do with Zhang Xingchen you know, if Mr. Harlon is interested, I can write a complete report and give it to you." ”

The atmosphere became stagnant, I looked back at Lin Xuan and said with a smile: "Chairman Lin, no one will exercise voting rights for me, I will personally attend the shareholders' meeting, and I intend to join your company's board of directors and become a member of the board of directors."

Lin Xuan looked a little dumbfounded, she didn't seem to expect my sudden decision.

I turned to Lin Yue, "I feel very ...... the general manager elected by the board of directors Incomprehensible, I thought that since it was in the company, it should be clear between public and private, and know how to avoid suspicion. ”

"There is no distinction between public and private, I don't care to use official affairs to cover up my relationship with Lu Xiaochao, but I really hope that Mr. Zhang, you are determined to hide it, please keep it hidden." Lin Yue said with a sneer.

I smiled lazily: "It might disappoint you." ”

The people around me were confused about the unprovoked hostility between me and Lin Yue, and it was estimated that only Lu Xiaochao and Ru Yu knew what was involved, so I passed between Lin Yue and Lu Xiaochao, bumped into their holding hands, and walked out of the design department, and Lin Xuan and several executives also followed.

I thought I hadn't changed, and even though the memories were still in place, I wasn't the same person after all.

The team that participated in this signing decided to return to the United States on the second day of the signing, and I stayed, and there was another person who was also left by me, Luo Mingjie, who used to be a member of the legal team of Senrui, and a university alumnus of Qin Jiami, who has been following me since I entered Senrui.

Before leaving Lin's, I went to Xiao Sa's marketing department, when I went, he was stealing his head on the computer, he saw me appear, and he was so frightened that the sky fell with an expression: "How did you find the company? Aren't you afraid of running into Lu Xiaochao?"

I glanced at this guy's messy desk, sighed twice, and sat down on a chair next to him: "Brother, Lu Xiaochao has published his design, why are you still in the chat room?"

"Don't mention it, since the last time we her off in the coffee house, she has been in a cold war with me for three days now, and I don't look for some warmth on the Internet, and I'm already freezing. His exaggerated expression of misery was no different from before.

Lu Xiaochao is like this, the cold war started, and the cold was comparable to the North Pole.

"Didn't you chase after her confidently, why didn't you coax her well?" Xiao Sa glanced at me as he spoke.

Pity our two difficult brothers, who come and go in Lu Xiaochao's girl's world.

"I broke with her. I pursed my mouth and said, my eyes were attracted by a photo frame on Xiao Sa's desk that was crooked in the pile of materials, I reached out and picked up the photo frame, Xiao Sa wanted to stop it, but I blocked it with one hand.

"What are you doing with her picture on the table?" I asked Xiao Sa.

Xiao Sa snatched the photo frame from my hand: "I have been with her for much longer than you, seven years, you can't expect me to feel nothing." ”

I was stunned, although I had thought about this possibility, but when this qiē was really in front of me, I felt heartache.

"Does she know?" I asked.

"There's no need, it's impossible for me to be with her anyway, there are feelings, there are feelings, I'm not as strong as you, I can't bear the weight of loving her. "Xiao Sa's expression is a strict expression I have never seen before.

"Why?" because she is physically disabled? But she is self-reliant, independent, intelligent and talented, and many women are less than one-ten-thousandth of her, or is it because she is so good that Xiao Sa is so obscene that she doesn't even have the courage to like it?

"She committed suicide twice, and there was a period of time in college, she had aphasia, you have seen what her nightmares look like, over the years, her condition has been good and bad, in the past two years, she has traveled to many places to relax, it seems that she has stabilized, Lu Xiaochao you see now, not to mention Nirvana rebirth, at least it can be regarded as reborn, such a girl, there is no complete certainty, any coveting by me is a harm. ”

Suicide, aphasia, what really happened?

I was about to ask Xiao Sa what was going on, but he suddenly stood up, looked straight behind me and shouted respectfully: "Manager Wan!"

"Who are you chatting with during working hours!" said Manager Wan of the marketing department.

"It's me. I stood up, "Xiao Sa is my friend, I'm here to ask him something." "Just now in front of Lin Yue, what did he say about the distinction between public and private, this would really be shooting himself in the foot.

"It turned out to be you, don't bother, Xiao Sa, sort out the report and put it on my desk before getting off work. Manager Wan said with a smile on his face, and then left.

Xiao Sa looked at me suspiciously: "What's your situation, why is this Tianshan Old Demon Manager also respectful to you?"

"I'll tell you later. "I sat back in my chair and removed the picture from the frame.

Xiao Sa roared and screamed on the side to stop: "Why are you so impersonal, I have taken care of her for you for seven years, and you have to confiscate a photo, it's too unreasonable!"

I slapped his hand away: "Don't force me to use force!"

He retracted his hand and glared at me without saying a word, pretending to be aggrieved.

"Just look at me, you just know, you haven't figured out what happened to that stinky girl who likes Lu Xiaochao? After seven years, I haven't been taken back by her for thousands of miles. I raised my eyebrows, "You have a good life, but why bother?"

Xiao Sa looked disgusted when he heard this: "Does Lu Xiaochao know that you said that about her?"

I laughed twice, "What do you think?"

"You said you broke with her just now, why are you snatching my photo now?" Xiao Sa came back to his senses and reached out to intercept the photo again.

I snatched it back: "It's broken, it's my instinct to get the photo back." ”

I grabbed the photo and beckoned to Luo Mingjie, who was standing stupidly at the door, and slipped away.

For the past seven years of Lu Xiaochao, I thought I knew a rough idea, but when I took a trip to Xiao Sa today, I found that the truth was not what I understood.
