Chapter 485: On the cusp
After I threw the question to Master Ge, this man who looked honest but had experienced the world immediately understood my thoughts, and he said to me, "You are still young, why do you have the idea of escaping? …… In the eyes of us outsiders, you don't lack anything, and it is a great blessing to be able to marry this girl Jin Qiu as a daughter-in-law, so I can't understand why you would say such a thing. ”
I avoided Master Ge's eyes, and then looked out the window at the very bright world illuminated by the sun, but some thoughts were more hidden in my body, and I said to Master Ge after a while: "Actually, I am living like this now, which is the real escape, and some people and things that should be faced by me have been bypassed by me." ”
My words stopped at the point, so Master Ge didn't understand too much, and finally just said to me: "If you are tired, you can rest for a while, don't put too much pressure on yourself, compared to a young man who is about the same age, you have done a good job!" ”
I smiled wryly and replied, "Master Ge, it's really not how good I do, even if you talk about it behind your back, you may talk about my mother who has a big man...... But you don't know that before my mom left me alone, I worked as a café and a piano shop, and it all ended up being a failure. So what you see now is just what I did after I gained power, in fact, it is not very hard, and there is no technical content, and many things are done between dinners! ”
Master Ge also smiled at me and said, "But we still think you've done a good job." First, you are not unkind to the rich, and second, you have created a family business and suffered more, if you want to demand anything from you, it is someone else's fault...... Jiang Qiao, you must not drill the tip of the horns, you listen to my Lao Ge's advice, as long as you are benevolent and righteous, you can enjoy it even if it is ten thousand taels of gold. ”
Lao Ge patted me on the shoulder as he spoke......
I didn't speak, but my heart was a little more comfortable, this year, I just passively borrowed some of Yang Jin's prestige, and didn't reach out to ask her for money, compared to those rich second generations who took their father's money to squander it and couldn't do a career, I should be at ease. Because, from the moment Yang Jin appeared in my life, I have been labeled, rather than being an indisputable rich second generation, it is better to make good use of the resources around me and fight for my life...... I really shouldn't take myself so lightly, even if it's a dinner party, it's also a communicative science, so I'm definitely not useless.
……
After another moment, Xiao Ai also came to the hospital with his luggage. Because it was in the middle of spring and summer, it was very hot in the afternoon, and she wore a white half-cut skirt with a Mickey-colored short-sleeved upper body, which was very similar to what I dressed when I first met her, and I couldn't help but take a few more looks. She is still in the best years of her youth, and the years have not left a trace on her at all, but there is a trace of powerless sadness in her eyes, but it has become a nervousness in my heart...... If I could, I would trade everything I have for what I have now, turn myself into an indomitable reptile, and go to her heart to see what is going on.
She came to me and Master Ge, and after looking at her, Master Ge looked at me with a strange gaze, as if she understood my inner struggle. Compared with Xiao Ai and Jin Qiu, it is obvious that Xiao Ai is more youthful and beautiful, and I am suspected of seeing something different, so I said what I just said to him.
However, he didn't know that it was the woman named Xiao Ai in front of me who really spent a good time with me.
Xiao Ai handed me my luggage and asked me, "Are your employees okay?" ”
"Still rescuing ......"
Xiao Ai nodded, and didn't ask me when I had to go, she just left my side and Master Ge's side, and then found a corner by herself and stood quietly. I know that she doesn't want Master Ge to misunderstand the relationship between us, she is still very conservative in dealing with our relationship, but she seems to have a trace of attachment to me, so she has the same contradiction now.
At this time, Master Ge really asked me in a low voice: "Mr. Jiang, this girl can go to the hospital to find you, your relationship must be not ordinary, right?" ”
To this day, I have to at least give Xiao Ai the title of an ex-girlfriend to prove that I once loved, so I said to Master Ge very truthfully: "She is my ex-girlfriend, and we have been separated for two years." ”
Master Ge's emotions became a little excited, and he replied: "Mr. Jiang, you are a little inappropriate, you are about to get engaged to Jin Qiu." At this time, it's better not to cause trouble! ”
I subconsciously looked at Xiao Ai, but I didn't know how to reply to Master Ge, so that all this seemed normal and understandable.
I was a little embarrassed, and at this moment, the door of the emergency room was finally opened, and Master Ge's attention was immediately diverted, and he walked up to the doctor in a few steps and asked him about the old horse. I, too, followed in the footsteps of Master Ge.
The doctor gave us a hopeful reply, Lao Ma's fate was saved, but the situation in the future is not very optimistic, he will definitely not be able to live like a normal person, and he will lose the ability to work......
Master Ge was first overjoyed, and then sighed again, he looked at the pony next to him and said, "I'm sorry for the pony." ”
Instead of caring about the old horse first, the pony was a little helpless, and then looked at the doctor with longing, hoping that the doctor would change his mind and give him an old horse who could help him share the pressure of life. However, the doctor left in a commonplace manner.
And I don't dare to give him any guarantees, because I am not a savior, and the future road will depend on him to walk down-to-earth, but it will definitely be much harder than when the old horse is still able to work.
Just as I was about to leave with Xiao Ai, the pony cried, and cried so much. He said that he promised his girlfriend in Nanjing to buy a house in Nanjing, but now the money from the house will be used to pay for Lao Ma's medical expenses...... I don't know how it would be to hear the pony cry when the old horse in the ward may have woken up at this moment, but I know that sometimes the world is so cruel!
……
Before leaving Tianjin, I gave Wang Er 20,000 yuan in cash and asked him to transfer it to Lao Ma, which is my personal intention, and as for his medical expenses, the company will also help him reimburse 50% of them.
I'll admit that I can certainly afford to pay for the full medical bills, but that's only how far I can go. Because once this precedent is opened, if something similar happens in the future, I can't favor one over the other, and I have to bear all the responsibilities in the name of the company. And this is also a great risk for the company, because the hospital is a bottomless pit, and today it is just spent on Lao Ma alone, which is already more than 100,000.
Yes, I can be kind, but I also have the consciousness of being a businessman. I want all employees to feel at home in the company, but I can't really shelter them like a home, because the company wants to make money, and that's the simplest and crudest reason.
……
In the evening, Xiao Ai and I boarded a flight from Tianjin to Nanjing. I felt like Xiao Ai and I were both smelling of potions, because we had almost all survived in the hospital since last night. And in this short day, we sent away the little fish, and saw with our own eyes that the old horse was cut off by illness.
To be honest, I'm really feeling like things have been going a little hard lately because before that, I had a Maserati that I just bought that was hit and scrapped. So, I was even more pessimistic about whether the plane I was sitting on would also be in a plane crash due to a mechanical failure or something...... After all, it has been so long since I heard the news of a plane crash, and a plane crash is an inevitable objective existence, so it's not this flight!
At this time, the fuselage that encountered the air flow suddenly trembled, so frightened that my palms began to break out in a cold sweat, and the psychological hints I gave myself were too strong, but when I saw Xiao Ai sleeping peacefully next to me, there was suddenly no fear in my heart...... I even hope that if I die together like this, there will be nothing left, and I feel that I am happy, as long as I fall to the ground, I hold her hand to death, I must be happy!
Thinking of this, I gasped heavily, and then gently put my hand on Xiao Ai's hand, and when she noticed it, she suddenly withdrew it, pretending to be more heavy than she was sleeping...... After a jolt, the plane finally returned to its steady. And I realized that my impulse towards her was based on life and death, and only by going beyond the boundaries of life and death could I burst out with extraordinary courage in her.
By the time we returned to Nanjing, night had already covered the city. Xiao Ai and I said goodbye on Tulip Road, she stayed in the hotel, and I went back to my new house. Tomorrow, we will go to Xiaofang's school together to see this poor child.
……
Back on the floor where I lived, I knocked on Chen Yi's door again, but I didn't get a response. Presumably, she is out socializing again and has not come back. So, I sent her a message telling her that I had gone back to Nanjing and asked her to come to me when she got home.
This is something we have made an appointment with yesterday, because she has already learned the truth about Yuan Zhen's departure from Apocalypse Media from Qiu Zi'an.
While waiting, I received another call from Yang Qu, who said that Jin Qiu came back early today and asked me to accompany them to dinner. And they have already bought me a ticket to Shenzhen tomorrow at noon......
An expected storm came, and I, tired of choice, was once again forced to stand on the cusp of having to make a choice.
