But this thought only flashed in Zhou Nan's mind. Regardless of whether Sun Xiaolan is a little ambitious, or whether she is a worldly little woman's cleverness, but from beginning to end, no matter whether Zhou Nan is the current Manager Zhou or the previous "Xiao Zhou", Sun Xiaolan is still good to him, at least maintaining an obvious kindness.

As long as she is not too outrageous, Zhou Nan is still willing to give her a certain amount of care within the scope of her authority.

Zhou Nan closed the door tightly and hesitated, but he didn't know how to report this matter to Meng Chunting.

Now is not the past era of the Cultural Revolution and the era of imprisoning people's surnames, they have all been reformed and opened up, and the social atmosphere has long gone to the other extreme. Because of this kind of thing, Kang Zhan Guo and Zhang Hongxia can't be put on a "hooligan" or "broken shoe" hat to parade in the streets, or even expel them for this.

However, as a middle-level cadre, he was caught and annihilated during working hours, and his job would not be lost, and his identity as a middle-level cadre would definitely not be kept.

Shaking his head, Zhou Nan smiled bitterly, although he was very disgusted with these two people, and he also had the heart to find an opportunity to get these two people out of his company, but he didn't think about it, before he did it, they made a big fool of themselves, and I am afraid that in a few years, they will not be able to raise their heads.

Zhou Nan hesitated for a long time, but finally did not call Meng Chunting to report. He knew in his heart that even if he didn't report it, it would soon spread throughout the company and to Meng Chunting and other company leaders.

Zhou Nan looked at his watch and saw that it was almost noon, so he dialed Zhang Ying's eldest brother.

"Yingzi, have you been to Kunyang City?"

"We just got off the train and found a hotel to stay in. I just contacted a deputy manager of the supply and marketing company of BD Group, and he agreed to invite a deputy general manager in charge of the head office to have dinner with us in the evening. By the way, Zhou Nan, I'm going to give some gifts, you won't object, right? Zhang Ying's voice was slightly tired, and he had been riding the train for seventeen or eighteen hours, although it was a sleeper, but it was tired enough.

"You can do it yourself, Yingzi. I only advise you two sentences, when you go out, don't be too stingy with yourself, you must spend the money you should spend, no matter whether the cooperation is successful or not, you must take care of yourself, eat and sleep well, and pay attention to safety. I await your triumphant return at home! Zhou Nan smiled and said casually.

"Zhou Nan, I have an idea temporarily, and I want to discuss it with you." Zhang Ying said softly, pausing suddenly, as if waiting for Cui Jing to enter the bathroom, and then Zhang Ying hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "I heard a little meaning from the other party's words." Because our cooperation with Qing'an Cigarette Factory has been successful...... However, although they are very interested in our proposed cooperation model, we are still a small company at the moment. If we want a large state-owned enterprise like Jiajia to cooperate with us, I think we have to do some blood......"

Zhou Nan pondered for a moment, "You mean to give them some shares to the leader?" ”

"Yes. Zhou Nan, the two of us just need to know about this matter, and it shouldn't be a big problem to keep it a secret. I'll talk to each other individually. If they agree, there won't be much of a problem with cooperation......" Zhang Ying said softly.

Zhou Nan didn't reply, but his memory was reversed, back to the time in his previous life, when he went to Southwest Province to talk about cooperation with the Pagoda Group. If the cooperation with Qing'an City is relatively smooth, then his cooperation with BD Group is very difficult and full of twists and turns.

……

……

"Zhou Nan! What's wrong with you, are you still listening? Hearing that Zhou Nan had not moved for a long time, Zhang Ying urged anxiously on the other end of the phone.

Zhou Nan shook his head, "Yingzi, you will definitely succeed in doing this." I am convinced of that. However, I was reluctant to do so. When we do business, we must try to follow the right path and try to keep a bottom line. I mean, even if we spend a little more money to get a little bit up and down, even if it's a little bit of a kickback or something in the future, don't do this kind of thing that leaves hidden dangers. ”

"You go and probe their mouths again, and don't do such things unless you have to." Zhou Nan is categorical.

"Okay, this is just one of my initial thoughts, maybe people don't have this kind of mind. Hehe, by the way, I estimate that this time the pagoda group is a hard bone, it must be more difficult than the Qing'an Tobacco Factory, and it is not good that they want to propose a controlling stake. Zhang Ying sighed, "This kind of possible surname is very big." ”

"It doesn't matter if they hold the holdings, as long as we can break into this market, we will talk about the future." Zhou Nan smiled, "Of course, you still have to try your best to fight for our ......interests."

"Well, I see. No matter how harsh their conditions were, we all ate this piece of fat first. With the successful cooperation with these two tobacco factories, we have enough capital and chips in the next step. Zhang Ying grinned, "If the negotiation is completed, you can give me and Cui Jing a vacation, we want to go to the border to have a look, it's pretty good here." ”

"That's fine. Whether it works or not, you can all have a good time there for two days. Zhou Nan smiled and deducted the phone, "Yingzi, I still have some things, you should pay attention to safety outside." ”

"Well, don't worry." Zhang Ying heard the concern in Zhou Nan's words, and her voice became very gentle.

……

……

After learning about the scandal between Zhang Hongxia and Kang Zhanguo, Meng Chunting almost vomited blood in anger. Especially Kang Zhanguo, this is a middle-level cadre she just promoted, but this kind of thing happened within two days of taking office, which is simply a smear on Meng Chunting's face.

She called Zhou Nan over with a phone call, and then asked Xu Jianguo, deputy secretary of the Party committee and secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, to come over, and slapped the table in front of the two. Xu Jianguo was asked to arrange for the Discipline Inspection Commission and the political work department to immediately study and come up with a plan to deal with it.

Actually, there is nothing to study. Not long after, Xu Jianguo reported to Meng Chunting the results of the "study": Kang Zhanguo and Zhang Hongxia were dismissed from their middle-level positions, transferred from Xinghai Company, and went to the workshop of the artificial gas plant under the head office. Of course, if the two can't accept it, they can resign and go home.

After dealing with this matter, Meng Chunting felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, so she endured the pain and took some medicine and went home from work early.

Chen Xi came home from school in the afternoon and felt a little strange when he saw that there was no movement in the kitchen. At this time, as long as Meng Chunting has no entertainment, she will cook dinner for her at home. And since her mother didn't let her eat outside by herself today, it means that she didn't socialize. But - how......

Chen Xi went back to the room and put down his schoolbag and went to his mother's bedroom. When I pushed the door, I saw Meng Chunting curled up on the bed, using a pillow against her lower abdomen, frowning, and letting out a shallow moan.

Although Meng Chunting is very strict with Chen Xi, and Chen Xi, who is in the rebellious period of youth, often quarrels with her, but after all, mother and daughter have relied on each other for so many years, and the relationship is not ordinarily deep.

Seeing his mother like this, Chen Xi screamed in surprise and pounced, "Mom, what's wrong with you, this is ......"

Meng Chunting held back the pain and reluctantly smiled at her daughter, "It's okay, my stomach hurts a little...... You wait a minute, Mom will cook for you later. ”

"Mom, what else are you eating, I'll accompany you to the hospital to have a look. I'm going to call your driver right now and ask him to come over quickly! Chen Xi hurriedly got up and was about to make a phone call.

"Forget it, Xixi, I'm fine, I've taken medicine, I'll be fine in a while. Don't bother Lao Huang, his mother is hospitalized, and I asked him to go back early. Meng Chunting shook her head and grabbed Chen Xi.

Meng Chunting had a problem with dysmenorrhea, but this time she still thought it was a symptom of dysmenorrhea, so she drank some motherwort powder and prepared to boil it over, and she didn't take it too seriously.

But unexpectedly, at night, the pain became more and more painful, and she couldn't even say a word in a cold sweat. Chen Xi was frightened, and subconsciously dialed Zhou Nan's eldest brother.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Zhou Nan was talking to his father about the case at home, when he suddenly received a call from Chen Xi.

"Brother Zhou Nan, come quickly, my mother ......" On the phone, Chen Xi begged Zhou Nan to hurry over to help with a crying voice, the logic was confused, and he didn't say what it was. Zhou Nan was taken aback, and didn't know what the mother and daughter were doing, so they put on their coats and ran out of the door with a phone, and took a taxi and went straight to Meng's house.

When I arrived at Meng's house, as soon as I rang the doorbell, the door opened.

Chen Xi had tears on his face, his expression was anxious, and when he saw Zhou Nan, he threw himself into his arms with tears, "My mother is in a lot of pain, you can help me and my mother go to the hospital......"

"What's wrong with Mr. Meng?" Zhou Nan said in surprise, pushed Chen Xi away, and ran to the Meng family's living room.

Under the beige light, Meng Chunting was half-lying on the sofa, one hand tightly grasping the edge of the coffee table next to her, and her charming and delicate face was pale, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, her eyes were blurred, and her body twitched slightly, obviously in unbearable pain.

Zhou Nan was startled, seeing that this posture was in a hurry with appendicitis. If the emergency surname appendicitis is not treated in time, it can even be life-threatening, Zhou Nan did not dare to slack off, immediately leaned down, and shouted, "Chen Xi, come over and help, carry Mr. Meng on my back." ”

In fact, Meng Chunting is not heavy, although she is one meter six or five tall, her figure is extremely well maintained, and her weight is about 110 pounds at most. Zhou Nan picked up Meng Chunting and went downstairs to take a taxi, Chen Xi hurriedly took all the cash at home and chased him out.

As soon as he went downstairs, Zhou Nan suddenly noticed that Meng Chunting on his back was moaning even more, and hesitated, knowing that it was because of his back that the uncomfortable posture caused the pain to worsen. After thinking about it, Zhou Nan asked Chen Xi to help Meng Chunting, and then leaned over and hugged her across his chest, striding out of the community.

Meng Chunting wrapped her hands around Zhou Nan's neck with trembling hands, and hung on his body as much as possible to lighten his weight. In fact, at this time, Zhou Nan didn't feel how heavy Meng Chunting was in his arms, and he actually ran.

"Chen Xi, call a taxi!"

……

……

went to Haidu People's Hospital to hang up the emergency department, and after some examination, Meng Chunting really had appendicitis and showed signs of perforation. The hospital did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly organized medical forces to prepare for Meng Chunting's immediate operation.

After Zhou Nan went to complete all the formalities for Meng Chunting and paid the fee of 2,000 yuan in advance, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. When he came back, Meng Chunting had just been pushed into the operating room.

The dimly lit hallway was empty and empty, the cold north wind was howling outside the window, and the temperature was getting low. Chen Xi squatted at the door of the operating room with a pale face, hugged his knees, and stared blankly at the door of the operating room.

Zhou Nan sighed, strode over, squatted down to help Chen Xi up, and said softly, "Don't worry, Chen Xi, the appendicitis removal operation is a minor operation, no problem, Mr. Meng will come out in a while." ”

"Really? Brother Zhou Nan, don't lie to me, I'm afraid of my mother's ......" Chen Xi suddenly turned around and stared at Zhou Nan with teary eyes, choked up, "I won't make her angry again......"

Chen Xi threw himself into Zhou Nan's arms, Zhou Nan hesitated, but still hugged her gently, patted her shoulder, and comforted her a few more words.

Appendicitis removal is indeed a minor surgery and does not take too long. When it was almost 12 o'clock, the door of the operating room was pushed open, and the nurse pushed Meng Chunting out and shouted, "Meng Chunting's family!" ”

Chen Xi was drowsy on Zhou Nan's body, and suddenly heard the nurse shouting, and immediately jumped up from Zhou Nan with a bang, rubbed his eyes and ran over.

……

……

"Chen Xi, you still have to go to school tomorrow, you better go back to sleep, I'll accompany Mr. Meng here." Zhou Nan looked at his watch, it was almost one o'clock in the morning, so he urged Chen Xi to go home.

Chen Xi sat at the head of Meng Chunting's bed, grabbed her hand tightly and refused to let go, shook his head and said, "I'm not going back, I'm going to accompany my mother...... I'm taking a day off tomorrow with my teacher. ”

Meng Chunting sighed, but she didn't say let Chen Xi go, but turned her head to look at Zhou Nan tiredly, her eyes flashed with complicated brilliance and said softly, "Xiao Zhou, I'm fine, thank you." It's late, you go back and rest. ”

Zhou Nan hesitated, it stands to reason that he should also go home. But Meng Chunting had just undergone surgery, and Chen Xi was a child, so he wanted to leave Meng Chunting's mother and daughter back, and he felt a little unbearable.

"Mr. Meng, it's okay, you just had surgery and you have to leave someone to accompany the bed." Zhou Nan walked over and patted Chen Xi's shoulder gently, and pointed to the other empty bed in the ward, "Chen Xi, you go and lie down here for a while, I will accompany Mr. Meng first, and you will replace me later." ”

Chen Xi nodded obediently, let go of Meng Chunting's hand and climbed onto the hospital bed next door, fell down sideways, fell asleep after a while, and snorted slightly, on her fair and pink face, her long eyelashes blinked slightly, and a long saliva flowed from the corner of her mouth.

After tossing all night, she was really tired, and she was still a child after all.

Zhou Nan smiled dumbly, Meng Chunting also looked at her daughter with a smile, and sighed faintly: "This child! She has never suffered since she was a child! ”

Zhou Nan smiled, "Chen Xi was very worried about you just now, and I cried several times. ”

Zhou Nan sat on the wooden bench next to Meng Chunting's hospital bed as he spoke, looked at the hanging bottle that Meng Chunting lost, and said, "Mr. Meng, you can rest for a while, you just had surgery and are very tired." I'll show you the hanging bottle, and I'll call the nurse when it's over. ”

"I'm sorry for you." Meng Chunting moved her body slightly, but suddenly frowned and let out a soft moan.

Zhou Nan subconsciously grabbed Meng Chunting's hand, "What's wrong, what's uncomfortable?" ”

The surgical wound was inadvertently gently touched, but the subtle pain was quickly replaced by another strange sensation that had never been more complex than before.

Outside the window, the night was like water, the cold wind was howling, and in the warm ward, a gentle young man grabbed his hand and sat at the head of his bed, while his daughter lay on another bed...... There was a certain concerned heat in his palm, and Meng Chunting's charming face slowly became rosy, and there was a moment of confusion.
