Chapter 138: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
Guan Zhong drove Li Qing's mother and son home, passed by the cold drink shop they had eaten before, turned in, and bought Jiang Miao a matcha flavor she liked.
For a while, Guan Zhong was tied to things at work, leaving early and returning late every day, and he almost never met Jiang Miao head-on, let alone had any emotional communication.
He also knew that he owed her the matter of using Jiang Miao as cannon fodder, but according to the situation at the time, even if time passed all over again, he would still not hesitate to make the previous decision.
Guan Zhong has always known that he is extremely ambitious, although he does love Jiang Miao, but in the face of huge interests, Jiang Miao's psychological damage, he thinks that it can be healed through time, and if you don't seize it, the lost thing can't be recovered no matter how hard you try.
Guan Zhong told himself in his heart that his decision was correct in this matter, and there was no need to regret it.
I wanted to think about it, but when he really saw Jiang Miao at home, he was getting haggard day by day, and he was still distressed.
Carrying ice cream open the door and entering the house, all the lights went out except for the dim light in the hallway.
Guan Zhong was stunned for a moment, took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, it was only past eight o'clock, Jiang Miao went to bed so early?
Entering the house lightly, Guan Zhong turned on the bedside lamp, and saw Jiang Miao curled up, lying on the bed with her hands on her stomach, her face flushed with a faint flush because she was asleep.
Guan Zhong sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Jiang Miao carefully, only then did he realize that she should have not rested well for a while, with heavy dark circles under her eyes, white and chapped lips, and she looked a little haggard.
Guan Zhong stretched out his hand and gently stroked Jiang Miao's smooth and delicate face, and his fingertips swiped lightly, and Jiang Miao, who thought he was already asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.
Guan Zhong asked apologetically: "Woke you up?" ”
Jiang Miao looked at him blankly, his eyes were full of red bloodshots, and he paused before he reacted and shook his head gently: "It's okay, I should wake up too, what time is it?" ”
Guan Zhong said softly: "It's more than eight o'clock, I heard Muzi say that you vomited at night?" Is it a cold? ”
Jiang Miao didn't want to explain to him, so she nodded perfunctorily.
Guan Zhong's tone was concerned: "Have you taken medicine?" ”
Jiang Miao hurriedly responded: "Well, it's already much better." ”
Guan Zhong raised the corners of his mouth: "I don't have any appetite for a cold, I brought you an ice cream, get up and eat two bites, and you can be refreshed." ”
Jiang Miao dug into the ice cream, and said to Guan Zhong: "I went to pick up Muzi today, Li Qing didn't have time, and you didn't answer the phone, so the child found me." ”
Guan Zhong nodded: "Well, I met them when I came back, and when I took Muzi to eat cold drinks, I heard him say it." ”
Jiang Miao's hand froze: "Am I a little troublesome?" ”
Jiang Miao looked at Guan Zhong with a pair of big eyes watery, her lips that had just eaten ice cream became more and more ruddy, Guan Zhong looked at her one by one, her head was a little blank, she didn't react for a while, and asked stupidly: "Ah?" ”
Jiang Miao originally felt that this matter might not be done very steadily, for fear that Li Qing and Guan Zhong would think too much, but now looking at Guan Zhong's reaction, he couldn't help but affirm his thoughts more and more, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "At that time, Muzi called, the child was going to cry, I didn't think much about it, did Li Qing say something?" You have to explain it to me when you go back, I'm kind, don't get me wrong. ”
Guan Zhong then understood what she was talking about, and pushed the ice cream in front of her funny: "What do you think!" There is no thing, she can only be grateful to you, where did the misunderstanding come from, I know that you are in love with the house and Wu, because I am good to Muzi, I understand. ”
Jiang Miao wanted to say, you understand a fart, if you really understand, you can let Li Muzi call you father, and you can let Li Qing like you.
Sitting in the office, Guan Zhong stayed up until more than nine o'clock in the evening to complete the day's work tasks, stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, Guan Zhong turned his head to look at the dark sky outside the window, and scolded secretly, paralysis, Zhang Heng is a madman.
From his report by the dealer, to a series of thorough investigations by the company, although Guan Zhong has already prepared a backhand, he is still a little weak to deal with, some things can be explained to the people below to do, some things, but he is the only one to deal with quietly, in the past two years of social drift, Guan Zhong has seen a lot of people's warmth and coldness, and understands that some things can only rot in the stomach, even the closest people can not say, only in this way can they really protect themselves.
At the beginning, he thought that this series of troubles was set up by the general manager in order to prevent him from climbing up again, but things were thrown out one after another, and even his work in the past two years was dug out, so it can be seen that in order to bring down and stink him, the people who want to harm him have really done a lot of hard work, but if the general manager is really so insidious and cunning, I am afraid that he will not be able to do today's status, after all, no matter how sinister the hearts of the people are, if it is really chilling, there are no one or two henchmen, and if you want to gain a foothold in a company, it is something that you can't even think about. What's more, a person in a position like the general manager, you can make your subordinates respect you and fear you, but they can't guard against you.
Guan Zhong slowly sniffed out some clues behind the matter, and then followed the traces little by little, and then began to suspect Zhang Heng.
Thinking of Zhang Heng, Guan Zhong couldn't help but have a headache.
Zhang Heng is very difficult to mess with, not to mention the huge background behind him.
Guan Zhong understood that fighting with him was tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, but he could only rush up.
If there is a mortal enmity between the two men, there can only be two reasons, the national hatred and family hatred, he and Zhang Heng are impossible to be hostile in terms of work, except for Jiang Miao, Guan Zhong can't think of anything else that can force Zhang Heng to be anxious, and think of him to death.
Guan Zhong could have been able to serve Zhang Heng and find a middleman to help him make peace, and it is estimated that the matter will be resolved. But the matter involved Jiang Miao, and Guan Zhong couldn't find a decent reason to convince himself.
For a successful person like Zhang Heng, who has a big family and a big mind and a smart mind, Guan Zhong understands that he is hard-hitting, and he must be the one who will be deflated in the end.
Guan Zhong is not helpless to deal with this kind of person, but he is a little clueless, after all, his understanding of Zhang Heng is only limited to the contact at work on weekdays, and later because of Jiang Miao, he almost reflexively rejected Zhang Heng, and he just hated that he couldn't completely demarcate him out of the scope of his life.
After briefly cleaning up the things on the desk, Guan Zhong took his things and left.
Jiang Miao stayed at home for another day, and at night, her stomach was really hungry, so she simply changed her clothes, didn't even wash her face, and went out of the house directly.
As soon as she took a taxi to the Yipin Xiang Porridge Shop, she was stopped, she looked back, okay, what a coincidence, it was Xu Jingjing.
