Chapter 237: Long Time No See
Yanran injured her right arm, and she didn't recover so quickly in the short term, Linda had already treated Yanran as a work-related injury, and gave her a week of paid leave, so that she could go back and rest well, and she didn't have to go to work in such a hurry.
As soon as Yanran left the door of the Lin family's headquarters, she met Jessie at the intersection.
A café with extremely elaborate decoration, not far from the Lin headquarters, the two of them sat down by the glass window, and the fragrant coffee was placed in front of the table, wafting a faint fragrance.
As for Jessie, Yan Ran only met him in a hurry yesterday, he is the chief secretary of Nangong Xuanmu, and it is said that he has a very high status in the Nangong Group, which is equivalent to Linda of the Lin family.
Obviously, the two are strangers who have nothing to do with each other, and there seems to be nothing to talk about.
Unexpectedly, what Jessie said to her for the first time was: "Yanran, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
The corners of Jessie's mouth were raised, and her eyes were soft.
Haven't seen you in a long time? This sentence is the words of the old man, but for Jessie...... She wasn't impressed, she didn't remember knowing the man.
"You really don't remember me?" As if seeing Yanran's doubts, Jessie's smile deepened, a little embarrassed.
Yan Ran looked at her fixedly for a long time, as if she was a little familiar, but she felt very strange.
Jessie lowered her head and took out a photo from her designer bag, put it on the table, and pushed it to Yanran with her fingers.
Yanran looked at the photo on the table and was stunned, her eyes widened, and she stared at Jesse for a while.
"Wang Xiaojuan?" She was surprised and said, there was no way to put the intellectual workplace elite in front of her with fair and delicate skin and delicate facial features and freckles on her face. With thick eyes, Wang Xiaojuan, who is short and thin, is connected.
But even if the person's appearance changes greatly, if a familiar person observes carefully, he can still find the clue.
When she was in high school, she lived under the same roof with Wang Xiaojuan for nearly a semester, and although she often had conflicts, she also accumulated a lot of emotions.
The curvature of the corners of Jessie's mouth deepened, although she was like Wang Xiaojuan, the taste in her smile was very similar.
"Is it really you?" Yanran held Jessie's hand, obviously confirmed, but still in a trance.
"It's changed a lot, isn't it? Sometimes even when I look in the mirror by myself. will wonder if the person in the mirror is really me. Jessie said lightly. But it is difficult to hide the slightest melancholy.
"How have you been doing all these years?" Jessie held Yanran's hand instead, and both of them had ice hands.
"Good! Very good! Yanran replied, against his will. But it's the best answer.
"What about you?" Yanran asked rhetorically.
"It's also good. Very good! ”
Same answer. They both know in their hearts that they are not lucky girls, they have been through too much over the years. There is more to lose than to gain, and a kind of sympathy spreads.
"Fate is really wonderful, who would have thought that I would meet you here." Jessie Road.
Oh, yes! Who would have thought that many years later, the little girl who had a crush on Xuanmu would become his chief secretary.
And the person who everyone thought was not in this world would come back from the dead and stand in front of them alive.
When the old friends met, the excitement and surprise calmed down, and they were relatively speechless, and Ren Silence wandered between the hearts of the two of them, and at the same time picked up the coffee cup and sipped it lightly.
If it was just a simple meeting, the two of them would be very happy!
But obviously, their lives have changed greatly over the years, they have experienced too many joys and sorrows, and their mood can never return to the past.
What's more, there is still a person between them...... Nangong Xuanmu.
Although it is very similar to eight years ago, the situation of the two has changed.
Eight years ago, Wang Xiaojuan liked Xuanmu, and Yanran self-righteously arranged for the two to meet, so that Wang Xiaojuan could say goodbye to her first love before leaving Nanhua.
Eight years later, Wang Xiaojuan became Jessie, became the chief secretary by his side, and became the closest person around him from life to career.
Yanran's death, she was indeed sad for a while, after all, it was her only friend when she was a student.
But since she met Nangong Xuanmu, she regarded this qiē as the will of God.
Yanran is the imagination of all good things in her heart, God took pity on her and gave her a chance to replace Yanran, so she almost became Yanran's stand-in over the years.
And this in itself was a mistake, fantasy and reality collided, and she was completely injured.
When I met him in the United States, he seemed to have stepped out of the shadows, a qiē normal, but he had been plagued by mental illness for a long time.
But he concealed it very well, and even as a personal secretary, she never noticed anything unusual about him.
It wasn't until last winter that the first snow fell......
She worked late into the night and stumbled upon him on the drive home.
He walked alone through the streets of the United States, wearing a very thin shirt, a black sweater, black suit pants, black socks, and no shoes.
She thought she had seen it wrong, and it wasn't until she parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car and followed the figure for a while that she dared to confirm that this person was indeed Nangong Xuanmu.
"President!" She called him behind him, but he wouldn't look back.
She trotted over to him in her high heels and looked up to call him again, but his empty eyes seemed to be completely immersed in a man's world, like an out-of-body body, and he couldn't hear any sound at all.
She didn't know how long he had been walking in the snow, covered in snow, his eyebrows and eyes covered in frost, and his hands red from the cold.
She grabbed his cold hand and blocked his way: "Nangong Xuanmu!" "Trying to wake him up.
He stopped, and looked at her in a daze for a moment.
"Shhhh Don't be silent! He pressed a finger between his lips and motioned for her to stop talking.
"Yanran is crying! Every year when it snows, she cries a lot, you listen! Do you hear that? Actually, she was a coward, she deliberately hid and cried, not letting me know, but it didn't matter, I would find her right away...... Soon! His eyes were dark and unfocused, his face was pale, his lips were chapped, and his body was slightly shaky.
Jessie has been by his side all these years, and she has always thought that he is doing well.
After all, it's been so many years, isn't it enough for him to forget someone, enough for him to get out of the haze, enough for him to start over and create his own world.
You see him, he can work normally, live normally, the ups and downs of the business world, he is calmer, wiser, and more resolute than anyone else, and actively expands the career territory of Nangong Group, and is known as a business wizard.
He shouldn't be like this, lost his soul and depressed.
Just because of a memory related to her, the girl who remembered him would cry on a snowy night, so he was at a loss to look for her figure in the cold wind, the girl who had disappeared from this world.
"Gu Yanran is dead! Don't you understand, Gu Yanran is dead! She's dead! Looking at Nangong Xuanmu like this, Jessie wept in pain and screamed loudly.
