I was dumbfounded, unable to explain.

"There's nothing to say," Meng Chengyang self-righteously regarded my silence as a void of heart.

"I don't care what you like to think." I walked past him and into the courtyard gate.

"Lin Tong, don't be too complacent."

I smiled bitterly and quickened my pace into the door. The light in the living room on the first floor was still on, but there was no one, I was busy on the second floor, walked to Lin Xiaoyue's room, and when I raised my hand to knock on the door, I paused, and I didn't know what to say to her when I went in, if I said that I was nothing with Zou Zichen, but what they saw just now was nothing, so I couldn't explain it at all.

In fact, I can't tell myself, what is the relationship with Zou Zichen now, saying that we are friends and we have done things that are not friends can do, but if we say "qingren", we have not yet reached that point, let alone boyfriend and girlfriend, so I don't know what kind of relationship we have now?

I think it's a bit ambiguous at best.

Back in the bedroom, after washing up, I went to bed. Thinking about what I'm going to face tomorrow makes me feel tired. Suddenly, the sentence asked by Zou Zichen flashed in his mind: Are you really willing to be a tool for profit?

If I can get Yatai through this crisis, maybe I can take control of my own life.

Can I do it?

There is a voice in my heart bewitching: You are now the general manager, why don't you fight it.

That's right, why don't I fight, if I can take Yatai well, my father will have nothing to say. I don't think he is at ease about handing over real power to outsiders, so I am the best candidate.

I seem to see a ray of light that maybe I'm going to have a fresh start.

The next day, I got up early in the morning, cleaned myself up, and went downstairs. My father and stepmother were a little surprised to see me. Because usually I don't sleep until the sun is three strokes and I won't get up, and they never care.

"Dad, Auntie, morning!" I greeted them briskly and sat down at the table for breakfast.

"Why did you wake up so early today?" Father asked lightly.

I took the milk brought by Zhang's mother and smiled at him: "You put Yatai's future on me, and I naturally can't let you down too much." ”

The father was slightly stunned.

The stepmother smiled kindly, "Tongtong, then you have to eat more." "She gave me an omelette.

"Thank you!" I thanked him, and when I turned my head, I saw Lin Xiaoyue coming down from upstairs.

"Dad, Mom, I'll go to work." Lin Xiaoyue's face was as usual, but she looked at me as if she were nothing.

"Don't you eat breakfast?" The stepmother pressed after her.

"Don't eat it," Lin Xiaoyue had already walked out of the door.

"This girl is getting more and more rude, and she doesn't say hello to her sister." My stepmom gave me a little embarrassed.

I bowed my head and drank porridge when I didn't see it.

"How was the conversation with the bank guy yesterday?" Father asked suddenly.

"Well, it's not great, but don't worry, I'll keep talking to them." When I think of the attitude of the bank staff yesterday, my heart is cold again.

My father glanced up at me without asking, bowed his head and continued to drink his porridge.

I'm used to his wordless contempt.

Yatai has developed rapidly in recent years, and it can be ranked in the country, and most of the family medicines such as cold medicines used by Chinese people are from Yatai Pharmaceutical. Although this crisis came very suddenly and violently, Yatai is a landmark enterprise in Rongcheng, and the government still takes good care of Yatai, maybe I can ask Xu Mengting to help.

"I'm done."

I got up to get ready to go to work, but just as I was about to turn around, my father suddenly stopped me.

"Tong Tong, wait a minute, I have something to tell you." My father motioned for me to follow him to the study.

I went with him to the study.

The morning sun shone obliquely through the window and reflected on my father's face, and I noticed that his temples were gray, and the years were unforgiving. Looking at him seriously, his face was haggard, his eyes were very heavy, and he hadn't rested well during this time. In his heart, Yatai is better than his children, and he will always be more important than his family.

"Tongtong, I told you yesterday...... How do you think about cooperating with Hengyuan? "It was as if he was asking something very common, and he didn't move.

"Dad, there are many ways to save Yatai, why do you have to ......?"

"Just tell me if you'd like to?" My father interrupted me and spoke coldly.

I looked at him, my heart was cold, and I couldn't answer for a long time.

"Okay, I know your answer." He paused, "I talked to your sister last night, and she's more than willing to ...... In the future, whoever of you stays in Yatai will be the heir of the Lin family. ”

I was amazed.

"You go to work." Father said.

I turned around and walked out of the book room with difficulty. On the way to the company, I still couldn't believe it. In fact, I deeply experienced my father's coldness as early as 12 years ago. I thought he would feel a little guilty when his mother died, but he never knew what guilt was.

For the sake of the company, he even wants his sisters to fight, and there is such a ridiculous father in the world.

I've been in a daze for ten years, and maybe it's time to wake up.

When I arrived at the company, Wu Yue told me a good news, saying that the company asked the headhunting company to dig up a talent, and he will come to the company next week to take up his post, sitting in my previous position, deputy general manager, so that I don't have too much pressure.

Hmph, I can't help but be funny, I've always been a nominal boss in the company, whether it's positive or vice. I still had illusions last night, and I can only say that I was too naïve.

Also, my current nominal 'total' is still in need of Yatai at the moment. Because I was the only one who could deal with the debt collectors and the bankers. This is called, people have their own strengths, I can't do it in terms of entertainment, but I have the best way to deal with these people, and I rely on them to the end.

After Wu Yue reported to me about the content of the work, he went to work with his business.

I was stunned at my desk in the office for a while, but I still called Lin Xiaoyue. The bell rang several times before it picked up.

"Sister, is there something wrong?" The tone was a little impatient.

"We'll meet at noon, and I'd like to talk to you."

"I'm sorry, I don't have time at noon." To be polite and rusty.

"Then in the evening, you come to me after work." My tone hardened.

There was silence for a while, "Okay, I'll be there at half-past six." ”

"Okay." Hung up the phone, I was in a daze. The mobile phone suddenly vibrate, it was a text message, sent by Zou Zichen: I got on the plane, have you figured out how to seduce me?

Well, this guy is really Sven scum.

I went back: If I seduce you, will you be able to take the bait?

Soon he came back again: It depends on how you hook it.

Me: Then I'm going to disappoint you, this girl has never studied, so she won't.

Zou Zichen didn't come back, presumably the plane took off.

I sulked at my phone and took a while to gather my thoughts and get to work.

Recently, the company has been in bad shape, and the stock has fallen even lower than the issue price. More than a dozen drugs produced by the company were found by the Health Bureau to have three formulas exceeding the standard, which did not comply with the regulations of the State Food and Drug Administration, and were subject to heavy fines. There are also these three drugs that must be recalled immediately, which means that the company will have a lot of extra inventory, and the payment must be refunded in full...... And so on a bunch of aftermath work.

The situation has reached the point where it can't be worse, no wonder the Meng family quit so happily.

There weren't many things I needed to do, but just answering the phone was enough for me.

When Lin Xiaoyue came to me, I was still dealing with the bank's collection call. When she saw me talking on the phone, she stepped aside and sat down on her own.

Soon I took the line, pressed the inner line, and asked the secretary to bring in two cups of coffee, and then walked to the sofa opposite her and sat down.

"Sister, what do you want to talk about when you call me over?"

She asked very happily, and I didn't want to go around the bush with her.

"Dad told me in the morning, you want to ......"

"I mentioned it to my dad." She interrupted me.

I was stunned.

She said: "Isn't it very difficult for Yatai now, if Yatai can cooperate with Hengyuan, it will naturally be able to get out of the predicament, this is not the best of both worlds...... Sister is so difficult to disagree? There was a mockery in her eyes that I couldn't see.

"So, it's a note you mentioned to Dad." My face couldn't help but turn cold, a little hard to believe.

"Yes, I mentioned it, if I can let Yatai survive the crisis safely, then it is not too much to inherit Yatai." She sneered, "So you and I have our own abilities." ”

"You like Zou Zichen so much?" I asked.

"Yes, from the first time I saw him, I was hopelessly in love with him." She didn't shy away from looking directly at me, raising her chin slightly, "I went to work in Hengyuan, the purpose was to get close to him, yesterday he transferred me to the secretary's office as his assistant, I don't know if he told you?"

Lin Xiaoyue in front of me made me a little strange, her words were all provocative, and she couldn't find the shadow of the sister who was always screaming behind me, but another person who was full of hostility towards me.

"Xiaoyue, your idea is too naïve." I think she's ridiculous.

"I'm very naïve, thinking that as long as you are good to you, you will one day not hate me and will like me. For so many years, I have always been careful in front of you, and I dare not upset you in the slightest. But you, on the surface, are kind to me, but in fact, you have never accepted me in your heart. You know that I like Zou Zichen, but you still lie to me. She glared at me resentfully and growled.

"What did I lie to you?" I'm a little speechless.

"The night before yesterday, you were obviously with Mr. Zou, but you lied to me that I was with Su Qing. Why are you so weak-hearted? ”

I was so choked by her that I did lie to her.

Seeing that I was ashamed, she sneered: "It seems that my brother-in-law guessed correctly, you have already had a leg with him, no wonder your brother-in-law will hit you, you asked for it." ”

I just felt tightness in my chest.

"Sister, you really disappointed me." Saying that, she picked up her bag and walked out, and when she walked to the door, she suddenly stopped, turned around, and said with a smile: "In the future, you and I don't have to wear masks to perfunctory each other, we are very tired." ”

"Xiaoyue, believe it or not, Zou Zichen and I are innocent. I don't want you to follow the same path as your sister and joke about your happiness. "I stood up and tried to dissuade her.
