Chapter 52: I'll Raise You All Your Life
In extreme confidence, I began the long wait, completely ignoring the coldness of the rooftop, I just believed that Angel would come, and there was no reason.
I shrank in a corner where there was no wind, lit a cigarette from time to time, continuing the hope that Angel would come, and I comforted myself over and over again: Zhang Yixi, don't worry, after smoking this cigarette, Angel will definitely come back......."
There were many cigarette butts on the ground, and the night couldn't be deeper, but the cold moonlight accompanied me was the raging cold wind.
I tightened my clothes and stared at the entrance to the rooftop, imposing hope on myself in exchange for a steady stream of disappointment.
I gradually became numb in the constant transition between hope and disappointment, I was a little tired, Angel would come, it was just a good expectation I gave myself, the reality is often so cruel, she didn't come after all.
It was already one o'clock in the evening, and I could have left here, but I didn't want to break the trust of Angel, and I said: whether she comes or not, I will wait for her here......
When the anticipation was completely gone, I finally fell asleep from exhaustion.
I had another dream: in the dream, I was in a huge ice cave, it was freezing, I was jumping wildly, trying to give myself a little warmth, but it was getting colder and colder..... Just when I thought I was going to die, suddenly a vague figure slowly walked towards me, and when she approached me, the ice cave actually began to melt, she took my hand, turned into a fairy, and flew to a warm place........ Eventually, the cold dissipated and my body was cut off from all the cold.
.......
The dazzling sunlight woke me up from the early morning, I subconsciously covered my eyes with my hands, and then looked around, the rooftop was still quiet and I could hear my own breathing, and there was no living thing except me.
I stretched my numb body, and a blanket slipped off my body.
I stared at the blanket for a long time, and vaguely thought of what happened, yesterday I was cold in my dream, but I was taken to a warm place by a person, so in reality, it corresponds: someone helped me cover the blanket and drive away the cold!
Angel, it must be Angel, she has been here, she has really been here!! But why did she leave so quietly? Why didn't she want to tell me in person that she wasn't doing all this?
I was a little disappointed, and I resented myself even more, if I was willing to hold on a little longer, in a conscious state, I would definitely be able to complete a communication with Angel and get the answer I wanted, but why did I want this answer so desperately? What if Angel gave me the answer I wanted?
Once again, I'm in a state of confusion!
.......
It's 7 o'clock in the morning, I left the rooftop cold and hungry, and after eating some breakfast nearby, I went home to clean up my scruffy self, and this afternoon I will attend an important press conference, which is almost related to the future fate of "Seaview Coffee".
I called my assistant and informed her that I was no longer dealing with any incidents before this afternoon and that I needed to take a half-day off to attend the press conference in the afternoon.
I drank a glass of milk, took some sleep medication, closed the curtains, plunged the room into darkness, and created an atmosphere for myself to sleep.
I set the alarm until half past eleven at noon, and then was about to turn off my phone and rest, when an unfamiliar phone number came in.
I hesitated for a moment and answered the phone: "Hey, hello. ”
After a moment of silence, the other end of the phone said, "It's me, Yixi." ”
"Qingyi?"
"Hmm."
I didn't want to infect Chen Qingyi with my bad mood, so I asked with a smile: "How is it, in Ireland, a paradise on earth, you must live well, right?" ”
"Very good...... I heard everything about Seaview Coffee, and she said that you are in a bad mood now..... I'm a little worried about you! ”
I pretended not to care and said with a smile: "No, you can put one hundred and twenty hearts, I Zhang Yixi has never experienced any storms in my life, and this little wave can't overturn my giant battleship." ”
"Why would you never want to show your insecurities and sorrows to me....... At least I was your wife, and I should have been your closest person! Chen Qingyi said.
After another moment of silence, I said, "I'm really fine, and I hope you're doing well...... Thank you very much for your concern, if there is nothing to do, I will hang up first, I want to rest for a while. ”
"Wait."
"What's wrong?"
After a period of silence, Chen Qingyi said to me: "This place in Ireland is really nice, we live near the sea, we can take a walk by the sea every day to face the sunset, there is a big manor nearby, the manor is very quiet, the owner is a very humorous old man, there are many flowers and trees that we have never seen before....... By the way, just downstairs where I live, there is an open-air seafood restaurant, where you can sit under the umbrella at dusk every day, watch the magnificent sea, drink some draft beer, eat some seafood, and blow the sea breeze, which is really pleasant! ...... You love the sea so much, you love beer, you will love it here. ”
I smiled and said, "If time permits, I'll go check it out, just listening to your language description is great!" ”
After another period of silence, Chen Qingyi finally said to me: "Yixi, I mean if, one day, you have nothing left in China, I hope you will immigrate to Ireland with Pippi and your parents....... I'll raise you for the rest of your life! ”
I was bitter and moved in my heart, but I didn't say anything more, just hung up the phone in silence.
When I raised my head, I saw the wedding photo hanging on the wall that had not been taken down, looking at Chen Qingyi's kind and gentle face in the photo, I suddenly wanted to cry!!
I was tired, sleepy, and tired, and I threw away all my thoughts and fell asleep completely.
......
The alarm clock rang at 11:30 p.m., and I woke up from my slumber, barely giving myself time to be fully awake, and immediately dressed up and walked to the bathroom to wash up.
The press conference was held at 2:30 p.m., and I finished my lunch as quickly as possible, and then immediately rushed to the company to make the final preparations before the press conference.
At about one o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Man came to my office, and we exchanged our progress.
I confirmed to Shen Man again: "Senior sister, the investor is sure that he will not withdraw his investment in the short term, right?" ”
"The answer I got was that not for the time being, the withdrawal of capital itself is a breach of contract, and they will have to pay the corresponding price, and now they still need to wait and see!"
I nodded and said, "Can you invite investors to join us at the press conference later, I hope they will always support us at the press conference, and their statements will help us calm the emotions of all parties!" ”
"Don't worry, I've thought of this too, I've sent an invitation to investors, and they will send a vice president of the company to join us at the press conference later." Shen Man said.
