The last contact between her and Li Mao was on WeChat, where Li Mao revealed to her the abnormal situation of the Jingfeng factory. At that time he mentioned that he had already worked elsewhere. At that time, her attention was all in the factory, and she didn't ask in detail, today, it seems that it is Huaxing who works?

Li Mao's explanation overturned her speculation: "Mr. Ruan, I know that you must have heard some rumors from the Lin family, whether you believe it or not, but I am really not a spy of Huaxing." After resigning from Lin, I first went to a small company. You know, big companies have done things, and when you go back to small companies, you feel very hopeless and uncertain. When I was considering changing jobs, Huaxing took the initiative to hand me an olive branch, giving me the same position as Lin's, and having employee shares. ”

At this point, he paused for a moment before continuing: "It is impossible for me to refuse such a good condition. ”

"I understand." Ruan Shu nodded.

Not to mention that digging the foot of the wall is everywhere, even if Li Mao changed jobs during Lin's service, it is understandable, not to mention that now he is changing jobs after resigning.

She could feel that Li Mao's "stagnation" was not because of the competitive relationship between Huaxing and the Lin family, but because she was sorry for her.

But there's nothing to be sorry about.

"Li Mao, you should know that I am no longer in the Lin Clan." Ruan Shu curled his lips lightly.

Li Mao stared at her, his eyes moved slightly, he was silent for a few seconds, and only sighed lightly.

Ruan Shu half jokingly and half teasingly: "It turns out that you are in charge of the marketing department of Huaxing now, no wonder I saw in the news that the Lin family has been lost one after another recently, not to mention the small ones, but the big ones, the Lin family has already lost two agency rights in your hands." Knowing yourself and knowing your opponent, you will not be defeated in a hundred battles, you have worked in the Lin family for many years, and it is worth the price of Huaxing. Hey, Zhang Weimo is still too young compared to you. ”

Li Mao was slightly embarrassed: "That Director Zhang is very capable, when I was her age, I didn't have her level of market experience at all." At the beginning, she only worked as an assistant for you, and I never expected that she would be the one who took over the marketing department, directly past those senior employees. ”

Ruan Shu pursed his lips lightly - Zhang Weimo is a case, regardless of seniority and ability, and now he is still well-known in the business world. She has not yet figured out Zhang Weimo's camp.

Li Mao's words continued: "To be able to take the sweetness from the Lin family, the achievements and merits are not my own. Huaxing's momentum is already very strong, and it belongs to the whole team and the whole company. ”

Ruan Shu joked: "It seems that you have a good time in Huaxing." It's more enjoyable than when I was in Lin's. ”

Li Mao did not deny it: "Huaxing and Lin are different, there is no competition for power between the two managers, and there is no division between employees, so there is no need to worry too much about the open and secret struggle with colleagues, the atmosphere is more relaxed, and you can concentrate more on work." ”

After saying this, he probably still felt a little offended, so he carefully looked at her expression.

In fact, Ruan Shu was not reluctant to obey, because what Li Mao said was the truth.

She and Lin Chengzhi have been fighting for power for many years, and almost half of each department is divided between the two of them, and he inserts eyeliner to her, and she buys the people around him, especially at the annual shareholders' meeting, which is a vicious battle. Of course, it is always her who has the advantage.

However, while the disadvantages are obvious, the benefits cannot be denied. At least, if it weren't for the hungry wolf Lin Chengzhi watching, she would have lost half of her will and combat effectiveness. The Lin family may have been bankrupt by her long ago.

Retracting his distant thoughts, Ruan Shuwaner: "Don't be modest, I used to regard you as a fierce general, if you are modest, doesn't it mean that I have no vision?" It also means that Boss Cao, who deliberately digs you, has no vision? And I also lost my face in front of Boss Cao. ”

Li Mao smiled lightly: "Well, yes, you can't make Mr. Ruan lose face." ”

At this time, his expression and attitude have somewhat returned to the way he used to get along with her: there is no rigid respect between his superiors and subordinates, but the comfort between ordinary friends. Ruan Shu pondered, stirred the coffee, and then teased: "Huaxing's team has been praised so well by you, it seems that this time you have the right to act as the agent of the new product in the United States." ”

"Mr. Ruan heard about this?"

"Huaxing and the Lin family are fighting fiercely, I will hear about it." Ruan Shu said simply.

Li Mao condensed: "Actually...... There is no chance of victory. ”

He didn't say much with concern.

However, it was enough for Ruan Shu to smell a little bit of cattiness - not sure?

She asked no further questions.

That's enough.

They weren't perfect, just as she wanted.

But listening to Li Mao, at this time, the topic turned to her: "What is Mr. Ruan busy with now?" ”

"Nothing busy. After leaving the Lin family, he has been resting until now. Ruan Shu was concise and to the point.

Li Mao is also a person who understands her temper, so he didn't study it carefully, and then wondered: "Mr. Ruan, why did you come to Huaxing?" ”

The question came to the point. Ruan Shu smiled slightly: "Come to you Boss Cao." ”

"Are you looking for Boss Cao?" Li Mao was not only surprised, but also obviously couldn't understand the reason.

He politely didn't ask.

Ruan Shu didn't tell him specifically, but said: "I have some personal matters that I want to talk to him, but I don't have his contact information, so I abruptly found the company directly." Originally, I was still worried about how to tell the front desk lady, and considering my embarrassing identity, if I really appeared in front of Huaxing's employees, the news reached Lin's, and there might be unnecessary trouble. Coincidentally, it happened to meet you. ”

Li Mao heard the meaning of her words, and without too much hesitation, he said, "Mr. Ruan, you are indeed not very convenient. I told our boss Cao that you want to have tea with him, how about it? ”

"It couldn't be better." Ruan Shushu raised his eyebrows, "Thank you." ”

"Mr. Ruan doesn't have to be polite." Saying that, Li Mao hesitated slightly, "I can only do this little favor, Boss Cao's side-"

"I understand." Ruan Shu grabbed the conversation, "It's enough for you and me to convey it, whether Boss Cao is free or not, whether he agrees or not, it's all up to fate." ”

Yes, it's fate. However, her intuition and hunch were very strong: Cao Wangde must be free.

Even if he was out of curiosity, curious about what she wanted to talk to him, he would definitely meet her.

……

The unexpected reunion with Li Mao really did her a lot of work and saved her time. All she had to do next was to wait for Li Mao to bring her good news.

Passing by the mall on the way back, Ruan Shu thought that it was time to add something new to his wardrobe for summer clothes, so he turned the steering wheel and turned in.

The staff at Givenchy welcomed her very warmly and recommended the new model first.

After turning his eyes to look over, Ruan Shu's narrow phoenix eyes immediately narrowed coldly—a green floral dress.

Scold.

Familiar.

It was the one worn by the woman next to him when he met Fu Lingyuan in the jewelry store last week.

The clerk sensed that something was wrong with her expression, smiled and asked, "Lady doesn't like it?" This skirt is chiffon with a cinched waist, fresh and thin. And indigo, maybe more—"

"I hate wearing skirts the most." Ruan Shu had a cold face, and directly interrupted the clerk a little unceremoniously, ignoring the embarrassment of the clerk, walked out of Givenchy, replaced Chanel, and in her heart excluded the brand Givenchy from her future choice.

There is no so-called "shopping" here for her, and she always goes straight to the point with a purpose. Today, with this little episode, she was in a bad mood, and she lost interest even more, so she chose three sets of pants a little casually, and settled the bill.

When I took the elevator downstairs, through the glass, I caught a glimpse of two familiar figures on a certain floor.

One is Wang Xiangshang, and the other is Lin Miaofu......?

Holding hands, talking and laughing, like a pair of good sisters.

When did the two of them get together?

Ruan Shu was stunned for a moment, his first reaction was that he was dazzled, and he was about to take a closer look at the glass, the elevator had already descended. She turned around and pressed the elevator button, and when she reached the floor where she had just arrived, she followed it around, but she didn't find the two of them again.

I searched upstairs and downstairs along the railing for a while, but to no avail.

Ruan Shu immediately called Aunt Yu, who was in charge of taking care of Lin Miaofu in the Lin Mansion.

After not passing the words for a long time, Aunt Yu was slightly surprised: "Miss Ruan? ”

Ruan Shu didn't have the leisure to greet her: "Where is the third lady now?" ”

"The third lady made an appointment with a friend to play and went out in the morning."

Very good, she really read it right, it's really Lin Miaofu. Ruan Shu secretly sneered, and then asked, "What's the situation with the third lady recently?" ”

"I obediently sat at home for a month, and I also drove out my graduation thesis, and the graduation ceremony in school was two days away. In the recent graduation season, she went out every day, either to meet classmates or friends. ”

Oh, she still hasn't finished after all. It seems that a lot of hard work has been put in, and the thesis has been successfully defended in such a short period of time? No wonder Ruan Shu never received a call from the school again, but he forgot about it for a while.

"What kind of friends are you seeing?"

"Miss Ruan, I am only responsible for the living of the third lady in the Lin Mansion, and I am not in charge of what happens after she goes out." Aunt Yu replied.

The implication of "not under my control" is that someone else is in charge. Ruan Shu asked again: "Have you reported all these situations to Li Qing?" ”

I remember that Aunt Yu said that she didn't report directly to Fu Lingyuan, she was all in contact with Li Qing.

"Yes, Miss Ruan."

"Then has Li Qing explained anything else recently?"

Aunt Yu seemed to find her question strange: "No, Miss Ruan." That time, the third miss had a miscarriage, and Li Qing conveyed Mr. Fu's meaning that he would not care about the third miss for the time being, I had already told Miss Ruan about it. After that, I didn't serve Miss Three much for the whole month. I saw that the third lady didn't understand some taboos of confinement, and I couldn't help but remind her. It wasn't until the end of the third lady's confinement that Li Qing instructed me to return to my previous state. ”

Ruan Shu pursed his lips, was silent for two seconds, and said, "Okay, I know." Thank you. ”

Hanging up the phone, she frowned, staring for a long time - Lin Miaofu's situation in the Lin Mansion was monitored by Aunt Yu, and someone must have secretly followed her after she went out. Then Fu Lingyuan must have known that Lin Miaofu and Wang Xiangshang were mixed together, he didn't care?

Is it because you don't have to?

Thinking about it, Fu Lingyuan couldn't find any clues related to 200 million from Lin Miaofu, and he was about to run out of patience, right?

He didn't care, but she could. Not for Lin Miaofu, but for herself - she didn't believe that Wang Shangshang didn't know that Lin Miaofu was her sister.

I don't know how Wang Xiangshang and Lin Miaofu met now? What is the current situation?

After pondering deeply, Ruan Shu drove home for the time being.

On the way, I received a WeChat message from Li Mao, telling her that he went to the office to find Cao Wangde not long ago, and conveyed what he should convey. Cao Wangde only said that he would contact her on his own.

After reading the content, Ruan Shu couldn't help but smile unexpectedly.

As soon as the front foot returned to the residence, the back foot received a text message from Huang Jinrong.

Since he learned how to text her that night, Ruan Shu's text box was empty of anyone else, all filled with his messages.

Morning, noon and evening are about three meals a day, and then the rest of the time is given to him to play freely. Or remind her to cool down and wear more clothes so as not to catch a cold, or remind her not to blow too much air conditioning even though it is very hot, or ask her if she is going out or staying at home today, or when he buys fruit himself, he can send her a message to ask her what she likes and he will immediately express it to her.

Sometimes it was so small that Ruan Shu was really speechless. But...... Strangely, she didn't find it annoying.

Not every text message she could see in time, and not every text message was given a reply to him.

Huang Jinrong doesn't care about any of this, he still goes his own way, and it seems that he can text her every day without constraints, which is a happy and happy thing.

His happiness and happiness, she can feel between the lines. Although it was only words, when she read it, she could spontaneously make up his tone and expression, as if he was standing in front of her and talking to her face to face.

Now that he received this item, Ruan Shu clicked on it and saw that he asked: "Girl, it's not that Uncle Rong is deliberately urging you, Uncle Rong also knows that you are probably too busy to be free." Uncle Rong just wants to take a break to remind you that today is the eighth day. ”

What is the eighth day? Nature refers to the last time they met.

Smiling, Ruan Shu was afraid that he would be in a hurry, so he didn't dry him, and immediately replied: "Hmm." Good. Thank you, Uncle Rong, for the reminder. I'll go to you tomorrow. ”

Huang Jinrong didn't have any extra words, and sent a happy expression.

Ruan Shu couldn't help but grin even more - there was no doubt that his new trick of interceding must have been taught to him by Chen Qingzhou.

Putting down the phone, Ruan Shu took out the three sets of clothes he had just bought from the shopping bag, opened the closet and prepared to hang them in.

Leng Buding saw that there were two skirts inside, which she brought to Chen Qingzhou's villa from the new house at that time, and later brought here from Chen Qingzhou's villa.

Fu Lingyuan bought it for her before.

Ruan Shu blackened her eyes, took out the two skirts, walked over to the trash can placed by the window, and threw them in.

When I looked up, I casually looked out the window, and the tree came into view again, bathed in the twilight.

Of course, there was no one under the tree.

The red light of that night seemed to be an illusion, and never reappeared.

Even under the tree, she walked by every morning and never saw a cigarette butt again......
