At this moment, the sprawl is like being in the ocean, swallowed by a sudden wave. In fact, she has been troubled by what Zeng Ruoshui told her for the past few days, she just wants to know why he wants to help, why he wants to ask Ruoshui for such an answer that she doesn't need at all.

But in any case, she never thought that he would actually say - I like you!

Time seemed to be frozen, and those moments became blurred, faintly dissipating in the four eyes, as if they were no longer important at all.

Across the high bookshelves, he was still standing opposite, his eyes not moving more than half a point, straight to himself. Her eyes began to flicker a little, but because of the sudden words, she didn't know how to face it.

The book she was still holding in her hand was clenched by her, because of nervousness, and because of this panic and hesitation, there was still a trace of sweetness, which she didn't dare to hope for but suddenly tasted sweetness.

But what about her?

She had already seen everything about him and that Miss Xia, she had never thought that he was a person who was alone without Yingying Yanyan, but after all this, she couldn't treat it as if it hadn't happened.

But no matter which answer it is, it seems that he doesn't follow his own heart, and he can't express what he thinks clearly.

As a result, the chaotic thoughts turned into a blank for a moment, and the clutter could only watch him motionless in the end.

In the awkward stalemate, Mansheng could no longer continue to look at him in opposition, and suddenly, without saying a word, she turned around and walked through the corridor with the book in her hand.

Wei Rong was still standing at the other end of the bookshelf, and in the gap in the air in front of her, she only saw her figure turn around and quickly disappear.

……

In a corner of the library, the chair opposite Zeng Ruoshui was suddenly gently pulled away, and someone had already sat down, "Have you chosen a book?" ”

Mansheng was a little flustered, and could only say "um".

Zeng Ruoshui was still buried in the notebook, so he didn't notice her abnormality, and occasionally, the keyboard sound was mixed up.

The "click, click" sound of the fingers falling, but the knock made my heart a little restless.

It wasn't long before someone came, this time the chair beside him was gently pulled apart.

Zeng Ruoshui subconsciously said, "I'm sorry, can I ask you to change the table?" ”

Zeng Ruoshui has never been in the habit of sharing tables with others, and today is not the weekend, there are still many empty spaces in the library, so he came over to squeeze a table. But when she looked up and saw someone coming, Rao was slightly stunned, "Mr. Wei? ”

Wei Rong also took a book and sat down, he smiled and asked, "Is there someone here?" ”

Since it's him, of course it doesn't matter, Zeng Ruoshui replied, "No, I thought it was a stranger." How did you come here, though? ”

Zeng Ruoshui looked at Lin Mansheng on the side again, she lowered her head and didn't make a sound, could it be that they had already taken a look at each other?

"You two are really good friends, and you even ask me the same questions." Wei Rong had already answered her confusion, "I just came here when I heard Mother Zhao say that you came here." ”

Zeng Ruoshui understood, "Mr. Wei seems to be very free recently, so he will come to report every day, and he is in such a good mood today, and he came to the library to read books together." ”

"Reading is inherently rewarding." Wei Rong replied with a smile.

Listening to them talking, Mansheng suddenly remembered that in the days he spent with him, he was often seen reading a book, often sitting quietly alone, he could not say a word, but he could spend the whole day, and after fading his smile, he was as quiet as air.

"The world in the book is quiet enough." He said again.

It was the first time Zeng Ruoshui had heard such remarks, ordinary people read books either to increase their knowledge, or to pass the time, and of course, there were also for meditation.

But his recognition is unprecedented!

Mansheng listened silently, but he seemed to understand, and thoroughly understood the reason why he liked to read: because the real world, the real people, are too disturbed.

"You continue to be busy when I don't exist." Wei Rong said with a smile, signaling that Zeng Ruoshui didn't have to be disturbed by himself.

Zeng Ruoshui didn't care, since she was a child, she grew up in a state where she could automatically block disturbances anywhere. However, what she was curious about was why Director Wei hadn't said a word to Mansheng after he arrived. It's also strange that there is no creep?

The two sat side by side, just across from each other, but neither of them paid attention, not even a single glance met.

There's something eerie about it......

Zeng Ruoshui was suspicious, but he didn't think much about it, just looked down at the screen again. But Yu Guang couldn't die to see that Mr. Wei on the other side picked up the shared note paper and carbon pen on the table and wrote a line, and then quietly pushed his hand and handed it to Lin Mansheng beside him.

Zeng Ruoshui was a little embarrassed, is it really good to pass the note so openly?

Mansheng was also stunned, he actually handed her a small note?

The small note was in her hand, a line of vigorous and powerful handwriting, and he was asking—what book are you reading?

……

Passing notes seems to have only been done when he was in school. At that time, he was in class with Zeng Ruoshui and Shao Xuan in the same classroom, and he always quietly carried the teacher behind his back to do this kind of small action when he had nothing to do. At that time, it was still very popular in schools, adding a lot of fun to the boring recess life.

But how would a person like him do such a childish thing when he was a student?

And in front of Zeng Ruoshui?

Between receiving or not answering, Mansheng hesitated again and again, and finally surrendered and received the note in his hand. But even so, she didn't respond.

Wei Rong originally watched her take the note away, thinking that she would reply, but there was no follow-up. She just pressed under the book, with a pen on the side, but she didn't touch it!

As if he didn't give up, another small note passed over - what kind of book were you reading?

Why did he pass the note again? Can't you just read quietly and don't do this?

Mansheng lowered his head and looked at the book, but he seemed to clearly feel Zeng Ruoshui's curious gaze and was looking at himself. As if she was out of options, she could only take the small note again, this time she couldn't continue to ignore it, and took the pen on the side and went back. After he finished writing, the little note was pushed into his hand again.

- Mansfield Manor, don't send me another note.

Wei Rong saw that under his line of words was her delicate and neat handwriting. But he ignored her advice and continued to pass it on.

- Good-looking?

- That's it, I told you not to pass me the note!

- Who wrote the book?

- Jane Austen, I'll show you the book, don't you pass it on again, don't you understand?

This time, in addition to the note, the book she was reading in her hand was also handed over, Wei Rong glanced at the content of the page, took the note and wrote it and went back to the past - I'm not interested in female love stories, what are you reading now?

Creeping is almost out of line, what's going on with him? Keeping an eye on the book in her hand?

I couldn't bear it anymore, I finally couldn't sit down, and I held the pen in my hand and wrote quickly and quickly!

As soon as the small note was written, she simply put all the books in her hand to him, and the whole person stood up, and she said to Zeng Ruoshui, "I'll go around again." ”

Zeng Ruoshui didn't say anything, and responded, "Okay." ”

Wei Rong suddenly had an extra stack of books in his hand, and the words on the small note made him smile in amazement—it's all for you!!

is probably really annoyed, so he used three "exclamation marks" in a row, revealing a bit of childishness in his strength, which made him bend his eyebrows.

At this time, Zeng Ruoshui finally asked out loud, "Are all independent directors so leisurely?" ”

……

The note was pressed, Wei Rong raised his head, and saw that Zeng Ruoshui on the other side had already looked at him, "This is why I am not willing to be the direct person in charge of any company." ”

It can be regarded as an answer, Zeng Ruoshui nodded and said, "I heard that in the past few years, Director Wei has helped several daughters of family businesses in China and assisted them in taking the position. ”

"What did you tell you?" Wei Rong asked with a smile.

In fact, even if Zeng Ruoshui wanted to find out his details, he didn't have the ability. In the face of his words, Zeng Ruoshui did not deny it, "I'm just a concubine and I don't have any sources, so I can only listen to it randomly." However, since Director Wei did not refute it, is it true? ”

"In this way, I have assisted several people, both at home and abroad." Wei Rong's gentle eyes shone brightly.

Of course, Zeng Ruoshui also knows this, so he feels even more legendary for this director Wei, "With Mr. Wei's ability, he is willing to be subordinate to others and only be an independent director, isn't it a pity?" ”

"Everyone has their own ambitions, Miss Zeng." Wei Rong replied, "It's like you are willing to enter your own company, but some people are unwilling, it is a personal choice." ”

Zeng Ruoshui agreed, but there was a question in his heart that had been entrenched in his heart for too long, "It's just that I don't know that as an independent director of a company, I care about my boss like this?" Because you know she's sick, you come to report it every day? ”

She asked vaguely, but directly, as if she wanted to find out some relationships, but it didn't play much role in Wei Rong. He calmly agreed, and asked lightly, "I thought we had a verbal agreement that day, but you still told me about helping Shitong." ”

Zeng Ruoshui was a little surprised, but she was not too surprised, because when she told Lin Mansheng, she knew that one day she would face the scene at this moment. In fact, she also hoped that Mansheng could ask him an answer.

"I'm more willing to confess than to owe favors, after all, it's all in Yicheng, and I can't hide it." Zeng Ruoshui said calmly.

"There is nothing wrong with saying this, but since the verbal promise has been ruined, I can only have reservations about whether Miss Zeng can keep her word in the future." He smiled and said, the euphemism of refusal was also decisive, "So, if there is a question about Miss Zeng, I will not answer it again." ”

Zeng Ruoshui was dumbfounded by him, and he couldn't find words back and forth for a long time.

Wei Rong had already closed the book, "It's almost time, and I'm going back." Miss Zeng has worked hard these days, with friends like you and Miss Shao by her side, she will definitely not be bored. When she's well, you can build a snowman with her. ”

When Zeng Ruoshui heard this, he couldn't help but feel a huge confusion in his heart. Earlier, because she was busy with business, she was not available, but after the project ended, Zeng Lounan gave her a vacation.

Was this a coincidence, or was it deliberate?

Could it be that it was because of this layer that he came to help?

Everything is entangled and confusing, and an incredible answer is frozen: he wants them to build a snowman with Mansheng?

However, this is impossible, too circuitous, and too tortuous......

Even more unnecessary!

Just when Zeng Ruoshui was pondering, he had already gotten up and whispered, "I'll leave first, wait for her to come back, and tell her." ”

……

Mansheng received a text message from Zeng Ruoshui before he took the book back. When he turned back again, he really saw that the chair that Fang Cai Wei Rong had sat on was already empty, and there was no one in it.

But the books she left behind were still neatly placed there, as if they had not been touched.

Mansheng sat back in his place, as if in confirmation, "He's gone." ”

"I said it was about the same time, and I went back." Zeng Ruoshui replied truthfully, and she proposed again, "Mansheng, let Shao Xuan come over this weekend, and let's build a snowman together while the snow hasn't melted yet?" ”

When it snowed in winter as a child, Mansheng liked to build a snowman the most, and when she heard her say this, she happily agreed, "Okay, then I'll tell her now!" ”

With her phone in her palm, she had already started texting.

Shao Xuan quickly replied: I have one at the door of my house, but it's big, go to your house on the weekend to build a bigger one!

Seeing that he has found a partner who can accompany the snowman, he is finally no longer alone.

But her heart throbbed because she saw the little notes left behind.

It was he who said that he liked her, but he didn't know whether it was true or not.

She couldn't think through it, and she didn't want to think about it anymore, she could only tell herself: just as if it hadn't happened, he was just a whim!

Lin Mansheng, you can't take it seriously!

……

It's the end of January, and the Chinese New Year's Eve is the annual holiday in early February.

As the year approached, Mansheng had recovered his health. As soon as your body is better, your spirit is also better. On this day, with the doctor's consent, Mansheng was finally able to go to the company.

Gao Jin was instructed on the phone, and Mansheng changed his clothes and set off.

Returning to Jinyue, Mansheng entered the department, it was already a new atmosphere, Yu Anan and others were very happy to see her return, and hurriedly reported the progress to her, about the handling of debts.

Mansheng was also surprised when he heard this, "Why didn't you agree immediately, the next family is willing to pay back, just call the finance department directly." ”

"Director Wei said that the debt collection is your main responsibility, and if you don't nod, he can't count. So, wait until you're well before you decide. Cheng Mulei said the original words.

Mansheng understood, but he also had to admire his meticulousness, "Now contact the remaining debtors immediately, and be sure to transfer the money to the designated account within three days!" ”

"Yes!" Yu An'an received the order, but there was one more thing that he also had doubts, "Director Lin, what decision did you make about the Bingcheng project?" ”

Cheng Mulei is also curious, I don't know how she will choose.

Smiling, she looked at them and asked, "If it were you, what would you choose?" ”

Gao Jin, a sincere person, was the first to reply, "That Manager Wang has already canceled the cooperation with our Jinyue, and the company has taken the land to compensate, and they have taken advantage of it." If they still agree to cooperate now, they will probably be very happy. ”

"But if you agree to cooperate, it will be a good thing for Jinyue." Cheng Mulei added.

Yu Anan was still angry with that Manager Wang, she had long known that person's inferiority, "Although he apologized and learned a lesson, he was still not convinced!" I don't want to cooperate with such a person, my heart is not right, and I dare to take advantage of Director Lin! ”

The three of them talked, and then looked at Lin Mansheng, but saw her smiling and had already walked out of the office.

Her voice came from the front, "Secretary Yu, please come to the company now." ”

……

Jinyue's general manager's office has not been here for a while.

After so many things, Lin Yifan was already quite afraid when he saw Lin Mansheng again. Because now the shares in Lin Yishan's name have been transferred to Lin Shuhan's name, so in this way, the ownership of their sister and brother can be equal to their own, which is not a good thing for Lin Yifan!

"I see that your face is still quite pale, if your body is not well, you don't need to rush to the company, anyway, you are about to take annual leave." Lin Yifan said simply.

Mansheng sat down on the sofa, "I didn't want to come to the company today, but the problem of debt in hand needs to be decided by me, and it has just been resolved." ”

"It's really hard for you." Lin Yifan was sitting on the chair, and he did not change his position.

Mansheng was a little lazy, and she said, "There is one more thing, which is also the main purpose of coming to the company today." ”

Lin Yifan stared, and he opened his mouth and asked, "Are you for the Ice City project?" ”

"Not bad." Overgrowth has responded.

"I've refused." Lin Yifan said with certainty.

But Mansheng said, "But I have also agreed to cooperate." ”

Lin Yifan was dumbfounded, and said with some annoyance, "Are you deliberately trying to disagree with me?" ”

"How?" Creep looked at him.

"The whole company knows it, and I clearly refuse! Now you agree again, making it clear that you won't give me face? "Isn't it a joke that the person in charge of a dignified company can't be the master?

"A few days ago, Manager Wang personally visited me, and he was sincere in his words and sincerely asked for cooperation. I think that this project company has always been optimistic, so isn't it a pity to let it go like this? ”

"Have you forgotten what he did to you before?" Lin Yifan really couldn't figure it out, if any woman with backbone was like this, she wouldn't agree after listening to it, "Don't you have pride and no self-esteem?" ”

Mansheng smiled, "Proud? Esteem? And how much is it worth in this mall? Can Jinyue be listed? Can the project find a next home to continue to achieve? Yifan, no matter what you say, you are also the person in charge, you should know better than me, no one cares about the process, what you value is the result! ”

"You also say I'm in charge! It's up to me to decide! Lin Yifan scolded angrily.

Mansheng nodded and said, "Originally, you should have made the decision, but because you are not good at going back on your word, let me be this bad person, and I will be regarded as robbing you of your sovereignty." I'm done with what I'm going to report, so I won't bother you busy. ”

Lin Yifan had already commanded her again, and he couldn't do anything to her at all! He slapped the case from his chair and shouted at her, "Even if this project is to be decided, I should sign it!" ”

"If you have the ability to sign it, then you can go!" Mansheng replied, got up from the couch and walked out.

Lin Yifan was so angry that he immediately asked the secretary to contact Manager Wang, but the receipt given by Manager Wang was, "I'm sorry, Manager Lin, Ou Yan said that whoever gave the land for compensation will sign a ......contract with whomever he wants."

……

Just after Yu Anan contacted Manager Wang's side, the other party quickly rushed to Jinyue.

In the Mansheng office, Manager Wang quickly signed the contract again and continued to implement the project. At the same time, when the contract was in his hand, he was almost grateful, a hanging boulder in his heart finally fell, he could finally go back to the ice city to make a business, and save his life!

"Thank you Director Lin for giving me this opportunity, and thank you Director Wei for being so considerate!" Manager Wang couldn't stop thanking him, and then left with someone, "Then I'll go back to Bingcheng first, and for the follow-up, please keep in touch with us at any time!" ”

"Okay, we'll send a new person in charge over after the year." Sprawling echoes to send off guests.

finally sent Manager Wang and his entourage away, and Mansheng also solved a tricky trouble, Yu Anan was still muttering, "I hate it when I see that Manager Wang, there must be two sides before and after!" ”

"Okay, the annoying one has gone back, and it will be rare to meet in the future." Mansheng said with a smile, clapping his hands and inviting, "You have all worked hard these days, come to my house for dinner and play together on the weekend!" ”

When the three of them heard this, they were also very happy, "Good! ”

"Then please ask Secretary Fang and them to come together, Secretary Yu, you can contact us." Creeping is the way again.

"What about Director Wei?" Yu Anan asked.

Since he said that he liked her that day, Mansheng really felt that he didn't know how to face it, but he didn't invite him, and it seemed that he couldn't say anything.

……

On this day, Mansheng only stayed in the company for half a day and left, and Yu Anan immediately contacted Fang Yizhen. After Fang Yizhen returned to Haitian Tower, he would continue to sign the Ice City project.

After Zhao Feiming learned about it, he sighed, "I didn't see that Miss Lin is such an unruly daughter." ”

changed to the usual daughter, that must be unwilling.

"How can someone who can follow us be a mortal?" Ren Xiang replied, but it was not strange.

It's just that Fang Yizhen still has one more thing to say, "Secretary Yu said that Miss Lin invited us to her house together on the weekend. ”

"Have you invited me?" Ren Xiang immediately asked.

"Please." Fang Yizhen listed them one by one, "Assistant Zong, Lawyer Zhao, all please." ”

"What about Rong Shao?" After listening to it for a while, Zong Quan asked.

Wei Rong sat there, but there was no movement.

It's just that these days are also unusual, Rong Shao, who usually goes to Mrs. Feng's old residence every day to report, suddenly stops. Everyone didn't know what the reason was, so they didn't dare to ask.

In fact, regarding whether Rong Shao was invited, Fang Yizhen said, "What Miss Lin means is that she knows that Rong Shao has been busy recently, so everything is up to Rong Shao to decide." ”

That is, there is no active invitation anymore?

Ren Xiang didn't dare to talk any more, and muttered in his heart: Where is Rong Shao busy, they are busy these days, and the rest of the companies are also making summaries, but Rong Shao is painting in the studio every day!

Everyone looked at Rong Shao again and saw a smile on his face, which was so gentle and kind that it made people feel a tingling on their scalps.

His gloomy voice immediately came, "You have a really good relationship with her. ”

"......" Everyone suddenly had the same idea: they should keep their distance from Miss Lin in the future!

……

The weekend is fast approaching.

Zeng Ruoshui had been living in the old mansion and had never left, so she had been waiting for people to arrive.

Yu Anan and the others came with Gao Jin's car, and picked up Shao Xuan by the way, of course, this is also what Lin Mansheng meant, and it is convenient to come over along the road.

On the other side, Fang Yizhen and others were also arriving one after another.

After everyone arrived, Yu An'an looked at the number of people, and she was surprised, "Director Wei didn't come?" And the big guy didn't come either? ”

Fang Yizhen said, "When I came out, I answered a phone call temporarily, probably because I had something to deal with, so I didn't come over together." ”

However, Rong Shao didn't say whether he would come! So they can't eat it either!

"Rong Shao and Sect Assistant, it should be there in a while......" Fang Yizhen could only say that.

If there was still expectation in the past, then now because he already knew that he had always been a free and easy person, Mansheng was very indifferent, "It's okay, it's not an important day, it's just a weekend get-together." Let's all sit down, play and chat, and treat this place as if it were your own home, and you're welcome. ”

Originally, it was not the first time that everyone had come and gone here, so it was no stranger, but after a while, playing chess and playing games, Cheng Mulei and Zhao Feiming discussed the relevant provisions of the law, and Gao Jin listened with interest, the hall was already lively.

Shao Xuan shouted, "Aren't you going to build a snowman?" Let's go pile one? ”

"Okay!" Mansheng said with a smile, and even asked the women to go together.

Everyone ran to the backyard, and the clearing was already covered with snow that had not melted. Ran out in the cold, put on gloves and started piling snow. Gather the snow one by one, and gather it all in one place first.

"Creeping, you just stand and watch, decorate the decoration for a while, the snow is cold, be careful of freezing!" Shao Xuan didn't dare to let her do it.

Zeng Ruoshui was also afraid that she would get sick, "Don't play in the snow, you will have a low-grade fever again." ”

Several women all had the same meaning, and they all nodded in agreement, and they were a little depressed, when they were so happy, everyone was playing, but she couldn't be together? But she still obeyed the will of the people, and after shoveling the snow for a while, she cheered on the sidelines.

"I'm tired, I'm thirsty!" Yu An'an was already spread on the ground.

Mansheng helped her up, sat her to the side and said, "I'll make a pot of tea, and you guys can rest first when you're tired." ”

……

Mansheng returned to the living room and went to the dining room to boil water and make tea. And Zhao's mother is busy in the kitchen, preparing a sumptuous dinner in the evening. When he was making tea, he heard a sound from the hall outside, it was Ren Xiang shouting, "Rong Shao, Xiaoquan, you have arrived!" ”

Looking through the hollow sliding doors and windows, I really saw Wei Rong's faint figure.

At the same time, he also looked over to his side, and after glancing at him, he turned his back sharply.

But when she turned around, she couldn't help but be annoyed, why did she avoid him like this?

Just when he was annoyed, the sound of footsteps sounded behind him, and it was his voice that sounded, "Brewing tea?" ”

Knowing he was coming, "Well, everyone is building a snowman and we're thirsty." ”

"Why aren't you together?" Wei Rong looked at her and asked.

"I was just sick and didn't dare to play for too long after playing for a while." Mansheng said as he prepared the teacup and took the tea bag.

"You agreed to continue to cooperate with the Bingcheng project, and you have signed a contract." Wei Rong leaned against the wall, looking at her busy figure, just chatting with her.

"You think I'm going to say no?" Mansheng asked rhetorically, and said to himself, "I took out the land to compensate, the other party has already benefited, and we have to continue to invest in recovering the land of Ice City." Wouldn't it be a fool to lose all the losses and not take the project down? ”

"If you still don't cooperate with your efforts at this point, then what I have taught you these days will be in vain." Wei Rong said in a deep voice.

When Mansheng heard his words, he remembered that most of the time had passed in the blink of an eye.

Wei Rong looked at her silently, obviously the water had not yet boiled, but she just turned her back to herself and refused to look back.

"You don't even dare to look at me now." Wei Rong said with a smile, and suddenly asked, "What I said that day also annoyed you?" ”

I haven't seen each other for a few days since I left the library, but every time I think about it, I feel uneasy.

At this moment, Mansheng finally turned around, and she asked him, "What do you say?" ”

The choice was thrown back into Wei Rong's hands, and he looked at her face, which already had a vivid color, a healthy flush. Her black eyes are so translucent because the sun is translucent.

Wei Rong smiled, the corners of his lips were no longer the usual arc, and he was a little more self-deprecating, "Don't you believe it." ”

He had already answered for her, and the overflowing heart was grabbed the moment he spoke, and he actually tasted a little bitterness.

For he was heard to say, "I don't even believe in myself." ”

So, what now?

He said it casually, but he felt new for a while, so he didn't even think about it himself, so he blurted it out like this?

His thoughts began to become messy again, and he could no longer sort it out, and he finally spoke again, "Why do you come to tell others things that you are not sure about?" Don't you know that this will only cause trouble and is very irresponsible? ”

Not only for her, but also for herself, at least emotional matters, you can't be so hasty and rash.

She never expected her liking to get the same response in return, because she knew that liking someone was always her own thing.

But if you can't even be sure whether you really like it, why should you tell the other party willfully?

"I know, it's just your whim." In the chaos of the chopping and unraveling, he said, "This kind of liking is just fun, and it can't be taken seriously!" ”

In the end, she can only think like this, and it is better to think like this than to have unrealistic expectations.

The kettle at the back has been boiled, the switch has been jumped and the lights are no longer on, hot steam is coming out, white smoke clouds obscuring the vision, everything seems real and illusory.

She was only two meters away from him, and he had no smile on his face, and said in a deep male voice, as if asking, "You think I told this joke to a few women." ”
