Chapter Twenty-Seven: Drilling the Horns of the Ox

At this moment, the mobile phone suddenly vibrate, and Lin Ran didn't look at the caller at all, so he directly pressed answer: "Hey." ”

It was very quiet on the other side of the phone, Lin Ran counted down in her heart, and decided to count to thirty No matter whether the opposite was the emperor Lao Tzu, she had to hang up the phone to give herself a clean up.

When she counted to twenty-eight, a magnetic voice like running water hitting a stone came: "What are you busy with?" ”

It's Mo Zhi.

For girls who have not lacked love since childhood, such words are actually a simple greeting, because they are down-to-earth and have a sense of security that grows out of love, and they know that this is a natural word of concern. But Lin Ran is not, she has been forced to be independent by life since she was a child, and naturally has grown a body of spikes, and some words will step into her minefield, such as what have you been doing lately, what is the use of you doing this, I think it makes no sense for you to do this or how you should be.

But I don't know why, hearing this sentence at such a time, Lin Ran suddenly relaxed, and for the first time he felt exactly the care in this sentence, and the exhaustion from the bottom of his heart came up like a wave.

What am I busy with?

She asked herself inwardly.

From the family banquet that night, no, from the time she found the clues of Qiao An'an and Qin Hanhai's relationship, it seemed that everything had become a mess, entangled together, the past, the present, and the future involved many people, many relationships.

So as usual, she chose to bury everything in her heart, for fear that as soon as she opened her mouth, she would expose the weakness that she hated and couldn't figure out.

Immersed in his own thoughts, Lin Ran didn't notice that the man on the other end of the phone was waiting patiently.

It didn't take long for her to whisper, "Some...... I don't even know what it is. ”

Mo Zhi could hear that there was gloom in the girl's voice, for Lin Ran, when such emotions were exposed, from the age of ten onwards, he could almost count them on one hand.

It's not a matter of standing in front of someone's store all the time, Lin Ran put his other hand in his pocket, and slowly walked down the street with the phone.

After all, it is a cold winter wax moon, and the wind with a bone-chilling wind is still blowing unscrupulously. But all the wind was blocked by the building, and it didn't blow too much, only the sound of the wind pouring into the narrow road, and the sound of cars and people could be heard, but it was so far away.

As he walked, Lin Ran suddenly felt very bored, found a sheltered place and stopped, and said mumu: "Second uncle, do you think that I have made my father's wish come to fruition by doing this?" ”

She had no memory of her father's accident, but on her twelfth birthday, her grandfather personally handed her the letter her father had written when she was born.

At the end of the letter, I hope that my daughter can be safe and happy all her life, and be a gentle and kind girl.

But she calculates step by step, where can she be considered gentle and kind?

Mo Zhi also knew about this, he put down the document in his hand, and said softly: "Do you think what you did was wrong?" ”

"That's not true, if people don't offend me, I won't offend people, besides, I've given them countless opportunities over the years." Lin Ran tugged at the corners of her mouth stiffly, trying to pull out a smile that was as peaceful as usual, "It's just that I just feel ...... I feel like I'm going to be the kind of person I hate. ”

Lin Ran was not this kind of "Buddha" personality from the beginning.

When she was a child, although she was well-behaved and sensible in front of her elders, she was like a tomboy when she went out to play, and besides, a child, she would do whatever she could, so Mo Zhicai liked to tease her from the beginning of knowing her.

But after Qiao Anan learned to pretend to be clever in front of her parents, but secretly because she was jealous that she was the eldest lady of the Qiao family, she quickly learned to hide her emotions and learn to deal with people's hearts.

In order to avoid trouble, or to say that she is too lazy to deal with trouble, she does not fight or grab unimportant things, and when someone really touches the bottom line, she will do it, a sword is fatal, and she will never give the other party room to turn over.

"I feel like I've become sleek, calculating, and not as true as I used to be?" Mo Zhi joked, "Or is it becoming more and more like an annoying adult like me?" ”

Lin Ran was dumbfounded for a while: "This is really not, I will sincerely admire the advantages of natural enemies." ”

There is one thing to say, Mo Zhi rolled around in the mall as an adult, and if he fought alone on such a Shura Road, if he didn't hone his scheming temperament and fearsome wrists, he would have been gnawed raw by those who ate people and didn't spit out bones.

"Second uncle, you want to mess around in the mall, there's no way." Lin Ran didn't realize what he blurted out when he was confused, he just said whatever he wanted, "But is it necessary for me to do this, why do I have to hide it, I can't say whatever I want, and do whatever I want?" ”

"Lin Ran, people have to grow up." The man's gentle voice reached her ears through the radio waves, thick like the woolen coat she wore on her body that day, "When I was a child, people were ignorant, and when I grew up, I gradually understood things, knew what to do, what not to do, and what to say and what not to say." ”

Lin Ran moved uncomfortably: "I didn't mean to be like when I was a child......

"It's not that if you calculate people, you go against your father's expectations of you." Mo Zhi's voice gradually became serious, "I know that your father's last wish is to want you to be an upright person. But the so-called integrity and integrity does not mean that you don't have any scheming, but that you are open-minded and do not take the evil path to harm others. ”

The evening sun hit her just now, and Lin Ran looked up to see that the sunset was so good and so soft, it seemed to calm people's hearts.

Or perhaps, it was because of Mo Zhi's words that his heart calmed down.

"You remember my words, Lin Ran."

She heard someone knocking on the door opposite, but Mo Zhi's voice was still not in a hurry, and it sounded in her ears properly: "People have to go to society to temper, no matter how sleek and sophisticated your appearance becomes, but as long as your heart remains the same, you are always yourself." ”

hung up the phone, the corners of Mo Zhi's lips still had a gentle aftertaste, so that the assistant who came in to report the progress of the work even secretly pinched himself to confirm whether he was dreaming.

"This plan will be made tonight, and I will negotiate with the other party tomorrow morning." When he was distracted, the assistant heard the indifferent voice of his boss, "Then go and arrange the afternoon car back to Sioux City." ”

The assistant was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly opened the schedule to confirm the itinerary: "But the second master, this is too rushed, and even if you negotiate tomorrow morning, whether you can get a result is two words......

Mo Zhi did not give her a chance to continue: "Our sincerity is already on the table, and if the other party is not clear, there is no need to continue talking." If you go to the personnel office for those who work overtime tonight, you will arrange a week of paid leave and triple overtime pay. ”

Having said that, and giving such a generous compensation, no one will not finish the plan like beating chicken blood, and after so many years, the implementation of Mo Zhi's decision-making has become a habit of the company's top and bottom people, after all, experience has proved that if you don't listen to the second master, sooner or later it will be a big loss.

Watching the assistant close the door and leave, Mo Zhi's eyes refilled with the gentleness that had only appeared when he treated Lin Ran.

His little girl is really growing up slowly, and she is gradually becoming an independent and tough adult.

But...... What did she just call him?

Mo Zhi raised his eyebrows, and his lips hooked up a smile that Lin Ran would be alarmed when he saw it, ready to escape.

Lin Ran, who was picking a cake, sneezed fiercely and said to herself, "Who thinks of me so much?" ”

However, recently, there are many people who have been talking about her back and forth, Lin Ran rubbed her nose, and she didn't take it seriously at all.

After chatting with Mo Zhi, her mind was straightened out a lot, in fact, it is not that she does not understand the truth, but there are always times when people will fall into their own thinking circles, avoid answers, and stubbornly want to find an answer.

Usually we call this a "drill tip".
