"I just think your office has too little vegetation, so I thought I'd buy some to look better and healthier." Tao Yaoyao lied, so that she didn't want to be discovered by Li Chaozong.

However, her small actions had betrayed her nervousness, and Li Chaozong swept around the audience and deliberately asked, "Is it really rare?" ”

Li Chaozong's office, in addition to the decoration style according to his own preferences, the vegetation is in accordance with the standard specifications, there are two pots of tiger orchids by the door, there are spider plants on the desk, a pot of junzi orchid is placed in the four corners of the office, and there are more or less one or two small potted plants in the rest of the place, and the whole style looks very leisurely and elegant.

However, after Tao Yaoyao's enthusiasm, the original style of the layout has changed, and there will be more vegetation in all places, especially the floor-to-ceiling windows are placed in a row of small ones, and the desk is also placed in a row, and the whole environment looks like a small flower and bird market.

"Less, very little." Tao Yaoyao nodded seriously, even if everyone seemed to have enough, she still felt that there were not enough things, originally she wanted to move more, but she was afraid that it would be too high-profile, so she could only buy some small ones each time.

Li Chaozong thought that she was talking nonsense with her eyes open, but she was a little defeated.

He smiled helplessly and didn't say anything more.

At this time, Tao Yaoyao muttered in his heart, thinking that he was angry.

"If you don't like it, I'll move it out tomorrow."

Although he was a little reluctant, these were nothing compared to his mood.

"No need, if you move around and break the previous one, won't the gain outweigh the loss."

At this time, Tao Yaoyao didn't realize what Li Chaozong meant, and only thought about guaranteeing, "No, I will be very careful to move it, and if it is really broken, I will also take responsibility." ”

"I'm afraid you can't afford it." Li Chaozong said domineeringly, and the majesty made Tao Yaoyao dare not say a word more.

At this moment, the assistant knocked on the door and entered, carrying something in his hand.

Then, he walked over, and quickly walked his hands and feet down the coffee table, and put the things he had brought in.

It wasn't until he opened the lid that Tao Xiaoyao knew it was a meal.

"Eat."

Li Chaozong's chopsticks were handed to him, Tao Yaoyao was a little flattered, and his eyes were dumbfounded when he took the chopsticks.

"You...... Haven't you eaten yet? Tao Yaoyao asked hesitantly.

Li Chaozong sandwiched the dish and responded succinctly with the word "um".

One word will end the topic, Tao Yaoyao still wants to continue talking, but he is afraid that Li Chaozong will think she is verbose.

After the assistant finished setting the meal, he was called down by Li Chaozong when he was about to leave, "Let's eat together." ”

The assistant smiled, obviously shirking, "Mine is outside, I'll just go out to eat." ”

"Just bring it in." Li Chaozong said domineeringly, and did not give the assistant a chance to refuse at all.

The assistant was stunned for a few seconds, and then silently went outside to bring in the meal.

The three of them ate, but they ate very quietly, and no one said a word.

Tao Yaoyao was not a person who could hold her breath to eat, but this time she overcame this very well.

Halfway through the meal, Li Chaozong went to the side to answer the phone, leaving only Tao Yaoyao and his assistant.

Usually, she has not had much contact with the assistant, and in her impression, the assistant's personality is similar to that of Li Chaozong, and sometimes the way of behavior is also very maverick, and occasionally it is cold and stern.

"Don't think that if Mr. Li is good to you, you will always be dead hearted, sometimes giving up is the most correct decision."

The assistant said indifferently, which made Tao Yaoyao immediately stunned.

What does he mean......

It didn't seem to wait for Tao Yaoyao's response, the assistant raised his eyes to look at her once, saw her stunned appearance, and explained: "Mr. Li will not have a result with you, you give up." ”

"Why?" Although shocked, Tao Yaoyao cared about the second half of the assistant's sentence.

Why does everyone think that she and Li Chaozong will not have results.

The light-hearted assistant put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth, but she didn't reply to her for a while.

Tao Yaoyao stared at him like this, staring all the time.

"Mr. Li will always be good to you, it's just a brother's concern for his sister, you don't take his behavior for granted, as a response to you, otherwise it will only be you who will suffer in the end."

The assistant opened his mouth, openly and secretly persuading Tao Yaoyao.

However, she didn't want to understand.

"I don't understand what you mean, could you make it simpler?" Tao Yaoyao put down his chopsticks, and his mood that had finally improved fell to the bottom again.

Why? Why is her love so easy to fail in the eyes of everyone? Why is there no one who blesses her to be with Li Chaozong for a long time!

"He doesn't have a place for you in his heart."

The assistant said, although the words were light but very hurtful.

Tao Yaoyao's tears almost fell, she stubbornly endured it, and said half-loudly: "I know he doesn't have me in his heart, but I will try." ”

"Not all efforts are meaningful." The assistant's small voice hid a hint of reproach, and Tao Yaoyao didn't understand why the assistant would suddenly say such things to her. 360 Literature Network

"I know that sometimes it is meaningless to work hard, but not working hard will only make me feel useless, so I will not give up, and it is useless to persuade anyone."

Tao Yaoyao said stubbornly, the more everyone is not optimistic about her, the more she has to prove how much she loves Li Chaozong, and she is willing to pay no matter what she gives.

"Didn't you think that your behavior would cause trouble to Mr. Li?"

The assistant's words made Tao Yaoyao stunned again, she really hadn't thought about such a problem.

"You gave him what you wanted, but for him, it was only a nuisance, just like the vegetation in this office, his coffee cup, and your diligent cleaning every day, these are all things."

“……”

The assistant even knows all these things?

The assistant was like a roundworm in her stomach, knowing what she was thinking at the moment, so she began to persuade patiently, "Young, can't I see what I can't see?" He knows very well what you think about him, and he doesn't want to hurt your fragile soul if he doesn't pick it, but it doesn't mean that you can keep bothering him like this. ”

"I'm not bothering."

Tao Yaoyao lowered her eyes, and suddenly felt that her heart felt like she had been pricked by a needle a few times, and it hurt a little.

In the face of her obsession, the assistant sighed helplessly, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Li loves an impossible person in his heart, so it is impossible for him to fall in love with another woman in this life, don't waste your mind on him." ”

"Did Li Chaozong tell you to say these words?" Tao Yaoyao held back tears and looked at the assistant solemnly.

She thought that Li Chaozong had seen through everything about her, so in order to help her save the last face, she would let the assistant say this.

But in fact, she hoped that all this was just her conjecture.

"You're right, Mr. Li asked me to tell you."

The assistant lied, and what he said just now was just his advice to Tao Yaoyao from the perspective of Li Chaozong's friend.

Because he has always been very clear that Li Chaozong has always had Lin Qi in his heart, and Tao Yaoyao's practices will only make Li Chaozong think of the past and feel troubled and troublesome.

With a simple sentence, Tao Yaoyao's tears fell out at once, and her heart hurt so much that she couldn't speak.

The assistant was a little surprised, and felt that those words just now seemed to be a little too cruel to her, so she persuaded her with good words, "It can be seen that you really like Mr. Li, but this is an impossible thing, you give up, don't embarrass each other in the end." ”

Tao Yaoyao didn't speak, and tears kept falling.

At this time, Li Chaozong came back after the phone call and was a little stunned when he saw Tao Yaoyao in tears.

glanced at the assistant, but he didn't expect the assistant to look elsewhere.

"What's wrong with you?"

As soon as the words of concern were spoken, Tao Yaoyao immediately wiped away his tears and left the office with wet clothes, leaving the assistant and Li Chaozong speechless.

……

"Is Mr. Lin here?"

"Yes, Director Tao, but Director Tao, Mr. Lin has an explanation before he comes......"

"Okay."

Before the secretary's words were finished, Tao Ziran hung up the phone and quickly walked to Lin Mu's office with the documents.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw him lying on the couch with a bottle of wine in his hand.

"What's wrong with you? I've been patronizing and getting drunk these days, and I've forgotten that the company still has a lot of things to deal with, right? ”

Tao Ziran angrily threw the document in front of Lin Mu and sat down with his hands in his hands.

Since the last time Lin Mu saw Zhang Xin's back with a man going upstairs, he has become increasingly depressed and drunk all day long.

I didn't even go to work for two days in a row, and I couldn't even get in touch with the phone.

Several large documents of the company needed Lin Mu's signature, and Tao Ziran turned the world upside down before finding him in the bar.

By then, however, he was so drunk that he was unconscious.

Seeing that he came to work today, he didn't expect to be drunk.

Looking at his decadent appearance, the more Tao Ziran thought about it, the more angry he became, and went over and directly took away his wine bottle and threw it in the trash.

"How long are you going to be like this, what is the stimulus that makes you so unacceptable."

Tao Ziran felt that she was going crazy, why should she be haunted by such a man, thinking about it.

Lin Mu didn't answer, just staggered up, ready to go to the trash can to pick up the wine.

"Lin Mu!"

Tao Ziran was furious, pushed him down on the sofa, and pressed the whole person on him, "Do you really plan to get drunk for so long?" There are a lot of things waiting for you to deal with in the company, and I can't handle them alone, can you put everything on hold for the time being, and wait until the company's affairs are over. ”

She knew that his sadness was inseparable from that woman, but she still had to pretend to be generous and sensible, and everything was based on the overall situation.

At this time, I saw Lin Mu's blurry eyes staring at her all the time, and only after half a sound did he slowly say: "Do you say it's better to love someone or be loved by others?" ”

This kind of question coming out of Lin Mu's mouth is really shocking, after all, since Tao Ziran came into contact with him, he has never mentioned anything about feelings.
