51. The road to meet is narrow

The atmosphere was deserted, and the three of them were silent with each other, and no one should be the leader.

After a long time, Director Lin pondered and put down the documents, lowered his head and touched his slightly bulging belly, and said lightly: "Actually, when you called this morning, I was thinking that the person who came to negotiate must not be you. ”

Xue Lanlan was slightly stunned and pursed her lips, she didn't expect Director Lin to have such a high evaluation of her.

She gently touched her stomach and continued, "Because you are different from others, you don't speak from the perspective of the company, but from the perspective of being a person, which makes me easily shaken. ”

Xue Lanlan listened to her words, was slightly stunned, and then said: "But shaking is not a bad thing, isn't it, maybe this process will not make you happy, but in terms of the result, at least it will be beneficial to you, after all, this arson matter can be big or small, it can be a private civil dispute, or it can be called to the police to arrest people." ”

"Maybe you're right, I can do it again if those connections are gone, but I have to be cautious about the future of this child." Director Lin took a long breath when she spoke, and then as if she had made up her mind, she lowered her head and signed the document, and after she signed the contract, she directly crossed Jiang Yi and gave it to Xue Lanlan, and she paused: "Thank you." ”

"No thanks, I'...... Didn't help much. Xue Lanlan was actually a little complicated when she said this, indeed, this matter had nothing to do with her, but Director Lin was someone she knew well, and Director Lin had helped her at work.

So for her, she wanted to do something to help Director Lin.

"It's okay, you don't have to be burdened, no one can help me with this kind of thing." Director Lin patted her on the shoulder and motioned for her not to think too much.

Xue Lanlan nodded, Jiang Yi had already moved to the door at this time, he looked at Xue Lanlan and Director Lin, who were still playing out sisterhood in the house, coughed lightly a little impatiently, and then paused: "You two are finished, the contract is in hand, it's time to go back to work, it's work time!" ”

Xue Lanlan glanced at the time, then turned her head to look at Jiang Yi and said, "Director Jiang, it's lunch time, I still have something to say to Director Lin, if you really care, just go first, I won't be late for work in the afternoon!" ”

Jiang Yi heard Xue Lanlan say this, and hurriedly added: "I don't mean that either, I'll go downstairs and wait for you, you can hurry up, I have booked a restaurant to have lunch with you." ”

After Jiang Yi finished speaking, he didn't wait for Xue Lanlan to refuse the meal, so he went downstairs and left.

After Xue Lanlan saw Jiang Yi leave, she took a slight breath and said, "Sister Lin, I'm sorry ......"

"Why are you sorry for taking your boss away just to say this?" Director Lin probably made a choice because of the signing of the contract, and the whole person looked a lot easier.

"No, I don't know why I apologized, but I always feel guilty!" After Xue Lanlan finished speaking very straightforwardly, she continued: "How are you now, what about your family and the other half......

"My family doesn't know about the arson yet, but if they do, they will only blame me, and they can't do anything, and as for him, we've broken up." Xue Lanlan noticed that Director Lin had already shown a little tiredness and helplessness when he said the second half of the sentence.

"How could you break up, what about this child?" Xue Lanlan was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked.

Director Lin lowered his eyebrows and smiled bitterly, touched his stomach and said: "I still want to give birth to a child, I'm old, I always have to have a companion, don't I, and if I don't want it now, it may be difficult to have children in the future, how to say it's for the future, not just for him." ”

Xue Lanlan didn't know how much Director Lin's words were sincere and how much were out of helplessness, but when she heard Director Lin say that it was not for the other half, she felt a little cunning in her heart.

"Okay, don't show this expression, you are still young, you won't go to my dew, the company took my connections, and I am content with the amount of compensation, at least I can watch the child born in a relatively healthy environment, and my family will also help me pay, you don't have to worry about me, I will be fine."

"Hmm." Xue Lanlan nodded, then took out a bank card from her pocket and said to Director Lin: "Sister Lin, this is my little careful, the password is 6 6, there is not much money in it, and it is also a little bit of my heart......

Xue Lanlan's words were directly stopped by Director Lin, Director Lin pulled her with one hand, and stuffed her card back into her hand, Director Lin shook his head and said, "No need, I'm not short of money, okay, that Director Jiang should be in a hurry, you go down quickly!" ”

"But ......" Xue Lanlan is very picky on weekdays, but she is never ambiguous at critical moments. She knew that Director Lin was short of money at this time, and as the saying goes, it was better to send charcoal in the snow than icing on the cake.

In the face of Xue Lanlan's hesitation, Director Lin pushed her slightly, and pushed her out of the door, Director Lin paused and said, "Okay, don't look reluctant anymore, go back, go back and work hard early." ”

Xue Lanlan pursed her lips, and finally answered the "yes" before turning around and leaving the room.

When Xue Lanlan went downstairs, Jiang Yi was smoking in the parking lot, she glanced at the time, walked over, and said to Jiang Yi: "It's not too early, go back!" ”

"This is going back? We haven't eaten yet! Jiang Yi pinched the cigarette butt and watched Xue Lanlan get into the car, he paused and continued: "I ordered a nearby home-cooked restaurant this time. ”

Xue Lanlan pointed to the time on the handplate and said, "But it's already time to go to work!" ”

"If you don't say it, I don't say it, who knows?" Jiang Yi said this, then directly held the steering wheel, and then drove in the direction of the exit, he couldn't help but say: "That restaurant looks very good, you will definitely like it." ”

"......" Xue Lanlan sat in the car, not knowing how to respond to Jiang Yi for a while, she looked down at her mobile phone, changed the topic and asked: "By the way, let me ask you something, how much did our branch lose this time?" ”

"It's not a lot, except for some furniture damage, everything else is fine."

Xue Lanlan remembered that although it looked like a thick fire that day, it was not so serious when he and Qiao Ping left the fire circle, and it seemed to be an area.

"I don't think there were any casualties!" Xue Lanlan paused and asked.

"Yes, there were no casualties, and some important documents were backed up by everyone, so there was nothing wrong." Xue Lanlan listened to Jiang Yi's words and relaxed slightly.

If that's the case, Director Lin should be fine.

"But why are you asking about this all of a sudden?" Jiang Yi seemed to be something, parked the car to the side and said, "Should you ......?"

"What am I?"

"It's nothing, don't you still care about what happened that day?"

What happened that day? Xue Lanlan suddenly remembered Jiang Yi's behavior of not saving herself when she saw death on the day of the fire, she pursed her lips, and simply pretended to be dead and didn't hear it.

When she went to the buffet, she had already made it very clear about it.

Just when Xue Lanlan closed her eyes and recuperated, Jiang Yi directly parked the car to the side, and he said, "Lanlan, we have arrived." ”

Xue Lanlan raised her eyes, sure enough, it was the restaurant, she touched her stomach, she hadn't eaten in the morning, and now it was the time to be hungry, but she didn't want to eat with him, so she was going to go to the company and eat a snack to quench her hunger, but now that Jiang Yi has pulled her into the restaurant, it is more appropriate to get out of the car and eat some food, after all, there is no need to be wronged all the time.

Xue Lanlan thought so, and got out of the car directly.

This time, Jiang Yi's restaurant was a home-cooked restaurant, even if it was past the meal now, there were still many people inside, Xue Lanlan followed Jiang Yi and walked in directly.

"Two people." After Jiang Yi finished speaking, Xue Lanlan saw two impossible acquaintances in the position inside, it was Du Peng and Qiao Ping!

Xue Lanlan was directly stunned, and even wanted to run away inexplicably, and she remembered that in the morning, Du Peng still looked half-dead, and now there is no obstacle to communicate with Qiao Ping.

It's just that although Xue Lan thought like this, she didn't take action to escape, after all, it was a bit too obvious for her to turn around and leave like this, so she could only follow Jiang Yi inside, fortunately, the place where the waiter took them was a little far away from Du Peng,

After Xue Lanlan sat down, she immediately blocked her face with the menu, at this moment, her mind was all attracted by Qiao Ping and Du Peng on the other end, but what made her curious was how Du Peng could be with Qiao Ping?

Qiao Ping didn't know Du Peng, so it was only possible that Du Peng came to find Qiao Ping, but how could Du Peng come to Qiao Ping for no reason, the more he couldn't figure it out, the more Xue Lanlan was curious about their conversation.

Just when Xue Lanlan was thinking, she heard Jiang Yi call her, Jiang Yi obviously saw that something was wrong with Xue Lanlan, and deliberately lowered her voice and said, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"I didn't think much." Xue Lanlan glanced at the menu, and then said, "I want a sizzling tofu and a stir-fried pork with sharp peppers, so I want these." ”

After Xue Lanlan finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Yi.

"Three fresh dishes and two bowls of rice." Jiang Yi put the menu on the river, glanced behind him after ordering, and said, "What are you looking at?" ”

"It's nothing ......" As soon as Xue Lanlan's words fell, she saw Jiang Yi turn his head suddenly, deliberately lowering his head, and bent his back, as if he was a thief with a weak heart and saw someone he shouldn't see.

Xue Lanlan looked around curiously, and then asked, "Director Jiang, what's wrong with you?" ”

"That guy is your friend!" Jiang Yi deliberately lowered his voice when he asked this, he lowered his head, and he wanted to see more and more light.

Xue Lanlan nodded, and couldn't help but think of a very unhappy meeting between Du Peng and Jiang Yi with this, but Jiang Yi was hiding from Du Peng like this? Tightly because the first meeting was unfriendly? Not really......

Xue Lanlan looked at Jiang Yi's reaction, and couldn't help but become curious.

"Your friend has an appointment here, aren't you going to say hello?"

"No, you also said that he made an appointment." Xue Lanlan and Jiang Yi both lowered their heads, especially Xue Lanlan, although she didn't know who Jiang Yi was hiding, she always felt that something was wrong when she looked at his attitude.

"That's right, but isn't it good for everyone to eat at a restaurant without saying hello?" Jiang Yi looked at Xue Lanlan as he spoke, then paused and said, "Why don't we change the restaurant?" ”

As soon as Jiang Yi's words fell, Xue Lanlan saw the waiter coming over with a plate.

"You want sizzling tofu, stir-fried pork with sharp peppers, ground three fresh, and rice." The waiter put the dish on the table and said, "Your meal is ready, please take your time." ”

"......" Xue Lanlan was rarely embarrassed with Jiang Yi, at this time she took the rice, took two bites of food and said, "Forget it, let's eat first!" ”

Jiang Yi didn't respond this time, and directly followed the grilled rice.

This is also the first time that the two of them have eaten so quietly, Xue Lanlan glanced at Qiao Ping and Du Peng not far away while eating, although she couldn't hear the conversation between the two from this angle, but she could see that Qiao Ping's face was not very good-looking.

Indeed, with that robot, no one's face can be good-looking, and ...... Will Du Peng reveal his robotic identity?

Xue Lanlan was a little distracted for a while, and at this time she saw Qiao Ping get up and walk to the bathroom, Xue Lanlan thought that this was an opportunity, and hurriedly got up and said to Jiang Yi: "Director Jiang, you eat first, I think it's better to meet everyone in a restaurant." ”

After speaking, Xue Lanlan didn't care whether her words were slapped in the face or not, and directly rushed to Du Peng's side in three steps and two steps, and he paused: "Why are you here, and what happened to Qiao Ping just now?" ”

"Xue Lanlan, hello." Du Peng was not surprised at Xue Lan's arrival, his expression was as paralyzed as ever.

"You...... All right? Xue Lanlan ignored Du Peng's expression, frowned and threw down a question, she remembered that when she went out in the morning, Du Peng was like a dead phone, and she was still worried.

"It's just a maintenance system upgrade in the morning, don't worry." Du Peng paused and said: "It was Qiao Ping who sent you a text message to make an appointment for dinner, but you haven't replied there, and I can't capture your GPS system, in order to prevent you from releasing pigeons, I came." ”

"......" Xue Lanlan silently flipped out her mobile phone and found that the mobile phone was turned off.

But this also makes sense why these two people are still eating here after leaving the meal, but in this case, how did Du Peng introduce himself?
