47. Sorrow
"Misunderstanding?" Jiang Yi sneered, his eyes fell on Xue Lanlan's face, staring at her like a detective, he said: "What kind of misunderstanding can there be about this kind of thing, when Director Lin came to the company to set fire, he was also photographed by the surveillance, this is ironclad evidence, Lan Lan, I know that you have a good relationship, but you can't talk to Director Lin like this, after all, Director Lin has done such an excessive thing now!" ”
Xue Lanlan listened to Jiang Yi's words, and felt a little disgusted in her heart, to be honest, she knew very well in her heart that Director Lin would not burn down the company for no reason, there must be a lot of uninformed things in this.
Xue Lanlan doesn't like to listen to one-sided definitions, just like she knows that Director Lin has been in the company for ten years, and she has also been her subordinate under Director Lin for a long time.
She has her own opinions and judgments about a person.
Jiang Yi saw that Xue Lanlan didn't respond, so he began to take the initiative to stir up trouble and gossip: "By the way, do you know why Director Lin came to the company to set fire?" ”
The few employees who were questioned, except for the interns, basically worked under Director Lin, and everyone was also a colleague at the beginning, and they had heard more or less about Director Lin's private affairs.
One of the old employees saw that the atmosphere was cold, thought about it, and took the initiative to say, "Is it because of Director Lin's family affairs?" I heard that she got married and quit her job. ”
At this time, Jiang Yi seemed to have found some kind of home field, but a big man chewed on other people's private affairs like an aunt in the vegetable market and said: "Yes, your Director Lin resigned because of marriage, but in fact, she didn't get married, and now it's a mess." ”
"Why, isn't she pregnant?" This sentence was said by Xue Lanlan, she frowned, even though she knew in her heart that she shouldn't interject on this occasion, but looking at Jiang Yide's face, she felt a burst of physical discomfort.
"I heard that she was pregnant unmarried, and she originally wanted to marry someone by virtue of her child, but she didn't expect that because the other party was younger than her, the other party's family did not agree to get married, and the boy also wanted to focus on his career, so he dragged on like this." When Jiang Yi said it, he said with a little smug mockery at the end of his eyes: "As a result, she chose to resign because she was pregnant, and the boy didn't marry her for a long time." ”
Jiang Yi's words were like a hand that lifted the tulle, waking up all her memories at once, Xue Lanlan finally knew why she felt weird when she went to Director Lin's house before, and no one took care of her.
"Director Lin is 30 years old, and it is normal for him to finally conceive a child and want to give birth, after all, it is difficult for women of this age to get pregnant again." It was another female employee who spoke to help her, and it is estimated that everyone is in a woman's relationship, so she knows Director Lin's situation very well.
Imagine a thirty-year-old woman who dated a man younger than herself, and finally the woman became pregnant, and she quit her high-paying career for the sake of her child, but because the man wanted to develop, she said that she didn't want to have a child, and all kinds of shirks?
So who is responsible for Director Lin's loss?
When Xue Lanlan thought of this, she trembled even more, she was a little scared about love and marriage, just like Director Lin, she used to do well as a strong woman, just because she chose the so-called children, love, and family, but she made herself muddy.
Jiang Yi saw that everyone was stuck on the topic of Director Lin, he paused and said: "Don't think so, her pregnancy and work do not conflict, she has been in the company for so many years, and the company will not want her because she is pregnant, but she has to choose to resign and go home to raise the baby, and now she can't take care of herself anymore, and she came to the company to vent her anger, what kind of thing do you say?" ”
Jiang Yi stood in the company's perspective and made his words very clear: "I believe that Director Lin is a weak person, but you can't wantonly damage the company's interests because of this, so what about the company's losses?" ”
"Director Jiang is right, no matter what, poor people must have something to hate." Everyone talked in two sentences, the atmosphere was sullen, and Xue Lanlan lowered her head and didn't say anything.
She always felt that Director Lin's arson was not so simple, so she didn't want to make more remarks.
"Okay, I've also satisfied your hobby, you remember to go to the company tomorrow and don't talk nonsense, when the time comes, the company will hold a meeting on Monday, and I will definitely give you an explanation!" Jiang Yi only remembered to instruct these employees when he said this.
Xue Lanlan rolled her eyes, he finished talking in public, and now he remembered that he couldn't spread rumors? Even if Xue Lanlan complained in her heart, she still nodded with others on her face, and at this time Xue Lanlan found out about one thing, whether it was Director Lin's situation or Director Lin's arson, Josh didn't feel cold, as if she knew it from the beginning.
Xue Lanlan frowned slightly, and didn't say anything more, and this team building didn't end until the afternoon, fortunately, everyone was on vacation and had nothing else to do, so it didn't matter if it was eaten until the afternoon.
After finishing the meal, Xue Lanlan walked home alone, there were shining street lamps along the side of the road, she had been worried about Jiang Yi and Director Lin's matter, and her mind was full of that thing.
But what scared her even more was actually Director Lin's marriage, Xue Lanlan was walking on the road, and she called Director Lin by a ghost, and the phone was answered after ringing twice.
"Hello?" It was Director Lin's weak voice.
Xue Lanlan took a breath, and she paused, "Director Lin, it's me." ”
"I know, Xiao Xue, it's also a fire thing for you to find me!" Director Lin's voice was very gentle, as if she had seen through Xue Lanlan's mind from the beginning, and she paused: "I did the arson. ”
"Why?" Xue Lanlan shook her lips, and asked rhetorically after getting a confirmed answer, she believed that Director Lin was definitely not maliciously retaliating against the company as Jiang Yi said, and she must have some reason for doing so.
"Huh......" Director Lin exhaled a long breath on the other end of the phone, and then she said: "There are many reasons, the marriage is not smooth, the man is unreliable, and the future is hopeless...... But the last straw that broke down in my heart was the company. ”
"What's going on?" Xue Lanlan slowly stopped, and said in a very soft voice, she knew that Director Lin's words had something to say, she paused and said, "Sister Lin, do you want to meet and talk?" ”
The reason why Xue Lanlan asked this was because she knew in her heart that Director Lin must be under a lot of pressure now, so she thought that she would be free at night anyway, and she would care about it from the perspective of a friend.
"No, I just want to talk about it now." Director Lin sighed slightly, and then said, "If you are willing to listen to me, I am very grateful." ”
Xue Lanlan paused for a few seconds, and then said, "Sister Lin, you can talk about it like a friend." Xue Lanlan said, holding the phone in one hand while looking at the nearby convenience store.
"My boyfriend is four years younger than me, and he started online dating." Director Lin's words came slowly, and she said: "Later, I got pregnant, hesitated and struggled, but considering my age, I decided to give birth to a child. ”
Xue Lanlan took the phone into the convenience store, she wandered in the wine area, looking at the rows of exquisitely packaged wine bottles, she remembered what the team members had said today, about Director Lin's unmarried pregnancy.
"You must be wondering what this has to do with my arson company!" Director Lin's tone was very light, and she said lightly: "I actually didn't think about resigning, I wanted to apply for maternity leave." ”
Xue Lanlan knew that the average company employee who got married and had children took maternity leave, and it was not cost-effective to choose to resign at this time.
Although Xue Lanlan knew it in her heart, she didn't doubt it.
"Later, the company allowed me to take maternity leave, but it had to change my position and let me work as a cleaner."
"What?" Xue Lanlan couldn't believe her ears, and she paused: "Let a director of the delivery department change his position to be a cleaning aunt?" ”
Is this a joke on her? Xue Lanlan was a little incredulous.
"Yes, and for ridiculous reasons." Director Lin's voice sounded a little sad on the other end of the phone, and she said: "Just because my salary was high when I was the delivery director, and if I changed to a cleaning staff, the salary was less paid, and I couldn't bear it at that time and chose to resign." ”
If what Director Lin said is true, then the company's style is really disgusting, although Xue Lanlan thought so in her heart, but she didn't know how to comfort the person on the other end of the phone, she paused and said: "I have no source of livelihood after resigning, plus I am pregnant, so I have to rely on my boyfriend, my boyfriend saw that I had no money, and bullied me even more, the day I set the fire, the company came to me to sign an agreement." ”
"They want me to hand over my personal connections, let me hand over my account, my hard work in the past few years, and let me go at my pregnant hand." Director Lin's voice became hysterical in the back.
Xue Lanlan choked in her throat in one breath, feeling so sad that she couldn't do it, she took the phone and took a few bottles of wine from the shelf, and then swiped the code to pay and left the convenience store.
At this time, Director Lin's voice on the other end of the phone came slowly: "I know what you think, I don't think I did the right thing, everything happened, I just thank God for the only luck for me is that there were no casualties that day." ”
Xue Lanlan remembered the thrill of that day, but she didn't scold Director Lin, she understood her suffering.
"Okay, Lan Lan, I thank you for calling me tonight, after I resigned, you were also the only subordinate who came to visit me, don't say anything else, I still hope you have a bright future after that, you are very good, don't say it, I should hang up the phone."
Xue Lanlan listened to Director Lin's voice and fell silent for a while, and when she came back to her senses, Director Lin had already hung up the phone.
Xue Lanlan clenched the phone, looked up at the starry sky, and felt a faint sadness in her heart, she didn't know what Director Lin would face next, but she thought that this might be the last time they would talk on the phone as colleagues!
