Chapter 591: Desperate Life
In order to report the missing work, the old party who was halfway through turned around and turned back. It doesn't matter if he comes back this time, Xu Mao complained about his words, but he heard them all word for word.
At this time, the old man standing by the wall was really angry and anxious. On the one hand, he was very afraid that Xu Mao would suddenly fire him at some point; On the other hand, he felt very humiliated and annoyed by the contemptuous attitude of the other party towards him.
But no matter how uncomfortable he feels, the old party has no choice to fight with reason. Because he has a heavy family responsibility, and at the same time, he doesn't have any capital to argue with Xu Mao.
"That's it...... Keep going......" Old Fang sighed deeply in his heart, then turned around and gradually left in a decadent manner.
Everyone has to go on the road of life. But in front of the old side is a bleak path. What is even more tragic is that he does not even have the authority to stop and rest. I can only move forward without stopping.
Back in the office, Lao Fang reflexively locked the door of the room. He came to his desk and sat down, staring at the wall in front of him with a blank expression.
"Alas! What the hell should I do? I don't know...... I really don't know......" Lao Fang closed his eyes, and his body and mind fell into incomparable depression. At this time, he even wanted to cry a lot to relieve his negative emotions. But he was worried that if the cry was heard by the people outside the door, it would reach Xu Mao's ears again, and then cause more trouble.
This is called the embarrassing situation of not doing anything.
Just when Lao Fang felt a dilemma, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang. After exactly five seconds, the old man mustered up the courage to take out the phone. What was displayed on the screen was an unfamiliar local number, which the old party had planned to hang up. But after thinking about it, he finally chose to pick up the call.
"Hey, who's that?" The old man asked in a lifeless tone.
"Uncle Fang, it's me, Xu Lin."
As soon as he heard this, Lao Fang immediately stood up straight from his chair. His eyes widened, and his tone immediately became vibrant.
"Miss?! Is it really you? ”
Xu Lin smiled and nodded, "It's me." You can't even hear me, do you? ”
The old man exhaled excitedly, and then said with some embarrassment: "How can you not hear it?" It's just that...... It's just that we haven't been in touch for a long time. I was a little excited when you called me so suddenly...... I don't know what to say......"
Lao Fang is right, since the death of the original boss, Lao Fang and Xu Lin have lost their original contact. In fact, in the past, Lao Fang liked Xu Lin very much. He thinks that although Xu Lin is a girl, she is very attentive and hard working in her studies. Based on this alone, Lao Fang felt that she was the best successor to the original boss.
But what happened later shattered all the ideas of the old party. In order to keep his job, he could only resist the feeling of getting in touch with Xu Lin. Because once this kind of behavior is known to Xu Mao, the consequences will be unimaginable for the old party.
"Miss, I really want to say sorry to you!" This is what Lao Fang thinks from the bottom of his heart. He didn't shed tears when he was alone just now, but listening to Xu Lin's familiar voice at this moment, Lao Fang finally couldn't bear it anymore, and two lines of tears fell straight down.
"Uncle Fang, are you alright?" Although Lao Fang had already taken the phone away when he was crying, Xu Lin on the other end of the phone seemed to feel his sadness.
"Oh! Nothing big lady, I ...... I'm fine! In order to maintain a normal state of calling, the old party quickly wiped away the tears and snot as quickly as possible.
"You...... Is it really okay? ”
"It's all right! Miss, if there is anything you need me to help, just say it directly. As long as I can do it, I will do my best! ”
Hearing this, Xu Lin shook her head calmly and said, "Uncle Fang, I don't need you to do anything for me. I just hope that we can meet you in the near future if it is convenient for you. Because I have something very important to explain to you. ”
As soon as he heard this, Lao Fang quickly formed a multiple-choice question in his mind. He wanted to find the best option to respond to Xu Lin's invitation.
"Miss, could you please let me know in advance...... What do you want to tell me when you meet? ”
Xu Lin replied calmly: "I really can't reveal this to you, because the stakes are very high, and any slight mistake may cause irreparable damage." ”
Lao Fang's eyes widened again at this time, as if he had suddenly found the answer to the question in his head.
"I understand, Miss! Well, let's find a place to meet tonight, what do you think? ”
"Okay, that's the restaurant we've been to before. At seven o'clock in the evening, I will be waiting for you there. ”
"No, no, no! I should be waiting for you! The old man said with great emotion: "At seven o'clock in the evening, see you or leave!" ”
Everything was ready, and Lao Fang walked out of the office unhurriedly after ten minutes had passed after the end of work. He did this in order to be as eye-catching as possible, so that no one would notice his anomalous whereabouts.
About that hotel, it used to be a place frequented by the former owner. He sometimes took Xu Lin to the banquet together, and it was there that Lao Fang chatted with this eldest lady for a lot of days.
Time passed, and when the old man came to the door of the hotel again, all the past instantly came to his heart again. Although those past events are still vivid, the death of the original boss has made reality a different thing.
The old man sighed, walked into the hotel, and met Xu Lin very smoothly.
The two sides who haven't seen each other for a long time naturally want to greet each other with emotion.
After his emotions calmed down, Xu Lin wiped his eyes and said to Lao Fang: "When my father was alive, he always said that you were the backbone of the company. In my opinion, it is because of the hard work of seniors like you that excellent companies have grown so quickly. So today, I would like to formally ask you to help me save the company of excellence! ”
Speaking of this, Xu Lin suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to the old man.
"Oops! Miss! What are you doing here?! The old man hurriedly helped Xu Lin up in a panic. He sighed and said with a little entanglement: "Miss, after all, I am old, and I am not as sharp as before in all aspects. I know you can afford me to ask me for help. But I don't know if I still have the ability to carry this flag you gave me! ”
The old party's reaction seemed to be within Xu Lin's expectations, and she took out an envelope from her bag with a calm face and handed it to the other party very solemnly.
"Uncle Fang, if you still can't make up your mind to help me, then please take a look at the content here."
