Chapter 61: The Search for Freedom
The summary of the first half of the year will be spent in the beautiful cheers, at the end of the meeting, each employee got unexpected benefits, everyone got the most famous cafeteria meal coupons here, and not only personal but also close to the family, the restaurant is the most high-end of the grade here, the price is naturally unaffordable for ordinary people, so for each employee has a chance to have a meal with their families there, the hard preparation and waiting in front of it has long disappeared, and everyone's interest is naturally high after the meeting. Of course, it seems that Yang Yinglin is the only one here, looking sullen.
"I'm only alone here, so I only sent this one, it's not appropriate for me to go by myself, buy another one, it's not very cost-effective, Lin Lin will give it to you." When Yang Yinglin gave the meal coupon to Lin Lin, Lin Lin exclaimed happily: "You really give it to me, wow, Yinglin, you are so angry, you are so good to me, I love you to death." She gave Yang Yinglin a big hug, and Yang Yinglin responded mediocre.
The more Lin Lin looked at it, the more she felt that something was wrong: "Yinglin, what happened to you today, is there anything uncomfortable, or something on your mind, everyone is a colleague and a friend, you say it Maybe we will help you." ”
"Nothing." Yang Yinglin replied casually and was sorting out the things on the table.
"No, Yinglin, you're not going to pack up your things and leave, are you?" Lin Lin became more and more worried.
"Sort of, maybe leave for a while."
"What, you're too sudden, Brother Liu, Yinglin is packing up her things and preparing to leave." Lin Lin asked at the top of her voice, wishing that the whole office would hear it.
"Yinglin, you have to think clearly, it's actually quite good for you to continue to work here, you have already turned regular, and Editor-in-Chief Cao appreciates you a lot, and everyone works together quite harmoniously, is it because today's half-year summary meeting collided with Boss Zhou and was afraid that he would embarrass you, so you chose to leave in advance, I don't think he is like that." Wang Chen said that he couldn't bear it, and Yang Yinglin left for this.
"No, it has nothing to do with him, it's me who has important things to deal with, so I'm going to leave for a while."
"Yinglin, maybe you can think about it, take a period of annual leave to deal with things as a buffer, don't make the decision to quit your job in such a hurry, and leave yourself a little time and leeway." Li Mi, who has always been not very enthusiastic about herself, walked to Yang Yinglin's side, and Brother Liu also agreed after listening: "I can help you apply for a period of paid leave with Editor-in-Chief Cao." ”
After listening to this, Yang Yinglin's heart was still quite warm, she knew that her colleagues in this section took good care of her during the time she came here, and she really thought about her: "Thank you, thank you for your help to me during this time." ”
"Yinglin, is this a parting speech? Don't do that, it's weird and uncomfortable. Lin Lin suddenly became sad.
"Okay, I didn't say that I would resign this time, I will explain the situation to Editor-in-Chief Cao first, and see if I can allow him to take a long enough leave, if he doesn't approve it, he will resign, and it's not that we won't see each other in the future, don't do this."
Yang Yinglin covered the sadness in her heart with a smile, she didn't want to leave, she also wanted to be quiet like this, how good it would be to stay, but she knew that she couldn't, what she would face in the next days was unknown, and there may be less and less time for her own in the future, she couldn't ask for leave every day. "You are a man with no future." How heavy is that sentence, the midnight dream has always been around her ears, she doesn't care on the surface, but during this time she has been trying her best to comfort herself, comfort the fear in her heart.
She can't wait passively like before, she must find an opportunity for herself as soon as possible, Yang Yinglin was afraid that she would hesitate, so she hurriedly went to Editor-in-Chief Cao with a smile and a simple pack-up.
When Yang Yinglin went straight to Editor-in-Chief Cao's office with the packed things, Editor-in-Chief Cao was greeting Zhou Xuran at the door to say goodbye.
looked at Yang Yinglin who rushed over in a hurry with a shocked face, this girl behaved a little abnormally today, in the impression that she was usually quiet and mild-tempered, even when she first came to the magazine, she deliberately made it difficult for this airborne soldier, and she was also very forbearant and silently worked hard, he saw all this, so he gradually changed his attitude towards her, but today's various actions formed a sharp contrast with the appearance of the past, too obvious and unnatural, Editor-in-Chief Cao has always been careful, He observed that the boss of the week was also trying to maintain his calm complexion as usual, but he inadvertently looked at this Yang Yinglin with a slight frown, presumably there must be something wrong between them.
Editor-in-Chief Cao can't help but worry about Yang Yinglin's abnormal contrasting performance, as their industry, people who often write supernatural stories, there are cases where some real cases abound, some people are scared by searching for materials and accidentally bump into unclean things, and even those who are scared by what they wrote, this girl should not have encountered the above situation and become abnormal.
If this is really the case, on the one hand, he will rush to the pity for the young girl in front of him, and on the other hand, he is afraid that he will not be able to explain to the Zhou boss in front of him who arranged for her to come here, although it is not clear what the relationship between these two people is, but Zhou Xuran, who is known for his cold face, is so tolerant of her today, and even behaves mildly and amiably to the staff set up by the magazine, the relationship must be unusual.
"Yinglin, you are in such a hurry, are you looking for us for something important?" Editor-in-Chief Cao couldn't help but glance at Zhou Xuran as he spoke.
"Editor-in-Chief Cao is looking for something for you."
"Oh, what's the matter, what's the difficulty, I think we can still help you solve it."
"Editor-in-Chief Cao, I have something I want to report to you alone." Yang Yinglin's words undoubtedly wanted to withdraw from Zhou Xuran, Editor-in-Chief Cao was a little embarrassed and puzzled for a while, and he couldn't understand what Yang Yinglin needed to avoid Zhou Xuran and tell him alone.
"That's it, you wait for me in my office, and I'll come back after sending Mr. Zhou off."
"Editor-in-Chief Cao, your staff is looking for you to report something, it seems that they are in a hurry, you can send me here, all for work, you don't have to pay attention to these unnecessary pomp."
Yang Yinglin followed Editor-in-Chief Cao to his office and went straight to the topic: "Editor-in-Chief Cao, I want to take a long vacation, starting today, I don't know how long I will be invited, and I don't know if I can come back. ”
"Yang Yinglin, you are too sudden, regarding the process of requesting leave, the company has the company's regulations and systems, and it needs to be approved first." After the editor-in-chief Cao finished speaking, he saw that Yang Yinglin was in a somewhat abnormal state today, this line has experienced many supernatural events, and there are not a few people who collide with evil spirits, if this girl is really like that, in line with the concept of people-oriented: "If you have very urgent and important things to deal with, I can give special approval, if you encounter bad things or difficulties in work and life, don't be embarrassed, as your leader, it is also our job to help employees solve difficulties in life and work." ”
"Editor-in-Chief Cao, thank you for taking care of me and encouraging me, I don't really have anything to do, I just want to find my freedom." Yang Yinglin casually made up a reason, of course, Editor-in-Chief Cao would not be convinced, but Editor-in-Chief Cao did not continue to ask, he pondered for a moment.
"In this way, you can take annual leave first, paid leave during annual leave, this is the benefit of the company's regular employees, as for the end of the annual leave can not come back, I will let human resources first hang this preparation for you, frankly not because of the relationship between you and Mr. Zhou, I have always been a person who looks at the ability not to look at the relationship, you also know, after you come to the company, the progress and growth is obvious, and the writing skills need to continue to improve, but your material is very novel, and the various weird stories you write are also very exciting, so I want to keep you, It's because I think you're something you can build. However, after a certain period of time, the company will formulate a dismissal for you in strict accordance with the regulations. ”
"Thank you, Editor-in-Chief Cao." Yang Yinglin is still very satisfied with this result.
She came out of Editor-in-Chief Cao's office and sent a message to Ji Ran non-stop: "Ji Ran, I have something important to look for you, and I am in a hurry." ”
Yang Yinglin rushed to Ji Ran's entertainment company, didn't she know that "Mr. Ji" was going crazy at this moment, and the rookie models Li Yan and LIDA in the company rarely saw that they were usually not very serious, and they were the bosses of playboys, so serious and angry.
Ji Ran just acquired an entertainment company a stage ago, and their Ji family didn't like Ji Ran to continue to engage in this entertainment industry, Ji Ran stubbornly resisted the pressure of his family and acquired this small-scale entertainment company to operate.
"You two are okay, just don't take the agent in your eyes, and don't take me as the boss in your eyes." LI YAN AND LIDA BOWED THEIR HEADS AND WERE SILENT, KNOWING THAT THEY WERE AT A LOSS.
"LIDA, do you know how hard I have worked to help you pull the resources of a few new idol dramas, you are fortunate to suddenly announce your marriage registration on Weibo this morning, as a married woman, how did you play the unmarried girl in those idol dramas, did you think of the consequences? As a friend, I congratulate you, and as a boss, I tell you, from today onwards, you have to pay the price for your unauthorized decision, and you have been hidden by the company. ”
"Why, can't artists get married if they can't be free? Ji Ran, you are too unkind. I'm going to go to the media to expose what happened to me, and I'm going to terminate the contract. ”
"Don't think about threatening me, it's okay to be exposed, I'm not afraid, it's not a problem to terminate the contract, five years of liquidated damages, the resources of the heroine of 2 TV series and 1 movie for you have been canceled and 4 of the products you endorse have been removed from the shelves, you are also a high-achieving student who transferred to this industry halfway, it is not difficult to calculate this account, you calculate how much the company's losses are, you can make up for these losses, I will let you go immediately, you can do whatever you want."
"I, I can transform into more roles, I'm not too young and I've played enough girls, I can transform into a wider drama." LIDA HEARD THAT THE MOMENTUM OF THE LOSS ABOVE INSTANTLY WEAKENED, AND SAID WEAKLY.
"Don't pretend to be pitiful to me, you can transform, but you have not considered the consequences before doing things, you have brought such a big loss to the company after cutting first, there is not even a little room for turn, a sentence of transformation is passed by one stroke, how can it be possible without paying a price, we still have many new actors under us, just set such an example for them, I think you don't cherish the opportunity, many people are waiting for it." LIDA SHED TEARS AFTER LISTENING TO THE GRIEVANCES.
Li Yan just smiled mockingly, the two of them have been in the same company for many years, and they are not friends but rivals, and they have no mercy at all.
"Li Yan, you still have a smile, can the artist's private life be more restrained, the black pot I carried for you in the hospital last time, this morning this admission of my relationship with me sent me to the front page headlines, thank you for giving me exposure."
"That's not to occupy hot spots, it's commonplace to brush up on scandals, who knows you if there's no hot spot." Li Yan said indifferently.
"I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE BEEN SECRETLY COMPETING WITH LIDA, AND SHE ANNOUNCED HER MARRIAGE, SO YOU TOOK THE INITIATIVE TO HYPE UP THE RELATIONSHIP WITHOUT MY CONSENT."
"Anyway, you don't care, it was all default before, and the front page increased the company's exposure, and besides, isn't this also a hot news that can reduce the LINA marriage news, and I do it for the good of the company." Li Yan knew that there was a stage when she did have an affair with Ji Ran, she thought that the person she could get her hands on suddenly appeared halfway to a fiancée, and she didn't see him have any dealings with his fiancée recently, Li Yan had her own little abacus in addition to secretly competing with LIDA, anyway, Ji Ran had seen the so-called fiancée when she was eating with her, that is, an amateur, Ji Ran didn't seem to like it very much that day, so she took this opportunity to break up, in case she had a chance, in short, it was not a loss, She's not as brainless as LIDA.
In the past, Ji Ran really didn't care, in those once chic years, it was common sense to go on the entertainment page, so his parents strongly opposed him running an entertainment company, but now it is different, he has to take care of Yang Yinglin's feelings, and he can't be deafening at the moment, their ultimate battle is coming, either the evil spirit dies or they die, there is no way out, this morning he actually found that there are paparazzi following him, he doesn't want these things that can't be exposed to be known to everyone, and the impact caused by this is far more exciting than entertainment news.
"Li Yan, this is the last time, I warn you, I am also a person with a fiancée, in recent months, I feel that you need to take a good rest and introspect, stay at home and do not go anywhere, I will let you rest until you can retire."
"You, Ji Ran, you actually treated me like this." Compared with Li Yan's anger, LIDA was surprised and sudden about Ji Ran's fiancée.
"Anyway, it's not very close, the last time she saw us eating, she didn't react at all, and the hospital didn't see her do anything that time, I always feel that there is no relationship between you, she doesn't care, you need this." Li Yan said indignantly.
"It doesn't matter if she cares, what matters is that I care." When Ji Ran finished saying this, LIDA and Li Yan looked surprised and silent.
Of course, this surprise and silence were broken by Yang Yinglin, who rushed to push the door in. LIDA LOOKED AT LI YAN WITH CURIOSITY ON HIS FACE AND LOOKED AT LI YAN WITH SOME PRIDE, LOOKING LIKE HE WAS WATCHING A GOOD SHOW, LI YAN WAS SO FRIGHTENED THAT SHE COULDN'T BE TOO FULL OF WORDS, THIS POSTURE WOULDN'T BE ANGRY HERE.
"Mr. Ji, this Miss Yang claims to be your friend, and she can't stop her." The security guard said with some complaints.
LIDA SAW LI YAN'S EXPRESSION AND GLOATED: "YOU ARE OUR PRESIDENT JI'S FIANCÉE, JUST NOW I said that you, i really have a much better temperament than her." ”
Yang Yinglin was confused, she glanced at the beautiful girl who was uncomfortable next to her, remembered the time she saw her and Ji Ran eating together, and the Qixi Festival when Ji Ran released his own pigeons, and then saw all kinds of news that he went to the hospital, this should be that Li Yan, she turned to look at Ji Ran, it must be this unscrupulous guy, he likes to use the identity of his fiancée as a shield at every turn, and clean up these messes, but now he is not idle to meddle in things, and pulls Ji Ran:" Come with me. ”
Ji Ran paused in place: "I still have something to deal with." ”
"What's important, ours is important, or you and theirs are important." Yang Yinglin said irritablely.
"It's all important, things have to come first, I have to deal with these things."
Before Yang Yinglin arrived, he received a call from Zhou Xuran, Zhou Xuran said that Yang Yinglin would come to him, and let Ji Ran find a way to drag her, lest she come nonsense, Miss Jiang is not something she can afford to provoke, Ji Ran and Zhou Xuran both clearly know that the number of characters is not as good as the two in front of them, these two are primary school students at best, that is a powerful character, Yang Yinglin is not at the level of the same rank compared to her.
Yang Yinglin looked at Ji Ran with a reluctant posture of going with her, and gave an ultimatum: "Ji Ran, you don't want to go with me, Xing Zhao is already waiting for me downstairs, then I will go with him first." After saying this, Li Yan and LIDA were even more surprised, and on the premise of not understanding the real situation, they made up the drama of the triangle relationship.
Li Yan looked at it carefully, and secretly thought to herself that she really underestimated the woman in front of her, and she could actually get involved with Xing Zhao, who is Xing Zhao, he is a person of a higher class than Ji Gongzi, the Ji family is a local tyrant, and Xing Zhao is a wealthy family. LIDA THOUGHT SCAREDLY, IT'S OVER, I WAS STILL THINKING THAT I COULD HAVE SOME HOPE, IF THESE WERE AFFECTED BY LI YAN, THE BOSS WOULD BE DUMPED, AND HE WOULD BE EVEN MORE FINISHED.
"When did you get so close to Xing Zhao?"
"It's not close, it's just taking advantage of each other. I'm not waiting for you, I think my business is more important than your immediate business. After Yang Yinglin finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave, but Ji Ran grabbed her: "I've really convinced you, wait for me to let me speak well in 5 minutes." ”
Yang Yinglin was very satisfied with this result, she glanced at the two stunned people in front of her who could only be seen on TV, and said with a smile: "You guys are much better than TV." She glanced at Li Yan more, Li Yan was a little scared, she unconsciously lowered her head, and she didn't want to attract attention.
"Ji Ran gives you some space, I'll wait for you below, you hurry up and deal with it and come to me." Yang Yinglin turned to leave. Ji Ran could only look at the back of her leaving and sighed, he remembered Zhou Xuran's last words, if you can't stop her, go with her, and report her whereabouts to me at any time, so that we can protect her. Ji Ran sighed secretly, it seemed that Zhou Xuran knew her better than herself.
