Chapter 53: A Difficult Debt of Human Affection
I haven't seen you for a long time, but Aunt Su is in this situation, she must have encountered difficulties, otherwise she wouldn't have found me so rashly.
I tried to pull her up several times to ask her what had happened, but she just choked and sat on the floor crying.
Finally, when her mood stabilized, she looked at me with difficulty and said: "Xiao En, Su Man is my daughter, I just learned about what happened a few days ago, it was she who beat you unreasonably, and it was I who didn't teach her well that made her so arrogant, but I beg you, can you plead with your boss and let go of my daughter and her uncle's company, if something happens to one of them, I won't be able to live..."
I stared at Aunt Su in surprise and took a deep breath in disbelief.
It wasn't until this time that I realized that Suman was her daughter, and the world was really small.
But Aunt Su's personality is a gentle and generous woman in my impression, how can there be such a bitter and mean daughter.
I couldn't help pinching the corners of my forehead, and said slowly: "I don't know what happened to your daughter, we had some conflicts before, but this matter has passed, I haven't done anything to her, and it won't help you to find me." ”
Aunt Su was stunned when she heard this, and then cried even more in the next second: "I asked Xiaoman to apologize to you, she is too blind, I swear that I will never let her harass you in the future, I just ask you to save her and her company, otherwise she will really go to death..."
As soon as I heard Su Man, I was naturally a little repulsed, so after Aunt Su cried for a while, I said a little impatiently: "How can I say that you only believe it, I haven't done anything to your daughter, and I don't even know about her uncle's company, and they have nothing to do with me, I don't know what happened to you, so I just saw you crying here." Aunt Su, if you need my help for anything, I will definitely help, after all, you were like a mother and daughter to me in those two years, but for Su Man and her uncle, I have no obligation to help. ”
After saying this, Aunt Su cried even more sadly, and sat on the sofa with a loveless look.
I tried to comfort her again, but she insisted on leaving, and could barely stop her.
I gave her my phone number, thinking that maybe I could help her in the future, standing at the door and watching her leave, the unspeakable emotions inexplicably welled up, always feeling that something was going to happen.
……
As a result, in the evening, I had just made dinner, and I was about to take pictures and post on Weibo when my mobile phone rang.
It's an unfamiliar number, Tan Luoxi reminded me, don't pick up unfamiliar numbers at will, maybe some little reporters dug up my number from where to deliberately harass.
But the phone kept ringing, and I couldn't bear it anymore, so I finally picked it up.
"Xiao En, it's me."
The voice was very weak and a little intermittent, but I knew it when I heard the voice, it was Aunt Su who had come to me in the morning.
"Uncle Xiaoman's company has a business relationship with Pan America, but all the contracts have been terminated, not only have they not been compensated, but even the company has to compensate Pan America, all the money of Xiao Man has been invested in the company, and now it is all over, she suffered a stroke and fell unconscious, her uncle said that it was because Xiao Man offended the boss of Pan America, and then I heard that it was because of you, I begged you, you tell the big boss, is it good to raise your noble hand, I really came to beg you when I was desperate, even if it was for the sake of me taking care of you for two years, Just help Xiaoman and her uncle, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, okay? ”
Hearing this, I didn't know how to answer her.
It's really like she said that Pan American suspended all business with Uncle Su Man's company, which should have been approved by Tan Yiyang, but how can I be sure that he will be upset for me again?
Maybe there was something wrong with their company that caused it to stop.
I wanted to refuse, but listening to Aunt Su's tone, I couldn't bear to say the words of refusal.
Just when I hesitated, I heard a loud voice on the phone, and then the phone was forcibly hung up, and there was a "beep" sound.
……
It was already the second half of the night when I saw Aunt Su again, she committed suicide by cutting her wrists, and now she is in the hospital, and the person who called me was his younger brother, saying that Aunt Su kept calling my name.
I was still soft-hearted, so I had to arm myself and then appeared in the hospital, there was only a thin man at the door of the emergency room, who looked about the same age as Aunt Su, and it should be the uncle of Su Man in her mouth.
When the man saw me approaching, he stared at me with scarlet eyes but did not speak.
I didn't know him, so it was a little awkward to stand in front of the door of the emergency room.
I just didn't expect him to take the initiative to talk to me.
"Ms. Li, I am Su Guiqin's younger brother and Su Man's uncle, I know that we have no position to ask you for help, but the company is facing a huge amount of compensation and the risk of bankruptcy, and now my sister committed suicide by cutting her wrists, and my niece was frightened because of this incident, and she was so angry that she had a stroke, and I couldn't help it. Ever since I knew that Su Man had angered Pan America's artist, I began to worry, but I didn't expect Pan Mei to be so ruthless this time, my sister said that she knew the person Xiao Man beats, I didn't believe it at first, until you just came over, I suddenly realized, so please, please, plead with Pan America's Mr. Tan. ”
I looked at the thin man in front of me, with a haggard face, and I couldn't help but feel compassion.
But what position and identity do I have to ask Tan Yiyang?
I felt embarrassed, and I didn't know what to do for a while, but the man in front of me continued: "When my sister went to your house to be a nanny, she put Xiaoman in my house for foster care, Xiaoman was sick, I asked her to come back, but she said that you are also sick, in order to take care of you, she left her daughter, just for this, you stand in her position to help us." ”
yes, I do remember what he said, I had a high fever that year, and my thermometer was close to 40 degrees.
Although she knew that she wanted to leave, my parents were both at work and had no time to go home to take care of me, so she could only endure the pain and take me to the hospital.
Thinking about this, what Suman did to me was really not that bad.
So far, this man has taken out Aunt Su's favor to me, and I really can't say anything if I refuse.
After all, in this society, the most difficult thing to repay is the debt of favors.
What's more, Aunt Su, who still takes good care of me, although she was a nanny back then, I didn't treat her as a nanny at all, and there was even a time when I felt that she was much closer to me than my parents.
I didn't say yes right away, I just said go back and think about it.
It's not perfunctory, but really something to think about.
Tan Yiyang is about to get engaged, and I am looking for him now, and I will inevitably be misunderstood by him and I have no feelings for him.
But when I think about Aunt Su's personal debt, I feel a lot of pressure.
In the dead of night, tossing and turning alone in bed, I finally made a decision for myself to give them a try.
Early the next morning, I took my phone and nervously dialed the phone that I hadn't made in a long time.
It rang for about a few tens of seconds, and no one answered, and just when I thought he would be busy with the engagement and didn't have time to take care of the phone, the call finally connected.
"Eun?" The voice that answered the phone was not much surprised, and some were just faint tones.
As soon as I heard his tone, I was a little worried, but I still stubbornly said: "I have something to do with you, you should be very busy now, can you find some time to talk to me, if it's not convenient, then I'll wait for your convenience to call." ”
"It's rare that you took the initiative to find me, for the first time in all these years." What Tan Yiyang said was direct and clear.
I covered my face on the phone, I felt embarrassed when I thought about it, obviously I insisted on leaving him, but now I took the initiative to come to him for other irrelevant people, Tan Yiyang would definitely think that I couldn't let him go, so I provoked him before I got engaged.
After all, the call has already been made, so I simply don't plan to beat around the bush.
As soon as I wanted to open my mouth to clarify what happened, Tan Yiyang preemptively asked me: "Where are you?" ”
No one knows about the fact that I live in Tan Luoxi's apartment, and I don't want to tell Tan Yiyang.
I was stunned: "I'm at Xu Zhizhou's house." ”
Inside the phone, I heard Tan Yiyang's shallow laughter: "Wait in Luoxi's apartment, I asked Lao Zhou to pick you up." ”
I:......
It turns out that he has always known where I live, Tan Yiyang is really powerful, is it possible that as long as I am in Shanghai, I can be found by him no matter where I am?
When I went downstairs half an hour later, Lao Zhou had been waiting for a long time.
He is still a person who is not good at talking, even if the relationship between me and Tan Yiyang is unpredictable in their eyes now, he will not ask more curiously.
It's just that when I asked him where to take me, he had already parked the car and said respectfully: "Miss Li, just go directly to Mr. Tan's exclusive elevator from this entrance to his office." ”
After saying that, he helped me swipe the access card, then nodded politely at me and drove away.
In seven years, I stepped into the Yuming Group for the second time, and I still remember the first time when I was 18 years old, I couldn't live anymore, and I climbed onto the roof and wanted to jump off the building.
I watched the elevator slowly ascend and felt an indescribable worry in my heart.
Is this a public place, or is it the headquarters of the Yuming Group, let me appear here, isn't he afraid of gossip before the engagement?
In fact, it was me who was too worried, and when the elevator door opened, only his assistant Xu Yuan stood at the door, and the entire floor was empty, and there was no one in it.
But just as Xu Yuan took me to Tan Yiyang's office, a woman walked around the corner not far away.
I subconsciously lowered the brim of my hat and sighed that I was lucky to have a mask when I went out.
"Miss Li, don't worry, that person is Mr. Tan's secretary, she should have sent a document over, don't worry about what she will say."
The secretary understands the rules of the workplace, and when she saw me following Xu Yuan, she didn't ask anything, and she passed me with a curious look, but I seemed to see something called gossip in her eyes, which hurt my little heart beating fast.
When I entered Tan Yiyang's office, he seemed to be signing documents.
Seeing me walk in, he loosened his tie, pointed to the chair across from his desk and asked me to sit down, and then said with a tired face, "Tell me, is that woman or her uncle looking for you?" ”
