Chapter 458: Angry
For two days, Lin Jiayi devoted herself to her work, wanting to forget Zuo Hao's indifferent interrogation and accusations against her that day, but no matter how calm she was, she couldn't hide the complicated emotions in her heart.
Approaching the end of work, she picked up her mobile phone and was about to order takeout, when there were two knocks at the door, and then Cai Yang walked in and asked with concern, "Sister Lin still plans to work overtime tonight?" ”
Lin Jiayi nodded, "Hmm" out of a voice.
"There is still plenty of time before the new product launch, and we can execute it as planned." Cai Yang couldn't understand why she was forcing herself in this situation.
Lin Jiayi paused, looked up at her, and said with a smile: "I'm just bored, I don't know what I should do when I get off work." Her tone softened, "Don't worry, I'm measured." ”
Cai Yang calmed down a little when he heard her say this, responded with a smile, and turned to leave.
was interrupted by her like this, and Lin Jiayi had no intention of continuing to work overtime. She pinched her phone and thought about it for a while, and sent a message in the girlfriend group: "Come out for a drink? ”
Jiang Yao: "Okay, I just got off work. ”
Jiang Zilin followed up and replied: "See you in the old place." ”
More than half an hour later, the three met at the Zero Bar.
Before Jiang Zilin could speak, Lin Jiayi ordered a steak and mineral water for her, and then ordered half a dozen beers. As soon as the wine came up, she silently opened a bottle, and drank two glasses herself before she even said the opening remarks.
Jiang Zilin glanced at Jiang Yao silently, and after Lin Jiayi put down the cup, she asked, "What are you stimulated?" ”
"I'm thirsty." Lin Jiayi picked up the beer and refilled the cup.
"That's not right." Jiang Yao looked at her closely, "You are the most elegant person, you can even drink beer as red wine, and you will never dry it in one gulp." Say, what the hell happened to you? "She looks like a detective.
Lin Jiayi glanced at her and said helplessly: "You, you became smart when you should be stupid." She didn't have anything to hide, so without waiting for the two to ask, she took the initiative to confess: "I quarreled with Zuo Hao." ”
"Quarrel?" Jiang Zilin looked at her in surprise.
Jiang Yao also felt very incredible.
Lin Jiayi raised her hand and flicked her ear hair, revealing a beautiful side face and small auricles, "Zuo Hao asked me to take good care of my little front teeth on a business trip, I have been busy with new products for the past few days and neglected her, and I went back a little late from overtime, until she fainted and was seen by Zuo Hao when he came back." ”
"What did he say?" Jiang Zilin asked.
Lin Jiayi smiled, picked up the glass and drank the wine inside, shrugged her shoulders and said, "I probably think that the little incisors are not biological, so I don't care, and the previous likes are all pretended." ”
"It must have been just a spur of the moment." Jiang Zilin said.
Jiang Yao nodded again and again, "Zilin is right. You are so good at the little front teeth, even outsiders can see it, Zuo Hao is not blind, can you not know in your heart? ”
"Of course I do." Lin Jiayi sighed, "I just feel overestimated myself." I didn't think I would blame myself, but on the contrary, she had a hard time these days.
"Don't think about it so much." Jiang Yao reached over and gently pinched her fingers, comforting: "I also quarreled with Zhou Zheng, isn't it normal for couples to quarrel, and they will be reconciled after a few coquettish times." ”
"Spoiled?" Lin Jiayi raised her eyebrows.
Jiang Zilin couldn't seem to imagine the picture of her being coquettish to Zuo Hao, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "You can take the initiative." ”
Lin Jiayi felt that she must have been drinking at this time, so she followed her words and asked, "How can you take the initiative?" ”
"Take the initiative to message him and reach out to him." Jiang Zilin spoke.
Lin Jiayi was silent.
Jiang Zilin's words continued: "If you are reluctant, chase it." ”
Hearing this, Lin Jiayi turned her eyes to look at her, suddenly remembered something, and lost her mind slightly.
After the meal, Lin Jiayi called a substitute driver to send her home. Lying on the bed after taking a shower, Jiang Zilin's words kept ringing in her ears, making her pick up her mobile phone in a daze, click on the screen a few times, and call up Zuo Hao's number.
She stared at it for a moment, opened the text input box as if she had made up her mind, and then edited, "Are the little incisors better?" Are you still mad at me? ”
With a pause in her fingers, she frowned and deleted the last sentence. After more than ten minutes, she finally stopped typing and sent the text message.
Zuo Hao's house.
With a "ding", Zuo Hao's mobile phone suddenly rang.
While wiping his wet hair with a towel, he strode over to the bed, leaning over and picking up his phone. When he saw the sender's name clearly, he looked obviously stunned, stopped what he was doing and clicked on the text message.
"Are the little front teeth better?"
Just this one sentence.
Zuo Hao stared at it for a few seconds, the emotion in his eyes was dim, and then he put the phone on the bedside table and chose to ignore it.
For three consecutive days, Zuo Hao could receive two text messages from Lin Jiayi every day, most of which were asking him for advice about the new company. Without exception, he didn't reply.
There was a knock on the door.
Linda walked in and reminded, "Mr. Zuo, there are still ten minutes to start the meeting." ”
"Got it." Zuo Hao answered without raising his head.
Linda raised her eyebrows strangely, what the hell is going on with the boss these days? Got? Why is it that seven out of ten minutes are spent paying attention to his phone?
"What time is it?" Zuo Hao asked suddenly.
"Ten twenty o'clock." Linda replied with a puzzled face. Didn't the meeting start at half past ten sharp? How could the Boss ask her such a pointless question?
"Let's go." Zuo Hao got up, took his phone and walked out of the office with Linda.
The theme of the meeting was quarterly reporting by departments. The meeting lasted for more than half an hour, and then it was the turn of the minister of the sales department to come to the stage, "Everyone, please see, this is the performance statistics chart of our whole district......" He spoke in an orderly manner, while observing Zuo Hao's reaction on the main seat from time to time.
Zuo Hao stared at the big screen of the projector with a cold expression, there was no emotion in his eyes, and the whole person looked no different from usual, but all the executives present felt a little chill inexplicably, and they were sincerely afraid.
During the whole process of the report, the mood of the sales director was like a roller coaster, with ups and downs, for fear that Zuo Hao would frown a little and stop him. After more than ten minutes of fear, he finally spit out his final closing words: "...... The above is a summary of the work of the sales department this quarter. After saying that, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart at the same time, and when he stepped down, he threw a self-begging look at the minister of the finance department.
The Minister of Finance took the USB flash drive and went to the stage, although his every move maintained his usual elite style, but in fact, he was so scared that he was about to cry - what happened to the boss? Who will save her?
In addition to the executives present, there is also Linda, who is sitting next to Zuo Hao, who has the same doubts. Linda seemed to be taking notes seriously, and the thoughts in her head had already diverged. Who the boss? Could it be related to Miss Lin again?
She pondered for a moment, then raised her hand to interrupt the report of the Minister of Finance, looked at Zuo Hao and said, "Mr. Zuo, it's almost time to get off work at noon, do you need to take a break?" ”
Zuo Hao turned his head to look at her, his cold expression did not change in the slightest, but it made the people present feel that it was even colder in the conference room.
Linda smiled at him under pressure, trying to ignore the executives around her staring at her with a look of seeing a savior.
As time passed, everyone's hearts rose together, waiting for Zuo Hao's answer.
After a long time, he spoke: "No. ”
The executives who had not yet made a work report were ready to cry in an instant.
At this moment, there was a "ding" sound, and an abrupt sound sounded in the conference room.
Someone dares to violate the company's rules and not turn on the mobile phone to mute??
The executives trembled, afraid that the terrifying sound came from their mobile phones, so they began to bow their heads and pull out their mobile phones in unison, and only breathed a sigh of relief after they were sure that it was not their own. But then I wondered, it wasn't them...... Who would that be?
"Ding--"
Again, someone's cell phone rang.
Linda was closest to Zuo Hao, and the first time she could suspect that she had misheard, but when the second voice sounded, Zuo Hao had already taken the phone out of his trouser pocket and checked the information with a cold expression.
She blinked, not daring to speak. Thinking that the mobile phone had to be muted during the meeting or the boss himself requested, I didn't expect that in her lifetime, she would be able to see him slapped in the face by herself...... What's going on with this inexplicably dark feeling?
Thinking of this, she turned her head and found that the other executives were also dumbfounded, and they were directly stupid in their seats.
And something even more fantastical happened.
Zuo Hao suddenly stood up and announced to everyone: "The meeting is adjourned, and it will continue at two o'clock in the afternoon." After speaking, he raised his legs and walked towards the door of the conference room.
Linda was stunned for a moment, then quickly closed her laptop and followed after taking her things.
When the two walked to the door of the president's office, Zuo Hao suddenly stopped, turned to Linda, held the phone in front of her and said, "What is this?" ”
Linda fixed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly: "Fried cold noodles." When she was about to complain about who dared to send such a boring message to the boss, her eyes unconsciously moved up, and finally settled on the sender and did not move.
Oh, it's Miss Lin.
Everything made sense in an instant.
