Chen Ran

I sat in my car and watched Yue'er get into Wang Hao's car, now that she is off work, where are they going?

Or maybe it's just a ride? But it's not a taste in my heart! When did this kid Wang Hao get so close to Yue'er?!

I suddenly remembered the situation when Wang Hao recommended Yue to me a few weeks ago.

As soon as I arrived at the office that morning, Wang Hao knocked on my door with a smile on his face. According to my understanding of him for many years, once this kid takes the initiative to come to the door and nod his head, he must have a request from someone, not to mention that I am not in charge of the administrative department, I don't know what kind of important thing can make him squat here in person early in the morning.

"Come in, what gust of wind blew our chief manager through the door today?" I saw him poking his head out, looking up, and smiling.

"Mr. Chen is good, Mr. Chen is good, look at what you say, don't I just serve the bosses, of course, I have to take the initiative to come to the door at all times."

"Why don't you go out to a meeting with Mr. Guo today, why are you coming here?"

"Go, of course you have to go, isn't there still an hour!" Wang Hao said and handed over a cigarette, and lit it for me, "I'll go to Mr. Chen to sit here first, and see if the bosses have any other work instructions, I am now in this brain, I estimate that I have eaten too much, it is getting worse and worse, and I am very forgetful, so I have to remind myself to be awake at all times, and don't forget the things that the bosses have explained." Wang Hao smiled while rubbing his hands.

"Nothing to do, either treachery or theft," I took a cigarette and smiled and lit him, "Don't talk nonsense, it's almost the same to deal with our difficult customers, I don't want to eat this." Say, what's the matter! "This kid is used to using his tricks, and I have learned many times.

"It's still Mr. Chen who knows me best," Wang Hao laughed and scratched his head, "Isn't this just for the job of competing for that position, we have a position as deputy manager in our department." ”

"What? Do you have a favorite candidate? Want to go through the back door? I asked with a smile as I dusted off my cigarette ash in my hand.

"Oh, Mr. Chen, don't you know me yet? I'm just a little oily, and when it comes to personal ethics, it's a breeze on both sleeves, how dare I have any thoughts of going through the back door! Wang Hao glared and immediately grabbed Bai Dao, "I dare to pat my chest to guarantee this!" ”

I snorted softly, "Then there is something to say, and there are so many detours for me!" ”。

"Hehe, that's the case," Wang Hao licked his lips and said thoughtfully, "The position of this deputy manager, Mr. Guo has always wanted to equip me with a deputy who can write, and I think so myself." Mr. Chen, you know, I'm a little bit of a mouthful, we can't do the things of dancing and writing, and the work of the administrative department always feels like a lack of legs, but right now there is a good seedling, and I have the heart to carry it, but it's just ......," he muttered, "It's just that she has shallow qualifications and may not meet the company's competitive qualifications, but this person is indeed a talent, I thought, talk to the bosses, and see if I can make an exception for her?" ”

After Wang Hao finished speaking cautiously, I looked at his expression, and I was a little nervous while being nervous, pecking at what he just said, "Writer, with little qualifications", and I thought about the people in the administrative department a little, and I understood that this person was not far from Yue'er. frowned, this Wang Hao, how could he recommend Yue'er? Didn't you say that he had a lot of relationship with Zhang Xiaoqi? And Zhang Xiaoqi is obviously more dominant than Yue'er in the adaptation of various conditions, if he really recommends Yue'er, what should Zhang Xiaoqi do?

Thinking of this, I snuffed out my cigarette butt and stared at Wang Hao, "Who do you want to recommend?" ”

"Hmm......" Wang Hao hesitated, "Li Yue'er"

Sure enough, it was her! My cheeks twitched unconsciously, as if a few wisps of ominous premonition rose, and after half a sound, I calmly asked, "Why her?" ”

Seems to have been prepared for my question, Wang Hao rubbed his hands and looked at me, "Well, Mr. Chen, I know that Li Yue'er is still very young, but she is really good, huh...... The writing is good, and the person is also very good, cough, cough," Wang Hao cleared his throat, as if he was a little embarrassed, "Although this little girl is young, she has a very high understanding, and she is quiet and does not say much, she is polite to everyone, and her colleagues in the department also think she is not bad." Therefore, I also intend to cultivate her. Wang Hao's eyes seemed to be a little confused when he said this, and he was like two people with his usual hippie smile.

I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart, and forced myself to calm down: "What you said has anything to do with whether she is qualified for the position of deputy manager?" ”

"This ......" Wang Hao seemed to be dragged back by my question, stunned for a moment, "Ah, her biggest advantage is that she has a strong writing ability, which is what the Administration Department needs most at present; Although she may be lacking in management ability, I believe that with her understanding, as long as she is given the opportunity, she will definitely become an excellent middle-level cadre. ”

I was noncommittal. Objectively speaking, I agree with what Wang Hao said, even if it is not because of the private brother-sister relationship, I also think that Yue'er is a dark horse with great potential at work, and over time, she will be able to spread her wings and take off like a heavenly horse. It's just that right now, is this position of assistant manager really a good opportunity for her? She must be the youngest employee in the administration department, right? If she does it in one step, what will other employees, especially Zhang Xiaoqi and the like, think? What if they don't support her work? And, from Wang Hao's recommendation, I always feel that it is not as simple as he said, he mentioned Yue's trance when he was a child, his eagerness to fight for Yue'er's position, and the usual meticulousness and thoughtfulness are far away, this is not his style, as Kairan's administrative manager, he rarely has such a single line, coordinating left and right, balancing interests is his best strength, but this time it is unusual, can't help but make people unbelievable, he shouldn't have any other thoughts about Yue'er, right?

As soon as my eyelids were raised, I sat up straight and frightened Wang Hao. I didn't care about it a lot, and Zhengse said, "Okay, I understand what you said, Li Yue'er, this little girl, I know." You can find an opportunity to report her situation to Mr. Guo. In addition, you should also consider her own opinions and those of other colleagues in the department, and wait until you officially receive the application form. Then he sent him out.

After that, things were as expected, Yue'er really had her concerns, and Wang Hao's idea fell through, and Yue'er finally gave up the position of deputy manager after weighing it again and again. When I learned of her decision, I felt a little happy and relieved.

But at this moment, seeing Yue'er smiling at Wang Hao like a flower and the latter looking as cold as frost, my anger didn't hit one place, how could this be? Wang Hao, why is he?

Why did he do that to Yue'er? Could it be that because he recommended Yue'er, it seems that he gave her a great favor? And Yue'er, why do you have to smile like that to Wang Hao, even if you thank him for his kindness, is it necessary to be so humble, you know, Yue'er has almost never smiled like that to me!

This really annoys me!

And where are they going now? Should I give me a call and ask? I'd love to call and ask. But I'm just Yue'er's eldest brother, am I, what qualifications do I have to tell her whereabouts? What's more, I'm afraid, what should I do if Yue'er hides the fact that she and Wang Hao are together at the moment from me? I can't imagine it! Rather than this, it is better to ignore it and find an excuse to comfort yourself.

The garage was dimly lit, and the occasional car drove by, and the harsh light beams rolled up the dull air and the choking smell of gasoline, which made people extremely uncomfortable. I took out my mobile phone irritably, turned out Yue'er's name, and rubbed it for a long time, but I still didn't call.

Alas!

I sighed heavily, a wry smile on the corner of my mouth, no qualifications, I am not qualified, this fact makes me feel helpless and sad.

The phone rang suddenly at this time, I couldn't help but feel a shock in my heart, as if there was a ray of hope flashing in my mind, but I saw the name of "Xiaojuan" suddenly beating on the dazzling screen, and there was endless loss in my heart, I closed my eyes and stabilized my mind for a few seconds, and picked up the phone.

"Hey, Xiaojuan"

"Chen Ran, when can you leave during the Spring Festival? Mom and Dad want us to go back to N City for the New Year"

I understood that the "parents" in Xiaojuan's mouth naturally did not refer to my parents, so I thought about it and said: "Okay, it should be a few days in advance, and I haven't been back to N City for a long time, it's time to go back to see my parents." ”

"Then will your parents go back with us?"

"It should be, otherwise where can they go?" I muttered, after so many years of marriage, Xiaojuan still calls my parents "your parents", alas, forget it, I'm too lazy to bother with her.

"Okay, then you remember to book your ticket early, the Spring Festival ticket is very tight. I'll just order me and your parents."

I promised to hang up the phone, but I was a little confused. Since the reunion with Xiaojuan in City C on New Year's Day, although our relationship has eased, it is difficult to return to the way it used to be. Perhaps she and I both understand that after so many years of husband and wife, the marriage has already entered a state of exhaustion. And now the days of separation between the two places have made the possible interaction between each other even more prolonged, and this form of marriage that is more important than substance will also bring me a kind of frustration and indifference from time to time, and over time, I have begun to get used to this frustration and indifference again. This is not the state of marriage I expected, but why am I not in the mood to change it now?

I took out a cigarette and lit it, and the faint light of the cigarette butt flickered on and off in the dark garage, just like my mixed mood at the moment. Looking at Wang Hao's parking space not far away, the traces left by the wheels driving out were slamming at me on the ground, and a contemptible thought popped up in my head, can I use this as an excuse to call Yue'er?

She's an employee of the administration department, isn't she? The administration department was originally for the boss to take care of these daily affairs, didn't it? So it's normal for me to ask her to book me a ticket, isn't it?

At least, I can let me know where she is now, and whether she is still with Wang Hao.

Heh, he~

Chen Ran, are you crazy?

What are you thinking? Can you do that? Let Yue'er help you book a ticket for you and your wife to "return home"? Is there anything more shameless than you?

I can't wait to punch myself.

Taking a puff of my cigarette, I felt like I was about to collapse to a limit.

I can't think about it anymore, I said to myself in my heart. Yue'er is my little sister, she has her freedom, didn't she say it at the beginning, no matter what path she chooses, what kind of person she chooses, I should support and bless as a big brother, this is the duty of the big brother, you know?

Yes, the duty of the eldest brother, the duty of the eldest brother, but it is also the sorrow of the eldest brother......

I shook my head and smiled wryly, turned around and threw away the cigarette butt, started the car, and kicked it out like a drowning man desperate for the fresh air outside.
