Chapter 143: The Dust Settles
"Hey, I heard that the manager was removed by Mr. Tang. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]”
"I've heard that yesterday the manager was seen packing up his things and leaving the company."
"What's going on? How did the manager suddenly get removed? ”
"It seems that he bribed and received kickbacks, and Mr. Tang directly removed him, but it is not clear."
"The manager is gone, his position is vacant, do you want to hire outside?"
"I don't know, the headquarters will send someone over directly."
"Maybe, it's none of our business anyway, we just hope the new manager gets along."
Lu Zhanyan didn't take the gossip he heard to heart at all, and he didn't care about it, and as soon as he returned to his seat with a teacup, the internal phone rang.
She entered the data into the computer and picked up the phone with one hand.
"Team Leader Lu, please come to the manager's office."
"Okay, I'll go over right away." Lu Zhanyan replied while thinking, how did this voice sound familiar.
knocked on the door and went in, only to find that it was Tang Renxiu sitting on the senior chair.
Lu Zhanyan then remembered that the familiar voice was his secretary.
"Mr. Tang, are you looking for me?" Lu Zhanyan froze and spoke without humility or arrogance. Tang Renxiu will appear in the company at this time, then there must be something.
"Sit down and talk." Tang Renxiu looked at her and said in a deep voice.
Lu Zhanyan sat down and looked at him calmly.
Tang Renxiu said with a smile, "Your work ability is very good, you have won two cases in a short period of time, and the customers are very satisfied with you." ”
"I just do my best."
"I'm here today because I have something to tell you."
"Mr. Tang, please speak." Lu Zhanyan was very calm, but he didn't know what he was going to say.
"Thuan An's original manager was incompetent, and I have removed him. I want you to be the manager. Tang Renxiu said his decision.
Lu Zhanyan was stunned, and then said after a pause, "Mr. Tang, I just joined the company, and my qualifications are still shallow, so I'm afraid I can't be qualified for the position of manager." ”
"Do you have no faith in me or in yourself?" Tang Renxiu smiled, his eyes narrowed slightly, a kind of aura that stopped the clouds and abyss, which made people dare not force their eyes.
Lu Zhanyan raised his head, his eyes looked directly at him, and the sudden burst of firm momentum made even Tang Renxiu raise his eyebrows slightly.
"Mr. Tang always believes in his own vision, and of course I also believe in my own ability." Lu Zhanyan said decisively.
What do you think you can accomplish in the five continents? Qin Shijin's words on the phone popped up inexplicably in her mind, although she also knew that Tang Renxiu was agitating the law again, but she no longer understood who she was facing if she didn't admit defeat.
"Then don't let me doubt my own vision, and look forward to your future performance." Tang Renxiu smiled, his refreshed eyes, and the fox-like cunning light flashed away.
After being qualified for the position of company manager, due to work contact, Lu Zhanyan often had to go to the headquarters to report or hold meetings, so that daily contact with Tang Renxiu inevitably increased. Only then did she discover that as the person in charge of the Wuzhou Group, Tang Renxiu was decisive in handling official affairs, quick thinking and unique vision, and acted in a downright manner.
Although Lu Zhanyan disagreed with some of his concepts, she had to admit that this man was not as bad as she had thought.
The word can be used to describe the relationship between Lu Zhanyan and Tang Renxiu.
※※※
The days are spent in peace and waves, and there are occasional episodes, such as Shen Yi. After getting in touch with Zia, Shen Yi also knew that she was in Shun'an. A few times, Xu Jing invited her, and she also had a meal or two with Shen Yi, but in private, Lu Zhanyan was not willing to have too much contact with Shen Yi.
Shen Yi has matured a lot and is much more stable, and between conversations, it is no longer the scene of the past.
He didn't dwell on it much, only occasionally, the eyes that looked at her always reminded her of the past.
Those waiting on the verdant campus, but they also feel that time is gone.
Lu Zhanyan also discovered Xu Jing's strange appearance towards Shen Yi.
Perhaps, she should have found out a long time ago.
"Xu Jing, you like Shen Yi." Almost in a positive tone, Lu Zhanyan went to tell this matter.
Her look, her smile, her words, have already revealed her emotions in a smile. Lu Zhanyan is no longer the ignorant and ignorant girl, just those few sporadic gatherings, she also saw clues. In addition, they studied abroad together in Canada, and after being together for so long, it is not surprising that they will have feelings.
However, when did it start to exist?
Lu Zhanyan looked at Xu Jing, and Xu Jing suddenly looked cramped, "You...... What are you talking about? ”
"Okay, don't hide it from me, like Shen Yi, isn't it good? When I was in school, I was an honor student, and now I am the vice president of Zia, a talented person! Lu Zhanyan smiled, more and more affirmative.
Xu Jing said, "How can I have it!" ”
"Hey! Confess leniency and resist strictness, when did you start liking him? Lu Zhanyan began to tease her.
Xu Jing blushed, even on the street at night, she was seen by Lu Zhanyan, "I don't like him!" ”
"Really?"
"Really!"
"Well, do you appreciate him even a bit? A little bit is counted! Lu Zhanyan really hadn't heard of who Xu Jing liked, and Xu Jing was very cautious about feelings.
Xu Jing's pace slowed down, but Lu Zhanyan was still moving forward. After walking a few steps, I realized that she hadn't followed. When she turned around, she saw Xu Jing standing in place.
"What's wrong?" Lu Zhanyan asked.
Xu Jing stood behind her, and around them were the busy cars that were speeding by, constantly driving past them, and those lights shone on their faces, flashing a light and shadow quickly. Lu Zhanyan looked at Xu Jing, and the smile on her face was particularly cold and melancholy.
Xu Jing moved her lips, but said, "We can't do it." ”
This sentence made Lu Zhanyan stunned, and he understood in silence. Shen Yi is not an ordinary person, the only child of a large enterprise, and of course he will be the heir. However, they are just ordinary people, they don't have a good figure and face, no special talent ability, and no family background to support.
Lu Zhanyan stepped back, walked to her side, and gently took her hand.
The two walked silently in the night.
Suddenly, there was a feeling of sympathy.
If you can, you must not want to like someone so far away from you, and even humbly think that it would be nice if he was not so good.
But feelings are never decided by themselves.
So mystical stuff.
Is there a mysterious and incomprehensible force guiding us, two circles intersecting at a certain point, and we meet.
Or, everything is just accidental.
&mda;
Time flies, five months have passed in a blink of an eye.
Lu Zhanyan manages the Shun'an Planning Department under Wuzhou, and gradually succeeds like a fish in water, and with her hard work and good management level, she has won several projects one after another.
The performance increased by five percentage points compared to the same period last year.
This result surprised those who were not optimistic about her at the time.
Tang Renxiu was not surprised, as if he had already expected such a result.
At the company's general meeting, he even praised her in public, which made all the supervisors fall through their glasses.
As everyone knows, Tang Renxiu treats his subordinates extremely harshly. No one has ever been praised in public by him so kindly.
His attitude is not partial, because Lu Zhanyan's achievements are in front of everyone.
Therefore, everyone is also impressed with her.
Later, someone heard Tang Renxiu comment on Lu Zhanyan, he said that this girl has a tenacity that ordinary people don't have, no matter what kind of stage she is given, she can play with ease.
According to that person, when Tang Renxiu said this, he was unabashedly appreciative.
When these words came out, Lu Zhanyan was in Wuzhou Group, which made people look up to two points even more. If there is no one who embarrass her, it will be more stable to do things.
It was the day of the weekly meeting again, and Lu Zhanyan arrived at Wuzhou Group early.
"Manager Lu, good morning."
"Good morning." Lu Zhanyan responded with a smile, and it was Tang Renxiu's secretary who greeted her.
"I heard that Shun'an got another big order, Manager Lu is really capable."
"It's not just me who owes it, but to everyone." Lu Zhanyan said humbly.
The secretary is very friendly, "Manager Lu is always so humble and capable, no wonder Mr. Tang attaches so much importance to you." ”
Lu Zhanyan was praised by others, and he always felt a little uncomfortable, so he simply arrived in charge of various departments.
After the weekly meeting, Tang Renxiu called out to her, "Manager Lu, you come with me." ”
Lu Zhanyan smiled in response and followed him to the office.
"Recently, the benefits of Thuan An have improved rapidly."
"The people in the company are doing their best."
"You're still leading the way." Tang Renxiu praised indifferently, and then asked, "Do you have a party tonight?" ”
Lu Zhanyan raised his eyes, "What does Mr. Tang command?" ”
"Don't be so nervous, as if you're going to war at any moment, just want to treat you to a dinner in the evening." Tang Renxiu said.
"Me and Mr. Tang?" Lu Zhanyan was surprised, the two met in private, which was not very good.
Tang Renxiu took out two tickets for the exhibition from the drawer and said, "Mrs. Qi is very grateful to you for being her guide and specially sending two tickets for the exhibition. If there's nothing going on, let's go and see it, and I'll treat you to a meal by the way. ”
"Mrs. Qi?" Lu Zhanyan did work as a guide for the wife of this big client.
"How?"
Lu Zhanyan said, "Mr. Tang, this is what I should do, in fact, you can bring your female companion there." ”
"Mrs. Qi invited me and you, if I don't take you there, I won't be able to explain." Tang Renxiu's words are very high-sounding, and people can't refuse.
Lu Zhanyan thought about it, and had no choice but to respond, "Okay, see you in the evening." ”
"I'll pick you up after work."
Thinking that this was also a work entertainment, Lu Zhanyan also accepted it calmly, and then rushed back to Shun'an.
※※※
Although Thuan An has been owned by Wuzhou Group, it has not changed its name, and it still continues its previous name.
The secretary who assisted her was very conscientious, and when she returned to the office, she reported to her about today's itinerary, took the instant documents, and left with the documents after she signed them.
Lu Zhanyan took a sip of water, took the newspaper on the side and flipped through it.
His gaze flickered and landed firmly on the headlines on the front page.
The Sun family and the Qin family may have the front page of the good news, occupying an entire page.
The photos of Sun Yingzi and Qin Duyun, the daughters of the Sun family, were clearly printed on it one after another.
is worthy of being a famous daughter, Sun Yingzi's skin in the photo is very translucent, it is a young and vibrant good complexion, clean and fair, with a fresh lip color, with a translucent sweet jelly texture, very sweet and lovely. She is dressed handsomely and casually, with a bit of ease.
As for Qin Duyun, then you don't need to look closely, you have been together for a while.
Lu Zhanyan was a little surprised to read it, only to know that Qin Duyun had already married Sun Yingzi.
During the two years she worked at Zhongzheng, Sun Yingzi studied abroad and only came back recently, so she had never seen or heard anyone talk about it.
It seems that such a marriage news will not be groundless, and it is estimated that the two families have planned it for a long time.
Lu Zhanyan put down the newspaper, and the afterglow swept over Qin Duyun's side face, which was a little similar to Qin Shijin's outline, which still made her stunned for a long time.
Spring has long passed, and summer has arrived.
However, he didn't even have a phone call.
was suddenly irritable, Lu Zhanyan simply put the newspaper in the drawer, out of sight.
When she got off work, Tang Renxiu drove to pick her up.
The two had a brief meal in the restaurant, and then went to the sculpture exhibition invited by Mrs. Qi. Mrs. Qi is a well-known overseas sculptor master, very gentle and intellectual. Seeing them coming, he was very happy, "Mr. Tang, Miss Lu, welcome to come." ”
"Mrs. Qi." Lu Zhanyan greeted her with a smile, and Mrs. Qi hugged her warmly.
Tang Renxiu said, "It is our honor to be invited by you for Mrs. Qi's sculpture exhibition. ”
"That's so kind, please feel free to visit." Mrs. Qi smiled.
The two of them also knew that she was busy, so they didn't bother, and walked to the side to admire.
Lu Zhanyan didn't actually study these things, and he didn't know much about them, but he just silently admired those abstract art works.
Tang Renxiu asked, "Do you have any research on sculpture?" ”
Lu Zhanyan was very calm, shook his head and said softly, "To be honest, I didn't." ”
It's just that what I didn't expect was that Tang Renxiu also said calmly, "I don't have either." ”
Lu Zhanyan turned his head to look at him and smiled in amazement, "That's really miserable, two people who don't understand art." ”
Suddenly, I heard a warm male voice beside me, and the man was speaking in a low voice.
"Look at this work, in the Baroque style, with its intricate ornamentation, it looks magnificent, very religious, and hedonistic. Mrs. Qi's sculptures are very imaginative, very passionate works of art, very elegant and romantic......"
Lu Zhanyan couldn't help but look over, but found that the man who was explaining was Qin Duyun.
Beside Qin Duyun, there was another girl standing.
Lu Zhanyan also recognized her, Ji Lin, the sister of Ji Xiangyang, the manager of Zhongzheng Bao.
Qin Duyun turned his head as he spoke, and at the same time saw Lu Zhanyan and Tang Renxiu behind him.
Lu Zhanyan was the first to speak, "Mr. Dusk, Miss Ji." ”
"You are ......" Ji Linhu said suspiciously, "You are Secretary Lu!" ”
Qin Duyun smiled, "I should call you Manager Lu now." ”
Qin Duyun's gaze swept over Lu Zhanyan, met Tang Renxiu, and said warmly, "It's such a coincidence, Mr. Tang is also there." ”
&mda;
"Mr. Twilight, I'm glad to meet you." Tang Renxiu said.
Lu Zhanyan didn't expect to meet Qin Duyun here, after leaving Zhongzheng, perhaps intentionally wanting to avoid everything related to Qin Shijin, she never had contact with Zhongzheng's people. Sometimes we only meet occasionally at some necessary banquets, but there is little contact with them.
Now that I have met, it is too much of a coincidence.
The two didn't say much, and after taking a look, they continued to visit.
Then Tang Renxiu went outside to answer a phone call, Lu Zhanyan went around in a circle, and met Qin Duyun again.
"Where's Miss Ji?"
"She's gone to the bathroom."
"I didn't know that Twilight was so interested in sculpture." What I just said is not just a matter of saying that no one can have such an opinion.
Qin Duyun smiled, "It's just a little interested." ”
"I saw today's newspaper, Miss Sun is very beautiful, congratulations to Mr. Dui." She didn't need to verify it, believing it was already true.
Qin Duyun's mood was not high, and he only said lightly, "Thank you." ”
As if he didn't want to talk about it anymore, he moved the conversation away, "How are you now?" ”
"It's good."
"You're very hard-working, you're talented, and I'm sure you'll do well wherever you go." Qin Duyun said sincerely.
"Twilight has won the prize."
At this time, Ji Lin came back, and Qin Duyun informed her and greeted her.
After visiting the exhibition, on the way back, Lu Zhanyan did not speak. Just leaning against the car window, I fell asleep like this.
When the car arrived downstairs of the apartment, Tang Renxiu looked sideways and saw her eyes closed, her long narrow eyelashes hanging down, covered with fan-shaped shadows.
A longing rose to his head, and he quietly leaned over her.
A car drove out of the intersection in front of her, and the headlights shone brightly, shining on Lu Zhanyan's face, waking her up.
She opened her worried eyes, but found that Tang Renxiu's handsome face was extremely close. Immediately became hurried, although his expression remained calm, "Mr. Tang? ”
"I just wanted to wake you up, but I didn't expect you to wake up by yourself." Tang Renxiu said, unfastening her seat belt.
Lu Zhanyan was suspicious in his heart, the distance just now was too close......
But she couldn't think about it too much, Lu Zhanyan hurriedly returned to her senses and thanked her, "Mr. Tang, thank you for sending me back." ”
"You're welcome." Tang Renxiu's face was unharmed, and he said lightly.
I only felt a strange sense of tension, which made the natural relationship awkward, Lu Zhanyan didn't know if she was thinking too much, she quickly grabbed her shoulder bag and got out of the car.
Tang Renxiu......
Was it just to kiss her?
No, it shouldn't be! It's just that she thinks too much!
Immediately shook off the unsupposed speculation, Lu Zhanyan opened the door with some annoyance.
She has moved, and now she rents a small one-bedroom apartment, which is relatively close to the company, and the roommate who lived with her before has moved away, and the first to come is a boy, so she feels that it is not convenient to change places. After taking a shower, Lu Zhanyan stood at the window and looked at the night sky.
Qin Duyun is going to marry the Sun family, so Qin Shijin, he should also come back, right?
Lu Zhanyan frowned, and glanced sideways at the mobile phone that she casually threw on the bed. When I picked it up, there was still no phone.
Not a single pass.
In the five months since he left, it has been quiet.
※※※
The marriage of the two families of Sun and Qin, with the repeated reports of newspapers and television every day, there are many rumors from the outside world, today is that the two parties have finalized the wedding date, and tomorrow is that Qin Duyun will go to France to personally choose a wedding dress for Sun Yingzi, and the next day is the gathering of the two families together with the bride-to-be...... The report is constantly being followed, but no one knows what the facts are.
Lu Zhanyan paid attention quietly, but he didn't know whether to bless or not.
Qin Duyun's reaction that day didn't seem to be very happy.
Perhaps, this business marriage is just a decision between the two families, not out of sincerity.
It's just that in a wealthy family, you don't even have the right to choose your own happiness?
Just as everyone was waiting for the grand wedding of a wealthy family, the Qin family broke out another shocking news.
Mr. Qin Shijin, Vice President of Zhongzheng Group, has returned to Hong Kong from Germany and will hold a wedding with Ms. Tong An, Director of Zhongzheng Group.
In a short period of time, the Qin family broke out two marriages.
The media went almost frantically, following the story all day long.
Lu Zhanyan was in the apartment, still holding the instant noodles in his hand, but because of this news, the whole person was shocked.
She stared at the TV with a blank face, and the handsome and indifferent man came out of the airport, surrounded by reporters.
"Mr. Jin, is there any special reason why the Qin family has broken out good news one after another?"
"Mr. Jin, as the eldest son of the Qin family and the elder brother of Mr. Dusk, not long after Mr. Dusk's marriage broke out, you also wanted to get married, was it intentional or unintentional?"
"Mr. Jin, will you two brothers choose to hold a wedding on the same day?"
"Mr. ...... Brocade"
"Mr. ...... Brocade"
The shutter was constantly pressed, and the dazzling magnesium light flashed.
The man remained indifferent, looking almost coldly in the direction of the camera. Without answering any questions, he walked out of the airport under the escort of the security personnel.
Lu Zhanyan picked up the remote control and pressed it, the screen flickered, and immediately turned into a black screen.
He and Tong An are getting married!
They're getting married soon!
In fact, they were originally an unmarried couple, and it was only a matter of time before they got married!
As if the dust had settled, such a definite fact had already been admitted.
Then there was an unrelieved anger that arose, so shocked that he couldn't help himself, and the bowl of noodles in his hand accidentally rolled to the ground because he couldn't bear it. The scorching soup was all spilled on the ground, and it also burned the back of her hand, Lu Zhanyan didn't care about cleaning it up, only felt that the pain seeped into her skin.
Lu Zhanyan took a deep breath, sorted out his emotions, and cleaned up all the spilled soup as if he had nothing to do.
I thought that there would be no emotional fluctuations for his marriage, but a wave of dizziness swirled up, the body seemed to be sucked into a vortex, and the chest was more like a boulder, and even breathing was difficult, a heart was all tangled together, and a fiery burning sensation was surging around.
She knew that she couldn't deceive herself.
She still couldn't be indifferent to him.
But how could she have such a ridiculous obsession.
Admit it, Lu Zhanyan, you are just waiting for him.
