Chapter 17: The Impulsive Self
Zhou Tiancheng's wife shook off my hand vigorously. She said to me with a look on her face, "What are you doing? Be less nosy, it's none of your business. You're going to get out of the way for me right now......"
I looked at her without saying a word, still unmoved.
My indifferent attitude completely angered her. Her shrewd side immediately revealed and shouted at me, "Who are you, let me ask you?" Get the hell out of the way......"
I looked at her expressionlessly and said coldly, "I'm Chen Lan's ex-boyfriend!" ”
As soon as the words came out, the entire conference room fell silent. Everyone looked at me in amazement. Especially Enron, she finally understood why my friend did something to Zhou Tiancheng last time.
Zhou Tiancheng's wife was also startled at first, and then laughed. It was a disdainful laugh. She taunted me, "Ex-boyfriend? You broke up because she cuckolded you, right? ”
I ignored her taunts and stood still.
Seeing that I still didn't move, she continued to sneer, "You are the stupidest man I have ever met." was cuckolded, but he still protected her. People like you are born to be green! ”
I finally got angry and yelled at her, "Shut up!" Let me tell you, although Chen Lan broke up with me. But I'm always there for her whenever she needs to. If someone dares to bully her, I will protect her. At least until she finds the next person who can protect her, I'll keep doing it! ”
The vision of those around you becomes complicated. Perhaps, according to their ideas, a woman who betrays is not worthy of sympathy. But I don't think so, although Chen Lan betrayed me. But I've always regarded her as one of the most important people in my life. After all, the best of her years have been given to me.
The sobs behind me grew louder and louder. Chen Lan couldn't control herself at all, she was already crying bitterly.
Zhou Tiancheng, who was not far away, was looking at me stupidly. He probably didn't expect that I would step up at this time. Looking at Zhou Tiancheng, my anger came up again. I glared at him and scolded him, "Zhou Tiancheng, you have to be a man!" You just deal with your rotten things and protect the woman you love. It's embarrassing to be in my own home, but it's actually thrown here. Are you still a man? ”
Zhou Tiancheng obviously didn't expect me to suddenly get angry at him. His face grew more and more ugly. Maybe he can't do anything about his wife. But for me, it's different.
Zhou Tiancheng ignored me. Maybe in his eyes, I'm a low-level little salesman, and I don't cooperate with him at all.
He had a cold face, turned his head to look at An Ran, and said in a cold tone, "Mr. An, this is the quality of your Aolan employees!" That's how you treat your customers? I don't think there's any need to continue talking about our cooperation......"
When An Ran heard this, he said anxiously, "Mr. Zhou, listen to me......"
But Zhou Tiancheng didn't give An Ran a chance to speak at all. He slammed open the door to the conference room. He walked away. Everyone knows that Zhou Tiancheng suffered from his wife and lost face. He poured all this evil fire out of his stomach on me.
When Zhou Tiancheng's wife saw him gone, she hurriedly chased him out. shouted while chasing, "Zhou Tiancheng, you stop for me." It's not over yet......"
Silence finally returned to the meeting room. But the silence is a little scary. Everyone looked at Enron timidly. A long-prepared planning meeting was just in vain. The reason should have been Zhou Tiancheng's wife, but now that it looks like the finger has been pointed at me.
Chen Lan had stopped crying. Her eyes were red, and she whispered to me, "Lin Ran, I'm sorry!" ”
After speaking, she lowered her head and hurriedly walked out of the conference room. Looking at her back, my heart hurt again. This woman who used to be my most beloved is now so wronged. I don't know if she will regret leaving me so hastily.
Office of the President.
An Ran sat in the boss's chair coldly. Lu Xue and I stood opposite. Lu Xue was a little nervous, and she pursed her lips. Seeing that An Ran never spoke, she cautiously said to An Ran,
"Mr. An, I am to blame for today's events! If I hadn't asked Lin Ran to help in the conference room, things wouldn't have gotten to this point......"
When I saw Lu Xue, I wanted to take all the responsibility. I hurriedly interrupted her, "Mr. An, this matter has nothing to do with Assistant Lu. It's my responsibility......"
An Ran didn't look at Lu Xue either, she asked me directly, "Lin Ran!" You're not new to the workplace anymore! Let me ask you, what kind of behavior is it to insult the company's customers? I don't want to hear about the triangular or four-cornered relationship between you. That's your private business. Don't you understand such a simple truth that you should distinguish between public and private? ”
Enron is right! Zhou Tiancheng and I are a private matter, and we really shouldn't be implicated in the company. But it happened suddenly, and I really didn't think about it at the time.
I can't say anything other than sorry. And An Ran continued, "Lin Ran, do you know the importance of Qingzi Daily Chemical to Aolan? I followed this list personally. It's been almost half a year since I followed. Now it's just a little eyebrow-raising, but it's such a fuss today. All of this has been lost. I admit that Zhou Tiancheng deliberately borrowed your words to get rid of the embarrassment at that time. But you have to understand that if you are not targeting him at that time. He had no chance of getting rid of it. Even if his wife's negotiation today can't take place, we can still pick another time. Not to lose this list. You gave him this opportunity......"
Because of the excitement, An Ran's beautiful cheeks were a little crimson. I admitted all these things she said, and what she said was also very reasonable, I sighed slightly and said to her, "Mr. An, I am indeed to blame for this." I'm willing to take responsibility for this......"
Actually, I'm talking nonsense. With such a big list, I can't afford to take the responsibility at all.
An Ran calmed down. She looked up at me for a moment before she said slowly, "Good! Since you said that you are willing to be responsible. Then I'll give you a chance to be responsible, and from now on, it's up to you to follow ......" I was stunned. Even Lu Xue beside him was stupid. She looked at Enron with an incredulous gaze. They both knew about my relationship with Zhou Tiancheng, but An Ran actually let me follow this list.
And I can't face Zhou Tiancheng at all. I immediately refused, "I'm sorry, Mr. An." I can't take this order......"
An Ran stood up. She looked at me with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said slowly, "Lin Ran! It's work, and there's no reason you can't say no. Also, your mentor, Professor Li, told me. Say you're a person who knows what to do. I don't want Professor Li to look away, and I guess you don't want Professor Li to be disappointed in you......"
I have to admit it. Enron was a master negotiator. She used our previous bet and Professor Li to suppress me. I don't seem to have any other way but to say yes.
