Li Ji finally walked to the door of Cui Hao's office.

The door was closed, and no movement could be heard.

Li Ji stopped and stood in front of the door, his heart began to beat, and his face felt hot.

He looked down and thought about it, stood there for a moment, then suddenly gritted his teeth and walked back.

Li Ji walked to the elevator, looked at the orderly arrangement of numbers on the indicator screen, his fingers shook slightly, and he still didn't press it.

He gasped hard, pounded his head with his fist, hesitated, and came back.

"Mr. Li, you are looking for Mr. Cui!"

At this time, Xiao Miao, who was in charge of the comprehensive business in the credit department, walked out of the room next to him with a document.

When she saw Li Ji at a glance, she was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly took two steps forward, and a smile immediately appeared on her face.

"Well, yes, yes." Li Ji nodded hurriedly.

"Mr. Cui was called by President Tao just now." Xiao Miao said.

Li Ji breathed a long sigh of relief: "Okay, I'll come back to him later." ”

After speaking, Li Ji turned around and left in a hurry.

Xiao Miao blinked, staring at Li Ji's back and disappearing at the staircase, before she looked down at the document in her hand and walked into another office.

After lunch, Li Ji leaned on the sofa and took a nap. After squinting for a while, I was woken up by the ringtone of my mobile phone.

"Who? This is! Li Ji was dizzy, his eyes were still a little open, but the anger in his heart was constantly surging, "It's noon, it's not good for people to sleep!" ”

He took the phone angrily, stared at the screen twice, couldn't help but be stunned, and quickly pressed the answer button.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?" Li Ji rubbed his eyes and sat up straight.

"Li Ji, sister-in-law asks you something......" Zhu Hui's voice seemed to be a little different from usual.

"Oh," Li Ji suddenly became nervous, "Sister-in-law, what's the matter?" That's it. ”

"You have to tell your sister-in-law the truth......"

"Huh? Okay, okay," Li Ji became more nervous, and his breathing became heavier, "Sister-in-law, can't you still believe me?" ”

"Well," Zhu Hui responded, "I went to the group this morning and heard from the people in the financing department, you have stopped working now and come to collect loans?" ”

"Well, yes." Li Ji hesitated, but still told the truth.

"Is it that if you can't get this 100 million back, the industry will let you resign?"

"Huh?" Li Ji was stunned, "Sister-in-law, who did you listen to?" ”

"You don't care who I listen to, is there such a thing?"

"Ah, uh-huh,......" Li Ji rolled his eyes and nodded hesitantly, "Yes, there is such a thing." ”

"Then why didn't you tell the old man?"

"I, I told Uncle Wan." Li Ji thought for a moment and replied.

"Did you tell him that the industry told you to resign?"

"This, I didn't say that." Li Ji smiled reluctantly, "It's all in the industry, there's no need to tell Uncle Wan." ”

"Oh, you," Zhu Hui complained, "I heard Zhu Cong say that the real estate company is 100 million, and the old man won't let him repay the loan......"

"Oh, Mr. Zhu also told me about this," Li Ji relieved, "The group wants to redeem the bonds, and it needs money, so use it first." ”

"And what are you going to do here?" Zhu Hui was a little anxious, "If you don't tell the old man, he still thinks it's okay to repay the loan later." ”

"No, it's okay," Li Ji's throat moved a few times, as if it was blocked by something, "I'm here to talk about it......"

"Really?" Zhu Hui was obviously a little unconvinced, "If you're embarrassed, my sister-in-law told the old man to go." How could he leave it alone for such a big deal! ”

"Sister-in-law, don't!" Li Ji panicked, "Listen to me, Uncle Wan didn't care, he said that he would repay the loan first when the funds arrived." ”

"Then why did the group take this money again?"

"Oh, yes, that's the case....." Li Ji's mind was spinning rapidly, his eyes kept blinking, trying to make his tone seem casual, "What you said, Uncle Wan told me a long time ago, and I also told the line." The bank agreed that the loan could be repaid at a later date......"

"Li Ji, you didn't lie to your sister-in-law, did you?"

"Sister-in-law, can I still lie to you about this!" Li Ji raised his voice, "After all, I'm still the vice president of the credit department, can't I do this?" ”

Slap the swollen face and fill the fat man, naked bullshit.

"Oh, then my sister-in-law will be relieved." On the other end of the phone, Zhu Hui laughed softly, and her tone became calm, "Look at me, I've been fooling around for a long time, hehe." ”

"Where, where," Li Ji hurriedly replied, "Sister-in-law, I really thank you." ”

"Sister-in-law didn't help much, why are you thanking me?" Zhu Hui smiled lightly, "It's okay, I'll go to the street in a while, so I won't tell you." ”

"Sister-in-law, how are you doing?" Li Ji hurriedly asked.

"What's wrong," Zhu Hui said very easily, "Wasn't my sister-in-law like this before, when did Wancheng care about ......me?"

The phone hung up, and a beep busy sound echoed in my ears.

Li Ji put down his mobile phone, was stunned on the sofa for a while, picked up the teacup on the coffee table, blew the tea leaves floating on the mouth of the cup, and drank a few big sips.

He slammed the teacup on the coffee table, and the "crackling" sound startled him.

Li Ji picked up the rag, wiped the water sprinkled on the coffee table, and then threw the rag to the side and set up Erlang's legs.

At this moment, he was completely sleepy. But my head is still a little confused, and I am always a little uneasy when I sit on the sofa. I just felt that my mind was chaotic, as if there were countless villains fighting, as if they were thinking about everything, and as if they were not thinking about anything.

Finally, it was time to go to work in the afternoon.

Li Ji walked back and forth in the room, pacing several laps, sighing for a long time. He walked to the balcony again, leaned on the railing, and stared blankly at the noisy street outside.

The midday sun was faint, not as hot as it was in the middle of summer.

On the road, pedestrians, vehicles, coming and going, shuttling non-stop.

I couldn't see any difference this afternoon.

The weather was fine.

In the clear sky, a few slender white clouds floated lazily, like feathers, like that careless painter, who casually scribbled them with a paintbrush.

The days were calm as usual. Everyone seems to be happy, or at least happier than Li Ji.

Li Ji suddenly felt reluctant.

Through the glass window, Li Ji seemed to be able to hear the faint sound of the city. That familiar feeling was warm and close, which made him feel calm, stable and down-to-earth.

But now, the loan had tightened him in a tight grip, like an invisible, strong rope that dragged him into the depths of darkness.

Li Ji felt panicked.

There was darkness all around, and he was standing alone in the boundless wilderness.

He was curious to know what was behind this. However, his current situation, Wan Cheng's death, seems to make all this difficult to prove.

For the first time, Li Ji felt his own insignificance and powerlessness. The ambitions and ambitions of the past have all vanished at this moment.

What deputy general manager, what system, what rules, in front of the position and power, are hardly worth mentioning.

He was a little desperate and despaired.

Li Ji looked at it, and at the place where the gray roof of the city met the blue sky, there was an eagle spreading its wings and quietly hovering in the air.

It was so comfortable, so calm, like a king patrolling his territory.

"I am not afraid of clouds to cover my eyes, only because I am at the top."

Li Ji suddenly jumped out of this poem in his mind.

He thought quietly.

Countless thoughts, like thousands of moths, are flying around in my mind, vast like a torrential rain, and as numerous as falling flowers.

The swaying weeds, the sunset is slowly setting.

On the mountain road, the boy running with a schoolbag on his back;

On campus, the young man who is still childish and dreams of guiding the country;

Behind the counter, the new bank employee who was full of spirit and infinite longing......

Distant and disorienting.

"Do you remember the dream of your youth, like a flower that never withers....."
