Guan Xi said that she was going to see him sign the donation form together, but in fact she had other ideas in her mind.
After signing, when the dean wanted to send them out of the office, Guan Xi suddenly turned around, "Dean, I want to trouble you with one thing."
Jiang Suizhou stood still, as if he had expected her to speak.
Dean: "You said."
Guan Xi hesitated: "I want to see the information of an adopted child."
The dean was a little embarrassed: "This... For an adopted child, under normal circumstances, we can't just give other people his information."
"It's not normal." Guan Xi gritted his teeth and said, "It's me, I want to see myself."
The dean was stunned for a moment: "What? You are... "
Guan Xi: "I used to be adopted by my father from here."
…
Half an hour later, Guan Xi walked out of the reference room.
She didn't rush to leave, she only went to the backyard just now, sat on the stone chair beside her, and stared at the children running around in a daze.
More than 20 years ago, her father adopted her from here, and then took her abroad to raise her until she was eight or nine years old...
The dean said that she was very lucky that she was taken away when she was a baby before any thoughts were formed, so she would not have the sensitivity of an orphan.
The dean also said that she was placed directly at the gate of the orphanage, and there was no clue about her biological parents. Because the welfare home was not in better condition than it is now, and there was no camera.
It seems that it was a waste of time...
Guan Xi suddenly felt empty, and for a while he didn't know whether to be happy without a clue, or sad.
"It's a good thing." Jiang Suizhou sat down beside her.
In fact, he already knew this was the result, because when he learned about Guan Xi's life experience, he had asked Zhou Hao to check it out. But he didn't stop Guan Xi from looking at those materials, he knew she definitely wanted to see it with her own eyes.
Guan Xi lowered his eyes and looked at the toe of the shoe: "Yes."
"You can stop worrying about this in the future and concentrate on living in this family now."
Guan Xi snorted softly: "I've been concentrating on my life now."
"Then can we go now?"
Guan Xi didn't move, just asked, "Why did you come with me today?"
"I'm free today."
Guan Xi glanced at him: "Why don't you say that you are worried that I will get out of control when I come here alone."
Jiang Suizhou smiled: "Can you?"
"Why not."
"Okay, then I'm just worried that you will lose control of your emotions alone."
Guan Xi sneered: "neuropathy."
Jiang Suizhou got up, "Let's go."
"thanks."
"..." Jiang Suizhou was stunned and looked back at her.
Guan Xi didn't look at him anymore, got up, moved his neck, and walked to the corridor: "Go back, I want to go to a French restaurant today, you are welcome."
Jiang Suizhou followed her: "What did you just say?"
Guan Xi ignored: "I want to eat foie gras, veal, and Norwegian cod..."
"Will you still say thank you?"
"Suddenly want to eat a lot of things, what do you want to eat?"
"It's refreshing to say thank you."
Guan Xi turned to stare at him, annoyed to death: "Ask, you just had a hallucination, okay?"
Jiang Suizhou raised his eyebrows slightly: "Really?"
"Yes-"
Guan Xi looked back at him as he walked, turned around the corridor, and didn't notice a person walking up to him.
When she was about to collide with someone, fortunately, Jiang Suizhou pulled her!
After Guan Xi stood firm, he looked at the person in front of him in surprise: "Uncle Yang?"
It was Yang Mingzhi, he was not studying the treasures of his auctions, why did he come to the orphanage...
Yang Mingzhi was stunned when he saw Guan Xi and Jiang Suizhou: "Why are you two here?"
"Let's take a look..." Guan Xi said that he didn't care about what he said, but he was embarrassed to look at his past information behind his back, "Then, Uncle Yang, why are you here?"
Before Yang Mingzhi could speak, the orphanage staff behind him smiled and said, "Mr. Yang is a frequent visitor to our hospital. Thanks to Mr. Yang over the years, the conditions of our orphanage have been getting better and better."
Guan Xi was stunned: "Have you been doing charity for this place?"
"Yeah." Yang Mingzhi sighed, "Xixi, I also learned later that this orphanage is also connected to you. So, you are here today..."
Yang Mingzhi didn't finish his words, but Guan Xi knew that he must understand what he was here for.
Guan Xi: "I just came to donate. The children here are very cute."
Yang Ming knew that Guan Xi didn't say it directly, so he didn't ask any more questions, but there was some distress in his eyes: "Understood, are you going back now?"
"Yes, how about you?"
"I still have something to do, you go first, be careful on the road."
"it is good."
A few minutes later, Jiang Suizhou and Guan Xi got into the car and returned.
Guan Xi sat in the co-pilot and said, "Uncle Yang turned out to be the largest donor to the Henghai Children's Welfare Institute. He really has a lot of fate..."
Jiang Suizhou: "Did he know your background before?"
"Although he and Dad are good friends, he only found out about it later. Except for my parents, only my grandparents and grandparents knew about me."
Jiang Suizhou nodded.
Guan Xi found a comfortable position on his side, closed his eyes and fell asleep: "Uncle Yang often does charity work on weekdays, and the Henghai Welfare Institute is in the imperial capital, so it's normal to be helped. But he will definitely see it after he finds out about my affairs. I have gone through my documents, and it is estimated that when I see the information is blank, I can't bear to tell me about it..."
Jiang Suizhou: "I've seen it too."
Guan Xi suddenly opened his eyes: "What?"
Jiang Suizhou said calmly, "Isn't it the right thing to check?"
Guan Xi: "Then why don't you tell me directly, and bring me over to see why."
"Don't you want to see this kind of thing with your own eyes? I said you don't necessarily believe it."
"Who said I don't believe it anymore." Guan Xi looked at him with his head supported, and said quietly, "Mr. Jiang, have some confidence in yourself. Although you have a lot of ghosts, you still have a little trust value for me."
Jiang Suizhou ticked lightly at the corner of his mouth: "Really?"
"Yes~"
**
As Jiang Suizhou said, after she really went to see it with her own eyes, her heart was relieved a lot, and she didn't think about it anymore.
A week later, the company held a meeting.
There are many tourism projects in the company. Guan Xinghao talked about some new projects after listening to the report of his subordinates and finishing the work ppt. One of them is the full-line service planning for European countries' tourism. This project can be said to be the sweet pastry of all the current projects. Although the task is very heavy, if the whole road can be paved, the benefits will be considerable.
"... Guan Xi, this matter is left to you for now." At the end, Guan Xinghao assigned.
Guan Xi has a very complete team. Although she is lazy, she has a lot of creativity in travel, so this kind of project is suitable for her. This should be placed in normal times, and people will definitely not feel anything special about this matter.
But now, Guan Ying appeared in the Guan family.
Originally, they all thought that at today's meeting, Guan Xinghao might hand over the most important project to the newcomer Guan Ying. But it didn't... It seems that they are still very rational and unbiased.
Guan Xi didn't think about it that much. She had also taken over this kind of thing before, so she didn't think there was any problem with Guan Xinghao throwing it to her. After the meeting, she went back to her office.
She was in a good mood for the past two days, thinking that she hadn't eaten with her father for a long time, so she planned to invite him to have dinner with her in the evening.
So, she took the bag and took the elevator upstairs to Guan Xinghao's office.
She used to go to Guan Xinghao's office frequently, and several assistant secretaries outside greeted her without stopping her.
"Mr. Guan, Mrs. is also inside."
Her mother is there too...
Guan Xi nodded: "Okay, I see."
Guan Xinghao's office and the assistant secretary's place were separated by another way. After Guan Xi went in all the way, he walked behind the door. The door was not closed, and just as Guan Xi was about to knock on the door, he heard a suppressed but slightly angry voice coming from inside.
"Did we say before that we should let Yingying have more access to the company's important projects, but now it's better, you didn't give her a single one, and turned around and handed over all the European projects to Xixi, are you biased? so amazing?"
Guan Xi's hand reaching for the door handle froze and stopped.
Guan Xinghao: "It's because the project is important that I give it to Xixi. She has experience. Yingying has just learned some things. How can you let her lead such a big thing."
"You can teach, and no matter how bad it is, you can arrange a completely professional team for Ying Ying like you did with Xixi before."
"Do you think I'm not arranging the team? As you said, you need to be professional, know enough, and be willing to be led by a novice like Ying Ying. It all takes time. What are you worried about?"
Wei Shaomin: "You just have too many excuses. If you can't arrange too many things, you can tell me. It's a big deal and I'll help Yingying arrange it."
"Shaomin! What do you mean by that?!"
"I mean you're too partial." Wei Shaomin said coldly, "I know you like Xixi very much. She's been by my side for so many years, so of course I like her. But you know how much we owe Yingying. , She's back now, so naturally you have to love her more, you can't let her be inferior to Xixi's position, let Xixi always stand in front of her. Guan Xinghao, in the end, your position in the future will be handed over to Yingying. "
"No, where did you go? You have to understand what I mean. It's not that I'm not making arrangements for Guan Ying, but that she doesn't have the ability right now—"
"Really, but Xixi was naughty since she was a child. In order for her to study and occupy a place in the company, you just arranged how many talented people to help her work under her. Why do you take it slow when you arrive at Yingying?" Wei Shaomin gritted his teeth and said, "I think you don't know who is your own daughter."
Guan Xinghao: "Shaomin!"
…
Guan Xi walked straight away, descending from the elevator on the top floor to the underground parking garage.
The elevator door was lit, and she could clearly see her face—no complexion, as if it was blank.
In my mind, the scene just now was played back like a movie, still at 0.5x speed, and every sentence was slow to a certain extent, so that people could easily understand it.
It's actually kind of sudden.
She can understand Wei Shaomin, her own children are blood, and it is understandable that she loves her more, so after such a long time, she is jealous, but never feels unreasonable.
It's just that she thought that she was also very important.
She has been by her side for more than 20 years... For such a long time, there should be many, many feelings, right
She thought that she also regarded her as a daughter, but it turned out... she was actually an outsider.
With a ding sound, the elevator arrived.
Guan Xi came out of it, and instinctively walked to her parking place.
When passing a car, she saw Guan Ying standing beside the car.
Guan Xi's mind was in a mess. At this moment, she didn't want to say hello at all, and went forward without looking back.
**
Guan Ying looked at her back and breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, she hurriedly got into the car and looked at the person in the rearview mirror: "How many times do you need me to say this, I said don't come to me, why don't you always listen to me?"
The man who was hurriedly shoved into the back seat by Guan Ying because Guan Xi came over raised his head, and he looked like the man who was holding her in front of the cafe that day.
"That was Guan Xi just now?"
Guan Ying didn't say a word, "Where do you live now, I'll take you there."
"Cheng Yingying—"
"Fang Zhihong! My name is Guan Ying now!"
The man named Fang Zhihong changed his face and said, "I see..."
Guan Ying had a gloomy face.
Fang Zhihong sat forward and whispered, "Uncles and aunts miss you very much, they just want you to go back...to see you."
Guan Ying turned to look at him, gritted her teeth and said, "You always talk about this... Do you know it's hard for me to be here now, I have a lot of things to do, a lot of things I want to do, can you stop forcing me. "
Fang Zhihong said nervously: "Are they... bad for you? That one named Guan Xi, your sister, is there any embarrassment for you?"
Guan Ying remembered that at the meeting just now, Guan Xinghao gave Guan Xi a big project, but only let her participate in some projects that were neither light nor heavy, and clenched his fists slightly: "Do you think I will have a good life? Guan Xi even if it's just adoption Yes, but my dad always looks to her. Everyone only regards her as the Miss Guan family. She has capital and backing, what do I have
It seems that the mask can be completely taken off in front of a past person who will not put pressure on him at all.
Guan Ying's eyes blushed, she took Fang Zhihong's hand, and coaxed softly, "So you can give me a little more time, do you want to let my mother know now that I am reluctant to part with my adoptive parents, and make her feel cold towards me? I believe you You wouldn't want me to have such a bad life here, would you?"
Fang Zhihong has liked her since he was a child, and has no resistance to her pitiful appearance: "Of course I hope you have a good life."
"So, let it go before you go back, you can go home by yourself first."
Fang Zhihong: "But I'm not at ease. Then, is that Guan Xi difficult to deal with? In this way, I'll help you. Let me stay by your side to help you. I can do anything."
Guan Ying was speechless. With his stubborn brain and naive energy, how could he help.
"She's not easy to deal with, but you can't help me. Don't worry about it, um... I know you're always on my side, don't worry, I'll go back to see them when I'm on my side."
