I held the phone and didn't answer. I simply shut up and said nothing.
Seeing that I was silent, Liang Sheng spat out a few cold words from his thin lips: "Starting tomorrow, you don't have to go to work."
"Why?" I was a little dissatisfied. "If you doubt that there is anything between He Feimo and me, don't worry. He has always hated me. Fang Ying and the others can testify to this. I was transferred to Fei Ye's first position. God, he told me that as long as I didn't disturb other people, he could do whatever I wanted and wouldn't arrange any work for me. He wouldn't even look at me. The reason why he didn't continue to exclude me was probably because For your sake, there is really nothing between him and me that you should be afraid of."
I am a person who accepts death. I know right from wrong clearly, and I will never bear unfounded charges.
After I said these words, Liang Sheng's originally calm expression became troubled again. He strode over and grabbed my wrist directly, "Don't mention the word 'He Feimo' in front of me from now on!"
"Liang Sheng, can you be more rational?" I became a little irritable and my speech became a little hasty.
"Reasonable? Tell me how to be rational?" Liang Sheng kept an inch away from me. My whole body was almost pressed against his chest, but I couldn't feel a trace of warmth from his body. He tightened his grip on my wrist and said every word: "Continue to act as if nothing happened? Huh?"
"What happened?" I didn't understand. He seemed to be talking about something happening to He Feimo and me. Last time He Feimo and I really did something outrageous and he didn't say a word, but this time we didn't say anything, but he refused to give in.
"It's nothing, just pretend I didn't say anything." Liang Sheng suddenly let go of my hand and took a step back. The expression on his face included disappointment, helplessness, and sadness.
"Let me tell you again, you don't have to report to the company tomorrow. I have asked HR to send you a resignation report." Liang Sheng said.
I felt tears welling up in my eyes for a moment and full of grievances. My dad had been against me for so long, and I still haven't given up. Just because of such a trivial matter, he terminated my contract with just one sentence.
"Liang Sheng, I'm already a contract worker, you can't just resign at your word."
"Two months' salary will be used as liquidated damages, and I'll ask the finance department to give you double that." Liang Sheng turned around and left with no expression on his face.
I collapsed on the carpet and cried for a long time, then wiped my tears and went home. No matter how many grievances I suffered outside, I always put on a seemingly relaxed smile when I came home.
My mother had already prepared dinner, Jiang Duo was also there, and my father sat at the main seat and kept smoking.
I thought he would scold me, but after a long time, he just said to me: "You go to work in your mother's company tomorrow."
An irresistible tone. Before doing this, I would have been furious and fought to the death. But now, I was completely out of mood and nodded calmly: "Oh."
My mother and my father looked at each other, and my mother asked me: "Did you agree?"
"Yeah." I was not interested, so I grabbed the bowl and chopsticks and started eating without wanting to say more.
"This is best." My dad glanced at me, put out his cigarette butt, and started eating.
My mother would at least care about me: "What's wrong with you? Did you have a fight with me?"
In front of my father, she deliberately skipped the word 'Liang Sheng' for fear of angering my father.
I shook my head: "No, I listen to you."
"Uh, that's good." My mother looked at me thoughtfully and put vegetables into my bowl from time to time.
After dinner, my mother wanted to drive Jiang Duo and me back, but I refused. Jiang Duo and I took a taxi. I didn't talk along the way, and Jiang Duo didn't speak either.
It wasn't until she returned to the rental house and Jiang Duo was packing her things that she occasionally said a few words to me, but the content was undoubtedly about what things should be put away and what things she could use.
Jiang Duo doesn't know about my relationship with Liang Sheng, and I don't plan to tell her. If she tells my dad, there will be countless subsequent conflicts.
After washing up, I got into bed and started to sleep. Jiang Duo was still reading with the light on. I stared at the ceiling with my eyes open, and suddenly wanted to say something to Jiang Duo: "Jiang Duo, you will report to Yuan Sheng tomorrow. ,nervous?"
Jiang Duo shook his head in confusion: "Why are you so nervous?"
"Haha." I smiled bitterly, "Yes, why should I be nervous? I was indeed a little nervous when I went to Yuansheng to report on the first day."
"I'm okay, it's just a job for me." Jiang Duo had a calmness that didn't belong to her age. At first, her grandma's family thought she was shy and looked like a little girl. But now it seems , she sees many things more thoroughly than I do.
"Chu Jin is a very good person. With him protecting you, I feel more at ease." He was praising Chu Jin, but what he was thinking about was Liang Sheng.
My mind is full of replaying the scene when Liang Sheng and I first met. It was only half a year ago, but now it feels like a century.
Whenever this feeling of being separated from another world occurs, it means that some subtle changes are taking place in my life.
My mother asked me to report to her office before nine o'clock in the morning. At 8:30, I was still lying on the bed and didn't want to get up. Jiang Duo had already left. I looked at the ceiling and was stunned, thinking that I wish she and I could switch. .
I rolled out of bed and saw a sandwich and a glass of milk on the dining table, and a line of delicate words on a square note paper, "If you get up late, heat it up in the microwave."
Suddenly I discovered that even girls younger than me were so good at taking care of others, while I had always passively waited for others to take care of me.
No matter whether I was with Liu Nanhao before or I am in love with Liang Sheng now, I have never cooked a meal for my boyfriend. This kind of considerate behavior never seems to happen to me.
I haven't drank milk for a long time. I heated the sandwich and milk in the microwave, turned around and went to the bathroom to wash up and put on simple light makeup. When I went out, it was already nine forty.
My mother finally called me and urged me: "Shen Yan, you are late for the first report today? Can you give me some face?"
"Oh, I'm in the car."
Mom's company is located in the south of the city, just opposite to Yuan Sheng. After a twenty-minute taxi ride, it was already past ten o'clock when we arrived at my mother's office.
She scolded me a few times, and then went to a meeting to introduce me to other managers in the company. Of course, she did not introduce me as her daughter, but introduced me to my position. She arranged for me to be the human resources director, which required no special abilities and could quickly adapt to the entire company.
Because at the last annual meeting, many people had met each other, and they all knew that I was my mother’s daughter, so everyone was particularly enthusiastic towards me. As soon as the meeting ended, several people gathered around my office.
The leader is Shi Qian.
Shi Qian held his chin and smiled: "I didn't expect that we would become colleagues."
I smiled and said, "Yeah, I didn't expect that either."
Everyone said a few polite words and then went out one by one. Shi Qian walked to the door and then turned back and whispered: "Seeing that you are not in a good mood, do you not like the position your mother has arranged for you? "
I wrinkled my eyebrows without leaving any trace. I never like people who obviously have a bad relationship but act like we are familiar with each other, so I denied it with a smile: "No."
Shi Qian seemed to have thought of something and said with a smile: "So your boyfriend is Liang Sheng. I thought the name Liang Sheng was so familiar at the time, but later I searched and remembered that he is the boss of Yuansheng Group. It seems that you Very happy."
Whatever he said, I just smiled. After saying a few words, he finally realized that it was boring and finally went out.
I have been sitting in the office in a daze all morning. I have no sense of novelty in this strange environment. Instead, I feel weak and unable to cheer up for anything.
My mother got angry when she saw me looking like I was dying, and stayed in my office for more than ten minutes to give me an ideological education lesson. I wasn't interested in listening, so I just nodded and shook my head until the cell phone on the table rang. I saw it was Xuanxuan's. At the same time, my mother's phone also rang.
I quickly got through and asked directly: "My dear, you finally woke up. How are you?"
"Leave me alone, Yanyan, I'm asking you, what's in your hand?"
"What?" My mother suddenly screamed, so frightened that I didn't even hear what Xuanxuan said. My mother then said: "Which hospital is it? I'll come over now!"
"Yanyan, something happened to your father!" As soon as my mother said these words, my whole brain exploded. I didn't want to listen to what Xuanxuan said anymore, so I pressed the phone and ran to the hospital with my mother.
