"Get engaged."
Seeing that she didn't object, Jiang Nan took out the ring with one hand, and picked up hers with the other hand, which is about to put it on for her.
Yanliang was flustered in Yanliang's heart, she looked down at the ring being put on her finger little by little, and suddenly she took her hand back. Jiang Nan's palms were empty, and he looked at this woman again - she had already clenched her hands into fists and hid them by her side.
He couldn't help frowning.
Seeing the man's furrowed brows and that bottomless gaze, Yan Liang's heart trembled again, and his tone seemed very urgent: "I..."
Jiang Nan paused.
The chill on his face disintegrated bit by bit, which made Yan Liang suddenly not know how to continue. In Liushen Wuzhu, everything is uncertain, the only certainty may be that his eyes are waiting for her answer at this moment.
Yan Liang finally gritted her teeth: "Give me a month."
"..."
"..."
Half a month later, Yanliang ushered in the first snow after she returned to China, which heralded that the whole city would step into a slow winter.
On the first day of heavy snowfall, on Monday, at a regular meeting, Xu's former CFO announced early retirement, and Zhou Cheng was promoted as the new chief financial officer.
Through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the meeting room, you can see the white roof outside. There is a mist left after the snow melts on the glass. The temperature outside is already below zero, but the temperature in the building is still maintained at a constant temperature of 20°C. Jiang Nan personally read the new term After the name of the Chief Financial Officer, Yan Liang couldn't help but look at Zhou Cheng who was diagonally opposite——
Zhou Cheng was wearing a three-piece suit that didn't quite match the snowy weather. It was inevitable that he looked thin, but it didn't hinder the rare spirited expression on his face at this moment.
After the meeting ended, Zhou Cheng got up to accept the congratulations from his colleagues. Yan Liang got up and walked towards Zhou Cheng, just as she was about to say congratulations, she saw Xu Ziqing approaching diagonally, before she came to Zhou Cheng: "Congratulations!"
Zhou Cheng looked back at Xu Ziqing with a hint of caution hidden in his eyes: "Thank you."
With this situation in front of him, Yan Liang paused when he saw it. She thought for a while, then turned around and walked towards the gate without looking back.
Soon Yan Liang came to the elevator room, seeing those people not far away in front of the elevator door, Yan Liang was taken aback for a moment.
Jiang Nan, Secretary Li, and the two managers were all standing there. Secretary Li was the first to notice her, and nodded slightly: "Miss Yan."
As soon as Secretary Li finished speaking, Jiang Nan, who was standing in the front, turned his head.
This is not the first time Yanliang has experienced this kind of scene, but seeing Jiang Nan nodding towards him very politely and alienatedly, Yanliang is still a little uncomfortable.
Yan Liang didn't smile much until she got into the elevator.
Yan Liang forced herself not to cast her eyes on Jiang Nan's area as much as possible. She was looking up at the changing floor numbers on the prompt board when her cell phone vibrated suddenly.
Yanliang took out the phone and looked, "Oh", froze. It's a text message. From——
Jiang Nan was clearly in the same elevator as her.
Yanliang guiltily turned the phone slightly towards her side, then clicked on the text message: "I can't accompany you for lunch at noon, so I added a temporary schedule."
She thought about it, and was about to reply "Oh", but Jiang Nan sent another text message before her.
"He got promoted, you should be happy for him, why are you so unhappy?"
Yan Liang was very surprised.
During the meeting, this man didn't even glance at her. After the meeting, he was the first to leave. When, where and with which eyes did he see her unhappiness
Yanliang touched her face, but couldn't figure it out, so she simply didn't reply, and threw the phone back into her bag.
The elevators arrived at their respective floors one by one. In a blink of an eye, only Jiang Nan, Secretary Li and Yan Liang were left in the elevator room. After reaching the 64th floor, Jiang Nan also wanted to leave. He moved half a step aside to make way for Jiang Nan behind him.
Jiang Nan walked towards the elevator door, and when he brushed past Yanliang, his arms wrapped around her waist from behind.
Yan Liang's eyes widened immediately, and the moment he turned his head to look, it happened to meet his vacant lips. Yan Liang shrank back in fright——
The whole process didn't take more than two seconds, and before Yan Liang could recover, Jiang Nan in front of him smiled slightly, then suppressed any expression, straightened his neckline as if nothing had happened, walked past Yan Liang, and got out of the elevator.
Leaving Yanliang alone, he stared at the elevator door and then closed, then came back to his senses, raised his hand to touch his lips, and laughed.
She had nothing else to do in the morning, so instead of staying in the office, she might as well go to the roof to get some fresh air, but when Yan Liang arrived at the top floor, she found out that the security guard had locked the door to the roof because of the heavy snow.
Yan Liang sat on the steps, her thoughts were confused.
Look at your hand, it's 10:50 in the morning, only one month left... 14 days, 13 hours and 10 minutes.
She asked this man for a month, thinking that it was enough for her to think carefully, but she didn't expect that time passed so quickly, and it was already half a month later.
The countless temptations before were nothing more than wanting this man to give him a sense of security. However, marriage - this is what makes Yan Liang the most insecure.
For half a month, what has she thought about? No, they were devoted to work all the time, and they were so busy with each other that she didn't want to if he didn't ask.
Right now, Yan Liang is sitting on the steps, just about to think about it, when her cell phone rang——
The assistant called: "The approval document for cosmeceuticals has arrived ahead of schedule. The design department has just sent two alternative designs."
Yanliang sighed: "I'll be right back." After saying that, he hung up, patted his cheek and got up.
Yan Liang, who returned to the office after a while, seemed to have returned to the workaholic who had forgotten everything except work: "Where's the design drawing?"
Hou's designer assistant in her office immediately handed over the blueprints to Yanliang, and Yanliang put the thick coat on the sofa while flipping through it: "Is the three-dimensional effect coming out?"
The designer personally handed the mobile hard disk to Yanliang: "It's inside."
"Okay, let's go to the meeting room now." After Yanliang said to the designer, she immediately turned around and walked out of the office, while instructing her assistant who was following them, "Have someone adjust the projector in the meeting room. "
"..."
Just like that, Yanliang continued to work overtime for another week. The whole person is very haggard, but very satisfied - of course, only limited to work.
At one o'clock in the morning, Yanliang put on his coat and scarf and left the company, intending to treat his colleagues who worked overtime together for supper. A group of people went down to the first floor, there was already a colleague's car waiting on the side of the road, Yan Liang was about to file into the car with his colleagues, when he suddenly heard a puzzled "Huh?" from the subordinate behind him.
Yanliang was just about to bend over to get into the car, when he heard the words, he couldn't help but straighten up again, looking back at his subordinates. At this time, the subordinate asked again: "Isn't that Director Zhou?"
Yan Liang was startled, followed the gaze of his subordinates to another parking space not far from them. Zhou Cheng and a group of employees from the financial department were also getting into the car.
Zhou Cheng also spotted them, and quickly walked up to Yan Liang: "You guys just finished working overtime too?"
Yayan's team and colleagues from the finance department decided to have supper together.
Yanliang naturally got into Zhou Cheng's car.
The heating is full, and Yanliang can finally take off the heavy scarf, breathe into the palm of his hand, and finally stop shivering. Zhou Cheng glanced at her through the rear-view mirror: "I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you think you are old by at least how old?"
Yanliang also looked at him, "You are not much better."
"No way, I have been working overtime for three consecutive days."
Chatting like this along the way, the atmosphere should have been very harmonious, but Yan Liang was still a little restless, because Zhou Cheng's cell phone vibrated from time to time, but he never answered it.
The first time I heard the vibration, Yan Liang still didn't understand what was going on, but after the second and third times... Yan Liang finally confirmed that the vibration came from Zhou Cheng's briefcase in the back seat.
Yanliang was quite embarrassed, but finally couldn't hold back, and asked him: "Why didn't you answer?"
As soon as she finished speaking, his phone vibrated again.
Yanliang looked at his expression and saw that he was motionless, so she had to help him take the bag from the back seat and hand it to him. Zhou Cheng obviously hesitated for a moment, and then took out his mobile phone from his bag——
But hang up directly.
Put your phone on silent and put it in your pocket.
Yan Liang frowned involuntarily: "You..."
Zhou Cheng turned on the radio, turned up the volume, and was rarely irritable, forcing Yan Liang to hold back and didn't ask.
The speed of the car also seemed to increase unknowingly. In the silence between the two, there was a sudden "snap" in front of the car.
The car shook violently. Zhou Cheng hurriedly stopped the car.
After the car passed two deep ruts on the road, it finally stopped crookedly.
"What's going on?" Yan Liang asked while lowering the car window and poking her head out to look.
Zhou Cheng has already opened the car door: "I'll go down and have a look."
As soon as the car door was opened, the cold wind poured in, and Yan Liang shrank his neck. Just as he raised the window on his side, Zhou Cheng had already returned: "The road is icy, the snow plow probably didn't level the road, it scratched my tire .”
"That… "
"If you are in the car, don't get out, I can handle it by myself."
As he spoke, he had already half-stretched into the car, turned up the heat carefully for her, and then stood outside the car, closing the door behind him.
There was a lot of fog on the window, Yanliang leaned over, wiped off the moisture from the window on the driver's side with his sleeve, and watched Zhou Cheng busy in the severe cold.
At this moment, Yan Liang felt a flickering light in the driver's seat from the corner of his eye.
As soon as she lowered her head, she saw the mobile phone stuck in the seat——
Zhou Cheng dropped his cell phone on the car. The screen continued to flash brightly. Yan Liang glanced out of the window again, seeing Zhou Cheng picking up the spare tire at the back of the car, she looked down at her phone again.
The image of Zhou Cheng not answering the phone flashed back in his mind, Yan Liang picked up his cell phone hesitantly.
Seventeen missed calls and the last text message were displayed on the screen:
"Zhou Cheng, please, if you don't help me, I'm finished!!"
Sender: Xu Ziqing.
