Yanliang has never tried to be so nervous in her life.
Her eyes refused to miss any changes in the expression of the man in front of her, only to see that his frowning brows did not loosen at all, but even his eyes were stained with an indescribable dark color.
Yanliang was really worried that he would suddenly throw out a sentence: "Why did you suddenly change your mind?" If so, she would really be speechless.
This man's emotions are so complicated that Yanliang can't understand at all, are you nervous? looking forward to? in doubt? In the choice? Yanliang can't tell the difference.
Both of them were silent for a long time, Yan Liang was like a prisoner who was about to face the final judgment, as if his hair was stiff from the tip of his toes, and even his breathing became cautious involuntarily. Finally, Jiang Nan stretched his eyebrows and smiled: "Are you... proposing to me?"
"..."
"..."
"Then..." Yanliang took a deep breath to adjust her heartbeat, "...Mr. Jiang, would you like it?"
"..."
"..."
"certainly."
His light and clever two words made Yanliang feel as if he had received amnesty, and the whole person was able to relax, but on the surface, Yanliang tried to keep calm, and only slightly raised a sweet smile, for fear of being sniffed by this man. What clues.
This marriage began with her calculation of inheritance, if this man knew the truth of this——
Yanliang didn't have the courage to continue thinking.
Both of them put on their coats and got out of the car. Before the car door was closed, their cool hair was blown to pieces by the strong wind. She flicked her hair and looked up at the day—the cold winter weather and the dark clouds seemed to indicate that today is not a day. auspicious day.
Yanliang turned her head to look at Jiang Nan outside the car door on the other side. This man had a tall and straight figure that could not be shaken by the wind. All uncertainties were disintegrated in an instant. Yanliang let out a breath and walked towards the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
It was the lunch break time, and the marriage registration office was not accepting business for the time being. Yanliang and Jiang Nan stood in the corridor, taking advantage of the waiting time, each called to ask for the required documents to be delivered.
It was Secretary Li who delivered Jiang Nan's things. Even though Secretary Li felt that the situation was ridiculous, he hid his emotions well behind a good professional attitude: "Congratulations."
Aunt Liang, who brought the things for Yanliang, had her surprise written all over her face, and handed over the account book to Yanliang. Before Yanliang took it, she suddenly withdrew her hand, looked back at Jiang Nan who was waiting beside her very uncertainly, and then Looking back at Yan Liang: "Second miss... you... wife, she doesn't know..."
Yanliang is very determined: "I will tell her myself."
"..."
"..."
After all, Aunt Liang couldn't resist, so she handed over the household registration book to Yanliang.
When it was time for work, the two of them lined up like other couples, filled out forms, took photos, fingerprinted, signed, and stamped. After not counting cumbersome procedures, they got married, but Yanliang suddenly felt that all of this was a bit unreal.
Jiang Nan stretched out his arms to hug her, and her shoulders shrank in shock. Her reaction didn't look like she was happy. When she held her hand, she found that she was covered with cold sweat. Jiang Nan was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
"It feels... unreal."
Jiang Nan shook his head speechlessly, and with a broken smile, he raised Yan Liang's chin who had lowered his head three times to check the marriage certificate, and pecked and kissed fiercely in front of everyone.
Several other couples who were still in line looked at Jiang Nan and Yan Liang, and they reacted differently. Some looked at their other half and smiled empathetically; hold...
After the brief kiss ended, Jiang Nan didn't let go of her, and still hugged her, his chin pressed against her forehead, and soft voices came into her ears: "Does it feel real now?"
At least his chest is really warm. Yan Liang was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief——
She broke away from Jiang Nan's arms slightly, and stretched out her hand to him in a way she was used to: "Happy wedding."
The woman's smile and posture seemed to say "happy cooperation" to the partner after negotiating a contract. Jiang Nan smiled and held the hand she handed over: "happy."
The palms of each other correspond.
I only hope this contract lasts forever.
Although Yanliang specially instructed Aunt Liang, Yanliang encountered her mother breaking into the conference room before she got off work in the evening. Yanliang is voting with her colleagues on the third set of designs sent by the design department. She listens to the statement made by the product director while looking down at the design draft. While concentrating on it, everyone was startled by the loud bang of the door opening.
Yan Liang's hand holding the pen trembled, and before he could raise his head, he heard a voice sternly scolding: "Nonsense!"
this voice
Nearly ten people in the conference room heard the words and looked towards the door in unison.
I saw the old lady Yan, who was always known for her elegance, standing by the door with a sullen expression on her face.
Yanliang naturally also received her mother's anger, thinking about it for a while, Yanliang already understood the reason, and couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling, and then looked at the slightly panicked looks of his colleagues, Yanliang sighed silently in his heart, and said in an ordinary tone as much as possible: " You go out first."
Colleagues looked at each other for a moment, tacitly packed up their things, and left one by one with their meeting documents.
When they passed by the old lady Yan who was standing by the door, they all shrugged their shoulders and lowered their heads nervously, not to look at evil.
"Mom, why are you here?"
The cold and knowingly asking did not work at all, the old lady approached with thin and angry steps, and the faces of the mother and daughter were dazzled by a layer of cold blue light from the projection screen at the side.
"If I hadn't canceled the beauty treatment today and returned home early, and just happened to meet Aunt Liang putting the household registration book back in the study, would I never know the news of my daughter's marriage for the rest of my life?"
""
"You are too impulsive, how can such a big marriage happen?"
Yanliang had expected this kind of reaction from the old lady, and after listening to it calmly, she explained solemnly: "Mom, this is a decision I made after careful consideration, not to mention that even you have been full of praise for Jiang Nan." Is it?"
After hearing these remarks, the old lady became even more angry: "I am full of praise for him because of his ability to work, and because he can help Xu make money! But when it comes to marriage partners, Lu Zheng is the best." The one that suits you best! Only he can help you gain a firm foothold in the Xu family!"
Yan Liang couldn't help but sneer.
But in fact, she still kept persuading her mother with good words, "If the person I marry is Lu Zheng, I will only become my husband's accessory. From what I know about Lu Zheng, he doesn't even bother Xu's family." This mess, do you think he will spend his mind on this mess for me?"
""
"Also, probably many people know that Lu Mingting has clearly stipulated that the first requirement for a future daughter-in-law is: not to interfere with a man's business affairs."
The old lady frowned, obviously hesitating for a moment.
Obviously heard the rumors.
Yanliang was more confident in persuading her mother, without giving her too much time to think, Yanliang quickly continued: "If all I want is a husband who can give me a large amount of living expenses every month to squander, then the way Levy is definitely the best option for me.”
""
"But what I want is Mrs. Xu, what I want is my own empire, not just being a rich wife like you, betting all my happiness on a man."
The old lady's eyes paused, and the hidden pain was cruelly drawn out.
total happiness
bet on a man
This is the greatest pain that has plagued this woman in her thirty years of married life.
The mother's silent expression was so sad that she couldn't bear to look directly at her.
After all, Yanliang couldn't continue, paused, and said with a different mood: "Mom, in short, I have a sense of proportion. If I marry Jiang Nan, I can get the part of the shares assigned to me by my grandfather's will, plus Jiang Nan has won the trust of the directors, as long as I get the support of more than half of the board of directors, I will take over the company, it will be a matter of time."
The old lady couldn't say anything for a long time. Under the projection of the blue light continuously emitted by the projection screen, this once bright and moving face, which is now almost wrinkle-free due to proper maintenance, finally returned to calm, and put all the pitiful and sad all hidden.
Perhaps this is the selfishness of a mother:
"Yanliang, if you use marriage as a bargaining chip, you will be very tired. Mom wanted to make you and Lu Zheng a pair, and she also thought that if you were tired and wanted to leave Xu's one day, you would have a good time with Lu Zheng." Very stable."
""
""
This marriage is a bargaining chip, but not just a bargaining chip. At least they love each other.
Thinking of this, Yan Liang was finally able to calmly face her mother's worries, and said confidently enough: "What I want is success, not stability."
…
…
I want success, not security
Outside the concealed conference room door. Jiang Nan sneered silently. No longer stop, turn around and leave.
The footsteps that have always been vigorous and resolute, at this moment, are unprecedentedly cold.
Go all the way until you walk into the elevator. He dialed Secretary Li's phone expressionlessly.
"President Jiang??"
Secretary Li was very surprised when he received his call.
He said coldly, "What time is the meeting with Chairman Wu?"
Secretary Li couldn't react in time: "Didn't you say before that you have to postpone today's and tomorrow's itinerary, and you have to make time for peace?"
Secretary Li was interrupted before he finished speaking: "What time?"
Secretary Li knew well what it meant to have such a slow, sullen tone. After a pause, he hurriedly said, "Four thirty."—
The author has something to say: Aww! Someone gets angry with serious consequences…
PS: In order to reward a certain color who is diligent, we have to leave a footprint, right? is not it? Is it not... an infinite loop of pretending to be pitiful
