Chapter 32
When Ruan Mohan walked into the sandwich shop on Monday, he wasn't sure if he would see Amy.
When she saw Amy's slender figure behind the counter, she let out a breath.
Although she has nothing to do with Amy, she doesn't like seeing people break down.
Too weak.
She walks over: "Turkey breast sandwich."
Amy smiled at her and whispered, "It's better to add meat for you, whether you eat it yourself or feed the cat."
Ruan Mohan nodded, and glanced at the corner table.
Jian Shuo lay there lazily, poking her finger on the screen of the phone, and the game made a shocking sound: "Double Kill!" "Triple Kill!"
The clerk frowned, and the customers in the store frowned too, but Jian Shuo didn't realize it.
Ruan Mohan looked away.
Five minutes later, when Amy handed the sandwich to Ruan Mohan, Jian Shuo came over and knocked on the counter: "Sister Amy, help me apply the medicine."
Like a baby.
"The sous chef who helps you with the shift is already waiting outside for 10 minutes."
Amy thought for a while: "You go outside and wait for me for a while, I'll finish the order in hand."
Jian Shuo walked out of the shop with a smile.
Ruan Mohan took her own sandwich and was about to leave. Amy leaned into her ear and whispered, "Sister, is that sister lonely and bored?"
Ruan Mohan glanced at Amy.
Amy smiled: "It feels like she is very rich, but she seems to have nothing but money."
Ruan Mohan said indifferently: "Maybe she doesn't need anything."
Ruan Mohan turned around to leave, but was stopped by a voice that had just entered the store: "Director Ruan?"
It is listening personnel.
Amy next to her finished her order, took off her apron, and hurried out of the store to find Jian Shuo.
Personnel came to Ruan Mohan: "Come to buy lunch in person? I'm really sorry, your new assistant has been recruited, Mr. Jian has also signed, and he can arrive tomorrow."
Ruan Mohan nodded, and the personnel asked her: "Don't you really need to take a look at her resume first?"
Ruan Mohan shook his head.
Anyway, to her, they are all tool people without any difference.Most of the work abilities are almost the same, as for personality or appearance, she doesn't care at all.
The personnel told her: "Today, a group of clients from the British company came to the company and had a morning meeting with Mr. Jian. The assistants were all helping out in the meeting room. I came to buy the sandwiches they ordered from S."
The S sandwich is the most bland sandwich.
Boring Brits.
The personnel went to the counter to queue up to order food, and Ruan Mohan left first.
Ruan Mohan saw Amy and Jian Shuo sitting on the bench under the tree when he passed the tree while biting a sandwich.
Amy's back was facing Ruan Mohan, her back was swaying slightly, and she was carefully applying the medicine for Jian Shuo.
The wound at the corner of Jian Shuo's mouth had already healed, but after Saturday's fight, it opened again. After applying the medicine, he grinned again.
Amy stopped Ruan Mohan: "Sister."
Ruan Mohan stopped for a while.
Amy told her: "I accepted this sister's money and donated 160 million to child welfare agencies. I signed up for a language class and started to prepare for graduate studies abroad." She named an Australian university. .
"I will work hard and become a person as powerful as you."
Ruan Mohan was chewing the sandwich, with his eyes downcast, he could just see the wound on the corner of Jian Shuo's mouth.The whole wheat bread felt rough in the mouth, and Ruan Mohan was wondering what it would be like to rub against such a wound.
It hurts and feels good.
She said to Amy lightly: "This is good for you."
It's just Amy, why would you want to be like her?
She and Jian Shuo have never been like Amy.
Jian Shuo said lazily on the side: "Hey, are you done talking? It's time to rub the medicine on me."
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Amy took the cotton ball and quickly sat down opposite Jian Shuo again.
Ruan Mohan took a step closer: "Go back to the shop, I'll wipe it."
Amy and Jian Shuo looked up at the same time and looked at her.
Ruan Mohan stretched out his hand, his indifferent eyes and cold expression carried natural persuasive power.
Amy hesitated and handed the cotton ball to Ruan Mohan.
Ruan Mohan sat down where Amy was just now: "Go and do your work."
"Thank you sister."
Jian Shuo twitched the corner of her mouth, as if in pain, but also as if smiling.
Before Amy left, Ruan Mohan asked her one last question: "After knowing what happened to your ex-boyfriend, are you sad?"
Amy smiled: "I'm so sad."
She is not wearing a peaked cap today.The bruises on her face were not as heavy as Jian Shuo's. After a few days, there were light marks left, which were covered up by her with concealer, and it was not particularly obvious when she looked at it.
It seems that everything is going to start again, starting with the face.
"However, these things will be known sooner or later. It is better to know early than late."
Ruan Mohan nodded: "You go."
Amy ran away like a bunny.
Ruan Mohan handed the sandwich in his hand to Jian Shuo.
Jian Shuo smiled: "Give it all to me?"
Ruan Mohan was expressionless, pointing to his mouth: "When I rub the medicine on you, you feed me."
"I need to finish my lunch at this time and go back to the office to continue working."
Jian Shuo scoffed.
Ruan Mohan poured a little more medicine on the cotton ball in his hand, and pressed it hard on the wound at the corner of Jian Shuo's mouth.
Jian Shuo grinned again: "I know, I know, hello hello."
She tore off the wrapping paper of the sandwich and held it in front of Ruan Mohan.
Ruan Mohan lowered his head, took a big bite, and chewed without burden, holding the medicine bottle in one hand, and rubbing the cotton ball at the corner of Jian Shuo's mouth with the other hand.
Jian Shuo licked the corner of her mouth: "I want to eat too."
Ruan Mohan ignored her and swallowed the sandwich.
Jian Shuo snorted dissatisfied.
Ruan Mohan continued to wipe the wound on Jian Shuo's nose.The medicine was very cold, Jian Shuo kept shrugging her nose like a cat.
The weather in spring is impermanent, today there is a touch of sunshine and a slight wind.
A gust of wind swept over the branches above Ruan Mohan and Jian Shuo's heads. This week, some flowers on the branches have already bloomed.
A piece of pink and white cherry blossom petals fluttered, fluttered, and landed on the end of Ruan Mohan's hair.
Jian Shuo stared at the falling trajectory of the petals, and after the petals settled down, she pouted and blew hard.
Unexpectedly, the petals were so sticky that they were not blown off.Jian Shuo snorted, puffed up her cheeks, and tried harder.
blown off.
Ruan Mohan began to wipe the wound on the corner of her eye.
While rubbing the medicine, she lowered her head and bit the sandwich in Jian Shuo's hand bit by bit.
Jian Shuo kept swallowing her saliva, and asked Ruan Mohan with a smile: "Hey, why didn't you let Sister Amy rub the medicine on me?"
"Are you finally jealous?"
"Let her go." Ruan Mohan pressed the corner of Jian Shuo's eyes with a cotton ball, and said indifferently.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew past.
The cherry blossom petals that bloomed on the branches above the head were blown off quite a bit, sticking to Ruan Mohan's hair ends, and falling on the top of Jian Shuo's dark head.
The light in Jian Shuo's eyes turned cold instantly, and his voice also cooled down, and he asked Ruan Mohan without warmth: "What do you mean?"
Ruan Mohan's tone was still calm and indifferent: "Let her go."
"The drama about her can end here."
"I just know what you want."
Jian Shuo smiled, and in the dark pupils, the bewitching background reappeared: "Do you know what I want?"
Jian Shuo suddenly raised the hand holding the sandwich, like a villain playing a prank.
Ruan Mohan was already on guard, following the strength of her hand, he took the remaining piece of bread into his mouth.
There are several pieces of meat left: "You can eat."
The indifferent voice was like feeding a stray cat casually.
Jian Shuo stuffed the chicken into his mouth, squinting at Ruan Mohan: "What do I want?"
Ruan Mohan didn't answer, and changed a new cotton ball with an indifferent face, and poured the medicine on the cotton ball.
"Look, when you ate something just now, the wound at the corner of your mouth opened again."
She gently pressed the cotton ball on the corner of Jian Shuo's mouth.
It is different from the rubbing just now, but it is extra gentle, but like a feather, gently caressed.
Next, the injury at the tip of the nose, the injury at the end of the eye, all of them.
Like a feather, gently stroked.
Another gust of wind, Jian Shuo couldn't help closing his eyes gently, the chewing in his mouth slowed down, a big ball of chicken was still in his mouth, his cheeks were bulging.
Ruan Mohan's hand suddenly let go of the cotton ball, and gently landed on top of Jian Shuo's head.
Like petals blown by the wind just now.
With fragrance.With tenderness.
"It doesn't hurt anymore."
Jian Shuo was taken aback.
Ruan Mohan's tone seemed to be coaxing an injured child who couldn't find anyone to act like a spoiled child.
"It doesn't hurt anymore, ah."
Jian Shuo's eyelids trembled slightly, and her long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings.
In the next second, a fir fragrance came from her nose, and it was getting closer and closer. Amid the fresh cherry blossom fragrance, this body fragrance seemed particularly cool.
Ruan Mohan's voice rang in her ears: "The day you were injured, you went to the organic supermarket near Jane's house."
"Bai Jingxian thought you were going to buy ice cream, but I know that you are not."
"You are going to wait for Bai Jingxian, and want her to see you who is hurt."
Jian Shuo suddenly opened his eyes.
Ruan Mohan's face was close in front of her eyes and caught her eyes.
cool.Indifferent.
Ruan Mohan said, "What do you want Bai Jingxian to do?"
"I want her to be like my mother, pat your head, and say that it doesn't hurt, is it all right?"
Ruan Mohan patted Jian Shuo's head again: "It doesn't hurt anymore, ah."
Jian Shuo opened Ruan Mohan's hand fiercely, and shook his head violently like a cat drowning in the water. Until then, finally a passerby hurriedly looked at Jian Shuo.
I guess she's mentally ill.
Jian Shuo shook her head ferociously, and her jet-black curly long hair flew up, like a cat shaking off water droplets from its hair, and shook off the cherry blossom petals stuck to her hair.
With a "grunt", she swallowed the chicken breast before she could chew it thoroughly.
She slammed the empty wrapping paper of the sandwich in her hand on Ruan Mohan's face, and after Ruan Mohan lightly took the wrapping paper away from her eyes, the strange and ghostly smile had returned to Jian Shuo's face.
"very good."
"Very good, Miss Mo."
"The game now seems to be starting to increase."
Ruan Mohan got up, rolled up the sandwich wrapping paper in his hand, threw it into the trash can, and left.
Behind her, accompanied by the spring breeze, came another enchanting and inaudible laughter.
******
When Ruan Mohan returned to the office, he found out that everyone's gossip was related to work.
"Today, there are more than a dozen customers from the British company, right? It's a big battle."
"I came early in the morning, and Boss Jane had a meeting with them for most of the day, and I ate lunch in the conference room."
"Secretary Song called his wife when he heard Mr. Jian came out to go to the bathroom, with a serious face, saying that it was related to the life and death of listening."
"Really or not? Lingyin is such a big aircraft carrier, you can't just say it's sinking, right? No, I'd better check the jobs on the recruitment website first, so I'll be prepared."
Ruan Mohan turned a deaf ear, and when he walked back to his office and closed the door, the last gossip he heard was:
"That woman smells so good."
******
After processing the form to be handed over to the client, Ruan Mohan went to the tea room to make himself a cup of hot tea.
Back in his office, he opened the blinds, stood in front of the huge French windows, and took a short break.
She is logical and well-arranged, knowing that after high-intensity work, proper rest can ensure that the next work will not go wrong.
Ruan Mohan was drinking hot tea when he saw a Bentley Tim Yuet passing by downstairs.
Not purple, just plain black.It's not Jian Shuo's car.
But it reminded Ruan Mohan of that day, when she saw Jian Shuo's purple Bentayga, she inexplicably got into a fight with a purple Maserati.
The speed soared to the limit of the city road, the car window was opened a crack, and the wind whizzed by.
The sharp rise of adrenaline in the body made the temperature in the small compartment scorching hot.
It was a kind of exciting pleasure that Ruan Mohan had never experienced before.
It feels like something Jian Shuo can only do.
Ruan Mohan was drinking hot tea, and when he looked away from downstairs, he inadvertently saw a small hole at the end of the half-drawn venetian blind.
The venetian blinds next to the floor-to-ceiling glass in the big office were newly installed at the request of Ruan Mohan.But the one next to the road window is an old thing, with traces left after the previous director used it.
Ruan Mohan stretched out his slender fingers, put his fingertips into the small hole, and pressed hard.
She somehow wanted to make the small hole bigger.
Maybe, she is just like Jian Shuo in her bones.
A natural craving for danger.There is a natural desire for destruction and destruction in his bones.
After taking a sip of hot tea, she regained her senses and pulled her fingers out.
This venetian blind will continue to be used, don't be ruined by her.
She flicked her high heels, walked back to the computer and sat down, typing a few times on the keyboard with her slender fingers.
An English page popped up on the computer screen, which was the introduction of an Australian university.
This is the university that Amy said just now that she wants to take the postgraduate entrance examination.
Ruan Mohan read it carefully.
The threshold is not high, the major is acceptable, and the tuition fee is moderate. It is a very suitable choice for Amy.
Ruan Mohan leaned on the back of the office chair, intending to finish the hot tea in the cup.
His eyes drifted away from the university profile page on the computer screen and landed on the two photo frames on the desk.
On the left of Ruan Qingyin's photo is an old photo that is slightly yellowed. A girl who is less than ten years old has a delicate oval face, very similar to Ruan Mohan.
Amy's clean, gentle and melon-seeded face appeared before Ruan Mohan's eyes.
If the girl in the old photo had a chance to grow up, would she look like Amy?
No, the girl's eyes are more round and blunt. Ruan Mohan thinks that Amy may still look more like herself after reasonable deduction.
She grew up in an ordinary and harmonious family.
Ruan Mohan leaned his head back on the back of the office chair, looking at the ceiling of the office.
Jian Shuo's kindness to Amy is completely different from Jian Shuo's kindness to Zhong Yunli.
When seeing Jian Shuo being kind to Amy, Ruan Mohan had a very complicated emotion in his heart.
envy.envious.Sour.gratified.Kneaded together, it finally turned into a slight warmth.
Let Amy be like this, take a simple job, go to a simple school, and be a simple person.
She and Jian Shuo should let Amy go.
Let Amy be something they'll never have the chance to be.
******
Later in the afternoon, Jian Ming impromptu called a meeting of all middle and high-level officials.
When Ruan Mohan walked into the meeting room, he met Chu Xingyun.
Chu Xingyun lowered his voice and asked, "What's the situation?"
Ruan Mohan shook his head, indicating that she didn't know either.
Soon they will know.Jian Ming cut to the chase, saying that starting from now on, all resources and funds will be directed towards this British company.
It's a big gamble.
If it succeeds, listening to the leading position in the medical instrument and equipment industry will no longer be shaken.Failed, maybe it is not impossible for an aircraft carrier to sink slowly, as those employees in the marketing department talked about.
Ruan Mohan glanced at everyone on the board of directors present, and found that no one responded.
Apparently, the directors have reached an agreement with Jian Ming.
Ruan Mohan was just a middle-level employee. She thought that in the data reports that she couldn't see, maybe the decay of the listening sound was more serious than she imagined.
So Jian Ming made such an aggressive move, and none of the directors objected.
The middle-level people present exchanged glances with each other, but did not speak.
Jian Ming projected the introduction of the British company on the big screen.
Perhaps out of commercial confidentiality considerations, before this, the middle managers including Ruan Mohan had never heard that Lingyin was going to cooperate with this British company called GS.
Ruan Mohan looked at the introduction on the screen.
She reads very quickly, and already knows that GS has strong strength, abundant funds, and deep accumulation in the medical industry.
Seems like a good partner.
There is only one question: Why did they suddenly choose to cooperate with Lingyin when they have been quite successful in cultivating the domestic market and their development momentum is good?
Ruan Mohan glanced at Jian Ming at the head of the conference table, and found that his fingertips were trembling slightly on the table.
The voice was still calm: "Then let's take a look at the composition of the team that GS is working with us."
"The group of them will first go to the surrounding area of Beicheng to inspect the communication technology required for a GS business. From next Monday, they will officially start stationing and listening."
"We still have nearly a week to prepare."
Photos appeared one by one on the screen, with names, positions, majors, and directors attached.
This is indeed a well-prepared cooperation plan.
Ruan Mohan glanced at Jian Ming's hand on the table again, as if to conceal the trembling of his fingertips, Jian Ming tapped the table with his fingers very lightly and densely.
The short and neatly trimmed nails tapped on the table, clicking, clicking, clicking.
This small voice could not be heard by others, but it kept passing into Ruan Mohan's oversensitive ears.
Ruan Mohan felt very strange.
She stared at the screen, remembering the faces of future partners in her mind.
When the photo popped up on the screen, Ruan Mohan's mind was almost synchronized, and two words popped out: it was her.
The woman that the employees in the marketing department were talking about: "That woman is so delicious."
Maybe it was during the lunch break, someone sneaked into the meeting room on the top floor, saw the woman's true face, and was deeply attracted or shocked.
Ruan Mohan stared at the enlarged photo on the screen.
The woman is about 40 years old, Chinese, with thick black hair as thick as a cloud, slightly curled, and a low bun behind her head.
With high eyebrows, deep eyes, and slightly sharp looks, she is not a typical beauty, but as the employees said, she has her own flavor.
Ruan Mohan stared at the woman's photo, and even though the air conditioner was on in the meeting room, she trembled.
The woman's eyes made her feel cold all over.
He obviously had a standard business smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely indifferent.Looking inside again, it was cold and nothingness again.
Ruan Mohan felt inexplicably, as if seeing herself ten years later.
Or, it is a combination of some of her and Jian Shuo's characteristics.
A truly emotionless robot.
******
After Jian Ming finished playing the GS team introduction, he announced the end of the meeting: "Before GS settles in next Monday, please start preparing well."
It seems that cooperation has become a certainty.
When walking out of the meeting room, Chu Xingyun followed behind Ruan Mohan and asked in a low voice, "What do you think?"
Ruan Mohan was noncommittal, and asked, "What about you?"
Chu Xingyun answered from his professional perspective: "If we cooperate with GS, their R&D team is excellent and can help us solve some technical bottlenecks."
"But because they are too strong, they may take the initiative and the right to speak. Over time, we will lose all our advantages and lose the capital to play on an equal footing."
Ruan Mohan asked: "Are you not in favor of this cooperation?"
Chu Xingyun spread his hands: "I'm just a hard-working technician, and I can't decide these things."
At this time, Zhong Yunli passed by them and bumped a chair.
Ruan Mohan glanced at her and found that she was in a trance.
"sorry."
She didn't argue with Ruan Mohan, she apologized in a low voice, and walked away in nine centimeter high heels.
Chu Xingyun smiled: "What's wrong with her? Did something happen with that little boyfriend?"
After Zhong Yunli got that house, her material needs were met, and the spiritual emptiness that had been suppressed in the past few decades seemed to burst out in an instant, and she was extremely clingy to her little boyfriend.
Now the whole company knows that Zhong Yunli has found a puppy.
Ruan Mohan shook his head: "I don't know, and I don't want to know."
She's really not interested in other people's affairs.
The two walked to the elevator together, and Ruan Mohan suddenly said, "You go first, I forgot a pen in the meeting room, I'll get it."
She turned around and walked back to the direction of the meeting room. When she passed by the meeting room, she didn't go in.
Turn left and knock on the door of Jian Ming's office.
"Come in."
Ruan Mohan pushed the door open, and Jian Ming was a little surprised: "Director Ruan, what's the matter?"
In fact, Ruan Mohan was a little surprised that he was sitting opposite Jian Ming now.
She lowered her eyes slightly, and saw a photo frame on Jian Ming's desk. The old photos in the frame were Jian Ming and Jian Shuo's grandfather, the founder of Listening Group, and grandma Yang Haining.
Ruan Mohan decided to continue: "Mr. Jian, I want to discuss with you. Is it too aggressive to cooperate with GS?"
Jian Ming frowned slightly.
Ruan Mohan put his laptop on Jian Ming's desk, opened it, and pulled out a list of tables to show him: "The listening situation is not good, it's a fact that everyone can see."
"However, if the new products of the R&D department are successfully launched, there will be great opportunities in the Huazhong and Huake markets."
"Lingyin is making steady progress. It's not that there is no chance to go further. To restore the decline, it is not necessary to use aggressive methods."
Her slender fingers quickly tapped on the keyboard, and a column of data on the table changed rapidly.
She is showing Jian Ming the possible future of listening.
Jian Ming nodded slightly: "Director Ruan, I know you are very capable at work, and I also know that you really think about the company."
"I thank you for coming to me today to say this."
"but."
Jian Ming's eyes were burning, as if there was some unexhausted passion burning in his youth: "I don't want to listen to the status quo, I want to listen to become the absolute overlord!"
Even the voice was several degrees higher than the usual gentle baritone, which was particularly harsh to Ruan Mohan's sensitive ears.
She knew that Jian Ming had made up her mind, and it was useless to say more, so she stood up and said goodbye: "I respect the group's decision and will do my job well."
Jian Ming nodded, and his tone returned to normal: "Director Ruan, please perform well. When introducing the listening team at the meeting in the morning, Mr. Jiang expressed his high expectations for you."
Mr. Jiang is that very flavorful woman, Jiang Karen.
Ruan Mohan was slightly surprised: "She knows me?"
"No." Jian Ming shook his head: "She just looked at your photo and resume."
