reprieve
Chapter 27 Time [Struggle]
Because of the nature of work, Sui Ran often has to deal with various people, many of whom expand the understanding of species diversity.
Probably because I had too much communication with people at work, and in private, Sui Ran didn't like it or didn't have more energy to deal with socializing.
Be it colleagues or friends.
Unlike many colleagues, Sui Ran is not the kind of extroverted person, and there is no situation where he can't stand loneliness and needs to draw energy from social interaction.
Colleague gatherings, unless the roll call invitation must be in place, she will not take the initiative to participate.
The public and private are clearly separated.
Of course, she rarely troubles her colleagues and friends when she encounters problems.
Her friends are few and far between.
With her, Haicheng is firstly her superior, and secondly the master who leads her in.With the first two identities, she felt that Gao Panhai was the boss when talking about friendship by force.
So to meet in private, either Haicheng took the initiative to find out, or she couldn't handle the situation at work for the time being.
Haicheng said that she is very cool in this regard, as if everyone is a tool to her.
Sui Ran thought about it, and it seemed that, for such a big deal as a divorce, she only had a drink with Haicheng once - or the other party even coaxed someone with power to crush him to death - and didn't say anything else.
I still owe Mr. Hai a big meal.
Mr. Hai didn't want to eat Dadong today, so he chose a seafood buffet.
Putting down the bag, Haicheng went to the bathroom, and said fiercely before leaving: "I'll give you another 5 minutes, let me be honest."
Sui Ran did not have a temper and made a cute gesture, nodding like a chicken pecking at rice.
Even though she repeatedly emphasized to Hai Cheng that Ruan Shuo had already given up and had no time to think about that person.
When Haicheng suddenly mentioned Ruan Shuo in the car, she was stunned for a while, still feeling a little uneasy.
After dating for four years, Ruan Shuo may not know her well enough, but she knows Ruan Shuo.
Sometimes Ruan Shuo's mind is fixed, and anything is possible, and Ruan Shuo is very narcissistic - "I am the world by myself, and I am the only one in the universe".
It was just a moment of loss that was caught by Haicheng, who believed that she was open-minded and soft-hearted.
Sui Ran was helpless.
"Have you figured out how to say it?"
Haicheng sat down, tapped the tip of his chopsticks on the saucer, the aftertaste was long.
"I finally moved out, you expect me to order it, Mr. Hai." Sui Ran begged for mercy, "You don't want to be dragged out by me again during the meeting."
Moving was a mess.
At that time, the situation was urgent, Sui Ran had no choice but to call Haicheng for help, and then inevitably confessed to Haicheng the reason for the breakup.
——"The past is over, let's start a new life."
What Haicheng said back then, Sui Ran did the same.
It has only been less than two months, and when I think about it again, it seems like two years have passed, and everything is blurred.
There are many emergencies to be dealt with at work, and she is very good at finding things for herself, so she really doesn't have the time, energy and energy to deal with them.
But Haicheng still seemed worried.
If it were someone else, it would be impossible to let go of the relationship of four or five years.
But the fact is that if Hai Cheng hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten how famous Ruan Shuo is.
Looking at it this way, she is quite cool.
"Didn't Ruan Shuo look for you?" Hai Cheng asked.
"She can't find me." Sui Ran said with certainty, "Wechat and mobile phone numbers are all blocked, and I don't use other social tools, so she can't find me if she wants to. Besides, people may not be free to find me. "
Maybe he's too busy traveling around the world with his new lover to collect stories.
Ruan Shuo is a photographer.
Although most people look like playing tickets.
Ruan Shuo's family background is good, very good, she is an only child, her parents are quite enlightened.
Sui Ran agreed to live together because Ruan Shuo took her to meet her parents directly, and Ruan's parents also liked her appearance - she had come out with her parents, so she should be able to walk together for a long time, she thought so at that time .
For twelve months a year, Ruan Shuo was not in Haicheng for two-thirds of the time.She likes to go to various places where WiFi coverage is not available to take pictures of all kinds of weird things.
In the past two years, Sui Ran followed him to many places, but once she fell into a pool and almost didn't get out, she didn't like to follow her, and stayed at home all day to make videos for Ruan Shuo's repairs.
Out of trust in Ruan Shuo, this kind of life lasted for two years, until——
She found out that Ruan Shuo had cheated.
Cheating is not only accompanied by lies, but also often reveals a person's true face, making people feel like waking up from a dream.
"I'm done with Ruan Shuo." Sui Ran resolutely said, "Don't worry."
Haicheng looked at her for a few seconds through the steaming heat, and his expression became more lively, "What's the situation with you and Mr. Huai?"
Sui Ran leaned back, patted his forehead with the back of his hand, and whispered, "Enough is enough."
Jokes also have to be divided into objects.
Another thing Sui Ran likes about this job is that it is a one-time supply and demand relationship with customers. Once the project cooperation is over, customers will naturally turn their attention away.
The rest are just routine greetings during festivals or special times. After contacting her in the early stage, the other party thinks that she is nice and easy to talk to. If she needs help later, she will not refuse to take a free job.
But as time passed, it gradually faded away.
Unless you are bundled under one roof, there are no people or things that you cannot forget.
Focusing limited contact and communication on work is enough, and nothing else is needed.
Sui Ran thinks so.
But she couldn't deny that she was able to quickly throw Ruan Shuo into a corner to fend for herself, thanks to President Huai to a certain extent.
She could feel all kinds of subtle but traceable changes in Huai'an after the resumption of work.
Regardless of the distance, Ms. Sang's words "Your feet are not well" are vivid in my ears.
She is not a piece of wood, not to mention very high, at least not below the average line.
People who are active in their minds and able to take care of themselves at work may not necessarily be lacking in other areas.
People seem to have the nature of gossip.
For example, coming out of the closet in a small area in college, let’s not mention the unpleasant voice, but such as "So who seems to be les, broke up with his girlfriend a while ago, can you talk about it?", "What type do you like, I will introduce it to you later. "Yeah" and so on from time to time.
It means "look, I don't reject homosexuality, I understand and support it" with actions and words, but it's also idle.
Haicheng is no exception.
Probably seeing President Huai getting closer to her, not rejecting the same is equivalent to being able to accept and develop further, the heart of the mother-in-law is ready to move.
But Sui Ran knew it was impossible.
And I am very resistant to this kind of idea that I don't know where it came from, and jokes that I say casually.
She thought that when the preparations for the new company in Huai'an were completed, the two of them would gradually change back to two parallel lines after they had no work communication.
The possibility of developing into a casual friend is even slim.
It's awkward, and a little clueless.
Sui Ran knows good and bad.
Is it good for President Huai to complain to Wang Wei?
Of course there is.
Relieve.
Huai'an acts properly, and "principles" and "rules" seem to be labels written on business cards with transparent ink.
Her status is that there are some things that she doesn't have to care about, or don't have to endure.
But that doesn't mean Huai always does it for her.
When she resigned back then, people in the know, including Hai Cheng, thought it was because of Ruan Shuo, and Sui Ran did not deny that Ruan Shuo offered her an offer she could not refuse, which became the main opportunity for her to resign.
But Sui Ran knew that the resignation was not just because of Ruan Shuo.
Things are often the same on the surface, but not deep down.
Outsiders will inevitably have a glimpse of the leopard.
Like this time, when Huai'an complained to Wang Wei, Haicheng believed that she was at fault, and the chat records sent by Yao Ruo turned into a struggle between the regional presidents within the company.
Sui Ran didn't want to think too much, nor would she think too much.
As for escaping...
It's purely Haicheng's overthinking.
Sui Ran didn't want to discuss matters other than work with Mr. Hai anymore, so he asked instead: "Mr. Hai, do you still remember Liang Qian?"
"Remember, you didn't blame him for having a fight with me back then." Hai Cheng didn't care, "In the second year after you left the job, this guy was slapped in the face by the newcomer he brought in front of the client, and he was persuaded to leave later. .”
Haicheng still finds it funny when he thinks about it.
Liang Qian, the modesty of a gentleman.
However, he is a wretched man who does not live up to his name.
Make every opportunity to touch the little girl's arms and thighs, and hug her.
"You all thought that I left because of Ruan Shuo. I did use her as an excuse." Sui Ran said, "But..."
She shrugged and stopped deliberately.
Haicheng was drinking water, looking at her with one eye over the blue bottle.
The sudden mention of Liang Qian in the front, and the reason for leaving the job later, the intention is self-evident.
Haicheng snapped a crab leg with a "crack" and stopped talking.
Sui Ran also bowed her head and ate the food without speaking.
She actually blamed Haicheng for not keeping track of it. She clearly said it was over, but suddenly she chased after him fiercely, and made a fuss about Mr. Huai.
She didn't mention Liang Qian on purpose.
It happened that Yao Ruo talked about Mr. Hai holding a small meeting for the girls in the morning.
In four years, everyone has changed a lot.
The atmosphere that was about to freeze was broken by the message sound of "ding dong".
Sui Ran looked at the screen, his expression relaxed.
Huaian: "When will Mr. Wei arrange a road show? I'll confirm the time."
Sui Ran first confirmed whether Mr. Wei was in Science and Technology Valley in the afternoon, and then returned to Mr. Huai: "I'll go to talk to him in the afternoon."
She had just put down her phone when Haicheng asked, "Where are you going this afternoon?"
Sui Ran replied, "Technology Valley."
"Have you divided the clues?"
"No, there was something wrong with the client before."
The one-two-minute silence just now turned over.
Haicheng sent her to the park where Mr. Wei was. After getting off the car, Sui Ran took a picture at the door and sent it to Moments, with the caption: "Business hours [struggle]"
I didn't post the location, and I was very careful not to take pictures of the specific LOGO.
If there is no problem with the road show, Mr. Wei will be taken over by Yu An later, and it has nothing to do with her.Sui Ran thought happily.
I heard that the road show was initiated by the investor, and Mr. Wei rarely cooperated.
He is a typical engineering man, maybe his brain is running too fast, his mouth can't keep up with the rhythm, and he can memorize two or three paragraphs from the script very smoothly, but Sui Ran asks him to answer a question listed in the report, he is like an overheated machine , his eyes rolled around, his forehead was sweating, and he couldn't speak smoothly.
Sui Ran thought to himself not to sigh, not to hit Mr. Wei who finally knew how to cooperate, and changed the question: "What kind of team configuration do you think can make you work more smoothly?"
Mr. Wei babbled and groaned for a long time, and finally choked out four words: "You are like this."
Sui Ran: "..."
She closed the folder and handed it to Mr. Wei: "You...you look again, think about the questions written on it, take the time to write a draft by yourself as soon as possible, and let me know when you set the time for the road show."
When going out, don't forget to turn around and say: "Either I will ask you tomorrow morning."
Mr. Wei said with a bitter face, "Okay."
Like a primary school student abandoned by his parents.
Sui Ran mercilessly closed the door.
At the bus stop, Sui Ran was flipping through his phone thinking about where to go next, when a call from President Huai popped up on the screen.
"Is it at Mr. Wei's place?" Huai An seemed to be in the car, and there was an echo.
Sui Ran: "Uh..."
"My colleagues and I came to meet a few teams that we invested in before, and would like to drop by Mr. Wei, is it convenient?"
The author has something to say: rest tomorrow (today).
Claws can't stand it.
See you on Sunday.
