reprieve

Sui Ran always drives slowly, seeking stability while slowing down.

Haicheng—Wake up, look out the window and then look at the navigation, unbelievable: "Departure at 08:30, now 23-[-], it's been three hours, I thought I got off the expressway anyway, you just got here ?That's it?"

"It's raining." Sui Ran remained indifferent, and kept moving forward at the original speed.

"You can run so far at the lowest speed, I also admire." Haicheng took out the electronic cigarette, "I have an appointment with Mr. Ye at two o'clock, if you slow down, we won't be able to eat somewhere."

"Then why don't you tell Mr. Ye to go directly to her project, and eat something in the service area after a while?"

It was Mr. Hai's idea to drive to Hangcheng. The weather was fine before departure. Unexpectedly, it started to rain just after leaving Haicheng.Yexiemen, every time the exit is approaching, the rain becomes smaller, and there are signs of clearing, but - after the exit, the rain becomes heavier again.After missing two exits, Sui Ran simply didn't want to get off the highway.

Haicheng sighed deeply, picked up the phone and sent a voice: "Mr. Ye, it's raining on the road, we may not be able to catch up with your company at two o'clock, why don't you send me the location, we will go directly to your project later Let's meet."

Hearing the reply "No problem", Haicheng turned his head and said, "Boss Ye is very busy, today is my favor, you can figure out what questions you have later—ask them together, the person who turns back may—may have time Treat you."

Sui Ran nodded: "Just go and have a general look, let's talk about the details later."

Haicheng understood: "Okay, anyway, you are running errands for President Huai."

Sui Ran was noncommittal.

Mr. Feng called Sui Ran on Friday morning, and he said very unhappy: "I can't get through to your friend, so you have to let her come over."

The tone of the boss is not happy, showing the helplessness of being forced to re-employment.But when the old lady said it, Sui Ran knew it was over.

After negotiating with Mr. Feng, Huai'an has more things to do.Unlike in Yu'an, where there was a tacitly coordinated team to assist, she now has very few people available under her command, and she has several roles, spinning like a spinning top every day.

Sui Ran settled the two major cases in one fell swoop, she had nothing to do for the time being, and wanted to help but was afraid of causing trouble.Huai'an never told her not to worry about it, and when he came back at night, he would talk to her about the progress and details, as if he regarded her as a shareholder.

When the budget book was not released, Sui Ran was unavoidably a little proud of turning over and being the master, but when he opened the budget book, he felt that President Huai took time out of his busy schedule to make her happy, which was very... considerate.

The money that Yu'an allocated to her account is enough for most people to reach the threshold of financial freedom, but in the budget outline, it is not even enough to cover the cost of park renovation and customized equipment, let alone the subsequent investment in research and development expenses and human resources.After hastily scanning the outline, Sui Ran didn't even have the courage to read the dozens of pages of the original copy, and was so sad that everything was empty.

Although she has done psychological training and knew that biomedical research and development is a bottomless pit, she never thought that one day she would burn a lot of money at the bottom of the bottomless pit.

Mr. Huai sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, didn't say anything at the time, and asked her the next day if she had the resources and energy to find a high-quality and low-cost construction company, so as to control the cost.

Sui Ran tasted the product and stamped her boss Huai is really scary, instead of directly comforting her "don't worry, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge", but let her participate, assigning it to her seems difficult, but it can be done if you think of a way completed tasks.

All in all, Sui Ran contacted quite a few decoration engineering companies large and small in Haicheng.

An investment of tens of millions is not a small project anyway.To decide whether to list it as a candidate, in addition to the preliminary contact, Sui Ran thinks it is reasonable to go to the project site inspection, but several customer service companies are fooled by her failure to provide information, and what's more, they directly accuse her of being a colleague. Inquire about insider information——When encountering such cases, no matter how qualified the company is or how excellent the past cases are, Sui Ran will always mark them as crossed.

Sui Ran is quite stubborn on this point. She counts herself as a service provider, and she values ​​the service quality of the other party very much.In the first round of contact, regardless of whether the client is sincere or not, the attitude must be correct, and of course the other party is not required to respond to requests, at least treat the client without preconceived so much hostility.

I don't know if it's because she is too demanding, or because she has touched the sensitive point of an unfamiliar industry because of the interlacing. After the first round of screening, there are only four companies left on the list to be investigated.

With no other choice, Sui Ran had no choice but to find Hai Cheng as foreign aid.

Mr. Hai has a wide network of contacts, and before opening the address book, he mentioned Mr. Ye, whom they were going to meet soon.It is said that Mr. Ye and she have been friends in the circle of friends for many years. Last year, they bid for the renovation project of Lingang Park. The quotation was within the budget and the qualification review headquarters also passed. However, when they finally reported to Junting, due to the design style and non-local The company was rejected by a certain boss of Jun Ting who had the right to speak.

Ye's head office has a good background in everything, except for one thing, her base camp is in Hangzhou.Like Jun Ting's reason for denying her, Sui Ran was worried that some local joints would not be able to get through by then, which would affect the progress, so she didn't put it in the list at first.However, after inspecting the two families in Haicheng, they were not very satisfactory in general, so she decided to meet Mr. Ye.

Haicheng—Wake up, Sui Ran's ears can no longer be quiet.

Feeling that the car was too dull, Haicheng turned on the car audio, connected to the Bluetooth, and the phone's ding ding dong dong sounded continuously, Sui Ran had to disconnect the link manually, and then sent back a message like watching Mr. Hai's octopus Sending a voice message to that person, it was only four or five kilometers to the service area, and the different names of "Xiao x" and "X Zong" were changed countless times.

After finally putting down the phone, Haicheng's attention turned to Sui Ran: "You don't care about other things these days, just help President Huai to investigate, do you really plan to have sex with her in the future?"

Sui Ran said casually: "No."

Similar conversations happened more than once or twice during this period.

She didn't tell Boss Hai about the quarrel with Yu'an's two bosses in the early stage. Judging from Haicheng's reaction, Boss Sang and Boss Rui also didn't reveal that they were acting as props by her.

But even if Haicheng didn't know the inside story, Sui Ran made it clear that she didn't want to change jobs, because the span was too big, and secondly, she couldn't think of the need to change jobs—Lao Lou and Lai Shuai left, and Fu Lanzhou returned to Yanjing to report on his work in name In fact, internal investigations are accepted, and everyone is or will pay for their actions.

She reviewed the case with Huai'an, and agreed that she did not violate the company's rules or legal principles, no matter whether she was subjective or objective, and there was no need to pay for other people's faults.

Chew it as long as you want, and she can't lose a single hair.

So Sui Ran couldn't figure out why Hai Cheng always asked her if she was going to leave Zhaoyue, and she also wondered where did Mr. Hai's attitude of "going away, go away" and sticking to her sticky body come from? Come, make her look like a scumbag.

She asked: "Are you expecting me to leave, or do you want me to add to the labor contract that I will pay you liquidated damages for resignation?" She teased, "I always think how many times it should be filled? Is three times enough?"

Haicheng rolled her eyes, hummed and didn't answer, happened to arrive at the service area, she put on her coat, got off near the convenience store, and asked Sui Ran to fill up the gas.

We drove for about four hours on the road. According to the itinerary, it is lunch time in Huai'an.Mr. Huai recently flew to Yanjing and Haicheng, and is discussing cooperation with some college teams.Sui Ran always felt that she was in a hurry and wanted to finalize something in the last few working days of the year, but she didn't take the initiative to ask about the details, so she didn't know much about it.

The weather near the service area is fine, with clouds and rain.After parking the car, Sui Ran found a place where he couldn't see the direction and took a photo and sent it to him as a stone to ask the way.

The sky after the rain was intensely blue, and it was still cold. After taking the photo, Sui Ran wanted to hurry back to the car, but his phone vibrated, and there was traffic on the other side, and he also sent a picture.

Half a cup of coffee and a paper book. On the pages of the book-lines of loose English characters, like a poem.At a glance, I know every word, and it does not seem to be a difficult and difficult professional report.

The background is somewhat blurred, and the vast blue sky outside the floor-to-ceiling windows can be vaguely discerned. At first glance, it is full of literary and artistic sentiment.

Sui Ran was overjoyed, thinking that Mr. Huai finally had time to relax, and was curious about what the other side was looking at, but he hadn't switched the language mode to read the content, and another paragraph popped up below.

Huaian: "I saw it in the morning, and I found the original text to read. Thinking about it now, it fits my mood very well ;D"

The shooting angle quite shows the photographer's technique, the upper part is blurred, so the lower part is highlighted:

"Iamnottospeaktoyou, IamtothinkofyouwhenIsitaloneorwakeatnightalone,

Iamtowait, IdonotdoubtIamtomeetyouagain,

I am to see to it that I don't lose you." (Note)

Cut off—a semi-separate short poem, the grammar is simple, and the charm can be understood even without translation.Sui Ran read it silently several times, and the moment he understood it, his mood was indescribable, sour and numb.

Sui Ran rubbed her nose, her eyes turned around the screen unconsciously, and suddenly noticed the blue sky in the background—a faint white patch, like an airplane.

She was startled: "Are you at the airport?"

No, I watched lunchtime a few minutes ago—a small blank space is still sandwiched between the dense red and blue itineraries.

She frantically switches back to the calendar.The outdoor temperature is low, the hands are frozen, and the mobile phone is unresponsive and unresponsive. After a few seconds of freezing, the original red and blue labels in the APP are all cleared. The latest interface is simple - one word: "back".

Sui Ran was really stunned this time: "We're still on the way, we haven't arrived yet [I'm about to cry]" Before departure, she sent a message to Huai'an to go to Hangzhou, and she told Huai'an to drive slowly because the weather is bad today.

Huai'an: "No rush, the flight is delayed. If you arrive early, I will wait for you, if you arrive late, you will wait for me [hug]"

When Haicheng came out of the convenience store, Sui Ran hadn't gotten into the car yet.

"Isn't it cold outside? What are you doing standing there?" Haicheng threw a can of hot coffee, "It's just a coincidence that something happened at Mr. Ye's construction site, and it might take some time to deal with it. Let's go to her place Let's eat again."

Sui Ran was not in the mood to eat, so she went to Hangzhou and urged Hai Cheng to find a random restaurant to satisfy her food and clothing, and hurry to the construction site.

"I'm sorry, the structural diagram given by Party A is very old, and the subsequent changes have not been recorded. The temperature has dropped a lot in the past two days, and there is something wrong with the pipeline renovation. Please wait for me." Mr. Ye raised his hand and looked at his watch , "Two 10 minutes to half an hour."

"No hurry, take your time." Hai Cheng took two steps back and stood on the steps, avoiding the flooding water, and pulled Sui Ran, "Let's wait outside in the shed."

Sui Ran didn't move, just watched Mr. Ye put on his long rubber shoes and strode towards the pipe that was gushing water.

Thick water gushed out of the pipe mouth more than one meter high. When they arrived at the scene, Mr. Ye had just arrived. At that time, the workers were moving equipment outside, and some people shouted "turn off the power", which is obviously not a small situation.

Although the atmosphere at the scene was extremely tense and people from all walks of life shuttled back and forth, under the command of Mr. Ye, the personnel moved quickly and orderly, and no one panicked at all.

The time estimated by Mr. Ye was not far behind. In less than 10 minutes, the water gushing from the pipe gradually decreased and decreased. She explained a few words to the people around her, took the towel handed by the staff, and wiped her hands —He walked towards the corner where Sui Ran and Hai Cheng were.

"If you have any questions, just ask." Haicheng thought she was nervous, and intentionally explained to Mr. Ye, "Let her organize the words."

"It's noisy inside, let's talk outside." Mr. Ye smiled nonchalantly and directed them to go outside.

Leaving the construction site, we finally talked to each other without shouting. Sui Ran cleared his throat and asked, "When are you free to go to Haicheng recently? It will probably take you a day."

Mr. Ye pondered for a while: "Today is Tuesday, Thursday at the earliest."

"Okay, I'll go back and sort out the information and send it to you." Sui Ran stretched out her hand, "Please tell me when you decide."

Mr. Ye shook her hands: "Okay, let's do this first, I will go to work first."

Sui Ran made a gesture of invitation, watched Mr. Ye enter the door, and took out the canned coffee that was cold in his pocket, "If the price is right, it's probably Mr. Ye's home."

She handed the coffee to Hai Cheng who still didn't understand the situation, and asked, "Mr. Hai, why don't you go back and discuss with Mr. Ye, see if the price can be..."

"What is it? Can you? You just said a few words to Mr. Ye?" Hai Cheng was ignored the whole time, and he felt a little upset, "Did you say eight words back and forth for eight hours? "

"No need." Sui Ran rubbed her hands, breathed warmly into her palms, and pushed Haicheng to the parking lot, "Her company's introduction almost ruined me, this time I came to see the scene. It's good to see it." .”

After only a quarter of an hour at the site, she suddenly felt the certainty of "this is this one" that she did not have in other on-site inspections.

She has been observing Mr. Ye.The more she observes, the more she can feel the aura of deja vu from Mr. Ye. When she thinks carefully, there are sisters Enyue's calmness in the face of danger, Rui Lan's comforting kindness, and Ms. Fei's unique decisiveness, and President Huai's multi-threaded handling of things is methodical.It is not intentional to compare Mr. Ye with others, but the means of dealing with emergencies can be seen in the real chapter.

The most important thing is that after Mr. Ye issued the order, the team's execution was sufficient. This is the most rare thing, and it is also what she thinks is a little lacking when she visits other homes.

After getting into the car and returning to warmth, Haicheng suddenly realized, "Okay, of course, you deserve to be the lady boss."

"No mother." Sui Ran made a pun, not giving Haicheng a chance to bite the bullet, and called Siri to navigate to the nearest high-speed rail station, "Boss Huai said there are some things I can make decisions about."

Huaian believed in her, and she also believed in herself.

……

"Ten thousand steps back, no matter how bad it is, there is still Feng Lao sitting in charge. The old man's own territory, to what extent and which style of transformation he is willing to accept, depends on whether Mr. Ye can impress her in the end." Sui Ran said, "If Feng Lao If you don't like it, let her...you guys figure it out for yourself."

She spread her hands, "I don't have time later."

"Huh?" Huai'an raised his eyebrows.

"After the new year, I will go to Yanjing for training. First, Zhaoyue's, then Junting's. If everything goes well, I will go to several big factories. It will take two months in total. Zhaoyue's class schedule has been set. - Starts on a working day."

Haicheng repeatedly confirmed with her whether to leave Zhaoyue, because she was still uncertain about her intentions, and was hesitant to recommend her to the headquarters.

"As Mr. Hai said, thanks to you, the Lingang project successfully achieved its goal. However, Fu Lanzhou, Mr. Fu, fell into the sand this time, and planted it very hard. In the future, Haicheng will establish a project again, and there will be no high-quality customers like Yu'an. The stall is so big, it is too difficult for her to support it alone. The headquarters is just now considering the training of salesmen with outstanding performance to fill the management vacancies."

Relying on Yu'an alone to successfully win two projects and become the annual sales champion, Sui Ran felt that she had hitched a ride with Mr. Huai, and luck accounted for more than half of it, but Haicheng advised her not to be too modest, the results are obvious to all, anyone can do it It's not fake, what's hers is hers, don't give it away.

"I haven't decided whether I want to be a manager or not. I feel like I can't grasp it. I don't really want to manage people. But it's good to go to the training to learn more skills and gain insights." Sui Ran said, "The big deal is that I will follow The above said, resolutely inappropriate management. There are too many things. After all, I have more freedom in business, and most of the time I can control it by myself. And I am not used to being restrained, and I am not used to it. .”

Haicheng told her about the training and promotion plan on the high-speed train back, and the car was driven back by a substitute driver.

Sui Ran thought of what to say, Huai'an listened to her, and didn't speak when there was a pause, his eyes signaled her to continue.

"I can't tell if it's because I don't have any pursuits and ideals, or because I have so much pension money in my hand, it's inflated and drifting away." Sui Ran said frankly, "I can't do it and I don't want to do it with you. Mr. Feng’s career, and my current job can touch all walks of life, I think it’s good to continue to do business, and I can meet many nice people and interesting things.”

Troubling people or things are inevitable everywhere, but looking back, the harvest in all aspects outweighs the bad things encountered.

"According to your idea." Huai'an finally said so lightly, looking down at the tablet.

And she belongs to the hexagram of good luck.Seeing Mr. Huai concentrate on reading the report and making comments, Sui Ran kept silent.She thought that there would be opportunities in the future.

Mr. Huai will "bring it to doctrine", even if she doesn't come from behind and become a straight ball player, she can't be more boring than before.

Feelings need to be expressed, and she will.

"Sui Ran."

When Huai'an called her, Sui Ran's heart suddenly suddenly, Mr. Huai seldom - never in my memory - called her by her name directly.

Sui Ran raised his head and looked over, Huai'an clasped his hands and put them flat on his knees, his posture was serious and almost solemn, but his tone was straightforward.

She said: "You only meet me - only - me."

Sui Ran looked at her quietly for a while, then reached out to cover her eyes, and after two seconds, leaned over and kissed her lips.

"I know, so I love you."

The author has something to say:

Note: The English poem comes from Whitman's "To a Stranger"

There are two kinds of translations, one of which is widely spread on social platforms:

"I just think of you when I'm sitting alone, or waking up at night by myself.

I will wait and never doubt that I will meet you again.

I need to concentrate.Don't miss you. "

The other is from the Translation Publishing House:

"I'm not going to talk to you, when I sit alone and wake up in the night alone, I'll think of you,

I'll wait, I don't doubt I'll meet you again,

I'll be optimistic, I don't want to lose you. "

I personally prefer the first one.

Finally————————— It’s over, I love you all!

In addition, it is not sure whether there will be a side story.
