smoke like fire

When asked again and again by reporters, Zhao Kuanyi responded strangely.

He seriously denied the report about me and him, stating that we are just friends, and will not respond to such reports in the future.He will retain legal responsibility for any previous speculation.

This is the day after the company announced the father's illness and the company's situation.At that time, I saw this news on the TV in the corridor of the hospital, and stopped for a while.Looking at the picture, I was a little dazed, but I quickly walked forward and rushed back to the company.

After talking with Xu Chengcheng that day, I called Secretary Zhang.After arrangement, I joined the board of directors, and with the help of Uncle Chen and several other directors, I won the final vote and assumed the post of chairman.

Before that, I had already resigned from Chen Liren.Of course Chen Liren's expression was not very good, but he had to agree.

He said: "I can understand your situation, and I can't let you go."

I am beyond grateful for his understanding.Thank you again for the many years of reuse.If he hadn't used me boldly back then, I wouldn't be where I am today.However, facing my job vacancy, Chen Liren couldn't think of who would be suitable for me for a while, so he had to temporarily designate someone from another department to take over.

I remembered recommending him one from the department.That person has worked on several large projects with me and is also familiar with administrative aspects, so he should be competent.He expressed consideration.

When I left Chen Liren's office, I took the elevator downstairs.Stopping on the way, the door opened, and Ye Wenli was outside.He seemed taken aback before walking in.

The elevator door was closed and it was descending. Ye Wenli suddenly asked, "Are you planning to quit?"

I didn't speak, just nodded.He was also silent.After a while, he said, "What about the other thing? Have you thought about what to do?"

what to do?What else can I do?I think, my heart is more bitter.

I didn't speak until the floor he was going to arrived.

The matter of leaving was announced in the department, and everyone seemed to be stunned, and they probably started talking about it in private.I don't mind much.He is not in the mood, he has to hand over, and he has to deal with the other side of the company.

On the last day, I went to the office to clean up, and everyone in the department came to ask for lunch.Because I was rushing to leave, I politely declined, and they seemed to be embarrassing.Secretary Elin still presented a bouquet of flowers to express everyone's reluctance.

I smiled and took it.I didn't feel anything reluctance.

Father was fully awake on the sixth day after the operation.He couldn't speak yet.Another computed tomography scan confirmed that there was no bleeding, and the breathing tube was removed.However, the doctor said that there was still a small amount of edema in the brain tissue, so he was still kept in the intensive care center.

Ms. Xu has been coming every day, and she doesn't leave until after the interview time.Because I'm busy, I only go once every two or three days, and I don't have many chances to meet her than Xu Chengcheng.But even if you encounter it, there is nothing to say.Same with my father.Even if he can already understand, I don't say anything.Every time I look at his face that is almost unfamiliar due to illness and aging, I can't help feeling a sense of desolation.I'm always short.

In the meantime, I personally flew to New York to clarify the accounts of the overseas branch.Because of the deep involvement, it is difficult to solve, and the main problem is personnel.Compared with my father, I don't have the burden of old friendships, so I can make drastic changes, but it will take a lot of work.It can't be solved once or twice.

Time is spent on the go.

I always live in hotels.I did not go to Qiu Yisen.He did call.He first knew that I had taken over my father's business. In the past, he knew my thoughts on this aspect. On the phone, the words were so embarrassing.He may have read the clarification report, but he never mentioned Zhao Kuanyi.I also do not say.

During this period of time, I never called Zhao Kuanyi once.So is he.Since the night we said we left, we never called again.I think he wants to clarify, probably because of disappointment; it's fine if he doesn't call.It's best not to meet each other, otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to stick to my resolution.

But because I left in a hurry, I didn't pack it up, so I have to take some important things now.I hesitated for two days, and finally sent a message to Zhao Kuanyi.

After waiting for two days, Zhao Kuanyi still did not reply.

I am not surprised, but vaguely disappointed.I took it as if he had read the message.I thought he wouldn't want to see me, so I chose a normal day to go there.He must be in the company at this time.

When I opened the door, knowing that he would not be there, I couldn't help being cautious.Sure enough, there was no one there.Everything in the house remained the same.In fact, it was only a few days, but it seemed very strange.I couldn't help but look everywhere.There was a cigarette case on the coffee table in the living room, and there were still cigarette butts in the ashtray.I walked over and bent down to pick up the cigarette case.I held it in my hand and looked at it, and couldn't express how I felt for a while.

Suddenly heard the sound of unlocking the door.I paused and turned around.The door had been pushed open, and Zhao Kuanyi walked in.I froze, I didn't expect him to come back at this time.Because I think he must be avoided.

Seeing me, Zhao Kuanyi was also stunned, as if he didn't expect to see me either.No one speaks.

But in front of him, I have never been calm enough.

I hurriedly put the cigarette case back and blurted out, "Why did you come back?"

With this question, Zhao Kuanyi slightly raised his eyebrows.I was embarrassed for a while.This is nonsense.Of course he can come back anytime he wants.

Zhao Kuanyi said: "Come back and get a document."

Seeing him look at me, I hurriedly said: "I'll pack up." After thinking about it, I added: "I sent a message to tell you."

Zhao Kuanyi nodded silently.He turned back and closed the door, saying, "Oh, I remembered."

The tone was very light, and I was only full of bitterness.Before he turned around, I carried my back and said, "I'll leave when I pack up." Without waiting for him to speak, I hurried to the bedroom.

Of course, the appearance of the bedroom remains the same, the bed is a bed, the sofa is a sofa, and the cabinet is still a cabinet.The curtains were completely hung up, the skylight came in, and the room was brightly lit.

I was afraid that the longer I stayed, the more reluctant I would be, so I hastily dragged out the big suitcase, went to the dressing room to pick up the clothes, and packed them all in one go.He came out again and walked straight to the study.I put away some important ones.I turned to the house key that had been kept in the drawer, and after thinking about it, I took it and put it in my pocket.

It was quiet outside all the time, as if Zhao Kuanyi had never come back.But he is there.No matter how slow I was, I had to drag my suitcase out.

Zhao Kuanyi stood by the coffee table, holding the cigarette case just now, looking at it, as if in a daze.Probably smelling something, he raised his eyes, and it seemed that his expression was very calm.

I lowered my eyes slightly, paused for a while, and walked over.I fumbled for another key in my pocket.is the key here.I handed it to him, avoiding looking into his eyes, and said in a low voice, "I should return it to you."

Zhao Kuanyi remained silent, but stretched out his hand to pick up the key.He held it in his hand and looked at me again.I didn't dare to look at him, and turned to leave when I was suddenly pulled back.

I was stunned and couldn't move, Zhao Kuanyi had already bullied me and hugged me.Feeling his breath and temperature, I was in a trance for a moment, and I couldn't help but shake; I couldn't help it anymore, and hugged him with both hands.His hands came to touch my face and kissed my mouth.His tongue came in and wrapped around mine.I hugged him tighter and kissed him over and over again.

It was easy to separate, panting, he whispered at the corner of my mouth: "You don't have to do this, I have already—"

I went to kiss him and stop him from talking.He hugged me a little hard.I also don't want to let go of my hand, emotions are surging in my chest.Immediately want to respond to him - if you can ignore everything.I feel sad because reality is so powerless.Still have to separate anyway.

I pushed him away, choked up and speechless.

He didn't say a word, just looked at me.I turned around immediately.I dare not look at his expression now, and I am even more afraid of letting him see through my panic.

I dragged my luggage and left.
