Are you messing with me?
On the way back, Su Bai seemed like a different person. Su Bai was not talkative before, but the atmosphere was not right today. Shen Yanshu didn't know what had happened to make Su Bai unhappy.
So he asked, "Why did you come to see me so late just now?"
Shen Yanshu looked at him driving seriously. He seemed to be thinner and a little tired. The lights inside the car cast a shadow and it was difficult to tell his emotions.
"I chatted with a few partners." Su Bai said.
"You look unhappy." Shen Yanshu tilted his head and looked at him, "Did someone make you angry?"
"If so, will you help me vent my anger?"
Su Bai's voice was a little hoarse. He had actually gone to see Shen Yanshu a long time ago. Shen Yanshu had said that she didn't like to stay in such occasions for a long time. He had no interest in socializing and just wanted to send her home early so that he could apologize to her for his hesitation. He knew that it was impolite to make a girl wait until he understood his feelings. He couldn't bear to see Shen Yanshu sad, even if it was himself. He thought of many ways to apologize and considered agreeing to all of Shen Yanshu's requests.
Even if she says she wants to be together, it's okay.
but……
never mind.
Shen Yanshu listened to his tone, which sounded like a question and a coquettish tone. She narrowed her eyes and smiled at him, "Of course."
"...Forget it." Su Bai said, "It's not a big deal."
"Okay." Shen Yanshu sat up straight.
Su Bai's personality doesn't require her to help him vent his anger.
For a long time, the car was silent. Su Bai looked at Shen Yanshu from the corner of his eye. His suit jacket was still covering her. He spoke softly, thinking that she had fallen asleep and would not hear: "When you fall in love, do you just want to fall in love, or do you think about the future?"
"I just want to date. After all, whether or not we're suitable for marriage is another matter." Shen Yanshu's voice sounded, a little tired. "Why do you ask that suddenly?"
Su Bai didn't expect that she was still awake, and he didn't expect that Shen Yanshu understood what he was asking. He suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Was Shen Yanshu also uncomfortable when he was silent?
"It just suddenly occurred to me that someone at the party asked me this."
Shen Yanshu sat up, his tone a little anxious: "Someone introduced you to someone? You said you would like me."
"No, she didn't say she was introducing someone." Su Bai's vision was blocked. The red traffic light in front of him was flashing. He looked at the number on it counting down. "Well, what I told you hasn't changed."
"That's good." Shen Yanshu felt happier. "We'll take it slow, but you can't run away first."
"Okay." Su Bai said, "I have to start work tomorrow, go home and go to bed early."
"Will there be a goodnight voice message tonight?" Shen Yanshu asked.
The car stopped at the door of Shen Yanshu's house. She registered Su Bai's information and asked the security guard not to stop him in the future. After a few minutes, Su Bai took her downstairs.
Seeing that they were about to get off the bus, Su Bai did not answer. Shen Yanshu poked his arm and looked at him with a coquettish look.
Su Bai's heart softened after being looked at, and he said, "Yes."
Shen Yanshu got out of the car contentedly and waved goodbye to Su Bai.
Su Bai got out of the car and watched Shen Yanshu disappear in the corridor. He looked at the lights on each floor, counting them one by one until he reached the 12th floor. His gaze was faster than Shen Yanshu's elevator. He had been watching for a long time before Shen Yanshu arrived.
The next morning, he received flowers from Shen Yanshu again. He trimmed them and put them in a vase, and put the cards in a special storage book, flipping through them one by one. Thinking of the words he heard outside the door last night, he couldn't tell which one was true and which one was false. He didn't know who to ask for help. He opened his mobile phone and saw his mother's number, but she probably couldn't help either.
He rubbed his brows, heard a knock on the door, and shouted, "Come in."
Guan Cheng looked at the listless Su Bai, placed the documents on his desk, and asked with concern, "Didn't you sleep well last night?"
"A little bit." Su Bai flipped through the documents and signed.
Guan Cheng said, "Do you need to buy something to help you sleep?"
"No need." Seeing that Guan Cheng had no intention of leaving, Su Bai asked, "Is there anything else?"
Guan Cheng hesitated and said, "I don't know whether I should tell you or not."
"speak."
"It's that Shen's and Jiang's branches are cooperating."
"who?"
"Ms. Shen is collaborating on a project that Jiang Heming is in charge of," Guan Cheng said quickly.
Su Bai crossed his fingers, thinking of Jiang Heming, his face darkened: "I know this, and then what?"
“I heard that Jiang’s factory has some problems.” Guan Cheng said, “Would you like to help Miss Shen deal with it?”
"She can handle it herself." Su Bai said.
Guan Cheng uttered an "oh" and turned to walk out, but was stopped by Su Bai again: "I know about their cooperation. The construction period is almost up. If there is a problem at this time, it will definitely be delayed, and the loss will be considerable."
"That's right, and Ningcheng can't find another company more cost-effective than Jiang's." Guan Cheng said, "Young Master Jiang is cooperating with Miss Shen at almost no profit."
Su Bai said without any emotion: "He is willing to spend money."
"After all, Shen's is a big company. I heard that Young Master Jiang is fighting for the equity of Jiang's company. Compared with the help from Shen's company, that little money is really rare." Guan Cheng said.
He understood Guan Cheng's implication, and Shen Yanshu naturally understood it as well. But these were two different things. Shen Yanshu had trusted Jiang Heming, saying that Jiang Heming might covet her interests, but would not harm her.
Su Bai lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "You handle it. Find a way to send the alternative factory to her."
“Should Miss Shen know?”
"Just let her know the first half." Su Bai said.
They only talked about how it went bad, not the reasons and remedies. Guan Cheng couldn't believe his ears and confirmed it again, "Are you sure it's just the first half?"
"yes."
Guan Cheng was also full of mud when he went out. He didn't know what happened to these two people. One of them was sending flowers continuously, and the other one was helping, but they were so bitter and resentful. Are they just acting?
But you have to do what your boss says.
Guan Cheng acted quickly. Three days later, Jiang Heming, the deputy manager of Jiang's office, received a notice of suspension and inspection from the relevant department. He was so angry that he got angry in the office.
Shen Yanshu also received a copy of the same message, and some extra ones.
"It was President Su who did it."
Shen Yanshu looked at the documents in his hand, unable to believe his ears. With the deadline approaching and the sudden report, the factory would be shut down for at least a month. By the time the machines were running, the daylilies would have wilted.
****, Shen Yanshu clenched the documents in his hand, crumpled them into a ball, and threw them against the wall.
The key point is that Su Bai did not hide what he did, and he made it clear to her what he was going to do! She picked up her phone and wanted to call Su Bai to ask him what he meant.
But she didn't.
Now wasn't the time to get angry; remediation was paramount. She had someone rescreen several factories, contacting them one by one. Many of them politely declined the offer, as the deadline was tight and the quality was crucial. By the time she'd finished working for the last two, it was already time to get off work.
She calmed down, made the call, and explained the situation to the other party. Although she was a little hesitant, she did not refuse directly. Instead, she asked to discuss it in detail the next day. It was difficult to confirm it.
We had to redefine the procedures, contracts, and so on, and all the work that had been done previously had to be done again, but the boss was cooperative and the process went very quickly.
After working non-stop for a few days, Shen Yanshu finally had some free time to think about the mastermind behind the scenes. She had ignored Su Bai for the past few days, and she was furious when she saw their conversation lingering on Su Bai saying where he had received the flowers.
She liked Su Bai, but she didn't need to tolerate Su Bai's dishonest behavior. Public is public, private is private. She looked at the file on the computer, and an idea came to her mind.
After she finished, she received a message from Su Bai.
Su Bai: Are you off work?
Shen Yanshu felt that she couldn't understand Su Bai. She had let him down in the past. He said to take it slow, so he took it slow. He said no, so he didn't. He held her in his hands, coaxed her, and loved her. What else did he want!
Shen Yanshu: It’s time to get off work.
Su Bai: Are you busy these days?
Loading.
Shen Yanshu: Busy.
Shen Yanshu turned off his phone and did not reply to Su Bai's subsequent message.
She felt like she was going to explode if she saw Su Bai again. She really wanted to beat someone up. She went downstairs with a dark face and drove home.
"Why did you go home alone?" Shen Xing sent a message.
"Dad, I need to calm down by myself, so I won't go home." Shen Xing knew about her situation, but she asked Shen Xing not to interfere. She was not a person who would tolerate it. Su Bai clearly made her uncomfortable, and she would not let Su Bai feel comfortable.
"Okay, but don't do anything rash. If you really can't, Dad will help you vent your anger." Chen Xing knew that his child was not the type to swallow her anger, and he was afraid that she would do something irreversible.
"I understand. Don't tell mom too much when you get home. I know what's going on." Shen Yanshu said.
"I know. When did I ever betray you for what you did?" Thinking back to when Shen Yanshu was in elementary school, he beat up a boy and called his parents, and it was Shen Xing who went there. He was not afraid of anything except Ming Wan finding out.
"Um."
"Don't ride your motorcycle on the highway, do you hear me?" Shen Xing's tone became stronger. Ever since Shen Yanshu learned to ride a motorcycle, this has been his biggest headache.
It would have been fine if Shen Xing hadn't said it, but after he finished speaking, he was actually giving Shen Yanshu some inspiration.
Shen Yanshu hung up the phone, took out the motorcycle keys from the car, and rode out of the garage to the ring road.
She really couldn't help it and needed to vent her temper. If she went home now, she might destroy the house.
The anger that had been pent up for several days, the fatigue from overtime work, and the humility all came to her mind as the instrument kept speeding up. She had never felt so uncomfortable before. The most infuriating thing was that Su Bai did it and even let her know.
What does he want to express?!
She was trying to express that she saw you were doing pretty well and wanted to give you some obstacles, or that she was unhappy with you working with your ex-boyfriend. But it didn't matter. She had explained everything that needed to be explained. There was nothing between her and Jiang Heming, so what else could she ask for?
Not knowing where he was riding to, Shen Yanshu slowly calmed down and parked the bike by the roadside. The sea in Ningcheng at night seemed endless, pitch black, and the waves kept surging towards the shore and then receding.
After a while of wind blowing, Shen Yanshu calmed down completely. Su Bai was not a person who acted recklessly. There must be a reason. There must be one. And with Su Bai's methods, she would not find out at all. So why?
She was so busy being angry that she didn't even think about investigating the matter. It would take a while to get to the bottom of Jiang Heming's case. The process was just so slow, but there was nothing she could do. She would only know the truth after the investigation.
She rubbed her brows. Her mind was in a mess from working overtime continuously, and she really didn't have the energy to think anymore.
