Wen Xianyue×Huo Lang
Love is wonderful, work is painful. Just one night apart, the situation is completely different.
Being Chen Xing's secretary is not easy. This is what Shen Yanshu thought as she sat at her workstation early in the morning. Looking at the work that Chen Xing threw at her, she was overwhelmed. This was not being a secretary, this was basically doing Chen Xing's work. Shen Yanshu now regretted it deeply. If she had known this would happen, she should have chosen to go to the branch office to learn, which would be more comfortable.
I turned my head and saw a pile of documents, which made me want to go crazy, so I picked up my phone to distract myself.
Shen Yanshu: exhausted.jpg
Su Bai: What's wrong?
Shen Yanshu: There is too much work, I don’t want to do it [crying]
Su Bai: I can't help you with that. If you want to change your mood, you can tell me.
Shen Yanshu's work may involve the company's confidential matters, which he cannot help with.
Shen Yanshu curled her lips, knowing that Su Bai would refuse, but she also gained something.
Shen Yanshu: I want to drink milk tea. I need sugar to replenish my energy.
Su Bai: How many people are there in your department?
Shen Yanshu: 11.
Su Bai: What would you like to drink?
As he spoke, he searched for the milk tea shop mini program that Shen Yanshu had mentioned before, took a screenshot of the long picture and sent it over.
Shen Yanshu circled the one he liked from the screenshots sent by Su Bai: 70% sugar, no ice.
Su Bai sent an emoticon package with the word "rabbit OK", which was obviously a stolen picture.
Su Bai: It will take about half an hour and I’ll put it at the front desk.
Shen Yanshu: Spreading Love.jpg
Shen Yanshu: But why did you steal my picture again?
Su Bai: People online say using cute emojis makes you seem more approachable. I don't know what kind of emojis you like, so I saved yours. Don't you like them?
Shen Yanshu: I like it, of course I like it, I like it very much.
Su Bai: I have to go to a meeting now. I will chat with you later.
Shen Yanshu: Cat waiting obediently.jpg
Half an hour later, the front desk called to say that a box of milk tea had arrived, and Shen Yanshu and his colleagues brought it up together.
The colleague said, "Thank you, my friend, for the treat."
Shen Yanshu said you're welcome, took a sip, and went to Shen Xing's studio with the documents in his arms.
"Come in."
Shen Yanshu pushed the door open and went in, placing the documents on Shen Xing's desk.
"These all need your signature. I have to discuss cooperation with Mr. Liu from Yike this afternoon. Do you need me to go with you?"
Shen Xing looked up at her and asked while working, "Well. Put the file here first and come get it later."
Seeing that Shen Yanshu didn't leave, Shen Xing raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"dad."
"Um?"
"Why did Uncle Sun go abroad?"
"Sun Yi?"
Sun Yi is an old man around Shen Xing. He has been with him for ten years. He was transferred to the branch company two years ago and has been in charge of the business there.
"Yes." Shen Yanshu pulled out a file from the pile, opened it, and asked, "You started doing this around the beginning of the year. I was still in school then, so I don't know much about it. Why did you do this?"
This branch holds a core patent for new energy and is profitable on paper. There is no need to acquire it with such a low shareholding ratio.
She also checked some official documents and financial data. In recent years, there have been quite a few technology mergers and acquisitions by state-owned enterprises. Generally, companies only carry out mergers and acquisitions in order to avoid operating risks or need state-owned enterprises to provide industrialization resources. This branch company does not have the problems of capital shortage and technology iteration. Secondly, it has complete production and sales channels. Even if it needs additional help, there is no need to sell it because of Shen's brand.
Therefore, whether it was Sun Yi's unexplained trip abroad or the merger and acquisition that occurred after the annual review, Shen Yanshu was curious.
"Want to know?"
Shen Yanshu looked inquiring and nodded.
Shen Xing felt somewhat relieved. After all, he had always been the one to force Shen Yanshu to come to work, but this time he was more proactive.
He said: "During the previous annual review, some accounting problems were found in this company."
He pulled out a financial report from his computer and explained to Shen Yanshu, "This account is very detailed. You can't tell unless you look carefully."
Shen Yanshu looked at the numbers above. After following Shen Xing for so long, he had become very fast at reading financial reports. "Is there a problem with the tax?"
Shen Xing hummed and continued, "After the annual review, Sun Yi was quiet for a while, so I planned to use technology to fill the gap. I thought he would stop, so I gave him a chance to correct his mistakes and let him handle it himself, but..."
"But he did something else?"
"He wanted to be a 'qualified' middleman, buy at a good price, and then transfer the assets."
Shen Yanshu was shocked when he heard this. This kind of interest transfer was done in front of his father.
"Doesn't he know this is against the law?"
"Of course he knows. I've worked with him for ten years, and I know him best." Chen Xing smiled bitterly and shook his head. In fact, he hated to see his friend like this. He thought he had treated him well, but greed is greedy. "The final approval was stuck at my level. I went to him, and he just said, 'You can't get a tiger cub without learning from it.'"
Remembering the quarrel that night, Shen Xing felt a little tired.
"He asked me to let him go abroad, and I agreed."
It can be considered as the last bit of kindness.
"Why would he do that?"
Chen Xing hesitated for a moment and said, "He raised an illegitimate child abroad. When his wife found out, she made him leave the house. He had no money and the child was seriously ill and hospitalized."
"So that's why he took such a risk?"
Shen Xing hummed softly, "If he asks me, I will lend him money."
"I remember one night you came back drunk and fell into Mom's arms." Shen Yanshu recalled that day when Chen Xing staggered back. It was the first time she saw Chen Xing drunk. "Dad, this was Uncle Sun's own choice. Don't be too sad."
Shen Xing said: "I'm not sad, just regretful."
Shen Xing calmed down his emotions and said, "Let's go to work."
"oh."
"Wait." Shen Xing called Shen Yanshu again, "Why don't you go to this company to train? Now is a good time. You can learn about approvals, subsequent restructuring and reforms, and work reports."
This is a good time?!
"No." Shen Yanshu refused decisively. Who would take over this hot potato now? "I believe in your ability and the ability of your employees. I won't get involved. Bye, I'm going to work."
He leaned at the door and said, "Hurry up and sign it, I'll take it." Then he slipped away.
Chen Xing looked at the afterimage of Shen Yanshu leaving, shook his head helplessly and smiled: "It's still the same personality. He is serious and does his work well, but he lacks initiative."
Shen Yanshu sat at his workstation and continued to work. Now that Shen Xing was there, the sky wouldn't fall. As for the future, if things didn't work out, he could just hire a team of professional managers to do the work. With the money in place, the talent would be in place. Why bother coming to work every day so hard?
Just when I was thinking about it, Shen Xing suddenly sent a message: Are you really not going to study?
Shen Yanshu: Dad, can’t I really hire a professional manager to help me manage it?
Shen Xing saw the message and closed his eyes.
"Then you have to learn the basics."
Shen Yanshu: I have learned a lot from you since I was a child.
Shen Xing: I can’t do this for long, you have to learn quickly.
Shen Yanshu: You just want to spend some time alone with your mother!
Chen Xing: If you know, please make some efforts for your mother and me in our retirement. Don’t always let me support you. I am about to retire.
Shen Yanshu: You are still young and can last another fifty years.
Chen Xing: Hurry up and prepare what we need for the afternoon.
Shen Yanshu: I’m already preparing.
After saying that, he turned off the sound on his phone to prevent himself from hearing Chen Xing's nagging again.
Later, she was busy and forgot about it. Her phone remained on silent. She also didn't answer the call from Wen Xianyue. When they finished discussing the cooperation and came out, Shen Yanshu called back, but the phone was turned off.
The missed call showed that it was from half an hour ago, and I was busy at that time.
Shen Yanshu called two more times but it was still the same. She sent another message but no one replied. Suddenly, bad memories emerged in Shen Yanshu's mind. She was worried that something had happened to Wen Xianyue, so she called Wen Zhaoyan again.
"Brother Zhao Yan, is Yueyue with you?"
She rarely called Wen Zhaoyan, so when the other party heard her voice, she didn't recognize it for a moment. Then the other party said, "She's not here with me, what's wrong?"
"She called me twice, but my phone was on silent and I didn't answer. When I called back, it was turned off. I was worried that something had happened to her."
Hearing Shen Yanshu say this, Wen Zhaoyan's tone suddenly became tense, but he still remained calm: "I'll contact her."
"If you get in touch, let me know."
"The same to you."
Shen Yanshu hung up the phone and thought about where Wen Xianyue would go, feeling more and more uneasy.
Wen Xianyue was lost as a child. Wen Zhaoyan was still serving in the army at the time, and Wen Xianyue disappeared two days after completing a mission. Fearing retaliation, her family frantically searched for her all afternoon before finally finding her dusty body in a corner. Wen Zhaoyan then retired from the army and entered politics.
Shen Yanshu didn't dare to think about it too much. Although the possibility was extremely small, she couldn't help but think of the worst, and she felt cold all over.
After Shen Xing greeted Mr. Liu, he walked over and saw Shen Yanshu’s nervous look and asked, “What’s wrong?”
"Yueyue called me, but I didn't answer. Now my phone is turned off."
Chen Xing held Shen Yanshu's trembling hand and said, "Xianyue is not a reckless person. Calm down and think about where she usually goes. Maybe you can find her. Maybe her phone is just out of battery. Don't think too much."
"Those places..." Shen Yanshu suddenly remembered that Wen Xianyue had said she was going to her house. "Maybe they'll go to my house. I'll go back and take a look."
"I'll take you there."
Just as I got in the car, Wen Zhaoyan called and said, "I can't reach her either. She won't run around."
"Brother Zhao Yan, I'm planning to go home and see her now. She doesn't have many places to go in Ningcheng, so she might come to my house to find me."
"Xiaoshu, I found out something."
"What?"
"Xiaoyue applied to teach in rural areas of Northwest China."
"What?! Why would she go?"
"I don't know. I haven't found any information about her transportation. She should still be in Ningcheng."
"Okay, I'll be home soon. Let me take a look and then call you."
As soon as she got off the car, Shen Yanshu rushed to the elevator, panicking as if she was about to jump out. If Wen Xianyue wasn't there, she wouldn't know where to look for her.
The moment the elevator opened, Shen Yanshu's legs suddenly gave way, and she felt like she was about to fall. Wen Xianyue sat at her door, looking a little sad.
She was gasping for breath, her hands on the wall, feeling like she was going to faint in the next second.
She wanted to speak, but found that her voice was too hoarse to make any sound: "Yueyue."
Hearing her voice, Wen Xianyue turned around and asked, "Why are you back?"
She stepped forward to support Shen Yanshu. Her legs were numb from sitting for too long.
"Why didn't you answer my call?" Shen Yanshu's eyes were red. He hugged Wen Xianyue and was still trembling. "I thought something happened to you."
Her voice choked: "What would I do if something happened to you? I didn't even answer the call you made to me."
Wen Xianyue patted her on the back and comforted her, "I'm fine, don't cry, my phone just ran out of battery."
"Really?" Shen Yanshu blinked.
Wen Xianyue wiped her tears and said, "Really."
"I was really scared to death." She started to cry again, and she was really scared when she thought about it.
"It's okay, don't be afraid."
