Chapter 50
Rong Susu has the habit of wearing an eye mask when sleeping, but this was developed after her divorce. When she just got divorced, she cried all day long and suffered from insomnia all night long. She also saw a psychologist for this. Taking medicine does work, but relying on medicine alone is not a solution.
Once she tried an eye mask and found that it gave her a great sense of security, as if all distractions were blocked out, and she was able to fall asleep.
At eight o'clock in the morning, she was still in a sweet dream when she was awakened by the sound of tinkling.
It was early in the morning and the neighbors had started renovating. Rong Susu was in a bad mood when she woke up. She took off her eye mask and threw it on the bed, put on her slippers and went downstairs.
The aroma of breakfast came from the kitchen. She was also hungry, and it helped to calm her angry mood. Aunt Wang had already started working early in the morning, making juice and soy milk for her.
"Susu, you're awake. Are you awake because of the noise next door?" Auntie knew her temper and handed her a glass of juice to calm her down.
The auditions for the show have recently ended and the preliminaries have been recorded. The company has also started signing contracts with the contestants. Although Rong Susu does not have to do it herself, she still has to make decisions on major matters. She has been coming home late recently and was woken up early in the morning, so she is naturally in a bad mood.
"Auntie Wang, please call the property management and ask them to start work a little later." After drinking a glass of juice, which was sour, sweet, cool and refreshing, I felt much better.
"Susu, I've already gone over to ask. They're busy right now, moving some furniture in. The house next door has been rented out." Aunt Wang got up early and was curious about this kind of thing. As soon as she heard any movement, she went out and asked about it long ago.
Rong Susu thought about it and realized that this was true. The owner of the house next door had renovated it after it was sold, but their family was not from Licheng, so it had been empty. She didn't expect that it would be rented out.
Rong Susu had no interest in her new neighbor. After breakfast, she immediately got dressed and went to the company. As soon as she arrived at the office, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
Huang Yingying came in mysteriously, holding the Yida documents. "Mr. Rong, here's the list of contestants for the preliminaries."
Why show her the list? She didn't know these people. Rong Susu was a little confused, but she still reached out and took the folder.
She casually flipped through the resumes and saw that they were all talented people, but her eyes stopped on one person's resume.
"He Shurong is participating in the competition?!" This really surprised Rong Susu. Cheng Huaian clearly said that she was not allowed to participate.
Huang Yingying knew some inside information but felt helpless. She asked the program crew and found out that He Shurong had registered using her original name He Tiantian, and the staff didn't know her either.
Besides, most of these artists have aliases, especially those who have become famous, and not many people know their real names.
Rong Susu's attitude towards He Shurong's participation in the show has completely changed. Yan Jiayu is right, the more conflicts and contradictions there are, the more interesting it is. If He Shurong can bring traffic, why should she turn her away? Who has a grudge against money?
"Don't let Cheng Huaian and the others know about this. Be strict when signing the contract with her so as not to waste our little sister's creativity." When it comes to causing trouble, who can compare with He Shurong?
Huang Yingying understood what he meant. She and Rong Susu were now getting along better and better. She said that to some extent, Rong Susu and Cheng Huaian were the same type of people. They could use various means to maximize their benefits.
[Susu, let me show you what Shanghai looks like today.] This was a WeChat message from Yan Jiayu. Early in the morning, Shanghai seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds. It looked like the rain was going to be quite heavy.
"You said that good things will happen if you meet water. I wish you a successful investment today." He thought about it and sent a cute emoticon.
Looking at the boss's mouth corners that were harder to press than AK, Huang Yingying was a little confused. Is there something going on?
As soon as she came out of the office, she saw a professional woman dressed in a neutral style rushing into Rong Susu's office. She curiously asked Mengmeng who this was.
"This is the new game development director of Dawn Group!" Mengmeng stopped her. She didn't believe it when the other party showed her his business card, but she let him in immediately after seeing his ID card. The game development director is Mr. Cheng's confidant.
It turned out that she was Xie Yinhe. Huang Yingying had already asked her former colleagues about her. They heard that she was suppressed by the deputy director as soon as she arrived and she couldn't even raise her head, so she went to General Manager Cheng to make a scene.
But she is really capable. As soon as she made a fuss, those employees who were deliberately given low scores in the evaluation were sent back for re-examination. Now the wind direction of the game R&D center has changed again. Everyone says that General Manager Cheng personally supports Director Xie.
But their company and the game development center don’t have any intersection. Looking at Xie Yinhe’s expression, does it seem like he has a personal relationship with Rong Susu?
"Rong Susu, do you think Cheng Huaian is not normal?" Xie Yinhe urgently needs a face-to-face interview.
After she rejected Cheng Huaian's proposal that day, she thought she was going to be fired. Before she got off work, she received a call from the HR director.
She thought to herself that the efficiency was really fast. She thought she was being notified that she didn't need to come to work tomorrow, but she didn't expect that not only was she not fired, but all the managers whose performance ratings were rated A-minus were rejected for re-examination, and it was Cheng Huaian's own idea.
"I swear, I really rejected his inappropriate request, but why is he still standing on my side?" Xie Yinhe was puzzled and could only ask for help from Rong Susu who knew Cheng Huaian well.
Rong Susu crossed her arms and watched Xie Yinhe walking around like an ant on a hot pan. She was extremely calm. Cheng Huaian's trick was really mean. Xie Yinhe rejected him, but he agreed to Xie Yinhe's request. The next time he made a request, would Xie Yinhe still have the nerve to refuse?
A word of advice woke Xie Yinhe up, and it suddenly dawned on her. No wonder everyone in Xiaotai Lane said that Cheng Huaian could achieve great things and would rise to prominence sooner or later. The old people had eaten more salt than they had eaten rice, so they were quite good at judging people.
"Rong Susu, how have you been living with him these past few years? You've been firmly under his control." Although Xie Yinhe looked down on Cheng Huaian, he was also impressed by his methods. He looked at Rong Susu with some sympathy, believing in his heart that his friend must have been badly bullied by Cheng Huaian.
Rong Susu didn't care what despicable tricks this man would use. Before the divorce, her heart and eyes were full of Cheng Huaian. Now that they were divorced, forget it. All she wanted was money.
"How's the talk going with Fang Xianze? Have you signed the contract?" She started asking about official business. Cheng Huaian had personally told Fang Yaozhen that he wanted to make Fang Xianze the global spokesperson for Li'an Games.
A few days ago, when she was chatting with Fang Yaozhen, she mentioned this matter, but the other party said that no one had contacted them yet. He had already made the final promise, so why hadn't this matter been moved forward?
"Oh, stop talking about this. It was our powerful Deputy Director Zhang who actually dared to contradict Cheng Huaian and recommended another actress."
Xie Yinhe really admired Zhang Hao's courage. He actually dared to publicly refute Cheng Huaian at the regular director-level meeting, saying that the main players in gaming nowadays are young male users, and that they should find a female star with appeal.
"Then who did he recommend?" Rong Susu was quite curious.
"The current otaku goddess Zhang Qianni." Xie Yinhe replied.
Is it this Zhang Qianni again? Rong Susu was a little surprised. This person has been very cunning lately. Every step she takes is to get closer to the Liming Group. Her ambition is not small.
"At that time, although Cheng Huaian's face looked unhappy, he did not deny it immediately." Xie Yinhe said that after all, Zhang Hao was a founding employee who followed him, so he had to give him some face.
Haha, Xie Yinhe really didn't understand Cheng Huaian at all. Even his wife could be kicked out, let alone a founding employee? It was even scarier that he didn't explode on the spot. He must be holding back some big move.
"If Zhang Hao comes, your chance will come. Seize it." Rong Susu could only give this much advice. What Xie Yinhe should do most now is to support Fang Xianze and stand on the same front with Cheng Huaian. The rest is up to her to figure out on her own.
Today she was able to get off work on time, and she could watch the sunset in the evening on her way home. Rong Susu was in a good mood and called Yan Jiayu using the car's Bluetooth. When she heard that there was a lot of noise on his end, she asked him where he was.
"I have to go on a business trip for two days, which was a last-minute decision. I was just about to tell you." Yan Jiayu had just arrived at the airport. He had originally thought of telling Rong Susu later, but he didn't expect to receive her call before boarding the plane. They were really in sync.
For Yan Jiayu, business trips were even more frequent than meals. Rong Susu warned him, "You're too tired from traveling every day. Don't come this weekend. See you next week."
"What's so tiring about being able to see the person you love?" She could hear the other party's chuckle on the other end of the phone, and her mood felt as if a feather had gently brushed against her, making her feel a little itchy.
It seems that compared to Cheng Huaian, Yan Jiayu is much sweeter and provides much more emotional value.
I remember watching Slam Dunk when I was a child. My favorite character in girlhood was Rukawa Kaede, but it changed when I grew up. I like Sakuragi Hanamichi more. What's the use of Rukawa Kaede if he is good-looking but mute? Sakuragi Hanamichi, who responds to everything and follows him like a follower, is the perfect husband.
After all, she couldn't help but compare the two of them, and Yan Jiayu always won. Thinking of this, she was not only in a good mood, but also not anxious at all despite the traffic jam. However, this good mood disappeared when she saw the new neighbor.
"What are you doing next door?" Rong Susu couldn't believe her eyes. Could it be that the new neighbor was Cheng Huaian?
The weather was a little cold, so he was only wearing a black cashmere turtleneck sweater. He stood leisurely in the yard with his hands in his pockets, inspecting his new home.
Broad shoulders and narrow waist, it seems that this person has never forgotten to exercise. He might as well not look for other spokespersons and do it himself. Rong Susu's objective evaluation.
His usually cold face was replaced with a warm smile when he saw the visitor, but his words were somewhat shameless, "I think I'll sleep better if I'm back next to you."
In the middle of the night, Rong Susu tossed and turned, unable to sleep. When she thought of Cheng Huaian being next door to her, she scratched her ears and cheeks, her heart ached, and she even broke out in a sweat at night.
Through the window of the master bedroom bathroom, she could see that it was also pitch black across the street. Haha, you can sleep well, but I'm going to suffer from insomnia!
Now they are as close as they were in Xiaotai Lane, and they can walk to each other's house. Cheng Huaian is determined not to let him go.
Is it possible for him to disgust me, but I can't disgust him? Rong Susu stared fiercely at the window opposite and thought to herself, when Yan Jiayu comes back from her business trip, she will invite him to her home as a guest. Little guy, if you can't disgust me, leave.
In fact, Cheng Huaian is very particular about his bed. He doesn't like the first night when he arrives at a place because he can't sleep. So he always has a long private room in the city where he often travels on business.
However, he couldn't sleep tonight because of his surging heart. He rested his arms on the ceiling and stared at the ceiling in the dark. When he thought that Rong Susu was less than 50 meters away from him and their breathing was so close, he became extremely excited.
They were so close to each other in Xiaotai Lane before, and he even climbed over the terrace to look for her. He was so young and frivolous.
But they are not old now, they can completely walk the same path again. Thinking of this, Cheng Huaian was satisfied. He knew Rong Susu too well. Knowing yourself and your enemy, you can win a hundred battles. Rong Susu is just waiting to be defeated by him again.
