Chapter 158: People need friends
The next day, Deng Xiuzhen did not go to the store, but sent Wenxin to school.
Wen Xin was somewhat happy, but also reserved, and kept glancing at Deng Xiuzhen's face from time to time along the way.
Deng Xiuzhen felt it and felt a little uncomfortable, but she didn't show it. She kept smiling and sent Wenxin to school.
I fell on the way back and felt even more depressed.
After returning home, I have been in a bad mood. I have a lot of questions in my heart, but there is no one to talk to and nowhere to ask. I feel very tired.
Ever since I became rich, I think everyone is after my money, and no matter who approaches me, I think they have ulterior motives.
She suddenly realized that she really didn't have any close friends and that she had never completely trusted anyone.
Even towards Zhao Shuliang and Fang Mei, he only trusted them 40% and remained on guard against them 60%.
I feel 70% safe in Tan Yanlin, but only 30% trust him.
The only one who was 90% trusting and not on guard was Wen Jing.
But Wenjing was just a child, there were some things she couldn't tell Wenjing. There were some things that Wenjing wouldn't understand even if she told her.
The generation gap exists objectively.
I was in a bad mood and had nothing to do, so I rummaged through the drawers at home.
Suddenly a cell phone rolled out. It was given to her by Zheng Ying. It had run out of battery because it had not been used or taken care of.
Deng Xiuzhen charged her phone and made a call.
Zheng Ying was in a meeting when the phone suddenly rang. She found out it was Deng Xiuzhen calling.
Her heart tightened, as she had once told her: unless it was something very important, don't call or contact her.
Deng Xiuzhen never called her or looked for her.
A sudden call must have happened!
She hurriedly asked her assistant to continue the meeting and she hurried back to the office.
"Tell me, am I also selfish? Am I the same as others?" Zheng Ying heard these words as soon as she answered the phone.
She intuitively felt that Deng Xiuzhen might have suffered some kind of blow.
But is this a big deal? Is it worth making a phone call?
Zheng Ying was a little impatient. Today's meeting was very important.
She was about to hang up when she heard Deng Xiuzhen say, "I don't have any friends. I can't find anyone to talk to."
She was moved, and instead of hanging up the phone, she responded, "Well, I'm listening."
Deng Xiuzhen talked on and on, and Zheng Ying listened quietly.
It took more than an hour before Deng Xiuzhen stopped.
After making sure that Deng Xiuzhen was tired and didn't want to talk anymore, Zheng Ying spoke up: "Everything in this world is a choice made after weighing the pros and cons. This statement is not wrong, but the nature is different.
But human nature is selfish. Some people actively hurt others for their own benefit.
Some people choose to protect themselves defensively, and the selfishness of actively harming others and the selfishness of passively choosing to protect themselves are definitely different.
If a person cannot even protect and defend himself, then he is either a fool, a person without self-respect, or a short-lived person.
As for your relationship with your ex-husband, I can’t comment, but I think he treats you very well now and is really changing.
And I think that his change is largely due to your persistence and your decisiveness in giving up.
The way people get along with each other is to accommodate each other and test each other.
If you had been tolerant at the beginning, he would most likely have gone further and further, and might even never realize his mistake.
But you chose to give up without hesitation, so he knew that your bottom line could not be touched, and it also made him re-evaluate his actions..."
After the conversation, both of them felt much better and less stressed, and they both felt that the sky outside the window was particularly bright.
The two had the same understanding: people need friends.
Zheng Ying suddenly came up with an idea to change her identity and try to live a different life, and she wanted Deng Xiuzhen's help with this idea.
Deng Xiuzhen was surprised at first. What did Zheng Ying need her help with?
He immediately agreed. No matter what the help was, he would help if he could. If he couldn't help, Zheng Ying probably wouldn't mind.
Liu Qing and Hu Yue were arrested by the police station, Deng Xiuzhen did not come to work, and Zhu Shanshan was the only employee left in the store. Tan Yanlin had no time to go out to discuss business, and was busy like a top in the store.
He was thinking of hiring two people, and there were also people looking for jobs, but because of Liu Qing and Hu Yue's incident, he didn't dare to hire them casually. He planned to wait for Deng Xiuzhen to come to work and let her recruit people.
But there are only two of us looking after the store today, and we are so busy. I don’t know if Deng Xiuzhen will come this afternoon. Should I give her a call to ask?
"Boss, are you hiring?" Tan Yanlin was busy when he suddenly heard someone ask loudly.
Tan Yanlin looked up and saw the man was dressed simply, about 30 years old, with an honest face. He thought he was okay and quickly replied, "We're hiring. Come and try tomorrow."
"Ex-husband!" Zheng Ying shouted loudly.
"Ah?" The call of "ex-husband" made Tan Yanlin look up subconsciously. She found that she had some impression of the person in front of her, but she couldn't remember who he was.
"Ex-husband, I'm Sister Xiuzhen's friend, don't you remember me?" Zheng Ying asked as she came closer.
When he heard that it was Deng Xiuzhen's friend, Tan Yanlin became much more enthusiastic: "Oh, you are Xiuzhen's friend, what's your name? Are you here to look for a job?"
"My name is Chen Yin. I saw you at Sister Xiuzhen's house last time. Are you hiring in your store? If so, let me come. I'm good at my job." Zheng Ying gave herself another name.
"Chen Yin, why don't you come this afternoon? Xiuzhen has to decide on the store's recruitment." Tan Yanlin remembered who Zheng Ying was, but Deng Xiuzhen called her Zheng Ying at the beginning. He thought it was Chen Yin.
"You are so busy now, let me help you first." Zheng Ying said and started to work.
After finishing one section, the three of them stopped. Qin Yanlin went out and secretly called Deng Xiuzhen, telling her: Come over if you have time, because her friend Chen Yin is here and wants to work in the store.
"Zheng Ying? She works in the store?" Deng Xiuzhen was shocked by the news.
Tan Yanlin heard that Deng Xiuzhen's tone was not right and thought that Deng Xiuzhen didn't like Chen Yin coming to the store.
Although Deng Xiuzhen and Chen Yin seemed to have a good relationship that day.
But there are many plastic relatives, and plastic sisters are everywhere.
So I quickly said, "If you don't want her to come, I'll let her go right away and just pretend you don't know about this."
"No, just let her do it. I'll come to the store right away!" Deng Xiuzhen hung up the phone and hurried to the store.
She agreed to help Zheng Ying and spoke her heart out to her when she was losing control of her emotions.
But I just think I can say these words to Zheng Ying, because given Zheng Ying's conditions and personality, she doesn't care about my money and doesn't bother to laugh at me.
But how could she come to work in the store? In his heart, he was actually afraid of her. If he had to stay with her every day, wouldn't he be scared to death?
Deng Xiuzhen was anxious and afraid, so she walked very fast.
