2. Desire for control
◎Seventeen missed calls◎
The speeding car disappeared around the corner.
Jiang Suiyun picked up the business card. It was clearly made of pure black cardboard, and she thought there were a few big words written on it: "Unemployment Compensation".
He Linchuan got engaged and she lost her job.
The gold-plated font gleamed in the light, and there was nothing else except a string of phone numbers and names.
It's so casual.
A very textured business card.
Jiang Suiyun threw it into the trash can accurately.
She clutched her heart.
Heartbroken.
I feel sorry for her 50 million.
But let alone 50 million, she couldn't even get 100 million.
What's the point of threatening her?
Go and threaten He Linchuan.
Accepting the 50 million did confirm her reputation as a materialist, but it also offended people. Inexplicably, her sixth sense told her that if He Linchuan found out, he would definitely kill her.
The fluttering little deer instantly became obedient.
How dare you ask for it? Is she going to suffer?
But thinking of the warning look in He Chifeng's eyes when he left... he didn't seem like someone who was easy to talk to.
It's really difficult to deal with one or two of them. If possible, she really wants to slap everyone equally. This is a precarious mental state.
Jiang Suiyun's mind was full of thoughts, so much so that when he lay down on the bed after taking a shower and absentmindedly clicked on the novel he was reading, he remembered that he had not sent any harassing messages to He Linchuan today.
She sat up suddenly and lay down again.
Finally, I opened the chat history with Shen Lan and decided to consolidate the knowledge points again.
What the hell: [Didn't you say your partner is a bit controlling? Then give him a taste of his own medicine.]
[Generally, people with a strong desire for control don't want to find a partner who is even more controlling than them.]
Jiang Suiyun read these words and found them to make more and more sense.
She and Shen Lan were roommates in college and had a good relationship, but Shen Lan's family was rich, so after enduring the compulsory living on campus during her freshman year, she moved out.
Later, she joined Shengrong and met Chen Lan by chance, only to find out that she was He Linchuan's cousin.
Chen Lan didn't know that the 'object' Jiang Suiyun was talking about was her cousin.
Giving her advice quite enthusiastically.
What the hell: [If you really can't learn this pathological need for control, then use hot violence on him, constantly being close to him until he's breathless, then bombarding him with messages, preferably sharing mostly worthless content, severely squeezing into his personal time. Finally, kidnap him in the name of love, giving to him with self-indulgent devotion, and then get angry if he doesn't appreciate it.]
[With just this one dragon coming down, that man would definitely run away with his bag.]
Jiang Suiyun weighed every word carefully. She trusted Shen Lan very much, not only because she was He Linchuan's cousin and should be familiar with people like He Linchuan, but also because the number of exes Shen Lan had dated was comparable to that of a certain Duoduo.
She opened the little black book.
Search, copy, paste, send.
Done in one go.
Melancholy Custard Bun: [Honey, what are you doing? Are you asleep? How was your sleep? It's so sad that I can't see you all the time. Can you take a picture of you sleeping and show it to me? You didn't reply to my message? Do you still love me today?]
【Pay attention to me, why didn’t you reply my message? Didn’t you see it?】
"Why are you so cold? Are you sleeping with another woman? Don't you love me anymore?"
[Ten seconds have passed, and you haven't replied to my message yet. Do you no longer love me? I care about you so much, but you don't appreciate it at all. I'm so disappointed.]
【……】
…
Looking at the screen full of green, Jiang Suiyun felt deeply that her professional ethics as a canary had been completely forgotten. After all, a sensible canary would never disturb the sponsor at an inappropriate time.
She had heard from Assistant Chen before that what He Linchuan hated most were people who lacked tact, and he was so picky that he fired ten assistants in three months.
Jiang Suiyun felt relieved, put down his phone and fell into a good sleep.
But she didn't expect to receive the news when she went to the company the next day.
He Linchuan is on a business trip.
There are some problems in the business connection between the company and its partners in Country M.
The situation was urgent, so I only brought Chen Zhu with me.
Jiang Suiyun learned the news from another secretary, Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu looked surprised, but there was a hint of doubt in his words: "Wasn't the Longkan Bay project already agreed upon? Could it be that Lien Group wants to break the contract?"
As soon as this statement was made, it was denied by everyone. After all, the huge initial investment of the two companies was obvious to all.
If we break the contract now, wouldn’t that be crazy?
Jiang Suiyun quietly blended into the gossiping crowd.
She would not miss any melon, let alone He Linchuan's.
Another colleague smiled mysteriously at the crowd gathered around to eat melons, "I have inside information. My boyfriend works at the Ye Group next door, and he told me yesterday..."
She paused halfway through her sentence.
"Hurry up and tell me."
"Don't keep me in suspense."
"Okay, okay, keep your voice down. He said that the Ye Group also wants to invest in the Longkan Bay development project and get a piece of the action."
"Ah? Is this true?"
Some people didn't quite believe it. After all, most people here had worked under He Linchuan, and they had seen how the big boss behaved in the business world.
He was ruthless and decisive, and his methods were fierce. He would never give up even a cent of profit, let alone such a big project. He was almost in his pocket, so how could he let anyone interfere?
My colleague looked around at everyone, shook his head, and had an expression of 'you guys are really surprised by something you haven't seen before'.
He casually dropped another bombshell: "You guys don't know this, right? If it were anyone else, Mr. He wouldn't have given in. But Mr. He is about to marry the daughter of the Ye Group, so it's naturally different."
As soon as these words were spoken, some people exclaimed in surprise, thinking that this was the only explanation that made sense.
But many people think it is a rumor.
Only Jiang Suiyun sighed in his heart that he had thrown away his business card too early.
The main reason was that she didn't expect that the two sides would reach an agreement so quickly.
It’s so fast.
Thinking of the message she sent yesterday that fell on deaf ears, she felt that this was probably true. He Linchuan would definitely have told her in advance when he was on a business trip.
But now I don’t tell her a word. Isn’t this a sign of boredom?
Jiang Suiyun felt that he had discovered the truth.
She opened the little black book, wanting to press on and send some more messages.
It turned out that she had forgotten to turn off the Do Not Disturb function. No wonder her phone didn’t send her any novel updates this morning.
I have a bad feeling in my heart.
Sure enough, it opened.
WeChat notification sounds followed one after another.
Didi Didi——
00:36: [Business trip to Country M, about three days, at the latest a week.]
00:50: [There are no other women, so it’s not convenient to take sleeping photos now. I’ll show them to you later.]
08:20: [I've asked the butler to deliver all the things. Besides the things I brought earlier, there's also a sapphire bracelet. Remember to wear it.]
08:21: [Please ask a master to bless you, it can improve your luck, especially your financial luck. ]
…
Jiang Suiyun's gaze lingered on these words for a moment. His eyes lit up at first, but then he became a little confused. Can sapphires also be consecrated?
The company required clocking in at nine o'clock, and He Linchuan probably saw that she didn't reply to the message, so he called her several more times around ten o'clock.
Now all it shows is [Missed Calls].
Seventeen in total.
It makes one's scalp tingle.
The last message was just sent.
10:26: [Reply.]
Five minutes later.
10:31: [When you come back this time, you move in with me. ]
After reading all the news, Jiang Suiyun knew without a doubt that He Linchuan must be in a very bad mood at the moment.
Looking at the screen full of messages, she suddenly became a little skeptical. Compared to He Linchuan, could her hot violence really work?
She hurriedly replied to the message to explain, fearing that if she was late, the next call would come.
Fortunately, there was no movement on the other side, probably they were busy.
After waiting for ten minutes, there was still no reply.
Seeing the last sentence 'When you come back this time, you move in and live with me', Jiang Suiyun really refused it harshly.
She didn't want to lose her private space, the freedom to order takeout, the freedom to commute to work, and the freedom to stay up late. After moving there, He Linchuan would definitely force her to quit ordering takeout and force her to work with him. As for staying up late...it would probably be two of them doing it together.
But this wasn't the happy night she had in mind.
She just wanted to stay up late and read novels.
Jiang Suiyun was crying in his heart.
So much so that she didn't go to the company cafeteria for lunch today, but instead angrily ordered two luxurious takeouts.
I met Xiao Liu on the way and happened to inform her that she had a business dinner to attend tonight.
Let her not forget it.
Jiang Suiyun was confused.
She knew about this activity, but when was she on the list? How come she didn't know?
But soon, she understood.
"Xiao Jiang, what a coincidence." The man with a beer belly bared his yellow teeth in an extremely ugly smile, "Let's eat."
Jiang Suiyun didn't want to pay any attention to him and walked around the pig.
As a result, he was stopped.
The man is the marketing manager who was transferred from the branch company in the past two days.
As soon as he arrived, he hinted in the company's small group that he was a relative and had a strong background.
He also secretly harassed female employees in the company.
They took advantage of the fact that those young girls had just entered the society and had finally managed to get into big companies, so they didn't dare to make a big deal out of it.
I'm also afraid that he really has a backer.
Coincidentally, the secretariat's office was on the same floor as theirs.
The two had only met twice in total, one of which was during a company team-building event. Jiang Suiyun arrived late and politely smiled and apologized to everyone.
This person seems to have peach blossom madness.
Starting from zero frame, he asked Jiang Suiyun if he was interested in him? Otherwise, why was he smiling in his direction?
"Xiao Jiang, you young people are full of energy, always smiling."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Suiyun's naturally smiling lips could no longer smile.
Tang Yaowen didn't feel disliked at all. After some so-called 'small talk', he finally got to the point: "Xiao Liu just told you, I specifically added your name to today's business dinner. I've refused so many people who wanted to go. You're different from others. You don't have to ask for anything in my presence."
This business dinner was hosted by Hengxing United Shengrong, and it was of great value. Indeed, many people wanted to go to the banquet to make more connections. Of course, there were also many good-looking men and women who wanted to climb up the social ladder.
Tang Yaowen smiled with a worthless look on his face, as if he felt that he had given Jiang Suiyun a huge benefit, and stretched out his claws to touch her hand.
"I know you were shy before and didn't want to admit that you liked me, but it doesn't matter. I just like you, Xiao Jiang..."
Tang Yaowen felt that he was too affectionate. He was shocked by Jiang Suiyun's beauty when he saw her for the first time when he entered the company, and it just so happened that the person opposite also liked him.
These few words left Jiang Suiyun speechless.
It’s true, if you smile often, you will become a cheap man naturally.
These days, even smiling lips are not acceptable.
