Chapter 298: How Deep the Road is
He Lushen came to the capital on a business trip. The Huaguang Building of Huaguang Media's capital branch is located in the most prosperous place in the city center. It is towering and very imposing. When Yu Zhan arrived by car, He Lushen was already standing at the door of the building to greet him.
The senior executives of the branch accompanied He Lushen and waited for him.
In fact, when He Lushen was chatting with Yu Zhan on WeChat just now, he was in a meeting. He did not forget to grab Yu Zhan's red envelope during the meeting. Only he could do that.
After the meeting, several senior executives still wanted to discuss something with He Lushen, but He Lushen made a gesture to stop them.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow. My friend will be here soon. Nothing is more important than him!"
Everyone in Huaguang Media knows that their CEO He has a peculiar personality, is independent and often does things unconventionally, and they are used to it.
But everyone was still curious about who his friend was and why he valued him so much! So when Yu Zhan got out of the car, he saw a row of elites in suits saluting him, as if he was also their leader.
It’s hard to describe what Yu Zhan is feeling in his heart.
Last time in Shanghai, He Lushen also made such a big fuss and asked Cheng Sheng to pick him up at the airport in a Rolls-Royce. At that time, the people at the airport looked at him like a gorilla, just like they do now.
...
...
Yu Zhan returned to the car and sat in the driver's seat. After a while, He Lushen opened the passenger door and Yu Zhan drove him away from Huaguang Building.
Yu Zhan said nothing and concentrated on driving, as if he was He Lushen's full-time driver, but He Lushen knew that he was angry. He had been like this since he was a child, never making noise or fussing when he was unhappy, just staying quiet and not talking.
Thanks to Liu Man's confession, Yu Zhan was able to maintain a relatively happy level no matter how bad his mood was. Otherwise, when he saw those senior executives of Huaguang Media, he might have driven away directly without giving He Lushen any face.
"Ah Zhan, I know I was wrong," He Lushen apologized in a low voice.
"If I knew you still had a job, I wouldn't have listened to you and come here," Yu Zhan said, "You have officially taken over the company from Uncle He. You should establish your authority in front of your subordinates as soon as possible. You can't act arbitrarily like before. This will have a bad impact on you."
"There is always work to be done. I have completed what needs to be done. Besides, I can't be a workaholic like my dad. My dad worked too hard when he was young, and now he is in poor health. Otherwise, he would not have given me the power."
He Lushen said this, looked at Yu Zhan and said, "After so many years, your heart disease is still there. You are angry with me and yourself. You just don't dare to face everyone's gaze alone."
Yu Zhan didn't say anything, which was a sign of agreement.
He does have a mental illness, or maybe it's not really a disease. Ever since his parents passed away, he began to hate being watched by strangers. If he has company, it's okay, he can pretend for a while and look normal, but if he's alone, he'll feel uncomfortable all over.
So that year, when Tao Zhiyao saw him at the funeral, he quietly left.
Yu Zhan didn't know why he became like this. He saw many psychologists, but it was of no use.
"Uncle Yu and the others have been gone for fourteen years. It's time for you to move on. Do you really intend to run a small pet hospital and muddle through your life?"
"I'm not wasting time," Yu Zhan said, "I'm working seriously."
"But your world can obviously be wider. You should be like us, above one person and below ten thousand people."
"I have the right to choose my lifestyle. I just want to be an ordinary person."
He Lushen didn't comment. "Your girlfriend doesn't want to be an ordinary person. She is becoming more and more popular online, and her steps are getting bigger and bigger. If you continue to be closed, the gap between you and her will become bigger and bigger. As far as I know, she became an online celebrity because her family was in debt, and you happen to be rich. If she becomes rich in the future, do you think she will still like you? Aren't you afraid that she will dump you?"
