Can't help feeling for you: can't live without you

Chapter 9 Olive Pit (2)
She looked in the direction of his finger, and he was pointing at the place they left just now. She saw the dark shadows under the bridge, covering a densely packed low residential area, which seemed out of place in the brilliant night scene.

"I grew up in this place." He looked in that direction, ignoring her slightly surprised eyes, "My mother raised me in a small stall, and I often saw her being bullied when I was a child." After a pause, he continued, "I'm good at fighting."

She knew this, but at this time, she would just stand by the side, unable to answer a word.

In fact, she didn't know what to say, she lowered her eyes, and saw his hand resting on the iron rail, the fingers were tightly clenched, and the silver cuff buttons on the cuffs of the buttoned shirt gleamed dimly.

She thought he wouldn't lie to her at this moment, and then secretly sighed, what is reborn?that's!

"My mother is very powerful. She can fight with people, beat me with a belt, lie to me that I have eaten when I was the poorest, and watch me eat up everything on the table when I was hungry. She is the most economical. , the bus is not willing to take, in order to get the package brought over by someone else, I walked from the east to the west of the city."

When Dong Zhiwei heard this, he suddenly raised his eyes.

He must be very sad to say this to her.

His side face was a little blurred in the thick night. She was always afraid of him, but she couldn't bear to see him so sad.

She thought about it, "Now that medicine is advanced, there are treatments for any disease, so don't worry too much."

He turned to look at her sideways, "You misunderstood, my mother is not sick, she is just frightened."

She didn't have time to look away, and met him head-on. He was indeed a good-looking man, but the coldness in those eyes made her tremble.

He obviously felt it, so he lowered his eyes in front of her, snuffed out the cigarette butt, and spoke with a lot less in his voice.

"Old Chen is already on his way here, wait a minute, I'll ask him to take you home."

"Don't bother Master Chen, I can go back by myself." She replied.

He had walked back, brushed past her body, and hadn't looked back.

She followed and saw that he went back to the ward, and sat on the hardwood bench in the corridor without going in. The incandescent light in the hospital corridor shone on him, and he was silent, with his finger on the silver lighter Rubbing gently, as if forgetting that she is still there.

The elevator is on Dong Zhiwei's left, and many thoughts are rolling in her mind: it's not working time, she and her boss are alone in the hospital, it will cause people to gossip, and you have to distinguish between public and private, this is the boss's family business, he obviously I'm in a bad mood, it's not wise to stay here any longer...

Thinking this way, she took another step towards the elevator, but Yuan Jingrui didn't look up and didn't speak.She thinks that means acquiescing that she can leave.It's great, she can go home, her parents are waiting, she is extremely tired, she needs to lie down on her own bed and relax completely, not to mention that according to the current situation, she will have to go to the company early tomorrow morning to take Yuan Jingrui's Canceling the work schedule or making other arrangements, facing so many people, making so many explanations, and not being able to tell the truth, it will be a tiring day just thinking about it.

But she heard her own voice and asked him, "Mr. Yuan, have you eaten yet? Do you need me to buy something?"

He looked up at her, and saw the disbelief on Dong Zhiwei's face, not to him, but to himself, his eyes were wide open, much more vivid than usual.

When Dong Zhiwei returned to the hospital with a bowl of takeaway preserved egg porridge, he was still in disbelief of what he had said before.I have already called back, afraid that my parents are worried, and of course they are talking about overtime work, my mother sighed on the other end of the phone, "I always work overtime continuously, and I made red bean soup at home, and I want to wait for you to come back and have a drink together before going to bed."

She felt a little guilty, but after all, she was still serving the boss, so it wasn't a lie.

When I saw Yuan Jingrui, he was still outside the door of the ward. Lao Chen had already rushed over and stood beside him, talking to him in a low voice. When he heard her footsteps, he immediately turned his head and saw her holding a Looking at the porridge bowl, a little surprised expression appeared on his face.

Dong Zhiwei was embarrassed for a moment, as if he had done something wrong, the lighted ward was opened at the same time, and a doctor came out and said to Yuan Jingrui.

"Well, the patient has woken up."

He immediately stood up and went in, and when he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and said to her as if he suddenly remembered Dong Zhiwei.

"You too."

Dong Zhiwei froze, stood on the spot, and resisted silently, but he persisted in looking at her, with an irresistible look in his black eyes, she suddenly thought of her salary account number, and immediately moved spinelessly.

There is nothing more threatening than the boss's threat, especially when she still needs this job, Dong Zhiwei sighed.

Yuan Jingrui led her into the ward, and Yuan's mother was indeed awake, her eyes were fixed on her son, and her mouth was opened.

It took him a while to make a sound, "Mom."

Mother Yuan immediately tried to support herself, "Don't listen to them scaring you, I'm fine."

Yuan Jingrui stepped forward to hold her down, she turned her face and saw Dong Zhiwei holding a porridge bowl next to her son, she stopped what she was about to say, and her face showed a look of surprise and anticipation, "This is it?"

"Her name is Dong Zhiwei, Zhiwei, this is my mother."

He even called her Zhiwei!Where did the usual "Secretary Dong" go?

Dong Zhiwei immediately turned his face to him, and his body stiffened for a moment. In a blink of an eye, he roughly understood what Yuan Jingrui meant, but he couldn't believe it. He only regretted that he had come to the hospital with him before.

What is suicidal, she is talking about.

Yuan Jingrui also looked at her with deep eyes, and an old man's voice came from his ear, "Your name is Zhiwei? What a nice name."

The sound made her turn involuntarily and smile at the old lady.

"Hello, Auntie." As he spoke, he remembered that he was still holding something in his hand, so he lifted it forward, "I went down to buy some porridge just now, you must be hungry after sleeping for so long, right? Do you want some drink? "

Yuan's mother immediately became happy, stretched out her hands to take it, and praised her in front of her son, "This child is really caring."

Yuan Jingrui just smiled, and said to Dong Zhiwei, "Didn't you buy it for me?"

Mother Yuan laughed again, looking at her with such kindness that Dong Zhiwei didn't know how to move her hands and feet.

Fortunately, Lao Chen knocked on the door and came in. Seeing the situation in the ward, he hesitated to speak to Yuan Jingrui.

Mother Yuan said to her son, "It's so late, don't let Zhiwei stay here, you can ask Master Chen to take her home."

Yuan Jingrui nodded. Dong Zhiwei already wanted to leave at this moment. After leaving, he followed Master Chen and walked out. When he reached the door, he heard Yuan's mother's voice, "Come back home to play next time. I remember, Zhiwei."

She forced herself to turn her head and looked at the mother and child. Yuan Jingrui stood by the hospital bed, with his hands still on his mother's shoulders, and nodded slightly to her.

She swallowed, and replied, "Okay."

Dong Zhiwei pressed his forehead against the glass along the way, and Lao Chen kept silent, but when he arrived at her house, he got out of the car and opened the door for her, and said to her, "Thank you, Miss Dong."

Dong Zhiwei sighed, and answered him, "It deserves me, I'm just stupid."

After Dong Zhiwei left, only the mother and son of the Yuan family were left in the ward.

Mother Yuan put the porridge she had taken a sip on the side, and after thinking about it, she grabbed her son's hand again, "You know all about it, right?"

Yuan Jingrui frowned and nodded.

"I didn't tell those two policemen too much. Those people came after you. They said that sooner or later they would have to return what they took, and they said they would find you next time." The more she talked, the more her son He clenched his hand tightly, "Is it from the Zhang family? Isn't it?"

He cast a wink, "I know this very well."

Mother Yuan was full of worry in every wrinkle, "What else can I be afraid of as an old woman? People are here after you. I am worried about you. They are looking for you."

Yuan Jingrui sneered, "I'm afraid they won't come looking for me."

Mother Yuan stared blankly at her son, the fear that she hadn't felt when she was kidnapped suddenly came out crazily, tears were about to come out.

what to do?Over the years, it's not that she didn't know what kind of life her son lived. When he came out to do business in the early years, it was almost like going to the rivers and lakes. Which one didn't come from the shadow of swords and swords, but this time was different. She felt scared, afraid that her son would be punished. harm.

This is her son, her only relative in this world. What those people said is still in her ears. They don't owe the Zhang family anything. It's been so many years, why are their ghosts still lingering?She is old, and her son is no longer the little boy who can be protected by her as long as she grabs his hand and pushes him behind her. What else can she do?What else can I do?
Yuan Jingrui's mother has always been very proud of her son all these years.

After all, not everyone who dropped out of university halfway could have the achievements of Yuan Jingrui today. Although there are ups and downs in the market, as a mother, she believes in her son more than anyone else, and also trusts her son more than anyone else. I feel sorry for his hard work and dedication.

After being dropped out of school, Yuan Jingrui first went to Shenzhen, where he experienced all the hardships and tortures that a foreigner trying to survive there could imagine.

The days when he first arrived there were naturally very embarrassing. The programs he wrote were bought but he never received any money. He was once so poor that he had ten dollars in his pocket and could not afford to live in the cheapest small hotel. He sat in the park with the homeless until dawn. In order to make a living, he did many different jobs, including selling insurance, doing odd jobs, and even handing out leaflets at the entrance of the supermarket. Finally, he finally joined a well-known foreign company. The company, but it also starts from the bottom sales staff.

Slowly, I worked my way up, from primary sales all the way to team management, gradually gained some fame, was poached by many headhunters, and then changed to a truly large international company, which was responsible for expanding the domestic market.

But the cumbersome system of a large company has always made him feel constrained, and his education is also a stumbling block. At this time, he met Zhang Chengfang.

Zhang Chengfang runs a modest factory in Zhejiang. It is considered a family business. It manufactures some accessories for air conditioners that were just emerging at that time. Later, it became bigger and took some foreign orders. It started importing and exporting and doing business. Not bad.He admired Yuan Jingrui, a young man, hoped that he could go to Zhejiang to help him, and gave him a contract with a heavy responsibility.

With Yuan Jingrui’s academic qualifications, it is impossible to achieve the position given by Zhang Chengfang in a foreign company. At that time, his mother was getting old and her health was not getting better every year. She always hoped that her son could leave Shenzhen and return to Shanghai. , Compared with Shenzhen, there is almost no distance between Zhejiang and Shanghai, so he only took a short time to accept the contract and flew back with Zhang Chengfang.

After Yuan Jingrui arrived in Chengfang, he drastically reduced the power of Zhang's close relatives in the factory and introduced a new management mechanism, which caused an uproar at first, but with Zhang Chengfang's strong support, some results were soon achieved.

The real turning point of the matter happened after Zhang Chengfang passed away due to illness. Zhang Chengfang was a diligent person. He was busy with almost all the affairs in the factory. Everyone was fishing in troubled waters, but Zhang Chengfang did a good job relying on spelling, so the whole old Zhang family got involved, but the family couldn't do anything when they had too many things to do, everything was messed up, and it was hard to say much Speaking of everyone, the older generation jumped out to accuse him of being ungrateful. Who raised the money to let him open the factory, so the original profit of the factory was squandered, and the quality and marketing later could not keep up. Zhang Chengfang was devastated.

Even if Zhang Chengfang hadn't studied for a few years, he knew that it would be impossible to go on like this. Bringing Yuan Jingrui back was almost his last effort. He could feel the business talent and decisiveness of this young man. He hoped that Yuan Jingrui was able to bring the factory out of the mud.

The arrival of Yuan Jingrui did improve some of the dilapidated factories, but what was unexpected was that Zhang Chengfang's body collapsed shortly after overwork. A sudden serious illness made him collapse almost instantly. The moon will pass away.

The relatives of the Zhang family had originally resisted Yuan Jingrui's arrival a lot. When they saw Zhang Chengfang collapsed, they took advantage of the chaos to take the money and leave. In order to share the money, they almost raised their hands in front of Zhang Chengfang's hospital bed. It is even more plausible.

"This factory was funded by several of us. Now that Cheng Fang is dying, we can't even get our share back? Could it be cheaper for outsiders!"

In this way, Zhang Chengfang was not yet in his early seventies, and even the most basic payment for purchases in the factory was gone, everything was almost at a standstill, the books were full of debts, all orders could not be delivered on time, and what awaited them would be huge compensation.

Zhang Chengfang lost his wife in his early years, and Cheng Huimei was his second wife. He also has two sons in their 20s, Zhang Dafeng and Zhang Dacai, who were born to his dead wife. When Yuan Jingrui first arrived at the factory, they treated him There was a lot of filth, and at this time, Cheng Huimei was clamoring for Cheng Huimei to sell the factory and share the inheritance, and she was unwilling to continue the factory operation no matter what.

Faced with all this, Cheng Huimei was haggard and exhausted. Her only wish was to continue the factory and continue the painstaking efforts of her dead husband.Zhang Chengfang didn't want to die, and she knew this better than anyone else. The most repeated sentence he said on the sick bed was, "I can't collapse, Cheng Fang can't collapse." She agreed to him with tears in her eyes, but He is still unwilling to die, and she knows that he is unwilling to die.
