Shui Miaomiao was sitting at her work station, staring at the table in a daze.
There is a mobile phone on the table in front of Shui Miaomiao, with the V-letter chat interface displayed on it.
"Have you slept, boss? How are you doing in the capital? Are you still used to it?"
"Boss, are you awake? Your stomach is not good to begin with. You must remember to eat on time."
"Is the boss busy?"
"Boss? Do you think I'm annoying, so you don't want to take care of me anymore?"
"boss……"
In the chat interface, a large series of messages were sent by Shui Miaomiao to the "boss", but the boss did not respond.
"Is the boss doing something important in the capital? Why don't you reply to my message?"
"Is it because you think I'm too clingy and you're annoying me?"
Shui Miaomiao was writing and drawing on the table unconsciously with her fingers, feeling extremely complicated inside.
Today is already Luo Yanning's sixth day in Beijing. In the previous five days, the two of them had a good chat, answering all questions and replying to any information.
Since yesterday, no matter what messages Shui Miaomiao sends, it seems like they are all in vain, without any response.
It's no wonder that Shui Miaomiao is worried about gains and losses and thinks about things that are not available.
Tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk--!
A sudden knock on the door interrupted Shui Miaomiao's thoughts.
"come in."
Shui Miaomiao took a deep breath, calmed down her mood, and quickly changed from the role of a little girl worried about gains and losses to the role of "Vice President Shui".
The office door opened from the outside, and Director Liang Dingxiang came in from the door with a solemn look.
"Is Shui always busy?"
After Liang Dingxiang entered the door, she looked around like a thief, and then asked in a low voice.
"I'm not busy. What can I do, Director Liang?"
Shui Miaomiao looked at Liang Dingxiang with confusion, not understanding her behavior.
"Mr. Shui, I have some definite news about Mr. Luo. I don't know whether I should tell you..."
Liang Dingxiang took a deep breath and said as if she had made some determination:
"After thinking about it all morning, I feel I should tell you something."
"What's the exact news about Mr. Luo?" Shui Miaomiao frowned and suddenly had a very bad feeling in her heart.
She had been feeling uneasy these past few days, always feeling that something bad had happened. She kept comforting herself by saying that she was overthinking.
Today I suddenly heard Liang Dingxiang say that she had news about Luo Yanning, and that uneasy feeling reappeared.
"That's right, Mr. Shui, the daughter of an employee in our department works as a nurse at the Union Medical College Hospital in Beijing. She said..."
Liang Dingxiang glanced at Shui Miaomiao's solemn expression and continued: "She said she saw our Mr. Luo in the hospital."
"Have you seen Mr. Luo in the hospital in Beijing?"
After hearing Liang Dingxiang's words, Shui Miaomiao couldn't sit still and suddenly stood up from the chair.
"Is this news unreliable? How does she know Mr. Luo?"
Liang Dingxiang said solemnly: "The news is absolutely reliable. The employee in our department is named Yang Lirong, and he is from Yangjiazhuang next door.
Her daughter is a fan of Mr. Luo, and she recognized Mr. Luo on the first day he was transferred to the hospital."
"Then did she say why Mr. Luo was hospitalized?"
Shui Miaomiao felt a little dizzy and unsteady when she heard Liang Dingxiang's words. She couldn't help but use some strength in her palms holding the desk.
Liang Dingxiang said: "I don't know the specific details, but according to her, Mr. Luo is still in a coma."
"What! Faint, coma..."
When Shui Miaomiao heard Liang Dingxiang's words, her eyes instantly darkened, and she sat back on the stool with a thud.
"Mr. Shui! Are you okay?"
Liang Dingxiang was startled by Shui Miaomiao's reaction, and hurriedly took a few steps forward to her and held her arm.
"I, I'm fine, I was just a little dizzy just now..."
Shui Miaomiao turned to look at Liang Dingxiang and said, struggling to get up from her seat:
"Director Liang, is the source reliable?"
"Mr. Shui, take a look at this photo..."
As Liang Dingxiang spoke, she took out her mobile phone from her pocket, opened the chat interface of V letter, and found a picture to show Shui Miaomiao.
Yang Lirong's daughter told her that when Luo Yanning was hospitalized in the capital, she was afraid that her daughter would get it wrong and asked her daughter to take photos of Luo Yanning.
The photo is a photo taken from the side with Luo Yanning's eyes closed. The angle is not so direct, and it looks like it was taken secretly.
However, even though the angle was wrong, the moment she saw the photo, Shui Miaomiao recognized that it was indeed Luo Yanning.
The person who knows Luo Yanning best in the world is not Gao Min, her biological mother, nor Wu Mingshi and Zhang Qian, their two close friends. That person has to be Shui Miaomiao.
"Director Liang, go and do your work. I have something to do and I need to go out for a while..."
Shui Miaomiao hurriedly said something to Liang Dingxiang, raised her legs and walked towards the door. After walking a few steps quickly, she actually started to trot a little uncontrollably.
"Your Majesty, please bless us, Mr. Luo, that everything will be safe and sound..."
After Liang Dingxiang went out, she prayed devoutly in the direction of the Bixia Yuanjun Empress Temple.
After Shui Miaomiao went out, she went straight to the general manager's office and knocked on the door.
"come in."
After Luo Ying's voice sounded in the house, Shui Miaomiao pushed the door open and entered.
"What's the matter? What's the hurry for you to come to me in such a hurry?"
Luo Ying frowned slightly when she saw Shui Miaomiao pushing in the door. She had never seen Shui Miaomiao so glum and in a hurry.
Shui Miaomiao took a deep breath, calmed down and said, "Mr. Luo, I have something urgent and I would like to take a few days off. I hope you can approve it."
"Oh? What urgent matter is more urgent than the Black Dragon Group's matter?"
Luo Ying looked at Shui Miaomiao with a playful expression and said:
"As you know, our new company is about to open, and now is a very busy time.
Say it yourself, at this critical juncture, is it appropriate for you to ask for leave?"
"..."
Shui Miaomiao was silent for a few seconds after hearing Luo Ying's words, and finally said as if she had made some determination:
"I know it's inappropriate, but the matter is urgent and important. I have to go."
Luo Ying smiled and said, "Let me guess...it's something related to Luo Yanning, right?"
"You...how do you know!"
Shui Miaomiao looked at Luo Ying in surprise. She really didn't expect Luo Ying to guess her thoughts right away.
Luo Ying said calmly: "How I know is not important. What I want to tell you is that you don't have to worry about him. He will be back in about ten days."
Shui Miaomiao said: "Having said that...but I..."
"I know how you feel, but you are not a doctor. Even if you stay by his side every day, it will not help."
Luo Ying looked at Shui Miaomiao with burning eyes and said, "What he needs most now is not for you to stay by his side doing nothing.
Rather, we should complete the duties for him that he cannot perform, and complete the work for him that he cannot do."
"I..." Shui Miaomiao was speechless after what Luo Ying said.
Although she was worried about Luo Yanning's safety, as Luo Ying said, she was not a doctor.
Even if she stayed with Luo Yanning every step of the way, it would not help his condition. It was completely in vain.
"I understand, Mr. Luo, I'm going back to work."
Shui Miaomiao hesitated for a moment, but finally followed Luo Ying's suggestion and returned to her job.
…
Ten days passed in a flash.
The time soon came to December 25th.
According to what Luo Ying said before, Luo Yanning will most likely wake up around 12 o'clock tonight.
After 10 days of getting along day and night, the relationship between Gao Min and Xu Kejing has been greatly improved.
The two of them have now become "good friends" who talk about everything.
Although a lot of work was delayed at the factory, Gao Min also felt that it was well worth it.
Firstly, I spent time with my son, and secondly, my relationship with my daughter has been greatly improved.
Family love is something you can't buy with too much money.
"Jingjing, what do you think of this skirt?"
Gao Min looked at Xu Kejing affectionately, handed her the phone, and asked her to look at the pictures above:
"This is the latest winter coat designed by the designers in the design department of our factory. If you like it, I'll ask them to send you a few pieces to wear."
In the first few days, everyone was a little nervous when faced with Luo Yanning's unknown condition, and their thoughts were focused on him.
After a while, after getting used to it, I became less nervous and started to talk about other things in life.
Regardless of age, the most common topics women talk about are cosmetics and clothing, and Gao Min and Xu Kejing are no exception.
"It's very nice. The designers in our factory are very good at designing. I feel it's not much worse than those big brands."
After Xu Kejing saw a few pictures on Gao Min's mobile phone, she praised them without hesitation.
"What do those big brands have? At most, they only have celebrity endorsements. Let me tell you Jingjing, the materials used for many big-name clothes are not as good as the fabrics from our factory."
"Let's just talk about the socks and pajamas that Nana sold a while ago. They are made of very cheap polyester fiber."
"Just those socks and pajamas, I don't even wear them for free, but they dare to sell them for thousands of dollars! It's just like cutting off fans!"
"..."
When it comes to clothing, we come to Gao Min’s home court.
Gao Min started to enter the clothing industry after graduating from college. Today, he has been working in this field for decades and can be considered a semi-expert.
She first worked as a shopping guide in a clothing wholesale city, then entered a clothing factory to learn clothing design, and then opened a small clothing factory after saving enough money.
From childhood to adulthood, from nothing to something, Gao Min's entire life was also a life of constant self-improvement and courage to make progress.
"However, I have to say that being able to invite big-name celebrities to endorse is indeed very important to the publicity effect of the clothing brand."
"However, your father and I don't have that big ambition, and we are reluctant to spend that money."
"We don't want to make much money, as long as we can save some pension money and help you and Ning Ning a little bit."
"Now that your brother's scenic spots are doing very well, your father and I don't have to worry about him anymore. Whatever we earn in the future will be used as a dowry for you."
Gao Min spoke his mind half seriously and half jokingly.
"Auntie, what are you talking about? I will never leave you and dad in this life. Why am I saving up for a dowry..."
When she talked about getting married, Xu Kejing's pretty face blushed slightly and she glanced at Luo Yanning who was lying on the bed.
"Unless I meet a man as outstanding as him, it will be difficult for me to be tempted again in my life, right?"
Xu Kejing didn't say this sentence, but it was what she felt in her heart.
During this period of time, in addition to spending time with Gao Min, Xu Kejing also had another person lying on the hospital bed, Luo Yanning.
During the night watch, Xu Kejing always regarded Luo Yanning as someone to confide in and told him everything.
I don't know since when, Luo Yanning has occupied a very important position in her heart and has become an indispensable person in her life.
Just like when a younger sister is looking for a boyfriend, she will compare him with her older brother in her heart.
Unknowingly, Xu Kejing's standards for finding a boyfriend have already reached the same level as Luo Yanning's.
Gao Min said lovingly: "Silly girl, how can you stay with your parents all your life? Aren't you like an old girl?"
Xu Kejing curled her lips and said: "An old girl is an old girl. Isn't my brother not married yet? He is older than me. I will consider marrying him when he gets married."
"Your brother...well, I don't know what this brat is thinking. He has such a good relationship with Mingshi and Qianqian. He watches them having sex every day. Don't you think he feels lonely?
?I’m really surprised.”
When the subject of Luo Yanning's marriage and love came up, Gao Min wanted to pull him up from the hospital bed and give him a good education.
Xu Kejing whispered from the side: "Isn't it popular nowadays to marry later and have children later?
It is not too late to get married at the age of thirty-four or five, not to mention that we are only twenty-four or five years old.
Isn’t this considered to be in line with the trend of the times?”
"As the old saying goes, it's not like a family doesn't live in the same house. Neither you nor your brother can make your father and I worry."
When Gao Min thought of the scenes of life and death he had seen in the hospital these days, Gao Min suddenly felt relieved:
"Forget it, your father and I won't push for your marriage, just do whatever you want."
In the past few days, it was not uncommon to see white-haired people sending black-haired people to the hospital, and Gao Min's state of mind also changed a lot.
A person never knows which one will come first, tomorrow or the accident. Live in the present, cherish the present, and live as happily as you can!
Maybe after falling asleep that day, he won't be able to wake up the next day.
"Thank you aunt for understanding! You are the best aunt in the world!"
Xu Kejing said with a smile, hugged Gao Min's arm affectionately and praised her.
Gao Min couldn't help laughing and said: "You are the best aunt if you don't rush to get married? Isn't this too simple?"
Xu Kejing smiled and said: "No, it's not just this. In every aspect, you are the best aunt in the world!"
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about your study at the Conservatory of Music! I have the same idea as your brother. I also support you to study for a few years and solidify your foundation."
Gao Min reached out to touch Xu Kejing's head and said with a loving smile on his face:
"You are still young and have a long road ahead. Only by laying a solid foundation can you go further on this road and reach a higher position.
Didn’t your brother tell you that he would help you find someone to have a relationship with, and he would help you with tuition and everything else, so you don’t have to be polite to him.
Who makes him your brother? As a brother, you should take care of your sister, and when he recovers, let him help you advance this matter."
Xu Kejing said: "There is no need to be anxious! Rest your body first before getting down to business."
Jingle bells, jingle bells--!
As soon as Xu Kejing finished speaking, the mobile phone in her pocket rang.
I took out my mobile phone and took a look. The name displayed on it was "Heilongshan Scenic Area Water Director".
