Chapter 471 Stand by my side

The sudden trembling in her voice made Zhou Xun a little confused. Su Man didn't know why her voice was shaking so much. She just held her phone and waited for the other party's answer.

"This is just an optimization of employment rules, not a major decision. Su Man, what are you still afraid of?"

Su Man shook her head at the phone, "I'm not afraid, I just hope you can inform me before that."

"Can others tell you and me change the final result?"

"cannot."

Su Man took a breath, Zhou Xun was right, no matter what, this was already an established fact and no one could change it.

She suddenly realized that her expectations for the current Zhou Xun were too high. She naively thought that Zhou Xun was the man who would stand by her side no matter what time and place.

But now, whenever Zhou Xun talks about work, the disparity between them will be revealed.

He now has his own ideas on employing people. He has worked with Bai Qiumiao for so many years, and of course he knows her strength. In his heart, he believes that promotions in Tengda should not be based on seniority, but on strength.

He hates those immutable rules. Rules are born to be broken, and he is the first person to break them.

"Then will you grade it fairly and impartially?"

Such questioning is undoubtedly a minefield for Zhou Xun, "How can it be considered fair?"

"You won't think highly of her because of the friendship between you and Bai Qiumiao and her investment in all platforms, because now, the friendship between us is not as good as hers, and I can't afford so much investment. So, I hope

On campaign day, you can always be fair."

"Are you playing emotional cards to the judges now?"

"I didn't." Su Man felt her teeth were trembling. She thought she could no longer discuss it with Zhou Xun. "Forget it, what you said makes sense. The final result is the same."

She hung up the phone, found her pill box in the dark, and took a few pills to calm her agitated heart.

Zhou Xun didn't know why Su Man became so sensitive, but he knew that Su Man was emotionally unstable now. He sent her another message, "Be confident, I believe you."

Su Man watched the phone screen light up and then go dark, reflecting her extremely gloomy face.

She knew many years ago that this society not only valued ability, capital, and relationships as equally important, but in Tengda, a company full of human kindness, Su Man felt that she would not necessarily lose to Bai Qiumiao.

What she wanted was just a word of comfort from Zhou Xun, so that she could feel his support for her before.

Rather than being suddenly reminded of this during the dinner party, she became the object of pity.

He now sent a message of encouragement that Su Man wanted to see, but she was no longer interested in replying to him. There was always a little difference between them.

When Su Man went to the bathroom, she accidentally tripped over Chacha's object. She fell to the ground. She didn't cry. She shed tears when she saw the toy left by Chacha. She missed Chacha very much and she also missed her former Zhou.

Find.

She didn't go to the company the next day, but went to the doctor. She didn't have any medicine, but she had been suffering from insomnia recently and a lot of her hair was falling out.

"Miss Su, you push yourself too hard. You can relax sometimes."

Su Man gathered her coat and nodded.

She took a vacation for herself, but the messages on her phone kept coming one after another. When the doctor was consulting, she was often distracted by these reminders.

Su Man looked apologetically and pressed mute.

At noon, she took out her mobile phone. Xiaohe and Chen Qiaohui sent her a lot of messages, most of them asking about her situation.

"It's okay. I just felt a little uncomfortable when I woke up in the morning. I took half a day off. I'll go back later."

She returned to the company, turned on her computer and dealt with the problems left over from her previous work, feeling extremely quiet.

It was so quiet that Xiaohe couldn't bear the loneliness and almost threw herself on her, begging her to talk.

Before Xiao He could do anything, Lin Zhi brought afternoon tea to everyone, including the small cakes that Su Man loved to eat. Su Man couldn't bring up the interest, so she gave them to Xiao He.

Lin Zhi glanced at it but said nothing. He entered Zhou Xun's office, came out and said to Su Man, "Boss, I need to see you for something."

"Okay." Su Man didn't even raise her eyelids. She stood up and smiled at Lin Zhi.

She knocked on the office door, and Zhou Xun asked her to come in, "Close the door."

When Zhou Xun discussed work, he never closed the door. Su Man paused and closed the door.

Su Man stood opposite him, standing upright, all the warm winter sun fell on her body, illuminating her stubbornness.

"Because I didn't tell you in advance, you're going to skip work today?"

Su Man just looked at him and didn't speak.

Zhou Xun put down the note, raised his head, and said, "Speak."

"What's there to say? When I was thinking about what you said, you didn't answer me. Why do I have to respond to you when you want to know the answer?"

"If I tell you in advance, will it change the outcome?"

"Nothing will change the outcome."

They hardly quarreled in the past, but now Su Man couldn't bear it. She gasped several times. She turned her back and let herself calm down for a long time before turning around again. She seemed to have really calmed down.

She then spoke slowly: "Today it's not Bai Qiumiao, or Wang Qiumiao, I won't mind if Luo Qiumiao invests so much to compete with me. Because I know this is a workplace, whoever has the ability can get in, but I

I don’t feel inferior because I don’t think I’m not better than them. Do you agree with me?”

Zhou Xun seemed to listen very carefully and did not answer Su Man.

Su Man took it as if he agreed, and added: "So, what I hope is never that I can be promoted smoothly, but that after the rules are changed and new competitors join, my boyfriend can tell me this demand.

Is it too much?"

"It's not too much at all," Zhou Xun finally said, staring into Su Man's eyes, "But Su Man, do you think this makes sense?"

"It makes no sense, but I never try to figure out whether something is meaningful. I just hope that my boyfriend can stand on my side on the basis of fairness." Just like before.

Su Man said the last half of her sentence in her heart. She really couldn't make such a request to Zhou Xun.

"so what?"

She felt that it was too tiring to fall in love with the current Zhou Xun, or in other words, the former Zhou Xun pampered her to no end, and now she couldn't accept him now.

He devoted himself wholeheartedly to his work and allowed their relationship to grow wildly.

His rhetorical question blocked all Su Man's words in her chest.

She just looked at him, not knowing what to say.
