After dinner, Tang Yili put all the lunch boxes into his bag. Tang Feng asked Tang Yili to go home early and rest. Tang Yili pretended to agree, but how could he really rest.
She threw away the trash and went upstairs. The sensor door of Yili Garment opened automatically.
It was pitch dark and the employees had already left work. Tang Yili was sitting alone in the office without turning on the lights. Looking at the neon lights outside the window, he suddenly missed Xun Lang.
According to the original plan, she had already arrived in Paris and checked into a hotel. But now, she was trapped in a huge quagmire. She was sinking bit by bit. The filth that was swallowing her had reached her neck, and it was painful to breathe.
But unable to save myself...
The mobile phone was placed on the desk, and suddenly it lit up, and half of the room was illuminated with blue light.
Tang Yili picked it up and looked at it. It was Xun Lang. He sent a message asking her if she had landed.
This is a routine inquiry.
Tang Yili's eyes were still red, she suppressed her emotions and replied to him.
[The company is delayed by something, so I may not be able to make it in time to watch your game.]
Xun Lang's reply was as bland as ever: [Then don't come over.]
As if he felt his tone was too strong again, he quickly added: [Anyway, I will go back soon.]
Tang Yili felt comforted and regretful at the same time, and said: "Then you have to work hard, I will watch the TV broadcast to see if you can swim within 47 seconds!"
Xun Lang:【Yeah.】
Tang Yili sent an emoticon of a little bunny, baring its big teeth and making a heart sign with its long ears, which kept beating.
It especially suits Tang Yili’s heartless temperament.
As expected, Xun Lang did not reply.
But Tang Yili inexplicably felt the will to survive in a desperate situation - she was still young, already had someone to love, and would have a lot of happiness in the future, so she couldn't be dragged down by Fengtang!
She then made a call to Annie.
Annie also knew about the parent company. She received a call from her boss in the middle of the night and asked in a panic: "Mr. Li, what do you need from me?"
"I need you personally, do me a favor."
Annie: "What's the deal?"
Tang Yili: "Tomorrow morning, you go find a reliable bank and help me negotiate. I want to pledge 16% of Fengtang shares to see how much money can be exchanged, and how soon I can get the money."
Annie's breathing quickened, "Mr. Li, do you want to redeem your life for Yili Clothing?"
"Yes, I need money to buy back the remaining shares of Yili Garment from Fengtang."
When the disaster was approaching, Tang Yili chose to redeem Yili Clothing and pledge Fengtang's shares. This not only meant that she gave up Fengtang, but the deeper impact was that she abandoned Tangfeng.
Once the shares are pledged, she will lose the right to speak in Fengtang. No matter how everyone operates, without Tang Yili's 16% participation, it is impossible to keep Tangfeng.
"You should handle this matter quietly and don't tell Wang Jian."
As the chief designer of Yili Garments, Anne certainly understands that this is the best arrangement for Yili Garments.
"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I know how to do it."
After doing all this, Tang Yili was exhausted.
She found a corner of the sofa and lay there with her legs curled up. Because the coat covering her body was too narrow, she shrank her body again, revealing only half of her face.
Fell asleep all night.
When Tang Yili woke up early, she was woken up by the sound of the cleaning lady vacuuming.
The sky was bright and it was only half past six in the morning when I looked at the clock. How could anyone in the office building go to work so early? Auntie came in and was startled, "Oh, Mr. Li, why are you sleeping here?"
Maybe the cleaning lady is the only one in the whole building who doesn't know that she is going to lose her job.
Tang Yili stretched his waist, stood up, and smiled casually: "I was just taking a nap, but I didn't know it was already dawn."
She was perfunctory, but in exchange for her aunt nagging her, saying that young people should pay attention to their health, etc. After she finally finished cleaning and left, Tang Yili felt that her mind was slightly clearer.
Today is the most critical day. Whether the betting agreement will take effect depends on the feedback from the China Securities Regulatory Commission today.
Yesterday, I searched all over the company for connections, but no good news had come out so far. Tang Yili didn't dare to have high hopes.
The time reached nine o'clock, and employees outside were filling up their workstations one after another.
It seems that Yili Garment has not been greatly affected, and the work is progressing in an orderly manner, and the whole morning was spent peacefully.
This is a bit like being in the eye of a tornado. It seems that the center area is the calmest, but in fact the air pressure is low and the air is thin, so no one can survive.
But the time for death has not come either.
Tang Yili set an alarm clock. It was set for two in the afternoon, which was also eight in the morning in Paris, which was the broadcast time of the 100-meter freestyle final.
She closed the door of her office, leaving all the distractions behind her, and watched the game first.
This is a project that Xun Lang has prepared entirely on his own for several months. It is a battlefield of his personal will. How could Tang Yili miss it?
At ten past two o'clock, the whistle sounded.
The three Chinese athletes in the middle lane started at the same time. The bright red national flag was printed on their swimming caps. Tang Yili could recognize them at a glance. The one on the left was Xun Lang, the one on the right was Wei Ran. Naturally, the one left in the middle was
It's Zhan Yixuan.
Looking at positions, Zhan Yixuan and Wei Ran's results in the qualifying rounds were both better than Xun Lang's.
In the first half of the race, Xun Lang fell into third place.
The frequency of his strokes was obviously slower than that of Wei Ran and Zhan Yixuan. Wei Ran was ahead, Zhan Yixuan was one head behind him, and Xun Lang was one head behind Zhan Yixuan. This state was maintained after turning back.
After an extremely long underwater dive, Xun Lang finally caught up and kept pace with Zhan Yixuan because he avoided the disadvantage of his arms and relied on his strong leg strength.
The distance of 100 meters is very short, and explosive power is of great importance, and reversals often occur in an instant.
Seeing that the end was right in front of him, Tang Yili had already unconsciously squeezed the mouse tightly.
Wei Ran had tried his best to throw off his arms, turn around, and paddle, but he finally ran out of energy and was caught up by the two people behind him. Xun Lang and Zhan Yixuan were always on the same level, and it was impossible to tell who was faster with the naked eye.
Who is slow.
Until it hits the line.
Tang Yili was dumbfounded. He didn't know whether he would win or not.
Even the commentators on the TV were saying in admiration: "It depends on the referee's judgment... Oh! It's out! The results are out!"
"First place, 46 seconds 90!"
"Second place, 46 seconds 93!"
"The first place is...Xun Lang! He broke the previous competition record of 46 seconds and 91 seconds! He set a new record of 46 seconds and 90 seconds! Even though it is only 0.01 seconds, this is history!"
The host was still jokingly saying: "All mankind has worked hard for four years to improve the performance of this event by 0.01 seconds. How can it not be history... Hey... it is very interesting to watch the replay after just crossing the line..."
Tang Yili, who was happy for Xun Lang, was about to get up to pour water, but was pulled back to the chair by the host's words.
The broadcast just replayed the line crossing in slow motion.
