Qiu Bailu had a beautiful smile, but underneath her smile was a deep sadness. "That day in the hospital, after I learned that the child was gone, Huo Dongheng asked me if I hated him. In fact, I hated myself more than I hated him.
If I wasn't so useless and stupid, how could I let such an ambitious person hide around me for so many years without realizing it? I loved him so much and thought that as long as I gave everything, he would still be grateful even if he didn't love me. But who would
think……"
As Qiu Bailu spoke, she raised her head and looked at the snow-fallen sea in the distance. Waves of light flashed in the corners of her eyes, like stars falling from the sky.
Seeing her like this, Qin Zhen couldn't help but feel sad. He held her hand tightly and said, "I can't blame you. You didn't know he was that kind of person at the time."
"Really? But what if I tell you, I have actually noticed it a long time ago?" Qiu Bailu looked at him with a bitter smile, "Although I am stupid, I am not a stupid person without feelings. He never said he loved me, and I have already noticed it.
It feels wrong, but I would rather deceive myself than admit that he doesn’t love me. I am like an ostrich hiding its head in the sand. As long as the knife does not fall, I will not raise my head until...
"
She couldn't go on, the past events were intertwining and growing in her heart like thorns.
The snow outside is falling harder and harder, and even through the window, it seems that you can hear the sound of falling snow flakes. Qiu Bailu pressed her palms against the glass, and gradually a thin layer of mist appeared, revealing the outline of her fingers.
.
"I met him in the hospital today. He asked me to transfer the company's equity to him, and he would give me money so that I could have enough food and clothing. Qin Zhen, I want to promise him."
Qin Zhen was shocked when he heard this, "Xiaobai, are you kidding? This is a company established by your parents. You didn't make up your mind not to give it to him. You paid so much back then...and you...and
You have suffered so much and suffered so much, and even lost your children because of it, how can you be willing to do so?"
"So what if he's not willing to give in? He's still discussing with me carefully now. If I reject him, I'm afraid he will be hard on me in the next step. And he has something in his hand that I want. I
I want to trade with him." Qiu Bailu let out a long sigh. She raised her head and found that the snow that had fallen so heavily just now had stopped. It was completely white outside and the whole world was extremely clean.
"I don't understand anything. If the company is really handed over to me, I'm afraid it will be a dead end in the end. So many employees rely on this job to make a living. If they really lose their jobs, then I have done something wrong.
Too big? Qin Zhen, I’m really useless, right?”
The wind blows for a while, the snow blows for a while, and after the snowstorm, it is a sunny day. But when will the snow in her heart stop?
"Don't be stupid, Xiaobai, if you don't know how to run the company, then most of the people in this world will be useless." Qin Zhen comforted, he didn't know what she was talking about, but
Looking at Qiu Bailu's serious expression, he knew that that thing must be very important. "Xiaobai, no matter what decision you make, I will always support you. You don't have to worry about what he will do to you. I will protect you.
I don’t dare to do anything to you. Although the Qin family is not as rich as the Qiu family, but... Xiaobai, you know, sometimes money is not everything."
Now that Huo Dongheng is at the height of his power, only Qin Zhen dares to say this. Qiu Bailu smiled gratefully at him and said, "Don't worry, I have my own plans. Even if I give him the company, I won't let him get it easily."
Her voice was soft, as if she was talking about something insignificant, but Qin Zhen saw a burning fire in her eyes. The flame was so powerful that it seemed like it could burn everything.
Qiu Bailu returned to Qiu's building, and many people who knew her couldn't help but stop and pay attention to her when they saw her again.
At the last shareholders' meeting, the incident between her and Huo Dongheng had spread to everyone in the company. Some people thought she was pitiful, and some thought she was stupid. They talked behind her back and looked at her in different ways.
For Qiu Bailu, this is no longer important.
When she was young, she experienced a big change. She could shut herself in a small world that only belonged to her and ignore her because of her young age. But now, she is no longer young. She has no parents or relatives, and she has no family anymore.
People allowed her to hide in a corner and act crazy. This was something she had to face alone, no matter how unwilling she was.
The meeting with Huo Dongheng was held in Qiu Chengjia's original office. After Qiu Chengjia passed away, the president's office became vacant. Although Huo Dongheng had become the acting president in name, he had no idea if there was a god three feet above his head.
The sparrow that dares to occupy the dove's nest in a majestic manner.
Although the office has not been used for a long time, all the furnishings inside are still exactly the same as Qiu Bailu's childhood memories. Qiu Bailu came early and stood in front of the window, overlooking the people coming and going below the building.
Not long after, footsteps were heard at the door, and Huo Dongheng appeared in Qiu Bailu's sight with lawyer Li Pingyi.
Li Pingyi placed several documents in front of the two of them, "After signing these documents, the management of the company will be transferred to Mr. Huo, and Bai Lu will receive the corresponding compensation, as well as your mother's belongings."
Li Pingyi can be regarded as an old man of Qiu's Construction. Qiu Bailu always calls him Uncle Li when she sees him. He has been working in Qiu's Legal Department since graduation and has been working diligently for decades.
She knew that Li Pingyi was the most fair person, but once she was bitten by a snake, she was afraid of the trap for ten years, and even her best and most trusted friends could deceive her. Qiu Bailu no longer knew who else she could trust, so she kept those documents
I read them carefully several times before nodding my head to acknowledge them.
During the short period of time she was reading, Huo Dongheng had been sitting opposite her. He looked at her calmly, with a cup of coffee in his hand without taking a sip.
"I have read the document. There is nothing wrong with it. I will sign it. But before signing, I still have something to trouble Uncle Li." Qiu Bailu said, taking out a few pages of paper from the small bag she carried with her and crossing them to Huo Dongheng.
before.
"I will give you the company and you will divorce me."
"This is impossible!" Huo Dongheng originally held a pencil in his hand and was already planning to write. When he heard Qiu Bailu's words, he immediately threw the pen out and sneered, "I'm still thinking, why are you so happy this time?
It turns out you still have such thoughts, Qiu Bailu, let me tell you, it is impossible for me to divorce you, you have given up this intention."
"Oh? If you say that, then I can't help it." Qiu Bailu spread her hands, "Since you don't want the company, it doesn't matter. I don't think it's hot anyway. You're not afraid of people saying you are dishonest.
Shun, what am I afraid of?"
Before Qiu Bailu came, Huo Dongheng did not expect to get the company so smoothly, but Qiu Bailu's conditions were too...
"Lawyer Li, you go out first. I have something to talk to Xiaolu." Huo Dongheng sent Li Pingyi out, turned around and immediately revealed his true face.
He stared at Qiu Bailu with evil eyes for a moment, "Do you really want to leave me?"
Qiu Bailu smiled, "I'm not a masochist. I've been ruined by you, but I still have to live and die with you. Do you really think I can't do it because of you?"
She spoke calmly, as if she really didn't care about Huo Dongheng, but her clenched fists that kept shaking betrayed her heart.
She was trying her best to suppress herself, whether she was angry or sad.
Huo Dongheng pushed the document aside, "If this is your additional condition, then I don't agree. I don't agree to divorce."
"Why? We don't have children or property disputes. If someone hears you like this, they will think that you are deeply in love with me and are reluctant to let me go." Qiu Bailu said.
She suddenly laughed, and she seemed to find this very interesting, "Mr. Huo, can you give me a reason why you did this? Don't get me wrong, I'm just curious. It's okay if it's not convenient for you to say."
Her attitude was frivolous and very different from usual. Huo Dongheng looked at her and felt very uncomfortable, as if she had swallowed a hedgehog alive. If she scolded him, hated him, and gnashed her teeth at him, he would feel normal.
But she, her condition was so good that it was a little abnormal.
Qiu Bailu is by no means a hard-hearted person. She can still talk and laugh after experiencing these changes, so her current appearance is just a forced smile.
Somehow, Huo Dongheng felt that her smiling face was very annoying, and he couldn't help but want to tear off the mask on her face.
"It's okay to tell you. In fact, the reason is very simple. I just don't want to see you happy. As long as it makes you feel happy, I hope it will come to nothing." After Huo Dongheng finished speaking, he successfully saw Qiu Bailu's face.
Turning from white to blue, she pursed her lips tightly, as if she was trying to form words to curse him. She was so angry, like an enraged little lion, and the corners of Huo Dongdao's mouth curved into a cruel curve.
smile.
Qiu Bailu wanted to curse loudly, but she knew that with her scolding skills, she could not hurt Huo Dongheng's hair at all. She endured it again and again, but finally couldn't hold it back, rushed forward, tore the documents into pieces, and then
The hand was thrown onto Huo Dongheng. Huo Dongheng was covered in pieces of white paper, but he was in a pretty good mood. He shrugged with an indifferent look on his face.
Qiu Bailu lowered her head and rushed out of the office. Unexpectedly, she met Ren Ying head-on. Ren Ying had been feeling refreshed recently and had received a promotion and salary increase. Huo Dongheng had never been stingy with his old subordinates who had followed him for many years.
She met Qiu Bailu face to face, and Qiu Bailu immediately stopped.
Ren Ying was a little surprised, because Huo Dongheng didn't tell her that Qiu Bailu would come, but after thinking for a moment, she immediately greeted her with a smile like a spring flower, "Hey, it turns out to be Miss Qiu, why are you so free to come to the company today? Mr. Huo
