When the personnel transfer order came out, the entire Rong family was in a panic. The finance department was especially busy. After Rong Yuchi was transferred, the position of financial director was vacant. Rong Chen was temporarily acting as the deputy. Then everyone was busy dealing with the issue of work handover.
"Secretary You, sort out all the 3a-level documents, reprint them, and organize them into a volume. The director will bring those materials to Tainan!"
"Secretary You, have you backed up file number 6759?!"
"Secretary You, look for last year's financial report. Mr. Rong Chen wants to review it!"
For four consecutive days, You Tong has been in this busy rhythm, but the busyness cannot buffer her from her worries.
The first thing on her mind was about the Li family. The Li family's crisis was increasing day by day. It was on the financial headlines every day. She knew that after Rong Yuchi left, no one would be able to control the situation. Li family would definitely die by then.
Another thing that worries her is her own stay. According to convention, she is Rong Yuchi's secretary. If he transfers her, she should follow him. However, he has not mentioned this to her for four days.
She didn't even mean to ask about anything. She had no idea where she would be tomorrow.
For four days, she was extremely busy every day, but no matter how busy she was, these two things were always with her, as if they were engraved in her mind, always making her panic.
On the fifth day, Friday, Rong Yuchi presided over his last meeting in the Finance Department. Although Rong Chen was sitting in the side seat, he was actually taking the lead.
In the conference room, everyone sat around the oblong table
Rong Chen's voice is different from Rong Yuchi's indifferent voice. He is calm but humorous, which always gives people a feeling of spring breeze. Moreover, he often walked around the finance department before and was familiar with the staff, so the atmosphere of the meeting was quite good.
An absent-minded person
"Secretary You, send the information to everyone"
You Tong sat motionless in his position, as if he didn't hear anything and was very distracted.
Rong Chen looked at her sideways, bumped her gently with his elbow, and said in a low voice, "Xiaotong!"
"Uh!" You Tong suddenly came back to his senses and saw everyone looking at him with strange eyes. His face suddenly turned red and he quickly lowered his head and apologized, "I'm sorry."
Subconsciously, she raised her eyes and secretly glanced at Rong Yuchi, only to see that his expression was as usual, as if he was not affected in any way.
Suddenly, her chest felt tight again
She quickly suppressed her emotions and stood up to distribute the information. But what she didn't know was that the moment she turned around, Rong Yuchi's calm eyes suddenly flashed.
The meeting lasted for an hour and fifteen minutes. After the meeting, Rong Chen deliberately left her behind, while Rong Yuchi glanced at them, said nothing, and then walked out of the meeting room.
You Tong raised his eyes to look at Rong Chen and apologized first, "I'm sorry, I was distracted just now."
Rong Chen waved his hand, "Okay, I didn't ask you to stay specifically for this reason."
"That is?!" You Tong was a little confused.
Rong Chen closed the document in his hand, obviously not wanting to talk about business anymore, "Xiaotong, what are your plans for the future?! Should you follow him to Tainan, or stay and be my assistant?!"
Although it is related to official matters, it is done in the tone of a friend
You Tong understood what he meant. He wanted to ask her what she wanted, but was her wish important?! And could her wish be autonomous?! Besides, she couldn't figure out what she was thinking.
Seeing her confused look, Rong Chen couldn't help but sigh, "Xiaotong, as long as you say so, I will definitely help you! No matter whether you want to leave or stay!"
You Tong suddenly felt warm in her heart. Rong Chen was really her friend because he could see through her thoughts and know her hesitations.
In fact, she really wanted to go to Tainan with Rong Yuchi, for no other reason than because it was Tainan and she could go back to see her grandma at any time. This alone was enough for her to make a choice, but Rong Yuchi had always been dissatisfied with her.
He didn't ask about it, so she couldn't take the initiative to mention it. It would be like she was trying to catch him, which made her feel unbearable.
"Thank you!" You Tong thanked Rong Chen sincerely, his eyes full of gratitude, and then he smiled and said, "I will think about it carefully."
"Well" Rong Chen stood up and patted his shoulder, and said meaningfully before leaving, "Xiaotong, there are not many opportunities to make choices in life. When you should be brave, you must be decisive."
brave?!
decisive?!
You Tong was slightly stunned. After thinking about it, she already made a decision in her heart.
Get up and walk towards the director's office
◎◎◎
In the office, Rong Yuchi was sorting out documents. Suddenly, there was a gentle knock on the door. The familiar rhythm made him startled, and then a relieved smile flashed in his eyes - she was finally here!
"Come in!" He stopped what he was doing and said in a deep voice.
The door of the office was gently pushed open. He raised his eyes and saw that delicate figure.
"Director..." You Tong walked gently to the desk. There was not much distance, but it seemed that she had exhausted all her energy. "I have something to talk to you about."
"Okay, tell me." He leaned on the back of the chair, slowly raised his lips, his tone was soothing, and his eyes seemed to be full of expectation.
You Tong took a deep breath, raised his eyes to meet the two burning black eyes in front of him, his heart was "pounding"
The red lips moved cowardly, "I want to..."
Just after saying two words, the mobile phone in her pocket suddenly rang. It was a special ringtone, a call exclusive to her mother.
Suddenly, a chill ran through the soles of You Tong's feet. She didn't need to answer the phone to know why her mother was calling. Her mother would never speak again until the last moment.
The smile in Rong Yuchi's eyes suddenly stopped for a moment, the light under his dark eyes flashed away, and he looked directly into her eyes, "What do you want?!"
You Tong is in a painful struggle. She has two things on her mind. It is impossible to have the best of both worlds. Now she can only talk about one thing.
