"What I need are people who can work for Haotian, not employees who are paid high salaries but can't even produce a business plan to promote the Upper Normandy project?"
Sitting behind the oval table in suits and leather shoes, Guan Hao spoke seriously.
The executives on both sides of the oval table were all trembling.
"I hope that within this month, you can give me a satisfactory plan, otherwise you will all pack your bags and leave!!"
Guan Hao seemed to have a kind of innate majesty, which made the dozens of outstanding employees in front of him, who were known to have excellent minds and abilities in front of the world, all like children who had made mistakes. They didn't dare to breathe and lowered their heads.
"Fortunately, although you have been delayed in the publicity plan, the project in Upper Normandy has been progressing smoothly. It is undeniable that these are all the contributions of everyone here. Based on the hard work you have done in the first half of the year for 'Haotian'
Making profits has enabled 'Haotian' to increase its performance by 20% compared to previous years, which is a remarkable achievement... Therefore, all employees' bonuses will be doubled at the end of the year, and everyone should be encouraged to continue to work hard for 'Haotian'."
Guan Hao suddenly changed his tone, and all the employees suddenly looked up.
Suddenly, you looked at me and I looked at you, as if you couldn't believe you could get such encouragement after being scolded.
At this moment, Guan Hao buttoned up his suit, stood up, and strode away.
The secretary quickly followed.
Following this, huge cheers came from the dull and serious office.
"Long live the boss!"
"Boss, we will always serve you!"
…
As the cheers behind him grew louder, a faint smile appeared on Guan Hao's lips.
Secretary Chen Lin followed Guan Hao and was also excited about the doubled bonus. She couldn't help but ask, "President, you almost scared them to death just now."
"Really? Am I such a fierce person?"
Chen Lin didn't dare to answer.
The smile on Guan Hao's lips grew thicker, "If their energy is not dampened, they will not work harder for Haotian."
Chen Lin laughed, "The CEO's move made them feel as if they had gone from hell to heaven!"
Guan Hao smiled and said nothing and walked into his office.
Chen Lin walked in, placed a dozen documents on Guan Hao's desk, and said, "President, you seem to be in an inexplicably good mood lately?"
Guan Hao opened a document and signed the bottom, buried his head in the document, and replied, "Oh, do you feel like this?"
Chen Lin nodded vigorously, "Yes, I have worked for you, CEO, for so many years, and I have never seen you in such a good mood!" It seemed that the boss's mood had become very good since he came back last time.
Guan Hao just smiled again.
Chen Lin suddenly asked in a gossipy tone, "President, is it because you and Miss Qiao are about to have a good relationship?"
"Too much talk!"
"Hey, I'm just asking for the gossipy colleagues behind me." Chen Lin has been following Guan Hao for many years, and she has also been stained with dark things. She immediately blamed all the accusations on those colleagues who only dare to gossip and never dare to ask.
Enter innocent colleague.
Guan Hao's handsome face, which was originally smiling, became slightly unnatural, and his voice suddenly became serious, "Let's go do something!"
"Yes." Chen Lin, who was good at observing words and expressions, felt that something was slightly wrong with her boss and hurriedly turned around and left.
…
After finishing processing the piles of documents in front of him, Guan Hao leaned tiredly on the chair behind him.
Suddenly, he picked up the mobile phone on the table and opened the video stored in it.
This is a very heartwarming picture.
On a beautiful morning, Qu Ranran got up from the bed.
She stretched lazily like a kitten, then lowered her head and said to the baby in her belly, "Baby, it's another beautiful day. Let's work hard for the future together!"
After saying good morning to her little baby, Qu Ranran looked at the camera.
"By the way, little baby, this is the stuffed toy your daddy bought... He's so stupid. He actually bought such a big and cute bear for you to play with right now, and it's something girls like..."
Guan Haoning looked at Qu Ranran's faint smile in the picture, and was deeply fascinated.
It took a long time to turn off the video, but there was a rare tenderness in his eyes.
"boss."
Zou Ji walked in from outside, interrupting Guan Hao's meditation.
Guan Hao adjusted his sitting posture and his eyes returned to their usual coldness, "Have you found it?"
Zou Ji shook his head, "If Mr. Ji intends to escape, I'm afraid no one will be able to find out."
Yes, Guan Hao spent so many years looking for Ji Lingtian's whereabouts, but he never found any clues.
If it weren't for Qu Ranran, Ji Lingtian might never have revealed his identity.
Guan Hao sighed, "Forget it, he will come back naturally when he wants to come back. There is no need to check again."
"yes."
"Inform Binchen to fill up the plane with fuel. I will leave New York in an hour."
Zou Ji smiled and said, "The president must go to meet the person he wants to meet!"
Guan Hao's expression was still serious, but his tone was soothing, "You talk so much?"
Feeling that Guan Hao was in a good mood, Zou Ji couldn't help but add another sentence, "The president hasn't seen Miss Qiao for a long time, and he missed her, right?"
Guan Hao glanced at his capable subordinate, "When did I say I was going to France?"
"ah?"
“Go to Alton!”
Zou Jiding stayed on the spot for a second, and his voice turned into a whisper, "Yes, I am informing Bin Chen."
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
Alton.
Qu Ranran was sitting on the sofa by the window in the hall in a daze.
Time flies so fast, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye...
It seems like the last time he came here happened yesterday...
I haven't seen any news about him in New York newspapers recently. Is he busy with work, or is he no longer in New York?
If it's not in New York, it should be in France, right?
I heard that a newspaper was willing to pay a high price for the news about his wedding announcement. He should be immersed in happiness and sweetness now, right?
"Ran Ran, Ran Ran..."
It took a few calls from my sister to call Qu Ranran back from his dazed state.
"sister!"
Qin Zixin, who was making dinner, poked his head out of the kitchen and said, "The door is almost broken. Qianqian is reviewing her homework upstairs again. Go and open the door."
"OK."
Qu Ranran put down her feet from the sofa, stood up, and walked towards the door.
Through the door panel, Guan Hao could clearly hear the footsteps coming from inside.
Then, his longing figure and sweet voice appeared behind the open door.
"who……"
When Qu Ranran saw the man in front of her, all her questions were stuck in her throat.
"Me." Guan Hao responded naturally.
Qu Ranran stared blankly at the handsome face that was still lingering in her mind just a moment ago, and said blankly, "How...how could it be you?"
Qin Zixin didn't hear the sound of anyone coming in. He was afraid that something might happen to Qu Ranran, so he walked out of the kitchen with a spatula and asked, "Ranran, who is it?"
Qin Zixin just walked to the door and was startled by Guan Hao who appeared at this moment.
"Uh..." Qin Zixin didn't know what to say.
"For me who have come all the way, won't you invite me in for tea?" Guan Hao asked pretending to be polite, ignoring the unnatural state of the two of them.
Qu Ranran was a little at a loss.
Qin Zixin glanced at Qu Ranran secretly, and saw that Qu Ranran didn't show much resistance, so he said, "Of course!" With that, Qin Zixin opened the door wider.
Guan Hao walked in grandly.
Unavoidably embarrassed, Qin Zixin said first, "Well, I'm still busy with dinner, so you can catch up on old times..."
Guan Hao's eyes had already been fixed on Qu Ranran's slightly pale face.
Qu Ranran retracted her gaze that had been fixed on Guan Hao just now and said nothing.
Qin Zixin added, "By the way, I don't mind making an extra dinner."
After saying that, Qin Zixin walked to the kitchen.
After Qin Zixin turned around, Qu Ranran also turned around and walked into the hall.
In response to Qu Ranran's disregard, Guan Hao immediately grabbed Qu Ranran's hand after walking into the hall.
It had been a long time since he had been touched like this, and when he was caught again by his familiar and domineering strength, Qu Ranran immediately froze in place.
Feeling that Qu Ranran's body was trembling slightly, Guan Hao walked up to her after she stopped walking, stared deeply into her clear eyes that turned away, and asked, "You don't want to see me so much?"
Qu Ranran glanced away, "Do I want to see you?" God knew she was so nervous that her body was shaking.
Guan Hao's breathing tightened. Couldn't she be more polite to him when she spoke?
As if hearing Guan Hao's inner protest, Qu Ranran turned back and glanced at him, "Did you forget the agreement? Didn't you agree not to see me?"
Guan Hao's sly black eyes narrowed, and an evil light shone through, "When did it say in the agreement that I can't see you?"
"you……"
It seems that he never said it...but wasn't that what he meant that day?
As if he liked seeing Qu Ranran holding his breath, Guan Hao raised the corner of his mouth with a hint of concern.
"My sister invited you in, you can do whatever you want."
Putting aside these words, Qu Ranran turned around and walked into the bathroom.
Walking into the bathroom, Qu Ranran took a breath to ease the tension facing him. Who would have thought that when she was about to wash her face to stay awake, there was a sudden "bang" of the door closing behind her.
Qu Ranran turned around in fright, looked at the tall figure squeezing in front of her, and immediately hesitated, "You...you knew I was in there, didn't you know how to avoid it?"
In the small bathroom, Guan Hao's slow and deep voice echoed.
"What should we avoid between you and me?"
"Mr. Guan, we have nothing to do with each other now. Don't make it seem like we are still involved." She just wanted to make a clear distinction with him, so that she could slowly forget about it.
Guan Hao's face turned gloomy. She spoke very coldly, which made him extremely unhappy.
Qu Ranran crossed him to leave the small bathroom.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Guan Hao's arms clasped together, causing her to fall into his arms.
He kissed her lips sullenly and hard, and held the back of her head with his thick palms.
His breath hit her overwhelmingly, and her resistance was gradually swallowed up by him.
He still felt attached to her, so beautiful, but after a few months, he had not lost the desire for her at all. Facing her, at this moment, he didn't want to be a gentleman at all.
He impatiently pried open her shell, exploring and going deep. Qu Ranran felt that her chest was getting more and more stuffy due to the loss of oxygen, and the feeling of suffocation also came.
She never thought he would use such force...
The force was so strong that when he held her in his arms, she couldn't even move.
Because of the urgent collision at that moment, she felt that her delicate lips were broken. She originally wanted to bite her lips tightly, but she did not dare to exert force due to the pain on her lips, which gave him an opportunity.
, the teeth were pried open, he grabbed her uvula fiercely, and tortured her so hard that she felt her tongue numb.
"No……"
The sound of resistance that Qu Ranran tried to escape was swallowed up again because Guan Hao became more and more wild.
Guan Hao was secretly pleased with Qu Ranran's surrender at this moment. Unexpectedly, he cursed in pain because she actually bit his lip hard.
The smell of blood immediately overflowed in their mouths...
Guan Hao still hugged her tightly and wouldn't let go.
"Guan Hao, do you still think you haven't hurt me enough? Do you have to watch me fall down here and be unable to get up before you are satisfied?"
Qu Ranran's choked voice was something Guan Hao couldn't resist.
Thinking that Guan Hao was already surrounded by a beautiful woman like a flower but he was still here to provoke her affectionately, Qu Ranran couldn't help but wipe away the traces of the slightly swollen lips with her hands, then pushed him away and walked out of the bathroom angrily.
…
Qin Zixin didn't understand what was happening now, because the atmosphere during today's dinner was too weird.
Qu Ranran had been immersed in eating, without even glancing at Guan Hao across from him.
Guan Hao glanced at Qu Ranran a few times, but his expression was dull, making it difficult to guess what he was thinking.
The atmosphere is inexplicably stiff...
Fortunately, Qin Ziqian broke the silence——
"Uncle Guan, would you like to stay here for a few more days this time?"
Guan Hao secretly glanced at Qu Ranran.
At this moment, Qu Ranran frowned and even stopped eating.
Qin Zixin hurriedly answered for Guan Hao, "Qianqian, you don't know how busy your uncle Guan is, don't talk nonsense."
Qin Ziqian tilted his head and looked at Guan Hao innocently, "Uncle Guan, didn't you say that all employees in the company are submissive and have no meaning at all?"
"Qianqian..." Qin Zixin's tone increased.
Guan Hao withdrew his gaze from Qu Ranran's face and answered Qin Ziqian in a low voice, "Then Uncle Guan will stay with Qianqian for two more days."
"Okay, Uncle Guan is the best!" Qin Ziqian kissed Guan Hao on the face.
Qin Zixin has a black streak on her head.
Snap!
There was a sound that sounded like tableware being dropped in displeasure.
Qu Ranran stood up at this moment.
Qin Zixin asked, "Ranran, are you full?"
"Well, sister, you eat slowly, I'll go back to my room to rest first."
Qin Zixin looked at Guan Hao's face out of the corner of her eye and nodded to Qu Ranran.
The subtle changes in the expression on Guan Hao Junyi's face were naturally not noticed by others, so Qin Zixin couldn't see the slightest clue.
After Qu Ranran returned to the room, Qin Zixin looked at Guan Hao and said, "I have bought this house with your money, and I will hire someone to decorate a children's room later."
Guan Hao responded lightly, "Yeah."
"Uncle Guan..." Qin Ziqian called suddenly.
Facing the child, Guan Hao lost his irritability and said in a gentle tone, "Huh?"
"Mommy said that auntie has a baby in her belly...but auntie doesn't have a boyfriend, so why is there a baby?"
Now even Guan Hao, who was always very good at dealing with children, didn't know how to answer.
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
The next day.
Today is the day of Qu Ranran’s five-month prenatal check-up.
Qu Ranran was very excited at the thought of hearing the doctor talk about the baby's growth again today.
Today, before Qin Ziqian came to call the door, Qu Ranran had already come down from the second floor.
Qin Zixin had already prepared breakfast. Seeing that Qu Ranran was in a good mood, he couldn't help teasing her, "Sure enough, when someone comes, you will feel better. It's a pity that someone didn't stay last night!"
"Sister, where are you thinking? I just want to go to the hospital as soon as possible." Qu Ranran muttered.
Qin Zixin patted her head and said, "Oh, I forgot, you are going to have a prenatal check-up today!"
…
Qin Zixin opened the door.
Qu Ranran spit out in embarrassment, "Sister, I can do it by myself. Didn't you find a job and want to interview today?"
Qin Zixin answered seriously, "I can go for the interview next time, but I don't worry about you going to the prenatal checkup alone."
Qu Ranran muttered, "There isn't much road."
Qin Zixin's eyes widened, "I know, I insist."
"Oh well……"
"Be careful on the steps, big-bellied woman."
"Um."
Qin Zixin supported Qu Ranran and just walked down the steps in front of the house when a car whistle sounded.
The two women looked at the source of the sound at the same time.
They saw an expensive car with a low-profile brand driving towards them and suddenly stopped in front of them.
The car window rolled down, and Guan Hao's outstanding face also appeared.
Qin Zixin suddenly let go of Qu Ranran's hand, patted it, and said, "OK, it seems I can go to the interview. Someone will accompany you today."
ps: Yesterday, I received a lot of purse coffee from friends. Thank you very much for your encouragement. Bing will continue to work hard! The next chapter will be interesting, hehe...
