After the meeting, Qu Ranran hurriedly caught up with Manager Chen holding the documents. "Manager..."
Manager Chen turned his head and asked gently, "What's wrong?"
Qu Ranran apologized and said, "You just said at the meeting that you would hand over the design of the Lingtian Group to me. I'm afraid I won't be able to do it myself."
Manager Chen stopped and said in a gentle tone, "Why can't you do the job?"
Qu Ranran explained, "I have just studied design for less than half a year, and I still don't understand many things. What's more, Lingtian is a big order. Where can I leave it to someone like me who is just getting involved in design..."
Manager Chen smiled, "You have been working hard to learn design in the past few months, and your talent is also very good. Recently, I have seen a few orders you designed, and they are all very good... I have always wanted to give you a chance to prove yourself."
Ability, we happened to have received the new order of 'Lingtian'. It is precisely because I know that this order is very important that I gave this order to you. Only if you successfully accept this order can other colleagues in the company look at you differently.
, so they won’t keep trying to talk about your relationship with the boss behind the scenes.”
"I understand your intentions, manager, but..."
Manager Chen patted Qu Ranran's shoulder with trust, "Don't worry, I know you still have some shortcomings in design experience, but this time you go to City Y, I will ask the other two designers to accompany you. If there are any shortcomings,
They will correct it for you, so you don't have to worry that the design will dissatisfy 'Ling Tian', you just have to try your best..."
Manager Chen had already spoken to this extent, and Qu Ranran could no longer refuse.
Manager Chen soothed, "Don't have confidence in yourself, I believe in your talent for design."
Qu Ranran nodded slightly.
Manager Chen said kindly, "Okay, go and think about the design of 'Lingtian', and set off for City Y in the next two days."
"Um."
…
Returning to his seat, Qu Ranran leaned on the back of his chair, thoughtfully.
Xiao Luoke moved to Qu Ranran's side and asked curiously, "I heard that the manager asked you to take the 'Ling Tian' order at the meeting, is that right?"
"Um."
Xiao Luoke said enviously, "The manager is so kind to you. He makes you responsible for such an important order. If you successfully win this order, I think your colleagues in the company will be even more envious and jealous of you in the future."
Qu Ranran held her forehead in annoyance, "Do you think this is a good thing?"
Xiao Luoke nodded vigorously, "People in the company have always thought that you came to QCS through connections. If you prove your ability this time, even if the people in the company are still dissatisfied with you in their hearts, at least they won't on the surface.
I'm squeezing you out."
"Hopefully!"
"Why do I think you're still worried? What's wrong, are you really worried that you won't be able to take this order?"
Qu Ranran shook his head and sat upright, "Since the manager believes in me, I will do my best."
Xiao Luoke stretched out his hand, "Come on, give me a high five. I wish you a smooth trip to Y City."
Qu Ranran high-fived Xiao Luoke and said with a smile, "You are the only one who is not afraid of being implicated and excluded by me."
Xiao Luoke leaned close to Qu Ranran's ear and whispered, "It's not that I'm not afraid, but I think differently from them. I thought that if you really have something to do with the boss behind the scenes, if I win over you, you can prosper in the future."
!”
Qu Ranran was amused by Xiao Luoke's words, "Then just wait!"
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
Qu Ranran has already booked a flight to City Y.
Because the flight only takes about an hour and a half, she decided to leave tomorrow morning, so that she could talk to the relevant person in charge of "Lingtian" as soon as she arrived in Y City, and maybe she could free up her time in the afternoon to meet her sister.
.
When packing her luggage in the evening, she remembered that Qiao Che had bought breakfast for her in the past two days, and she decided to go say hello to Qiao Che.
After knocking on the door twice, she thought Qiao Che might be on duty at the hospital, but she didn't expect Qiao Che to open the door soon.
Qiao Che was a little surprised to see Qu Ranran, "It's actually you?"
Qu Ranran was confused, "Am I weird? We are next-door neighbors!"
With his usual warm smile on his face, Qiao Che turned around and walked into the suite quietly, saying, "This must be the first time you've knocked on my door since we became next-door neighbors."
"Uh..." Qu Ranran followed and walked in, looking embarrassed, "I usually have nothing to do!"
Qiao Che walked to the wine cabinet in the room and said humorously, "Then what big event will make Miss Qu come to my humble home tonight?"
Qu Ranran walked to Qiao Che with a smile, "What's the big deal? I'm going on a business trip for a few days, so I wanted to say hello to you."
Qiao Che opened a bottle of red wine and asked, "Where are you going on a business trip?"
Qu Ranran replied, "Y city."
"That's close."
"Well, I'm only going to go there for three to five days."
"You're afraid that I'll miss out on buying breakfast for you tomorrow, so why don't you say hello to me in advance?"
"I'm so embarrassed to let you fall short!"
Qiao Che looked at Qu Ranran and said, "You still have some conscience!"
Qu Ranran chuckled and said, "Dr. Qiao, in order to thank you for your concern and care for me, I decided to buy you a gift in City Y. I hope you won't dislike it then!"
"Okay, it's rare for you to be generous."
"You know how to embarrass me."
Qiao Che poured two glasses of red wine and handed one to Qu Ranran, "I wish you a smooth trip."
Qu Ranran looked at the jumping red liquid in the wine glass and shook his head slightly, "You know how much I drink, so I won't drink anymore."
She is the kind of person who can get drunk after just a few sips of wine. What's more, the experience in France has taught her a lesson, and now she is especially afraid of touching alcohol.
Qiao Che curled his lips, "It seems I have to drink alone."
Qu Ranran was amused by Qiao Che's words. Suddenly, her eyes stopped on the wine cabinet and she spat out in surprise, "Doctor Qiao, it turns out you also like red wine!"
"I just like collecting."
Qu Ranran walked to the front of the wine cabinet curiously and said, "Wow, these wines are so expensive... Just one bottle should be worth a few months of my salary. Dr. Qiao, being a doctor has a high salary."
Gray income?”
"I don't have any gray income, but I have a family background."
Qu Ranran suddenly realized, "I almost forgot, you are a rich man." A French upper-class person with a strong family background.
Qiao Che refused to deny it and smiled, "Since you can see that these red wines are valuable, do you understand wine?"
Qu Ranran replied subconsciously, "I don't understand, it's just that I used to..."
"Um?"
When I was with Guan Hao in the past, I was somewhat influenced by it.
Qu Ranran said, "It's nothing."
Qiao Che glanced at Qu Ranran and smiled secretly, "Remember that person?"
Qu Ranran's face turned slightly pale, "Why do you say this so carefully?"
Qiao Che took a sip from the wine glass and slowly spit out, "It has been reported in the news that 'Haotian' has moved its first branch to Paris, France. It seems that Guan Hao will not have the chance to come to T city in the future.
Too much."
At this moment, Qu Ranran said anxiously, "Oh, it's very late. Doctor Qiao, I won't tell you anymore. I'll go back and pack my luggage. I have to go to bed early..."
"Go ahead."
…
Only Qu Ranran knew how much panic she felt when she came back.
Closing the door, leaning against the door panel, Qu Ranran took a deep breath.
She is really useless, she is just discussing this person, what's the big deal.
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
Qu Ranran had already flown to City Y at ten o'clock the next morning.
Qu Ranran came here with two designers. She originally thought that her immature communication and design skills would need the assistance of two designers. Who would have thought that these two designers would ask for help on the grounds of airsickness and discomfort?
Take a short break at the hotel.
Qu Ranran naturally knew that even if the two designers went to "Lingtian" with her, they would just stand by and watch, or even wait for her to be embarrassed. Out of frustration, she had no choice but to go to "Lingtian" first.
After putting the luggage into the hotel where he was staying, Qu Ranran called the relevant person in charge of "Lingtian".
It went smoothly, and the person in charge said she could come over at any time.
Thinking that he could find Qin Zixin as soon as possible after negotiating with him early, Qu Ranran rushed to "Lingtian" without taking any rest.
Qu Ranran used to be an employee of "Lingtian", and everyone was familiar with her, so it would not cause unnecessary trouble. When Qu Ranran came here, she deliberately put on thicker makeup and wore sunglasses, just like when she was around Ji Lingtian before.
The refreshing and neat look is quite different.
Sure enough, the front desk lady didn't recognize her. After she explained the reason, the front desk lady made a call to the relevant person in charge of her appointment, and then the front desk lady led her to the elevator.
…
After more than a year, Qu Ranran felt an inexplicable peace of mind as he stood on the territory of "Ling Tian" again.
Yes, this place actually brought her many memories. She still remembered how Ji Lingtian took care of her...
Mr. Ai's assistant poured her a glass of water and said to her very politely, "Miss Qu, please wait here. Mr. Ai will be here soon."
"OK."
After Mr. Ai's assistant left, Qu Ranran put down her water glass and looked around again at this place she was once familiar with.
The huge floor-to-ceiling windows made her get up involuntarily...
When she was with Ji Lingtian in the past, she found that Ji Lingtian and Guan Hao were the same. They both liked to stand in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and think about problems, but she had never paid attention to the view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Standing suspiciously in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looking at the unobstructed view in front of the glass curtain, she actually felt a sense of independence from the world. It was quiet and peaceful. The whole world seemed to be frozen there, which made people open their minds and suddenly feel at ease.
Cheerful, but there is also a bit of loneliness.
"Ran Ran."
Suddenly a mellow and hoarse voice sounded behind Qu Ranran.
The familiar voice made Qu Ranran stiffen. She slowly turned around and looked at the person.
Ji Lingtian was frozen in place, as if he hadn't looked at her as well as he did now for a long time, his eyes were incredibly deep.
Qu Ranran said calmly, "I thought I was dating Mr. Ai."
Ji Lingtian walked up to Qu Ranran, stared at her, and explained slowly, "He heard your voice and learned that your surname was Qu, so he told me."
Qu Ranran frowned, "Didn't you arrange it deliberately?"
"I do know that you are in 'qcs', and I did let 'Lingtian' cooperate with 'qcs' for your sake, but I did not expect that you would come to Y City as a designer.
.”
Qu Ranran moved her eyes away from him, lowered her eyelashes, and said calmly, "Long time no see."
Ji Lingtian's eyes were fixed on Qu Ranran's thin and beautiful face for a moment, and he spat out with pity, "Don't you know how to take care of yourself?"
Faced with Ji Lingtian's concern, Qu Ranran said coldly, "I don't think I have time to catch up with you. I want to visit my sister later. Can we talk about design?"
Ji Lingtian said directly, "You are already here, do you still need to talk?"
Qu Ranran suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Ji Lingtian, "I hope you will do business properly."
Ji Lingtian suddenly held Qu Ranran's weakened shoulders, "Why do you feel impatient when you see me like this?"
Qu Ranran was silent.
Ji Lingtian's voice was slightly gravelly, "In the past six months, I have called you countless times and sent you countless messages, but you have never responded to me. Do you hate seeing me so much?"
"Mr. Ji, I told you that you should spend your time on people who are worthy of your cherishment." Of course Qu Ranran was referring to Qin Zixin.
"No, that's not the reason... you are angry with me, so you don't want to see me or talk to me."
Qu Ranran gently broke away from Ji Lingtian, turned around, and replied, "I have nothing to be angry with you, I'm just thinking about my sister."
Ji Lingtian narrowed his eyes and looked at Qu Ranran slyly, "Of course you are angry, how could you not be angry? If I hadn't gone to City T to brutally tell the truth about your father's murder, you and Guan Hao might have been happy now.
!”
Qu Ranran turned around suddenly and looked at Ji Lingtian coldly, "Even if that was the fact you learned, at that time, did you dare to say that you didn't deliberately sabotage it?"
Ji Lingtian rushed to Qu Ranran and grabbed her arms tightly, "I just meant it, what's wrong?"
Qu Ranran looked straight into Ji Lingtian's deep eyes full of possessive desire, the grief and loss of that memory still reflected in her clear and gloomy eyes.
Ji Lingtian's voice was hoarse, "It's a fact that he cheated on you."
"So you already knew that the initiator of this matter was your mother. You expected that Guan Hao could not explain this matter to me in order to protect your mother and family harmony, thus achieving your despicable purpose!!"
"Am I despicable?" Ji Lingtian smiled coldly, "Compared to everything Guan Hao has done to you, am I considered despicable?"
Qu Ranran turned his head to the side.
Ji Lingtian turned Qu Ranran's face full of hatred and forced her to look at him. The pain escaped, "Guan Hao has played with your feelings again and again, but I am always careful with you and never dare to force you."
Is this despicable at all? You finally agreed to date me, but Guan Hao took you to Mo Island and forcibly took you away from me. When you came back, he looked at the look of nostalgia you showed towards him,
But I can only swallow my anger. Is this called despicable? When you were giving birth alone in Alton, you said you wanted to live a quiet and stable life. I didn’t dare to disturb you, so I could only force myself to stay far away from you. This
Is it also considered despicable? If everything I did is called despicable, then what does what Guan Hao did to you count?"
Ji Lingtian smiled ferociously, "I had a miscarriage, divorced, ignored you, let you give birth alone in a foreign land, and played with your feelings again and again... To this day, I still don't take you seriously, and I even kissed other women.
Kissing me, isn't this his despicableness, but his care and love for you?"
Qu Ranran choked and spat out, "If it weren't for you, he and I wouldn't be where we are today..."
Ji Lingtian smiled up at his leader and spat out sarcasm, "So now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, why are you not together? Since it is true love, he should keep you by his side at all costs, so why is the woman by his side now someone else?
Don't tell me that he still loves you, because I can already see the hurt he has done to you from your lost eyes!!"
"That's enough!!" Qu Ranran struggled to break away from Ji Lingtian and slowly retreated. During the process of retreating, her vision was blurred by tears. She tried her best to widen her eyes to prevent tears from falling, and suppressed the tightness in her throat.
, escaped slowly, "I did have times when I was naive, but I have never regretted every decision I made in the past. You don't have to remind me how embarrassed I am now." Then, Qu Ranran turned towards the door.
.
"Ran Ran..."
The second before leaving the reception room, Qu Ranran stopped, turned his back to Ji Lingtian, and said in a calm tone, "I will talk to you about design again. I hope that next time you and I will not talk about it again."
It’s a private matter.”
Watching Qu Ranran leave, Ji Lingtian punched the wall with his fist.
