After dinner this evening, I sat in a daze on a wicker chair in the yard outside. I was not in a very good mood, or I really didn't want to leave the life I was living now.
If I really can live for two years at most, how will An Lan live in the future?
Now she is pregnant again, that is, she has two children. It is very tiring for her to have two children alone!
Thinking of these things, I feel as if my heart has been filled with lead.
Suddenly, a pair of hands hugged me from behind, and then a faint fragrance came close to my neck.
"Why do you feel that you are in a bad mood?" An Lan's gentle voice immediately reached my ears.
I was in a daze for a while and then said, "No!"
She came over from behind me, sat next to me, looked at me and said, "You still say no? You are just in a bad mood. I could see it when we were eating just now."
I laughed and said, "No, I'm just too hot. Let's go out and cool down for a while."
"Don't be stubborn. Since Xiaoman came back, although she has not recognized you, you have always been very patient and never got angry with her. But today"
"Do you blame me for yelling at her?" I took over and asked.
"That's not what I meant. I just feel that you are not in a good mood."
After a pause, An Lan asked me again: "Do you not want a second child?"
"No."
"Then what's wrong with you? Is it because of the company's affairs?"
Since she decided that I was in a bad mood, I stopped pretending and nodded and replied: "Well, look, our group is facing a lot of things now. If we don't control the situation in Europe as soon as possible,
Market, it is very likely that in the end we will have to listen to the rupee on everything, just like before with Fenix, nothing has changed."
An Lan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "So you are unhappy about this matter!"
She was silent for a while and then continued: "Actually, it's not a big deal. The money we make now is enough for our family to live on for a lifetime. If possible, I would like to quit the mall."
An Lan's words surprised me, because I never thought she would say such things. From the time I met her to now, she is not a person who likes to settle down.
Seeing me looking at her with a strange look, she smiled again and said, "What? Don't you believe what I said?"
I nodded, and An Lan said again: "I really didn't think so before. At that time, all I thought about was to revive our An's Group, so I worked hard. I didn't even think about getting married, but now I don't
It’s the same now, I have a family and children, so my ideas are not as radical as before.”
"But have you ever thought about it? If we withdraw from the group now, the group will undergo earth-shaking changes, and it will even affect the development of the entire group because we have no successor at all."
An Lan shrugged and said, "Is it important? Since we have decided to withdraw, the development of the group is no longer important to us."
I suddenly felt that An Lan was right. Maybe I was just unwilling to give in. After all, I had put in so much effort and saw that the development of the group was getting better day by day. But at this time, I had to retreat unscathed. No one would be willing to do it.
.
In silence, An Lan said again: "Let's do this! Let's train a successor next. By then, the foreign market should be stable. Is it okay to withdraw at that time?"
I looked at An Lan intently, and her eyes told me that this was what she was thinking.
I stared at her for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, but do you have a favorite successor?"
An Lan pondered for a moment and said: "At present, only Gao Sheng is the only one, but he"
An Lan stopped talking, so I answered: "It's okay, just say it."
"He has the ability, but he lacks the energy to take on big responsibilities."
An Lan is right, Gao Sheng is capable, but he is lacking in management.
But apart from him, there is currently no one in the group who can take over.
I took a long breath and then said: "Let's take this matter step by step. Don't be anxious. We still have plenty of time anyway."
I say this purely to comfort myself. I really don't have much time.
An Lan nodded disapprovingly, then subconsciously held my arm and rested his head gently on my shoulder.
The moonlight tonight was surprisingly bright, and the light covered up the lights of the city, allowing me to see a peaceful world outside the city.
There are no desires, no dreams in this world, only endless peace
After all, I didn't tell An Lan about my situation. She is pregnant now and cannot bear such a blow.
Even if he wanted to tell her, he would have to wait until she gave birth to the child.
After going to work the next day, I just arrived downstairs of the company and saw the security guard of the building chasing away a pregnant woman with a big belly.
I didn't know what was going on, and I didn't intend to take care of it.
But when I was passing by, I heard the pregnant woman saying to the security guard in a begging tone: "Brother, please send me a message. It took me a long time to find him here. I know he works here to beg for help."
Please, brother!"
The security guard seemed helpless and said to the pregnant woman: "Girl, it's not that I won't let you in. I've told you so many times that you can directly call the person you are looking for and ask him to come down and pick you up."
This will put us in a very difficult position!"
It is also a rule for security guards not to allow outsiders to enter casually, and security guards also act according to the rules.
"Brother, I don't have his phone number. I just saw him on TV and then found out that he works here. Can you please send me a message?" The pregnant woman was still begging.
Just as I was walking by, the security guard suddenly stopped me: "Director Chen."
"What's going on?" I stopped and asked the security guard.
The security guard pointed at the pregnant woman and said to me: "This eldest sister said she wants to see the vice president of your company, do you know her?"
I was stunned for a moment, then looked at the pregnant woman.
He looks about 20 years old, and his face is red from the plateau. He obviously came down from the plateau, but if you look closely, you can see that he is somewhat pretty.
But of course I don't know her, I'm just looking for Gao Sheng. Although it has nothing to do with me, I can go over and ask about the situation.
So I walked up to the girl and asked her, "Sister, who are you looking for?"
The girl looked at me eagerly, as if she thought I was also here to drive her away, so she hurriedly said to me: "Brother, I am really not a bad person, I just want to find someone, please help inform him, please."
"
I smiled and then said to her: "I'm not here to drive you away. I just heard from the security guard that you were looking for Gao Sheng, right?"
"I don't know his name? I have his picture."
With that said, she took out her mobile phone, opened the photo album, and handed the phone over.
I took the phone and took a look. The person in the photo was indeed Gao Sheng. Even if he looked similar, he couldn't be that similar.
I felt more and more strange, so I asked her again: "Since you don't know his name, why are you looking for him?"
She lowered her head and looked at her belly, then stretched out her hand to touch her belly, and said with an aggrieved look: "I spoiled his child."
