Li Youwei said meaningfully: "Obviously, because you are Secretary An's secretary, and you are deeply trusted by Secretary An. Although he is the secretary-general, you cannot ignore this, not to mention he is still new."
Qiao Liang nodded: "So, he specifically asked me to inform me to attend his dinner party tonight. Does this also mean that?"
"Yes, actually, it doesn't matter to him whether you participate or not in his dinner party tonight. The key is to let you know that he has you in his eyes. This is enough. Moreover, you can't go if you state in front of him
The reason for participating, and he will then go along with it to help you, and you will naturally be grateful to him and have a good impression of him. This can be said to kill two birds with one stone for him." Li Youwei said.
Qiao Liang sighed with emotion: "This guy is really thoughtful."
"Who can get into this position without a sharp mind? And the sharp mind is indispensable." Li Youwei said, "Just understand Zhang Haitao's thoughts in your heart. He showed his kindness to you in this hidden way. You
To understand this relationship, the nature of this person is good, and you have to get along well with him, which will be good for you and everyone."
Qiao Liang nodded in agreement: "I will. Secretary An also told me in front of him today, asking me to report more to him and ask for instructions in the future."
"When Qin Chuan was the secretary-general, Secretary An didn't say that, right?"
"No."
"That's it. This shows that Secretary An appreciates Zhang Haitao and is satisfied with Zhang Haitao's role as secretary-general." Li Youwei said, "Furthermore, based on my previous understanding of Zhang Haitao, this person's temperament is somewhat similar to yours.
It will be much easier for you to deal with him than with Qin Chuan."
Qiao Liang thought of the sincere appreciation he and Zhang Haitao exchanged for teasing each other in the afternoon, and couldn't help but nod. It seemed that was indeed the case.
The two continued to drink, finishing one bottle and opening another.
Li Youwei quit smoking after his accident, but his drinking seemed to increase a lot.
After a while Li Youwei said: "After the huge earthquake in Jiangzhou, the people who killed Xiaoya's father got their due end, and they also pulled out the big borer Jing Haoran. Xiaoya felt very sad about this.
What a great relief. You have played a big role in this."
Hearing Li Youwei mention Fang Xiaoya, Qiao Liang couldn't help but look gloomy. Although he helped Fang Xiaoya avenge her father, Fang Xiaoya left.
Li Youwei continued: "Liang Zi, in fact, you should know very well what Xiaoya thinks about you."
Qiao Liang nodded silently: "I know, I understand, it's just..."
"Maybe I should understand you." Li Youwei interrupted Qiao Liang, and then sighed, "I don't want to say much about the personal issues between you and Xiaoya. It's just that Xiaoya has returned to the United States now. I'm afraid
I won’t be coming back anytime soon.”
"Boss, why? Why did Xiaoya suddenly want to return to the United States? Why can't he come back in the short term?" Qiao Liang looked at Li Youwei.
Li Youwei was silent for a moment: "Xiaoya is going back to the United States this time. The superficial reason is that her father's ghost has been comforted and the group has me to manage her without worries. But in fact, the real reason is that she wants to completely cut off her love for you.
Think about it, and even if you have this intention now, she will not agree to you."
"Why? Why on earth is this?" Qiao Liang asked eagerly.
Li Youwei's expression was a little heavy: "A few days ago, when Xiaoya and I were on a business trip, she suddenly suffered from lower abdominal cramps. I rushed her to the hospital. The examination results showed that Xiaoya had a very bad disease. The root cause of the disease was
In the ovary area, fortunately, it has not spread yet, and the treatment plan given by the doctor is to remove it..."
"Ah!" Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment and looked at Li Youwei.
Li Youwei continued: "When I heard this result, Xiaoya was shocked. I was also very shocked. Considering that Xiaoya was still young and could not easily remove an extremely important organ for women, I asked the doctor if there was anything else that could be better."
A good idea, the doctor suggested, is that there is a large hospital in Beijing that has advanced conservative treatment technology, which can preserve the ovaries. It is better to go to the United States for treatment, where the technology is more advanced, but the premise is that it cannot spread, and even with conservative treatment, Xiaoya is almost
There is no possibility of motherhood..."
Qiao Liang was extremely shocked, his whole body was numb, and he stared at Li Youwei blankly. Huge pain welled up in his heart, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Li Youwei continued: "Considering Xiaoya's health and the stability of the group, Xiaoya and I decided to keep this matter secret inside and outside the group. Xiaoya originally did not want to go to the United States and wanted to go to the capital for treatment, but she thought of herself
With this disease, even if the outcome is the best, she can no longer be with you because she cannot give birth to your child.
So, Xiaoya decided to go to the United States. Firstly, she could get better treatment there. Secondly, she could stay away from you and completely stop thinking about you. This may be the best arrangement for you and her. Xiaoya put
I told me my thoughts truthfully. Taking into account Xiaoya's health and your current situation, I agreed. So I just said that even if you are interested in Xiaoya now, she will never agree to you again..."
Listening to Li Youwei's words, Qiao Liang's body couldn't help but tremble, his mind went blank, and his whole body seemed to have lost consciousness.
So that’s it, here’s the real reason why Fang Xiaoya went to the United States!
Qiao Liang's eye circles suddenly turned red, and his heart ached.
Li Youwei continued: "Originally, I wanted to tell you about this earlier, but Xiaoya disagreed. She didn't want you to worry about her, and she didn't want you to bear a heavy psychological burden. Xiaoya told me, although she is very
She wants to be with you, but you seem to show her more of a kind of friendship and affection. Although she doesn't understand all the reasons, she doesn't want to embarrass you.
Especially after learning that she had this disease, she completely gave up the idea of being with you, decided to treat you as a close friend and brother from the bottom of her heart, and determined not to let herself affect your future marriage and life. Xiaoya is like this
An excellent woman, at this time, she is still thinking about you and thinking about you..."
Listening to Li Youwei's words, Qiao Liang's eyes became even redder, and tears flowed in his heart.
"Why? Why do good people do this? First Zhang Lin left, and now Xiaoya..." Qiao Liang's voice choked.
Li Youwei looked at Qiao Liang silently, and sighed for a long time: "In this world, although bad people will eventually have bad rewards, good people may not necessarily have good rewards. God has no eyes..."
Qiao Liang picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, looking up at the ceiling in silence. At this time, he felt not only the suffocating pain, but also the unspeakable self-blame, and Xiaoya's deep guilt.
After a long while, Qiao Liang exhaled heavily and looked at Li Youwei with misty eyes: "Boss, what should I do now? What should I do for Xiaoya?"
Li Youwei said calmly: "Since Xiaoya has made up her mind and has gone to the United States, you can't do anything now, and you can't do anything. Perhaps the only thing you can do is to pray for Xiaoya like me.
, pray that she can be safe, pray that she can recover..."
"No, what can I do? What can I do? I can resign and go to the United States. I want to stay with Xiaoya and treat her until she recovers." Qiao Liang said impulsively.
Li Youwei slowly shook his head: "A momentary impulse cannot solve the problem. If you do this, it will not only be useless for Xiaoya's treatment, but will also disappoint her."
"Why?"
"Because Xiaoya knows that feelings cannot be forced, and she knows that you only do this out of conscience and friendship, not the kind of feelings she needs. Moreover, she knows that you are a person who is very dedicated to your career, and you give up on yourself so easily. She will be very unhappy and deeply disappointed with the career she has been fighting for..."
Qiao Liang looked at Li Youwei blankly. Although he was indeed a little impulsive just now, and although Li Youwei's words made sense, he still felt extremely sad.
After drinking the last drop of wine, Qiao Liang did not eat. He left Li Youwei's house and stumbled down the deserted street late at night. He looked up at the twinkling stars in the deep night sky and thought about Fang Xiaoya, who was now far away across the ocean. , my heart ached, and tears rolled down my face.
"Ah——" Qiao Liang let out a heart-rending howl into the night sky...
