At this time, the waiter came with the dishes, a lobster salad, a caviar, and a few dishes made of materials I didn’t know. There was also a bottle of red wine, and the label on the bottle was definitely not in English. Lin Yi looked at it.
He smiled and said, "This is the extent of our Western restaurants in Jiangnan Province."
Yang Shuguang said: "Then let's change places. Chinese people still prefer to eat Chinese food."
Lin Yi shook his head and said: "Forget it, that's it for today. Let's talk about it another day."
To be honest, I think Yang Shuguang is right. The dishes in front of us are not suitable for drinking at all. I have seen foreigners drinking in movies and TV, and it seems that most of them don’t use any dishes. Last time I went to New Zealand
The same is true for the foreigners I met at that time.
We started drinking the bottle of red wine and continued eating. Lin Yi asked: "What did we talk about just now?"
I said: "It seems that Director Yang's position was just introduced."
Lin Yi shook his head, "Feng Xiao, I understand. You are actually quite traditional and conservative, and you don't want to get along with me as a friend. I can't blame you, after all, I am your elder."
Only then did I realize that his question just now had another meaning, but it was also my fault: Why did you answer in such a hurry? If Yang Shuguang had answered, he might not have said this.
At this time Yang Shuguang said: "Dean Feng, I think you should regard Chairman Lin as your friend. Just like my father-in-law and I. Chairman Lin is right. In fact, in the end we are all men, and men and
It is normal for men to treat each other with sincerity."
I nodded, but I still felt a little awkward, "Yeah. You're right."
Yang Shuguang smiled faintly, "Actually, each of us is very lonely. Each of us comes to this world as a lonely traveler. Chairman Lin, do you think so?"
Lin Yi looked at him in surprise, "Oh? Tell me."
Yang Shuguang then said: "Each of us came into this world alone. Before that, we had no relationship with our parents at all. Then we grew up slowly, and our parents accompanied us until adulthood, and then fell in love and got married.
At this time, we had our own woman by our side, but where was this woman before I became an adult? She had nothing to do with us. Later, I had a child, and our child suddenly appeared in our lives, and
He will come to interfere in our lives in the future. Tell me, our children had nothing to do with us in the past twenty or thirty years, so why would they interfere in our lives? Later, we will grow old, and then
Return to the soil. Thinking about it this way, aren’t we just lonely travelers in this life?”
I suddenly felt that this person was very cold: How could he look at the problem like this? So I said, "Director Yang, I don't think you are right? In fact, the reason why our lives are wonderful is because we are all experiencing such things.
Process. If there is no such process in a person's life, then he is truly lonely."
At this time, I suddenly noticed that Lin Yi's face was not very good-looking, and I immediately regretted that the topic we just talked about offended him, so I hurriedly stopped talking.
But at this time Yang Shuguang took up the topic and said: "Dean Feng, what I mean is that apart from one's parents, there is nothing more important in a person's life than the relationship between friends. Because we are all lonely.
Only friends can accompany travelers for a long time."
Lin Yi's face suddenly became better-looking, and he immediately put his hands together and smiled, "That makes sense. That's a good thing to say. Come, let's have a drink together."
Only then did I realize that this Yang Shuguang is really a talent. He suddenly changed the subject to this. Either he had prepared it a long time ago, or he secretly noticed that Lin Yi's expression was wrong. I felt in my heart
I thought: If it’s because of the latter, this person really shouldn’t be underestimated.
Our time was shorter at noon, and we finished lunch in less than two hours. As I expected, it was Yang Shuguang who settled the bill.
Finally, after Yang Shuguang left, Lin Yi said to me: "In the future, you have more contact with this Yang Shuguang. I know that you have a good relationship with a female boss named Ning Xiangru. She has helped you many times. As a person, you must know how to be grateful.
You can help her."
I wouldn't be surprised if Lin Yi knew about the cemetery, but I didn't expect that he even knew about things about Ning Xiangru and me. I suddenly felt embarrassed, "Uncle Lin, she and I are just friends."
He was still smiling, "I know. It's not easy for a woman to have a career. Do you think so?"
I suddenly understood his intention, "Uncle Lin, you want me to help Yang Shuguang, right? You mean you don't want me to help him in vain, right?"
He immediately laughed and said, "You are so smart."
I immediately said: "Uncle Lin, if you asked me to help him, I wouldn't ask for any conditions. There's no need to do that."
He looked at me and smiled, "That's right. It seems that I made a mistake. Feng Xiao, don't blame me. Now that Chen Yuan and Shangguan Qin are gone, I always feel that we are not as casual as before. Look, you are so
You haven’t contacted me for a long time, so I feel unfamiliar with you. Feng Xiao, actually, I really don’t want us to be like this, after all, we were once a family. What do you think?”
I hurriedly said: "We are also a family now. Don't worry too much. Just tell me if you have anything to do. It's still the same as before."
He smiled and patted me on the shoulder, "Okay. I'm relieved now. Feng Xiao, this Yang Shuguang is a good person, very capable, and he has helped me a lot. Let's get to know him first."
If you think you can help this person, just try to help him. Okay?"
I nodded. He then said goodbye to me and left.
Now, I completely understand the purpose of his meal today. He really wanted me to help Yang Shuguang, but he wanted me to say it first, and I was willing to do so. But at this time, I could only smile bitterly.
Because I don’t think he is taking advantage of me. As he said to me, we seem to have become unfamiliar now. And it is precisely because of this unfamiliarity that I feel guilty towards him.
.Actually, I know in my heart that my unfamiliarity with him still comes from Shangguan Qin. In addition, there are also things that nursery rhymes once told me that made me have doubts about Lin Yi: He really
Doesn’t it have anything to do with Shangguanqin’s incident?
There is another question, which makes me confused and suspicious until now: Why didn't Shangguan Qin leave Jiangnan immediately? You know, Lin Yi told me at that time that she had already left?
I have never dared to ask Lin Yi this question. In fact, only my heart knows why: deep down in my heart, I feel afraid of him.
However, I don't want to doubt him, because such suspicion is too scary and makes me feel very guilty.
I didn't go to the hospital in the afternoon. Drinking alcohol at noon would make people very tired. So I went home directly and went to bed.
Later, it was the ringtone of my cell phone that woke me up. I looked at the caller ID and ignored it because the call was from Jian Yi.
We had a good talk before Jian Yi left our hospital. At that time, she said to me: "This is the best arrangement for me. Director Feng, although I am a bit rough in my working methods, I have a good heart."
And I am a woman, so I am very worried about being looked down upon by others. When I was in the previous hospital, I was like an idler, and then I was suddenly promoted to a full-time job, so I felt a little swollen."
At that time, I thought to myself that as a woman, it was not easy for her to be able to speak to such an extent. This already showed her sincerity, and such sincerity was not easy for a woman. I said: "
Secretary Jian, I don’t blame you for anything, I just think you shouldn’t interfere too much in administrative matters. As you know, I have put great expectations and a lot of energy into the renovation and reform of the hospital, so I don’t want
If any problems arise during this process, especially internal friction..."
She nodded, "I understand now. Dean Feng, you are actually a very good person. Now I regret it very much. I regret not cooperating well with you. Alas..."
She actually cried at that time, which made me a little confused. I comforted her for a long time before she calmed down. (To be continued)
