Kiss Addiction

Lin's father was still unconscious, and when Lin Meili returned home exhausted physically and mentally, the already deserted home became even more desolate without her father.

At the dining table alone, Lin Meili couldn't eat anymore. She lowered her head and pressed her forehead against the edge of the table. "Chengyi, give me a little strength. Tell me... Lin Meili, you are great."

On the first day she entered the company, she was faced with a mountain of documents to review and numerous projects waiting for her to make decisions. A heavy burden fell on her, making her completely suffocated.

"Lin Meili, you are great."

A familiar voice came to Lin Meili's ears. This voice... Lin Meili suddenly raised her head and looked at the still gentle and elegant Qiao Ran opposite her, her eyes dazzling.

However, when she took a closer look, the familiar figure was gone. She looked around in panic and saw no one. It turned out to be just her imagination. She imagined Qiao Ran's appearance and seemed to be subconsciously expecting him. Show up.

Yes, now is the most difficult time for her and when she needs him the most...

However, no matter how difficult it was, Lin Meili would not ask Qiao Ran for help.

Lin Meili patted her cheeks with both hands, "Lin Meili, wake up, it's more practical to do something serious."

Returning to the bedroom, she studied the company's statements again. The statements full of numbers made Lin Meili endlessly irritated, but she had to patiently read them one by one...

Until late at night, the light in her bedroom was still on. When Qiao Ran went to her downstairs, he stared at her lighted room. Even though he knew that she was not asleep, he never thought of disturbing her.

Qiao Ran watched the video Dick gave him. He was a little surprised by Lin Meili's performance. However, despite the surprise, he could also see how nervous she was.

But one thing worth affirming is that she can handle and cope with everything without him. Hasn't he always been dispensable to Lin Meili?

Therefore, even now, Qiao Ran can't help but miss her, but he has never gone in to look for her...

"Damn it." Even though Lin Meili has studied MBA, she still has no practical experience. She cannot analyze the pros and cons of the project in hand and judge whether there will be a return on investment.

Lin Meili couldn't help but pick up her phone and pulled it nervously. Should she call and ask Qiao Ran about this project?

She believed that Qiao Ran would be able to make accurate judgments. However, if she approached him about work matters, would it appear that she was too deliberately looking for an opportunity to get closer?

"Ask, just treat it as a normal friend, a very friendly question." Lin Meili encouraged herself, but their current embarrassing situation, let alone friends, may be worse than strangers.

She closed the phone again, unable to lose face.

As for He Mingxiu, she had to say that she couldn't trust him!

Lin Meili's thoughts about whether to ask Qiao Ran for help lasted from last night to the next day. On the way to work at the company, she was still looking through the project documents in her hand, and she couldn't figure out a reason after looking at them over and over again.

But the car stopped in an instant, and Lin Meili naturally leaned forward. Because of this behavior, she suddenly thought of Qiao Ran. The three of them were sitting behind the car that day...

"What happened?"

"Miss, the car may have broken down. I'll go down and have a look." The driver got out of the car to check.

Lin Meili looked at the time. She blamed herself for sleeping late last night and couldn't get up early in the morning. Lin Meili got out of the car and said, "It won't be repaired in a while, right?"

Otherwise, the driver would not have gotten out of the car for so long.

"Yes, Miss, I'm sorry, let me hail a taxi for you." The driver said apologetically.

"No need, I can stop it myself."

However, early morning is the rush hour for work, and all the taxis passing in front of her have "passenger" signs.

Seeing that the time to go to work was getting closer, Lin Meili didn't want to leave a bad impression on the company's employees when she went to work the next day. This would make it more difficult for her to work in the company.

"Shit, if I had known, I should have gotten up earlier." Lin Meili was holding a pile of documents in her hands, wearing a formal shirt and skirt, and was anxiously waiting for the bus, looking very embarrassed.

Qiao Ran stared at Lin Meili from a short distance away. She had taken off her stewardess uniform and put on a traditional shirt and skirt, looking like an office girl. She was also shining with beauty.

Finally, I watched Lin Meili get on the bus and leave...

On the one hand, Qiao Ran was holding back and not provoking her again, lest the emotions that he had finally convinced himself to control would erupt again like a flash flood; on the other hand, he was still hoping that Lin Meili would take the initiative to ask him for help. Only in this way could Lin Meili be proven He is needed, otherwise, he will always be in a dispensable position.

The bus Lin Meili was riding stopped and went. After driving for nearly an hour and a half, it finally arrived at the company, one hour more than the scheduled work time...

When getting off the bus, Lin Meili didn't pay attention to the vehicles on both sides because she was in a hurry, and crossed the road in a hurry. When the car approached her, she actually stood there blankly. She didn't expect severe pain, but felt heavy on her body. She was being pressed down. When she raised her eyes to see clearly who was coming, Lin Meili's eyes were blank.

She thought it was another hallucination like last night at the dinner table. She blinked her eyes and dilated her pupils. The cold and serious face of Qiao Ran in front of her was so real in front of her, especially when his angry voice came. Lin Meili was more and more certain that this was not imagination.

"Keep your eyes open when you walk!" This damn woman would have caused trouble again if he hadn't been following her today.

Hearing the words, Lin Meili swallowed hard. Although his words were so unpleasant, at this moment, she felt that they had another charm, which was indescribably sweet.

She didn't know why Qiao Ran appeared here. Was it a coincidence?

But, is this too much of a coincidence? Moreover, there was clearly no look of surprise in his eyes that she was still in Las Vegas.

Could it be that he knew what happened to Cham?

Qiao Ran stood up from her, his eyes still deep and solemn. He had just seen the haggard look on Lin Meili's face at close range. He had not seen her for just two or three days. Compared with the last time he was a guest at Qiao's house, his face seemed to be haggard. Dented.

"You...why are you here?" Lin Meili finally asked.

"Working nearby." Qiao Ran answered smoothly, as if he had already buried the answer in his heart.

"Oh." Apparently she was overthinking it. Lin Meili lowered her head. When her eyes dropped, she noticed that his hand had scratched the skin and there was blood seeping out. He must have been injured when he pulled her just now. , "Your hand is bleeding, do you want to go to the hospital for treatment?"

Qiao Ran glanced at the injury on the palm of his hand indifferently, and asked instead, "If you don't want to be a flight attendant, should you become an office worker?"

In fact, he tried to steer the conversation to Cham, hoping to see if Lin Meili would tell him the truth.

When she didn't meet Qiao Ran face to face, she did think about asking him for help countless times. However, when they met, she couldn't say anything. She turned around to pick up the documents scattered on the ground, "Well... recently cham's There are a lot of things, so Dad asked me to come over and help.”

She said nothing about the cham crisis.

Qiao Ran's face turned even more ugly. Since Lin Meili didn't say anything, he didn't ask.

After Lin Meili picked up the documents on the ground, she politely thanked her. The more polite she was, the more unfamiliar and alienated they became.

"Thanks."

Qiao Ran didn't reply, but after looking at her for several seconds, he ignored her and left.

Staring at Qiao Ran's car as it went away, Lin Meili felt disappointed. Her original enthusiasm for coming to work was shattered.

When dealing with things in the company, she couldn't keep her spirits up, and her mind was always recalling the scenes she met during the day. Although Qiao Ran kept saying that he was working nearby, Lin Meili felt that he didn't seem to be working nearby. It was more like following her specially.

There was a loud knock on the door of the office, and the secretary came in, "Miss, it's not good, the fire project's fundraising stocks are falling crazily. If corresponding measures are not taken, I'm afraid it will collapse..."

After hearing the secretary's eager report, Lin Meili's heart suddenly shook.

Even though He Zhenquan did not expose the news of his father's hospitalization for heart disease to the media, he had enough means to prevent the company's large projects from proceeding...

Lin Meili's face turned pale. She had never dealt with similar matters at all and had no way of starting. "Quickly, notify us quickly and convene a high-level meeting immediately."

She had no choice but to adopt the opinions of senior managers. However, it was only at the high-level meeting that she learned that this project was handled by He Zhenquan alone, and other managers had no idea how to handle it.

"Manager He, Fire's project financing stocks can obviously get hundreds of millions of yuan in funds. Why are they in danger of collapse now? You have always been in charge of this case. I don't care what method you use, find a way to make Fire The stock gradually rose and got back on track." Lin Meili and He Zhenquan glared at each other, her tough voice trying to convey her toughness and fierceness.

But for He Zhenquan, these things didn't take her seriously at all. "No matter how good the project stock is, it is normal for the stock to crash. What's more, when Chairman Lin invested in Fire, he also knew that there were certain risks in this project. Loopholes will lead to polarization. Either the project can proceed prosperously, or it will collapse. Unfortunately, it has become the latter now."

He spread his hands and acted very casually, making it clear that he was going against Lin Meili.

"I'm not asking you to analyze some damn loopholes now, but I'm asking you to stabilize the stock! This is your responsibility. I hope you can be position-conscious. If Manager He feels that you can no longer hold this position, please submit your resignation immediately. .”

Lin Meili has seen from his eyes that he will never take any rescue measures. If that is the case, then just fire him...

But I didn't expect He Zhenquan to answer readily, "Okay. It's okay to submit your resignation, but you have to calculate the compensation for these years carefully."
