resentment

In the morning, Jiang Jingshu woke up early, packed up her things and went to the coffee shop. The opening is coming soon, and she still has a lot of things to deal with.

In the coffee shop, there were a few waiters who had been recruited for a long time. They were cleaning and arranging the displayed items. When they saw Jiang Jingshu coming in, they all respectfully called Sister Jingshu.

Jiang Jingshu nodded and went straight into her office. Yesterday, several designers submitted their resumes online, but she hadn't had time to read them yet. There was another one who made an appointment for an interview today, and she didn't know much about the specific situation. .

After entering the office, Jiang Jingshu took off her coat, turned on the office computer, and began to read resumes one by one.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door outside. Jiang Jingshu lowered her head and was busy with her own affairs, and only answered, "Please come in."

The recruited waiter's familiar voice sounded: "Sister Jingshu, this is the designer who came for the interview today." Jiang Jingshu let out a sigh, looked at the things in her hand, and then raised her head.

When Jiang Jingshu's eyes touched the visitor, Jiang Jingshu's eyes widened suddenly, with a look of disbelief on her face, and a surprised tone followed: "Lin Lan? Why are you?"

Jiang Jingshu never thought that the jewelry designer who came to interview was actually Lin Lan. Because of Gu Kai's reason, they didn't get along very well.

Lin Lan looked at Jiang Jingshu with a smile, and responded, "It's me."

Only then did Jiang Jingshu put away her gaffe, turned her gaze slightly, and told the somewhat puzzled waiter, "Go and do your work, there's nothing else going on here."

The waiter nodded, turned and left, and closed the door behind him, leaving a private space for the two of them.

Jiang Jingshu stood up, pointed to the sofa opposite: "Sit down." Then she turned to the water dispenser, poured a cup of hot water, put it in front of Lin Lan, and sat down.

"Why did you come back to interview the designer?" Jiang Jingshu looked at Lin Lan and asked, in her perception, Lin Lan didn't need to condescend to do this kind of work in her small shop.

Lin Lan smiled wryly. Why doesn't she want to stay at home and live a glamorous life, but she no longer has the qualifications and strength. If she wants to survive, she has to come out to work.

"Now I have a family to raise and a family to take care of. It's not as good as before." Lin Lan said helplessly.Before coming to the interview this time, she also hesitated. After all, there was a deep grievance between Gu Jingchen and Gu Kai before, and Gu Kai did a lot of things to apologize to Jiang Jingshu, but she still came, just to live.

Jiang Jingshu sighed in her heart. She could understand Lin Lan's worries and conflicts in her heart, but she had no choice. Such deep conflicts could not be resolved for a while.

The office fell into silence, Jiang Jingshu frowned, thinking about how she should ease the current atmosphere.But Lin Lan, the bitterness on his face has been replaced by a calm and breezy look.

"How are you doing recently? I probably heard about the Gu Group a while ago." Lin Lan asked cautiously. She had heard a lot about Gu Jingchen and Luoxue's marriage from reports, but in her impression Well, Gu Jingchen is devoted to Jiang Jingshu.

"It's been pretty good recently. I've come out of the mud of the past and started a new life. There is no pain, only joy, and you can do what you want. This is called life." Jiang Jingshu said. During the recent busy days, Let her forget the gloomy life before, and now is Jiang Jingshu's favorite thing, what can be called life.

Lin Lan nodded, she just felt that something must have happened between Gu Jingchen and Jiang Jingshu, but seeing Jiang Jingshu's free and easy look, she didn't ask any more questions, after all, the most important thing is to have a good time.

"By the way, you said that you interviewed the designer to support your family, and you want to support... your parents?" Jiang Jingshu asked suspiciously, her eyes were full of incomprehension, she remembered that Lin Lan had no such burden.

For some reason, Lin Lan's cheeks turned red, and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She shook her head and said, "No, it's my child."

"Child? Is it the child from before?" Jiang Jingshu's tone was full of surprise. She remembered that Lin Lan almost had a miscarriage before, but she did not expect that she had given birth now.

Lin Lan reached out to pick up the water glass on the table, put it on her lips and sipped it lightly, then put the water glass back on the table, and nodded a little embarrassedly: "It's not long since I was born."

Jiang Jingshu looked at the weak woman in front of her, and it was really hard to imagine how she survived in this society with a young child. Lin Lan used to be a person who had never even been out of the house a few times. Mother Zegang's words are indeed correct.

"The child belongs to Gu Kai? If you come out to find a job, who will take care of the child?" Jiang Jingshu asked with concern.

A warm feeling surged in Lin Lan's heart. One day, the two parties who were once hostile could sit together and talk peacefully. Time is really a magical thing, which can erase all edges and corners.

"It's Gu Kai's. I found a nanny to take care of the child at home. I have to work, otherwise I can't even support him." Lin Lan's tone was full of vicissitudes, and life forced her to do nothing.

Jiang Jingshu looked at Lin Lan with some distress, and felt a little uncomfortable when she remembered that the child hadn't been accompanied by his parents since he was a child.The mother couldn't be with her all the time, and her father wasn't around since she was a child. This desolate situation made Jiang Jingshu feel pity.

Although she feels a little guilty towards Lin Lan, Jiang Jingshu has no way to go back and return Gu Kai to Lin Lan, so she can only help her in other ways.

"I have a rule for the selection of designers. It is necessary to test the designer's original level. In this way, I will give you a request. You submit a draft of the design." Jiang Jingshu knows that Lin Lan has learned this theory, and also agrees. I have personally practiced it, so it should not be a big problem, but there are still necessary tests.

Lin Lan is very grateful to Jiang Jingshu for giving her this opportunity, because she is not experienced enough, and many companies have refused to meet her because of this.

Lin Lan nodded, and then Jiang Jingshu walked to her desk and took out a document from the drawer, which contained the exam questions they wrote together.

She handed the document to Lin Lan and said, "This is an exam question, take a look, and you can submit the manuscript in three days."

Lin Lan nodded, roughly flipped through the documents in his hand, and had a little idea about the topic in his mind, then closed it, stood up and said, "I see, go back and prepare carefully, thank you Jingshu."

Jiang Jingshu shook her head with a smile, took out her business card from the table, and gave it to Lin Lan, telling her to come to her directly for any work-related matters, and call her wherever she needed for life-related matters.

Lin Lan held Jiang Jingshu's business card tightly, her eyes were moist.Ever since Gu Kai was not around and she lived alone, she has suffered from other people's eyes and felt the ruthlessness and indifference of this world. Now Jiang Jingshu can give herself a job opportunity, which makes Lin Lan feel the long-lost warmth in her heart.

Jiang Jingshu originally wanted to stay with Lin Lan for lunch, but Lin Lan declined and said that she would go home to take care of the children at noon, and she would make an appointment next time.Jiang Jingshu didn't say anything else, she put on her clothes and prepared to send Lin Lan downstairs.

The two were walking down the first floor slowly, chatting casually about trivial matters in life. Suddenly, Lin Lan's cell phone rang. She looked down and saw that it was a call from the nanny at home.

Lin Lan picked up the phone, gestured to Jiang Jingshu, pressed the answer button, and the nanny's eager voice came out of the microphone.

"Miss Lin, where are you? When are you coming back?" The nanny's voice was a little sharp, and even Jiang Jingshu, who was standing beside her, could hear it very clearly.

Lin Lan was a little embarrassed, turned her body to cover the microphone, and replied: "I have a friend's unit, what's the matter? Is there something wrong with the baby?"

Upon hearing this question, the nanny let out an ouch, her voice was full of complaints, and she didn't know what she was complaining about: "The child is sick, and I don't know what happened, so I sent the child to the hospital first."

When Lin Lan heard this, she became anxious, so she didn't have any thoughts of guarding against Jiang Jingshu, and asked anxiously: "Why is the baby sick? Which hospital are you in?"

The nanny reported the name of the hospital, Lin Lan hung up the phone and turned around to say goodbye to Jiang Jingshu.Before she could speak, she heard Jiang Jingshu say, "Is the child seriously ill?"

Lin Lan's eyes were a little wet, and her voice was trembling a little. If such a small child had a high fever and she was not around, anyone would be flustered.

"I don't know what's going on. I'm in the first hospital of the city. Jing Shu thanked you today, but I have to go first. I..." Lin Lan was a little incoherent at the end.

Jiang Jingshu understands her feelings, but considering Lin Lan's current living conditions, she probably doesn't even have her own car, so this interview probably came by bus.

"I'll take you there by car, it's faster, you wait for me." With that said, Jiang Jingshu turned back to the second floor to get the car keys.Lin Lan wanted to decline, but before she could speak, Jiang Jingshu walked away.

"Jingshu, I can just take a taxi by myself. You are so busy, so you don't need to see me off." Lin Lan was really embarrassed to bother Jiang Jingshu, and she had to drag others to worry about her own affairs.

Jiang Jingshu put on the coat in her hand, and shook the keys she took down: "The keys are all taken off, it's faster and more convenient to drive, let's go."

Lin Lan was really worried about the child's situation, seeing Jiang Jingshu's resolute look, she didn't say anything, the two walked to the parking lot quickly and opened the door to get in the car.

Lin Lan quickly reported the address of the hospital, and a pure white car slowly drove out of the garage and sped towards the hospital.
