Can't help feeling for you: can't live without you

Chapter 25 The Man's Disaster (3)
He shouldn't be influenced by her, he shouldn't even see her again, but while he repeatedly advised himself like this, he yearned for her figure to appear in his sight even more.

At the same time, he dreamed of Cheng Huimei frequently, dreaming of his only marriage that was short and ended abruptly.

In a sense, it was Cheng Huimei who made him, without this marriage, it would be impossible for him to become the legitimate owner of Cheng Fang so smoothly.

Cheng Huimei proposed marriage. She has her best reasons. When talking to him, her expression was serious. She said Jingrui, look at the current situation, should we use a better and safer way? To protect our equity.

He remembered that his reaction at the time was to laugh, and he discussed a few words with her, saying that there are many ways to protect the equity, and he didn't have to use this method.

He has always had feelings for Cheng Huimei. This feeling is based on the fact that he did his best to keep the factory for her back then. It has nothing to do with her vision or ability. This woman can withstand such great pressure for her husband's last wish, no matter what. From any point of view, it is worthy of respect.

And in the later years, she chose to trust him completely. Without her support, he would not be able to manage Cheng Fang so smoothly until today.

Now that the company has expanded to a certain extent, but it has not yet been listed, it is difficult to support continuous expansion with domestic financing alone. Overseas investors moved after hearing the news and began to extend olive branches to them. What he cares about is the inevitable redistribution of equity. As for Cheng Huimei, he felt that most of what she cared about was the dissatisfaction of the two brothers of the Zhang family, and sooner or later something would happen.Since Cheng Fang shifted her focus to Shanghai, she has not participated in the company's management for some years, and has ignored most of the things. He also knew that she had a young lover, who was introduced to him by other rich wives. her.

This matter is very hidden. Although Yuan Jingrui knew about it, he never commented on it. He felt that Cheng Huimei had been lonely for so long in terms of her age and experience. It was understandable to want to find someone to comfort her, as long as the two parties were in love with each other. Yes, it’s okay to spend a little money to buy happiness.

Cheng Huimei is a capable woman, and this kind of ability must be outstanding in a family. When Cheng Fang was still a small factory similar to a small handicraft workshop, her diligence and loyalty made contributions for all to see. When the category of a traditional small business gradually moved towards a size and complexity that she could never imagine in her entire life, she began to feel at a loss.Over the years, she has not participated in the actual management of the company, but relies on the shares in hand, pays dividends every year, and lives a semi-retired idle life. Later, she has a young and handsome male companion, and she lives in seclusion. She rarely participates in the board of directors .

He also talked to her about her having a boyfriend, as long as she can maintain a basic sobriety, it is fine not to take this kind of money relationship too seriously, but if she is really confused, he will take a look at it , to avoid accidents.

But his laughing and answering stopped abruptly when Cheng Huimei suddenly collapsed, and what Yuan Jingrui heard made him stand up in a huge shock that he was caught off guard.

The calm Cheng Huimei tried her best to maintain disappeared in the crying. When she spoke again, she covered her face with her hands. Tears continued to seep from between her fingers. A posture distorted by extreme pain and fear.

"No, Jingrui, that boy, he, he is sick, he is dead, it's too scary, I dare not tell you, but now I'm also infected, I checked three times, I was also infected by him What should I do if I get infected? I will die too!"

Yuan Jingrui stood silent in front of this suddenly aged teenage woman. Cheng Huimei has been 45 this year, but her affluent life has kept her relatively young, but now she is crying in front of him, her body twisted into a ball , there were deep wrinkles on the parts of her face that were not covered by her hands, and at first glance she looked like an old woman who was nearly seventy years old.

She was still crying, and stretched out a trembling hand like him, with tears still on that hand, a desolate gesture of supplication.

He took a deep breath, slowly reached out, pressed the back of her hand, and then put his hand on her shoulder.

"I know, don't be afraid, there is always a solution."

The man's powerful palm effectively alleviated Cheng Huimei's hysteria. Over the years, she has always relied on a female intuition, trusting and obeying every decision of Yuan Jingrui. This man, many years younger than her, is wise, strong, and capable. The means, Cheng Fang is what he is today because of him, and he never let her down, when fear strikes, she always thinks of him first.

But this time the fear is not something he can solve. Her lover, the boy she loves, is so young, cute, handsome, as docile as a little pigeon, and his smile is so sweet every time he looks at her , how could she have imagined that he would turn into such a terrible appearance, rotten all over, like a crushed orange, all the beauty and goodness became a terrible curse, she was scared, really scared, and even more so To her despair, she too had been infected.

She raised her face full of tears and looked up at the man standing in front of her.

Does she not like Yuan Jingrui?No, she once very longed that she could get him. Who doesn't love such a young and handsome man, not to mention that he is so powerful, but this kind of love made her feel ashamed. She found out very early that she couldn't use a woman Yuan Jingrui does not reject women, but he is not interested in her.

And she is so lonely, Chengfang's success brings wealth, and she doesn't even need to work hard, she just needs to sit back and enjoy the achievements. , brought her a catastrophe.

What is the source of the formula?It was the inheritance left by her deceased husband. Two-thirds of this inheritance was obtained by her from her two stepson. Her two stepsons are like two ticking time bombs, which will detonate at any time , she has no parents, no children, and is alone. If she dies, she hopes that everything will be handled in a safe way, but she doesn't know how to ensure that it will be safe, and she doesn't know who else can To take care of myself who is stepping into the abyss of despair—except Yuan Jingrui.

From this moment on, Yuan Jingrui seriously considered Cheng Huimei's proposal.

He began to realize that with Cheng Huimei's current state of mind, it was impossible to continue living without someone to take care of her. Of course, he didn't have time to take care of her basic necessities, but even if he hired professionals, he had to supervise her all the way. Next, because if this matter is leaked out, it will lead to huge changes in the company. Cheng Fang is already in the process of planning to go public, which is the last thing he wants to see.

What's more, judging from the current investment of foreign capital, the other party will definitely ask for a seat on the board of directors, and the proportion of shares held by him and Cheng Huimei will be diluted accordingly. There is no doubt that they will have an absolute advantage.

As for the future...

For the first time, Yuan Jingrui felt repulsed from thinking about the future. What happened to Cheng Huimei chilled him, and he didn't want to think so far.

On the eve of the wedding, he had a drink with some old friends, which was considered to be a notice to them. Lao Mu and Xiong San were stunned at that time. Xiong San had never been married, but Lao Mu already had a wife and children. The two of them stared at him together. After waiting for a long time, after making sure that he was not drunk and talking nonsense, he asked him again, "Are you sure you want to marry her?"

He was surprised, "Can't you?"

"Of course not, but..." Old Mu was used to speaking in a dull tone, and he didn't know how to continue when he opened his mouth.

Xiong San continued, "But what if you meet someone you want again? It's just that you have that feeling for other women, no, you have love!"

"How old are you, and you still fall in love with me? I have been in love before, and I know what it is. Besides, she and I know why this marriage happened. "

Of course he would not tell the truth of the matter, but Lao Mu and Xiong San were all thinking about the past, and they were filled with emotion immediately.

Lao Mu touched the cigarette as usual, and while handing it to him, he muttered, "That's nothing."

"That's right, brother, we were all young people who were not frivolous and reckless back then, but now you are the big boss of a big company, you have to be cautious about getting married." Xiong San also said.

Yuan Jingrui laughed, "What is prudence? Prudence means that I didn't marry a woman who made me dizzy. Remember, love is a disaster for a man. What can love do? Make you immortal or immortal? What love can do, It is to make you change from a normal person to a fool, to become blind and deaf, to be unable to see or hear anything except that one person, to lose one's mind and lose one's fortune, and it's still good. If you are unlucky, you can even pay for yourself. What? My decision is prudent."

What he said made Lao Mu and Xiong San speechless, especially Lao Mu, who didn't know what to think, suddenly became emotional, his eyes were red, and he poured down half a bottle of wine as soon as he raised his neck, Xiong San also drank too much, tossing and turning After talking for a while that no one could understand, he finally yelled, "No, you are all nonsense. You will regret it sooner or later. Sooner or later, a woman will come out and let you know what retribution is."

Yuan Jingrui was not angry either, and he and Cheng Huimei went to get the marriage certificate the next day. The Civil Affairs Bureau was full of young girls who stared at him and Cheng Huimei when the certificate was issued, and then looked at the age on the ID card after they were done. Looking up at them again and again, Cheng Huimei frowned, but he didn't mind at all, and smiled, bent down and asked them, "Is there a problem?" The little girl blushed collectively.

When he walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, he received a call from Xiong San, asking him if he had received the certificate?He said yes, and Xiong San apologized on the other end. He was drunk yesterday, and all he said was drunk, so don't take it to heart. He hung up the phone with a smile, and turned to see Cheng Huimei.

She was already sitting in the car waiting at the door, waiting for him, the door was open, she smiled at him, and said nothing, with a relieved expression, as if the countless terrible pressures on her body had been transferred to him body, and she could finally get a temporary respite.

This was the last impression she left on him. He flew to Hong Kong that afternoon to negotiate terms with several overseas investors. Then, three days later, he received news that she had accidentally fallen from a building on the construction site. Died instantly.

He put her photo in his office, and Cheng Huimei in the photo was always smiling and contented.This is a photo she took before she left Chengfang's old factory. She always thought she was old-fashioned and didn't like to take more photos. He remembered that she cared a lot about other people's eyes. Everything you own is completely overturned.

But this woman dedicated her whole life to Cheng Fang, and even died on the foundation of this building, laying the cornerstone with her own blood. Some people say that this is one of the reasons for Cheng Fang's smooth sailing. Blessed the company, with his own blood, and he respected her, and resisted the pressure at the last moment to refuse the autopsy, and soon cremated her, preserving her last little secret and privacy that no one wanted to know.

As for him, after three days of marriage, he became a widower, a widower surrounded by countless rumors and secretly suspected by countless people.

The continuous silence outside the door was finally broken, and there was a light knock on the door, accompanied by Dong Zhiwei's voice, "Excuse me, may I come in?"

Auntie came out of the kitchen again, answered and went to pull the door. He saw Dong Zhiwei enter the door and watched her talking to Auntie, but he didn't make any response, just lowered his head, and he didn't know how many times he took this page from his hand. The first line of the file began to read, and it was still the same as the previous few times. I didn't know what I was looking at.

Another possibility that suddenly appeared overwhelmed him. He never thought that in Dong Zhiwei's mind, he might be a suspect who murdered his wife for everything today, a guilty person.

Over the years, he has never been troubled by this matter. No matter how turbulent the unreasonable suspicion is, it is still unfounded. He never defends it because it is unnecessary.

But if even she thinks that way...

Xiong San's voice suddenly sounded: "You will regret it sooner or later, and sooner or later a woman will come out and let you know what retribution is."

There was a voice of conversation at the door, Dong Zhiwei had already entered, and was answering his aunt's greetings, but he frowned, in an unprecedented bad mood.

"Mr. Yuan." Dong Zhiwei approached him, stood in front of his boss, and called him as usual.Yuan Jingrui's physical recovery ability is amazing. Only two weeks after he came back, he has already refused to lie on the bed and turned to work in the study. She felt that he had returned to the company now and started working normally as if nothing had happened.

He responded in a low voice without even raising his head. Only he knew that there was some embarrassment behind his indifferent reaction.

Dong Zhiwei took out the documents in his bag and started his routine work for the past few days. Near the end of the year, the annual company annual meeting is the most important thing. The plan and procedures have been released. The administration department stared at her and asked Yuan Whether the general manager can attend, there are still many application forms that need to be signed by Yuan Jingrui, and the affairs are complicated. Yuan Jingrui has always been impatient with these procedures, so she has already made a detailed list before coming, and try to ensure that everything is finished at once. , with no omissions.

He listened to her voice quietly, Dong Zhiwei's voice was as soft as ever, but all the Chinese characters and numbers she reported became meaningless combinations at this moment, and she was standing opposite him, separated The distance between a table is like thousands of mountains and rivers.

The man sitting behind the table never looked up at her. Dong Zhiwei's voice gradually dropped due to the seriousness on his face. A premonition of what was about to happen made her panic, and then very suddenly, Yuan Jingrui stood up. , and said, "Put it down, I know all about it."

She silently put the paper in her hand on the table, the large desk was still separated between the two of them, they stared at each other for a few seconds, then she heard him speak, in a low voice, calling her name directly, First and last name.

He said, "Dong Zhiwei, I want you."

He didn't say that I want to pursue you, he didn't say that I like you, let alone that I love you, he just said "Dong Zhiwei, I want you."

The window was behind him, and she was dizzy for a moment, as if the whole world fell down with the shadow he cast, hitting her body, making her breathing difficult and numb all over.

"No!" she said before choking herself, preventing any further movement from him.

He became irritable, like a teenager who is angry because he can't get what he wants.

"You know that I like you, and you also know that I will treat you well. Why do you reject me? Do you hate me?"

He had never shown such an agitated look in front of her. This kind of Yuan Jingrui made Dong Zhiwei feel strange and soft-hearted. The trembling before was replaced by a deep sadness, and forced her to say, "No, it's not like that..."

"So what?" He interrupted her, and walked towards her, as if to grab her.

She took a step back, and stretched out her hand in a gesture to block his advance, although the difference in height and momentum between the two made this action look ridiculous.

"No, you can't." She said painfully, "We are different, my life is different from yours."

"What's the difference? Do you mean your family? I know your family situation. I can take care of your whole family. What's the problem?"

He doesn't understand!
Dong Zhiwei looked at him desperately, he didn't understand what she was talking about at all.

"I can take care of myself and my family, we are already doing well and don't need you to take care of us."

"Don't you want a better life?"

"I thought, but I don't need other people to make me better, there will be a lot of rumors, there will be a lot of people looking at me strangely, I didn't think about it, you know I never thought about it. "

"Are you afraid of other people's eyes? With me here, who will embarrass you?" He said, and took another step towards her.

And she backed away again, until there was no way to retreat, she raised her face, some kind of desperate struggle made her ordinary facial features suddenly become firm and powerful, she replied to him, "I, I will make myself feel embarrassed. "

"..." He stopped talking, her expression and answer made him angry, and the anger made him unable to say a word again.

But she was not intimidated by the haze on his face, and continued to speak vigorously, "I am your secretary. I am here for work. I am not beautiful or special. I am just a very ordinary woman." My child, I can't change my life because of your whim, if you must force me to change, I would rather give up this position."

She couldn't continue talking here, and she was slightly out of breath because of being too excited.

There was a sudden sound downstairs, it was the "sizzling" sound made when the water-soaked vegetables were put into the hot oil pan, this sound made the two people in the study stop at the same time.

Dong Zhiwei was still in a state of extreme tension, panting slightly, as if he couldn't believe that he would say such a fierce sentence, while Yuan Jingrui was standing just a few feet away from her, suddenly lost his mind and walked out even if he couldn't believe it. is the power of one step.
