chronic silence

Chen Yaoyu did not participate in the warm dinner with the three of Wei Nuo, but tasted the dinner that Liu Junyuan carefully prepared for him.Chen Yaoyu glanced at him. He was wearing light makeup, plain clothes, stained with oil, and his apron had just been taken off. It looked like he had just bought it.

"I'm back. It just so happened that I made a table dish. Have you eaten it?" Liu Junyuan looked forward to it, and after a brief silence, she put the dishes on the table.During the few days when Chen Yaoyu worked overtime at the company, Liu Junyuan thought about it for a long time at home, and felt more and more that she had overdone it, and her tone became much gentler.Perhaps only in this way can she slightly alleviate the sense of incompleteness in her heart.

"Too busy to eat, just right, it's good to try your handicraft." Because Chen Yaoyu was ruthlessly kicked out in the morning, he was listless all day long.How can a man be rejected in the morning, this feeling is really uncomfortable.Because that person was Wei Nuo, Chen Yaoyu could only swallow his anger forcefully.

"Really?" Liu Junyuan was overjoyed, and regretted the words as soon as she said them, expressing her emotions unabashedly, "Sit, sit, I'll get you a meal." She almost bumped into a stool when she got up.

"A little bit more."

Liu Junyuan said the word "good", but it was inaudible.

Liu Junyuan had a very happy meal, and her only worry was her poor cooking skills, so every time Chen Yaoyu tried a new dish, she would carefully ask, "Is it delicious?"

Even though Chen Yaoyu said "delicious" with a smile every time, Liu Junyuan tasted the chopsticks uneasy, and then asked next time, "How was it?"

"Are you used to eating?"

Chen Yaoyu smiled, and comforted in a gentle voice, "As long as it's made by you, I'm willing to eat it."

Then, without warning, with his greasy lips, he kissed Liu Junyuan's lips lightly.

Liu Junyuan felt relieved and completely relaxed.He quietly licked the place where he had just been kissed with the tip of his tongue, satisfied with the little woman, and shy when Chen Yaoyu discovered him, and hurriedly put away the dishes.

"I, I'm going to wash the dishes."

This is one of the reasons why she loves Chen Yaoyu. His gentleness does not need to be intentional. As long as he is willing, you will feel that you are being noticed all the time, your feelings are being cared about, and you are the one who is loved one.

It's the same now - Chen Yaoyu crawled on his body, enthusiastic and violent.Is Xiao Biesheng newlywed?Liu Junyuan didn't want to judge at the moment.Thinking about it now, I was indeed too impulsive at the time, it was just a few pajamas, there was no need to fall out with Yaoyu.He must have neglected himself because he was busy with work.After all, Dad was under a lot of pressure... This kind of self-comfort made Liu Junyuan completely forget the unhappiness of the previous few days, and devoted herself to the spring night exclusively for the two of them.

After finishing the work, Chen Yaoyu got out of bed and went to the window to smoke a cigarette, taking a deep breath to let the smell of smoke permeate completely.Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Chen Yaoyu felt the real tranquility.Since going to bed with Wei Nuo, to be honest, Chen Yaoyu also felt incredible, the feeling after having tasted the taste of a man... that feeling is irreplaceable.He had to admit that men and women were indeed different, and he obviously preferred the former.But the reality before him is that he can't give up on Junyuan right away, because for him, there is love on the one hand and bread on the other.Love may be the strongest love, but bread is the bread that can't be eaten in a lifetime.Would he be too greedy if he chose to have both?

One cigarette is enough time for Chen Yaoyu to think about the answer to the question—the important thing is balance.No matter what, what Chen Yaoyu was thinking about now was how to see Wei Nuo again.

It should be soon.

"Wei Nuo, do you have a plan for the big health project that you were asked to follow up last time?"

"Team Leader Shen, Xiao Li is already following up, and I have also drawn up a specific plan."

"Not bad, Wei Nuo. I knew I was right about you, you are very capable."

"This is the result of the joint efforts of the whole group."

"I don't know you yet? Just one thing, in the sales business, how can you not communicate with people? Your honesty can be seen through by the other party at a glance, and you haven't been pushed down to the lowest price."

"I..." It's not that Wei Nuo doesn't understand the truth of talking about business in business, it's just that he doesn't want to do anything with deceitful feelings. Although this sense of guilt at work has eased a little in recent years, it's still true for him. From a human point of view, Wei Nuo doesn't look like a salesman.

"I'm not asking you to deceive people, but you can't have the words 'Acceptable Lowest Price' written on your face, so that people can see through it, right?"

"Yes, yes. Team leader, I'll get to work first." Wei Nuo hurriedly fled the lecture scene.

"Xiao Li, what's the big health project like?"

"Team leader, it's successfully completed!"

"Have you contacted the intended company?"

"I have contacted, and a company has already responded. I will go to contact this afternoon."

"So soon... Which company, what time is it in the afternoon? I'll go and get in touch." Since the other party's intentions are strong, I can't neglect my side. If the time is in time, it's okay for Wei Nuo to go there in person.

"Three o'clock. The name of the company is..."

"Okay, let me go. You continue to pay attention to the movement of other interested companies."

"Okay, the contact information has been sent to your work email, including some information of the contact person."

Wei Nuo is easy to get into the working state, and it doesn't take long to devote himself to it.After confirming that the information was correct, he called the other party to confirm the time and place.

On the other side, Chen Yaoyu's office.After dealing with daily things, it was almost noon.If he remembered correctly, the letter of intent for the cooperation with Weinuo Company on massage equipment for general health has already been sent out. How come, the following application has not been submitted yet.Chen Yaoyu decided to go and see for himself.

"Did the other party respond to Weiyuan's letter of intent? Why can't I see the application for approval? Who is responsible!"

"Me!" I don't know what happened today, such a small project is not the main direction of the company, what happened to Manager Chen today, "Just, I just contacted Weiyuan Company, and we will meet at three o'clock in the afternoon."

"At three o'clock? Why do I have no impression at all, who did the other party send over?"

"The person in charge of their project called just now, and it seems that they attach great importance to us."

"Which phone?"

"Just, it's just the one I'm facing, what... what's wrong?" Did I do something wrong?This is obviously an insignificant small project, why is Manager Chen so nervous.

Chen Yaoyu leaned over to see, it was a landline number.He frowned impatiently, so that he couldn't be sure if it was Wei Nuo. "Forget it, I will talk about it myself this afternoon."

"Okay, okay." Could something be wrong?Chen Yaoyu's sudden attack made his staff fearful all day long.

I can only confirm it myself.

To show respect and sincerity, Wei Nuo arrived earlier.He knows that the company that sent the letter of intent has plans to expand its business scope recently. He doesn't know whether it is targeting the big health industry. Although he may be a small fish to them, but to this small fish In itself, this is a rare opportunity.The so-called sales, at least face-to-face communication.

Chen Yaoyu stepped on it, he saw We Nuo from outside through the glass door.The appearance at work is very different from usual: serious and focused, even a little meticulous.It's like following some kind of iron law - never work with personal feelings... or something.Is it necessary to distinguish so clearly?Chen Yaoyu felt that Wei Nuo's way of dividing himself was actually a lack of confidence in himself at work.

Full of Wei Nuo's thoughts, Chen Yaoyu walked in front of Wei Nuo unknowingly. "What a coincidence, wait for someone?"

Wei Nuo didn't expect Chen Yaoyu to appear here, "Yes, but I didn't expect to meet you."

"That person hasn't come yet, do you mind if I sit for a while?" Although he asked so, his buttocks were already glued to the chair, his legs crossed, and he still didn't feel comfortable enough.

"What are you doing? This is work, don't mess with me!"

"Work, work." Chen Yaoyu turned his body [-] degrees, his body was sunk between the armrests, his shoulders were on the left, and his legs were on the right—he finally found a comfortable position, "What project, how big is it?"

Wei Nuo looked nervously at the time, it was already three o'clock.He looked around, afraid that the person in charge would see this scene, "Chen Yaoyu, get lost at another table, I don't have time to fool around with you now."

"Go to another table?" Chen Yaoyu's voice was sullen, he got up from the chair and sat directly on the right armrest, obviously taller than Wei Nuo.There is always a momentum of falling down when occupying a high place. He stared at We Nuo, and the emotion that he thought would explode, was extremely soft when he opened his mouth, "Okay, then I will wait for you at the next table."

Seeing that Chen Yaoyu obediently went to another table, Wei Nuo readjusted his state and concentrated.But within a few minutes, Wei Nuo noticed a pair of eyes staring at his right side all the time, as if examining it.Even if Chen Yaoyu sat at another table, it was still not worry-free.What's worse is that Wei Nuo has no other choice at this time. If he is only stared at by a pair of eyes, he will not be able to work, and it will make people laugh if he tells it. After all, the current discomfort is completely caused by personal emotions.

Ignore it, ignore him.

With an inexplicable sense of disobedience, Wei Nuo waited for another 10 minutes.Very wrong, he began to feel a little anxious.Let’s be honest, being late for no reason is usually a sign of a failed collaboration, especially if it’s happening to yourself.Wei Nuo admitted that he was a little anxious, so he had to call the other party, "Hello, I am the representative of Weiyuan Company's big health project. Has the person in charge of your company left yet?"

"Weiyuan Company? Manager Chen went there in person. They've already left. I'll call to confirm."

Got the wrong address?This kind of oolong should not happen.Wei Nuo was still thinking about the reason, when Chen Yaoyu's phone rang, and he couldn't continue acting, he laughed and said, "I just arrived, um."

Wei Nuo naturally noticed it.The timing of the phone call and the content of the answer were too coincidental, not to mention that Chen Yaoyu couldn't stop laughing at him.

Sure enough, under Wei Nuo's watchful eyes, Chen Yaoyu walked towards him unhurriedly, "No, I really can't continue acting." He originally expected that We Nuo would get angry, and even say or do something angrily, No matter what it was, Chen Yaoyu readily accepted it. Although it was work, he had been watching Wei Nuo's meticulous look for almost half an hour, and he was already tired of it.

It's not that Wei Nuo didn't want to get angry, in the past few 10 minutes, there were too many things that could make him angry.Met Chen Yaoyu during an important work time, the interested party didn't show up at the appointed time, and he pretended to have nothing to do with him when he arrived early in the morning... All these things are worthy of Wei Nuo's anger.But this series of reasons, in the final analysis, is just a prank by Chen Yaoyu.What does he want to see?He is not the only one who understands himself, but he also understands him very well.

The more you want to see him get angry and out of control, the more you have to keep calm in front of Chen Yaoyu.Thinking of this, Wei Nuo put on a reluctant polite smile, "Manager Chen, I was blind just now, so I didn't know you were here."

Chen Yaoyu looked disappointed, although it was only for a short moment, it was still accurately captured by Weinuo.He pretended to smooth things over, "It's not too late to apologize now."

Wei Nuo didn't take it seriously, "Manager Chen, I would like to talk about your company's willingness to develop the big health market and the advantages of using the mechanical materials provided by us."

"Going to work so soon?" Wei Nuo frowned unhappily just after Chen Yaoyu finished speaking.Isn't this still angry? "Okay, let's talk about the advantages." Chen Yaoyu actually didn't know much about this small project, he just made superficial efforts to confirm that Wei Nuo was in charge, and usually he didn't bother to take care of this kind of project.

"Your company wants to explore the big health market starting from high-end massage appliances and some portable measuring equipment. I don't want to comment on the method. The quality of the parts provided by Weiyuan absolutely meets the requirements, especially the service life of precision parts, which is 20.00% higher than that of the peers. , I believe that even you, Manager Chen, should have heard of it."

The statement "even if it's you" made Chen Yaoyu a little upset, so he simply pretended to be deaf and dumb. "Excuse me, what company?"

"Are you finding fault on purpose?"

"Hey, Mr. Wei, you can't bring personal feelings into your work, so I'll take drugs and doubt your professional ability."

"Okay." Wei Nuo couldn't get angry, and Chen Yaoyu made it clear that he was trying to amuse him, "Here is the quotation list for all possible parts, please have a look."

Chen Yaoyu picked up the price list and looked at it thoughtfully, "This price is a bit high."

Wei Nuo sneered nonchalantly, "All of them are too high? For the same quality in the market, Weiyuan's offer is the lowest."

"Same quality? I remember you said just now that Weiyuan's parts are of the highest quality, and it's so easy to find homogeneous products in the market?"

When Wei Nuo heard "homogenous", he instinctively shuddered.From just now until now, Chen Yaoyu did not say a word about the specific content of the project, and the conversation could not be advanced.Now play word games with him again.Chen Yaoyu probably didn't know how important this project was to the company and to him, otherwise it would have been impossible for Wei Nuo to maintain a "businesslike" attitude in front of Chen Yaoyu for so long. "Chen Yaoyu, are you interested in discussing cooperation?"

The late angry expression finally appeared, "Of course I'm interested, otherwise why would I waste my time sitting across from you?"

"I hope you will show your sincerity and talk about your company's requirements." Wei Nuo didn't want to play around anymore. If Chen Yaoyu was just trying to tease him, or if he couldn't make a decision on this project at all, Wei Nuo felt that it was really unnecessary Consume any more.While this is one of the most promising partners, the list is not without other options.

"I... Our company's request is that Mr. Wei should take full responsibility and not allow other managers to intervene. Mr. Wei also said just now that the company is starting to open up new markets, and he has little knowledge of many things, or even no clue. There will be more in the future. Mr. Wei is needed in many places—cooperate with your team.” Chen Yaoyu made up a set of rhetoric casually, “If Mr. Wei is okay, I can consider signing the contract.”

What a mess!Wei Nuo never thought that just one meeting would be enough to finalize the project. Naturally, he didn't prepare the final contract, but just memorized a few key details to facilitate answering the other party's questions.And even if he wins this project, Wei Nuo will not have the slightest sense of accomplishment.Chen Yaoyu obviously didn't care about this project at all. He was afraid that after the cooperation, he would make trouble for himself frequently under the guise of promoting the project. If the pressure from the higher-ups was put on him, he would have to meet with Chen Yaoyu.Thinking like this, Wei Nuo couldn't pass his own test even if the project was negotiated.

But that day you all already...

The voice from nowhere brought Wei Nuo back to that rainy night. "I didn't bring the final contract with me." No, even taking what happened that night as an example, work is work, with Chen Yaoyu's work attitude, it is inevitable that something will go wrong in the future, and I will never agree to it.

"Oh, I'm showing full sincerity. It's really difficult without a contract." Chen Yaoyu seemed really annoyed.

"In this case, it's because I was not prepared enough to waste your time." No, one reason after another for agreeing to Chen Yaoyu appeared in Wei Nuo's mind.He tried desperately to convince himself; the idea of ​​leaving was getting stronger and stronger.

"Leave now? Mr. Wei? Wei Nuo, Wei Nuo!" Chen Yaoyu thought that Wei Nuo was indulging in lust, seeing that he hadn't escaped from the role of "Manager Chen" the moment he stood up, It wasn't until Wei Nuo yelled three times in a row that there was no response, then he hurried to catch up.

"I'm sorry, sir, but you haven't paid the bill yet."

"I didn't order anything, what order to buy."

"Sorry. We have a minimum spend here."

Chen Yaoyu glanced back and stuffed a few casually. "Weinuo, wait..."

In the end, Wei Nuo decided to give up the company where Chen Yaoyu worked.

The news of the failure of the negotiation spread like wildfire. For Wei Nuo, Chen Yaoyu was a trouble that he couldn't get rid of even if he wanted to. magnet poles together.

"Xiao Li. How did the cooperation intention go?" Since that time, Wei Nuo simply handed over the negotiation task to Xiao Li, and took care of the other parts of the project, so as not to meet the next company and sit across from him. It was Chen Yaoyu again.Wei Nuo admitted that he was deliberately avoiding, to put it bluntly, he was using this incident to avoid completely and 360 degrees.

"Fengyu Company has specified that you go there in person, otherwise we won't talk about it. I'll take a look at the others...the talk is almost over."

"Why don't you tell me how many companies we talked about?"

"Group Leader Wei, Boss. Are you really going to stop trying Fengyu and work hard?"

Weinuo didn't stop the movement of his hands, and the keyboard was banging loudly, "The news of the failure has spread throughout the company, so how can we work harder—how many companies?"

"Two, but the prices are very low. Boss, what the company said is groundless. The other teams wish our team would get down sooner. Didn't you say that we almost signed the contract? Try again and maybe it will work." gone."

"How low?" Feng Yu Wei Nuo would not think about it any more.

"Only [-]% of the profit."

"It's okay, let's report it." The [-]% profit is indeed pitifully low, but even if Team Leader Shen scolded him, Wei Nuo would admit it.Besides, other teams are also working on this project, and I may not be selected. The situation should not be as serious as imagined.

"I really reported it?" Xiao Li made the last struggle.

"Report it."

Sure enough, Xiao Li was interviewed by team leader Shen within 10 minutes. Wei Nuo looked at the time, and she hadn't come out in the past 10 minutes.When Wei Nuo finished the work at hand and saw Xiao Li coming out of the office in disgrace, Wei Nuo said with a smile, "Okay, don't be so sad, I will treat you to dinner tonight. What is the most important thing in sales? Smiling faces , you want to be a flight attendant salesman anyway, Xiao Li."

"Forget it, Boss, Team Leader Shen will let you go."

Before entering the door, Wei Nuo was full of rhetoric, but after entering the door, Wei Nuo didn't have so many thoughts.At this moment, he is being severely reprimanded by the head of the sales department in his office.

"Wei Nuo, Team Leader Wei, have you been working in sales for a long time? Why, have you become proud and vain over the past few months? Can't even recognize numbers? Or do you want to go back to being a small business? The staff is in charge of 10,000+ orders, are you living a stable life?"

"Minister, I..." Even if he was scolded, Wei Nuo was still at a loss. The project has not been discussed yet. What kind of mistake could make the good-tempered minister yell at him?

"Still don't understand?" The minister threw a stack of documents on the table, "Look for yourself!"

Wei Nuo carefully picked up the contract document. It was a relatively large order signed with a certain company recently. He remembered that the minister personally ordered him to be responsible for the project. He was cautious and carefully checked every detail. How... ...With doubts, Wei Nuo saw the page circled by the minister.

I counted a decimal point wrong, and I actually counted a decimal point wrong!This is an accident that is absolutely not allowed to happen in normal times. Not only is the company unable to explain it, but Wei Nuo can't pass it by himself.

He began to recall the whole process of this project.

Not a member of your own team.

It's not that the other party is playing tricks.

Speaking of the person who signed the contract with him, Wei Nuo smiled wryly in his heart.The other party's surname is Zhong, and he mainly deals in precision instruments. This time he ordered a large number of small components from the company.This Manager Zhong looks to be in his 40s, but he maintains a good figure. He also dresses very carefully and wears a very light men's perfume.When I met him for the first time, I carefully prepared a set of outfits to show my grandeur, but as soon as I met him, I was tightly pinched by the other party when shaking hands.Wei Nuo's intuition told himself that he might have encountered the same kind.

Every time I think of this, the bold and straightforward image of Manager Zhong will appear in my mind, but he seems so serious.This kind of contrast really made Wei Nuo momentarily at a loss as to how to accept it.Sure enough, in the next few contacts, he showed his favor frequently...

What happened after that?By the way, in order to get this list later, Wei Nuo accompanied him to drink, which is the way adults communicate, and he can understand; to accompany him to shop, it was a sudden heavy rain, and the two of them were drenched through, so they went shopping. It is also understandable to put on clothes; accompany him to the movies, it is a super IP movie, he said it was a dream he had dreamed of since he was a child.But later, Wei Nuo couldn't bear to buy belts with him and visit jewelry stores.

"Manager Zhong, look at the contract, can you..."

"Wei Nuo, you don't have to be so extravagant, just call me Zhong Mi."

"Ah, good, good." Wei Nuo nodded repeatedly, but still felt that something was awkward.

"About the contract," Zhong Mi thought for a while, "If you bring it over tomorrow, I'll sign it."

"Really..." Wei Nuo felt relieved, "Yes, yes, I will definitely bring it here."

The two walked side by side, but deliberately kept a distance.

What happened afterwards?Wei Nuo couldn't remember clearly, but he only remembered that day when he held the contract and drank a lot of wine, Zhong Mi looked at the contract after confessing his love to no avail, and agreed smoothly, "When we meet again next time , Promise me, give me this chance."

"Well, definitely." Wei Nuo took the signed contract and immediately ran away without a trace.To be honest, Zhong Mi is not annoying.He is a mature person and knows how to measure in major matters. If it wasn't for being too diligent, Wei Nuo even thought that one day he would be able to live like him.

When we meet again next time, could it be that Zhong Mi knew that there was a problem with the contract, so he agreed so readily?

Before Wei Nuo could escape from his thoughts, the minister yelled loudly, "I understand now? I really don't know what you are thinking about when you are working!"

Wei Nuo suddenly came to his senses, the important thing now is not self-blame or guilt, but to find a way to remedy it, since the loss has already been caused, it is necessary to find a way to reduce the loss.He raised his head, his eyes were serious and expectant, "Minister, is there a reserve in the contract?"

The minister glared at Wei Nuo angrily, and his tone suddenly eased, "I've suppressed him, not yet."

"Then we still have a chance to ask the other party to change the contract."

That's why I asked you to come over. The minister never said this. When he received the call from the other party today, he didn't realize what happened. He didn't realize what happened until he checked the contract and heard that the other party asked Wei Nuo to go there in person. Only after he was willing to re-sign a new contract did he realize that Wei Nuo had probably been tricked by someone else.

"We don't have much time. You can tidy up and start right away. Wei Nuo, let me remind you that the team you lead has already failed in the big health project. If this matter is found out again, I will say that it will be impossible to keep it." you."

"Yes, I will definitely make up for my mistakes." Even if you don't want to see each other again, mistakes are mistakes, work is still work, and life must continue.

But what about the stone?

One problem was solved, another problem popped up immediately, this situation made Wei Nuo's mind in a mess.Of course Wei Nuo knew the circumstances under which the problematic contract was produced, rainy day, Chen Yaoyu, two bodies who were unwilling to be lonely and colliding violently—now is not the time to blame yourself, Wei Nuo Looking straight ahead, he buried the reason for that night deep in his heart. Just as he was trying to take a deep breath, imagining the secret sinking in his body, the phone rang.

"Hi, where are you now?"

"Chen Yaoyu?" Wei Nuo waited at the crosswalk for the red light.

"Are you surprised?"

At this moment, Chen Yaoyu's voice was like a sharp steel wire, piercing through the noise of cars and hitting Wei Nuo's body directly.This was the first time after that time that Wei Nuo heard his voice on the phone. The secret that had just sunk to the bottom happily surfaced like a fish seeing a fish, and then greedily took a bite. All the details and memories were vividly.

"Accident, it's a surprise. I've already said it. If you give up your cooperation with Fengyu Company, you don't need to call me again." It's because of you that I made mistakes at work.

"Of course we are not here to discuss cooperation." Chen Yaoyu said.His tone was still normal, and he was still pretending to be himself. To a certain extent, Chen Yaoyu liked Wei Nuo who was duplicity like this, because the moment he tore off his coat, he would have a different sense of accomplishment, which made him Inexplicably excited, "I just suddenly miss the rainy day... There are still many nights between us, whether it is rainy or sunny."

At such a time, he still has the mind to flirt, "I'm so busy that I don't have time to accompany you..." Wei Nuo walked forward naturally, emotionally agitated as if Chen Yaoyu was right in front of him, tilting his head with a cynical look .

A harsh horn sounded not far from him, and the sound gradually became louder.

!!!

Wei Nuo didn't have time to turn his head, so he could only retreat backwards instinctively, because the pace was too fast, the center of gravity deviated backward, and he fell heavily to the ground.And the car that was about to hit him also floated and hit the guardrail after a sudden brake.

Of course, the mobile phone was dropped heavily on the ground, and the communication was interrupted.

Wei Nuo was still in shock, sitting on the ground unable to say a word, gasping for breath, feeling the liquid slipping down his forehead.He touched it with his hand, and his head was covered with cold sweat.

Luckily it wasn't blood.

The author has something to say:

Sad, the contract was rejected for a few more words.
