wood, bring me here

"I……"

Just as Li Jie was about to speak, the phone rang again.

The melodious bell echoed in the ward, but it sounded extremely harsh at this moment.

Li Jie took out his mobile phone, glanced at it and was about to hang up.

Li's mother noticed something strange and immediately asked, "Qin Shaoyang's?"

Li Jie pursed his lips and didn't speak, because he didn't know how to answer.

"Go ahead and tell him your choice by the way."

The cell phone was still ringing continuously, but Li Jie's heart became more and more heavy.

Now that I have made a choice, I should tell him.

Frowning severely, Li Jie answered the phone.

Before he could speak, Qin Shaoyang's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Brother, you finally answered the phone. Today's meeting went well, right?"

"It went well."

The man's voice was as deep and magnetic as ever. Normally, Li Jie didn't feel anything at all, but today, he felt very warm.

Maybe, after today, I will never hear this man speak to me in this voice and tone again.

Thinking of this, Li Jie's eye sockets became hot.

"That's good, by the way, brother, what can you do with me?"

Li Jie panicked, not knowing how to answer.

He opened his mouth, and finally changed his words: "I didn't look for you, maybe I accidentally pressed the wrong button."

"Oh," the man didn't notice Li Jie's emotional abnormality: "Brother, I got the thermos bucket, and I will cook soup for Dad next time when I have time."

"Ah."

Li Jie responded softly, raised his eyes to look at his mother, and felt like a knife twisting in his heart: "Qin Shaoyang, actually, I have something to tell you..."

The man's voice rose slightly: "Huh? What's wrong, brother?"

The corner of Li Jie's mouth bent down quietly, and he said bitterly: "Qin Shaoyang, we..."

"Brother, I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry here, or I'll call you later."

"Ah."

I had already thought about doing that, but when I heard the man's voice, I couldn't make up my mind.

Forget it, let's talk to him later.

Li Jie hung up the phone, looked at Li's mother, expressed a trace of sour pain on his thin lips: "Mom, I'm sorry, I can't say that to him now."

Li's mother sighed, closed her eyes and said, "It seems that you still chose him."

"Mom, no, I have already made up my mind, but I..." Li Jie moved his lips slowly: "But I will definitely break up with him, I assure you, after I break up with him, I will not break up with him." Get in touch again."

Although Li's mother still couldn't accept that Li Jie would fall in love with a man, and couldn't accept the fact that An An and Qin Shaoyang divorced because of his intervention, but seeing her son like this, Li's mother's heart ached.

After all, this handsome man in front of me is my son, how can a mother watch her child suffer like this.

I can't be as tolerant and open-minded as Xie Chenxi's mother, so I can only use this method to force him.Although it was a bit cruel to do so, I really didn't want to see my child go astray.

Mother Li shuddered at the thought that if her son was with that man, others would look at him like a monster, and he would die alone.

"Xiaojie, it's not that mom really wants to force you. Love is sweet, but you also have to bear corresponding responsibilities. Maybe you think it's good for two men to be together at first, but can you live like this for the rest of your life? Can you bear other people's eyes? Besides, Qin Shaoyang can abandon An An, can you guarantee that he will not abandon you? You..."

"Mom, don't talk, you have a good rest, I want to go back and be quiet."

"Little Jie..."

Li Jie stumbled out of the hospital, got into the car, and stared blankly at the passers-by on the street, with an indescribable sadness floating quietly in his long and narrow eyes.

Originally, I planned to face it with him, but when it came to the critical moment, I finally backed down.

It is true that I love him, but I have no choice but to choose between my mother's life and him.

If I talk to him nicely, he might forgive me.

City D in March is still quite cold, the air seems to be condensed, and even the hot air exhaled can form a faint white mist.

Li Jie sat quietly in the car like this, from dusk to nightfall.

Silently staring at the night sky outside the car window, as if to be silent forever, until the phone rings.

Seeing the name of the incoming call, Li Jie pulled the corners of his lips bitterly, and finally made up his mind to press the screen.

"Brother, I'm off work."

"Ah."

"I just bought an old hen, and I'm going to make chicken soup for Dad. I just use that thermos, so Dad won't..."

The man was still talking excitedly over there, but Li Jie's thoughts were long gone.

"Qin Shaoyang."

"What's wrong brother?"

"let's break up."

Li Jie seemed to use all his energy in his life to say these words, and at that moment, he seemed to hear the sound of his heart breaking.

The person on the opposite side had no sound, and even the sound of breathing was completely frozen.

Silence, like a cold gap between the two.

After a long time, a man's low voice finally came from the other end of the phone: "Why? Didn't you agree to face it together? Why did you give up?"

Facing the man's questioning, Li Jie, who has always been strong in front of him, felt that he was so useless for the first time.

"My mother...knows..."

"how come……"

The man was very surprised. Obviously, he never expected Li's mother to know so soon.However, if it wasn't for being known by her, maybe he and Li Jie could still continue their underground relationship.

"My mother saw it when she was shopping for vegetables in the morning, and she was almost hit by a car..."

The man interrupted: "I'll go and talk to her."

"No, don't go, my mother, she wants me to choose between you and her, if I choose you, she will die... I can't watch her do this, so I... Qin Shaoyang, sorry."

Li Jie closed his eyes in pain. He held the phone tightly and tried his best to keep his body calm.

The person on the other end of the phone fell silent again.

"I see, then take care of yourself and remember to eat on time."

The man's tone was terribly low, each word hit the most vulnerable part of Li Jie's heart, the pain was unbearable.

Fortunately, I am only talking to the man now, so I can't see his face.However, I knew that the expression on the man's face at this moment must be full of despair and sadness.

"You too."

"it is good."

Li Jie hung up the phone and leaned heavily on the seat, his hands hanging down weakly.

I finally told him that we are always together, we must overcome any difficulties together, and at this moment, it all became a lie.

I was like a liar, I gave him a promise but couldn't keep it, he would hate myself for the rest of my life.

Gently raising his left hand, the dark silver ring on his ring finger shone with a gray color under the dim street lamp, and before his eyes, it seemed that he had returned to that snowy night again.

The exchange of rings and the vows under the moonlight were all in vain in the end.

Li Jie chuckled, but a transparent liquid flowed out from the corner of his eyes.

Qin Shaoyang, goodbye.

Two weeks later, Li's mother was discharged from the hospital, and Li's father's leg injury has almost recovered. Now he can walk slowly with a cane without anyone's support, and he will be discharged from the hospital in a few days.

Li An called from Europe and excitedly talked about his recent work situation.

It has entered the middle of April, the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, and the falling flowers are colorful, and everything is so full of vitality.

But at this time, the Regent Hotel was filled with an unusually serious and tense atmosphere.

The bidding that the hotel participated in failed, and a lot of money was lost. More importantly, all the plans for this year were disrupted, and these cannot be measured in money at all.

The operation department is responsible for participating in the bidding. As the person in charge, Manager Zhang will naturally be held accountable. As for Li Jie and others, they will also be implicated.

And the winner of this bidding was their old rival, Huamei Group.

In fact, Lijing is also very aware of the capabilities of the Huamei Group. However, Lijing definitely spent a lot of money this time, but unexpectedly, it was still taken by someone else.

The bidding failed this time, and the headquarters also suffered a loss. The higher-ups said harsh words, asking Lijing to rectify and reflect on it in the recent days.

With the order suppressed from above, coupled with the elation of Huamei Group, the boss's mood will naturally not be good.

He once had a conversation with the tenderer in private, and the other party affirmed the reasonableness and operability of Lijing's plan, and said that Lijing's and Huamei Group's plans were almost the same in every respect, but Huami's The price is also a little bit lower than Regent.As an enterprise, it is natural to consider cost and investment, so they chose Huamei Group's plan.

Although the other party couldn't say it clearly on the phone, how could a shrewd person like the boss fail to understand the implied meaning in the other party's words?

So, the boss made a bold decision. He obtained a bidding plan for Huamei Group through his relationship.

When he read this thing, he understood everything in an instant.

If it is said that the failure of the bidding caused a lot of losses to Regent, then it is undoubtedly a blockbuster that they have commercial espionage inside them.

In fact, the boss has long suspected that there are people from the Huamei Group in the hotel.Otherwise, Mao Yun would not have had the courage to steal the formula and sell it to Huamei Group.If you want to find the person lurking inside the hotel, you must start with Mao Yun, but unfortunately Mao Yun has not been found yet.And, the longer the time dragged on, the harder it was to find him.

The matter of Mao Yun hadn't been resolved, and the spy started to attack again, his appetite was getting bigger and bigger, and he directly extended his hand to such an important bidding project, causing the hotel to suffer heavy losses.

The existence of that person is like a ticking time bomb, something may go wrong at any time. If this person is not found, maybe Lijing will suffer a bigger blow after that.

Although no one knows who that person is, there are not many people who can easily get the bidding plan.

When everyone was at a loss, the boss suddenly received a call from the police, and Mao Yun found him.
