It's not yours, you can't force it.

An An was allowed to leave the hospital earlier than Jiang Xiu. Jiang Xiu invited Aunt Wu back and let An An live in the house in Jiahe Mansion.

With Jiang Xiu's current physical condition, commuting back and forth between Banshan Villa and Songwen Group every day is simply a dream, and with Fang Yunwan's lessons learned, he is really worried about letting An An live in Banshan Villa alone.

Fortunately, there are indications that the person they need to be careful of is Song Zheng, at least there are no hidden arrows to hurt others.

Jiang Xiu would visit Shen Caiping when he was free.

It has been more than a week since the incident, neither Jiang Xiu nor Fang Yunwan's parents would give up searching.

But they also gradually accepted that finding Fang Yunwan is a long and arduous task, and it will not be accomplished overnight.The sea was endless, and they were even prepared to never find Fang Yunwan again.

Because Shen Caiping was in love with the scenery in Yucheng and was overly sad, Fang Tao finally decided to take Shen Caiping back to Ningyuan first, and entrusted the affairs here to Jiang Xiu.

The search at sea made no progress, and Jiang Xiu focused his search on the residential areas along the coast.

He had seen the empty compartment and open doors of the salvaged car, since Fang Yunwan might not have wanted to die.

Since no one was in the car, is there a possibility that Fang Yunwan had already escaped from the car when the car rolled down the hillside, or that he was rushed out of the car the moment the car fell into the sea and drifted with the crowd.

Well, maybe someone along the coast has seen him.

However, just like when Bai Ming committed suicide back then, no one saw Fang Yunwan again, but gradually some clothes were rolled up to the shore, and after being identified by those who saw Fang Yunwan that day, they were all the same as Fang Yunwan's in color and texture. Yunwan's clothes that day were very similar.

At the same time, Jiang Xiu got in touch with Zeng Qing, a private detective whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and hired him to investigate his poisoning and Fang Yunwan's accident, hoping to find evidence that Song Zheng intended to murder himself and Fang Yunwan. , while asking Songwen's internal investigation team to step up the investigation of Zhaoyang Real Estate, and clean up Zhaoyang Real Estate and moths as soon as possible.

He knew that his body was riddled with holes and had come to an end, and he only hoped that he could finish what he wanted to do before he died, so he worked nonstop, as if he wanted to exhaust his heart.

There's so much he wants to do, but he knows his time may be running out.

Before he knew it, Fang Yunwan had been missing for almost a month.

On the day he agreed to withdraw the search and rescue team from the beach, Jiang Xiu asked Xu Zhang to cancel his schedule for the next day for the first time.

In the early morning of the next day, without disturbing anyone, he called a car and went out before dawn.

It took Xu Luyao a whole day to find Jiang Xiu at the beach.

When I found Jiang Xiu, it was already sunset, and the winter sunset was not dazzling, the orange afterglow drooping listlessly on the sea surface, blown to pieces by the hunting sea breeze.Xu Luyao saw a chair standing on the beach, on which sat a man wrapped in a heavy down jacket, with an easel in front of him and a few tubes of paint piled up at his feet.

It is likely that he has been sitting here for a day, but there is only a simple red sun on the canvas.

When it comes to painting, Jiang Xiu really doesn't have much talent. In the painting of a sunrise on the sea, the lines are crooked and zigzag, and even the colors that are adjusted are dark, and there is no brilliance of the rising sun at all.

Xu Luyao was about to call him, but saw that the paint tray in Jiang Xiu's hand tilted without him knowing it, and the red paint slowly flowed out, rolled over his down jacket drop by drop, and landed on the golden sand.Then, the paintbrush in Jiang Xiu's hand fell to the ground suddenly, his body swayed, and he slowly fell sideways.

"Jiang Xiu!"

Xu Luyao stepped forward quickly, barely catching Jiang Xiu before he fell to the ground.

After a whole day of sea breeze blowing here, Jiang Xiu's whole body was icy cold, he frowned and took a few deep breaths, opened his eyes and saw Xu Luyao, his mind was still a little dazed: "Why are you here?"

Xu Luyao didn't explain too much to him, just tried to help him sit up, and asked him: "Can you walk? My car can't drive into the beach, so I'll help you there."

Jiang Xiu only cares about: "My painting."

"I'll help you to the car first, and then come back to pack these."

While talking, Xu Luyao helped Jiang Xiu up.After Jiang Xiu got up, he motioned to Xu Luyao to help him back to the easel.

Only then did Xu Luyao notice that the big clip on the upper right corner of the drawing board held a piece of sugar paper firmly on the drawing board.

It was a piece of yellowed candy paper, the style was very old, and the picture of the sunrise on the sea was also on the candy paper.Different from Jiang Xiu's painting, although the strokes of the picture between the square inches of sugar paper are immature, the colors are much stronger and brighter than Jiang Xiu's painting.

Jiang Xiu took off the candy wrapper, took out a metal business card holder from his pocket, carefully put the candy wrapper in, and then whispered to Xu Luyao, "Let's go."

Xu Luyao vaguely guessed that the candy paper had a lot to do with Fang Yunwan, but Jiang Xiu didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to ask. After sending Jiang Xiushi back to the car, he immediately turned back to the beach to pack the folding chair and Easel, and sent Jiang Xiu home without stopping.

After that, Jiang Xiu put more energy into his work.

He arranges a lot of meetings for himself every day. Through large and small meetings, he has a complete and comprehensive understanding of the current business situation of each module of Songwen Group, and then finds the relevant person in charge to communicate management ideas separately.A number of system documents under review were also expedited by Jiang Xiu. Sometimes within a day, the group would release three or four management systems from top to bottom.

Songwen's employees are keenly aware of the atmosphere of impending rain.

And investors are more sensitive than employees.

The stock prices of the listed sectors first fluctuated, and then investors in each sector successively asked executives to explain the frequent system adjustments within the group.

As a result, Jiang Xiu's schedule has many more to-do items, and his pitifully short rest time is taken out to deal with these shrewd people whose heads are about to shine.

He is a patient who has not recovered from a serious illness, how can he bear such a high-intensity work.Finally, there was an investor question-and-answer session live online. An hour before the session, Jiang Xiu had a heart attack and coughed up a lot of blood without warning.

It was a live broadcast for public investors. The news that the general manager of Songwen Group would attend had already been released, and if he was absent for no reason, he didn't know what rumors would be stirred up.Therefore, Jiang Xiu only agreed to temporarily inhale oxygen and infusion in a small room next to the conference room, and refused to go to the hospital anyway.

In such a situation, Xu Luyao was naturally called for first aid. After giving Jiang Xiu strong medicine, he was worried and stayed at the scene to wait for orders.Therefore, he had the opportunity to witness Jiang Xiu trying his best to fight back the question with high-sounding reasons.

Xu Luyao didn't understand so many development strategies and management ideas, but he felt that Jiang Xiu's answers were just excuses.

The truth is that Jiang Xiu was eager to improve Songwen's management system, so that it no longer relied on the manager's personal ability, but entered a virtuous circle of self-management according to the system.

This is what Jiang Xiu has been gradually and steadily advancing since he took over Songwen, but why is it so urgent and radical all of a sudden?

Xu Luyao probably knew the reason better than Jiang Xiu himself.

Red lanterns were hung on the streets, and the streets and alleys began to be filled with the atmosphere of the New Year’s Eve. The official account of Zhaoyang Real Estate announced the investigation results of the Nanhu project accident. The investigation team simultaneously submitted to the law enforcement agencies the Some personnel of the project company colluded with the construction party and used inferior evidence as evidence, and the relevant personnel involved were immediately taken away for investigation.

This is a pebble that stirs up ripples amidst the peace and joy.

As the New Year's Eve is approaching, people who are not interested in working have a heated discussion on this matter, and there are even different opinions within Songwen.

Because Jiang Xiu has made frequent big moves recently, he has brought up many young and promising middle-level cadres, and there are many old people involved in the incident. Some people say that Jiang Xiu made drastic innovations many years ago. , killing all the old people left by Song Qijun, and some people said that Jiang Xiu was biting the Zhaoyang real estate.

It's just worrying that the Songwen Group will fall into Song Zheng's hands in the future, looking for opportunities to suppress Song Zheng's arrogance...

What is spread is those who are far-fetched and speculative, and use evidence to reason, but no one cares.

As for Jiang Xiu, the party involved in the public opinion, after the announcement of Zhaoyang Real Estate's investigation results, he never appeared again.There were endless rumors about Jiang Xiu inside and outside the Songwen, but no one guessed that Jiang Xiu had been ill since that day.

Jiang Xiu was ordered by Xu Luyao to be admitted to the hospital for observation because of repeated fevers. On the night of admission, his heart was overloaded due to high fever, and he had a sudden heart attack, so he was sent to the emergency room.Due to the influence of the previous poisoning, Jiang Xiu's various bodily functions were severely exhausted. This illness was like a heavy snowfall on the crumbling house, almost crushing him.

Conservative treatment has almost no effect on Jiang Xiu, but more radical treatment methods are beyond his current physical condition.Xu Luyao was caught in a dilemma, struggling to find a balance, racking his brains to save Jiang Xiu.

The days are still passing day by day, and it is New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye.

A businessman is particular, he feels that he will spend the first year in the hospital, and he is afraid that he will be infected with illness throughout the year, and his condition will improve slightly, so Jiang Xiu insists on leaving the hospital and going home.Xu Luyao wanted to stop him, but he didn't try to stop him in the end, as if he also agreed with this taboo in his heart.

On New Year's Eve, a snow fell in Yucheng, which hadn't snowed for a long time.The snow covered the ground with a thin layer, some places were thicker, it was a flawless white, some places were thin, and the dusty ground could be vaguely seen, the whole corner city looked mottled like a painting The jigsaw puzzle shattered all over the place.

According to the usual practice, Jiang Xiu was going back to the old house to have dinner with Song Qijun on New Year's Eve.

When Jiang Xiu returned to the Song family's old house, Song Zheng had already arrived and was drinking tea with Song Qijun in the hall. They chatted about something, and the two laughed loudly.

When Jiang Xiu walked into the hall, it was like a handful of snow fell on his head and face, and the lively atmosphere condensed a bit.

He had to admit that Song Zheng was much more resourceful than him when it came to dealing with the world, as if anyone could be coaxed into submission by him.

In contrast, Jiang Xiu's abilities were pitifully lacking, and Fang Yunwan was enough to make him burn out.

The reunion dinner in the evening was also lukewarm.When Jiang Xiu returned to the old house, he used to talk less, but now he is seriously ill, and he doesn't have the energy to deal with Song Qijun and Song Zheng, so he simply doesn't speak.After a meal, the atmosphere on the table is restrained, polite, and alienated.

Song Qijun is getting older, and he wants to see the happy and harmonious family scene more than when he was young. He is very kind to Jiang Xiu, and he has nothing to say: "Xiaoxiu has lost weight recently? Is it too hard at the end of the year?"

Such questions did not occur frequently in Jiang Xiu's decades of dealing with Song Qijun, so that he was stunned for a while before responding with an "um".

After thinking about it, he continued: "I fell in love with a clever newcomer and wanted to propose him as a secretary. But this person disappeared later."

Jiang Xiu was answering Song Qijun's words, but his eyes were fixed on Song Zheng all the time: "Speaking of which, my uncle should also know this person. His name is Fang Yunwan. I heard that on his first day of employment, my uncle invited him Drink tea in your office."

"Yes, he is a young man with great ideas in architectural design. He is also a top student in the Department of Architecture of Yucheng University, but I don't know why he didn't work in architectural design after graduating from university." Song Zheng smiled harmlessly. With an appearance of sincerely asking questions, "Xiaoxiu, did you ask him the reason when you interviewed him?"

"No." Jiang Xiu looked cold, "This man has disappeared recently, and you admire him so much, I wonder if you have used tricks to poach him away from me."

Song Zheng smiled, implying something: "What's yours is yours, what's not yours, you can't force it."
