After drifting for so many years, she was still alone in the dusk of a foreign land. Many unfamiliar faces passed by under the flashing neon lights with indifference and disregard, dragging long shadows behind them. It was then that a sense of loss took root in her heart.
She had been working hard, exhausting the last bit of perseverance in her body for her future. Now that she had fallen sick, she suddenly missed that quiet and warm home far away. The purplish-red sorghum, the light yellow soybeans, and the dark yellow corn all exuded a unique smell.
The tear that had yet to flow was imprinted in Li He's eyes. He said hurriedly, "I'll just go home during the winter break."
"It's okay." He Fang wiped the corner of her eye. Her light brows, elegant nose, and petal-like lips pursed into a smile. "The older you get, the more useless you become."
When the drip bottle was almost empty, Li He was about to call the nurse when He Fang pulled it out herself. The needle hole on the back of her hand slowly bled.
"The blood is back." Li He used half a cotton ball to press the blood vessel on the back of her hand. "Why are you in such a hurry?"
He felt that her hand was very cold. When he looked up at her face, it was completely red.
"It's okay." He Fang pulled her hand out of his palm without leaving a trace. She didn't say anything for a long time.
"Oh." This was a little abrupt. Li He felt very awkward.
He Fang went to the washroom. Li He carried the thermos to the entrance to smoke.
When she reached the entrance, she smiled at Li He. "You can go back. I'll just walk back from here. "
Seeing her pale face, Li He didn't know what to feel. He only said, "You still want to go to work tomorrow? Rest for a few days. "
"It's nothing. I'm not that fragile. Don't worry about it. Go back." He Fang took the thermos from Li He's hand. She ignored the car door that Li He had opened and walked out of the hospital without looking back. Then, she took a deep breath.
The night was silent in the darkness of terror. The silence seemed to have spread to the whole world. The crescent moon secretly hid in the hazy night, giving people a cold and depressing light. It moved forward very carefully, for fear of breaking this silent world.
Li He stood where he was, hesitating. Looking at the gradually disappearing back, he felt a little apprehensive, as if he would never be able to return.
That familiar figure gradually blurred and finally disappeared.
He got into the car and sat silently in the driver's seat. He smoked two cigarettes in a row before starting the car.
When he got home, he had just opened the door when Old Man Zhang arrived.
"Your international friend with the surname Shen has already called seven or eight times. When I called you, you weren't there."
"Oh, I went out for a while."
"I think they'll fight again later."
Li He locked the door again and followed Old Man Zhang to the phone booth.
A few minutes later, Shen Daoru called again. "Mr. Li, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were looking for me."
"You're really busy."
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry. I have fired the secretary who answered the phone. You can rest assured that this kind of thing will not happen again." Even through the phone, Shen Daoru could feel the coldness in Li He's tone.
"Got it." Li He hung up. He didn't want to say a word more.
Only Shen Daoru was left holding the phone anxiously. As the three groups of people from the law firm, the accounting firm, and the auditing firm entered, there were questions from accountants, lawyers, and appraisers, as well as the third, fourth, and fifth drafts of accounting reports, valuation reports, and legal opinions …
He felt more and more constrained.
He understood Li He's thoughts. After all, he was not a qualified professional manager. Li He did not trust him with such great power. It was normal to have supervision.
The current audit standards of Yuan Da were not much different from those of listed companies. In some aspects, they were even stricter than those of listed companies. According to Li He, it was necessary to establish a standardized modern corporate system as early as possible.
For Shen Daoru, this system change had both advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage was that he was trapped in the planning authorization system. For example, the right to participate in major events, the right to know information, the right to make decisions within the scope of professional jurisdiction, and the allocation and use of human, material, and financial resources were strictly limited. The requirements for discipline were very high.
The benefits were obvious. An effective regular performance evaluation system linked his performance directly to his position, salary, bonus, etc. He got 0.5% of the options. From then on, he became a real part of the company. This made him so excited that he couldn't sleep for a few nights.
In the past year, his name constantly appeared in the headlines of media articles at the same time as some top tycoons. Wealth nouveau riche, capital darling, bloody crocodile. Especially in the past few days, he joined the ranks of the rescue, which made him even more famous. For a time, he was in the limelight.
At this time, he began to worry about gains and losses. For a time, he was afraid that Li He would abandon him. Standing in his current position, any dream of being a lawyer would go to hell. He had slowly become addicted to wealth and power.
He sighed, then slowly put down the phone and dialed the number of the secretary's office.
"Mr. Shen."
The secretary hurried over. This was the new secretary who had been promoted quickly today. She was tall and light.
Today, Shen Daoru's temper made her know that the boss was not as gentle as he looked. When he was angry, it was also very scary. The previous secretary had been working for more than a year, and he fired her just like that. It could be said that he did not give her any face at all. This made the new secretary feel uneasy. It was so unrealistic to make friends with the boss. It was such a suicidal behavior to rely on the boss's favor to be arrogant!
The first order she received after taking over was that as long as it was Mr. Li's phone call, she must answer it immediately.
She couldn't help but ask carefully, "What if you are in a meeting?" Shen Daoru said very seriously, "Then answer it and call me, remember!"
But she still did not know who Mr. Li was. She could only secretly remind herself not to provoke anyone with the surname Li.
Shen Daoru said, "See if there are any business courses in Hong Kong University. Help me register for a class."
"Okay, Mr. Shen." The secretary hurriedly picked up the notes on the memo. Seeing that Shen Daoru did not say anything, she turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait." Shen Daoru seemed to think of something again. "Help me buy all the business books on the market. Chinese and English versions are fine. "
