When Ye Shaowen knocked on the door of Jiang Cheng's office, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. He had thought of all kinds of scenarios, including the scene of Jiang Cheng committing suicide in the office.
The room was filled with thick and suffocating smoke. Jiang Cheng sat in the middle of a pile of cigarette butts and stared at his phone blankly. Ye Shaowen said helplessly, "Boss, what happened?
What happened? You're just sitting here like a piece of trash.
Seeing that Jiang Cheng didn't have any reaction, Ye Shaowen smiled bitterly. He walked over and took out a cigarette from the cigarette box next to Jiang Cheng. He lit it up and took a deep breath. "I guessed it even if you didn't say it. It was sister-in-law's call."
Jiang Cheng didn't say anything. He fiercely extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand and said in a complicated tone, "The operation is about to start. She asked me to go back.
Speaking of which, boss, you haven't been back for a long time. " Ye Shaowen looked at the blue smoke slowly drifting in front of him. He smiled and said faintly, "Actually, I think you should go back at least once.
Didn't I take the lead in all the previous operations? Now is an important period for the transformation of the gang. It's fine if I leave now, but what if the brothers become hostile because of this small matter? What can we do in the future? Do we want them to think that the invincible and invincible boss in their hearts is actually a piece of trash who will hide behind when the situation is dangerous? "
Jiang Cheng smiled bitterly. "Of course I want to go back. In the beginning, I took this path because of your sister-in-law. Now that I have to make a choice between my family and my career, what should I do?
Anyway, you have to come up with an idea as soon as possible. " Ye Shaowen patted his shoulder in a comforting manner and said in a deep voice, "And this also put a new mission on my agenda. I have to say these words to the brothers."
"You mean …?" Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly again.
Yes, if we want to focus our development overseas in the future, many people have to be prepared to not be able to return home for the rest of their lives. They must be separated from their families and motherland for a long time, or even forever.
Ye Shaowen flicked his fingers lightly, and the cigarette butt in his hand that was about to burn out drew a beautiful arc in the air. At this moment, his voice carried a hint of confusion, "I know that many of them are still children. They stepped into the underground path purely because they had no other choice or were forced by life. But it's time for them to make a decision, so you have to be ready.
Jiang Cheng fell into a long silence again. After an unknown period of time, he said indifferently, "Whoever wants to leave, I will let them go." Today, I'll give everyone a break to finish the things on hand. Three days later, those who are still willing to stay, let them gather here. Those who don't want to come back, give them a settlement allowance and let them go. After all … speaking up to this point, Jiang Cheng paused for a moment and didn't continue.
Ye Shaowen knew that the half sentence that Jiang Cheng didn't say was that after all, they were useless. He let out a long sigh and said, "Then what are you going to do?"
"Of course, I will go back and say goodbye to them like them. It's also a farewell to the past that I once dreamed of, but now I have to completely abandon for a wider world." Jiang Cheng's voice was a bit hoarse, making it hard to tell whether it was sadness, nostalgia, determination, or something else.
"Okay, I will arrange it right away." Ye Shaowen nodded, turned around and walked out. When the office door was gently closed, Jiang Cheng was probably the only one who knew that the photo he took out from his coat pocket had indeed made him want to give up his current plan.
In fact, there was no need to go through so much trouble. Jiang Cheng walked out of the office and casually stopped a taxi on the side of the road. He said in a low voice, "To Chengnuo Group."
After a long time, seeing that the driver had no intention of driving, Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment. Seeing that the driver looked at him as if he was an alien, he touched his nose strangely and said in a complicated tone, "What's wrong, sir? Is there a flower on my face?"
The driver seemed to have woken up from a dream and said, "No, no, no, brother, I just envy you." Then, he started the car and drove forward.
Looking at the scenery on the street quickly passing by, Jiang Cheng was silent for a moment and asked, "Envy me for what?"
As the driver easily bypassed the car in front of him, he said with certainty, "Judging from your appearance, you look like a university student who just graduated not long ago. The Cheng Nuo Group that you're going to is the most famous company in Shanghai with the most beautiful women."
"Oh?" Jiang Cheng had never heard of this. What was his wife up to this time? Did she change her sexual orientation because he hadn't been back for too long?
"Looks like your girlfriend should be working at Chengnuo Group, right?" The driver saw his surprised expression and thought that he was right, so he said proudly.
"How did you know?" Jiang Cheng was indeed shocked for two seconds.
"Sigh, you are still young. When you reach my age, you will naturally understand a lot of things." The driver smiled mysteriously and didn't say anything else. He focused on driving.
The headquarters of the Lung Hing Society wasn't far from Chengnuo Group. This was probably the intentional arrangement of Jiang Cheng. Fortunately, there wasn't any large-scale traffic congestion in Shanghai at this time, so it only took him twenty minutes to get there.
After paying the fare, Jiang Cheng adjusted his collar and looked up at the tall building with the shining words "Chengnuo Group" on top. Suddenly, a strange feeling of time and space intertwining surged in his heart.
At that time, he also stood at the bottom of this building like this, looking up at the so-called upper-class life. He desperately wanted to integrate into it. Now, he was even the actual owner of this building. Even the company's name was changed by Mino to include two people's names. How could he walk in and say without guilt, "I'm leaving, take care of yourself?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng's hesitant look through the windshield, the driver had an encouraging smile on his face. He made a gesture of encouragement to Jiang Cheng and shouted, "Young man, don't be afraid. You have to fight for your own happiness! I believe you can do it! "
A few black lines suddenly appeared on Jiang Cheng's forehead, but his heart was warm. He turned around and nodded at the driver. He walked straight to the entrance of the building.
"Sir, do you have an appointment?" Jiang Cheng was about to walk in like before, but a young man in a new security uniform stopped him and spoke in a very polite tone.
"No." Jiang Cheng was indeed a little surprised at this time. The security work of Cheng Nuo Group had been handed over to the Lung Hing Society a long time ago. Zhuge Liuyun also attached great importance to this when he was in China. He trained the elite forces of the gang before letting them take up the post. If these people didn't recognize him, they would probably be beaten up by Zhuge Liuyun. But what was the situation with this young security guard?
"Sorry, if you don't have an appointment, you can't go in." The young security guard said in a business-like manner, but he secretly cursed in his heart, "What the hell is this? He's dressed so shabbily. He looks like an idle youth. What important matter can he have here? If I rashly let this person in, if the head of the security department finds out, I'm afraid this high-paying job will be ruined."
Jiang Cheng suddenly felt very depressed. He didn't have any identification with him. At this time, Mino should also be in a meeting. His few acquaintances in the group couldn't be found for the time being. What should he do?
As a husband, did he have to make an appointment to see his wife?
But at this time, he didn't have any better ideas. He could only helplessly sit on the bench next to him. He opened his phone and swiped for a long time. Looking at the names in his address book, he suddenly felt a wave of annoyance. He simply opened the Tetris that he downloaded a long time ago and played it.
The young security guard curiously came over to take a look. He disdainfully curled his lips and said, "You still play this?"
Jiang Cheng didn't raise his head and said, "What's wrong? Is it very outdated?
It's more than outdated. It's simply old-fashioned to the point where it angers people and gods. " The young security guard frowned and looked at Jiang Cheng's black phone. He asked again, "Your phone looks so old."
Jiang Cheng scratched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment, "Actually, I don't know what kind of phone this is. My friend gave it to me.
I'm afraid it's an old product that someone used up. " The young security guard secretly sneered. He felt that it was meaningless and walked away. Anyway, if Jiang Cheng wanted to stay here, he would never let him in.
After a while, a young and beautiful girl in an office lady uniform ran out of the building. Seeing her coming toward him, the young security guard's eyes suddenly lit up. He very narcissistically tidied up his hair, and then very coquettishly greeted her. He was still fantasizing in his heart what he should do if this girl that he had a crush on for a long time shyly jumped into his arms, but he suddenly froze in place.
This girl actually rushed over to the hooligan that he stopped!
The young security guard suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Could it be that this girl's eyes are not good? How can such an old-fashioned little hooligan compare to a handsome and elegant security guard like me?
