The little bit of Mu's shares was An Yajing's last bargaining chip, and it was also the last bit of comfort that Mu Lianchen left for her.
But now, it was obvious that An Yajing didn't want anything.
It wasn't a person who had nothing, but a person who was willing to lose everything and stake it all on one throw.
Yu Zhouzhou ran over and helped Jiang Yansheng in. "How do you know it's eight million?"
Jiang Yansheng smiled meaningfully. "I guessed."
In fact, she had been paying attention to the Mu Group's capital flow before. Someone once offered eight million to buy An Yajing's shares, but An Yajing didn't sell it at that time.
Now she probably changed her mind.
"Okay." Yu Zhouzhou sighed softly and looked at Jiang Yansheng who was calculating confidently and frowning slightly because of the pain. He felt bad. "If you ask me, you shouldn't have paid attention to her."
Jiang Yansheng smiled. "It's not a losing deal."
She needed An Yajing's money.
"Does it hurt?" Yu Zhouzhou sighed. "What's going on …"
When she raised her head, her eyes were red. She reached out her hand to rudely wipe away the corner of Jiang Yansheng's mouth. "Stop laughing, Yansheng. It's an eyesore to me!"
"You're not happy. Why are you smiling?"
Yu Zhouzhou's worried eyes were like a hammer gently knocking on Jiang Yansheng's heart, and the smile on her mouth suddenly became much more real.
"I didn't like to smile before."
Jiang Yansheng looked down and recalled something that had been sealed for a long time.
Just like how sadness and happiness always happened together, people who were as sweet as pearl candy were always involved with unfortunate people.
"When I was a child, I was kidnapped many times because of my family. I escaped once." "Because I didn't know the way, I ended up in an orphanage. It's called an orphanage, but it's still very run-down."
"I was very scared at that time. My whole body was trembling. I was afraid that they would take me back because they would tie me up in a small, dark room with no light or sound."
When Jiang Yansheng talked about the kidnapping case that made the whole family tremble with fear, he played it down.
"I met a little boy in the orphanage. No one seemed to care for him. I thought it was a haunted house and refused to go in. He sat on the steps and talked to me. "
"He asked me what kind of person I wanted to be in the future, and I said I wanted to be happy and free. Isn't happiness very simple? As long as you smile, you will become happy. " Jiang Yansheng couldn't help but laugh at such naive words. "I didn't really understand at the time, and I thought what he said made sense. After I went home, I became like this."
"But later, I realized that wearing a smile every day still doesn't make me a happy person."
How could there be such a simple reason in the world?
Jiang Yansheng's gaze was slightly tilted, and he had an emotionless smile. "But when I realized it, I found that I couldn't change it."
"But it's good that way. When I was a child, my father beat me because I always cried, but he never beat me again."
"It's a blessing in disguise."
Jiang Yansheng said half of what he wanted to say.
He didn't say that when they left the orphanage, the boy gave her the worn-out plush toy that he had been holding in his hand. The plush toy was very worn-out but very clean. The left ear was torn open, and half a ball of cotton fell out. It looked very painful.
He also didn't say that the boy sat on the steps with her for the whole night and said that he wanted to be a person who could make her happy and free.
Later, she begged her mother to take her back to the orphanage, and asked all the people who were close to her mother. However, when she returned to the orphanage, the boy was gone.
The director said that he had been taken away.
The night when she sat on the cold steps and talked excitedly was like a bubble in a dream. The longer time passed, the more dreamy and distant it became.
Sometimes, even she herself didn't know if that boy really existed.
…
The next morning, Yu Zhouzhou deliberately got up early to help Jiang Yansheng remove the gauze, change the dressing, and rebandage the wound.
"Okay, okay." Jiang Yansheng spread her whole arm on the table. Because of Yu Zhouzhou's unskilled technique, she couldn't help but gasp. This feeling was a thousand times more anxious than when she directly cut the wound yesterday.
She couldn't help but softly say, "Zhouzhou, don't wrap so much like the doctor did yesterday. Two layers will be enough."
When Yu Zhouzhou's sharp and fierce gaze swept over, Jiang Yansheng sat up straight with one hand raised to the sky and swore, "I feel very good after sleeping last night. It really doesn't hurt at all."
Yesterday, when she came back with a swollen hand, she was sweating all over even pulling up her pants.
In fact, the wound looked like it was bleeding a lot and was relatively serious. Now that it had begun to heal, she directly felt a lot more confident.
Yu Zhouzhou hit Jiang Yansheng's forehead hard with one finger. "Keep bragging! How can such a big wound not hurt? "
As she spoke, she tightened the bandage on her hand. Jiang Yansheng's back stiffened, and he couldn't help but shrink back.
"Does it hurt?" Although Yu Zhouzhou said harsh words, he still controlled the strength of his hand and didn't break Jiang Yansheng's wound.
Without waiting for Jiang Yansheng to reply, she continued to say, "It's right that it hurts! Learn a lesson! Look at your brainless face, I'm afraid that you'll be abducted by others in the future. "
Jiang Yansheng was speechless.
Why did she feel that Yu Zhouzhou had become more and more naggy after the breakup?
"Did you hear that?"
"Yes, I heard it." Jiang Yansheng subconsciously raised his hand high in surrender and smiled lazily. "Since Zhouzhou is so considerate of me, of course I'll remember it in my heart."
She moved her face forward and asked in a roundabout way, "How have you been at the new company recently?"
"It's been pretty good." Yu Zhouzhou's eyes flickered, and his voice was slightly low. "My mom seems to have arranged a blind date for me these two days."
"A blind date?" The smile at the corner of Jiang Yansheng's mouth froze.
Yu Zhouzhou's gaze was fixed on the white bandage, and his eyes were also white. He smiled with a pale face. "I can't get out of it even if I struggle. Maybe if I distract myself, I won't feel so bad."
Jiang Yansheng pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
She wanted to persuade Yu Zhouzhou not to go. It was impossible to let go of a relationship of seven or eight years so easily. Moreover, Yu Zhouzhou seemed to be the deeper party in this relationship.
However, when the words were at the tip of her tongue, they became extremely dry. Jiang Yansheng closed her eyes.
"Well, if you meet a suitable one, bring him to me."
Yu Zhouzhou's eyes were squinted when he smiled.
"Of course."
…
Early in the morning, the floor of the design department was very quiet. Basically, no one came.
Jiang Yansheng roughly dealt with the work at hand and went to the pantry to pour a cup of coffee.
She heard a "ding" sound, and the door of the elevator next to the pantry opened.
She subconsciously turned around and happened to see the person standing at the door of the elevator.
Jiang Yansheng kept pressing the button until the water overflowed and scalded her hand. She then snapped back to her senses. She frowned slightly and quickly retracted her gaze. She tilted the cup and poured out the excess water.
She pretended to casually turn out of the pantry.
The man in the suit and leather shoes had a gloomy expression on his face. He was looking into the design department.
"Director Wang, what are you looking for?" Jiang Yansheng asked softly and carelessly blew away the layer of white foam floating on the top of the coffee cup. The rich smell of coffee wafted in the air.
Wang Yiran was startled by Jiang Yansheng's sudden voice behind him. He staggered and turned around in a panic. "Why is Director Jiang here?"
Jiang Yansheng smiled. "Isn't this the design department? What's so strange about me being here? "
"It's a rare thing for Director Wang, who is so far away from us, to suddenly appear here."
His eyes fell on Jiang Yansheng's pale and glowing face. Soon, he was attracted by the many circles of bandages on her hand. He could not help but smile gloatingly. "What happened to Director Jiang? Was there a car accident? "
Jiang Yansheng's mouth twitched. He put his hand behind his back and coughed lightly. "It's just a small wound. It will heal after a while."
"Who is Director Wang looking for here?"
Last time, she heard An Di say that Wang Yiran was looking for her, but she didn't believe it.
She didn't expect to run into Wang Yiran today.
Wang Yiran's expression was a little bad. He straightened his neat tie and said coldly, "Director Jiang is looking for you. She asked me to come down personally."
"Director Jiang, please go to the top floor in half an hour."
Holding the warm coffee cup in his hand, Jiang Yansheng couldn't help but smile. "Did I hear it right?"
"Did Director Wang do something wrong and get demoted?" She looked at Wang Yiran up and down cynically, and finally landed on his glossy hair. "Since when do you need to bother Director Wang's precious legs with such a trivial matter as informing someone?"
"In the past, Director Jiang called me directly. He has never made such a big fuss."
Wang Yiran couldn't breathe after hearing her words. His eyes were full of anger and disdain, but he had to put on a fake smile and talk to her. "Director Jiang is too polite. It's because Director Jiang's rank is higher. Director Jiang happened to be talking to me about the product development, so he asked me to come down and call Director Jiang up."
His eyes were a little uncertain. "Director Jiang seems to think that Director Jiang may not be able to be called up by the phone, so he asked me to come in person."
Jiang Yansheng raised his eyebrows and calmly called his diligent assistant.
"Put it on the left side of my table. If the water is warm later, pour it and make a new cup. Three-quarters of the water, and add less sugar."
She calmly pointed out the direction, and the assistant hurriedly nodded.
When Jiang Yansheng turned around, Wang Yiran was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's Director Wang?" She felt a little strange and pressed the elevator light.
The assistant nervously pushed up her sliding glasses. "He seems to have gone to the next department."
Jiang Yansheng curled his lips.
