Chapter 110: resignation
Translator: 549690339
Since she had made up her mind, Anran knew what to do. The next morning, she went to the company and typed her resignation letter in her office. Then, she got up and went straight to Huang Dexing’s office.
As she stood in front of Huang Dexing’s office, out of courtesy and respect, Anran raised her hand and knocked on the door. &Quot; knock, knock, knock ... &Quot;
An ran didn’t open the door and go in until she heard him call her in.
Huang Dexing raised his head from the computer and saw that it was Anran who had come in. He smiled faintly and leaned back, as if he had known she would come.
“An ran, sit down.” Huang Dexing said as he gestured at the seat in front of him.
An ran also smiled faintly, pulled out the chair in front of her desk, and sat down.
“Is there an answer?” Huang Dexing asked tentatively. According to his calculations, after she considered it, the answer she gave him should be satisfactory. In fact, he was just being careful to make sure nothing went wrong.
Anran nodded. &Quot; yes, ” she said, ” I’ve thought about it over the past few days. I’ve thought about it carefully. &Quot;
Hearing this, Huang Dexing was overjoyed. He looked at her and slowly asked, ” “You agree?” If she agreed, then ‘Jing Cheng’ would have a higher chance of winning the competition. If technology City had a higher chance of winning, then his promotion to general manager at the end of the year would no longer be a matter of formality.
Anran didn’t say anything. She reached out and handed him the resignation letter that she had just typed out before she came. The paper was still warm from the printing.
Huang Dexing took it happily, but when he looked down, the smile on his face suddenly froze, and then he could no longer laugh. He suddenly looked up at her, and his tone suddenly became a little stern. &Quot; “What do you mean by this!” He thought that he would get a satisfactory answer after waiting for a few days, but he didn’t expect to get this piece of broken paper! She had thought that she would refuse to cooperate, but she had never thought that she would actually hand in her resignation letter and ‘quit’!
Anran met his gaze fearlessly and simply said, ” I’ve thought about it for a few days. Although I was ‘sincere’ when I graduated, and it’s not like I didn’t miss it after seven years, there are still some things that I think are difficult for me to do. Also, this time, it’s because of my relationship that such a big mess has happened. I guess this can be considered as taking the blame and resigning. &Quot;
“You ...” Huang Dexing looked at her, his grip on the resignation letter tightening. After a while, he asked, ” “Anran, you’ve caused quite a bit of trouble this time. Do you think you can make up for it by taking the blame and resigning? What about the company’s losses? you should know how much effort the company has put into the ‘Mobile Manor’ project. Who will be responsible for the losses of tens of millions?”
......
Anran smiled faintly and shook her head. &Quot; director, you know better than anyone else whether I have any responsibility or not. Don’t you? ”
Hearing this, Huang Dexing looked at her steadily and quickly looked away. He only said, ” “You were the one who lost the design. Even if Chen Cheng stole it, the design was in your office and didn’t fall. Also, when I said I was going to fire Chen Cheng, who was the one who tried to protect her? if I don’t blame you, who else can I blame?”
Anran said lightly and slowly, ” if I say that I’ve seen Chen Cheng, will you still think that I’m responsible for this? ”
Huang Dexing was taken aback and looked at her fixedly, a little surprised. The plan that he had secretly planned for a long time had actually been resolved by her so easily?
He looked at her in disbelief and asked, ” you ... You really met Chen Cheng? ” Chen Cheng was in urgent need of money. Didn’t she leave on the same day?
Anran nodded, looked at him, and said with a faint smile, ” “She told me the reason for the theft, and even the person who stole the picture. Director, who do you think is the person who gave Chen Cheng money to steal the blueprint from the office?”
Huang Dexing’s expression stiffened, and his eyes on her became hollow. He turned his head, and after a while, he thought of something. Suddenly, he looked at her again and said, ” &Quot; even if the blueprint is lost, do you think the company will not hold you responsible for the sudden collapse of the sample room? ”
Anran sighed. &Quot; whether the collapse of the sample room is really related to me or not, and whether there is a problem with the drawings, I think you know all of this. &Quot;
&Quot; Hmph! &Quot; Huang Dexing snorted coldly and said, ” if I insist that it’s your design’s problem, do you think the company will believe me or you? ”
An ran chuckled and looked into his eyes. &Quot; “I admit that I’m not smart, but I’m not so stupid that I don’t know that I’m being stepped on.”
Huang Dexing looked at her steadily. Perhaps he had really underestimated her. He had thought that she was talented in design, but was very slow in other things. He had been tricked by Xiao Xiao several times, but she had not retaliated. He did not expect that her heart was as clear as a mirror, and she had already seen through everything.
“Director, if I’m not wrong, you’re undoubtedly trying to force me to give in and ask Yicheng for help. Yicheng is in charge of the construction of Technology City, so all projects, big and small, have to go through him. I’m his wife, so if I ask him for a project, he will definitely give me face. Then, we will definitely win the ‘sincere’ bidding. I don’t know if you’ve been using the ‘Mobile Manor’ project as a trap from the start, or if you’ve given up on it after seeing the design, but I want to say that it’s a wrong decision to use such a project and such an investment to force me to give in.”
Huang Dexing ignored her and said directly, ” “Anran, think about it carefully. If you really want to resign, the company will definitely pursue this accident to the end. Also, do you think there’ll be any company that’ll still hire you if you leave ‘sincerity’ and work in the construction industry?” It was almost impossible for a designer who had such a major accident to continue in the construction industry.
Anran shook her head, chuckled, and said, ” &Quot; you just want to use me to get the technology City project because you know that I’m su Yicheng’s wife. If I ask him, he’ll definitely help me. &Quot; She suddenly changed the topic and asked him, ” &Quot; then, if su Yicheng knows that I’m being suppressed so unfairly in the company, do you think he’ll still be ‘sincere’ about the project? ”
Huang Dexing was taken aback. He had not thought of this question.
Anran sneered and said, ” do you think I can make su Yicheng agree to get the project? can’t I complain to the company and make it unable to get a project? ” You can use me to get the technology City project, but can’t I use su Yicheng’s authority to make you get nothing?” He could threaten her, and she could threaten him in turn.
Huang Dexing looked at her steadily. He had never thought about this at all.
Anran looked at Huang Dexing’s stunned expression and knew that she had scared him. She stood up, looked at him, and said, ” “Thank you, director, for taking care of me for the past seven years. I’ve learned a lot in ‘sincerity’, whether it’s about people or things.” An ran said pointedly.
Huang Dexing looked at her without saying a word, but his face was no longer as livid as before.
Anran ignored the ugly expression on his face and only said, ” &Quot; regarding the manor project, I believe that there’s absolutely no problem with the design. In addition, I think the director will know more about where the design went after it was stolen and how the sample room collapsed. I don’t think I should or need to take responsibility for these. As for my resignation now, I can pay the amount for the breach of contract according to the contract. As for the work I have on hand, I have basically completed it. Of course, I will find someone to hand it over to.” In the end, he looked at Huang Dexing’s eyes, which were about to burst into flames, and said, ” “Then if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.” After that, he turned around and left his office.
In the office, Huang Dexing clutched the resignation letter she had handed in and clenched it tightly into a ball. Anran was right. This move of his was a huge failure. He thought that he could use this to make her submit, but he didn’t expect her to directly checkmate him. This time, he had really lost both the wife and the Army!
Anran really left. Almost as soon as she came out of Huang Dexing’s office, she called for her colleagues in the hall outside to hand over the work on hand.
In fact, there was not much work to hand over. She just had to sort out the files of some previous projects for him, and the reconstruction cases on her hand were almost completed, so there was not much of a problem. As a result, the handover process was very smooth.
When Anran finished packing her things and left with the paper box, she walked to the elevator at the entrance of the office building. When she turned back to look at these things, she had an indescribable feeling.
The office girl had a good relationship with her. When she saw her at the elevator, she saw that her eyes were slightly red and secretly avenged her. Anran smiled at her calmly and told her to read more books. It would be best if she could pass the architect’s certificate. It would be of some use to her.
She took the elevator down with the box in her arms. The moment the elevator door opened, she met Xiao Xiao, who was waiting in front of the elevator door. Xiao Xiao was slightly stunned when she saw her. It took her a while before she realized that she was leaving.”You just resigned?”
Anran smiled at her lightly. &Quot; isn’t this what you want? ”
Xiao Xiao shrugged and said,”that’s what I want.” &Nbsp; If she left, no one would fight with her anymore. How could it not be good?
Anran only glanced at her and didn’t say anything. She walked past her with the box in her arms and left.
It wasn’t even noon when she returned home with her things. Her resignation was a little sudden, and she had no plans for what to do next. In fact, su Yicheng had something to do with her immediate resignation with Huang Dexing because of what he had said last night. He said that he would take care of her for the rest of her life. It seemed that with his words, she really had nothing to be afraid of.
He took the things back to the study and gave Lin xiaofen a call. He had originally planned to go home in the afternoon to see her, but he didn’t expect her to act so quickly and go to work early in the morning. Anran sighed helplessly. She knew her mother’s temper. Even if she resigned, she would follow the procedures step by step.
She only told her to take good care of herself and not to tire herself out before hanging up the phone. She didn’t want to tell her about her resignation for the time being because she didn’t want her to worry about her.
As a result, it seemed like she really had nothing to do. She leaned back on the sofa and looked up at the ceiling for a long time. In the end, Anran decided that she still had to practice her terrible cooking skills first. This meant that she would really have to rely on su Yicheng to support her in the future, so she couldn’t be too insatiable and not do anything, but still ask him to cook for her every day after work. Although su Yicheng said that he was willing, she would still feel embarrassed.
With that thought in mind, Anran made up her mind to practice her cooking skills while she was away from work. Even if she couldn’t make the dishes look, smell, and taste good, she could at least make them barely enough to go with the meal.
Since he said so, he decided to do it. He took his wallet and keys and went out to buy the ingredients for today.
She pushed the shopping cart into the fresh food section of the supermarket. Anran tried her best to pick out the food that was easy to cook and easy to cook. This time, Anran’s goal was very clear. She didn’t want to make it so delicious or beautiful that it would make people hungry. She just wanted it to be neither burnt nor cooked. It was that simple.
He put the fresh cabbages into the shopping cart. It was almost noon, and there were very few people in the supermarket. The few people made it seem a little empty, so any conversation that was slightly louder could be heard clearly.
So, when a woman giggled and acted coquettishly toward the man next to her, Anran could clearly hear their conversation.
“Brother Xiang, I want to eat this. Can you cook it for me later?” The woman said with a sweet and beautiful voice.
The man’s answer was a little slow, but also a little simple. &Quot; yes. &Quot;
As if she had seen something more to her liking, the woman ran forward and pointed to the food on the counter. She said to the man behind her, ” “Aiya, right, right, I also want this.”
Anran didn’t hear the man’s answer. In fact, she didn’t really mean to hear it. She didn’t have the intention of eavesdropping, although she was a little envious of the man and woman behind her.
She continued to push the cart forward and chose the ingredients that were suitable for her. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her shoulder. She saw a figure running quickly past her and heading to the seafood area not far in front of her. She pointed to the packed fish in the cabinet and said, ” brother Xiang, let’s make braised fish later. I love your braised fish the most. &Quot;
It was only then that Anran saw the woman in front of her clearly. Her eyes suddenly widened, and she turned around. As expected, the man pushing the shopping cart behind her was none other than Chengxiang!
Chengxiang also saw her. At first, he was stunned, but then he happily walked over to her. &Quot; Anran. &Quot;
Anran sneered. She had really thought that he had realized that the person he loved was Lin Li. She had even wanted to talk to Lin Li and ask for her opinion. If Lin Li still couldn’t forget him, then she could help them from within. She didn’t expect that he was just putting on an act. Look, wasn’t he with this woman? he even personally accompanied her to the supermarket, and later, he would personally go home and cook for her. Haha, if he still said that he didn’t have anything for this woman, she would never believe it!
Chengxiang pushed his cart toward her. &Quot; Anran, what a coincidence. &Quot;
Anran sneered. She looked at him, then turned to look at Xiaoxiao. &Quot; yeah, what a coincidence. &Quot;
Chengxiang didn’t notice her cold attitude. He only wanted to ask her about Lin Li’s situation. &Quot; Lin Li, have you been in contact with her recently? is she okay? ” He had stayed in Lin Li’s old home for more than a month, but there was no news of her at all. He knew that he had hurt her too deeply, so it was understandable that she was avoiding him now. During this period of time, he had been thinking that if all this was what she wanted, if all this was good for her, then he would stay far away. As long as he knew that she was doing well, it would be fine.
Anran looked at him and said sarcastically, ” “What does her well-being have to do with you?” Could he be any more hypocritical? on one hand, he was talking about how much he loved Lin Li, but on the other hand, he was still with this woman. Was he really the Chengxiang they knew back then? how could a person change so much before and after, so much that she couldn’t recognize him at all!
“I ... I just want to know if she’s doing well.” Lin Li didn’t give him any chance or information, so Anran was the only person he could still contact.
“Big brother Xiang.” Xiaoxiao came back again and took Chengxiang’s hand. She looked at Anran guardedly. She remembered Anran, the woman who had splashed red wine and made a scene in the restaurant.
He looked at them coldly. He really didn’t want to say anything more to such people. He turned around and walked straight ahead.
“An ran!” Chengxiang wanted to stop her, but his hand was pulled by Xiaoxiao, who was beside him. He looked at Xiaoxiao and finally understood the look in Anran’s eyes when she looked at him. A bitter smile appeared on his lips, and he reached out to pull Xiaoxiao’s hand down.
Anran was so focused on walking forward that she didn’t notice if there was anyone in front of her. When she bumped into the shopping cart that was parked in front of her, Anran raised her head and noticed a man pushing a shopping cart in front of her. There was a child beside him, and the child was staring at her with his big black eyes.
Anran didn’t expect to meet so many acquaintances while shopping at the supermarket. She looked at Zhou han and smiled awkwardly at her loss of self-control. &Quot; what a coincidence. &Quot;
Zhou han looked at her and still didn’t have much expression on his face. He said indifferently, ” “Yeah, what a coincidence.” In fact, he didn’t notice her just now. It was Xiao bin who noticed her. He pulled on the corner of his shirt and pointed to her who was talking to someone in front of him. He noticed that her expression didn’t seem right, so he stopped.
Anran greeted the child beside him. &Quot; Hello, Xiaobin. How have you been? ”
Xiao bin smiled shyly at her. He was no stranger to her. She was the one who accompanied him when he was discharged from the hospital last time, and he still remembered all of this.
Anran also made him smile. She reached out and touched his head, then raised her head and looked at the things in their shopping cart. She casually asked, ” “You’re here to buy vegetables too?” In her heart, she only felt that this father and son pair were a little strange. Sometimes, she felt that Zhou han was too cold to this child. For example, last time, he actually let him sit alone on the sofa at the banquet. He was taken to the hospital by her and su Yicheng for so long, but they didn’t realize that the child was missing. Also, last time at the hospital, he was irresponsible enough to leave the child alone in the hospital, and she didn’t come to see him for a few days. Even after the child recovered, he didn’t come to take him home. It made her feel that there was no other father in the world who was more irresponsible than him. But now, looking at them again, she seemed to feel that he was not as cold to the child as she had imagined. He would take him to the supermarket and buy the vegetables that the child liked. This kind of father did not seem to be someone who did not love his child.
Zhou han nodded and continued to push the cart forward. He said casually, ” it seems to be working hours now. &Quot; In other words, she was actually so free to go out to buy groceries during working hours.
“Oh, I quit.” An ran said indifferently. He reached out for a box of eggs from the shelf and placed it in the shopping cart.
Zhou han looked at her in surprise but didn’t ask further.
The two of them strolled around like this and bought the things they wanted to buy. When they pushed the cart to pay the bill, Chengxiang and Xiaoxiao happened to be in front of them. Seeing her walk over, Chengxiang saw that her expression was extremely bitter. He opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn’t say it several times. In the end, he said with a bitter smile, ” it’s not what you think. &Quot;
&Quot; I don’t need to think about it because I have eyes. I will see. Just please don’t ask me about Lin Li again in the future, because you will make me feel that you are hypocritical. &Quot; An ran was so cold that she didn’t give him any face.
On the side, Xiaoxiao was so angry that she wanted to avenge Chengxiang. She said to Anran, ” “Hey, what’s wrong with you, woman? do you have to speak like this? do you know how brother Xiang has been through this period of time? what right do you have to talk to him like this!”
An ran looked at her coldly and didn’t want her to say anything.
Xiaoxiao still wanted to say something, but Chengxiang chided her, ” Xiaoxiao, enough! &Quot;
Xiao-Xiao looked at him with a wronged expression. She pouted her lips and looked a little aggrieved.
In the end, even after they walked out of the supermarket, Anran was still a little angry. She really felt that Lin Li wasn’t worth it!
“I didn’t know you had such a fierce side.” Zhou han, who was beside her, said with a faint smile while carrying the shopping bags.
Anran glanced at him, and the anger in her heart slowly subsided. In fact, everyone had a temper, but everyone had a bottom line. As long as he didn’t cross her bottom line, everything was fine.
Anran turned her head and looked in front of her. “Do you still remember the pearl necklace you gave me?”
Zhou han looked at her in confusion and didn’t say anything.
Anran didn’t seem to care about his answer and continued, ” &Quot; I bought that necklace for my best friend’s wedding gift, and the groom is the man just now. The three of us were classmates and have known each other for almost ten years, but did you know that he ran away for the woman just now at the wedding? ”
Zhou han was a little dumbfounded. He recalled the man’s appearance just now and seemed to be a little surprised that he would actually do this.
Anran glanced at him and smiled faintly. She didn’t say anything more about this. She lifted the bag in her hand and said, ” &Quot; it seems that I always take advantage of you every time I see you. Thank you again for this time. &Quot;
Zhou han nodded his head lightly. &Quot; if this happens again, I don’t mind you paying. &Quot;
