C825 A Surge of Jealousy
C825 A Surge of Jealousy
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. The more he thought about it, the more jealousy he felt in his heart.
My face couldn't help but change.
Qiu Tong looked at me and seemed to notice my strange expression. She smiled. "It's summer. It's nothing, just good morning."
"Aren't you happy to have such a big boss greeting you in the morning?" I said coldly.
Qiu Tong was slightly stunned. "No, I'm just a polite reply."
"Politeness? Politeness my ass!" Seeing your happy and proud look, and that sweet smile of yours! " I felt more and more stifled.
"Happy? Pride? I didn't. I can't say no to a polite call. Besides, we're all friends. " Qiu Tong looked at me.
"Friend, friend my ass!" I said stiffly.
"Don't talk about others like that. Aren't we all friends?" Qiu Tong said.
"Hmph."
Qiu Tong's expression was a little unnatural as she looked at me. "What are you thinking about again?"
"Don't ask me. Ask yourself first. Stop pretending to be stupid!" After saying that, I turned around and left.
When I got back to the office, I sat at my desk and sulked for a while.
After a long while, I felt that I shouldn't have said those harsh words to Qiu Tong, and shouldn't have given her face. She is innocent, and furthermore, what right do I have to be angry now? What was my relationship with her? Sooner or later, she will marry Lee Shun, so I have to face Hai Zhu.
Thinking about this, I reached for my internal phone and called Qiu Tong.
"Hello — —" Qiu Tong's voice came over the phone.
"It's me!" "No," I said.
"Yes."
"Earlier, maybe I shouldn't have angered you. I apologize!" "No," I said.
Qiu Tong went silent on the phone for a while and then said, "I'm not angry with you. After you left, I thought for a moment. Perhaps, I know why you're unhappy. "
I exhaled heavily.
"Alright, stop thinking so much. "If you think too much, you'll be very tired." Qiu Tong said softly.
"Yes."
"Still angry?"
"No!"
"Then let me hear you laugh!"
I tried to laugh.
"Hur hur, I heard you were reluctant." Qiu Tong laughed, then said, "Hey — sometimes it feels like you're just a kid, a big kid."
"I am a child, and you are a child." "No," I said.
"Hehe, in front of the elders, we are obviously children."
"You are also a child in front of me!" "No," I said.
"Nonsense." Qiu Tong rebuked.
"Do I call you every day of summer to say good morning?" I said again.
After a moment of silence, Qiu Tong whispered, "Yes."
"In addition to good morning, do you also wish me good afternoon and good night every day?" I said again.
"Not every day, but often." Qiu Tong whispered.
"Do I often invite you out for a meal and tea alone?" I said again.
"Yes, but I usually refuse." Qiu Tong said hurriedly.
"This summer, I have been so attentive to you. "Did you not sense anything?" "No," I said.
Qiu Tong was silent for a long time before she said, "I don't want to think too much into it. I only think of Summer as a friend, the same friend as Haifeng. Summer is my friend, as well as your friend and everyone's friend. No matter what anyone does to me, my heart will never … again... I have tomorrow and fate that I have already arranged. No matter who it is, it cannot and will not change my fate.
So, I don't want to think too much about these things, and I hope you don't think too much about it either. I won't betray my soul beyond the unchangeable reality. Hope, we are all good, a good life, a good work, hope, we have taken every step of their own, to themselves, to others, to their own conscience, others to you good. I think I should know what I have to do and what I have to do, and you will know it too. "
Qiu Tong's words were intermittent and the meaning wasn't very clear, but I seemed to understand the meaning behind them.
"Actually, I should not have interfered in your private affairs. I do not have the qualifications. I really shouldn't ask about that. " "No," I said.
Qiu Tong did not say anything. After a long while, she sighed and hung up the phone.
I held the phone for a long time.
In the afternoon, I called Kong Kun from the four seas tourism.
"Hello, mysterious friend." Kong Kun said enthusiastically.
"Hello, Manager Kong." I said casually.
"Eh, how did you know my surname was Kong?" Kong Kun's voice was slightly surprised.
It was only then that I realized I accidentally said something wrong. When I contacted Kong Kun before, I never asked her her name. It was only because Lee Shun and I went on a trip to Four Seas that I knew her name was Kong Kun.
"This... Is it hard to know your surname, Kong? "Not only do I know your surname is Kong, I also know that your name is Kong Kun!" "No," I said.
"Oh, hehe, you must have heard it from Hai Er's friends, didn't you?" Kong Kun smiled and said, "Yes, it is indeed not difficult. We do business. The more we know, the better."
"How's your business with Hai Er recently?" "No," I said.
"Not bad. Everything is normal. Business is constant." Kong Kun said, "That's right, I've always called the bank account that you specified every time with the commission. There hasn't been a loss at all."
"The reason why I called you today is to talk about the commission for my business!" "No," I said.
"Oh, what?" There was a hint of nervousness in Kong Kun's voice, as if she was worried that I was going to make an additional request.
"From today onwards, I don't need any commission." "No," I said.
"Ah —" Kong Kun's voice was again surprised. "My mysterious friend, what did you say?"
"From today onwards, you and Hai Er don't have to pay any money for your business. Don't you understand?" I repeated it.
"I understand, I understand." Kong Kun's voice was still a little surprised. "But, I don't understand why. Why don't you just stop talking about it all of a sudden. These commission points are yours to pay for. Why not suddenly? Are you saying that you think we're giving too little and want to tell Hai Er that she doesn't want to do business with us? "
Kong Kun's voice suddenly became nervous again.
"Your business with Hai Er won't be affected by my lack of promotion. You're overthinking it." I said, "I have my own reasons for not making money. You don't have to worry about that, you don't have to ask about it. How was your business with Hai Er before? What will happen in the future. It won't have any effect."
"Oh." Kong Kun's voice became relaxed, then she seemed to become happy and said, "Hey, mysterious friend, you are really a good person. You have helped us do so much business, yet even now you still don't know who you are. I only know that this phone call is from Hsinghai. Ah, you just came so mysteriously and then disappeared so mysteriously. I really hope to see you face to face and thank you well. "
Kong Kun's voice seemed to carry a sense of loss and regret.
I said, "Don't thank me. It's just a business deal between us. I'll introduce you to the business. You can pay me commission. This is a business deal, so there's no need for you to see me."
"Ah — yes, mysterious friend, tell you something." Kong Kun said.
"What is it?" "No," I said.
"A few days ago, during the New Year's Day holiday, two clients came to our company. They came to look for me and said that they were clients, but they didn't talk about business and left. They never came back, they said that they weren't clients, and then they asked if I, Hsinghai, had any business connections.
I told them that I don't have any business with Hsinghai, but a mysterious friend of mine introduced me to the business of Qingdao Hai Er, and one of them seemed to be extremely interested in it. He exchanged a few more words with me, then suddenly stood up and left, causing me to feel baffled.
"Why are you telling me this? Does this have anything to do with me? " "No," I said.
"It shouldn't have anything to do with you. But, I was thinking, maybe it has something to do with you. So, I told you, what if it has something to do with you? You're mentally prepared." Kong Kun said.
"This has nothing to do with me, but I still have to thank you!" "No," I said.
"That's good!"
"Anything else?" "No," I said.
"Will you call again? "Will you still contact me in the future?" Kong Kun said, her voice sounding reluctant and a little disappointed.
"Do you think it's necessary to contact them? If I contact you, it might not be a good thing for you. "Alright, goodbye then. Manager Kong, there are always mountains and rivers here. I wish you happiness!"
"Goodbye, mysterious friend."
I hung up the phone and let out a long breath. I was done with what Qiu Tong had told me.
Qiu Tong didn't let me continue asking for business commission. I couldn't help but feel a little regretful, how could there be enmity with money when it came to doing business, and these rewards weren't just income. They were all fair and square, so why wouldn't Qiu Tong want them?
Perhaps Qiu Tong really wasn't a 100% business person, but she was still an idealistic and emotional person.
Perhaps, Qiu Tong didn't want to use the commission to earn her reputation.
Perhaps, Qiu Tong felt that if her classmates found out that she had collected so much business, it wouldn't be good.
Perhaps, she felt that she had made so much of her matter into an uneasy feeling.
Perhaps …
Maybe a lot, maybe a lot. Maybe, maybe not.
Sometimes, I am very clear about Qiu Tong's thoughts. Sometimes, I can't figure it out.
The next day, just after work, he heard a bad news: the general manager of the group's industrial company, having treated his customers to a car accident on his way home after drinking too much alcohol, had crashed head-on into an engineering car carrying construction waste. The car had been destroyed.
When I heard the news from the clouds, I was shocked.
Although there are car accidents every day in the world, but this car accident happened at my side, and the person who passed away is my colleague.
I couldn't help but feel a little sad and a little regretful. The general manager of the industrial company and I usually have a good relationship, only 35 years old, very straightforward work, such an early death, it is really sad.
I couldn't help but feel a bit at a loss. The heavens could never predict the future, and people could always be blessed with misfortune. After he left, only his parents and widowed mother were left. What kind of cruel thing was this? He had lost both his son and his father in old age.
Two days later, a memorial service was held. At the memorial service, Sun Dongkai personally delivered the eulogy.
