The heavens were always fair. When they gave you something, they would also make you lose something.
No one was perfect, and things would not always go smoothly.
After work, Hua Kai wanted to tell his girlfriend that he had become the CEO's secretary.
This girl was petite and had delicate features. She was also a recent graduate. The two of them were in different companies and doing the same job.
"Hua Kai, let's break up." The bright sunlight shone on Jian Xinying's face. Her voice was so light, but it pierced deep into Hua Kai's heart like a pendant.
"Xinying, why so sudden? Aren't we very much in love?" Hua Kai's excitement was doused by her words, and the smile on his face froze like cement.
"Yes, there's nothing wrong with our love. When we were in university, we once fantasized about the future, but now, reality doesn't allow us to fantasize so romantically.”A touch of sadness appeared on Jian Xinying's porcelain face.
They had been together for four years in university. Hua Kai seemed to be used to having Jian Xinying by his side and taking care of him. However, she had broken up with him when they had just started working.
"Xinying, trust me. I will give you a home.”Hua Kai frowned, his eyes filled with grief.
Jian Xinying shook her head and looked at him. The pain in his eyes fell into her eyes. Jian Xinying wasn't a cold-hearted person, but Hua Kai couldn't give her the future she wanted.
"When can I afford a house in Feng City? When can I afford a car?”Jian Xinying's voice was filled with pain." We are no longer college students. I have to face reality when I enter society. Hua Kai, you can't give me the life I want.”
Hua Kai looked at her and was at a loss for words. Jian Xinying was telling the truth. He had no choice but to lower his head and no longer dared to look at Jian Xinying's disappointed face.
Jian Xinying was right. He was just an ordinary employee. With his meager salary, how long would it take for him to buy a house and a car of his own in Feng City, where prices were soaring?
In such a city, it was difficult to support his mother and himself, let alone give his beloved a home.
A girl couldn't wait for him for five years, let alone ten years.
He couldn't blame Jian Xinying for being cruel.
"Let's not meet again in the future.”Jian Xinying left the last sentence and turned to leave.
Hua Kai looked at her leaving back and wanted to catch her, but he didn't have the courage to chase after her. The falling petals fluttered in the sky and gently brushed her slightly curly hair. Jian Xinying's back gradually faded in the wind and disappeared around the corner...
Jian Xinying's name was stuck in his throat. After she disappeared, he finally called out, but she couldn't hear him.
The person she had been in love with for four years had disappeared in front of her eyes just like that.
In the face of the times, love was very small.
Hua Kai looked up at the sky. His eyes were sore as if raindrops were falling from the sky.
The falling petals landed on Hua Kai's face, but Hua Kai was immersed in his heart-wrenching pain for a long time under the falling petals.
"Hua Kai, don't blame Xinying. She must have a reason for doing this. I believe that a good man like you will meet someone who loves you.”After Jian Xinying left, a woman who looked similar to Jian Xinying came from behind Hua Kai. She was more mature than Jian Xinying. She was Jian Xinying's sister, Jian Yuying.
"Big sister, I won't blame Xinying. I wish her well.”The pain in Hua Kai's eyes gradually faded away, but the worry in his heart became even stronger.
He thought that he would be able to form a happy family with Jian Xinying after graduating from university. However, he seemed to be too naive. When Jian Xinying turned around and left, Hua Kai's heart seemed to have been ripped out.
It was painful.
"Big sister, I still have work to do. I'll leave first.”Hua Kai turned around and walked in the opposite direction of Jian Yuying.
Jian Yuying was the only one left standing on the tree-lined road, looking up at the sky. Her indifferent face did not have the gentleness of late spring.
Back then, after graduating from university, she thought that she would marry the man she loved and have a happy marriage. However, in the end, she realized that she was only married to money.
Jian Xinying was a silly girl. She despised Hua Kai for having no money, no car, and no house. Hua Kai couldn't give her the future she wanted. She had never thought that she would end up like her sister.
Not to marry happiness, but to marry money.
The secular world was like this.
Hua Kai returned to the company in a daze. He deeply sank his love for Jian Xinying and hid his longing for her.
The mirror in the bathroom reflected Hua Kai's lonely face. He scooped up some water and washed his face, washing away the tears at the corner of his eyes. He didn't want his mother to see him like this.
He still had relatives in this city. He could not let his relatives feel sad for him.
Hua Kai stood outside the CEO's office with the performance report in his hand. He just wanted to calm down.
The joy of becoming the CEO's secretary was shattered by the news of their breakup.
Pushing the door open and entering, everything was done so cleanly.
"President, this is this month's monthly report. Please take a look.”
"There's no need to look." Lin Anyi leaned against the huge rotating chair and glanced at Hua Kai." What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"”
"I'm not feeling unwell." Hua Kai quickly denied it and hid his emotions.
In the eyes of the boss, an employee who went to work with emotions would never be a good employee, let alone be trusted and reused by the boss.
"Hua Kai, what I need is a secretary who is full of energy and has 80% enthusiasm for work, not an employee who shows all his emotions on his face. Such an employee will affect my mood at work.”Lin Anyi looked at him in disappointment.
Even though he tried his best to hide it, he was still discovered by the boss.
She looked beautiful when she smiled, but when she was serious, it was scary.
This was the aura of a boss.
Hua Kai's heart was trembling. Would he be expelled from the office by his boss?
"You don't look too good. Go out and rest in the lounge.”Lin Anyi lowered his eyes and picked up a stack of documents. At the end of the document, he signed his name fluently.
She was already used to this kind of work every day.
"Boss, have you ever loved someone so much that your heart was torn apart and your heart ached? You held onto hope, but you were greatly disappointed and even despaired.”
Hua Kai said this out of the blue. After saying it, he realized that he was talking nonsense in front of his boss because of his confusion. The words that he said were like water that had been poured out and could not be taken back.
However, his feet were so heavy that he could not move.
Lin Anyi paused for a moment and stared at her own handwriting. Hua Kai's words brushed past her ears, but they fell into her heart.
It seemed like she had yet to experience what this so-called heart-wrenching pain felt like. It was just that sometimes, when she thought about not being able to be with Jiang Yuchen, her heart would ache.
However, that pain would soon disappear.
"Hua Kai, you're still young. When you reach my age, you won't easily say things like love to the point of heartbreak and despair. After you enter the workplace for five or even ten years, you'll realize how ridiculous it is for you to say such things now.”
Lin Anyi raised her eyes. Her deep eyes were like the bright stars in the night sky, and also like the most crystalline drop of autumn water that gathered in her eyes.
Hua Kai's heart trembled slightly, and a chill rose in his eyes." President, I'm sorry. I'll be more mature in the future."”
"The more a person grows up, the more they have to learn to put family first, friendship second, and love in an unreachable position. The more you cared about something, the more it would torture you.”Lin Anyi clasped his hands together. He looked less serious and more lecturing.
"I'm sorry, President." Hua Kai felt a little uneasy. Facing the serious Lin Anyi, his previous relaxed attitude was completely gone.
"You are too emotional. This is not a bad thing, but it will affect your footsteps.”Lin Anyi's eyes became gentler, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly, soothing the uneasiness in Hua Kai's heart.
"In life, some people come and go, some people go and return, some people are close at hand, some people are far away, some people pass by, and some people walk together. Perhaps they would meet at the end of two roads, travel together for a while, and then say goodbye at the next fork.”Lin Anyi seemed to be talking to himself. He was talking to Hua Kai and himself.
Hua Kai had just experienced the pain of parting with his loved ones earlier than her. When he really parted with Jiang Yuchen, he wouldn't have said these words so easily.
After Lin Anyi's explanation, Hua Kai finally revealed a smile that seemed a little forced after the heavy topic." Thank you, President. You said it very well.”
"Hua Kai, work hard by my side. I won't mistreat you.”Lin Anyi's expression was calm, but there was a different kind of brilliance in his eyes.
Hua Kai nodded in confusion. He didn't know if Lin Anyi was implying something, but he knew that he had to work hard from now on. He had to work hard to become the kind of person he wanted to be.
If you don't work hard, no one will ever treat you fairly. Only when you work hard, have resources, and have the right to speak can you fight for a fair opportunity for yourself.
Hua Kai walked out of Lin Anyi's office. Lin Anyi was the only one left in the huge office. The pen in his hand stopped on the document. Lin Anyi was stunned for a moment, then he signed his name on the document.
The wind seemed to have picked up outside the window. Lin Anyi picked up the teacup and wanted to drink some water to moisten his dry throat. When he brought it to his mouth, he realized that there was no water left.
He found such a young secretary who didn't know how to read people's expressions. Did he have to clean up his mess?
"President, I'll get you a glass of water." It wasn't that Hua Kai didn't know how to read people's expressions.
"Later, go to Fu Shangze's company and bring back the sample I saw last time.”
Lin Anyi had forgotten to bring the sample back the last time he came.
"Yes."
Was he going to the place with his sad memories again?
What if he met Jian Xinying?
