Zhang Yiwen walked to the bedroom and looked at Song Ziwei who was lying on the bed. Speaking of which, it was funny. All these years, she had never truly trusted anyone. Even Shen Zhien, who had always accommodated her, had always kept some reservations and put on a pitiful look when necessary. However, the man on the bed had made her waver a little. She had believed that he was so devoted to her. For a moment, she had naively thought that he would marry her into the Song family regardless of everything.
As expected, men were unreliable. After using them, they should be thrown away. This was a rule that she had set long ago. But now that Song Ziwei could be used again, why not? She smiled and reached out her hand to Song Ziwei's frowning face.
"Buzz ~, buzz ~" Her phone suddenly vibrated. Zhang Yiwen quickly retracted her hand and picked it up, afraid that she would wake Song Ziwei up. Although she had mixed sleeping pills into his food, that was last night.
"What's wrong?" She picked up the phone and glanced at Song Ziwei in the bedroom.
"The Smiths went bankrupt." The man on the phone said calmly as if he was reporting the news, but there was still a hint of cruel joy in his tone.
"I understand." Zhang Yiwen said calmly, but she couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that she didn't trust the wrong person. The Su family was really the first scapegoat to fall. "Calm down and keep an eye on Song Ziwei. Also, if anything really happens, don't rat me out. Then I still have a chance to pull you ashore.”the man said coldly. After Zhang Yiwen replied unhappily, he immediately hung up the phone.
What a good plan to protect himself. She listened to the toot sound coming from the phone and sneered. Her eyes gradually sharpened.
If something really happened and she foolishly saved him, would he really turn around and pull her ashore? She shook her head and laughed at herself for being so hesitant to believe this old fox. She knew very well that their relationship was not even a win-win cooperation. At most, they were using each other secretly. Both of them were in the dark, so they would not betray each other, just like the men she used before. How could there be trust and help in such a relationship?
After thinking it through, she walked into the room and prepared to wake Song Ziwei up.
His well-defined handsome face gradually became clearer in front of her. This was the face of the heir of the Song family. As she thought about it, she sat by the bed. Unfortunately, everything was about to end. Now, this face was about to be worthless. As she thought about it, the corners of her lips curled up as she looked at him with a faint smile.
Since no one would die for her, she had to be even more careful and not make any mistakes.
……
At this moment, Shen Zhien and Su Yanle were in Song Empire's company. They had just walked into the elevator from the magnificent first-floor lobby.
The Song Empire used to be very wealthy. Even the elevator was designed quite luxuriously. There was even an exquisite crystal lamp hanging inside. At this moment, it was emitting a pale orange light that gently enveloped the two of them who were in a hurry. The huge elevator, which used to be full of people, carried the two of them without stopping. It went straight to the eighth floor where the general manager's office was located.
Su Yanle walked down the elevator and asked Shen Zhien to wait for her outside. Then, she walked towards the large office at the innermost part. She knew that Song Ziwei was definitely not in the company. She was looking for Yang Lei, who was sitting in the general manager's office.
"Uncle." Su Yanle didn't bother knocking on the door. She pushed the half-closed door open and walked in. Sure enough, Yang Lei was sitting behind a large office desk, his hands patting his head, looking a little anxious. After Song Ziwei was removed from his post, the position of general manager was vacated. Although everyone coveted the position, they knew that the decision was made by the chairman, so they did not dare to show their ambitions. Yang Jing couldn't trust the ambitious executives of the company, so she could only put Yang Lei, who was in charge of the sales department, in this empty seat. She was relieved.
Yang Lei had just become the general manager when he encountered unprecedented trouble. After the new project went wrong, all kinds of things came one after another. He had not had a decent rest for a few days. Just as she was feeling frustrated by the non-stop calls, she saw Su Yanle suddenly push open the door and enter.
He was stunned at first, then quickly stood up and squeezed out an embarrassed smile, looking at her with bloodshot eyes.
"Yan Le, I've already heard about what happened to your family's company. We've let your family down.”As he spoke, he closed his eyes in pain. After a while, he continued to speak. "I really want to help you, but I really have no choice. For that money, I even put down my face and begged all the companies I worked with in the past, but none of them were willing to help.”He cursed in a low voice, as if he was venting the frustration that he had accumulated for a long time.
"I don't blame you, Uncle." Su Yanle sighed and said softly. "I also know that it's not your fault. It's Auntie Yang who left me in the lurch. But my father's years of hard work are gone just like that.”As she spoke, her originally calm tone began to fluctuate. In the end, she could not help but cry. She remembered her father's depressed face before he fell ill, just like Yang Lei's.
Yang Lei saw that she had suddenly lost control of her emotions and hurriedly walked out from behind the table. He was flustered and did not know what to do. In the end, he gently placed his hand on her shoulder and patted her back. He didn't know that this action reminded Su Yanle of her father who was still in surgery. Not only did it not stop her crying, but it also made things worse.
"I came here to ask you if you've seen Song Ziwei recently.”She took a deep breath and asked as calmly as possible.
Yang Lei shook his head and sighed. "This little brat actually left the company at the critical moment and disappeared. I tried to look for him some time ago, but he seemed to have disappeared.”His face was filled with pain and resentment, probably due to the fatigue and frustration that had accumulated over the past few days.
Su Yanle nodded and didn't say anything else. She was actually glad that she didn't tell Yang Lei about Su Liang's heart attack. She was exceptionally calm and clear-headed. She didn't even feel a hint of disappointment. It was probably because she had expected this outcome before she came.
"Uncle, I'll be leaving first." After she finished speaking, she turned around and wanted to leave as soon as possible. After all, there were so many things waiting for her today. Yang Lei heard her words and quickly stepped forward. Before he could say anything, Su Yanle's phone rang and she stopped him.
"Ziwei! Where are you!" When Yang Lei saw her eyes shining as she looked at the phone screen, he knew who was calling. Now that he heard that she had indeed handed over the name, he stood quietly behind her, as if he did not show any surprise at Song Ziwei's sudden appearance.
"Yan Le, don't speak first. I have something to tell you.”On the other end of the phone, Song Ziwei looked weak. Su Yanle quickly quieted down and waited for him to continue.
"You're probably looking for me now. If you're here, then don't look for me. I'm with Zhang Yiwen and will be with her in the future, so don't look for me.”He spoke in a calm tone, and no one could tell what he was feeling when he said this.
Su Yanle stood rooted to the ground, as if someone had stolen her soul.
"Then I'll hang up first." After Song Ziwei finished speaking and saw that she did not say anything else, he was about to hang up the phone. His voice was filled with incongruity and laziness.
Su Yanle finally reacted and stopped him.
"Wait!" She shouted," Song Ziwei, no matter what, no matter what you want to say, no matter what the outcome is. You should at least tell me face to face.”If she didn't see Song Ziwei's face, she would never believe what he said.
On the other side, Song Ziwei suddenly fell silent. His surroundings seemed to be incomparably empty, without a trace of sound. If it wasn't for the fact that he could hear his incomparably deep breathing, Su Yanle would even think that he had hung up long ago.
"Mhm, alright." After a long silence, he replied helplessly. "Wait for me in the downtown area at the entrance of the mall.”He said a seemingly unrelated location, as if he was just casually planning to end it. After saying that, he hurriedly hung up the phone.
Su Yanle only opened his eyes wide after the toot stopped automatically. He shook his head in disbelief. Yang Lei stood at the back and said something briefly, but she didn't listen at all.
She walked out of the office in a daze. She did not even bid farewell to Yang Lei behind her. This time, Yang Lei didn't stop her. He quietly watched her walk out. Even when her messy footsteps gradually faded away, he still stood in his original position. His face was calm and he stood there for a long time.#
