Chapter 186: Chapter 186 Not Friend Arc— Three Million
Mo Yizhi smiled and said: “With your ability and potential, being a small office worker is indeed a little overkill. Now that you are still young, you can accumulate more work experience and then set up a company by yourself. Perhaps that is a more suitable path for you. I will personally arrange the next company for you to work in. As for the starting funds… Shan’er.”
Long Shan immediately fetched a filled check from the desk and placed it in front of me. Counting the circles on it, my eyeballs almost fell on the table, it turned out to be. . . Three million!
How much is three million? Probably it was the wealth that I could never accumulate in my life, but at this moment, Mo Yizhi took the initiative to give it to me free of charge!
What was this? A pie in the sky? I was surprised, but it wasn’t a pleasant surprise. On the contrary, my facial muscles were stiffening, “I didn’t do anything, so I won’t accept this money.”
Long Shan was surprised, “Why? Are you reluctant to resign, or do you think the money is not enough? If the money is not enough, we can discuss it again. . .”
“Shan’er!” Mo Yizhi looked at me, whose complexion became more and more livid, and immediately stopped Long Shan, “What you said may be insulting to the young man.”
Not maybe, but I really felt that they were insulting me!
Mo Yizhi sighed, but did not take the check back, “Little Chu, can you tell me the reason? Why would you refuse to accept the money? ”
“Chairman Mo, it seems that you also should give me a reason, right?” I asked back: “Why should I accept this money?”
Long Shan scolded: “Chu Nan, pay attention to your tone, do you know who you are talking to?”
I looked at Long Shan with cold eyes. A flash of panic flashed across her face. Suddenly I felt that at this moment, she was not qualified to talk to me. Three million? They were wrong, my soul may not be priceless, but it was definitely not cheap! Its price was equal to life!
My respect for Mo Yizhi had been reduced to a minimum. I only maintained the most basic politeness. I coldly smiled and said: “If you want to fire me, you don’t seem to lack a reason, chairman. You just need to say a word. Before entering this office, I have already prepared to pack my things right away, but now it doesn’t seem to be as simple as I thought.”
Mo Yizhi stared at me blankly for a moment and suddenly laughed, “Interesting. Young man, you are really interesting, I finally understand another reason why Fei’er is not willing to lose you, this friend.”
Did not want to lose me, this friend? Another reason? I couldn’t understand what Mo Yizhi was talking about.
“I’m sorry, because I didn’t clarify, so you may feel insulted. . .” Mo Yizhi shook his head with a wry smile, “Shan’er, can you light me a cigarette?”
“Chairman, your health. . .”
“It’s okay, just one,” Mo Yizhi smiled at Long Shan, and then said to me who was extremely confused: “Forgive me, I hope you leave Fei’er.”
Leaving Mo Fei? I couldn’t help shaking.
In fact, I also had this intention because I knew I needed to escape from Mo Fei. As the relationship between us became more and more ambiguous, if I let it keep progressing, I knew very well that sooner or later, the feelings that I had for her would be rekindled again.
At least I was not confident about myself. If that really happened, it would only hurt all of us. However, when these words came out of Mo Yizhi’s mouth, I was inexplicably upset.
“Why?” I needed a reason. Was it just because I was Mo Fei’s friend? If that was really the reason then I could only think that Mo Yizhi wanted to deprive Mo Fei’s happiness. Why did he want to prevent Mo Fei from having friends? Did he like to see her being lonely?
Although it was not my place to be angry, I was still angry.
“I can understand your anger. In order to help Fei’er, you don’t even care about your personal future. I can see that you truly care about her and you truly regard her as a friend, but. . .” Mo Yizhi sighed with emotion while holding a cigarette using his two skinny fingers. “But does Fei’er really treat you as her friend?”
I was stunned, and then smiled: “You want to say she didn’t treat me as a friend? Chairman, if you feel that I am not qualified to be Fei Fei’s friend, you can tell me directly. Although my status is inferior, my personality is not. I made friends with Fei Fei because of who she is, not because of your money!”
The previous recognition and high evaluation of me was nothing but flattery or comfort. In any case, it was just Mo Yizhi’s communication method to persuade me to leave Fengchang and Mo Fei. I actually felt that he was mocking me and despising me!
My attitude could be said to be quite rude, but Mo Yizhi was not angry. On the contrary, the look of appreciation in his eyes became more obvious, but he also had a sympathetic look on his face. He then smiled bitterly: “Personality is not inferior. Hehe, Little Chu, this is a good point, I start to like you a little bit. But the more so, the more I will persuade you to leave Fengchang.”
“I can go, but I need a reason!” He was still the chairman of Fengchang after all. Fengchang was like his home. If he really wanted to kick me out, there was no way I would be able to stay. “If I need to leave, I will leave without taking anything! Offer me money? Are you trying to insult me, or are you trying to insult Fei Fei? ”
“I didn’t mean to insult anyone. . . Cough, cough. . .” Maybe Mo Yizhi was emotionally agitated, he choked on the smoke and began to cough. Long Shan hurried to stroke his back. The nervous look of her made me wonder if those two had some kind of secret relationship. Long Shan was in her early forties. But Mo Yizhi still called her ‘Shan’er’ affectionately, the attitude he had toward her was extremely ambiguous.
“Whether it was me or Feri’er, all of us are very selfish,” Mo Yizhi looked at the check in front of me, with a faint of apologetic and helpless look, “I know this is demeaning, but it’s the only way to compensate you. . .”
“Compensate me?”
“Little Chu, let me ask you a question, I hope you will answer me honestly,” Mo Yizhi snuffed out the cigarette that he had only taken two puffs and asked me seriously: “Investing in Heng Xiang, do you really think there is no risk?”
I was taken aback and replied: “No. Any investment is accompanied by risks, especially this kind of investment.”
“Okay, then. . .” Mo Yizhi asked again: “If, if Fei’er has already solved her mother’s debt, and there was no urgent need for money, would you still risk your own future and help her like this?”
“Of course not, who would easily risk their own future like. . . this. . .” My heart trembled suddenly, “Chairman, why do you ask me this?”
Mo Yizhi shook his head and smiled very bitterly. Long Shan sighed, as if she had seen through the absurd guess in my heart, and said: “Just like you think, a month ago, Chairman had already helped Fei’er to pay off the debt, but Fei’er. . . But she didn’t tell you.”
Long Shan’s words were like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and it struck my head ruthlessly.
I was stunned for a while before I was able to get back to my senses. Although I wanted to calm down, I found that I seemed to be on the verge of losing control of my own emotions. I tried to suppress it, but the voice inside me was still like a raging roar, “You mean, Fei Fei has solved the money problem long ago, but she kept it from me? Impossible, hehe, impossible. Why? She has no reason to do this, right?”
I didn’t believe it, but when I recalled Mo Fei’s performance yesterday, I believed in Long Shan’s nonsense. Indeed, when I went to the bank to withdraw cash yesterday, Mo Fei did not show relief or joy at all. Instead, she seemed to be trying to avoid it. . .
“Fei’er is an unfortunate girl. Fate is always making fun of her. Since you are her friend, I think, you understand these things, right?” Mo Yizhi leaned weakly on the back of the mahogany sofa, and his eyes filled with gleaming sorrow at the moment, “My brother was a good man, but it’s a pity that he married a heartless woman. Half of his life was ruined by the marriage. Fei’er was his everything. I thought he could finally start a new life after the divorce, but God was not fair to him. He let a drunkard took away his life. That day just happened to be Fei’er’s birthday. . . First, it was a broken family and then her father died. All the misfortunes fell on Fei’er, who was only 18 years old at the time. She couldn’t bear such a blow, so she gradually became depressed. . .”
