”That fifty million was my offer. I will make up for it within a month.” With that, Chu Jiang hung up the phone without caring about the scolding, the 50 million was misappropriated for the company.
Although he was the president of the Han Group, his authority had always been in his father's hands. He was the leader of the group.
”Come in.”
”Alright, Chu Ju.” With that, the secretary left the office in a hurry.
Chu Jiang leaned his body against the sofa, and rubbed his forehead with his hands. His fatigued look made one's heart ache, his skinny and weak body looked just like a young man. His skin was white, clear, and his thin lips were pursed, with a high nose bridge, making him look like a young man meticulously carved by a sculptor.
The languid posture of leaning against the sofa was somewhat fascinating. Slowly, a light sound of breathing could be heard, and he actually fell asleep.
Wen Xin placed the folder in her hands inside her bag and recalled Chu Jiang's words.
”Wen Xin, what are you thinking about?” Luo Xiao suddenly appeared beside her and shouted.
”Nothing?” Wen Xin came back to reality and laughed awkwardly.
”It's nothing, you've been in such a state of unease ever since you left Chu Ju's office, what happened?” Luo Xiao's face was filled with worry.
”Really, it's nothing. I just like to be in a daze. This way, I can calm my mind and think of nothing else. It's very preventive.” Wen Xin explained with a smile.
”Is that really the case?” Luo Xiao's face was full of doubt.
”Really, everyone's method of relieving pressure is different. I like to be in a daze to relieve the pressure.”
”Are you under a lot of pressure?”
”Everyone has pressure, big or small. This pressure can also become motivation. Whose life is perfect!” Wen Xin sighed and said.
”That's right. It's because of the pressure that they are motivated, especially in the entertainment industry. Recently, a talent show has been very popular. Many young singers have come out, and their popularity is abnormally high.” Luo Xiao imitated Wen Xin and sighed.
”No matter what, you have to persevere. Didn't you say that this was your dream?”
”Aren't you, too?”
”Actually, I don't have any dreams when it comes to my career. If I had chosen a job, I would have liked to be a free and easy painter or writer. That way, I could have escaped the mundane world and painted a world of my own, but unfortunately, I don't have that talent.” As he said that, Wen Xin looked into the distance, his eyes filled with confusion.
”As long as we are human, we can't leave this world. This society has long polluted us. Everyone is real, because we are living in an incredibly realistic society.”
”That's right!” Luo Xiao, there might come a day where I cannot accompany you by your side to realize your dream, but I will always watch as you slowly climb to the summit. ” Wen Xin said softly.
”You don't want to quit, do you? ”Why do I feel that your tone of voice today is weird, as if you've aged a decade all of a sudden?”
”Am I that old?”
