C78 The Phone You Have Dialed Has Been Turned off
"Your grandfather passed away, and so did my grandmother. The two old men are no longer alive, so why talk about their last wishes? No one has the ability to fulfill their last wishes, so let it be. " The bank card returned to Su Huai's hand once again, and Lin Jia swiftly turned her head in another direction.
Knowing that she was poor, she told her that there was a huge sum of money in the card and even hinted that she was the heir. As long as she nodded, she could get it at any time.
What kind of test was this!
She was not a saint, and treated money as dirt. In front of such a huge body, she can guarantee that her heart will be as calm as still water without any greed. Please, she is also rejecting it with great difficulty, okay? Persisting over and over again, she would never accept the card. What should she do then?
"Lin Jia. . . " Su Huai was helpless as he watched her busily pack her things and prepare to return.
"If we can't get on that bus at 1: 30 PM, we won't be able to catch up to the last flight at night. We can't delay any longer. There's still important work at the company that needs me to go back and deal with. "
Lin Jia looked longingly at her grandmother's tombstone before she left. She silently promised in her heart that she would come back to see her when she had time.
On the way down the mountain, Lin Jia who'd removed most of the psychological burden had light footsteps. Su Huai followed behind her, and his handsome face was filled with helplessness. He still tried to make Lin Jia accept it, but as long as he brought up this topic, Lin Jia's ears would automatically filter out and she would absolutely not interfere. Su Huai was at his wit's end for a few times, and he stared at Lin Jia's back as he shook his head.
But for some reason, the smile on the corners of his mouth never stopped when he saw Lin Jia's joyful appearance.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the bus stopped at a parking spot near the airport. Lin Jia stretched out her arm tiredly, "Fortunately, I made it. "
"With me accompanying you, of course it's going smoothly. " Su Huai raised his hand and pressed down on her head with a tsundere expression.
Lin Jia unceremoniously raised her hand and slapped him away. "I hope the plane leaves on time and lands at 9: 30. I can still go to the company to hold a meeting around 11: 00. "
11: 00 PM was, of course, 11: 00 PM.
Su Huai found it inconceivable when he heard this. "Do you want to work so hard?"
"Go all out and fight for a good life. " Lin Jia replied like this.
He smiled meaningfully.
That smile was somewhat dazzling.
Lin Jia was instantly dissatisfied. "What? In your eyes, my dream is too unscrupulous, making you feel vulgar?"
At this moment, she thought of the beautiful Maserati that Su Huai had suddenly driven out. Moreover, there were various rumors about Su Huai's family background, background, connections, and so on and so forth - This man before her. Actually, she was still a stranger. She only knew that her name was Su Huai. Besides this, everything else about him. . . It was a mystery, and he would never take the initiative to bring up topics related to himself. As for her, she never thought of asking before. . . Now she wanted to ask, but she did not know where to start.
"No!" Su Huai smiled for a long time before he replied, "I was just thinking, when you refuse to accept that inheritance time and time again, would you also feel an incomparably painful feeling in the depths of your heart?"
Lin Jia let out a long and lonely sigh. "Of course it's painful, but it'll pass if you endure it when it hurts. If you really take that money, you'll definitely be scolded by her when you dream of Granny at night. She might even be punished to lock me up in a small black room. I'm already so old. I've been doing pretty well in the company, and I've been leading a group of people and making a name for myself. Do I not care about my reputation if I go and get looked down upon by my family's elders just for some money?"
The corners of Su Huai's mouth twitched a few times when he heard these words.
In the end, he couldn't resist extending his hand and pinching her cheek. "Girl, don't be too stubborn. "
"Of course not. " Lin Jia corrected angrily, "You're speaking the truth. How can you be stubborn? Su Huai, you're also very strange. I don't want this sum of money, so the money naturally belongs to you. Could it be that you're still complaining about having money to burn your hands? Why are you so anxious to stuff it into someone else's hands? "
Su Huai rubbed his nose. "Grandfather's will mentioned that if Miss True Love is unwilling to accept this start-up capital, Yes. "
"The person is no longer here, and the heir is the one who decides whether to use it or not. Your grandfather can't control it either. " There was no need for her to explain such a simple reason.
Su Huai smiled and shook his head, and didn't say anything more.
When Lin Jia saw that he still insisted on not wanting to change his appearance, she immediately became vigilant.
"Hey, don't tell me you're still thinking of ways to make me accept it? Please, can you not make me the target of the challenge? I'll be very busy when I get back to the company. I don't have time to spend on this kind of thing with you. " She tried very hard to make her stance clear, didn't she?
Su Huai had to accept reality ahead of time. This was only good for both of them.
"I know you won't accept it for the time being. "
Lin Jia corrected him, "It's not temporary, it definitely won't. "
Suddenly, a phone rang. Su Huai made a hand gesture and picked up the phone.
Lin Jia didn't want to eavesdrop on other people's privacy, so she put one hand in her coat pocket and walked at the same pace.
She walked into the airport lobby and went to check on the luggage first. After queuing for a long time, she actually discovered that Su Huai hadn't caught up after completing the procedures.
That must be an especially urgent call. They had chatted for such a long time.
Lin Jia seriously thought, should she stand at the original place and wait for him to finish making the call and return, or should she first go to the security check and sit near the boarding gate?
She thought about it for a moment. She decided to call Su Huai and ask first.
However, the call kept reminding Su Huai that it was in the middle of the call and that it couldn't be answered at all.
Lin Jia had no choice but to write a message and send it over, informing Su Huai that she would see him at the boarding gate later.
Near the boarding gate, Lin Jia dealt with work while occasionally splitting her attention to look at her phone. But until the boarding gate had already started to line up to check the tickets, Su Huai still did not reply.
"What are you doing?" She called him again, but he was still on the phone.
It had been an hour and a half since the two of them had separated. It seemed like they had a great time chatting. After such a long time, they still didn't want to end it.
Lin Jia raised her eyebrows. "It can't be that you didn't even remember that you wanted to catch a plane when you closed the cabin door, right?"
Half an hour later, when the stewardess urged the passengers to turn off their phones or adjust their flight mode for the last time, Lin Jia still did not see Su Huai arrive.
At this time, the cabin door was closed and he was destined to miss the last flight back to Beijing.
Lin Jia was very speechless.
She tried to call Su Huai before taking off. The last call.
"I'm sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off. " A cold and mechanical prompt came through the phone.
- - -
"Boss, you really came back. It's already very late. Everyone thought that they would only see you tomorrow morning or in the afternoon. "
The moment Lin Jia appeared in the company, the members of the project team immediately cheered passionately. Especially when they saw that the big and small bags in Lin Jia's hands were all fragrant supper, the atmosphere became even more enthusiastic.
"Time is too rushed and it's also quite dangerous. I only heaved a sigh of relief when the taxi stopped at the company building. "
Lin Jia put down the things in her hands, turned on the computer, and opened the folder.
Her colleagues were having supper, but she didn't join them. She spent the last time thinking about the contents of the meeting.
"Since we're in such a hurry, we still have time to buy supper. Boss, you're really the only goddess in my heart. " Xiao Zhu held the steaming hot pizza and ate with a satisfied expression. He was the heaviest in the project team, and he was also the easiest to starve. If he didn't have an extra meal every night, he wouldn't even be able to concentrate.
"Don't think too much! The supper is scheduled for takeout. When I put down the order, I calculated the time and directly sent it to the company downstairs. I just conveniently went to pick it up and brought it up. " Lin Jia closed the folder with a snap, "Everyone, eat quickly. There will be a meeting in the conference room in fifteen minutes. "
Wails suddenly sounded.
A second ago, everyone had called her "Goddess," "Kindness, 'Saving Misery," and "Saving Misery. "
A second later, everyone began to mumble about" witch, "" squeezing, squeezing, and capitalists.
In the meeting room, all twelve members of the Silken House project team were present. Regardless of whether they were men or women, all of them had haggard expressions on their faces. It was obvious that they had endured for a few all-nighters. At this moment, they were in a sorry state. " The two words were the most appropriate to describe them.
"Where are Nie Sisi and Zhan Jiaying?" Lin Jia asked.
Kitty and Great God looked at each other. They didn't expect Lin Jia to ask about the two newcomers first.
"Nie Sisi said she has other work to do today, but she's still in her original office, serving the big boss. "
After Kitty answered, Great God also opened her mouth: "Zhan Jiaying gave her work arrangements at the last minute. She hopes to talk to the boss personally tomorrow and then start working. "
"I understand" Lin Jia lowered her eyes, her black eyelashes concealing the emotions in her eyes. "Bebe, call them. If I don't see them sitting in the conference room before midnight tonight, ask them to go directly to Great Elder Liu tomorrow. The Jin Xiu project team will not leave any disobedient spies behind. They can go wherever they want. We'll send them off. "
Bebe received the order and left. Some of the other members of the project team stretched, some lowered their heads and laughed. No one spoke, and all of them had their own thoughts.
"Alright, let's begin our work report. We'll start in turns according to our usual habits. Everyone, let's cut to the chase, because it's already very late. I hope that everyone can go back early to rest and recover. "
Lin Jia clapped her hands, and the clear clapping attracted everyone's attention.
Once they returned to the environment where they needed to go all out, the momentary weakness on Lin Jia's body disappeared without a trace.
She drifted in Beijing. Without her grandmother, she had no home to return to. Other than being brave and going all out, she seemed to have no better choice.
Tired?
Of course, she was tired.
However, since this was his choice, there was no better way apart from gritting his teeth and rushing forward.
- - -
Early in the morning, Big Elder Liu called Lin Jia over with an urgent call.
Before the office door was closed, Big Elder Liu grabbed a book by his hand and smashed it violently onto the table.
"Nonsense! This is ridiculous!"
Lin Jia cleared her throat, and there was still a remnant tiredness from last night between her brows. "Director Liu, you just came to work. What made you so angry? Cease the fire, don't get angry. It's not good for the heart, it's not good for the cerebral vessels, and it's not good for health. "
"Lin Jia, you did it on purpose, right?" Big Elder Liu became even angrier when he saw Lin Jia's innocent expression.
