Chapter 627 Reminiscing about the past and sighing about the present
Man's sufferings are often not told to others and can only be endured silently by oneself, just like Chen Feng tonight.
He first meditated in the hotel for almost an hour. After feeling that he had regained some energy, he reluctantly drove to Guo Mengyao's cosmetics factory under the urging of Guo Mengyao through two more phone calls.
Her cosmetics factory covers a large area. In addition to the production workshop, assembly workshop and warehouse, there is also a 7-story administrative building with an elevator. Guo Mengyao's chairman's office is on the top seventh floor. The area is almost 200 square meters, accounting for almost one-third of the area on this floor.
Opposite her office is a multi-functional conference room with an area of 400 to 500 square meters. Next to the office is a reception room and product showroom, both of which are very luxuriously decorated.
Since the second investment in equity financing, the soft packaging on this level has reached a new level. Chairman Guo Mengyao has even replaced his desk and boss chair with brand new ones, which appear larger and more upscale, and of course more expensive.
A desk is larger than a bed and is made of solid wood. It is normal to cost hundreds of thousands. It is impossible for a new boss chair to cost tens of thousands.
While Chen Feng was carefully looking at the furnishings in her office, Guo Mengyao, who was sitting behind the large desk, had already stood up and walked quickly towards him.
Then, before Chen Feng could say anything, she pounced on him like a hungry tiger pouncing on food, and then she just killed him on the sofa against the wall without even entering the rest room.
This feeling was not very good for Chen Feng. If he hadn't turned the tables in the end and let her know how powerful she was, he would have been even more angry.
He wanted to retaliate in kind, but he was unable to do anything and could not do anything.
"What's the matter with you today? You're not in a good state. Are you tired or for other reasons?"
After finishing, Guo Mengyao naturally tightened her tights in front of him jeans, while looking at him with a hint of scrutiny and teasing.
Of course Chen Feng couldn't tell the truth, so he could only pretend to be squeezed dry and said: "Don't you know that I drove for more than six hours? It's National Day and the highway is heavily congested. I've been driving and driving for so long. I feel upset and tired. I planned to take a good sleep first when I came to Linnan. Called again."
Guo Mengyao smiled, but didn't go into detail, and said naturally: "You can't blame me. Do you know how long we have been apart? I think you are normal. , What do you, a man, have to complain about? You don’t want me to find another man, do you?”
Her last words blocked all Chen Feng's complaints. Men are like this. Even if he is a scumbag and doesn't want to see you, he won't allow you, a woman, to find other men.
Chen Feng really wanted to say with a broad mind: Just find another man.
But he obviously can't be so open-minded yet. At least at this stage, he doesn't want Guo Mengyao to find other men in his heart.
Seeing that Chen Feng did not answer, Guo Mengyao raised her lips slightly proudly, quickly put on her clothes, and sat back on the boss chair behind the large desk with her straight long legs. Go up, raise your feet, turn your body back and forth on the chair, and look comfortable and relaxed.
This scene, this picture, if the genders of each other were reversed, would be almost the same as those unspoken rules in the workplace.
Chen Feng looked at Guo Mengyao speechlessly. She looked like a fox that had eaten a chicken, which made Chen Feng feel a little unhappy.
So, Chen Feng also put on his clothes and asked: "How is the recent business?"
Guo Mengyao's expression suddenly froze. Now Mengyao Cosmetics' overall business is still relatively good. It was good, but things about opening her branch were not going very smoothly.
She originally gave up the idea of expanding into the third-tier city market because Chen Feng wanted to withdraw his shares. However, with the addition of two new shareholders, the cash flow increased rapidly, and her own cosmetics became more popular. In the end, she couldn't hold it back and opened a specialty store in five third-tier cities, that is, prefecture-level cities.
This store has been opened, but for so long, the business has been tepid. No one is doing well, and they are basically operating at a loss.
This situation is certainly a big blow to her as a decision-maker.
She has been hesitating during this period, whether to give up her plan to expand into third-tier cities, or to carry out promotional activities in these third-tier city stores, or to invite celebrities to endorse her to enhance the brand Mengyao. and popularity.
“It’s okay.”
Guo Mengyao didn’t want Chen Feng to know that her decision failed, so she could only say this.
But Chen Feng found out from Fang Xiaoyue about her poor management of a specialty store in a third-tier city.
Fang Xiaoyue often sends him WeChat messages when she has something to do, but Chen Feng basically doesn't reply.
Fang Xiaoyue took the initiative to tell him some things about Guo Mengyao, especially some bad things about Guo Mengyao. Guo Mengyao had been constipated for several days, had oral ulcers, had a red rash due to skin allergies, or There is another suitor pestering Guo Mengyao, which of course also includes Guo Mengyao's business problems.
Chen Feng didn't know what Fang Xiaoyue's psychology was based on when she took the initiative to tell him this, but it definitely included jealousy.
They are two high school classmates. Fang Xiaoyue originally became a member of the system, which can be said to be envied by everyone. She has always had a high opinion of herself. Otherwise, she would not still have a partner at such an old age. It is because of her Too picky.
But you have to compare yourself with someone. Compared with Guo Mengyao, she is completely inferior as a staff member. Not only is her status and wealth completely incomparable, even her own hard conditions are completely inferior. There is no way to compare with Guo Mengyao, not as beautiful as her, not as elegant as her, not as good as her figure.
In fact, she can tolerate all these, but the most intolerable thing is that Guo Mengyao has obviously been married, had children and divorced, but she is still in love with Chen Feng.
And she has never been married, never had a child, and has never had an abortion. In theory, she can be regarded as a "big girl". Even if she is not as charming and beautiful as Guo Mengyao, she can still be regarded as a beauty. , but she took the initiative to stick to Chen Feng several times, implying that Chen Feng was no longer on good terms with her, but was on good terms with Guo Mengyao instead.
She was naturally unconvinced and unwilling, and it was inevitable that she would be jealous of Guo Mengyao.
Of course, on the surface, she and Guo Mengyao are now good best friends who talk about everything. They often meet in private and even visit each other.
So, although Chen Feng didn't pay much attention to Guo Mengyao, he learned a lot about her from Fang Xiaoyue, the undercover agent, which was generally things that Guo Mengyao himself would not tell him.
"That's good." Chen Feng didn't expose her, there was no need. Now he is no longer a shareholder of Mengyao Cosmetics Company, nor can he be considered her boyfriend.
"Qin Zhen's engagement party the day after tomorrow will be attended by most of our classmates, and it will definitely be lively. However, the two of us who are divorced and single will definitely become the target of their public criticism. Do you want to Be mentally prepared.”
Guo Mengyao didn’t want to talk about the company’s business with Chen Feng, so she changed the topic to Qin Zhen’s engagement party.
In high school, Qin Zhen had a good relationship with most of his classmates. Coupled with his family background and current department-level position in the system, there were even more people who would try to curry favor with him.
Therefore, when he got engaged this time, basically all his high school classmates who could make it came over. In addition, there were many junior high school classmates and even elementary school classmates, several college classmates, and several comrades-in-arms.
Coupled with the large group of relatives and friends at home, he could not host this engagement party without having forty or fifty tables.
"What kind of psychological preparation should I make? I didn't have much presence in the class at the beginning, and some classmates may not even remember me."
Compared with Qin Zhen and Guo Mengyao The two county | city children were very active in the class at first, but Chen Feng, as a country boy, was very taciturn. In high school, he was not very gregarious in the class. The only classmate he really had good friends with was Qin Zhen, and he was very taciturn with other classmates. Not really close.
At that time, Chen Feng was an honest kid who concentrated on studying and answering questions. He was a typical question writer from a small town who came from a poor family. He did not cause trouble and was not gregarious. Generally, he did not have a strong sense of presence.
"Don't underestimate yourself. I don't know anything else, but basically all the girls in our class still remember you. Needless to say, Xiaoyue and I, many other female classmates have asked about us when they were in our classmate group. You. Xiaoyue and I didn't say anything about you, but Wang Fang said that you were divorced and made a fortune in Xiuzhou.
I later sent her a private message and asked her not to. It's nonsense, she didn't say it Your thing. However, after she said this, many single female students in our class are very interested in you and are asking for your contact information. Have they contacted you recently? "
Chen Feng has never joined the group of high school classmates, mainly because his relationship with these classmates was very ordinary at the beginning. Now that he has contacted them more than ten years ago, how much classmate friendship can he have?
And Chen Feng didn’t buy insurance or do business of attracting people. It was completely unnecessary and meaningless to join the group to deal with these old classmates who hadn’t seen each other for more than ten years, so he didn’t bother to join.
Qin Zhen and Fang Xiaoyue, who tried to get him to join the group, saw that he refused to join the group, but did not persuade him much. Originally, it was personal freedom whether to join or not.
As for the female classmate asking for his contact information to add him, Chen Feng knew it, but he treated it as a liar from the beginning.
When I added WeChat friends for verification, they all failed. Chen Feng did not answer two calls from unknown numbers.
Originally, Chen Feng's relationship with these classmates was average, and now that there are enough women around him, there is really no need to expand his interpersonal relationships.
"There should be, but I haven't passed any of them. I usually don't answer calls from strangers if they call me."
When Guo Mengyao heard this, she couldn't help but smile and call him Thumbs up: "You are really good. No wonder two female classmates in the group asked you to call you before, but you didn't answer or reply. I thought they got your mobile phone number wrong."
Chen Feng also said with a smile: "Are they all so idle?"
Guo Mengyao shook her head and said: "You still underestimated your own charm in the class. In fact, many female classmates in our class are attracted to you. I have a good impression, including me, but We were too reserved as girls at that time, and none of us had the guts to confess to you.
But now they have all experienced social beatings, and all of them have become old fritters. Of course, they have become thicker and thicker. The main thing is that this guy Wang Fang was exposed in the group It is said that you have made a fortune in Xiuzhou, and Qin Zhen even sent you a recent handsome photo. Of course, all the old ladies are drooling over you, especially the single ones.
< br>Hmph, it’s a pity that they all obviously want to eat shit, even me I can’t even handle you, let alone them, you’re a bunch of scumbags, not two of them are good enough for me.”
Chen Feng said with a smile: “Listen to what you said, there are still one or two good-looking people. I can fight with you, right? ”
Guo Mengyao rolled her eyes at him and pouted unhappily, but finally said: "Who else? Isn't it Zhao Zixuan?"
"Zhao Zixuan?" Chen Feng thought hard in his head with some doubts. I think it is connected with a girl in my memory who wears glasses, has a ponytail, and is dressed in an old-fashioned way.
The female classmate named Zhao Zixuan in my memory was not a beauty.
“It’s surprising, isn’t it?” Guo Mengyao asked with a smile.
Chen Feng nodded: "Yes, in my memory Zhao Zixuan does not seem to be very beautiful. The most beautiful one was Cheng Yuhan, who was recognized by our school at that time. She was our class and school beauty."
When Guo Mengyao heard what he said, she was immediately disgusted and sneered: "Although Cheng Yuhan is pretty pretty now, she has long lost the elegance and agility of the past. Do you know the reason?"
< br>Chen Feng shook his head.
Guo Mengyao continued: "It can only be said that she was too beautiful when she was young and was coveted by many people. And she squandered her beauty too much and did not know how to love herself. She only took three exams in college. Tuition is very expensive, and as a result After a family accident, her mother became seriously ill and her father lost money in business, so she had to sell the family house to pay off debts and get medical treatment.
As a result, she obviously couldn't afford the high tuition fees for the next school year, even in normal times. living expenses She had no place to live, so she had no choice but to choose a wealthy second-generation man among many suitors at that time.
Later, she had an abortion and an abortion for this rich second-generation man, and she followed him. He was eventually dumped after two years After that, she secretly fell in love with an old professor who could be her father, and was deceived by him. She thought that after she graduated, the old professor would divorce her, but of course the old guy didn't really want to marry her. She.
However, the old guy finally gave her a breakup fee of 200,000 yuan in order to be afraid that she would cause trouble in school.
After that, Cheng Yuhan completely let herself go and struggled in society for several years. With her beauty, she was successful in her work and career, captured many men, and earned a lot of money. A lot of money. But she also completely degenerated, and the relationship between men and women was very convenient.
Two years ago, her mother passed away. Before she died, she asked her to find someone to marry. She cried and agreed. So, two years ago, she found a wealthy old man to marry who was more than ten years older than her. This old man was very kind to her and could be said to be completely obedient to her. She gave birth to a daughter a year ago, and her family could barely be considered happy. But the spirited and ethereal temperament she had when she was young can never come back. ”
