After we left the Su House by car, Leon leaned on me to sleep until we arrived the Hai City.
He really was good at enjoying himself, not only could he have a delicious meal but also a good sleep even we left late at night.
But I was quite miserable and could not sleep because of his smell of liquor was too strong for me to sleep, and by the time I finally fell asleep, we already arrived home.
After getting off of the car, I finished washing my face and brushing my teeth in a short time, then I was so sleepy that I fell on the bed directly and fell asleep at once.
The next day when I woke up, Leon had gone to work.
Today, he would go to the headquarter of the group to make reports on his work and apply to the board of the directors to approve a project. Since Ruoxin Chen said yesterday that he would definitely stand in the way of his work, I suddenly felt a little worried for him.
He was a proud man, so if his project of high quality was denied, I was afraid that he would argue with the board and went against them, which would make him hard to work afterwards.
After washing up, I went to the company as well to continue to work.
In the afternoon, Leon came back.
He came straight to my office, asking me if I had eaten and he wanted me to accompany him to lunch.
I asked him if the board had approved his project, he denied calmly.
I felt a little bit said for him and asked him what he would do next.
He said he would just eat next and he had something to talk with me.
After hearing that he have something to talk, I felt very nervous about it and I wondered if he would compromise with Ruoxin so that his project could be approved. Besides, Ruoxin had mentioned that he would give Leon a chance.
If he really intended to do that, then I had to agree with him and accept my destiny.
After all, you couldn’t force somebody to do certain things. But I still didn’t believe that he would do such thing, or else he would not be that Fourth Brother who was famous across the whole Hai City.
We had lunch in the dining hall, and didn’t order fish, since we had eaten such delicious fish yesterday, Leon would not accept the other fish’s bad taste today.
We ordered two dishes of vegetables each, and looked like a miserable poor couple sitting in the corner of the dining hall.
The employees all stayed away from us, but still looked at us from time to time. They mainly looked at Leon and the vegetable on our table, probably teasing that we were too stingy at the same time.
I actually felt very nervous because he had something to say.
I didn’t know what he would talk to me, and I was very worried that he would admit his plan to me, so I didn’t eat well. Besides, I had no appetite at all since I stayed up late last night.
Leon ate slowly too, he was not interested in the food in the dining hall at all. Seeing him counting the rice on the plate one by one, I could not stand anymore and said to him directly,” If you have something to say, say it now, don’t suppress yourself. The earlier you say, the earlier you are relieved.”
“You have already know?” Leon asked me in a low voice and his handsome face had a complicated look.
My heart beat strongly, as long as he began to talk with this kind of words, there were no good things. I asked him,”Know what?”
“You don’t know?”
“Know what? Just tell me! You brought about this topic and then just stopped talking, what’s the matter on earth?”
“Your position of the leader of the project in Yang City was dismissed. ” Leon sounded more depressed this time.
“Being dismissed again? I had been dismissed once, and was reemployed, then why did they dismiss me again this time?” Although I had the psychological preparation, I still felt quite surprised about it.
“This time is different from the last time, there’s no turning back now.” Leon said.
“I became the leader only because the Su’s family kept asking me to be, not because I was determined to do. But why there’s no turning back this time?”
“Because this time it was the Su’s family that took the initiative to dismiss you, or else they will terminate the project.”
His answer indeed made me quite surprised, I had thought that I would be pushed out by the Feng’s family, but actually by the Su’s family, which was quite beyond my expectation.
But now that I was dismissed by the Su’s family, why didn’t Wenbei Su called me and told me about it?
My thought was mentioned by Leon,”Wenbei just drank with us last night, how could he choose not to tell us if he knew about it? And since you don’t know this whole thing until now, it means that he didn’t call you either? Why on earth he held it back from you?”
I shook my head and felt a little bit annoyed, didn’t know what to say.
What if he fooled us by means? But it doesn’t seem like that.” Leon said.
” I think he probably knows nothing about it.” I made my conclusion.
“That’s impossible, he is in charge of this project, how could he not know that the company will change the project leader of our company? You are still defending for him, you really treat him as your own Second Brother?” Leon said coldly.
“Fine, just dismiss me, that’s alright, I am not determined to be the person in charge anyway. Let’s talk about your project, what will you do now that it has been denied?”
Leon drank a sip of the soup and waved his hand, saying,” You don’t need to worry about the project, I have gone against them for a long time. I think your dismissal is more important and serious right now.”
“I won’t die even if I couldn’t be that leader, why is it so serious?”
“Just think about it, you could have taken part in the ceremony, as you were invited first. Then when you arrived, they suddenly didn’t allow you to participate. And this time, they asked to dismiss you directly, isn’t this whole thing a big deal?” Leon stared at me and said.
“What’s your opinion of this thing? Where lies its importance?”
“It shows that the leader of the Nanhe Group, or some important person of great power in the Su’s family is determined to push you out, doesn’t it?”
I nodded and agreed with him,”It makes some sense. The ordinary people have no ability to do such things. So this person’s influence is much above Wenbei’s, or else, if he knows about our relationship, he does not dare to do that at all.”
“Indeed it’s true. Although you are generally stupid, sometimes you have your intelligence. So here comes the problem, why does a person who has more power than Wenbei not like you and must push you out? Do you have the ability to become a threat of such a person with great power? Obviously not. Then why on earth he wants to push you out since you are no threat to him at all?”
I really didn’t think about this aspect. After hearing what Leon said, I felt this thing’s great importance at once.
“Then what do you think?” I asked Leon.
“Just think by yourself, I only have few guests, or some possibilities, so there are no standard answers.”
“Is it because there’s internal fighting in Su’s family too, and they don’t want me to be too close with Wenbei and Wenbei to have too many connections with the Hua’s family, which could strengthen the power of his.”
Leon nodded, “Yes, it is possible. What else?”
“There’s another possibility that someone of the Hua’s family made connections with the Su’s family and asked the Su’s to suppress us together, therefore, the Su’s family made actions to dismiss me.”
“There’s not much chance of that, but still has some possibility. What else?” Leon wiped his mouth with a tissue and asked me with his amorous eyes narrowed.
“I can only figure out these two possibilities, I have no idea about the rest.”
“There’s another possibility that Wenbei didn’t see you as his sister at all, instead he liked you. But when he found out that there’s no possibility for you to be with him, he decided to end his feelings to you and dismiss you so that he won’t see you anymore.” Leon said.
“I don’t agree with his thought,” You are comparing a gentleman’s action with that of a mean person, my Second Brother does not like what you said at all.”
“See, you are stupid again. We will have the answer no matter if I’m right about it. Let’s go, since you can’t do this project, I will assign you another work.” Leon stood up and said to me.
