Chapter 17 A Call from Home
Chapter 17 A Call from Home
On the way back, the warm mood was as bright as the spring sunshine.
At this moment, everything in my eyes becomes exceptionally beautiful, whether it is the swaying green trees on the street or the clouds floating in the sky, they are pleasing to the eye no matter how you look at them.
I finally got rid of that boring job and I feel so happy.
Thinking of Bai Yueyue, I couldn't help but laugh at her naivety. She thought she had gotten a bargain, but she didn't know that it was not so easy to enter a wealthy family.
Wen Nuan was in such a good mood that the first thing she did after returning home was to open her computer and write her resignation report.
She was fully focused and her thoughts were racing. She finished the report in just ten minutes and sent it to Lin Handong's computer.
Lin Handong had Bai Yueyue watching him closely, so the reply came quickly.
In just half an hour, he agreed to Wen Nuan's resignation.
When Wen Nuan saw that her resignation letter was approved, she felt an indescribable joy in her heart.
It was as if the heavy stone that had been on my back was finally lifted.
She felt more relaxed than ever before, like a bird that had escaped from a cage and could fly freely into the vast sky.
The next day, Wen Nuan arrived at the Lin Group early in the morning.
She walked straight to the office area to complete her resignation procedures and pack up her office supplies.
When the colleagues in the general manager's office saw Wen Nuan, they were full of curiosity and wanted to ask her the reason for her resignation, but when they remembered that Bai Yueyue was also at work today, they stopped in their tracks.
Everyone knows that Bai Yueyue is now regarded as a "Crown Princess", and no one dares to touch this bad luck for fear of getting into trouble.
Wen Nuan noticed that her colleagues seemed to be hesitant to talk, but she didn't care.
She organized her belongings in an orderly manner. All the office supplies that had accompanied her in work were now sorted out and put back in place one by one.
After nearly two hours, Wen Nuan finally packed her things.
Before leaving, she did not say goodbye to Lin Handong, and even though Bai Yueyue was sitting opposite her, she did not say a word to her.
After all, they were leaving soon, and she felt that there was no need to be so hypocritical any longer.
She straightened her back, took firm steps, and walked out of the Lin Group without looking back.
Wen Nuan walked along, thinking silently in her heart that she might never set foot here again.
When Wen Nuan walked to the door of Lin Group and was about to embark on a new journey of life, she suddenly heard a familiar voice.
Assistant Li suddenly appeared and said, "Sister Wen Nuan, let me take you there."
Wen Nuan was a little surprised and asked hurriedly, "Why did you come down?"
A wave of emotion welled up in my warm heart. This silly girl was not afraid when others were busy flattering her.
Wen Nuan said worriedly: "After you send me off today, Bai Yueyue might make things difficult for you."
Assistant Li said firmly: "I'm not afraid. Sister Wen Nuan, we are colleagues and we should give you a present. Thank you for your care all the time."
Wen Nuan looked at the sincere Assistant Li in front of her, her heart filled with emotion.
The two were silent for a moment, and Assistant Li couldn't help asking, "Sister Wen Nuan, which company are you going to work for in the future? We must keep in touch in the future."
Wen Nuan looked at the kind-hearted girl in front of her, her heart was filled with emotion, and she smiled and said, "You can contact me at any time. I have signed a non-compete agreement and cannot work in the same industry within three years."
Assistant Li showed an annoyed look on her face. She lowered her head slightly and said in a tone full of self-blame: "Sister Wen Nuan, if I hadn't said that I wanted to play truth or dare that day, there wouldn't be so many things.
I really didn't expect things to turn out like this. If I could have foreseen the troubles that would follow, I definitely wouldn't have suggested playing that game.
I feel really regretful now, and feel like it was me who dragged you into this mess.
You were doing well in the company, but it was because of my whim that you got into this predicament.
I really wish I could go back in time and take back that proposal so that you wouldn’t have to leave the company and face so much trouble and distress.”
After saying that, Assistant Li raised his head and looked at Wen Nuan with guilt in his eyes.
Wen Nuan looked at Assistant Li, who was full of regret, smiled gently, and said softly: "It's okay, silly girl. I know your friendship, and this matter can't be blamed entirely on you. Even if there was no truth or dare that day, I would have planned to leave. I have been here for so long, and it's time to start a new chapter in my life. Besides, I may go back to inherit the family business later."
There was a hint of longing and determination in his warm eyes, and he continued:
“This is also a new beginning, and I believe there will be something exciting waiting for me in the future.
Don't blame yourself too much. Work hard in the company and you will definitely have good development in the future. We all need to look forward and not always dwell on the past."
As Assistant Li listened to Wen Nuan's words, the guilt in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by blessings and admiration for Wen Nuan.
She nodded vigorously and said, "Sister Wen Nuan, you are right. I will work hard and hope you will have smooth sailing on your new path. When you inherit the family business, don't forget me, your little assistant."
The two smiled at each other, and the sunshine shining on them seemed to lay a warm foundation for their future.
Wen Nuan looked at Assistant Li and said gently, "Okay, go back to work quickly and don't delay your work because of me.
You need to work hard and perform well in the company. Although I have left, I believe you will be able to shine in your position. "
After listening to this, Assistant Li showed a reluctant expression on her face. She pouted and said, "Okay, then you must contact me when the time comes. I will miss you, Sister Wen Nuan. You can't forget me."
Her eyes were full of reluctance, as if she wanted to stay with warmth a little longer.
But she also knew that Wen Nuan was right and she couldn't delay her work just to send her off.
So she slowly turned around and walked towards the company, looking back every few steps.
Wen Nuan looked at Assistant Li's back, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
She knew how rare it was to have such a sincere friendship in this complex workplace.
Not long after I returned home, the warm phone rang.
Wen Nuan took a look and was stunned for a moment. It turned out to be a call from Wen's father.
Ever since she unilaterally fell out with her family, she has never contacted them again.
Even though she was so poor that she could only eat instant noodles for a year, she never bowed her head to her family.
The Wen family members are all very stubborn, especially Mother Wen and Wen Nuan, and Father Wen is a henpecked wife slave. When Mother Wen asked Father Wen to find her, Father Wen dared not disobey.
Wen Nuan looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar number on the phone screen, feeling mixed emotions.
All the quarrels and conflicts I had in the past flashed through my mind one by one. They were all caused by my own immaturity.
She didn't know whether she should answer the call or how to face her parents.
But at the same time, there is a trace of longing in my heart, a longing for the long-lost family affection.
After hesitating for a moment, Wen Nuan finally took a deep breath and pressed the answer button.
