Volume 4 Chapter 17 A Night of Rain
It’s the time when the lanterns first come on again.
At this time, all the employees of Tong's Enterprise have gone off work.
In such a large company, Tong Yu is the only one left. If there is nothing urgent to deal with, he is usually willing to stay alone in the company for a while.
Tong's company generally does not require employees to work overtime, which is Tong Yu's consistent practice. He never believed that unscrupulously squeezing employees' life time could bring good benefits to the company. Employees are the treasure of an enterprise. Without their enthusiasm and initiative, there will be no development of the enterprise. The efficiency of employees cannot be driven by overtime work. On the contrary, frequent overtime work will make employees resentful and even lead to the dispersion of talents, which is very unfortunate. Conducive to the healthy operation of the enterprise. Not many people understand this truth. Maybe those people understand it but just can't do it. But Tong Yu understands it and he always does it. It can be seen from the normal working status of employees that his actions are not without good results.
Tong Yu read this week's operating status and income and expenditure report again, and wrote some notes. This is a habit he has developed over the years.
For an enterprise to stand out from the crowd of competitors and achieve glory, it cannot be achieved by trickery. As the head of an enterprise, you don’t have to worry about the specific operations and daily management below, but you still need to be aware of some hard data of the enterprise. What you should do, what you should put down, what you should do must be done seriously and persistently, and what should be put down must be completely decentralized. Only in this way can the core cohesion of an enterprise be improved and run on the track of good development. Unlike the leaders of some companies, it’s really funny to think about it. The departments have created a lot, and the person in charge has been carefully selected. However, you are still gesticulating between departments from time to time. You are so energetic, then Why are you setting up so many puppets? What potential does such a company have?
After a while, Tong Yu put down his pen, rubbed his temples with both hands, stood up and walked to the window.
Through that window, you can have a panoramic view of the city. Night has fallen, and only a sliver of lights can be seen, which is very bright against the night.
He liked this city and the working environment here even more, so he spent a lot of money to rent an entire floor from Tianluo World as the headquarters of Tong's enterprise.
It should be said that he is still very courageous. Few other companies of his size can be so cruel. It can also be said that he has a unique and long-term vision. Looking at the current situation of the snail world, it is really overcrowded. Those who just thought of moving in now will not be able to do it even if they try their best.
Leveraging on the reputation of the snail world, Tong's enterprise has skyrocketed in popularity and reputation in the market in recent years, which has brought generous feedback. Although Tianluo World has made appropriate adjustments to the rent every time the contract is renewed, it is really insignificant compared to the development of Tong's enterprise, not to mention Tianluo World does not talk about it very much. Unlike some lessors, when the situation changes, they seem to be eager to drive you away, making excessive demands that are unreasonable and untenable.
Seeing that it was getting late, Tong Yu closed the curtains and gently closed the door.
This is where you struggle! Looking around the quiet office hall, Tong Yu felt excited every time. I have worked hard along the way, there have been difficulties and there have been times of excitement, but fortunately I have achieved what I have achieved today. Looking back on the past, it seems that everything is not that important anymore.
After coming down from Tianluo, he didn't know where to go next, so he walked out of Tianluo World alone and walked aimlessly on the street. Unconsciously, he came to the coffee shop he was familiar with, and left naturally. Go in.
He was considered a regular customer here. Although the shop was relatively busy at this time, the boss quickly placed a cup of hot coffee in front of him.
well! After taking a sip of strong coffee, Tong Yu couldn't help but sigh. He casually took out a stick of incense
To smoke, he lit it with a lighter, took a heavy puff, and then slowly exhaled a cloud of smoke, which was completely different from his usual neatness.
Not long after he sat down, his cell phone rang.
"Mr. Tong, I am Xiaoming..."
Every time at this time, when he didn't know where to go, secretary Lin Xiaoming's voice would come from his mobile phone. The reason why Tong Yu doesn't get tired of being with her is because Lin Xiaoming is different from other women. She understands him and doesn't ask him for anything or ask him to be responsible for anything. It's natural and happy for the two of them to be together. Tong Yu put out his cigarette, took another sip of coffee, leaned back on his seat, closed his eyes and rested his mind. Suddenly, that fiery body appeared in his mind, entangled in all his thoughts.
I remember it was a day in June. The weather was erratic and could change at any time. The sun was scorching just now, but suddenly, the sun hid behind the clouds, the white clouds became thicker and thicker, and the clouds became darker and darker. After a while, the sky and the earth became dark, and then it began to rain lightly. The rain seemed to have been depressed for a long time, but it became heavier and heavier, washing away the crowds of people on the street and dispersing the dust that had accumulated for many days. When he encountered some setbacks in business, he felt heavy, so he went out for a walk to relieve his depression. After running a few laps on the field to let off steam, I was slowly walking back when I didn't expect it to start raining so heavily.
The sky gradually darkened, but the rain was still falling.
He saw a coffee shop in the distance and rushed in despite the rain.
Probably because of the rain, there were many people at this time.
The boss took him to a place near the corner. There was another seat here, but there was already someone on the other side, a woman.
After sitting down, he couldn't help but look at the woman opposite him. Seeing the melancholy look on her face, he realized that she was having some troubles just like him. He saw that she was sipping the thick liquid in the cup one after another. After taking a sip of coffee, I was stunned for a while, and then took another sip. It seemed that I was not drinking coffee, but more like I was concentrating on doing something very difficult. Sometimes I even choked on the coffee and coughed.
From beginning to end, she didn't even look at him.
well! He sighed, but unexpectedly the woman opposite him also sighed at this time.
He was startled and couldn't help but look at her, and she looked at him too. The two people just looked at each other without any other words.
After a while, they drank coffee again.
It is getting late, the rain has not stopped, but there are fewer and fewer people.
It was finally time for the coffee shop to close.
Standing at the door, looking at the heavy rain and fog, he didn't know where to go.
"If you don't mind, let's go together!" It was a woman's voice.
He wanted to refuse, but he couldn't help but follow her, hiding in the clear sky.
He didn't dare to get too close to her, so most of his body was still in the rain and mist. She probably noticed it and moved the umbrella closer to him. People came up with him, and he moved further into the rain and mist. .

The woman got a little angry and said, "Am I going to eat you?"
He felt embarrassed for a moment and thought about how stingy he was, so he calmed down, took the umbrella from her hand, and held up the clear sky for her.
However, the woman moved further into the rain and fog.
He was startled.
The woman seemed to complain a little and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will get too close?"
He was speechless for a moment.
The woman seemed to be teasing and said, "Are you afraid that your girlfriend will misunderstand you?"
Seeing that she was a little angry, he felt guilty and hurriedly moved forward, holding the umbrella with his left hand and hugging her waist with his right hand.
The woman raised her face and said, "What, you're not afraid anymore?"
He could see the deep melancholy on her face and said, "I'm sorry."
I don't know
As he slept, he felt her soft body getting closer and closer to him, and he felt relieved, so he hugged her a little tighter.
After walking for a long time, he asked: "Are you here?"
The woman smiled half-heartedly and said, "It's over a long time ago, how about you?"
He said: "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"
The woman said: "You didn't ask me."
He was speechless again.
The woman said: "If you are not afraid, just come to my side!"
He said: "How can this work?"
The woman said: "I invite you with good intentions, but don't think that I am a casual person."
He quickly said: "No...that's not what I meant."
The woman smiled and said, "Let's go then." She turned around and walked back to the way she came.
He stayed for a moment, watching her walk into the rain and mist, but he had no choice but to follow her.
Probably because he was tired, he lay down on the sofa. When people were quiet, those past memories, both joyful and bitter, came to mind again. There was a sound of water rushing in the bathroom. It was a woman taking a shower. He didn't dare to think too much and started to close his eyes and rest.
At some point, the woman had finished taking a shower and came to him and said, "What, what are you thinking about?"
He opened his eyes, straightened up, and looked at her. She was only wearing a bath towel, her long hair was still wet, and her cheeks were a little red.
He said: "That's just me. There are some things I want to forget, but I can't! What about you?"
"I……"
When she mentioned the past, the woman's eyes turned red, and she seemed to be begging, with tears in her eyes. She said, "Can you lend me your shoulder?"
Tong Yu did not refuse and said: "Okay."
The woman came forward and sat down next to him, rested her head on his shoulder, and began to sob softly. It looked like she looked a little strong just now, but who knew that she was just pretending? Her heart was actually fragile and could not withstand any blow.
Those lingering sad memories are like poison, destroying your every tomorrow. He couldn't help but pat her shoulder lightly. As a result, she cried even louder, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances in her heart at this moment.
He felt tenderness in his heart and hugged her involuntarily. She didn't refuse. She leaned against his chest, sobbing slightly. He hugged her tightly, smelling the fragrance of her hair, and gently caressed her thin back with one hand. Her body was trembling slightly, but her body gradually became warmer. He also felt the same way, but he kept resisting some kind of temptation in his heart.
He finally couldn't help it, held her face in his hands, and asked gently: "Can I do it?"
The woman closed her eyes and said softly: "Yes."
He touched her forehead lovingly, then tapped on the tip of her petite nose, and finally stopped on those two soft cherry lips.
The woman began to tremble.
The two people just forgot everything and kissed deeply.
Everything happened naturally.
They were still holding each other tightly as the first rays of dawn broke through the last clouds.
He whispered: "I have to go!"
The woman said: "Will you come back?"
He said: "I will definitely come!"
She walked him to the door, and he looked at her affectionately, no longer hesitated, and stepped forward. He did not betray his promise, and not long after, she, Lin Xiaoming, became his secretary.
"Mr. Tong, are you going home?" Xiao Chen, the driver who came to pick him up, asked softly.
"...No." Tong Yu replied.
Xiao Chen understood what he meant and said nothing more.
No pedestrians could be seen on the dim street. Only a silver-gray car could be vaguely seen running into the depths, and was immediately swallowed up by the darkness of the night.
