Shi Ran and Song Sichen didn't get Xicheng's plan, so they stopped paying special attention to it, especially Shi Ran. Grandpa was still in a coma. The Shi family seemed to be going according to plan and nothing happened, but there was a feeling before the storm. The same quietness.
A month later, it was a rainy day when I learned about the West City Project again.
It rained heavily for two whole days. At night, the heavy rain seemed to wash away all traces of the city.
Shiran stood in front of the window, rain hitting the window.
"Something's going to happen."
Looking at the sky with heavy rainfall, he murmured to himself.
She didn't speak loudly, being drowned out by the noisy rain.
The surroundings were obscured by dark clouds and it was pitch black.
Although it is the annual rainy season, everyone seems to be in a much worse mood in the face of unprecedented heavy rains.
Early morning.
Unable to sleep at all, Shiran sat on the bed and looked at the rain that kept falling, without speaking, just looking straight at it.
She had a bad feeling in her heart.
"That's today."
Shi Ran sighed solemnly.
It didn't take long.
A sound of thunder made Shiran's body tremble. He picked up his phone and took a look. It was already past two o'clock in the morning.
I turned on my phone uneasily, and when I saw the hotly searched terms, my face became even more gloomy.
Sure enough, it happened.
Xicheng Development has experienced mudslides due to heavy rains in the past few days, and the villages at the foot of the mountain have been washed away. The specific situation is not yet known.
But Shiran knew that after her rebirth, she knew that this mudslide resulted in the death of eleven people and hundreds of millions of property losses.
Mrs. Song's father also died in this accident.
"Father? What did you say?"
No matter how famous Mrs. Song was for being a bloodless and tearless person, she was helpless in the face of her father's bad news.
Ni An said even more sadly.
"I rushed to the construction site overnight yesterday, but was washed away due to a mudslide. Now my life or death is uncertain. It is estimated that there is a bad outcome."
Originally he had blocked it, but Mrs. Song's father insisted on going to see the situation at the construction site and was worried. After all, all their belongings were invested in entering. If an accident happened, they would be doomed.
Halfway through, we encountered a mudslide.
No one expected that something like this would happen, and he was swept away so unexpectedly.
Mrs. Song slowly lowered her head, her face drooped and she could no longer see her face.
Seeing this scene, Ni An couldn't help feeling sorry and comforted Mrs. Song.
"I know you will be very sad, Mrs. Song. Although it is said that the situation is grim, there is still a glimmer of hope. It may be okay."
The deep voice and Mrs. Song remained motionless.
How sad it must be to be like that.
Maybe there were tears on Mrs. Song's face.
Ni An didn't know what to say next to comfort Mrs. Song.
"How is the situation at the construction site?"
"What?" Ni An doubted his ears, and then asked: "What are you talking about?"
"How is the situation at the construction site?"
Mrs. Song, who repeated this sentence again, slowly raised her head.
The sun once again shone on Mrs. Song's face, perfect.
She did not shed tears, her face was cleanly made up, and her face did not become distorted with sadness.
The face was exactly the same as when he greeted Ni An just now.
"Dad insisted on going to the construction site regardless of his own safety on a rainy day because he was worried about the conditions at the construction site. So what is the construction site like?"
Ni An was speechless for a moment.
Her beautiful face was like an expressionless statue.
No emotion whatsoever.
Anyone would be sad to hear that their father was missing and had an accident, but Mrs. Song only asked about the situation at the construction site and did not worry too much about her father.
The western development project was more important than his father's safety.
"You didn't get the confirmation code before you came?"
There was still the expressionless look and the voice without any tone.
Ni An couldn't say a word because his mind was filled with one idea.
[Mrs. Song is dangerous and you should keep your distance from her. 】
Mrs. Song is a person who can use any means for her own ambitions.
She has no emotions.
【run. 】
"I'm sorry, ma'am. It happened too suddenly and there wasn't enough time."
After saying this, Ni An raised his head and looked at Mrs. Song's face, but there was no change.
After hesitating, he spoke.
"Madam, I got a call from my hometown not long ago saying that my father is sick and wants me to come home. I have been away from home for so many years and have been busy with work and have not been able to go back. This time I want to resign and go back to spend time with my parents." Maybe it was because of lying. I just thought of the reason, so I didn't dare to look into Mrs. Song's eyes. "Madam, I will hand over the work to someone else within a week and resign voluntarily. Madam, I'm sorry, I can no longer work for you."
"That's such a pity!" Mrs. Song said this with a cold light in her eyes. "There is no other way. After all, family is very important."
Listening to these words, Ni An found it hard to believe that he was the same person as Mrs. Song, who had just been indifferent when she heard that her father was missing or dead.
"Thank you, madam, for your cultivation over the years."
Unable to accept Mrs. Song's gaze, Ni An lowered his head, avoided her gaze, and swallowed.
"Yes." Mrs. Song said lightly. "Go and hand over the work to the people below."
"Ma'am, goodbye."
Ni left the room feeling anxious.
The moment I closed the door, I breathed a sigh of relief.
fortunately!
Mrs. Song stared coldly at the back of Ni An who left the position in a panic after bowing. It was still raining lightly outside, but the sound of his car driving away could be heard.
Afterwards, Mrs. Song called people over.
"Call my brother over here."
It didn't take long.
Mrs. Song's brother appeared in front of her.
"Dad passed away."
My brother heard these words before he could sit down.
"Sister, what did you just say?"
"Dad passed away."
"How can it be?"
The younger brother felt that the sky was falling, and his legs were weak and he slumped down on the chair.
However, he didn't even have time to grieve when he heard Mrs. Song say in a calm tone: "Although the body has not been found yet, it is almost the same. It was washed away in the mudslide and its whereabouts are unknown. It should be like that. So, You have a lot to do now, and from now on, you have to obey my orders."
"That's too much, sister!" the younger brother shouted angrily. "Dad was in an accident and his whereabouts are unknown. He hasn't been found yet. How can you just say that he passed away like that? My sister doesn't even look sad, and doesn't even want to find dad?"
"So?" Mrs. Song interrupted his conversation with a sharp voice. "If we don't deal with the company's affairs quickly, then the responsibility will be borne by us. Maybe if something happens to dad, it's a good thing."
"Sister!" The younger brother shouted in shock: "What are you talking about?"
However, Mrs. Song ignored her brother's reaction.
"They claimed that the cause of the landslide was due to problems with our engineering, excessive felling and excavation. If there is one person who must bear the responsibility for this accident, it must be Dad, who is uncertain about his life or death. He blames everything on Dad for us to live. For these people, it’s better.”
