Chapter 23: A Simple Wish
Dean Lan arrived at the company office but Amy was not there, he picked up the phone on his desk and called Amy, saying, “Where are you now? Come see me right away.”
Amy received a call from Dean Lan and said, “I’m at the office, I’ll be right there.”
Five minutes later, Amy walked in with a pile of information in her hands.
Dean Lan’s right index finger tapped on the desktop, the sound with a rhythm, making people do not understand his attitude.
Amy knew her boss’s character very well, she went up and put the information on Dean Lan’s desk, then stood aside and said, “Miss Qiu’s group Charmaine Qiu returned to China.”
Dean Lan looked out the window and smiled, saying carelessly, “You called me back because of this matter?”
Dean Lan was upset about his time with Sansa Ran being interrupted.
Amy could only shake her head helplessly at her boss’s attitude and explained, “The Qiu family said that their Missy was once adopted by the Lan family, and this time their Missy returned to China, wanting to bring the two families closer together and be able to strengthen their cooperation. This is the proposal they put forward, Mr. Lan please look through it.”
Dean Lan did not look at the information placed on the table, stood up and came to the floor-to-ceiling window to look at the traffic downstairs, and said slowly, “When did our Lan family also fall to the point that even the Qiu family can cooperate, you go tell them that I am not interested.”
Amy could do nothing about her boss’ attitude, she could only persuade with a light smile, “The Qiu family’s strength is different from the past, I hope Mr. Lan will consider it carefully.”
Dean Lan did not care, in his eyes his own company did not need to cooperate with others to seek benefits. Why give someone else a pie when you can obviously share it yourself. “Even if his strength is different from the past, what can it be? Why go and get yourself into trouble, our Blue family doesn’t need to work with people.”
Amy was about to say something when Dean Lan turned his head and said, “You go down! I’ll take care of this matter myself and move up the meeting in two days.”
Amy looked at Dean Lan in confusion and asked tentatively, “Mr. Lan, what is this?”
The first time I saw the boss smile, Amy looked at Dean Lan with surprise. I’d like to bring forward my trip in two days, but if not, I’ll postpone it.”
Amy thought of the HYN project with another company and said hesitantly, “What about the Mr. LanHYN project? The head of the partner is very punctual will not agree to change the time, how to deal with this?”
Dean Lan put his hands in his pockets and thought of the promise he had made to Jeffrey and said, “You are responsible for negotiating with him to put the time into the evening, and if that doesn’t work, then abandon the project.”
Amy opened her mouth and didn’t say what she thought, but replied, “Yes, I’ll get on it.” And she left.
Amy was curious about what had changed in her boss’s mind, but Dean Lan himself did not know what had changed, except that he thought of Sansa Ran and Jeffrey and could not help but feel a softness in his heart.
People’s habits are formed over a long period of time, if one day for a person easily change, just because that person in the heart is important enough, just she now but did not understand her own heart.
Half an hour later, Amy came to inform Dean Lan to go to the meeting, and Dean Lan tidied up her dress and rushed to the meeting room, where Dean Lan’s arrival made all the department heads stand up uneasily to greet her.
Dean Lan gestured for everyone to sit down and said, “I’m sorry that the meeting was moved up two days because of my personal reasons, so I’ll start with the planning department to report on the summary and insights of our work during this period.”
Everyone replied, “Yes.”
Dean Lan listened to the work of each department, occasionally pointing out the shortcomings and asking his subordinates to make corrections.
On the other hand, Sansa Ran and Jeffrey returned home, and Sansa Ran went to cook dinner while Jeffrey played with his toys in his room. Sansa Ran was not able to ask Jeffrey directly in Dean Lan’s car just now.
At dinner Sansa Ran said gently, “Come on, Jeffrey eat more vegetables to grow taller.”
Jeffrey replied obediently, “Okay, mommy I want to eat some more vegetables.”
Sansa Ran put a chopstick of vegetables in Jeffrey’s bowl and said, “Mommy will give it to you, so you can eat more.”
Jeffrey kept plucking rice as he ate the vegetables in his bowl.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Sansa Ran thought about what happened today and said tentatively, “Jeffrey, mommy asked you a question, you must answer mommy seriously.”
Jeffrey put down the dishes in his hands and sat upright with a serious face and said, “You ask it! Jeffrey promised not to lie to mom.”
Sansa Ran looked at Jeffrey, who was so well behaved in front of her, and said, “Don’t be so nervous, mommy just wants to ask you if Dean Lan is nice. Why do you like to cling to him?”
Jeffrey said seriously, “Because he is my father, why can’t I play with him?”
Sansa Ran didn’t know how to argue with this statement, because after all, Dean Lan is indeed the child’s father, and he has no right to stop the child from seeing his father. Mom doesn’t stop you. Mom also asked you a question.”
Jeffrey suddenly sighed, he was afraid that his mom wouldn’t let him play with his hard to find dad. Picking up his bowl and chopsticks, he said as he ate, “Go ahead and ask!”
Sansa Ran hesitated but asked, “Why do you always want mommy to be with him?”
Jeffrey didn’t realize the discomfort in Sansa Ran’s heart and just said to himself, “You are my mom and Justin’s mom, and he is my dad and Justin’s dad. Aren’t dad and mom supposed to live together?”
Jeffrey’s words made Sansa Ran wonder what exactly to do to explain that Sansa Ran didn’t expect to have them accidentally in the first place. Sansa Ran’s feeling for Dean Lan was unfamiliar and could only explain Jeffrey’s statement by saying, “But mommy and he are not familiar with each other and it’s impossible to be together without feelings. ”
Jeffrey looked at Sansa Ran with pure eyes and said, “Why do other people’s moms and dads get to be together? Today Daddy said he would be with you, don’t you like him?”
