Chapter 17 "Sorry"

Tan Zheng is actually a stern look, with a narrow and long face, heavy eyebrows, hair and pupil color, standard Ruifeng eyes with sharp and slightly raised tails, high browbones and deep eye sockets, thin lips and nose, and a natural look when there is no expression. of coercive indifference.

But Ren Zhaoyuan often doesn't realize it.

Even when he was unfamiliar with Tan Zheng before, his impression of Tan Zheng was very weak.

He was always very vivid in front of Ren Zhaoyuan, his eyes seemed to speak, when he was sincere, he was clear to the bottom, when he was happy, his light flashed, when he was nervous, and when he was angry, for example now——

His brows were squinted lower, and the ravines in the second half of his double eyelids were pulled even more clearly, and his dark and deep eyes stared straight at Ren Zhaoyuan.

It stands to reason that it should be very deterrent, but it seems that he has suffered a lot of grievances and is reluctant to speak and wants to ask for an explanation.

Ren Zhaoyuan looked at Tan Zheng for a few seconds in astonishment, not knowing why his focus was here.

Besides, which word in that sentence means an apology for Zhao Yuanqing and him?

Ren Zhaoyuan had to think that he was not apologizing to him just now, but blaming him for something.

Like a kid pissed off.

Ren Zhaoyuan couldn't help but want to laugh and was a little annoyed: "I'm for myself."

Tan Zheng was satisfied, but he didn't show it on his face.

"In the final analysis, this matter is because of me," Ren Zhaoyuan said. "I will talk to Zhao Yuanqing. The losses that have already been caused may not be recovered, but at least don't let the impact expand."

He originally wanted to say that he would make up for the losses caused, but he thought that his apology could be extended to Zhao Yuanqing by Tan Zheng.

Tan Zheng disagreed.

"You don't have to come forward, I can solve it." Tan Zheng added, "I want to solve it myself."

"Tan Zheng, this is not a trivial matter. There should be no overlap between the two companies in normal operation. It is not necessary to fight for a moment. Stopping losses in time is the best thing to do." Ren Zhaoyuan's tone was much more serious, "I don't understand the business of the mall. Deep, but the power he can use must be greater than you, if you really maintain an antagonistic relationship, it will not benefit you."

If a person has a strong net worth and strong capital at a young age, it is either the accumulation of wealth over several generations, or the opportunity is very good.

In society, there are many of the former, such as Kang You, Zhao Yuanqing, Ren Zhaoyuan's friend Tongzhou Zhao Chen, and Tan Zheng's friend Jin Shiyan.

The latter, such as Tan Zheng.

Usually can't tell the difference. They all drive a million-dollar car, live in a house with an inch of land and a lot of money, go in and out of high-end places, and come into contact with people at the top of the pyramid. But if there is a conflict, it is almost inevitable for the latter to suffer.

Ren Zhaoyuan had learned from the very beginning when he mentioned divorce. They don't have to use sticks and ropes, they don't have to threaten and intimidate, but when they don't want to, a word can restrain the environment you live in. No matter how hard you try, you can't confront it head-on. desired result.

Therefore, the divorce dragged on for more than a year, or because Ren Zhaoyuan had learned a lot and gained wisdom, he didn't leak any news before the second appeal.

Ren Zhaoyuan suddenly thought that in order to let Zhao Yuanqing relax his vigilance, he just kept away from him and didn't say anything harshly. Maybe there are some reasons for this, which made Zhao Yuanqing feel that he has a chance to get back together until now, so he has such a strong hostility to Tan Zheng. .

"Brother Zhaoyuan."

Ren Zhaoyuan casually said "um".

"Are you worried about me?"

Ren Zhaoyuan returned to his senses after hearing the words, looked at Tan Zheng, and found that Tan Zheng's emotions had dissipated not long ago, and there was a slight smile in his eyes.

"Yes," Ren Zhaoyuan admitted frankly, "I appreciate you and regard you as a friend. I don't want bad things to happen to you, let alone because of me."

"You don't have to say anything later..."

Ren Zhaoyuan didn't hear clearly: "What?"

"It shouldn't be all because of you," Tan Zheng corrected his expression, "Actually, my company had contact with several new projects under his name before, but I unilaterally cut it off due to some reasons, which led some investment companies to think that the project had uncontrollable risks. , the investment promotion extension fund was postponed, and the best dividend period was missed."

Ren Zhaoyuan knew for the first time that there was still this layer, and subconsciously wanted to ask the reason, because Tan Zheng continued to speak and could not speak.

"But there was no breach of contract at the time, and he didn't want to trouble me because of his reputation. This time, he might just use the name of this matter to settle old accounts." Tan Zheng pushed the water, which was estimated to be about the temperature, to Ren Zhaoyuan's hand, "You I understand what I said, friction is inevitable in the business field, no one will fight back, you really don't need to deal with it, don't worry."

Ren Zhaoyuan recounted Tan Zheng's words in his heart, which seemed reasonable and reasonable, but he also felt that there was something to be scrutinized.

"and also."

Ren Zhaoyuan looked up at him: "What?"

"Don't apologize for other people and me, especially if it's because of yourself," Tan Zheng said seriously, "no matter what happens, you don't need to apologize to me."

Ren Zhaoyuan didn't know what to say for a while, so he picked up the cup and took a sip.

Has Tan Zheng been like this before?

It seems, and it seems not.

He wasn't feeling well last night, and he was not in a state. Only today did he realize that Tan Zheng had been a little different from last night.

I noticed it and couldn't tell.

It was as if Tan Zheng had discovered some way to restrain him, quietly observing his reaction and pulling his behavior, making him do what he didn't want to do before he knew it, and he didn't feel unhappy after doing it.

Going to the hospital is to let Tan Zheng stay behind to look after him, and now he is sent to the factory by Tan Zheng to look at the jewelry together.

Fortunately, there were no other problems. The master told Ren Zhaoyuan that he had found a great guy to help him. If it goes well, it can be completed by tomorrow night.

Tan Zheng just looked at himself and didn't say much. After Ren Zhaoyuan chatted with the masters, he found out that Tan Zheng was studying the pieces of jewelry that had already been made.

"What's wrong?" Ren Zhaoyuan asked.

"No, I just found that there are elements of branches on each piece. Some of them are not obvious, but if you look closely, they seem to be the same."

"Yes, there is "tree" in the teacher's name, and my wife is the fourth among siblings in the family, so each tree branch has four branches. "

Tan Zheng nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked a little uncertainly, "Is the teacher's surname Sun?"

Ren Zhaoyuan replied unexpectedly: "Yes, how do you know?"

"Mr. Sun Shuheng? I took his class in college, and I remember that he gave himself the nickname "Four Trees". "

"Yes, it's him," Ren Zhaoyuan couldn't help but be a little bit happy when he was surprised, "I remember that you studied economics and management, and you actually took his class?"

"Well, I happened to listen to one of his classes when I was in college, and I thought it was interesting. I will go later when the time is right."

It was a sunny day after the rain. In order to hide from the person Jin Shiyan sent to give him money, Tan Zheng randomly entered an empty classroom in the teaching building. Later, he fell asleep for some reason, and he heard a voice saying, "Ren Zhaoyuan. ".

At that time, it was as if the rhythmically beating heart was hit hard by the sudden weight, and then the rhythm lost and the breathing became chaotic. The whole person couldn't tell whether he was asleep or awake for more than ten minutes after he straightened up.

Probably because he kept staring at the podium with his back straight and his back straight, it was too conspicuous. Teacher Sun walked to the back while talking and asked him to get up to answer the question.

Of course Tan Zheng couldn't answer. When Teacher Sun asked him what his name was, he finally recovered and apologized and said that he was not a student of this major.

At that time, Teacher Sun asked him to sit down and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that my class would attract students from other majors. The student I mentioned just now, Ren Zhaoyuan, was not in his major, and he often came to audition for several years. So, classmates, you must know what you want to do at this age..."

Because of that sentence, Tan Zheng often went to Mr. Sun's class to sit in and listen to it for several years.

——

When he went to the hospital to deliver jewelry, Tan Zheng also followed, jokingly saving Ren Zhaoyuan a labor force.

That being said, Ren Zhaoyuan couldn't really let Tan Zheng carry the box.

After arriving, Tan Zheng put down the fruit he brought and stood beside a few people. Teacher Sun saw him as eye-catching, and his temperament was not like the other workers carrying jewelry. When asked, Tan Zheng only said that Ren Zhaoyuan's friend sent them over by the way. Introduce yourself more and don't talk deeply.

Time and space should be left to the teacher and the husband and wife.

After leaving the jewelry, a few people all came out. Tan Zheng watched for more than ten seconds outside the door. When he turned around, he couldn't see anything unusual, but his voice was a little low when he spoke.

"When is the teacher's surgery scheduled?"

"Tomorrow morning," Ren Zhaoyuan walked slowly into the distance with him, "It's all set in advance, as long as the teacher agrees, it can be done at any time."

Tan Zheng nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

He only accompanied Ren Zhaoyuan in the hospital and waited for someone to send the jewelry to the teacher's house. The next morning, he waited downstairs with Ren Zhaoyuan and waited with Ren Zhaoyuan outside the operating room.

The teacher's children are all married, and the children's older children are adults, and they are all guarded outside. Tan Zheng and Ren Zhaoyuan were waiting in a farther place, and the minutes passed without anyone speaking.

The bright red [in operation] light was still on, and the operating room door suddenly opened - "Family! The patient is in serious condition and needs to sign the critical illness notice!"

Ren Zhaoyuan instinctively took two steps forward and then stopped, his eyes fixed on the blank piece of paper, his breathing stopped.

He could hear a whimpering voice, and he could feel the weight in his eyes.

The teacher's grandson has always been strongly opposed to the matter of delaying the operation as soon as possible, and the children did not agree, but the teacher could not persuade the teacher and had to give up.

They all knew that this was what their father meant, and they couldn't blame others, and no one had ever blamed Ren Zhaoyuan.

But at this moment, the thought of "Is there no danger if the surgery is done earlier" is uncontrollably occupying everyone's mind.

Including Ren Zhaoyuan.

The critical illness notice was issued once and again.

Ren Zhaoyuan felt cold, as if he was not in a hospital. He was not on the corridor floor, but a thick layer of ice. The cold soaked up every inch and every inch through the soles of his feet.

He kept telling himself that he was doing the right thing, that he would be fine, that he was too late.

But what if?

The way the teacher was lecturing in the classroom, the way he reasoned with him, the way he was pulling him to walk, the way he patted him on the shoulder and smiled at him flashed one after another, and frame after frame was broken.

just in case..

Ren Zhaoyuan's nails sank deeply into his palm, and the gap between the floors was blurred and clear.

If anything happens, he is the accomplice of the god of death.

A strong warmth wrapped around the back of his hand, and bit by bit, he stretched out his clenched fist with extremely gentle and incomparably firm strength, and inserted warm fingers between his cold fingers.

Tan Zheng said nothing.

It wasn't until the dazzling red light went off and the words "successful operation" came out of the doctor's mouth that Tan Zheng firmly supported Ren Zhaoyuan, whose knees were softening for a moment, and whispered in his ear, "It's alright, it's alright. ..”

The teacher was pushed out, the mother was wiped away by the child, and the children and grandchildren walked around the transfer bed and followed the medical staff to the ward.

Ren Zhaoyuan stood there for a while, and finally regained his strength to stand firm. He lowered his head and saw that Tan Zheng's hand was still in his own, and his fingertips were already faintly purple due to poor blood circulation.

"Sorry," Ren Zhaoyuan quickly released, "I..."

"Everyone said you don't need to apologize to me," Tan Zheng shook his hands a few times to show him, "It's alright."

There were obvious marks on the base of his fingers and the back of his hand, which were left by Ren Zhaoyuan's strong clenching.

Ren Zhaoyuan noticed that his fingers were trembling slightly, and he couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "How do you feel? Does it hurt or numb?"

"It doesn't hurt or numb, it's really okay." Tan Zheng replied with a smile, and added, "Otherwise."

Ren Zhaoyuan looked at him: "What?"

Tan Zheng took a half step forward and hugged him gently.
