The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 169 Epilogue (Part ) He can’t stop me from running towards a better life, right?

"Do you remember what I told you last time? You actually have a chance to defeat Lu Jie. You actually have a chance to prove to Xie Meilan that his decision to abandon you was a mistake!"

"Don't you want to prove it? Don't you just want to watch your wife who you have loved for ten years betray you and live with Lu Jie?"

"Beijing is so small, and you never know when you'll see a commercial photo of Xie Meilan and Lu Jie standing together when you scroll through your phone."

"Think about how much you paid for Xie Meilan's mother's illness. You even borrowed money for her mother's cemetery. Aren't you devoted enough to her and gave her everything you have?"

"And your children, your family... everything is gone!"

……

As he drank too much last night, Shen Lei slept until noon. After hurriedly calling the section chief to explain, he rushed to work.

But on his way to work, his mind was full of what Na Jun said last night.

Although Na Jun did not specifically choose words that had obvious hints and instigations, he actually said some other words that could be considered to comfort Shen Lei, but now Shen Lei only remembers these words he said.

Shen Lei felt that Na Jun said these words in the hope that he could cheer up, not to make him hate and be hostile to Lu Jie and Xie Meilan.

But these words were like magic music, echoing in his mind all the time.

And some inexplicable seeds grew in his heart.

……

Also, because he went to work too late, he was not blocked by Lu Jie on the road like in the original drama, and was not humiliated by the other party.

And this morning, Lu Jie, who was waiting alone on Shen Lei's way to work, naturally would not be willing to give up.

So I called Shen Lei in the afternoon.

At this time, Shen Lei, who was at work, was not only in a daze, but also had a dull look from time to time, which made the section chief who came to inspect frown frequently.

In fact, he still values ​​this subordinate who has worked diligently in the archives department for five years and has mastered the file repair technology.

It is obvious that Shen Lei must have had problems at home, and as an old leader he should pay more attention to him.

"Ding Ding Ding!"

Shen Lei's phone rang. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, he had no intention of answering it. However, the section chief saw this and said directly:

"Shen Lei, why don't you answer the phone? Go to the corridor."

Shen Lei hesitated for a moment, then picked up his phone and walked out.

Just as he answered the phone, the voice from the other end came over.

"Shen Lei? I'm Lu Jie!"

"..."

Shen Lei's breathing subconsciously became rapid.

As expected, Lu Jie said on the phone what he should have said in person in the morning.

First, he threatened that as long as Shen Lei signed the divorce agreement, he would give Shen Lei a large sum of money.

Then comes the taunting:

"A woman who follows a man must have some hope, right? What do you have? A rented house of about 30 square meters and a broken electric car? A decent job, but can you support yourself? You don't even dare to eat takeout every day, right? Young girls who have just graduated now won't fall for your tricks! Of course, being poor is not your problem, but if you are still dragging down your wife without money, then you are not a man at all! I tell you, Xie Meilan is worthy of you and has wasted more than ten years of her youth on you!"

"I'm telling you, if you're a man, just sign the agreement and save some dignity for yourself. Of course, you can also choose to sue me. I'll hire the best lawyer for him..."

The love rival's hurtful words made Shen Lei, who was already accumulating anger, yell directly into his phone and then hung up the call in anger.

At this moment, the words that Na Jun had said before emerged in his mind again, as if they were waiting for Lu Jie to say these words to take effect.

The noise Shen Lei made in the corridor just now also attracted some colleagues to stick their heads out.

At this time, the section chief came over and drove back the onlookers, and then stopped Shen Lei, who had a painful look on his face.

Normally speaking, if a colleague who has worked in the system for many years, has a mild temper and performs well, suddenly changes his temperament, the leader will definitely show concern first. As for the behavior of scolding the other party for delaying work in this situation like in the original drama... it is really hard to understand.

In short, this section chief who is very optimistic about Shen Lei now feels that the other party needs his concern first.

"Shen Lei, if you have any difficulties, please tell me. Your performance over the years is not only seen by me, but also by the director..."

……

"Juanjuan, do you think Shen Lei will really divorce Xie Meilan this time?"

In the evening, when Na Jun got off work, Li Xiaoyue had already prepared dinner, and the two talked about this topic again while eating.

Na Jun thought about it and shook his head, "I don't know. Whether he gets a divorce or not is entirely up to him, and how he gets a divorce is also entirely up to him."

Li Xiaoyue nodded, and then asked with some concern:
"I guess my brother and sister-in-law don't know about this? Should I tell them?"

Upon hearing this, Na Jun looked at his girlfriend in surprise.

"Ah? Didn't you tell me? I already told you when I got off work just now!"

"..."

Li Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, then said unhappily: "I thought you wouldn't let me tell anyone?"

"Why shouldn't I let you say it? He's about to get a divorce. Isn't it normal to ask all the aunts and uncles to persuade him about this?"

"..."

Li Xiaoyue was choked by what the bastard said, and then she said angrily: "Looking at the way you watched the show before, haven't you always supported their divorce? Aren't you afraid that they won't get divorced if you tell others about it?"

Na Jun smiled and said, "That's wrong. Support is support, persuasion is persuasion. Since I don't think they can continue to be together, why should I be afraid of others' persuasion?"

After a pause, he took a bite of the dish and added to his pouting girlfriend with a smile:
"Comrade Xiaoyue, to watch a show you need to be able to advance and retreat, and have a very flexible stance."

"..."

Li Xiaoyue didn't want to talk about this with him anymore. The way that bastard spoke was too mean.

So she changed the subject and said, "My sister-in-law knows that we are going to renovate our house, and today she asked us if we would like to help find a decorator. She knows someone well."

"Okay, let's go meet her on the weekend." Na Jun nodded, and then he thought that his brother's family didn't lose 800,000 yuan out of thin air, and he didn't know whether his sister-in-law Shen Lin would go to sell braised food again.

……

Shen Lin has not yet started selling braised food. She is currently working in a job with a monthly salary of 6,000 yuan.

However, she was not doing well in this job.

In the few days since she joined the company, she has established good relationships with several colleagues in the Human Resources Department. However, before she could even clock in for work, Mr. Jia, the brother-in-law of the company boss, started to make trouble.

Mr. Jia harasses the human resources director Hu Haili at every turn, and Hu Haili tries every means to avoid him every day.

Hu Haili went on a blind date this afternoon. When President Jia failed to take advantage of her, he took his anger out on Shen Lin, who was watching the fun, and asked her to finish the employee handbook today.

When it was time to get off work in the evening, Hu Haili and another colleague came back to help Shen Lin make the employee handbook. As a result, Mr. Jia smelled the smell and continued to harass Hu Haili. Then, while Shen Lin was helping, he was pushed by Mr. Jia and hit his waist. Although it was not a serious matter, everyone was scared.

President Jia didn't dare to continue harassing Hu Haili, nor did he dare to let Shen Lin work overtime.

Just as Shen Lin was holding her waist and leaving get off work, she suddenly learned from Na Jun that Xie Meilan was divorcing her brother.

This is another shocking news. Last time she wanted to have an abortion, and this time she wants a divorce. How can she live like this?

I immediately gave up taking the subway and took a taxi home.

On his way home, he called his younger brother and learned the exact news from his brother's dull voice.

"Sister, Meilan wants to divorce me, and I didn't agree before."

"That's good that you didn't agree. That's good that you didn't agree. If you have anything to say, just sit down and talk it out." Shen Lin breathed a sigh of relief while sitting in the taxi, but then she realized something was wrong.

"What do you mean you didn't agree to it before?" "I just agreed to it."

……

The following time was like a rush. Shen Lin persuaded again and again, and even dragged her husband Na Wei to persuade Shen Lei and Xie Meilan.

However, Xie Meilan had already made up her mind. She even moved her luggage to Lu Jie's big house. Does she have to pack it back again?
That’s too tiring!
So Xie Meilan, who didn't want to be too tired, spoke directly from her heart when facing Shen Lin's earnest advice again.

"You are now advising me to go back and live a peaceful life with Shen Lei, which is just advising me to suffer! You have a big house to live in, a husband who loves you, a BMW to drive, and a big diamond ring to wear, so of course it's easy for you to talk without any pain in your waist!"

Xie Meilan's words made Shen Lin silent, and then Shen Lin said angrily:
"So you want to abandon Lei Lei just for Lu Jie's money? You are cheating on your wife!"

Since the situation is irreversible, both sides have begun to fall out.

"Watch your mouth, Mr. Lu and I are just colleagues! My divorce from Shen Lei has nothing to do with anyone else!"

"Nothing to do with it? How can you say such a thing? My brother is such a kind and excellent person. If it wasn't for someone else, would you divorce him?"

"Kind and excellent? I'm sorry, he just doesn't have money and can't make me feel safe. I've been married to him for so many years, and I don't want to live with him in such a miserable way for the rest of my life!"

This mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who could sit together and eat peacefully not long ago, were now arguing with red faces.

This made Na Wei, who had made room for them to enjoy the scenery, rush in and separate the two.

At the end, Xie Meilan said:
"He can't stop me from running towards a better life, can he?"

……

The next day, Xie Meilan, who had already signed the divorce agreement, walked into the hospital. Although she felt that something was wrong with her future ex-husband when she saw him just now, she didn't take it to heart.

Perhaps even at this moment, this naive ex-husband-to-be will not really change.

After five years of marriage, she has already seen through him.

Now, Xie Meilan has to take the first step for her new life, which is to completely eliminate all traces of Shen Lei, such as the baby in her belly.

She is only two months pregnant now, and if she delays any further it will probably be inconvenient to have an abortion.

This should have been done before, and it has been delayed for a long time, but fortunately, there is still time.

She did not tell Lu Jie that she came to the hospital for an abortion today. She planned to tell him as a surprise after she was completely clean.

"Boss Lu, I have a surprise for you in a few days."

Lying on the hospital bed, Xie Meilan edited this message and sent it to Lu Jie, but unfortunately she never received a response from him, so she could only enter the operating room with regret.

At this time, Lu Jie, who was worried about Xie Meilan giving him a surprise, was a little annoyed in his office.

For some reason, Lu Jie discovered these days that the audit department was being a bit "favorable" to his company, often blocking things here and requiring new materials there.

As a result, some of his subsequent cooperation plans were also delayed.

What is delayed is not just time. Once it does not match the planned time, what is delayed is money.

As for those audit materials, he didn’t even know why they needed to be audited. Which company is clean these days?
Some things may be minor, but once they are weighed, they are no longer minor!

Especially for a financial investment company like his, such a blockage is really troublesome.

There are many differences between financial investment and industrial companies. In some aspects, they are similar, but financial investment has one more obvious characteristic.

That is, compared with real industries, they are more adept at exploring legal loopholes, especially in today's era of comprehensive Internet empowerment. It can even be said that every large Internet or financial investment company is playing a cat-and-mouse game with the laws of various countries.

To put it in a broader sense, it is a collision between capital and the state.

Of course, Lujie's company is not that powerful. It is just an ordinary investor. Its investment director is someone like Xie Meilan. How good can you expect it to be?
But because of this, his company can't withstand the turmoil.

The funds invested by investment companies are generally operated in the form of funds, and the process is the so-called fundraising, investment, management and exit.

Fund raising, investment projects, post-investment management, and capital exit, these stage flows that often involve raising large amounts of funds can be very troublesome once they encounter an audit.

Just like Na Jun’s previous life’s Hongye Capital, a company whose size is so much bigger than Lu Jie, a company invested by Chuangyu Wealth, it would be a headache if it were audited.

So when he suddenly encountered an audit, Lu Jie really wanted to vomit blood. He was able to escape danger only because of the help of other partners. However, it is normal for them to take a little longer to go through the process.

Lu Jie was somewhat helpless, but this caused dissatisfaction among other partners.

Because they have news that this trouble came suddenly, what does that mean? Someone above is looking for trouble.

Lu Jie is a partner and vice president of Chuangyu Wealth Investment Company. He handles general affairs and is the person who is contacted when problems arise.

But he thought about it for a long time and couldn't remember how he had offended the people above him.

If we insist on saying that he is within the system, the only one who can be considered as Wu Dalang is Shen Lei. But he is just a clerk in the archives department, not even an official. How could he have such ability?
If Shen Lei was not a clerk but a section chief, Lu Jie would not treat him with the same attitude as before.

And even if he is the head of the archives department, he doesn't need to pay any attention to him.

Could it be that Shen Lei, a small clerk, not only has the connections with the section chief and the director, but can also influence the leader in charge of auditing through the director in charge of archives?

He didn't believe that Shen Lei had this ability. Did Shen Lei have any special skills?
Tsk...how is that possible!

It couldn't be that the leader happened to know that he seduced Shen Lei's wife and destroyed the family, and decided to help his comrade in the same company to abuse his power a little, right?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
It is even more impossible that Shen Lei's direct leader not only values ​​him but also sympathizes with him and is dissatisfied with his experience. Therefore, when he was drinking tea with the leader of the audit department, he casually said "We must not let our comrades in the company feel disappointed", and then he was treated willfully, right?

It should be... Impossible!
Even though I, Lu Jie, have a dirty back, dirty accounts, and dirty personal ethics, I am still a good man and a good citizen. How could anything happen to me?
Shen Lei’s wife is his to take!

……

On the weekend, Na Jun went shopping with his girlfriend.

Li Xiaoyue looked at the WeChat group "Shen Qi's Family" on her phone and felt a little sad.

"Juanjuan, I just realized that Xie Meilan has left the group."

Na Jun put his hand on Li Xiaoyue's shoulder, wearing a pair of sunglasses and said arrogantly:

"This is normal. It's so embarrassing to stay in the group!"

Li Xiaoyue shook her head, put away her phone, put her arm around her boyfriend's waist and said as they walked:

"Alas, what a pity. I don't know if Xie Meilan is going to marry Lu Jie soon."

"Get married? Does Lu Jie want to go to jail?"

"Ah? What do you mean?" Li Xiaoyue looked up at her boyfriend in surprise, "Why do you have to go to jail for marriage?"

Na Jun smiled and said, "Because Lu Jie is married!"

"Huh?" Li Xiaoyue was a little confused. "Married? Isn't he divorced? Xie Meilan told me that when I chatted with her privately before."

Hearing this, Na Jun looked down at his girlfriend, put on his sunglasses and said in surprise:
"That's not right. The information I found out is that he is not divorced. His wife is just working in America with the child."

"You checked?"

Na Jun nodded. He naturally had his own way to find out this kind of information. The other party was not a confidential person in some confidential unit. They were all in the financial field. How could he not have a way?

After putting on his sunglasses, Na Jun smiled and hugged his girlfriend and said:

"Not only did I find out, I also called his wife to invite her back to send her blessings to him and Xie Meilan!"

"..."

"I'm a boy who likes romantic love stories. What I hate most is to see couples in love not getting everyone's blessing..."

"..."

"They don't need to thank me, I'm just a kind person passing by."

I originally wanted to finish writing it in one go, but today, um... I watched a National Day short drama that was even more outrageous than "749 Bureau", and I spent some of my energy and writing on it, which made me a little unstable, so I couldn't finish it in one go...
