Almost dead

The editor-in-chief of the newspaper received Gu Yan in his office.

The editor-in-chief is named Wang Hong. He is in his forties and a heavy smoker. There is a smell of tobacco oil in his office.

Gu Yan took the agreement and read it again and again. In fact, the agreement was very simple, just the time and price. The only difference from Gu Yan's previous request was that if additional editions were involved in the future, the price of each edition would be

It needs to be increased by 20%, which means that the price that originally cost 3,000 yuan in the first quarter has increased to 3,600 yuan.

It was within Gu Yan's expectations.

But Gu Yan still had to bargain with Wang Hong, "It's up to the leaders to raise the salary by 10%. You just serve the people. It will be beneficial to you to have a special edition, right?"

"Mr. Gu -" Wang Hong's voice sounded a little girly, "We all have to eat. How about this? Don't you have a company? I will arrange for reporters to conduct two exclusive interviews with you to promote it to you."

"Two issues are too few, four issues."

"Hey, are you buying cabbage at the vegetable market?" Wang Hong pretended to refuse, and then said, "It's okay to give away four installments, but I can't change the price."

"Yeah," Gu Yan said deliberately, "did I underprice my counteroffer?"

"Okay, Mr. Gu, this is a big loss. I'd better ask Li Hong to serve you."

"OK."

Wang Hong signed the agreement first, and Gu Yan also signed it.

Gu Yan brought Liu Xue over, Liu Xue stamped it, and then went to pay the money. Li Hong introduced her to the contact person.

Wang Hong's office smelled of cigarette smoke, which made Gu Yan feel nauseous. Since there was nothing going on here, she went to the car outside to wait for Liu Xue.

Gu Yan parked the car under the shade of a tree. Afraid of the heat of driving, she opened the car door first. She went to the next door to buy an ice cream and two bottles of soda. She came back and leaned here to eat while waiting for Liu Xue.

Liu Xue was okay. The little girl was very motivated. Gu Yan thought that when things got more busy in the future, she would ask Ah Qing to give her a salary increase or a promotion, but everyone's salary should be increased.

Liu Xue quickly came back with the signed agreement, "Mr. Gu, the agreement is signed."

"Have you contacted the contact person?" Gu Yan handed over the ice soda, "Drink some soda."

"Thank you, Mr. Gu. We've already contacted you. We can type and print it as soon as the day after tomorrow. The contact person told us to sort it out first and she'll come over tomorrow."

"Okay, I'm really too busy. Let's talk to your leader before hiring someone."

The leader Gu Yan refers to is "Ah Qing". Under his management this year, the dispatch center's turnover has been increasing month by month. The young man is quite good.

"Okay, Mr. Gu."

Gu Yan drove back and smoothed it out with Liu Xue. It took them an entire afternoon to sort it out before they were almost done.

Before she went back, Wang Yaqin called.

The fast food restaurant has installed a phone. It originally cost two to three thousand yuan to install a phone, but this year the telecommunications bureau has a policy that stores can install a phone for five hundred yuan. For the sake of convenience, Gu Yan installed it without hesitation.

.

"Yanyan, a girl named Qian Mengyao has come and wants to see you."

Qian Mengyao?

What is she here to do?

Gu Yan thought for a moment and said, "I'll go back right away. Please ask her to wait for me."

"good."

Fortunately, things at the dispatch center have been sorted out for the time being. Gu Yan plans to come over again tomorrow and then go back.

It was almost dinner time and the fast food restaurant was very busy. What surprised Gu Yan was that Qian Mengyao put on the waiter's apron and helped clear the table.

"Sister Wang, who asked her to do it?"

Wang Yaqin was helpless, "Do you think I can let her do this? She wants to do it herself, and there's nothing she can do to stop her."

"Okay, Sister Wang, please help me call her out. I'll wait for her at the door." Gu Yan went to open the freezer again, took a bottle of ice soda, and opened it.

Wang Yaqin said to her, "Don't drink soda all the time, or you may get a stomachache if you drink it for a long time."

"The smell of cigarette smoke in the newspaper office today made me feel sick and sick. I'll drink something cold to suppress it." Gu Yan said and went out.

I don’t know if those who love to smoke will dislike their own smelly bodies.

After a while, Qian Mengyao also came out. Today is different from the past. Qian Mengyao is not as domineering as she was when she was looking for trouble last time. She has a slightly indifferent expression with a little bit of embarrassment.

Qian Mengyao's clothes are still good, a short-sleeved red and white plaid round-neck shirt, a black knee-length skirt, black leather sandals, and small white socks. Ordinary children can't easily wear such good clothes.

clothing.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Gu Yan had no choice but to say, "What's the matter with you coming to see me today?"

"My parents are divorced, and my mother has cancer and has taken medical leave." Qian Mengyao raised her chin slightly, "I'm not here to be miserable, I just want to find a job, because I need to be paid on a daily basis.

So it’s not easy to find.”

Gu Yan was silent for a moment, "Does your mother know that you are here?"

Qian Mengyao pursed her lips and said, "She doesn't know."

"Where is she now?"

"Nearly dead."

When Gu Yan heard Qian Mengyao's words, her heart sank and she thought to herself, what kind of child is this? He actually said that about his mother.

However, like mother, like daughter, Qian Mengyao's character is really similar to Ye Hua's, stubborn, sharp and stubborn.

Gu Yan said, "My wife said that if you come to us for help, we will lend a hand, so there is no problem in providing you with a job."

"You already know?" Qian Mengyao was naturally surprised, "When did you know it?"

"Did you miss two yuan when you went to the maternal and child care department to get the medicine? I've only seen you once, so I'm not sure it was you."

Qian Mengyao murmured, "It turns out you gave me the money."

"It's not because that person is you or I that we asked someone to send money there. Of course, if there is anything else we need to do, we will be obliged to do so."

Qian Mengyao bit her lip and looked at Gu Yan, and said slowly, "Except for my mother's funeral, which I can't handle after she dies, I can do everything else."

Gu Yan said silently, "How much does your mother need to take medicine every day?"

"Just take painkillers, which are very cheap." Qian Mengyao said forcefully, "I want to earn more money and give her some nutritional injections so that I can live one more day."

Gu Yan almost couldn't hold back her tears.

Gu Yan sighed, "Let her be hospitalized and we'll pay for it. If she doesn't want to accept it, just find any reason."

Qian Mengyao opened her eyes, her eye circles obviously red, "She doesn't need it."

Under such circumstances, no matter how hateful Ye Hua was, he should not mention the past when he is about to die.

Gu Yan said seriously, "Okay, we respect your decision, but I hope that one day you will not regret not seizing the opportunity to let your mother leave in peace."
