Thirty-four. Accidents
Accidents always come very suddenly, and when you are not on guard, you will be confused.
--------
I forgot to say that this year's annual meeting was held in a hotel. The boss invited many customers to come, and the gifts I had to prepare almost crushed me.
First, there is a performance walk, a sound test, and then there are props and gifts to use for the evening.
Fortunately, there were several enthusiastic colleagues who helped me. The staff in the Human Resources Department were pitifully small, and Gu Akang was also busy with other things and had no time to take care of me.
"Dear guests, good evening, all the family members!" At 5:30 pm, the annual meeting began and the host had already taken the stage.
I have to say that I was originally asked to play a guest role, but later because there were too many people, the boss invited his friend to serve as the host, so I felt much more relaxed.
Logistics should be in the backstage.
"Xiaoping, I'll go to the front to take a photo later. Pay attention to what you need to pay attention to."
Gu Akang came over to speak with my ears. The scene was noisy, "Well, I got it, you go."
The big eyes used the ignite volt and scanned the surroundings. The hotel waiter stood on both sides, so he didn't have to worry about serving tea and water, but the guests coming and going were a little unfamiliar.
There was a big table and a red book at the door. In order to ensure that everyone entering the venue safely must sign and take photos.
"Please sign at the door and then collect the ticket." The guests who came one after another walked into the venue step by step.
The lighting and music on the scene were good, and dozens of people were filled with crowds.
"The annual annual meeting feast is about to begin. Please warmly welcome our chairman to come to the stage to deliver a New Year speech to everyone!"
There was endless applause.
The chairman is our boss. It is amazing to have become a director of the company at a young age, and it seems to be the president of a new generation.
"I'm very happy that we'll get together again tonight. First of all, we welcome everyone here and wish you a happy New Year..."
After the chairman delivered a speech of 20, the performance also began. The opening was a dance arranged by young ladies, which was from the marketing department. It was full of vitality and dazzling lights.
After more than a minute, the audience immediately became excited. The host looked so eloquent that he seemed to be an experienced person.
Fortunately, I didn't have to go up, otherwise I would definitely laugh. "The lottery is about to start, Xiaoping, hurry up and prepare." I was so busy that I didn't know what to do. I used to see others busy, but now it's my turn to realize that it was not that easy.
The first round of lucky prizes has begun!
"The winner of the lucky prize is..." There are 60 lucky prizes in total, and they were drawn in two times. I took the lottery box and the leader smiled and drew them one by one. The leaders all came on stage happily and presented the prizes in order.
Next are other more exciting programs, sketches, dances, songs, and game sessions, which will draw third prizes, second prizes, and first prizes. This year there will be a special prize.
The party was very successful until the end of 8:30 pm. In the end, the boss and several clients were left to drink and sing happily.
Gu Akang and Lao Zhang, I cleaned up the work after work together, "These things are going to be put back into the unit." Lao Zhang called the driver to help move things.
The phone kept vibrating, and I had no time to take care of it. I didn't take it out until everything was sorted out and the person got in the car. It was my mother's phone number.
He quickly called back, "Hey, mom, I was there just now..."
"You finally answered the phone. I know that you have to check it out today's annual meeting. Something happened to your dad..."
My heart trembled, and the phone in my hand almost fell off. I hurriedly got out of the car. The person was so tired that he ran to the hospital out of breath.
"Miss Xiaoping, don't be anxious, slow down." Thanks to his colleague Kobayashi, who had his own car. When he heard that I wanted to take a taxi, he volunteered to take me to the hospital.
"Thank you, Kobayashi, I'm in. Go back. Slow down the road, goodbye." He rushed inside without stopping, and met his mother who was waiting for me anxiously at the door.
"Mom, what's wrong with Dad?"
"He was hit by a car, but fortunately it wasn't too serious, otherwise it would be in trouble."
"Where is that person?"
"Inside."
When I arrived at the ward, my father closed his eyes and had a white cloth strip tied to his head, "Dad, are you okay?"
"Xiaoping!" Dad opened his eyes, shouted listlessly, and blinked at me.
"How could this happen?"
"You are the family members of the person who was involved in the accident. I am the police. Please deal with me."
"Xiaoping, I dare not go." It was almost ten o'clock in the evening.
"Mom, I'll go, you'll be here to accompany your dad. By the way, do grandparents know?"
"Before I had time to tell them."
"Don't talk about it for now, I'm going to talk about it tomorrow."
"Please, I'll follow you." Then I went to the police station with the police. The car that caused the accident did not run away, but his attitude was not good.
"Mr. Police, I really didn't mean it, and he was walking blindly at night. "The man looked a little older last year.
"No one said you were intentional and couldn't go out at night? Aren't you driving at night? "The police are not vegetarians, they are honest and strict.
"The family is here, I suggest you either have a private chat. Anyway, the person is not too serious, but there are some mild concussions and external skin injuries. You need to be hospitalized for several days."
When another policeman saw me, he told me the whole story. It turned out that my father was going home from get off work at night. Because he was a little confused, he walked to the street on the side of the road. Unfortunately, a car drove over and collided like this.
The police meant that my father had gone the wrong way, and the responsibility was not all in the car, but the law stipulates that the safety of the walking crowd should be protected.
"You are his daughter, you are your father and he doesn't look at the road when he walks." The man was suddenly excited.
"Okay, uncle, I know you have your reasons, but I want to say that my dad is in the hospital now, and it would be best if he is not injured. We will not quarrel with you, as long as you are responsible for the medical expenses."
"But I'm very unfair." Men obviously don't want to.
"You are wronged, but fortunately they were just slightly injured. If you miss your arms and legs, wouldn't you cry to death?"
The man wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back because of the police's rolling eyes. I didn't say much to him. Such people are not virtuous. Finally, with the help of the police, we reached an agreement. Because my father took the wrong path, he was responsible, but because he was not clear at night, the road conditions were wrong.
So the police asked him to be responsible for medical expenses and nutrition expenses, and no more money was raised as for the loss of work.
I know it's my family to suffer a loss, so I would rather not have the money as long as my father is healthy.
The man walked out of the police station and was still cursing, as if he was very unwilling to give up. I shook my head helplessly. I don’t want to say anything more to such a person.
It was already twelve o'clock in the middle of the night when my mother called and a message from him, Li Mingyu.
My mother told me to solve the problem and go home first. I went to change her tomorrow morning. I had no choice but tonight for the New Year meeting. The company must have something to do tomorrow. I sent a message to Gu Akang in advance. He was not sleeping yet. He understood me very much, so he reassured me that he would do everything.
If a colleague is like this, what else should I ask for?
Chapter completed!
