en't even had a boyfriend yet, it's so unfair." 。Lin Zhifei is a flirt, she's always nice to every boy who comes close, but none of them have caught her eye, so she hasn't even had a boyfriend yet. 。T...An apology
Cheng Zhimin doesn't know how to write the word "apologize" her whole life, how could she apologize She hung up the phone angrily, just a little bit arrogant.
Don't you think Zhuo Yuyan also said she wanted to cut off ties with her mother before Later, didn't she obediently come back and build a library for her and donate to Hope Elementary School How could blood ties be broken so easily Not letting her see her grandson doesn't mean he's not her grandson, does it
She was still looking forward to the upcoming Spring Festival, taking her two children back to Beijing to host a big feast. Although she didn't like Shu Tinglan, those two children made her feel good just thinking about them. They were steady winners compared to other families in this hutong. No one else's grandson looked as handsome as hers.
In short, retired life is wonderful. Besides building libraries and Hope Primary Schools one after another, taking care of my grandchildren completes the picture perfectly.
Here, dreams are being spun, even the nanny is making plans. She's calculating how many people to invite for a reunion dinner when the grandchildren return during Chinese New Year. She thinks it's best to make a list in advance and have Zhòuhóng review it before sending out invitations.
The nanny felt like she was dreaming. Had Yu An and Miss Shu agreed to let the child return to Beijing What pretext would they use to justify it It wouldn't be right, with a name like that... "Shu," yet not sharing your surname, Zhuo.
The nanny has worked at the Zhuo family for decades, and she only dared to keep her thoughts to herself and never spoke them out. Therefore, her inner world was incredibly rich. Just as she was thinking, the landline rang.
Upon hearing the other person's introduction, his voice immediately became enthusiastic.
"Hello, Principal Xue. Hello. Are you looking for Teacher Cheng Please wait a moment."
The call was from President Xue of Huada University. Huada's library, built in the name of Cheng Zimin, is the first university library constructed at such a fast pace. In just a few months, the external structure has been completed. Now, the interior decoration of the library is about to begin. However, today the project manager responsible for the entire library found President Xue requesting construction funds.
Because the initial construction funds were only paid for the main structure of the library, funds for later interior decoration and other expenses have not yet been allocated, so they are being paid in installments.
"Teacher Cheng, I'm afraid you need to finalize the payment issue as soon as possible. Lunar New Year is coming up soon. If the construction funds aren't in place, these workers are very likely to switch jobs after the new year and won't come back here. As you know, construction workers are in high demand now, and it's difficult to find good ones."
Principal Xue also relayed the project leader's words to Cheng Zhimin.
Cheng Zhimin was taken aback. She never handled the engineering fund issues; it was always Zhuoyuan Technology's finance department that contacted the school. They would inform them how much was needed, and Zhuoyuan Technology would transfer the funds directly.
"How did you get here Lao Xue, tell the project manager to ask Zhuo Yuan Technology's finance department for the engineering fee."
Principal Xue is also helpless.
“The project manager contacted Zhuoyuan's finance department according to the contract. Finance said there was a regulation that all future payments must be personally signed by President Zhu before being released, asking him to contact President Zhu directly. But the project manager didn't have President Zhu's contact information. The finance department also couldn't provide it conveniently. Now the construction site is stuck like this, and they couldn't find me, so I came to you.”
"I understand, I'll contact you later." Cheng Zhimin was so angry that her hands were shaking, but she remained calm in front of Principal Xue and hung up the phone.
As soon as she hung up the phone, Cheng Zhimin shouted at the nanny.
“What on earth is Zhuo Yu’an trying to do”
The nanny's hand trembled as she was doing housework, almost dropping the delicate blue-and-white porcelain. After carefully putting it down, she turned to see Teacher Cheng's face ashen with anger. She had gotten used to this, so she didn't say anything and quickly went to get her blood pressure medication.
Teacher Cheng has such a bad temper, I'm afraid one day his blood vessels will burst.
Cheng Zhimin became even angrier when she saw the nurse silently handing her the blood pressure medication. She snatched it away and refused to take it.
“My blood pressure is normal. What do you think this Zhuo Yuan wants to do He suddenly stopped paying the construction money, leaving me unable to pay”
Actually, she knew all along that the other party had made it very clear before: for her to go to Senzhou and personally apologize to Shu Tinglan and the children.
The real son, he really is. Step by step, he set up traps to lure her in.
"Just say how kind she was back then, to come back and donate the library and Hope Elementary School in her name, giving her all the glory she wanted, satisfying all her vanity, putting her on the highest pedestal. That gave her enough leverage to threaten her."
He knew best what she cared about, elevating her to the highest point and leaving her in a difficult situation.
If she doesn't go to Senzhou and apologize to Shu Tinglan, he will stop paying for the library project. If the library, donated in her name, becomes a half-finished project, she will be the laughingstock of everyone for life. The unfinished library will forever shame her.
This biological son is truly ruthless towards his own mother.
But to have Cheng Zhimin go apologize to Shu Tinglan and the children, that would be tantamount to killing her. How could her proud head ever bow to someone surnamed Shu
No, absolutely not an apology.
She even calculated, using her own money to build the library, so the next day she went straight to Hua University to discuss the engineering costs with President Xue.
The project manager also brought along cost engineers, designers, and finance personnel to calculate the subsequent expenses. It only includes the interior decoration of the library, excluding the costs of purchasing books, desks, bookcases, and various advanced equipment later on. A rough estimate would be tens of millions.
The reason is simple, these design drawings were all chosen by Cheng Zhimin herself back then. Anyway, it was Zhu Yu'an's money being spent, so they were all selected at the highest standard. Her goal was to create the most advanced and resource-rich library in China.
Now that I've calculated the cost, I'm flabbergasted.
How could she possibly have millions of savings While she may have a bad temper, she has always been hardworking and dedicated at her job. She is also known for her integrity and honesty. Even when Zhu Hong was young and made mistakes, he was severely reprimanded by the elder. Since then, he has never taken a penny that wasn't rightfully his. The little money she carries in her pocket is barely enough to cover her living expenses and retirement.
Right now, I'm sitting in Principal Xue's office, waiting for them to report the price, my back is sweating cold, but I am keeping a straight face and not giving anything away.
"I understand. Prepare a detailed list for me, and I'll have Zuo Yuan Technology's finance department transfer the funds." He maintained his composure and professionalism in front of others, displaying all the necessary presence and responsibility.
"Okay, we'll send it to your email right away. Now, Teacher Cheng, about when can you transfer the construction funds I need to let the workers know." The project leader was also putting pressure on him, needing a specific date. He was most afraid of these officials giving him empty words and delaying things.
Cheng Zhimin's face turned cold, and she said sternly.
"Don't worry, I, Cheng Zhimin, always keep my word. I won't shortchange you a single penny of what you're owed."
She said, then grabbed her bag and stormed off, never having clearly discussed the payment date with the project manager or Principal Xue. She'd never been chased like this for money before in her life; it would be so embarrassing if word got out.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. I called Zhuo Yunan and gave him a piece of my mind.
“What do you mean Pay the contractor now.”
"Zuo Yu'an's voice came coldly: "You go to finance, I don't care about these small matters."
