Chu Jin must be exhausted physically and mentally after eating this meal. Judging from his poor appetite, Xiang Xin kept her usual smile and her cute and innocent appearance made me want to vomit. But life is such a coincidence. At this time Xuanxuan just called.
I turned on the speakerphone very considerately, and Xuanxuan's crisp voice immediately came out of the phone: "Yanyan!! I met a handsome guy again today!!"
With a god-like assist, I glanced at Chu Jin's face, which was already black as coal. I asked gently: "Really? Are there so many handsome guys over there?"
"Yes, yes, I am climbing a mountain now. I heard that the scenery at the top of the mountain overlooking the town at the foot of the mountain is particularly beautiful at night. I want to go to dinner with him after we come down from the mountain. He asked me to treat him." Xuanxuan didn't know Chu Jin at all. I was also listening to her talk. The happier she spoke, the uglier Chu Jin's face became. As for me, of course, the happier I was.
"Then you have to pay attention to your own safety. There are a lot of bad guys now. Don't get kidnapped." I told him. This was not because I wanted to scare Chu Jin, but because I sincerely told Xuanxuan to pay attention to safety.
Xuanxuan replied briskly: "I know, I haven't encountered any dangers in Haicheng, so I'm not afraid."
That's true, Xuanxuan and I have encountered enough dangers, and she is brave and careful, so we really don't need to worry too much.
After a brief chat, Qiao Wan suddenly joined in and said, "Xuanxuan, Chu Jin is here too. Do you want to chat with him?"
As soon as these words came out, there was no sound from Xuanxuan's side. Only the wind could be heard blowing. The wind on the mountain must be quite strong. At this time, a man's voice came from the other end of the phone: " What's wrong?"
"It's okay," Xuanxuan said to the man, and then said to Qiao Wan: "Aunt Wan, I'm going to climb the mountain first, and I'll come back to Haicheng to play with you later!"
After saying that, Xuanxuan hung up the phone. I knew she didn't want to mention Chu Jin, nor did she want to talk to Chu Jin. Qiao Wan glanced at Chu Jin meaningfully, with a slight smile on her face: "Then let's continue eating. .”
What else can Chu Jin eat? Liang Sheng prepared some wine, Chu Jin poured a glass of stronger white wine and drank it, as if he was ready to drink away his sorrows. Liang Sheng and Qin Zhuren poured a glass of red wine, and both chose to watch the fire from the other side, in front of It seemed that no one had anything to say to Xiang Xin, let alone explain it.
Xiang Xin didn't seem to take Xuanxuan's call seriously, nor did she take Chu Jin's upset seriously. She was eating and would praise the taste from time to time. I wondered if she really liked Chu Jin? Can you like someone so much that you don't feel jealous at all? Even Wei Lan couldn't do it, but Xiang Xin seemed very calm and casual.
Everyone except Xiang Xin had a tasteless meal. Chu Jin was so drunk that he lay down directly on the sofa. Xiang Xin couldn't help Chu Jin in the end. She looked at Liang Sheng and Qin. Zhu Ren probably meant that he wanted Liang Sheng and Qin Zhuren to help him get Chu Jin downstairs and into the car. Qin Zhuren said, "Or, let Chu Jin sleep with you first, and Xiang Xin will be alone." I can’t handle him either.”
"Yeah, that's fine." Liang Sheng shrugged nonchalantly.
"Then it's Mr. Liang's fault." Xiang Xin's delicate face like a Barbie doll was full of smiles. She looked very sweet and well-behaved. In the end, Qin Zhuren sent Xiang Xin back. He was disgusted and disgusted, and his gentlemanly demeanor could not be Damn, after Qin Zhuren and Xiang Xin left, I looked at Chu Jin who was lying on the bed, sleeping to death. He was sleeping on his side facing the sofa, leaving only a curled up back for us.
Qiao Wan said to go get some hangover medicine for Chu Jin. I pushed Chu Jin, but Chu Jin had no reaction at all. I was a little worried: "Isn't it alcohol poisoning?"
"You're overthinking." Liang Sheng and Chu Jin have been friends for many years, and they definitely know Chu Jin much better than I do, including his drinking capacity.
"Liang Sheng, do you think Chu Jin really gave up Xuanxuan because of family problems? I always feel a little unbelievable." I leaned on Liang Sheng's shoulder and asked lazily. There was a boring song playing on the TV. Watching the soap opera made me a little sleepy. I also drank a little wine just now, so the sleep-aid effect is really great.
Liang Sheng twirled my hair with his fingers and said: "No matter what the reason is, it is his own choice, so he can bear it himself."
"Really, you are still his good friend!" I complained with some annoyance.
"It's impossible for a good friend to interfere with his feelings." Liang Sheng replied.
That's right. Apart from occasionally expressing our views and opinions, what can we bystanders do? I closed my eyes and fell asleep, but I remembered what He Feimo said during the day. He Feimo and I were considered friends, but Liang Sheng kept silent about the fact that He Feimo had left Yuan Sheng. Don’t you want to mention He Feimo in front of me? Still so concerned? So why did he help He Feimo escape from Yuan Sheng
"Liang Sheng, has Yuan Sheng had any big events recently?" I thought about it and asked tactfully. If Liang Sheng simply forgot to mention it to me, then it should be obvious enough for me to ask, right
Liang Sheng said: "No."
"Oh, I see you're quite busy." I suddenly felt a little disappointed. He still didn't want to tell me. Although I didn't seem to have any status to ask about Yuan Sheng's affairs, I had worked there after all, and the relationship between Yuan Sheng and Hua Yi Liang Sheng should also be aware of the conflicts between us many years ago. If he and I chat casually, I will feel more comfortable.
"What's wrong with some trivial matters? Miss me?" Liang Sheng joked, but I knew his joke was to change the subject, so I said angrily: "I don't want to."
Liang Sheng suddenly stretched out his hand and scratched the base of my ear. It was so itchy that I immediately laughed. I stood up and punched him: "Why are you scratching me?"
"Do you want to go back to Shanghai?" Liang Sheng looked at me with a warm smile in his dark pupils.
"Are you going to drive me away?" I was a little unhappy.
Liang Sheng stretched out his hand and held me in his arms. His voice was very close to me and very magnetic: "No, I want to go too. Don't you want to go back and take the initiative with Jian Xin on the tcb cooperation case? Isn't it better to drag it on? If they find a better partner during this period, the deal will fall through."
In fact, I have thought about what Liang Sheng said. Yuan Yushan is too deep in the city. If I want to get something out of her, it will not be a matter of a few days. However, the cooperation with tcb may have results in a few days. In these two days, I Tian occasionally received messages from Jian Xin. She said that Cui Jun was still hesitant and that if things on my side were not urgent, he could go back to Shanghai first.
"Come, tell me what have you done in the past few days?" Liang Sheng asked me like a teacher asking a student. He lowered his head and looked at me, who was almost in his arms: "It can't be true. You just ate and slept, you didn’t do anything, right?”
"How is that possible!" I replied lazily: "I compiled some information about Huayi, as well as the contracts of several difficult shareholders, and dug out some information about the cooperation between Huayi and tcb a few years ago. The rest … Gone."
Liang Sheng nodded, looking very pleased: "Not bad."
"Of course, you think I came back to play?" I said proudly, feeling quite like trying to please Liang Sheng. Liang Sheng curled her lips and smiled, then reached out and pinched my cheek: "Then how about going to Shanghai the day after tomorrow? Yes. Are you confident that you can handle that Korean guy?"
Now Cui Jun is hesitating. Both of us are very clear about the conditions and requirements for cooperation. Therefore, it may not be effective to talk about quality and profit. Then we have to rely entirely on eloquence to persuade. I am My confidence was not high, but when I faced Liang Sheng's eyes, I felt a lot more courageous, and I nodded stupidly.
"But why are you going to Shanghai?" I asked Liang Sheng.
"How about cheering you up?" Liang Sheng smiled slyly and said something very informal. At this time, Qiao Wan finally found the anti-alcohol medicine. As soon as she returned to the living room, she saw Liang Sheng and I sticky together. Joking, she deliberately teased: "Are you bullying me, a lonely person?"
Liang Sheng said calmly: "How could it be possible? Miss Qiao, you are eighteen years old, and there should be an endless stream of men chasing you."
Qiao Wan immediately nodded and replied cheerfully: "That's true, even if you have discernment, you can still see it."
I was so amused by the conversation between mother and son that I couldn't help but want to laugh. Liang Sheng pinched my face again: "It's really silly to laugh or not."
I immediately retorted: "Is this what I call cute?"
Liang Sheng sighed pretending to be sad: "Okay, you look silly in your cute way."
