In the early morning of the next day, Zhong Teng's secretary's office received a call from Huang Yao, Sheng Kai wanted to meet Sheng Xiao.
The secretary knocked on the door of Sheng Xiao's office and asked Sheng Xiao, "President, would you like to meet? If you don't want to meet someone from the Sheng family, I can decline on your behalf."
Without raising his head, Sheng Xiao focused on his own affairs, and naturally squeezed out two words between his lips and teeth: "I don't see you."
The secretary got the answer, turned around and left, but was stopped by Sheng Xiao: "Arrange it, but don't take up my most important time, and don't let it be when I'm off work."
At that time, it was too late to rush home to see the little things, and I didn't want to meet those irrelevant people.
"I see, President." The secretary closed the door, then looked at Sheng Xiao's schedule, and then arranged a time that was not very important for Sheng Kai to meet.
Of course, it was Sheng Kai who wanted to see him, and he would not move a single step away. If Sheng Kai wanted something, he had to come to the door by himself.
Huang Yao got the answer, and the new secretary replied to Sheng Kai: "Zhongteng gave me a time from one to two in the afternoon, but at that time, President, you have a meeting."
"Delay it."
To be honest, Sheng Kai is really good to Gu Ziling. Now that the Gu family is in shambles, he has not abandoned his wife, and he has not held important meetings, just to solve the problem for her. uncle.
But is it useful to ask Sheng Xiao? In fact, he knew very well in his heart that this was of no use. He just opened his mouth and had to practice it in order to restore his dignity in front of his wife.
"Where is the location?"
"It's in Zhongteng."
Sheng Kai nodded, and then dismissed his secretary, that's good, let him see how much Sheng Xiao's so-called crowd is... shocking and enviable.
…
At 12:30 in the afternoon, Sheng Kai arrived at Zhongteng Building early, but at this time, Sheng Xiao was still in the meeting.
The secretary led Sheng Kai into Sheng Xiao's office. It turned out that this was Sheng Xiao's new kingdom.
It is not as luxurious as Huangyao's office. The whole office is simple and simple, but it is more advanced and several times larger, especially when standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Jianchuan. It is indeed a treasured place of geomantic omen.
After a while, the secretary pushed open the door of the office, and then Sheng Xiao walked in. Seeing Sheng Kai sitting firmly on the sofa, he waved the secretary to go out.
"What do you want from me?" Sheng Xiao put down the documents, and sat down on the sofa opposite Sheng Kai.
"I'm really not used to you becoming so calm." Sheng Kai looked at Sheng Xiao and felt that he had really changed a lot. The flamboyant and crazy Sheng Xiao that used to be no longer existed, and was replaced by the calm and steady Sheng Xiao in front of him. , a man who shows no emotion.
"President Sheng, let's get straight to the point." Sheng Xiao said directly.
"You've heard about the Gu family. It's in turmoil right now. I'm here today because of Uncle Ziling's affairs. I'm involved in a murder case, and I'm caught by Qiqi."
"It's not that Qi'er is entangled, it's that he himself committed the crime at the hands of the police." Sheng Xiao emphasized, "Although I guessed that you would come, I thought you would tell me something new about the murder case. Let’s follow the arrangements of the police.”
"As long as you are willing to take action, you can definitely prevent the police from investigating."
"First of all, as a legal citizen, while enjoying my rights, I also fulfill my obligations. Having money does not mean that I can override the law. I will not do this, and I advise you not to do so." Sheng Xiao replied directly.
"You... are not a person who plays cards according to common sense."
"I don't play cards according to common sense, but it doesn't mean I don't obey the law." Sheng Xiao emphasized to Sheng Kai very seriously, "You want to help your wife, there is nothing wrong with it, and Qi'er wants to help the mother and child who died tragically. It’s only natural, but I’m telling you clearly, I won’t, and can’t, intervene in this matter.”
After listening to Sheng Xiao's words, Sheng Kai suddenly chuckled: "Old Ba, you have changed a lot. You used to have such a compassionate personality."
"If you have nothing else to do, I have other meetings to attend."
"Actually, I came here because I wanted to see how free and easy you are now after trying everything possible to escape from the Sheng family. Sure enough, you are full of freedom. You left Huang Yao's burden to me. Have you ever regretted it once?"
"Why should I regret it?" Sheng Xiao asked Sheng Kai back.
"That should be your burden."
Hearing this, Sheng Xiao laughed sarcastically: "I thought that half a year had passed, and the members of the Sheng family should have improved, but I was disappointed, you still seemed so taken for granted, and so selfish."
"Whether the police is investigating the case or whether you have a knot in your heart, does it seem that the whole world revolves around the Sheng family?"
"Let me tell you the whole story. Tifan will have problems in the near future. If you continue to cooperate with Tifan, you will be able to relieve yourself of the heavy responsibility soon, because the old man will be completely disappointed in you."
"You and the third child really colluded."
"You don't need to go through him to know about your actions." After Sheng Xiao finished speaking, he got up from the sofa, "It seems that you didn't really come to ask for help. Without this gesture, if you really want me to If you miss your old love, you won't be so rude when you speak, this is me, should I feel sad for my second sister-in-law?"
"If I could offer you a condition to help convince Xiao Qi, would you consider it?"
"I have what you have, so what conditions do you think you give up so that I will agree?"
"Then why do you want to see me?" Sheng Kai's voice revealed a coldness, "You should have known my reason for coming, since you promised to see me, didn't you give me a glimmer of hope?"
"Out of politeness."
"You want to avenge me for humiliating you." Sheng Kai guessed, "When you were down, I made you feel bad."
"Actually, I want to persuade you to ask the Gu family to cooperate with the investigation. Otherwise, once the case is made public, the entire Gu family will be involved in a scandal, which will be even more... terrible than it is now."
"Okay, I have also visited your office, and I appreciate your kindness. I really shouldn't waste this time."
After finishing speaking, Sheng Kai also got up from the sofa.
Because he thought that he could beg Sheng Xiao and say good things to him, but when he really saw that Sheng Xiao was better than him, his self-esteem began to play crazily again.
It was obvious that they were asking each other for something, but in the end, it turned out that he was confronting Sheng Xiao every sentence.
However, now that the point has been reached, Sheng Kai is not afraid to go too far: "You don't make a move, but if I make a move, it is neither serious nor minor. If you hurt your younger siblings, don't blame me for not saying hello in advance."
"you try."
"Old Ba, you are not the only one who will deny your relatives."
