The Baihe Group was built by Xu Ting. He is a shrewd businessman. It took him a lot of hard work to go from a solitary cafeteria to hundreds of chains today.
When Xu Ye, who inherited his father's business, first entered the company, he was assigned to a chain cafeteria as a junior manager. From the bottom, he participated in extremely trivial tasks such as purchase and sales, store layout, work assignment, and account management. He learns quickly and is very serious. In order to understand the freshness and methods of different ingredients, he even worked as a cook for two months, wandering around the kitchen every day. Two years later, he was promoted to regional manager, responsible for the management of more than 100 stores in the entire southeastern region.
I've been in a bad mood these few days. Subordinates have speculated that it was because of a quality problem in the materials used in a certain store, which caused customer discomfort and received complaints. However, secretary Lily felt that there was another reason, because when she entered the manager's office several times to deliver coffee, she found him staring at the phone from time to time, as if waiting for some call.
During the meeting on Friday afternoon, he showed obvious anxiety. He sat in the middle of the huge conference table with a dark face, listening to the turnover analysis done by his subordinates, and shifted his attention from the PPT drawings several times. on the phone next to the folder.
This made Lily a little curious. She has been Xu Shao's secretary for over a year. When she was first transferred, she was envied by a lot of female colleagues, who thought she was close to the water tower. At the beginning, she did have some small thoughts in her mind, thinking that she had a good appearance and a good figure, maybe she would be lucky enough to make him a young grandmother. So I dress up every day and take every opportunity to show off my moral, intellectual, physical, and artistic qualities. Later, I found that I was like a peacock opening, and I didn't get any special attention from that person at all. Over time, a lot of frustration has arisen. Later, when I saw him playing with the young master of the Liu family, I realized that he didn't like women, and finally regained some confidence.
However, Xu Shao is indifferent to everyone, and he has not seen any fixed companions around him. I have been staring at my phone for the past few days. Could it be that the peach blossom has finally bloomed? While Lily guessed in her heart, she handed him the sorted information.
"These are all to be signed today?" Xu Ye frowned at the thick stack of paper.
"The first three will be given to the chief financial officer later." Lily classified them carefully.
As the weekend approached, Xu Ye's anxiety became stronger and stronger. And the delayed text message from the masked man made him almost exhausted his patience. He was looking forward to that text message, so the wait became a torment. He forced himself to work and concentrate on dealing with the A4 paper full of words in his hand, but in the end he just scribbled his name after reading it. "Let's talk about the rest next week. You go out first." He closed the folder, closed his eyes, and rubbed his temples.
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang.
Xu Ye suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed the phone: "Hello."
The other party said something briefly, and before Lily left, she heard Xu Shao, who had always been calm, almost shout out: "What is it that you can't find anything?" She closed the door in fear and cut off the sound. As a secretary, she naturally knows how to advance and retreat.
The person who called was Liu Jing. Xu Ye entrusted him to check the masked man, but found nothing. This made Xu Ye feel unbelievable. With their connections, they couldn't get any news about that person.
"It will get deeper if you investigate further, Aye. It's not easy to reach out to the east of the city, let alone if you can't find anything, your arms will have to be folded there." Liu Jing warned him.
The clue points to the east of the city, which is the sphere of influence of the Black Hawk Society and the location of the club.
He sighed a little unwillingly. Really, no more digging.
Dinner was settled at the nearby restaurant. It looked like a dazzling buffet. He went around twice without taking anything to eat. In the end, he only drank some mushroom soup and ate a small piece of lamb chops. In fact, these few days he was too busy dealing with quality accidents and dealing with the media. He slept very little and the quality was not high.
He was tired of the love affair between Xu Ting and Zhou Jia, so he moved out to rent as soon as he went to college. Xu Ting gave him the keys of a villa, but he didn't accept it. Later, I made money to buy a duplex single apartment. I designed and decorated it myself. Although the area is not large, I am very comfortable living in it.
The physically and mentally exhausted Xu Ye took a shower and fell asleep. After waking up once at night, he stumbled across his phone to check the time. When he saw the screen clearly, he was instantly drowsy.
A new message appears on the screen.
"At 9:00 on Saturday morning, Building 8, Hanguan, Huashan Road, North City. - Your master"
Xu Ye sat up, read it carefully several times, and saved the number in the contacts, filled in the masked man in the name column, and later changed it to Y. He remembered that it was the word on the door number of the masked man's room.
Han Pavilion. He knew the place, it was a villa area with beautiful scenery. The construction time was about 10 years ago, and the best piece of land on the edge of K City was selected, which is surrounded by mountains and lakes. The developer is the Golden Eagle Group, which was whitewashed by the Black Hawk Club. The house in Hanguan has not been listed for sale, and there has never been any news of transfer in the past few years. A year ago, there was a young man in the circle who boasted that he wanted to get a set in Haikou, but he exhausted all the methods and contacts but failed. In the end, he could only be willing to admit defeat and dance a striptease in front of them, making everyone laugh. for several months.
Is the masked man really related to Black Hawk
The dark pupils behind his mask, the slender fingers holding the whip, and the seemingly non-existent aura of danger emanating from his body all made people feel excited.
Xu Ye thought about it for a long time, and finally fell asleep in a daze.
When I woke up the next morning, the time displayed on my phone was 8:45. The excitement of last night also made him forget that he didn't set an alarm on Saturday, and the exhaustion of the past few days made him oversleep.
Even if there is no traffic jam, it is obviously impossible for him to arrive before nine o'clock.
Thinking of this, he was a little frustrated. Think twice about deciding to reply to a text message first.
"My lord, I'm sorry. I'll be half an hour late because the company has something urgent to do. -Your slave"
He used a very respectful tone to organize the language, and after sending it successfully, he began to get up and get dressed in a leisurely manner.
When we arrived at Hanguan, there were still ten minutes before 9:30.
The security of this villa area is heavy, and it can be described as heavily guarded. The security guard dressed in black politely asked Xu Ye to get out of the car and stood in front of an electronic eye. Then press the "8" number key, connect the phone and ask: "Sir, is this your guest?"
The other party gave a positive answer and seemed to say something.
The security replied: "Okay sir." Then he turned around and walked to a black Audi nearby and opened the passenger's door: "Sir, let me take you in. Please don't worry, my colleague will take the car for you. Park well."
Xu Ye felt a little depressed, but didn't say anything, threw the key to another security guard, and got into the car.
The whole area is large in size and the number of buildings is small. The distance between the villas is very long, coupled with a lot of lush greenery, the sight is blocked by tall trees, and only part of the roof can be seen on the roadway. It's a very private place, he thought.
In front of a courtyard with the "No.8" bronze medal hanging, the car slowly stopped. The security opened the door for him and then rang the doorbell for him. "If you want to leave, please notify us to pick you up." After saying that, he bowed and left without a single extra sentence. He was very well-trained.
The electronic lock opened with a crisp sound, and Xu Ye pushed open the door and entered.
The high ceiling makes the living room on the first floor look very spacious. The huge floor-to-ceiling windows make the visual effect more open. The sunlight slants in through the white gauze curtains, which weakens the black and white tones of the whole house. The use of soft decorations such as beige and gray softens the color of the room, and the placement of a large number of green plants echoes the tall trees outside the glass window, adding vitality. A fireplace and hanging antlers bring some Nordic flair. The furnishings in the house are simple, clean and tidy, making people feel very comfortable.
Xu Ye quickly looked around, his eyes fell on the black leather sofa, facing the man.
The man sat with his arms crossed, still wearing a mask on his face, a faint blue color, covering most of his face, with some fine diamonds on it, and the stars glowing with his right ear stud in the sunlight.
Seeing those deep eyes that couldn't see happiness and anger staring at him lightly. Xu Ye couldn't help but start to get nervous, and he shouted in a slightly flattering voice, "...Master."
"The company's business is over?" The man's voice was still calm and leisurely.
"Yes." When he answered, he felt a little guilty, after all, lying is not his strong suit.
"Okay." The man got up, "now I will show you here, this is where you will come every week from now on. I will tell you clearly what are the requirements for you in the designated area. During this process You can ask questions."
"Oh." After Xu Ye responded, the man glanced at him. He pursed his lips and said, "Yes, Master."
The man started his lecture. "The house is completely private, with the right construction materials chosen to isolate sound and sight. I can make sure that nothing in the house will be snooped on. No information about you will be leaked, you are safe here Yes. So, I ask you to stay naked in this room."
This request made Xu Ye a little nervous, and mixed with some inexplicable excitement.
- I really have some masochistic physique. He thought with some self-loathing.
"Can you cook?" The man stopped in the open kitchen.
"I know some, but I don't do it well." After all, he has been a helper for two months, and the food he makes is not a problem to eat. As for the taste, it is definitely not exquisite.
The man thought for a while and said, "In the future, you will prepare breakfast every Sunday. I will ask the chef to cook the other meals, but I ask you to try your best to learn."
"Let the chef come here to cook?!" Xu Ye widened his eyes, "but just now... you asked me to stay naked... "
The man hooked his lips and smiled: "I will especially allow you to hang a long nightgown on the hanger on the first floor and wear it when the chef comes. If you feel awkward, you'd better learn to cook as soon as possible and satisfy my taste."
