"Grandma, I think you'd better talk to Shen Yan in person." Xia Yu didn't want to make the decision for Shen Yan, or in other words, she wanted the old lady to really get to know her grandson.
It's really funny when I think about it, they have lived under the same roof for almost thirty years.
"What, is this what he meant?" The old lady was dissatisfied. She talked to Xia Yu because she didn't want to face that unscrupulous man who went so far as to kill her brother.
If it was about the old lady, and the person Shen Yan threatened was the old lady, she would not compromise even if she died. But the person he threatened was Shen Mo, so she had to take action.
In fact, the old lady was quite strange. Shen Mo threatened her and she accepted the order, but she just couldn't accept Shen Yan's threat. Xia Yu really didn't know what her logic was. Looking at the old lady, Xia Yu smiled and said, "I think it would be better if you talk to him in person."
"Xiao Yu, it's not like you don't even give grandma this little face, right?" The old lady breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. She was already like this. What's the point
"Grandma, because you are talking to me as a grandma, I hope you can talk to Shen Yan in person. Maybe you will gain something unexpected." Xia Yu's tone was sincere.
"In that case, fine." The old lady finally nodded.
When Xia Yu came out, Secretary Yang was standing at the door. He was stunned when he saw her hands were empty. He quickly returned to normal, "Miss Xia, I'll see you off."
This is a villa area, so it's difficult to get a taxi. Xia Yu didn't show any pretense, nodded and walked towards Secretary Yang's car. After getting in the car, the two of them were speechless. Secretary Yang sent Xia Yu directly to Ruyilu's door.
Xia Yu said thank you and got out of the car. Secretary Yang nodded and drove away. The whole process was over.
Shen Yan didn't stay in the company for long and quickly went to Red Lips. When he came in, the boss happened to be at the bar and seemed to be training the bartenders. Because it was not a weekend, there were not many people at the bar seats.
When the boss saw him coming in, he left the bartender and went to greet him, "Master Yan, I haven't seen you for a while."
Shen Yan actually had a normal relationship with his boss, so he just nodded in agreement. Seeing that he didn't look well, he didn't ask any more questions. He just said, "Young Master Li is already here. I'm waiting for you in the box alone. You go ahead. I'll ask someone to bring a bottle of wine in later."
After all, he was a regular customer, so he took care of him. Shen Yan nodded without saying anything and walked through the hall to the other side. The private room was at the end. Shen Yan pushed the door directly and went in. Sure enough, Li Wen was alone. He didn't order a drink, so he sat alone on the sofa and played with his mobile phone. When he looked up, he saw Shen Yan standing at the door. He threw his mobile phone aside and put his legs aside. Put it on the coffee table.
"Come in!"
Shen Yan frowned and went in. The two sat face to face and looked at each other.
In the past, the lights in the private room were not turned on every time he came, but now they were brightly lit. Once the lights were turned on in this kind of nightclub, he felt unaccustomed to it. Li Wen's eyes were half-squinted and his legs were crossed.
After taking off their respective positions and identities, the people sitting face to face now are just "enemies" who have been fighting since childhood.
Shen Yan hugged his hands and supported his knees: "Don't be bored!" He got to the point.
Li Wen smiled: "I just want to see a joke, what can you do to me?"
"I just want to tell you some risks and benefits as a bystander today. Well, just like the previous projects, before each project is officially launched, you will analyze the pros and cons, conduct market research, and then prepare a planning document. , we might as well analyze it now.”
Li Wen put his legs down from the coffee table and sat in an analyst's posture.
"Let's talk about your risks first. Once you and the old lady are completely separated, what else can you do in the Shen family? Of course, you will say that there is still room for change. You still have the support of the Xia family and even Yang The family may not lose, but if you work so hard, don’t you just want the Shen family to flourish?”
"Otherwise, with your ability, you can rebuild another Shen family. I believe you have the strength, but you didn't do that. Why? You know it."
"It's better to have a good talk with the old lady. There are a lot of rumors outside, but I believe you are not that kind of person. Otherwise, I will not give me a beating and continue to cooperate with you."
"Your information is very well-informed, but it's really not what the old lady thinks. Besides, I also want to talk to him, but I also want her to give me a chance." Shen Yan let out a long breath, sometimes thinking about it Feel sad.
The people you least like to see know you best, but the people you always value very much don't understand you at all.
"Why don't you let Xia Yu talk to her old man first?" Li Wen shook his head and picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"These words can also come from your mouth, did I hear you correctly?" Shen Yan smiled.
"Don't be too proud, kid. I think Xia Yu really likes you. If one day she doesn't like you so much anymore, I won't let you." Li Wen rolled his eyes at Shen Yan several times.
"You're dreaming!" After Shen Yan said that, he stood up and walked out. A dog can't spit out ivory, so he has nothing to say to this kind of person.
The boss himself opened a bottle of foreign wine and brought it to the box. When he opened the door, he saw Shen Yan coming out, and the two almost bumped into each other.
Boss: "Master Yan, why are you leaving so soon?"
Shen Yan said nothing and brushed past the boss with a cold face.
The boss was a little embarrassed while holding the wine. He walked into the box and saw Li Wen still sitting there, spinning his cell phone.
Boss: "What's going on? We had a quarrel?"
Li Wen called out: "Whoever has time to argue with him, come on and give me the wine."
Boss: "Are you drinking alone?"
Li Wen rolled his eyes at the boss: "Who said I can't call if I'm alone?" As he spoke, he opened his phone and dialed the number, and the call was quickly connected.
"Hey, Lao Yan, are you empty? If so, come and drink at Red Lips!"
Shen Yan went directly to Xia Yu's house. Looking at his appearance, Xia Yu knew that he was still angry. Also, she would be angry if it were her place.
"What do you want to eat? I'll cook it for you?" Xia Yu didn't ask, letting them resolve such matters themselves.
"I like whatever you do." Shen Yan fell on the sofa, picked up the remote control, and started adjusting the channels randomly.
Xia Yu made his favorite fried chicken, mapo tofu, stir-fried beef, vegetables and soup.
Shen Yan picked up the bowl and ate. After eating, he stayed with Xia Yu and refused to leave. Xia Yu could only let him go. Xia Yu was tired these days and went to bed early. Shen Yan was still watching TV in the living room while she slept.
But she was woken up by a nightmare in the middle of the night. When she woke up, she was covered in cold sweat and her pajamas were almost soaked. She couldn't fall asleep again. She could only turn on the light and get out of bed, go to the kitchen and pour a glass of warm water to drink. Her whole body felt numb. In a state of chaos.
As he passed the living room, he glanced at the door again. There was silence outside.
It was already past midnight at that time, he should have left, right
Xia Yu couldn't help but walked to the door and opened it gently. There was only a dark corridor outside the door and nothing else. She breathed a faint sigh of relief and walked back to the bedroom. There was no light in the bedroom, but she could hear the ticking sound of the hands of the bedside alarm clock, telling her that the night and life were passing by at the same time.
Xia Yu couldn't sleep anymore and walked over and simply turned on the bedside lamp. There was a bang and her eyes were bright. She closed her eyes and calmed down for a while before sitting on the edge of the bed again and took out something from under the pillow. To be precise, it was a This old collection of poems was found by her from a second-hand bookstore, and she carefully wrapped it in a cover.
He lay back on the bed with the book, touched the author's name on it with his fingers, and clasped it gently in his arms.
The reason Shen Yan left Xia Yu's home was because he wanted to go back and talk to the old lady, but halfway through the car, he changed his mind. He understands the truth. What he is doing so much for is not brotherly love. He has done everything. Does he still care about their misunderstanding
But he just felt so worried that he turned the car around again and returned to his home. But he couldn't sleep. I had trouble sleeping in the first half of the night, and finally managed to fall asleep after drinking two glasses of red wine. However, I was woken up by the doorbell just after dawn.
Who would knock on his door so early
Shen Yan sucked on his slippers and went over, his head still swollen. He pressed his temples with his hands to open the door, but when he raised his head, he saw Secretary Yang standing outside the door.
"Young Master Yan, the old lady has invited you!" Secretary Yang said respectfully, what can be done? Once Shen Yan leaves, the Shen family will be his, and Secretary Yang still expects him to pay her salary.
"Oh, I'll go change my clothes." Shen Yan turned around and Secretary Yang followed. At this time, Aunt Ma also heard the noise and saw that it was Secretary Yang. She quickly made tea.
"Don't bother, we'll leave right away." When she said us, she naturally meant Shen Yan and her.
Aunt Ma looked in the direction of Shen Yan's room, nodded, and went out for a walk.
Soon Shen Yan appeared in front of the old lady, and Secretary Yang closed the door and went out just like last time.
"Xiao Yan, I called you here so early, so I didn't disturb your rest." The old lady forced out a smile, but the smile was no better than crying.
If you don't want to laugh, don't force it. Shen Yan ventriloquised in his heart, "It's okay. I wonder if grandma came to see me for anything?"
"Grandma just wanted to ask, how is your investigation of Ning Jing back then? Is there any new progress?" Now that he has been called back, let's talk to him properly, the old lady asked while holding back her breath. .
"Yes, it is basically certain that Jingping was murdered." Shen Yan said very seriously.
Being so straightforward, the old lady stood up from her chair and stared directly at Shen Yan. And Shen Yan also looked at her, and time slipped by as they looked at each other.
In the end, the old lady gave up first. She sighed and sat down, "You really can't let go of your eldest brother? In fact, isn't it just for the position of CEO? There are many ways to get it, why choose the stupidest one? ?”
"What do you mean, grandma?" Shen Yan's eyes were always on the old lady, as if he wanted to see through her.
The old lady felt uncomfortable when he looked at her. She avoided his gaze and murmured, "Grandma can directly recommend you to be the president."
"Oh? I wonder if you have any exchange conditions, grandma?" Shen Yan's expression was calm, his tone was steady, and his eyes were always on the old lady.
