Chapter 15

Everyone has something they are good at.

Tang Zhi is good at adapting; Xu Keyu is good at misinterpreting and turning a deaf ear; Xu Sheng is good at picking and choosing.

Before Xu Keyu's accident, Xu Sheng rarely talked to Tang Zhi.

The two mainly talked about Tang Zhi's performance in front of Xu Keyu.

At that time, Xu Sheng had a very cold attitude towards Tang Zhi. He often ignored Tang Zhi and liked to let Jiang Yan do the talking, as if he would contract some strange disease if he talked to Tang Zhi for a few more words.

But to be honest, Tang Zhi could understand Xu Sheng.

After all, if Tang Zhi, like Xu Sheng, was an upper-class young man who grew up with fine clothes and fine food, he would probably look down on this social figure whose mother is in jail and who was dismissed from university.

—There were so many people who looked down on Tang Zhi, but he didn't care.

Now there are not many servants left in the family, and Jiang Yan's spirit has not fully recovered, and it will take time to re-interview. Xu Sheng could only stay alone with Tang Zhi for a few days, seemingly reluctantly.

He finally said a little more to Tang Zhi, but it was just that Tang Zhi didn't like to hear what he said, so it was better not to say it.

Xu Sheng has a very small schedule this week, and there are not many things that require Tang Zhi's assistance. But Xu Sheng is a person who doesn't know anything but has very high requirements for the quality of life. This is very different from Jiang Yan's "easy to get along with".

For example, when eating, they say "the presentation is too ugly", "the rice is too hard", "I had this dish the day before yesterday".

Another example is Xu Sheng's endless comments on Tang Zhi's dress when he followed him out.

Tang Zhi has a total of four sets of formal suits. When he wears the one he attended Xu Yanlu's birthday party, Xu Sheng will say "you are fat again"; when wearing the two sets he bought when he was working, Xu Sheng will say "it looks cheap"; Xu Sheng asked him about the wedding scene, "Do you want to get married again?"

After just a few days of stumbling together, Tang Zhi felt that his personality had become much calmer and easy-going, and he no longer got angry over many small things.

Sometimes when you hear something unpleasant, just recite the Buddhist scriptures silently in your heart, and the past will be over.

Xu Sheng had to deal with a lot more work than Tang Zhi imagined.

He worked in several first-level subsidiaries of the Xu Group, and his work content was complex. However, each company assigned Xu Sheng a secretary, and Tang Zhi only needed to communicate with them in time to confirm Xu Sheng's itinerary.

Xu Hefu seems to have put Xu's two largest chartered port terminals under Xu Sheng's control. One pier is located northwest of Bingang and the other is due south. Xu Sheng must go there every three days at most.

Taking care of Jiang Yan's physical condition, whenever Tang Zhi encountered something he didn't understand, he would write it down first and ask him about it when he went to the hospital.

Jiang Yan seemed inconvenient to answer some questions, so he would change the topic vaguely.

In fact, Tang Zhi had no intention of prying into Xu Sheng's work secrets, and he didn't love the job. Tang Zhi's biggest hope was that Jiang Yan could recover quickly and shoulder this important responsibility again.

On the tenth day after the car accident, Xu Keyu was transferred from the ICU to the general ward, but still did not wake up.

The doctor and Xu Sheng talked alone. Tang Zhi didn't know what they said, but through Xu Sheng's silence on the way home, he had a vague feeling that Xu Keyu might be in bad condition.

Also that night, Xu Sheng suddenly received a call from his grandfather, and he made a temporary decision to go to Linshi the next day on a short business trip.

My grandfather told Xu Sheng on the phone that Xu Jin had recently become very close to a financial upstart in Linshi and wanted to jointly invest in the establishment of a securities company.

Xu Hefu always lacked trust in the so-called financial upstarts. He asked his secretary to invite him to meet, and the other party readily agreed. However, because he was involved in official business, he decided to ask Xu Sheng to go on his behalf and also visit the other party's company to judge whether it was worth it. trust.

Xu Sheng didn't want to speculate too much on Xu Hefu's intentions, and he didn't resist, so he quickly agreed.

After hanging up the phone, he raised his head and said to Tang Zhi: "Help me pack my luggage for two days and go out with me tomorrow."

The study room was very large. Tang Zhi sat where Jiang Yan used to sit, about two meters away from Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng saw at a glance that Tang Zhi was secretly lowering his head to look at some pet pictures. When he heard the voice, Tang Zhi immediately locked the screen without any money, put the phone upside down on the table, turned around and said calmly, " good".

Like a poor student who was caught by the teacher reading novels in class.

"Are you going out?" Tang Zhi asked curiously.

The ends of Tang Zhi's eyes are very long and slightly upturned. For some reason, his eyes always seem to be moister than others, and they also have more vulgar meaning than others.

To judge fairly, Xu Sheng believed that Tang Zhi was not born to be on the stage.

Because no matter how you introduce Tang Zhi to others, as long as Tang Zhi moves his hands and feet, others will have unhealthy reveries about his actual identity.

For Xu Sheng, this was a very troublesome matter.

If Xu Sheng hadn't had no one around him at the moment, he would not have been so patient.

"Where are you going?" Tang Zhi continued to ask casually without noticing.

Xu Sheng said: "Tongjiang."

Tang Zhi was stunned for a moment and nodded hesitantly. After a few seconds, he suddenly said to Xu Sheng, "I thought I wouldn't go again."

"I didn't resign properly either." He added.

Xu Sheng knew what he was talking about, but he didn't answer him.

At that time, Jiang Yan spent some effort to find Tang Zhi in Tongjiang.

Because Tang Zhi ran very thoroughly, he bought a new number, dragged a suitcase and took a taxi in the middle of the night. He did not travel by means of transportation that required identity verification. His anti-reconnaissance capabilities were still very strong. He went to another city first and transferred After a few subway trips, I changed trains again to Tongjiang.

When Jiang Yan reported the details of the investigation to Xu Sheng, Xu Sheng only felt that this person was overreacting.

Xu Keyu didn't have the power to restrain a chicken, and she just liked him. Why should he run like a murderer hiding from the police.

But recalling Tang Zhi's behavior when Xu Keyu pinned him on the sofa that day before the wedding, Xu Sheng felt that he might have some shadow.

Of course, Tang Zhi's mental health has nothing to do with Xu Sheng, and Xu Sheng will not spend too much time on it.

"Shall we go sort it out now?" Tang Zhi asked Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng still had a lot of work to do, so he said "not going" and asked Tang Zhi to wait.

Tang Zhi sat back more honestly.

Xu Sheng read all the information about the other company sent by Xu Hefu. When he raised his head, he found that it was already past twelve o'clock, and Tang Zhi fell asleep on the table.

This was a situation that had never happened before when Jiang Yan was there.

Xu Sheng stood up, walked to Tang Zhi, and looked down at him.

Tang Zhi took off his coat and was wearing a white shirt. The fabric of the shirt seemed a bit thin and stuck firmly to his back, extending downward along the curvature of his spine.

His arms were folded and folded on the table. His face was half buried in his arms and half exposed in the air. His eyelashes and cheeks seemed soft and docile.

It might be the "kind" look that Xu Keyu likes. Xu Sheng thought quickly.

Xu Sheng stood for a while, not knowing how to wake the person up. He cleared his throat first, but Tang Zhi didn't move.

He thought for a while and planned to push Tang Zhi awake directly.

But his hand was about to put on Tang Zhi's shoulder, but he didn't move it up because he didn't really want to touch Tang Zhi, even through his shirt.

Finally, Xu Sheng picked up the pen on Tang Zhi's desk and poked Tang Zhi's arm a few times with the pen holder. Tang Zhi finally showed signs of waking up, so Xu Sheng immediately put the pen back on the table.

Tang Zhi moved and raised his head. His eyes had not yet been fully opened. He looked as if he was still asleep. He sighed in an undignified manner, his head swaying this way and that. After a few seconds, he turned to Xu Sheng and asked him: "Is it over?"

Xu Sheng kept a straight face and said nothing.

As a temporary part-time assistant with no professional ethics, Tang Zhi stood up from the table in a daze. Xu Sheng clearly saw the imprint from his shirt sleeve on the left side of his face. He must have slept for a long time.

"So sleepy." Tang Zhi said to Xu Sheng, then lowered his head and then raised it up again, as if he was exercising the back of his neck.

"Help me pack my luggage." Xu Sheng reminded him coldly.

"Oh," Tang Zhi seemed to have finally woken up and said suddenly, "Yes."

Xu Sheng didn't want to communicate with him anymore, so he turned around and walked out. Tang Zhi hurriedly followed him. I don't know if his legs were weak from sleeping for too long, or because he tripped over something. Tang Zhi suddenly pounced forward, and seemed to subconsciously grab Xu Sheng's sleeve with force and pull it down.

Xu Sheng was pulled back by him, and the two of them bumped into each other.

Tang Zhi didn't catch Xu Sheng's arm, but the heat from his finger joints still spread through his sleeves and onto Xu Sheng's skin.

Xu Sheng looked down at Tang Zhi without saying a word. He saw Tang Zhi's bright red lips pursed, and he quickly let go of his hand, as if he had done something wrong, and moved away from Xu Sheng with a slight guilt.

Xu Sheng's sleeves were wrinkled, and his arms still felt like they were being pulled by the fabric, as well as a strange heat.

He looked at Young Master Tang Zhi, said nothing, turned around and walked out the door again.
