In the lobby of Hongyun Group, Xu Zhenzhen was blocked by the front desk. He is not an employee of the group and has not made an appointment in advance, so he cannot enter.
Xu Zhenzhen was a little helpless, who told her that she had never been here except for a few days as an intern, and she didn't even get acquainted with each other. She dialed Xu Hongru's phone, and his assistant answered it. She briefly explained the situation, and the assistant rushed down to answer her.
The little girl at the front desk was stunned. Who is this? She was so troublesome that the assistant to the president came down to pick her up. Xu Zhenzhen smiled at her and followed the assistant upstairs.
"Miss, the chairman is in a meeting, he should be ready soon, you can wait for him in his office." The assistant led Xu Zhenzhen into Xu Hongru's office.
"Well, go get busy and leave me alone." Xu Zhenzhen sat down on the sofa in the office and said.
The assistant poured her a cup of tea and went out.
Not long after, the door was pushed open, Xu Hongru walked in, Xu Zhenzhen stood up and called out: "Dad."
Xu Hongru was very happy to see Xu Zhenzhen, not to mention that she was acting so well now, he nodded and smiled at Xu Zhenzhen and said, "Really, why are you here, sit down quickly."
Xu Zhenzhen sat down obediently, and asked straight to the point: "Dad, why didn't you answer the phone I called you yesterday?"
"Did you call me? Why didn't I know?" Xu Hongru said.
"Aunt Xiang picked it up. She said you were in a meeting, didn't she tell you?" Xu Zhenzhen said.
Xu Hongru hesitated for a moment and replied: "No, maybe she forgot."
Xu Zhenzhen didn't care either, she never thought that Hu Lixiang would tell Xu Hongru that she had called, and she asked, "Dad, I came here today to find out about Liqin."
"You know everything?" Xu Hongru asked with raised brows.
"Well, I probably know what's going on, so I want to ask you what's going on." Xu Zhenzhen nodded.
Xu Hongru talked about the situation that day, still in a very angry tone.
"Aunt Xiang told you all this?" Xu Zhenzhen asked.
Xu Hongru nodded, is there any problem
"Why did Aunt Xiang take a photo of Liqin? Is she sending someone to follow him?" Xu Zhenzhen said.
Xu Hongru raised his head abruptly, meeting Xu Zhenzhen's calm gaze, he retorted: "Your Aunt Xiang is very vigilant and only did this."
"Aunt Xiang is very vigilant, so Liqin is so stupid, he can easily be photographed if he does something bad? Don't forget, he is a genius." Xu Zhenzhen said with a snort.
"Anyway, we have all the evidence, so don't excuse him." Although Xu Hongru said this, there was a trace of doubt in his voice.
Xu Zhenzhen heard this doubt, and continued: "Aunt Xiang has always disliked Liqin, for fear that he would rob Zidong's family property, you always knew that."
Xu Hongru's face is calm, but his heart is slightly shaken. Hu Lixiang's grudge against He Liqin is deep-rooted. He used to think it was just her love for her son, and he never took it to heart, but if he really said it Yes, she framed Liqin out of fear that He Liqin would affect Zidong, that would be too hateful.
Xu Hongru waved his hand and said, "I know what's in my heart, so don't say any more."
Xu Zhenzhen knew that she couldn't say any more, and besides, her father probably thought she had some intentions, so Xu Zhenzhen stood up and said relaxedly: "Then I'll go first, so I won't delay your work."
"Hey, you stay and have a meal with your dad." Xu Hongru didn't expect Xu Zhenzhen to leave soon, so he hurriedly said.
"No, Liqin is in a bad mood these days, I'll go back and be with him." Xu Zhenzhen refused, she was still worried about He Liqin.
Xu Hongru was a little disappointed, but seeing his daughter's resolute expression, he sighed secretly in his heart. The female university was not allowed to stay, but fortunately she is back on the right track now, at least she can feel at ease in this respect. If she wants to leave, she will leave. Chance to eat together.
"Then are you going home for dinner this weekend?" Xu Hongru asked unwillingly.
"Then can I bring Liqin back for dinner?" Xu Zhenzhen had already turned and walked towards the door, and when he heard what his father said, he turned around and asked.
Xu Hongru hesitated for a long time but did not speak, Xu Zhenzhen pouted, opened the door and went out.
Back at He Liqin's apartment, he had already prepared lunch and waited for Xu Zhenzhen to come back. He Liqin originally didn't want Xu Zhenzhen to meet Xu Hongru because of his affairs, but Xu Zhenzhen couldn't stand it and said that she just wanted to see her father. This couldn't stop the father and daughter from meeting each other, so she had to go.
Xu Zhenzhen didn't say why he went to Hongyun, and He Liqin didn't ask, the two of them ate in silence.
"I'll go out later." He Liqin said after finishing his meal, putting down the bowl and chopsticks.
Since Xu Zhenzhen practiced, he ate less and put down the dishes long ago. She pays great attention to the method of cultivation, unlike Uncle Cat who eats and drinks wildly. Uncle Cat eats too much turbidity, which affects the absorption of spiritual energy. Besides, the more you practice, the less hungry you will feel. Uncle Cat is purely addicted to his mouth, and there is another most important reason, even if he doesn't eat, he can't break through the current state, because he is limited by his body.
"Where are you going?" Xu Zhenzhen asked vigilantly, and now he must be highly nervous in every move, lest he go the wrong way.
"Go to Chairman Liao of Jiesheng." He Liqin said while packing the dishes.
"What! Why are you still looking for him now?" Xu Zhenzhen asked.
"There's something I want to figure out."
"Then I'll go with you."
"No, I'll go alone."
Seeing He Liqin rejecting him, Xu Zhenzhen rolled his eyes and said, "You go to him at this time, if you are photographed by Hu Lixiang again, wouldn't it be even more difficult to explain, if I stay by your side, when the time comes I can explain it to you."
He Liqin thought for a while and said, "Well, okay."
Of course he knew this truth, but he didn't want to use Xu Zhenzhen to clean himself up, but he was still very moved to see her defending herself like this. Ever since seeing Xu Zhenzhen, He Liqin obviously felt that his decadent mood was swept away, his heart was purified by her smile, and he became much calmer.
When Xu Zhenzhen went to Hongyun in the morning, He Liqin contacted Chairman Liao. The voice on the other end of the phone was still so enthusiastic and happy, and it sounded like he was recovering well.
Different from last time, Liao Zhengguo personally came to greet He Liqin at the door. When he saw Xu Zhenzhen who came with him, after saying hello, he couldn't help but whispered to He Liqin, "Is this your girlfriend?"
He Liqin glanced at Xu Zhenzhen, and although he didn't answer, Liao Zhengguo understood his thoughts from his eyes, and the dazed expression on his face made He Liqin even more unable to answer, saying yes, he hasn't asked for it yet. Xu Zhenzhen agreed, saying no, but he was very unwilling in his heart, so he could only smile and ignore this topic.
"Uncle Liao, are you feeling better?" He Liqin asked.
"It's much better, but the doctor still doesn't let me work and let me recuperate at home. I'm almost bored to death. Fortunately, you came to chat with me." Liao Zhengguo smiled.
He Liqin hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Uncle Liao, do you know about Fengying's project?"
"Fengying?" Liao Zhengguo frowned slightly, searched his memory for a moment, and said, "Well, this is the project that Jiesheng is going to invest in. I was already preparing for it before I was hospitalized, but I didn't manage the company during this time." I don’t know if I won the bid or not.”
He Liqin and Xu Zhenzhen looked at each other. Liao Zhengguo didn't know about this matter, so He Liqin said, "Uncle Liao, can I trouble you to ask Secretary Cao, how did you win the bid for this project?"
"Oh? Already won the bid?" Liao Zhengguo's tone was a little excited, and he continued: "I remember that several big companies were vying for this project. I thought that Jiesheng had no chance of winning, but I didn't expect to be won by us."
"Yes, I was kicked out by my adoptive father for this reason." He Liqin said truthfully.
After hearing this, Liao Zhengguo looked puzzled, He Liqin told the whole story, and Liao Zhengguo immediately picked up his mobile phone and dialed Secretary Cao's number.
Liao Zhengguo hung up the phone and said in a slightly low tone: "Secretary Cao said that someone told our marketing staff about your company's bidding price, so..."
"Who told it?" He Liqin asked.
Liao Zhengguo spread his hands and said, "I don't know, that person didn't leave his name, but he just emphasized that the news must be accurate. The marketing staff are also dead horses, and their quotations are slightly lower than your company's. Winning the bid."
Seeing He Liqin's injured expression, Liao Zhengguo hastily added: "Do you need me to clarify with your chairman?"
"No." He Liqin and Xu Zhenzhen said at the same time.
"Oh? Why? Don't you want to go back?"
He Liqin saw that Xu Zhenzhen signaled him to answer, so he said: "If you explain and clarify, my adoptive father may not believe it, but will be more suspicious."
Liao Zhengguo thought about it for a while, and no longer forced it, but just invited: "Since you are no longer working in Hongyun, why don't you help me?"
"No, thank you Uncle Liao for your kindness. I want to think about my future plans recently, so I don't want to work for the time being." He Liqin rejected Liao Zhengguo's invitation without even thinking about it.
Liao Zhengguo didn't force it. Seeing that He Liqin was not in a good mood, he changed the subject and started chatting on topics that He Liqin was interested in. Seeing that He Liqin gradually became cheerful, Xu Zhenzhen was relieved. To be honest, she was very worried that He Liqin would collapse after knowing the truth, although both of them had already guessed the result.
The old and the young chatted and chatted until it was dark, He Liqin and Xu Zhenzhen didn't hold back Liao Zhengguo, so they had dinner at his house before coming back.
