Madam is a dandy, Mr. Shen loves her so much

Shenghuai Hotel.

In late summer and early autumn, the ginkgo trees on both sides of the road begin to turn yellow, and the mature trees are thick and strong, highlighting the splendor and weight of the architecture.

The bouquets of flowers placed in the hotel lobby were delicate and beautiful, and the people passing by were quiet and silent, maintaining the qualities expected in public places.

On the sofa closest to the door, the three people sitting upright were wearing suits of the same color.

The person in the middle glanced at the watch on his wrist, and his eyes touched the elevator door opening.

The three of them stood up in unison.

The woman who got off the elevator had a neat short haircut. She looked smart and capable, but she had a baby face.

The long black skirt outlines her curvy figure, and the belt around her waist is cool and stylish.

If he hadn't met him in advance, Gao Jun would not have believed that this person was the person in charge of QE's Jianghuai branch.

Although QE is not a big company, it has developed for such a long time.

I originally thought that after taking over Love's agency rights, the people sent by QE should at least be able to hold it.

I didn't expect it to be such a little girl.

Gao Jun put away all the complaints in his heart and greeted him with a smile.

"Hello, Miss Liz."

The little girl at the head stopped and looked at him.

"I am Gao Jun from Yinyu. I have been here once before."

Liz looked at the business card handed over by the person in front of her, without any intention of reaching out.

It was the assistant behind her who stepped forward and took the business card.

"Mr. Gao, I think we have made it very clear. We have not received your company's sincerity so far."

Gao Jun nodded when he heard this, and hurriedly called to the people around him to hand over the gifts he had brought.

Then he presented the new project with both hands.

"We revised the plan overnight, and I believe your company will be satisfied with this plan."

Liz took it and browsed a few pages.

Gao Jun watched her every expression carefully, for fear of missing any expression.

Seeing Liz's eyes soften a little, Gao Jun's heart dropped a little.

"Do we have any plans today?" Liz suddenly asked.

The person behind her took a step forward, "The original plan was to go to Beicheng for inspection in the afternoon, but now something went wrong on the way to Beicheng."

Liz stroked the gift box given by Gao Jun with one hand.

"Really, what should I do?"

Of course Gao Jun heard what she meant.

"Mr. Cen gave me instructions before I set off, saying that I must invite you to come over and see how our company is doing."

Liz raised her eyebrows and responded with a smile.

"In this case, it's better to be respectful than to obey."

Gao Jun hurriedly led people out of the hotel, and hurriedly contacted Cen Qingyue on the way to Yinyu.

When the case was handed over to him, Mr. Cen said that Yinyu's performance in the second half of the year would depend on him.

The burden on our shoulders is very heavy.

Liz sat in the back seat and glanced at the car leading the way.

There was a gift box from Gao Jun beside her. She opened it, looked at it, and took a photo.

"Mr. Cen from Yinyu is quite willing to give this gift. This bag is a limited edition."

Ji Zhuo over there took a look, smiled and typed a few words before going out.

"They've already given it away, so just keep it. Ah Xuan won't ask for it from you."

"Of course, I deserve this. If it weren't for your call, I would have been on vacation at the beach right now. Remember to make up for my leave after this incident is over."

Listening to the voice coming from the mobile phone, Cen Xuan smiled and said nothing.

In order to gain the upper hand in the past two days, Cen Qingyue specially arranged for people to guard him at the hotel.

It seems that he is determined to win this project. Even though he has proposed to pay 30% in advance, he changed the contract overnight.

It is equivalent to showing 100% sincerity.

Cen Xuan speculated on her mobile phone. After the contract is signed, most of Yinyu's working capital will be locked up in the project.

If Cen Qingyue still wants to continue, he can only find a way to get investment or bank loans.

As long as more and more money is invested, it is inevitable that Yinyu's capital chain will not be able to sustain it.

"Ma'am, are you going out?"

Li He stood at the entrance and asked.

Cen Xuan nodded, "There is an art exhibition in the east of the city. My friend and I made an appointment to go there together."

Li He immediately ordered the following bodyguards to go ahead.

After what happened last time, Shen Jiyuan made adjustments to the people around Cen Xuan.

The number of people who are protected overtly and covertly has also increased.

"Have you found him yet?" Cen Xuan looked at him and asked.

Li He opened the car door for her, "Not yet."

Cen Xuan didn't ask any more questions. She was just as doubtful as Shen Jiyuan.

Who sent this person?

For the past three days, the Jianghuai police and Shen Jiyuan's people were looking for the truck driver that day, but the man just seemed to have disappeared from the world.

The car window slid down, and Cen Xuan looked at Li He outside the car with a sincere attitude.

"Assistant Li, please let me know when you find the person."

Li He nodded, "This is what it should be."

The black Maybach drove out of the underground garage.

When Li He raised his eyes, his eyes became sharper.

"Assistant Li, the person has been arrested. Do you want to send him to the police station?"

Li He shook his head, "Control the person first. Sir, I have something to ask."

The man was stunned for a moment. He never interfered too much in these matters.

Since he returned to Jianghuai, people who openly and secretly wanted to kill him have done so many times.

But my husband never took it seriously.

Are you going to go in person this time?

Downtown, Yinyu Building.

During working hours, there are many young people busy around here.

At the front desk of the company, the woman sitting there touching up her makeup looked at her slightly smeared eyeliner and took a tissue to wipe it with great displeasure.

"Go and make some coffee."

The manager in front came over and gave instructions.

Fang Linxia's dissatisfied eyes were reflected in the mirror, and she pressed the tissue at the end of her eyes harder.

"Why are you staring at me? You are the front desk. If you don't make coffee, who will? Hurry up."

The woman said and turned around on her high heels.

When I left, I was still mumbling.

"Everyone who comes here must be capable or well-connected. No matter how much the eldest lady values ​​her, she is still a front desk person. She can't even get into an ordinary position. What kind of situation are you setting up for me here?"

Fang Linxia listened to the harsh words and threw the tissue in her hand into the trash can.

She got up and went into the tea room. She looked at the machine that kept pouring hot water into the cup.

In order to calm the turmoil, the Jade Association gave up on her. Since the Jianghuai Jade Association had abandoned her, she was also involved in buying water stamps.

It is equivalent to being on the industry blacklist.

It is no longer possible for her to engage in any profession related to jade carving.

Cen Yao assigned her to Yin Yu as the receptionist, but this position was often the most popular one.

People from inside or outside can bully you. Reminiscing about the time when she was in the Jade Association, Fang Linxia felt so angry that her teeth itched with hatred.

"Hurry up."

The manager shouted impatiently in front of the tea room.

"What are you waiting for? I can't even make a few cups of coffee."

Fang Linxia took a deep breath and walked out of the tea room with coffee in hand.

The company's front desk usually receives company representatives who come to cooperate or media reporters who are doing interviews.

During this period, there was constant news about the Cen family, plus the attack on Cen Xuan two days ago.

Many media came over to interview Cen Qingyue after smelling the smell.

"Your coffee."

Fang Linxia put down the cup and turned around.

Before she could return to the front desk, someone rushed down from the elevator and almost knocked her down.

"You don't have eyes!"

The man cursed and went straight to the door without looking back.

Fang Linxia held on to the chair next to her and barely stood firm. Her ankle must have been sprained by such a collision.

"The QE representative is here. Hurry up and stand at the door. Don't stand here."

The manager hurried over and spoke to her.

"I sprained my ankle." Fang Linxia looked at her and explained.

The manager's eyes glanced at the high heels on her feet and he said something sinister.

"I thought it would be very comfortable to wear such expensive shoes to work. Even if you are injured, you still have to complete the work. You haven't gotten off work yet, so you should go and stand at the door immediately."

Fang Linxia, ​​who had never suffered like this before, wanted to refute but couldn't say anything.

Gao Jun led people to Yinyu's door.

Liz glanced at the people lining up to greet her at the door.

"There's no need to cause such a big fight, it's just an ordinary exchange and learning."

A group of people passed in front of Fang Linxia in a mighty manner.

The past two days of work had been hazy, and she didn't know who this person was.

"This contract is about to be signed. Will our bonus be doubled in the second half of the year?"

"Don't have such sweet dreams. The technical department and sales department are responsible for converting the bonus. What does it have to do with us?"

Fang Linxia looked at their leaving figures, lowered her eyes and thought.

Seeing that Yin Yu is getting better and better under Cen Qingyue's control, neither Cen Yao nor Cen Xuan will be doing well in the future.

"What are you thinking about? Go back to work quickly."

The manager on the side rolled his eyes at Fang Linxia.

"Manager, she is the eldest lady's friend. Isn't it wrong for you to do this?"

The front desk worker working with Fang Linxia reminded him.

When Fang Linxia came, it was Cen Yao who brought her here personally, and this person was covered in famous brands. Carrying a bag was equivalent to a year's salary for an ordinary person.

They usually didn't dare to provoke her, only the manager would yell at Fang Linxia.

"What a good friend she can be? Do I need to tell you who the eldest lady is? Her friends are all in the same circle. How can she come out to be the front desk? I'm afraid the eldest lady sees her as pitiful and rewards her with food. You guys Don’t forget to take it too seriously.”

This is also very reasonable.

People in Jianghuai's top circle are either rich or noble. The people Cen Yao usually interacts with most are people with a net worth of over 100 million.

How can I have a friend who works as a receptionist?

Isn't this clearly a charity?

Fang Linxia listened to the words of several people, and couldn't help but tighten her hands on the platinum leather buckle of her bag.

She used to be a rich young lady, and the Fang family was not weak in the past.

If it wasn't for his family's decline, why would he be looked down upon here?

……

The ink painting exhibition in the east of the city was jointly opened by several famous traditional Chinese painting masters in K country.

Landscapes, birds and animals are in a class of their own, achieving the ultimate resonance between humans and nature.

Such masters have rarely exhibited their works to the outside world in the past two years, and such ink painting exhibitions only happen once a year.

If you miss it, it will be gone.

She originally planned to ask Ji Yan to accompany her, but he changed his mind midway.

He said that she had no artistic talent, so she should have unilaterally canceled the scheduled date.

Cen Xuan didn't mean to force her, and her original intention of coming here to see the paintings was unclear.

The huge exhibition hall is divided into four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter. What you can see from the entrance is the spring scenery, and so on until winter.

Ink painting has shown signs of decline in recent years. For such an exhibition, there are far fewer young people than at an Impressionist oil painting exhibition.

Therefore, most of the people in the hall were Chinese painting students and mostly white-haired old men.

Cen Xuan walked forward along the exhibition hall, and unknowingly walked into autumn.

She remembered that her father once said before he died that if he wanted to carve a Zen ornament, the raw chalcedony stone would have pine wood.

But in order to achieve the unity of form and spirit, Cen Qingmu read a lot of information during that time and also visited many Chinese painting exhibitions.

I even went to the Jianghuai Museum to look at the jade carvings in its collection, hoping to get some different inspirations.

She never believed that her father, who took carving so seriously, would commit suicide on the third day after he started carving.

With Cen Qingmu's temperament, even if he really wanted to die, he would commit suicide after the Zen ornaments were completed.

So there must be something hidden in this.

"This lady has been staring at my evening maple picture for so long. Do you have any advice?"

He heard the steady male voice coming from behind him.

Cen Xuan turned around and greeted the visitor politely.

"I can't talk about advice, but there are indeed some issues that need to be discussed with Mr. Mo."

The man wore a sky-blue double-breasted short coat, and the gray hair on his temples made him even more approachable.

"Then please move to the tea room and have a cup of tea."

Cen Xuan followed the people back, past the Winter Exhibition Hall, and into the highly private tea room.

Master Mo sat at the table and made tea for her. The cleaned tea cup fell in front of Cen Xuan, and she thanked her.

"I'm sorry that I couldn't attend your father's funeral. He and I made an agreement that when people die, we just need to keep each other in our hearts. As for those false ceremonies, you don't have to attend."

Master Mo poured her a cup of chrysanthemum tea and spoke politely and modestly.

"You have kept your promise, so you have nothing to apologize to me for."

Master Mo looked at her and couldn't help but joke, "You're not here to hold me accountable for not going to the funeral, so what are you here for?"

Cen Xuan held the cup and asked straight to the point.

"My father met you several times before he passed away. Did he leave any words with you that you felt were wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Master Mo lowered his eyes and thought very seriously.

"We discussed the relationship between man and the universe, the boundary between life and death, and the relationship between man and nature. Every time we meet, we have endless things to talk about. What are you referring to?"

Cen Xuan looked at him steadily without saying a word.

Master Mo was the first to apologize to her.

"I'm sorry, I think of your father when I see you, don't pay attention."

Cen Xuan took a sip of tea.

Master Mo's expression became serious.

"The last time your father wanted to see me before he died, I happened to be on a business trip. I heard from the secretary that he brought a box. He also told me that he hoped I could help him keep some things."

Cen Qingmu didn't see him, so he didn't feel confident handing the box to anyone else.

He took it away by himself.

A few days later, Cen Qingmu died.
