The CEO cheated on his wife

On weekends, at 8 am.

Qiao Xi woke up early, but she was just lying on the bed, not wanting to move, very lazy.He is the only one who disturbs people's dreams early in the morning when the phone rings. Don't even think about it, Qiao Xi knows who it is——Lan Shimo.

In the past at this time, she would accompany Lan Shimo to the hospital to see him undergo recovery treatment.

However, recently, Qiao Xi felt a little tired, and today, she really didn't have the energy to go to Lan Shimo.

The phone rang incessantly. Qiao Xi got up, answered the call, and said weakly—"Hello."

"Are you uncomfortable?" Lan Shimo listened to her voice, very lifeless.

"Well, it's a little bit, so today, I can't accompany you." Qiao Xi said smoothly, she was really not energetic. "Or, let Ningning go with you."

Lan Ningning, a pretty little girl.

Recently, these few times, Lan Shimo went to the hospital for recovery treatment, and she also followed.Therefore, Qiao Xi and Lan Ningning are acquainted with each other.Ning Ning really doesn't feel like Miss Qianjin. Compared with Qin Lan and Bai Xue, Ning Ning is much more friendly.

"No need." Lan Shimo said softly: "I'm calling and calling you just to tell you that today my recovery treatment has been cancelled. There are still many things to do in my company, and they are still there Overtime, the last few times, I guess I won't be able to spare time to go to the hospital."

Qiao Xi frowned, and subconsciously asked, "Are you so busy?"

"Well, there's been a lot of things lately." Lan Shimo said in a word, not going deep into it, just talking more.

Qiao Xi wanted to ask something more, but when she heard Lan Shimo, someone was already calling him - calling him for a meeting.

Lan Shi silently responded, and then said to Qiao Xi: "I'm dead, you should have a good rest."

Obviously, he's really busy.

"Well, bye." Qiao Xi put down her phone, raised her head, her eyes were fixed on the ceiling, and her mind was distracted.

Lan Shimo is so busy, so is Bai Xiaofan also very busy?

That's why he was so busy that he forgot about everything, for example, her.

Qiao Xi sneered, and shook her head mockingly, thinking why bother to be so affectionate.

We are all adults, it's just a one-way affair, there's no need to take it to heart.You see, Shang Jing and Mu Xigu are also like this.

Although the relationship between her and Bai Xiaofan is very special, since he didn't come to look for her, it means that he doesn't take her seriously at all.

Then, why should she bind herself like a silkworm for him?

After washing her face and brushing her teeth, Qiao Xi cooked herself a sumptuous breakfast. In addition, the bacon that Qiao Ran brought earlier was her favorite.

However, after a few mouthfuls, Qiao Xi couldn't take it anymore, and felt that the taste had changed.

Recently, her appetite has been really poor. The dishes she usually likes to eat are placed in front of her, but she can't arouse her appetite, and her mood is not as clear as before.

It seems that she is really sick, heart disease.

A seed named Bai Xiaofan was planted in her heart, and it sprouted and blossomed, becoming more and more rampant and flourishing.If the root is not uprooted, she thought, the disease is hopeless.

She found the antidepressants prescribed by a psychiatrist. Since that night, she has stopped taking the medicine, did not take it, and did not want to take it.

Opening the toilet lid, Qiao Xi poured all the medicine inside into the toilet, and with a "click", the water washed everything away.

After taking the medicine, her condition did not improve.

Then, don't eat it at all, just see if you can fight poison with poison, and let the condition worsen.

***

Not wanting to stay at home alone, Qiao Xi had no choice but to go to Qiao Ran's house for dinner again.

Originally, she had made an appointment with Shang Jing, but in the end, this woman valued sex over friends, and temporarily regretted the appointment.I guess I went on a date with my boyfriend again.

A woman nourished by love is different.

How does she look like her?Depressed and resentful, it is estimated that a man has to turn around and run when he sees her.

However, recently, Shang Jing and Mu Xigu feel a little out of place.In the past, every time she mentioned Mu Xigu, Shang Jing either sneered or made a bad face.

Now...it is contemplation.

Qiao Ran's home.

Qiao Xi brought toys and cakes to the big fat pier and the little fat girl, and often came to the door to disturb them, always embarrassed.

Even though, Lu Cheng and Qiao Ran didn't mind.

The big fat pier and the little fat girl would still ask Bai Xiaofan when he would come back, and Qiao Xi's answer would still be the same: he is busy.

Fortunately, children are easier to pass away. With toys and cakes, they can be carefree and happy all day without endless questions.

Sometimes, when Qiao Xi looks at the big fat pier and the little fat girl, she will suddenly miss her childhood days...

At that time, I would not be unhappy like I am now, but pretend to be very happy...

After lunch, an unexpected visitor came to Qiao Ran's house.

I thought it was Gu Huaiyuan, but I didn't expect it to be - Bai Xue?

Qiao frowned and was taken aback: How did Bai Xue know this place?

"She said she was Bai Xiaofan's younger sister, so I let her in." Lu Cheng glanced at Bai Xue lightly, his face was very modest, but his tone was very awe-inspiring: "However, I would like to ask, how do you know about my family?"

"I asked someone to check." Bai Xue was targeting Qiao Xi, so she didn't take Lu Cheng seriously.

"Is that so—" Lu Cheng's eyes were slightly cold, with no modesty at all. "If something happens to my family in the future, I will put it all on you, or the Bai family, remember."

Bai Xue stared round and wanted to go back ironically, but for some reason, looking at Lu Cheng's expressionless face, she felt inexplicably as if she was being overwhelmed, and her aura was inferior to others.

Qiao Xi felt——Lu Cheng was angry.

To be honest, her cousin-in-law has a really good temper. At least, after marrying Qiao Ran for so long, she always treats Qiao Ran well, gentle and gentle.

He is a rare good man.

Only, when Lu Cheng is not smiling, he is very scary.

He smiled, but with great affinity.

There was something wrong with the atmosphere right now, Qiao Xi was hesitant and didn't know how to resolve it.Want to ask for help from the only hostess——Qiao Ran.

result!

This woman actually sat down with the big fat man and the little fat girl, eating cake...

Really, don't you see that the atmosphere is not right?

"Of course..." Qiao Xi called her.

"Ah?" Qiao Ran turned her head, not knowing why: "What's wrong?"

While talking, she came over while eating the cake, and saw that there was no expression on Lu Cheng's face, she immediately understood.So, with a smile on his face, he stuck to it, raised his wrist, and said: "Mr. Lu, this cake is delicious, come over and try it, otherwise, the big fat pier and the fat girl will eat it up."

Lu Cheng's face relaxed for a moment, and a smile slowly stained it.

"Of course, I don't like cake."

As always, he seems to have been saying this sentence since he first met Qiao Ran.

However, as always, Qiao Ran didn't listen to him, took his hand and went in.

In the end, he didn't forget to turn around and give Qiao Xi an "ok" gesture, signaling her to feel free.

Nemesis, really Lu Cheng's nemesis!

"Why did you come to see me?" Qiao Xi asked Bai Xue who was being left alone.

"I'll go out and find a place to talk." Bai Xue said on her own initiative.

Qiao Xi shook her head, didn't listen to her, and said coldly, "No, just say what you have to say here."

go out?Nope.

She did not forget that Fang Lanqiu planned the kidnapping last time.

Fang Lanqiu is from the Bai family and also Bai Xue's mentor. Who knows what Bai Xue is thinking now?

"Let's find a room and talk about it." Bai Xue gave in. She knew that the current Qiao Xi, unlike the previous Qiao Xi, was not so easy to bully.

Qiao Xi nodded, and led Bai Xue upstairs, into the small side hall, and then closed the door.

Two people, one sitting on the sofa on one side, neither of them spoke, there was an eerie silence.

Qiao Xi waited patiently, waiting for Bai Xue's next words——

Finally, Bai Xue lowered her face: "You can persuade brother Xiaofan, if he continues like this, it won't work. My dad will drive him out of Bai's house."

"Why? What happened?" Qiao Xi asked, but she probably thought of what was going on.

The company under Bai Xiaofan's management is not optimistic recently.

But just because of this, Bai Xiaofan has to be driven out of the Bai family. Mr. Bai is really a profit-seeking businessman.

"Brother Xiaofan's company has suffered serious losses recently. Not only did he fail to make money this quarter, he even halved the company's market price. If this continues, it will be very dangerous, and the company may be acquired at any time. I'm afraid my dad..." Bai Xue had a worried face and didn't say any more.

But, Qiao Xi understands!

"But even so, what's the use of you coming to me? How can I persuade Bai Xiaofan?" Qiao Xi was puzzled.

In such a big business competition, what effect can a sentence or two of her persuasion play?

Even if she can really persuade Bai Xiaofan, but can she persuade Bai Xiaofan's opponent?

"What on earth do you want? I've put my face down and begged you, so can't you cooperate? You know how much brother Xiaofan values ​​you, but he is only willing to listen to you now. If you don't persuade him, he will go his own way." Go on, how serious the consequences are, do you know?"

Bai Xue's tone was very excited, she stroked her neck, thinking that Bai Xiaofan wanted to kill Qiao Xi just because of Qiao Xi that day...

In the bottom of my heart, I couldn't help feeling sad.

Qiao Xi frowned, lowered her eyes, and meditated.

Why doesn't she want to contribute, even though, recently, she and Bai Xiaofan are not so happy...

However, she also works in the company and earns a considerable salary every month. Of course, she doesn't want Bai Xiaofan's company to fail, but...

Qiao Xi raised her eyes, looked at Bai Xue, and asked a series of questions: "Tell me first, what do you know? What is going on here? What is the other party's purpose, and why did they target Bai Xiaofan's company?

"I don't know much, but I overheard my brother and my dad talking in the study before. It is said that some time ago, an invisible giant from city M came to the capital and met with people from the Lan family many times. Now , Even the Mu family has begun to move around. Although it is not clear what this person wants to do in the capital, after he came, Brother Xiaofan's company began to suffer a series of secret suppression. Moreover, As far as this person's actions are concerned, it must be for profit."

As soon as Bai Xue finished speaking, the door of the small side hall was opened. She looked nervously and saw that the person who came in was Lu Cheng.

"Of course I made scented tea for you." Lu Cheng came to work as Qiao Ran's servant

"I'm sorry, cousin-in-law." Qiao Xi thanked her, but the thoughts in her heart were very chaotic!

City m, Lan Shimo...

She only thought of one person!

"What are you talking about?" Lu Cheng sat down, as if he had no intention of leaving.

"It's just some..." Qiao Xi didn't intend to hide it.

But, as soon as he started, Bai Xue called out viciously—"Qiao Xi!"

So, Qiao Xi had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.

This matter is regarded as a commercial secret of the Bai family, and it is really not good to tell Lu Cheng about it.

Although, she intends to ask her cousin-in-law for advice, but...forget it.

"Qiao Xi, you remember what I told you clearly. You must go and persuade brother Xiaofan, understand?" Bai Xue repeatedly reminded and told Qiao Xi.

Then, she glanced at Lu Cheng, "I'll go first."

After Bai Xue left, Qiao Xi sorted out her thoughts, looked at Lu Cheng who was drinking Qiao Ran's scented tea, and subconsciously asked him: "Brother-in-law, didn't you say you were transferred from City M to work in Beijing?"

"Yeah." Lu Cheng nodded, and asked again: "What's wrong?"

Qiao Xi thought about it: "Then... When you were in M ​​City, did you know who the invisible giant in M ​​City is?"

"Invisible giant? I don't know, I haven't heard of it." Lu Chengning frowned, confused and didn't know him.

"Really..." Qiao Xi let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing that something was wrong with Qiao Xi, Lu Cheng asked, "Did something happen?"

"It's nothing, I'm leaving first." Qiao Xi got up and was about to leave.

"Go back so early?" Lu Cheng glanced at his watch, it was only after 3:[-] noon. "I'll see you off."

"No need." Qiao Xi politely declined Lu Cheng's offer. "I'm going to find Gu Huaiyuan."

"Ok?"

"I want to talk to him about something."

After finishing speaking, Qiao Xi hurriedly said goodbye to Lu Cheng, and hurriedly left the small side hall.

The moment she turned to go out, Lu Cheng's expression changed and his eyes were cold.

***

Qiao Xi called Gu Huaiyuan.

She knew Gu Huaiyuan's number, he had given her a business card without revealing the company name.

Dial the number, the call is answered, it is Gu Huaiyuan's voice.

Qiao Xi didn't talk nonsense, and got straight to the point: "Do you have time? I want to meet you."

Gu Huaiyuan's quiet but smiling voice came: "This is the first time you have taken the initiative to call me."

Qiao Xi didn't care about this, and only asked the main point: "Is it okay? Can I see you now?"

"Okay, come to Shengdun Hotel to find me, I'll wait for you." After finishing speaking, Gu Huaiyuan hung up the phone without giving Qiao Xi any time to react.

Obviously, the only way to meet him is to go to his hotel room and meet him.

Qiao Xi clenched her lips, embarrassed.

Gu Huaiyuan is her suitor, she is not very familiar with him, but now, she is going to look for him in his room, feeling - there are many variables!

But, don't see him, no!

Qiao Xi wanted to clarify some things, for example, whether Gu Huaiyuan was an invisible giant from M city.

Another example, is he the one who suppressed Bai Xiaofan's company behind the scenes?

Hiring a taxi, Qiao Xi got in the car, reported the name of Shengdun Hotel, and then called Shang Jing...

***

San Dun Hotel, inside the presidential suite.

Gu Huaiyuan was wearing a casual white shirt and black slacks, with bare feet, stepping on a soft blanket imported from Italy.

A casual look at home.

On the log round table of the suite, there is a small and exquisite crystal flower statue, which contains half of the water and a black-red rose.

The flower is about to wither.

No matter how good the water quality is, no matter how good the environment is, it will not last long.

Gu Huaiyuan lowered his head slightly, the sunlight outside the floor-to-ceiling windows poured on his face, a golden light blurred the expression on his face.

This rose was given to him by Qiao Xi that day.He has been raising it until now, and it seems that it is about to die...

At this time, the extension rang, and it was the general manager of the hotel—"Mr. Gu, there is a Miss Qiao Xi looking for you."

"Bring her up."
