my name, your last name
Chapter 12 God's Equally Distributed Gift
Chapter 12 God's Equally Distributed Gift
Qin Wanfeng's birthday reception was scheduled to be held at the banquet hall of a five-star hotel at noon on the weekend. The snow stopped a little that day, and the weather was gloomy and cold.Gan Lu and Shang Xiuwen went there on time, and found that the scale of the reception was not very large, but the ostentation was not small. Apart from relatives and friends, all the people who came were prominent figures in the local political and business circles.
Lu Huining was busy greeting the guests, and was very happy to see her daughter and son-in-law coming, so she hurriedly took them to see Qin Wanfeng.
I saw a man and woman who looked like a married couple of about 50 years old standing and talking with Qin Wanfeng. The wife, Gan Lu, knew her. She was Shen Sirui's mother, Liu Yuping. She couldn't help being surprised when she saw Gan Lu. When the man saw Shang Xiuwen, his expression was a little strange.
In the end, Shen Sirui was deducted 40 moral education credits by the school, plus a demerit penalty. According to the general teacher's opinion, strictly following the school rules, smoking alone is enough to get a warning. Teacher, it is not too much to remember a serious mistake or even persuade you to quit.This treatment is naturally a lenient punishment.
The disciplinary decision requires the signatures of the Political and Educational Office, the class teacher, the teacher, and the parents. These procedures have nothing to do with Gan Lu. It’s just that when she was leaving get off work, Liu Yuping happened to sign it and was about to get into the Mercedes-Benz 600 driven by her family’s driver.Liu Yuping greeted Gan Lu very affectionately and insisted on seeing her off. She quickly said that she was waiting for someone, so she declined.Now that she met Liu Yuping face to face, Gan Lu realized that the person standing next to her should be Shen Jiaxing, the boss of Sino Land.
Sure enough, Shang Xiuwen nodded to the man calmly: "Mr. Shen, hello."
Shen Jiaxing nodded to Shang Xiuwen hastily, Liu Yuping greeted Gan Lu, and looked at Shang Xiuwen suspiciously, but said nothing, Shen Jiaxing exchanged greetings with Qin Wanfeng and hurried away.
Qin Zhan came over to remind Lu Huining to greet the other wives. Gan Lu introduced to Qin Wanfeng: "Uncle Qin, this is my husband Shang Xiuwen."
Qin Wanfeng shook hands with Shang Xiuwen, and Shang Xiuwen presented a gift: "Mr. Qin, I wish you a happy birthday, and your longevity is better than Nanshan."
Qin Wanfeng quickly took it over: "You're too polite, you don't mind if I call you Xiuwen?"
Shang Xiuwen smiled slightly: "That's natural."
At this time, a slightly shrill voice came from behind them: "President Qin, happy birthday. I sent a gift for our Chairman Chen, which can be counted as my borrowing flowers to present Buddha."
They turned their heads and saw that it was He Jingyi who came. She was wearing a well-fitting silver-gray suit with a slender waist, slender legs, and her hair was still tied into a small bun, revealing a smooth forehead, very clean and neat.Behind her was a young man who looked like an assistant, holding a white jade Buddha statue with a red sandalwood seat in both hands respectfully.Qin Wanfeng hurried to pick it up, and He Jingyi took advantage of the opportunity to take the gift that Shang Xiuwen had just handed over to him: "Let me get it for you."
Qin Wanfeng looked at the shiny and warm Jade Buddha in his hand: "Chairman Chen is really caring. Miss He, thank him for me. I couldn't meet him last time I went to Beijing. I wonder what he is busy with now?"
He Jingyi smiled: "The chairman may come to the local area after the next year to preside over the signing ceremony of several important cooperation projects, and I will definitely come to visit you then." She looked at the gift in her hand, rubbed her fingers, her face The expression on the face suddenly darkened, "Montblanc's limited edition pen, good taste." She handed the pen to Qin Zhan who rushed over, then looked at Shang Xiuwen, and added in a drawn-out voice, "It's really good taste .”
Gan Lu's heart beat faster.
After Shang Xiuwen picked up Gan Lu from get off work the day before, she said that she was going to the mall to pick out a gift for Qin Wanfeng, and at the same time she frowned and said with a smile: "Hey, giving gifts to rich people is the most troublesome thing. He doesn't have anything. I gritted my teeth and paid for it." Send it over, I don’t know where he will throw it in a corner where it will never see the light of day.”
Shang Xiuwen also laughed: "Then you don't need to buy it. When it comes to not seeing the sun, I happen to have a Montblanc pen in my drawer. It was a gift from someone else. It has never been used, so I can get it out."
Gan Lu didn't expect him to mention the pen so casually, and she couldn't help but feel ashamed again for the wild guesses she made when she was digging through his drawers. She was glad that she didn't ask questions rashly, and immediately agreed to his arrangement.
But at this moment, she clearly saw the flash of anger and resentment in He Jingyi's eyes, and she almost immediately concluded that this sum must have a lot to do with the other party.If she had known this in advance, and knew that He Jingyi would also be present, she would not have agreed to Shang Xiuwen's passing the pen as a gift to Qin Wanfeng. In her opinion, this kind of behavior was not considered venting, and would only cause trouble for nothing.
However, Shang Xiuwen only showed a little surprise the moment he saw He Jingyi. At this time, his expression was calm and there was no abnormality. There was still a slight smile on the corner of his mouth. He ignored He Jingyi's sharp eyes and greeted her politely: " Hello, Miss He."
"Good evening, Mr. Shang and Mrs. Shang," He Jingyi had regained her composure, "I'll go in first."
She followed Qin Zhan in and took a seat.Gan Lu and Shang Xiuwen were about to go in, but Qin Yanzhi and Nie Qian came in while talking.These two people will appear together, which is a big surprise to Gan Lu.
Qin Yanzhi saw Gan Lu at a glance, walked over directly, and said with a smile: "Lulu, this gentleman should be my brother-in-law, please introduce to us."
"Shang Xiuwen, my husband; Qin Yanzhi, President Qin's daughter."
Shang Xiuwen nodded to her: "Miss Qin, hello."
"It's really natural, you two, you two, call me Miss Qin, and my dad will inevitably ask me if I'm playing Missy again, and I don't know what my aunt will say."
Gan Lu also smiled and said, "Zhizhi, I don't know what President Qin will say, and my mother probably won't have the leisure to judge you."
"I almost forgot, you have a sharp mouth since you were young." Qin Yanzhi smiled meaningfully, "However, I am very happy to see you frequently appearing in my house recently. I heard that your husband has recently lost his job, so I need my father to pay attention There is no suitable position, can you arrange something for him?"
Before Gan Lu could speak, Shang Xiuwen stretched out his hand to hold her waist, gestured slightly with his fingers, and then opened his mouth in a clear voice: "Thank you, Mr. Qin, for being considerate." He looked at Qin Yanzhi directly, with a polite and slightly amused expression on his face. With ridicule, without a trace of discomfort, "But right now I have no plan to come out and look for a job."
Nie Qian came from behind and said jokingly: "Ms. Qin is very thirsty for talents recently. She is recruiting talents for Chairman Qin. She even asked me if I would like to work in Wanfeng."
He said this half-jokingly, and the atmosphere finally eased a little.Qin Zhan also came out, frowned and looked at Qin Yanzhi: "Zhizhi, you are also the host today, hurry up and greet the guests."
Qin Yanzhi looked at her cousin with a smile: "Ah Zhan, why didn't you call your new girlfriend over? Anyway, she knows Lulu well."
Gan Lu couldn't help being puzzled, and looked at Qin Zhan, who seemed a little embarrassed for a moment, shrugged and didn't say anything.
Qin Yanzhi curled her lips amusedly: "Lulu, you see that you and my family have a very deep relationship, your mother married my father, and your good friend is now dating my cousin, and it was before he and Xiaopan officially broke up. When I take advantage of the situation..."
"Zhizhi—" Qin Zhan interrupted her, obviously a little annoyed.
But Qin Yanzhi took his arm mischievously, and said affectionately: "Ah Zhan, your skin is still so thin that you can't be shredded. What's the matter, it's just a change of girlfriend." She smiled as if It was just a harmless joke just now, Qin Zhan couldn't help but shook his head helplessly.
Nie Qian, who had been watching coldly, said, "Go in and sit down, the guests seem to be almost here."
Qin Zhan remembered his responsibilities and hurriedly asked them to go in and take a seat. Qin Yanzhi and Nie Qian walked in front, Gan Lu fell behind, and sighed softly to Shang Xiuwen: "I really shouldn't be with them."
Shang Xiuwen said casually: "Lulu, God does not distribute wealth equally, but when he distributes people you don't like as relatives and friends, it is very even, don't mind."
Qin Zhan handed cigarettes to Shang Xiuwen, Shang Xiuwen politely declined: "Thank you, I quit smoking recently."
Qin Zhan put the cigarette case in front of Nie Qian and said with a smile, "Lulu, if I ask you something, your husband won't mind?"
Gan Lu didn't know what he was going to do, so she got up and followed him to the window on the side of the hall: "Why, so mysterious."
Qin Zhan said in a low voice, "Lulu, I've been wanting to ask you for a few days, what is the origin of that Nie Qian?"
Gan Lu couldn't help laughing: "You don't know where he came from, why invite him to the banquet."
"Don't get me wrong," Qin Zhan said with a smile, "it's not that I have nothing to do to investigate his details. It's just... that girl Zhizhi suddenly fell out with Steven, and the two had a big fight. Back to the United States. Suddenly, for some reason, she became very close to Nie Qian."
Gan Lu stared blankly at such an unimaginable development, and then involuntarily looked at Nie Qian. Qin Yanzhi was sitting beside him, whispering something to him. On the contrary, he looked very excited and smiled at Yanyan.
Gan Lu was instinctively surprised by this scene, and at the same time remembered Qin Yanzhi's sarcasm just now, and thought, if Qin Yanzhi knew that Nie Qian was her ex-boyfriend, what kind of expression would Qin Yanzhi make and what strange words would she say.Thinking of this, she couldn't laugh or cry, but of course she didn't intend to take the initiative to say anything.
"Uncle and I are very puzzled. I only know that Nie Qian is a professional manager hired by Lao Shen at a high price. His performance and ability are outstanding in the industry. We don't know anything else. Zhizhi is crazy. , but the mind is actually pure, we are afraid of her..." Qin Zhan seemed to be a little embarrassed.
"Are you afraid that she will be deceived? I heard that rich people will inevitably worry about other people approaching for other purposes. Qin Zhan, it's rare that you have always been close to the people." Gan Lu said with a smile and sarcasm.
Qin Zhan was a little embarrassed: "It's not as serious as you said. In fact, Uncle thinks that Nie Qian is a rare talent with outstanding abilities. He can be regarded as condescending to Lao Shen."
"I'm afraid I don't have much information to contribute. I can only tell you that Nie Qian is my middle school senior with good grades. He is a talented student in the Department of Architecture of a prestigious school. You probably have to find out the rest yourself."
Qin Zhan smiled helplessly: "I know you don't like Zhizhi, she is indeed a bit too much sometimes, but she really has no evil intentions, she is just willful."
Gan Lu said bluntly: "If she wants to be self-willed, if she wants to act like a baby with her father or you, that's her right. Even if she wants to fight against my mother, I don't care. My mother married a man with a daughter. I should know what problems I'm going to face, and it's not my turn to worry about her. But I have no reason to swallow other people's provocations."
"Okay, okay," Qin Zhan smiled good-naturedly, "You can do whatever you want, and I'm sure I won't get sidetracked again."
"Okay, it's my turn to ask you, what did Qin Yanzhi say about your new girlfriend?"
Qin Zhan said nonchalantly, "It's true that Jiaxi and I get along very well, but we haven't reached that point yet."
Gan Lu stared at him in disbelief, thinking that she hadn't said a word to Qian Jiaxi on the phone a few days ago, otherwise, it would be a little strange to keep her close friend so tight: "Qin Zhan, don't you You messed with Jia Xi before you broke up with your girlfriend."
"Xiao Pan and I have already broken up." Qin Zhan spread his hands, "Don't listen to Zhizhi's nonsense. The food has started, let's go in."
"Wait a minute, does the company He Jingyi works for have any business relationship with Wanfeng Real Estate?"
"Do you know He Jingyi too? Uncle and Yixin's boss, Chen Hua, have known each other for a few years. It's kind of friendly. Yixin has just entered the local area. Their real estate business scope is mainly concentrated in the field of commercial and industrial real estate. It is said that they will be in He Jingyi, on behalf of Yixin, came to meet with Uncle on behalf of Yixin to choose projects locally to make large-scale real estate investment, and the specific cooperation is not yet discussed.”
Gan Lu nodded: "Well, let's go in."
However, when she walked over, Gan Lu couldn't help being stunned, He Jingyi didn't know when she sat in the seat she had sat on Shang Xiuwen's left, and the two of them were talking about something.Seeing Gan Lu, she had no intention of getting up at all: "The table over there is full of old gentlemen and old ladies. It's very boring. I sit here, Mrs. Shang, don't you mind?"
Gan Lu was very concerned, but it was impossible to say anything, so she could only smile slightly: "Please go ahead."
Shang Xiuwen had already stood up, and pulled the chair on the right for her: "Lulu, sit over here."
It was unavoidable to sit with Nie Qian, while Qin Yanzhi was looking at her with an expression of ready to watch a good show.She sat down calmly and ignored the others.
Qin Wanfeng stepped onto the small stage in the banquet hall, and raised his glasses to thank all the friends for their presence. Everyone stood up and raised their glasses to each other.After sitting down, Qin Yanzhi noticed that Shang Xiuwen and Gan Lu didn't take the cups with Wuliangye and red wine in front of them, but one drank tea and the other drank fruit juice. Happy birthday dad, you should have a little drink."
Nie Qian beckoned the waiter to come over and add juice to Gan Lu: "I remember that Gan Lu was allergic to alcohol and never drank."
Qin Yanzhi glanced at him, "What about Mr. Shang?"
Shang Xiuwen signaled the waiter to refill the tea for him: "I don't drink alcohol, so I'll toast Mr. Qin with tea instead of wine later."
"Xiuwen, you drank alcohol when we were eating together two months ago, but I don't know why you quit suddenly." He Jingyi sat upright and said thoughtfully.
Shang Xiuwen's voice was very calm and calm: "I recently quit smoking and drinking."
"Could it be that you and your wife have family plans?"
Such an abrupt question made Gan Lu frown slightly, but Shang Xiuwen only smiled slightly, and looked back at Gan Lu with gentle eyes, a gesture of complete acquiescence.Under his gaze, Gan Lu also smiled, and then Shang Xiuwen met He Jingyi's aggressive gaze: "Since it's a family plan, there seems to be no need to discuss it with everyone here."
After a few dishes were served, Shang Xiuwen's cell phone rang. He looked at the number, said "I'm sorry", and went out to answer it.
He Jingyi looked at Gan Lu carelessly: "Mrs. Shang, if I remember correctly, you are a teacher. The school should be on holiday now, right?"
Gan Lu nodded perfunctorily.
"Do you have any plans for the holidays?"
"I still have to study during the holidays."
"Oh, that's it. I've been meeting Xiuwen in City J these days. I guess he may have to stay there a lot recently. It's a pity that you don't follow him to accompany him."
Gan Lu looked at her amusedly: "Miss He, thank you for your concern..." Shang Xiuwen suddenly turned back, put his hand on her shoulder, and said softly, "Lulu, I'm afraid I have to leave early."
"what happened?"
"I have to get to Brazil right away."
Before Gan Lu could speak, He Jingyi had already spoken: "Xiuwen, is there something going on with Shaokun?"
Shang Xiuwen seemed to be taken aback suddenly, then looked at her sharply, then shook his head: "He's fine. I'm sorry everyone, I'll take a step first."
Gan Lu raised her eyes, and met He Jingyi's gaze, looking at them unabashedly.Although she was full of doubts, she nodded with her expression unchanged, stood up, and said softly, "I'll go back and help you pack your luggage." Then she raised her voice and said to Qin Zhan, "Qin Zhan, help tell Uncle Qin I'm sorry, we have to take a step ahead."
After leaving the hotel, Shang Xiuwen started the car and drove onto the main road, saying: "Shaokun had an accident in Brazil. He was accused of participating in money laundering and has been invited to accept police investigation. I have to rush there immediately."
Gan Lu was taken aback. The word money laundering sounded distant and dangerous, a bit beyond her comprehension: "Is it important?"
"It's hard to say now. His company is engaged in import and export trade, and Xu Sheng also imports a small amount of iron ore as an agent. It is very troublesome to get involved in this kind of accusation."
Gan Lu hesitated: "Does Miss He know Shaokun?"
"They knew each other before." Shang Xiuwen said lightly, "But it should be a long time since we had no contact."
"Then why does she think of Shaokun when she hears Brazil?"
Shang Xiuwen's expression looked the same as before, but Gan Lu was already familiar with his subtle expressions. From the movement of his jaw, he realized that he had clenched his teeth.After a long pause, he opened his mouth in a gentle voice: "I also find this very strange. Even if Shaokun has contact with her, it is impossible to inform her after the accident. I'm afraid I can't explain exactly what she is. What's the meaning."
Gan Lu looked out the window silently, and found that there were small snowflakes in the sky again, and it was gradually getting bigger.Such a severe cold and snowy winter, as far as she can remember, is very rare in the local area.
Shang Xiuwen concentrated on driving the car, and soon approached their residence, drove the car straight into the underground garage, backed it into the parking space and parked it, then looked back at Gan Lu with a very serious expression: "I guess she will tell you In other words, Lulu, sometimes it may be by chance; sometimes, she may even come to you specifically. I don’t know what else she will say. I can only tell you one thing. If you have any doubts, remember Ask me first, don't judge by her words."
Gan Lu followed him to get off the car and walked to the elevator. Finally, she couldn't help herself and asked sullenly, "Xiuwen, she is a professional woman and holds a high position, so she should be very busy. According to you, your affairs have long since passed. What's the reason for her to be so entangled with me?"
Shang Xiuwen pressed the up button and stared at the floor display: "About this, I'm afraid I can't give you a clear explanation. She and I are indeed in the past, maybe she has a different view on the past than I do." He didn't look back, and stretched out his hand to take her into his arms, "But I know very well that for me, being with you now is the most important thing."
The elevator stopped in front of them without a sound, Gan Lu walked in with him, tightly held one of his arms, and pressed her face against it.
After listening to Shang Xiuwen's brief explanation, Wu Lijun frowned immediately: "Why did he cause trouble again? Didn't he hire a lawyer? What's the use of you going?"
Shang Xiuwen checked the flight on the Internet with his mobile phone, and said flatly: "The Brazilian judicial system is not very sound, and this kind of thing doesn't just need a lawyer."
"But now Xusheng's merger has reached a critical moment, and you are going abroad, what if something happens?"
Gan Lu is a bit strange about her mother-in-law's thinking. How can Shang Shaokun say that he is also the cousin of the Shang family. After being adopted, he is regarded as a stepson. His fate in a foreign country, but he only cares about Xu Sheng's long-pending merger, which is too obvious.
She didn't want to get involved in the quarrel between the mother and the son, so she hurried upstairs to pack her luggage, and asked Shang Xiuwen from the stairs: "Xiuwen, do you want to bring a suit?"
The two people downstairs are still arguing, the voices are not loud, Wu Lijun speaks a little faster, Shang Xiuwen is as usual, but they are obviously not giving in to each other.I only heard Shang Xiuwen say in a conclusive tone: "Mom, we don't need to discuss this matter anymore." Then he raised his voice and answered her: "Just bring one set is enough."
I don't know since when, when Shang Xiuwen went on a business trip, he always reported the schedule to her and let her prepare the luggage.She estimated the weather in Brazil, which is located in the southern hemisphere, and put in a thin gray suit, matched it with a matching shirt and tie, and prepared several sets of casual clothes.Her movements have always been neat, and when Shang Xiuwen came up after talking with his mother, she was almost packed.
Shang Xiuwen opened the drawer and took out his passport, then handed the car keys to his wife: "The weather is bad, don't take the bus, and drive directly to work in the future, just be careful."
Gan Lu nodded. She has had her driver's license for more than a year. Shang Xiuwen handed her the keys from time to time and encouraged her to drive more. Her skills are not bad: "I'll take you to the airport."
When the two went downstairs, Wu Lijun had already returned to her room, Shang Xiuwen only stood at the door of her room to say hello, and then went out with Gan Lu to the airport.
Shang Xiuwen booked the nearest flight to Beijing. After changing the boarding pass and checking in his luggage, he checked that there was still some time, and the two of them sat down in the departure hall.
Gan Lu asked, "Why doesn't your mother agree with you going to Brazil?"
"She is mainly worried about Xusheng's annexation of the smelter, and she is afraid that uncle will not be able to handle it. I made it clear to her that it is impossible to have a clear conclusion before the Spring Festival. I will settle there as soon as possible and come back as soon as possible. What's the delay?" Shang Xiuwen seemed to hesitate for a moment, then smiled wryly, "As for Shaokun, he and my mother haven't spoken to each other for several years."
Gan Lu was startled, but she didn't intend to get to the bottom of it, so she put her hand in his hand silently, and he held it tightly: "Shaokun was very unruly when he was a child, and his parents passed away one after another, so he was unavoidably withdrawn, but that was all in the past. He and my father had a very good relationship, and he was always a bit brooding about his sudden death, and felt that my mother was responsible for not taking good care of him."
This was the second time he mentioned his father who died of a heart attack to Gan Lu, and the wry smile at the corner of his mouth was still a bit bleak: "Actually, if you really investigate it seriously, maybe Shaokun has more reasons to blame me."
"Birth, old age, sickness and death, no one can avoid it. He shouldn't blame you or mother."
"No, some things shouldn't have happened." Shang Xiuwen shook his head, his expression getting darker.
"Actually, I think you and Shaokun seem to have a very good relationship, like brothers."
Gan Lu clearly remembered that at the end of their honeymoon in the Maldives, Shang Shaokun came from the United States to meet them.After exchanging pleasantries, she went to the SPA alone to rest her sunburned skin. When she came back, she saw the two brothers sitting on the terrace of the water house drinking wine. The sun was setting and cast their shadows into the house Come, they didn't talk too much, but the intimacy and tacit understanding between each other is obvious.
"Yeah, we've always had a good relationship, so he didn't blame me, he just blamed my mother." Shang Xiuwen looked at the hurried passengers in front of him, "I'll talk to you later when I have time. It's the Chinese New Year I don't know how long I'm going to stay there, if I don't come back in time, you can spend more time with my mother, she is also very lonely."
After Gan Lu sent Shang Xiuwen to the security check, she drove back alone.The sky was overcast and cloudy, and the snow fell from time to time, almost without a pause. Like this weather, her mood was a little inexplicably heavy, but at the same time a little comforting.
She wasn't ashamed of her mother's second marriage, but she never wanted to associate herself with the large family that came with that marriage.Shang Xiuwen also rarely mentioned his previous life, his family, his father who died young.
Now that they both had stepped into parts of each other that hadn't been open to them before, she realized for the first time that this kind of penetration into each other's lives was completely normal for a marriage.After all, she thought, they were off to a good start.
Shang Xiuwen got a visa in Beijing, successfully transferred to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and called back to report that he was safe.Gan Lu began to participate in the study organized by the school. Although she came and went on time every day, it was easier than going to work after all.The heavy snow that has become a disaster that plagued the whole country has finally stopped, but the weather is still very cold, and it is much more convenient to drive to and from.
Shang Xiuwen didn't come back until she finished her studies and officially started her vacation. He only called and said that Shang Shaokun's matter was not serious, mainly due to being implicated by others, but the situation was more complicated than expected, and he might have to delay it until after the Spring Festival .Hearing the news, Wu Lijun didn't show any worry, she just said lightly: "Just think about it yourself."
Gan Lu did a lot of research on the situation in Brazil on the Internet, and only carefully told him to pay attention to the poor security there. Shang Xiuwen agreed, and in turn comforted her, that the place is not as chaotic as the Internet said.
On the day before New Year's Eve, Gan Lu did not set an alarm clock to wake herself up for the first time, she fell asleep as much as she wanted, until the mobile phone kept ringing on the bedside table, she barely struggled to get it, and answered sleepily: "Hello? "
Shang Xiuwen called from Brazil, he was a little surprised: "Lulu, are you still sleeping?"
"Sleeping in in winter is one of the great pleasures in life, and..." Gan Lu said while huddling under the quilt, "I've lived here for so long, isn't it too much to sleep in?"
Shang Xiuwen was startled, knowing that she was telling the truth.Since she came to live here, Wu Lijun got up on time no matter it was weekends or winter and summer vacations. Naturally, Gan Lu was too embarrassed to stay in bed, so she had to get up to make breakfast like on weekdays.He said that he could discuss it with his mother and let her sleep more on weekends or holidays, but she immediately stopped her, saying that it was not necessary.
"Is mom not home?"
"She went to the province for a meeting yesterday, and she just came back tonight."
"Sorry, Lulu."
Gan Lu smiled and said, "Hey, why did you suddenly say sorry to me? I heard that South American girls are unrestrained and sexy. Tell me honestly, did you go to a porn dance, or did you strike up a conversation with a woman in a bar?"
Shang Xiuwen was startled, and after a while, he laughed muffledly: "Well, they are indeed very enthusiastic. Now I am very considerate of Shaokun complaining about the poor security here, and at the same time staying here for at least four or five months a year."
"I'm talking about the main point, is there anything?" "I'm not in that mood." Shang Xiuwen sighed, "Stupid boy, I'm sorry for not being able to let you sleep in after marrying me. "
"Oh, this. It's nothing. It's boring to sleep late every day. It's good to sleep once in a while. It's so comfortable." She stretched her body under the warm quilt, "What time is it?"
"It's almost eleven o'clock at night here."
Gan Lu talked with him during this time, and already understood the time difference between the two places: "I actually slept until ten o'clock in the morning, which is unprecedented. Alas, I seem to be very tired these days, and the more I sleep, the sleepier I get. But I can wake up now." , Sister Hu will come over later to do the cleaning."
"Lie down for a while and don't move."
She had already stood up, listened to his words, lay down again, and buried her head comfortably in the pillow: "Xiuwen, why are you still up so late, is there something wrong with Shaokun?"
"Fortunately, his company was only implicated, and he is a British citizen. The lawyer believes that the probability of him being cleared of the charges is relatively high."
"That's good," Gan Lu had a good impression of Shang Shaokun, and she was also happy for him when she heard the news, "Then why can't you sleep, are you worried about Xu Sheng?"
"I just miss you, Lulu, and I can't sleep because of the thought. If only you were lying next to me now."
Shang Xiuwen's voice came over a little hoarse, such a long distance seemed to add an indescribable tenderness to the voice, Gan Lu only felt a softness from the fingertips holding the phone to her heart, and her voice felt a little soft. Choked, and after a while, he whispered: "I miss you too."
The two of them fell silent at the same time, and there was only a faint rustling sound in the receiver. At this moment, the landline on the bedside table rang suddenly. She hated this disturbing interruption, but she had no choice but to get up to answer it.It was actually Wu Lijun who called back, and she immediately said, "Xiao Gan, you should contact your cousin immediately, find her, and advise her to go home immediately."
Gan Lu couldn't help being puzzled: "Mom, what's wrong with my cousin, where can I find her?"
Wu Lijun's voice was clearly disturbed, but at the same time she managed to keep her voice down: "I just received a call from your uncle. It is said that she heard some rumors and came to us from J City to have a showdown with Wu Wei's lover. How decent is it? I'm in a meeting now, you go to her and try to persuade her. "
Gan Lu had to agree to do so, put down the phone, and said to the phone while getting up, "You heard it all. My God, it's such a big city, where do I go to find her?"
Shang Xiuwen was very annoyed and helpless: "You call the third child first, he should deal with this kind of matter himself."
"Well, okay, I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to change my clothes."
"Drive carefully, if you need anything, call me immediately."
Gan Lu hurriedly washed and changed her clothes, and then called Wu Wei's cell phone: "Third brother, please give me some instructions, where should I find my sister-in-law?"
Wu Wei was in a bit of a panic. He had just been scolded by his father and aunt respectively. After answering his phone, his wife sneered when she heard his threats: "Wu Wei, you figure it out. Now you kneel down and beg me, why don't you just ask me?" It depends on whether I'm in a good mood." Then hang up and ignore him.At this time, he is here, and he is not as aggressive as he was in J City. He can no longer be as arrogant as usual, so he can only say in a low voice: "Lulu, your sister-in-law doesn't know who listens to nonsense. She went to the TV station. It's really inconvenient for me to go to the TV station." Pull her back there, I can only trouble you."
Gan Lu couldn't help laughing secretly: "Okay, I'll go and have a look."
While driving to the TV station, she put on the headset and called Qian Jiaxi: "Jiaxi, are you working now?"
Qian Jiaxi's voice was low, but excited: "I'm at work. I'm at the gossip scene. It's too exciting and enjoyable. It's not convenient to talk about it now. I'll replay it for you later."
"Hey, wait, is that Li Sibi in your station today?"
"Why are you looking for her? Could it be that someone has broadcast this good show live, it's so fast."
Gan Lu was confused when she heard this: "What kind of show is it?"
"Let me tell you, I was doing a rebroadcast of Li Sibi's talk show about economic figures just now. A lady brought a few burly men into the studio somehow, and slapped Li Sibi on the face. It was such a mess around the edges, it was shocking."
Gan Lu was dumbfounded.She doesn't have much dealings with her cousin Chen Yufei. In my impression, this cousin is beautiful and has a bright conversation. Although her family background is quite good, her demeanor is not domineering. The province came here, and without hesitation, he shot.
"Are they still there?"
"Of course, she sat there with a big face and asked the leader of the stage to talk about how to deal with the morally corrupt host."
"I'll be right over, come and pick me up at the door."
Qian Jiaxi was very surprised: "You actually like to watch this kind of excitement."
Gan Lu rushed to the TV station, only to see security guards standing in front of the studio, not allowing anyone to enter casually. Qian Jiaxi, who was waiting outside, somehow got a staff member's tag and put it around her neck, and the two of them walked in Go, Gan Lu told her that the wife was Shang Xiuwen's cousin.
"Ah, really?" Qian Jiaxi was surprised, "Then Shang Xiuwen's cousin is very powerful and well-connected. Why have you never said that you have such a powerful relative?"
"How amazing, did you make a fool of yourself?" Gan Lu could only laugh.
"You're not mean enough. Last time we saw Li Sibi's lover at the back door, you didn't tell me that he was a relative of your family."
"Please, he's just Xiuwen's cousin. I don't have much contact with him. Besides, would it be honorable for me to go up and call my cousin on that occasion?"
Qian Jiaxi laughed, and then she was amazed: "Your cousin is really tough, she came fully prepared, a few handsome guys in black stopped the idlers, and she slapped her hard on the face when she went up, and Li Sibi was not allowed to leave after the beating Fortunately, today is a recording and broadcasting instead of a live broadcast, otherwise something serious will happen. We said that we will call the police, but she is not afraid at all, saying that it is just right, and she will immediately call the hotlines of major newspapers to report the news, and invite reporters to interview on the spot. I'm really afraid that it will become a scandal if it goes out, and the deputy director just came over and is trying to persuade her to speak in another place."
When the two of them entered, they saw that the studio had been cleared, and all the audience had been taken away by the security guards. Only a few staff members were left in the venue. There were two sets of red sofas on the stage, and the one on the left sat with a pale face and messy hair. Li Sibi, her face is turned to one side, a middle-aged man who looks like a leader is sitting beside her, and her beautiful cousin Chen Yufei is sitting on the sofa on the right. She is very elegant and luxurious in a dark gray fur coat. The big man in the suit stood with his hands behind his back, his imposing manner was really compelling.
Qian Jiaxi whispered, "Look, does it look like a scene from a movie?"
However, Gan Lu saw at a glance that a bright woman in an exquisite sea-blue suit sitting in the front row of the auditorium turned out to be He Jingyi. She was sitting obliquely, with her beautiful legs crossed, looking at the stage with great interest.
"Why is she here?" Gan Lu frowned and asked softly, pointing her chin over there.
"He Jingyi? Today is her interview program. She seems to be very gossip. The other guest is a well-known local economist. He respects his status and left when he saw this situation. Unexpectedly, she Didn't leave, just sat there watching the excitement in the front row, she is a guest after all, and the security guards are too embarrassed to ask her out directly."
Gan Lu faintly felt that something was wrong, she felt that He Jingyi might not be someone who would like to watch the excitement, but right now she had no time to think about it, so she went up and called, "Sister Yufei."
Seeing her coming, Chen Yufei was a little surprised, and sneered: "Auntie and her elders are naturally inconvenient to come forward, so they pushed you to the front. Lulu, I advise you not to meddle in this business."
"It's nothing to say." Gan Lu smiled apologetically, "Sister Yufei, if you have something to say, please speak up. After all, this is where other people work. Why don't you make an appointment at another place and call the third brother over so that everyone can explain clearly in person."
Chen Yufei curled her lips: "Lulu, you really don't understand your third brother. He has always dared to do anything, but he really can't be said to dare to do anything. It's strange that he will come." She turned to Li Sibi, "Why don't you call him, usually it's not you Summon, did he drive over 200 kilometers from J City to meet you? See if he will come to rescue you today?"
Li Sibi seemed to have regained her composure, and said coldly: "I have no idea what you're talking about. Mr. Sun, call the police. The TV station is not a vegetable garden, and people can come in and out at will. If there is anything wrong, please ask the police to solve it."
Director Sun ignored her, and only said to Gan Lu: "Miss, please persuade this lady, the TV station is a unit with armed police on duty, the attack on the studio is not a small matter, since it is a private matter, you may as well Solve it in private, there is no need to affect the work order."
Before Gan Lu could speak, Chen Yufei said without hesitation: "Director Sun, this matter is indeed a private matter, but Ms. Li is a public figure. A public figure has to bear some social responsibilities. You can't just act virtuously on TV. , while colluding in private and destroying other people's families."
Li Sibi also sneered and said: "Everything must be based on evidence. If there is a problem in your family, what you should do is to communicate with your husband to solve it. It would be too ridiculous to find me for no reason."
"This cuckold was given to me by the two of you, please rest assured, I've always been very fair, and no one will let it go." Chen Yufei raised her eyebrows, her face full of sarcasm, "Oh, Miss Li, your tone is so innocent now, It makes me a little uncertain. Could it be that you paid for the nearly 300 million luxury unit in the Oriental Emperor Garden, and you paid for the Land Rover Range Rover that you just ordered with a price of more than one million? Blame? It seems that the salary of the TV station is much higher than I imagined."
The staff of the TV station downstairs immediately whispered to each other. Chen Yufei watched Li Sibi's face change with satisfaction, then turned to Director Sun, and said very sincerely: "Come on, Director Sun, I still have some interesting photos here. I know her husband, the woman with him, why don't you ask a few more colleagues to help me identify if it is this Miss Li, it is always bad to wrong a good person."
She gestured to open the Hermes bag in her hand, Li Sibi raised her voice and said, "That's enough, just tell me, what are you going to do today?"
Chen Yufei chuckled: "What do you think, Ms. Li? You must think that you have some fatal attraction to men, so that you can make them go on and on, right? Don't dream, a woman like you can be caught outside, you just It’s just wearing a host’s brand, which can satisfy the vanity of some men. Let me tell you the truth, I went all the way to come here. First, I don’t want to negotiate with you. Give it to me. I just want to make you ugly and let you know the consequences of touching someone else's husband casually."
Director Sun coughed: "Madam, we have already understood the situation you reported. In any case, we have to investigate and then hold a meeting to study and come up with a solution. It is not an option to continue the stalemate like this today."
Chen Yufei was very happy, and stood up without delay: "It's enough to have a leader, and I don't plan to go on a hunger strike on the TV station. But if you want to turn a big thing into a small one, you have to look at it." How did it develop?" She looked at Gan Lu who had been silent all this time, "I'm leaving first, Lulu."
Gan Lu walked out with her: "Sister Yufei, why don't you come to my house for a while, mom wants to talk to you."
"No need, the baby is still at home waiting for me to go back. Besides, I know what my aunt will say. It's nothing more than scolding Wu Wei and then persuading me to bear it. Please tell her old man that I don't want to make things too big right now. , but it’s hard to say in the future.”
"Sister Yufei, don't be impulsive, let's sit down with third brother and have a good talk."
A desolate look appeared on Chen Yufei's face, and her exquisite makeup couldn't conceal her sadness: "Do you think I like to come here to catch rape? No matter how miserable I make that woman, I won't be happy. Wu Wei and I, I'm afraid There is nothing more to talk about. He insulted me so much, does he expect me to endure it? I want to talk about this marriage, but if the two of them think that I will be bullied and bullied to the head, but Big mistake."
Gan Lu didn't know what to say, so she kept silent.Walking out of the TV station, the men had already driven a Mercedes-Benz and a Toyota business car, opened the door and waited. Chen Yufei was about to get in the car, but stopped and looked at Gan Lu: "Lulu, Xiuwen and Wu Wei is different, he has such good conditions, I have never seen him play hard, you probably won't encounter such unlucky things as me, I envy you."
(End of this chapter)
Qin Wanfeng's birthday reception was scheduled to be held at the banquet hall of a five-star hotel at noon on the weekend. The snow stopped a little that day, and the weather was gloomy and cold.Gan Lu and Shang Xiuwen went there on time, and found that the scale of the reception was not very large, but the ostentation was not small. Apart from relatives and friends, all the people who came were prominent figures in the local political and business circles.
Lu Huining was busy greeting the guests, and was very happy to see her daughter and son-in-law coming, so she hurriedly took them to see Qin Wanfeng.
I saw a man and woman who looked like a married couple of about 50 years old standing and talking with Qin Wanfeng. The wife, Gan Lu, knew her. She was Shen Sirui's mother, Liu Yuping. She couldn't help being surprised when she saw Gan Lu. When the man saw Shang Xiuwen, his expression was a little strange.
In the end, Shen Sirui was deducted 40 moral education credits by the school, plus a demerit penalty. According to the general teacher's opinion, strictly following the school rules, smoking alone is enough to get a warning. Teacher, it is not too much to remember a serious mistake or even persuade you to quit.This treatment is naturally a lenient punishment.
The disciplinary decision requires the signatures of the Political and Educational Office, the class teacher, the teacher, and the parents. These procedures have nothing to do with Gan Lu. It’s just that when she was leaving get off work, Liu Yuping happened to sign it and was about to get into the Mercedes-Benz 600 driven by her family’s driver.Liu Yuping greeted Gan Lu very affectionately and insisted on seeing her off. She quickly said that she was waiting for someone, so she declined.Now that she met Liu Yuping face to face, Gan Lu realized that the person standing next to her should be Shen Jiaxing, the boss of Sino Land.
Sure enough, Shang Xiuwen nodded to the man calmly: "Mr. Shen, hello."
Shen Jiaxing nodded to Shang Xiuwen hastily, Liu Yuping greeted Gan Lu, and looked at Shang Xiuwen suspiciously, but said nothing, Shen Jiaxing exchanged greetings with Qin Wanfeng and hurried away.
Qin Zhan came over to remind Lu Huining to greet the other wives. Gan Lu introduced to Qin Wanfeng: "Uncle Qin, this is my husband Shang Xiuwen."
Qin Wanfeng shook hands with Shang Xiuwen, and Shang Xiuwen presented a gift: "Mr. Qin, I wish you a happy birthday, and your longevity is better than Nanshan."
Qin Wanfeng quickly took it over: "You're too polite, you don't mind if I call you Xiuwen?"
Shang Xiuwen smiled slightly: "That's natural."
At this time, a slightly shrill voice came from behind them: "President Qin, happy birthday. I sent a gift for our Chairman Chen, which can be counted as my borrowing flowers to present Buddha."
They turned their heads and saw that it was He Jingyi who came. She was wearing a well-fitting silver-gray suit with a slender waist, slender legs, and her hair was still tied into a small bun, revealing a smooth forehead, very clean and neat.Behind her was a young man who looked like an assistant, holding a white jade Buddha statue with a red sandalwood seat in both hands respectfully.Qin Wanfeng hurried to pick it up, and He Jingyi took advantage of the opportunity to take the gift that Shang Xiuwen had just handed over to him: "Let me get it for you."
Qin Wanfeng looked at the shiny and warm Jade Buddha in his hand: "Chairman Chen is really caring. Miss He, thank him for me. I couldn't meet him last time I went to Beijing. I wonder what he is busy with now?"
He Jingyi smiled: "The chairman may come to the local area after the next year to preside over the signing ceremony of several important cooperation projects, and I will definitely come to visit you then." She looked at the gift in her hand, rubbed her fingers, her face The expression on the face suddenly darkened, "Montblanc's limited edition pen, good taste." She handed the pen to Qin Zhan who rushed over, then looked at Shang Xiuwen, and added in a drawn-out voice, "It's really good taste .”
Gan Lu's heart beat faster.
After Shang Xiuwen picked up Gan Lu from get off work the day before, she said that she was going to the mall to pick out a gift for Qin Wanfeng, and at the same time she frowned and said with a smile: "Hey, giving gifts to rich people is the most troublesome thing. He doesn't have anything. I gritted my teeth and paid for it." Send it over, I don’t know where he will throw it in a corner where it will never see the light of day.”
Shang Xiuwen also laughed: "Then you don't need to buy it. When it comes to not seeing the sun, I happen to have a Montblanc pen in my drawer. It was a gift from someone else. It has never been used, so I can get it out."
Gan Lu didn't expect him to mention the pen so casually, and she couldn't help but feel ashamed again for the wild guesses she made when she was digging through his drawers. She was glad that she didn't ask questions rashly, and immediately agreed to his arrangement.
But at this moment, she clearly saw the flash of anger and resentment in He Jingyi's eyes, and she almost immediately concluded that this sum must have a lot to do with the other party.If she had known this in advance, and knew that He Jingyi would also be present, she would not have agreed to Shang Xiuwen's passing the pen as a gift to Qin Wanfeng. In her opinion, this kind of behavior was not considered venting, and would only cause trouble for nothing.
However, Shang Xiuwen only showed a little surprise the moment he saw He Jingyi. At this time, his expression was calm and there was no abnormality. There was still a slight smile on the corner of his mouth. He ignored He Jingyi's sharp eyes and greeted her politely: " Hello, Miss He."
"Good evening, Mr. Shang and Mrs. Shang," He Jingyi had regained her composure, "I'll go in first."
She followed Qin Zhan in and took a seat.Gan Lu and Shang Xiuwen were about to go in, but Qin Yanzhi and Nie Qian came in while talking.These two people will appear together, which is a big surprise to Gan Lu.
Qin Yanzhi saw Gan Lu at a glance, walked over directly, and said with a smile: "Lulu, this gentleman should be my brother-in-law, please introduce to us."
"Shang Xiuwen, my husband; Qin Yanzhi, President Qin's daughter."
Shang Xiuwen nodded to her: "Miss Qin, hello."
"It's really natural, you two, you two, call me Miss Qin, and my dad will inevitably ask me if I'm playing Missy again, and I don't know what my aunt will say."
Gan Lu also smiled and said, "Zhizhi, I don't know what President Qin will say, and my mother probably won't have the leisure to judge you."
"I almost forgot, you have a sharp mouth since you were young." Qin Yanzhi smiled meaningfully, "However, I am very happy to see you frequently appearing in my house recently. I heard that your husband has recently lost his job, so I need my father to pay attention There is no suitable position, can you arrange something for him?"
Before Gan Lu could speak, Shang Xiuwen stretched out his hand to hold her waist, gestured slightly with his fingers, and then opened his mouth in a clear voice: "Thank you, Mr. Qin, for being considerate." He looked at Qin Yanzhi directly, with a polite and slightly amused expression on his face. With ridicule, without a trace of discomfort, "But right now I have no plan to come out and look for a job."
Nie Qian came from behind and said jokingly: "Ms. Qin is very thirsty for talents recently. She is recruiting talents for Chairman Qin. She even asked me if I would like to work in Wanfeng."
He said this half-jokingly, and the atmosphere finally eased a little.Qin Zhan also came out, frowned and looked at Qin Yanzhi: "Zhizhi, you are also the host today, hurry up and greet the guests."
Qin Yanzhi looked at her cousin with a smile: "Ah Zhan, why didn't you call your new girlfriend over? Anyway, she knows Lulu well."
Gan Lu couldn't help being puzzled, and looked at Qin Zhan, who seemed a little embarrassed for a moment, shrugged and didn't say anything.
Qin Yanzhi curled her lips amusedly: "Lulu, you see that you and my family have a very deep relationship, your mother married my father, and your good friend is now dating my cousin, and it was before he and Xiaopan officially broke up. When I take advantage of the situation..."
"Zhizhi—" Qin Zhan interrupted her, obviously a little annoyed.
But Qin Yanzhi took his arm mischievously, and said affectionately: "Ah Zhan, your skin is still so thin that you can't be shredded. What's the matter, it's just a change of girlfriend." She smiled as if It was just a harmless joke just now, Qin Zhan couldn't help but shook his head helplessly.
Nie Qian, who had been watching coldly, said, "Go in and sit down, the guests seem to be almost here."
Qin Zhan remembered his responsibilities and hurriedly asked them to go in and take a seat. Qin Yanzhi and Nie Qian walked in front, Gan Lu fell behind, and sighed softly to Shang Xiuwen: "I really shouldn't be with them."
Shang Xiuwen said casually: "Lulu, God does not distribute wealth equally, but when he distributes people you don't like as relatives and friends, it is very even, don't mind."
Qin Zhan handed cigarettes to Shang Xiuwen, Shang Xiuwen politely declined: "Thank you, I quit smoking recently."
Qin Zhan put the cigarette case in front of Nie Qian and said with a smile, "Lulu, if I ask you something, your husband won't mind?"
Gan Lu didn't know what he was going to do, so she got up and followed him to the window on the side of the hall: "Why, so mysterious."
Qin Zhan said in a low voice, "Lulu, I've been wanting to ask you for a few days, what is the origin of that Nie Qian?"
Gan Lu couldn't help laughing: "You don't know where he came from, why invite him to the banquet."
"Don't get me wrong," Qin Zhan said with a smile, "it's not that I have nothing to do to investigate his details. It's just... that girl Zhizhi suddenly fell out with Steven, and the two had a big fight. Back to the United States. Suddenly, for some reason, she became very close to Nie Qian."
Gan Lu stared blankly at such an unimaginable development, and then involuntarily looked at Nie Qian. Qin Yanzhi was sitting beside him, whispering something to him. On the contrary, he looked very excited and smiled at Yanyan.
Gan Lu was instinctively surprised by this scene, and at the same time remembered Qin Yanzhi's sarcasm just now, and thought, if Qin Yanzhi knew that Nie Qian was her ex-boyfriend, what kind of expression would Qin Yanzhi make and what strange words would she say.Thinking of this, she couldn't laugh or cry, but of course she didn't intend to take the initiative to say anything.
"Uncle and I are very puzzled. I only know that Nie Qian is a professional manager hired by Lao Shen at a high price. His performance and ability are outstanding in the industry. We don't know anything else. Zhizhi is crazy. , but the mind is actually pure, we are afraid of her..." Qin Zhan seemed to be a little embarrassed.
"Are you afraid that she will be deceived? I heard that rich people will inevitably worry about other people approaching for other purposes. Qin Zhan, it's rare that you have always been close to the people." Gan Lu said with a smile and sarcasm.
Qin Zhan was a little embarrassed: "It's not as serious as you said. In fact, Uncle thinks that Nie Qian is a rare talent with outstanding abilities. He can be regarded as condescending to Lao Shen."
"I'm afraid I don't have much information to contribute. I can only tell you that Nie Qian is my middle school senior with good grades. He is a talented student in the Department of Architecture of a prestigious school. You probably have to find out the rest yourself."
Qin Zhan smiled helplessly: "I know you don't like Zhizhi, she is indeed a bit too much sometimes, but she really has no evil intentions, she is just willful."
Gan Lu said bluntly: "If she wants to be self-willed, if she wants to act like a baby with her father or you, that's her right. Even if she wants to fight against my mother, I don't care. My mother married a man with a daughter. I should know what problems I'm going to face, and it's not my turn to worry about her. But I have no reason to swallow other people's provocations."
"Okay, okay," Qin Zhan smiled good-naturedly, "You can do whatever you want, and I'm sure I won't get sidetracked again."
"Okay, it's my turn to ask you, what did Qin Yanzhi say about your new girlfriend?"
Qin Zhan said nonchalantly, "It's true that Jiaxi and I get along very well, but we haven't reached that point yet."
Gan Lu stared at him in disbelief, thinking that she hadn't said a word to Qian Jiaxi on the phone a few days ago, otherwise, it would be a little strange to keep her close friend so tight: "Qin Zhan, don't you You messed with Jia Xi before you broke up with your girlfriend."
"Xiao Pan and I have already broken up." Qin Zhan spread his hands, "Don't listen to Zhizhi's nonsense. The food has started, let's go in."
"Wait a minute, does the company He Jingyi works for have any business relationship with Wanfeng Real Estate?"
"Do you know He Jingyi too? Uncle and Yixin's boss, Chen Hua, have known each other for a few years. It's kind of friendly. Yixin has just entered the local area. Their real estate business scope is mainly concentrated in the field of commercial and industrial real estate. It is said that they will be in He Jingyi, on behalf of Yixin, came to meet with Uncle on behalf of Yixin to choose projects locally to make large-scale real estate investment, and the specific cooperation is not yet discussed.”
Gan Lu nodded: "Well, let's go in."
However, when she walked over, Gan Lu couldn't help being stunned, He Jingyi didn't know when she sat in the seat she had sat on Shang Xiuwen's left, and the two of them were talking about something.Seeing Gan Lu, she had no intention of getting up at all: "The table over there is full of old gentlemen and old ladies. It's very boring. I sit here, Mrs. Shang, don't you mind?"
Gan Lu was very concerned, but it was impossible to say anything, so she could only smile slightly: "Please go ahead."
Shang Xiuwen had already stood up, and pulled the chair on the right for her: "Lulu, sit over here."
It was unavoidable to sit with Nie Qian, while Qin Yanzhi was looking at her with an expression of ready to watch a good show.She sat down calmly and ignored the others.
Qin Wanfeng stepped onto the small stage in the banquet hall, and raised his glasses to thank all the friends for their presence. Everyone stood up and raised their glasses to each other.After sitting down, Qin Yanzhi noticed that Shang Xiuwen and Gan Lu didn't take the cups with Wuliangye and red wine in front of them, but one drank tea and the other drank fruit juice. Happy birthday dad, you should have a little drink."
Nie Qian beckoned the waiter to come over and add juice to Gan Lu: "I remember that Gan Lu was allergic to alcohol and never drank."
Qin Yanzhi glanced at him, "What about Mr. Shang?"
Shang Xiuwen signaled the waiter to refill the tea for him: "I don't drink alcohol, so I'll toast Mr. Qin with tea instead of wine later."
"Xiuwen, you drank alcohol when we were eating together two months ago, but I don't know why you quit suddenly." He Jingyi sat upright and said thoughtfully.
Shang Xiuwen's voice was very calm and calm: "I recently quit smoking and drinking."
"Could it be that you and your wife have family plans?"
Such an abrupt question made Gan Lu frown slightly, but Shang Xiuwen only smiled slightly, and looked back at Gan Lu with gentle eyes, a gesture of complete acquiescence.Under his gaze, Gan Lu also smiled, and then Shang Xiuwen met He Jingyi's aggressive gaze: "Since it's a family plan, there seems to be no need to discuss it with everyone here."
After a few dishes were served, Shang Xiuwen's cell phone rang. He looked at the number, said "I'm sorry", and went out to answer it.
He Jingyi looked at Gan Lu carelessly: "Mrs. Shang, if I remember correctly, you are a teacher. The school should be on holiday now, right?"
Gan Lu nodded perfunctorily.
"Do you have any plans for the holidays?"
"I still have to study during the holidays."
"Oh, that's it. I've been meeting Xiuwen in City J these days. I guess he may have to stay there a lot recently. It's a pity that you don't follow him to accompany him."
Gan Lu looked at her amusedly: "Miss He, thank you for your concern..." Shang Xiuwen suddenly turned back, put his hand on her shoulder, and said softly, "Lulu, I'm afraid I have to leave early."
"what happened?"
"I have to get to Brazil right away."
Before Gan Lu could speak, He Jingyi had already spoken: "Xiuwen, is there something going on with Shaokun?"
Shang Xiuwen seemed to be taken aback suddenly, then looked at her sharply, then shook his head: "He's fine. I'm sorry everyone, I'll take a step first."
Gan Lu raised her eyes, and met He Jingyi's gaze, looking at them unabashedly.Although she was full of doubts, she nodded with her expression unchanged, stood up, and said softly, "I'll go back and help you pack your luggage." Then she raised her voice and said to Qin Zhan, "Qin Zhan, help tell Uncle Qin I'm sorry, we have to take a step ahead."
After leaving the hotel, Shang Xiuwen started the car and drove onto the main road, saying: "Shaokun had an accident in Brazil. He was accused of participating in money laundering and has been invited to accept police investigation. I have to rush there immediately."
Gan Lu was taken aback. The word money laundering sounded distant and dangerous, a bit beyond her comprehension: "Is it important?"
"It's hard to say now. His company is engaged in import and export trade, and Xu Sheng also imports a small amount of iron ore as an agent. It is very troublesome to get involved in this kind of accusation."
Gan Lu hesitated: "Does Miss He know Shaokun?"
"They knew each other before." Shang Xiuwen said lightly, "But it should be a long time since we had no contact."
"Then why does she think of Shaokun when she hears Brazil?"
Shang Xiuwen's expression looked the same as before, but Gan Lu was already familiar with his subtle expressions. From the movement of his jaw, he realized that he had clenched his teeth.After a long pause, he opened his mouth in a gentle voice: "I also find this very strange. Even if Shaokun has contact with her, it is impossible to inform her after the accident. I'm afraid I can't explain exactly what she is. What's the meaning."
Gan Lu looked out the window silently, and found that there were small snowflakes in the sky again, and it was gradually getting bigger.Such a severe cold and snowy winter, as far as she can remember, is very rare in the local area.
Shang Xiuwen concentrated on driving the car, and soon approached their residence, drove the car straight into the underground garage, backed it into the parking space and parked it, then looked back at Gan Lu with a very serious expression: "I guess she will tell you In other words, Lulu, sometimes it may be by chance; sometimes, she may even come to you specifically. I don’t know what else she will say. I can only tell you one thing. If you have any doubts, remember Ask me first, don't judge by her words."
Gan Lu followed him to get off the car and walked to the elevator. Finally, she couldn't help herself and asked sullenly, "Xiuwen, she is a professional woman and holds a high position, so she should be very busy. According to you, your affairs have long since passed. What's the reason for her to be so entangled with me?"
Shang Xiuwen pressed the up button and stared at the floor display: "About this, I'm afraid I can't give you a clear explanation. She and I are indeed in the past, maybe she has a different view on the past than I do." He didn't look back, and stretched out his hand to take her into his arms, "But I know very well that for me, being with you now is the most important thing."
The elevator stopped in front of them without a sound, Gan Lu walked in with him, tightly held one of his arms, and pressed her face against it.
After listening to Shang Xiuwen's brief explanation, Wu Lijun frowned immediately: "Why did he cause trouble again? Didn't he hire a lawyer? What's the use of you going?"
Shang Xiuwen checked the flight on the Internet with his mobile phone, and said flatly: "The Brazilian judicial system is not very sound, and this kind of thing doesn't just need a lawyer."
"But now Xusheng's merger has reached a critical moment, and you are going abroad, what if something happens?"
Gan Lu is a bit strange about her mother-in-law's thinking. How can Shang Shaokun say that he is also the cousin of the Shang family. After being adopted, he is regarded as a stepson. His fate in a foreign country, but he only cares about Xu Sheng's long-pending merger, which is too obvious.
She didn't want to get involved in the quarrel between the mother and the son, so she hurried upstairs to pack her luggage, and asked Shang Xiuwen from the stairs: "Xiuwen, do you want to bring a suit?"
The two people downstairs are still arguing, the voices are not loud, Wu Lijun speaks a little faster, Shang Xiuwen is as usual, but they are obviously not giving in to each other.I only heard Shang Xiuwen say in a conclusive tone: "Mom, we don't need to discuss this matter anymore." Then he raised his voice and answered her: "Just bring one set is enough."
I don't know since when, when Shang Xiuwen went on a business trip, he always reported the schedule to her and let her prepare the luggage.She estimated the weather in Brazil, which is located in the southern hemisphere, and put in a thin gray suit, matched it with a matching shirt and tie, and prepared several sets of casual clothes.Her movements have always been neat, and when Shang Xiuwen came up after talking with his mother, she was almost packed.
Shang Xiuwen opened the drawer and took out his passport, then handed the car keys to his wife: "The weather is bad, don't take the bus, and drive directly to work in the future, just be careful."
Gan Lu nodded. She has had her driver's license for more than a year. Shang Xiuwen handed her the keys from time to time and encouraged her to drive more. Her skills are not bad: "I'll take you to the airport."
When the two went downstairs, Wu Lijun had already returned to her room, Shang Xiuwen only stood at the door of her room to say hello, and then went out with Gan Lu to the airport.
Shang Xiuwen booked the nearest flight to Beijing. After changing the boarding pass and checking in his luggage, he checked that there was still some time, and the two of them sat down in the departure hall.
Gan Lu asked, "Why doesn't your mother agree with you going to Brazil?"
"She is mainly worried about Xusheng's annexation of the smelter, and she is afraid that uncle will not be able to handle it. I made it clear to her that it is impossible to have a clear conclusion before the Spring Festival. I will settle there as soon as possible and come back as soon as possible. What's the delay?" Shang Xiuwen seemed to hesitate for a moment, then smiled wryly, "As for Shaokun, he and my mother haven't spoken to each other for several years."
Gan Lu was startled, but she didn't intend to get to the bottom of it, so she put her hand in his hand silently, and he held it tightly: "Shaokun was very unruly when he was a child, and his parents passed away one after another, so he was unavoidably withdrawn, but that was all in the past. He and my father had a very good relationship, and he was always a bit brooding about his sudden death, and felt that my mother was responsible for not taking good care of him."
This was the second time he mentioned his father who died of a heart attack to Gan Lu, and the wry smile at the corner of his mouth was still a bit bleak: "Actually, if you really investigate it seriously, maybe Shaokun has more reasons to blame me."
"Birth, old age, sickness and death, no one can avoid it. He shouldn't blame you or mother."
"No, some things shouldn't have happened." Shang Xiuwen shook his head, his expression getting darker.
"Actually, I think you and Shaokun seem to have a very good relationship, like brothers."
Gan Lu clearly remembered that at the end of their honeymoon in the Maldives, Shang Shaokun came from the United States to meet them.After exchanging pleasantries, she went to the SPA alone to rest her sunburned skin. When she came back, she saw the two brothers sitting on the terrace of the water house drinking wine. The sun was setting and cast their shadows into the house Come, they didn't talk too much, but the intimacy and tacit understanding between each other is obvious.
"Yeah, we've always had a good relationship, so he didn't blame me, he just blamed my mother." Shang Xiuwen looked at the hurried passengers in front of him, "I'll talk to you later when I have time. It's the Chinese New Year I don't know how long I'm going to stay there, if I don't come back in time, you can spend more time with my mother, she is also very lonely."
After Gan Lu sent Shang Xiuwen to the security check, she drove back alone.The sky was overcast and cloudy, and the snow fell from time to time, almost without a pause. Like this weather, her mood was a little inexplicably heavy, but at the same time a little comforting.
She wasn't ashamed of her mother's second marriage, but she never wanted to associate herself with the large family that came with that marriage.Shang Xiuwen also rarely mentioned his previous life, his family, his father who died young.
Now that they both had stepped into parts of each other that hadn't been open to them before, she realized for the first time that this kind of penetration into each other's lives was completely normal for a marriage.After all, she thought, they were off to a good start.
Shang Xiuwen got a visa in Beijing, successfully transferred to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and called back to report that he was safe.Gan Lu began to participate in the study organized by the school. Although she came and went on time every day, it was easier than going to work after all.The heavy snow that has become a disaster that plagued the whole country has finally stopped, but the weather is still very cold, and it is much more convenient to drive to and from.
Shang Xiuwen didn't come back until she finished her studies and officially started her vacation. He only called and said that Shang Shaokun's matter was not serious, mainly due to being implicated by others, but the situation was more complicated than expected, and he might have to delay it until after the Spring Festival .Hearing the news, Wu Lijun didn't show any worry, she just said lightly: "Just think about it yourself."
Gan Lu did a lot of research on the situation in Brazil on the Internet, and only carefully told him to pay attention to the poor security there. Shang Xiuwen agreed, and in turn comforted her, that the place is not as chaotic as the Internet said.
On the day before New Year's Eve, Gan Lu did not set an alarm clock to wake herself up for the first time, she fell asleep as much as she wanted, until the mobile phone kept ringing on the bedside table, she barely struggled to get it, and answered sleepily: "Hello? "
Shang Xiuwen called from Brazil, he was a little surprised: "Lulu, are you still sleeping?"
"Sleeping in in winter is one of the great pleasures in life, and..." Gan Lu said while huddling under the quilt, "I've lived here for so long, isn't it too much to sleep in?"
Shang Xiuwen was startled, knowing that she was telling the truth.Since she came to live here, Wu Lijun got up on time no matter it was weekends or winter and summer vacations. Naturally, Gan Lu was too embarrassed to stay in bed, so she had to get up to make breakfast like on weekdays.He said that he could discuss it with his mother and let her sleep more on weekends or holidays, but she immediately stopped her, saying that it was not necessary.
"Is mom not home?"
"She went to the province for a meeting yesterday, and she just came back tonight."
"Sorry, Lulu."
Gan Lu smiled and said, "Hey, why did you suddenly say sorry to me? I heard that South American girls are unrestrained and sexy. Tell me honestly, did you go to a porn dance, or did you strike up a conversation with a woman in a bar?"
Shang Xiuwen was startled, and after a while, he laughed muffledly: "Well, they are indeed very enthusiastic. Now I am very considerate of Shaokun complaining about the poor security here, and at the same time staying here for at least four or five months a year."
"I'm talking about the main point, is there anything?" "I'm not in that mood." Shang Xiuwen sighed, "Stupid boy, I'm sorry for not being able to let you sleep in after marrying me. "
"Oh, this. It's nothing. It's boring to sleep late every day. It's good to sleep once in a while. It's so comfortable." She stretched her body under the warm quilt, "What time is it?"
"It's almost eleven o'clock at night here."
Gan Lu talked with him during this time, and already understood the time difference between the two places: "I actually slept until ten o'clock in the morning, which is unprecedented. Alas, I seem to be very tired these days, and the more I sleep, the sleepier I get. But I can wake up now." , Sister Hu will come over later to do the cleaning."
"Lie down for a while and don't move."
She had already stood up, listened to his words, lay down again, and buried her head comfortably in the pillow: "Xiuwen, why are you still up so late, is there something wrong with Shaokun?"
"Fortunately, his company was only implicated, and he is a British citizen. The lawyer believes that the probability of him being cleared of the charges is relatively high."
"That's good," Gan Lu had a good impression of Shang Shaokun, and she was also happy for him when she heard the news, "Then why can't you sleep, are you worried about Xu Sheng?"
"I just miss you, Lulu, and I can't sleep because of the thought. If only you were lying next to me now."
Shang Xiuwen's voice came over a little hoarse, such a long distance seemed to add an indescribable tenderness to the voice, Gan Lu only felt a softness from the fingertips holding the phone to her heart, and her voice felt a little soft. Choked, and after a while, he whispered: "I miss you too."
The two of them fell silent at the same time, and there was only a faint rustling sound in the receiver. At this moment, the landline on the bedside table rang suddenly. She hated this disturbing interruption, but she had no choice but to get up to answer it.It was actually Wu Lijun who called back, and she immediately said, "Xiao Gan, you should contact your cousin immediately, find her, and advise her to go home immediately."
Gan Lu couldn't help being puzzled: "Mom, what's wrong with my cousin, where can I find her?"
Wu Lijun's voice was clearly disturbed, but at the same time she managed to keep her voice down: "I just received a call from your uncle. It is said that she heard some rumors and came to us from J City to have a showdown with Wu Wei's lover. How decent is it? I'm in a meeting now, you go to her and try to persuade her. "
Gan Lu had to agree to do so, put down the phone, and said to the phone while getting up, "You heard it all. My God, it's such a big city, where do I go to find her?"
Shang Xiuwen was very annoyed and helpless: "You call the third child first, he should deal with this kind of matter himself."
"Well, okay, I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to change my clothes."
"Drive carefully, if you need anything, call me immediately."
Gan Lu hurriedly washed and changed her clothes, and then called Wu Wei's cell phone: "Third brother, please give me some instructions, where should I find my sister-in-law?"
Wu Wei was in a bit of a panic. He had just been scolded by his father and aunt respectively. After answering his phone, his wife sneered when she heard his threats: "Wu Wei, you figure it out. Now you kneel down and beg me, why don't you just ask me?" It depends on whether I'm in a good mood." Then hang up and ignore him.At this time, he is here, and he is not as aggressive as he was in J City. He can no longer be as arrogant as usual, so he can only say in a low voice: "Lulu, your sister-in-law doesn't know who listens to nonsense. She went to the TV station. It's really inconvenient for me to go to the TV station." Pull her back there, I can only trouble you."
Gan Lu couldn't help laughing secretly: "Okay, I'll go and have a look."
While driving to the TV station, she put on the headset and called Qian Jiaxi: "Jiaxi, are you working now?"
Qian Jiaxi's voice was low, but excited: "I'm at work. I'm at the gossip scene. It's too exciting and enjoyable. It's not convenient to talk about it now. I'll replay it for you later."
"Hey, wait, is that Li Sibi in your station today?"
"Why are you looking for her? Could it be that someone has broadcast this good show live, it's so fast."
Gan Lu was confused when she heard this: "What kind of show is it?"
"Let me tell you, I was doing a rebroadcast of Li Sibi's talk show about economic figures just now. A lady brought a few burly men into the studio somehow, and slapped Li Sibi on the face. It was such a mess around the edges, it was shocking."
Gan Lu was dumbfounded.She doesn't have much dealings with her cousin Chen Yufei. In my impression, this cousin is beautiful and has a bright conversation. Although her family background is quite good, her demeanor is not domineering. The province came here, and without hesitation, he shot.
"Are they still there?"
"Of course, she sat there with a big face and asked the leader of the stage to talk about how to deal with the morally corrupt host."
"I'll be right over, come and pick me up at the door."
Qian Jiaxi was very surprised: "You actually like to watch this kind of excitement."
Gan Lu rushed to the TV station, only to see security guards standing in front of the studio, not allowing anyone to enter casually. Qian Jiaxi, who was waiting outside, somehow got a staff member's tag and put it around her neck, and the two of them walked in Go, Gan Lu told her that the wife was Shang Xiuwen's cousin.
"Ah, really?" Qian Jiaxi was surprised, "Then Shang Xiuwen's cousin is very powerful and well-connected. Why have you never said that you have such a powerful relative?"
"How amazing, did you make a fool of yourself?" Gan Lu could only laugh.
"You're not mean enough. Last time we saw Li Sibi's lover at the back door, you didn't tell me that he was a relative of your family."
"Please, he's just Xiuwen's cousin. I don't have much contact with him. Besides, would it be honorable for me to go up and call my cousin on that occasion?"
Qian Jiaxi laughed, and then she was amazed: "Your cousin is really tough, she came fully prepared, a few handsome guys in black stopped the idlers, and she slapped her hard on the face when she went up, and Li Sibi was not allowed to leave after the beating Fortunately, today is a recording and broadcasting instead of a live broadcast, otherwise something serious will happen. We said that we will call the police, but she is not afraid at all, saying that it is just right, and she will immediately call the hotlines of major newspapers to report the news, and invite reporters to interview on the spot. I'm really afraid that it will become a scandal if it goes out, and the deputy director just came over and is trying to persuade her to speak in another place."
When the two of them entered, they saw that the studio had been cleared, and all the audience had been taken away by the security guards. Only a few staff members were left in the venue. There were two sets of red sofas on the stage, and the one on the left sat with a pale face and messy hair. Li Sibi, her face is turned to one side, a middle-aged man who looks like a leader is sitting beside her, and her beautiful cousin Chen Yufei is sitting on the sofa on the right. She is very elegant and luxurious in a dark gray fur coat. The big man in the suit stood with his hands behind his back, his imposing manner was really compelling.
Qian Jiaxi whispered, "Look, does it look like a scene from a movie?"
However, Gan Lu saw at a glance that a bright woman in an exquisite sea-blue suit sitting in the front row of the auditorium turned out to be He Jingyi. She was sitting obliquely, with her beautiful legs crossed, looking at the stage with great interest.
"Why is she here?" Gan Lu frowned and asked softly, pointing her chin over there.
"He Jingyi? Today is her interview program. She seems to be very gossip. The other guest is a well-known local economist. He respects his status and left when he saw this situation. Unexpectedly, she Didn't leave, just sat there watching the excitement in the front row, she is a guest after all, and the security guards are too embarrassed to ask her out directly."
Gan Lu faintly felt that something was wrong, she felt that He Jingyi might not be someone who would like to watch the excitement, but right now she had no time to think about it, so she went up and called, "Sister Yufei."
Seeing her coming, Chen Yufei was a little surprised, and sneered: "Auntie and her elders are naturally inconvenient to come forward, so they pushed you to the front. Lulu, I advise you not to meddle in this business."
"It's nothing to say." Gan Lu smiled apologetically, "Sister Yufei, if you have something to say, please speak up. After all, this is where other people work. Why don't you make an appointment at another place and call the third brother over so that everyone can explain clearly in person."
Chen Yufei curled her lips: "Lulu, you really don't understand your third brother. He has always dared to do anything, but he really can't be said to dare to do anything. It's strange that he will come." She turned to Li Sibi, "Why don't you call him, usually it's not you Summon, did he drive over 200 kilometers from J City to meet you? See if he will come to rescue you today?"
Li Sibi seemed to have regained her composure, and said coldly: "I have no idea what you're talking about. Mr. Sun, call the police. The TV station is not a vegetable garden, and people can come in and out at will. If there is anything wrong, please ask the police to solve it."
Director Sun ignored her, and only said to Gan Lu: "Miss, please persuade this lady, the TV station is a unit with armed police on duty, the attack on the studio is not a small matter, since it is a private matter, you may as well Solve it in private, there is no need to affect the work order."
Before Gan Lu could speak, Chen Yufei said without hesitation: "Director Sun, this matter is indeed a private matter, but Ms. Li is a public figure. A public figure has to bear some social responsibilities. You can't just act virtuously on TV. , while colluding in private and destroying other people's families."
Li Sibi also sneered and said: "Everything must be based on evidence. If there is a problem in your family, what you should do is to communicate with your husband to solve it. It would be too ridiculous to find me for no reason."
"This cuckold was given to me by the two of you, please rest assured, I've always been very fair, and no one will let it go." Chen Yufei raised her eyebrows, her face full of sarcasm, "Oh, Miss Li, your tone is so innocent now, It makes me a little uncertain. Could it be that you paid for the nearly 300 million luxury unit in the Oriental Emperor Garden, and you paid for the Land Rover Range Rover that you just ordered with a price of more than one million? Blame? It seems that the salary of the TV station is much higher than I imagined."
The staff of the TV station downstairs immediately whispered to each other. Chen Yufei watched Li Sibi's face change with satisfaction, then turned to Director Sun, and said very sincerely: "Come on, Director Sun, I still have some interesting photos here. I know her husband, the woman with him, why don't you ask a few more colleagues to help me identify if it is this Miss Li, it is always bad to wrong a good person."
She gestured to open the Hermes bag in her hand, Li Sibi raised her voice and said, "That's enough, just tell me, what are you going to do today?"
Chen Yufei chuckled: "What do you think, Ms. Li? You must think that you have some fatal attraction to men, so that you can make them go on and on, right? Don't dream, a woman like you can be caught outside, you just It’s just wearing a host’s brand, which can satisfy the vanity of some men. Let me tell you the truth, I went all the way to come here. First, I don’t want to negotiate with you. Give it to me. I just want to make you ugly and let you know the consequences of touching someone else's husband casually."
Director Sun coughed: "Madam, we have already understood the situation you reported. In any case, we have to investigate and then hold a meeting to study and come up with a solution. It is not an option to continue the stalemate like this today."
Chen Yufei was very happy, and stood up without delay: "It's enough to have a leader, and I don't plan to go on a hunger strike on the TV station. But if you want to turn a big thing into a small one, you have to look at it." How did it develop?" She looked at Gan Lu who had been silent all this time, "I'm leaving first, Lulu."
Gan Lu walked out with her: "Sister Yufei, why don't you come to my house for a while, mom wants to talk to you."
"No need, the baby is still at home waiting for me to go back. Besides, I know what my aunt will say. It's nothing more than scolding Wu Wei and then persuading me to bear it. Please tell her old man that I don't want to make things too big right now. , but it’s hard to say in the future.”
"Sister Yufei, don't be impulsive, let's sit down with third brother and have a good talk."
A desolate look appeared on Chen Yufei's face, and her exquisite makeup couldn't conceal her sadness: "Do you think I like to come here to catch rape? No matter how miserable I make that woman, I won't be happy. Wu Wei and I, I'm afraid There is nothing more to talk about. He insulted me so much, does he expect me to endure it? I want to talk about this marriage, but if the two of them think that I will be bullied and bullied to the head, but Big mistake."
Gan Lu didn't know what to say, so she kept silent.Walking out of the TV station, the men had already driven a Mercedes-Benz and a Toyota business car, opened the door and waited. Chen Yufei was about to get in the car, but stopped and looked at Gan Lu: "Lulu, Xiuwen and Wu Wei is different, he has such good conditions, I have never seen him play hard, you probably won't encounter such unlucky things as me, I envy you."
