The rich and powerful: the contracted secret wife, please enter the game

Chapter 95
Shi Lei could hardly bear it anymore, and was about to raise his fist, but Qi Zhen suddenly asked lightly: "Why, don't you think you haven't been in jail enough?"

Shi Lei's arm suddenly went limp, and he couldn't lift it up.

That's right, it was this person who sent him to prison for three years. It was the first time he was in prison, and he was treated badly there. It was a period of time that he dare not recall.

"Why did you ask me?" He suppressed his fear and asked forcefully, "Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

"Didn't Qin Nian tell you, I'm giving you a chance to get rich." Qi Zhen raised his eyebrows.

"Get rich? Ha, is this considered compensation?" Shi Lei scoffed.

Qi Zhen's smile was stern: "Compensation? Then you don't deserve it."

"Why is that?" Shi Lei asked back, Qi Zhen put his fingertips on the table next to him, and tapped lightly: "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask, and make your money with peace of mind, and tell you when it's time to ask." I'll tell you of course."

His tone was very calm, but for some reason, it just gave people a sense of trembling, Shi Lei really didn't dare to ask any more questions.

"Okay, I've ordered a table of food and wine for you, enjoy it, and Qin Nian will pick you up later." After finishing speaking, he walked away, leaving only Shi Lei standing there, feeling as if he had done it. An incredible dream...

On Friday, Qi Zhen told Lu Zhengnan that the contractor had been fully confirmed, and asked him if he wanted to meet, Lu Zhengnan said casually, let's have a meal together.

Qi Zhen immediately made an appointment with Tiansheng's Manager Li and Shi Lei, but the location was still the same private room as last time.

When Shi Lei came to this familiar environment, he remembered the words Qi Zhen said last time, and he was afraid. During the whole meeting, he followed the words Qin Nian had taught him before, and answered Lu Zhengnan's occasional questions, and did not dare to say a word about the rest. Don't talk too much, just keep your head down and eat.

Lu Zhengnan's eyes flicked across his scar several times, but he didn't ask any questions on the spot. Instead, after the banquet was over, he seemed to ask Qi Zhen unintentionally: "Where did you find that Manager Shi? It doesn't seem like there was any one before. I've heard of this guy."

Qin Nian immediately stood up and replied with a compensatory smile: "To tell you the truth, Mr. Lu said that this is a distant relative of mine. When he was young, he was reckless and committed some crimes. After two years of being in trouble, he is now released to make money." I don't have much money, I can't start a family and I can't start a business. My cousin entrusted thousands of entrustments, and I have no choice but to..."

"Understood." Lu Zhengnan nodded.

Qin Nian hurriedly explained again: "Don't worry, he has suffered enough in prison, and now he is honest, I will always keep an eye on him."

Lu Zhengnan smiled: "It's okay, after all, it's just a small job of pulling sand and paving the road. It's also right to take care of one's own people."

Afterwards, he left, and when Qin Nian and Qi Zhen were left, they looked at each other and went to work separately.

Shi Lei was honest, because he couldn't figure out the details of this matter, and he only followed Qin Nian's instructions. Qi Zhen never had direct contact with him, so he didn't dare to ask more questions.

Only in private, I often wonder why such a good thing like a pie in the sky would fall on me, and it was given by the person who sent me to prison in the first place.

Thinking of those years, he thought of another person—Ye Chuxiao.

Ye Chuxiao, Ye Chuxiao, where is she now, and what does it have to do with this matter?
*****************************
At this time, Ye Chuxiao was still recuperating at home, but the life of eating and sleeping for a long time had made her unbearably bored, and the studio was also very busy. After all, Shen Ya had no design foundation. Bo, Monica alone can't keep busy.

Her body has almost recovered, and after the previous period of morning sickness, there is basically no serious problem, so under her repeated begging, Lu Zhengnan finally sent her to return to work, but every day was picked up by car, even if he himself If I can't go, I will send a driver to go there.

Recently, a large hotel will be settled in the ancient city. It was Mr. Fang who led the way. She met and talked with the person in charge of the other party, but Ivy also wanted to grab this business, and the vice president of this hotel and Tang Xixi's father The relationship is very close.

Both sides have friendship, and in the end the person in charge was embarrassed and decided to bid.

Both parties draw up their own design drawings, and then compare them.

When this plan was made, all three parties were present. Seeing Ye Chuxiao, Tang Xiqian was extremely jealous when she met her enemies, and glanced at her slightly swollen belly: "Oh, you are really motivated. You married a wealthy family and you are pregnant. She was pregnant, and she came out to grab food from those of us who have nowhere to go."

"Why are you not settled? You don't have a husband, but you still have a father." Shen Ya, who accompanied Ye Chuxiao, retorted.

Tang Xiqian turned embarrassing, and cursed: "Two traitors, you don't forget the well digger when you drink water. Now you seem to have completely forgotten the kindness that Aiwei cultivated you, and instead dig the corner of the original owner's wall."

"Grace?" Shen Ya "cut" and wanted to say more, but was stopped by Ye Chuxiao: "Why are you arguing with her?"

Just such a fluffy sentence made Tang Qianqian feel more upset than Shen Ya's sharp mouth. From the beginning to the end, she hated Ye Chuxiao's calmness the most. She felt that it was a complete contempt.

"Wait, Ye Chuxiao, I won't let you win this time." She raised her chin to declare war, Ye Chuxiao looked at her, but felt that she was childish, and smiled: "Okay, see you later."

But Tang Qianqian watched her back walk away, but felt discouraged again. Even though she didn't want to admit it, she was indeed inferior to Ye Chuxiao in terms of design talent.

But besides ability, wouldn't it be okay to rely on other things?She wanted to win back this round and make Ye Chuxiao look bad.Tang Xiqian gritted her teeth...

Ye Chuxiao got busy when he returned to the studio, and in the next two days, he also worked overtime and drawing at night.

Lu Zhengnan watched from the side, feeling distressed: "Isn't it just a bid? If you really want it, I'll find someone to tell you."

"I said I have to rely on myself." She pushed him to sleep: "I'll be fine in a while."

Lu Zhengnan sighed: "You are just too straightforward."

Ye Chuxiao only stuck out her tongue at him, then continued to work.

On the day before the bidding, the other party asked to see the blueprint, so she sent it over. When she came out, she met Tang Qianqian again at the elevator entrance, greeted her and prepared to leave.

But Tang Qianqian called her back: "Ye Chuxiao, believe it or not, you will lose tomorrow."

Ye Chuxiao didn't speak, just smiled, and got into the elevator.

Tang Qianqian kept looking at her until the last crack of the elevator door was closed, with a meaningful smile on her face.

The next morning, Ye Chuxiao went to the bidding site on time and opened the door of the meeting room, only to find that everyone else had already taken their seats.

She was startled, and nodded apologetically: "Sorry, I'm late."

"It's not too late." The person in charge still smiled kindly: "Now that we're all here, let's start. Let's look at Ivy first."

He motioned to his secretary to project the design on the wall. Ye Chuxiao just glanced at it, and his mind was stunned——Tang Qianqian's design elements were almost the same as his own, and then he made some adjustments. is also lower by a few percentage points.

There is clearly an inexplicable inside story here.

"Let's take a look at Designer Ye's next..." The person in charge was still speaking in a high-sounding manner, but was interrupted by Ye Chuxiao. Her eyes were full of anger, and Jing Jing said, "Don't look at it, it's on my foundation." The modified picture is naturally better than mine, and if you quote a lower price than me, I am sure to lose this match."

The person in charge couldn't help but smile dryly: "What do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean? I think everyone here knows better than me." Ye Chuxiao stood up and left angrily.

Tang Xiqian folded her arms and sneered: "The skills are not as good as people's, and they are still using strong words."

Ye Chuxiao, who walked to the door, turned around again, looked at her and smiled slightly: "Indeed, in this point, I am not as skilled as you. You have long been used to adding a few strokes to my pictures, and you will become yourself." The design started when I was an assistant, how can I have such shameless skills as you."

Tang Qianqian's face was livid with anger, Ye Chuxiao turned and left without looking back.

The scene was embarrassing, and everyone present was silent. Seeing this, Tang Qianqian barely calmed down her emotions, and greeted them with a smile: "Thank you everyone today. My father arranged a table for dinner tonight. Deputy Mayor Lin, who is in charge of industry and commerce, also wants to Go, and I invite you to join us too."

The person behind the pressure this time was Deputy Mayor Lin. Naturally, no one dared not to join in, so they all laughed and greeted for a while, pretending to forget the unpleasantness that happened just now...

But when Ye Chuxiao left the building, she felt extremely aggrieved.

Lu Zhengnan was right, her temperament was too straightforward, she only thought that black was black and white was white.

But in fact, sometimes the world is not so simple and clear.

You work hard and diligently, and others just need to make a stumbling block behind your back and play tricks, and you can easily turn the tables.

After walking alone on the street for a long time, she thought of taking a taxi, but it was at a T-junction, and the car was not easy to park, so she had to cross the road to the opposite side.

But just as she was walking to the middle of the road, she glanced inadvertently, but suddenly froze.

She saw a person standing on the other side of the intersection across the traffic box.

He was facing her sideways, not looking in this direction, and on his right face, there was a knife wound from the cheekbone to the chin.

You Senhan walked up the bones from the soles of her feet like a snake. Her body trembled unconsciously, and she couldn't move any further. She just stood there in a daze until the traffic lights changed, and there was a car It suddenly branched out from the slanted spine and galloped towards her...

Ye Chuxiao couldn't dodge in time, the scene when she saw her mother being crushed to death in front of her, this moment seemed to be happening again, she closed her eyes at the last moment.

There was a fierce brake sound, and the car almost brushed against her and stopped, followed by the owner's scolding voice: "You don't have eyes or a brain, why are you standing in the middle of the road in a daze..."

Opening his eyes in a daze, Ye Chuxiao realized that he was still alive, and subconsciously looked in the direction where the person was standing just now.

However, the person has disappeared without a trace.

Did I recognize the wrong person, or was it simply an illusion?Ye Chuxiao was at a loss, but the chill in her heart did not fade away.

The owner of the car saw her in a daze, and also saw that her figure seemed to be pregnant. He was afraid that something might happen, so he didn't dare to scold her any more, so he got out of the car and asked.

"I'm sorry, I was distracted just now." She forced herself to restrain her thoughts and apologized.

Seeing that she didn't mean to extort money, the other party was also relieved, and only told her to walk carefully, and then drove away.

She went to the opposite side of the road to take a taxi. She could have bypassed the sentry box and walked from the west gate, but she had lingering fears and told the master to drive straight and go out from the north gate by detour...

In the evening, Lu Zhengnan had something to do, and it was his driver who came to pick her up from get off work. He hadn't come back at ten o'clock, but she felt extremely tired all day long, so she went to bed early.

With the dirty eyes stretching out towards her, and the piercing laughter all around, she is like a prey being forced into a cage, unable to escape...

The fruit knife on the table was shining with a sharp cold light, as if telling her, kill, kill that person...

With blood on her hands and overwhelming rain, she ran desperately, desperately...

She wanted to shout, but couldn't, and wanted to move, but couldn't. It wasn't until there was a thunderstorm outside the window that she finally woke up.Lying on the pillow, his whole body was drenched in cold sweat, panting heavily.

She hadn't dreamed of these things for many years, but seeing that person today, she dreamed again.

This was the worst nightmare in her life.

She thought she had woken up long ago... She buried her face between her knees, her back trembling unconsciously.

Unable to fall back to sleep, and afraid of disturbing Mi Lier, she got up and went downstairs quietly, took a cup of hot water, and nestled on the sofa.

After the thunder just now, it was raining heavily outside now, just like that night.

Those terrible scenes drilled into her mind one after another. She tried to turn on the TV calmly, but she was still panicked when she saw the excitement on the screen.

At some point, the door opened, and Lu Zhengnan came in, brushing the rain on his shoulders, but suddenly saw her curled up on the sofa, came over in surprise, and reached out to touch her face.

But she seemed to be frightened, and flicked away in panic, until she saw clearly that it was him, she murmured "Zhengnan", got up quickly, wrapped her neck around his neck and leaned into his arms.

Her voice seemed to be crying, and he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, Chu Xiao?"

She just buried her face in his arms and shook her head without saying anything.

The familiar and safe aura on his body made her yearn for it. At this moment, her heart was terribly empty.

She needs him, only him.

Raising her head, she searched for his lips in a panic. He didn't know why, but he took pity on her and kissed her proactively.

"Want me." She called out in a low voice, and he was taken aback. She had never been so straightforward.

But at this moment, she seemed to be afraid of something and needed his comfort.

With a sigh, he hugged her obediently: "OK."

After entering the guest room, he put her on the bed and removed her nightgown.

His warm and dry hands walked over her skin, and her heart gradually settled down.

This is her lover, someone she trusts with all her heart.

She is not afraid.
