Xiao Yun knew how to speak. He stopped halfway and left an end.

In fact, not only the employees who gossip outside, he also wondered why he gave Sheng Tang to Fu. If the prosperous Tang Dynasty belonged to the Qi family, the Qi family would not lag behind the Fu family in the field of high technology.

Qi Lingyang raised his eyes and his voice was never cold. He said, "you're confused?"

Xiao Yun realized that he had touched Qi Lingyang's bottom line and immediately bowed his head and said, "subordinates dare not."

Qi Lingyang glanced at him lightly: "go out."

After a few minutes of silence, the mobile phone in the corner of the table suddenly rang. Qi Lingyang turned his head and looked at the flashing screen and reached out to pick it up.

Qi Haipeng called. As soon as he got through, Qi Lingyang said, "father."

Qi Haipeng relaxed when he heard this sentence. He said, "you were wronged by the morning meeting?"

Qi Lingyang smiled briefly and said, "I'm not a child. What grievance is not grievance. It's just the necessary transition. "

Qi Haipeng said, "I'm relieved if you think so."

He paused for two seconds and said, "Fu robbed the company's project. I'm afraid it's not peaceful in the future."

"Ling Yang, you..."

"Father, my surname is Qi. I think I have answered with my actions." Qi Lingyang's voice was flat, but he did not hesitate.

He knows the purpose of Qi Haipeng's call. His surname is Qi, but in his blood vessels, there is blood surnamed Fu. Moreover, he once participated in the competition for the successor of the Fu family.

On the phone, Qi Haipeng's slow voice came with only one word: "OK."

When the phone hung up, Qi Lingyang pulled the tie between his necks and stood up.

He faced the landing window, his hands inserted in his waist, his broad back and his tall posture gave people a sense of strength and reliability.

But if you look carefully, you can also see some lonely fatigue from the straight back.

Not long after entering the company, there are not many trustworthy people on hand, and those old employees look at it with different eyes, which is the helplessness and challenge of every new leader.

But since he promised to bear the burden, he would not shirk it again.

The gentle eyes became sharp.

At present, we have to deal with Fu's provocation, but we also have to deal with the impact of the video door incident. Therefore, the banquet at home is particularly important

At an altitude of nearly 100 meters, he can see far, far away, and in the distance, Fu's tall building stands in the clouds.

He narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't know whether the man was standing in the same position and looking at this side.

Fu's taking over Feng's big order seems to make a lot of money, but in the long run, Fu may not take advantage.

If Fu Shi doesn't take over the project, but also reliably competes for the market with its own software and buys Feng Shi's software copyright? Hehe, don't you have to spit out the money you earn?

Fu would rather do business at a loss than rob his business. What is his intention?

Fu and Qi have maintained a delicate balance for a long time, and Fu Hanchuan suddenly broke this calm... Qi Lingyang's lips curled coldly, pulled out a sneer, and the fundus of his eyes glittered with a sharp cold light.

……

Pillow garden.

Su Xiang took a business card from the demolition foreman and looked again. He was not sure that the banquet on it was the banquet gentleman in the pillow garden.

But there are few people surnamed banquet. Among the people she knows, she only knows such a person.

Yan Gu, a very strange name. Who uses the word "Gu" in his name?

She called again, but no one answered. Su Xiang decided to go there in person.

The primary school apprentice of pillow garden frowned when he saw Su Xiang standing at the door, but said politely, "Miss Su, we don't receive without an appointment."

Su Xiang smiled and said, "I want to make an appointment, but you don't accept it. What can I do?"

The pupil said, "then you can only invite Miss Su to eat elsewhere."

Su Xiang smiled: "I don't understand. Pillow garden is a place to do business. I can afford money and have no bad record. Why doesn't your boss do my business?"

The primary school apprentice was serious, but he didn't answer. Su Xiang pulled his hair, smiled and said, "I've seen two sides with the banquet boss. Is the banquet boss afraid of being attracted by my beauty, so he won't receive me anymore?"

"You..." the primary school apprentice looked at Su Xiang and his face turned red. Unexpectedly, there was such a boastful person who didn't look in the mirror?

Su Xiang's lip angle maintained a 45 degree upward angle and blinked again at the primary school students.

She doesn't look like a country. She knows herself, but just to stimulate her.

Without hitting the smiling face, the primary school apprentice swallowed the tone and said, "our boss only explained and didn't accept Miss Su's business, so please go back to Miss Su Xiang."

After saying this, he had no intention to spend any more time with Su Xiang, so he turned and went in.

With the footsteps far away, Su Xiang slightly breathed out and looked at the sky.

At this time, the sun is in the sky, shining on the warm body. Fortunately, it's not summer, otherwise you must have heatstroke waiting like this.

She took out a paper towel from her bag, wiped the doorstep and sat down directly.

She planned to stay here until the banquet gentleman received her.

Due to poor sleep recently, I have been basking in the sun and have nothing to do. I feel tired and lazy, so I sat down and slept.

Her back rested against the half wooden door behind her, her legs bent slightly, and there was no image to speak of.

In the inner courtyard, a man came from one side of the path. From his point of view, through the half open wooden door, you can see the half figure exposed at the door. The man's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, but also fleeting, and became expressionless again.

The Deputy behind him followed him and whispered, "I haven't left yet."

The man's shoulder was casually covered with a coat, which was still wearing the old knitted vest. He held a square handkerchief in his hand. He tucked in his shoulder coat, covered his lips, coughed, put his hand, and then walked forward.

A pond was opened on the left side of the house, where wild fish were raised from the lake. The man spread a palm to the Deputy behind him. The Deputy immediately handed him the dry steamed bread.

The man broke the steamed bread and threw it into the pond. Several fish in the pond immediately surrounded him. He pointed to one of the fish. His deputy understood, picked up the net bag on the wall and fished it into the pond. In the blink of an eye, the fish jumped around in the net bag.

The man said, "clean it and send it to the kitchen."

With that, he walked into the house without looking at the door again.

The sun in the sky moved a little bit at an invisible speed. When Su Xiang slept deeply, her cold back was empty. She fell back and almost fell over.

"Ah!" She was so frightened that she woke up immediately. The primary school apprentice looked at her and said faintly, "Miss Su, you haven't left yet?"

In fact, this sentence is purely a rush. Su Xiang patted the dust and stood up. The panic had subsided just now, and there was no half embarrassment on his face. She said, "how can I leave before I see Mr. Yan?"

The primary school student was so angry that he said, "Miss Su has to wait. It's not easy to rush people in our small restaurant. But we want to receive distinguished guests. Please let Miss Su aside. "

Su Xiang looked at the sky. There was a tempting aroma in the air. It was already noon.

Although the pillow garden is located in a remote place, the guests who come here are distinguished guests that ordinary people can't see. Naturally, they don't want to be seen. Su Xiang knew the rules, smiled and nodded, "OK."

She was only curious about the owner of the garden, but she was not interested in who came here.

Su Xiang walked down the steps and walked around the garden wall.

Sitting for too long just now, my legs are sour and numb, just stretching my muscles and bones.

The last two times I came here were in the middle of the night. I looked remote and desolate here. At this time, I felt good. There are birds in the sky and weeds on the roadside. It is a very safe and comfortable place.

The sole of her shoe was stepping on the gravel and making a rustling sound. Su Xiang smiled and was glad to pick the day. If she had to stay here alone at night, she would be afraid.

At the edge of his vision, a dark shadow suddenly appeared. Su Xiang looked up and found a black car parked there.

The parking lot is right in front of the garden, so the car parked alone should be the owner of the garden, that is, the banquet gentleman.

She walked slowly over and looked around the front of the car at the logo, Rolls Royce?

Su Xiang's fingers slid slowly along the car logo of the flying goddess. Her eyebrows and eyes moved. She quickly walked a few steps to the rear of the car. Her mind floated to the rear of the car seen in the Su family's old house.

She didn't see the license plate at that time. Is it this car?

Su Xiang turned his head and looked to the end of the wall. His breath sank.

The sky sun moved to the west again, and the distinguished guests who came to dinner left.

The open round door closed again. Su Xiang put his hand on the door to prevent the primary school students from closing the door.

The primary school student was slightly stunned: "Miss Su, you haven't left yet?"

It's already three o'clock in the afternoon. I thought she was gone.

Su Xiang said, "I didn't say I wanted to go."

The primary school student shook his head and didn't say anything this time. Anyway, he couldn't persuade her to go, but he couldn't tell her.

As before, the door was only left half open. Su Xiang looked at the primary school apprentice to go and stopped him and said, "please wait a minute."

The primary school disciples didn't return and said directly, "Miss Su, don't be difficult for me. If Mr. Yan doesn't see you, I won't report it. "

Su Xiang sighed and said, "when did I tell you to report?"

The primary school disciple turned his head and said, "what do you call me?"

Su Xiang touched his stomach and said, "although I'm not your guest here, I've been waiting here for so long. Can I have a glass of water?"

The primary school apprentice looked at her. His thin body and face turned white. He pursed his lower lip and didn't respond. He turned and went in.

After a while, he came out, gave Su Xiang a cup of xuanmi tea in his left hand and a simple sandwich in his right hand, and turned away without saying anything.

Su Xiang looked at the water and sandwich in his hand, smiled, and said to his young back, "thanks."

The primary school apprentice stepped down, swept the woman sitting at the door, and shook her head in silence.

What's the big deal? I have to pull down my face to see Master.

Su Xiang listened to the footsteps slowly away behind him. He took a sip of warm tea and a bite of sandwich.

Speaking of it, she is also a person with a good face. There is no need to be so low. However, she probably has lived a lot without dignity in her life. This little grievance is nothing to her at all.

The study on the second floor of the villa.

The man stood behind a huge desk, with one hand behind him and the other holding a paintbrush.

On the long table, a two meter long painting paper was spread out. Only a small part of the landscape was painted on the paper. The pen and ink had been dried out. It could be seen that it was not newly painted.

The man has maintained this position for a long time. His deputy behind him looked at the sweat on his forehead and stepped forward and said, "boss, have a rest."

He handed the towel in his hand. The man looked back at him, silently put the pen on the pen holder and wiped his forehead with a towel.

The Deputy held him back a few steps, sat down on a sofa against the wall and poured hot tea.

The man's eyes still fell on the picture, sighed, shook his head and said, "take the pen again, you can't find that feeling."

The Deputy handed over the tea cup and said, "boss, you haven't painted for a long time."

This big desk is also new. In order to put this desk in the study, the pattern of the whole study has changed.

The man's legs are not good. Standing for a long time makes his knee bones ache faintly. He rubbed the knee bones in one hand and drank tea in the other hand. His eyebrows raised slightly and said, "yes, for a long time, his hands have been born."

He looked sideways at the painting wrapped in oil paper hanging on the wall, and his eyes were far-reaching.

The Deputy looked at him, calmed down and said, "boss, since Miss Su appeared, you began to take the pen again. Why didn't you see her?"

This sentence seemed to touch a man's taboo. The man looked cold and glanced at him. He was about to lecture when there was a knock at the door.

The man stared at his deputy and looked at the door: "come in."

The primary school apprentice came up respectfully: "Mr. banquet, all cleaned up."

After receiving the guests at noon, they need to be cleaned immediately so that they can be ready for the evening.

The man nodded, "well."

The primary school apprentice looked at him and opened his mouth. He wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say it. As soon as his mouth was closed and swallowed it to the tip of his tongue, the heel just turned, and the man spoke.

He asked, "is that man still there?"

The primary school student just dared not say what he meant. He opened his eyes and said, "I'm still there. I won't leave."

He saw the man's eyebrows locked up.

The primary school disciples stood in place and did not dare to leave. They looked at the man in a daze. It took about a minute to hear the man speak.

"I see. Go."

"Yes, Mr. Yan."

The primary school student nodded, and then turned and left.

When the door closed, the Deputy on one side seemed to say to himself, "I haven't left yet... The weather forecast says it will rain in the evening..."

Feeling the sight of the man, the Deputy immediately shut up.

It was getting dark. Su Xiang looked at the small amount of mobile phone power left and wondered if he wanted to go back to the car and charge it for a while. As soon as the thought flashed, a drop of water fell from her head and landed on her forehead.

Su Xiang reached out and touched the cold pool of water at his fingertips.

As if that drop of rain was a weather button, countless raindrops fell instantly, pattering down on the ground, and the dry road was soon wet.

Su Xiang's feet retreated and hid under the eaves of the door to take shelter from the rain. The oblique wind and heavy rain only showed embarrassment under such a situation.

The primary school student stood at the door of the house with an umbrella. He was going to send her the umbrella and asked her to leave. There was a cough behind him.

When he looked back, he saw the boss standing not far behind him and his eyes fell on the long umbrella in his hand.

The primary school disciple said, "she's still outside."

The man's face looked more ugly than before. He said coldly, "the VIP will come in a minute. Let her go away."

Then he went to the kitchen.

Trembling, the primary school student trotted out with an umbrella.

As soon as it rained, the sky was darker than usual. At this time, it was bright around, and the visibility was maintained only by the lights.

Su Xiang hid under the eaves, and the rain on his head fell like a rain curtain. Because of the light, he looked very good.

It was just that there was no sunshine and I was shivering with cold.

The primary school student stood behind the door and handed her an umbrella. He looked at her helplessly and said, "Miss Su, it's raining. You're proud and your meat is expensive. We're not responsible when you get sick."

"Has the final say poker faced you," he said. "I'm sick here. I'm not looking for your boss."

The next wave of distinguished guests was about to be received. The primary school apprentice didn't talk to her, but said, "our boss said he would come again. Do you know what to do?"

Su Xiang understood and opened his umbrella and went ahead.

This time, instead of walking behind the fence, she went to the parking lot.

The primary school apprentice looked at her direction, wiped her forehead, and finally refused to leave.

Su Xiang took his umbrella and sat in the car. He immediately turned on the heating and took a blanket from the back seat to surround himself.

Through the glass window, there are countless raindrops in front. The water splashes on the glass and breaks into more small droplets.

When several cars came, Su Xiang squinted and saw several people in black suits with umbrellas in their hands. Then, several people with big guy temperament came down from the car. The drivers and bodyguards supported umbrellas and escorted the big guys to the villa in front.

Several big men with women and high heels walked on the uneven stone path and walked with twists and turns.

Su Xiang recognized one of them from the Municipal Finance Bureau. After the charity dinner, the deputy director of the Finance Bureau also thanked Beicheng on behalf of Beicheng city.

Because Su Xiang's car was small and pulled over, she didn't turn on the lights, so no one noticed her car. Su Xiang held his chin in his palm and looked at those people all the way. The corners of her lips tilted slightly

A few hours later, Su Xiang watched the cars leave gradually before she opened the door and got off.

Before the rain stopped, Su Xiang walked slowly forward with his pillow garden umbrella in one hand and his own in the other.

When the primary school disciples came to close the door, they saw a figure coming slowly in the dim light in front of them, and suddenly had a headache.

"You didn't go?"

Su Xiang smiled, handed the umbrella over and said, "I've come to return the umbrella."

The primary school apprentice took the umbrella and listened to Su Xiang's distinctive Mandarin: "I just seemed to see someone from the Municipal Finance Bureau."

She looked back into the endless darkness. When she turned her head again, she kept a bright smile.

The little apprentice's eyes stared round. Although the woman in front of him had a friendly smile, she looked like a fox.

"You..."

Su Xiangman said: "I heard that many dignitaries like to come here, because pillow garden is a place for people to relax..."

Before she finished, the little apprentice interrupted her, "wait a minute."

He took a deep and helpless look at Su Xiang and turned to walk inside.

Su Xiang breathed softly and waited for a day. Finally, she looked a little, and it was not a virtual day waiting for her.

After a while, I heard steady footsteps on the road.

The footsteps were not heavy and were almost drowned by the sound of raindrops around, but Su Xiang still heard the difference of the footsteps from the sound of raindrops.

Because it's light and heavy.

A pair of ordinary old Beijing cloth shoes appeared in the eye. The toe of the shoes was wet by the rain. Up along the trouser leg, the man looked at her with indifferent eyes.

Su Xiang smiled, nodded to the man and said, "good evening, banquet boss."

The man looked at her indifferently and said in a low voice, "come in."

Su Xiang smiled, raised his eyebrows slightly and followed him in.

Having been to the villa twice, Su Xiang was already familiar with the layout inside. She followed the man to the living room where the guests were entertained.

Su Xiang looked at the simple food on the table and looked up at the man.

The Deputy opened a chair and the man sat down. He picked up his chopsticks and held a piece of winter bamboo shoots. He said, "Miss Su hasn't had dinner yet. Let's go together."

Su Xiang only ate a little at noon. Of course, she was disrespectful when someone invited her to dinner. When she sat down and picked up the dishes and chopsticks, she realized that there were only two of them left in the spacious living room.

In the silent air, I only heard the sound of chopsticks and spoons inadvertently touching the dishes. While chewing, Su Xiang pondered the opening words, but heard the man's low and hoarse voice ring out: "Miss Su insists on seeing me to feast someone, and even does not hesitate to threaten. What does that mean?"

Hearing the speech, Su Xiang put down the dishes and chopsticks, turned slightly, bent over to him and said, "I'm sorry, I don't want to threaten the banquet boss, but the banquet boss refused to meet me. That's the bad plan."

Su Xiang thought to himself: where do I really want to report something? These official and commercial branches are very complex. I'm idle. I don't have enough trouble to provoke those people.

The man chewed the food, swallowed it and drank a mouthful of soup to moisten his throat. He glanced at Su Xiang and said, "I heard you are the love and charity Ambassador of the disabled persons' Federation?"

"Yes." Su Xiang frowned slightly and said in his heart what he did when he talked about it. He listened to him, "the disabled persons' Federation is a place for charity, helping the poor, collecting donations from enterprises and those rich people, but Miss Su appears here and is not afraid of being said, which will affect your Ambassador's name?"

Su Xiang understood what he meant. She smiled, picked up the dishes and chopsticks on the table and said, "as the banquet boss said just now, the general work of the disabled persons' Federation is to raise money from enterprise leaders or rich people in addition to helping people in need."

She looked around and said, "the banquet owner's pillow garden is famous in the whole upper class circle. I think it's worth a lot. When I come here, I can certainly say that I hope the banquet owner will help me. "

The man looked at her with a sneer on his lips: "Miss Su has good eloquence. No wonder she can do great things."

Su Xiang smiled and asked, "why didn't Mr. Yan ask? Why did I insist on seeing you?"

The man was calm, picked a green vegetable and said in a low voice, "I don't know your mother. I've already said it. That's the same answer when you ask again. Why waste each other's time. "

Su Xiang said, "but I'm not here for my mother."

She put down the dishes and chopsticks, took out the business card from the bag behind her and put it on the table: "I don't know if this is your business card?"

The man's chopsticks paused, glanced at the business card, and an imperceptible light flashed at the bottom of his eyes. He glanced over his eyes, took his rice bowl, ate the last mouthful of rice, picked up the warm towel on the plate, wiped his lips and mouth.

Su Xiang looked at his elegant and calm movements with expectation in his eyes. Subconsciously, he had determined that she would get a definite answer.

She just saw the man's back, which was similar to what she saw that day, and there was that car

She said eagerly, "my house was bought by you. I want to ask why it was demolished so quickly?"

He saw the man put down the towel and looked at him with a cool look: "No."

Su Xiang was stunned and blinked. He hadn't recovered from this answer.

"Yan Lin, my name." The man only said a few words, but he had put aside the relationship with the man on the business card.

Su Xiang opened his lips, frowned and immediately asked, "Mr. Yan, do you know this man?"

The man looked at the business card and said in silence, "the pillow garden has the rules of the pillow garden. I won't answer other people's questions."

"Miss Su, can you solve your doubts?"

Su Xiang was a little depressed. After waiting for such a day, it was such a result.

She thought of the car and said reluctantly, "Mr. Yan, has Mr. Yan ever been to the day when the old house of the Su family was demolished?"

"No."

"But I saw a Rolls Royce there, the same one I saw behind the fence."

The man looked in the direction of the door, smiled and looked at Su Xiang: "Miss Su saw the license plate?"

"No."

"Many people in Beicheng have Rolls Royce, right? Is it too arbitrary for Miss Su to identify me with a car? "

Su Xiang pursed his lips and gripped the corners of his clothes with his fingers.

This man is too difficult to deal with. She intuitively believes that he has something to do with this matter, but he has come back again and again, so she can't study it further.

Su Xiang pinched his fingers and was about to say something, but the man spoke first.

He said: "I've heard that there are many rumors about Miss Su during this period. Instead of asking me some unimportant questions here, Miss Su might as well spend more time thinking about how to eliminate those effects."

He stood up and said, "it's getting late. Miss Su is busy, so there's no delay."

This is already a guest expulsion order. No matter how thick skinned Su Xiang is, she can't continue to consume it. Even if she consumes it, the other party's intentional avoidance is in vain.

Su Xiang stood up, took the business card and said to the man, "thank you for the dinner. Excuse me."

The man stood there with his hands on his back, waiting for her to leave. Su Xiang was unwilling to take a breath, turned his head and said with a smile: "banquet boss, see you another day."

Turning her head, she glanced at the man's vest and walked out.

The little apprentice had waited at the door and sent Su Xiang out.

The rain outside has stopped, and the remaining raindrops from the eaves are ticking. Another one falls on Su Xiang's forehead, taking away the warmth from the house.

Su Xiang stepped on the gravel road and looked back at the deeper house in the night.

She felt that it was not only about her mother, but also about the old house of the Su family.

……

Xiangyuan.

Su Xiang was hungry all day. During the meal in Zhenyuan, she also focused on asking questions. At this time, she was so hungry that her chest was close to her back. She stepped into the house and asked mom Zhang to prepare food.

She sat on the sofa, picked up the blanket and wrapped herself. Mother Zhang came down from upstairs with pearl in her arms. The little girl had just taken a bath and put on kitten's one-piece pajamas. She looked cute and cute. The little girl didn't see her mother all day. She broke away from Zhang's mother and ran towards Su Xiang. Su Xiang opened her blanket and wrapped the little girl in. Zhang's mother stood where she was and didn't enter the kitchen. Su Xiang looked at her, but saw Qi Lingyang come out with two bowls of shrimp fried rice. He said, "where have you been? You came back so late."“ I made some fried rice with leftovers and made do with it. " Qi Lingyang was too busy to come here until now, but he didn't see Su Xiang. I heard that she was hungry and divided one fried rice into two. Anyway, she didn't have much appetite. Su Xiang asked pearl to sit next to him, picked up his chopsticks and picked out the shrimps to feed pearl. The little girl covered her mouth and Nuo said, "brush your teeth." Su Xiang turned her head and put the chopsticks into her mouth. She said, "it's all right at home. I went to the pillow garden." Qi Lingyang looked up at her expression and came to a conclusion: "then you must return in vain." Pearl sat listening to them. She played with a strand of Su Xiang's hair in her small hand. Su Xiang scratched her itchy cheek and asked, "how do you know?" Qi Lingyang picked out the shrimps from the plate and put them in her bowl and said, "the banquet owner unknowingly made such a mysterious place in Beicheng. With your skills, do you think he will easily let you get the answer?" Su Xiang bit her chopsticks and stared at him. She twisted her eyebrows and said, "I don't get nothing."“ I saw his car. I can feel that he has something to do with my family, but he refuses to admit it. " When she saw the shrimp in the bowl, she hurriedly pushed, "enough, enough." She returned it again. Qi Lingyang didn't give in any more. He ate two mouthfuls of rice and swallowed it. Suddenly, the topic turned and said, "Fu, robbed Qi's project." After a few seconds of silence, Su Xiang looked at him and listened to Qi Lingyang slowly: "the balance between the Fu family and the Su family has been broken." In other words, the Fu family and the Qi family will not continue to be so calm in the future. He said to Su Xiang face to face to give her a psychological preparation. Su Xiang lowered her eyes and said, "I see..." in addition to saying such a sentence, she didn't know what else to say or what to say.
