The two of them were stunned for a moment, and then felt a little wrong.
What is Su Qingbai thinking about, he can't have to share a bar with her.
Ning Xi pulled the assistant to inquire about Su Qingbai's purpose for letting her go up, and the assistant euphemistically expressed that he didn't know about Mr. Su's private affairs.
Ning Xi sat in the room for ten minutes, her palms sweating, and she was still apprehensive.
The assistant knocked on the door for the second time to urge, Ning Xi washed his hands and followed the assistant to the banquet hall.
The huge ballroom was empty and quiet.
The assistant led Ning Xi around a few times and pushed open the small room on the side of the hotel, where Su Qingbai was inside, leaning on a chair and waiting for Ning Xi.
The room is very business-like, with a prototype dining table in the middle of the room and a delicate cup and plate that have not been touched.
The tableware in front of Su Qingbai has been dismantled and washed, and there is only one pair left, so tonight's dinner is really her and Su Qingbai.
Ning Xi felt a little uncomfortable, nervous and panicked, what she was afraid of, she couldn't even tell herself.
Su Qingbai glanced at Ning Xi and asked the assistant to take her to a seat.
Ning Xi greeted Su Qingbai crampedly. Su Qingbai lowered his head and moved the corners of his mouth, a rare smile appeared on his face, Miss Ning, are you very nervous?
Ning Xi wanted to say that the last time he drank me into the emergency room, could I not be nervous?
Ning Xi pursed her lips, it was a little.
Well. Su Qingbai asked the assistant to pour tea for Ning Si, don't be nervous, we only eat, don't drink.
As he spoke, the assistant had already taken away the wine glass and the decanting container and gently brought it to the door.
The room suddenly quieted down, Ning Xi was a little embarrassed, her palms were sweating all the time, she pulled a piece of paper and held it in her palm, and the tissue was soaked.
Mr. Su. Ning Si took a breath, can I ask you a question?
Su Qingbai spread his hands, of course he could. What do you want to know, just ask.
Ning Xi said worriedly: I want to know why you invited me to dinner?
Su Qingbai was stunned for a second, but only for a second, he smiled decently, have a light meal, Miss Ning doesn't have to be so stressed, right?
Ning Xi nodded, what he said was to have a light meal, that is, to eat.
I understand. Ning Si said.
At this time, the assistant brought in a hot towel to wipe her hands, and Ning Si took a piece, and pinched the warm towel in the palm of her hand, making her feel better.
Su Qingbai slowly untied the cuffs, folded them up twice, and then took the hot towel and wiped his fingers carefully. Put it back on the plate when you're done.
He gives people the feeling that he really wants to gossip.
Ning Xi put the hot towel aside, and soon, the waiter came in to serve the dishes, the atmosphere was so quiet that it was weird, she picked up the teacup and took a sip, and her eyes swept the dishes on the table.
Su Qingbai leaned back in his chair and asked Ning Si with a smile: Miss Ning, have you ever been to Jiangcheng before?
Ning Xi put down the cup and replied seriously, no. However, my girlfriend has lived in Jiangcheng for three years.
Su Qingbai showed interest, living in Jiangcheng or going to school?
Ning Xi said: Work.
Su Qingbai nodded, and followed Ning Xi's words and said: The environment in Jiangcheng is good, except that it is hot in summer, and the temperature is suitable in winter, which is very good.
Ning Xi nodded cooperatively, Mr. Su, you know Jiang Cheng very well?
Su Qingbai lowered his eyes, I am from Jiangcheng.
Ning Xi had known Su Qingbai before, and his information clearly stated that he was from Nancheng, so his face showed surprise.
Su Qingbai said: Before I was eighteen years old. Growing up in Jiangcheng, I was taken back to Nancheng after the age of eighteen, and few people know that I am from Jiangcheng, you are one.
Maybe it was because of talking about life, Su Qingbai's deterrent power was also a little weaker, Ning Xi tensed his nerves all night, slowly relaxed, and listened quietly to Su Qingbai's sharing.
Compared with Su Qingbai, who was taciturn at work, he was alive at the dinner table, laughing when talking about happy things, talking about unforgettable memories, and showing a look of longing.
Su Qingbai transferred a plate of spicy chicken to Ning Si and tasted it, their spicy chicken was delicious.
Ning Xi smiled and sandwiched a piece, the chicken was tender and spicy.
Ning Xi said: I didn't expect that Mr. Su had a lot of research on eating.
Su Qingbai put down his chopsticks, and he said slowly: In fact, this restaurant was not so high-end before, it was a small restaurant on the side of the road, and when I was a child, my family loved to eat here, and later this area was renovated, and the small restaurant became a high-end restaurant. Fortunately, the taste hasn't changed much, and it's still the same as in my memory.
Ning Xi found that before Su Qingbai mentioned it, there was a light smile between his eyebrows and eyes, and his sharp and sharp facial lines became soft.
The meal was quite pleasant, Ning Xi wiped his hands, sat on the chair and said with a smile to Su Qingbai: Mr. Su, this meal won't be for others, right?
Su Qingbai was stunned for a moment, he understood Ning Xi's ridicule, no. This meal is what I invite you.
Ning Xi said politely: Thank you, Mr. Su, I will also invite you to dinner if I have the opportunity.
Su Qingbai regained his previous bland look, let's talk about it.
Ning Xi didn't expect to really invite him to dinner, that is, he was polite later, and when he heard him say this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The assistant came in with a mobile phone, Su Qingbai glanced at Ning Xi, and walked to the windowsill with the mobile phone to answer.
Ning Xi stood up with interest, told Su Qingbai to go back first, and then explained a few words to the assistant. I hurried downstairs.
After walking for a while, Ning Xi's phone lit up.
She then remembered that before eating, she had put her phone on silent. When I unlocked the screen, there were more than a dozen missed calls, as well as WeChat.
Ning Ci's heart tightened for no reason, she slid away from the missed call, except for one Li Huai, the rest were all calls from Li Ti.
Ning Xi rubbed his face, walked to the window and dialed back Li Ti's phone, looking at a certain place with his eyes unknowing.
It seemed that they were waiting for the phone, and as soon as it rang, it was connected, and Li Ti asked unsteadily: "Ah, why didn't you answer the phone just now?"
Ning Xi listened to Li Ti's anxious voice and felt a little distressed, I was just having dinner with the leader, but I didn't hear it.
Li Ti was silent for two seconds and asked: Su Qingbai?
Ning Xi didn't remember when he mentioned this name to Li Ti, and he didn't care how he would ask about this person, huh. It's him.
Li Ti fell into silence for a long time, and Ning Si felt that Li Ti was a little wrong, so he asked him: What are you doing?
Li Ti said: I'm running.
Ning Xi glanced at the time, it was half past nine in the evening. What are you running at this time?
Li Ti seemed to have stopped, wheezing violently, your phone can't get through, I'm afraid I'll fly to find you by myself, so I'm thinking that if I finish ten laps and you haven't answered my call, I'll go to you.
Ning Xi's heart was warm, sour, and he blinked his eyes and asked him: How many laps have you run?
Li Ti's breathing became heavier and heavier, and the snorting was accompanied by a dry echo, seven and a half circles.
You're not stupid. Ning Xi said, tired or not?
Li Ti chuckled, not tired.
He slowed down for a while, his breathing gradually stabilized, how was he eating?
Ning Xi recalled: It's okay. It's just that people who don't know each other are more embarrassed to eat.
Ning Xi suddenly thought of one thing, by the way, do you know Director Gao when you are tired?
Director Gao? Li Ti's heartbeat skipped a beat, and he pretended to be calm and said: What Director Gao?
Ning Si propped his elbows on the windowsill, his eyes drooped, and he moved a small plant on the windowsill with one hand, I don't know who it is, but Su Qingbai targeted me before and took care of me now, all because of this senior director. You really don't know?
Li Ti waited for two seconds and said: I really don't know. My doctor still doesn't recognize everything, how can he know the people in your business world.
Li Ti said this, Ning Xi didn't go to her heart, she muttered in a low voice: I'll ask my dad to inquire. After all, they helped me, and I need to know who it is.
Li Ti replied and said tentatively: Maybe I don't want you to know?
Ning Xi was funny, he didn't want me to know, what is he trying to do?
Li Ti was afraid of revealing his stuffing, so he didn't say anything more.
Su Qingbai's footsteps came from far and near. Ning Xi glanced up, because she was on the phone, she straightened up and nodded to him in greeting.
Su Qingbai responded lightly, his suit was on his arm, and he replied to the message with one hand and disappeared into the corridor.
Ning Xi came back to his senses, chatted with Li Ti for a few more words, and hung up the phone.
The next day, the factory open day was held, because Su Qingbai's aseptic factory was open to the public for the first time. A lot of media were invited.
Su Qingbai attended the speech as a leader.
Ning Xi sat in the audience and watched, Su Qingbai was still wearing a dark suit today, the tie was meticulous, the whole person was full of energy, standing on the stage, calm and calm, strategizing, not the same as the person at the dinner table who was easy to miss the old.
I don't know if Ning Xi kept staring at him, when he finished speaking, his eyes swept over the audience. He paused for two seconds before quickly turning to leave.
Ning Xi applauded happily, watched the documentary, then received the number plate, followed the staff to change into dust clothing, and entered the sterile workshop.
The workshop is indeed very shocking, the top 500 companies deserve their name, and Ning Xi visited the production line, and she had a new inspiration in her mind.
Inspiration about temperature, about human touch.
Ning Xi wandered in the passage for a long time, and the initial inspiration was transformed and upgraded in his mind step by step, slowly fused with the prototype, and finally appeared clearly.
She wrote it down on her mobile phone with satisfaction, and then followed the visiting team out of the factory, and the moment she took off the dust suit, she felt a sense of transparency and open-mindedness.
The stones that have accumulated in my heart can finally be removed.
Ning Xi walked out quickly, she was going to take a taxi back to the hotel, and then make the inspiration.
As soon as he walked to the door, Ning Xi and Su Qingbai bumped into each other.
Su Qingbai held Ning Xi's elbow and whispered, "Miss Ning, be careful."
Ning Xi looked up and saw Su Qingbai, instinctively pushed his hand away, took a few steps back and looked at him and said, "Mr. Su, I'm sorry." I was in too much of a hurry to see the way.
Su Qingbai said that it was okay, he saw that Ning Xi was very anxious, and asked: Are you in a hurry to leave?
Ning Xi nodded, I was inspired. I'm going back to the hotel.
Su Qingbai glanced at the assistant and said to Ning Si: I'll send you.
Ning Xi looked at him in surprise.
Su Qingbai didn't seem to realize his abnormality, let's go, my car happened to be nearby.
Ning Xi hurriedly prevaricated: No need, Mr. Su, I'll just take a taxi myself.
Su Qingbai didn't care what Ning Xi's attitude was, and led the people out.
Ning Xi got into the car hard, Su Qingbai glanced at the rearview mirror, are you so afraid of me?
Of course I'm afraid, you're Party A's father. Ning Xi didn't dare to say this even if she had ten guts, she smiled crampedly and didn't speak.
Su Qingbai didn't say anything, started the car, and slowly drove into the traffic.
Ning Si leaned on the car door and sat upright, his nerves stretched into a straight line.
Mr. Su, did you mean that Director Gao was also taking me back to the hotel? Ning Xi's voice was very soft, like a kitten.
Although it was very light, falling in the silent car, Su Qingbai heard it clearly.
What do you say? He gave a rare open-ended answer for Ning Xi to guess.
Ning Xi pursed her lips, Su Qingbai was difficult to understand, and his answer was definitely more difficult, so she gave up directly and turned her head to look out the window.
Su Qingbai glanced at Su Qingbai twice with his spare eyes, this person's usual aura is too strong, who would have thought that he would also drive by himself.
Su Qingbai's afterglow glanced in the rearview mirror from time to time, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
He couldn't help but think of Director Gao's phone call. He came over with a rage, Qingbai, are you cooperating with Cain? Don't embarrass the person in charge of Cain, it seems to be called Ning Xi. You know?
It was the first time for Su Qingbai to hear his brother-in-law and uncle so strong, so he smiled and asked: Why?
Director Gao didn't say the reason, anyway, Su Qingbai couldn't trouble Ning Xi, so he would take care of it when necessary.
Su Qingbai also heard some clues, Lao Gao should be helping people get out of the relationship, otherwise how could he force him so strongly.
When he hung up the phone, Su Qingbai teased: Fortunately, I know your character. Otherwise, I'm going to think crookedly.
Hum. Director Gao snorted coldly, and your aunt was listening to it.
Su Qingbai suddenly regretted it, and Director Gao said it again: Qingbai, you will be thirty-six in the New Year, and it is another round of fate, what are you dissatisfied with the girls that your aunt said to find you?
Su Qingbai's brain hurt, and his brows furrowed, Lao Gao, isn't it good to urge your son to give birth to a grandson for you, why are you torturing me?
Without waiting for Director Gao to nag again, Su Qingbai hurriedly hung up the phone.
Later, when he said something very heavy during the meeting, Ning Xi's eyes were red, and tears were stored in his eyes and he stubbornly refused to fall, which was quite touching him.
It's not that I'm distressed, it's that I think of how he was wronged when he was young.
After Ning Xi left the office, he reflected for the first time on whether he was too serious about the newcomer and stung the other party's self-esteem. And then a little blame.
In case the other party complains to Lao Gao, Lao Gao is the only one who asks what to do.
The driving was slow, one car was next to the other, Su Qingbai stared at the front intently, Ning Xi didn't speak, and he didn't take the initiative to speak.
Ning Si's mobile phone rang, and the expression on her face suddenly came alive, her lips hooked into a smile, and her voice was low, Dr. Li. Aren't you busy today?
Li Ti said softly: I'm not busy, I'm very idle today. What about you? Are you done?
Ning Xi glanced at Su Qingbai and said, "After the tour, I am on my way back to the hotel."
Li Ti said that the weather in Jiangcheng was going to rain, so he asked Ning Xi to go out and bring an umbrella, and Ning Xi obediently responded.
Hung up the phone, Su Qingbai, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke: Friend?
Ning Xi snorted, not planning to continue the topic.
She leaned on the window and looked at it, and the sky was covered with black clouds, pressing the sky darkly, and the wind was blowing a little hard, rolling up the leaves on the lawn, and throwing them up and floating away.
Ning Xi muttered: It's going to rain.
Su Qingbai said: Not necessarily, Jiangcheng has always been in this kind of weather, with heavy thunder and little rain.
Ning Xi pursed his lips, and Su Qingbai asked: Are you afraid of raining?
Ning Xi has always hated rain, as if nothing good happens when it rains, and the black cloud cover seems to be a bad omen, making her feel depressed for no reason.
I don't like rain. Ning Xi is truthful.
Su Qingbai held the steering wheel with one hand, and the other hand was propped up on the car window, and the sleeves of his shirt were rolled up to his elbows at some point, revealing a thin arm, he seemed to enjoy this kind of weather.
Of course, Ning Xi didn't ask.
The car slowly slid to the door of the hotel.
A black Mercedes stopped at the door in front, and Ning Si and their car stopped for a while, waiting for the car in front to drive away before sliding over.
The car stopped steadily, Ning Xi pushed the door and got out of the car, and his eyes fell on the shoes of people not far away.
Before she could raise her head, she heard the other party say in surprise: Ah?
Hearing the familiar voice, Ning Xi frowned and raised her head, and sure enough, she saw Xu Du staring at Ning Xi with a look of surprise.
Ning Xi took two steps back, Su Qingbai walked to Ning Xi's side, his eyes swept over Xu Dui, his tone was natural and familiar, do you know?
Xu Du was the first to react, and he asked Ning Xi with a calm face: Who is he?
Ning Si took a step back, just stepped on the steps, and fell backwards without standing, Su Qingbai took the first step to support Ning Si's waist and pulled the person up.
Xu Dui's face turned completely black. I couldn't help but swing my fist over.
Ning Xi's eyes darkened, and she pounced in front of Su Qingbai, trying to block Xu Dui's fist. Su Qingbai pinched her arm, turned sideways and caged her whole person into his arms, and his shoulder blade was punched by Xu Duan.
His fist was very hard, and it smashed on Su Qingbai's body, and he just frowned.
Ning Xi was so frightened that she hurriedly broke out, protecting Su Qingbai behind her, and she yelled at Xu Dui: Xu Dui. It's crazy, isn't it?
Xu Dui's eyes were red, his face was ugly, and he stared at the two close people, as if blood would drip from under his eyes.
May I ask you who he is?" Xu Dusk asked with a fierce look in his eyes.
It doesn't matter who he is to you. Ning Xi tried her best to calm herself, she helped Su Qingbai and said: Your behavior today, I will call the police immediately.
Xu Du watched Ning Si take out his mobile phone in place, Su Qingbai held down Ning Si's hand, took away the mobile phone and pinched it in his hand, without calling the police. Do you know each other?
Ning Xi saw that his face was not very good, and he should have been injured by Xu Duan. whispered: I'm sorry Mr. Su, I'll take you to the hospital.
Su Qingbai held Ning Xi's hand with his backhand, and asked: He is pestering you?
Ning Xi had to admit frankly: He is my ex-boyfriend, and we have broken up.
Su Qingbai nodded, so that Ning Xi didn't have to call the police.
Xu Du couldn't stand Ning Si being so close to Su Qingbai, so he snorted coldly: Ah Si, you changed people so soon?
What about Li Ti? Dumped by you?
Why didn't I see you so attentive before?
Xu Du looked at Su Qingbai, raised his chin, and said defiantly: Uncle, do you know that you are hugging my ex-girlfriend?
