Chapter 40: The Blue Diamond in Hand
In fact, Zhang Chen had already guessed that Li Murong had deliberately bought an imitation diamond, wanting to let himself pass the family banquet.
But there is only one end to doing this, that is, lifting a stone and shooting themselves in the foot, which will make their reputation plummet and cheapen the villain Liu Ning.
Zhang Chen felt angry and funny, shook his head and asked, "Mu Rong, you are really smart and confused for a while. Since Liu Ning dared to promise us to realize this bet at the family banquet, he must have invited experts to wait for us. I can tell the real thing at a glance, so how can I hide it from their eyes?"
Hearing this, Li Murong's face showed a look of helplessness, and he immediately sat back in the chair, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have let you come to the family banquet in the first place, otherwise how could I provoke such an unwarranted disaster." ”
"I just hope to make the company bigger and stronger, so that our family can hold their heads up in front of them, can't such a small wish be realized?"
Looking at Li Murong's pale and tired face, Zhang Chen's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he was extremely distressed.
"Mu Rong, you're not wrong, it's just Liu Ning, a group of treacherous villains with ill intentions. ”
"Don't worry, I will never disappoint you and your parents at this family dinner. If anyone wants to make a fool of you, I'll make them pay twice the price!"
If it had been before, Li Murong would have scolded Zhang Chen again and again. But this time, she was so rare that she didn't blame Zhang Chen, but sighed lightly.
"Forget it, I don't have any hope for you. Let's take this matter step by step, if there is really no way to solve it, we can only say that our life should be here. ”
"Zhang Chen, in fact, if you can mature a little bit, restrain your arrogant temper and start from scratch steadily, maybe I will really like you. After all, you are the only one who has nothing and still wants to protect me. ”
After speaking, Li Murong waved his hand, and said in a hoarse tone: "Go out to work, it will make others suspicious after a long time." ”
Zhang Chen left the office almost blank in his mind, because Li Murong's last words kept echoing in his mind.
"Mu Rong, in fact, you haven't given up on me all along, it's me who blames you. ”
"Don't worry. This time, don't say that Liu Ning wants to make things difficult for you, even if the entire Dongyang City is your enemy, I will stand up and protect you firmly behind me. ”
Thinking of this, Zhang Chen hurriedly walked into a corner, and then dialed the old housekeeper's phone.
"Young Master, if you have any orders, please feel free to explain. The old butler asked respectfully.
"I want to borrow the blue diamond of hope that my family treasures, and I will return it within three days. ”
Hearing this, the old housekeeper hesitated slightly, and then said with a smile: "According to the family rules of the Pang family, the head of the family and the young master are qualified to decide the right to use the blue diamond. I think it's better for you to discuss this matter with the head of the family in person. ”
"I don't want to talk to him now, so I'll trouble the old butler to help me convey my meaning. If you don't agree, I'll disappear after today, and whoever loves to be the heir of the Pang family has nothing to do with me. ”
Zhang Chen's attitude is very resolute, either you lend me the Hope Blue Diamond, or I will leave the burden and quit, and don't come to me if anything happens to the Pang family in the future.
In desperation, the old housekeeper could only say, "Young master, you give me half an hour, and I will go and discuss it with the head of the family." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Chen hung up the phone directly, humming a little song in his mouth and returning to his workstation.
Because he understands that the Pang family will never give up on him as the savior of the family because of a diamond.
As long as he can pass this hurdle, in his opinion, Li Murong will definitely completely change his mind about him, and the relationship between the two will naturally progress.
Xiao Ling'er saw that the corners of Zhang Chen's mouth were about to reach the root of her ears, and she couldn't help but ask curiously: "Zhang Chen, have you encountered any happy events, and you are so happy?"
"Of course. ”
Zhang Chen nodded happily, and then returned to work.
Half an hour later, Zhang Chen's mobile phone suddenly rang. When he picked up the phone, he heard the slightly excited voice of the old housekeeper: "Young master, the head of the family has agreed." From now on, I hope that the blue diamond will be at your disposal if you wish!"
"I just want to borrow it for two days, and I'll send it back when I run out. ”
Zhang Chen touched his nose and ordered, "Before noon tomorrow, let someone deliver the things to me." ”
"Don't worry, young master, I'll arrange it now. ”
After hanging up the phone, the smile on Zhang Chen's face became more and more intense, and even several colleagues around him showed disdainful expressions.
"Zhang Chen, I heard you say just now that you were planning to borrow something. If I'm not mistaken, I'm going to borrow a luxury car to pretend to be forced at Mr. Li's family banquet, right?"
One of the Mediterranean sneered and sneered, "If you want me to say that we can drive whatever kind of car we are capable of, why bother with all these bells and whistles." Your monthly salary is only 3,000, so I'm afraid you won't have much left over from renting a luxury car for one night, right?"
Zhang Chen just smiled faintly, and didn't intend to be like him.
Seeing that Zhang Chen didn't pay attention to himself at all, Mediterranean was even more energetic, and directly moved the chair to his side and began to chatter.
"Zhang Chen, if you want me to say, wouldn't it be good for you to have this spare money to buy two pieces of jewelry for Mr. Li? Although you can't buy any luxury goods, at least it's a piece of your heart. ”
"Hey, if I were you, no matter what, I would never disappoint Mr. Li again. Otherwise, what are you who have left Mr. Li?"
Originally, Zhang Chen was too lazy to care about this kind of person, but when he heard the last sentence, his expression couldn't help but become ugly.
Xiao Ling'er on the side also sighed in her heart, and hurriedly wanted to get up to stop this unpleasant conversation, lest Zhang Chen do anything under impulse.
"Old Wang, do you know why Wang Ba's lifespan is so long?"
Leng Buding was asked such a strange question by Zhang Chen, Mediterranean was stunned at first, and then subconsciously shook his head.
"Quite simply, because they never meddle in their own affairs, let alone dictate other people's lives. ”
After speaking, Zhang Chen got up and left the company directly.
", Lao Tzu is kind enough to comfort you here, even if you don't appreciate it, you still try to humiliate me, it's hopeless!"
After scolding angrily, Mediterranean slipped back to his seat.
"Poof..."
Xiao Ling'er couldn't help laughing, and at the same time became more and more curious about Zhang Chen.
