Boom-----

Strong water poured on his strong back, and his golden hair fluttered around like aquatic plants at the bottom of the water. The dinosaur on the arm was like a monstrous monster, opening its huge mouth and choosing people to devour.

Syllable!

The man walked out of the shower naked, pulling a white towel around his waist.

The phone on the coffee table in the living room rang non-stop, and the man walked over to look at the caller ID, answered the phone, and said, "I'm Nathan." ”

"My old friend, I heard that your business in China is not going well?" said a calm man's voice on the other end of the phone.

Canglong's eyes were slightly dark, but he said in a relaxed and casual tone: "It's just that there are some minor problems, I can deal with them." ”

"My old friend, you know, I want to believe in you, and I support you as always. However, there are some voices within you that are not against you..... As you should know, the Asian market is growing extremely fast and is now our second largest contributor to profits. It is understandable that some people covet this piece of fat. However, you have to put all the problems there in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, I'll have to send you to Africa to hunt ivory. ”

"Yes, Mr. President. Canglong agreed in a deep voice.

Hanging up the phone, Canglong slammed the mobile phone in his hand on the hard marble coffee table in front of him.

Click!

The phone was smashed.

Canglong pulled out the phone card from a pile of broken shell parts, folded it in half, and then got up and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling window.

In front of his eyes, there was a pool of turquoise river water like a jade belt.

"Damn it! Shi Daochen should be damned, Jiang Lai should be damned......"

"And how can this report the situation to the headquarters so quickly......"

"Everybody deserves to die. ”

The dragon's face was full of anger, and his eyes were bloodshot, like the dragon on his arm, eager for bloodlust and killing.

------

Shi Daochen stayed in the hospital for more than half a month, and was finally discharged from the hospital under the reluctant gaze of the little nurses.

Jiang Lai, Lin Chuyi, Gong Jin and others went to the hospital to pick up people, and Lin Chuyi specially asked the company to prepare a large business car, so that everyone can sit in the same car and it will be spacious...... Whenever there are two cars, Jiang Lai will choose to sit with Shi Daochen, and Lin Chuyi will be separated from Jiang Lai.

Lin Chuyi was reluctant to part with Jiang Lai.

After returning home, Shi Daochen was very happy and said, "It's still comfortable to live in my own home." The golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as their own kennels. ”

Jiang Lai looked at the decoration of the home and said, "This is not a kennel. ”

"I'm a metaphor. ”

"The metaphor is incorrect. ”

"Okay. Shi Dao admitted defeat, and returned to the daily routine of arguing with Jiang Lai "never won", and said: "It's rare that people are so together today, so we have to celebrate." ”

"Yes. Jiang Lai nodded and said, "I want to have a big meal." ”

"I'll cook. Shi Daochen said.

"No, I can't. Jiang Lai refused and said, "You are a patient, today is to welcome you home to celebrate, I can't let you cook." ”

"I don't know how to cook. Gong Jin said expressionlessly.

"Neither will I. Lin Chuyi looked embarrassed and said, "Is tomato egg noodles okay?" Usually my aunt cooks, and when my aunt is not there, I will make this for myself and eat a bite......

Jiang Lai thought about his cooking skills, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and said, "Let's order takeout." ”

"Good idea. Gong Jin agreed.

"Well, we can call for a big meal...... I know of a few restaurants that are good. If you're willing to wait a little longer, I can ask the chef at the Snow Restaurant to cook a few specialty dishes and deliver them over. ”

"Forget it. Proximity principle. Shi Daochen said loudly: "No matter how good the food is, the taste will change greatly after a delay of dozens of minutes." We ate at a nearby restaurant, hot. ”

Jiang Lai opened the takeaway APP, found a nearby restaurant very quickly, looked at Shi Daochen and asked, "What do you want to eat?"

"Let's eat local food. Light is the mainstay. Shi Daochen replied. His wound has just healed, and the doctor has repeatedly reminded him to quit alcohol and avoid spicy food.

After finishing speaking, my heart was slightly sour.

As a patient who has been shot, on the happy day of recovery and discharge, he can only eat takeout....... The only thing worth celebrating is that you have the ultimate choice of takeout.

"Okay. Jiang Lai nodded and said, "I will order you a few local dishes, and the three of us will eat Sichuan cuisine." Do you want to boil the fish fillet? Go back to the pot of meat, what about the dry pot fat intestines? Oh, let's have another dish of hairy blood......

"Okay, good......." Gong Jin's eyes lit up.

"It's great, it's all my favorite ......." Lin Chuyi held his heart in both hands.

Shi Daochen was stunned for a moment, and found that he couldn't stay any longer, and said, "I'll go upstairs and take a shower." ”

"Okay. Jiang Lai placed a successful order and said, "Move quickly, the food will be delivered in a while." ”

“......”

When Shi Daochen took a bath and changed clothes, and walked downstairs refreshed, Jiang Lai and Lin Chuyi were setting the table for food.

"The takeaway has arrived?" said Shi Daochen with a smile.

Jiang Lai sniffed his nose and asked, "Did you put on perfume?"

Shi Daochen almost stepped into the air, fell down the stairs, and said, "How can I have perfume?" is the smell of shower gel......

"No way. Jiang said, "The shower gel we both use is the same brand, and both smell of verbena...... The perfume that emanates from your body is obviously floral. ”

"Creams. Shi Daochen said: "I have the taste of cream." You don't need creams......."

Jiang Lai wanted to refute, but Lin Chuyi took a piece of meat from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth, and said with a smile: "How about you taste the meat of this pot." ”

Jiang Lai felt it attentively, nodded, and said, "It tastes good." ”

He turned to look at Shi Daochen again and said, "I don't use cream, but I have smelled it." I didn't smell it when you sent me to work before....... You're a perfume. ”

"Well, I put on the perfume. Shi Daochen sighed and said, "I've been lying in the hospital for too long, and I always feel the smell of disinfectant on my body......"

Jiang Lai was satisfied and said, "It's good to admit it directly, this is not an unsightly thing." ”

“......”

Jiang Lai and Lin Chuyi sat together, and Gong Jin and Shi Daochen sat opposite.

Shi Daochen picked up the soda in front of him and said, "Come, I wish us a long and healthy life." This shot made me realize that there is nothing more important than being alive. ”

"To health. ”

The other three also picked up the soda, and the four cups collided loudly.

Shi Daochen took a sip of soda, looked at Jiang Lai, who was sitting opposite, and said with a smile: "I finally have a home." ”

In the past, he and Jiang Lai were alone, if Jiang Lai was not there or when he was not there, he could only eat alone, drink tea alone, and live alone in this empty house.

Now, Jiang Lai has Lin Chuyi, and Gong Jin has also released his previous suspicions with himself...... Of course, the suspicion cannot be relieved, at least not as hostile as before, just like now, everyone happily sits together and eats takeout, which can make people feel unusually warm. This home also has the breath of home.

Jiang Lai nodded, turned to look at Lin Chuyi, and said, "Such a good atmosphere, suitable for marriage proposals." ”

“......”

------

When Jiang Lai came to the company, Lin Chuyi was already waiting in the office.

Seeing Jiang Lai coming in, he said with a smile, "We can go." ”

Jiang came to see Lin Chuyi wearing a white blazer with a short skirt of the same color, looking gentle and sexy, and the whole person gave people a dazzling feeling of white.

There is an old saying, called: a woman should be pretty, and she should be filial.

If a woman wants to be pretty, she should wear white.

However, white is an extremely discerning color. It's hard for the average person to handle.

Dark-skinned, fat, or even temperamental ...... Don't wear white.

Because white will expose these shortcomings even more obviously.

However, Lin Chuyi did not have such troubles at all.

Her white clothes are light and lovely, no matter her figure or appearance, she is a walking hanger.

Jiang Lai felt that this point was very compatible with himself.

"I'm ready. Jiang said.

So, the two went downstairs together and walked towards the underground parking lot.

As soon as Lin Chu drove, Jiang Lai habitually sat in the back seat.

Shi Daochen recuperated at home, this was the first time Jiang Lai and Lin Chuyi went out to do business together.

A collector whom Lin Chuyi knew earlier called and said that one of his wife's jade was broken, and he hoped that Lin Chuyi could invite Master Jiang Lai to help restore it. Lin Chuyi and Jiang Lai did the company's business together, which was hyped up by the media. Therefore, when Lin Chuyi's network of contacts before wanted to ask Jiang to help, he would contact Lin Chuyi directly.

When they arrived at a luxury community in Jiangtan, a staff member was already waiting at the door, directly leading Jiang Lai and Lin Chuyi into this high-rise building near the river.

This is a large flat with a river view, as Jiang Lai knows, the collectors who like antiques and cultural relics rarely live in the big flat, and prefer to choose a villa with a yard or a garden to live.

However, when Jiang Lai entered this large flat and looked at the picture of the surging river flowing in front of him, he thought that it was also a good choice to live in the big flat.

"It's been a long time since I've seen each other. You're getting prettier. A tall middle-aged man greeted him, smiled and shook hands with Lin Chuyi.

"Mr. Wang, you are too polite. You're looking younger, too. Lin Chuyi shook hands with Wang Hao and said with a smile.

"I know that the word we middle-aged and elderly men like to hear is 'young', so you can pay attention to my compliments, right?" Wang Hao said with a smile.

Lin Chuyi introduced Jiang Lai next to him and said, "This is ......"

"Master Jiang Lai. Wang Hao took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said happily: "I have admired Master Jiang Lai for a long time, and I know everything about the two of you...... Master Jiang Lai, there is a question that has been held in my heart. I just want to ask, did you get a successful proposal?"

"Nope. Jiang Lai shook hands with Wang Hao and said, "She doesn't agree." ”

"That's what's wrong with the first year of junior high school. A young man like Master Jiang Lai, who wants to be talented and good-looking, and who has always been in love with you, has asked for marriage dozens of times, what is it about you that makes you dissatisfied? Why don't you agree?"

"I'm afraid that if I say yes, he won't be so enthusiastic about me. Lin Chuyi said teasingly.

"Hatsuichi is right. A middle-aged woman with graceful manners and extremely good-looking eyebrows and eyes walked out of the room and said, "Man, it is the same before marriage and the same after marriage. A woman is a princess before marriage and a nanny after marriage. Therefore, we women have to test them well before marriage and be princesses for a while longer....... lest they marry into the door in the future, they can only serve them tea and water as a nanny. ”

"No, it won't. Jiang said, "If I need a nanny, just pay for one." But I like a princess, so I can only find a way to marry her home. ”

Wang Hao laughed and said, "What the master said is right, he hit the nail on the head. Women complain about this and that all day long, but they don't want to think about it, a man marries a woman because of love, who would marry her because the other party is like an old mother?"

The woman also smiled and said, "Afternoon tea is ready, let's talk while drinking, shall we?"

In the living room with a view of the river, several tables are already filled with fruits, pastries and black tea.

The middle-aged woman invited everyone to sit down, looked at Jiang Lai and Lin Chuyi and said, "Come, try how the tea I brew tastes." ”

Jiang Lai and Lin Chu took a sip of tea, and Lin Chu praised it and said, "This tea is awesome, it's delicious." ”

"Master Jiang, are you still used to drinking?"

"Get used to drinking. Jiang said, "I also drink tea a lot at home. ”

"Oh, how does that taste compared to your tea at home?"

"The taste is average. Jiang said.

“.......”

I am most afraid of the sudden silence of the atmosphere.

Wang Hao and his wife looked at Jiang Lai with wide eyes, thinking to themselves, how can you talk like this when we are so attentive to hospitality? It's too rude, right?

Even if it's really unpleasant, your perfunctory "compliment" is much better than saying that this kind of person is embarrassing, right?

What's more, this is a top-notch black tea, which is not difficult to drink at all.

Lin Chuyi stabbed Jiang Lai in the arm, desperately trying to turn the situation around, and said, "Jiang Lai may want to say ...... The tea at home tastes average. Isn't it, Jiang Lai?"

"It's not. Jiang Lai shook his head and said, "I mean this tea tastes average." ”

“.......”

Lin Chuyi wanted to cry.

At this moment, even if the Buddha and the Jade Emperor come down, they can't be saved.

At this moment, she was a little sympathetic to Shi Dao. In the past, when the two of them cooperated, did they have to deal with such "emergencies" frequently?

It's a pity that their "first" cooperation was so unsuccessful?

The middle-aged beautiful woman forcibly suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, looked at Jiang Lai and asked, "Mr. Jiang thinks this tea is not good? It seems that Mr. Jiang is a tea ceremony expert, and it just so happens that I can also learn from you." ”

Jiang Lai picked up the teacup in front of him, carefully examined the color of the soup inside, and said, "This is a golden tip from Sri Lanka, each pot costs five hundred pounds, and it is known as the most expensive black tea in the world." ”

The tears of the middle-aged beauty are about to flow out.

She had used the tea to entertain distinguished guests before, but most of the guests only complimented it on its deliciousness, but no one knew where it came from or why it was delicious.

Obviously, this Jiang Lai does understand tea.

But since you know that I have invited you to drink the best of tea, why do you ..... Say that hurtful thing, huh?

This is not a violation of the law...... No, is it a deliberate depreciation of tea because you know tea?

Which host spends so much money and is willing to hear such unpleasant words?

"Yes, this is indeed a golden millimeter from Sri Lanka, which is a good tea for the British royal family. Mr. Jiang has good eyesight. The middle-aged beauty said aloud.

"This top-quality tea is hand-picked by skilled tea pickers at sunrise and left to dry on velvet until the tip turns from silver to gold. In other words, each leaf of this tea is carefully selected. At the very least, most of the tea leaves are selected tea tips. Jiang Lai opened the lid of the pot and said, "Look at this brewed tea leaves, the leaves are large and small, and they are extremely uneven. In other words, one-third of the tea leaves are not hairy. ”

Jiang Lai pointed to the tea soup in front of him again and said, "The soup color of this tea is orange-red, the soup base is pure, and there are no impurities....... But if you look at this cup of tea, there's tiny black foam in it. This shouldn't be the case in a cup of great tea. ”

The middle-aged beautiful woman looked at Jiang Lai with wide eyes and said, "What does Master Jiang mean?"

"This tea...... It is indeed a golden tip from Sri Lanka, but it is blended with one-third of the secondary tea. As a result, it still retains the sharp taste of Sri Lankan gold, but with some imperfections that are hard to ignore. Jiang Lai said with a serious face.

"How does Master Jiang know so much about this tea?"

"I have it at home. Jiang Lai said loudly: "The British royal family has sent some to Shi Daochen. ”

“.......”

Once again, the atmosphere was quiet.

Wang Hao laughed, looked at the middle-aged beauty and said, "I'll just say, don't be deceived by those foreign devils." Where will they be willing to give us the real good things to enjoy....... You spent so much money to buy something back, and it turned out to be adulterated. Look at it, Master Jiang saw through it at a glance, right?"

"It's so hateful. I thought I was a regular customer and they wouldn't give me fake things. I didn't expect them to mix inferior products into it...... "The middle-aged beautiful woman was angry and said, "I will never buy anything from them in the future." ”

"There is also a very good black tea in the country. Jiang Lai said loudly: "If you like it, I can recommend a few to you." ”

"Great. Thank you, Master Jiang. The middle-aged beauty called Jiang Lai "master" again, and when she was dissatisfied with him just now, she directly called him "sir".

"Master Jiang Lai not only understands treasure appreciation and restoration, but also understands tea...... Is there anything that Teacher Jiang Lai doesn't understand?" Wang Hao knew how to socialize very well, and complimented Jiang Lai loudly.

"I don't know how to get Lin Chuyi to accept my marriage proposal. Jiang said.

“......”

Wang Hao was shocked.

I thought to myself, my little bit of sycophant kung fu was like an axe in front of Jiang Lai, and he was vulnerable.

Being so "praised" in front of outsiders, Lin Chuyi's heart was sweet, and even his smile was extraordinarily bright, he looked at Wang Hao and his wife and said, "Mr. Wang, Ms. Zhao, I don't know what device you want Jiang to help repair?"

"Oh, it's a bracelet. The middle-aged beauty said aloud.

As she spoke, she got up and came out of the bedroom with a jewelry box.

Open the jewelry box, and inside is a jade bracelet with a whole body of turquoise and no impurities.

But the bracelet was broken into several pieces, and it was being put in the box piece by piece.
