Chapter Ninety-Nine
Li Ruowei's small episode did not change the joy of the birthday banquet in the slightest, and for the public, Li Ruowei's tragic experience was nothing more than an after-dinner conversation for the public.
It's hard to empathize with things you haven't experienced.
The brilliant fireworks are still blooming in the air, and the laughter is still in the ears, but for the current Li Xiang, it only feels harsh.
Li Xiang no longer had the strength and energy to go left and right, so he just sat in the empty banquet hall, looking at the colorful Luoying in the distance, as if he was stupid.
Mina had been sitting next to Li Xiang, looking at him worriedly. Seeing that he hadn't said a word, he couldn't help but take Li Xiang's hand and choked up: "You've been sitting here for most of the day, my dear, don't be like this." We haven't seen any wind and rain in so many years, haven't they all been raining and the sky is clear? There will definitely be a way to do this, don't worry! When the old man comes back, you can talk to him well. He's happy today, maybe he won't bother with you. Besides, Wei Wei is also your daughter, how can she really not miss the father-daughter relationship, it's just that she is young and has a lot of experience since she was a child, so it is inevitable that her thoughts are a little extreme. If you persuade her well, she will be fine. ”
Li Xiang smiled bitterly and said, "Can't you see it? ”
"What?" Mina looked at Li Xiang puzzled, "Who is in the same group with whom?"
"Don't you understand? Everything tonight was arranged by Huashan. Because my scandal with you has affected the stock price and reputation of Zhaoying Real Estate, Huashan used this as an excuse to let Huahe take Jiang Yongsi to the company to persuade me to resign. Huashan made me think that this was a play, and I worked hard to cooperate with him to perform, but I didn't expect that this was really a play, a scene of catching turtles in an urn. And this urn was actually arranged for him by me Li Xiang. Speaking of this, Li Xiang couldn't help but slap himself, "I was sold by him, and I'm still counting the money for him! Do you say I'm the biggest fool in the world!?"
Mina couldn't help but feel sad and anxious when she saw that Li Xiang was a little out of mind.
Mina cried, "Don't do this, my dear! ”
Li Xiang laughed, laughing and tears came out.
"My own daughter, my own daughter, betrayed me! Stabbed me in the heart! Gone, nothing! I struggled for 40 years, 40 years! Now there is nothing!"
Li Xiang laughed wildly, Mina was at a loss, and tears rained down.
"You still have me! No matter what happens, I won't leave you. ”
Li Xiang touched Mina's face and smiled helplessly: "Yes, I have nothing but you now." ”
Jiang Yongsi stood outside the banquet hall, just saw this scene, felt something, sighed, and turned to leave.
Jiang Yongsi slowly walked along the edge of a flat boat to the beach with sharp leaves, looking at the lights in the distance, feeling infinitely lonely.
"Lin Huan just posted the history of the Li family, do you want to hear it?" Qiao Younan took off his suit, draped it on Jiang Yongsi's shoulders, and said gently, "The sea breeze blows cold, it can soak into the bones, don't freeze." ”
Jiang Yongsi liked it in his heart, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of affection.
"Thank you, official, I would like to hear about it!"
Qiao Younan smiled, pulled Jiang Yongsi to sit down on the bench, and then said slowly: "Li Ruowei's mother, named Fan Ying, is the eldest daughter of the Fan family, and she is very liked by the master of the Fan family. I heard that as soon as she was born, Mr. Fan bought her a garden house in Manhattan, New York, as a congratulatory gift. When Fan Ying was 18 years old, she met Li Xiang, who was still a poor boy at Oxford. The two fell in love at first sight. However, Master Fan thought that Li was homesick and poor, and he did not agree to this marriage. Unexpectedly, Fan Ying and Li Xiang eloped. Master Fan broke off the father-daughter relationship with Fan Ying in a fit of anger, but he was so angry that he went to the hospital because of this incident. Li Xiang is also a talent, and he is not willing to be a working boy, so he started his own business. Fan Ying sold his Manhattan house in order to provide him with funds, and after Master Fan knew about it, he couldn't forgive Fan Ying, even if Fan Ying was pregnant, Master Fan didn't want to see Fan Ying. After Fan Ying became pregnant, she no longer paid attention to the specific affairs of Ying Ying, handed over all the power to Li Xiang, and concentrated on raising the fetus by herself. ”
Hearing this, Jiang Yongsi couldn't help but sigh.
Li Xiang was smart and able to judge the situation, and soon earned the first pot of gold. Just when Fan Ying felt that the happy life of the two was not far away, she suddenly discovered that Li Xiang was cheating on her with her female secretary. Fan Ying was so angry that he was born prematurely, and he almost lost his life. Later, after rescue, although she gave birth to Li Ruowei and saved her life, she fell ill. At this time, Li Xiang has become a well-known developer in Thailand, with an increase in entertainment, and all kinds of beauty stars are even more embraced, but Li Xiang did not refuse to come, so he was angry with Fan Ying. Master Fan also died because of Fan Ying's death. ”
After Qiao Younan finished speaking, Jiang Yongsi was silent for a long time before saying, "No wonder Li Ruowei hates Li Xiang so much." ”
Seeing that Jiang Yongsi was depressed, Qiao Younan couldn't help touching her hair and asked, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yongsi shook his head and sighed: "Since Zhuo Wenjun made "Baitou Yin", the story of an infatuated woman with a negative heart has been played for thousands of years, and it is still like this. Sometimes I think about it, I really feel sorry for these women. ”
Jiang Yongsi's words hit Qiao Younan's sore spot, if he said that he had affection for Jiang Yongsi, then for the other party, isn't he a person who is unlucky?
Qiao Younan held Jiang Yongsi's hand and smiled awkwardly.
Jiang Yongsi didn't expect Qiao Younan's thoughts, she looked at the carnival of everyone in the distance, and suddenly thought of something.
"I-"
"I-"
With a clear heart, Qiao Younan also thought of something and was about to speak.
When the two saw this, they couldn't help but laugh.
Jiang Yongsi smiled: "What do you want to say? ”
"You say it first, let's see if the two of us want to go together. ”
Jiang Yongsi smiled slightly, and turned to say seriously: "We think Huashan is too simple. In fact, from the time when Huahe asked Li Xiang to resign, Huashan never thought about letting Li Xiang come back. ”
Qiao Younan nodded and said, "Not bad." Not only were we deceived by Huashan, but Li Xiang was also placed by Huashan. He thought that his resignation was a play between Huashan and him, but he didn't expect that the fake play would come true, and this was Huashan's real purpose! The funny thing is that Li Xiang also actively cooperated with the performance, and it was not until the last moment that he understood what was going on. ”
Jiang Yongsi smiled bitterly: "I also played with them without knowing it." ”
"You're here, so this scene is more realistic. ”
Jiang Yongsi smiled bitterly and sighed: "Li Xiang may never have thought that Li Ruowei would be a fatal blow to his exit. I didn't know that I won the best supporting actress in the scene where Li Xiang was out. ”
Qiao Younan held Jiang Yongsi's hand tightly, and he suddenly felt a little afraid.
"Yongsi, Huashan is not simple, if you-"
"Younan, I know what you're going to say," Jiang Yongsi interrupted him with a smile, "I know you're worried about me." But if you think about it outside of my feelings, as a subordinate of Huaren Group, I don't need to know how the boss will lay out. I did what a subordinate should do, and how Huaren Group and Zhaoying Real Estate fight, in fact, has nothing to do with me. I don't break the law, I don't exceed the rules, I'm just an ordinary part-time worker, don't worry. ”
"That's what you think! Is it just because of your ability that Huashan hired you? Yongsi, let's not deceive ourselves. ”
Jiang Yongsi, who said Qiao Younan's words, lowered his head.
"I don't worry about you staying in Huaren Group. If you're by my side, I can protect you, but you're in Huaren, and I can't do it, and I don't want you to be my weakness. ”
"Younan, you have also seen the situation today, what Huashan has to deal with is not Summit Investment or Zhaoying Real Estate, he has to deal with all those who want to shake the status of the Hua family's power. You also said that the circle of finance is very small, and no matter which company I go to, I may become a competitor to Summit Investment. What should I do then? Am I going to resign again? Younan, you know it's not realistic. ”
"You can work with me. Qiao Younankyu said, "You come to the summit to invest, I can give you any position you want!"
Jiang Yongsi held Qiao Younan's hand, looked at him so gently, and didn't speak.
"You don't want others to think that you are relying on me, right?" Qiao Younan quickly understood what Jiang Yongsi meant.
Qiao Younan easily said Jiang Yongsi's thoughts, and Jiang Yongsi smiled sweetly.
"Younan, if you think about you, you will understand me. ”
Qiao Younan looked at Jiang Yongsi's eyes and instantly understood what she meant.
For so many years, his Qiao Younan's name has always been tied to Fang Qi.
Fang Qi is his teacher, his Bole, but sometimes it is also his net and taboo.
Because as long as there is a way, no matter how good and successful Qiao Younan is, everyone will look at the person behind him.
Many times, Qiao Younan felt that Fang Qi was like his own shadow, no matter where he went or hid, as long as the sun came out, it seemed that there was nothing to hide, and Fang Qi would always be like a shadow.
So when Fang Qi took a back seat and handed over the peak investment to Qiao Younan, he would attach so much importance to the case of Zhaoying Real Estate, because this was the first time he proved himself after taking the lead.
Qiao Younan was silent for a while and said in a deep voice.
"I have to send it when the arrow is ready, no matter what the subsequent development is, I will not force you. The summit has already paid so much money and time, Zhaoying Real Estate can't just forget it. What's more, this is my first hard battle since I took over Summit Investment, and I can't lose! I won't lose!"
"I believe in you. Jiang Yongsi looked at Qiao Younan's eyes deeply, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and he smiled into Qiao Younan's heart.
