Although Cao Ying wore makeup tonight, she couldn't hide her tired state.

The two have known each other for a long time, and there is always an inexplicable relationship and affection between them.

When he saw her, Tang Xiaobao was actually a little distressed.

In the past, Cao Ying was just the eldest lady of the Cao family, and she was also the most favored princess, but now she is more mature and has a deeper city.

It looks like she's grown up.

But this kind of growth makes people who really know her feel distressed.

People can't refuse to grow, but the cost of growth can sometimes be great.

It often means the betrayal of those closest to you.

Tang Xiaobao handed the menu to Cao Ying and said with a smile: "You can order." ”

"Good. ”

Cao Ying took the menu, marked a few dishes, and handed them to the waiter.

Then Tang Xiaobao poured a cup of tea for her.

She took a sip lightly, then looked elsewhere, not looking at Tang Xiaobao.

The atmosphere in the box was a bit dreary.

After a while, the dishes are ready.

Tang Xiaobao was stunned.

These dishes are his favorite food.

He was slightly moved in his heart and said, "Do you want to drink some wine?"

"Okay, white. ”

"White, can you do it?" Tang Xiaobao smiled.

"Okay. ”

"Okay. ”

ordered a bottle of Moutai, Tang Xiaobao poured her a cup, and the cup could hold two taels.

"You drink this one, and the rest is mine. Tang Xiaobao said.

"No, invite me to dinner and just pick the door like this?

Tang Xiaobao snorted: "I'm addicted to alcohol, I can't always cheapen you, I spend money on treats, I can't treat myself badly, right?"

Then the two looked at each other and smiled.

I know all too well.

There is an atmosphere called warmth, which spreads at this time.

The two ate and drank, and after a while, Tang Xiaobao finally couldn't help it and asked, "How are you doing lately?"

"That's good. ”

"Really?"

"Really. ”

Tang Xiaobao put down his chopsticks, poured himself a glass fiercely, burped, stared at Cao Ying opposite, and said, "Why are you so troubled?"

"I don't know what you mean, what's wrong with you tonight?" Cao Ying looked at Tang Xiaobao with an expression of incomprehension.

Tang Xiaobao sighed: "I heard everything about you, Li Bai said, I went to the company this morning." ”

In an instant, Cao Ying's face changed and became a little gloomy, but she quickly returned to her original calm appearance, and even laughed and said, "Do you think my current situation is very difficult?"

Tang Xiaobao said: "Between us, do we need to hide it like this? ”

"And then?"

"I discussed with Li Bai and transferred the two pieces of land you gave us last time to you at the original price. Tang Xiaobao said very seriously.

Cao Ying's smile did not change, and her expression did not change at all, as if all this had been expected by her.

"Aren't you going to be in trouble too, everyone's life is not easy, hold on, maybe it's over. ”

Tang Xiaobao couldn't cry or laugh: "Between us, I really don't like to tell lies, let's put it this way, Shenlong Real Estate is gone, Shenlong Group is still there, but if your company collapses, what else do you have? Cao's Group, is it still yours? Your plan will also be lost." ”

Cao Ying's smile froze on her face, she took a sip of wine gently, and quickly stuffed two mouthfuls of food into her mouth, this wine was too strong.

Putting down the chopsticks, her expression became much more serious, and she said, "This morning, Xiao Jian came to look for me." ”

Tang Xiaobao's face changed.

"He's looking for you, first a stick and then a carrot?"

Cao Ying was noncommittal: "He wants to buy the shares in my hand, Cao's Real Estate, I personally hold 65% of the shares, that is to say, I am the absolute majority shareholder, it is not too much to say that it is my private property, the conditions he gave are very tempting, he will give me back the land that was robbed of me at 10% lower than the original price, and in addition, he is willing to buy 30% of the shares in my hand at a premium." ”

Tang Xiaobao said in a deep voice: "He wants to take control of you." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, my uncle must have reached some kind of tacit understanding with him. Cao Ying sighed: "The so-called family affection is sometimes so chilling. ”

Tang Xiaobao asked curiously, "Did you promise him?"

"Guess. ”

Naturally, there was no promise. ”

"You're so sure, why?" Cao Ying smiled.

Tang Xiaobao said: "Because I know you, the relationship between us is not something that others can pick apart, we are best friends, aren't we?"

"Best friend?"

Cao Ying was still laughing, but in fact, she felt a little bitter in her heart.

Just friends?

Well, she is still very pleased, at least Tang Xiaobao's trust in her touched her very much.

"Isn't it?" asked Tang Xiaobao.

"Yes. Cao Ying nodded.

"So, I want to help you. Tang Xiaobao's head leaned forward, just in time to see Cao Ying's neckline, which was snow-white, of course, there was no spring light leaking.

It's just that Tang Xiaobao is still a little distracted.

When he and Cao Ying met, they hadn't met a few confidantes, even Luo Ya, they hadn't confirmed the relationship, and they didn't have much hope, Cao Ying at that time left a deep impression in his heart.

After so long, that feeling still lingers.

Nothing has changed.

It's like everything has changed.

The old man is still the same.

But what is the right thing?

"Thank you. Cao Ying's eyes were a little evasive: "Things are not bad enough to get to that point, you don't have to help me, besides, this is also the practice of killing chickens and taking eggs, maybe this will only make both of us suffer huge trauma, sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing to unite, and blocking separately can also disperse firepower." ”

Tang Xiaobao sneered: "It's like a war...... Are you really okay?"

"Don't worry, I haven't played all my hole cards yet. Cao Ying suddenly said, "You really want to help me?"

Tang Xiaobao nodded again and again.

"Okay, you lend me a sum of money, don't ask for interest, I'm short on cash, I need a sum of money to work around, and next, I will make a big move. Cao Ying said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Tang Xiaobao immediately asked, "How much?"

"How much? a billion is there?" Cao Ying asked.

Tang Xiaobao frowned and didn't speak for a long time.

Cao Ying's heart sank, and a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

She didn't really want to borrow money, it was just a joke, but Tang Xiaobao was hesitating, which made her a little disappointed.

"Forget it, forget it. Cao Ying said lightly: "You have such a big stall now, and the demand for funds is also very large, one billion, it is indeed too much, when I didn't say it." ”

But Tang Xiaobao didn't seem to hear it, he said, "You wait for me to make a call." ”

With that, he went straight out.

Cao Ying sighed, took the wine from Tang Xiaobao's side, poured herself a glass, and then drank it in one gulp.

This wine is not low, it is this glass, it actually made her a little dizzy, and her face turned red.
