Chapter 4: Heart-to-Heart Conversation in the Teahouse
"What's wrong? I don't know you?" Seeing Lin Qiang's fixed gaze on her, Qin Xiaohua said angrily, and put a cup of tea in front of Lin Qiang with small tweezers.
Lin Qiang picked up the tea and took a sip, only to realize that there was no tea lady to help make tea, and remembered that she made tea with Qin Xiaohua many years ago, "Sister Hua, you haven't changed at all." ā
"I'm almost forty years old, and I still say that it hasn't changed? Qin Xiaohua stared at the handsome man in front of her who she hadn't seen for many years. Women are afraid of the corrosion of time, but men need to be modified by age, and the tempering of the years is really the catalyst for men's growth.
"If the young girl is a rose, then Sister Hua is the tulip at noon, without the dazzling of roses, but there is no lack of fragrance, and the fragrance is secretly sent. Facing Qin Xiaohua, Lin Qiang regained his youthful talent.
The beautiful woman in front of her, restrained and charming, smiled slightly in the understatement, that gentleness and calmness, which a young girl can never learn. Although there is no longer a young girl's pure water, and even there are almost invisible shallow wrinkles between the corners of her eyebrows, Gu Panjian is more charming, that kind of maturity, charm and elegance, which makes her seem to bypass age, or age has spared her.
"You're ridiculing me again, don't you Cantonese people have a saying, 'women are forty tofu scum'?" Qin Xiaohua sighed deliberately, and helped Lin Qiang hand over a cup of tea. Many years ago, Lin Qiang used tea to describe a woman, and described her as Longjing tea, which is still fresh in his memory.
"I'm telling the truth. Lin Qiang met Qin Xiaohua's gentle gaze and said heartily: "Actually, a woman of your age is really at the peak of the most beautiful woman's life. It is not as lingering as a rose, which makes people crazy and indulged in it but is often easy to lose itself, nor is it as pure and unhappy as a lotus, which makes people love and pity but cannot withstand the interference of the world. Not glamorous, not public, but has just the right mature demeanor. Every move shows the endless charm and warm light. When Lin Qiang spoke, he stared at Qin Xiaohua boldly, his eyes full of appreciation.
Qin Xiaohua was stared at by Lin Qiang's face was slightly hot, the talented man in front of him had brought him great physical and mental pleasure many years ago, but he disappeared without a trace in her life like a mystery, and when he was about to ask, there was a gentle knock on the door, Lin Qiang turned around, and saw a graceful woman in professional clothes coming in, Lin Qiang felt very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it all of a sudden.
"Sister Hua, it's been a long time since you arrived. This is ----??Lin Qiang, is it you??" The woman exclaimed.
"Xiaoyan?" Lin Qiang also recognized her. At that time, she was still a little girl in her senior year, beautiful and lively, and she once pestered Lin Qiang to teach her to dance and play table tennis.
"It's rare that you still remember me. Xiao Yan sat down at the tea table, "Why have you disappeared all these years?" Sister Hua said that she couldn't get through to you after she came back from Beijing. ā
Lin Qiang remembered the most difficult period of his life, and he still sighed in his heart, he remembered that when he was hit hard by the business world, Qin Xiaohua was returning to Beijing to give birth. At the most difficult moment, Lin Qiang did not have the idea of calling her for help, but finally gave up this idea. Seeing Qin Xiaohua's inquiring eyes, Lin Qiang told them about his experience over the years.
Qin Xiaohua and Xiaoyan didn't expect Lin Qiang to experience such a tragic lesson in business, and they were not only heartbroken for the blow he received at that time, but also glad that he could get back up. Qin Xiaohua was even thinking that if Lin Qiang really asked for help at that time, although she might not be able to help him save the building at that time, she would definitely do her best to help, at least she would not watch him go bankrupt and then endure the ordeal of survival.
She glanced at Lin Qiang and whispered faintly: "If you don't tell us when something so big happens, you really don't treat us as friends?"
"No, you were still in Beijing at the time, and IāI don't want to bother you. Lin Qiang said.
"I was still at the World Trade Center at the time, and you didn't come to look for me?" Xiao Yan blamed.
"Thank you, Xiaohiko. At that time, I was really stunned, my thinking was confused, and I would only rush blindly and rush to turn over. Lin Qiang smiled at Xiao Yan. Although he knew that Xiaoyan was a rich second generation at that time, after all, he was just an ordinary friend with her, and he was not to the extent that he could open his mouth to ask for help, and in front of them, Lin Qiang still had a strong sense of self-esteem at that time, so he naturally would not easily complain to them.
"Your child should be in elementary school, right?" Qin Xiaohua didn't want to dwell on these painful past events that made Lin Qiang painful, so she changed the topic.
"Yes, it's the second grade, Sister Hua, your child should be about the same age as mine, and it should be in the second grade, right?" Lin Qiang said and took out his mobile phone and told them that the cute little girl on the screensaver was his daughter. Qin Xiaohua also happened to use her son's photo as a screensaver for her private mobile phone, so she also took it out.
Xiao Yan looked at the cute children in the two mobile phones and said with a smile: "It seems that the two of you can consider the in-laws." ā
Qin Xiaohua glanced at her, "Why don't you hurry up and bring you a little brother or little sister." ā
Xiao Yan slapped Qin Xiaohua shyly, and her pretty face flushed.
"Sister Hua, how did you become the chairman of Huaguang Group?" Lin Qiang asked.
Qin Xiaohua glanced at Lin Qiang and concisely told him about her experience over the years.
It turned out that Qin Xiaohua has been staying in the capital since she returned to Beijing to give birth, her husband Qian Xiaogang made a lot of money in real estate in Zhuhai, and after the birth of his son, Qian Xiaogang was overjoyed and often flew back to Beijing to visit Qin Xiaohua's mother and son. When his mother saw her lovely little grandson, she gradually recovered from the grief of losing her husband, and the family enjoyed the joy of family.
Qin Xiaohua originally planned to take her son back to Guangzhou after maternity leave, but her grandmother was reluctant to let go of her grandson, and it happened that Qian Xiaogang and his former childhood friends in the same compound were setting up Beijing Dongling Industrial Company. The goal of Dongling Industrial is to participate in the restructuring of state-owned enterprises, and those partners have their own excellent relationships, but they lack experience in enterprise management, and those people not only do not have the patience to do business, but also do not want to show their heads too much, so they let Qin Xiaohua become the chairman of the board of directors and be fully responsible for the operation of the company. The company is headquartered in Beijing, and Qin Xiaohua can take care of her son, so she readily agreed.
With a strong network, through the operation, Dongling company participated in the restructuring of a number of state-owned enterprises, the strength of the geometric growth, at the beginning of last year a large amount of shares in Huaguang Group, became the controlling shareholder, Qin Xiaohua is directly parachuted from Beijing, as the vice chairman of the group with real power.
When Lin Qiang was amazed by the great powers of these second-generation officials, he also keenly sniffed out his own opportunities. He is not the kind of reckless person, he is not in a hurry, he knows that the god of fate has made him intersect with Qin Xiaohua again, and many things will become clear immediately.
He looked at the time, and before he knew it, it was almost twelve o'clock, and he would have to go to the construction site of Yamato Villa in the northern suburbs of the city early tomorrow morning. Cao Xu called at dinner and said that the board of directors of the villa had signed the document in the afternoon, and the Guangzhou Sunrise Decoration Company under his name officially became the general contractor of the decoration project of Yamato Villa, and Guangzhou Gaoqiao Chaopai Colored Sculpture Co., Ltd. under the name of Lin Qiang was the only supplier of the high-end colored carving background wall, so that Lin Qiang would come to the villa on time at ten o'clock tomorrow morning to sign the supply contract.
"It's nice to meet again, and I'll find time to treat you to dinner another day. It's not early, I'll find the waiter to pay the bill first, and then send Sister Hua back. ā
"Pay the bill??" Xiao Yan glanced at Qin Xiaohua in a little surprise and said.
Lin Qiang was stunned when he saw Qin Xiaohua smiling at him, only to find that Xiao Yan had a small sign hanging on his chest, "You are the manager of this teahouse??"
Xiao Yan laughed, "I'm the manager here, and Sister Hua is the real boss here." Xiaoyan told Lin Qiang that they had stopped doing fashion stores in the World Trade Center before, and transferred all their investment here, and opened this tea house last year.
Lin Qiang suddenly realized, no wonder Qin Xiaohua heard that she was going to invite her here to taste tea, her tone was full of surprise, "Great, then I can often come to you for tea in the future." ā
"Welcome. Xiao Yan smiled.
Qin Xiaohua still lives in Baiyun Castle, Lin Qiang sent her to the door of the house with a familiar car, and saw her enter the gate before driving to his home.
