069 bow and stern
Qiu Yan didn't answer directly, just smiled helplessly: "I don't have a choice."
Cai Yue understood what Qiu Yan meant, many things in this world are like this, there is no choice.
In fact, when she was a child, she didn't want to live like she does now, she wanted to be a teacher like her mother, she liked children, she liked to be with those lively and childish children every day, and taught them knowledge and the attitude to look at the world and her own life.
But her father died early, her mother was seriously ill, she could only change the direction of her life, in order to have the ability and strength to protect her mother, she chose to become a businessman, because in this world, although money is not everything, it can really solve many problems, such as her mother's health, such as the sense of security she needs very much.
Maybe she still has a chance to realize her original ideals in this life, but she thinks that Qiu Yan has no such opportunity for the sake of the family.
"In the future, when you have a child of your own, will you give him the right to choose?"
"I don't know." Qiu Yan's gaze turned from the sea to Caiyue beside him, and the eyes that looked at her were very profound. I can't predict what will happen to me, just as I can't predict that the little girl who spoke to me during the interview will become the woman I love so much."
Cai Yue lowered her head a little unnaturally.At the beginning, she failed to interview Yun Tian.When she went to Qiu Rui International for an interview, she was really stimulated by Qiu Yan's coldness.That's why she said such a wild word desperately.
Now that I think about it, that scene seems to have happened not long ago, and now she is no longer the fledgling little girl.
Seeing that Caiyue didn't speak, he was also a little uncomfortable, Qiu Yan turned his gaze back to the sea, and also changed another topic: "I can see that your mother likes Xiao Tian very much."
"Well, my mother's concern for Xiao Tian can't even stand me, I think even for my own son, that's it."
"Xiao Tian's relationship with your family is really indescribably wonderful.You fell in love with him without even seeing his face.Your mother also treated him as her own son when she saw him." Qiu Yan shook his head with envy and helplessness.In fact, what he was thinking in his heart was.And your mother's other daughter, your sister Lin Wanyun, also loves Xiao Tian to death.In the end, he died for him.
Cai Yue also smiled helplessly: "I'm afraid this may not be a good thing."
"What?"
"I'm afraid my mother really treats Xiao Tian as a son." Cai Yue frowned.
Qiu Yan's pupils shrank slightly, and he looked at Cai Yue: "What do you mean... Your mother doesn't like Xiao Tian as a son-in-law, but really only wants him to be a son."
Cai Yue nodded.A few days ago, when her mother was in a good mood, she had jokingly tested her mother.Mother was indeed very resistant to Xiao Tian as her son-in-law.She didn't fully understand her mother's thoughts.But because she was afraid that her mother would suspect.She didn't dare to ask more.For fear that when she asked, her mother would doubt her relationship with Xiao Tian.This made her and Xiao Tian very distressed.
The yacht has gradually sailed away from the continental shelf, surrounded by the endless sea, the two of them look far away, the magnificent scenery of the sea and sky in front of them is refreshing, they no longer think about those helpless and troublesome things, leaning on the bow of the boat and laughing.
Xiao Tian and Wu Yinqiao chatted with each other, and he first asked Wu Yinqiao about the situation of the company to be acquired.
The business scope of that enterprise does not involve any sensitive areas, and it is not necessarily a bad thing to be able to bring in foreign capital to revitalize the existing assets that have been ossified. At least it can solve the employment and survival problems of many laid-off workers.
But there are some things he still doesn't want to say too thoroughly.Just remind Wu Yinqiao how to bypass some minefields that may be encountered in the process of mergers and acquisitions.As for the rest, he can only stop and nod in moderation.He believes that with Wu Yinqiao's cleverness, she will understand.
After talking about work for a while, Wu Yinqiao unequivocally mentioned the issue she was most concerned about: "Xiao Dong, as far as I know, you and Qiu Yan used to have an antagonistic relationship."
Xiao Tian smiled.This Wu beauty began to knock on the side.It seems that if she didn't know the relationship between them today, she wouldn't give up.
"Relationships between people can change at any time." Xiao Tian still answered plausibly, and it was impossible to grasp the real answer.
Wu Yinqiao glanced at Xiao Tian with a smile, this is really a cunning and charming man.
"Before I came to China, many of my friends taught me a lot of lessons, and they reminded me that China is a wonderful country, and here, the relationship between people is very delicate, for example, the secretary is an assistant, and Xiaomi is also an assistant, but the meaning of secretary and Xiaomi is the same but different.
The corners of Xiao Tian's mouth crooked and smiled: "Miss Wu, we Chinese have always paid attention to some things that can only be understood and cannot be spoken. It means that there are some things that you can only experience and understand with your own heart. It is said that it is not clear. For example, the relationship between men and women. Some words do not need to be spoken. The parties can understand it themselves. If Miss Wu, you have to ask me to teach you a lesson, then I can only explain it like this. There is a secretary on our yacht now, but there is no Xiaomi. Miss Wu, are you satisfied with my explanation."
Wu Yinqiao's face changed.Her mother was born in a big Chinese family.She is not completely unfamiliar and ignorant of some of the Chinese's ways of thinking.
Xiao Tian's words were very polite to remind her, although Qiu Yan didn't say anything, but today he invited him and Cai Yue, which was to indirectly tell her that it was impossible between her and him.
"Thank you Dong Xiao for such a wonderful explanation." Wu Yinqiao quickly put away the discoloration on his face and thanked him very elegantly.
"Miss Wu doesn't have to be polite." Xiao Tian glanced at Wu Yinqiao, knowing that his reminder to her might not work.
It's no wonder, how can she give up a man like Qiu Yan with a few reminders, and think that she can successfully fight in the business sea surrounded by sharks on Wall Street and get to such a high position today.
"Xiao Dong, the weather is so good today, looking at such a pool of clear water really makes me a little itchy, why don't we ask Qiu Yan and Miss Zhou to come over and swim together.
"I'm not very interested in swimming, but I'd be happy to help you get Qiu Yan over." Saying that, Xiao Tian really stood up and walked towards the bow of the boat.
Wu Yinqiao got off the deck from the aft hatch and went to the locker room to change into a swimsuit.
Walking to the bow of the boat, Xiao Tian saw that Cai Yue and Qiu Yan were both leaning on the railing with their elbows, leaning very close and laughing intimately.
"What are you talking about?" He walked up to Caiyue's side and gently hugged her waist, this was the first time he made the largest intimate gesture to Caiyue in front of Qiu Yan.
Qiu Yan's eyes glanced at Xiao Tian's hand on Caiyue's waist without a trace, and his face changed slightly.
Cai Yue was obviously a little surprised by Xiao Tian's action, she turned towards Xiao Tian, and broke away from his light hug without a trace, because she really didn't want to provoke Xiao Tian so much in front of Qiu Yan.
"Qiu Yanzheng told me about his first time learning to swim."
The smile on Cai Yue's face was still rippling, but Xiao Tian felt very uncomfortable, not only because of Cai Yue's deliberate alienation of small actions, but also because he witnessed the intimacy and naturalness of Cai Yue and Qiu Yan when they got along together.
He must admit that he minds Caiyue and Qiu Yan being alone.Qiu Yan and Caiyue do spend a lot more time together than him.The two of them don't even hide their privacy from each other.This familiarity and natural intimacy between them makes him very uncomfortable and tasteful.
But this is already a fait accompli.He can't change it.The most precious two years he and Caiyue missed can't be recovered.He can only try his best to cultivate his relationship with Caiyue as soon as possible in the days to come.
"What a coincidence, Miss Wu said she really wanted to swim, let me come over and call you two over, she should be changing into a swimsuit right now." Xiao Tian's words were mainly said to Qiu Yan.
Qiu Yan frowned slightly.Wu Yinqiao suddenly proposed last night that he wanted to feel the sunrise and sunset on the sea in Qiaodong.Pestered him to ask him to take her out to sea on a yacht.He had already thought that there would be such a thing.Forget it.If you come, you will be safe.
"Let's go over then."
The three of them went to the stern together.
Wu Yinqiao has really changed her clothes, a standard beach bikini, and a mixed-race beauty's blood-spurting body is really beautiful and violent.
"Qiu Yan, how long has it been since we've been swimming together?" Seeing Qiu Yan, Wu Yinqiao naturally walked towards him.
Qiu Yan was slightly embarrassed, and his previous relationship with Wu Yinqiao was indeed a little unclear.
Wu Yinqiao returned to China this time and said that it was because of the merger and acquisition case, but such a case did not need her partner of a big law firm to come forward in person. Qiu Yan knew that she was coming more for him. The current situation was that Cai Yue was likely to resolutely not go into the water. Xiao Tian was likely to accompany Cai Yue to watch from the shore, and he was the host.
Xiao Tian looked at Wu Yinqiao's bikini image on the side, and praised it in his heart.
