Shen Xiaoman looked back at Guo Yang and Zhou Bing, his face was slightly gloomy: "Guo Dong, this matter is extraordinary, there must be a big conspiracy behind it." ”

Guo Yang nodded: "These big suppliers are collectively out of stock, they chose to attack us at this time, and they also joined forces at all costs, indicating that there must be someone behind the control." Senior Sister Shen, the top priority is to find out the cause as soon as possible and find out the people behind the evil!"

Shen Xiaoman snorted: "Dong Guo, don't worry, we won't sit still!"

Guo Yang smiled: "Senior Sister Shen, don't get too angry, you should be adaptable, but don't mess up." Speaking of which, this is not outrageous, our supermarket is developing so well and so quickly, it will inevitably cause some people to be jealous. No matter how calm the business is, it is smooth, and it is normal to have twists and turns and obstacles!"

Zhou Bing interjected on the side: "Yangyang, do you need to use some special means?"

Guo Yang fell silent.

He knew that Zhou Bing was talking about a special method of using the upper level of public power to infiltrate through different government departments. Because two of these large suppliers are state-owned enterprises, such as Sanli Material Company, which is a subsidiary of the Materials Bureau, if they exert pressure from their higher authorities, they may be able to solve some of the problems.

But will the question be that simple? Guo Yang doesn't hold out much hope.

Shen Xiaoman took a deep breath: "Guo Dong, maybe you can try the method that Mr. Zhou said!"

Guo Yang pondered for a while: "You can try, Senior Sister Shen, don't you have a classmate who works in the municipal party committee office?

Shen Xiaoman nodded, and immediately took out his mobile phone to make calls.

Guo Yang got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the deserted street scene by the reflection of the moonlight and snowlight outside the window, and his heart was filled with a growing chill.

Whether he wants to admit it or not, this is a cold current and a countercurrent, and if it is not handled properly, the big business platform that has just started will die halfway. The booming Ai Bing shopping is like a flash in the pan, and it will not take long to dissipate from the memory of the world.

His mind flashed, and he thought about what to do.

Zhou Bing sat there silently drinking a cup of tea that had long since lost its taste, she knew that Guo Yang and Shen Xiaoman were facing a crisis, and the stakes were very high, and she couldn't easily open her mouth to interfere with their train of thought.

Shen Xiaoman came back after calling, and from the change in her expression, Guo Yang knew the result without asking.

……

Speechless all night. But for Guo Yang and Shen Xiaoman, this night was an extremely torturous night, tossing and turning and difficult to sleep.

Guo Yang turned on the lamp, grabbed his mobile phone and looked at the time, and saw that it was two o'clock in the morning.

He wanted Shen Xiaoman to make a phone call to ask her about the results of continuing to communicate with her classmates working in the municipal party committee office in the evening, but he remembered that the current time was really inconvenient, so he gave up.

When I called Shen Xiaoman at two o'clock in the morning, I couldn't say anything.

Guo Yang got up and lit a cigarette, walked to the bedroom window and opened the window, letting the cold wind blow in, but he didn't feel the slightest cold.

In fact, Shen Xiaoman, who lives in a three-bedroom apartment in another community not far away, is also in a state of anxiety and insomnia. Now Ai Bing Group is the whole of her career, she has put almost all her energy and hope into this platform, once it fails, her career will inevitably suffer a heavy blow.

Shen Xiaoman also grabbed his mobile phone and looked at the time, and also had the heart to call Guo Yang, but he felt that it was too inappropriate to call in the middle of the night, so he endured it and put it down.

But after a while, the mobile phone suddenly rang, Shen Xiaoman was stunned, glanced at it, and saw that it was Guo Yang's number, and immediately grabbed it and said, "Guo Dong, I'm Shen Xiaoman!"

"Senior Sister Shen, haven't you rested yet?" Guo Yang's voice was slightly apologetic.

It's rude to call in the middle of the night, especially if it's a woman.

But the stakes are very high, it is related to the life and death of Ai Bing's shopping, Guo Yang has some things, some ideas, and some ideas that he wants to communicate with Shen Xiaoman immediately, so he still decided to make this call temporarily.

Shen Xiaoman sighed lightly: "I can't sleep, Guo Dong, why don't we meet and talk?" I think there are some things that must be determined as soon as possible, otherwise we will be beaten passively!"

Guo Yang hesitated for a moment, it was the middle of the night, and it was not appropriate to choose a place outside, could it be that he wanted to go to Shen Xiaoman's residence?

It was Shen Xiaoman who took the initiative to say: "Come to me, you drive over, I'll wait for you!"

Guo Yang got dressed, put on his black leather coat, and tiptoed out of the door, without alerting his sleeping mother Xie Yuzhi.

Although Guo Yang repeatedly advised his mother to give up her job and live in peace, Xie Yuzhi was a person who had worked hard all her life and could not be idle, so she refused to resign and continued to be her Chinese teacher in No. 2 Middle School. Because of her son's successful career, Xie Yuzhi felt that she could put more energy into her students, and recently took the initiative to ask the school to be a class teacher.

Her son is already wealthy, but for Xie Yuzhi, her life is not much different from the past. She is still as simple and hardworking as ever, she doesn't wear the gorgeous clothes and jewelry that her son and Zhou Bing bought for her, she locks them in the cabinet, and the simple and unpretentious Teacher Xie appears in front of the world.

She is an inconspicuous Chinese teacher in No. 2 Middle School. From start to finish, nothing has changed.

Mother insisted on this, Guo Yang could only respect her choice.

Guo Yang drove the car and arrived at the bottom of Shen Xiaoman's residence in less than ten minutes. He went upstairs softly and knocked on the door.

The door was quickly opened, and Shen Xiaoman was wearing red pajamas, his hair was wet, and he had obviously just taken a shower. However, she had just taken a shower and had not had time to change her clothes when Guo Yang came.

Guo Yang apologized: "Senior Sister Shen, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to disturb your rest!"

Shen Xiaoman chuckled: "Come in, what's not to disturb, I haven't slept much anyway, I've been thinking about the supermarket out of stock, you are just right, let's discuss, we must come up with a proper countermeasure, otherwise we will be ugly in a few days!"

Guo Yang nodded and walked in.

Guo Yang sat on the sofa in the living room, and Shen Xiaoman brought a cup of hot coffee: "I can't sleep anyway, so I might as well have a cup of coffee." ”

Shen Xiaoman sat opposite Guo Yang as she spoke, she naturally brushed her long wet hair with her hand, and at the moment when she raised her wrist to pull her hair, the neckline of her pajamas turned back slightly, revealing a cyan tattoo on her inner shoulder blade.

Guo Yang inadvertently caught a glimpse, but his heart moved.

People are like this, the floodgates of memory are often triggered by something in an instant. This looming tattoo pattern was like a lightning bolt crossing Guo Yang's mental world, and the memory fragment that he had blocked suddenly activated.

After Zhou Bing's death in his previous life, Guo Yang did not get rid of his pain for many years and was alone. It wasn't until he met alumnus Shen Xiaoman at a meeting in Beijing that the two came into contact several times and rubbed some sparks. But because Zhou Bing's position in Guo Yang's heart is unbreakable, no one can replace her. It seems that because of realizing this, Shen Xiaoman took the initiative to break up after dating Guo Yang for half a year, and the two died without a problem.

Therefore, strictly speaking, Shen Xiaoman is still Guo Yang's ex-girlfriend in his previous life.

Guo Yang's understanding of Shen Xiaoman is based on this.

Guo Yang's trust in Shen Xiaoman is also based on this.

He knew what kind of woman Shen Xiaoman was and what kind of abilities she had.

The dust is like smoke.

Guo Yang knew that Shen Xiaoman had a delicate little phoenix tattooed on his back from his shoulder blades, and it was the head of the phoenix that was exposed deep in his shoulder blades.

Realizing that Guo Yang's deep and penetrating gaze was staring at his shoulder socket, Shen Xiaoman was stunned, and immediately turned red, and quickly straightened the neckline of his pajamas, embarrassed to explain casually: "The year I graduated from undergraduate, my best friend asked me to get a small tattoo, and I got a tattoo on impulse, and then I regretted it, it was not very elegant, and I didn't dare to wear too revealing clothes in summer!"

Shen Xiaoman did feel embarrassed.

Because in this day and age, there are generally no good people with tattoos on their bodies, and they are more alternative. She was pulled by her best friend to get a small tattoo, she just thought it was fun, but she did like it, anyway, she felt that she couldn't expose it when she usually dressed, so it didn't matter.

Shen Xiaoman casually explained two sentences, completely subconsciously.

And Guo Yang's reaction was also subconscious, he was still slightly immersed in the memories of the past, and the bits and pieces of his previous life with Shen Xiaoman rolled out in this moment, and it took time to digest, so his words also blurted out: "It's okay, this little phoenix is very good, anyway, you like it, it doesn't matter!"

As soon as Guo Yang's words came out, he knew that something was wrong. But how can the water that was spilled out of the words be collected at this moment?

Shen Xiaoman's face changed suddenly, she immediately wrapped her pajamas tightly and looked at Guo Yang coldly and said, "Guo Yang, what do you mean? How do you know that my tattoo is a phoenix?"

This tattoo is Shen Xiaoman's absolute privacy.

The only person who knows is her best friend Xiao Fan.

Even her ex-boyfriend, who had just broken up, didn't know because the intimacy between the two was limited to kissing.

And Shen Xiaoman is a career-oriented and learning-oriented strong woman, she studied for graduate school after graduating from college, and became a workaholic after graduating from graduate school, and she had no time to take care of her personal feelings, so she talked about this boyfriend.

But how does Guo Yang know?

Shen Xiaoman was not only shocked, but also suspicious and angry.

Guo Yang's face was ugly, he rubbed his hands, and he didn't know what to say for a while. He couldn't explain it at all, he couldn't say that he had been in love with her and had an intimate relationship in his previous life, how could he not discover the little secret behind her back?

Shen Xiaoman Huo Ran got up and said angrily: "Guo Yang, I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation! Otherwise, ......"

Shen Xiaoman's breathing became rapid.

Guo Yang sat or stood awkwardly, and his heart was in turmoil.

He came to Shen Xiaoman in the middle of the night to discuss how to face and survive the out-of-stock crisis, but it turned out to be this situation. He knew that judging by Shen Xiaoman's character, if he couldn't give her an explanation that she could accept, at least the cooperation between the two would end there.
