With Bei Lu's trouble, the atmosphere of the barbecue banquet was naturally affected.

The originally warm atmosphere immediately became much more disappointing.

After that, the agents' mood for talking and laughing and eating and drinking faded.

The barbecue lasted about half an hour, and everyone began to eat dessert and ice cream, and then it was hastily over.

As for Zhuo Qun, of course, he was even more depressed and unlucky.

From Beilu running upstairs, he had completely lost his appetite and never ate a bite again.

He was stunned for a long time towards the stairs, and then chased after him, trying to reconcile with Beilu with careful care.

It is a pity that such efforts are completely futile.

Because an emotional woman is absolutely unreasonable.

Zhuo Qun stood outside the bedroom door, spending more than an hour of emotion and foaming in vain.

Not only did she not say that Bei Lu changed her mind, but she was also slapped by Bei Lu when she opened the door.

And all this was seen by Condon with their surveillance equipment.

So when Zhuo Qun came downstairs, Condon and the agents couldn't help but smile, and looked at him with sympathy and pity, like looking at a complete stupid and unlucky person.

This made Zhuo Qun both ashamed and angry.

His frustration could not be vented, so he went to the cooler stuffed with ice cubes, took out a bottle of beer, opened it, and poured it down in one gulp.

But even so, his sense of responsibility as a husband still makes him unable to abandon Beilu.

As soon as he finished his beer, he begged Gretchen for help.

"Gretchen, I need your help urgently. My wife didn't want to say a word to me and insisted on moving to another room. Right now, she's venting hysteria upstairs, and she's probably going to make a mess of the house. I don't know if you can go upstairs and help me persuade her, at least help her settle it, okay? I'm really afraid that she will do something stupid, and maybe even hurt herself, please......"

Zhuo Qun's tone was very anxious and very open.

Probably because I am more soft-hearted as a woman, perhaps because I consider that Zhuoqun's investment advice is very important to my personal finances.

In response to Zhuo Qun's request, Gretchen only hesitated for a moment before agreeing, saying that he would go upstairs to see how Beilu was doing when he was done with things in the kitchen.

This finally made Zhuo Qun, a model husband, look better.

At this time, Condon also came to express his concern for Zhuo Qun in a timely manner.

"Hey, women are so fragile and unreasonable, few of them understand the hard work of men. It's not your fault. ”

As he spoke, he handed Zhuo Qun an extra steak burger wrapped in tin foil.

"Here, let's have something to eat. As a guest entertainer, it is very shameful to let the guests end the banquet hungry. ”

Zhuo Qun expressed his gratitude for this kindness, but shook his head.

"I can't eat it. Honestly, what I need now is not this, but ......"

He stopped talking, and Condon, like a cat that smelled a fishy smell, immediately followed suit.

"Oh, what the hell do you need?"

Seriously, in fact, from the bottom of his heart, Condon is quite happy to see Zhuo Qun and Bei Lu quarrel, and he is not afraid of the trouble that will arise from it.

Because since he had eaten the sweetness, he understood that Zhuo Qun had the best interest for him.

There is nothing in this world that comes out of nowhere.

If Zhuo Qun asks him for something for Beilu, he must exchange something more valuable in the end.

And he will never do a loss-making business.

"What I need is to relax, stop working, and take a vacation. Go to the beach, forests, grasslands, breathe fresh air, and relax like ordinary people for more than ten days. Can you arrange this for me?"

This time, Zhuo Qun opened his mouth and came up with a big problem.

Conton was overjoyed when he heard this, but he deliberately showed an embarrassed expression.

"Yes, I understand, who doesn't like a vacation? My superiors would never agree. ”

"Don't you have that permission?"

"Yes, I didn't. ”

"But I gave you so much useful news, I thought you were going to be promoted?"

"Oh, there are rumors. But it always takes time, just as your message takes time to be confirmed. And even if I get promoted...... I can't ...... either It's too risky. ”

"You don't want to help me, or are you worried about something? Haven't I been cooperating with you all the time? Don't you and your subordinates need to go on vacation? We can go together. As I am now, I am completely under your watch......"

Conton stretched out his hands helplessly.

"Listen, don't get me wrong. Personally, I understand your needs, but it's not that simple. You know, this is a waste of money and resources, and it's unnecessary...... It's a pity that I say that, but from a business point of view, I can't make this report because I have a public office......."

As Conton expected, his repeated pushes increased Zhuoqun's anger.

made it difficult for Zhuo Qun to restrain his emotions, and shouted impulsively.

"Funds, resources, don't talk to me. I have money, and if I could, I'd rather pay for a beach or a hotel and cover all the agent attendance. Okay, okay?"

"Let me be clear, I asked for a vacation not for myself, but entirely for my wife. Her mental state was almost unbearable. In such a situation, it would be harmful for her to stay any longer. ”

"If you're still worried about going wrong, then I might as well stay here. I mean, if only you provide my wife with a more comfortable and secure lifestyle. ”

"After all, I'm the one who will be useful to you. She's just a woman who never cares about the news......"

There is no doubt that Zhuo Qun's words are already the bottom line of the appeal, and Condon is no longer embarrassed.

Even Condon's agents were a little moved when they heard this, and they couldn't help but whisper in their ears.

But Condon still didn't answer.

His cold blue eyes didn't look at Zhuo Qun at all, just frowned, sighed, and knocked his hand on the table.

If nothing else, he was so coy because Zhuo Qun hadn't said the price he needed yet.

In this way, after waiting for a long time in vain, Zhuo Qun understood what Condon meant.

So he gritted his teeth and finally said what Condon wanted to hear the most.

"Condon, this is the first time I'm begging you, right? If you're willing to do me a favor, I won't make it difficult for you, maybe I'll tell you a little bit about Asia, so that you can give an account of it......

Condon was ecstatic, but still pretended to be indifferent.

"Oh, for example?"

"For example, the ...... of country T that you want to know the most"

Condon's heart moved, but he quickly shook his head.

It was what he wanted, but it wasn't good.

He didn't want to miss out on the chance to catch a really big fish.

"No, the international format is changing rapidly, and that's no longer my focus. What I want to know most right now...... Actually, it's the South China Sea. ”

"South China Sea?"

"Yes, Nanhai, if you are willing to talk about the situation, things will be easy. Of course, this is against our agreement, and I will not force you. ”

Under Conton's blazing eyes, Zhuo Qun's expression was contradictory to the extreme.

But in the end, he bit the hook.

"Well, if you can get my wife out of here completely and live a more relaxed and comfortable life in the future, I promise you. ”

Condon's brow couldn't help but twitch, and then he stretched out his hand to Zhuo Qun.

"Well, I'll try my best. I have to say, your daring for your wife is really touching, I think you are the best husband in the world and a role model for men. ”

Such a compliment sounds really embarrassing at this time.

Zhuo Qun pushed Conton's hand away and said in an angry tone.

"Okay, don't talk about it, just be proud. ”

"Don't be too happy, though. I have one more string attaché. I'm going to play a few Texas Hold'em games with you cunning guy right now and win all your money. How's that, do you have a kind?"

"Also, give me some spirits, I don't want to drink light wine like this anymore. I just want to get drunk today! That's your deposit!"

Condon couldn't help but laugh.

"Although it is against the rules of work, in view of this special day, and in view of the progress of our partnership, I am willing to make an exception today. ”

With a wave of his hand, "Ah Jin, go get bourbon and poker." And you, if anyone wants to participate, then come along!"

Alcohol and gambling are almost every man's favorite.

So with the cheers of everyone present, the gambling game began.

And Gretchen also went upstairs as he had been told.

At this time, the most interesting thing is that the smug Conton and the nervous Zhuo Qun inadvertently had the same idea in their hearts.

If a person understands human nature, then he can do anything.

Most people are stupid, and if you know how to control them, then you can manipulate them at will.

And the biggest difference between them is.

One of them thinks he's got the win.

The foreshadowing of the other is just in place, he is a drunkard, and the next step will be the moment of real action.
