Eric waved his hand and said with a serious smile: "The reason why I came to China is not only to visit my friends from college, but also to see the places where my elders once lived, whether it is a bustling big city or a simple countryside, I want to see it." ”

Since that's the case, Qiao Xihe can't drive people away anymore.

"Come, I'll help you into the car?" As they spoke, they walked over to the farm tricycle, and Eric held out his hand.

Qiao Xihe said: "I'm not the queen mother of ancient times, how can I be so squeamish?" As she spoke, she smiled very faintly, making her face, which looked even more pale in the morning light, a little angry.

Eric glanced at you, "I'm just afraid you're not cured yet." ”

"It's fine. Qiao Xihe climbed into the agricultural tricycle and found a clean place to sit.

Eric jumped up as well.

The driver was a farmer uncle in his forties, smiling very kindly, "Sit tight, I'm going to drive!"

The tricycle shook twice, then drove slowly forward.

The road into the village was a cement road at first, but it became a dirt road at the back, and no matter how careful people and cars walked by, they could not avoid raising dust.

Eric took out a disposable mask from his travel bag and handed one of them to Qiao Xihe, "Let's use it first." ”

"Thank you. Qiao Xihe put on a mask and felt much better.

Then, while there was still a signal, she sent a WeChat message to Lu Feifei, telling her that she was all right, and that she would be out for a while recently, and that there might be no signal on her mobile phone, but if it was convenient, she would definitely contact her.

Lu Feifei looked at the WeChat sent by Qiao Xihe, and was excited, but quickly calmed down and asked her to send a selfie with today's newspaper, otherwise she would definitely not be at ease.

Qiao Xihe was also afraid that his friends would delay his work because he was worried about him, so he did so.

Lu Feifei looked at her friend's somewhat pale face, and then saw the gray small county town building behind her, still worried.

"Where the hell are you going?"

"Go to the countryside and experience life. ”

"Qiao Xihe!"

Qiao Xihe lowered his eyes, watched the screen of his mobile phone gradually dim, thought about it again and again, and then re-unlocked the mobile phone and typed the next paragraph.

"Feifei, everything will be fine with me, you don't have to worry, it's better like this, as long as I can, I will send you a report on my experience of rural life every day. You, let's prepare well for the project with the Gu Group, and you must win the first place!"

She watched that there was a small symbol spinning next to this message, and it took a long time to show that the delivery was successful.

"Fei Fei, the signal in the countryside is not very good, let's talk about it here. ”

Then, she sent a cute kitten emoji.

Lu Feifei looked at the message sent by her best friend, her eyes were dark, until a voice full of ridicule sounded behind her-

"Yo, Lu Feifei, is your face so ugly? Is there no big backer, how can you show off your power in the company in the future? I'll just say, Qiao Xihe's kind of goods are not worthy of the president at all, it's just that the president is just fresh for a while, and after enough fun, he divorced and broke up. ”

Lu Feifei put away her mobile phone and glared at Zhang Ran without losing momentum, "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb!" After speaking, he held his head high and walked to the elevator.

Lu Xiwen looked at this scene, smiled lightly, stroked her long hair, walked to the elevator room, and then found that the air behind her became cold in an instant.

She turned her head and saw Pei Tingyuan walking into the door of the company with a gloomy face, he exuded a gloomy and majestic momentum, so that the people around him didn't even dare to breathe.

When Pei Tingyuan approached, Lu Xiwen greeted with a smile and said, "President, morning." ”

Pei Tingyuan didn't look at her, and walked straight to the president's special elevator.

Only Ji Yang followed beside him.

Halfway through, he saw Lu Feifei, stopped, and asked, "Has Qiao Xihe contacted you?"

Lu Feifei subconsciously grabbed her phone, and after being stunned for a few seconds, she shook her head and said, "No." ”

Pei Tingyuan said: "If she contacts you, you must notify me as soon as possible." ”

"Yes, President. Lu Feifei looked afraid of the majesty of the president, and bowed his head.

Pei Tingyuan didn't look at her anymore and walked into the elevator.

"The board meeting will be held promptly at half past nine. Ji Yang looked at the memo and said.

The mirror in the elevator reflected Pei Tingyuan's gloomy and terrible face, he stared at himself in the mirror, and asked in a deep voice, "What is the wind now?"

"......" Ji Yang hesitated for a moment and said, "All the media only announced the news of your divorce from Mrs. Pei, and did not comment too much on this matter. On major online forums, Weibo, and WeChat, some people lead the rhythm, and from the previous divorce cases of wealthy families, as well as the divorce rate in China, leading netizens to think that the divorce of the two of you is a very ordinary thing. ”

Pei Tingyuan frowned.

At the beginning, he thought that he and Qiao Xihe had always been very affectionate in the eyes of the public, and if he divorced rashly, it would inevitably lead to public opinion being unfavorable to the Pei family.

Unexpectedly, the old man played this hand.

Sometimes, as long as someone takes the lead, many netizens' minds will change with it.

This move is actually very dangerous, but the old man understands that the more it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be, just like a sinking scab that is difficult to heal, so he simply takes this risky move and uproots it.

Pei Tingyuan gradually tightened his fingers, even if the nails that men don't have like women, they have been finely trimmed, but they still stinged his palms deeply.

"Is there any news from Qiao Xihe?" he asked again.

Ji Yang said: "No, I have entrusted all the people who can find it to find Mrs. Pei as much as possible, and will pay attention to the bus station, railway station and airport, but so far, there is no record of Mrs. Pei leaving the city, and the hotel has no information about Mrs. Pei or her friends checking in." By the way, in the process of looking for news of Mrs. Pei, I accidentally discovered one thing. ”

"What?"

Ji Yang said: "The former director of the sales department, Lu Yang, is back, but he has not gone home to live, and he has been living in the Dragon City Hotel in the city center. ”

"Leave him alone. Pei Tingyuan said impatiently: "Step up to find Qiao Xihe's whereabouts." ”

He was very worried, Qiaoqiao was like evaporating from the world, no matter what kind of contacts and channels he used to inquire about the news, there was not a trace of it, just like ...... It was deliberately erased.

And this person is probably the old man.

He has learned how ruthless the old man is.

Perhaps, in order to completely cut off his thoughts, he can do something murderous.

Thinking of this, Pei Tingyuan slammed his fist on the elevator, and the muffled sound of "bang" made Ji Yang, who had always been calm, tremble in fright.

A few seconds later, the elevator door opened, and he regained his gloomy expression, strode out of the elevator to the board meeting that the old man had specially convened to distract him.
