Chapter 36: Her brother is in prison
After Xiao Shang left the study, Xiao Qinhong kept standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back, not knowing what he was thinking, and a pair of black eyes behind the lenses reflected a sharp cold light.
There was the sound of steady footsteps behind him.
Xiao Qinhong retracted his thoughts, turned to look at Xiao Yuan, and his eyes were gloomy: "I heard that something has happened to the company recently?"
Two years ago, after he completely handed over the company to Xiao Yuan to manage, he basically did not interfere in the company's affairs again, and yesterday he had dinner with old friends, and learned from them that Xiao's recent new project was cut off.
Cutting Hu Fang is a mysterious company that has been established less than five years ago - Jingmu.
After the establishment of Jingmu Group, it has risen in the industry at an astonishing speed, but the helmsman of Jingmu Group has not shown up so far, and there are different opinions in the industry, and no one can guess who it is.
Xiao Raw Materials came to Xiao Qinhong tonight to talk about this matter, so his tone was very calm: "It's not a big problem, don't worry, I will take care of it." ”
Xiao Qinhong frowned and warned him: "Don't take it too lightly. ”
Xiao Yuan replied without any emotion.
Every time they met between father and son, most of the things they talked about were company matters, and when business was over, all that was left was endless silence.
Xiao Qinhong also found that the atmosphere was a little silent, so he pushed the silver-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose and changed the topic: "Let's go down to eat, don't let them wait too long." ”
……
On the luxurious and elegant rosewood long dining table, Wen Lebai finally recognized everyone in the Xiao family.
The main seat sat Xiao Qinhong, the woman sitting next to him was Xie Rong, and in turn, Xiao Xinrou and Xiao Yuan sat respectively, Wen Lebai sat opposite their brother and sister, and next to him was Xiao Shang.
The atmosphere at the table was eerie.
Wen Lebai felt that this meal might be very difficult, and he didn't know if he would have indigestion tonight.
Xiao Qinhong's first impression of Wen Lebai is okay, on the one hand, she is good-looking, polite, and she also looks like a lady when she talks, and on the other hand, she is Xiao Shang's psychiatrist.
In the past, Xiao Shang would always find various reasons to shirk every time he went to the family banquet, he tried to communicate with Xiao Shang, but it didn't change anything, and even worsened the relationship between father and son. But tonight, Xiao Shang suddenly changed his mind and came back, he felt that it might be the credit of this psychiatrist, so he had a good intuitive impression of her.
Xiao Qinhong has always felt that he owes Xiao Shang too much, so much so that he didn't blame him for bringing back an outsider at the family banquet tonight.
Xie Rong has been secretly looking at Wen Lebai since she sat down, and found that this woman has nothing outstanding except for being beautiful, and she doesn't understand how Xiao Shang brought her to the house.
After a while, she asked as if unintentionally, "Who are the people in Miss Wen's family?"
Wen Lebai's hand holding the chopsticks stiffened.
She raised her eyes and looked at Xie Rong.
Although Xie Rong is in her fifties, her skin is well maintained and she looks like a person in her thirties.
"I have a younger brother. Wen Lebai raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "My parents are no longer there." ”
"I'm sorry. ”
Xie Rong asked again: "Is my brother still studying?"
When the words fell, Xiao Xinrou sneered, not softly or loudly, and everyone who happened to be sitting heard it.
"Her brother......"
Xiao Xinrou propped her chin and stared directly at Wen Lebai, I don't know if she was answering Xie Rong, or deliberately saying it to Xiao Shang, who had been silent since just now, word by word, and said amazingly: "In prison." ”
