Seeing that no one could answer what he just said, Wu Shan had to remind with a look of hatred that iron is not steel: "As mentioned just now, if Wu wants to establish an artificial intelligence research and development center, it must achieve rapid profitability and be able to see the listing expectation in the A round of financing." ”

"Ah, yes, yes, I continued. ”

However, except for Wushan, almost no one here could listen to it anymore.

At that end, Xiaobai's mobile phone fell to the ground, and the screen, which had already cracked, cracked even deeper.

She muttered to herself: He actually asked me what my conscience was! It seems that the good things he did in the past were only pretending or occasionally being in a good mood, and the essence is still a cold-blooded demon. How could I, Bai Yunuan, get involved with such a sinister person? It's terrible to get so close!

What's even more terrifying is that I used to try to transform him into a person who knows how to respect and love, but I think I'm just a fool......

The neighbors and friends around him all believe in Meng Junyao's personality, and even more believe in his ability and talent, so they firmly believe that the newspaper is nonsense, but they are all ordinary ordinary ordinary people, who want money or not, and have no backers, so they can't get anything for Meng Junyao.

At the same time, everyone also knows that those who engage in art are somewhat sensitive and easy to think too much, and Mr. Meng is no exception.

Last time, he was stimulated by the failure of the art exhibition and was hospitalized, so this time everyone was very tacit, no one mentioned the news in the newspaper to him, it was a moment to delay, and he also invited him to eat at home as much as possible, chatted about family life, and distracted him.

Therefore, when Xiaobai called, Meng Junyao, who didn't know that he had been in the newspaper, picked it up and deliberately pretended to be relaxed: "Xiaobai, how are you doing?"

"Teacher Meng, it doesn't matter how I am, are you okay?"

"I'm fine!"

Every time he asked, he said this, headache, brain fever and all kinds of troubles were not mentioned.

Xiaobai couldn't help but ask bitterly: "What's a good method?"

"The people here in M City are very simple, the scenery is beautiful, the weather is good, and it is very suitable for life. By the way, there is also a tourist attraction near us, called Tianbao Cave, there are many stalactites in it, you can come and play when you have time. ”

"Is my sister-in-law okay?"

"Sister-in-law......" Meng Junyao almost forgot that he was a married person in Xiaobai's mind, and hurriedly said, "Okay, good, she's good, she also asked me to ask you hello, hehe." ”

Lying is tiring, and you have to lie one after another, but sometimes, the original intention is well-intentioned.

"Then, thank you sister-in-law on my behalf," Xiaobai's heart hurt again, now there are people around him who are shushing the cold and asking for warmth, knowing the cold and knowing the heat, he really needs to pay attention to proportion, "I haven't seen the photo of my sister-in-law yet, let's send one over when it's convenient." ”

"Ah......" Meng Junyao hesitated and said, "Your sister-in-law doesn't like to take pictures very much, and she always thinks she is fat." Don't talk about you, even I don't have a picture of her, and if she knew that I was secretly taking pictures, she would definitely have to worry about me. Anyway, I'll try to get one when I get it, and I'll send it to you when I get it. ”

"Well, no hurry. Mr. Meng, what's the matter with the infringement of your paintings?"

Meng Junyao was taken aback: "Even you know?"

"It's already in the newspapers. ”

"Oh," Meng Junyao was dejected and silent for a moment, and then solemnly announced, "Xiaobai, you have to believe me, I didn't plagiarize. ”

"Of course I believe you, Mr. Meng, it's too much for them to ask you to compensate 150,000 yuan!

"I don't think it's that simple. ”

Xiaobai muttered, "I'm actually to blame for this matter." ”

"What does it have to do with you?"

Xiaobai didn't answer positively: "You painted me back then, right?"

Meng Junyao was a little embarrassed, originally in order not to reveal his heart, he also made some modifications to the appearance of the girl in the painting, but he didn't expect Xiaobai to see it.

But after all, he has eaten more than Xiaobai for 25 years, and he has been in contact with a lot of people, so he is still handy in dealing with this slightly embarrassing situation: "Oh, the way you sold red beans there with a basket was very cute, and I was very impressed, so I couldn't help but draw it." Red beans are not easy to express in the painting, so I changed it to a peony flower, which is a little more intense. ”

Meng Junyao explained in a hurry, trying to hide his thoughts.

However, Xiaobai's attention is not here: "Teacher Meng, you have to pay special attention to safety recently, don't go out if you have nothing to do, and when you are at home, the door must be locked......"

The way she wanted to speak and stopped making Meng Junyao very worried: "What happened Xiaobai?"

"Do you need me to testify in court? I can prove that you drew me and not plagiarized!"

"You don't have to worry about these things, are you in trouble over there?"

"I didn't expect it to hurt you, I'm sorry, if there is something I need to do, I must tell me. ”

No matter how Meng Junyao asked, Xiaobai didn't say much.

However, he recalled that one moment someone wanted to give 1 million for nothing, and another time someone framed him, plus his weight in Xiaobai's mind...... He began to worry that Xiaobai was unladylike, so he began to nag him.

"Xiaobai, you must be careful when making friends, not everyone can be friends, don't get too close when you don't understand, you know?"

These words, which only parents would babble about, are annoying nagging in many people's ears, but for orphans like Xiaobai, they are unattainable warmth.

It's a pity that some people don't get close or not, and it's really not entirely up to them.

Wu Shan ended the meeting, returned to his office with all kinds of eyes, and read the newspaper that Ma Yang gave him at a glance, and instantly understood why Xiaobai was crazy, this girl would not go crazy for no reason, so I would ask her about her guilt later.

Wu Shan tore the newspaper to shreds, opened the bay window and scattered it, letting the rumors drift away in the wind.

"It must be a ghost who is as easy as the wind," Wu Shan was very convinced, "among those hearts in the world that are blacker than crows, the best ones are as easy as the wind." ”

Ma Yang said: "He wants to separate you and Xiaobai, could it be that Xiaobai is also very interested in his appetite? Otherwise, when you were surrounded by a bunch of women around you before, why didn't you see him so nervous?"

"The more he wants it, the more I won't allow it! Bai Yunuan is my woman!"

Ma Yang, who is loyal to assist the Wu family, actually wants to warn him that Xiaobai, this girl, eats soft and does not eat hard, and it is not good for her to make a bow on the overlord, but when he thinks that the Wushan in front of him is not suitable for falling in love and marriage, emotional discomfort may be a good thing, so he swallowed the words back again.

Ma Yang also has a lot of things in his heart, and he is aggrieved, and he doesn't even have anyone to talk to.

Since Xiaobai met Wushan, he hated him to the bone again and again, and diluted it to think that the rotten wood was still okay with carving, this time, she thought that Wushan deliberately hurt the person she cared about the most, so she decided not to be soft-hearted, and from then on and Wushan cut off, if he came to entangle again, he would call the police first.

The Ballet Children's Art Center is invested by Wushan, and Xiaobai doesn't want to be favored by him anymore, but he has to be responsible for those customers who have already paid the class fees.

She wanted to refund them, but the strange thing was that those customers said that they couldn't bring their children to class because of something, but they didn't want to refund the class fee, so they put it first, and in the end, they couldn't even contact anyone, and they didn't want the money for nothing.

How did Xiaobai know, those are all childcare kindly found by Wushan, anyway, the tuition fee was delivered, and their benefit fees were also earned, and it didn't matter if they didn't go to class.

Xiaobai had no choice but to save the money for them first.

The last day of the year is just around the corner.

When night fell, Xiaobai was still sitting alone in the ballet art center, a little reluctant to give up on this place.

I spent a lot of effort on layout and planning, and I felt that I was close to my dream, but I didn't expect to give up so soon.

If she only relies on her own ability, I am afraid that it is unlikely that she will open another such a high-grade store in at least 10 or 20 years, and she doesn't want to have anything to do with Wushan again.

Turn off the lights, lock the door, walk on the street and see the lanterns to welcome the New Year, and suddenly remember that today is still my birthday.

Her birthday is known to very few people. But today I was in a bad mood and didn't even want to buy a cake, I just missed my parents very much.

At the same time, Chunni's phone call also came in.

It's still a good girlfriend, even on the other side of the ocean, she doesn't forget her birthday, which warms Xiaobai's heart a little.

Immediately after that, another phone call came in: "Hey, Xiaobai, are you home?"

It's Meng Junyao.

"Happy New Year, Mr. Meng! I'll be home soon. ”

Xiaobai always calls him Teacher Meng politely, but when no one is around, he always silently recites his name in his heart: Jun Yao.

This name is really bad, I went thousands of miles away in my dream, so I was so far away.

Meng Junyao said: "Happy New Year, pay attention to safety on the road. ”

Hung up.

Xiaobai thought in disappointment, it must be because of the recent lawsuit, he forgot to wish me a happy birthday. It doesn't matter if it's a birthday, but his blessing is too important to me.

Thinking about it, what right does a woman like herself, who has been defiled by demons, have to expect his greetings?

Without a career and no love, this birthday and New Year are destined to be lonely and lonely.

By the time I walked to the entrance of the stairs, it was completely dark.

The lights in the corridor were broken a few days ago, the black rumbles, there were a lot of discarded bicycles piled up at the door, and the middle aisle was so narrow that only one person could pass sideways.

Xiaobai cautiously stepped on the steps, and when he walked to the door of the house in the dark and was about to take out the key, his leg suddenly touched something, as if it was a person!

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

But who sits at the door of his house at night?

Hurriedly took out his phone to light it up.

The person on the ground who was originally sitting on his knees and taking a nap stood up: "Xiaobai, are you back?"

"Teacher Meng!" Xiaobai was surprised and delighted, "Why are you here?!"

Hurry open the door and let you in.

Meng Junyao put a cake box on the table and said with a smile: "I'm back on a business trip, so I'll come over to see you and celebrate your birthday." ”

"New Year's Eve and Chinese New Year's Eve still make people go on a business trip?"

"Ah, yes, there are some things in the company that are in a hurry to deal with......"
