Chapter 138: He Xiao is abnormal
I smiled when I heard him.
This kind of laughter is polite, and there is no emotion in it. Gu Yixiao has been with me for a long time, and he can naturally see it.
"Tao Ran, this is my business with you, can you talk about it alone. I don't want Si Jianlian to sit in on it. He frowned.
"Me and you, me and him, are all once intimacy, there is nothing that cannot be said. I looked at him indifferently, "Besides, what you have to say is not a secret thing. ”
"Tao Ran. He looked at me with a particularly helpless expression.
I stopped talking.
Si Jian sneered twice: "Gu Yixiao, this play between you and Sheng Qingjin is really clever, I am ashamed of myself." However, you have calculated me, and you have calculated our husband and wife. We haven't had time to do the math yet. Now, you're staging the play of sadomasochistic love again, isn't it a bit old-fashioned?
For the first time, I felt that Si Jianlian's hurtful words were actually quite beautiful.
Gu Yixiao completely ignored Si Jianlian and stared at me all the time.
I suddenly felt tired, and I didn't want to be false with him, so I said to Si Jianlian: "I'll go upstairs to rest first, and notify me to come down and lock the door when you leave." Also, don't call back at my house. ”
Si Jianlian and him, I don't want to be biased.
With that, I got up and walked upstairs.
Gu Yixiao called my name again behind my back, and I pretended not to hear it.
I went to my room, closed the door and lay down on the bed. At this moment, I was really at peace. smiled at Gu and Si Jianlian, I didn't have any fluctuations in my heart.
Suddenly I understood the meaning of a sentence: there is a kind of happiness called death.
The two of them stayed downstairs for about an hour, and Si Jianlian called me and said that they left first, and he would go to the company to find me if there was something.
I got up and went downstairs to close the door.
Through the door glass, I saw the back of Gu Yixiao and Si Jianlian walking towards their car.
Man is really a ridiculous animal, in his own hands, when he is by his side, he cannot perceive the goodness of a person. Now, I have gone far away, I have been separated, and I have come to remember the old feelings one by one. I remember when I was young, I don't know where I saw a poem, and if I remember correctly, the original sentence said, "When you are aware of the existence of a certain part of your body, this part must be a soldier." When you experience the good of a person, the person must be dead, or the heart is dead. ”。
This is an incisive statement.
My hand injury healed very quickly, and after two weeks, I was able to move freely after removing the board. The doctor complimented me on my good recovery, but I didn't say no. Because, I want to live well, for myself.
The day after I got off the board, I had to go to KB to accept an apology and then get compensation.
Early the next morning, I put on delicate makeup in front of the mirror, wore a dark blue suit, and drove to the office. He Xiao, the uncle, also came early in the morning, wearing a dark blue suit and a regular tie.
The colors of our two clothes collided.
He laughed and said, "It feels a bit like a couple's outfit." ”
"You're so formal?" I asked.
"It's respect for the compensation. He Xiao smiled, "I'll go change my clothes, and it looks like a work uniform." ”
The joke of the couple is not funny at all. If the company opens a mom-and-pop shop, unless you reach the scale of a giant, it will make customers more or less skeptical.
Men keep several sets of clothes in the office because their clothes are also simple.
He Xiao and I arrived at KB ten minutes earlier than scheduled, and there were already people from the legal department waiting here. He introduced himself as Bai and was the head of the legal department. We'll call him Lawyer Bai.
Lawyer Bai took us to the conference room, and the signing documents had already been prepared and placed neatly on the table.
There was a man sitting at the conference table, and when he looked up, I could tell that it was Gu Yixiao.
He has changed a lot during this period of time, and his face is no longer full of vigor as before, but he looks mournful, and his face is also gray.
"You're here. He said four words simply.
He Xiao looked around for a week and found that he was alone, and his voice was half teasing and half questioning, and said: "Laughing, didn't you say that there are good people in the media? Where are the media people now? We can't sign contracts so secretly, right? If we admit our mistakes, we must also have an attitude of admitting mistakes." ”
I didn't care much about this, so I glanced at He Xiao more.
When he saw my eyes, he ignored them, and instead said to Gu Yi with a smile: "Tao Ran, this person has never fallen into the ground, and he is a true gentleman among women." I'm different, I can't let a single cent of what I've set. ”
Gu Yixiao squinted at him, and finally said, "The media is here, it's next door, wait for the signing and then let them in." ”
He Xiao smiled: "How many media, don't shake us." ”
"No, I've got everything you asked. Gu Yixiao's voice was a little lifeless, and it was also a bit of resignation that he had never had before.
It suddenly occurred to me that I hadn't met Gu Tianbao for a long time. How much he made in this time, according to my guess, it should be a lot.
I was thinking about it when the door of the conference room was pushed open, and Gu Tianbao walked in.
His face was ruddy, his eyes were burning, he was wearing a white custom suit, and his hair was also newly styled, which was quite a bit like Gu Kun's old rascal.
When he saw me and He Xiao, he smiled and raised his hand to say hello: "Oops, the two bosses are here." We're all ready here, shall we sign now, or will we wait for an auspicious time?"
"By scheduled time. Gu Yi said with a smile.
"Okay. Gu Tianbao replied happily.
After Gu Tianbao finished speaking, he turned around and went out, and called the secretary to serve tea to He Xiao and me.
Gu Yixiao sat opposite me, and I sat next to He Xiao. There were three people in a conference room, but it was as quiet as if there were no living creatures.
The heart is like stopping water.
I said to myself that there could be no more fluctuations. I'm here to do business, not to help the poor psychologically. Isn't Gu Yixiao's genuine girlfriend Fang Ya? she is a psychiatrist, let her cure him well.
We sat for more than ten minutes, and the scheduled time for the signing ceremony arrived.
Gu Yixiao looked at his watch, and as soon as the time came, he stood up and said to me and He Xiao: "Let's go to the signing venue." ”
After waiting in this conference room for ten minutes, I re-read the signing documents, and all the terms were untouched, exactly the same as we had negotiated beforehand.
The signing venue KB was indeed arranged, but it was not as grand as other formal cooperation signings. In my opinion, a signing ceremony that humiliates the country is already good.
There is another biggest advantage of me, I don't kill people too much.
He Xiao looked around and didn't pick on it.
There are indeed a lot of media at the venue, and looking at the LOGO of the tube in their hands, it is indeed the one we communicated with before.
He Xiao, I basically don't have to speak. He coped with this kind of scene with great skill, and he took a cold and mysterious route. When he was speaking, I heard some reporters close to me whispering and asking, why is Tao Ran with He Xiao again? How mixed is this woman's circle? How can she recognize any kind of great god?
I take this as a compliment.
At that time when I studied abroad, there were not as many international students as there are now, basically there are no self-funded students, and those who can get a scholarship are all strong-minded students. They have endured hardships and calmed down, and they are all top-notch existences in foreign schools. The teachers at that time also liked the hard work of the Chinese students, and we were generally honest and hardworking, and we had a good relationship with our classmates. So, back then, I saved a lot of contacts in school.
What's more, now that we have all graduated for nearly ten years, these students have developed well in their respective industries, and they are basically the central force in today's society.
When I signed, I had to come to the podium in person, because the compensation was paid to me.
As soon as I got on stage, the flashing lights started going off non-stop.
Now I'm unwittingly turned into a news stream because my identity is complex enough. I am not only the former president of KB, but also the ex-wife of Si Jianlian, and I have had an affair with Gu Yixiao, and many people in the industry know that I have had a relationship with Gu Yixiao. Now, I have established Feixiang Technology, backed by the company, and pulled in the investment community boss He Yishou.
Nowadays, Feixiang technology is in full swing. Although the scale of the company is not very large, it has obtained the patent of 5G standard at the beginning, obtained liquidated damages from Consortium A, which has just entered China, and has signed a preliminary strategic cooperation agreement with two major domestic communication operators. The form of development in the future is self-evident.
When I was interviewed by reporters, I couldn't help but sum up all kinds of things about myself. Overall, I'm doing a good job. At least in front of outsiders, they saw my brilliance.
But no one knows what kind of torment I went through behind the scenes.
Every day, every step, I have walked extremely hard.
However, these deficiencies are not related to outsiders. Because, no one will believe you if you say it, and everyone will think that you are hypocritical.
So, just shut up and don't say anything, I'll say whatever they want to hear.
I successfully signed all the documents that should be signed, and there were more than 10 copies. After I signed it, the little secretary with KB brought all the documents to Gu Yixiao, and he signed them.
At this time, a reporter from a financial weekly suddenly spoke up and smiled at Gu Yi: "Mr. Gu, it is rumored that you and Mr. Tao were lovers, and Mr. Tao's divorce lawsuit was still fought by you, and it is rumored that you accompanied Mr. Tao to the United States a few months ago, before acquiring KB, and participated in the equity transfer of Gandhi Investment to KB. Excuse me, how did you and her get to where you are today, and why are you now the owner of KB and there are still breaches of contract and infringement?"
The question is long.
It is estimated that this is also what all the reporters present want to ask.
Therefore, as soon as his voice fell, the audience was silent.
Everyone looked up at Gu Yixiao, waiting for his answer.
I didn't look at it and smiled, looked at He Xiao, and asked in a low voice, "You made it?"
"I'll give you some anger, in fact, he is very good to push away, maybe he has nothing to say. What's more, he still wants to get engaged to Fang Ya now. He Xiao smiled when he said this, "I just can't see my own people being bullied." ”
His expression, I look like a drama spirit.
The matter of me and Gu Yixiao, he came to play the domineering president of the actor's upper body.
I smiled: "You're embarrassing me, let's say, how did I offend you." ”
He didn't speak, because Gu Yixiao spoke.
"Ladies and gentlemen, first of all, this is a work signing occasion, and before you arrived, I made it clear that I only reported on the signing of the contract, and had nothing to do with personal matters. I have no comment on your question. Gu Yixiao blocked it back as soon as he said a word.
The reporter was so stunned that he didn't even have a word to refute it.
He Xiao scolded softly: "Cowardice." ”
My mouth bent and I smiled slightly: "That's Gu Yixiao, Gu Kun's personal choice to inherit you, do you think anyone would dare to offend?"
He Xiao stopped talking with a gloomy face.
The signing ceremony was successfully completed, and nothing happened afterwards. We agreed that the infringing money would be transferred to my account in three batches within one month, otherwise the judicial department would intervene in the next step.
After the signing was completed, He Xiao and I walked outside after the reporter left.
Just as I was about to go out, a bright-eyed secretary came over and said to me, "Mr. Tao, we want to see you." ”
"I've seen it just now, and I'm done with business, so I don't think there's any need to see it. I finished speaking and prepared to bypass her, and added, "You can tell him what I said." ”
"There is not only one surname Gu in the whole world. A voice sounded at the door, and I followed the sound and looked over and saw Gu Tianbao.
"See me here, and don't you be afraid to smile and guard against you?" I asked.
He smiled faintly and said, "What is not guarded, even if I am confined in an iron cage all day long, he will guard against me." After all, I am of orthodox blood, and he is a sidebranch. ”
"This is the truth, but someone like Gu Kun cares about this. If he cares, he would have married your mother into the door, and will let her live in a small cottage for no apparent reason?" I asked.
Gu Tianbao's eyes were cold, and then the coldness only lasted for three seconds before disappearing: "You know a lot." ”
"Working with you is like walking on the tip of a knife. I paused, "No, it's like this when I cooperate with your Gu family." Your A consortium is a wolf that eats people and doesn't spit out bones. ”
He smiled, "Thank you for the praise." ”
Gu Tianbao is thick-skinned, and I have already understood it, so it is not surprising.
He Xiao stood aside but was a little tired, and said impatiently and coldly: "Our Tao total hourly wage is very high, if you have something to say, you can say it, and you have nothing to do." Small talk, you can go to a little influencer who admires you. ”
Gu Tianbao's face turned pale by what he said.
"Mr. Tao, can you talk about it alone. He asked.
He Xiao squinted at me and said, "You have this time, why don't I know, the company still has a bunch of urgent matters, let's go back first." ”
When He Xiao was working, he was He Papi.
I still wanted to say something to Gu Tianbao, but he had already pulled me out.
When I got to the car, I asked him, "What are you doing in such a hurry?" ”
He smiled coldly: "Tao Ran, you are really lucky to have survived in the mall until now." Now that Gu Yixiao has had such a big thing during his tenure as president, not to mention losing money, and discrediting Consortium A, it may not be clear how long he can sit in the position of president. Now Gu Kun didn't say anything to replace him, is Gu Tianbao in a hurry? If he is in a hurry, he will definitely be in bad water, and it is estimated that he will calculate you today and push Gu Yixiao down completely. ”
"How do you know he's going to run out of bad water?" I asked.
He never said anything for no reason, that's why I asked.
He Xiao looked at me and smiled: "The reporters haven't cleared up yet, and a few of them were left behind by Gu Tianbao under the pretext of drinking tea." When I went to the bathroom just now, I accidentally got lost, passed by the pantry, and saw Gu Tianbao sneakily talking to a female employee, so I listened to it more curiously. He's asking the female employee to bring you a cup of tea. ”
"Is there anything wrong with that?" I asked.
His eyes were on fire, and he scolded me, "Pig brains." ”
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and said, "No, it insults the pig to scold you like this." ”
"Get down to business, don't just look for a chance to scold me. I said.
I have long been accustomed to He Xiao's occasional poisonous tongue, and I was not affected by him, so I went straight to the point.
"Based on my understanding of Gu Tianbao, he must have drugged the tea, calculated that you and Gu Yixiao had some scandal, and then recorded that the reporter photographed it, and then it was rumored that you and Gu Yixiao should be in harmony with each other, ready to hollow out KB. He Xiao is no longer selling Guanzi, and he said it clearly and clearly.
I broke out in a cold sweat.
Seeing my scared look, he cut me and prepared to drive away.
"Wait. I stopped him.
"What are you going to do to inform Gu Yixiao?" he asked.
"Why don't you support Gu Tianbao's seizure of power?" I ignored his question, and instead stared into his eyes seriously and asked.
"Gu Tianbao is not suitable for the upper position, I don't know if you cooperated with him before. Now, I know, I will never allow you to cooperate with him again. He Xiao said resolutely.
"There has to be a valid reason. I said.
"No matter what he does, Gu Kun will not choose him. Therefore, in fact, Gu Yixiao is also worrying about the sky. He Xiao said another earth-shattering sentence.
I took a deep breath, calmed down my shock, and said to him, "He Xiao, you must know something, it's better to say it clearly." ”
"You can't say anything about it, but if you say it, you have to die. He Xiao said.
"Then I'm going to go back and confirm whether it's true or not, if Gu Tianbao is cooperating with me and calculating me at the same time, I will calculate this account. With that, I pulled the door and got out of the car.
He Xiao was so anxious that he followed me and said anxiously: "Just hide away from him in the future, you have to go up." ”
Naturally, I didn't want to believe it, and I felt that He Xiao was a little suspicious.
I also have a shortcoming in this, which is that it is more serious. I can't do things for Gu Tianbao and be calculated by him at the same time. This is my bottom line, whoever wants to lie to me now, don't let me know, otherwise I will definitely seek justice.
I walked very fast, and when He Xiao chased after me, I had already entered the elevator.
I was too familiar with the layout in the KB office building, so I found Gu Tianbao in three minutes. When I pushed open the door to his office, he was stunned, he didn't expect me to be so fast.
"Tao Ran, why are you back again?" he asked.
I smiled at him: "Shake He Xiao away, I want to talk to you." Do you have any new plans?"
His eyes were visibly happy, and he said, "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have kept you." ”
I smiled, "Let's get straight to the point." ”
"Let's talk about it in another place. As he spoke, his eyes glanced intentionally into the corner of the room. I know, there are monitors there.
KB where there is a monitor, I am also quite familiar with it.
He took me to the upper floor.
When designing this floor, we built a gym, a café, a library, a gardening room, and the most popular meditation room at that time.
Gu Tianbao took me to the meditation room.
In the northeast corner of this room, the walls are covered with dark blue wallpaper, which is a calming color. The carpet is off-white linen, and there are four neat cushions on the floor.
He sat me down, looked at the huge floor-to-ceiling window on the side, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll come in with a drink." ”
"Good. "I showed complete trust in him.
Since I knew how he drugged him, I knew how to avoid it.
He went out, and after about five minutes, he brought in two cups of tea, then put the small tea tray on the ground, and said, "I said so much at the press conference just now, drink some tea to moisten my throat." ”
"Good. I answered and took it.
Just as he was about to drink the tea, I suddenly touched my handbag and apologized to him, "I'm sorry, I have a phone call." ”
There was disappointment in his eyes, but there was a flash: "You please." ”
I took out my phone, stood up and pretended to answer: "Hello, it's the teacher of Doubao." ”
In short, I played a good role in front of him, and finally said to him apologetically: "I'm sorry, I can't talk about it today, I have to go out for a trip to the kindergarten with Doubao." ”
Gu Tianbao's eyes were obviously impatient, he thought for a while and said, "We won't talk about our affairs for long, why don't you let the teacher take care of you for a while?"
"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that the child's clothes are wet, and the teacher asked him to send a set. I said.
"I'll let someone buy it and send it over, and tell me the number the child is wearing. Gu Tianbao said.
I excused myself and agreed.
He went out to call someone to buy clothes for Doubao, I exchanged the two teacups, and then sent a message to Doubao's teacher saying that someone would go and send clothes to Doubao later, and let her collect it.
As soon as these were done, Gu Tianbao came in.
He first subconsciously glanced at the teacup on the ground, then looked at me and asked, "It's all agreed, let's talk about business." ”
I don't know if I've gone too far, so I licked my lips subconsciously, then picked up the teacup and said to him, "Thank you." ”
"You're welcome. He said.
I drank the tea down, and he followed suit.
"What's your new plan?" I asked.
He didn't notice anything wrong, and smiled at me: "Fang Ya and Gu Yixiao's engagement date is basically set, I'll talk to you." If you have something in your hand that can stop this engagement, it's going to be a knife edge. ”
"I know, what day?" I asked, pretending to be concerned.
"The sixteenth of the following month. He said.
Whether Fang Ya and Gu Yixiao can get engaged or not is not a foregone conclusion now. Because Fang Ya is now with Lu Zihan, they are noisy and noisy, and the Cold War has been reconciled three times.
"What about you?" I asked.
He smiled mysteriously: "You'll know when the time comes." ”
I sighed, stood up and said to him, "Go to the bathroom first, you wait for me." ”
