Chapter 46: Must Meet
When I heard the name, I couldn't help but stand up: "How did you know each other?"
"At an academic seminar, after I spoke, he came up to ask questions, and we had a great chat. Moreover, he is a very erudite person, and he knows a lot of rare knowledge, and he is not the kind of fur. Zhou Lingshuang said distressedly, "I didn't expect to fall in love with him until we accidentally rolled the sheets." Since then, I can't treat him as a regular friend. β
"He took the initiative?" I asked.
"I can't say who took the initiative, both sides couldn't help it, they were ready to move, and then they hit it off. Zhou Lingshuang said casually on the other end of the phone, "It's not the first time this kind of thing has happened, I am a normal woman, and I also have normal physiological needs, and I have encountered it before and felt that it felt good in bed." Who knows, but he is this different. β
"Do you have a picture of him?" I asked.
Zhou Lingshuang smiled and said, "He is your major shareholder, you can't have seen him, right?"
I sighed and told me how I was doing. After Zhou Lingshuang heard that Si Jianlian completely removed me from the company, he scolded angrily: "Scumbag, isn't he afraid of being struck by lightning when he does this?"
Of course he wasn't afraid, otherwise he wouldn't have done it. Now, a little personal question for you. I paused for a moment and said, "How is the relationship between you and Dong Xiaoyuan? At what point? Does he love you?"
"It's okay, he's not bad to me, but the only thing that makes me depressed and upset is that he's a person who doesn't have a social endorsement. I asked him what he did and he said to do investment. However, it usually seems that he is more leisurely than a retiree, and he does not have the momentum of an investor at all. Zhou Lingshuang said.
I understood how she was feeling now, thought for a while and said, "Can you stabilize him, I'll go over and talk to him, there are private matters and business matters." β
Zhou Lingshuang is also a smart person, and he can see through it at all. She was silent on the other side of the phone for a moment and said, "In that case, I happened to have plans to visit relatives recently, and I will go back next week and take him with me." By the way, let's see if he would like to visit my parents with me. β
"Okay, let me know when you book your ticket. I said.
When I was investigating Dong Xiaoyuan's origins, Zhou Lingshuang's call was simply too timely.
Hung up Zhou Lingshuang's phone, someone was knocking on the door, I opened the door and saw Zhu Tong. He is wearing a suit today and looks like an elite.
"Tao Ran, I found Dong Xiaoyuan, now that he is in the United States, I am going to go over, and I have already found a friend and made an appointment with him. Zhu Tong said and came in, took off his suit and sat down and continued, "I want you to go with me, and go to meet my fiancΓ©e by the way." β
I looked at him and smiled without saying a word.
"Don't worry, I've explained it to her. She also wants to take the opportunity to meet you and talk to you. I told her about you, don't you mind?" asked Zhu Tong.
"Don't mind. I smiled, "But I also have good news, I have found Dong Xiaoyuan, and he may have to come back recently." β
Zhu Tong raised his eyebrows when he heard my words, stretched out his palm and struck me, saying, "I said that you won't be so wasteful and wait for death." In that case, I'll let Mingyue come back too, we haven't officially visited my parents yet. β
"Don't worry, I'll be sure tomorrow. "I was afraid that there would be changes on Zhou Lingshuang's side, so I didn't dare to say death to Zhu Tong.
Zhou Lingshuang was anxious to know everything about Dong Xiaoyuan, so she quickly arranged the itinerary, and after booking the ticket, she sent me a screenshot, which was her ticket information, and there was another name under her name, which was Dong Xiaoyuan.
Seeing this, I breathed a sigh of relief and notified Zhu Tong.
This week has been a bit like a year, but fortunately, Sheng Qingjin has not regenerated any demon moths. After Si Jianlian fell out with his parents, he completely ignored this family. That's fine, I also completely classified him into the scumbag team from my heart.
Zhou Lingshuang They arrived at the capital airport at 5:40 p.m. on Saturday, and Zhu Tong and I waited at the exit at 5 p.m.
The plane was not delayed, and when Zhou Lingshuang saw me through the glass, he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
We looked at each other and didn't say anything, and gave each other a hug first. She hugged me and said, "I'm sorry, I'm in love at this time, and I feel a little bit of salt in your wounds." β
"Love is still beautiful, it's my own business to meet someone who is not ladylike, don't lose the center with partial generalizations. I whispered in her ear.
We looked at each other and smiled and let go.
Only then did I have the opportunity to take a serious look at Dong Xiaoyuan who was standing beside her. He was about thirty years old, with crisp features, gold-rimmed glasses, and a smile in his eyes when he looked at people. Overall, this is a man who looks pleasing to the eye, and the only drawback is that he is slightly lacking in height, probably only a little more than 1.7 meters. Zhou Lingshuang's height is 1.65 meters, and he is still a good match when he stands next to him.
"Let me introduce you. Zhou Lingshuang took Dong Xiaoyuan's hand and said to me, "This is my friend Dong Xiaoyuan." After speaking, she turned to me and said to Dong Xiaoyuan, "This is my best friend and classmate Tao Ran, who is also the founder of KB." β
Dong Xiaoyuan was not surprised by her introduction to me at all, and said with a smile: "I know, I have admired it for a long time, and I finally saw it." Ling Shuang's friends, all of them are big beauties, and they are not disappointed every time they see you. β
I also introduced Zhu Tong to him, Dong Xiaoyuan looked at him and smiled slightly: "I know you, there are not many Chinese in the American venture capital circle, and you are quite a famous No. 1 person." β
Zhu Tong also smiled and shook hands with him.
His familiarity with us was beyond my expectations, and I thought that it could be Zhou Lingshuang who introduced him to him, so I didn't think much about it.
Zhou Lingshuang's hometown is in Wuhu, Anhui Province, and this time she can only stay in Beijing for three days. I've already booked a hotel for them, a suite at the Ritz-Carlton.
Ling Shuang saw that I had booked a room, and quietly bumped me on the shoulder: "It's better to be sisters, you know my needs too well." β
I also smiled: "You really know everything about him, I can basically judge that it is true love." β
She asked me in a daze, "You mean your situation?"
I nodded, but she shook her head and said, "I haven't said any of this, he knows it himself." When you have been in contact with him for a long time, you will know that he is like a jack of all trades, no matter who he mentions, he can tell one, two, three, four, and I initially suspected that he had followed me, so I deliberately approached me. I didn't expect it to be not, he didn't know anyone. β
I was stunned for a moment, and quickly returned to normal.
The two of them flew for more than ten hours, and Zhu Tong and I sent them to the hotel and left, and made an appointment to meet the next day.
On the way back, I told Zhu Tong about the situation. He was not surprised, and said indifferently: "It's not strange that if he can even hide his own source of funds, but can legally buy your shares in the market, he is not a simple person." Before he knew who he was going to meet, he would definitely investigate the situation. What's more, as long as you have a caring person in your current situation, you will know it after a little inquiry. β
As soon as I heard that, I was relieved.
Si Jianlian has done things so desperately, lest the world not know, there is really nothing to keep secret.
The next day's meeting was the main one, I lay in bed at night and typed the manuscript for most of the night, and sorted out all the situations I could think of before I fell asleep peacefully.
I arranged to meet at home, sent a location to Ling Shuang, and they took a taxi around ten o'clock in the morning. Zhou Lingshuang had never been to my house, looked at the house, patted me on the shoulder and said, "It's not a big deal that the marriage is gone, but we still have money." β
While we were chatting, Dong Xiaoyuan listened quietly and politely on the side. I found an opportunity to bring the topic to him: "Hello Mr. Dong, to be honest, although you are the major shareholder of KB, this is the first time I have met you, what is the beginning of your cooperation with Si Jianlian?"
I say this as a temptation. Judging from the information I found, Si Jian didn't even seem to know much about this Dong Xiaoyuan, otherwise I wouldn't have met him so smoothly.
"I don't know him well, I'm just a shareholder, I just know the company's stock, as for who is the CEO, who is in charge of investment, and who is in charge of business has nothing to do with me. Dong Xiaoyuan said.
"Then you are quite bold when you make investments, do you come to the annual shareholders' meeting? I see that you have also been in KB for almost three years. I asked again.
"Two years and eight months. Dong Xiaoyuan said without concealment, "I divided the bonus twice, and I faxed the authorization documents at the first two shareholders' meetings." I'm a very simple person, just invest and get money, don't participate in business, and don't give any opinions. β
"Then you ......" I still want to ask.
He interrupted me with a smile: "I know you want to know if I have a relationship with Si Jianlian. To be honest, I've only met him once, and I feel average about him, thinking that it is impossible for a person like him to make a KB company, and I have always wondered how he, a person with no success factor, can make such a big company. I didn't know until I saw you yesterday that the soul of KB was you. β
I knew he was saying this as a compliment, but my heart was very useful.
"I also know that you are now divorcing Si Jianlian, and in order to get more shares, you are a little bit against each other. He continued.
An outsider analyzed our situation so thoroughly that I felt a little tightness in my chest and shortness of breath.
"To be honest, I investigated you before I came, not through Ling Shuang. There is no business between me and her, no business. Dong Xiaoyuan said.
I was amazed at his straightforwardness, but I also appreciated his directness.
You're right, it's true. I said.
"So you want to meet me, not just for Ling Shuang, but more for yourself. Dong Xiaoyuan said, looking at Ling Shuang, "I told you about this." β
Ling Shuang nodded: "I don't mind." β
"Open the skylight and say something bright, do you want to cooperate with me?" Dong Xiaoyuan asked again.
I immediately judged in my heart that Dong Xiaoyuan was not a puppet, and a puppet did not have this kind of thinking.
