Chapter 80: A Man from the Past
Zhang Xingchen's smile gradually disappeared from the corner of his mouth, he stared at me motionlessly, and then asked, "Dead first love?" I heard you mention it to Lu Xiaochao last time, what do you mean? β
"You really didn't hear our conversation back then? No wonder β I said how come you are so calm, so you still don't remember anything? I laughed out loud and looked coldly at Zhang Xingchen with a cold face in front of me, and I felt indescribably happy.
"Chu Mingmin?" Zhang Xingchen narrowed his eyes and asked me, the look in his eyes made him look like a beast that was about to attack at any moment.
"You don't remember anything, at least you remember her name."
I smiled mischievously and stepped back, Zhang Xingchen's gaze became sharper and colder, and I could almost hear the clicking of his bones as he clenched his fists.
"Lu Xiaochao told you so? What else did she say? In the end, the gloom on Zhang Xingchen's face disappeared, and he seemed to believe that Lu Xiaochao was the source of his pain.
I nodded noncommittally, unintentionally helping Lu Xiaochao clarify: "She also said that you just regarded her as Chu Mingmin's shadow, you don't really love her, you will be good to her because she, like Chu Mingmin, is a disabled person." β
Zhang Xingchen's face changed again, his eyes flickered for a moment, but quickly disappeared, he stared at me and said, "You go back and sue her, this time she guessed correctly, this is the most self-aware of her." β
At this moment, Yin Hengda's laughing voice came, and Danqi lost.
Gu Mingyu also clapped his palms on the side, and he didn't know when he actually stood on the united front with Yin Heng, and Ru Lang's expression was terrible, he stared at Danqi, and when he heard Danqi say that he wanted to return the shares of Haiyin Hotel to Yin Heng, his face was even more angry and his face turned blue and white.
"Skills are not as good as others!" Danqi said, and then glanced at Ru Lang. Bringing his ugly face into his eyes, the corners of his mouth pulled up a vague smile.
"Concession." Yin Hengda laughed twice, then walked to Danqi's side and said: "Haiyin Hotel has a special meaning for me, this time DATS your subordinates are merciful, I will thank you again another day!" β
Danqi waved his hand and walked towards Zhang Xingchen. The two of them shook hands, and then they heard Dan Qi say to Zhang Xingchen: "Harlon, let's have a fight at any time, even if it's golf, let's still basketball, have fun." β
"Okay!" Zhang Xingchen responded, and the haze just now was completely overturned.
"But are you all recovered?" Just now, it looked like I didn't know anyone, but now that I look at their acquaintance, I must know each other.
Zhang Xingchen nodded and said, "It's all right." β
"That's good! What about your father? The chairman asked me to say hello to Ling Zun on her behalf. Oh, by the way, the chairman said, the last time she attended the old classmate reunion, she saw your mother. β
"I'll visit the chairman another day and ask her again." When he said this, Zhang Xingchen seemed to be a little absent-minded, at this time. The caddy handed him the phone, and he answered the phone and hurried away.
"Uncle Yin, congratulations!" I congratulate you. Yin Heng smirked a few more times, walked over and patted me on the shoulder. I glanced at Ru Lang, no matter how his wishful thinking was played, it seemed to be in vain, and when I caught a glimpse of Zhang Xingchen's face, I immediately felt comfortable.
"General Manager Lin!"
Danqi stopped me. Walking towards me, and was about to say something, Ru Lang took the first step and stood between me and him, and Ru Lang handed the club to the secretary next to him. Then he took off his gloves and said to Danqi: "DATS, I haven't seen you for so many years, I really want to catch up with you, and there is an old person to introduce to you." β
"Okay, then Mr. Gu and Mr. Yin, I'll go first, let's get together another day......" Dan Qi glanced at me over Ru Lang, nodded at me, and then followed Ru Lang with a stiff expression, Ru Qin greeted Gu Mingyu and left after greeting them.
"Uncle Yin, what is the origin of this Danqi? What does he have to do with Ru Lang? I asked Yin Heng.
Yin Heng shook his head, but Gu Mingyu opened his mouth: "We didn't know him before today, he is the executive president of the Dingsheng Consortium, it is said that the chairman of the Dingsheng Consortium trusts him very much, I heard that this Danqi used to ,......" Gu Mingyu stopped his eyes on me and said: "He once got engaged to your sister Lin Xuan, and the person who made this engagement was Ru Lang." β
The marriage contract promoted by Ru Lang is a copy of me and Ru Yu.
"In this way, the relationship between Danqi and Ru Lang is not simple, but how could he return the shares of Haiyin Hotel to me so lightly this time?" Uncle Yin's face was solemn.
This Danqi, who has been engaged to his sister, has a great relationship with Ru Lang, and is also familiar with Zhang Xingchen, but he said loudly that he is interested in my chips, what are my chips?
When I returned to the company, I went directly to the design department, Lu Xiaochao was working on the desk with his head down, I walked over, her friend Ling Mei saw me and immediately stood up, seeing that she was about to remind Lu Xiaochao, I quickly shook my head to stop it.
Lu Xiaochao is drawing a design draft, but it doesn't seem to be going well.
Sighing, she crumpled the manuscript paper in her hand for the Nth time and threw it into the paper basket on her right, still not noticing my deposit.
After standing for more than ten minutes, she still buried herself in painting, completely ignoring the qiΔ around her.
"Lu Xiaochao, if you continue to draw like this, let alone the finals, you won't be able to pass the preliminary round." I walked up behind her and pulled the artwork out of her hand.
When Lu Xiaochao saw that it was me, he immediately called the general manager in a proper manner, and did not reach out to grab the artwork, and judged the two of them as if they were in the past.
"Lu Xiaochao, how did you become so honest?" I teased, and when I saw the other people in the office sticking out their heads to watch the excitement, I clapped my hands at everyone and said, "At the dinner party in the evening, I have a treat, and no one is allowed to run, so I will participate!" β
"Yes!" The office immediately shouted, and it seemed that everyone was very satisfied with this mention.
"I have to draw a manuscript at night, so I don't have time." Lu Xiaochao snorted.
I pretended not to hear, pointed to Lu Xiaochao and said to Ling Mei: "Remember, there are no less people in the design department, especially her." β
"Okay!" Ling Meili responded.
I thought about Danqi, and after leaving the design department, I went to Lin Xuan's office, where several executives were reporting to her office, and I sat on the sofa and waited for a while, after those executives went out one after another. Lin Xuan ignored me.
"Sister, is something wrong with the company? Why are they all in the office? I asked.
"It's not a good thing you provoked!" Lin Xuan glared at me angrily, threw Wen JiΓ n on the table, walked to the sofa and sat down, and said, "Ru Lang's newly established jewelry company has set up stores and counters next to us, and has also invited well-known movie stars to advertise. It still has a partial impact on us. β
I frowned, feeling a little incredulous: "Is a company they just set up so big?" How many store counters can still affect us? β
"The locations where they set up stores or counters are all a few places where we have a lot of traffic, and they are clearly aimed at us." Lin Xuan pinched her eyebrows and said: "That designer named Su Zhe, don't underestimate him, several of his designs have now become the focus of women's pursuit, and he is no worse than Lu Xiaochao." β
I couldn't help but smile: "Why does it sound like you're praising Lu Xiaochao?" β
"Young poor, what is the matter with you coming to me?"
Thinking that she was in a bad mood. I shook my head and said, "I'm just here to see you, old lady, should you find a man to marry?" β
Lin Xuan didn't get annoyed when she heard this, she just stared at me with strange eyes and said, "Why do you suddenly care about me?" What about Lu Xiaochao, how is she at work? β
"She? - She's fine, don't need my cΔo heart. I waved my hand and saw that Lin Xuan was deliberately changing the topic. I didn't talk any more.
finally got off work, and Secretary Liu had already booked a private room. I called the design department and went downstairs with me.
When I got downstairs, I happened to meet the group of people in the design department, and Lu Xiaochao was also there, walking in the crowd unhappily, without looking at me.
Except for a few heavyweight designers who didn't arrive, everyone else was also counted. The dishes in this hotel are not bad, after the dishes are all in place, everyone is not restrained, and the food is quite unimpressive.
Lu Xiaochao is still like that, watching her eat. It was like chewing wax, and she probably didn't even know what she was putting in her mouth.
She sat far away from me, as if intent on drawing a line with me, and I didn't want to force her, so I let her go.
During the banquet, she was drinking, and I found out early, so I couldn't help but block it for her.
"She's so bad at drinking, I'll drink it for her." I reached out and took her glass, and drank it all under her angry gaze.
"What's the matter, drunk upstairs hotel is more than a room. β¦β¦ I'm just curious, general manager, what is your relationship with Lu Xiaochao? Is that news true? A little girl who persuaded Lu Xiaochao to drink asked.
Ling Mei pushed the girl and said, "Yuhan, you are so gossipy!" β
"The general manager has never hidden it, why can't he ask?" The person named Yuhan glanced at Ling Mei, then turned around and asked me, "General Manager, do you like Lu Xiaochao?" β
The eyes of everyone present fell on me, Lu Xiaochao looked at me with some grievances in her eyes, and I don't know if she was drunk again, she said in a tone full of complaints: "Do you know how bad my popularity is in the company?" Can you tell everyone the truth? β
"The truth?" Yuhan immediately leaned over: "Little Sister Chao, what is the truth?" β
"Yes, yes, what's the truth?" The others immediately started to cheer.
Lu Xiaochao stood up from the chair with her hands above her head, she looked really drunk, and her words were indistinct: "The truth isβthe truth, the truth is...... General Manager Lin and I are in a @%Β₯* relationship. β
I heard it vaguely, probably just talking about the contract, but Yuhan and the others didn't understand, their faces were dazed, and then they chased Lu Xiaochao and asked: "What?" β
When everyone was in a commotion, Secretary Liu pushed the door and walked in and said, "The KTV box is booked upstairs, and everyone can go up after eating." β
"Wow-" There was another loud cheer, and except for a few foodies who were still lingering at the table, the others walked out in a hurry.
Lu Xiaochao was carried out by Ling Mei and Yuhan, and I followed behind and got on another elevator, and a couple in the elevator was talking to each other, up and down, and when they saw me coming in, they immediately separated as if nothing happened.
I am a frequent visitor to this hotel, and there is nothing embarrassing about such a scene, but I am secretly lucky in my heart, fortunately Lu Xiaochao did not bump into such a scene, although I don't want to admit it, what makes me even more glad is that Lu Xiaochao has not bumped into me and other women like this.
When the elevator door closed, a figure passed in front of the elevator, and I looked familiar, a bit like Zhang Xingchen...... (To be continued......)
PS: I'm Zhong Xiaoluo, thank you for your continued support to me, and I wish you all a happy holiday!
