Chapter 32: Meals
Seeing that Zheng Jue's face was not good, Zhou Chengan also retracted his joke in time, and quickly put on a serious face: "Actually, it's nothing to go to Wen Hua'an's banquet this time, he is like a trapped beast now, I'm afraid that he is already in a hurry, you go and appease him, don't do anything to lose both." ”
Seeing Zhou Chengan say this, Zheng Jue didn't want to get angry anymore, so he only responded with a cold face.
After that, the two exchanged a few words, the focus was still on how to deal with the Wen family, the Wen family business is huge, it must be difficult to completely destroy it, only a little bit of friction from the inside can make him mess up, and only when the Wen family is in chaos, they want to fish in troubled waters are easy to operate.
**
Zheng Jue and Zhou Cheng'an were separated in the city center, Zhou Cheng'an returned to Zhou's, Zheng Jue went to his house in the city, it was not yet two o'clock, and he went to the banquet immediately.
Zheng Jue went upstairs and sent Susie away, but in half an hour, the doorbell rang.
Zheng Jue personally went to open the door, and the person at the door turned out to be Zheng Jue's stockbroker in Hong Kong - Alex.
Zheng Jue smiled and welcomed Alex in, Alex looked excited, seeing Zheng Jue was like seeing a Bodhisattva, his eyes were full of light, and when he entered the door, he didn't have time to sit down, so he immediately said: ", Your hand is really beautiful, this year, I have been secretly collecting the shares of Wenli Fund and Zhaoyang Real Estate according to your instructions, although I lost a lot before, but now these two stocks are in the limelight, and now you can make a lot of money." ”
Seeing Alex excited, Zheng Jue's face was unusually calm, and he said in a low voice: "How many shares have you collected in total?" ”
Alex took out a large bunch of Wen Jiàn from his bag and gave it to Zheng Jue, and said excitedly: "Including closing from the stock market, and finding some retail investors to buy, intermittently for so long, Wenli Fund has closed 15%, and Zhaoyang Real Estate also has 11%, which is still the blessing of the crisis at that time, those retail investors are in a hurry to get out, which is cheaper for us.5./books/35/35156/
Out of print to escape marriage, His Royal Highness Tsundere is obedient. ”
Zheng Jue looked down at the Wen Jiàn in his hand, but his eyes were cold, only his heart was beating unusually happily, he almost used all his strength to control his hands not to tremble, more than ten percent of the shares, much better than he imagined, he was very clear about the shock of the Wen family after that, and he was also very clear about the weight of these shares in his hands, it can be said that what he was holding in his hands at this time was the lifeblood of the Wen family in the future.
"Well, you're doing a great job. Alex, no one noticed that you took the shares for me, right? Zheng Jue raised his head and looked at the somewhat excited man opposite, but there was a faint cold light in his eyes.
Alex's expression was sluggish when he heard this, and his face, which was still a little excited, instantly calmed down: "Don't worry, I remember what you told me before, on the side of Wenli Fund and Zhaoyang Real Estate, you are just an anonymous shareholder, and you will not let others know." ”
Zheng Jue nodded slightly after hearing this, and then grabbed the contract in his hand, and a sneer gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth, in the eyes of Zhou Chengan and Han Jin, he could only drink soup with them with such a net worth, but he wanted to tear out a piece of meat from these two people's mouths.
Alex looked at Zheng Jue's undisguised appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little cold behind him, and finally couldn't make the heartless description he had before, and his expression was a little stiff for a while.
Zheng Jue naturally wouldn't miss the change in Alex's expression, but he didn't say much, just patted Alex's shoulder lightly and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, Alex, I will never forget what you did for me." ”
Alex pulled the corners of his mouth a little stiffly, but he became more and more cautious in his heart, Zheng Jue has vision and courage, he must be careful in the future.
Zheng Jue sent him away after seeing Alex, to put it mildly, in fact, it can't be regarded as Zheng Jue sending him out, because in Zheng Jue's opinion, Alex is almost a bit of a desert and fled, but this is not important to Zheng Jue, he knows Alex's personality, this person looks shrewd, but in fact, he doesn't remember to eat, and now it doesn't look right, but I'm afraid that he will change back in two days.
**
After Alex left, Zheng Jue lay in the house for a while, and finally waited until four o'clock in the afternoon, when Susie sent a car to pick him up.
When Zheng Jue arrived at the Wen family's mansion, it was 5:50 in the afternoon, and the appointment with Wen Huaan was 6 o'clock.
Sure enough, seeing that Zheng Jue came a little early, the expression on Wen Huaan's face softened a little, and greeted him with a smile: "But I finally invited you, a busy man, Ah Jue, your aunt is waiting for you in the house." ”
Zheng Jue followed Wen Hua'an into the living room, and sure enough, as soon as he entered the door, he saw a middle-aged woman wearing a purple cheongsam sitting on the sofa, and stood up when he came in.
Zheng Jue looked at the middle-aged woman with soft eyebrows and eyes in front of her, and finally connected her with the warm smile Aunt Lin Ru more than ten years ago, after so many years, she has changed so much.
"Ah Jue, after many years, you have also grown up." Lin Ru smiled very gently.
Zheng Jue was in a trance for a moment, he looked at Lin Ru's smile, as if he had returned to the small living room of their house more than ten years ago, the daylight was soft and warm, his father and Wen Huaan sat aside to discuss business, and his mother brought out the freshly made soufflé with Lin Ru, smiling and shouting him not to mess around.
He had never forgotten such a scene for so many years, even the sweet and creamy aroma of soufflé had been spreading on the tip of his nose all these years, accompanying him through the darkest and most painful years of his life, allowing him to earn a ray of light even if he fell into hell, making him always retain a sense of hope, making him feel as if he could grasp something with just a stretch of his hand, grasping his mother's smile, grasping his father's seemingly stern rebuke.5./books/35/35157/
The blackened villain begs to be let go.
But at this time, when he stood in the luxurious hall of the Wen family, he really felt that he could not go back, and all the happiness and innocence of his life were completely gone with that disaster.
Zheng Jue regained his clarity in an instant, and he used the shrewdest side of his businessman to weave an impeccable and proper smile, and said softly: "Aunt Wen, thank you for the invitation. ”
Lin Ru's originally gentle smile suddenly stagnated, and her expression collapsed at a speed that could be discerned by the naked eye, and there was almost a trace of sadness in her eyes, as if she was going to cry out in the next moment, but in the end, she couldn't help it, she lowered her eyes slightly, and said in a low voice: "Don't be so polite, I am an old friend with your parents, and you are now in this class, presumably they are also very pleased." When she said this, a trace of shame flashed on her face, and her tone trembled a little, and she almost didn't dare to look up at Zheng Jue.
Zheng Jue's heart chilled, it seems that this kind-faced Aunt Wen also knows, knows how his father died back then.
As soon as Lin Ru's words were finished, Zheng Jue didn't have time to talk, but Wen Huaan stepped forward from behind: "Okay, Ah Jue is here for the first time, no matter how happy you are, you don't have to put on such a face." After speaking, he glanced at Zheng Jue with a smile and said, "Your aunt has made a lot of your favorite meals, let's go, don't let her down." ”
Zheng Jue nodded with a smile, but he sneered in his heart, sure enough, the businessman is the best person in the world, and this Aunt Wen's rank is still far from Wen Huaan.
Zheng Jue followed Wen Hua'an into the restaurant, looking at the food on that table, it was really what he used to like to eat the most when he was young, but after experiencing a gloomy life after the age of twelve, he no longer had the qualifications to be picky, from that time on, in his eyes, there was no more likes and dislikes, only being able to eat or not being full.
Zheng Jue sat down with a smile, greeted Wen Hua'an politely and politely, and praised Lin Ru's cooking skills from time to time, but Lin Ru's eyes never raised again, in this dinner, she seemed to have completely become an invisible person, and she didn't say a word more.
Wen Huaan was very dissatisfied with her, because Zheng Jue avoided talking about the topics he threw out from beginning to end, in order to bring Zheng Jue's relationship closer, Wen Huaan gestured to Lin Ru with his eyes several times, but Lin Ru didn't seem to see it, and he was silent.
Until the end of dinner, Wen Huaan really had no way to retreat, and finally had to give up his ridiculous self-esteem, taking advantage of Lin Ru's time to clean up the tableware, invited Zheng Jue to the living room, took out the red wine he had treasured for many years, and personally poured Zheng Jue a glass of wine.
Zheng Jue was slightly surprised, but he made a particularly embarrassed look on his face, and said crampedly: "Uncle Wen, what are you doing, you are an elder, even if you want to pour wine, I should pour it for you." He didn't expect that Wen Huaan would be able to bend and stretch like this.
Wen Hua'an hooked his lips a little reluctantly, and his face showed a little bitterness: "Ah Jue, you must have heard about Wen's affairs in the past few days, Ming people don't say secret words, I know that you have a very good relationship with Zhou Shao and Han Shao, and I want to ask you to help make peace, if it really comes to the point of losing both, it is outsiders who take advantage." Now he no longer wants to win over Zheng Jue.
Zheng Jue just smiled when he heard this, and there was a hint of inscrutable in his eyes: "Uncle Wen, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I listen to Zhou Shao's meaning, as if you sinned against him before, you also know that Zhou Shao and Han Shao have the best relationship, I'm just a newcomer, how can I compare to the relationship between the two of them, I'm afraid this thing is not easy to do!" ”
Wen Huaan thought well, he wanted the white wolf with empty gloves, how could he let him get his wish.
Wen Hua'an listened to the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, Zheng Jue, this kid, is so slippery, but he is so slippery Wen Hua'an is a lot more relieved, in his opinion, how can there be a person in this world who is not greedy, especially a businessman, if he is not greedy, he must have a big plan.
"Ah Jue, don't worry, although my uncle is old, he still understands some truths, I heard that you like the land in the north of the city, I just have a friend who is in charge of this piece, and we can make an appointment to have a tea together when we have time." Wen Huaan finally regained his confidence and smiled calmly.
Zheng Jue looked at his smiling face, his eyes were faintly bright, but he made an extremely happy look on his face, and said with a smile: "Then please Uncle Wen." ”
