14.Chapter 14
At the beginning of the meeting, it was nothing more than the speeches of leaders from all walks of life, Pei Xinyang's mind was not on the stage at all, and in the man in the middle seat of the first row, he didn't quite understand what kind of mentality he was out of, and he paid special attention to that man, maybe because he felt the sense of oppression among his peers, maybe because of the casual staring at each other, maybe just because of the aura collision in the dark.
There are seniors in the industry around him who are actually talking about him.
"Cheng Zhaohua didn't come this year, but he sent a young man, and I don't know what it is, I've never seen it."
"I heard that Cheng Zhaohua's physical condition is not very good, I don't know if the news is accurate this time."
"In this way, it may be the successor, and Zhaohua's stock price has fluctuated again."
"I estimate that ** is not far from ten, probably because the news has been temporarily blocked."
"But I'm so young, I haven't heard of it in the circle, if I just parachute into Zhaohua like this, the whole circle will shake, how many people are staring at Zhaohua."
"Could it be Cheng Zhaohua's son?"
"But I heard that Cheng Zhaohua's son drowned while studying abroad."
"It's a pity that Zhaohua has no successor."
Pei Xinyang looked at the back of the man's head, frowning and pondering. He has worked in a foreign company and is in the position of director, which is already a leader among his peers. Zhaohua once maintained the position of the leading boss in the industry, if this young man really parachuted into Zhaohua, it was really the pride of the sky that should not be underestimated. It is possible to deal with each other in the future.
At the buffet party afterward, many people, like Pei Xinyang, wanted to say a few words to the representative of Zhaohua to explore the friendship between the virtual and the real, but the man said a few words to the organizer and left. He appeared in a low-key manner and left the scene in a low-key manner, but he attracted everyone's attention from beginning to end.
The car was speeding on the coastal road, Cheng Ziyi opened the window of the back seat, the salty sea breeze was blowing on his cheeks, and he finally felt that some of the irritability in his heart was blown away. The winter wind was cold, and the driver felt the biting cold in the front row, and he didn't dare to say anything, so he didn't have anything to say, "Master, do you want to go back to the hotel directly?" ”
The back seat was silent for a while, and Cheng Ziyi said slowly: "No, go to the airport." ”
"Airport?"
"You go back to the hotel, pack up my things, and go back to City B at the original time, I'll take the first step."
"In such a hurry? It's okay, Mr. Cheng is also looking forward to your homecoming. ”
Hopefully? Cheng Ziyi lowered his head to look at the time, noncommittal.
As soon as he arrived in City B, Fang Qin's call came in, Cheng Chutian looked at him frowning, and leaned over to look, "Master, it seems that you want to go home first?" ”
Cheng Ziyi picked up the phone, and Fang Qin's tone was a little heavy, "Your father asked you to come home first, you better forget it, let's talk about it when we come back." ”
Hanging up, he threw the driver out of the car and got into the driver's seat himself.
Cheng Chutian was on the side, grabbed the seat belt, and said tremblingly: "Master, you drive slowly, you must slow down." The car had just undergone surgery. ”
Cheng Ziyi glanced at him and nodded, "Okay." ”
But when the car drove out of the airport parking lot and into the highway, the man forgot what he had promised him to drive slower, stepped on the accelerator, and the off-road vehicle accelerated with a whizz, running out of the feeling of a sports car.
Cheng Chutian looked at his cold side face, and he didn't dare to come out.
He slowly slowed down when he got out of the highway, and suddenly asked Cheng Chutian: "How are you staying these days?" ”
"Very good, my sister's cooking is delicious, but I'm a little tired of eating beef every day. I listened to my master and didn't go anywhere every day, and my sister waited for her after work, and I woke her up every day. ”
"Well, well done. Did you finish writing the program? ”
"I'm done, I'm waiting for the master to review it." Stretched out his hand and handed Cheng Ziyi a piece of chocolate, "Welcome the master back." ”
"It's better to be like this."
Take it and put it in the center console box.
"Every time my sister gets a chocolate, she eats it right away." It's really face-giving!
"How many times did you give?"
"Well, I don't remember." Cheng Chutian looked serious and thoughtful.
Cheng Ziyi nodded, it seems that the two get along well.
Ning Siyin got off work and bought vegetables as usual to go back, because Cheng Chutian had been complaining for several days and didn't want to eat beef anymore, in addition to beef today, she also specially bought the ribs he likes to eat. Why can't you just buy ribs? Because Cheng Ziyi doesn't know when he will come back, no matter which day he comes back, there will be beef he likes to eat on the dinner table.
But on this day, she saw Cheng Chutian's message in the crack of the opposite door.
"Sister, my brother is going home tonight, I'm going home for dinner, I won't accompany you!"
He's back? When? She didn't know at all, he didn't give her any news. She was suddenly a little discouraged, and a little angry, didn't he know that she was getting ready to welcome him home every day? Didn't he know that she bought his favorite beef every day?
Yes, he doesn't know, the favored person always has no fear, he doesn't need to tell himself his news, she doesn't have a position, and he doesn't need to ask her to do anything every day, she does it herself.
But there is still a little expectation, after all, she told him that she would buy vegetables and wait for him, what she said would never break her word, even if the return date was undecided, she still prepared every day. But he really didn't care at all.
Stuffing the note into her pocket, she took out the key to open the door of her house and looked at the ingredients in her hand, "It seems that tomorrow the teacher will be able to eat a boxed lunch again." ”
The car drove into the rose garden, and just stopped the square piano to welcome the door, "Xiaotian, you go into the house first, I have something to tell your brother." ”
"Got it, Mom."
Cheng Chutian turned around three times and entered the door. Fang Qin pulled Cheng Ziyi to the pavilion, "The organizer said that you will come back as soon as the dinner party starts, I pinched that you will be like this, your father is very angry, you haven't seen him for more than half a year, he is not in good health, you can bear with me, you know no!" ”
"Except for work, I will rely on him for everything else."
Fang Qin hated that iron could not become steel, "You dare to say that you work, you don't do your job all day long, if your father has any three long and two short, I see how you regret going." ”
"No, it won't." His tone was firm, "My father has been plagued for thousands of years, and he will be fine." As he spoke, he had already left and walked home.
"You!" Fang Qin was angry, she never controlled the piece of meat that fell from her body.
His legs are long and his steps are fast, she was so stunned that he had already entered the door, Fang Qin finally walked behind him, "How are you getting along with Xiaoyin?" What a good girl, I've seen you, at what age are you supposed to be a good partner. ”
Cheng Ziyi's footsteps stopped, and Fang Qin continued: "Don't always have a black face, no matter how good your temper is, you will be wiped out, if you think it is appropriate, I will tell you and say peace......"
"Dad." Cheng Ziyi's voice was cold and indifferent.
Fang Qin saw that Cheng Zhaohua had already come downstairs, so he stood in the atrium, hurriedly walked over, and said angrily: "Why did you come down without a coat." He asked the maid to turn up the heat.
Cheng Zhaohua looked at his son, who had not seen him for half a year, standing in front of him in a straight suit, and the anger he had stored had disappeared a lot, but he still flicked his sleeves angrily and turned around, walked to the sofa and sat down. Fang Qin took the tea brought by the servant, put it on the coffee table, poured him a cup, and then beckoned his son to come and sit down, trying to ease the atmosphere.
"I still know that when I come back, I'm not dead yet, so don't worry." The tone of Cheng Zhaohua's first sentence was not very friendly.
"If you talk calmly, why did you get so energetic from the beginning?" Fang Qin also acted as a peacemaker.
Cheng Zhaohua snorted softly, picked up the teacup, and didn't even look at his son. Cheng Ziyi sat down at the other end, and the maid routinely served him coffee.
Cheng Zhaohua's eyes glanced over, "I know all the unhealthy foreign things, I don't know what I'm doing in the apartment all day long, I don't know what to do on the Internet all day long, and I don't know what to do on the Internet." ”
"What's the right thing?"
"It's the right thing to come back and help me! After working hard all my life, do you want me to give my Zhaohua to others? It's just that you don't let me worry, if Ziyue is still here, can I still beg you? If you hadn't ...... back then"
"Old man!" Fang Qin dragged his arm and interrupted his words, this excitement, the words were biased, and sure enough, Cheng Ziyi's face changed instantly, and a gloomy aura enveloped him, feeling that he was about to be frozen by him as soon as he got closer.
"Ziyi finally came back, or came back from the summit instead of you, let's not talk about these things for now, have a good meal, and speak slowly, don't worry," Fang Qin sighed softly in her heart, turned her head and asked Cheng Ziyi, "Did you see Xiaoyin?" Cheerful and generous girls, how do you get along? ”
"See."
"Who?" It sounds like he is talking about his son's lifelong events, but Cheng Zhaohua can't help but ask if he doesn't wait to see him.
"It's Dong Lanqing's daughter, does Dong Lanqing remember? A teacher in our Academy of Fine Arts, who teaches oil painting, her daughter is very clever and cute, I like it a lot, and now I live opposite Ziyi's apartment, this child stays at home all day and has nowhere to meet girls, Lan Qing wants to find a house, so I will rent it to her. ”
Cheng Zhaohua nodded, and seemed to approve of his wife's idea, "That's fine, the girl from the scholarly family is gentle and quiet, but it is suitable for our family." ”
Gentle and tranquil? Cheng Ziyi's mind came to the image of her plotting to wear his white shirt, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook up a little.
However, "she is not for me." ”
Fang Qin was a little irritable, "Such a good girl, what else do you want to pick, what do you want to pick when you have nothing to do all day?" ”
Cheng Ziyi had already gotten up, "I'll go up and see Xiaotian first." ”
"Xiaotian is much more worry-free than you, don't take Xiaotian badly, you shouldn't have let you read any computer in the first place!" Fang Qin was chattering behind him, he didn't respond, he didn't look back, and went straight upstairs.
He stopped at the corner of the stairs, his arm holding the handrail shaking.
"It would be nice if Ziyue was still here......"
Cheng Zhaohua's voice was not loud, Xu was hanging his head and sighing, but Cheng Ziyi, who had not yet walked upstairs, heard it really well.
Dragging heavy steps, walking up, his eyes could no longer see what was in front of him, and instead, Cheng Ziyue's pale and puffy face, the turbulent tsunami, and his smiling face before departure......
"You like extreme sports so much, brother, I have to support and support me, I can't keep up with you playing parkour and mountains, and I'm still a good surfer!"
"What are you afraid of, my brother is not afraid, what am my brother afraid of!"
"Let's go, we'll meet here in half an hour!"
Without convergence, there will be no convergence again in this life. The pale and swollen corpse and the churning tsunami have always become Cheng Ziyi's nightmare in the middle of the night, and on that day every year, he will appear in Cancun, and sit on the beach where they meet all day, hanging in vain, not knowing if he can be forgiven.
Last year, when he saw the girl gradually being swallowed by the waves, he felt his heart sob, grabbed the surfboard and rushed out, he didn't know who it was, whether it was worth his risk, he just felt that if that person died, there might be one more person in this world who would feel guilty like him for the rest of his life.
dragged her ashore, and he realized that it was her.
Fortunately, he was saved.
"Master?"
"Huh?" Cheng Chutian stood in front of him, shaking his hands, and then he came back to his senses, "Call brother at home." ”
"Oh, brother, don't you call your sister when you come back, she misses you so much. It's true! ”
Cheng Ziyi's hand was touching the silent mobile phone in his trouser pocket, he was silent for a while, then picked up the phone, "Well, listen to you, call," just about to dial and pause, "Why don't you go back to the apartment?" ”
