Five. prelude
"These accidents happened around the time we moved, so I wondered if we were in trouble. Not only that, but even our new home seems to have something wrong, and there have been so many times that the sound in the living room has inexplicably sounded; The TV is turned on inexplicably; And when I fell asleep, I always felt the sound of walking around on the ceiling, but I was pretty sure there could never be anyone upstairs, because it was a two-story villa, and our bedroom was on the second floor, and we were pretty sure there wasn't an attic upstairs, so it was unlikely that anything or someone was hiding on it...... These conditions have driven us crazy. ”
The members of Zhu Meng's family are relatively simple, and his son Zhu Jiayou has graduated from college and entered the company to work, but because he has his own life circle, most of the time he stays in his apartment and occasionally goes home to live. In this exhibition area, Zhu Jiayou is in charge of safety duties; Daughter Zhu Jiaxuan is still studying, studying at a university in a famous city in the south, and only comes back every winter and summer vacation. So most of the time, there are only two of them in the family. I hired housekeeping staff, but I only asked them to clean the room and cook on weekends.
"By the way, you've only recently moved to a new home, have you? I heard that it was a relatively upscale villa area. "I hesitated and said that it was a villa that had already been opened, and it stands to reason that there would be no new homes for sale now.
"It was a second-hand house, and we saved money on renovations, and if we hadn't received such a letter, we wouldn't have moved to that place. After all, we are still used to the old house we have lived in. There was a hint of helplessness on Zhu Meng's face. He was clearly unhappy that he was forced to move.
In fact, it has caused great distress in their lives. A series of accidents made Tang Yin's nerves very sensitive, and she couldn't sleep well at night. Just the night before, she got up in the middle of the night to drink water, and inadvertently opened the curtains, and saw that not far downstairs, a sneaky figure was holding something in her hand facing their building. Just as Tang Yin opened the curtains, the man quickly left. Not only that, but Zhu Meng's driver also reminded him. Recently, an unknown person stopped in front of his car. It seemed to be remembering his license plate number, which made him mumble even more.
"I'm not sure if it's our rival or who we're all looking at, anyway. There's always nothing wrong with being careful. So I can only ask you for this matter. Of course. I don't really want this time to be a big deal. After all, I'm still the main person in charge of the company, and if something negative happens, I'm worried about the impact on the company. After all, people like us have always been afraid of trouble. Zhu Meng looked at me with a sincere face.
"Have you ever thought about what to do first?" It's really my turn to be surprised, Zhu Meng and his wife are so different from the rich people I imagined before, others pay special attention to their safety no matter what, but they don't seem to care much. Or rather, they seem reluctant to make their lives too complicated, and the situation they are encountering seems to have made their already fragile nerves more sensitive.
Zhu Meng nodded and said, "By the way, Zhu Jiayou found someone to install a set of automatic alarm equipment, in case someone breaks in, you can call the police." But I can't trust those tech things, after all, they're not human, are they? So I think it's better to leave the rest to you. ”
Zhu Meng left the address of his home and reminded me that I could go there at any time to check the situation, and I could also come to his office at any time. At the same time, I also got a message that after the opening banquet here today, this will become the only office location of Zhu Meng's industry. Although he has no plans to hire bodyguards for his family for the time being, he will try his best to arrange personnel in this building, including the parking lot, to ensure the safety of everyone.
"Speaking of which, you hold an art exhibition here, firstly, to increase the visibility of your property, and the other purpose is to use the art exhibition to not only restrict the people who enter and leave here, but also to conduct security checks on all invited people in an open and honest manner, so as to prevent dangerous people from taking the opportunity to sneak in, right?" Just before the conversation ended, I asked with some hesitation.
"That's right, that's one of my motivations for holding the exhibition at the same time. However, the current situation is a bit unexpected to me, because this art exhibition seems to have attracted a lot of attention, so there are always people trying to find a way to get our invitation, and I heard that there are even scalpers who have even made up the idea of invitations. A bright smile appeared on Zhu Meng's face, he stretched out his hand towards me, shook it twice and said, "No wonder Manzi kept saying that your observation is amazing." You can guess my intentions so quickly, and it seems that I can rest assured for the time being. ”
The banquet continues. As Aunt Man had guessed before, they really invited the first-line star in China, although most of them behaved calmly, but the emotions of some young people were quickly mobilized. When the song that became popular all over the country sounded, I heard a familiar voice echoing it. When I turned my head, I saw Li Dian standing behind us, and it was Ding Yuqin standing next to him, both of whom were formally dressed.
"Why are you here too? Speaking of which...... Aunt Man invited you, right? Li Dian came to me enthusiastically and said helplessly: "Since we came back, it's the first time we've met." I really didn't expect it to be on such an occasion. What about Officer Qin? Why didn't you see him? ”
Turning his head, he saw Tang Yin and Ding Yuqin talking in a whispered voice affectionately. Indeed, the social circle here is so big, and there will always be a time for everyone to meet. Li Dian, on the other hand, didn't seem to intend to end the conversation with me, picked up a glass of champagne from the waiter's plate and handed it to me, and said with a smile: "I don't think you mind if I invite you to have a drink, right?" I'm a little worried, if you are here, will there be any surprises? It's good that it's just you, right? Others ......"
"Are your eyes so big for breathing? Don't see us there? Lin Zi took Leng Ao's arm and appeared behind Li Dian, she has always liked Li Dian very much, not to mention that Li Dian is a little overly enthusiastic about me now, "Why did Master Li come here too?" Haven't you always liked to pretend to be artistic? didn't go around those paintings to see, but what did Sister Fang do? (To be continued.) )
