Chapter 455: Ultimatum

That night, Li Xiang was poured a lot of wine by his colleagues, and it was Yang Jing who sent him back, and when Jin Zhu was waiting for him to sleep, he listened to him chant Li Pujia's name several times, as if it was related to the bidding meeting, but unfortunately, Li Xiang fell asleep quickly, and Jin Zhu didn't ask anything. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Early the next morning, Jin Zhu was going to rush to the school for the exam, Li Xiang couldn't wake up from a hangover, and Jin Zhu still couldn't find anything.

Coming out of the examination room, she took out her mobile phone and was about to call Li Xiang, when she swiped the screen and found that there were five missed calls inside, one of which was called three times, every half an hour, and the last time a text message came.

"Hello, I'm Xia who has had a relationship with you in the United States, I have something I want to trouble you to help me, if it's convenient, can you meet and talk, by the way, I've already returned to the imperial capital."

Jin Zhu looked at this text message and felt a little strange, she remembered that this Miss Xia had met at Mr. Smith's auction that day, at that time, this Miss Xia and Thomson were standing together, and they seemed to know each other very well, Jin Zhu remembered that when they left, she remembered that she had taken a picture of a gold bead embroidered purse.

It's been three months, what will happen to her?

After hesitating for a moment, Jin Zhu sent a text message back.

The other party's phone call came quickly, saying that he was in a hurry and wanted to meet Jinzhu.

Jin Zhu originally wanted to refuse, but suddenly thought that the other party was a friend of Thomson, but she was afraid that this phone number was also asking him to come, and she had to give Thomson some face if she didn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha.

So, Jin Zhu asked her to meet at the café at the main entrance of the school half an hour later.

When Jin Zhu entered the café with her schoolbag on her back, that Miss Xia was already waiting for her elegantly with a coffee cup.

"What's wrong?" Jin Zhu saw the other party smiling and looking at herself, and asked.

"You look very different from that day, today you look lively and youthful, not at all like a married person, of course, I don't mean that you were old-fashioned that day, but that you were very dignified that day, and today are two completely different styles."

"Really? Today is at school, and I am now a student. Jin Zhu smiled and looked at himself.

Today, she wore a long thin black down jacket with a bright red knitted scarf, jeans and snow boots, and a black backpack on her back, typical of a student's outfit.

This is not the point, the point is that Jin Zhu has indeed changed a lot under the influence of Li Xiang in the past few years, and he has been spoiled by him so that his psychological age is getting younger and younger, and he has forgotten his original identity more and more.

"Your husband didn't come? By the way, I forgot to say congratulations to you first. ”

"What's the joy of?" Jin Zhu felt that the other party's words were a little inexplicable.

"At yesterday afternoon's bidding meeting, your husband won such a big project at a young age, isn't it worth congratulating?" Miss Xia smiled playfully.

"How did you know that?"

This news was only announced yesterday afternoon, except for industry insiders, ordinary people will not pay attention to such a small thing, after all, this city is so big, there are many infrastructure projects every year, ordinary people who will care about who designed a house?

Miss Xia hooked the corners of her lips, "My father went to observe this bidding meeting yesterday afternoon, and he would not come forward under normal circumstances for such a trivial matter, but I asked him to come forward yesterday." ”

"You asked your father to come and listen?"

Jin Zhu didn't know exactly what happened to yesterday's bidding meeting, she only knew that Li Xiang chanted the name Li Pujia several times after getting drunk last night, which seemed to be related to yesterday's bidding meeting, and now when she heard the meaning of the other party's words, it seemed that her father would have any impact on yesterday's bidding.

Linked to Li Xiang's drunken talk last night, Jin Zhu felt that he seemed to understand something.

Sure enough, without waiting for Jin Zhu to string things together, the other party spoke.

"Because I have a request for you, I want to send you a big favor first, of course, your husband's ability is also outstanding, my father has a very good impression of your husband, he was very reluctant to pass, and then saw your husband's design and smiled and said that it was worth the trip, but one thing I think you also know, after all, our national conditions are different from the United States, not that you have the ability to get ahead." Miss Xia looked at Jin Zhu frankly.

To her, it seemed like a normal thing.

Without a background and no connections, how easy is it to get ahead?

"May I ask what you want me to do for you?" Jin Zhu couldn't help but be a little curious.

What is the reason why this eldest lady wants to sell such a big face to her?

To be honest, aren't these things supposed to be operated in the dark, how can they be put on the table to talk about?

"My matter is not big, but it is not small or small, it is not difficult for those who will know, but it will not be difficult for those who are difficult."

It turned out that the other party took a fancy to Li Xiang and Jin Zhu's painting skills, and wanted to ask Jin Zhu to help her repair a few paintings.

"Tinkering with paintings?" Jin Zhu became more and more confused.

How could the other party send them such a big favor just to ask her to repair the painting?

There are painters who are more famous than them.

"That's right, I have a few paintings that I have destroyed by me, these paintings are very important to me, I have found several people who will not repair them, I saw your embroidered purse and your wedding dress embroidery at Mr. Smith's house that day, I think you can definitely help me with this, Miss Yang, please."

As soon as Jin Zhu heard that it was related to the purse and the wedding dress, she instinctively wanted to refuse.

"Miss Yang, these paintings are really important to me, my first love and I broke up because of these paintings, I heard that you and your husband have a good relationship, they grew up together, and they must be able to understand my distress." Miss Xia saw Jin Zhu's intention and hurriedly spoke.

"But the problem is, I'm on a night ticket to the U.S., and I'm not going back home for a long time."

Jin Zhu has contacted a librarian at Harvard University for an internship opportunity, and her graduation thesis will be completed in the United States, and then she will return to China to defend it directly at the end of May, so she will not be back for months.

"This is not a problem, you take things to the United States to repair them, I know you should graduate and intern, you won't be too busy, when you make up for it, give me a call at any time, maybe I'm in the United States."

Speaking of which, whether it is Chong Thomson or Chong yesterday afternoon's big favor, Jin Zhu must take over this job.

"Can you see what the painting is?" After Jin Zhu asked, the phone rang.

It was Li Xiang who came to pick her up from school.

"Your husband is here? In this way, what time do you have a plane, I will directly find someone to send you to the airport at night. ”

"That's not appropriate, is it? I haven't seen your paintings yet. "Jin Zhu has always been cautious in his work.

"What paintings?" Li Xiang walked in, sat next to Jin Zhu and recognized that the woman opposite was Miss Xia, who had a relationship in the United States, and the reason why he remembered this Miss Xia was naturally because the other party was a friend of Thomson, and he also bought a purse embroidered by Jin Zhu at a high price.

Jin Zhu briefly said the matter, and of course he didn't forget to mention Miss Xia's great affection.

Li Xiang guessed that Miss Xia's father should be the major general, no wonder he felt a little inexplicable, even if the other party admired his design, there was no need to speak before Li Pujia, right? This is not clear, just to make Li Xiang recognize this favor?

But then again, Li Xiang also didn't understand what kind of paintings would make the other party send such a big favor?

"You don't have too much psychological burden, to be honest, I liked you when I was in the United States, two people with such good looks are so talented, everyone wants to make such friends, you must know that there are not many people who can be appreciated and remembered by Thomson."

As soon as the other party said this, Jin Zhu was much more relieved, the person introduced by Thomson must know the roots, and it was just a matter of repairing a few paintings, which should not be difficult for her.

Besides, since the other party's father can suppress Li Pujia, presumably the position must be above Li Pujia, and now that Li Xiang has taken over this project, Jin Zhu doesn't want to offend her, who knows that there will be no day when he asks for the other party in the future?

"It's okay, that's it, the airport is too far away and inconvenient, you send things to the door of the red leaf community at seven o'clock in the evening, we will leave for the airport at that time, but I said ugly things ahead, if I am sure that I can't repair it after I have seen it, please find another Gao Ming." Jin Zhu weighed it and said.

"This is natural." The other party agreed.

Coming out of the café, the two got into the car, and Jin Zhu had the opportunity to ask Li Xiang about yesterday afternoon.

"What does Ms. Li want to do? We've all backed down to this point, what else does she want to do? Jin Zhu had a hunch of fire coming out of his heart.

"Zhuzhu, don't be angry, I already called Li Ruizhong before I came to pick you up, and asked him to tell everyone in the Li family, next time if this kind of thing happens, I will directly announce my life experience on Weibo, and let them weigh it themselves."

Li Xiang was also angry with Li Pujia, he didn't think that the other party wanted to pull him to hold him so high.

Also, he let go of these grievances early in the morning, but the other party came to pester him again and again, since he couldn't hide from it, he didn't hide, he wanted to see who was afraid of whom.

It is said that Li Ruizhong was also shocked when he received this call from Li Xiang, he still knows the temperament of this aunt very well, and naturally he will not believe that his aunt is sending any kindness.

But he couldn't solve this matter, and after thinking about it again, he went to see Li Fangfang in person.

Li Fang was furious when he found out, he couldn't recognize Li Xiang's son, he felt that he couldn't bear Li Xiang, but his sister still had to bite the mouse and meddle in things, which not only stepped on Li Xiang's bottom line, but also stepped on his bottom line.

Li Fangfang just picked up his mobile phone and was about to call Li Pujia, but Li Ruizhong stopped him and gave him an idea.

In the afternoon of this day, Li Fangfang put down all the entertainment and returned home early, because the old man had just returned from the United States these days, and Li Pujia's family of three would come here to eat.

When Li Pujia and Yuan Yuan entered the door, Li Fang called both of them to the study.

"Second brother, I know what you want to say, don't be obsessed, everything I do is for your good." Li Pujia spoke first.

"Fart, is this for my good? Do you know what that kid said? He gave us an ultimatum. Li Fangfang said Li Xiang's warning.

"What the hell is going on?" Yuan Yuan asked.

Li Yifang told Li Pujia about going to see Jin Zhu and Li Xiang, and also told what happened yesterday afternoon.

"I now formally warn the two of you, no one is allowed to harass that child again, whether I recognize him or not, he is the son of my Li side, I will never allow anyone to bully him, and, you two also remember for me, don't make any small moves behind my back, you really forced him to make his life story public, my political future will come to an end, I don't care, it's a big deal to go back to be my painter, do you want this family and this marriage, you two weigh it up yourself, during this time, I am also tired."

Li Fangfang reversed his passivity with unprecedented strength, he used to want to seize his political future too much, so he was held by Yuan Yuan, in fact, in Li Ruizhong's words, take a step back, and they have nothing to hold him.

Because the last thing he wants to lose his political future is Yuan Yuan and Li Pujia, Yuan Yuan doesn't really want to divorce him, she still has to consider her own future and her son's future.

And the same is true for Li Pujia, she is such a good-looking person, if such a scandal is going to be reported in her mother's family, how can she gain a foothold in her husband's family? Also, if my brother really resigns to become a painter in a fit of anger, he may not lose anything, and it may become a good talk in the art world in a few years, but the mess thrown at them will not be easy to clean up.

"Second brother, don't you think about Xiaozhao's feelings at all?" Li Pujia glanced at Yuan Yuan, whose face was like ashes, and asked for her.

"If I hadn't taken into account Xiaozhao's feelings, this family would have been scattered a long time ago. Why don't you two understand it until now, that kid doesn't want to recognize me at all, to tell you the truth, Dad wanted to leave him two paintings, but he refused, just didn't want to have anything to do with us, but the clay man also has three points of earth, we don't accept him, it's just that, how can we frame him again and again? ”

"Who framed him? I'm helping him, if he doesn't have me, can he win this project? Li Pujia refused to admit her original intention.

"Fart, I don't know who you are? I wonder, how did you sit in this position today, so short-sighted, so extreme, yes, you have a little power in your hands, but don't you want to think about it, the way of the world is the same as before? Now that the Internet information is so developed, not to mention that he is still studying in the United States, as long as he publishes these things on the Internet, can you afford this consequence or can I afford it? ”

These words were naturally not said to Li Pujia alone, but they could be regarded as indirectly teaching Yuan Yuan a lesson, making Li Fang spit out a long-hidden turbidity. (To be continued.) )
