Chapter 0167: The Huang Family's Strange Reaction
Entering the lobby, Huang Bo and Zhou Zhe took an elevator, but Ling Xiao was arranged by the bodyguard to take another elevator.
The bodyguard pressed the number button on the thirty-eighth floor, and the elevator slowly went up.
"Dude, can you tell me where Chairman Huang is?" Ling Xiao tentatively probed the tunnel.
The bodyguard stared at Ling Xiao, "Didn't Chairman Huang take another elevator up?" Chairman Huang's office is also on the 38th floor, and you will be able to meet him later. ”
Ling Xiao said: "No, I'm asking Huang Zhiqiang Chairman Huang, where is he?" ”
The bodyguard was silent for a moment before he said, "I don't know what to do." ”
"Are you recuperating at home?" Ling Xiao asked.
The bodyguard suddenly made a straight face, "I said, what's the matter with you?" Didn't I tell you that I don't know the way? Why do you still ask me? ”
His tone and attitude made Ling Xiao very uncomfortable, and Huang Bo's attitude of first hot and then cold suddenly appeared in Ling Xiao's mind, and his heart was even more uncomfortable. When the elevator went up to the twentieth floor, he even wanted to stop the elevator and leave the Pujing Building.
"I haven't even opened my mouth to borrow money, Huang Bo is this kind of unwelcome attitude, if I open my mouth to borrow a thousand or eight million, he won't turn his face with me? Hey, people nowadays, it's too realistic. Ling Xiao said secretly in his heart, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He was uncomfortable, he was angry, but he also knew that he couldn't just leave. Integrity and face are important, but the development of Shennu Pharmaceutical is even more important. The villagers of the Goddess Village are still counting on getting rich with him and living a good life. There is also Nie Tianqi, at the beginning of the construction of the Shennu Pharmaceutical Factory, he not only gave financial allocation, but also made a guarantee and borrowed money from the bank, so he felt that if he turned around and left now, he would be sorry for the group of simple and kind villagers in Shennu Village, and sorry for Nie Tianqi's expectation and trust!
"Well, a man's knees, when they should be straight, they must be straight, and when they should be bent, they must be bent down, today, for the sake of the goddess medicine, for the goddess village and Brother Nie, and for the sake of many people who trust me, I will bend my knees down." Thinking like this, the depression and bad luck in Ling Xiao's heart were swept away.
When you are depressed, when you encounter setbacks, you might as well think about it from a different angle, and it will feel much better. Ling Xiao, who lost his parents since he was a child, learned this very early.
The elevator stopped on the thirty-eighth floor.
Under the leadership of the bodyguard, Ling Xiao came to the lounge.
The bodyguard opened the closet.
Huang Bo's wardrobe has a lot of high-end clothes, suits, shirts and casual clothes, but his clothes are shorter for Ling Xiao, and he can wear them, but they look funny. After all, he is taller and much stronger than Huang Bo.
"Is there a bigger one? You don't have to wear a shirt, a T-shirt is fine. Ling Xiao said to the bodyguard on the side.
The bodyguard said: "This is the chairman's lounge, only his clothes." If you don't dislike it, I have a colleague who is about the same size as you, and I'll ask him if he has the right clothes. ”
"Thank you very much." Ling Xiao said.
"You stay here, don't move around." The bodyguard admonished.
Ling Xiao, who was naked, spread out his hands, "Where can I go like this?" ”
The bodyguard left the break room.
Ling Xiao then took a shirt from the closet that he had just tried on, and walked out of the lounge while dressing up. He wouldn't be so honest in the lounge, where everything he saw, everything he felt, there was a strange aura everywhere. He wanted to know what was going on in the road, and he couldn't get anything by staying in the break room.
Outside the door, the back of the bodyguard who had gone to fetch his clothes had just disappeared at the end of the hallway.
The hallway was silent, and there was no one to be seen. Standing at the door of the lounge, Ling Xiao didn't even have a clue, he secretly said in his heart: "This Pujing Building is the headquarters of the Huang family's living enterprise, I want to ask Huang Zhiqiang's whereabouts here, who should I ask?" ”
Those bodyguards obviously can't be asked, they are all Huang Bo's people. The people in charge here are either people from the Huang family, or people related to the Huang family, they don't know the details of the other party, so they rush to ask, I'm afraid that as soon as he turns around, Huang Bo will know about it.
At this moment, an aunt pushing a cleaning cart walked slowly over here.
Ling Xiao's heart moved, and he turned around and returned to the lounge. He swept the newspaper and teacup from the coffee table onto the carpet and returned to the door. The cleaning lady had just passed by the door of the lounge.
Ling Xiao said, "Auntie, please clean up here." ”
"Very good, sir." The cleaning lady followed and pushed the cleaning cart into the lounge.
She was very polite and respectful to Ling Xiao, that is, she knew that the people who could rest in this lounge could not be ordinary people, and she didn't dare to slack off at all. Once in the lounge, she knelt on the carpet to clean up the stains and debris from the carpet.
"Auntie, can I ask you something?" Ling Xiao tentatively probed the tunnel.
"You're welcome, sir, what do you want to ask?" The cleaning lady was very respectful and polite.
Her respect and obedience are exactly what Ling Xiao wants, he said: "That's the case, I am very good friends with Chairman Huang Zhiqiang Huang, I came to him for something very important, but I don't know where Lu Dao is, can you tell me where he is?" ”
"This, I don't know." The cleaning lady, who had been calm, suddenly became nervous.
"It's a very simple question, what are you nervous about?" Ling Xiao stared closely at the cleaning lady.
"I don't know what to say, don't ask me." The cleaning lady sped up the cleaning and could tell that she wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.
"Is he at home?" Ling Xiao asked.
"Please, sir, don't ask me." The cleaning lady was even more nervous.
"What's going on?" Ling Xiao didn't really want to ask her like this, but everything that happened in front of him was so strange that he couldn't control his curiosity.
At this moment, the bodyguard who had left earlier walked in, and he glared at the cleaning lady fiercely, "You don't need to clean up here, go down." ”
The cleaning lady quickly stood up and left in a panic with the tool cart.
"Mr. Ling, what are you doing here?" The bodyguard said in an uncomfortable tone, "What do you want to do?" ”
Ling Xiao said, "What do I want to do? I came here to meet Huang Zhiqiang, which is a very normal thing and a very simple thing. Huang Zhiqiang is my friend and my patient, I am worried about his condition, I want to see him, is this a complicated matter? I'm just asking where he is, are you so nervous? What are you hiding from? ”
A series of questions, the bodyguard didn't answer any of them, he just handed Ling Xiao a neatly folded shirt in his hand, "Mr. Ling, this is the clothes you need, try it, if it doesn't fit, I'll ask someone to buy you a new one." ”
Ling Xiao took the clothes from his hand, "You can get out of the way." ”
The bodyguard left the lounge, but stopped at the door. He stood in the doorway, and had no intention of leaving.
Ling Xiao changed into the shirt brought to him by the bodyguard, and the size of the clothes was also appropriate. After changing his clothes, he sat on the couch and watched TV. The bodyguard standing at the door was guarding the door like a dog, and if he left the lounge to ask anyone about Huang Zhiqiang's news, there would definitely be no result.
Although he was watching TV, Ling Xiao didn't know what was being played on the TV, his thinking was like a crumpled silk thread, and he couldn't sort it out clearly.
A very, very simple thing, why would it be so complicated?
Just such a question, Ling Xiao couldn't figure it out.
Ling Xiao waited in the lounge for an hour before Huang Bo appeared at the door of the lounge.
"Doctor Ling, I'm sorry to keep you waiting." A kind smile appeared on Huang Bo's face.
However, Ling Xiao didn't feel the slightest kindness or kindness from his smile. He got up from the couch, "It's okay, I don't have anything to do anyway, the TV show is pretty good, I don't think I've waited long." ”
"Sit down, let's sit down and talk." Huang Bo also sat on the sofa and said, "What to drink?" Wine or whiskey? ”
"No, I don't need anything." Ling Xiao said.
"What else are you polite to me?" Huang Bo kept the smile on his face.
"That security guard is fine, is he?" Ling Xiao changed the subject, "I was angry at the time, and my hand was a little heavy. ”
"It's okay, he's woken up, and I've sent him to the hospital for treatment. It's the little things, you don't have to take it personally. I learned about the situation, he was the first to act, and I don't blame you for this. If you want, I can fire him and get him out of here. Huang Bo said.
Ling Xiao shook his head, "It's not necessary, keep him." ”
"How long do you want to stay in Shanghai this time?" Huang Bo asked.
"It won't be long, I'm done. I came to see Uncle Huang, by the way, how is he doing now? Ling Xiao looked at Huang Bo.
Huang Bo was silent for a moment before saying, "My dad, my dad is now being treated in Europe. ”
"Getting treatment in Europe?" Ling Xiao said in surprise.
Huang Bo sighed, "Yes, but I'm not saying that Doctor Ling's medical skills are not good, it's just that our family discussed it and still felt that we should rely on modern medicine, so that the certainty of cure would be greater." My dad himself agreed, no, it didn't take long. On the European side, there are very good doctors and the most advanced equipment in the world today. So, Dr. Ling, don't worry about my dad's condition anymore. ”
Is that the truth of the matter? From Huang Bo's mouth, Ling Xiao should believe it, but he didn't know what was going on, he smelled a trace of something unusual. He didn't believe Huang Bo's words, at least not completely.
