Chapter 166: The Mystery in the Gift Box
Du Xiaowei and Zhang Aijia, under the leadership of the nanny. Walked into the living room and changed my shoes at the entrance of the door.
Then, when she walked inside, Du Xiaowei's eyes suddenly lit up.
In the living room, the gorgeous crystal pendant, like a huge diamond, illuminates the living room as bright as day. Dark pattern wool carpet, beige expensive sofa, pure black fragrant wood coffee table......
The whole living room, look, gives people a calm and atmospheric feeling.
Wang Debiao, who was drinking tea on the sofa in the living room, saw Du Xiaowei come in. hurriedly got up to greet him: "Ah, Miss Du, a big beauty." We meet again! ”
Du Xiaowei hurriedly looked at Wang Debiao.
Although, I met at the exhibition in Beijing. However, there were many people at that time, and not many impressions were left.
Now it seems that it is really the same as his name, he is tall and big, and he looks more than 1.78 meters. A pair of thick eyebrows and big eyes, sparkling. With a smile on his face, he looks like a person with a bold personality.
So, he hurriedly went up and shook hands with him, and politely replied: "Mr. Wang, I'm so happy to see you!" ”
After shaking hands, Wang Debiao pointed to Zhang Aijia behind her and asked, "Who is this beauty?" ”
Du Xiaowei hurriedly introduced: "This is my friend Zhang Aijia. ”
Wang Debiao hurriedly shook hands with her and praised, "Miss Zhang, I am glad to be there...... Oh, it's still you southern women who are pretty, and they all look like fairies. Your arrival has made my humble house shine! ”
Du Xiaowei smiled embarrassedly: "Mr. Wang, you have won the award." Besides, where are you in a humble house? As soon as I entered, it was like entering the Grand Palace. ”
Wang Debiao smiled honestly and saw Zhang Aijia holding a gift in his hand. So he said, "What are you doing with your gifts?" ”
Du Xiaowei said: "A little Haizhou souvenir, two bottles of wine and a calligraphy and painting are not any gifts. ”
As he spoke, he asked Zhang Aijia to put the things on the table.
Wang Debiao was no longer humble, so he let the seat for tea.
Looking at the calligraphy and painting on the table, Wang Debiao asked curiously: "What kind of calligraphy and painting is that?" I'd love to see it! ”
Du Xiaowei said happily: "Then I'll show you." ”
As he spoke, he picked up the scroll and slowly unfolded it in front of him with Zhang Aijia. As the scroll opened, a bamboo drawing of a gentleman in ink painting exuding a strong atmosphere of brush and ink was presented in front of him.
Wang Debiao stepped forward and looked at it carefully. Although the bamboo on the painting is painted with pen and ink, it is tall and vigorous and lifelike. It shows an awe-inspiring righteousness.
Obviously, this is not an ordinary calligraphy painting, but the work of a famous artist.
In particular, the strong and powerful characters on the painting, "Gentleman Frank", made Wang Debiao feel very satisfied.
He used to be a soldier and believed that bamboo could best reflect the soul and integrity of a soldier. Therefore, he loves bamboo, and often considers himself a gentleman. This painting basically satisfies these wishes.
So, he couldn't put it down when he saw it: "Yes, I like this painting very much!" ”
After speaking, he smiled again and said, "However, if you like it, you like it." However, I can't just take your stuff. ”
Du Xiaowei heard the meaning of his words, so she smiled: "It's okay, even if the contract is not negotiated this time, we can still be friends." As the saying goes, 'business is not benevolent and righteous', so please accept it from Mr. Wang! ”
Wang Debiao continued to refuse, but Du Xiaowei insisted on sending it. Wang Debiao had no choice but to say: "Okay, if you insist on sending it, then let me go here first......"
As he spoke, the cell phone on his desk rang. He had no choice but to put down the painting in his hand, picked up his phone and looked at it, it was still the same number just now. So, he said to Du Xiaowei: "I'm sorry, I'll answer the phone." ”
The call was from Jia Haoming, and he asked Wang Debiao with some dissatisfaction: "Mr. Wang, you invited us to both companies, why do you favor one over the other?" ”
Wang Debiao couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that Jia Haoming was still outside the door. I had to make an excuse and said: "Where, just now in the bathroom, it is indeed a little inconvenient...... Since you're still here, come in! ”
put down the phone and said to the nanny: "Qiuyue, go open the door and let Mr. Jia Haoming of Tengfei Company come in!" ”
Qiu Yue said reluctantly: "Mr. Wang, that person hates to death." Just now, he actually bribed me with money! ”
Wang Debiao was stunned: "Really? ”
Qiu Yue said: "Yes, at first I gave two hundred, and then I gave five hundred, and I was treated as a begging for food." ”
Wang Debiao frowned: "Okay, I know, you go!" ”
Although, he is a businessman. However, he looked down on those who gave and demanded bribes the most. Therefore, he was very dissatisfied with Jia Haoming's approach.
But since he came, he couldn't see him.
Qiu Yue had no choice but to answer and walked to the door. Seeing this, Du Xiaowei hurriedly said, "Mr. Wang, then we won't scratch it......
Of course, she wanted to stay and listen to what they had to say, but she didn't want to embarrass Wang Debiao. Therefore, offer to leave.
Wang Debiao knew what she meant, after all, the two families were rivals, and it would be embarrassing to talk together. So, he nodded: "I'll be the east tomorrow night, how about inviting the two of you to eat together?" ”
Du Xiaowei was stunned, I don't know why he invited two families? But it was inconvenient to ask, so I had to nod and say, "Okay, thank you, Mr. Wang!" ”
Walk to the door, change your shoes and walk out of the villa. I happened to run into the nanny Qiu Yue, leading Jia Haoming and his assistant to come in from outside. So, he said hello to Qiuyue, and left Wang Debiao's house with Zhang Aijia.
After Jia Haoming went in, he saw that the gift brought by Du Xiaowei was still on the sofa in the living room, and he felt very uncomfortable.
So, I also handed over my own gift.
Wang Debiao looked at the gifts he brought: a pot of precious Luohan bamboo, two bottles of Daquanyuan wine, and a large fruit gift box.
Seeing that the gifts of the two families included wine and bamboo, he said to Jia Haoming: "It seems that you two families know my hobbies very well." It must have taken a lot of thought, right? ”
Jia Haoming was stunned and said embarrassedly: "No, it's just a little gift that I bought casually......"
He glanced at the couch next to him, and sure enough, there were two bottles of wine and some other gifts on it. He had seen it when he was out there just now. However, Zhang Aijia blocked it with her hand at that time, so she didn't see it clearly.
Unexpectedly, his gift was so the same as Du Xiaowei's. However, she took the lead.
He felt angry and annoyed. If it weren't for the babysitter's troubles. Now, it should be Du Xiaowei who is sitting here embarrassed, not him.
Wang Debiao saw that Jia Haoming's face was ugly, and he didn't want to embarrass him too much, so he said: "It's okay, it's normal to understand each other." ”
The two chatted for a while, and Wang Debiao found an excuse and sent them out of the door. Of course, in order to take care of his face, he also temporarily accepted his gift.
However, when he opened the large gift box sent by Jia Haoming curiously, he couldn't help but be stunned.
There are several imported fruits inside. On top of the fruit, there is a folded note and a brand new bank card.
He picked up the note and looked at it, which read: "Mr. Wang, this is 500,000, please take care of it!" ”
Wang Debiao couldn't help but be angry, this Jia Haoming, just now used 500 yuan to bribe Qiuyue at the door, and now he is bribing me with 500,000 yuan, it is really unreasonable!
Just now, Qiu Yue's words were still skeptical. Now it seems that it is true, this person's heart is not right.
He called Qiu Yue and asked her to return these gifts to Jia Haoming immediately. However, Qiu Yue said that they had already left in the car.
Wang Debiao had no choice but to put the bank in his pocket and prepare to return it to him when they were invited to dinner the next day.
After Jia Haoming and Sun Tao got into the car at the door of Wang Debiao's villa, they did not return directly to their residence. Instead, I went to another place - the Sheraton Hotel.
Sun Tao asked a little puzzled: "Manager, what are we going to do there?" ”
At this time, it was almost eight o'clock in the evening. Because he has been guarding Wang Debiao's door in the afternoon. So, he hadn't eaten yet, and his stomach was already a little rumbling with hunger.
Jia Haoming was angry at Wang Debiao's house, so he looked a little impatient: "Don't talk nonsense, you'll know when you arrive." ”
Just now, judging from Wang Debiao's attitude of refusing to receive him, Jia Haoming felt a little bad. In order to get this contract, he must find a way to prevent Du Xiaowei from attending tomorrow night's banquet.
Therefore, he had to first determine whether Du Xiaowei and Zhang Aijia were really staying at the Sheraton Hotel.
Although, at the time of the airport. He had seen them leave in the hotel's shuttle. But with Beijing's failed experience, he had to be cautious.
Because this will be related to whether his trip to Shenyang can be successful.
Sun Tao saw that he was unhappy, so he didn't dare to ask again.
Half an hour later, the Sheraton Hotel arrived. It is an international five-star hotel that is well known in Shenyang. After Jia Haoming got out of the car, he went straight to the front desk of the hotel. Falsely claiming to be Du Xiaowei's friend and wanting to check the room she was staying in.
At this point, Sun Tao understood the reason why Jia Haoming wanted to come here.
The front desk said, "I'm sorry, it's the privacy of the guests, we can't disclose it casually......"
Jia Haoming is no stranger to such excuses. At the Porterly Man Hotel in Beijing, he had heard it too. Therefore, while there was no one around, he hurriedly took out a few hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and stuffed them into the hands of the waiter at the front desk.
"It's okay, I just want to ask if she stays at this hotel."
Obviously, this kind of thing, the waiter has been surprised. However, with surveillance on her head, she didn't dare to take his money. So he returned the money: "I'm sorry, the hotel has a rule, I can't provide you with the guest's information!" ”
Jia Haoming had no choice but to pretend to be pitiful and said: "Eldest sister, she ran away from home, and the family is in a hurry, please help me!" ”
The waitress asked, "Then why didn't you call her?" ”
Jia Haoming continued to pause and said: "I have already called, but her mobile phone has been turned off!" ”
The waiter believed it: "Okay, I'll check it for you......"
As he spoke, he turned on the computer, and a few slender fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard. Then, he said to Jia Haoming: "Yes, there is her check-in information......"
When Jia Haoming heard this, he immediately leaned over to her computer and looked at it. Sure enough, there was Du Xiaowei's name on it, and the room number was 5018. Just as he was about to continue looking down, the waiter hurriedly blocked the screen: "I'm sorry, I can only help you so much." ”
Jia Haoming looked grateful: "Thank you!" I'm relieved that she lives here! I'll go back and tell her mom and dad right away......"
With her name and room number, he thought, it would be enough.
