Chapter 391: Catch the Present
Villa.
Hong Chen woke up slowly, stretched his waist, sat up from the long sofa, and looked at Zhong Lingyun, who was sleeping soundly in the single sofa on the side, with a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth.
The alchemy took sixteen hours, and the master and apprentice were so tired that they didn't eat or wash, so they slept on the sofa in the living room.
Hong Chen walked over shallowly, reached out and stroked the corners of her mouth, wiping away the trace of saliva.
"It's almost ten o'clock, and I've slept for more than seven hours." Hong Chen glanced at the dark sky outside the window, took out his mobile phone to look at the time, and muttered in his mouth.
Three missed calls, the same unfamiliar number, called every hour from eight o'clock in the evening.
Hong Chen yawned and walked back to the bathroom.
Ten minutes later.
Hong Chen came out of the bathroom, and when he saw that there was a trace of saliva on the corner of Zhong Lingyun's mouth, he shook his head with a smile, wiped it off for her, and then rubbed her little head: "Continue to pretend." β
Zhong Lingyun narrowed one eye, rubbed the corners of her mouth with her fingers, and murmured, "I was bitten twice by mosquitoes." β
Then he looked at Hong Chen and shouted, "Master." β
A few black lines fell on Hong Chen's forehead, no big or small, and the master became a mosquito.
didn't bother with her, Hong Chen picked up the three small wooden boxes on the coffee table, flipped through them, put two in his pocket, and handed the other over: "I checked it for you last night, and some of the medicinal power of the last pill was not absorbed, well, this big pill, take it again in three days, the medicinal power can last for more than half a month, and it should be able to help you reach the peak of the third high stage." β
Zhong Lingyun smiled and nodded, and then held it in his hand like a treasure.
"I'll transfer the remaining 700 million to that account, and then transfer another 100 million to you, and then collect some medicinal materials for me." Hong Chen said, took out his mobile phone and operated, Jicheng Real Estate sold sixty percent of the shares to Hongcheng Group, 2.5 billion has been transferred to his personal account, although it is all Hong Chen's money, the left pocket is down the right pocket, but such a large amount of money is directly transferred by the company to the Zhong family, it is easy to expose his identity as the boss behind the Hongcheng Group.
After transferring the account, Hong Chen took the paper again and wrote down six medicinal materials.
"I've got something to do, so I'll go first."
"Master, are you still eating?"
"Buy something to eat on the way, make an appointment to meet, and call at any time." At the end, Hong Chen waved his hand and started to leave.
Zhong Lingyun sent it to the yard, stuffed a pack of special cigarettes for Hong Chen, and watched the Audi drive into the night.
Half an hour later.
Hong Chen came to a cafΓ©, and the waiter led him into the No. 2 private room.
Kong Bin was already there, and when he saw Hong Chen get up and say hello, Hong Chen sat down with him, opened the menu on the table casually, and ordered a set A.
"What's the matter with me?" Kong Bin made three phone calls in a row, saying that he had something important to meet with him, but he refused to disclose it on the phone, Hong Chen thought about it, or came to the appointment, but he wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in this kid's gourd?
"Brother Chen, I was ignorant and offended you before, don't worry if you have a lot of adults." Kong Bin was unusually polite and gave Hong Chen a cigarette.
Hong Chen looked at him, didn't refute his face, took the cigarette, Kong Bin wanted to light it for him, he didn't let him, he lit it himself.
"Brother Chen, actually, I don't have any prejudice, mainly because of Kong Miaohan, my eldest sister and I don't have a cold."
Kong Bin said tentatively, seeing that Hong Chen didn't react, he continued: "You also know that Kong Miaohan is fiancΓ© is our less, the conditions for the marriage of the two families have been negotiated, and the engagement banquet is about to be held, but as a result, there is a dream of the sea of flowers, I know, in fact, you are a victim and are innocently implicated..."
Seeing Hong Chen frowning slightly, Kong Bin Lima explained: "Brother Chen, I don't deny that I despised you at the beginning, thinking that you were not qualified to join my Kong family, but that was misled by Kong Miaohan, you remember, the next day when you came to the door, Kong Miaohan introduced you to be self-made, but the investment company in your hand is Kong Miaohan's..."
After a pause, the words changed: "Later, I learned that you are a second-grade peak martial artist, with your age, you will enter the third grade in the future, don't say that you are a third-grade martial artist, as long as you are willing, it is no problem to enter the four first-line families in the provincial capital, and you will be very valued by the family, not to mention, you also have a magical medical skill." β
Hong Chen smiled silently and flicked the cigarette ash: "You mean, I lost money on this marriage, I should divorce your sister, and then find a woman from a first-line family to marry, so that I can maximize my benefits?" β
Kong Bin twitched the corner of his eyes, and said with a dry smile: "Marriage is not a business, the size of the interests is secondary, the key is that the two people are in agreement." β
Hong Chen said with a smile: "But that's not what you said just now, or I misunderstood." β
Kong Bin's face was a little unnatural, and he was entangled, and said: "I mean, Brother Chen, your conditions are more than enough for Kong Miaohan, under this premise, you marry her, the gains and losses are only secondary, and the feelings for each other are the first." β
Hong Chen thought about it, but he didn't deny this statement, nodded and said, "Then what." β
Kong Bin gritted his teeth: "Brother Chen, I don't feel worth it for you." β
"Not worth it?"
"Yes, I don't deny that Kong Miaohan has a lot of excellence, for example, she is beautiful and has a good figure, for example, she is very talented in business, she is less than thirty years old and is in charge of a multi-billion company, even if it is a man in the entire provincial circle, it is difficult to find a second one, but marrying her as a wife, I still feel worthless for Brother Chen, because she is scheming and has no feelings for you, and the reason why she wants you to join is purely to use you to help her stabilize her position in the family."
After that, seeing Hong Chen's noncommittal look, Kong Bin immediately took out his mobile phone and handed it over.
"Brother Chen, look at it yourself, there are several photos here, don't ask me how I got here, I guarantee the real thing, it is Kong Miaohan's college classmate, her first love, her true love..."
On the mobile phone screen, there is a photo of Kong Miaohan hugging the man, flipping over the next one, the two of them look at each other side by side, the two faces are no more than three centimeters apart, and then turn over the next one, the photo of the two kissing, no, it should be the action of kissing, the man's side face leaned towards Kong Miaohan's cheek, and there was a difference of one centimeter...
Hong Chen slid his fingers and watched silently, there was no change in expression on his face, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, even if he knew that Kong Bin's intentions might not be good.
That's right, the two are married by agreement and do not interfere with each other's private lives, but after all, they are nominal wives, and the two live under the same roof, as long as they are not cold-blooded men to the end, it is impossible to be indifferent, this is a human instinct!
"I have a heart." Hong Chen handed the mobile phone back, and at this time, the service was delivered with food, Hong Chen's stomach was already hungry, so he picked up chopsticks and feasted.
Kong Bin didn't seem to want to affect his appetite and didn't expand on the topic further.
The effort was not big, after eating a set meal, Hong Chen offered to say goodbye, Kong Bin paid the bill and accompanied Hong Chen out of the cafΓ©.
"Brother Chen, maybe you will think that I deliberately provoked trouble, with bad intentions, I don't hide it from you, I had a holiday with Kong Miaohan, I did something wrong in the company back then, I begged her to help me hide it once, but she didn't recognize her six relatives, and made the matter public in the family, and finally I was assigned to the logistics department of the group, I'm afraid I don't want to turn over in this life."
Kong Bin handed Hong Chen a cigarette, lit one himself, and said with some indignation: "I know in my heart that she didn't help me at the beginning, but had to push me, just to kick me away, otherwise when I am promoted to vice president, I will definitely share her power as president. β
As he spoke, he pulled Hongchen's arm and pointed ahead: "Brother Chen, take a few steps, just help digestion after dinner, and I'll take you to see something." β
Hong Chen was a little inexplicable, but he didn't refuse, and it was only a hundred meters away, Kong Bin's footsteps stopped, pointing to the road, Hong Chen's eyes followed his fingers, and he saw that it was a tea room, and through a few pieces of floor-to-ceiling glass, the scene inside was clear at a glance.
The tea room is decorated well, soft lighting, warm colors, it feels very warm, and it has a bit of romantic elements, even if it is almost eleven o'clock, there are several tables of guests.
At the foothold by the window, a man and a woman sat opposite each other, the man held a cup of steaming tea, and the woman pinched a spoon and stirred in the cup, which was Di Haohui and Kong Miaohan.
Hong Chen was a little stunned, he could have said before that the photo was before Kong Miaohan and him got married, but the picture in front of him told Hong Chen that the photo was today, because the clothes of the two at this moment were exactly the same as in the photo.
Kong Bin squinted his eyes and said, "Brother Chen, it's ten fifty-five, you call Kong Miaohan and make sure she tells you that she is working." β
Hong Chen looked at him: "No need." β
Kong Bin shook his head: "Brother Chen, I have a straightforward personality, I am in a hurry to meet you, I really didn't have any good intentions, but it was aimed at Kong Miaohan, I don't want her to work scheming again and again, using others again and again, and succeeding again and again, I have a good heart to you and me, I hope you can see her true colors, don't make this call, you didn't hear her lie to you with your own ears, she will explain a hundred reasons when she looks back, I am also sure, she will find a way to get the message I gave you from your mouth, and then turn it upside down to make you hate me, In this way, I am equivalent to being kind to the liver and lungs of a donkey. β
