Chapter 40: Beautiful Boy
Seattle, dusk.
Fresh air, thin cool clouds, majestic distant mountains, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, everything around is just right.
The man on the balcony was dressed in a straight suit, with a straight posture, a slightly raised chin, and a hint of arrogance.
Unconsciously turning the goblet in his hand, his deep gaze fell on the distant mountain peak, and there was a melancholy between his eyebrows.
"Gu." A deep voice came from behind him.
After hearing the voice, Gu Tingjun hurriedly turned around and raised his glass politely to the visitor: "Patriarch Puxin." ”
The person who came was Mr. Pu Xin, the patriarch of the Hyde family, and he was also the object of Gu Tingjun's discussion at the charity dinner.
"Gu, your action is really good, I just came back, and you flew over to talk about cooperation." For Gu Tingjun's behavior, Pu Xin was very satisfied.
They talked about charity gadgets quite well, and initially reached a cooperation intention, but he didn't expect that as soon as he returned to Seattle on the front foot, Gu Tingjun followed on the back foot, and brought the completed cooperation plan.
The Hyde family had to hold a welcome party for Gu Tingjun first, and then officially start negotiations on business cooperation tomorrow.
"Patriarch Puxin, I believe you can feel the sincerity of our Oceanpower Group."
Pu Xin stroked his beard and smiled, as if he was in a good mood, and then he patted Gu Tingjun's shoulder: "I admire you very much." Gu, you see that three of my four daughters are adults, and the eldest is about the same age as you. Do you have any ideas? ”
"What does Patriarch Pusin mean?" Gu Tingjun frowned and asked.
This old fox is not going to use a commercial marriage as a bargaining chip!
Pu Xin waved his hand and said: "Let me tell you directly, my second daughter has a good impression of you, and as a father, I naturally hope that she can have a good home." Of course, the feelings of your young people are your business, and cooperation is cooperation. Gu, don't worry, this will definitely not affect the cooperation between you and me. ”
Hearing him say this, Gu Tingjun's heart also relaxed.
If it had been before, Patriarch Pusin's proposal might have given him some ideas, after all, marrying anyone is a marriage, and he can get closer to the Hyde family, and marrying the daughter of their patriarch is also a no-lose deal.
But now, Gu Tingjun subconsciously refused, of course, the reason was not Ning Xuan, compared with the daughter of the patriarch of the Hyde family, everyone knew which one to choose.
What really made Gu Tingjun care was that at that moment just now, what flashed in his mind was Ning Xi.
It's not Ning Xi in women's clothes, but Ning Xi who doesn't care how she is bullied on weekdays, but shows her sharp fangs at some point.
He must be crazy! Obviously, in order to avoid Ning Xi, he came all the way to Seattle.
But because of the words of the patriarch of Puxin, I thought of her again.
"Gu, Gu ......" Pu Xin saw that Gu Tingjun was a little distracted, so he shouted to him twice, and when he came back to his senses, he quipped: "Gu, I'm sure you didn't get distracted just now because of work." Oh, let me guess, our Gu has a sweetheart. It seems that my precious daughter can only be sad for a while. ”
"I'm sorry, Patriarch Pusin." Gu Tingjun rarely loses his temper in front of outsiders, especially in front of such an important partner.
Patriarch Puxin didn't care about this, he asked inquiringly, "Is it the beautiful lady who was with you at the charity dinner?" ”
Well, should he answer yes or no? The question of the patriarch of Pusin is really sharp.
After hesitating for a moment, Gu Tingjun still decided to confess: "In fact, he is a boy. ”
Boy? Pu Xin's whole expression was fixed, but after listening to Gu Tingjun's explanation, he laughed.
"Gu, you are so unexpected. I wish I had the opportunity to meet that beautiful boy. ”
"Yes, there will be." Gu Tingjun was a little unsure.
Pu Xin's meaning is not as simple as simply meeting Ning Xi, what matters is when they meet, Ning Xi's identity and relationship with him.
The welcome party was held until near midnight, and after Gu Tingjun returned to the hotel, he took a hot bath before he had free time to turn on his mobile phone.
The moment the phone was turned on, three missed call messages popped up.
Two are Ning Xi's, and one is Gu You's.
Staring at Ning Xi's number, Gu Tingjun still gave up calling her back, found Gu You's number and called.
"Young Master, something happened to Young Master Ning."
As soon as Gu You spoke, Gu Tingjun's heart sank, and he sat up directly from the bathtub.
"What about others? Who did this to you? ”
The chill in his tone separated the east and west hemispheres, making Gu You shiver.
Knowing that his young master should have misunderstood his words, Gu You hurriedly explained: "Young Master Ning is fine, someone exposed the fact that he took a girl to the hospital to have a fetus, and now the entire Haicheng is overwhelmed with news about him and that girl." ”
After learning that Ning Xi was not in personal danger, Gu Tingjun breathed a sigh of relief, but his tone was still a little tough: "Immediately suppress the news!" ”
"Measures have been taken, but there is too much news before, even if it is suppressed on the surface, it still can't be stopped in private. And ......"
Gu You's desire to speak again made Gu Tingjun very annoyed, he had been with him for so long, didn't he know that what he hated the most was spitting and spitting?
"Speak quickly!"
Being scolded by Gu Tingjun, Gu You had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "Young Master Ning suspects that you leaked this matter, plus that girl almost committed suicide because of this incident, and now Young Master Ning ...... you."
Did she put the matter on his head? This stinky boy!
Gu Tingjun was so angry that he almost wanted to throw the mobile phone out of his hand, but of course he still restrained this impulse.
Although it is important to find out who did this now, the most important thing is to eliminate the bad effects of this matter.
After explaining some things to Gu You, Gu Tingjun still called Ning Xi.
As soon as the phone was connected, Ning Xi scolded him wildly.
"Gu Tingjun! You bastard! Hypocrites who don't talk their words! I'm blind to believe you! You're a big liar through and through! Murderer! I'll never believe you again! ”
After scolding, Ning Xi hung up the phone, and Gu Tingjun didn't even have time to say a word from beginning to end.
Gu Tingjun touched his nose and felt a little ridiculous, this kid's temper is getting bigger and bigger now.
I didn't answer the phone last time, but this time I scolded directly! When did he Gu Tingjun ever be scolded?
Besides, is he so untrustworthy? Did he have to do it if this matter was exposed?
Why didn't this kid think about it with his brain, what good would it do to expose them?
Gu Tingjun really wanted to rush to Ning Xi now, pick up her head and wash it in ice water, so that she would be sober and sober.
Suppressing his anger, when he called Ning Xi again, he found that he had been blocked!
