What Du Hongming said is indeed true, the power of attorney originally had an 8-year validity period, but it has been delayed for nearly 5 years in the hands of the Lin family, and even if it is stored like this, it will become a pile of waste paper sooner or later.

Therefore, being able to exchange the power of attorney for Lin Qinghe's happiness in this life can be regarded as far from being worth the money. Lin Qinghe's mother Su Yan also hesitated for a while, but she finally chose to support her son, although she was not without doubts about Zhao Xi's daughter-in-law.

Therefore, the Lin family lost such a valuable inheritance that Lin Bojie had retained through his hard work, which was still a big blow to Lin Qingrou. Because she also hopes that she can one day help her father realize his unfulfilled dream.

It's a pity that the current Lin family, including Lin Qingrou, is so weak and still in a stormy adversity. Although the company is supported by his brother Lin Qinghe, and it is developing in a better direction day by day, it is still far from the glory that his father once achieved.

As for Lin Qingrou herself, not only is she divorced, but now even her son Du Lin rarely sees each other. Du Lin is also Lin Bojie's grandson, even if this child's surname is Du, he is also a member of the Lin family, and this relationship can't be broken.

Lin Qingrou felt that she was very sorry for her parents, she had failed her life so much, time and youth passed quietly in a muddy nightmare, and she couldn't help but sigh with compassion when she thought of this.

"What's wrong with you, what are you thinking?" Du Hongming walked over from the front, holding two cans of canned coffee in his hands.

Lin Qingrou took the coffee handed over by Du Hongming, and it was at room temperature to the touch. Because Lin Qingrou has always been very protective of her throat, if she feels that it will hurt her throat a little, she will try her best to avoid it.

Du Hongming has always known Lin Qingrou's taboos in diet, so even though today is the hottest weather since the beginning of summer, he still has a lot of heart to take a can of room temperature coffee for Lin Qingrou.

"No, nothing. I just think it's actually pretty good today, it's just a little hot. Lin Qingrou replied.

Du Hongming looked up at the somewhat hot sun and said, "Yes, but when we enter the mountain, the temperature inside will be much lower than here." ”

They were almost halfway to the lodge, which was located in a natural mountain area that had not yet been opened to the public, and which was said to have been run and built a very luxurious, well-equipped resort that was now only used by a few privileged insiders.

Lin Qingrou didn't know why she deliberately put the engagement ceremony in such an inconvenient place at first, but she heard that it was the intention of the woman's Zhao Xi's family, maybe this arrangement would make them feel more pompous and meet their needs for vanity.

However, Du Hongming knows some more specific details. In fact, this arrangement is what Director Zhao meant, because in the past few days, not only the engagement ceremony of her daughter Zhao Xi and her son-in-law Lin Qinghe will be held in the villa, but also an annual meeting of investors initiated by the Ministry of Commerce is being held.

The conference brought together developers from home and abroad who are interested in investing in Gaoyang and its neighboring counties, or who already have projects under construction. The content of the meeting is nothing more than to communicate with each other, work together, and everyone sits together to discuss whether they can maximize the benefits and strive to get a piece of the pie for each other.

For a meeting where a large group of businessmen gathered, the word "interest" is always inseparable from the discussion. As long as there are common benefits between the government and enterprises, or between enterprises and enterprises, then there will be no lack of enthusiasm.

Lin Qingrou asked with some curiosity, "Didn't you say that the meeting was already going on?" But why are you here with me? ”

Lin Qingrou looked at this slightly simple high-speed service area, she and Du Hongming had been resting here for more than forty minutes, so she had such questions. It seems that Du Hongming not only has no urgency at all, but also has a good time.

"Am I getting in the way of you again, if you had told me you were going to this meeting, I wouldn't have done my hair, and I wasted so much time on it." Lin Qingrou thought of asking Du Hongming to take her hair done, and said a little reluctantly.

Du Hongming replied indifferently: "Why do you think that I must be among the invitees to this meeting?" ”

Lin Qingrou's eyes widened, and she asked with a surprised expression, "Aren't you participating?" How is this possible, you have two large group companies behind you, Whitby Global Group and Hongming Group, why don't they invite you to participate? ”

Du Hongming smiled and replied, "Because maybe I'm not likable." ”

Lin Qingrou felt that Du Hongming was joking with herself again, so after drinking coffee, she urged Du Hongming to leave for her destination as soon as possible. But after driving back on the road, Du Hongming told Lin Qingrou that he was not joking.

In fact, due to the government's position, the natural first choice is to choose to support local enterprises to develop and invest in local land and natural resources, so they are not as enthusiastic about some foreign backgrounds or multinational companies as they seem on the surface.

Originally, Hongming Group has always been the top enterprise in the real estate industry in Gaoyang City, but after Du Liangde's death, a large part of this business was assigned to Du Zeming's newly established Zelin Group, plus Du Hongming also has the identity background of the multinational group company Whitby Global Group, so he seems to have been deliberately alienated by the local business and financial circle.

Hearing this, Lin Qingrou asked with some concern: "If you are excluded like this, it should have a great impact on the company, so what should you do?" ”

Du Hongming said confidently: "It doesn't matter, everyone will make some small calculations." Everyone can get together just to share some interests, and many relationships will be constantly broken and reorganized in the face of interests, and maybe tomorrow they will rush to make friends with me. ”

Lin Qingrou was amused by Du Hongming's vivid statement, a very bright smile bloomed on her face, and Du Hongming couldn't help but turn her head to look at the smiling beauty beside her.

"Oops! Don't look at me, stay safe when driving! We're on the highway right now! Lin Qingrou exclaimed.

Then she and Du Hongming both laughed happily. When Lin Qingrou is with Du Hongming, she is slowly becoming more natural and relaxed, and sometimes she will show her cute and lively side, which are subtle manifestations of the two people becoming intimate.

As you drive through a winding road, the scenery in front of you becomes more and more beautiful. The air here is very fresh, it is a natural scenic area that has not yet been fully developed, and when the pleasing scenery in front of her is presented one by one, Lin Qingrou's mood is also becoming more pleasant with these beautiful scenery.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Qingrou and Du Hongming finally arrived at this manor located deep in the mountains and forests. It is said to be a manor, but in fact, it is a leisure resort area with a huge area. In addition to the castle-like lodge and resort hotel, there are also golf courses, wineries, farms and a series of idyllic entertainment and leisure venues.

Du Hongming took Lin Qingrou to this castle-like villa full of European medieval style, after the front desk announced the name, Lin Qinghe had already arranged a room for the two of them, which looked classical and dignified, brilliant and magnificent.

"We're on the same floor." Du Hongming said after looking at the room card he took from the front desk staff.

Lin Qingrou took one of the room cards, which said A5102, while Du Hongming's was A5233. Judging by the room number, it seems that it is not just on the same floor, but it should be a neighboring room.

So Du Hongming was very gentlemanly and handed over all the luggage of Lin Qingrou to the welcome guest, and the two of them followed the service staff into the elevator. At this time, Lin Qingrou's expression was a little nervous, and it was not an exaggeration to say that she was nervous.

Because she had heard Du Hongming mention before she came, an investor meeting was held here today. The meeting was organized by Zhao Xi's father, Director Zhao, on behalf of the Gaoyang City Bureau of Commerce, and there is no doubt that some acquaintances of Lin Qingrou will attend a meeting of this nature.

Du Zeming is the CEO of Zelin Group, and he will undoubtedly be among the invitees to this meeting. Of course, just Du Zeming's words, Lin Qingrou didn't have any need to feel nervous, but she was now following Du Hongming by her side, which would make people feel a little unnatural.

If you bump into Du Zeming at this time, I'm afraid it will still look a little embarrassing. Lin Qingrou couldn't help but be a little worried in her heart, since she was taken out by Du Hongming in the hospital more than a year ago, the three of them have not appeared in the same frame so far, and she didn't dare to predict what it would be like.

In fact, Lin Qingrou herself couldn't tell why she was so cringe, probably because every time Du Zeming and Du Hongming met, there was often no good result, but she felt as if she had some timidity in her heart, but she couldn't tell what the source of this timidity was.

But fortunately, the scene that Lin Qingrou was worried about on the way from the elevator to the room did not happen, in fact, the probability of this was not very large, and she was a little too nervous. Du Hongming first sent Lin Qingrou to the door of her room, and then took his luggage and walked to his room.
