Chen Yiming went to the Netherlands on a business trip two days ago, and after the cooperation negotiation went smoothly, his client held a yacht party to celebrate the success. It was on the yacht where business figures gathered that he overheard Ruida's trade secrets.

It was before his mother Song Minjing died, Chen Songling and her persuaded him to return to Ruida to prepare for the inheritance, and told him about the grand business plan that Ruida was preparing.

So, despite the whispers between the two people in the conversation, he can sensitively capture the main point. At that time, Chen Yiming immediately called Chen Songling to confirm whether there was a partner?

Hearing this, Chen Songling was very angry, this trade secret is only known to the top management within Ruida Group, and it is still in the final round of evaluation and testing.

Seeing that the situation was serious, Chen Yiming directly booked a ticket back to China from the party and rushed back non-stop. Chen Songling didn't have time to hold a board meeting, so he directly asked Li Chenghao to hold a press conference.

Chen Yiming thought of Zhang Ruoyi, who worked as a fashion reporter in New York and was good at dealing with the media, so the overall arrangement of the media in this regard was handed over to her.

When Chen Yiming was on the plane, the press conference of Ruida Group was in full swing. When he got off the plane and came to Ruida Company, the press conference was just over.

Without waiting for Chen Songling to be moved to see the truth of the hardship between him and his son, Chen Yiming asked detachedly and coldly: "Have you found the person who leaked trade secrets?" ”

Chen Songling deliberated for a long time, and almost all the people on the board of directors were discharged. However, if no one is likely, it means that everyone is likely to be a suspect.

Chen Yiming was silent beside him, his expression was cold, his eyes were shining with a layer of cold edge, and he said slowly after a long time: "Have you ever thought that it might be that woman who did it?" ”

Chen Songling's face was full of consternation, and he looked at his son cautiously, as if he recognized him for the first time. Immediately, his expression returned to normal, and the corners of his mouth overflowed with a hint of self-deprecation.

Maybe from the time that girl was with him, he should have known that his silent son was heavy-minded, and he knew many things, but he didn't say it, or even thought he didn't know.

Chen Yiming's mind kept coming up with his father's suddenly old stunned face, his breath gradually became unstable, and a trace of irritability surged in his heart. Why still doesn't he want to confess?

Since he was a child, he has always felt that there is a gap between him and his father, and he tried to break through and cross in the past, but his early departure and late return and his long years of busy career even made their father and son not eat seriously.

"Here we are."

Yao Zhiyue's voice pulled Chen Yiming's thoughts back, he stopped the car, and his mood quickly returned to calm. Yao Zhiyue was suddenly a little nervous, and her clear eyes looked at Chen Yiming, sparkling, like stars under the sky, "Six buildings with twenty-two floors." ”

This is an upscale community, and outsiders can't easily enter and exit. But Yao Zhiyue had a way, and finally let the property lead them in.

The property made several calls to the owner on the 22nd floor, but no one answered, and said helplessly: "The owner doesn't seem to be at home." ”

Chen Yiming and Yao Zhiyue returned in vain, they didn't want to startle the snake.

Yao Zhiyue has been thinking about this incident in her heart since she came back. However, Chen Yiming goes out early and returns late every day, and he is so busy that he seems to have already forgotten about this matter.

Yao Zhiyue didn't have time to discuss with Chen Yiming, so she drove to that high-end community again. She went straight to the property that hosted them that day.

Yao Zhiyue's tone was abrupt and heavy, a panicked and worried look appeared on his face, and he urged: "Please open the door." I'm worried now that no one knows if he's dead inside. The other day we were on the phone, and he kept saying that his heart was uncomfortable. ”

Seeing that the property was a little moved, Yao Zhiyue struck while the iron was hot and said: "Human life is at stake." If my friend is really just not at home, everyone can rest assured, are you right? ”

"Okay."

Yao Zhiyue secretly cheered in her heart, but when she followed the property to the twenty-second floor, a sense of tension swept over, and her internal organs were pantothenic acid, and she even wanted to go to the bathroom.

She feigned composure, but her brain was like a machine, and the gears that snapped quickly made it impossible for her to load.

The door was opened, Yao Zhiyue's nerves suddenly tensed, and she only heard the property say apologetically: "Hello, is anyone there?" ”

However, the whole room was silent, and not a single sound was heard at all. The property breathed a sigh of relief, with a thrilling look on his face, looked at Yao Zhiyue and said unhappily: "Now you can rest assured." ”

Yao Zhiyue's gaze quickly but carefully scanned the things in the room, and the table top was covered with a layer of dust, as if it hadn't been cleaned for a while.

The decoration of the house is mainly Japanese simple white, with fuchsia balcony curtains. There are few decorations, and the main style is the blank space of the space. She opened the bedroom door, but saw a snow-white plush carpet covering the entire floor, and through the glass door, she saw that the cloakroom was neatly arranged with shoes, bags, and clothes.

Yao Zhiyue felt a sigh in her heart, whether it was the decoration of the room or the clothes in the cloakroom, the owner of this room was undoubtedly a woman.

"Alright, let's go."

The property urged Yao Zhiyue to leave, and she promised in her mouth, but her eyes kept patrolling the house, trying to find some clues.

Suddenly, Yao Zhiyue hit the wooden frame decoration cabinet in the living room and dining room, and let out a cry of pain, but saw an object fall from one of the compartments and fell at her feet with a snap, it turned out to be a mobile phone.

Yao Zhiyue frowned slightly, picked up the phone, and forgot the pain for a while. No wonder the property has been unable to get through to her phone, it turns out that the phone is not on her at all.

If it is really like what Chen Yiming said, this mobile phone number was given by Chen Songling, then it is very likely that Kang Rou is the one who lives here.

"Don't bother, hurry up."

Yao Zhiyue came back to her senses, put the phone back in its place, and followed the property out of the house.

The mobile phone vibrated sound, Yao Zhiyue glanced at the phone screen, and a touch of surprise appeared on her face when she saw the caller ID, and then quickly put on the Bluetooth headset, took a deep breath and pressed the answer button, and said with a little difficulty: "Hey, Cheng, Chenghao." ”

A warm, soothing voice came from the other end, "I've been waiting for your call, thinking you're going to invite me to dinner." ”

Yao Zhiyue laughed awkwardly, her tone was a little at a loss, "I, I thought about inviting you to dinner to thank you for coming, but I was worried that you wouldn't have time to ......."

"Today."

Yao Zhiyue was a little speechless in surprise, more because she didn't expect Li Chenghao to be so sudden. In her opinion, Li Chenghao is elegant and self-conscious, advances and retreats appropriately, and grasps the nobility and affinity just right.

She and Li Chenghao have only met three times in total, if it weren't for Chen Yiming's face, how could people remember such a small person as her.

You have to remember that it should be an unforgettable beauty like Zhang Ruoyi, at least even the jewels of litmus can leave an impression. Where is like her, the whole body is dusty.

It's not that Yao Zhiyue is arrogant, but she is a person who has been taught by life, and it's really hard to believe that she is being paid attention to.

"Where are you? I'll pick you up. ”

Yao Zhiyue came back to her senses and responded in a panic: "I'm driving." In this way, you name a place, and I will go straight to it. ”

About half an hour later, Yao Zhiyue came to the place where Li Chenghao said. After getting out of the car, seeing the high-end and luxuriously decorated storefront, Yao Zhiyue frowned slightly, and a shadow fell on her heart, and she couldn't help but think of the embarrassment she had at that Mafei café last time.

Yao Zhiyue plucked up the courage to walk over, and suddenly a long figure slowly walked towards her. She was slightly startled, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Li Chenghao's reassuring handsome face.

Yao Zhiyue couldn't help but think of Chen Yiming's face and secretly compared it. Compared with Chen Yiming's resolute and cold silhouette, Li Chenghao's silhouette lines are relatively smooth and soft. If Chen Yiming is the cold of the silver in the winter, then Li Chenghao is the softness of the thick green in the early autumn.

"You're here."

Yao Zhiyue nodded, a smile overflowed from the inside out, and with a rare trace of unaware shyness, she responded carefully: "I'm sorry, I've waited for a long time, right?" ”

Li Chenghao shook his head, took the bag in Yao Zhiyue's hand, naturally but very graceful, and said with a warm smile: "I heard that you are from the south, and you may like the Cantonese food in this restaurant." ”

Yao Zhiyue followed Li Chenghao to the window on the third floor and sat down, just enough to take in the brilliant lights of the city. Li Chenghao ordered a few sets of dishes, and did not forget to ask Yao Zhiyue's opinion.

Yao Zhiyue picked up the red wine in front of her, leaned towards Li Chenghao slightly, her clear eyes were smiling, and she said sincerely: "In order to express my gratitude, I will do it first." ”

Watching Yao Zhiyue drink all the red wine, Li Chenghao was a little flustered, and then chuckled, with a tenderness that can intoxicate people in his peach blossom eyes, "Drink slowly, don't choke." ”

The dishes were served one after another, Yao Zhiyue's stomach was already hungry, she ate quite reserved at first, and then gradually she couldn't hold back the temptation of food, took a big gulp, and praised sincerely: "It's very good." ”

Li Chenghao just ate a few bites casually, and then kept drinking, watching Yao Zhiyue eat with relish, as if he was enjoying a movie that made him happy.

He took a sip of red wine and said slowly: "My parents are ordinary employees of state-owned enterprises, and I worked as the marketing director of Ruida after graduating from college and returning to China. ”

Yao Zhiyue nodded, there is no need for him to say, just by looking at his words and deeds, everyone knows that he should have a good family background and a good family education. It's just that she doesn't know why Li Chenghao told her this.

Seeing Yao Zhiyue's surprised and surprised expression, Li Chenghao smiled warmly, with a hint of panic between his eyebrows, and explained: "I, I just want you to understand me." ”

Although Yao Zhiyue has never been in love, she has watched love movies and television dramas, so what's the matter, I haven't eaten pork and never seen a pig run.

She was a little at a loss for a moment, and she was afraid that she would misunderstand what Li Chenghao meant, so she responded in a shallow voice: "Well, I know." ”

Seeing Yao Zhiyue's crampedness, Li Chenghao changed the topic, his tone became relaxed and relaxed, and said, "Are you still used to living in Yiming?" ”

Yao Zhiyue suddenly raised her eyes to look at Li Chenghao, seeing that his expression was indifferent, and there was no other unknown meaning, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and explained: "Actually, I was kicked out by the landlord and couldn't find a place to live for a while, and then I happened to use money to do things for Chen Yiming, so I just lived with him temporarily." I、I've been looking for a house in my free time. ”

Yao Zhiyue didn't know why she was nervous, as if she had to explain it clearly. The light in Li Chenghao's eyes quietly overflowed, smiled quietly, and said gently: "I have a friend who just wants to rent out the house, let me help you ask?" ”

Yao Zhiyue shook her head, she didn't want to trouble Li Chenghao, and at the same time, she knew that with her current financial situation, she couldn't afford to rent a slightly better house at all.

Li Chenghao was not reluctant, and when Yao Zhiyue had eaten about the same, he paid the bill in advance. Yao Zhiyue was naturally very reluctant not to go, and told Li Chenghao that she would have to pay next time.

Yao Zhiyue followed Li Chenghao out of the restaurant, and while she was talking and laughing, two familiar figures suddenly met her eyes.
