Chapter 035: The Past Is Like Smoke

"Let's go, let's go back to Yancheng."

I don't know what I talked about with Qin Yi in the study, Situ Mo's eyes were slightly red, but his tone was still the same, and he couldn't hear any waves.

"Oh, okay, then I'll say goodbye to my grandma and my parents."

Seeing Situ Mo's appearance, Qin Lanzhou muttered in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask anything.

She immediately went to say goodbye to her grandmother and parents, and Du Caiyu and Qin Yi came out to see them off.

Qin Lanzhou noticed that Qin Yi looked at Situ Mo with a hint of meaning and deep melancholy.

Qin Lanzhou had already vaguely guessed the content of their conversation, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Without saying anything more, after saying goodbye to their families, the two drove back to Yancheng again......

——

When I returned to the Molan Workshop, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Mo immediately took out a letter from the drawer of the cash register and handed it to Qin Lanzhou:

"Sister Yi, your letter seems to have been sent by the organizer of the competition."

"Organizers?"

Qin Lanzhou was a little surprised, she stepped forward to open the envelope and found that it was actually an invitation letter.

It turned out that the Association of Arts and Crafts was going to organize a business delegation to Europe to participate in the gold jewelry exhibition, and at the same time to visit jewelry factories in Germany and Switzerland for 8 days.

Qin Lanzhou didn't expect that he had won the first prize in the Gongmei Competition, and there was such an honor, and when he saw the "European Gold and Jewelry Exhibition" written on the invitation, Qin Lanzhou's heart burned with a little excitement.

When Qin Lanzhou was a student, she had hoped to visit and study in Europe, not only did she have such an idea, but Situ Mo also expressed her desire to visit a century-old jewelry factory in Europe.

"Senior brother, it was an invitation letter from the Craft and Art Association, inviting me to visit Germany and Switzerland as a representative. The workshop hasn't been busy lately, so let's go for a walk together. ”

Seeing Situ Mo approaching, Qin Lanzhou subconsciously issued an invitation.

Of course, Qin Lanzhou hopes to go with Situ Mo, with Situ Mo's former status in the Craft and Art Association, if he really wants to go together, it shouldn't be difficult to fight for another place.

However, as soon as Situ Mo heard that it was sent by the Artists Association, his face suddenly turned gray:

"I'll forget it, you should take advantage of such a good opportunity."

Situ Mo took the invitation and glanced at it, then said lightly.

Situ Mo's refusal made Qin Lanzhou subconsciously feel a little lost:

"If you don't go, brother, then I don't really want to go."

Qin Lanzhou pretended to be indifferent and shrugged his shoulders and put the invitation back in the envelope.

"It's not been busy in the workshop lately, it's enough for me alone, you don't want to waste such a good opportunity."

Situ Mo patted Qin Lanzhou's shoulder and admonished, then walked sideways in the direction of the secret door.

"Senior brother, will you go upstairs to rest?"

Qin Lanzhou looked at Situ Mo's back and hurriedly asked.

"I'll take a shower and go out in a while."

Situ Mo's voice floated over, but the person had already disappeared into the secret door.

At the same time as the secret door was automatically closed, a gust of autumn wind was squeezed into the store.

Qin Lanzhou, who was thinly dressed, couldn't help but shudder, how many times has Senior Brother gone out recently...... Seems like a bit much.

"Sister Yi, we haven't had inventory for a few days, do you have time now?"

Xiaomo asked at this time.

"Yes, let's take stock now."

Qin Lanzhou happily agreed, turned around and walked into the counter, and began to inventory with Xiaomo.

This inventory took about half an hour.

At this time, Situ Mo was already dressed and came out of the secret door again.

The familiar smell of perfume floated over faintly, Qin Lanzhou raised his head again, and found that Situ Mo had changed into a new dress from head to toe for the first time, and his hairstyle was carefully groomed, making him look much neater.

"Brother Mo is dressed so handsome today, is he going on a date?"

Xiao Sheng raised his head and said teasing to Situ Mo.

"Go meet a friend."

Situ Mo said lightly, and after bowing slightly to Xiao Sheng, he immediately walked out of the store.

Xiao Sheng's words were obviously joking, but they made Qin Lanzhou suddenly excited.

Instinctive intuition made Qin Lanzhou lose the mind of inventory in an instant, she quickly handed over the work in her hand to Xiao Mo and Xiao Sheng, and immediately chased after her......

Situ Mo was immersed in the heart-rending memories of the past, and he didn't know that after the taxi he was taking, he followed a little tail that couldn't be shaken off not far away.

His life is so indifferent now, but the memories of the past ten years are so thrilling.

At the age of 25, he met Tao Yuan, at the age of 28 he was engaged to Tao Yuan, at the age of 30, he expanded Qirun Jewelry and Gold Store into a national chain enterprise, and at the age of 32, he was divorced and broken up.

Tao Yuan, in his memory, is a brightly burning fire.

This flame once illuminated his path, and later, it burned him deeply.

There was nothing wrong with loving each other at the beginning, but time destroyed the ancient and decaying, driving the treacherous fate of the situation, and the sea was reduced to a mulberry field.

Originally, it was best not to see the old man.

But this time, Qin Lanzhou was able to win the award in the Gongmei Competition, all thanks to Tao Yuan's help, and after several considerations, he decided to invite this meal.

Tao Yuan chose the location at the Twilight Restaurant, a Chinese tavern with a lot of characteristics.

When Situ Mo arrived, Tao Yuan had already arrived and sent him a message telling him that she was sitting on the window seat on the second floor and waiting.

As soon as he walked into the entrance of the second floor, he saw an old man from the old days sitting next to the window of the characteristic tavern.

Calculating the time, Tao Yuan is now 30 years old.

The years are relatively tolerant of men, but they are slightly harsher to women.

Although she wore heavy makeup to disguise it, he could still see through the haggard look on her face from a long distance.

Situ Mo subconsciously frowned slightly, and strode towards Tao Yuan.

When Tao Yuan raised her head again, Situ Mo was already sitting opposite her.

"I hurt my foot a few days ago, so I delayed it until now."

Situ Mo's voice was soft, and his tone was as light as ever.

"You take care of her personally?"

Tao Yuan was a little surprised, mixed with a trace of mind.

She looked at Situ Mo in a daze, and her eyes couldn't help but be attracted by Situ Mo's increasingly calm aura.

Obviously, his facial features are still as handsome as ten years ago, but she feels that he has changed so much, so big that he seems to have changed as a different person.

"My wife takes care of it."

Situ Mo said lightly, he raised his head, touched the tiredness in Tao Yuan's eyebrows, and his heart tightened slightly.

"It's very powerful, you won the first prize at such a young age, it seems that it is all the credit of your senior brother. I remember that when we first met her in Beixun Ancient Street, she was still a little girl with a sheeptail, and the time was really fast. ”

Tao Yuan praised, her eyes were tender like water, and she never moved away from Situ Mo's face for a second.

"Yes, she worked hard enough, and thank you for helping to find those two pairs of gems."

Situ Mo raised his head, his eyes were calm, his body was upright, and he couldn't detect a trace of emotion.

Tao Yuan deliberately dressed up, but she couldn't see any surprise in Situ Mo's eyes, which made her feel a little lost.

"You don't have to be polite to me, in fact, those two pairs of gems are not my credit, I'm just doing a favor."

Tao Yuan said with a smile, looking at Situ Mo with his cheeks raised, his eyes were three points flirtatious and seven points innocent.

If she had looked at Situ Mo like this before, Situ Mo would have immediately taken a bite of her as a tempting jelly.

But now, Situ Mo is indifferent.

Situ Mo's cold silence towards her was like a charcoal that had been extinguished for a long time, no matter how much she tried her best to exude charm, she couldn't tease him for half a point.

When they met again after three years of breakup, he sank completely, even deeper than when she met him.

This made Tao Yuan a little frightened, and at the same time there was a deep guilt in his heart.

"Not your credit? What does this say? ”

Situ Mo was very surprised.

"At that time, I heard from a friend that you were asking people to find gems everywhere, and I just went to Jinyi to talk about things, so I asked Mr. Song by the way, but I didn't expect that he would soon ask someone to find these two pairs of gems from Myanmar. So, in fact, it was Mr. Song who helped a lot. ”

Tao Yuan patiently explained.

"Mr. Song?"

Situ Mo didn't react for a while, and in his impression, he didn't know any "Mr. Song".

"Jinyi, don't you know? The newly opened gold processing factory in Yancheng is the largest and most advanced equipment, and their boss is named Song Jinyu, a young returnee. ”

Tao Yuan quietly drove the topic, while paying attention to the change in Situ Mo's expression.

When he heard the words "Song Jinyu", Situ Mo's body was like a swing, and he was obviously shocked.

Originally...... It's him.

Situ Mo's heart sank instantly, he vaguely remembered that the woman who claimed to be Song Jinyu's girlfriend at that time did mention Jinyi when he talked to him.

It's just that he didn't expect that Song Jinyu was so young that he was already the leader of Jinyi.

He frowned subconsciously, and the two sword eyebrows twisted into a straight line:

"Do you know him?"

"I know, Mr. Song is young and promising, and he has a set of business styles, and the gold styles from their factory are very popular, so I have been cooperating with Jinyi recently."

Tao Yuan said quietly, deliberately mentioning Song Jinyu's goodness in front of Situ Mo.

"Young is easy to be frivolous, as far as I know, he is not a good person, it is better for you to cooperate with him prudently."

After knowing the source of the gem, Situ Mo did not accept Song Jinyu's love, but became more and more disgusted.

This kind of golden boy brother obviously has a girlfriend, but he frequently provokes Qin Lanzhou, and he clearly has bad intentions.

"How do you think that? Mr. Song's reputation in the industry is still very good, not only is he young and motivated, but he has never been involved in flowers, he is dedicated to his career, and he has always been single. ”

Seeing that Situ Mo had a bad impression of Song Jinyu, Tao Yuan hurriedly praised.

How did she know that Song Jinyu was going to Qin Lanzhou, and thought that Song Jinyu really wanted to cooperate with Situ Mo, so she hollowed out her mind and wanted to help Song Jinyu say good things.

The word "single" mentioned by Tao Yuan made Situ Mo strongly suspicious:

"Single? Are you sure? ”
