Chapter 386: Old Man
Shen Wei's questioning tone made me lazy to bird him, he has nothing to do with Chu Yan, and I have no obligation to tell him these things, if he tells me in a good voice, maybe he will take care of him, but his tone makes me ignore him at all, not to mention that I almost lost my life just now.
"Let me ask you what happened outside with Manager Chu just now? When did you go out? Shen Wei saw that I ignored him, and asked again impatiently.
"I share a room with you, you don't know when I went out? You're dead asleep, aren't you? As for what happened to me and Manager Chu outside, you can ask her to go yourself. Shen Wei's question made me a little impatient, and I directly scolded him.
Shen Wei saw that I was really unhappy, and he was afraid of annoying me, so he also silenced for a long time.
He was silent, and I instantly felt a lot quieter, and the events that had just happened were recalled in my mind.
What is the origin of that female ghost, and is the WeChat friend I deleted really her?
And Chu Yan obviously saw me in distress, but she turned a blind eye indifferently, she really wanted to watch me die, why is this.
Wang Jian and the others came to harm me before, were they also instructed by Chu Yan?
These questions kept me awake all night, and what puzzled me the most was what kind of grudge Chu Yan and I had, and why she wanted me to die.
The next morning, Shen Wei got up, the movement of his clothes and washing woke me up, I was not asleep, I opened my eyes and emptied myself, and waited for him to go out of the room before getting up.
When I was washing, I saw the dark circles under my eyes and the pinch marks on my neck in the mirror, a red circle, which I could see at a glance, I sighed and changed into the turtleneck sweater I had brought.
When I went downstairs, the three of them were already below, and when they saw me coming down, Chu Yan opened her mouth and said, "Let's hurry up and have breakfast when we are all down, and someone from the partner company will come to negotiate the contract with us later." ”
I walked in and saw some milk bread on the table, I picked up a piece of bread, and thought of the half-eaten bread last night, and suddenly I couldn't eat it, so I picked up the milk and drank two sips.
As soon as I finished breakfast, the two people in charge came yesterday, and as soon as they entered the door, they greeted me: "Good morning, you slept well last night." ”
Chu Yan said politely: "Good morning, we slept well last night." ”
I stood next to her, and saw that she had a proper smile on her face, and she didn't blink when she lied, and she knew best if we slept well last night.
"Just sleep well, sleep well." The person in charge of the cooperation repeated both sides in a row, and his tone was also very strange.
I felt something was wrong when I heard him, yesterday when they left and told us not to go out at night, and now when they come in the morning, they ask us if we slept well, and then they are relieved to learn that we slept well, these reactions are very abnormal.
Isn't the other thing he meant by asking if anything happened last night?
Do these two people in charge know something, such as going out at night to meet some strange people or things?
As soon as the idea came to my mind, I immediately thought that it was very likely, and the person in charge of the cooperation was also an employee of the developer of this villa complex, and they must have known what was going on here, and maybe they would know about the strange things that happened yesterday.
But looking at their attitude, I also know that if they ask openly, they will definitely not be able to ask anything, if the villas here are really weird, they will definitely hide it, after all, the villas here have not been sold out, and the buyers have very few people living in, if people from the outside know these things, it will be difficult to sell the villas here.
They are not stupid, things that will touch their interests will definitely not be publicized everywhere, and it is difficult to find out whether this villa has strange words from their mouths.
If they know that there are ghosts here, but they still sell the villa, this is making money without conscience, and I can't look past it, especially after my own experience last night, I want to know more about the strangeness of this place.
The company came to sign a contract with them because it had something to do with these villas, and if there was anything strange here, our company's interests would be harmed.
The two people in charge talked about the cooperation with Chu Yan, and the conditions they gave were very generous, and on the surface, it seemed that we would make a profit if we signed this contract, but I knew that if what I guessed just now was true, then we would definitely not have any benefit.
Chu Yan, who I could think of, naturally thought of it, so when the other party said that she wanted to sign the contract immediately, she refused, saying that she would think about it again.
Although the other party was a little dissatisfied, he didn't say anything, but gave her time to think about it.
In this way, we will have to stay here for one more day until we sign the contract before leaving.
The two people in charge seemed to want Chu Yan to sign this contract, so they offered to take us to this area for a visit, and by the way, tell us some future development prospects here.
Chu Yan said that she was happy to go, and the three of us naturally wanted to follow, and the two people in charge took us around the huge villa complex and introduced their design concepts and preliminary plans to us.
I wasn't interested in what they were talking about, and kept looking around, and we walked on like this, slowly coming to the same path I had come to last night.
I looked at the end of the asphalt road under my feet, the deep cement road appeared in front of my eyes, thinking of the location on my phone last night, and the location of the red dot, I deliberately pointed to the cement road, and asked the two responsible persons: "Where does that lead?" ”
They were stunned for a moment when they saw the direction I was pointing, and one of them reacted quickly, and he said: "That is an area that we have not yet developed, but our boss already has the intention of developing it, and it will start construction next year, and there is nothing to see over there, let's change the way and go to the other side." ”
After the man finished speaking, he led us in the other direction, contrary to the direction of the cement path that day, Chu Yan and the others heard that it was a place that had not yet been developed, and they had no intention of going to see it, so they listened to their opinions and followed them forward.
I looked back at the concrete path, which I had just walked the night before, and I didn't know what was behind the big iron gate, but I had a vague idea in my heart to see it.
"Lu Yan, what are you looking at, let's go." Yu Jie took a few steps forward, found that I hadn't followed, and turned her head and shouted at me.
"Hey, here we are." I answered, withdrew my gaze, and walked over to them.
The two people in charge took us to almost all over this area, probably to prove that their villa complex really has potential, and on the way back, they were still inciting Chu Yan to sign a contract, but they were blocked by Chu Yan.
The two of them saw that Chu Yan's attitude was clear, although they were a little displeased, but they also knew that this cooperation could not be pushed too hard, so they didn't say anything anymore, but their faces were a little unpleasant.
A few of us walked to the villa where we lived, and when we were about to arrive, we saw an old man coming in front of us, he hunched his back, turned around in place for a while, and when he saw us, his cloudy eyes lit up, and then he came over.
"Manager, when will you pay the money you said last time?" The old man walked over and said to the two people in charge.
The two responsible persons had ugly faces when they saw the old man, but now that they heard his words, one of them's face sank directly, and he said in a cold tone: "We are talking about cooperation today, and you will talk about your affairs next time, you can go first." ”
The old man listened but didn't follow, he asked the man: "Last time you said this talk, this time you shirked the next time, when will this be pushed?" ”
The person in charge said with a bad attitude: "You still don't want your money, say that next time is next time, will a company as big as ours lose your money, you leave quickly, don't get in the way here." After saying that, he pushed the old man a few times.
The old man looked quite old, and he was standing there bending over and hooking his back, and he was suddenly pushed back several steps by him, and almost fell down.
Seeing this, I stepped forward to help him, and he stood firm, and the old man seemed to want to say something to them, but they were forced to put up with it because their attitude was too bad.
Seeing that the old man didn't bother anymore, his face looked a little better, so he turned his head and said to Chu Yan with a smile: "Manager Chu, let's go back to the place where we live first, the sun seems to be a little big, let's talk about cooperation when we go back." ”
Chu Yan nodded, and followed them to the villa where they lived, I walked at the back, and before I could take a few steps, my arm was pulled from behind, and I looked back and found that it was the old man.
"Uncle, do you have anything else?" Thinking about the conversation he had with the two of them just now, I guessed that he should have come to ask for money, and now he should be pulling me to help him talk.
"Young man, are you here to buy a house?" The old man didn't mention anything about helping, but just pulled me and asked.
"I'm not." I looked at the wrinkles on his face, thinking that it was not easy for him to be so old and have to work hard for money, so I patiently answered him.
"It's good if it's not, it's good if it's not, young man, I see that you have a good heart, so I'll remind you, don't look at the big and beautiful house here, but don't buy it." The old man whispered to me.
"Why?" I thought something was strange, so I asked.
The old man hesitated, as if he was thinking about whether to tell me, but was seen by the two people in charge, and one of them walked over quickly and said to the old man unceremoniously: "What are you still doing here, go quickly." ”
The old man had no choice but to leave under his urging, and I watched him slowly walk away with his body bent over, and I was very curious about what he had not said.
The person in charge who drove the old man away saw that I was still looking at the back of him leaving, and a smile appeared on his face, and said to me: "This person is cleaning here, he doesn't do a good job, and he is very anxious to ask for money, you don't pay attention to him, he is old and his brain is a little difficult." ”
He was all belittling the old man, I was curious but didn't ask much, even if he asked this kind of question, he wouldn't really answer me.
I followed the person in charge back to the villa, Chu Yan and the others had already sat down inside, and talked about cooperation again, and the two left here.
Soon after, a middle-aged aunt came to cook for us with vegetables, and she said that the two people in charge asked her to come.
I have to say that they are still very thoughtful, there is no restaurant here to invite people to cook, it seems that the sincerity of signing a contract with us is very high.
Shen Wei sighed like this, but I don't think it's so simple, what happened last night, what the old man said to me today, and the attitude of the two people in charge, all made me feel that this place has an indescribable weirdness.
The dishes cooked by the cooking aunt taste good, I haven't eaten much since last night, and I ate a few more bowls when I smelled the aroma of this dish.
When my aunt came to clean up after dinner, I talked to her for a few words, and learned that she had been here to cook since the construction of this villa began, and I thought that she had been here for so long, maybe she would know some inside information, so I had the idea of talking to her.
