Chapter 240: A Friend of the Year
The memorial service to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Fang Chengzhi's death was held as scheduled, Zhuo Xiangyu took Xu Yueqing, Zhuo Nianqi and Fang Zhilan as Fang Wenguo's righteous son to receive guests at the memorial service, Zhuo Xiangyu took advantage of the break to ask Fang Zhilan, "Have all the friends who had a good relationship with the fourth uncle in the past been there?" ”
Fang Zhilan shook her head, "There are a few people who have a very good relationship with the fourth uncle and haven't come, but they should be here in a while!" ”
"I have a very good relationship with the fourth uncle, but I didn't come?" Fang Zhilan's words caused Zhuo Xiangyu to ponder.
Lin's Group.
A knock on the door made the man sitting in the boss's chair in the president's office stop the pen in his hand, and when he saw the knocker's personal secretary, the man subconsciously glanced at the watch on his wrist, and then asked in a deep voice: "What's the matter?" ”
The young and beautiful female secretary smiled slightly, but replied very formulaically, "Mr. Lin, the 20th anniversary memorial service held by Fang's Group for Fang Siye has begun, when do you think you will leave?" ”
The man's brows furrowed because of the female secretary's words, and then nodded, "Go straight now!" ”
After the figure of the female secretary disappeared outside the door, the man rubbed his eyebrows helplessly, obviously worried about the next trip.
People have been dead for 20 years, and what are they still tossing?
Cursing in a low voice, the man got up and walked out of the door, no matter how reluctant he was, he couldn't figure out what the purpose of the Fang family was holding this memorial service. But as Fang Chengzhi's best friend before his death, he must participate in it in a reasonable way.
As soon as Lin Weiguan appeared at the memorial service, Zhuo Xiangyu locked his complicated gaze on him, and his eyes looked up and down on him like a searchlight.
Before the white rose in Lin Weiguan's hand was sent to Fang Chengzhi's huge posthumous portrait, he keenly felt the gaze of the scrutiny, and offered the white rose in his hand, he quietly glanced at Zhuo Xiangyu's direction, but the eyes of the two were just right.
Zhuo Xiangyu smiled politely at him, Lin Weiguan was stunned at first, and then nodded politely.
"Emma, who is that gentleman at one o'clock in my direction?" Lin Weiguan bowed his head slightly and asked the female secretary who was following him.
The female secretary looked at the person her boss pointed to without a trace, and then quickly came to a conclusion, "It is said that it is Mr. Fang Wenguo's righteous son, because Fang Siye's chase will deliberately rush over from the mainland." ”
"Mainlanders?" Lin Weiguan's heart suddenly had a bad premonition, and he was stopped by a business partner who came to mourn just as he wanted to leave the scene with the female secretary.
"Mr. Lin, I really didn't expect you to come to the memorial service with a busy person."
Lin Weiguan was silent with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but he heard the other party playing a round by himself, "Ah! Look at my memory, how did I forget, Mr. Lin and Fang Siye were former friends. ”
Lin Weiguan's face immediately turned cold, but the corners of his mouth were hooked for a moment, "I don't know how the Fang family suddenly remembered to hold a memorial service for Cheng Zhi?" ”
The other party shook his head and said that he didn't know, but he still cautiously came to Lin Weiguan's side and said his guess, "At the beginning, the fourth master died in a hurry, and the funeral was not a big deal, it is estimated that the fifth master is now in power and wants to make up for his own brother's scenery!" ”
Lin Weiguan snorted coldly, and then left the chase meeting under the pretext that he had something to do.
After a memorial service, the five people felt tired, especially Zhuo Nianqi, because he was so good at inquiring about the news, he almost never stopped running around the venue.
Because there are more or less gains, even if they are tired, several people gather in the living room, and each proposes a candidate who can continue the investigation.
When everyone else said the goal of the investigation, Zhuo Xiangyu chose to be silent, and under Xu Yueqing's questioning, he coldly spit out a person's name, "Lin Weiguan." ”
As soon as this name was proposed, several people shook their heads one after another, only Zhuo Nianqi echoed his opinion. Xu Yueqing couldn't help but sweep her curious gaze over the two of them.
Although Lin Weiguan's performance at the memorial service was incomprehensible, he made me doubt him when he talked to people, and he and the fourth uncle can be regarded as close friends. But when others mentioned his relationship with the fourth uncle, he suddenly changed his face, and his reluctance to talk more about the death of the fourth uncle made it even more suspicious, he was afraid that others would ask him something, such as the cause of the fourth uncle's death. ”
Zhuo Xiangyu's inference said that several people present nodded again and again, and finally Xu Yueqing asked: "Then according to what you said, the biggest breakthrough is this Lin Weiguan!" Do you think that none of the few people we think can be investigated is feasible? ”
Zhuo Xiangyu nodded, "These people you are talking about, although they know about the fourth uncle's trip to the mainland, they don't necessarily know more. Moreover, they are all so similar that it makes me wonder if someone deliberately said something in front of them in order to mislead our investigation. ”
When Zhuo Nianqi was analyzing Zhuo Xiangyu's head, he neatly checked all the news about Lin Weiguan on the Internet, and Fang Zhengzhi also fell into a short contemplation.
"I remember him, Lin Weiguan does have a good relationship with the fourth brother, the two of them grew up together and went to school together, and after graduation, Lin Weiguan joined the Lin Group because he was the only son in the family. He also invited the fourth brother to be his partner at work, but the fourth brother still chose to enter the Fang family to assist the third brother. However, they still maintain good contact after work, and they often go out for drinks together. I remember that before the fourth brother went to Hong Kong, he often went out for a drink with him, and every time he came back drunk, the third brother was still angry about it. I think if the fourth brother really told others about his trip to the mainland, he should be the only one. ”
Fang Zhengzhi's words made several people see hope, and Xu Yueqing's eyes lit up even more, "Since Lin Weiguan is a new breakthrough, why don't we ask him out and ask, maybe he really knows what happened back then!" ”
I'm afraid that as soon as we explain our intentions, Mr. Lin will change his face and leave directly.
Zhuo Xiangyu's face was full of disapproval, but when he saw that Xu Yueqing was extremely interested in the investigation and was reluctant to extinguish her flame of hope, he finally chose not to say anything.
Since she thinks this solution works, it doesn't hurt to let her try!
After some discussion by several people, Fang Zhengzhi finally asked Lin Weiguan to meet, accompanied by Fang Zhilan. As for the Zhuo family's family of three, in the eyes of others, they are outsiders, since they are talking about the Fang family's family affairs, they "outsiders" naturally have to avoid suspicion and can't appear at the scene of the conversation in a bright and honest manner.
But the matter of meeting Lin Weiguan was not as simple as they thought, even if Fang Zhengzhi failed to make an appointment with Lin Weiguan in the name of Fang Chengzhi's brother. Whether it was intentional or unintentional, being rejected by Lin Weiguan so many times, several people noticed that Lin Weiguan didn't seem to want to have anything to do with the Fang family, and this discovery made several people feel helpless.
Lin Weiguan's repeated refusal made Zhuo Xiangyu interested, and when everyone was disappointed and didn't know what way to meet Lin Weiguan, he said lightly, "In the name of my Zhuo's enterprise, let Qingqing ask Mr. Lin out, I believe this time will be successful." ”
"But ......"
Zhuo Xiangyu stretched out his index finger and pressed it against Xu Yueqing's lips, shook his head at her, and then patted her hairy head.
Lin's Group.
"Knock knock—"
The knock on the door sounded in the empty and quiet office, and Lin Weiguan didn't raise his head, "If someone from the Fang family asks me again, I will say that I am not there when I go abroad." ”
Emma, the secretary, silently handed the small note from the front desk in her hand to Lin Weiguan's desk, "This is sent by Ms. Xu, who claims to be a representative of Zhuo's enterprise." ”
Tomorrow at twelve o'clock at noon, Lin's downstairs café.
Lin Weiguan raised his head and glanced at the contents of the small note, and then threw out a question suspiciously, "Zhuo's enterprise? ”
Emma nodded, "Yes, the Zhuo Enterprise in the mainland, its family is also the man who attended the memorial service of Mr. Fang Wenguo's righteous son. ”
Lin Weiguan silently bent his fingers and knocked on the table, a dull sound made people's hearts tremble, seeing that he hadn't made an idea for a long time, Emma asked in a low voice, "Do you want to refuse?" ”
Lin Weiguan raised the small note in his hand and snorted coldly, "How can you refuse?" "Throw a small note and run away, is it possible to ask someone to call Zhuo's thousands of miles away to refuse?
Emma stopped talking, but saw that her boss, who had always been determined, actually put the small note in the drawer.
Does this mean that you agreed to go to the appointment?
Emma was stunned for a while, but received a signal from her boss to let her out, so she could only turn around and leave in confusion.
Lin Weiguan took out the small note again and read it several times, people who can write such flamboyant handwriting must be very smart! Also, if you are not smart, how can you come up with such a way to date him?
His eyes fell on the sofa not far away, and he seemed to see the figure of that person again, and sighed lightly, "It's not that I don't help you hide it, I'm just afraid...... Now I can't hide it! ”
Lin Weiguan came to the café downstairs of the Lin family as promised, but he didn't see Zhuo Xiangyu, who asked him out, it was the uncle and nephew of the Fang family who were present.
Lin Weiguan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, there was no wave on his face, and he was not ambiguous when he sat in front of the two, and opened his mouth directly, "The two of you have worked so hard to ask me to say anything!" ”
The two glanced at each other, they both liked Lin Weiguan's cheerful personality, and Fang Zhengzhi opened his mouth, "Then we won't go around in circles to delay Mr. Lin's time, we came today to ask Mr. Lin if you know the inside story of the fourth brother's trip to the mainland ten years ago." ”
