Chapter 101: Let's Make a Bet
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, Mencius finally admitted defeat, "Okay, okay, I said." Isn't it just that my dad said to let me go to work in the company, and I don't want to go? That's why I want to ask you for some experience......"
"Inexperienced." Huo Jingyuan took a sip of wine, and his words were extremely smooth.
Wu Shan immediately echoed: "You don't know what kind of person Jing Yuan is, he went to the company for an internship when he was in high school, and he took over the company directly when he came back from studying abroad, why did you ask him this?" β
Yao Shuangshuang, who hadn't spoken for a while, also nodded in agreement.
Meng Zizhao immediately slumped his shoulders, "So I have no way to do it?" β
The others leaned on the table, looking a little miserable, and after a while, they looked at Huo Jingyuan again, "Young master, our brothers for so many years, you can't die without help, young master!" β
Just talking about it doesn't count, his hand also grabbed the void in the direction of Huo Jingyuan, as if he wanted to grasp his life-saving straw.
Huo Jingyuan raised his eyebrows, "I like to see death without help." β
The miserable expression on Meng Zizhao's face was instantly cleaned, and the whole person sat up suddenly, looking at Huo Jingyuan with a resentful expression.
But Huo Jingyuan didn't care at all, and drank wine leisurely.
Meng Zizhao glared at him, turned to Sun Yao next to him, and immediately smiled again, "You won't be so ruthless with him, right?" You'd better talk......"
"Of course." Sun Yao put down the wine glass, leaned forward, "I don't even see it." β
"......" Mencius thought that he might have made two fake friends.
Raising his neck and pouring himself a glass of wine, he was quite unconvinced: "Sun Yao, when your grandfather didn't agree with you coming to Jiangcheng, I helped you say the favor, you ......"
"Ahh Before Meng Zizhao's words could be spoken, Yao Shuangshuang beside him suddenly screamed.
Thinking that something had happened to Yao Shuangshuang, Meng Zizhao hurriedly hugged her in his arms with a nervous face, "Daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Isn't it choking? β
Wu Shan took a shallow sip of wine, thinking that Mencius Zhao might be blind.
The juice in front of Yao Shuangshuang didn't even move, how could he choke?
Yao Shuangshuang took off his headphones and handed the phone to Huo Jingyuan, "Look, is he talking about the girl you brought over that day?" β
Huo Jingyuan, who lowered his eyes, fell his gaze to the mobile phone screen in front of him.
The well-mannered man faced countless microphones, and after a moment of silence, his voice was leisurely, with expectation and appreciation: "Ruoqing is such an excellent girl, I think many people will like it." β
Huo Jingyuan frowned, stretched out his slender index finger, touched the screen with his fingertips, and exited the video.
This is a very popular video app nowadays, and many people have it on their mobile phones.
Huo Jingyuan clicked into the comment box on the right side of the screen, and soon the screen jumped to the comment area, and rows of comments appeared in his sight:
[Still say nothing?] This is clearly a confession in disguise, right? Did he admit that his relationship with Qiao Ruoqing was abnormal? γ
[Who is this?] I watch funny videos, why are you pushing me this? γ
[A lot of people will like it, including him, right? This boy is quite reserved. γ
[You may not know this person, let me popularize science: This is the male protagonist of the hot news in Jiangcheng in the past two days, and he is suspected of having a close relationship with Qiao Ruoqing, the female president of a wealthy family, and Qiao Ruoqing also has an ambiguous fiancΓ©, there is a good show! ] γ
Huo Jingyuan's eyebrows frowned deeper.
Fun? Watch Qiao Ruoqing's good show?
He reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone to make a call.
Noticing his movements, Wu Shan hurriedly grabbed his sleeve, "Jing Yuan, what are you going to do?" β
Yao Shuangshuang quietly took his mobile phone back, plugged in the headphones and continued to swipe the screen, but his eyes glanced here from time to time.
Huo Jingyuan didn't care about Wu Shan, and pulled his sleeve out of Wu Shan's hand as soon as he moved his hand, and when he found Cheng Han's number, he was about to dial it out.
Seeing that Huo Jingyuan's fingertips were about to touch the screen soon, Wu Shan didn't care about anything else, and raised her voice: "If you let Cheng Han deal with this matter now, it will only bring trouble to Qiao Ruoqing!" β
Huo Jingyuan stopped his movements and looked at her.
Touching Huo Jingyuan's eyes, Wu Shan pursed her lips, "I know you want to help Qiao Ruoqing, but this matter has nothing to do with you, now Qiao Ruoqing has been said on the Internet to be involved with two men, if you help her at this time, it will be harming her at all." β
Sun Yao held Erlang's legs, there was no superfluous expression on his face, he just stared at the wine in the cup, and his voice was very soft: "Miss Wu is right, Mr. Huo, if you really want to help Miss Qiao, don't do anything now, otherwise she won't be able to say clearly." β
The strength in Huo Jingyuan's hand loosened.
Can't tell? Qiao Ruoqing and Wei Ran are classmates, and they also broke up with Song Mingyuan, what is not clear?
However, the last time she was in the hospital, Qiao Ruoqing made Song Mingyuan mistaken, and Song Mingyuan might now think that she was preparing to accept him again.
At this time, he intervened, as if it was not very good.
Putting down the phone, Huo Jingyuan tilted his neck and poured a whole glass of wine into his stomach.
Mencius Zhao took a deep breath.
The last time I drove the car, a big man was still yelling for juice, but today it's a lot more straightforward.
Pushing the juice in front of Yao Shuangshuang, Mencius Zhao coaxed softly: "Daughter-in-law, don't keep looking at your phone, come, drink something." β
Yao Shuangshuang glanced at him, then at Huo Jingyuan, pushed the juice in front of Meng Zizhao, and said in a low voice: "You drink, if Jingyuan gets drunk for a while, you can drive him back." "Pen in Chinese
Mencius Zhao: "? β
β¦β¦
Huo Jingyuan really drank a little too much.
Although he was not completely drunk, Mencius Zhao only drank a glass of wine in the end under the supervision of Yao Shuangshuang, so for the sake of Huo Jingyuan's safety, he acted as Huo Jingyuan's driver.
Glancing sideways at the man sitting beside him, Mencius sighed and frowned again, "I said, are you serious?" β
Huo Jingyuan didn't understand what he meant, and looked at him blankly.
Meng Zizhao patiently explained his question just now: "Are you really in love with Qiao Ruoqing?" β
Huo Jingyuan propped his elbows on the window frame, his palms against his forehead, and squinted slightly.
The neon outside the window is brilliant and gorgeous, and the colors are so colorful that people can't tell whether it's real or not.
"Nope." Huo Jingyuan closed his eyes, "My mother asked me to help her." β
There was a slight tiredness in his voice, but other than that, it was no different than usual.
Mencius smiled, "Aunt knows her?" β
"Acquaintance." Answering Meng Zizhao's question, Huo Jingyuan repeated what he had just said, "My mother asked me to help." β
Mencius Zhao didn't speak.
Huo Jingyuan is a filial son, everyone in the circle knows this.
Children who grow up in a harmonious family, father and son, have always been "other people's children", and they will always be so good.
has a successful career, three views are positive, and extremely filial.
He remembered that Tang Lan did have a little girl he liked very much, because of the relationship between the little girl's mother, but Huo Jingyuan didn't have a good impression of that little girl at all.
So that little girl shouldn't be Qiao Ruoqing.
Then why did Tang Lan ask Huo Jingyuan to help her?
And according to Huo Jingyuan's character, as long as it is something he doesn't want to do, others can't force him at all.
Of course, his family will not force him.
No matter how he thought about it, he felt that Huo Jingyuan was not ordinary to Qiao Ruoqing.
When he arrived at Huo Jingyuan's apartment, Mencius sent the person upstairs and poured him another glass of water and put it in front of him.
The two men sat on the sofa, Meng Zizhao looked at Huo Jingyuan, Huo Jingyuan stared at the mobile phone that was placed on the coffee table, looking a little distressed.
And they didn't call him, and they didn't tell him.
I didn't tell him what happened last time.
She almost lost her life.
stared at Huo Jingyuan for a long time, and finally Mencius Zhao couldn't stand it anymore.
With a dry cough, he leaned forward and put his arms on his knees, "Jing Yuan, if you really like it, then go chase ......"
Huo Jingyuan raised his head and looked at him, his eyes a little dazed.
Mencius Zhao didn't think it was strange, and patiently persuaded: "Women have to rely on coaxing, you see my daughter-in-law, she didn't agree to be with me before, but now?" I am like glue every day, and I can't live without me at all! β
Huo Jingyuan turned his gaze away, unconcealing his contempt.
Mencius felt a little embarrassed.
But no matter how you say it, he is also a person who is used to being despised, so he quickly adjusted his mentality, and patted Huo Jingyuan's arm again, "Listen to me, if you want a daughter-in-law, you can't have a face......"
"I didn't like her." Huo Jingyuan finally spoke, not loud, with a little tiredness.
Mencius sighed, "Everyone is a man, can you deceive me?" Do you think I really believe that my aunt asked you to help her? If you don't have any clues, your aunt will let you help? And when you were in the bar just now, as soon as you saw that Qiao Ruoqing had an accident, you immediately volunteered to help others solve the problem, I haven't seen you care so much about anyone! β
Touching his chin, he spoke up again, "If you really don't admit it, then let's make a bet." β
Huo Jingyuan seemed to be a little interested, lifted his eyelids, and looked at him in a daze, "What are you betting on?" β
"Bet ......" Meng Zizhao dragged his voice, looked up at the ceiling, and snapped his fingers as if he had thought of something for a while, "If you like her, I will privately draw 10% of the projects that our two families will cooperate on in the future." β
Seeing Huo Jingyuan's eyes squinted slightly, Mencius Zhao felt threatened, and hurriedly began to find a reason for himself: "Jingyuan, you also know that it is not easy for me to drag my family and my family, I have to support my wife......"
"Fuck off." Huo Jingyuan spoke up, with impatience.
Mencius Zhao originally thought that he could make some extra money through this bet, and he already felt that he should be nine out of ten, but he didn't expect that it would be such a treatment now.
With a pout, he got up from the couch, "Okay, if you don't bet, you won't bet." But Jing Yuan, as a brother, I will give you a piece of advice, you still have a Wu Shan, if you really don't like Qiao Ruoqing, you'd better stop worrying about her affairs in the future. β
Huo Jingyuan wondered, "What's wrong with Wu Shan?" β
Mencius Zhao didn't speak, closed the door and left.
Huo Jingyuan was lying on the sofa, and the chandelier on the ceiling shook and gave him a headache.
