Chapter Ninety-Four: Life is like a play, all about acting

Zhuo Ou's mother let go of cruel words when she left, I don't understand what she means by pointing at me and gritting her teeth to make me wait, and I don't understand that it was her son who yelled at her in the Ming Dynasty, how could she blame me in black and white.

I thought about it for a long time and couldn't understand it, so I sighed deeply, and Zhuo Ou walked to my side with a smile, pulled me into his arms, hugged me, and said, "Why do you see my mother like a little white rabbit seeing a big bad wolf?" I didn't see you in front of me! ”

"Cowardice?" I pretended to be stupid, "Who do you say cowardly?" Are you or my dad? Oh~ You said Xiaoqing? Xiaoqing is a child......"

Zhuo Ou shook his head helplessly, stretched out his index finger and tapped my forehead, "You! It's really a model in the nest. ”

I laughed twice and didn't answer, watching the leaves on the big tree outside the window swaying slowly in the wind, my heart was much more relaxed, and suddenly remembered that Zhuo Ou went out to run errands today, so I asked him: "You saw the eldest brother today, what did he say?" ”

Zhuo Ou glanced down at me and said, "Do you want to find out about the military or about the courtesy exchanges in the mall?" ”

I glanced at him obliquely and said, "Don't you know that my sister used to be in the public relations department?" Gifts in the mall? I'm afraid that you won't be qualified to accept it if I come out of my knees! ”

"Oh~ It's quite a big breath!" Zhuo Ou took a sip of tea and said, "Then do you know why your department can't talk about the project of L Group?" ”

I know very well the case he said, from the beginning to the present, although I have not personally come forward to negotiate business, but my right-hand man has run to the L group no less than ten times, but each time it has been in vain. We have also carefully analyzed the routines of the L Group, but they seem to be determined not to play according to the routines, and all kinds of inexplicable tricks have been exhausted to deal with us, and they are stunned not to settle the project.

I know that their project will start to be implemented a year ago, but it has not yet been decided, and I don't know whether I like us or someone else, which makes our entire project team fearful, which is really a headache.

At the moment, I reached Zhuo Ou's cheek and pecked lightly and asked, "Tell me why, okay?" I'd love to know! ”

Zhuo Ou stretched out his face on the other side again, the meaning was obvious, if he wanted to know, he would kiss again, he often cheated like this, I was used to it.

The matter of the L group is really not as simple as I thought before liking us and not liking us, before this case, the grievances and grievances between them and Mu Shi can be described as intertwined, I came to New York at the time, and the disputes and cooperation between them were not clear, I only heard Xiao Lazy say, that time, the three of them cooperated to bring down the Zhou family's Sihai Group, and then sat together and talked about something she didn't understand, and then went home and asked Brother Xiao Ran, only to know that the three of them who couldn't beat the eight poles actually signed a cooperation agreement, Although it was not officially fair, the three people complied with it and did not let the fourth person know, which led to the sudden acquisition of Sihai Group.

I have always known that Zhou Wei Zhuo Ou is a good friend, almost half a brother, of course I don't believe that Xiao Lazy said that Zhuo Ou also participated in the acquisition of Sihai Group. And it's not good that Zhou Wei helped Zhuo Ou when he bought the shares of Sihai Group, probably because he didn't expect that the person who was his brother would give him a knife in the back, right?

Zhuo Ou and I were silent after talking slowly, which was the key point in the reversal of the plot, and I asked Zhuo Ou anxiously: "Then why did you invite Zhou Wei to eat at home last time?" Could it be that you are working together again, and who do you want to destroy? Otherwise, he is not a fool, you have done a lot of tricks in the collapse of the Sihai Group, can't he find out that you are still a good brother? ”

"Good brother? Who told you we were good brothers? He asked with interest as he looked at me playfully.

I was stunned for a moment and asked, "Isn't it?" ”

He shook his head and said, "How did I teach you before?" How can I even forget the shopping mall scene where seeing is not necessarily believing, and hearing is not necessarily false! ”

I pouted and said: "How did I know that your acting skills are so good, it's just fake, if you hadn't married me and were willing to have a child with me, I really thought you and Zhou Wei were a real couple!" ”

He reached out and gently pinched my pursed lips and said with a smile: "Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills." Then he smiled and stood up.

I followed him with my head held high, and I watched him walk into my father's room and never thought to contradict him.

Really! Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills!

The day before I returned to New York, I called Brother Xiao Ran to confirm the situation, Brother Xiao Ran was polite to me, probably I was shopping with Xiao Lazy a few days ago to accompany Xiao Lazy to be happy, he actually allowed me to go directly to his house to find him, you know, usually he is only willing to see the company's people in the company office, in case there is anything urgent must see him, he will also go to the company as soon as possible, of course, I am an exception, because I am both a person in the company and half of his family, but before the matter with Zhuo Ou was in a uproar, Brother Xiao Ran is also very disgusted with my stubbornness, and has caused a lot of unpleasantness, I know this.

I took Xiaoqing with me, Zhuo Ou was busy to meet a customer, let me come first, just entered the door and heard a child crying in wah, the voice is like a girl, I thought about it, I think it may be a lazy daughter, I rang the doorbell and waited for her to open the door only to find out, it turned out to be a little girl of three or four years old, extremely cute, big eyes and round yoyo, I asked only to know that it was the daughter of the vice president of Qi, as soon as I entered the door, she saw Xiaoqing in my arms immediately stopped crying, walked quickly to me and opened her mouth and said: "Yes, yes, yes." ”

I didn't understand whether she wanted the bag in my hand or Xiaoqing, but Xiao Lazy said very understandingly: "She likes Xiaoqing and wants to play with Xiaoqing." ”

I hurriedly squatted down and put Xiaoqing on the ground, although Xiaoqing's little short legs can also walk a few steps, but it is not stable, I am a little uneasy, he gently protects, how do I know that Xiaoqing said: "You don't have to protect Xiaoqing, she will take care of the baby, my girl has been coaxed to sleep by her, I don't know if the girl is not cute, she likes to coax her to sleep as soon as she comes, and she is very happy to see your Xiaoqing!" Definitely love playing with him. ”

I naturally felt a lot more relieved when I heard her say this, and let go of Xiaoqing and asked: "She hasn't seen Xiaoqing before, where can she say that she likes it, it may be the child's curiosity about strange things." ”

I thought about it and felt that it seemed that the purpose of my coming here was not this, so I asked Xiao Lazy, "Where is Brother Xiao Ran?" I'm looking for something about him. ”

Xiao Lazy probably knew that I had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, pointed to the study upstairs and said, "Su Mu and Su Lin are pestering his father to ask him to teach them to read stocks!" I was so troubled by them that I had to let them go. ”

I smiled and shook my head and said: "If you don't teach them now, you will know that you will regret it when they are self-taught in the future, and you will not quickly establish your image when you will not be able to, and in the future, you are afraid that you will only have the opportunity to be despised!" ”

Xiao Lazy didn't get angry when he heard me say this, but just smiled and laughed at himself and said, "I still have to wait for it!" Now the three of them started laughing at me together, saying that my IQ was worrying, and I was thinking, I was also a college graduate, how could I be reduced to two elementary school children saying that my IQ was worrying? Besides, my little girl is still a baby, isn't her IQ necessarily higher than mine? ”

I listened to her words and leaned back with laughter, and the little lazy gesture was about to hit me, so I hurriedly ran upstairs, saying as I ran: "You compare your IQ with a child, isn't this a matter of IQ?" Haha~"

She didn't come to chase me, she snorted and sat on the sofa, the two children stood in front of her and looked at her, the little girl laughed first, and Xiaoqing laughed with the audience, I think, the little lazy must be so angry that the top of his head is smoking, right? But that doesn't matter, it won't burn me, because I'm already in the study.

The two twin sons of Brother Xiao Ran's family, Su Mu and Su Lin, are really the most curious children I have ever seen, a long time ago, we met at a drinking party, and when they called me Auntie, I knew that these two children would not be ordinary children.

That night, Zhuo Ou, Xiao Lazy and Xiao Ran were all there, at that time I was arguing with Zhuo Ou and had an awkward quarrel, and they never reconciled, they didn't know where they got the information, leaning on my side and asking me if I wanted to teach Zhuo Ou a lesson. I was in a bad mood and drank two glasses of red wine before I got up, and my willpower was not firm for a while, so I nodded and said 'yes', and then Su Lin sent Su Mu to grab Zhuo Ou's trouser leg and call him dad.

I thought that Zhuo Ou would expose Su Mu's trick at once, so I thought that if he blew the face of the two children, I would go up and scold him! But he didn't, and I didn't have a chance.

There were a lot fewer beauties around him that day, but there were still girls who were not afraid of being stepmothers who came forward to look for him, I was angry and went to the back garden, who knew that he seemed to have clairvoyance, and quickly came over and talked to me......

"Don't aunt!"

"Godmother!"

I was interrupted by two calls, and I heard Brother Xiao Ran say, "Why are you calling differently?" Didn't you say that the twins had a good heart? Why can't you even unify the name? Then I don't think it's useful to teach you to learn this, in case you buy something different from the other party in the future, you will lose twice as much once, and you can't make ends meet. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, I saw Su Lin holding his head high and asking, "What do you mean by not making ends meet, Dad?" ”

I think this doll is cuter than Su Mu, at least although he has a high IQ now, he is only very high in the local area, and it is still a normal level in other fields, and normal children are cute!

Actually... I just did all that nonsense! Where is there any normal child cuteness to say! It's just because the godmother screams well!

Compared with the lovely Su Lin, Su Mu is very mature, he changed from the posture of just lying on his stomach to the standing posture and said confidently: "Because when we were born, Aunt Don't give a red envelope, my mother said that those who don't give red envelopes are not considered godmothers, although I don't agree with the statement that money defines relationships, but I think that at least godmothers should be as good to us as mothers, selfless dedication people, not just anyone can be a godmother." Dad, look at Aunt Don't look at it again, she comes to our house all year round for only a handful of times, of course, she has nothing to do during the period when she is out of love, and it doesn't count when she comes to my house every day, do you think she can still be my godmother? ”

In the steaming summer, I only felt cold sweat on my forehead, embarrassed, and could only laugh.

But, ginger is really old and spicy!

Brother Xiao Ran listened as quietly as I did, but he didn't have any rebuttal as quietly as me, he tilted his head and asked Su Lin: "Xiao Lin, do you think my brother's statement is correct?" ”

I thought that Su Lin would not answer, but I didn't expect him to shake his head quickly, he said: "My brother is right to say that feelings should not be measured by money, but it is wrong for him not to recognize the identity of his godmother because he has no time to come to see him!" I remember that my mother didn't say what he said, and besides, my mother also said that a godmother is a godmother, a godmother for one day and a godmother for life. My brother also said that my godmother should be good to us like my mother, so if my godmother is really the same as my mother, then we won't be out of breath at all, I don't think it's good, my godmother should be different from my mother, I can't care about us too much, but it can help us realize some of our wishes that we don't have for the time being, so it's good, so that mom and godmom perform their respective duties, and we will be happier. ”

I listened to his high hat, although my face was happy, my hand unconsciously touched the hundreds of dollars that my father stuffed into my pocket before going out, and asked with a dry smile: "What wish does Xiao Lin want to fulfill?" ”

As soon as Su Lin heard my question, he immediately looked at me with a smile and said unceremoniously: "Godmother said last time that she would buy me a full set of limited edition Transformers, remember?" ”

I scratched my hair, and when I was mentally calculating how much that Transformers would cost, Surin immediately reported a long list of numbers, which is good! You can't escape if you want to!

I caught a glimpse of Su Mu on the side who was also laughing, and when I turned to him, his smile disappeared from his face, and quickly, very quickly! I suddenly thought of what Zhuo Ou said, it is really true, life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills!

Fortunately, Brother Xiao Ran coughed lightly twice and got back to business, he asked the two children to go out and bring the door to him, and invited me to sit on the stool next to him.

Probably because I rarely get so close to him, I vaguely remember the last time I was so close or I didn't know what happened between me and Zhuo Ou at that time, he said that he wanted to buy the shares of Zhuo Ou shoe store, I think he had more money and no place to spend, but I didn't expect that now, Zhuo Ou's shoes have made a brand, and it is very popular in the market, and they have also set purchase restrictions, limiting the number of buyers and the number of purchases, a series of business methods to earn high profits so that his shoe stores have opened ten branches in the world!

Sometimes when I joked with Zhuo Ou that I was going to buy his shares, he always taunted me and said that he knew that I would not have such a long-term vision, so he was relieved to open a shoe store so that I could not find him in a hurry! Look, look, what a sinister intention!

Brother Xiao Ran may have seen that I was a little embarrassed sitting next to him, so he jokingly asked me, "What's wrong?" After giving birth, do you remember to draw a line with me? ”

I frowned slightly at him, "What line is drawn?" ”

He smiled and pointed to the distance between us where there was still one person standing and said, "There are two more people standing in between, are you going to ask Xiao Lan and Zhuo Ou to stand together to show their innocence?" ”

I sighed helplessly, moved the chair to the chair next to him and said, "Actually, it's a psychological shadow, and it's your fault!" You didn't tell me that the general manager of the American branch was Zhuo Ou, I sat on his stool, he was so close to me, and he was very domineering and didn't let me correct my mistakes, and I didn't like to be close to people anymore. ”

Brother Xiao Ran smiled faintly, shook his head and didn't make a sound, and showed me a trend chart in three times and two times, pointed to one of the lines and said: "The L group is not a simple business group, they also include many military enterprises, although I don't quite believe that this is the real situation, but you see the trend of this line, it is almost exactly the same as the L group, and the person I sent to investigate the situation also gave me relevant information to confirm my conjecture, I suspect that their project is not just about their internal affairs, So their caution may not be what they want. ”

I muttered in wonder: "Military industry? Or are there many? ”

Brother Xiao Ran nodded and called up the planning plan we prepared, but there were many places marked on it, I took a closer look, it turned out to be a variety of modifications, extremely detailed and specific, I think, if you want to be lazy, just accept it all, copy the same as in the past!

He said: "This is my opinion with Qi Dong, last night Xiao Lazy and I reviewed it together, and it became what it is now, if you think you have no ideas, you can refer to me, but I need to tell you that my understanding of the leaders of the L Group is not as deep as Zhou Wei and Zhuo Ou, my opinions and Qi Dong's opinions can only be given to you for reference, but whether it is suitable or not depends on your own judgment." ”

I looked closer and asked, "Why are all the configurations the highest ones?" If we calculate it that way, we have almost no surplus at all, and we will have to lose money if we don't do it, and you are still so keen on this business? ”

Brother Xiao Ran smiled lightly, noncommittal, stood up and walked to the bookcase, took a document and handed it to me, and said, "Look at this, in the contract between L Group and our Mushi, there is almost nothing we can take advantage of, but Qi Dong and I both advocate signing it." ”

"Why?"

"Why? Can't you see that the government is behind the L group, if we don't give them benefits, and don't say that our Mushi branch in the United States is in danger, I'm afraid that the domestic company will not be stable! ”

I asked, "Really?" Why don't I think they're that strong? I made this plan, and I also sent someone to investigate! ”

Brother Xiao Ran smiled faintly, leaned back in the chair and said: "Xiao Li, although your gaze is more unique and long-term among the women I know, have you ever thought about it, if you really know everything, why can't you expect the plan between me and Zhuo Ou, you don't know about Xiao Lazy to open a company, and you don't even know that L Group was almost acquired by us in partnership?" ”

I was dumbfounded by his series of questions, and it took me a long time to recover, and I swallowed my saliva and whispered, "You... Planning to acquire L Group? ”

Brother Xiao Ran nodded with a smile, and said: "Although the L group looks very big, there is only one real leader, and that person once wanted to snatch the little lazy, you say, can I not attack them?" Is it better to wait for his wife to be snatched away, and in the end he will be empty? ”

"How did I hear that it was you, Zhuoou and L Group who acquired the Sihai Group together? How has it changed now? ”

Brother Xiao Ran sighed helplessly, "I just said, your vision is still not long-term, do you know the purpose of our acquisition of Sihai?" ”

I shook my head, and then added another question: "I'm still curious why you bought Sihai Group and dared to let Zhou Wei go to work in Mushi, and let him control so much, aren't you afraid that he will retaliate and rebel every minute?" ”

Brother Xiao Ran didn't smile this time, but his face became a little serious, and he asked, "What did you say?" Zhou Wei into Mushi? When? How did I not know? ”

I looked at him in amazement, as if I really didn't know.

I hurriedly said: "I didn't know before, or they said that Zhuo Ou was squeezed out of the stage during the period when I knew that Zhou Wei became the general manager of the American branch because he held more shares than Zhuo Ou." ”

"And then?"

"And then? Then I came back, Zhuo Ou didn't come to me for a long time, and when I went back again, Zhou Wei had already gotten down from the position of general manager, I thought he was driven away, who knew that some time ago I found out that he was actually just demoted, but he was still staying in the American branch of Mushi. ”

I watched Brother Xiao Ran's brows furrow deeper and deeper, so I was careful not to ask out loud: "Why, you don't know about this?" ”

Brother Xiao Ran pursed his lips, shook his head and said, "I don't know about this." Zhuo Ou, it's just too nonsense! ”

I pouted, not knowing whether to refute or comfort, or simply to leave it alone.

Brother Xiao Ran didn't speak for a long time, then got up and went to get the mobile phone number by the windowsill, and after the phone was connected, I heard him say, "Send a list of employees of the American branch of Mousse to my mailbox." ”

He sat down next to me again and asked, "Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" What is the situation of the U.S. branch now? Did Zhou Wei participate in this project of L Group? ”

I asked curiously, "Do you think Zhou Wei will be a threat to our Mushi?" ”

Brother Xiao Ran shook his head and said: "I'm not sure about this kind of thing, but at least if he hasn't made a move now, and we can succeed in this case of the L Group, it can only show that he is not interested in this case." ”

I frowned, and suddenly some worry arose in my heart, "Is there a problem with Zhuo Ou still trusting him like that?" Shall I go back and persuade Zhuo Ou? ”

Brother Xiao Ran looked at the screen and suddenly smiled, "No, I have someone who can narrow Zhou Wei'......"
