It seems that the situation is getting more and more serious, and Aunt He has told him that his parents will be back this week, but this has been a week and there is still no news.

Xiao Shang's heart was anxious, but he couldn't help in the slightest, and then he felt that he was usually just a disgruntled fledgling who grew up in a good nest.

After thinking about it, I can't sit still, Uncle Mu will definitely help him, and there are other shareholders, Xiao Shang is thinking about whether to go to Zeng's house. After thinking about it for a long time and weighing the pros and cons, he decided to discuss it with his father and make a rash decision by himself, in case Xiao Hui's bribery was known to more people, it might bring a bigger storm.

Xiao Shang called his father's phone, but no one answered, and he dialed several times, but still no one answered. Called his mother, and it took a long time to be picked up.

"Ahh The mother's pretended relaxed tone still revealed a hint of tiredness.

"Mom, when will you and Dad come back?"

"Originally, I could be back this Monday at the latest, but there are some follow-up things that still require your dad to be in charge," he paused, his tone full of apology, "Ah Shang, I'm sorry, Mom broke her promise." ”

"Mom, is the Guangzhou branch a serious matter?" Xiao Shang didn't want to hide the facts he knew, so he asked Mu Qing directly.

"You... You know it all? ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Shang looked away, looked out the window, and continued, "I went to ask Brother Xiaohui, and he told me everything. Also, Uncle Mu also knew. ”

"Your Uncle Mu Feng has already transferred a sum of funds, there is no problem with the funds, but..." Mu Qing wanted to speak again and again, hesitating, thinking that Xiao Shang was just a student, and telling him this would not add to his troubles.

"I know it all, Mom, you don't have to hide it from me. Did Brother Xiao Hui do something illegal? ”

"Yes, this is very serious, he actually took risks and took advantage of the country's loopholes, I really don't know who gave him such courage." The more Mu Qing spoke, the more excited he became.

"Mom, don't be angry, Brother Xiao Hui just wants to prove it to the uncle, but he is too eager to do it, the point is that Uncle Mu said that someone is behind it. Otherwise, Brother Xiao Hui would not be like this. ”

"Someone has been sent to investigate, this Xiao Hui, when I asked him, I didn't tell the truth, and when it was serious, it was too late, and now I can only get through the relationship to see if I can settle this matter, as for what you said that someone is making trouble behind it, your father and I have already noticed it, but we have been thinking about it for a long time, who will it be?"

"No matter who it is, it's important to save Brother Xiaohui now, I'll try to contact a few uncles to see if I can find a good way!"

"My son has grown up and knows how to share the burden for his parents." Listening to Xiao Shang's words, Mu Qing felt relieved, and the fatigue of these days seemed to disappear without a trace. "But son, don't worry, your father and I have experienced so many winds and waves, are you still afraid of these? Well, don't think too much about it, stay at home and wait for your mother to come back. ”

Mu Qing hung up the phone first, in fact, she just didn't want Xiao Shang to worry, after all, she was only a student studying in school, and she had not experienced the bloody wind of society.

Xiao Hui, who was in trouble, has been in a state of restlessness, seeing that the basket he stabbed is getting bigger and bigger, and he can't sleep well all day long, his father still doesn't know that he embezzled funds and caused such a big loss, if he knew, he would definitely not be able to escape a beating? Since he was a child, his father disciplined himself with the idea of filial piety with a stick, and every time he did something wrong, he would inevitably be beaten by his father. When I think about it, I feel scared. It's just that I'm glad that my uncle covered it all up for himself, and when he learned that the capital chain had been restored, his nervous heart was a little lighter, and the good news was accompanied by bad news. If he finds out that he has paid bribes, this is the most terrible thing and the thing that worries him the most.

For a while, Xiao Hui was like a headless fly, and he didn't know what to do?

When Xiao Hui's father asked him, he ambiguously wanted to deceive his father, but who Xiao Pingling was, he could see at a glance that his son was perfunctory to him.

"Xiao Hui, what's going on with the company that your second uncle asked you to manage?"

His eyes were stern and he looked at Xiao Hui with a fierce look.

Xiao Hui's legs trembled, his eyes dodged, and his voice trembled in response: "No, it's just that the funds haven't been turned around, and the second uncle and second aunt are dealing with these."

"That's it?"

The voice was calm, but skeptical.

"That's really it, Dad, you're thinking too much!" Xiao Hui pretended to be calm, but his heart had already been turbulent.

"But as far as I know, it's not that simple," Xiao Pingling paused and continued to ask, "Did you do something else?" ”

"No, really not, Dad, you believe me."

"Dare to lie, if it's just funds, you can make such a big fuss, and your second uncle and your second aunt haven't come back until now?"

"Dad, it's really not a big deal, maybe the second uncle is dealing with other things." Xiao Hui refused to admit it.

"Really, you can make so much trouble managing a branch!" Xiao Pingling hated that iron could not become steel, sighed, and sat on the sofa, "You still have to learn from me first, and when I think it's okay, let you try it alone, your second uncle just believes in you, so he lets you manage a company." ”

Xiao Hui listened to his father's words, and he felt very uncomfortable, he also hated himself, and he looked down on himself from the bottom of his heart for being so useless. But the matter is not handled by him, and the pressure of these shopping malls naturally cannot be "provoked" by him.

It's just that Xiao Shang, who is bitter and can't use anything.

He was bent on being able to solve problems for his parents, and on the other hand, he thought that Xiong Xia's matter had not been completely resolved, although there was no conflict between the two things, but after all, they were catching up and going hand in hand. For a while, I really didn't have the skills.

The school celebration is getting closer and closer, and as the host, he has to rehearse with his female partner every day, coming and going, and he has less time to see Xiong Xia.

For the first time, he felt the "anxiety and hesitation" that Mu Jingbo often talked about when he was in low spirits, he didn't understand him at that time, and he would always laugh at him, but he didn't encounter anything.

In the school auditorium, the students and teachers preparing for the celebration are all discussing how to make things as perfect as possible. Only Xiao Shang was absent-minded, and the hostess next to him finished the curtain and waited for Xiao Shang to take the next sentence, but after a long time, I didn't hear his voice. Curiously, he turned his head to see what was wrong with his partner, but found that Xiao Shang had been looking at the cue card in his hand and his eyes were motionless, as if he was out of his body.

"Xiao Shang, Xiao Shang?" I couldn't help but remind him softly.

"Huh?" Xiao Shang raised his head at this time, his eyes were blank.

The female partner pointed to the cue card and said, "It's time for you to say the next line." ”

Xiao Shang realized this, hurriedly put the prompt card in front of him, and looked for it for a long time, but he didn't know which sentence he should say.

"I see you're tired too, why don't you rest first?" Seeing his state of confusion at this time, the female partner proposed.

"Well, good!"

Walking to the stage, Xiao Shang sat in the auditorium seat at will, took out the pulse from his bag, and drank with his neck up, feeling more and more uneasy.

"Ahh

Hearing someone calling him, Xiao Shangwen looked out, it was Zhou Rongrong.

Zhou Rongrong wore red and white sports wide-leg pants today, white shoes, and a white short down jacket with small flowers, coupled with her unique soft and slightly curly hair, which could not help but be moved. Many of the boys and girls gathered in the auditorium looked at her in unison. The boys' eyes are full of admiration, and the girls are envious.

Happily rushed to Xiao Shang, Zhou Rongrong also sat next to him, looking timid, I felt pity. Xiao didn't look at her, just lowered his head and fiddled with his phone.

"Ah Shang, are you tired from rehearsals?" Seeing that Xiao Shang ignored him, Zhou Rongrong leaned close to him with his chin in his hands, his eyes blinked, flickering, and with the effect of contact lenses, his eyes looked very big.

"It's fine!" Facing her, he was concise and to the point.

"Is it still the previous Meijia senior sister who is partnering with you?" Zhou Rongrong didn't care about Xiao Shang's perfunctory attitude towards him, and still asked happily.

"You didn't see that?"

Xiao Shang's rhetorical question made Zhou Rongrong finally a little embarrassed, sat up straight, and pouted a little unhappy.

"Ah Shang, can you not have this attitude." complained quietly, lowered his head, and didn't look at Xiao Shang.

Xiao Shang stopped looking at his phone, turned his head to look at her, and felt that he was a little too cold. But he's still him, and he really won't say anything particularly warm.

"I'm going to rehearse with my senior sister later," the implication is that you can go now.

"Well," Zhou Rongrong knew that this was his eviction order, and when he just wanted to get up and leave, he thought of something, turned his head to him, and asked, "Ah Shang, is Aunt Mu in Guangzhou and hasn't come back yet?" ”

Xiao Shang was surprised, how could she know??

Sensing Xiao Shang's question, Zhou Rongrong hurriedly said, "You know that my dad also has a company in Guangzhou, and besides, my dad has already let me get in touch with some things in the business field, so I know a little bit about some things that happen in Guangzhou." ”

"What do you know?" Xiao Shang immediately asked her, looking nervous.

Looking at his vigilant face, Zhou Rongrong was a little frightened, and replied cautiously, "The lower-level officials in Guangzhou City were investigated for corruption and bribery, and it was involved that it was Aunt Mu and Uncle Xiao's branch..."

"You know all about it." Xiao Shang's tone was frustrated and a hint of exhaustion.

Zhou Rongrong only heard his words, and only raised his head to look at Xiao Shang for a long time, and saw that he was preoccupied, and felt distressed for a while. Busy changed his relaxed tone: "But don't worry, Aunt Mu and Uncle Xiao will definitely take care of it." ”

Xiao Shang didn't speak, just nodded mechanically.

The hostess on the stage was calling him, and Xiao Shang cheered up and walked to the stage.

Zhou Rongrong walked on the road alone, thinking about Xiao Shang's lost soul, he felt very distressed, even if Xiao Shang ignored her. Feelings seem to be so unfair, even if it's your intimate greeting, the person who doesn't understand your mood will say that you are not idle! But what then? She likes him, she has liked him since she was a child, even if a moth fights a fire, she is willing to eat it.

Thinking of what his father inadvertently revealed, Zhou Rongrong couldn't help but call his father.

"Dad", after the phone was connected, he went straight to the point, "How is the matter with Ah Shang's family in the Guangzhou branch, is it serious?" ”

Zhou Jianzhang listened to his daughter's words, and couldn't help but want to laugh, and finally took the initiative to call himself or ask Xiao Shang.

"It's serious if it's serious, it's not serious if it's not serious."

"Oh, Dad," listening to Zhou Jianzhang's words, Zhou Rongrong raised his head and rolled his eyes, "Don't sell it, say it quickly!" ”

"Okay, my precious girl, don't worry."

"Can you not be in a hurry? Ah Shang was all overwhelmed. Zhou Rongrong complained.

"What's so good about that kid on Xiao Shang!!" Thinking of Xiao Shang's father Xiao Pingsheng, Zhou Jianzhang suddenly looked solemn.

"I don't care, you are not allowed to say Xiao Shang!" How could Zhou Rongrong allow his father to say this about the person he liked.

"It's really a big deal," Zhou Jianzhang sighed, "Okay, let me tell you, Xiao Shang's cousin Xiao Hui's imprisonment is inevitable." ”

"So serious?" Zhou Rongrong stopped and listened carefully.

"Yes, there is a lot of evidence for his bribery, and Xiao Shang's father is trying to find someone to reduce his guilt, but I'm afraid he can't afford it."

"Does that have an effect on Uncle Shaw?"

"It's hard to say." Zhou Jianzhang wished that Xiao Pingsheng would not be able to get out of it.

"Okay, I know, Dad," thinking of Xiao Shang, Zhou Rongrong was worried.

"You just like that kid from the Xiao family so much!!" Zhou Jianzhang asked.

"Yes, I like it, I like it!" Zhou Rongrong shouted loudly into her mobile phone, she didn't want her father to disapprove of her feelings.

"Good daughter, you have a long road in the future, you will meet more good boys, there is no need..." Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Rongrong shouted, "I don't care, I just want him!" Objections are invalid! After speaking, he hung up the phone, not wanting to listen to Zhou Jianzhang's broken thoughts anymore.
