Chapter 68: When things go wrong, there must be demons
Su Xiaoqi's farewell without saying goodbye really made Xiao Yi extremely depressed, and what made him even more unhappy was that he felt tormented after only a few days of separation, and he felt uncomfortable at the thought that he would not see her for more than a month, and his anxious mood of course also ignited the atmosphere of the company.
The whole building is shrouded in an oppressive, tense and strange atmosphere, and everyone is walking on thin ice at their own peril......
After the weekly morning meeting, the assistant reported on the upcoming schedule and mentioned Chen Pei's appointment again.
"What about others?"
"This should be waiting in the parlor on the third floor." The assistant looked at his watch and lifted his gold-rimmed glasses, "That's what you mean...... See or don't see. ”
"Let's go, I'm not in the mood." Xiao Yi turned his chair, closed his eyes slightly, and waved his hand impatiently.
"Good ......" The assistant sighed lightly without a trace, this Chen family has come three times, this is really embarrassing for him.
"Wait......"
Xiao Yi suddenly thought of something, Huo Ran got up, "I'll go over in person, you go and get busy." ”
Waiting for the assistant to retreat slightly, Xiao Yi sat down and re-checked several projects in cooperation with the Chen family, and then set his eyes on a headline in Z City many years ago on the notebook browsing page.
"Is it framed, or exposed, is it a brother or an enemy, is it wrongfully imprisoned or deserves it?"
Xiao Yi touched his chin, fell into deep thought, looked at the news date and calculated the time, that person ...... I guess I'm about to be released from prison. And at this juncture, why did Chen Pei visit many times?
The assistant was explaining the increase and decrease of employees in the personnel department, but the mobile phone rang, and as soon as he answered, he heard Xiao Feng shouting urgently, "My brother, the mobile phone can't get through, and the company's landline is also busy." ”
"His phone was charging, and he didn't have it with him. Now I'm talking to the head of the Chen family, is there anything wrong with Ershao? The assistant said calmly, after the last incident, his whole person seemed to have undergone a metamorphosis and baptism, and became stable and mature.
"The Chen family? …… You mean Chen Dongping's old fox? ”
"No, it's Chen Pei."
"Oh...... I almost forgot that now he is nominally the number one in the family business...... But what does he ask my brother to do, isn't it okay to hand over business matters directly to his subordinates? Xiao Feng thought disdainfully, this son-in-law, what else would he do besides eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling.
"I don't know about that, but ...... Ershao, what is the matter with you, I can tell you on your behalf. ”
"Damn, I forgot about business! Tell my brother that my mother's old illness has relapsed, and let him come back quickly. ”
"Good! I'll go right away. ”
The large windows are bright and clean in the living room, soft chairs and sofas, fresh fruit hot tea, and men in suits and leather shoes are looking at the oil paintings on the wall with interest. The sharp and firm eyes reveal a sense of ruthlessness, where is there still a little bit of the old gentleman's appearance.
When Xiao Yi pushed the door in, the extremely alert person suddenly withdrew his gaze and turned into a cynical and oily second ancestor.
"Mr. Xiao is really busy with business, and Chen has avoided many visits."
"It's true that there are a lot of trivial things near the end of the year, but why avoid it. Mr. Chen, you have wronged me. ”
"Hehe, it's Chen's inappropriate wording, Xiao always takes time out of his busy schedule to come to see me, it's not an honor."
"You and I don't have to be so polite, but I have also been classmates."
When Xiao Yi finished saying this, he noticed that Chen Pei's brows were slightly furrowed, his eyes darkened, and the smile on his face cracked for a moment, but it was quickly covered up.
"Yes, at that time, Xiao Yi, you were the dream lover of the girls in the school, the public enemy of the boys in the school, our school flower, Zhou Ruoyao, you were not moved by how many years you have been chasing."
Xiao Yi smiled, "I am not blessed to be a beauty, since ancient times, beauties are worthy of famous generals, talented people are worthy of beautiful women, and now it seems that you are not a match made in heaven." ”
Chen Pei laughed and applauded happily, "I thought that Xiao Yi would be obsessed with Ruoyao's affairs, but I didn't expect you to be so generous, since this is the case, I won't go around the bend with you, and this time I came to you, which is also Ruoyao's idea." ”
"Oh?" Xiao Yi smiled secretly in his heart, I don't want to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, I want to see what kind of demon you can be.
Yin Luo knocked on the door, came in and delivered a cup of hot coffee, bent down and whispered a few words to Xiao Yi, got up and glanced at Chen Pei casually.
"Assistant Yin, you help me take care of the situation first, and I'll go over right away." Xiao Yi frowned and said uneasily.
"Is something wrong? Or else...... Let's go out and eat and talk another day? There are a lot of people here, and I'm embarrassed to open my mouth with you. "Chen Pei is very good at reading people's faces.
"It seems that it's not just as simple as catching up with old classmates...... Xiao Yi's slender legs folded, stabilized his emotions, and took a sip of coffee, "There is no one else here, you don't have to worry." ”
Yin Luo smiled at Chen Pei when he heard this, and went out politely, and closed the door by the way.
"It's worthy of Xiao Yi, the person next to you, the gold medal assistant, is reasonable."
"No, his surname is Yin. (yin, silver)"
Chen Pei was stunned for a moment, then reacted and laughed, "Xiao Yi, people like you who don't smile also have humor cells." ”
"Let's get down to business."
"Hmm...... That's the case, I heard that you are interested in cooperating with Qianlong Company on a project, I don't know what Xiao Yi thinks about this. ”
"Your company's news is spread in all directions, and there is a slight disturbance on my side, don't you all know about it."
"Eh, don't get me wrong, I'm just asking...... Actually, companies like Qianlong abound, or you give me this cooperation project, and we will make an exchange. ”
Xiao Yi silently waited for his next step.
"If you agree, with that project of Mingda Company, we quit."
Xiao Yi smiled, leaned forward and put down the coffee, "Mingda is just a small company with a small name, no matter how bad Qianlong is, it is also a skinny camel bigger than a horse, exchange it with you...... Isn't it a loss-making deal? ”
"Old classmate, if you think about it again, it's obviously a win-win situation." Chen Pei was extremely convinced.
Of course, Xiao Yi knows the meaning of this, although Qianlong is a prestigious large company, but in recent years, it is not ideal to cooperate with it, but Mingda has quietly risen, although the power is not comparable to Qianlong, but the strength may not be the same as the loser. Before that, he was interested in cooperating with Mingda, but he was preempted. Now that the other party has taken the initiative to give in, he will definitely not do loss-making business.
"Xiao Yi, you have thought clearly, although I, Chen Pei, have no ability, I definitely will not harm my old friend."
"Mr. Chen, it's not that I don't believe you as a person, it's just that I have to discuss this matter with the old man, after all, I am not like you, I am the person in charge of the company." Xiao Yi deliberately distanced the distance between the two.
"Okay, Xiao Yi, don't bury me, can't others see it, don't you know, I'm just an empty puppet emperor with no real power. I envy you more than you, the powerful and nameless. ”
Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, and his gaze at Chen Pei was much more complicated, compared to last time, this person was like suddenly being enlightened, no, it was better to say that the ambition was budding, and the wildness had awakened.
"To tell you the truth, those old antiques in the company don't take me seriously at all, rely on the old and sell the old, self-righteous, and the old man in my family doesn't take me seriously, all his thoughts are on my sister, if she is not a girl, there will be nothing to do with me. If I can negotiate this business......" Chen Pei clicked, and the rest of the words can be understood by the other party.
Xiao Yi has also heard about the Chen family's family affairs, but the water in the middle is too deep, and he can't say much, so he can only divert the topic, "I will decide this matter as soon as possible, give you an answer, and ask Mr. Chen not to be impatient." ”
"That'...... Well, I think you're also a sensible person, and my proposal will be beneficial to both of us...... Xiao Yi, you have to think twice. I await your good news. ”
Sending Chen Pei away, Xiao Yi rubbed his eyebrows, this time Chen Pei felt more and more dangerous. His proposal is really heartwarming, and for the Chen family, it is more conducive to the development and foothold of a prestigious large company like Qianlong. And Chen Pei deliberately got close to him, and he directly showdown to reveal the bottom is really just for him to make a difference in the company, or is there another purpose, and this idea is he himself figured out or someone else to guide him.
Outside the Di Ye Building, a champagne-colored Porsche has been waiting for a long time, and the man in the car is wearing black sunglasses, looking at the photo in his hand intently, stroking the person in the photo with his rough fingertips full of calluses, carefully rubbing every inch of the photo like a treasure.
When he turned to the faded or even scratched graduation photo of a junior high school student at the bottom, his face twitched a few times, and he couldn't tell whether he was laughing or crying, and his face became more and more distorted by the scar on his face, and the long scar was like a writhing centipede, and his face was hideous and hateful.
Chen Pei came out of the company and kicked the car door in displeasure. The person in the car woke up from a dream, quickly put the photo in his trouser pocket, got out of the car and opened the rear door for him. Leaning slightly, "Boss, please." ”
"Zou Lin, don't think that you can see no one if you offer a few strategies, I am the master, you are just a servant, remember it for me!"
"The little one doesn't dare, Chen Shao." Zou Lin glanced at the flying and domineering face in the rearview mirror, and grinned disdainfully.
Chen Pei snorted lightly, shook his head from side to side, leaned back comfortably, spread out in large characters like a mess of mud, and urged impatiently, "Drive, idiot, do you still want to grow up here to take root and sprout." ”
"Where does Chen Shao want to go?" Zou Lin suppressed the resentment in his heart and secretly tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
"Go home, fuck, they all say that all women in love are FBI elites, and it's true, Zhou Ruoyao's bitch is in charge of Lao Tzu everywhere, it's really troublesome."
"That'...... Does Chen Shao want to go back to his private villa or ......"
"You dog, you didn't understand what the master said, did you?" Chen Pei's slightly closed eyes opened suddenly, like a cold rattlesnake spraying venom, and his heart was burning, "You said that a stupid and ugly person like you is embarrassed to live in the world." Zhou Ruoyao's mother-in-law is really sick, and she will recommend you to be my driver.
Zou Lin drove steadily, pretending to be deaf and dumb and silent. Leave him alone to talk to himself.
I said...... Have you done anything unseemly behind my back? ”
As soon as these words came out, Zou Lin braked suddenly, and due to inertia, Chen Pei went forward, and was about to scold, but he heard him speak.
"Yes! We did something unsightly behind your back, but Chen Shao, it was definitely a surprise to you, something that could trip the Chen family and bring down Xiao Yi. ”
The red light went out and the street light came on. Zou Lin restarted, and the semantics were unclear, "Chen Shao, you are joking with me like this, and your subordinates brake sharply when they are frightened, in case this is out of control at high speed...... So please ...... Don't be with the small general knowledge. ”
Chen Pei was stunned, frowned unhappily, and was silent. Although this Zou Lin is a driver, his origin is unknown, and he seems to have a deep relationship with the underworld, and he can't get any benefit if he annoys himself. As the saying goes, the barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, in case one day he is ruthless and the net is broken.
"By the way, how about the person you said could help me? Could it be that Ben Shao still wants to follow Liu Bei's three visits to the thatched house, is he willing to go out of the mountain? ”
"How could it be, he has long heard of Chen Shao's name, and he has been looking forward to cooperating with you. Rest assured, the owner, soon, he will meet you. ”
A City Jail.
A prisoner in prison clothes is escorted out of his cell, and what awaits him is not the end of death, but the beginning of freedom and a new chapter of revenge......
