Chapter 238: The Mysterious Woman in the Chain

,!

The golf international tournament cooperation project that I spent a lot of effort to get my hands on was suppressed by the group, and it was rejected on the grounds that the operation content of the project itself did not match the development of the group, which was completely untenable and absurd.

The news quickly spread to Jiang Shen, he called me to confirm the situation, I can't describe the feeling when I received Jiang Shen's call!

At the beginning, I was so confident to participate in the bidding, encountered vicious competition, crossed many obstacles to win the project, and swore to ensure the ability of the project to be undertaken by the tenderer, and finally was suppressed by the group, which made me angry!

In a fit of rage, I promised Jiang Shen: "No, the project is progressing smoothly." ”

Jiang Shen asked me to contact him in time if there is any change!

After hanging up the phone, I took the materials and ran to the group in person, and after a day, I didn't eat, and finally rushed into Li Ziluo's office with red eyes, and sat on the sofa in his office and cried as soon as I entered. ”

I cried and scolded, "What a! What does it matter to them about the project that we M Hotel cooperates with, why do they say they won't give it if they don't give it, are they police or city management! ”

Li Ziluo took out a few tissues from the side and threw them to me and said with a smile: "What a person, when you encounter something, you still cry your nose." ”

I took the tissue and said unconvinced, "Why do you say?" Why? Isn't this unreasonable? How can you still laugh? ”

Li Ziluo sat down beside me: "A lot of times it comes out of the top. Taiwan's things will not care if you are unfair or not, nor will they consider interests, but only interests. ”

I wiped my tears and heard him say, "The step they took today is also a warning to us. ”

I looked up at Li Ziluo, and he explained it to me.

In layman's terms, Weiss is Lao Tzu, M Hotel is the son, the son is in full swing, and Lao Tzu can't sit still.

Originally, Weiss's main brands were mainly chain express hotels, and carried out disorderly diversified development, including investment in real estate, tourism industry development and some other subsidiaries.

However, the brand of M Hotel has gradually grown, and now it can be on an equal footing with the group in terms of popularity and value, and there is a certain competitive relationship.

Now the situation is that his son has made a lot of money in trading, fame and fortune, Lao Tzu wants to swallow his son, but he can't swallow it, so he shows his identity to restrain his son, and let his son take the initiative to submit to Lao Tzu!

I was so angry after tossing for a day, I said to Li Ziluo: "Why do we want to cling to Weiss, can't we withdraw from the M Hotel?" ”

Li Ziluo frowned and said, "Weiss has the country laid down by your father, do you want to give it to others like this?" ”

I stopped talking.

He touched my head: "Don't think about it today, you get off work early and go back to rest, I still have something to do, go back later." ”

I really didn't have the heart to go to work, and after arguing with the people in the group for a day, I was very tired and had a headache.

I nodded, got up, went straight down to the garage and drove home.

When I got home, I ate a bowl of noodles, climbed into bed, and even dreamed of arguing with people, obviously feeling that I was all reasonable, but the other party just didn't bird me, and woke me up alive.

After sitting up, the room was pitch black, I don't know when it was dark outside, I looked at the time, it was past nine o'clock, and Li Ziluo had not come back.

Suddenly feeling stuffy and panicked, I got up and walked to the study opposite to find a book to pass the time and wait for him to come back.

I remember when I was about a teenager, there was a time when I liked to run to Li Ziluo's study, his study was very large, and there were many strange books in it, and I liked to go into his study to find books to read when I was on vacation.

When he was a little older, I rarely came in, and he didn't like to be disturbed when he was busy.

I turned on the light in the study, and the room suddenly lit up, and I looked up for a long time, but I didn't find any books to my liking.

His bookcase was three sides in total, half a circle around the room, all the way to the roof, so it was so high that the books on it could not be seen at all.

I moved a chair, padd my feet and looked up at the title of a book, dazzled, looking for a long time suddenly saw the last time Li Ziluo and I played Go The book was called "Ulysses", very familiar, because I was curious, so I raised my hand to reach, and finally touched the book and pulled it back, and suddenly something fell from the book to the ground, making a crisp sound of "poof".

I looked down, my heart staggered, it was the retro chain like a pocket watch, it wasn't the first time I saw this thing, but I never had a chance to open it, I still remember that I happened to see this chain in the study a few years ago, when Li Ziluo quickly took it away, and didn't seem to want to show it to me!

And now, this thing suddenly appeared in front of my eyes again, everything was as if it had been arranged in the dark, my heart began to beat violently, and a voice kept ringing in my ears, telling me to open it, open it!

I didn't know why I was so nervous all of a sudden, as if I was about to discover some great secret, I jumped out of the chair to meet the light overhead, squatted down to pick it up, and my fingers slowly touched the ancient flower case on the cover, which was worn out of the traces of time, glowing with a strange and mysterious bronz, and a cold touch hit the bottom of my heart, which actually made my body tremble slightly.

With a nervous mood, I couldn't wait for a second, my thumbs flipped up slightly, and with the crisp "ding" sound in the quiet room, there seemed to be an echo, and then the lid was opened by me!

Suddenly, a black and white photo appeared in front of my eyes, and when I saw the face in the photo, the blood all over my body instantly flowed backwards, and a cold, even terrifying feeling spread from the soles of my feet to my whole body!

I just stood there staring at the picture in a daze, my mind going blank! There was a "buzzing" sound in my ears.

Because the person in the photo is me!

Whether it's those twinkling eyes, or a small nose, or a slightly raised lip corner, every facial feature is carved out of the same mold as me!

But to my horror, it wasn't me.

I haven't worn that cheongsam, I haven't had that bun, I haven't seen the carved wooden chair where the woman is sitting in the photo, everything... It's so weird!

I carefully looked down at the expression of the woman in the photo, her quiet but smart eyes seemed to be firmly watching me through the photo, and her smile became mysterious in my eyes!

At that moment, the hairs all over my body exploded, and I suddenly threw the chain away, as if some invisible force was chasing me, and I was so frightened that I ran out of the door and downstairs.

I stumbled down the stairs and almost broke my foot, and suddenly fell into an embrace, Li Ziluo circled me to my chest to stabilize my body and reproached: "What are you running? ”

I looked up at him in horror, and when he saw my expression, he frowned and asked me, "What's wrong?" ”

I didn't know how to express my fear and horror right now, so I turned back and pointed to my study and said intermittently, "I saw me, no, how could my picture be in the chain?" ”

Li Ziluo paused for two seconds, his pupils contracted suddenly, his eyes were dark and scary, and he asked me in a deep voice, "You went to my study?" ”

I was too scared to nod my head, biting my lip tightly, his eyes flashed like an abyss, and he frowned and stared at me for a long time, his voice was gloomy: "That person is not you." ”

I dragged him in horror: "Who is that?" Why do you look the same as me? ”

His eyes gradually retracted, as if he was thinking about something far away, and instead of answering my question, he asked me, "What about things?" ”

I didn't speak, I frowned and looked at him, and he asked again eagerly, his voice was full of oppression, which made me tremble: "What am I asking you about?" ”

I pointed in the direction of the study, and he threw me down and strode upstairs.

I stood in place for a long time to slow down before my mood stabilized slightly, I turned around and walked back to the door of his study step by step, the door was open, I pushed open the door and saw Li Ziluo sitting in front of the desk, the chain I threw on the ground He had picked it up again and held it in the palm of his hand, I had never seen Li Ziluo so trance-like.

He heard my movement, suddenly closed the lid, then put the chain back in the drawer, stood up and walked to me, his calm eyes slowly fell to me, still with a cold expression, pulled me out of the study, and closed the door.

That whole night, Li Ziluo suddenly became difficult to approach, without saying a word, and what was hidden between his eyebrows seemed to be a secret that I couldn't peep into.

I'm tempted to ask who the woman in his photo is? Why did he care so much about that chain? But several times when the words came to his lips, looking at his rejecting expression, he didn't dare to ask again.

I seemed to feel that he got up and went to the balcony to smoke in the middle of the night, and did not come back for a long time.

In a trance, in the morning, he was no longer at home.

I drove to the company alone, but I happened to see Li Ziluo's car in the parking lot, I was just about to walk towards him, but his car had already started, I chased two steps and the car happened to drive away from not far away, the co-pilot's window fell halfway, and there was actually a woman sitting on it, Du Ying!

I immediately took out my mobile phone and called Li Ziluo, the call was quickly connected, and I asked him, "Where are you?" ”

He told me, "It's only been a few days since I left the company. ”

"With whom?"

He seemed to pause and said, "A customer." ”

I held my phone and kept the chair, and was about to ask him which customer he was, but he said, "I'm driving, hang up first." ”

I walked back to the office with heavy steps, and the director of operations came to my office early in the morning and asked me what to do about the project. Do you want to draw up a connotation to the project party?

I thought for a few seconds with my head down, then looked up and said to the Director of Operations, "It's business as usual!" ”

"But on the group's side, it's not easy to deal with."

I took a deep breath and leaned back in my chair and looked at him fixedly: "Is there anyone who is stopping him from coming to me directly!" ”
