Chapter 132: The First Month of 2007 (Part I)
Chen Meng's place of residence is relatively far away, and it took three subway transfers to get to the place where Wang must be at the hotel. The two of them walked around the drum tower together, and it was still early, so they decided to find a small restaurant for breakfast. The winter morning was very cold, Chen Meng was wrapped in a red short down jacket, a velvet hat on her head, and a short skirt of woolen underneath.
"Be careful, if you get arthritis or something." Wang Yi put his arm around her shoulders and rubbed a little heat for her.
"There's no way around that." Chen Meng smiled, just like the first time he saw Wang Yi, showing eight teeth, like a child who didn't care about anything.
"In this case, I can only take care of you with one more heart." Wang Yi rubbed the tip of her nose helplessly, and the hot breath exhaled by Chen Meng sprayed on his face, soft and itchy in his heart. felt that Chen Meng was hateful, and made a gesture to take off her hat, "That's how it is, and it doesn't reassure me." Wang Yi was indignant.
The small alley is littered with bicycles, irregular telephone poles and visibly stained garbage bins. You can vaguely see the white smoke coming out of the alley when the buns have just been steamed, and when you get closer, it is a snack bar. The prices of wonton stew, steamed buns, soy milk, and fried dough sticks are written with red brushes on the dirty white signboards, and there are several tables outside the house, where two or three early risers sit outside to eat wontons, and there are people who get up early for a walk and come over to pack breakfast.
Chen Meng was clamoring to have breakfast, so the two of them sat in the house and ordered a bowl of wontons and xiaolongbao and the like, there were many types, and they were all on the small table when they came up.
"It's okay." Wang wiped a spoon clean and handed it to Chen Meng, "If you can't eat it, you can pack it and take it away." ”
Chen Meng's eyes became like a crescent moon, shining.
This is a long time ago, when Chen Meng first met Wang Yi, he was choked by Wang Yi and invited him to dinner. Chen Meng, who is still a student, of course, has no money to invite Wang Yi to eat in a high-end restaurant. She took Wang Yi to a cheap and affordable shop, ordered a lot of staple foods, which were actually cheap, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry about waste, I can take it away if I can't eat it." ”
Wang Yi, who was bent on slaughtering Chen Meng's meal, laughed helplessly and said, "Pack it and take it away, don't you go back and eat it yourself." It seems that I want to get back to my roots, so I have to eat until I can survive. ”
"It's okay." Wang Yi in front of her looked at Chen Meng gently, and helped her eat wontons, and she pulled the broken hair in front of her forehead behind her ears, "I'll eat with you." ”
After breakfast, Wang Yi and Chen Meng took the subway to visit most of Beijing. It happened to be a weekday, and people on the subway kept pouring in and out. Only Wang Yi and Chen Meng were aimless. When there are many people, hold the railing on the subway, and when there are few people, sit side by side. Wang Yi hadn't been so indulgent for a long time that he had to give himself a holiday. Leaving the house, leaving the Du family, no car, no house, and even luxury goods were frozen, except for two or three cards with smaller amounts, all bank card accounts were frozen. He held Chen Meng's hand and was reluctant to let go. When the subway is about to enter the next platform, there is a dark period. The glass door reflected the shadow of two people sitting side by side, Wang Yi squeezed Chen Meng's soft hand very quietly, and asked, "I've thought about it for a long time, with my current net worth, I really shouldn't come to you." ”
Chen Mengyan held his hand, and the car drove to a bright place, and the only few people got out of the car sporadically. In an instant, only Chen Meng and Wang Yi were left in the crowded carriage.
"No matter what happens, I'm happy if you can come to me."
When Du Yu sent a short message to Chen Meng, his hands were shaking. He didn't know if it was his mistake to involve Chen Meng in the first place. Maybe he just wants to compete with Wang Yi competitively, just like when he was a child, no matter what the game was, Du Yu would want to win. But this time, he couldn't win Wang Yi's sincerity. He didn't expect that Wang Yi, who was not stained by a leaf on the Fengyue Field, would also have a serious day. Just like the phone call his father made to him, the old man broke away from Du Yu, but he wanted to solve Chen Meng personally. Beijing's investment seems to be the last deal Wang Yi made for the Du family, but this is just a cover for the old man, how can it be so easy to get out of the Du family, which has a complicated relationship.
"See clearly, don't upset the old man, he hurts you in vain."
"Wang Yi can't understand it, can't you see it clearly? Getting out of the way is the best option. ”
His father's words had not yet dissipated in his ears, and Du Yu suddenly couldn't understand the world. The grandfather who held him since he was a child and taught him to taste all kinds of tea will also be a sinister and cunning, murderous demon without blinking. Perhaps the hands of wealth acumulators have never been so clean. Du Yu is just a spoiled child since he was a child, and he doesn't have the ability to accept those dark things, nor does he have the courage. He told his aunt to take care of the cats in Beijing, and before leaving, he thought that probably the worst outcome of this matter would be that Chen Meng would not be able to return to China in the short term. How bad can it be.
The phone vibrated a bit, revealing a new unread message.
Chen Meng was just about to take out his mobile phone, but Wang Yi held his hand: "With me, can you not care about other news?" ”
She kissed Wang Yi's forehead, and still took out her mobile phone: "What if it's a 100,000 urgent thing?" If you miss an important order, how can you make money to support you. ”
Wang smiled sweetly, he put his arms around Chen Meng's waist and lay on her shoulder to read the news together. It was sent by Du Yu, and the time display was a message from a minute ago. The content in it is a project of the company in the United States, which is a project that Lian Hongyu took over before and promised to teach Chen Meng by hand.
"Okay." Chen Meng looked very good when he smiled, like starlight, lighting up the dark night sky. She said, "Sister Lian Hongyu said that she wanted to hand over this project to me, but I didn't expect the president to really approve it." ”
"Even the red rain?" Wang Yi repeated the name, "Is it the woman next to Du Yu who is in charge of him like an old mother?" Chen Meng glanced at him and acquiesced.
"Under her, it's all right."
"Well, Sister Lian Hongyu is really good and has taught me a lot of things. If this project is next, it will really be of great benefit to my own career development in the future......" Chen Meng chattered a little excitedly, happily hugging Wang Yi, "In this way, one day I can raise you." ”
Wang Yi smiled and kissed her, with a hint of imperceptible worry.
Chen Meng said, "The best and somewhat sorry news is that I will go abroad tomorrow." ”
"In such a hurry?" Wang Yi frowned, feeling that something was wrong and didn't know where to start with this feeling.
"Well, this project was negotiated before, and this time the other party is willing to sign, so I have to fly over quickly." Chen Meng stuck out his tongue, "I'm so worried that the other party will regret it." ”
"But don't worry, go in a hurry and come back quickly. After signing this project, how about we settle the old score? Chen Meng was so happy that there was a smile in the corners of his eyes, as happy as a dizzy lark, eager to indulge in singing.
Wang Yi flipped through the calendar and weather forecast, "There is snow next week, no matter what, you can always come back by next weekend." He stared at Chen Meng's eyes word by word, "Let's go to see the snowy Forbidden City, okay?" At that time, I told you something very important and very important. ”
"Okay."
The annual celebration was a great success, and without the participation of the big boss Du Yu, the younger generation of senior executives were more open. Wang Yi, as an honorary investor of the company, took the stage to speak on behalf of Du Yu. Chen Meng was offstage, looking at the man in a suit and leather shoes, and in a trance, he felt a sense of complete merit. She said silently: "After so many years, Wang Yi, I am honored to finally be able to sit here and compete with you." ”
It's not the little girl who didn't have anything five years ago, but an adult woman with excellent ability, who can sit at the annual dinner with her own ability, and she is really happy.
Chen Meng was wearing a tight-fitting small cheongsam in the style of the Republic of China, and the heating in the house was turned on very high. Carved beams and paintings, light singing and dancing, suddenly there is a feeling of floating like a dream.
Wang Yi and Chen Meng danced the first dance of the audience, and the two of them were still intoxicated with the joy of reunion after a long absence.
Lian Hongyu was holding a glass of champagne, she looked at Chen Meng with complicated eyes, and then instructed her assistant to bring over the materials of the American investor this time.
She frowned, and a woman's intuition told her that things must not be as simple as Du Yu told her.
The dim light shone on Lian Hongyu's face, and at the moment when the dance music alternated, Wang Yi glanced at her. She smiled and raised her glass, the cunning woman like a cat again.
