"October 27, 2029."

In an elegantly coloured office with retro American décor throughout the house, vinyl records rotate slowly to play soft music, which makes people feel at ease, and the traffic is busy outside, but this room is very well soundproofed, and if you pay attention to it, you can even hear the rustle of the tip of the pen across the paper.

Yu Haoqiu put down the pen after writing the date on a document, and in the corner of the room, He Tianran was holding a glass of water, admiring a painting hanging in a conspicuous place in the room.

The girl walked lightly to stand side by side with the man behind her hands, and when she saw that his eyes were focused, she deliberately asked:

"Aunt Bai has a well-known reputation in the European art trading market, and Brother Natural must have been exposed to it since she was a child, not to mention that she is now a great director, so she should know the origin of this painting?"

The content of the painting is a fairy-like girl lying on her back in the clear water, the flowers on the shore are in full bloom, and the girl in the water is about to die.

He Tianran raised his hand and drank a sip of water, pointed to the painting, and said casually:

"Ophelia in the Water, now in the Tate Gallery in London, I used to go to England to find you Ai Qing Sister had the pleasure of witnessing once, she also likes this painting, by the way, do you know the story of the girl in this painting?"

The man took advantage of the situation, and the girl immediately shook her head and said with a smile:

"I heard it has something to do with Shakespeare? But I don't know the specifics, I'd like to hear about it. ”

"It's useless to look for Xue Yong in this matter."

"If that's the case...... Okay, I also happen to have something to tell you, and I may feel a little more at ease after signing this letter of knowledge. ”

The two were silent for a moment, and in the end, He Tianran sighed:

"If Zhang Zhifan relents in, his dirty material will not flow out, just take it as a lesson for him, after all, he is also a person who won the Chopin Piano Award, cutting off people's wealth is like killing his parents, and he has no hatred and no grudges to the point where he is ruined."

"It's just chatting. It's just that if you need psychological counseling, confide something, I can't not let you know, no matter how big or small we talk about, I will keep it absolutely confidential and help you, everyone has to sign when carrying out psychological work, this is the code of conduct and professional ethics of our industry. ”

Okay, well, in ancient times, there was "Chengmen Lixue", and now there is "natural knowledge", which is about to be passed on by my father as an allusion, right......

"All right! Brother Natural is really knowledgeable, and the background and story in the painting are at your fingertips, which is really difficult for you! I once heard Uncle He say that the reason why he agrees with you to change careers from finance to learn movies is because you guessed the allusion in the name of his sailing ship, when my dad heard this, he sighed again and again that he had also watched "The Old Man and the Sea", but he just didn't expect this!

Yu Haoqiu's family background is prominent, and his local prestige in Hong Kong City is not necessarily much worse than that of the He family, but Shanhai is an Internet industry, and its products are radiating all over the country.

Yu Chaoqiu originally had overlapping legs, and he exchanged left and right once.

"Brother Nature, you say, I'm listening."

Being praised like this, there was a pause in the smile on He Tianran's face, and he waved his hand, a rare little ...... Tangled.

"I know, that night, Zhang Zhifan called me, and he wanted me to ...... was able to come forward to help him settle the classmate named Xue Yong, but ......"

Due to the close proximity between the two, He Tianran could smell a faint scent of flowers, which was the same as what he smelled in the car last time.

When you think about it, this painting in your psychiatrist's office really complements each other. ”

"Brother Nature, do you know that one named Xue Yong?"

He Tianran was anti-guest again, and easily resolved all the rhetorical questions that could have prevented him from coming off the stage, and even gave the other party enough between his words, the kind of calm change and confident humor revealed between his demeanor made the meaning in Yu Haoqiu's eyes clearer......

The man's eyes rolled a few times, and he said as he recalled:

"I did have some pressure a while ago, it is estimated that there is too much pressure on work, I have not been released mentally, I am a little drowsy, and I am disgusted by your sister Ai Qing, but now it is much better."

"He even told Uncle Yu about this?"

"Brother Nature, what are you going to tell me?"

She took the initiative to say:

"I think we can change the subject."

He Tianran felt comfortable in his heart, twisted his neck, and looked at his expression, he was indeed relaxed.

Yu Haoqiu walked over and put away the documents, and pointed to a wooden bench in the back room for lying and sitting, the padding on the chair should be resin cotton, the texture is hard to sit on, but the resilience is very good, it is very suitable for sitting and sleeping for a long time, He Tianran wanted to lie down, but it was not very elegant to lie down after thinking about it, so he gave up for the time being.

"Because the guilt of you is my own guilt, this feeling I can't get my inner peace by blaming others, if everything doesn't end with me, then this matter will always be in my heart, I won't feel good."

He Tianran interrupted Yu Haoqiu's request, and the girl's head kept hanging down, and she couldn't see her expression clearly.

"You ......"

He Tianran pondered the vocabulary, he didn't know very well how important Zhang Zhifan was to Yu Haoqiu, so whether the content was expressed in a regretful tone or gloating, he could only observe the other party's reaction.

He Tianran shrugged helplessly, this is what he wanted to say to Yu Naoqiu when he came over this time, as for the reason, he said:

"This is ......"

The man squinted, feigned deep thought, dragged a thinking nasal voice in his nose, and after a few seconds of pause, he smiled:

"It's not always going to be honest, but this kind of ...... Anyway, in this kind of situation where you have signed a non-disclosure agreement or a letter of knowing, I don't think it's really necessary to lie to you. ”

Okay, it's over.

"What if...... I don't forgive you? ”

He Tianran really didn't think about doing any psychological counseling when he came, he just came to see Yu Haoqiu and hang out, but when he thought that the company was fine today, and he did have one thing in his heart, maybe he could ask the girl to help......

He Tianran laughed at this:

"I have always thought that the means are the means, the result is the result, good and bad, everyone knows it, not to mention that I haven't apologized to you, why do I want you to forgive?"

“…… You know? ”

The two looked at each other again, He Tianran replied very clearly, and Yu Naoqiu's eyes also changed from the initial incredulity to a rather subtle thing......

Yu Laoqiu was inexplicably stuffed with a mouthful of dog food, and he still had a smile on his face, and he had to respond to it:

"I can really see that Brother Natural you and Sister Ai Qing have a very strong relationship, and they have been emotionally close to each other for many years, which makes people really envious, so I just asked you if you have any troubles at work, because in my opinion, Brother Natural should be in terms of feelings...... Or in other words, between the sexes, a very complete person. ”

To be precise, Ophelia's image is born from a character in Shakespeare's Hamlet, in which she goes insane because of the double blow of being rejected by Hamlet and her father Polonius being stabbed to death, and she spends her days in madness, scattering flowers around, singing strange songs, and finally she climbs the hollow trunk of a tree, breaks the branch, falls into the water and dies.

The girl prepared for a while, she first put away the papers, took out a pair of rimless glasses from the cabinet and put them on, and then picked up the IPad and stylus on the table that were originally used as clocks, she walked up to He Tianran, pulled another chair and sat down, overlapping the two slender legs together, not to mention, although she was not wearing a white coat, this posture really had the feeling of a doctor's consultation.

"Okay, silly girl, you know the ins and outs, and what you say in front of me is not forgiving, it's just trying to shame me and see how I react, right?

Told about this secret between father and son, He Tianran touched his nose and smiled helplessly:

He Tianran's face obviously became restrained, his eyes involuntarily began to wander, his hands couldn't help but raise to his chest, and he gestured slightly, as if to embody his complex inner fluctuations and struggles, he didn't speak, and Yu Chaoqiu didn't urge, until half a minute later, the man sounded a deep voice-

"Acquaintance."

"Then can you please help me contact him, just say ......"

"Or because of your Sister Ai Qing, although she doesn't do my job, and it's not comparable to your profession, but she is really good at comforting people, and there are some common topics outside of our majors, sometimes I stay with her, don't do anything, don't say anything, I feel very relaxed, I think if one day I don't have her by my side, my world will definitely collapse."

As she spoke, she shook her head and continued to look down to write something.

A woman's appreciation for a man.

"It's so formal, I thought I was just talking to you."

Thinking of this, He Tianran simply walked to Yu Naoqiu's desk, picked up the pen, and signed his name on the information form, and said in his mouth:

You can help Zhang Zhifan intercede is already benevolent and righteous, although I said that you are a stupid girl, but I have never felt that you are stupid, after all, I can know the news from more than half a month ago, and then on the day of the class reunion, Miss Qianjin, you are the only one I have ever seen, I don't believe that this is the case, you still have to continue to be mired in the quagmire of the 'piano prince', and I don't believe that you have not made a corresponding plan for such a result from beginning to end. ”

Taking a step back, Zhang Zhifan would not have come to this point if he had attended the class reunion in peace, so when you said that he was your boyfriend on the golf course that day, I sighed that this world is so small; the second is to doubt yourself for doing too much; Third...... It's now that I regret the decision to invite you in the first place, because I let you encounter such an embarrassing thing, and because I want to protect my own artist, I inadvertently hurt a friend, which really makes me feel sorry, so I want to come and see you. ”

Yu Chaoqiu chatted casually: "Brother Nature, don't you usually encounter any troubles?" Like what...... At work. ”

Yu Naoqiu lowered his head and opened the manuscript tool of the iPad, and asked:

He Tianran smiled, with a happy face:

"Natural Brother ......"

"There is no doubt that I love Ai Qing very much, and I love her very much...... But...... During this time, I also had a crush on another woman, and I was very ...... about it Very painful ......"

"Of course, when I talk about it, I feel better......"

Yu Haoqiu smiled, and praised He Tianran even more.

This kind of thing, see through it or not, He Tianran smiled slightly, and said slowly with frankness:

Unexpectedly, I actually experienced it today, and this feeling is really gratifying! ”

"Don't worry, you go over there and sit down first."

"All this...... Did you do it? When Zhang Zhifan called me to tell me, I suspected that since the classmate named Xue Yong had nothing to do with him, he would not be so disciplined. ”

"What do you think?"

Although He Tianran doesn't know much psychology, as a man, it is estimated that no one can refuse an opportunity to talk eloquently in front of the opposite sex and show his knowledge and insight, especially in front of a beautiful woman who deliberately gives you a chance to behave.

"Stop flattering, the more you say that, the more ashamed I feel...... In fact, Ai Qing and I really have something in our relationship...... It's always been a little hard for me to speak. ”

It's a ......

Just when He Tianran had some bad comments on He Panshan's show-off behavior, Yu Haoqiu handed over a document.

"Huh?"

Someone next to him explained that He Tianran didn't look at the words on the paper, he closed the document and said:

"Are you so honest with everyone?"

"But you could have left me alone...... Or, blame all the pretenses on the classmate named Xue Yong. ”

However, this kind of appreciation, there is a high probability that it will not be lip and tooth, and Yu Chaoqiu is even more so, she is noncommittal to He Tianran's words, but the corners of her mouth unconsciously appear in an arc, expressing her attitude.

"Originally, I didn't have this plan, but he was inquiring about Wen Liang's recent situation because he heard the news of the class reunion, since I was classmates with them, I naturally knew what the situation was when the two of them were in high school, if so, it would be fine, but Wen Liang is now my artist, and anything that damages her reputation is harming the interests of my company, so I can't let it go, and Zhang Zhifan ...... He is obviously not a character who can make people rekindle their old feelings with him.

He Tianran never expected that Yu Naoqiu would neither be angry nor complain, but suddenly ask.

"There is no audio or video recording equipment in this room, and there will be no third person to know the content of our chat next, and any of your privacy will not be leaked out of me, and you will agree that in the next few processes, I will use methods including but not limited to verbal induction, hypnosis, slight physical contact, equipment assistance, etc., to relieve and answer your psychological needs and pressures, of course, if I really need to do this, I will also ask for your consent verbally again."

"What's more, in their circle, many uncles know about this, and it can be seen that Uncle He is very proud of the decision he promised you and the achievements you have made now!"

He Tianran opened the document, and listened to Yu Naoqiu continue to add:

"That's it...... About Zhang Zhifan, after you left, something else happened. ”

"Is it because he has illegitimate children overseas?"

The female figure of Ophelia has attracted the attention of countless Western painters in history, how crazy Ophelia is alive on the shore of the lake, how pure the beauty of Ophelia drowning in the water, such a strong contrast extends to many human discussions and philosophical speculations, this scene is known as 'the most poetic death', and the most famous of them is your classic painting painted by Millais.

Heh, this grandson still has a face?

He Tianran sneered in his heart and asked:

A ray of incredulity flashed in Yu Chaoqiu's eyes, she slowly raised her head, looked at the sky, and took a deep breath, as if she was soothing her emotions.

In his eyes, Yu Naoqiu's movements in his hands were obvious, and then he helped him solve his concerns.

Yu Haoqiu finally raised his head, the two glanced at each other, He Tianran raised his eyebrows, in such a straightforward gaze, the girl understood everything in an instant, she was shocked:

Listening to Yu Naoqiu's inquiry, He Tianran was about to speak but suddenly stopped, because he instantly understood that this girl was giving herself the opportunity to play, since she could hang the painting in a conspicuous place in the office, and took the initiative to talk about the origin of the painting and Shakespeare, how could she not know the meaning of the painting?

But even so, if the daughter of the Yu family wants to help her boyfriend solve a troublesome matter, it can be described as easy.

That's an appreciation, an appreciation that finds the same kind.

Yu Haoqiu recorded and asked:

"In what way do you get soothing?"

"This is the customer's letter of knowledge, Brother Nature, please sign it here."

“…… Brother Nature, why are you so sure? ”

At the moment when He Tianran expressed his heart, the expression on Yu Chaoqiu's face became ......

It's wonderful.

Like a hungry spider, its eight eyes are all focused on a prey that is about to be caught. (End of chapter)
