Chen Xi came with discipline, and Fei Yifan especially doesn't like to attend this kind of occasion, so whenever he encounters such a banquet, he will ask discipline to attend on his behalf. And the work of the disciplined female companion naturally fell on Chen Xi's head, and there are not many female employees in Extraordinary itself, and she is the only one who can attend. So they have become a regular pair and cooperate tacitly.

She accompanied Discipline in the banquet hall with friends in the business world, extraordinary to develop in the business world to open up relationships, accumulate contacts, this is also the main purpose of discipline, and she is mainly to cooperate with him.

And these fell into Li Ming's eyes and completely became tasteful, looking at Chen Xi and Discipline standing side by side in the crowd of clothes and sideburns talking and laughing with people, the two of them met from time to time and smiled, extremely dazzling.

With a "snap", the red wine glass in Li Ming's hand was crushed by him, and blood and red wine flowed down his fingers.

"Ah~" His actions frightened a lady next to him to exclaim, and the people nearby followed the sound to him.

"It's okay, it's okay, the quality of the wine glass is not up to par." Ah Wei looked sloppy, took out the pocket towel on his chest, and helped him temporarily bandage his hand first, "Why are you so careless." ”

When Chen Xi heard the commotion, she tilted her head to look over, her eyes passed through the crowd, and collided with Li Mingyin's gaze, she shivered, and her heart beat faster.

Discipline noticed something strange about her, "What's wrong?" Uncomfortable? You have a very bad face. Naturally, he reached for her forehead, trying to check her temperature.

Chen Xi tilted his head and dodged away, "I'm fine." I have something to do first. ”

"Wait a little longer, the auction is over, and I'll send you back." When he came, Fei Yifan explained that if the auction could be supported, he would support it, and it would be regarded as giving Xu Zhiheng a face.

"No, it's urgent, I have to leave immediately." Without waiting for discipline to answer, Chen Xi turned around in a panic and walked out quickly.

Discipline was stunned for a moment, then turned around and chased after him.

Li Ming's eyes stared at these two people, exuding a violent cold air on his body, Ah Wei felt the atmosphere on his body change suddenly, and looked at him along his line of sight, but he didn't know the point.

"What are you looking at? I said you'd better find a place to deal with that hand! ”

Li Ming lowered his eyes and looked at the injured hand he was putting on the table, because he was clenched too tightly with excitement, blood seeped out through the white scarf, and it was so red that it was shockingly red.

Raising his eyes to look at Chen Xi's back, Li Ming stepped away.

"Alas, alas! How can this man just leave, and no one will offend him. Ah Wei touched his chin, thought about what had just happened, gossiped in his heart, and quietly followed.

Outside the hotel, Discipline grabbed Chen Xi, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Chen Xi looked at the door of the hotel uneasily, "It's okay, I just want to go back, I don't worry about the child being at home." ”

"Didn't you ask your neighbors to watch it for you?" Discipline looked at her suspiciously, he always felt that she was hiding something from him.

"That can't always bother people, it's so late, I really have to go." Chen Xila held the hand of his arm.

"There must be something, Chen Xi, what's wrong with you and me?" Discipline re-grabbed her.

Chen Xi glanced at the door of the hotel in a panic, and through the floor-to-ceiling glass of the hotel, Li Ming's figure appeared in the hotel lobby, "I really have to go, please let me go!" ”

Discipline looked at her panicked eyes, and looked back at Chen Xi's line of sight, "What are you afraid of?" Have you met someone you don't want to meet? ”

"Please, don't ask, I really have to go." Chen Xi broke free of discipline and ran to the road while raising his hand to stop the car.

Discipline glanced back at the door of the hotel, and reached out to grab Chen Xi, "Follow me." ”

He held her in his arms and shielded her with his body behind the green landscape of the shrubs used for the hotel's decoration.

He pulled her and leaned over, "Don't worry, it's not easy to hail a taxi here, I'll send you back in a while." ”

"Thank you."

Discipline quietly poked his head out and observed the movement at the entrance of the hotel.

Li Ming hurriedly walked out of the hotel, he looked around and didn't see Chen Xi and Discipline, and secretly cursed in his heart, "Damn!" ”

With a long sigh of relief, he looked up at the night sky, where the bright moon hung in the dark sky, and the moonlight poured down like water.

"In the future, wherever you go, as long as you raise your head and see the moon in the sky, and think that we are under the same moonlight, you will feel that I am actually by your side." She once said this to him with the childishness of a girl, but she was the one who left first in the end.

It's been six years, and it's been six years since she left J City, at first he was crazy looking for her, and then after a long time, he was also tired and tired, and gradually gave up. A person like him should have been ruthless, loveless, carefree, gone or gone, that's what he told himself all these years.

But just when he thought he had almost forgotten that she existed, she just appeared. Dressed in beautiful dresses, standing next to other men, smiling like flowers, as if nothing had happened. What a mockery!

And what's even more ironic is that the man is still disciplined!

Li Ming lit a cigarette irritably, the curling smoke lingering between his fingers, and he wondered what her identity was here, and what was her relationship with discipline.

"Hey, you're here! Let's go back! The auction is about to start, and Mr. Situ is looking for you! Ah Wei stood a step away from him, looking at him without any scheming.

Li Ming dropped the cigarette butt and put it out with his foot, "Let's go!" ”

Behind the bushes, discipline takes it all in.

He looked back at Chen Xi.

"Can you not ask anything?" Chen Xi stopped him before he could speak.

He stared at her for a long time, and nodded slightly, "Let's go, send you back." ”

in the banquet hall.

Zhang Man and Han Yu, as the hosts, announced the official start of the charity auction.

Most of the lots are artworks from Southeast Asia, which have risen to prominence in recent years as the new darlings of the art investment community, and the selection of these as lots in this auction can be said to be both sincere and tasteful.

Many people are also willing to take one or two such works of art back from the perspective of collecting, which not only does good deeds, but also has investment value, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

In addition to these lots provided by Hengsheng, there are also lots donated by chambers of commerce or individuals for this charity auction.

For example, Shen Shen specially donated a set of antique porcelain from the British Royal Dalton in order to thank Xu Zhiheng, Situ Teng brought a landscape painting of Zhang Daqian, and Lin Xi actually donated an antique ring on behalf of Lin Xiaotian.

When handing over the ring to Xu Zhiheng, Lin Xi whispered to him: "The old man means that he wants you to cast it, to be honest, this ring is an heirloom of the Lin family, and I don't know what the old man thinks, so he suddenly decided to take it out for auction, and you can auction it as he likes." ”

Xu Zhiheng took the ring box and nodded without looking at it, although he couldn't guess Lin Xiaotian's intentions, but thinking about his current physical condition, there was no reason to refuse.

The auction went quite smoothly, and everyone was enthusiastic about the Southeast Asian artworks, until Zhang Man announced that the next auction item was donated by Situ Teng, and the venue suddenly became silent.

Situ Teng hooked his lips, and stood in the middle of the venue with a cold smile on his face. Such a reaction has long been expected by him, and he has long been accustomed to the attitude of others who are disgusted and afraid of him and have to respect him for three points.

This is a picture of Zhang Daqian's green pine, before Zhang Daqian's Huangshan Qisong Tongjing long scroll was auctioned in Hong Kong at a price of 40 million, although this one is only a small volume, the conservative estimate is also worth more than 5 million, but when Han Yu announced that the starting price of this painting was 3 million, it was still unpopular.

"10 million." Xu Zhiheng directly called a price that was difficult to resist.

"Mr. Xu is really unwilling to be a descendant for goodness! Such a price makes us sigh with admiration! "The president of the Chamber of Commerce in J City is an old slippery head, and he is best at seeing the wind and steering the way.

As soon as he said this, several veteran business celebrities immediately echoed, "Yes, yes, Mr. Xu is young and promising, and he pays so much attention to charity, which is really beyond our reach." ”

So an embarrassment was dissolved.

The next auction is the set of antique porcelain donated by Shen Shen, the British Royal Dalton, praised by Queen Victoria as "the world's most beautiful porcelain maker", is a world-famous bone china master. This set of antique porcelain is made of delicate materials, and the plain white body is accompanied by 22K gold-plated hand-painted strokes, which is elegant and generous.

Originally, Xu Zhiheng intended to take a picture and give it to Ms. Cao, but he just took a picture of Zhang Daqian's painting, and if he immediately bid for this set of ancient porcelain, it would inevitably be too high-profile, so he had to do it. After several bids, it was finally won by Lin Xiaotian at a price of 1.2 million.

This was followed by a few paintings by modern Indonesian painters, which quickly fetched good prices for their vivid colors and bold brushstrokes, which had a high reputation among art investors.

The last auction is the antique ring donated by Lin Xiaotian, a handmade gold ring with a black enamel ring with mottled time marks, both in shape and workmanship, full of personality and unique. As the finale, the lot caused quite a stir as soon as it was brought on stage.

"Do you like it?" Xu Zhiheng asked Milo beside him in a low voice.

There is no woman who doesn't like jewelry, especially the heavy sense of age and unique style of this ring, which has deeply attracted Milo's attention.

Before Xu Zhiheng saw this ring, he thought about taking it as Lin Xiaotian asked before giving it back to him, but when he saw it, a new idea came out of his mind.

With a starting price of 5 million, the ring is the most expensive lot in the market, and even so, it still attracts many bidders.

But when the price was called 12 million, suddenly Lin Xiaotian raised his hand and called out a high price of 15 million, and the business people present were stunned, did Lin Xiaotian want to take back what belonged to the Lin family? If that's the case, no one really wants to go against the Lin family, and suddenly there was a second cold scene tonight at the venue.

"20 million." Xu Zhiheng said in an authentic voice.

Everyone secretly sweated for his boldness, but thinking about it, it was not once or twice that he challenged Lin Xiaotian, and it is understandable that this person is famous for being bold and reckless anyway.

Thinking like this, everyone was waiting for Lin Xiaotian's reaction, but they didn't expect that until Han Yu sang the bid for the third time, Lin Xiaotian was not bidding. In the end, Han Yu announced that the ring was won by Xu Zhiheng for 20 million.

When everyone was amazed by Lin Xiaotian's attitude, Xu Zhiheng had already jumped onto the stage, reached out to take the ring, walked all the way to Milo's side under the gaze of everyone, knelt down on one knee, and held the ring with both hands, "Luo Luo, marry me." ”

The banquet hall suddenly boiled, and the shouts of "marry him, marry him" and applause resounded throughout the hall.

"Lolo, I know that I haven't prepared well enough, and the scene is not romantic enough, but I promise that every day from now on will let you spend your time romantically with my careful preparation. Marry me. ”

Milo held his mouth with both hands, looking at Xu Zhiheng in disbelief, she didn't expect him to propose to her so suddenly, since they lived together, the life of the two was stable, she once thought that they had passed the period of love, and the urge to marry became weaker and weaker with cohabitation. Of course, she believed that they would get married in the end, and after Xu Zhiheng completed the task, she went to get the certificate plainly.

Now under the witness of so many people, it was already a surprise to her, and she stretched out her slender jade hand to Xu Zhiheng.

In a burst of cheers, Xu Zhiheng didn't know where to find a bouquet of roses, ran over and handed it to Xu Zhiheng, now the blessings, rings, and flowers are all there, and everything is very complete.

Lin Xiaotian wiped the moist corners of his eyes, bent his lips slightly, and said to Lin Xi beside him: "Let's go!" ”

The next day, there were many reports about this banquet, it can be said that there are many levels and multiple perspectives, there are too many angles and events that can be reported, and the press in J City is rarely blooming, and the title and focus of each report are different.

"You're red now." Ah Wei sat in Xu Zhiheng's office and joked about him.

Xu Zhiheng glanced at him and said, "Are you too idle again?" Too much nonsense. ”

Ah Wei touched his nose and muttered in a low voice: "Who is idle, don't you see that people have been busy?" ”

Xu Zhiheng turned his head sideways to look at his computer screen, "What are you looking at?" ”

"Surveillance footage from the banquet hall last night."

"And say that you are not idle?" Xu Zhiheng glared at him, paused and said, "That's just right, just cut out the clip of my marriage proposal for me." ”

"No, boss, I'm really busy." Strange argued.

"That's useless."

"No, Boss, not really." Ah Wei paused the video footage and turned the screen to Xu Zhiheng, "Look here." ”

Pressing the play button again, he pointed to Li Ming on the screen, "Did you look at his expression and notice the change?" It's instantly cold. And angry, unwilling, and finally crushed the wine glass. I went home last night and tried it and it really took a lot of strength to do it. ”

Xu Zhiheng was also attracted by his words, staring at the picture and saying, "What did he see?" ”

"yes, that's what I was weird about, I followed his line of sight, but I didn't find anything special. Later, I asked the hotel for the night's surveillance, and I compared the surveillance footage from several angles, and finally I found this. ”

As he spoke, he operated the computer keyboard and called up another section of surveillance, which was a relatively distant position, and the figure was not very large, but he could basically see the panoramic view of the banquet hall. He froze the picture, took out a pen and pointed it to the other end of the banquet hall along Li Ming's line of sight.

"See, that's how he looks, and there's only this person right in front of him." Monster said as he zoomed in on the man's image.

Xu Zhiheng frowned slightly, pointed to the picture and said, "The person next to her is disciplined?" I remembered that she was Milo's colleague and was in the same department as Discipline, and I heard Milo mention that her name was Chen Xi, and she was a single mother. ”

After saying the words "single mother", the two exchanged glances, and then Ah Wei closed the computer, stood up and said, "I'll check it out right away." ”

……

Extraordinary electromechanical, design department II.

Chen Xi stood in front of the disciplined desk and handed him a white envelope with both hands.

Discipline hesitantly took the envelope, looked at Chen Xi, reached out to open the envelope, took out the neatly folded A4 paper inside, and unfolded it.

His face changed slightly, his eyebrows furrowed, he put down the page, and said to Wen Hao in the same office: "Xiaowen, you go to the workshop, follow up the production progress over there, and solve any problems on the spot." ”

Wen Hao looked up from his design drawings in a daze, and said straightforwardly: "I'll go over after I finish drawing this picture." ”

"Go now!" The voice of discipline unconsciously raised a few degrees.

Wen Hao was stunned for a moment, discipline is the kind of leader who never gets angry, even if you do something wrong, he may hurt you, but he will definitely not yell at you.

"Oh." He touched his head, what happened today.

Watching Wen Hao leave, Discipline locked the door of the office, pulled down the blackout curtain, blocked the damn glass window on the door, turned around with his hands on his chest, and stared at Chen Xi, "Say, what's going on?" ”

"It's nothing, I just don't want to do it. I want to change the environment. ”

"Suddenly want to change the environment overnight? Chen Xi, don't insult my IQ. ”

Chen Xi hung his head, bit his lower lip, and made up his mind: "It's not all of a sudden, I've been thinking about it for a long time, the low salary here and the distance from home are not suitable for me at all." I wanted to leave for a long time, but I never said it. ”

Discipline sneered, "Chen Xi, I'm not blind, I see how much you like this place and how much you cherish this job." For so long, I hope you will tell me openly and unfairly, and I will definitely try my best to help you. ”

"Then you can help me sign this resignation report."

"No way. I won't agree, don't want to leave here without my consent. ”

Chen Xi's temper also came up, she raised her head and looked directly at the discipline and said, "Then what if I fail to pass this 360 assessment?" Will the company fire me immediately? I don't need your consent to leave. ”

Discipline narrowed, "What the hell do you want to do?" Why do you have to go? Is there anything you have to do that you can't solve? ”

"I've just made it clear that you don't believe it."

Discipline grabbed her arm and looked down at her, "Chen Xi, do you take me for a fool?" Just such a bad reason, how do you make me believe? Say, why do you have to go? Say! ”

Chen Xi pursed his lips stubbornly, "I have just said, there is nothing to add, whether you believe it or not, anyway, I will hand in the resignation report, at most I will make up one month's salary of the company, and I can leave immediately." ”

"I said, I don't agree, do you hear it, I don't agree." The discipline was already a little out of control, and his hand was tightly pinching Chen Xi's arm and shaking her back and forth.

"Let it go! You've hurt me! ”

"Do you still know the pain? I thought you weren't conscious? For so long, just go. Have you considered other people's feelings? Have you considered me? As soon as this sentence came out, Discipline himself was stunned.

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, hooked his lips and smiled lightly: "I believe that you will definitely find a more satisfactory assistant than me, the development prospects of Extraordinary is just right, and there will be many people who are willing to come to work." You don't have to worry. ”

She left the relationship so far away, and let the discipline hold it in her heart, and it was uncomfortable to not go up or down.

He froze his mind, squinted, and stared at Chen Xi with burning eyes: "You are telling me the truth, is it because of Li Ming?" ”

Hearing Li Ming's name, Chen Xi's body stiffened unconsciously and shook his head, "No, don't guess." ”

Now that the words have been asked, Discipline no longer intends to let her escape like this, "What is the relationship between you and Li Ming?" Why are you avoiding him? ”

"That's enough, don't ask, okay? I don't want to say, I don't want to say anything. Anyway, I'm going to resign. If you don't approve it, I'll go directly to Mr. Fei. ”

"Chen Xi, am I so untrustworthy? You say it, say it, I'll help you, believe me? Well? ”

"Believe you? Why should I trust you? We are just a general boss and subordinate relationship, you have no responsibility to help me, and I am not obligated to explain my personal affairs to you. ”

"Bosses and subordinates, that's what you think?"

"Isn't it?"

Discipline took a breath and said helplessly: "Okay! Even if everyone is just a colleague, it's okay to help each other, right? Why should you turn me away a thousand miles away? You've helped me before, remember? You can say that you saved my life, and now I'm going to repay the favor and give you some help, there's nothing wrong with it, right? Chen Xi, listen to me, don't go. Running away won't solve the problem. Let's face it together and solve it. Well? ”

Chen Xi's heart was moved for a moment, but then he shook his head, "No, no." I can't run away. I beg you, just let me go! I can't let him find me, no. ”

"Chen Xi, calm down and listen to me, there is nothing that cannot be solved. Trust me, we'll figure it out. Escape is not the way, you think you escaped this time, but what about the next time? Are you going to run away for the rest of your life? ”

Chen Xi's face was frightened and desperate, a layer of mist surged into her eyes, and she shook her head desperately, "No, it's useless, you don't know him, he is very terrifying, we can't fight him at all." I beg you, let me go! ”

Discipline held her face and made her look at herself, "Listen, I said I can help you, I can help you." Take some courage, give yourself some confidence, give me some confidence, okay? ”

Chen Xi looked at him suspiciously, "Really? Can you really help me? ”

Discipline nodded firmly, "As long as you are willing, I will definitely help you, help you get rid of him completely, and never be afraid again." Rest assured, leave it to me. ”

Tears finally came out of Chen Xi's eyes, no one had said to her for many years, "Don't worry, leave it to me", all the difficulties and problems are carried by her alone, and it feels good to have someone to rely on.

Discipline's thumb wiped the tears from her face, and he whispered, "Now can you tell me if the child is he?" ”

Tu Mingxin says:

Thank you for the hope of the previous life, the goodness is like water, the angels love the beautiful roses, and the little fairies who have cast the diamond, 3Q. Your support is what motivates me to write all the way, thank you.
