Chapter 36: Mu Qiang

Chen Xi: "My father." ”

When she graduated from graduate school, Chen Songming came to Tokyo to attend the graduation ceremony, Chen Songming has always loved face, at that time Qin Hui also brought her current husband over, in order not to be compared to Qin Hui's incumbent, he deliberately bought an expensive suit, but he is usually used to wearing casual clothes, and tying the Windsor knot stumped the two father and daughter.

Chen Xi remembered the old things and smiled.

When she laughed, a small shallow pear vortex appeared on her left cheek.

This small pear vortex is peculiar and only emerges under certain expressions.

But Gao Zhexing saw it, he grabbed her hand and asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”

"I remembered an old incident with my father."

"You smile beautifully."

Chen Xi has been praised by countless people for being beautiful, but when these words came out of Gao Zhexing's mouth, they swept into people's hearts like wings, and his face turned red.

At this time, she was a tempting peach in Gao Zhexing's eyes, and he did not hesitate to bow his head to taste it.

It was another lingering kiss, and it was ten minutes before the two left the office.

When waiting for the elevator, Chen Xi asked Gao Zhexing, in a joking tone, "Who do you want me to help you open this time?" ”

At the seaside resort, she was very impressed, and the cup of hot tea was really hot!

Gao Zhexing looked at her, his eyes were gentle, "Do you know how to play Go?" ”

"A little."

Who he saw, he didn't say, Chen Xi couldn't figure out his way of acting, but he didn't ask.

She thought that Gao Zhexing would take her to the clubhouse restaurant or something, but the two of them just took the elevator down to the thirtieth floor.

There is an antiquely decorated teahouse on the thirtieth floor, there is no signboard at the door, and Chen Xi estimates that it is the place where Huayang Group receives guests internally.

As soon as I entered, a waiter came over, "Mr. Gao, Mr. Watanabe has arrived." ”

The waiter led them into the innermost room.

Chen Xi saw a middle-aged man sitting at the end of the tea table, and she guessed that the person should be Watanabe.

After Gao Zhexing came in, Watanabe got up to greet him, and Gao Zhexing introduced Chen Xi to him as his girlfriend.

Watanabe was a little stunned, but shook hands with Chen Xi amicably, and to Chen Xi's surprise, he spoke standard Chinese.

The waiter poured tea for the three of them, and after a few words of greeting, Watanabe said: "I have heard that Mr. Gao is good at chess, I wonder if there is a chance to ask for a lesson or two today?" ”

Gao Zhexing: "It's just a pastime to pass the time, it's not worth it!" Mr. Watanabe has been playing chess since elementary school, and Gao is afraid that he will not be able to parry a few steps. ”

Watanabe: "Mr. Gao, this is tormenting me. ”

Although the two were polite, Chen Xi saw the chess table on the table, and they set it up before they came in, and this game of chess was inevitable.

Gao Zhexing held the sunspot, Watanabe held the white, and after a while, the black and white on the chess table were mixed, each forming a formation.

You come and go, and the chess pieces play almost a full game, but the winner is not scored.

Chen Xi observed the chessboard and also looked at the expressions of the two.

Gao Zhexing was leisurely, and it seemed that at the moment, he didn't care about winning or losing the chess game, but Watanabe's expression became more and more nervous, and there were fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

I don't know how long later, when the chess game was heating up, the waiter came in and told the three of them that dinner had been prepared in the back kitchen.

Gao Zhexing seemed to be tired, and breathed a long sigh of relief, "It seems that this game of chess is indistinguishable today, does Mr. Watanabe want to eat first?" ”

Watanabe's face was not good, "Mr. Gao agreed, I have been bothering for a long time, and it is time to leave." ”

Gao Zhexing did not stay.

After Watanabe left, Chen Xi looked at the chess game thoughtfully.

Gao Zhexing asked her, "What's wrong?" ”

Chen Xi is not proficient in Go, but he is not completely ignorant, "Since you played Tianyuan, you can obviously end the game and win with one move, why do you have to give in step by step?" ”

Gao Zhexing held the teacup in his hand and smiled lightly: "Playing chess is the most taboo to be in a hurry, the son is not powerful, Watanabe will press step by step, I don't spend a little more time, how can he see who killed the deer?" ”

Now, Chen Xi understood, the two said they were friends, but in fact, they were more like opponents, saying that it was a game of chess, but in the end it was still a game in the shopping mall!

Gao Zhexing continued: "Watanabe's company has developed rapidly in recent years and has become a leader in the industry, not long ago robbed our Huayang Group's project in Hong Kong City, and wanted to take the opportunity to give Huayang Group a disadvantage, to be on an equal footing with Huayang Group. Playing chess, I just want Watanabe to understand that I have countless ways to control the overall situation, and if I don't make a move, I have already given him a thin face. ”

And there is one more thing, Gao Zhexing didn't say, Watanabe's grandfather has always wanted to marry Huayang Group and bring Chen Xi over, which is to show his attitude and will not accept it.

Watanabe's expression before leaving, it should have been understood.

Chen Xi looked at Gao Zhexing's side face, it is undeniable that this man is really charming, but it is also unfathomable.

Most women are strong, and Chen Xi admits that he is also a part of the vulgarity.

She had seen Gao Zhexing's cities and methods, but every time she thought that she had taken a step closer to understanding him, and then found that it was just the tip of the iceberg.

In the final analysis, the relationship between the two is progressing too fast, which makes her feel unreal and a little passive at the same time.

Gao Zhexing ordered someone to bring food in, and seeing that Chen Xi was still thoughtful, he asked, "What are you still thinking?" This expression. ”

Chen Xi didn't tell him that he felt that the two were progressing too fast, and it was pointless to talk about it now.

She changed the subject, "Thank you for my aunt and nephew." ”

Li Wei deserved it, and when such a gambler was caught, it was simply to eliminate harm for the people.

Gao Zhexing played with the chess pieces casually and said, "He shouldn't provoke you." ”

It is a very warm feeling to be protected and cherished, Chen Xi's heart warmed, and then he was curious, "Is it that the people who provoke you have no good results?" ”

Gao Zhexing looked over, his deep eyes glanced at her meaningfully, and there seemed to be a smile between his eyebrows, "What do you think?" ”

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, and understood, he was so hot that he staggered his gaze, but smiled lightly.

She provoked him too.

The waiter came in to deliver the food, interrupting the somewhat charming atmosphere.

The waiter put one of the white bowls with golden soup in front of Chen Xi, Gao Zhexing stopped the waiter and said to Chen Xi: "This is crab roe soup, are you allergic to crabs, do you want to change this?" ”

Chen Xi shook his head, "No, I occasionally eat crabs." ”

She estimated that he asked this because the last time he ate at a restaurant near the rehabilitation hospital, he saw Shen Jiayang and they ordered a large plate of crabs, but she didn't eat any of them. It's not that she doesn't eat crabs, but she didn't eat because she had a cold and a period and just left, so she didn't eat it because she was afraid of the cold.

It's just that I didn't expect him to remember this detail.

Gao Zhexing told the waiter to put it down.

Chen Xi lowered her head and scooped a spoonful of soup, and she smiled lightly.

Gao Zhexing looked at her, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Chen Xi looked up at him, "No, I just think the dishes are very good tonight." ”

The soup juice is delicious, very sweet, and the heart is also sweet.

Dinner lasted almost two hours, mainly because Gao Zhexing received a few phone calls, so even the waiter was disrupted from the rhythm of serving.

When Gao Zhexing began to answer the first call, although he motioned to Chen Xi to continue eating with his eyes, Chen Xi still stopped.

After Gao Zhexing answered the third call, Chen Xi joked: "The people who are looking for you today are not very friendly, so they call me from a meal point." ”

Gao Zhexing smiled, "There was an acquisition case recently, and I was busy. ”

Chen Xi nodded, remembering that Ayou told her in the morning that he had only come back from a business trip last night.

The waiter served another dish, and Gao Zhexing sandwiched a piece of fried fish steak for Chen Xi, "Try this, with Japanese-style yuzu vinegar, it will taste better." As he spoke, he put the grapefruit vinegar on Chen Xi's side.

Chen Xi: "Thank you. ”

She wanted to say something, but Gao Zhexing stopped moving.

He took out another mobile phone from the inner pocket of his suit, looked at the interface, and connected, "Grandma." ”

Chen Xi glanced at the other mobile phone he had placed on the table, and she propped her chin and gently turned her face to the other side.

Gao Zhexing didn't speak, the person over there said a few words, and finally he said, "I'll go over later." ”

After he put away the phone, Chen Xi thought he was in a hurry and said, "You have to go ahead and get busy." ”

"Don't get in the way, I'll be over later." Gao Zhexing put the phone back in his inner pocket, but took it out again in an instant and made a call.

Chen Xi's bag on the side vibrated slightly, she took out her mobile phone, saw an unfamiliar number, and just wanted to pick it up, Gao Zhexing waved the mobile phone in her hand to her, "It's my other number." ”

Chen Xi sighed and lowered his head to save his phone.

His relatives called, and she guessed it was his private number.

Soon I heard him say, "This number, you can find me 24 hours a day." ”

After the meal, Gao Zhexing left first, and the road to Lanyuan was in the opposite direction to Chen Xi's home, and he arranged for Sun Jingyun to send Chen Xi back.

When leaving the teahouse, Chen Xi met Ye Dongcheng at the door, and her good mood changed suddenly.

When she saw Ye Dongcheng, she remembered the last time she was harassed by Boss Lei, and a wave of anger rose from the soles of Chen Xi's feet to the top of her head, if there was a knife at this time, she felt that she would stab him.

She glared at him hatefully, Ye Dongcheng looked at him at the same time, first surprised, and then walked over casually, showing his usual signature smile, "Cici, such a coincidence!" ”

Chen Xi exposed his hypocrisy, "Ye Dongcheng, don't pretend, Boss Lei's matter, I already know that you instigated it." ”

The smile on Ye Dongcheng's face slowly faded, and the sinister in his eyes revealed a hint of it, "You can come here, Gao Zhexing brought you here, right?" With him to support you, now you dare to shout at me head-on? ”

Chen Xi: "Even if I don't have his support, I will settle accounts with you sooner or later!" ”

Ye Dongcheng laughed wildly as if he had heard a big joke, "Cici, you are still too young, you don't know how thick the sky is, you go out and ask, in Pengcheng, who dares to shout at me?" ”

Chen Xi said softly: "Pengcheng doesn't have it, but it doesn't mean that there are no other places." ”

After she was calculated by Ye Dongcheng, she asked He Jiaqi to find someone to check Ye Dongcheng, he was once involved in a single murder case in Hong Kong City, which was covered up at that time, but what happened could not disappear, she gave a sum of money to the investigator, the purpose was to find evidence that could convict Ye Dongcheng.

Ye Dongcheng still disagreed, "It seems that you have followed Gao Zhexing, and your cognition has not improved much." Haha, it's also possible that he was just playing with you, so he didn't teach you not to be overwhelmed. ”

Chen Xi stopped talking nonsense with him and left.

Ye Dongcheng's malicious voice came from behind, "I'll see how long you can stay with him!" ”

Entering the elevator, Chen Xi's face was immediately covered with loneliness.

She has always been kind to others, and she will not take the initiative to make evil friends with others, if Ye Dongcheng hadn't deceived people too much, she would not have torn her face with him.

Thinking of Ye Dongcheng's last words, she sighed secretly.

She didn't know what she would develop with Gao Zhe in the end.

Some people love more because they know better, and there are people who separate because they understand.
