Meng Wenting was a little swept away, but he still said: "I'm sorry, lawyer Xie, I didn't think it through." He took the initiative to introduce the person sitting next to him, "This is my daughter, Meng Duolan." She happened to be nearby and came over to have a meal with me. ”

Meng Duolan got up, dressed smartly, with a short skirt in a suit, beautiful and heroic. She walked up to Xie Shang and took the initiative to stretch out her hand: "I have admired the name for a long time, lawyer Xie." ”

Xie Shang politely shook the other party's hand, let go, and sat down opposite Meng Wenting.

The waiter handed the menu to the lady.

"Is Lawyer Xie taboo?"

"Nope."

Meng Duolan asked the waiter to recommend a few special dishes, and then turned to her father and asked, "Dad, do you want to drink some wine?" ”

Meng Wenting looked at the other side: "Lawyer Xie, have two drinks with me?" ”

Xie Shang declined: "I'm sorry, I came by car, and I don't drink." ”

Meng Wenting wanted to persuade him to drink, but Meng Duolan pulled his sleeve, Meng Wenting gave up and asked for a pot of tea. After Meng Duolan finished ordering, he put the menu on Xie Shang's side.

He gave it directly to the waiter.

The tea came first, and the waiter finished pouring the tea for the guests, silently withdrew, and brought it to the door.

Meng Wenting chatted: "Your proposal last time-"

"Lawyer Meng, it's not appropriate to talk about business today."

Originally, he came to talk about business, but now that outsiders are here, Xie Shang doesn't like to distinguish between public and private.

"Let's talk about personal matters." Meng Wenting was talkative and took the initiative to start the topic, "What hobbies does Lawyer Xie have when he is not busy?" ”

Xie Shang took off his coat and placed it properly and neatly on the empty seat next to him, and the black shirt on his upper body was tied with a black tie, so that the matching of the same color would theoretically greatly reduce the sense of existence, but there was no such embodiment in Xie Shang, and the black lining made him look more calm and elegant. The buttons of the shirt are all buttoned completely, which is clearly very indifferent and alienated, but people can't take their eyes off it.

"I don't have any hobbies," Xie Shang said to himself, "I'm very boring." ”

Meng Wenting said in the tone of an elder: "My family is also blue, I don't like to go out very much, next time you can make an appointment to go out to relax, young people also have topics to talk about." ”

Xie Shang did not answer.

The waiter knocks on the door and comes in to serve the food.

During the meal, Meng Wenting chatted a few words, and Xie replied, but the answers were very brief, polite and measured, and there was a sense of distance.

Meng Duolan couldn't help but look at Xie Shang in between meals. She had heard of him a long time ago, and she used to think that a person who knew piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was good at Si Xiang would have a strong book fragrance on his body, like a poet who holds a pen and painted, and was mostly elegant, but the last time she saw him in Yangon Tower, Xie Shang gave her the feeling of being more like a hunter with a gun and hunting beasts, using an inappropriate metaphor: elegant thugs.

"Last time at the birthday banquet of the old lady of the Qin family, thank you for helping me break the siege." Meng Duolan picked up the cup, brushed her skirt and got up, "I'll replace the wine with tea, and I will toast you." ”

Xie Shang put down his chopsticks and still sit: "You don't need to respect me, I didn't relieve you of the siege, but it just happened that I was in a bad mood that day." ”

"Either way, I'm a beneficiary." Meng Duolan drank the tea in the cup: "Dad, you talk first, I'll go to the bathroom." ”

Meng Wenting had something to say to Xie Shang that Meng Duolan was a smart person. She will come over today, and she took the initiative to mention it to Meng Wenting. People will meet countless people in their lives, but there are not many people who are amazing at a glance, she doesn't want to miss it, she wants to know Xie Shang officially, and Meng Wenting also supports her.

Meng Wenting didn't go around in circles, and asked more directly: "Lawyer Xie, what do you think of my daughter?" ”

The moment Xie Shang entered the door and saw Meng Duolan, he understood Meng Wenting's plan.

"Is this your request for cooperation?"

Meng Wenting didn't want to say too much, after all, Xie Shang was an object that was difficult for him to control, and he still had a little temptation: "I don't need to go online like this, I just think you are just the right age, you can get to know each other." And if we cooperate, it would be good if we could forge a stronger relationship. ”

This can also be replaced with a simpler word: marriage.

"You should ask me a question before you do that."

"What's the problem?"

Xie Shang said: "Whether I am single or not. ”

Meng Wenting smiled, making himself seem less initiativeless: "I heard your second uncle say that you don't have a partner at the moment." ”

Xie Shang didn't think about it and corrected: "I have a marriage partner." ”

Xie Shang's target is his father Xie Liangjiang, the stakes are very high, if he is not completely sure, Meng Wenting does not want to break the current balance, the most important thing is that he does not trust Xie Shang, and he does not dare to trust him, so as not to be eaten to the bones, after all, Xie Shang is not a good stubble.

If he could, Meng Wenting still hoped that Xie Shang could really go to the same boat with him, and it was the best way to conclude an in-law: "Isn't it not married yet?" ”

"Lawyer Meng, you seem to have made a mistake, and it was you, not me, who were chosen." Xie Shang didn't want to waste any more words, "Give me an answer before tonight." ”

Meng Wenting's face is not very good-looking.

Meng Duolan happened to come back and asked casually, "What are you talking about?" ”

Meng Wenting said: "Talk about work. ”

"Don't talk about work when you eat."

Meng Duolan sat back in her seat, she touched up her makeup, and did not move her chopsticks again.

Xie Shang ate very little, the dishes did not suit his appetite, and the people did not suit his appetite. He took the clothes: "I still have something to do, the two of you use it slowly." ”

Meng Duolan glanced at his father.

Meng Wenting nodded, meaning that he had also eaten well.

Meng Duolan had just gone out and had already settled the bill: "We're also done eating, let's go together." ”

The dining room is on the fourth floor and the garage is on the negative first floor.

When taking the elevator, Meng Wenting asked Xie Shang: "Is it inconvenient for Lawyer Xie to help me send Duolan?" "I have to go back to the law firm." ”

Xie Shang stood on the far left, leaning back, and he refused: "Sorry, not by the way." He asked Ms. Meng, "Do I need to help you get a taxi?" ”

It's so hard to approach, so polite that you can't fault anything.

"No, you don't."

The elevator goes to the negative first floor and the door opens.

Meng Wenting's father and daughter went out first, but Xie Shang's footsteps stopped for a few seconds.

Meng Duolan turned his head and asked, "Lawyer Xie." ”

He looked out of the elevator, his eyes were very different from just now, he didn't seem to be interested in anything just now, but now his eyes were bright and burning, he came out of the elevator, he started very slowly, and then his steps were faster, and he walked straight ahead.

Xie Shang's car was parked in the parking space on the left.

Meng Duolan looked over, Xie Shang walked in front of a person, the light in the garage was dim, and he couldn't see people clearly.

"Changling."

Wen Changling didn't agree.

Xie Shang asked her, "Are you waiting for someone?" ”

Wen Changling was super perfunctory: "Hmm." Her gaze swept over Meng Duolan, looking careless and unconcerned, "Dating?" ”

"It's not."

Oh.

It has nothing to do with her.

She casually asked, "Blind date?" ”

"It's not." Xie Shang said, "It's a business matter. ”

Business ghost.

Meng Duolan is the legal director of Huaqi Technology, and Huaqi Technology has not cooperated with KE Law Firm recently. And the elderly man Wen Changling also recognized that he was Meng Wenting, a member of the KE Management Committee, and he didn't need to think about it to know that he was Meng Duolan's father.

The father takes his daughter to meet a marriageable man.

Business ghost.

Xie Shang was so annoying.

Wen Changling had an indifferent expression: "Your 'colleague' is waiting for you." ”

Xie Shang didn't even look back, only Wen Changling in his eyes: "Take my car, I'll send you back." ”

Wen Changling had a cold face: "I have a companion." ”

There is no second watch today, good night
