Chapter 50: It's hard to coax
No wonder Huo Yan couldn't pull away, it turned out that he was busy with the work of the master of Duanshui.
It's really hard for him, he has all the opportunities, and he also distracts himself from increasing tasks.
"Mrs. Huo." Bai Yiyi saw Qiao Shinian and called politely.
He said to Huo Yan with interest: "Yanci, there's nothing else, I'll go back to Bozhou first." β
"Hmm."
After Bai Yiyi left, Huo Yanci looked at Qiao Shinian's empty hands, as if asking her why she didn't buy him anything.
Qiao Shinian turned a blind eye and asked indifferently: "What about the ancient inkstone?" β
Huo Yan frowned, not understanding why Qiao Shinian, who was still fine on the phone, suddenly changed his face.
Thinking of Bai Yiyi, who had just left, Huo Yanci said patiently: "Bai Yiyi is here to report to me about tomorrow's cocktail partyββ"
"It's not about me." Qiao Shinian interrupted Huo Yanci, "If you want to take it, hurry up, I'm also very busy." β
Huo Yan was silent, and finally took out the wooden box containing the inkstone from the drawer, "Why don't I cancel the meeting and accompany you to your grandfather's house?" β
"Not necessarily." Qiao Shinian took the wooden box and left without looking back.
What is not inseparable!
Why did she go down, she was so bad that she couldn't find a second man without Huo Yanci?
Lu Chennan happened to meet Qiao Shinian at the elevator entrance, and was debating whether to say hello, when he saw her passing by him directly with a cold face!
Lu Chennan touched his nose, why did this Qiao Shinian suddenly become so unpopular?
Entering the president's office, Lu Chennan saw that Huo Yanci's face was not very good-looking.
"Brother Ci, Qiao Shinian is here to make you angry again?"
Huo Yanci looked at him and said angrily: "Qiao Shinian is also called by you?" It's not big, it's not small. β
Lu Chennan: "......" He has always called it like this, and he never said that he couldn't quit his brother before.
But Lu Chennan is a person with rich emotional experience after all, and he understands what is going on as soon as he sees this situation.
Brother Ci is thinking about Qiao Shi, so he even cares about such a trivial matter as a name.
So Lu Chennan changed his words with great eyesight, "Brother Ci, my sister-in-law just came to you, she doesn't seem to be very happy, do you have any contradictions?" β
Huo Yanci glanced at Lu Chennan, he didn't want to satisfy his gossip, but he couldn't figure out Qiao Shinian's emotions, so he briefly said what he had just done.
"You mean, my sister-in-law is not happy to see Bai Yiyi here?" Lu Chennan was puzzled, "But Bai Yiyi is here to report work, so my sister-in-law won't be so indistinguishable from public and private, right?" β
"Brother Ci, think about it, is there anything missing?"
Huo Yanci was annoyed and said, "No." Bai Yiyi only said hello and left with the gift box. β
"Gift box?" Lu Chennan grasped the point, "What gift box?" β
"Uncle Bai's birthday today, a gift prepared by the secretary. I was going to send someone to the Bai family, but Bai Yiyi wanted to report to work, so I asked her to take it back by the way. β
Lu Chennan understood as soon as he heard it, "Brother Ci, sister-in-law is uncomfortable because of this." β
Huo Yanci twisted his handsome eyebrows, "Why are you uncomfortable?" β
As an elder who watched him grow up, isn't it right for Uncle Bai to give some gifts politely on his birthday?
Lu Chennan said: "It's not that your behavior of giving gifts on your birthday is wrong, it's that my sister-in-law mistakenly thinks that you bought more than just Mr. Qiao." β
"But it's not a big problem, as long as you explain it to your sister-in-law later, I guarantee that she won't be angry anymore."
Seeing Lu Chennan's expression of "I understand a woman's mind very well, praise me quickly", Huo Yanci snorted coldly, "Who said you wanted to explain it to her?" β
"What does it have to do with me that she wants to be angry about such a trivial matter."
Lu Chennan kindly persuaded: "Brother Ci, let's explain it as soon as possible." β
"Women will only be angry at the beginning for this one thing, but if you don't explain and don't coax, they will accumulate all the things they were angry about before and hold grudges together, and then it will be really difficult to coax."
What is difficult to coax, he does not coax.
Huo Yanci didn't want to listen to Lu Chennan's nonsense, so he asked coldly: "Is the plan ready?" Now let's go to the conference room and explain to you. β
The topic of "......" jumped so much that Lu Chennan was suddenly pitiful, "Brother Ci, can you release water for me?" β
Huo Yan said coldly: "No." β
Lu Chennan cried: "Brother quit, you can't take out the anger of your sister-in-law on me!" β
Huo Yan glanced at him, "If you talk nonsense, get out." β
Lu Chennan quickly shut up.
β¦β¦
Qiao Shi read it to his grandfather's house.
gave him the ancient inkstone that Huo Yan bought in resignation, and his grandfather smiled when he took it out.
"The vision of the inkstone is really good, and now this kind of white inkstone is rare to see, and I have always wanted to collect it! Niannian, do you want to appreciate and appreciate? β
"Don't." Qiao Shi didn't want to glance at Yu Guang, if it wasn't for Huo Yanci to give it to her grandfather, she wouldn't have taken it.
"Grandpa, I'll go to the operation room for a while and make some incense."
Last time, Qiao Shinian bought a string of Buddhist beads for her grandmother and ordered a booklet, and she wanted to pick out some gifts for her grandmother today.
Grandma has no shortage of valuable things, and when she heard Huo Yanci ask her to send things to her grandfather, she wanted to come back and make a special sleep aid incense for her grandmother.
Qiao Shinian often mixes incense and makes incense at home, and Qiao Donghai is used to it.
He looked at the inkstone lovingly, "Go ahead." β
The operation room is located in the last room of the courtyard, which is quiet and spacious, which is the place where my mother often stayed during her lifetime.
Qiao Shinian, like her mother, has been sensitive to fragrance since she was a child, and she also learned to concoct and blend with her mother.
But to become a professional perfumer, you have to undergo very strict scent training, and her mother is reluctant to let her train because of her hard work, so Qiao Shinian does these are all tickets.
Except for her grandfather, most people don't know her true level.
After working in the operation room for a few hours, seeing that it was not early, Qiao Shinian planned to live at home.
The fragrance process is quite cumbersome, and some incense still needs to take time to stand, of course Qiao Donghai understands.
"Your room is cleaned every day, it's very clean, just stay there. It's been a busy afternoon, come and eat! β
Qiao Shinian and his grandfather sat at the dining table.
The nanny at home cooked all the meals she liked, and Qiao Shinian had a full meal.
After dinner, Qiao Shinian accompanied his grandfather for a walk.
"Niannian, I said yesterday that your aunt was there, and she promised that she would not go to the house to ask for help from Yanci in the future." Justice.
Qiao Shinian knew in her heart that her aunt was just a superficial promise, and she would still look for her.
However, in order to make outsiders feel at ease, Qiao Shinian still smiled, "The matter is over." Huo Yanci also agreed to help. β
"Last time you mentioned looking for a professional management team, I talked to your uncle, and although he would consider it, he was obviously not willing. Your uncle has also contributed a lot to the company in recent years, and I can't force him to accept my opinion. Grandpa said again.
Qiao Shinian smiled and said, "I understand, it's me who owes it to consideration." Uncle has paid so much for the company, and he is not happy to let others take care of it at once. So I thought, why don't we invite a powerful vice president to come over and help my uncle? β
Grandpa thought for a moment, "I do have a suitable candidate." β
Qiao Shinian suggested, "Grandpa, you choose a good person and let the other party enter the company according to the normal procedure, so that your uncle will use him with peace of mind." β
"You little goblin," Grandpa poked her forehead, "and guard against your uncle." β
Can you prevent it, my uncle has changed the old men of the company all over the place.
Grandpa didn't know, but he just turned a blind eye.
Qiao Shi admitted with a smile, "If I can defend against anyone, I won't guard against my grandfather!" β
"By the way, grandpa, Qiao Leyan seems to want to go abroad, do you want to tell your uncle and let her go abroad for two years?"
Qiao Shinian didn't mention seeing Qiao Leyan in the morning, "She always fails her course now, maybe she can learn it in a different environment?" β
The main reason is that Qiao Leyan went abroad, and Yuan Hongzhi couldn't entangle her, maybe he could avoid the tragedy of his previous life.
Qiao Donghai said: "Your aunt mentioned it once, saying that she would be a daughter of Le Yan, and she resolutely disagreed with her going abroad." Now it seems that I am looking for a partner for Le Yan. β
Aunt Qiao Leyan protects Qiao Leyan tightly, and she won't listen to her grandfather at all.
This can only be considered in the long run.
After taking a walk, Qiao Shinian pinched his grandfather's shoulder for a while.
After her grandfather rested, she returned to the operation room.
A few hours later, Qiao Shinian prepared a soothing incense with essential oils such as vetiver and bergamot according to her grandmother's preferences and physical condition.
Thinking that Zhou Tiancheng said that the sleeping aid incense last time was useful to his mother, he prepared some more.
When Qiao Shinian was done, he was so tired that he went back to his room and fell asleep on the bed.
When I woke up, the sun outside was almost scorching my butt.
Qiao Shinian stretched his waist, and the bed he slept in since he was a child was still comfortable.
She decided that when she got divorced, she would do nothing and stay at home for a month.
Being a rice worm every day, accompanying my grandfather every day, it's cool to think about it.
After washing, Qiao Shinian didn't bother to comb his hair, and went downstairs directly.
But I heard my grandfather's hearty laughter from the courtyard outside.
This early in the morning, why is my grandfather so happy?
Qiao Shinian walked outside and found that his grandfather was teaching Huo Yanci and Zhou Tiancheng to practice Tai Chi, "You have a good look, this qi has to be lucky like this." β
Huo Yanci's Zhou Tiancheng was wearing a straight shirt and trousers, with a serious and serious expression, and they were doing not very skilled Tai Chi movements together, which was a bit funny no matter how you looked at it.
"Poof." Qiao Shinian couldn't help laughing.
Huo Yanci turned his head to look at her, his eyes paused slightly, and then he glared at her warningly and stood up straight.
Zhou Tiancheng politely called "Mrs."
"Zhou Tezhu, I made some incense again, and I will ask someone to bring it back for you later."
"Yes, thank you, ma'am."
"I've been thinking about it, and I've been here for a while." Qiao Donghai said with a smile, "Yan Ci, you accompany Nian Nian to breakfast, Xiao Zhou, let's continue to practice." β
Qiao Shinian wanted to say that he didn't need Huo Yan to accompany him, but he didn't want to brush off his grandfather's kind arrangement.
She turned and went into the house and asked the maid to fetch the incense and send it out.
Soon, Huo Yanci came to the house.
Qiao Shinian twisted his eyebrows and looked at him, who was much taller than himself, "Why are you here?" β
Huo Yanci looked at ease, "I'm going to go to a municipal meeting around here later, and I'll stop by to see my grandfather." β
Qiao Shinian has no doubt about it.
Huo Yanci has a bit of a conscience, and he knows that he has time to visit his grandfather.
Seeing the look of satisfaction on Qiao Shinian's face, Huo Yanci was inexplicably a little relieved.
At this time, Qiao Shinian's face was not washed or combed, and his pajamas were loose and casual, looking lazy and coquettish.
Especially those big eyes, shining and clear, make people feel the urge to kiss down.
Huo Yanci looked at her and asked in a low voice, "Qiao Shinian, were you angry with me yesterday?" β
