Chi Qingtai didn't know about this.

The cake was ordered by Secretary Zhou, and the handwritten love poem was sent by the cake shop for an event, and he himself was so busy these days that his feet did not touch the ground, and he slept directly in the company, and he had long forgotten that Xie Shuyan said that he was only a birthday a week ago.

This morning, Chi Qingtai held another super lengthy voting meeting, and together with other executives, he approved the projects that Sugimori could invest in. As the meal approached, he finally had a little free.

Not long after, Secretary Zhou asked him if he would bring lunch to the office or go to the staff cafeteria.

Every Monday is the time of the employee cafeteria of Shansheng Capital, Chi Qingtai did not hesitate, picked up his mobile phone and got up: "Go to the canteen." ”

The investment company is small but sophisticated, and they are only the Greater China branch here, and the staff is becoming more and more streamlined, with no more than 100 employees in the branch, which only occupies two floors of the office building on Financial Street.

Located on the first floor of the company, the dining hall offers a warm dining environment that includes cuisines from around the world, and free breakfast and lunch on weekdays, so even the most expensive financial elite can't fault anything about it.

But most of the company is running business outside, and the cafeteria is more like a pantry for communication, where different groups of people get together, talk softly, and share the industry gossip they hear.

"Bang-"

Suddenly, a young man in a suit slammed his plate on the table, making a loud noise.

The person at the next table silently moved the plate away and lowered his voice: "Why is it so angry?" Who provoked Zhao Gongzi? ”

"You don't know yet, do you?" A colleague whispered, "Hasn't he been working on the Helios car project lately?" was rejected by the Red Demon King before, and this weekend he took the Red Demon King to see Helios' project roadshow, but he still failed to pass Monday's voting meeting. ”

The colleague didn't understand: "Anyway, his father is Sugimori's partner, since he likes Helios so much, he votes directly, why do you have to look at the face of the Red Demon King?" ”

"He wanted to, but Lao Zhao always put him under the Red Demon King, Zhao Gongzi has no investment decision-making power, and every one of his projects must be approved by the Red Demon King."

"No wonder Zhao Gongzi doesn't like the Red Demon King every day, if it's me, I don't like the Red ...... either"

A colleague next to him touched him.

The gossip man raised his head and met Chi Qingtai's cold eyes.

The man's face changed, and he quickly changed his words: "I don't like to eat either...... Eat this sand tea sauce like loose! ”

“……”

"You'd better shut up." The colleague kicked him, smiled and said hello to Chi Qingtai, "Hello boss, why don't you come to the cafeteria to eat today?" ”

Chi Qingtai nodded and walked to the window with Secretary Zhou.

Greetings sounded around, and some people greeted warmly: "Boss, today's sand tea beef pot is delicious, highly recommended!" ”

Chi Qingtai: "......"

He didn't want to see Shacha-chan anymore lately.

Chi Qingtai casually had a lunch and made a quick decision.

Secretary Zhou came over with a dinner plate, and was just about to sit opposite Chi Qingtai, when a person suddenly interjected in front of him, and sat down without saying a word.

Zhao Qi, who was only rejected by Chi Qingtai in the morning, was very provocative and attracted the attention of the entire restaurant.

Seeing that the battle situation was about to escalate, Secretary Zhou hurriedly blocked the round between the two: "Manager Zhao, Mr. Chi is eating now, please talk about it later if you have work." ”

Zhao Qi didn't listen at all, stared at Chi Qingtai with a pair of eyes, and asked with a gloomy face: "Why don't you pass my project?" ”

He was like a balloon that had been blown up, ready to explode at the slightest touch.

Chi Qingtai raised his eyes: "Give me ten minutes to eat first?" ”

Zhao Qi looked at him calmly for two seconds, and then flipped the plate to the ground with a "clang".

The entire cafeteria was stunned and looked at Chi Qingtai in unison.

It seems that this meal will not be eaten today.

Chi Qingtai got up and instructed Secretary Zhou: "Find someone to clean up, Zhao Qi will come to my office." ”

Zhao Qi was like an angry cow and rushed into Chi Qingtai's office.

Ji Qingtai asked him: "You also watched Helios' roadshow on Sunday." ”

Zhao Qi was aggressive: "Am I blind?" Of course I did. ”

Chi Qingtai: "What did you find?" ”

Zhao Qi didn't have the heart to play dumb riddles with him, and said directly: "You said before that Helios has no technology, but now that they have technology, why are you still stuck in my project?" ”

Ji Qingtai was not provoked by him, but just asked: "What is the main focus of their project?" ”

Zhao Qi blurted out: "Production of cargo vehicles using hydrogen fuel cells. ”

Chi Qingtai asked again: "How many hydrogen-related patents did they publish at the press conference?" ”

Although Zhao Qi has a bad temper and a rushing personality, he is not a straw bag, and quickly replied: "There are two in total, one is a patent for hydrogen energy charging piles, and the other is a patent for hydrogen energy batteries." ”

Chi Qingtai raised his eyes and pointed out the crux of the problem: "A high-tech car manufacturer focusing on hydrogen energy has only two core technologies for hydrogen, do you think this is normal?" ”

Zhao Qi also noticed this, most car companies have hundreds of patents, and at least 100 of them should be about motors.

But out of trust in the founder and remorse for missing Qianli Automobile last time, Zhao Qi quickly shook his head: "They said that the patent was just not published for the time being, but in fact, it is already going through the process." What's really important is that their unmanned vehicles have begun to enter the final stages of research and development, and new product launches will be held at the end of this year at the latest, and early next year at the earliest. ”

Chi Qingtai: "Then wait until then." ”

"Then it's too late!" Zhao Qi was almost crazy, "Do you know that because of the delay in the last round, the VC of the Xie family has already led the investment in Helios, and we can only follow the investment if we enter the market now!" If you wait until their product is completely out before investing, you won't be able to eat anything. ”

"Since you insist," Chi Qingtai no longer persuaded him, and said coldly, "You can continue to apply for the voting meeting, but I won't pass." ”

"You-" Zhao Qi was angry, and slapped his hands directly on the desk, "Chi Qingtai, are you not used to me?" That's why they suppressed me everywhere in the company! ”

"Boss!" Secretary Zhou opened the door and poked in, and said vigilantly, "Do you need me to call a security guard?" ”

"No, you don't." Ji Qingtai waved him out.

Of course, he could ask the security guards to forcibly drag Zhao Qi away, but this would only exacerbate the conflict.

Soon only the two of them were left in the office, Chi Qingtai raised his head and said in a calm tone: "Zhao Qi, are you so capable?" ”

"What do you mean?" Zhao Qi glared at him.

"Can't convince me at work, so blame it on personal vendettas?" Chi Qingtai chuckled, his expression revealing a bit of disdain, "Would you rather believe that I am targeting you because of a personal grudge than admit that your business ability is not good?" ”

Zhao Qi: "What do you mean that my business ability is not good?" It's obvious that you are targeting me, and even such a good project as Helios will not pass! ”

"As I said, neither you nor Helios could convince me." Compared with the other party's anger, Ji Qingtai seemed a little too calm, he returned the application plan to Zhao Qi, and said calmly, "If you still want to convince me, then show more skills." If you want to use this plan to pass the voting meeting, then I advise you to dispel this idea as soon as possible, and it is better to go home and be your rich second generation. ”

"Chi Qingtai!" Zhao Qi's face turned pale, he snatched the document and threw it on the ground, "Don't rely on the fact that you are the person in charge of Shansheng Greater China, you can do whatever you want!" ”

A stack of A4 paper was quickly withdrawn from his hand, and before Chi Qingtai could let go, there was a hot pain in his index finger.

He quietly put his hand under the table and rang the call bell on the table: "Secretary Zhou, let someone ask Zhao Qi to go out." ”

"I don't need you to drive people away," Zhao Qi turned around coldly, "I'll leave myself." ”

Chi Qingtai added indifferently: "Also, notify the personnel department that Zhao Qi has been suspended for half a month." ”

"Chi Qingtai!" Zhao Qi was completely enraged, turned around and rushed towards him, but was restrained by the two security guards who rushed in, "You dare to suspend me!" ”

"Didn't you say I could do whatever I wanted?" Chi Qingtai slowly and methodically lowered his gloves, his voice without any emotion, "Congratulations, now you have seen it." ”

The security guard carried Zhao Qi out of the office, and Chi Qingtai moved his tight fingers and instructed Secretary Zhou: "Help me buy a box of iodophor and band-aids." ”

Secretary Zhou should get down, close the door and leave the office.

It didn't take long for Chi Qingtai to receive a call from the front desk. Chi Qingtai answered the phone: "What's the matter?" ”

"Boss," looking at the tall and handsome man in front of him, the well-trained front desk stumbled for the first time, "a gentleman who claims to be your husband is at the front desk." ”

Chi Qingtai: "Name." ”

Front desk: "He said his name was Xie Shuyun." ”

“……”

"Let him in."

Chi Qingtai hung up the phone and rubbed his swollen head. He has a bunch of things in his hands now, and he really doesn't have much energy to entertain Xie Shuyan.

Soon, the front desk led Xie Shuyun to his office.

Chi Qingtai: "Why are you here?" ”

Xie Shuxian: "You didn't come over this weekend. ”

Chi Qingtai: "I told you that I was working overtime on weekends. ”

"I know," Xie Shuyun put the thermos bucket on the table, "so I'm bringing you food today." ”

Chi Qingtai: ?

Xie Shuyun opened the thermos bucket directly, and took out beer duck, steamed pork ribs, carrot and corn pork bone soup from it, and the rice with rich rice flavor underneath, and he put a lot of effort into it at a glance.

It is indeed Xie Shuyun's craftsmanship, all of them are steaming, maybe they were sent over in his supercar.

"Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?" In an instant, Chi Qingtai's eyes changed, "You want to divorce me?" ”

Xie Shuyun: "How is it possible?!" ”

Chi Qingtai: "Then you did something sorry for me?" ”

Xie Shuyi: "No! ”

Chi Qingtai: "Is that asking for me?" ”

Xie Shuyun: "Not really. ”

Chi Qingtai is out of order now, he can't think of it after racking his brains, why Xie Shuyun suddenly changed his temperament, and came all the way to bring him food.

"I'm just passing by and bringing you food by the way," Xie Shu stiffened his face and tried to put on a cold expression, "Don't think about it, I don't mean anything else." ”

Chi Qingtai: ?

What else does it mean?

The more Chi Qingtai listened, the more dazed he became, but he was really hungry, so he didn't bother to continue to ask, so he buried his head in eating lunch.

Xie Shu's mood was a little complicated for a while.

Since he rejected Chi Qingtai that day, Ji Qingtai has avoided him for a whole week, and he has not even returned for the weekend.

Xie Shuyan had no intention of clearing himself, but it was true that he hurt people.

But he couldn't give Chi Qingtai extra feelings, so he could only make up for him from somewhere else.

"You have a bad stomach, remember to eat on time," Xie Shu said lazily, "I will cook for you when I have time in the future, and if I don't have time, let the cooking aunt cook it and send it to you." ”

"No," Chi Qingtai didn't want to be so troublesome, "My schedule is not fixed, I don't have much time in the company, and Secretary Zhou will also remind me to eat." ”

As soon as the words fell, Secretary Zhou pushed the door and came in, carrying a shopping bag in his hand: "Boss, Band-Aid and iodophor." ”

Chi Qingtai raised his chin: "Put it on the table." ”

Only then did Xie Shuyun notice Chi Qingtai's inactive right hand: "Your hand is injured?" ”

"It's not a big deal," Chi Qingtai took a sip of hot soup and said casually, "I accidentally got scratched by the paper." ”

Xie Shuyi glanced at it again, but didn't ask again.

After lunch, Ji Qingtai packed up the dishes and went to the bathroom to wash his hands. He has a small suite in his office, including a small bedroom and bathroom, and he occasionally works too late and sleeps directly in the company.

Ji Qingtai came out after washing his hands, and he didn't wear gloves because he wanted to put on a band-aid.

This was the first time Xie Shuyun saw Chi Qingtai's hand. As handsome and beautiful as himself, the skin that has been hidden by gloves for many years is translucent white, only the joints are faintly pink. Cyan blood vessels were buried under the skin, like some kind of unique mark.

Chi Qingtai drew paper to dry the water on his hands, he injured his right hand, and his left hand was not very convenient for medicine.

"Secretary Zhou," Chi Qingtai called, "come and help me." ”

Secretary Zhou got the order and hurriedly walked over. Before he could touch his boss, he was stopped by a big hand.

"I'll come," Xie Shu turned around and took the cotton swab in Chi Qingtai's hand, looking a little displeased, "The professional doctor is right in front of you, and you still want to find a layman to bandage you?" ”

Secretary Zhou, who suddenly lay down the gun: "......"

Chi Qingtai couldn't see Xie Shu's lazy temper, but he was not used to it. He raised his head with a faint expression: "I'm not afraid that you will say that you don't bandage outsiders?" ”

Xie Shuyan: "......"

He really remembered that he had rejected him that day, but in fact he ate all the cakes later, and they tasted very good. It's just that he won't tell Chi Qingtai about this. Chi Qingtai already had other thoughts about him, and it would be bad if he heard this misunderstanding.

Xie Shuyi knew that he was at a loss and did not refute.

He half-squatted in front of Chi Qingtai, and gently cleaned his wounds.

How serious can a paper cut wound be? Xie Shulazy took the trouble to eliminate the poison three times, and when he applied the band-aid, he was also very serious, as if he was doing some kind of surgery and suturing.

A small wound tossed for a few minutes before it was finished, and Chi Qingtai moved his fingers, opened the drawer and put the rest of the band-aid inside.

That's when he saw the Montblanc box in the drawer.

I didn't send it out on my birthday, but he put it in a drawer later. engraved Xie Shuyan's name, he used some of it inappropriately, and he couldn't give it away. It happened that Xie Shuyun was here now, and Chi Qingtai handed him the things: "Here you go." ”

Xie Shu glanced at it and was surprised in his heart: "What? ”

"It's nothing," Chi Qingtai said casually, skimming over the matter of the birthday present, "I see that you like to use Montblanc pens, take them and use them." ”

Xie Shuyun opened it and saw that every pen was engraved with his name. He instantly understood that this was a gift box that Chi Qingtai personally ordered for his birthday. I was afraid that he wouldn't accept it, so I made a calm and breezy tone.

Xie Shuyi's first reaction was that he couldn't accept it.

He obviously made up his mind to refuse Chi Qingtai, and now that he has accepted the gift, won't he give the other party hope?

But he soon realized that his name was engraved on the pens.

If he refuses to accept it, wouldn't it be even worse if Chi Qingtai looks at his name every day at work?

Xie Shuyun finally accepted the gift, and his mood was a little complicated: "Thank you, but you don't have to give me these." ”

If it weren't for the name engraved on the pen, he wouldn't have given it to him. Chi Qingtai rolled his eyes: "Don't pay me back." ”

Xie Shuyan looked serious: "That's not good." ”

Chi Qingtai: "......"

Then shut me up.
