Chapter 1294 Facing pressure
Xu Ying reminded her to drink tea again, and Mei Ruxue picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea as if she had just woken up from a dream.
Xu Yingdao: “Is the new job very stressful?”
Mei Ruxue smiled calmly and said: "There will be an adaptation stage. In fact, everyone living in this society will face pressure. It's just a matter of their ability to withstand pressure."
Xu Ying nodded.
Mei Ruxue said: "How is your business there?"
Xu Yingdao: "Closure business for rectification."
Mei Ruxue was startled when she heard this, and then thought that she had eaten at Xu Ying's Japanese restaurant the night Wang Jiancheng had the accident. Could her closure of business for rectification be related to this matter?
Xu Ying seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and said softly: "I asked for it. Something happened to Mr. Xiao Wang after having dinner in our store that night. Although it was found out that it was not our responsibility, I also felt a lot. If you are under pressure, just give yourself a long vacation to relieve the pressure.”
Mei Ruxue said: "That's fine."
Xu Ying said: "This is the advantage of working for yourself. You can take a vacation when you want. Those of you who work within the system cannot do whatever you want like me."
Mei Ruxue sighed softly because of her words.
Xu Ying said: "Have you visited Mr. Wang recently? How is he doing?"
Mei Ruxue said: "It's okay, I'm recovering."
Xu Ying nodded and said: "I also want to visit, but I'm afraid of the inconvenience. I think it's better not to go and get into trouble. Because of this matter, the police investigated all the employees in our store. Even the people I spoke to on the phone that night found out.”
Mei Ruxue said: "The work requires it, but they can't help it."
Xu Ying said: "Isn't what happened to Mr. Xiao Wang an accident?"
Mei Ruxue said: "I don't know. No one dares to make any conclusions until the official results of the police investigation are released."
Xu Ying filled the cup of tea for Mei Ruxue and said softly: "Chunliang came to the store for dinner two days ago, and he mentioned you specifically. He said he would cooperate with you to hold an investment conference."
Mei Ruxue frowned slightly: "That matter failed to pass at the meeting."
Xu Ying said oh, her expression looking a little regretful.
Mei Ruxue discovered that everything had changed after returning to Dongzhou. The places she passed and the people she met left traces of Xu Chunliang everywhere. It was difficult for her to avoid talking about Xu Chunliang. She and Xu Yingting had been able to talk well in the past. , but everything seems so embarrassing today.
Xu Ying said: "I heard that Miss Ye Qingya is also in Dongzhou. I will organize a get-together for us."
Mei Ruxue said: "We'll see when the time comes. I don't dare to promise easily now. After all, I'm too busy with work. Wouldn't it be even worse if I promise but can't do it?"
Xu Ying nodded: "Understood." Mei Ruxue said this without even asking for time. The meaning was very obvious. She didn't want to get together at all, so why should Xu Ying force it.
Xu Yingdao: “I find that many times people don’t care about the truth.”
Mei Ruxue felt that her words were a bit abrupt and glanced at her.
Xu Ying said: "I came from my feelings."
Mei Ruxue said: "Most people would rather believe in their own subjective judgment, and their subconscious will block out the parts they are not interested in or don't want to hear."
Xu Ying said: "Take Mr. Xiao Wang's case as an example. Because he had eaten in my store on the day of the accident, the police investigated all relevant personnel. To tell you the truth, Zhao Feiyang is still listed as a suspect by them. ”
Mei Ruxue said in her heart that she had not mentioned this topic just now. The difference between the two times was that she mentioned Zhao Feiyang: "Zhao Feiyang? He went too?"
Xu Ying shook her head: "Although he didn't go that night, he called me and he became a suspect inexplicably. The police specifically asked him to find out the situation."
Mei Ruxue said: "As long as you explain the situation clearly, the police will not wrongly accuse any good person." The subtext is that the police will not let any bad person go.
Xu Ying sighed and said: "It's not that easy to make it clear. He happened to give me a call that night. When he facilitated Jishi Medical's acquisition of Changxing, Mr. Xiao Wang happened to be one of the shareholders of Jishi Medical."
Mei Ruxue's heart sank. Xu Ying's mention of Jishi Medical's acquisition of Changxing was definitely not unintentional. She knew very well that the person who founded Jishi Medical Investment Co., Ltd. was her eldest brother Qiao Rulong, and the major shareholder was Qi Shuang, and Pan Tianhua was also involved.
Because Qi Shuang's mother and son were kidnapped, the eldest brother had to transfer Jishi Medical. Speaking of which, the eldest brother's original acquisition was to repay Zhao Feiyang's life-saving grace. In this matter, the eldest brother and Qi Shuang escaped unscathed. Equator Capital In the end, he got a bargain. Although Wang Jiancheng did not transfer the shares, looking back now, he did not suffer any loss on his investment.
The most disappointed person in that acquisition should be Zhao Feiyang. If the Jishi Medical acquisition led by his eldest brother succeeds, Zhao Feiyang will definitely take charge of Changxing Hospital. But now the backstage boss has become Equator Capital, with Wang Jiancheng as a shareholder and Zhao Feiyang. Conflicts are possible, so it is not unreasonable for the police to suspect Zhao Feiyang.
Xu Ying nodded and said, "That's right. Is Mr. Qiao okay?"
Mei Ruxue heard something different. Did Xu Ying think that Wang Jiancheng's case was related to her eldest brother? The eldest brother has no conflicts with Wang Jiancheng. On the contrary, he has always taken good care of him. But since the police can suspect Zhao Feiyang, they may also suspect his eldest brother. Thinking of the Wang family's recent pressure on him, does Wang Zhengdao also suspect that his son's matter is related to his eldest brother?
Mei Ruxue became more and more upset: "He is very good. You also know that after the car accident, his career ambitions were no longer so serious. He basically let go of everything he could." Xu Ying said: "It doesn't matter if you let go. In fact, people have a lifetime. Just be safe." She smiled sheepishly after saying, "Everyone has different ideas. Don't make fun of me for being short-sighted."
Mei Ruxue said: "How could it be? I also like a plain life, but it's a pity that some seemingly simple things are not easy to do."
Xu Ying looked at Mei Ruxue who was deep in thought and whispered: "Sister, if you have more words, is it possible for you and Xu Chunliang?"
Mei Ruxue shook her head.
Xu Ying sighed and said: "I always think you two are a good match. It's really a pity to separate like this."
Mei Ruxue said: "There are some results that none of us want to see, but no one can change it. It may not be too long before we all have our own families."
Xu Ying looked at Mei Ruxue with some surprise. With Xu Chunliang's rebellious temperament, he shouldn't get married so early, but that's not necessarily the case with Mei Ruxue. Could it be that she was talking about herself?
Xu Ying suddenly remembered the rumors that had recently been stirred up by the outside world. No wonder she felt that Mei Ruxue was not in a good condition when she saw her today. She must be deeply troubled.
Xu Ying picked up the teapot and prepared to pour more tea for Mei Ruxue. Mei Ruxue said: "No, I should go."
Xu Ying said: "Let's wait until the snow subsides before leaving."
Mei Ruxue shook her head: "I like the feeling of walking in the snow, Sister Xu, thank you for inviting me to tea."
Mei Ruxue stood up and left. Xu Ying chased her outside the door and gave her an umbrella. Mei Ruxue waved her hand and walked quickly into the flying snow.
At this moment, she urgently needs a world of her own to think quietly. The flying snow effectively isolates her from the world. Passers-by are either admiring the snow scenery or rushing on their way, and few people pay attention to her.
Mei Ruxue felt a little lonely despite her joy. She didn't know if this was the life she wanted. She couldn't tell the direction. She stood at the crossroads and didn't know where to go.
Xu Chunliang and Ye Qingya climbed to the Zhushan Temple in the wind and snow. It was Laba today, and many people came here to drink porridge.
Ye Qingya went to the temple to pray first, and Xu Chunliang was waiting for her in the yard. The snow did not dampen the enthusiasm of the believers. Unexpectedly, from the corner of her eye, she saw an old monk wearing gray robes walking towards the Luohan Hall.
Xu Chunliang recognized that the old monk was Yuan Rong at a glance, and did not expect him to appear here.
Xu Chunliang saw Yuan Rong, but Yuan Rong did not see him. After all, there were too many good men and women who came to pray for blessings, so Xu Chunliang quietly followed Yuan Rong.
Seeing Yuan Rong enter the small room next to Luohan Hall, he immediately closed the door after entering.
Xu Chunliang came to the door and listened.
Huanrong closed the door. Inside, a woman in black was sitting cross-legged facing the Buddhist altar, with her hands clasped together and silently chanting sutras.
Yuanrong came to the futon next to her and sat cross-legged. The man stopped chanting and whispered: "How is the situation?"
Yuanrong sighed and said: "I contacted Zhai Pingqing several times, but he always made excuses to avoid seeing me."
“I told you earlier?”
“I don’t know, but he was here two days ago. He told me that he was too busy with business and couldn’t spare the time to meet with me.”
The woman in black gritted her teeth and said, "This person is not worthy of any strategy."
Yuanrong said: "Why do you say that?"
The woman in black snorted coldly: "Can't you see clearly that he transferred the business to Xiahou Mulan. The two of them should have reached an agreement in private. He has changed his camp and will definitely support that woman."
Yuanrong sighed and said: "It seems that there is no way to stop Xiahou Mulan from ascending to the throne. My nephew died in Xiahou Zun's hands for no apparent reason."
The woman in black asked: "Why didn't he show up for so long? Has something happened?"
Xu Chunliang could hear clearly outside with his extraordinary hearing. This woman's voice sounded familiar to him. He thought of a person, but he was not sure yet. He should be Xia Houzun in her mouth.
Yuanrong said: "I saw him with my own eyes in the capital, and he even took action to abolish my martial arts. I wonder what happened to him in seclusion these years?"
“Hey, I feel a little strange too. I can’t contact him at all.”
The two talked for a while, and the woman stood up. Xu Chunliang guessed that the woman was leaving, so he entered the Arhat Hall next to her before the door opened.
Not long after, the woman in black left the room and passed by the entrance of Luohan Hall. Xu Chunliang could see clearly that the woman was indeed Liang Wenjing, the chairman of Enheng Pharmaceutical.
