Luo Qi found out that the boss and Chu Lin had a blind date today, and both parties were reluctant. From sitting down to eating, the two had no communication during the whole process.
Fortunately, the two elders were well-measured and did not deliberately match up, so the atmosphere of the meal was not awkward.
Xiao Jiang and Li Rui are both social cows, and gradually the atmosphere on the table became more relaxed.
All of Chu Lin's attention was on Luo Qi, she looked at Luo Qi from time to time, looked at another person through Luo Qi's eyebrows, and asked knowingly: "Luo Qi, are you from Suzhou City?"
Lao Chu patted his daughter, "Playing the piano is stupid? Why do you call Xiao Luo by name, Xiao Luo is a few months older than you."
Luo Qi smiled, "It doesn't matter, they are all of the same age, and calling by name is the most kind." She returned to Chulin, "Yes, I live in the old city."
Chu Lin smiled at her and said in Sioux City dialect, "Your Sioux City dialect is very nice. My favorite city is Sioux City."
Her Sioux City dialect was so authentic that everyone was amazed, including Lao Chu, who never knew that his daughter could speak various dialects.
The first stop of her daughter's tour was in Sioux City. Was it related to her ex-boyfriend?
Li Rui asked: "Speaking so standardly, did you invite a teacher of Suzhou dialect to teach you?"
Chu Lin said, "No. My ex-boyfriend taught me."
“……”
Lao Chu almost vomited blood from anger.
Just say that she will act like a demon tonight and smash the scene, so it turns out that the pit is waiting here.
At the end of the dinner, Chu Lin didn't ask for Jiang Shenghe's contact information, but only left Luo Qi's WeChat, which she called convenient for consulting Suzhou dialect.
Lao Chu sighed, and went downstairs and said to Liang Zhen: "You see, they deliberately punished us. Fortunately, her mother didn't come, so I stopped her if she wanted to come. If she really wants to come, she can't be sent to the hospital directly because of her high blood pressure." Hospital rescue."
Liang Zhen thought in his heart, it's a good thing her family is not here, otherwise, seeing Jiang Shenghe messing up the scene, he would directly overturn the table.
She had been paying attention to her younger son's actions all night, he could bear it, he didn't glance at Luo Qi, and didn't use Luo Qi as a shield in public.
It seems that he brought Luo Qi here just to introduce her.
When they got downstairs, before their son got into the car, Liang Zhen called him and pulled him aside for questioning.
She realized later that Luo Qi and her boyfriend had been together for many years, and they were about to get married, but they ended up having troubles, which seemed absurd.
"Mom either doubts your character, or..."
"What is it?"
"...It was the time when Luo Qi broke up with her boyfriend..." Liang Zhen explained again and again: "It's not that Mom suspects that you broke them up."
"What is the difference between you and doubt?"
Jiang Shenghe felt that there was no need to explain, "You can persuade my dad when you have time, let him accept the reality as soon as possible."
Liang Zhen has a headache. She is now in a dilemma, with her son on one side and her husband on the other.
"Your aunt's hospitalization this time is actually not that serious. Half of it is just pretending, isn't it?"
"yes."
"..."
What a nonsense.
On the way back to the hotel, Luo Qi was still thinking about why Chu Lin wanted her WeChat.
And during the meal, Chu Lin was the warmest to her.
"Isn't it easy to learn Sucheng dialect?" The boss suddenly said.
Difficulty and simplicity are different for everyone.
Luo Qi turned around and replied: "It's difficult for Chairman Jiang to say."
"My aunt taught you?"
"Well, I learned a few words." But after a few days, I completely forgot, and only said goodbye.
Luo Qi noticed that it was the first time that the boss called Jiang Yueru Aunt in front of her instead of Jiang Dong.
Jiang Shenghe looked at her and asked, "How do you say 'I have been secretly in love with you for six years and eight months' in Suzhou dialect?"
Luo Qi's first reaction, the secret love that the boss said should be his own emotional experience.
Otherwise, who would say such a specific time.
She hurriedly said it in Suzhou dialect.
Jiang Shenghe couldn't remember, "You send me the voice."
Luo Qi was wondering if the boss planned to confess his love to the person he liked in Suzhou dialect one day. And that person couldn't understand the Sioux City dialect.
She spoke at a moderate speed and sent the sentence to the boss.
I was worried that the boss would not be able to learn the pronunciation, so I found a homophonic word, typed this sentence and sent it to him.
Jiang Shenghe asked her again: "Send me another six years and nine months to seven years and eight months in dialect."
Rocky: "..."
It turned out that the boss was not sure which month he would confess his love, so he had to prepare for a year first.
She uttered another twelve sentences in dialect.
A driver glances in the rearview mirror while waiting for a traffic light.
One dares to ask.
One should be handled as a major event.
Back in the hotel room, Rocky received a call from her cousin.
Luo Yu cried and begged for forgiveness on the phone, her little cucumber seedling died.
"Sister, forgive me, you must forgive me. Maybe I watered too much, anyway, it's a wrong operation, and the roots are rotten."
Both the cousin's love and the little cucumber seedlings died in her hands.
"It's okay, the time is wrong." Luo Qi comforted her cousin, "I will plant it next spring."
Luo Yu disposed of the plastic shed on the balcony and vowed to grow cucumbers for her cousin.
For this reason, she also paid attention to relevant bloggers to learn how to carefully cultivate small cucumber seedlings.
At the end of April of the following year, she bought cucumber seeds and planted them according to the instructions.
My cousin was right. The last batch of small cucumbers failed to bloom and bear fruit because they were planted at the wrong time. This year’s newly planted cucumbers sprouted after a few days and grew well.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, so you don't have to worry about the temperature of the balcony is not enough.
In June, cucumber vines climbed onto the cucumber stand she and her cousin built together.
Today is a day off, Luo Yu came here by car early in the morning.
She hadn't been here for three days, and the cucumbers actually bloomed. They were small yellow flowers. She counted them, and there were more than a dozen small melon stalks in total.
The veranda is lush with greenery.
"Sister, hurry up, take two pictures of me, take better pictures, and capture the atmosphere of me in the farmyard."
She gave her cell phone to her cousin.
Luo Qi didn't have to go to work today either, she just woke up and was still wearing pajamas.
She adjusted the angle, but she couldn't get the blockbuster effect Luo Yu wanted, "I'll just give you a P picture."
"How can it be the same? This is our painstaking effort." Luo Yu gently picked up a cucumber leaf and made an exaggerated pose, "I'm not tired, just take pictures."
"Sister, when are you free to go out for dinner?"
"What's your idea?"
"What can I do?"
Inexplicably lost confidence.
Her father, Party A, had hinted for the fifth time after the Spring Festival that he would have a meal together when he was free, and asked her when she would be free.
It's been nine months since my cousin broke up, so I should consider a new life.
"Sister, our new cucumbers are blooming. Summer is just right for love." She was wrong, but my cousin should understand what she meant.
Luo Qi still said the same thing: "I just want to make money now."
Occasionally, when Pei Shixiao's name came across the financial news, she was almost calm.
Emotions involve too much energy, even if the debts are paid off one day, she doesn't think about a new relationship. It's good to be alone, with no worries, no expectations and no disappointments.
The relationship with my parents is still lukewarm.
She didn't go home during the Spring Festival. The Yuanwei Group had a project abroad that required Jiang Shenghe to coordinate the relevant procedures in the past. The secretary was the only one who was free during the holidays, so she was arranged to go on a business trip.
I stayed for three weeks, and came back after the Lantern Festival.
She also met Jiang Yueru in Manhattan, and she also had New Year's Eve dinner at Jiang Yueru's during the Spring Festival.
Jiang Yueru prepared three red envelopes, one of which was hers.
The new year is here.
Before I knew it, it was June of the year again, and the rainy season was ushering in Sioux City. The events of last year were still vivid in my memory, as if it was yesterday.
Luo Qi washed up briefly, ate the breakfast prepared by her cousin, and began to pack her luggage.
Luo Yu was lying on the sofa editing photos, glanced at the box, "Going on a business trip?"
"Yes. Go to Sioux City."
"Why did you go to Sioux City again? Your Yuanwei project in Sioux City is not over yet?"
"It's almost there. This time, I'm participating in a summit forum." The AI Medical Summit Forum was held in Sioux City. Jiang Shenghe was invited to participate, and she accompanied her.
The forum lasts for two days.
On Monday afternoon, she and her boss took the high-speed train to Sioux City again.
The two major competitors of Yuanwei Medical, Dongbo Medical and Ruipu Medical, Pei Shixiao did not sell the shares of Dongbo in the end, and the acquisition failed to proceed.
Yuanwei successfully acquired Ruipu Medical, and the next step is the running-in between Yuanwei and Ruipu Medical, from the management team to the operating philosophy.
I don't know who the company plans to send over to sit in charge.
She is actually very excited, the work is challenging, and the most important thing is that the salary is higher than her current one.
If she continues to stay in the president's office, she will not be able to pay more than 10 million yuan to her uncle's house within three years.
Jiang Shenghe glanced at the neighbor, Luo Qi looked out of the window and was distracted, not knowing what to think again.
The phone on the table vibrated, and he checked it. A few minutes ago, he asked Qin Moling if he was free this Friday.
Qin Moling replied: [Should not be free. I'm going to choose a wedding photo these days. 】
Jiang Shenghe: "..."
You don’t need to pick a Friday night to choose a wedding photo, and even if you choose, you don’t need to choose a few days in a row.
I just wanted to show off my wedding photos.
Qin Moling was married, and had a flash marriage with the daughter of their primary school teacher's family. For the first blind date, Jian Hang released Qin Moling's pigeons, and the family arranged a second blind date for them.
After the two met, they quickly obtained the certificate, and the wedding has not yet been held.
Qin Moling asked: [What are you doing on Friday? 】
Jiang Shenghe: [I'll talk about it when I go back, I'm on a business trip in Sucheng for the past two days. 】
At nine o'clock in the morning the next day, the summit forum opened.
Luo Qi accompanied Jiang Shenghe to the venue ten minutes earlier, turned her face inadvertently, and was slightly taken aback when she saw the person in the front right, and Pei Shixiao unexpectedly came too.
Ever since he said he would not come to her downstairs in the Yuanwei Building last year, he never bothered her again.
On New Year's Eve, she received a message from an unfamiliar number, with only one sentence: Luo Qi, happy new year, everything goes well.
She didn't reply, it should be him.
Pei Shixiao guessed that she might come to the summit forum, so he specially pushed other arrangements to come here today. He has already participated in the specific operation of Dongbo Medical, so it is reasonable to come here, and it is not considered to disturb her.
Mrs. Pei patted her son: "It's almost done."
Pei Shixiao reluctantly looked away, "She probably doesn't hate me as much now as before."
"Then what?"
"I'll chase her again."
Mrs. Pei doesn't care about him, she has been doing what she can do for more than half a year, no matter whether she can get back together in the end, she has done her best.
In October, the board of directors will be reelected. She has been looking forward to this day for twenty years.
"Did Cui Peng contact you?"
Pei Shixiao paused before saying, "No. I happened to meet you at the restaurant last week."
Mrs. Pei snorted coldly, "That's not a coincidence. I thought Shanghai was just one street, and you could meet him every time you eat." Cui Peng didn't contact him before because he knew he was abroad and didn't come back often, so it was useless to contact him. .
It's different now, the foreign project is on the right track, he doesn't need to worry about it, just leave it to other people, and he will spend most of his time in China in the future.
This woman is not giving up yet.
She sent a message to her secretary: [Contact Luo Yu, she should have a video of Cui Peng being raped, ask her to buy one, no need to buy out. 】
During the break of the meeting, Pei Shixiao turned to look at Luo Qi while talking to others, but he didn't see Luo Qi, and met Jiang Shenghe's cold eyes.
They all retracted lightly.
The morning meeting ended at 11:30, Pei Shixiao had no time to socialize with acquaintances, so he handed it over to his mother, and he hurried out of the venue to find Luo Qi.
At the back door exit, Pei Shixiao saw her.
Luo Qi was waiting for Jiang Shenghe, Jiang Shenghe exchanged a few words with He Wancheng, she stood in the distance waiting for the boss.
"Assistant Luo." Pei Shixiao called her.
There are people coming and going around, so he doesn't attract too much attention by calling him that.
Luo Qi didn't respond, and looked at him expressionlessly.
He chased her out to look for her, and there was only a little ripple in her, not even a fluctuation, and he quickly returned to calm. She no longer needs to work hard to calm herself down and pretend she doesn't care when she sees him like when she just broke up.
Pei Shixiao approached and said in a low voice, "Long time no see."
"Luo Qi, let's go." A strong voice came in.
"Alright Mr. Jiang." Luo Qi ran towards Jiang Shenghe.
Jiang Shenghe looked cold and gave her the glasses.
Luo Qi took it naturally, and the two walked out side by side.
Looking at their backs, Pei Shixiao always felt that something was wrong. Last year, his two projects in China were basically a certainty, but they failed at the last juncture.
Being intercepted can happen in every line of work, so it's not worth making a fuss about. He also intercepted other people's projects.
The luck is not too bad. Although the domestic projects are yellow, but the projects I was interested in overseas before have the following, and we have reached a happy cooperation.
Immediately afterwards, Luo Zhiqiu's company suddenly got financing, and Luo Qi happened to be transferred to Jiang Shenghe's side.
Jiang Shenghe didn't notice Dongbo Medical Technology at first, but suddenly wanted to acquire it.
It all happened last October, the first month since he and Rocky had broken up. Everything is normal, but put together, it is too coincidental.
At the beginning of this year, he asked an acquaintance that it was Qin Moling who intercepted his project, and Qin Moling was Jiang Shenghe's childhood friend.
Just now, Jiang Shenghe rescued Luo Qi, the way he looked at Luo Qi was definitely not the way a superior would look at a subordinate, it was full of a man's possessiveness.
At this point, Pei Shixiao couldn't deceive himself, so he simply asked, "Mr. Jiang, please wait."
Luo Qi didn't want to bother the boss, this was her own private matter after all, "President Jiang, I'll go down and settle it myself."
"He's looking for me, you sit down." Jiang Shenghe signaled the driver, "Wait for me in front." He closed the car door.
The driver drove the car away and drove to a convenient parking place in front.
Pei Shixiao approached and reported his family name, "Mr. Jiang, I'm Pei Shixiao."
Jiang Shenghe was not surprised at all, "It's a pleasure to meet you. What's the matter?"
Pei Shixiao went straight to the point: "In October last year, two of our company's domestic projects fell through. I heard that it was Qin Moling who asked someone to cut off my projects. I was busy with foreign projects. There were too many pitfalls and I didn't make any money at all. He must have intervened."
Jiang Shenghe: "It's not him. It's me."
Unexpectedly, he would admit it so readily. Pei Shixiao had never felt a sense of crisis. He ruled out the possibility: "Did Jiang mean it? She wants to vent her anger for Luo Qi."
Jiang Shenghe asked instead: "Why does it have to be my aunt's idea, and why can't I do it willingly for Luo Qi?"
