basketball behind the spotlight

Chapter 44

But Lu Ziqiu did not give up, he went to Xia Hongfei's office again.

I hope Xia Hongfei can think of a way so that he and Bai Yufei can sit down and talk peacefully.

But Xia Hongfei was not in the office, and the secretary told him that Xia Hongfei had gone on a business trip early in the morning, and he would not be back until two days at the earliest.

Lu Ziqiu frowned, took out his mobile phone and called him, the voice mail came.

This can't help but make him dumbfounded, his daughter has run away from home, yet he still has the mind to go on a business trip.

Is business really more important than daughter?

He really couldn't figure out what was going on in the minds of these big bosses.

But the idea was only a change, and something was not quite right.

So he asked the secretary: "Do you know where the chairman went on a business trip?"

The secretary shook his head and did not say: "The chairman has said it, and no one is allowed to say it."

Lu Ziqiu's heart skipped a beat for no reason, "I have a very, very important deal to discuss with him."

"Then you call him. This is the chairman's order, and I dare not disobey it."

Lu Ziqiu frowned, "Can't even I be accommodating?"

The secretary smiled wryly and shook his head, "Mr. Lu, please don't make things difficult for me."

Lu Ziqiu sighed, "All right, thank you."

The secretary smiled gratefully, "Why don't you take a break and I'll pour you a cup of tea."

"No need, the team still has very important matters, I must rush back immediately, and I will contact the chairman later."

The secretary nodded and sent him to the parking lot before returning.

As soon as I got in the car, I suddenly received a call from Yu Qin, saying that someone was coming to interview the videographer, and asked him if he wanted to go for the interview in person.

Lu Ziqiu shook his head and said, "No need, you and the HR department will be responsible for this matter. Just prepare the interview report and bring it to my office later."

Yu Qin worried: "But we don't know anything about video recording."

"It's okay, you guys should do a preliminary understanding first, then do a background check, and if you think it's suitable, invite the other party to the arena to try it out."

Having said all this, Yu Qin knew that it would be unreasonable not to show a little more confidence, so she agreed and promised to do a good job.

After hanging up the phone, the more Lu Ziqiu thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he gave up the idea of ​​going back to the arena, and instead drove straight to the club.

When she arrived at the office, Diana was teaching Xia Kexin about the transaction.

Seeing his sudden return, the two of them were a little surprised. Xia Kexin asked, "Didn't you say that the team has a lot of work these two days, so why did you suddenly have time to come back?"

"Let's talk about it later." Lu Ziqiu casually replied, then turned to look at Diana, "Is the transaction confirmed?"

Diana shook her head and said, "Not yet, I guess it will be before I get off work in the afternoon."

"Then what are you doing now?"

"It's all right, I'm teaching Kexin how to operate the details of the transaction."

Lu Ziqiu pondered for a while, "Well, a videographer has come for an interview, and Yu Qin and the HR department are following up, so you should go and have a look."

"Okay." Diana stood up.

"I'll go with you too." Xia Kexin said hastily.

"You stay, I have something to tell you." Lu Ziqiu shook his head, held her back, and pointed to the sofa, "Go and sit down first."

Seeing that Lu Ziqiu had nothing else to say, Diana turned and left.

Lu Ziqiu closed the office door and walked back, sat down facing Xia Kexin, and looked at her seriously.

Xia Kexin's eyes wandered a little, "What do you want to tell me?"

"I went to see your mother just now."

Xia Kexin's heart skipped a beat, and she frowned and asked, "What are you going to do with her?"

"I felt that I had to have an open and honest conversation with her."

"What's there to talk about?" Xia Kexin lowered her eyes bitterly, "She is such an unreasonable person, you can only humiliate yourself if you go to her."

Lu Ziqiu said: "Then can you tell me, why are you arguing so fiercely?"

"It's because of the news, what else can it do?"

"Is it really just like that?" If it was just that, he didn't believe that Bai Yufei would let the secretary drive him away so disregarding his status.

Xia Kexin bit her lip and lowered her head when he watched.

Lu Ziqiu sighed, "Kexin, I regard you as a friend, I hope you don't lie to me, okay? If you can't make a thorough settlement with your mother, I'm afraid there will be troubles in the future. We are a newly formed team. Now I can't stand too much torment."

Xia Kexin fell silent and didn't speak for a long time.

Lu Ziqiu got up and made tea for her and himself, and waited patiently for her to speak.

After a while, Xia Kexin raised her head bitterly, "My mother thinks that I got too close to you, and she is worried, so we quarreled more and more fiercely."

The words were reserved, but Lu Ziqiu could hear the taste, "I understand."

Xia Kexin bit her lip and asked desolately, "Are you trying to drive me away?"

Lu Ziqiu said solemnly: "You worry too much, as long as we are innocent, we can have a clear conscience."

Xia Kexin hummed heavily.

But Lu Ziqiu just paused and asked again: "Why does your mother have such an idea? It is impossible for her not to know that the Internet is full of nonsense."

"Someone must be gossiping behind her back. She has soft ears and protects her weaknesses. She tends to listen to one side and believe one side."

These words contain too much information, "Do you suspect that it is Zhao Fenghui who is making irresponsible remarks behind your back?"

Xia Kexin nodded hesitantly.

"Is your father suspicious too?"

"Yes, it was my dad who reminded me, otherwise I wouldn't have thought of this."

"Does he know that you moved to live with me?"

"I know, it was he who suggested that I go to live with you for a while."

"He was on a business trip this morning, did you know that?"

"Business trip?" Xia Kexin's eyes widened, "Impossible, he rarely travels on business." As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and called Xia Hongfei. When a voicemail came, he couldn't help but frowned again.

Lu Ziqiu's face darkened, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "I don't know how your father's temper is, but I think you and your mother had better go to Kaicheng, I think he must have settled with Zhao Fenghui."

"No way?"

"I hope not, but I asked his secretary, and the secretary wouldn't say where he went."

When Xia Kexin heard this, she suddenly panicked, and hurriedly picked up her mobile phone and started booking tickets.

"Aren't you going to ask your mother to come with you?"

"No need to call, as long as she finds out that my dad is not in the company, she will definitely guess where he went." At this point, she stopped suddenly.

Lu Ziqiu thought she had figured it out, but saw that she suddenly put down the phone again, and the flustered expression on her face suddenly disappeared, so she couldn't help being very surprised, "I don't think you seem very worried?"

Xia Kexin looked up at him, "Did you forget what I told you when I was in the hotel?"

Lu Ziqiu was taken aback, "You told me a lot."

Xia Kexin knew that his mind was full of basketball, and it was embarrassing for him to recall, so she explained: "Don't look at my dad and Uncle Zhao fighting for most of their lives, in fact, their relationship is better than brothers, even if he really takes it Zhao Fenghui beat me hard, and Uncle Zhao wouldn't say anything."

It was only then that Lu Ziqiu remembered that she had indeed told him about Xia Hongfei and Zhao Yunchao back then, "That's right, I was worrying too much."
