Chapter 24: Opening the Bow

When Meng Weiqing and Bai Xiaojun woke up, Zhang Li had already prepared breakfast.Four dishes and one soup, the soup is chicken stewed with mushrooms.Meng Weiqing woke up all of a sudden, and stared at a table of food in a daze, "Auntie, where did you buy the chicken? The supermarket is not open so early."

Bai Xiaojun looked accustomed to it, and sat down at the table wiping his eyelids, "My mother loves to go to the morning market, so she must be going again."

"Wash your hands!" Zhang Li slapped her son.

The food was very delicious. Meng Weiqing ate three bowls in one go. If he hadn't looked at the pot to the bottom and feared that others would not eat enough, he would have another bowl.

After dinner, Meng Weiqing said he was going to the company and left.Bai Xinggang and Zhang Li went to see Uncle Zhao and left too.Daddy had already finished walking soybeans early in the morning. It was estimated that the walking time was too long, and he was too tired. He didn't ride Bai Xiaojun's legs all morning. Now he was full and was sleeping in the nest.

Bai Xiaojun flipped through his phone for a while, hesitated, found out the two scripts he had received before and began to read them.

Meng Weiqing didn't see Meng Weike when he arrived at the company, but Meng Weijia was there.

"You haven't returned to China yet?" Meng Weiqing stood in the middle of the office, inspecting every detail of the room like a CT scan, and calculated what Meng Weike had moved in the past month of domineering.

Meng Weijia sat on the boss's chair with her arms folded, "Are you issuing an order to evict the guest? I'm here right now. What country are you going back to? Which country are you going back to?"

"Have you changed your nationality long ago? You are going abroad now." Meng Weiqing walked to one of the shelves of the locker and opened the door.

Meng Weijia bit her lower lip, and couldn't think of a rebuttal for a while, "What are you reading? Can you tell me a few words?"

Meng Weiqing took out a black opaque document bag from the cabinet, carried it in her hand and walked up to Meng Weijia, "Do you know why I don't like you meddling with me and Meng Weike?"

"why?"

"Because you, like Mom, are always making love."

"That's because...you are brothers, we are a family."

"Hmph, brother? That can't be wishful thinking on my part, can it? Do you know what Meng Weike has done in the past two years since he came back? Do you know why Dad allocated our shares in this way? Did I say anything?"

Meng Weijia looked dazed. In the past few years, she was indeed busy taking care of the children at her own home in Provence, and rarely asked about her mother's affairs.

Bai Xiaojun had just read two pages when a call came, and it was Meng Weike.Bai Xiaojun stared at the number and thought about it for a few seconds, and finally thought that he could hide from the first day of the junior high school but not the fifteenth, so he picked it up as soon as he gritted his teeth.

"Hello."

"Hello. Are you back in Beijing?"

"Well, I'm back."

"Do you have time? Let's meet."

Bai Xiaojun stared at the bandage on his foot, "It seems inconvenient now."

"Are you injured? My car is just downstairs from your house. Is it convenient for you to go downstairs by yourself? If not, I can go up to pick you up."

Bai Xiaojun squeezed the space between his eyebrows, "Okay, wait for me for 5 minutes. I'll go down now."

Meng Weiqing handed the document bag to Meng Weijia, "You can see for yourself."

Inside the file bag were a stack of photos and two unsigned blank contracts.The protagonist of the photo is Meng Weike, and it is a photo of him meeting, eating, drinking tea, and shaking hands with different people.Several faces among those people were familiar to Meng Weijia, so she took a closer look and found that at least two of them were people she could confirm had been convicted and sentenced, and they were all economic crimes.The contract is about the cooperation terms of a project. Meng Weijia also has some impressions of this project. It was taken over by two other big companies before, but it was soon stopped due to some illegal operations.Both companies lost a lot, and one almost went bankrupt.

"If I hadn't stopped me at the time, and my dad wiped his ass afterwards, you would have to go to prison to see your precious brother now. What happened? How did he do it? Blame dad for leaving it to him I have less shares, and I want to kill me by biting back." Meng Weiqing tapped his fingers on the table twice, "Do you know how much the company's stock price has fallen in more than a month since I was arrested and acquitted? How much did he hurt? people?"

Meng Weijia looked up in surprise, "Did you ask someone to take these photos?"

"Meng Weike also thought it was me, but it was actually Dad. But Dad said before he died that he didn't want him to know about it."

"You just put these things in the office like this? Why have you seen them during your absence?"

"It's just for him to see. How about I win this lawsuit? Does he really think I can't do anything about him?"

Meng Weijia flipped through the photos, "I guess you have more than these things in your hand?"

Meng Weiqing didn't comment.

Meng Weijia raised his eyes, "Is it about me?"

Meng Weiqing frowned, "Sister, what are you kidding?"

Meng Weijia smiled, "I'll just ask casually."

"Don't ask such questions." Meng Weiqing put away the photos and the contract again, "Since you are back and you don't plan to leave immediately, then Mom will have Sister Lao to accompany you. Once Dad leaves, Meng Because I won’t be reconciled to losing this first battle. Now it seems that it’s useless for me to hide, if he doesn’t plan to just let it go, then I can only fight.”

Meng Weijia stood up, "I still think you should have a good talk with Wei Ke. After all..."

"what?"

"As far as I know, you can't beat him."

Meng Weiqing smiled, "You don't like me so much?"

Meng Weijia went around the table and walked to his younger brother, "You will understand when you really reach that point."

Meng Weijia left. Meng Weiqing looked at the closed door behind her, thought for a while, then turned around and picked up the phone on the desk, dialed the secretary's line, "Notify the managers of all departments, and have a meeting at one o'clock in the afternoon."

Bai Xiaojun stood on the side of the road and looked around for a while, when a very low-key black Audi slowly stopped beside him.The car window was lowered by a third, and half of a face wearing sunglasses was exposed through the gap, "Hello, I'm Meng Weike."

Bai Xiaojun opened the door and got in the car directly.As the car drove forward, Meng Weike took off his glasses and stared at the front, "You look better in person than those commercial videos. No wonder you look fat on camera. You are so thin, and you look just right in the photos."

Bai Xiaojun glanced at Meng Weike, "You don't look like your brother at all."

"Just call me ugly."

"Ugly is not ugly, but it's not as good as Meng Weiqing's... looks or something, especially men, there is nothing comparable if you don't mix in the entertainment industry. You are very good like this."

Bai Xiaojun spoke from his heart.In fact, Meng Weike has a good appearance, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a nose that is not too low, a moderately sized mouth, and a well-rounded chin.The disadvantage is that the cheekbones are lower, which makes the whole face look not three-dimensional.The neck shrinks a bit, which should be caused by bad posture since childhood.It's a bit provocative, not very serious, but it doesn't feel calm enough.All in all, it seems to be pleasing to the eye, and it feels more approachable and easy to talk to.Unlike Meng Weiqing, who is too outstanding in appearance, it will make people feel repelled thousands of miles away.The most important thing is that Meng Weike's voice is very nice, neither high nor low and very soft, and his speaking speed is also slow. I feel that he is especially suitable as the host of night radio programs.Meng Weiqing's voice was too low, and his tone was straight, too fast to hear what he was muttering.But Bai Xiaojun knew that the feeling Meng Weike gave him was probably false.

Meng Weike directly drove the car to a teahouse that he often went to.Bai Xiaojun leaned on a crutch and couldn't move very easily, so he didn't refuse when Meng Weike helped him get out of the car and climb up the tatami mats in the tea room.

While waiting for tea, Bai Xiaojun asked Meng Weike how he knew his phone number.

Meng Weike said lightly, "I have many ways to know your phone number. Did Meng Weiqing give your phone number to the driver of the company over there when he was in Shenzhen? After all, he is the driver of our company. Who do I want from him? He will give me the phone number. Then, in fact, you and my brother left Beijing, and I got in touch with your manager Xu Jing. After talking for more than ten minutes, she didn't know who I was. Hearing the voice, I felt very excited Yes. But I think that woman is a bit stupid, so she just gave me all your information, and there will naturally be your phone number in it. Also, the producer of the movie you just finished shooting is my friend."

"Your friend?!" Bai Xiaojun couldn't bear it anymore, "You said Liu Xuan is your friend?"

"Yeah. So these days when you were in Shenzhen, I knew exactly how many times my brother went to the hospital, how many scenes you filmed, how many times you hurt your feet. Do you think if I ask him for your phone number, I won't be able to get it ? The above three answers, you can choose one you like to believe."

Bai Xiaojun no longer cared about how Meng Weike knew his phone number.He stared in disbelief and gritted his teeth, "How could it be such a coincidence?"

Meng Weike held back a smile, his shoulders trembling slightly, "This is the way this world is, money, resources, and contacts are always held in the hands of the same group of people. You have lived to this age, and you are on this trip again." After wading in muddy water for many years, you should understand this truth."

Under the table, Bai Xiaojun's two hands were already tightly clenched, until his knuckles turned white.He lowered his eyes, "Tell me, what exactly are you looking for?"

At this time, the tea was ready, and it was brought into the room by a girl in Hanfu and placed on the table next to it.The girl sat down and started tossing teapots, cups and various utensils.

Meng Weike turned his body a little bit, "Come on, relax, let's enjoy the beautiful tea ceremony first."
