.Chapter 7.

Ruan Jinwen took Shi Shaoqing to play for three full days. On the fourth day, he had an appointment with Zhengyang in the morning, so he assigned a driver to Shi Shaoqing. He let him decide where he wanted to go, which was enough of the friendship of the landlord. .

From the place where Ruan Jinwen lived to the Zhengyang Building, it was not close or far, but I had to pass through the International Trade Center, so the car couldn't drive fast.It was past nine o'clock when we arrived in Zhengyang, and the sky was still gray and blue.Looking at the sky, it is estimated that there will be a snowfall.

The first snow in Beijing this year is really exciting, just like Ruan Jinwen's mood for this meeting at the moment.

The meeting place was in the small conference room in the chairman's office of the Zhengyang Building. There were not many people present, but they were all the top management of the two companies.

Since Ruan Jinwen took over the Ruan family, he has replaced all the staff in the president's office.It's not that he doesn't trust the cronies left behind by Ruan Yuan, but that Ruan Yuan's way of dealing with life is somewhat different from his. If he wants to make achievements in a short period of time, the new team is undoubtedly the best choice.

This time is the time to open up the territory and attack the city. Anyone who raises objections or maintains traditional ideas will definitely become his hindrance. He can't care about any honest words at the moment. He firmly believes that he can charge forward with him is what he needs. people.

Because it is the home stadium, a director from Zhengyang presided over the meeting. He is responsible for the location selection of all experience stores, the overall design of the venue and the control of functional area division. He is the person who will actually deal with Ruan later.

Ruan Jinwen knew this early on, so he had arranged for his subordinates to have private communication with the director in advance, and he had done enough homework for this cooperation.

The meeting went smoothly, because the preparations were sufficient, and there were many commercial outlets that Zhengyang could choose from.In addition, in order to meet the needs of this large-scale experience hall in Zhengyang, Ruan also submitted the construction plan of various supporting facilities.Lin Zhengyang, the boss of Zhengyang, appreciates this efficiency very much, so he promised Ruan Jinwen that he would give him a choice and reply in the fastest time.

When the meeting was coming to an end, Lin Zhengyang's secretary came in to report twice. The first time was short, and he sighed next to Lin Zhengyang. Lin Zhengyang gave an instruction, and the secretary withdrew.When he came in again for the second time, the secretary was at a loss, and said a few words in Lin Zhengyang's ear, this time some intermittent voices came out.

Ruan Jinwen was close, and he heard the secretary whisper: "Mr. Yu said he was willing to wait, and he also said that if you are really busy today, he would like to make an appointment with you first. He also said that he would talk to you , you will be interested."

After the meeting, Ruan and his party stayed in Zhengyang Building and had a business lunch with several bigwigs in Zhengyang.Zhengyang's business meals are buffet-style. Assistant William left for a while and brought a message to Ruan Jinwen when he came back.

"I asked the secretary just now, and she said...the one who came to find Director Lin today is indeed the one from Yongmei."

Seeing that Ruan Jinwen was silent, he asked again, "Vincent, do you think we should inquire about the purpose of Mr. Yu's coming to Zhengyang?"

"You don't need to worry about this." Ruan Jinwen took care of him before he was seated, "This is Zhengyang after all, don't be too bold, I will settle this matter myself."

After leaving Zhengyang in the afternoon, Ruan Jinwen didn't ask the driver to drive back to Ruan's.After getting in the car, he called Jian Bai first. The phone rang for a long time but no one answered it. At that moment, Ruan Jinwen suddenly had some bad premonitions in his heart, and the unspeakable panic quickly spread from his left chest. , until the whole body.He kept guessing in his mind about problems that he didn't want to touch, and he was still reluctant to accept any results that he could imagine.

The assistant waited for a while, but didn't hear any instructions from him, so he couldn't help but turned to him and asked, "Vincent, where are we going back now?"

Ruan Jinwen sat in the back row, his eyes were empty, and he didn't make a sound.

The assistant asked again, and this time he responded, "Go to Panjiayuan."

The assistant looked puzzled, but still nodded and asked the driver to drive in the direction of Panjiayuan.

The heating in the compartment was fully turned on, but the long silence made the atmosphere in the confined space drop to freezing point.

At this time, snow slag began to fall outside the car window, hitting the glass with a sizzling sound.Another ten minutes later, a large swath of pure snowflakes intertwined and fell, sweeping the windshield of the car with the wind, dense and dazzling.

This is the first snow, the first snow of the year in Beijing. It was originally a sign of hope, but after half an hour, Ruan Jinwen was still expecting and fantasizing.

When the car arrived at Panjiayuan, it had to stop at the intersection because it couldn't enter the alley.Ruan Jinwen got out of the car and walked into the alley alone. He didn't let the assistant and the driver follow because it was between him and Jian Bai, and it was the only one for the two of them. It was difficult for others to talk, but he was also there. The subordinates couldn't get rid of those faces in front of them.

But when he arrived at Wuye's house, he didn't see anyone.

Fifth Master spoke in a subtle way, and he couldn't easily get the words out. He knew that he was Jian Bai's friend, and he didn't say anything more about Jian Bai being picked up by Yu Guang.

Ruan Jinwen couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't meet Jian Bai, so it would be impolite to keep it.After exchanging a few words with Master Wu, he left the courtyard.

The snow outside was falling even harder, and after a while, several flakes covered his eyelashes. He blinked hard and was about to dust off with his hands when the phone in his pocket rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was Jian Bai.Without thinking about it, he pressed the answer button directly, "Hello, BEN, where are you?"

The voice was urgent and dull, and it even sounded bitter.

"What's wrong? Why are you calling me?" Jian Bai asked him.

"I'm in Panjiayuan. The fifth master said you didn't live here. Where did you move?" Ruan Jinwen asked.

Jian Bai's voice on the phone froze for more than ten seconds, and then the same sentence as before: "Jin Wen, do you have anything to do with me?"

In the past, Jian Bai never hid words from Ruan Jinwen, but recently, Ruan Jinwen obviously felt that Jian Bai had changed a lot. He no longer spoke to himself unreservedly like before, and he no longer asked himself to help After dealing with some troublesome things, I will not take the initiative to find myself.

His mind suddenly turned fast, and those words rushed out, "Ben, don't tell me that you moved to Chaoyang and lived with Yu Guang."

Jian Bai didn't make a sound.

Ruan Jinwen's brain exploded, all his reactions and rationality were messed up.At this moment, he was afraid that this matter was true, but he didn't want it to become a fact, so he deceived himself and said, "You really didn't tell me?" "Ben, are you joking with me? Talk quickly, are you Didn't they move to a hotel? Is it a peninsula or where? You tell me."

Jian Bai was silent for a few seconds, then answered him on the other end of the phone, "Jin Wen, don't guess, I moved to the house in Chaoyang, and the matter between me and Yu Guang was voluntary, and he didn't lie to me. . Yu Guang is not what you think..."

Is this an admission?Ruan Jinwen didn't hear a word Jian Bai said about Yu Guang later, he just muttered there, and said to the person on the other end of the phone, "Yu Guang had a wife before, and they had a wife Child, he likes women, don't be stupid..."

On the whole, the person who falls in love first in a relationship, and who likes more than the other person will be the person who is so humble that he is buried in the earth. Others don't know, but with what he is doing now, Ruan Jinwen knows what kind of face he is at the moment. No more, he doesn't want any character either, his lover is about to be snatched away, he's so gentle and reserved, it's the most fucking serious thing to talk about his rival in love.

When did he hang up the phone, and what did he say before he hung up? I couldn't remember a word after that, only one sentence filled my mind, and that sentence was always rolling in his throat, but it was delayed. Unspoken, that sentence is, "BEN, I like you, for seven years, there has never been a single moment of change."

But... just can't tell.

In just a short while, the snow was much heavier than before, and the heads of the people standing in the alley were covered with white in a short time.The gray sky weighed down there, just like all depression and sadness weighed on Ruan Jinwen's shoulders and heart.Finally, he couldn't hold back the coolness in the air anymore, and it directly soaked into his skin through his clothes, and penetrated into his limbs and bones.

After returning home that night, Ruan Jinwen fell ill.

It might be because he had been standing in the snow for a long time, or it might be because his heart was overwhelmed. He had a severe fever since ten o'clock in the evening.

The aunt at home brought him a family doctor. The doctor gave him an antipyretic injection, prescribed a few doses of medicine, and left after taking care of some matters that should be paid attention to in diet.

Ruan Jinwen's home is a luxurious duplex structure with a building within a building. After drinking the medicine, he lies alone in the huge room on the second floor. The house that he didn't think was empty before felt unpopular at this moment.He asked his aunt to move some soft furnishings to his bedroom, and took all the pillows in the whole house to surround himself.Even so, even though he was densely surrounded by a whole pile of pillows, the feeling around him was still the same as his heart, no matter how empty it was.

Fortunately, the medicine prescribed by the doctor finally had side effects. After staring at the ceiling in a daze for half an hour, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep.

It snowed for two consecutive days, and the sun began to clear on the third day.After a heavy snowfall, the haze disappeared without a trace, and the sky and the earth were white.Looking out from Ruan Jinwen's luxury apartment, everything is covered with snow, and the whole Beijing is like a world shrouded in white.

At noon, a group of people came, sometimes Shaoqing, and some friends who usually play together.Several people didn't know where they got the news that Ruan Jinwen was ill, so they gathered together to see him.

Except for Shi Shaoqing, these people are all the second-generation ancestors who are usually inconspicuous.In the past, Ruan Jinwen was used to being pampered and didn't get sick very much, so they never saw Ruan Jinwen in decline.Seeing his pale, bloodless face, disheveled hair, and uncleaned beard, they took turns mocking him,

"Jin Wen, what's wrong with you? Are you playing? Or are you worrying?"

"I don't think it's for fun. Can Jin Wen play like this? It's obvious that he's being crushed and fucked, okay? Jin Wen's character, you got him in the wrong position, right?"

"I just said, what are you doing to be a family member? You look at Jin Wen's current appearance, and the lamp is almost exhausted. This is really a life-saving palm. Those who don't know think he is playing too aggressively. | Everyone is dead."

"Damn it, it's so fucking worthless, how chic it was before!"

Ruan Jinwen was in a bad mood at first, but when they made a fuss, he found a way to vent his anger, opened his eyes angrily, pointed at the dudes in the room, and scolded, "Get out of here!" , Too idle, right? I need some of you to give me advice on what the hell to do? Who the hell are you all? If you have such leisure, get out early, do what you like, don’t be blind in front of me Beep beep, I still don’t have your turn to talk about it, young master.”

After cursing, he winked at Shi Shaoqing and motioned him to follow him upstairs.He walked to the stairs, turned around and said to the group of people, "I don't have anything to entertain you here. You can order takeaways for whatever you want to eat and drink."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Shi Shaoqing flew to Hong Kong that night, and now he came to say goodbye to Ruan Jinwen, and he didn't expect to meet that group of people.Ruan Jinwen knew that he was not from their group, so he dragged him upstairs to talk about the matter.

As soon as the door was closed, Shi Shaoqing asked with concern, "Are you really sick? Why did you make such a fuss? It was fine two days ago."

Ruan Jinwen walked to the living room connected to the bedroom by himself, sat down on the sofa, and replied, "Maybe I was really overdrawn a while ago, and I got a cold from standing outside for a while the day before yesterday. It's burning—" he pointed to his heart, "this place hurts."

"Have you taken your medicine?" Shi Shaoqing asked.

"I ate it, and now I am returning to my soul. Shaoqing, I know that this road is really difficult."

"I told you earlier that those who sit in that seat must have unimaginable resistance to stress."

"I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about Jian Bai!"

Shi Shaoqing was taken aback, looked up at Ruan Jinwen, and asked cautiously, "What happened to Jian Bai? What happened?"

Ruan Jinwen didn't make a sound, sighed after a while, and said:

"He should like someone else."

"..."

If it was because of work, Shaoqing could still understand. After all, Ruan Jinwen was used to idleness. Just listening to what he said during this period of time, it can be seen that Ruan's position is not very easy to sit on.But right now it's for love, not business, Shi Shaoqing really doesn't know how to persuade him.

In fact, he is no better than Ruan Jinwen.

Although Ruan Jinwen said that he liked Jian Bai a long time ago, in Shi Shaoqing's opinion, he didn't express anything special.Sometimes Shi Shaoqing even felt that Ruan Jinwen wanted to regard Jian Bai as his soulmate, but now it seemed that he had misunderstood it.It was a real liking - the kind of feeling that is restrained and dare not be touched lightly.

Men are the least good at saying a few comforting words at this stall. First, they don’t know where to start, and second, they are afraid that if they say something, the effect will not be satisfactory.

So, the final scene is that two people are relatively speechless, smoking a cigarette.

After smoking a cigarette, Shi Shaoqing said, "Jin Wen, I don't know how to speak, it all depends on fate, don't force it too much, I'm going back to Hong Kong today, if you feel tired and bored, come Hong Kong is looking for me. Maybe people won’t think so much when they walk outside.”

He is also an honest person, not very good at talking, but he speaks the truth.Ruan Jinwen knew that he could hardly hear words that encouraged him to fight for it, so he didn't force him or make things difficult for him, telling him to take care of himself and promising that he would take it lightly was a farewell to him.

Not long after Shi Shaoqing left, his assistant William came to Ruan Jinwen's house, and a group of dandies ordered some takeaways for Ruan Jinwen and left one after another. When William came, there were only Ruan Jinwen and the housekeeping aunt left at home.

Ruan Jinwen knew that something urgent happened when he rushed to his apartment, so he asked him to tell the matter directly.

The assistant was panting, and after drinking the large glass of water brought by his aunt, he said, "I didn't find out what Yu Guang was going to Zhengyang, but I heard the news that Lin Simu, the son of Zhengyang, was beaten at the gate of the school." That's right, Director Lin went to school in the afternoon, and met Yu Guang once at school."

The author has something to say: Ruan Jinwen is quite arrogant, you know what happened here.

Everyone is very cold to me, it’s okay, in fact, I am also cold.

But today I still ask for flowers and collections again, those who read the web version remember to collect them, collections are really important to Wanyan at present.Thank you on your knees.
