dark crossing

Lin Huo's call came faster than Shen Ting imagined.

He was very efficient, and the phone call went straight to the point without even exchanging pleasantries. ——Several major shareholders of the board of directors suddenly called one after another, saying that they really wanted to meet Song Ci, including Veron of course.

Shen Ting laughed on the other end of the phone, and sighed more jokingly than earnestly: "The members of our board of directors want to see me all together? There is really a tacit understanding! There are so many directors, but Veron is the only one who follows the lead. , all working together, it's no wonder my brother's Tianhui can grow bigger and bigger."

The sentence "My brother's Tianhui" makes the whole sentence meaningful.

Shen Ting knowingly asked: "Lin Huo, you said that it's not been a day or two since I came back, why didn't anyone think about it a few days ago? Well, I think that the one everyone wants to see is probably the one named Chu ?”

He was making some kind of jokes on his lips, but he thought to himself that the spread efficiency of pornographic news is high.The news about him and Chu Huainan spread quickly, and in just a few hours, Veron was already alarmed.

That human mouthpiece, Xu Kai, is simply gifted in disseminating gossip. If he can make his debut as a tabloid reporter, he might be able to occupy a place in the gossip world.

Shen Ting was analyzing Xu Kai's talent, but he didn't know himself. In the eyes of others, he was even more "skeletal surprise".

Human-like little beast!Lin Huo scolded in his heart.It only took ten days to get close to Chu Huainan to the point of being "inseparable" and "entering the house". Song Ci with this kind of means, of course, can afford anyone to look at him differently.

Lin Hoben didn't want to point out his relationship with Chu Huainan.

After all, the gender of the two people is there. Even if it is really "hot" as the rumors say, it is not a good marriage for a man to marry a college student and a female college student to marry.

But when he saw that the person involved was not ashamed but rather proud, he stopped hiding it and boasted with a smile: "Chu Huainan's move is very good."

"Of course." The previous teasing suddenly turned cold, and it became a cold snort squeezed out from between the teeth: "The people on the board of directors are mostly bullying and fearful, and they look down on others. Seeing my brother lying in the hospital , I thought there was no one in my Song family."

Shen Ting's lowered voice was full of disdain: "They really think that old guy Veron, it would be great if they get along with Chu Zhensheng?"

Compared to Chu Huainan, Chu Zhensheng was indeed nothing special.

Lin Huo was very relieved, but then he thought about Song Ci's unrestrained behavior in the relationship between the sexes, and he couldn't help worrying that he would get carried away, so he reminded: "It's true that Chu Huainan is a king, but you have to have a sense of proportion."

He paused, and felt that he had to be clear and said: "Since you have established a relationship with him, don't play around all the time. Chu Huainan has a good reputation, but his methods have always been overbearing. This Wang Zha is If you want to blow up others, don't be confused, and then blow yourself up."

"understood."

The one on the other side of the phone answered too quickly, which seemed insincere.

But it is related to Song Ci's private life, so Lin Huo only regarded it as the little ancestor, and he really listened to his own words. He said seriously: "Now may be the best time for you to enter the company's management. Long's people called me and wanted to invite you to have tea tomorrow afternoon."

Shen Ting remained silent on purpose and did not speak.

Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Lin Huo frowned slightly and asked, "What do you think?"

"What can I think?" Pretending to be dumbfounded, Shen Ting sighed, and then casually said something stupid: "I'm good at chasing people to bed, but I still have to listen to you when it comes to company management." It was as if he really slept with that peachy-faced Chu Huainan.Shen Ting frowned, and gritted his teeth uncomfortably, thinking, it was Song Ci who did it anyway, not him!

Lin Huo and Shen Ting made an appointment to have lunch together the next day, and by the way, discuss things to pay attention to when meeting Veron.

This Veron has many weird hobbies, and Lin Huo felt that it was necessary for him to get to know Song Ci first, so as not to encounter bad luck when they met for the first time.

In addition, since Veron offered to invite Song Ci to drink tea, he must be very concerned about the close relationship between Song Ci and Chu Huainan.

Most of this tea is a banquet at the Hongmen.But they had to go.After all, no matter in terms of position or seniority, if Song Ci wants to enter Tianhui smoothly, he should go to Veron's place to pay a visit to the pier.

……

The next day, Shen Ting woke up early as usual.The biological clock is more effective than any alarm clock. No matter how late he goes to bed at night, he will always wake up around [-] o'clock the next morning.

But in order to be able to play Song Ci well with an irregular life and rest, Shen Tingsheng lay in bed until ten o'clock.

Aunt Zhao had already prepared breakfast, and when she saw him coming out of the room, she greeted him enthusiastically and unsurpassedly: "Mr. Song, breakfast is ready, and I will set it up now." wink.The other two middle-aged aunts immediately held the trays and arranged small cups and saucers on the long dining table.

A few days ago, when he first saw this "Manchu Banquet" breakfast, Shen Ting once declined: "I don't have the habit of eating breakfast, let alone lunch soon."

But although Aunt Zhao was polite, she was very persistent.With a embarrassed face, he explained in a gentle voice that it was Chu Huainan who repeatedly told them to watch him eat breakfast before going out.

"If you know that you didn't have breakfast, Mr. Chu will be unhappy."

In the face of loving and vulnerable female comrades, Shen Ting has always had no choice but to surrender.

And Aunt Zhao seemed to have insight into his special concerns about meals.Before the food was served on the table, people had to take a sip in front of him before putting it in front of him.

Shen Ting was extremely shocked in his heart, forced the corners of his mouth to curl up, and thought: Is this a drug test?

Thinking about it this way, one can't help but feel the horror of being seen through.

Just when he had various associations because of the act of tasting the vegetables.Aunt Zhao duly followed Chu Huainan's intentions, started to talk nonsense in a serious manner, and smiled apologetically at the guests: "The Chu family has a great career, and there are not a few people who are jealous. These are the rules passed down in the mansion, and you have to be wronged." Mr. Song, please understand."

Shen Ting was speechless, he was so shocked by this "mansion's rules" that his back was covered with sweat.But I thought of the loud words that Chu Huainan said on the rooftop that day.He immediately comforted himself, although the capitalist has a pair of eyes that seem to be able to see through all secrets, but he may not necessarily be a heinous bastard.

Under Aunt Zhao's sincere gaze, Shen Ting picked up the chopsticks and buried herself in her breakfast.

Chu Huainan went out very early every day, but he was careful and asked female comrades to keep an eye on him for him.Therefore, Shen Ting could only "lose power and humiliate the country" and eat breakfast on time every day.

Today, he has gradually become familiar with all kinds of breakfasts with various patterns and varieties.

Slowly sitting at the dining table, under the eager gaze of Aunt Zhao and several other aunts, Shen Ting, who "just woke up", drank half a cup of porridge, ate two crystal shrimp dumplings and a small plate of cold kale, Then, looking at the unmoving char siu buns, chicken feet in black bean sauce and red rice sausage, he shrugged helplessly, "I really can't eat the rest."

Aunt Zhao, who was well-dressed and didn't look like a servant at all, smiled very understandingly: "It's okay, it's okay. You go to bed late at night and wake up late in the morning. It's normal to have no appetite. Eat a little to pad your stomach first." , Lunch will be in a while!"

Although Aunt Zhao is over half a hundred years old, she still has black and thick hair, with an elegant bun on the back of her head. There are only slight silver ash on her feet and deep smile lines at the corners of her eyes, revealing that she has served the Chu family for more than 20 years. .

She quickly cleared the dining table, and said after a while: "Mr. Chu will also come back today to have lunch with you."

"I won't be eating here at noon."

Shen Ting made an appointment with Lin Huo yesterday to have lunch together.

Aunt Zhao was surprised to hear that he was going out.

Although this apartment is very close to the company, Chu Huainan has always been a workaholic who pays attention to efficiency. When he is not socializing, he always eats in the company's restaurant.

Aunt Zhao could tell that Chu Huainan attached great importance to Mr. Song.I deliberately took the time to come back to eat, but I missed it, I must be a little disappointed.But she is a servant, so it is difficult to say anything, let alone guess what is the relationship between this strange looking young man who can stay at home and Chu Huainan.

After Shen Ting finished his breakfast, he got up and went back to his room. While walking, he clicked on his phone's address book, and dialed the number he noted as "capitalist".

This phone call allowed Chu Huainan to comprehend by himself what it means to be "fainted with lust".

He was in a meeting when he received a call from Shen Ting.The mobile phone that was set to vibrate mode kept vibrating on the table. He frowned and was about to press it, but when he caught a glimpse of the name on the caller ID, the impatience of being interrupted in the middle of the meeting disappeared immediately.Instead, there was a hint of indescribable emotion mixed with joy.

Chu Huainan signaled for the suspension of the meeting for the first time, and under the curious eyes of everyone, he left the meeting and answered the phone.

Wang Xiaojun, the secretary who knew Chu Huainan very well, couldn't help being taken aback, and immediately judged that this should be a very important call.

Her judgment was correct, this was indeed a very important call.

Chu Huainan thought to himself, this should be the first time in history that he received a call from this person.

But this call caused Chu Huainan to drop the important call from the meeting, but the content was ordinary.

"I have something to do today. I have to go out for a while. If I don't eat at home, you don't have to rush back."

The word "home" made Chu Huainan smile slightly.This is a good habit of notifying the phone and knowing that you need to report when you go out.

Just listening to the sound, Shen Ting could imagine that Chu Huainan's hateful and provocative peach blossom eyes must be firing randomly at this moment.

"You're still hurt, don't run around all the time."

Chu Huainan's sentence was clearly an accusation, but his tone was very gentle, and by the way, he checked the post with confidence: "Where are you going this afternoon?"

Shen Ting really wanted to reply half-jokingly: Can you control where to go?

But when the words came to his lips, they turned into: "Go to meet someone and deal with something."

He made this phone call originally to mention the matter of Tianhui to Chu Huainan.

Chu Huainan was visibly quiet when he heard the other end of the phone.The other party was not in a high mood, and there was a rare depression in his tone: "Oh, since you have investigated me, you should know that my brother had an accident a while ago, and now he is unconscious."

As if hesitating whether to say it or not, his voice paused slightly, and then he continued: "Actually, it's not surprising that some people want to take the opportunity to completely change the dynasty. Humans are always self-interested."

Shen Ting sighed slightly, but her tone was helpless but firm: "When I return to China this time, I just want to compete with those ambitious guys. Although I also know that not everyone has the ability to be like you, young I easily grasped the real power of the company. But even if I'm not a business material, I still have to struggle! I can't just sit and watch Tianhui, who has always been surnamed Song, and just hand it over to others."

The deeds of Chu Huainan's "cleaning out dissidents" and monopolizing power in the past have been rumored to be somewhat demonized in the business circles of Jianghu City.

Although there are many praises, there are not a few who secretly accuse him of being ruthless and self-serving.

Chu Huainan has never felt that it is something to be happy to hold real power at his age.On the contrary, this form of power in his hands seemed to remind him all the time of the early death of the head of the Chu family.

From a certain point of view, both Shen Ting and Chu Huainan are models whose psychology is more precocious than physiology.In this day and age, "precocious" seems to be something to be proud of.

Young people who are "young and mature" and "stable and polite" are often regarded as role models by many peers.

But in fact, the maturity level of a person is closely related to his life experience.

A young man who will always live in a honeypot, even if he has read thousands of books, and can keenly spy on other people's lives from the text, and learn lessons and experience.But that's just talk on paper after all.The truth derived from thinking and the "true knowledge" obtained from practice have different weights.

Someone once compared the human heart to an apple, saying that the process of mental maturity is actually the process of the apple being oxidized and gradually rotted.

A person with a mind far superior to his peers is actually nothing to be proud of. On the contrary, this is a rather sad thing.Because, to a certain extent, this confirms the suffering he has experienced.

In the past, whenever someone mentioned words such as "young" and "holding real power" in person, Chu Huainan would subconsciously feel displeased.But today, he only felt that Shen Hearing's sentence "Not everyone has the ability to be like you..." sounded particularly pleasant to his ears.He himself felt a little unreasonable.

Obviously he dislikes being set up and used the most, but he actually likes to hear the other party complaining to him openly and flattering him secretly.

Is this another form of shared trouble?
