Tears

Lu Aizhen started the car.

He was not in a good mood, he didn't like Ajaan who was troubled by money.If possible, he didn't want to take back the 16 at all. At that time, he almost told Ajiang.

It's settled, you've done the contract, you deserve it, you don't have to pay it back.

Yes, the matter is resolved, completely resolved.

He had a falling out with the Zhu family.A falling out on the surface, a real falling out.

When he returned to the hotel that day and settled Gu Jiang properly, he looked for everyone who was present at that time.He forcefully took away their mobile phones, and he did not hesitate to turn his face against several who refused to cooperate.

He deleted all the photos and videos they posted on social software, and he didn't let go of the album.It was during the process of deleting the album that he saw that video.

The owner of the video took a selfie on the top of the yacht, and the moving camera caught on to the scene where Zhu Ruoruo pushed Gu Jiang into the sea.

Lu Aizhen was going to find Zhu Ruoruo on the spot, but was stopped by Zhao Kaikai desperately.He directly contacted the Zhu family's parents, and issued an ultimatum, either to let Zhu Ruoruo return to England immediately, or he would call the police and use all the methods of the Lu family to put her in jail.

The Zhu family didn't seem to expect that he would tear up his face like this, but it didn't take them much time to make a decision.Zhu Ruoruo was packed and sent directly from Sanya back to England that day, and the Zhu family guaranteed that she would never appear in front of Lu Aizhen again.

He didn't tell Ajaan about this, at the beginning, it was because of selfishness.If Ajaan found out, their contract would be completed, and he would have no reason to pester Ajaan any more.

He threatened Zhao Kaikai not to let the news out, he refused to let A-Jiang contact anyone else, and he brought A-Jiang back to Shanghai alone.

Later, Ajaan said that he would terminate the contract.He inexplicably felt that even if he said it, Ajaan would not ask for the money.Ajaan wanted to erase this past, he wanted to be with Axian cleanly.

So, he fulfilled him.

Then, help as much as he can without crossing the line.

"Axian, something happened."

The office door was suddenly pushed open, and Shang Xian put away his cell phone in a panic, before he could blame the person who came for not knocking on the door.Wu Maoshu led the way in, and Zhou Ling followed.Her hair was disheveled, her breathing was short of breath, her face was flushed, and she looked unfriendly.

A Ling's feet were in pain. She couldn't wait for the elevator just now and climbed all the way up more than twenty floors.The high heels were torturing her feet, and the heels were frayed, but she didn't have time to find a Band-Aid.

"Jiang Qianshan didn't come to work."

During this period of time, Shang Xian avoided A Ling intentionally or unintentionally, but A Ling's words forced him to face her squarely.Jiang Qianshan is an artist specially hired by them to be responsible for the character image design of this new game. Now that there is more than a week before the road show, sudden absenteeism is not a good sign.

"I can't reach him on the phone, and I don't respond to WeChat. I went to his house just now, and there was no one. The landlord said that he had checked out last month."

A trace of uneasiness faintly rose in Shangxian's heart, and he forced himself to calm down.

"What about relatives and friends?"

Zhou Ling shook her head, "His hometown is in the Northeast. I called the phone number he left when he joined the company, but it was an empty number. He doesn't have a girlfriend either, and we don't even know about friends."

Shang Xian frowned, "Is there no one in the company who can contact him?"

Wu Maoshu interrupted impatiently, "I dare not let everyone know now, for fear of disturbing the morale of the army. I secretly asked the people in their art department, and no one had any contact with him in private."

Wu Maoshu pressed his eyebrows, "Fortunately, just in case, I put the art and technology at the two farthest corners. The technology department has not gotten wind yet. I have told the people in the art department to keep their mouths shut."

Before he finished speaking, Shang Xian's face suddenly changed, and Wu Maoshu panicked for a while.

"What's wrong? What did you think of?"

Shang Xian waved his hand to stop his questioning, he picked up his cell phone, not knowing who to contact.

Wu Maoshu and Zhou Ling sat opposite each other, their hearts fluttered, and they dared not vent their anger.Especially Wu Maoshu, this is the second time in his life that he has fought back.

Four years ago, he and Shang Xian resigned to start a business together. The two mortgaged the house they bought at home.

This time, they once again mortgaged all their belongings.But this time is different. Last time, he never looked back. If he loses, he will be beaten back to his original form and start all over again.But now, he has a wife and a son, so he has no capital to start over.He can't lose. If he loses this battle, he won't have another chance to stand up.

He can't lose.

"Snapped!"

The mobile phone flew over the heads of Wu Maoshu and A Ling, and Shang Xian slammed the table, his eyes were shattered.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Wu Maoshu stood up, pinched Shangxian's arm and asked.A Ling ran to pick up the phone, the screen was torn apart, and the interface was still dutifully stuck on the final operation.

A Ling's pupils shrank suddenly, and she slid up the screen in disbelief.

"How... how could this be?"

A Ling slumped on the ground, and the phone slipped from her fingers.

"What the hell happened?!"

Wu Maoshu gave up Shangxian, and he ran to A Ling, the interface had not been extinguished, and the crack did not prevent Wu Maoshu from seeing the content clearly.

It was a photo, a photo of the meeting scene, and the photos were all acquaintances.

Zhao Kaikai, Lu Aizhen, several senior executives who passed on the salary, and... Liu Shengchao, the boss of Linglong.

By the way, today is the day of Linglong's roadshow. If there are no accidents, next week, in the same place, the same people will also conduct a roadshow for their new game.

However, there will be no more roadshows.

Spirit Dragon's game... uses their avatars.

It's not 100% the same, the hair color and accessories are changed, but as long as they are not blind, anyone can see that they are exactly the same.

"Fuck him | Fuck Liu Shengchao."

Wu Maoshu raised the phone and wanted to smash it, but then remembered that it was Shang Xian's phone, so he could only put it down angrily.

"Axian, what should we do now?" He called out to Shangxian.

Shangxian turned a deaf ear.What to do, how did he know what to do, he also wanted to ask what to do.There is still a week, nearly a hundred character designs, what should I do?

Wu Maoshu was stimulated by Shangxian's indifferent appearance, he didn't dare to fight against Shangxian, so he had to vent his anger on A Ling.

"How do you do the entry review? Didn't you find so many problems? What do you do now? What do you say now?"

He wouldn't do anything to a woman, but his fingers almost poked A Ling's face.

"What's the matter with her?"

Shangxian said suddenly, "We are the one who is looking for the person, what can she review?"

Wu Maoshu wanted to refute, but was interrupted, "The landlord said that he moved last month, which means that the address he filled in is true. The home phone can't be reached. Do you know if it's a fake or a new one? Maybe it's just sold out. Household, do you want her to go to her hometown to confirm?"

"We recruited so many people," Shang Xian sneered, "I haven't seen you make such a request before."

Wu Maoshu was so blocked by him that he couldn't speak, and A Ling burst into tears, which made him a stranger inside and out.

"Okay, you guys are amazing, you and your husband are of one mind." He put the phone back into A Ling's hand and uttered harsh words. "Husband and wife are of the same heart, and their benefits cut through gold. You can settle this matter, and I will listen to your orders."

Ah Ling didn't cry because she was scolded. She had been with Ah Xian through ups and downs for so many years, and she had never been scolded.She cried because she was happy, because she was relaxed, and because she was relieved.During this time, she was almost stretched to the limit.

Ah Yin is avoiding her.

Don't go to her place, don't take her back, avoid physical contact with her, and avoid communicating with her eyes.She was terrified, uneasy, and in a constant state of anxiety.But she didn't dare to question Ah Xian, she didn't know if Ah Xian was waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to have a showdown with her.She only knew that she would not give Ah Yin this chance.

But now, Ah Xian is protecting her, that's enough.

"Ah Xian, how about..." A Ling bit her lip and looked at Shang Xian, as if hesitating whether to say it or not.

"Say it!" Wu Maoshu immediately became anxious when he heard her words, and shouted while tugging at her arm, "Say what you can do!"

"Or, let's ask A Jiang for help." A Ling was cruel, and said, "Isn't he with Lu Aizhen, who passed on the salary, let him talk to Lu Aizhen, and give us a little more time. "

Wu Maoshu "Good idea." / Shangxian "Not good."

The two spoke in unison, but the words they said were completely opposite.

"Axian!"

"Don't say any more," Shangxian glanced at A Ling and Wu Maoshu coldly, "let all the people from the art department go to the conference room for a meeting."

The conference room was brightly lit, and Wu Maoshu hurried back from the outside. He finally got confirmation that Linglong's technical core this time was not at all similar to theirs.

This is the whole day, the only thing to be thankful for.Wu Maoshu made a contribution, and his carefulness prevented Hanyou from being hit hard at the same time in terms of technology and art.

But even so, they still face an extremely difficult predicament.All the artists have been stuck here for an afternoon, and no one can come up with a good solution.

All the information is in Jiang Qianshan's computer, they have no way to prove that the character is theirs.Even if there is, it will not help. Linglong will never do things without hesitation. Since it is clear that it is Yin and the others, they must have arranged the beginning and the end.They won't benefit from arguing with Linglong about plagiarism.

Shangxian knew that postponing the road show was the only way.But how to talk to Chuanxin, their relationship is not equal, they are the one who is being examined, judged, and their fate is determined.What would he use to talk to those who hold their lifelines? He had to have a bargaining chip.

A Ling silently exited the meeting room. In the past, she would go to prepare a supper for everyone in such an all-night meeting. No one cared about her leaving.

Rough lines appear on the canvas, and Ajaan's painting style is the complete opposite of his own.From the first time Lao Ge met him, he said that no one could guess that such a painting was made by him.

Ajaan didn't say anything at that time, just laughed.He also finds it amazing that when he paints, his hands seem to have their own souls.He often feels that the inspiration is not in his mind, but in his hands.Just like now, his stomach has been growling with hunger, but he still can't stop, only when his hands feel that it's okay, can he stop to take a breath.

Gu Jiang walked into the kitchen, and the dishes prepared in the afternoon were still on the stove.He was rummaging in the cupboard for plastic wrap, and when he was painting in the afternoon, he received a WeChat message from Axian, saying that he might not be back today, so he continued to paint with all his heart.

Gu Jiang wrapped the dishes one by one and put them in the refrigerator.Alone at home, too lazy to cook, he took a pot of water and started to boil it.He found noodles deep in the cupboard, bought them back then, and never touched them again.

Gu Jiang was in a daze, he didn't know what to think of, until the water gurgled, he just took out a bag.

The same Yangchun noodles, eat by yourself, there is no need to steal the shallots from Grandma Wang.A-Jiang took an egg from the refrigerator, he was too lazy to fry it, so he broke it and threw it into the pot directly.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk"

There was a knock on the door, Ah Xian is back?After changing the lock, Lu Aizhen only gave him a key. He always wanted to get another one, but always forgot.

Must go to match tomorrow.A-Jiang trotted to open the door while thinking.

"Ah Yin."

"...A Ling?"
