marvelous contract

Shao Fan first confirmed the itinerary with Diana: "I plan to follow your advice and make myself disappear for more than a week. You asked Aki and David to supervise the late stages of the last two episodes until Mrs. Molly's new dress presentation. Only you will know the new address, and email me directly for all business matters.”

The next three days can be called Shao Fan's martyrdom day, he almost put his life on this little black room.First, we negotiated several times with the landlord and got permission to start construction in time.

On the first day, the moving company was asked to put all Wei Chao's belongings on the aisle for the neighbors to choose and give them away for free.

The next step is to invite a few well-trained housekeeping teams to thoroughly clean the inside and outside of the house. The old marks on the glass windows are scraped and wiped clean. Don't let it go until the dumbbells are polished like new.

On the second day, I contacted the decoration company and found an acquainted home improvement guide. It took me half a day to purchase all the furniture. Half of the walls were painted white, and half of the walls were changed to warm colors according to the interval.

Knock out the wall tiles with cracks and replace them with small pieces of cultural stone. Because of the small space of the bathroom, it is difficult to completely remodel the plumbing facilities, so only the faucet and shower head are updated on the original basis. Of course, they are all Shaofan’s favorite brands.

The workers were busy from early morning to evening before they basically finished work. Shaofan also added exhaust and air heaters, and the shower room was completely updated.

Considering the vastness of the project, the floor will not be refurbished and replaced. Shaofan decided to achieve visual balance through artistic spray painting on a whim.

Because there is no time to order everything, they can only be roughly placed according to the size.

On the third day, I put green plants, disassembled and assembled lamps and appliances, and replaced the kitchen countertops. By the way, I asked the secretary to mail my own kitchen utensils and tableware. A full set of range hood equipment from Germany is on the way.

There are also new curtains, which Shaofan is most worried about. Until he can open the window and let the room breathe freely, the white gauze inside the curtain dances with the wind, which is very comfortable. Sit down and make a cup of tea for a rest.

The signal in the old house was unstable, so Shaofan applied for network widening and installed a wireless router.The only piece of furniture that remained intact was the big bed in the bedroom, except, of course, the sheets.

Because he was afraid that Wei Chao would not be able to open the door when he came back, Shao Fan reluctantly changed the outermost door lock. In order to avoid the third aunt breaking into the empty door again, Shao Fan skillfully coaxed the spare key back.

As for the refrigerator that often leaked water, it was eventually taken by the landlord's uncle for recycling.

At the same time, Xu Jiamin received a mysterious call one day, and the other party solemnly explained: "Hi, Ms. Xu, I am Cao Yuenian, the newly hired legal counsel of the firm. Your firm provides comprehensive legal support and is responsible for external negotiations.”

"Huh? Cao Yuenian? That good-looking lawyer Lao Cao on TV?"

A laugh came from the other side: "Yes, it's me, Miss Xu is really humorous."

Jiamin's mouth could almost put down a bird's egg, because she couldn't think of anyone who was bored enough to pretend to be Lao Cao to tease her, so she believed it at the time, but she couldn't figure out the cause and effect for a while.

Could it be that Wei Chao rushed to Shenzhen these days because he got some big shots, so the bad luck stopped and a 180-degree reversal came?Will it be too ridiculous.

"Miss Xu, I can't get in touch with Mr. Shang Wei, please refer him. If you have time, come to my Pengfei Law Firm to sign the new contract and legal documents. I can also send my colleagues to your new office in Kowloon Bay. Station instructions."

"New office?"

Cao Yuenian seemed to be looking through the information at hand: "Yes, my registration here is No. [-]-[-], [-]st Floor, Building C, Block C, Xingang Building, Kowloon Bay."

"Ah, OK, I...understand."

"Thank you, this is my private number, please contact me immediately when Mr. Wei comes back."

Cao Yuenian ended the conversation succinctly, and felt sorry for Xu Jiamin who was sitting at home in a cold sweat.Their firm didn't even hire a decent accountant, how could there be a team of lawyers in charge, oh my god!Brother Chao, where did you die, things got bigger!How can you call me a weak woman?

I don't know if Jiamin's prayer was too urgent, but at noon that day, she received a message from Wei Chao.

"I'm back in Hong Kong, is the office cleared? Are you all right these days?"

As soon as Jiamin heard his nonchalant tone, she became anxious: "Ah Chao, you should rush to the Xingang Building in Kowloon Bay right now, it is extremely urgent."

"What are you doing there?"

"Are you kidding me? I want to ask you what you want!"

The time points to one hour later.

When Wei Chao, who was tired from the travel and dust, stood side by side with Jia Min, who was rarely wearing a suit and wearing denim, at the designated place, the expressions they looked at each other were really ridiculous.

Xingang is a newly built high-end office building. The first floor of the group buildings is full of floor-to-ceiling windows. If you work here, the environment is bright and transparent, which makes you feel relaxed and happy.

But the land in this area is expensive, either it is contracted by private studios and design studios, or it is divided up by real estate agents, overseas students, and preschool education agencies. A small office like Wei Chao has no way to stand aboveboard.

But now there is a low-key and powerful signboard at the door of the rooms with astonishing capacity from [-] to [-]. There are only two artistic words on the doorplate: "Extraordinary."

In the blink of an eye, Wei Chao's heart was beating wildly, and his palms were sweating frequently. He really felt that he was cornered.

Gu Shaofan, what are you doing? !

Jiamin boldly pushed away one of the occupied rooms, and there were two workers adjusting the lampshade on the roof on a ladder in a space of hundreds of feet, and a woman was on the scene directing.

Jiamin's intrusion caught the lady's attention, she turned her head and said with a smile: "You are finally here, I am Mary Jiang in the image of Ai Fei, I have been waiting here for a long time." She turned behind Jiamin Looking at it, "Are you Mr. Wei? The place is ready, starting from next Monday, and you can move into the office at any time."

Wei Chao didn't say a word, his face was expressionless. He always maintained the basic etiquette to women, but this time, he really couldn't laugh.In the end, because he was too embarrassed, he just nodded and left the door.

Jia Min was a little taken aback, she was too excited today, and she really couldn't get used to it, so she apologized to Marie Jiang, picked up Wei Chao's simple luggage, and ran out after his footsteps.But when she chased to the gate of the building, Wei Chao was no longer in sight.

Jiamin no longer had the energy to act like a lady, so she sat down on the steps.

"Brother Chao, stop playing! Hey, my brain is muddled, why am I reciting it like this! Who will tell me what is going on here?"

At this time, Wei Chao had already stopped a taxi and rushed to the Mingzhu Building. He had to confront the parties to help him sort out his ideas and decide how to deal with these unexpected prizes.

For now, Wei Chao felt that what Gu Shaofan gave was not only out of principle, but also so thick that it made him panic.The general environment in which the two lived has nothing in common, and the current relationship is even more muddled.

Why did the Gu man take a knife to his life and let him be manipulated like a puppet?

Even if it is giving, there must be a limit, and you must also look at the target!Can that guy figure out the situation? If he is a woman, should he simply marry him to repay his kindness? !

There was still no way to slow down his heartbeat. Even when he entered the shooting range training at the police academy and stood firm on the target, he could quickly adjust his heart rate and calm down.But I don't know why I am so cowardly and hesitant today, my heart seems to have leaked, and I can't be resurrected.

However, to his disappointment, he had already heard the news that Gu Shaofan was away on a business trip before going upstairs this time.

"Where did he go?"

"He may be in Southeast Asia, but the specific itinerary is kept secret. Sorry, you can make an appointment if you have something to do. We will convey it to Xiu Yi when he comes back."

It was another appointment, and Wei Chao walked out of the building dejectedly. Most of his momentum to find Gu Shaofan had been exhausted just now.

He suddenly felt that his act of rushing to Mingzhu was naive and impulsive, what qualifications did he have to negotiate with that person.

If you don't accept the other party's gift, you can stiffen your neck and turn around and leave. However, Wei Chao really discovered at this moment that the reason for his entanglement is that whenever he faces Gu Shaofan, he always takes the lead. Ruthlessly, he couldn't play it in the end.

It turned out that it was always me who compromised.Wei Chao didn't hate Gu Shaofan as much as he thought, and like everyone else, he didn't really feel that he was unpopular.This is the sticking point.

Now he needs to give his brain enough time and space to cool down, so he chooses to walk home slowly.

I don't know how long we walked, but it was already afternoon when Wei Chao entered the corridor.

The schoolgirls on the second floor were off on weekends, bouncing downstairs, and when they saw Wei Chao, they smiled at him: "Brother Chao, your microwave is very useful, thank you."

"Huh? Oh."

Wei Chao was stunned, thinking that he had lost his memory. When did he give away his home appliances with such generosity?Isn't there only a few old people who will go to his house to pick up things?How come even schoolgirls dare to enter the house to rob after only a few days of going out?

When he reached the third floor, the third aunt's little grandson came out to surround him with great enthusiasm, and even escorted him up half of the stairs: "Brother Chao, when will your family set up a stall again? Do you have a small plane at home? I don't want a mirror, I want a little airplane."

Wei Chao shuddered suddenly, realizing the seriousness of the situation. During his absence, he seemed to have missed some very important season finale.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and Wei Chao went straight up to the seventh floor in three steps and two steps.

He took out the key that he carried with him, but the door had not been changed, it was still the original iron door, Wei Chao was a little relieved, and also amused by the nervousness he had just shown.

The keyhole was turned half a turn and the door opened. He clearly remembered that he always locked the door twice when he went out. Could it be someone?Wei Chao pulled out the key, pressed the doorknob and pulled the door open, then took a deep breath, the scene in front of him really dazzled him──

He whispered to himself in his heart: Wei Chao, welcome to the perfect new world.

Next, you can choose to get angry outright, or you can participate in a TV decoration program as an impromptu, and be ecstatic because of your luck.

But these two are obviously not Wei Chao's reaction.

Although he has had enough of Gu Shaofan's hobby of using money as waste paper, but evaluating this special meticulousness and endurance is really within the range of abnormal human beings.

At least he, Wei Chao, would not waste time and effort doing such a thankless job.

He walked straight in slowly, and unexpectedly heard Gu Shaofan's voice.The man was actually in the house, in his bedroom.

"Delta's contract has been fully finalized, just ask Danny to come forward to sign it. The editing of the last episode was not good. Fortunately, the higher-ups did not pursue it. I will find time to talk to the director next week." Shao Fan was talking to his assistant. Listen to a few sentences and answer a few sentences, expressing concisely and thinking clearly.

"The new ingredients from Elaine's side, let the purchaser check it out, I'll probably—"

Shao Fan was sitting on the bed, felt the gaze from his side, paused in his words, turned his head to look in Wei Chao's direction, a trace of unspeakable emotion flashed across his face.

At that moment, there was a special look, which was the ambiguous touch that Wei Chao wanted to avoid.Fulfillment through distance, through telepathy.

On the other end of the video, Diana called her boss several times, and Shao Fan realized that he had forgotten what to say: "Uh, that's all for today." Then he closed the laptop.

Shao Fan looked into Wei Chao's eyes, like a child who had been waiting for the report card for many days, his nerves suddenly relaxed, and he lowered his head slightly, more like talking to himself: "You are back."

Wei Chao was at a loss for words all of a sudden, and swallowed the saliva that he had thought up just now.

He looked back, and there were some simple wall paintings on the narrow corridor connecting the bedroom and the living room, with a few pots of slightly interesting green plants dotted among them.

The eyes of the two who didn't meet conveyed too much information, and Wei Chao's eye sockets suddenly burst into heat, like the itching of insects and ants, this shock was no less than any turning point encountered in life.

That strange feeling caused a strange chemical reaction in his body, which made him feel at a loss, but his expression was still full of stubbornness.

Wei Chao calmed down his emotions: "Can I ask you a question?"

Because the bedroom is too small to fit a computer desk, Shao Fan sat casually in the middle of the big bed, at this moment he just nodded his head slightly, and turned his head to look at him.

Wei Chao continued to ask: "Do you want to keep me?"

"Heh." Shao Fan couldn't help chuckling, he really didn't expect Wei Chao to be so funny.

"If you want to take care of me, it's not enough to give me an office building and renovate my residence. If it's just a down payment, I promise to reluctantly consider it."

Wei Chao sat down solemnly, put his thighs on the edge of the bed, and drew closer to Shao Fan, his tone was a little joking and self-deprecating, "Do you know that my first night sold for 150 million. I'm really expensive, think about it clearly .”

Shao Fan's expression was a bit complicated, and he answered cautiously and softly: "As long as you are happy, I think it's worth it."

"Thank you boss for treating me so highly, but what if I'm not happy?"

"As long as you give me a reason, we can try to improve."

Wei Chao made up his mind to be tricky to the end: "I don't like light-colored sofas, and I don't know how to use these new things you installed. I can't seem to find my place. Are you trying to force me to hate myself?"

"If you are not satisfied, you can change everything except me at any time."

"You don't understand me." Wei Chao leaned his upper body towards him, and the two got closer, "If a person opens the door one day and finds that it is no longer his home, do you think there will be How unlucky and frustrating?"

"You don't think this is your home." Shaofan looked into the depths of his eyes, "You have no nostalgia for it, and you don't miss it. So, you can lend it to me."

"What do you mean—you want to stay here? Give up your luxury sea view room and come to suffer in this simple air-raid shelter. Are you really out of your mind?"

"I might be really out of order."

Shao Fan raised his right hand naturally, and combed Wei Chao's bangs with his fingertips. Wei Chao stubbornly turned his neck back slightly, avoiding it without a trace.

Shaofan's fingers stopped in mid-air, and he retracted helplessly, including his eyes. His confession made Xiu Yigu, who has always been invincible and invincible, in a difficult situation, so he could only lay out his nervousness on the snow-white bed sheet melancholy superior.

"I have to admit, I've got a feeling for you, and you're starting to matter to me."

Hearing Gu Shaofan's words with his own ears, Wei Chao was still shocked, so the only way to suppress the panic at this moment was to pretend to be indifferent.

"How many times have you said such flattering lines to others? You have mistaken the person."

"I know, no matter how you say it, you won't believe it...forget it." Shao Fan smiled wryly.

He thought that his skin was thick enough to stalk, but when he really faced someone like Wei Chao, he knew that his decline would be difficult to reverse.

Like those suitors around me in the past, they have completely failed. If their posture can't be more free and easy, even they will feel pitiful.

"I don't have the right to force you to try something you don't want to do. It's not something a mature person would do, so it's no wonder you can't accept it." It's rare that Shaofan said it so sincerely, as if he had stripped his hard self, " Some things have been overdone without your consent, please don't mind too much."

Wei Chao's throat was hard and sad as if it was clogged, and it seemed stingy to keep silent at this moment, and he couldn't accept it when he wanted to give diplomatic words.

"I just don't know what is between us. I—I'm not that prepared...so you can choose to retreat at any time, and that's good for us."

Wei Chao felt that his explanation seemed clear, but his consciousness was a little blurred.

"Then at least let me be your partner." Shaofan finally proposed a compromise, "You can question me, but at least give me some time to prove my sincerity."

Someone even hung up the signboard for me, and asked me about it!

Wei Chao thought he would firmly refuse, but unexpectedly he said: "Chaofan, with such a proud name, who would dare to come to talk about business, I thought our business was going to steal black and white."

"That was before, and it can be done aboveboard now."

"I don't want to take advantage of you, so we can't be business partners. Do you understand if we disagree with each other?" Wei Chao issued an ultimatum, "If I remember correctly, you seem to be running a bar."

Shao Fan smiled lightly, feeling a little sad for his hot face and cold butt.

"You always distance yourself from me indiscriminately. Even if I behave badly, at least give me a chance to cooperate with you."

"Don't you think it's a bit mean? I look like I'm in need of a handout?"

"This is not charity. As I said, this time I am not helping you, but helping myself."

Hearing the deep meaning in Shao Fan's words, Wei Chao became dull again.

"I just need you...I mean, I need to be your partner."

Wei Chao bowed his head in silence, then stood up with his hands on his hands, walked slowly to the window sill, opened the exquisite roller blind, looked downstairs, and after a while suddenly asked: "Is that old Mercedes downstairs yours?" ?”

"It's an old car from the family. I know you don't like attention, so I drove it over here."

"Then I want to thank you for thinking of that."

If Gu Shaofan dared to park a hot Ferrari downstairs, he would immediately throw him out of the house.It's just that men love famous cars, and what Wei Chao really loves is the modified and handsome German-made jeep that Gu Shaofan uses most.

Wei Chao is no longer moved by material things, and treats money like dung, so he won't get angry.Therefore, if Gu Shaofan insists on being taken advantage of, can he really continue to display his personal style unceremoniously, and vent his dissatisfaction as he pleases.

According to the original small business, it is not a problem to be responsible for its own profits and losses. It is not a problem to make a living, but now that Gu Shaofan blindly invests in his firm, it is really a sledgehammer, and it also adds to his burden.

Now is no longer an era when people should be grateful for a little favor. Everyone doesn't care about gains and losses, and just want to work hard with peace of mind. Wei Chao can't accept the pies falling from the world with peace of mind.

"I'm not suitable for business, so I don't want to hurt anyone, and I don't want to make any guarantees."

Wei Chao decided to put the ugly truth on the table and make it clear.

"Let me use your money to do my own thing. I can't do it. I'm not suitable for working for others, and I don't want to spend all my time trying to fill the loopholes that can be easily covered. I'm not a dedicated person. Don't have too much hope in me, otherwise you are doomed to lose more than you gain."

"I hired a good team to back you up. You do what you did in the past, and you do it now. Whoever hinders you will be fired."

Wei Chao sighed: "You are such a desperate guy. Is that why you want to be a backup?"

At this moment, someone knocked on the door outside, Wei Chao glanced at Shao Fan, and then walked out.

As soon as the door opened, I saw a professional smiling face: "Mr. Gu? Please sign for the things you ordered." After speaking, I was not polite, and I just brought in the big boxes and small boxes, and piled them up in the living room.

Shao Fan followed, and began to unpack the box silently behind him. He frowned when he unpacked the third item: "I ordered a metal style, not black."

"Mr. Sorry, we called Miss Diana to confirm that silver is out of stock, and she said that black can be used instead."

"Forget it."

After he finished dismantling everything and the staff left, Wei Chao watched in confusion as he sorted out all the new products and placed them in the kitchen and bathroom in turn.

Wei Chao followed up in the kitchen, and he could recognize some of them, such as the bread machine, coffee machine, grill, medium-sized oven, and a set of cooking utensils.

He finally couldn't hold back his words: "Do you think my house is qualified for a party? Are those things really practical?"

"That's because you are not used to it, I suggest you try it."

Wei Chao secretly bet that he has never seen most of the products that enter the bathroom, let alone their uses.

At this moment, he crossed his arms and asked suspiciously, "Are you trying to replace other people's simple values ​​with your extravagant and decadent philosophy of life?"

Shao Fan burst out laughing, he felt that once he became familiar with Wei Chao, he would often say surprisingly: "Yes, I want to influence you and make you get used to my existence."

"insidious."

Seeing that Gu Shaofan was still more stubborn than himself, Wei Chao also decided not to compete with him any longer, and it would be best to use cold violence against the opponent's various tricks to buy people's hearts.

Since he doesn't care about material comforts and Gu Shaofan feels so comfortable, let him do as he pleases.Anyway, vain happiness never poses a threat to him, Wei Chao.

Shaofan dragged all the empty packing boxes to the entrance corridor, then walked back to the living room, and made a formal application in the direction of Wei Chao: "I want to stay here for a few more days, is that okay?"

"I think you've been here long enough."

Although they spent a lot of money to renovate his house, it is natural for people to stay for a few more days, but Wei Chao is so unreasonable because of the sensitive relationship between Gu Shaofan and him. Stayed in the same room with Gu Shaofan for a long time.

"Are you really that reluctant to see me?"

Wei Chao lowered his head and remained silent, looking defeated, and finally let out a long sigh: "How long are you going to stay?"

Shao Fan can be regarded as frank and lenient: "Recently, I have been involved in some scandals, gossip reporters and paparazzi have been playing close-up shots, the apartment was blocked, and the car was followed. I came here when I thought you were here, but you have been here for a few days. It happened to be away, so I... cleaned it up."

Wei Chao slandered unhappily: Clean up!You might as well just sweep me, the original owner, out of the house as garbage.

"So you came here to take refuge. I thought you would put down your airs and condescend to come to my side to close the little black room." Wei Chao was a little sour, "But I'm sorry, I only have one bed here. , please sleep on the sofa in the living room."

Shaofan didn't answer directly, but changed the subject without a trace: "I heard that you went to Shenzhen. Is it for business?"

Wei Chao could have given a casual answer, but he paused for a moment and said, "It's a private matter."

"For one person?"

Shao Fan seemed to answer a sentence casually, but his heart trembled slightly. He was suddenly afraid that Wei Chao had very important people and things in his mind. There is no chance to get close to Wei Chao.

"No, for a memory."

Hearing such an emotional answer from the always carefree Wei Chao, Shao Fan was a little moved.

"Everyone has a secret in their heart." My secret now is you.

Wei Chao didn't seem to want to mention sentimental things, so he shook his head, turned around the living room twice, a little dazed, then stared at a few new cabinets in a daze, and said dully after a minute: "My instant noodles won't survive either. "

"hungry?"

Shao Fan approached, and Wei Chao saw that he was wearing long pajama pants with excellent fabric texture and a white vest on his upper body, and he looked very lazy and at home. This made Wei Chao feel a little strange, as if the other party had really been living in the Like here.

While thinking about it, Wei Chao suddenly felt a little depressed, but he heard Gu Shaofan say to him again: "There is something to eat in the refrigerator, and you can choose to make some at home."

"I'll go out to eat." Wei Chao was annoyed, turned around and planned to go out.

Although he really didn't want to be seen eating with Gu Shaofan outside, he didn't even want to eat the food cooked by Gu Shaofan, it would look...too intimate, and Wei Chao felt that he needed repeated psychological training to accept some cruelty fact.

"I know a good store. I know the owner very well. It offers [-]% off all year round. Do you want to try it?"

"Chandeliers and glass stairs? I can't stand it."

"I know what you like, wait for me to change my clothes." Shao Fan suddenly became a little excited, and ran into the bedroom like a child and opened the closet.

Wei Chao thought with a headache: This kid is really rude here, he even brought his clothes here.

But when Gu Shaofan finished dressing up and came out, Wei Chao opened his eyes wide.
