The second male who guards silently, you can't afford it

For a long time, he had only one friend, Shao Qihan, who was just an acquaintance with others, and Shao Qihan was born with a leadership temperament, no matter where he was, he could quickly integrate into the environment and get along with others, although for Shao Qihan It is said that Murong Jiu is his best friend, but the other party is also active in different circles.

The circle of drinking, the circle of racing cars, the circle of horse racing, all kinds of circles, and Murong Jiu has never been involved in these circles. This Chu Xu, who has not even said a few words, is probably a friend of Shao Qihan's circle. , so he was not surprised that Shao Qihan knew Chu Xu's background but he didn't.

Shao Qihan's talent is indeed higher than his own, Murong Jiu sees this very clearly, and is very calm, and sometimes even feels aggrieved for him.

Why is there someone older and more experienced than him for such an outstanding person?

Shao Qihan naturally didn't know what Murong Jiu was thinking at this time, he just nodded, and said with a little depression: "Not only among the various companies, but he also knows a lot about the secrets of the various aristocratic families."

While talking, the two had arrived at the parking lot, and they both got into the car.

"What does he want to do?" Murong Jiu started the engine, recalling the cunning young man in his memory, he couldn't help blurting out: "Could it be that he really wants to confront these big families?"

Shao Qihan sneered and said, "You also think highly of him. Words like 'overturning the family' were just words from him when he was young and didn't understand anything. You'll know it when you see him."

"Then why did you meet him specially?" Murong Jiu asked while driving.

"You forgot? Chu Xu knows a lot of secrets, so I went straight to him and asked him about the Bai family." Shao Qihan glanced at Murong Jiu's profile, "At that time he said that he would spend some time to investigate, and today he will call The phone said it was a bit of an eyebrow."

Murong Jiu remained silent.

About Bai Xiaoxi's matter, it stands to reason that he went to investigate it himself. There is a reason for it, and he is famous for his teacher.

But he was reluctant to investigate.

What is he afraid of?

Murong Jiu didn't know.

Murong Jiu didn't investigate, but it didn't mean Shao Qihan would stop his actions.

Shao Qihan can understand his friend's hesitation. Bai Xiaoxi is the woman he likes, but this woman may have something to do with his father. It is disturbing to guess from any angle.

The worst possibility——Bai Xiaoxi is the illegitimate daughter of Murong Jiu's father, this possibility has been ruled out, and then there are very bad, relatively bad, and bad possibilities, in short, none of them are good.

For example, it is related to the death of Murong Jiu's mother.

It is said that Mrs. Murong passed away after suffering from an old illness caused by excessive grief.

Shao Qihan still remembered Murong Jiu's appearance more than ten years ago.

Six-year-old Murong Jiu was delicate and cute, slender and pitiful. Six-year-old Shao Qihan had seen many children of the same age, but neither boys nor girls were half as good-looking as Murong Jiu.

Watching Murong Jiu cry from a distance, Shao Qihan felt very strange, and asked Shao Qidi: "Why is he crying?"

"His mother passed away." Shao Qidi replied simply, with a bitter voice.

At that time, Shao Qihan didn't understand why his mother would cry when his mother passed away, because he had never seen his mother, but when he grew up, he understood.

Shao Qihan sometimes thinks, is it more pitiful to have no mother in the first place, or is it more pitiful for Murong Jiu who lost his mother after having it?

No solution.

Although there is no solution, it will not change the fact that mother is important in the heart of my best friend.

How much Murong Jiu missed his mother, how happy he was when his father died.

So the matter of Bai Xiaoxi's life experience is a thorn in Murong Jiu's heart, if it is pulled out it will cause great pain, but if it is not pulled out it will be a dull pain.

Not only for the sake of his friends, but also for his own selfishness, Shao Qihan was determined to pull out this thorn himself.

He silently looked at the flying scenery outside the window and prayed secretly.

Pray the thorn is not a dreaded barb.

Neither of them said a word, one was driving the car intently, the other was concentrating on watching the scenery, time passed quickly in this silence, and soon they arrived at the destination Park Hyatt Hotel.

Park Hyatt is a five-star hotel, located in a prime location, with first-class service. Businessmen and politicians who come here on business trips often choose to stay in this hotel, and Chu Xu, who Murong Jiu and Shao Qihan want to meet, lives in this hotel. here.

As soon as the two of them walked to the huge glass door, a clever doorman opened the door with a bow, and after entering the hotel, a waiter with a pretty face asked softly.

"Welcome to our store. Would you like to stay or have a meal?"

"Dine." Shao Qihan said concisely, "Box 308."

The originally very polite waiter became more humble after hearing this, and she said with a proper smile on her face: "Please go this way, Mr. Xu has been waiting for you for a long time."

Obviously Chu Xu is a regular customer here, otherwise the waiter would not have said this in such a familiar tone.

But compared to this, Murong Jiu cared more about the box number.

Park Hyatt is a comprehensive large hotel. The upper floor is for accommodation for guests, the lower floor is for catering and entertainment, and the structure in the middle is very ingenious. The first and second floors are Chinese and Western restaurants, the third floor is private boxes, the fifth and sixth floors are Places for leisure and entertainment, and above all accommodation rooms.

For a private room, the number of the room number means the asking price, and 308 is the most expensive of the seven private rooms. Not only is it expensive, but it also depends on your status. Ordinary nouveau riche absolutely cannot reserve this private room under their own name.

It seemed that Chu Xu was indeed that "Xu Zhu".

Murong Jiu thought this way, not because he didn't trust Shao Qihan, but because he had to consider too much as a superior - if what he saw today was only his former classmates, then naturally he didn't need to think too much.

While Murong Jiu was pondering the identity of the other party, the waiter in front of him had already pushed open the door of the box, and leaned slightly to wait for Shao Qihan and him to enter.

"Yo, old Shao, you're here."

Before Murong Jiu saw Chu Xu's people, he heard his unique cold voice.

Due to the angle of view, Chu Xu didn't see Murong Jiu at first. After Shao Qihan took a step sideways into the box, Murong Jiu, who was blocked by him, showed his appearance.

Seeing Murong Jiu, Chu Xu's soft face showed a look of surprise, he quickly stood up from the seat, glanced at Shao Qihan calmly, and then squeezed out a strange smile, his hoarse voice was strange He said: "Our famous President Murong is also here, haha, I've heard his name for a long time!"

Murong Jiu shook hands with him with a normal expression and sat down.

With a sullen face, Chu Xu buttoned the round table with seven or eight dishes of delicacies, and said to the waiter who had been standing by the door: "What? Didn't you see one more person? Why don't you bring the menu to President Murong?" Order?" After speaking, he smiled and said to Murong Jiu: "I'm really sorry, I thought it was only Lao Shao, so I won't neglect you."

Murong Jiu pretended that he couldn't hear the meaning of the other party's words, and said with a smile: "I was the one who was abrupt, how could Mr. Xu be negligent?"

Shao Qihan looked unhappy, he frowned and said, "Okay, today we're going to talk about business. Chu Xu, you also know Ajiu, so just talk slowly if you have anything."

Chu Xu's face froze, and he said insincerely: "What Lao Shao said is that it's been a long time since we haven't seen each other for a long time."

Murong Jiu secretly sneered in his heart, he and Chu Xu hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Back in high school, Chu Xu was a classmate of him and Shao Qihan. Although Chu Xu was not born in one of the four major families, the Chu family can be regarded as a big family. Moreover, he is independent and quite wise. Shang is a man of the hour in the school.

Such a person, who was originally the same as Murong Jiu, but for some reason after Chu Xu and Shao Qihan got acquainted, he always got into trouble with Murong Jiu for no reason. Although a dog bites a person, there is no need to bite back, but if the dog keeps biting people, there is no reason not to beat it up, so Murong Jiu has sex with Chu Xu directly, and the relationship between the two is not good. Can.

Now it seems that the rift created when I was young has not been repaired because of the passage of time, but it has been torn apart because of the goodbye.

Murong Jiu thought about this, but he didn't show it at all, he just smiled formulaically.

Chu Xu played with the chopsticks in his hand and didn't speak. The scene became cold and even more embarrassing.

To some extent, Shao Qihan, who can be called a middleman, is not someone who intends to greet and rescue. He completely ignores the strange atmosphere in the box, and asks straightforwardly: "Did you find out?"

Chu Xu smiled strangely. After looking at Murong Jiu, he tilted his head and said, "It was indeed found out, but I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"Let's just talk about it." Shao Qihan was a little impatient, he pressed Murong Jiu's thigh with his hand under the dining table, and said in a cold voice, "Ajiu brought this matter up for investigation. So you don't have to worry about anything else."

Murong Jiu moved his legs a little uneasy.

"In this case, I hope President Murong won't be too surprised." Chu Xu picked up the black briefcase from the seat beside him, and said with a soft smile, "After all, this matter involves the late Mr. Murong."

He took out a stack of documents from his briefcase and handed it to Shao Qihan, among which were two old photos.

"It's an old-fashioned story. On the eve of the wedding, the man and his ex-girlfriend broke up. After the fiancee found out, she came to the door and had a big fight with her ex-girlfriend. As a result, the ex-girlfriend had a miscarriage. The fiancee thought that this was the end of the matter. Years ago, my girlfriend came to the door and said that she had her husband's child again, and then she was pissed off." Chu Xu touched his chin with his pale fingers, and his tone was funny. Chu Xu touched his chin with his pale fingers , said with a playful tone, he couldn't help looking at Murong Jiu with his eyes, and he looked at Murong Jiu with satisfaction after seeing the smile on the other party's face changed from being unable to maintain to becoming more and more stiff and gloomy. Shao Qihan carefully browsed the information.

"However, these are all rumors from more than 20 years ago. There is no absolute evidence, so I don't dare to conclude... But, looking at those two photos, it is enough to prove the relationship between Mr. Murong and Miss Bai." Chu Xu murmured and said to Shao Qihan.

Shao Qihan naturally saw the two photos clearly. The photos were a little old, and the corners were slightly yellowed. There was a string of numbers in the lower right corner of one of them, indicating that the photo was taken 24 years ago.

This photo is a group photo. There are about 20 young men and women on it. The most conspicuous of them is a handsome man and a beautiful woman standing in the center of the second row. The two are close together and smiling at the camera. Very happy.The man is naturally the young Murong Yi, but this woman is obviously not Murong Jiu's mother.

There is no time for another group photo, but in the photo, Murong Yi in a black suit seems to have a successful career, no longer the youthful youth, and the smiling woman with red lips snuggled up beside him looks Sexy and seductive, a black dress accentuated her figure unevenly. Although it has changed a lot, it is still possible to identify the same person in the same photo from the outline of the facial features.

Shao Qihan handed the two photos in his hand to Murong Jiu.

Murong Jiu's hands trembled slightly, and even the photos he took were trembling slightly.

24 years ago, it was the time when Murong Jiu's parents got married, and judging from the appearance of Murong Yi in the second photo, it is estimated that he was already born when the photo was taken.

This means that his father Murong Yi betrayed his mother no matter before or after marriage.

Murong Jiu closed her eyes, and asked softly, "What's the relationship between this woman and Bai Xiaoxi?"

Chu Xu avoided answering Murong Jiu's question. He almost gloated and said: "This woman is called Bai Huanjun, the illegitimate daughter of the Bai family of your four major families. When she was young, she was called a courtesan. There was a lot of connection, but it disappeared fourteen, 15 years ago."

"Let me ask you, is she related to Bai Xiaoxi, yes, what, what, relationship?" Murong Jiu suddenly opened his eyes, staring at Chu Xu with scarlet eyes.

The gloomy look in the other party's eyes was a little startled, but he immediately reacted and said sarcastically: "It seems that President Murong's etiquette is probably not good at learning!"

"Chu Xu!" Shao Qihan held down the angry Murong Jiu and let out a low shout. He looked at Chu Xu coldly and said, "That's enough, give me everything in moderation!"

Hearing this, Chu Xu's face turned blue and white, he folded his arms and looked at the two coldly, and squeezed out a cold and piercing word like a snake hissing from his throat: "Oh, the relationship between the two of you It's like before! Murong Jiu, you guessed right, the Bai Xiaoxi you're talking about is Bai Huanjun's daughter! Haha, I never imagined that the woman you're looking at is the daughter of your mother's rival in love, your father's illegitimate daughter , is your own sister! Let me tell you one more thing, it was Bai Huan-jun who went to Murong Yi to make a fuss and caused your mother to die early. If you don’t believe what I said, just ask the old man of Murong’s family Come on, haha, I'm so happy to see you looking like this now!"

The author has something to say:

Chu Xu is quite annoying.
