soul seeker

late summer.

"Well, wait a minute..." In the morning, Wu Han, who was about to go to the company, was stopped by Yun Miao as soon as he arrived at the door.

"What is it?"

"Child, child..." She lowered her head, stuttering in fear, "The child has been born for several months, and he hasn't given a name yet."

"Huh? Oh..." Really, the trouble is dead.Annoyed, he happened to see Wu Ci who was about to go back upstairs, "Let him get up, the eldest brother is like a father, he has also studied for several years, so it is okay to give him a name."

After saying that, he left.

"But..." Yun Miao, who felt something was wrong, did not dare to refute, so she had to go to Wu Ci after the ringing sound.

In the living room, Wu Ci looked at Yun Miao and asked, "Then what do you think?"

"Me? No way... It's okay to have a baby name, but I really can't think of a big name."

"Okay, um...can I tell you tomorrow?"

"Oh, yes." Yun Miao nodded.

This is something to think about...

The next morning, it was Wu Ci's first day to go to the company. He got up early, but before Yun Miao woke up, Wu Ci told the servant his name and asked the servant to wait for Yun Miao Get up and tell me.

"Remember to tell your aunt that the water is cold at two o'clock, and there will be no cold in your life."

"Oh, okay, I'll try to tell my aunt exactly."

"Then I'm going out."

19 is old.

In Chaohua Garden, Wu Zan sat next to a man in a long silk gown, "Oh, what a coincidence, Young Master Wang."

"Yo, isn't this the Second Young Master Wu? What a coincidence." He put down the melon seeds in his hand, turned around and cupped his fists at him, "Are you coming to the show too?"

"That's right, you can still sleep in the theater?" Wu Zai rolled up the sleeves of his gown twice, "By the way, I heard that you are getting engaged?"

"Yeah, my family saw that I was getting older and worried, so they made an appointment."

"Which family's lady?"

"It's not a famous family, Sen Hui from the Sen family."

"Oh."

"Hey, didn't you know each other since childhood?"

"Isn't that since I was a child, since I moved to Tianjin when I was ten years old, I lost contact, and we haven't seen each other for a long time. But...do you really want to marry her?" Wu Zai asked curiously, frowning.

"What's the matter? Is there something wrong with your expression?"

"Let me tell you," Wu Zan approached in a low voice, "Before her family, she proposed marriage to my cousin, Wu Ci, but was rejected. I heard that it was because of this girl, who didn't have a good style... He shook his head and curled his lips, "Oh, of course I just heard about it! Talk too much, watch a show."

"What show are you still watching!" The man stood up in a jerk, "Your cousin's home is my own, can there be a lie?! I'll go back and let my parents push it!"

"Hey? Is this okay? It's already booked and turned down. It's not good to go back and forth?"

"What's the matter! Just find a reason, anyway, I plan to study abroad, one year in advance." After speaking, he hurried out of Chaohua Garden.

And Wu Zan, who was left behind, watched the show with his chin in his hands, with a smug smile on his face.

Mori.

Sen Hui was scolded by her mother as soon as she came back from shopping.

"What the hell are you doing out there!"

"What's wrong! What! You have no nose or eyes when you come back!" Sen Hui also got angry and threw her bag on the sofa next to her.

"What are you talking about! Just now the Wang family came to retire their relatives! What did he say that his son suddenly didn't want to start a family so early, he wanted to start a career first, and wanted to study abroad. I felt something was wrong, so I went out to inquire. You know what you are doing now What a bad reputation! Who the hell are you hooking up with outside!"

"I don't have it! Someone must be chewing their tongues outside! Who, it's going to die, I know who it is..." Sen Hui thought about it, "It can only be him."

In the evening, Shaolu's house.

"Master, someone is looking for you." The servant knocked on the door of Wu Zan's room.

"Who is it?" Wu Zai opened the door and asked.

"Miss Senhui, you seem to be in a hurry."

"Oh... I see, you can tell her to come in." Wu Zan smiled.

"It's really rare to come to me on your own initiative. What's the matter?"

"What are you talking about? Are those rumors about Wu Zai you spread?" Sen Hui pointed to Wu Zai and asked.

"Oh, of course it's me. If I don't pass it on, I'll call you Mrs. Wang in a while, right? But why are you so anxious to get married? You're not an old girl in her 20s. If you hate marrying so much, you'll kill yourself. The value has been suppressed."

"You bastard!" Sen Hui walked over to give him a slap in the face, but it was in vain, and Wu Zai dodged backwards.

"Will you stay in my room longer? What will happen if it gets out? If you marry the eldest young master, you will come to hook up with the second young master?"

"Forget you! Just wait for me!" Sen Hui couldn't get angry, so she had to leave first.

After Wu Zan waited for her to leave, he burst out laughing, "Waiting, waiting, waiting to marry you."

Deep winter, night.Because of work, Wu Ci was the last one to get off work.

"It's snowing..." He stood at the door, watching the heavy snow, "Oh no, I forgot to bring my umbrella... Forget it, let's hurry home, it's so cold, it shouldn't be too wet."

As he spoke, he put his hands into the pockets of his coat, flinched, and trotted towards home.

But the snow was getting bigger and bigger, and the temperature was so low that my hands would freeze up within a minute or two of coming out.

He looked around, the snow was already thick, not to mention rickshaws, even pedestrians were few.

"Ah, so annoying..." He stretched out his red hands from the cold to turn up the collar of his coat to prevent the snow from being blown in.

When he put his hands back into his pockets and was about to continue walking against the wind, a hand holding an umbrella stretched out in front of him. The umbrella was very familiar, and the hand was no stranger.

"Why are you on the way every time I come back to find you, either in a daze or in such embarrassment."

Wu Ci followed his hand and looked at his face.

This face is no matter how time passes, as long as you see it, you can return to the smiling face at that time.

"What's the matter? It suddenly appeared again after so long."

The two of them walked forward holding an umbrella.

The street covered with snow blankets was so quiet that it seemed that only the frequency of each other's breathing could be heard.

"I came here because I had something to talk to you about. I want to go back to my hometown, and my job has been transferred. There is a branch school built there, and there is a shortage of manpower. Gui'er is not used to life here."

"Oh."

After the "oh", they didn't say anything until they reached the door of Wu's house.

"Goodbye."

Wu Ci looked at his gradually shrinking back and thought to himself, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see him in this life.

Thinking of this, the sad feeling spread to the nose and eyes.

There are two rivers running through the frozen red face.

23 is old.

night.Wu Ci closed the book and glanced at the time, it was almost eleven o'clock.

"It's almost time for bed." He walked out of the study, ready to go back to his room.

I just ran into Wu Han who just came back at this time.

"You came back so late?"

"Ah."

Recently Wu Han always comes home very late, and his complexion is not good, he seems to be preoccupied.

the next day.As soon as Wu Ci came home, Mother Xu greeted her and said, "Second Master called at noon today to ask you to have dinner."

"uncle?"

Since Shaozhen's death, Shaolu's family rarely came to the Wu mansion, so Shaolu's invitation made Wu Ci vaguely feel that something was going to happen again.

"I see." Wu Ci put on the coat he had just taken off, and went out to Shaolu's house.

In the living room of Shaolu's house, in front of the long table.

"Wu Ci, do you know what your father has been up to lately?" Shaolu stood up and picked up the red wine bottle to add some to Wu Ci's goblet.

"I don't know, he doesn't have the habit of discussing work with others."

"Isn't it going to be your mother's memorial day in a while?" Shaolu sat back, "It means that you will be able to inherit the shares on that day."

"Really? It's been four years, oh...so you mean Dad is busy with the shares."

"Well," Shaolu nodded, "he is negotiating with several other shareholders to acquire their shares. You also know that what you inherit is 30.00%, and what he has is also 30.00%, so you two have the same amount Now, the only thing he can call an advantage is the title of general manager. However, the other small shareholders are not stupid, and they took advantage of this opportunity to raise the price vigorously."

"It's no wonder his complexion is always ugly recently. So, today I was specially invited to have dinner, and Wu Zan and aunt were not allowed to participate. Is there something you want to discuss with me?"

"Ah, are you really much smarter than my stupid son?" Shaolu slapped the table and laughed, "How about we join forces? I know, the property that my sister left you is a lot of money, and half of the small shareholders It's my father who is your grandfather's old acquaintance, if you buy the shares, they will definitely give face, after all, they also know that once Wu Han really becomes the master, they will be eliminated one by one sooner or later."

"Well, that's a pretty good idea." Wu Ci shook the goblet with a smile and took a sip, "But uncle, in this plan, it seems...it doesn't matter if you are there or not?"

"Hey? I, I can contact you for you." Shaolu who heard this question obviously didn't think about it, and his face was astonished.

"Contact? Uncle, don't forget that I'm not a foreigner. Okay," Wu Ci stood up, "I've almost eaten, and it's getting late, so I'm leaving."

After returning home, Wu Ci has been waiting for Wu Han in the living room.

As soon as he came back, Wu Ci walked up, "If you're not very tired, can you go to the study with me? I have something to talk to you about."

Wu Han frowned and looked at him, what the hell was he trying to do? "Well, let's go."

In the study, Wu Han was sitting at the desk, and Wu Ci was sitting on the sofa opposite him, and said with a smile: "In three months, it will be Mother's Memorial Day, so come back that day."

Wu Han, who thought he would say something that surprised him, heaved a sigh of relief, "No time, the company is very busy recently, and it will probably be busy until the end of the year."

"Let's make time as much as possible. After I inherit the shares, they will be transferred to your name immediately. If you're not here, the lawyer will go to you. It's too troublesome."

"Why did you do that?" Wu Han was puzzled and surprised, "It won't do you any good."
