August osmanthus is full of yellow branches.

Compared with two years ago, Jiangyun City has not changed much.

It has been more than a month since the results of the college entrance examination came out, but in the coffee shop, there are only a lot of high school students wearing noise-cancelling headphones and bowing their heads to study.

The proprietress smiled and chatted with the young people who were looking at the computer in front of them: "Most of them are prospective high school seniors, and a few are planning to repeat their studies. Sometimes looking at them, I feel that I am several years younger."

"But you are very young." The other party looked away from the computer screen and raised it with a smile.

It was a face intervening between a teenager and a young man, extremely pleasing to the eye, with distinct features, warm and strong eyes, porcelain white skin lining the pupils of the eyes extremely black, smooth contour lines, deer-like pupils, like It is depicted in the painting.

It's just that there is a very small star-shaped mark on the eyebrow at a close distance. At first glance, it looks like a beautiful pattern, but when you look closely, you can see that it grows with the skin.

Although I have been chatting with this person all morning, every time I see that face, I can't help but take a deep breath. The proprietress coughed and asked, "Your brother hasn't come yet?"

Li Duoyang checked the time, it was time to get off work at this point.

He picked up his cell phone and made a call.

The voice over there was a bit noisy, it didn't seem like it was in the company, the other party's voice was smiling: "Good boy? Why did you call suddenly?"

Li Duoyang: "Brother, are you off work yet?"

The other end of the phone paused: "There is a drinking party, why are you asking this?"

Just as Li Duo was about to say it's okay, the other party said tactfully, "Where are you?"

After thinking about it, he still said truthfully: "I'm back to Jiang Yun."

"...Why didn't you tell me in advance? Stay at Qinghe for a few more days, and I'll pick you up."

"Grandma said that you are very busy recently, I came here whenever I wanted, and forgot that you will have entertainment."

Li Huai started his own business during his college years, and his investment was very successful. After entering the circle, he met the successor of the Hejia Group in City B. Later, he seized the opportunity and cooperated with the other party to build a small market. The journey went smoothly and he has not yet graduated. Already worth hundreds of millions.I returned to Jiangyun last year and started working in the familiar field of commercial real estate.

Li Huai's new company is located in an office building near this cafe.

"Are you near the company?" The other party seemed to be a roundworm in his stomach, and his voice suddenly sank, "Don't lie, or I will ask grandma directly."

Li Duoyang sneered, and hummed: "I played online in the cafe here for a while, and it was fine at first. If you are not in the company, I will go back first."

The other side asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

Li Duoyang said: "Not yet, I'll go back and eat."

Li Huai was silent for a moment, and said with a smile: "How can I let you go for nothing, I'll ask my assistant to pick you up, and play in my office for half an hour, and my side is almost over..."

"You are busy with your work, no need..."

"No need? There is a Hunan restaurant nearby. The chef is very good. Come back and take you to eat."

"……OK then."

After hanging up the phone, Li Duoyang packed up the computer and put it in his backpack. After sitting for 2 minutes, the assistant his brother mentioned trotted over and took him up with a smile.

Li Duoyang followed her all the way, met several employees, one of them looked at him curiously, Li Duoyang looked directly at him, and the other party immediately turned his head in embarrassment.

Not long after, I arrived at Li Huai's office.

The secretary came over and asked him, "Would you like coffee or tea?"

After drinking coffee all morning, it was already refreshing enough, Li Duoyang asked, "Are there any popsicles?"

Some time ago, I took care of my sick grandma in Qinghe City for a week, accompanied by health care, and I haven't eaten cold food for a long time.

The other party was taken aback, and asked with a smile, "Do you want ice cream?"

Li Duoyang touched his nose and whispered, "Yes, thank you."

"Chocolate is okay?"

"Yes yes, but with vanilla?"

"Yes, wait a moment."

The secretary suppressed a laugh, looked at the assistant over there, and muttered softly, "I used to think Mr. Li's filters were too heavy, but today I found out that his brother is even more fun than he said!"

"I don't know, I just look at the face haha..."

After the secretary brought the ice cream, he closed the door with a smile and went out.

Li Duoyang was the only one in the huge office, and it was uncomfortably quiet. He didn't touch the computer on the desk, took out his computer and turned it on, chose a movie at random, and ate ice cream while watching it.

Halfway through eating, there was a knock on the door outside.

Li Duoyang said softly: "Please come in."

As soon as the door opened, there were several men in casual clothes. One of them looked familiar. Li Duoyang took a look and found that it was an employee who was staring at him on the way here not long ago. He didn't know why.

"I said it! You read it right, it's Li Huai brother!" the man said loudly.

As soon as these words came out, the rest of the people laughed and strode over.

Li Duoyang stood up cautiously immediately.

The man who took the lead smiled and said, "It's true, it hasn't changed much, the baby fat on the face is completely gone, it looks like it's enlarged in proportion!"

"Who said it hasn't changed? I think it has become more handsome! I can catch up with his brother!"

"It's really handsome. I didn't expect him to grow so tall...Yangyang, do you remember us?"

Li Duoyang was stunned for a while, and after a while, he finally remembered these people.

I used to go to school in Jiangyun City, and once I broke my leg while playing skateboard, and later I went out to play with my brother's classmates. Some of them were colleagues at the time, and the others also had a vague impression. Most of Li Duoyang Saw it on my brother's video call...

"So it's you," he bent his eyes and pursed his lower lip again, "I'm sorry, I just remembered."

"Hahaha, it's really hard for you to remember these popular faces! You must have recognized a handsome guy like me a long time ago, right?"

"No……"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

This group of people came here to torment the younger brother of an old classmate, and they were about to make trouble with him again, when the previous secretary came in with a smile.

"Boss Li said that my younger brother has a habit of taking a nap. If you keep making trouble, he won't have time to sleep."

Several people left reluctantly, and one of them waved to him with a grin before leaving.

Li Duoyang also waved his hands. After such a commotion, the memories of going out with his brother and these classmates to play gradually emerged. When he thought about it, it seemed like it happened yesterday.

But it has been two or three years.

The secretary followed closely and closed the door.

Li Duoyang was not in the mood to watch movies anymore, he turned off the video, took out a thick notebook from his schoolbag, picked up the pen on the table, and began to write the to-do list for this week.

1. Go home for a general cleaning;

2. Go to the pharmacy to buy xx Jiangyun City's old-fashioned potion and send it to my mother...

Before "3" was written, footsteps sounded outside the door.

Li Duoyang thought it was Li Huai, and just about to get up, he heard the secretary and someone outside talking with a smile.

He is a new employee of a certain department, and he should be an old acquaintance with that secretary, and the two chatted and gossiped familiarly.

The office is soundproofed, but the people outside seem to be unaware that the door is not closed tightly, so they just lower their voices and talk.

Li Duoyang could clearly hear their conversation.

The person who just arrived seems to have worked in Pei's Group before, and after a few words about the troubles at work recently, he mentioned Pei's again: "But it can't be compared with the pressure when I was in Pei's last year. I'm tired for a while. , the boss is at least normal, and everyone gets along more easily..."

"Pei's leadership is not normal? I haven't heard you say it before."

"Isn't it abnormal? How should I put it... At the beginning of last year, there was a big change in Pei's senior management?"

"I've heard that... Mr. Pei made his son empty. It was rumored outside, and there was a lot of internal gossip. It was said that Mr. Pei had an illegitimate child outside, and he was fascinated by the illegitimate child, so he deliberately planned to give his son to him." ..."

"Hahaha... That's because he watched too many TV dramas. Pei Jiansheng did marginalize his own son, but having an illegitimate child is ridiculous! Pei Jiansheng hasn't had any gossip since his wife passed away. That’s right. By the way, the out-of-print land in the north of the main urban area was acquired by the Pei Group for more than 60 billion yuan last year. It was big news in the industry at that time, do you remember?”

"Of course I remember! At that time, the real estate market ushered in a big turning point, and the land is still rising. It is said that it is the most rapid increase in recent years. It seems that the several big projects that Pei's rotted in his hands last year have all been revitalized. Right... But this kind of hot-blooded news happens every few years, what does it have to do with their father and son's melons?"

"It's a big deal! Those real estate stocks that are about to rot in his hands are created by Pei Jiansheng's unsatisfactory son. I just want to laugh when I say this. The vision and the decisions made later are really stinky. name……"

"You want to say that last year the plot of land in the main city was purchased by Mr. Pei himself..."

"It's true, but not all," the man laughed. "It may be that his son is a disaster star. In fact, since two years ago, Pei Jiansheng has taken his underage grandson to attend some important events from time to time. Many The auction will also bring him..."

"What's wrong? It's normal to bring juniors to adapt to this atmosphere in advance, right?"

"That's not adaptation," said the other party in a low voice, with an inconceivable tone, "I heard that he directly let his grandson make decisions with full power, and as long as he doesn't go out of line, he won't interfere. But do you think the land last year, in Wasn't that out of the ordinary enough?"

It was quiet for two seconds, and then there was a sound of breathing: "Don't tell me that it was his grandson who happened last year..."

"It depends on what you think, but some people say that Pei Jiansheng used the little prince as a puppet, deliberately creating a confused illusion to confuse the bidding opponents."

"I think it is! Dong Pei's grandson is only this year, and he was still in the second year of high school last year. How could it be..."

"People are really different," the man sighed, with a serious tone, "I met that kid at the company last year, he didn't look like a kid at all, and I don't know how to raise him, his aura is even more overwhelming than his grandfather's. Back then, the leader of the department next door said a few words to him. His statement about the future trend of the industry was weird, but it was also accurate. Many things have happened one after another this year... I now suspect that he is not Pei Youping's own. What a brain! I have to say that there is such a thing as talent in this world, and I heard that I have done well in my studies, and I seem to be admitted to a B university this year.

"...Then Mr. Li is no longer an alumnus?" He laughed, "However, Pei's development has been getting better and better in the past two years. Is the company's atmosphere really as scary as you said?"

"I don't know now. I'm talking about last year. Everyone knows about the chaos! At that time, Pei Youping hadn't left, and Pei Jiansheng was always hesitant to adjust the direction. Damn... To be honest, it was like a messed up harem. My leader at that time happened to be the younger brother of Boss Pei's lover. Isn't that when you resigned?"

"Pei Youping really left the Pei family? Dear son, are you willing to leave?"

"Didn't he get caught after being reported for whoring/prostitution some time ago? After he was detained, he seemed to be completely thrown abroad by Mr. Pei, so why can't he let it go? This is also true for the Pei Group. Good thing..." As he spoke, he drank another sip of coffee and started gossiping about other things, "It is said that the little prince has an incredible marriage. Looking at the stack of buffs, I can't even imagine waiting for him to take over Pei Pei completely. What is the scene after Shi?"

"Whose family? The Xu family? I heard that Mr. Pei and the Xu family have a good relationship, or is it the Shen family in City B? Last year in City B, I heard about the possible marriage between the Shen family and the Pei family. All of a sudden, no one will pass on these things, and I can't even tell if it's true or not..."

"I'm not sure about this, maybe it hasn't been decided yet?"

"..."

The voices outside gradually died down, and then, Li Duoyang heard the sound of footsteps coming from far and near, and walked quickly.

"Boss Li." The two said at the same time.

"Ah."

The door was pushed open, Li Duoyang finished writing the last to-do item "Go to Pei's house to divorce the marriage", closed the notebook and looked up, "Brother."

The visitor was tall and powerful, and his youthful face had changed in the past few years. His sharp eyes softened a little after seeing the young man at the desk. After drinking recently, he unbuttoned his shirt and finally A button on the top is breathable, and he teased him: "Is everyone going to raid?"

Li Duoyang packed his shoulders and got up: "I will pass by your company when I go home, so I just wanted to see you first, because you insisted that I come up."

Li Huai: "It's your brother who doesn't know what to do."

Li Duoyang: "..."

Li Huai smiled and stopped teasing him: "Go, I'll take you out for dinner."

On the way from the office to the garage, Li Duoyang could smell the alcohol on Li Huai's body, and he also knew that the other party was at the drinking party not long ago, so he must have eaten, he was a little worried: "Can you still drink? "

"Why can't I eat? I didn't eat much, I just drank, so I happened to go to that restaurant to drink some sober soup." Li Huai said, rubbing his temples.

Li Duoyang didn't say much, he opened the window and told the driver in front to drive slower.

When the summer wind blew in, Li Huai's expression relaxed a bit, and he squinted and asked him what he had been playing during this time.

Li Duoyang spoke slowly, when he was waiting for the traffic lights, there was a car in front of him with a wedding company advertisement, he subconsciously raised his eyes and glanced.

Li Huai asked: "Why didn't you say anything?"

Li Duoyang said: "Brother, I'm going to find a suitable time to go to Pei's house."

The other party was taken aback, then frowned and said, "Do you still remember what you promised me back then?"

Li Duoyang nodded and said, "I remember, but Pei Shiyi and I still have baby relatives..."

Li Huai said: "No one cares about that doll..."

"But his future lover and lover will care about it," Li Duoyang said in a neutral voice, "Since he has a marriage partner now, the previous marriage contract should be canceled. Even if no one takes the child's relationship seriously, but the two families did not take it seriously at the beginning. It’s a deal, and some people in the circle know about it, and if his partner cares about this, he will react in his heart, so it’s better to formally retire as soon as possible, and avoid gossip in the future.”

In the original book, in fact, the divorce was not the key to Li Duoyang's ending, but the divorce and the imposition of humiliation when the male protagonist was down and out.

But now the Pei family is not only not down and down, it is even stronger than it was two or three years ago. The male protagonist Pei Shiyi also has a marriage partner who is said to be very well-matched. Then, there is no better time than this time to divorce the engagement.

Li Huai pressed his finger bones against his temples and said: "Okay, I will accompany you when the time comes."

Li Duoyang shook his head: "Don't, you had conflicts with Pei's family back then, I'm afraid you'll have a lot to say if you go there, I'd better go alone, I'll just make it clear to Grandpa Pei in person, just a few words."

Li Huai glanced at him.

Li Duoyang looked out of the window with normal expression.

There were dark clouds outside the window, and the wind picked up. Li Huai closed the car window and said, "You just know what to do."
