gentle reunion

"It's pretty good." Tang Judao, "I just talked about Kong Xichen. I was talking nonsense. Xu Zan and him should have nothing to do. I remember that last time in Jifang Town, when Xichen came to perform, Xu Zan wasn't interested in watching it. You went to visit the old town."

Lan Tianran: "He is not very interested in those activities. People who don't know him may think that he likes to be lively, but he is not. He is very quiet most of the time."

Tang Ju said with a smile: "That's not necessarily true, maybe he's accommodating you."

Lan Tianran thought for a while and said, "Probably not, but I will pay more attention."

The two didn't talk much about Xu Zan, and soon went to talk about business matters.

Talking until ten o'clock, Tang Ju said: "It's almost time, let's go, now you are not single, you have to go home early. Uh, are you and Xu Zan living together now?"

Lan Tianran nodded.

Tang Ju: "Oh, it's pretty good."

—Besides that, he had nothing else to say.

But when it was time to part, Tang Ju said again: "Am I the first to know?"

"Huh?" Lan Tianran looked at him puzzled.

Tang Ju: "Minmin and the others know that you are with Xu Zan?"

"Minmin knows, others don't."

Tang Ju was quite satisfied: "Then I'm the second to know."

On the way back, Lan Tianran said to the driver, Old Wu, "Let's go to Hengsheng."

When he arrived near Hengsheng, he looked towards Long Yuen Building. There were still lights on on some floors. He estimated the floor where Infinity Technology was located, and saw that the windows at the corners were bright. That should be Xu Zan's office. .

He called Xu Zan: "Why are you still working overtime?"

Xu Zan: "Are you home? I'll be right back."

Lan Tianran: "Come down, I'm downstairs in Langyuan."

"……okay."

The window of Xu Zan's office went dark, and after a while, Xu Zan came down, and he was alone.

Lan Tianran realized one thing, Xu Zan was the last one to leave their company today.

Is it because he didn't go back, so he didn't want to go back?

Xu Zan approached, hugging Lan Tianran passionately as if reunited after a long absence.

Lan Tianran wanted to kiss him a little bit, but when he saw the security guard watching them, he just patted Xu Zan on the back.

After Lao Wu drove the car to the door of his house, Lan Tianran and Xu Zan got out of the car together, and then Lan Tianran entered the password to open the door. Suddenly, he understood why Xu Zan didn't come back first—he hadn't told Xu Zan the password at home.

He turned around and said, "Remember the password, and enter the fingerprints later. I will talk to the property manager tomorrow and ask them to enter you and your car into the access control system."

Xu Zan: "...Oh."

Lan Tianran: "Next time I forget something, just talk to me..."

Xu Zan smiled and hugged him to cover his mouth. Facing the sudden attack, Lan Tianran didn't freeze or get nervous, but was a little funny, because his brain understood the current scene like this: your big pet made a mistake Finally, in order to avoid blame, she forcibly jumped on you and acted like a baby.

The two kissed for a while, and when they stopped, Lan Tianran insisted on continuing the previous words: "——just talk to me directly."

Xu Zan said helplessly, "Okay, I see."

In the afternoon of the next day, Xu Zan received a call from Tian Tian, ​​asking him to go to the bathing center, saying that he had brought him a special product from a certain place.

Speaking of special products, Xu Zan remembered that he hadn't finished eating the salted salted duck and sauced board fish before, so he should take a little less special products this time.

When he arrived, he realized that there were no special products, Tian Tian just found an excuse to call him over, in fact, someone wanted to see him.

Walking into the hot spring to take a bath, Xu Zan saw a person soaking in the water with a small towel covering his face, leaning against the pool wall, as if he had fallen asleep.

"Boss Tan?" Xu Zan sat down on the deck chair on the shore.

The people in the pool took off the towels on their faces, and it was Boss Tan of the Lixiao Information Consulting Company.

He smiled and said, "Boss Xu, you are here."

Xu Zan: "Why don't you just call me if you need something? Why is it so complicated?"

Boss Tan looked around, but there was no one there. He said, "It's better to be more cautious."

Xu Zan: "..."

Boss Tan: "President Xu, have you heard about Kong Xichen?"

Xu Zan nodded: "You heard that too?"

This Boss Tan has a wide range of opportunities.

Boss Tan: "Recently, I have paid special attention to him. When I found out that he was taken by the police for investigation, I was almost scared to pee."

What are you afraid of Kong Xichen being investigated?Xu Zan didn't understand why.

"Wait for me a while." Boss Tan got up from the pool, went to the dressing room to put on a bathrobe, and returned with a mobile phone in a waterproof bag.

He played a long recording for Xu Zan - the recording of the phone calls between Wang Ting and Lan Tianran, Wang Cong and Sun Zhe.

Xu Zan smiled when he heard Lan Tianran's voice, stopped smiling when he came to Wang Cong, and frowned when he came to Sun Zhe - from Wang Ting's tone, it was Sun Zhe who tried to design him to take drugs back then?

In other words, half of his resentment towards Wang Ting should be transferred to Sun Zhe?

Xu Zan looked at Boss Tan: "Where did you get this recording?"

Boss Tan told him about Kong Xichen asking him to buy pinhole cameras and bugs.

Xu Zan was stunned: "Last time you said that an impulsive young man approached you to buy some wiretapping equipment for revenge. Is this young man Kong Xichen?"

At that time, he also suggested that Boss Tan should keep an eye on the young man, such as eavesdropping on what the other party was doing.He looked at Boss Tan's phone that had just finished playing the recording - it seemed that Boss Tan had followed his advice.

Boss Tan: "Yes. When I first heard these recordings, I thought it would be better for me to pretend I didn't know anything..."

He probably spoke quickly, but after he finished speaking, he showed an embarrassed smile, and added: "It's not that I'm afraid of getting into trouble, it's that those conversations are more private, and I shouldn't have known about them."

Xu Zan and Lan Tianran—the information on the Internet shows that this Lan Shao has an extraordinary identity—are together, Xu Zan seems to be suspected of taking drugs, and a rich second-generation male surnamed Wang wants to drug a male celebrity. It's better not to know.

Xu Zan said very understandingly: "It's better to pretend that you don't know. You continue to talk."

Boss Tan: "But I was worried that something might happen, so I paid attention to Kong Xichen. Next, the police came looking for Kong Xichen. I quickly asked my acquaintances why the police were looking for him, and then I heard that the rich second generation surnamed Wang had an accident. Is hospitalised."

"To be honest, I was really panicked at the time. I was afraid that he would really do something stupid, and that the police would track me down. I sold the equipment to him. If I had to be investigated, I might be considered a criminal. accomplice."

Xu Zan thought, your "level" is much lower than mine, and you are just an accomplice. I was afraid of being considered the mastermind.

Later, he thought Kong Xichen was innocent, so he was relieved.

But now I am worried again, and feel that I have the risk of becoming the mastermind again.

——The key to his previous judgment of Kong Xichen's innocence was that he thought the medicine in the drink was given by the royal court.

Now he doesn't think so.Kong Xichen had already overheard the information that Wang Ting was going to drug him, so it was impossible for him to go to Wang Ting's house unprepared.

In fact, if you think about it, it is a bit strange for Kong Xichen to bring two glasses of drinks to Wang Ting's house, because Wang Ting's house cannot be short of drinks, but if there is something wrong with the drinks he brought, then this matter is easy to understand.

Boss Tan said happily: "Fortunately, there was no danger."

Xu Zan shook his head in his heart, the danger hadn't passed yet...

No, it might have passed.

Kong Xichen was not found out, not because he was lucky, and certainly not because he acted carefully, but because Yue Zhi intervened to erase the traces that might cause more trouble.

Xu Zan is in a complicated mood. Now he has the same idea as Boss Tan who doesn't want to know too much: he wants to pretend that he doesn't know.

Only when people are a little confused can they live an easy life.

Knowing too much is a burden.

Xu Zan looked at Boss Tan: "Why didn't you continue to pretend that you didn't know anything, but chose to tell me about it?"

Boss Tan: "Because this matter is not over yet."

Yesterday, Boss Tan received a commission, this time the commission was related to a woman named Lu Bing.

Xu Zan suddenly realized, Lu Bing, isn't that his fucking name?

Boss Tan: "I didn't think much of it at first, but after a little research based on the place of origin and other information given to me by the client, I found that this Ms. Lu is actually your mother."

He was taken aback at the time, why is it related to Xu Zan?

Boss Tan stated his position: "I immediately rejected the other party's commission on the grounds that I only accept local orders in Mingcheng."

Xu Zan twitched the corner of his mouth lightly: "What does the other party want to entrust you with?"

Boss Tan: "Let me find a way to approach her. As for what to do after approaching her, the client didn't say anything at first, and I didn't want to inquire at the beginning."

Xu Zan: "And then?"

"Then I suddenly discovered another thing, so I forgot to inquire about his purpose of looking for your mother." What Boss Tan discovered at the time was: the client's voice was very familiar, and he seemed to have heard it in some special place.

He recalled all the things related to this client, remembered that the other party had asked him to stare at Kong Xichen, and then remembered that there was a person whose voice was very similar to the other party's in the recording Kong Xichen tapped.

He suddenly became anxious, feeling that he had strayed into a field that should not be touched.

——Xu Zan can't afford to offend him, Wang Ting, Lan Tianran and others are obviously also people he can't offend, and he probably can't offend this client who pays close attention to Xu Zan.

Xu Zan smiled: "It's not easy for you. You have never known the identity of this client?"

Boss Tan nodded: "He is very careful. He has not revealed his identity. He didn't even use his mobile phone number when he called me."

Xu Zan: "His name is Sun Zhe, the vice president of Dongfeng Capital, nothing special, you don't have to be afraid."

Boss Tan smiled wryly.

Xu Zan: "I'm curious, why didn't you continue to help him with things, but chose to tell me these things?"

Boss Tan: "In Kong Xichen's recording, that young master Wang and Sun Zhe mentioned drug use while chatting. I think they are not good people, and it is too dangerous to continue to associate with them."

Xu Zan thought to himself, if you want to be safe, the safest way is not to get involved in our affairs.

Moreover, Boss Tan once helped Sun Zhe trap him—it was the time when Xiang Xiang and Yue Hong were caught by mistake. It was not safe to do that kind of thing.

Xu Zan felt that apart from not wanting to offend him and thinking that his side was more just, Boss Tan turned to him for another important reason: he felt that his side was more profitable.

The origin of this benefit is that Xu Zan once suggested to Boss Tan to open an information security protection company.

Boss Tan felt that this matter was reliable and promising, and he wanted Xu Zan to invest in him. He had just mentioned it to Xu Zan a while ago. Although Xu Zan did not agree to him, he did not explicitly reject him either.

In this way, Xu Zan's habit of "being kind to others" brought him "blessings".
