Chapter 164 You Think You Are Raising Pigs
After all, Shang Qichao would not stay overnight at his son's house.
Watching the black business G-Class driving away from the black lacquered electronic gate, Shen Chaoxi exhaled a breath of hot air, and when he was about to put his hands into his cotton coat pockets, he was wrapped by the man's warm big hands.
At night, the temperature outside was close to zero degrees, but Shen Chaoxi's heart was very warm.
"What did you do this afternoon?" Shang Jianghan held her hands, rubbing them and asked.
He spent the entire afternoon in the conference room dealing with group matters and had no time to go upstairs to see her.
"What else can I do? Review the materials for the postgraduate entrance examination."
His hands were warmed up and Shen Chaoxi put his face close to them.
Under the light, the girl's nose was red, and the white air she exhaled mixed together when she spoke.
"Well, so good! Come in."
The two held hands and went into the room.
Shen Chaoxi remembered that she had only half cleared the dishes in the kitchen, so she rolled up her sleeves.
"Call Auntie over." Shang Jianghan leaned against the kitchen door and watched the girl tie an apron around her waist.
It’s not like he had never done housework before, so Shen Chaoxi directly refused.
"It's already this late, there are only a few dishes, I can just clean them up."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Jianghan's cell phone rang.
After dinner, he turned on the ringer of his cell phone and a call came in.
He took a look, hesitated for a moment and answered the call.
He didn't avoid Shen Chaoxi either.
The call was from Bai Jinyu.
"My father just left, and I have already made everything clear to him." Shang Jianghan's voice was flat.
Shen Chaoxi turned on the faucet, and the sound of the water somewhat covered up the voice of the man talking on the phone.
After washing the dishes and wiping the kitchen counter, Shen Chaoxi turned around but could not find Shang Jianghan.
The door of the study on the first floor was open, and voices could be heard coming from inside.
Shen Chaoxi tidied up the items on the sofa, coffee table and tea table and went upstairs.
When they went to bed at night, Shang Jianghan was as usual, and neither of them mentioned the phone call just now.
The next day, Shang Jianghan went to work as usual. Shen Chaoxi reviewed the materials for the whole morning and took a look at the news about the Bai family online. It was still on the front page, and the amount of broadcasts on major websites was gradually increasing.
The stock even hit the limit down at the opening!
After lunch, Shen Chaoxi felt a little irritable and felt uneasy for no reason.
She simply drove to the Chuangcheng District villa.
Before leaving, Shen Chaoxi called Yao Chun and found out that Zhong Hongguang was at home today.
"Uncle Zhong, can the Bai family be saved this time?" Shen Chaoxi asked casually.
Zhong Hongguang is a man who can see Shen Chaoxi's concerns at a glance.
"It depends on how we save them."
Shen Chaoxi was silent for a moment, then asked, "What if we just leave it alone like now?"
"It can only last a week at most. It may have to declare bankruptcy unless a large amount of funds flow in. However, the Bai family's business has been a framework in the past few years. It is Lianzhong that supports it from behind. Otherwise, it would have collapsed long ago!"
Laymen are just watching the fun, they can't see it as clearly as Zhong Hongguang, a veteran in the business world.
Shen Chaoxi thought of the 15% stake and did not hide it from Zhong Hongguang.
Zhong Hongguang smiled coldly, "Bai Jinyu is crazy!"
Yes! Married women, with husbands and children, have to sell their shares in Lianzhong, which is booming, to fill the bottomless pit of the Bai family.
"Did you hear this with your own ears?" Zhong Hongguang found it hard to accept.
Shen Chaoxi pursed her lips and nodded.
"Uncle Zhong, if it really comes to this, will Lianzhong be affected?"
Zhong Hongguang almost didn't think about it. "Yes!" Then he said one thing.
"Since five years ago, Lianzhong has been interested in developing new energy projects and has invested billions. It will be officially put into operation by May 1 next year at the latest. If these fifteen shares are lost, not only will the billions be wasted, but all the efforts made in the early stages of the project will be in vain, and Jiang Han's appointment as Lianzhong's president will probably be delayed."
Shen Chaoxi stayed in Chuangcheng District until five in the afternoon and then drove to Lianmao Department Store.
After buying a down jacket for Shang Jianghan from the branded men's clothing store on the ninth floor of Lianmao Department Store, Shen Chaoxi called Yu Dong.
The call was not answered by Yu Dong, but by another secretary in the president's office.
Shen Chaoxi revealed his identity, and the other party's tone was naturally very good.
"Mr. Shang is in a meeting, which will end in about an hour. He has an appointment with the leaders of the Energy Bureau to have dinner at the Jingjue Hotel at 7pm."
Shen Chaoxi thanked him and hung up the phone.
At seven o'clock in the evening, a group of people surrounded Shang Jianghan and just stepped into the first floor lobby of Jingjue Hotel, when they were stopped by a girl in ordinary clothes.
Jingjue Hotel is a high-end club. Although they don't stop people from entering or leaving, they will still provide security for important people who come in.
Just like today, as soon as the girl approached, two security guards in black uniforms walked over quickly and tried to pull the girl's arms.
But before the security guard could reach the girl, he was stopped by several men in black coats.
Shang Jianghan pulled the girl to his side.
"Why are you here?"
The huge lobby on the first floor was filled with well-known celebrities, and there were few who didn't know the president of Lianzhong, but they were not qualified to approach him and talk to him.
Shen Chaoxi didn't feel like a blind pursuer, but he didn't expect to be almost caught as a bad guy.
"I went to Lianmao. Your secretary said you have a social event here in the evening. I hope we don't disturb you." The girl's eyes were dark and bright, and she leaned towards Shang Jianghan as she spoke.
Among a group of tall men who were estimated to be over 1.8 meters tall, Shen Chaoxi felt his own insignificance for the first time.
An arm was naturally placed on the girl's shoulder, and the cold aura softened.
"Don't bother me, we can go eat together."
As the two were talking, they had already entered the elevator, leaving dozens of suspicious eyes in the hall.
Before the front desk receptionist could recover from the shock, she saw Yu Dong coming back from upstairs.
"Delete the surveillance video just now, and check if there are any photos leaked. Find the person and deal with it privately."
"Yes, Mr. Yu!"
The dinner lasted an hour and ended quickly.
In fact, the people from the Resources Bureau came just to make themselves familiar to the public. This bureau is not important.
During the meal, Shang Jianghan did not introduce Shen Chaoxi. Although he glanced at the girl beside Mr. Shang from time to time, he did not dare to make bold guesses.
After coming out of Jingjue, Shang Jianghan didn't ask the driver to take him there, but got directly into Shen Chaoxi's car.
"Are you full?"
On the way, Shang Jianghan asked.
He was drunk and sat in the passenger seat in a law-abiding manner.
Shen Chaoxi was in a good mood and joked with him.
"Half of the food on the table went into my plate, and I'm still not full! Do you think you're raising pigs?"
The vehicle stopped consciously at the indicator light ahead. A jewelry advertisement was embedded in the huge LED light box on the side building. The light was soft, shining on the girl's fair face, as if it was coated with a layer of silver halo.
Shang Jianghan rested his right arm on the right car window, supported his head with his hand, and looked at the girl's soft profile in a rare lazy posture.
Feeling the burning and inquiring gaze, Shen Chaoxi turned to look at him.
"Drinking too much again?"
Shen Chaoxi asked deliberately. When someone at the table tried to stop him from drinking, he just nodded his appreciation.
The indicator light turned green, and the white Audi started slowly and then accelerated.
"Don't you know if you've drunk too much?" Shang Jianghan put away his laziness and untied his tie, "Why did you want to look for me?"
