Chapter 143 Graduation Gift
In the rearview mirror, Assistant Xu, who was good at observing people's expressions, said at the right time: "She had an outwork check-in this afternoon and was located at the South District Entrepreneurship Park. Maybe her phone was out of battery and turned off. I don't know if she has returned home yet."
"What are you going to do in the Entrepreneurship Park?" Chen Jingyuan asked with his eyes closed.
not sure.
But Xu Zhou was extremely efficient. After making several consecutive calls, he quickly got the result.
Report to the boss, "It is said that he went to the park with Director Zhuang to inspect the start-up team. They set off at 2 pm. Twenty minutes ago, Director Zhuang returned to the company to handle work, which means that the inspection ended at around 6 pm. It is estimated that he has returned to Xiangyue Mansion by now."
It sounds logical and there is nothing wrong with it.
After a while of silence, a man in the back seat said in a low voice, "Let's go to the Entrepreneurship Park first."
Xu Zhou remained silent.
It takes nearly 40 minutes to drive from here to the Entrepreneurship Park. It would take a lot of time to go around in such a big circle and then go back.
In order to rush back to celebrate the little girl's birthday, the husband compressed his schedule as much as possible and even turned down an important news interview.
But if we are not in a hurry now, how can we be sure that we are still in the Entrepreneurship Park?
Then I thought about it.
If the girl has returned to Xiangyue Mansion, she should charge her mobile phone in time.
Did you encounter any trouble on the way back?
Next, Xu Zhou called Liang Weining once every five minutes on average, and without exception, his phone was turned off the entire time.
There is no other way but to try my luck in the Entrepreneurship Park.
-
At seven forty, Liang Weining had the urge to break down the door. Her calmness was gone and anxiety was clearly visible on her face. She urged Shen Fu to call Xin Yunzhou to find out where he was.
In fact, I just called two minutes ago.
In order to calm the little girl, Shen Fu tried to divert her attention and asked her calmly: "Do you know why the company was named Xiwei?"
Sure enough, the figure pacing back and forth stopped. But after only two seconds, the cycle began again.
Liang Weining said indifferently: "There are a lot of technology companies with 'Xi' and 'Wei' in their names, so it's not surprising."
It's obvious that he didn't think deeply about it at all.
I just feel it's ordinary and not worth worrying about.
A trace of bitterness flashed through his heart, and Shen Fu smiled faintly: "It is indeed a very inconspicuous name, but when Xiwei was registered, there was no duplicate in the industrial and commercial system, which is enough to prove that it is unique."
After she finished speaking, the girl suddenly stopped.
The air was silent. He slowly turned around and looked somewhere.
"Lend me your cell phone." Liang Weining stretched out his hand to him.
Guessing whether she had made an appointment with friends to celebrate her birthday in the evening, Shen Fu didn't think much about it. After unlocking the screen, he handed the phone over.
Watch the little girl skillfully press a number and dial it.
No movement.
Mr. Chen’s personal card is usually set to reject unknown calls.
Can't get out.
Seeing her melancholy look, Shen Fu couldn't help but ask: "Who did you call?"
The answer is unexpected.
The girl said, "Boyfriend."
The atmosphere was stagnant.
Shen Fu looked at her in silence, trying to tell the truth from the falsehood in her words.
At this moment, the sound of keys opening the door came from outside the office, and Xin Yunzhou came in sweating profusely, apologizing to the two of them, "The traffic is so bad on the road, why don't I treat you tonight, and you can stay for dinner, and I'll let Shen Fu drive you later."
There is no time to eat.
"No need, senior brother. I have something urgent to do so I'll leave first. Let's make an appointment another day." Liang Weining picked up his bag and walked out in a hurry, without realizing how he was going to get back.
Naturally, someone thought it through.
Shen Fu picked up his cell phone and car keys, quickly followed the girl downstairs.
The car was parked in a temporary parking space on the left side of the building. It was conveniently located and the round trip took less than two minutes. Liang Weining was stopped by the other party before he even walked out of the park.
Shen Fu handed the exquisitely wrapped gift bag to her and said, "Happy birthday."
The air is still.
Looking at what was in his hand, the girl frowned.
"Thank you." She said, "Forget about the gift. I won't accept any reward without any merit."
"."
The rejection was expected, and Shen Fu had already thought of an excuse: "Don't get me wrong, this is just a favor from the company. There are investors who come to inspect, including Director Zhuang." Favor?
I understand her temperament, so I settle for the next best thing.
Shen Fu continued to add: "Besides, this time it was all thanks to your introduction, otherwise it would have been difficult for us to get in touch with this line. I don't want to owe you a favor, so I'll accept it and we'll be even from now on."
Both parties are cleared, a reason that cannot be refuted.
If she doesn't accept it, it means that she is still brooding over the breakup and seems like she is still thinking about the other person.
Seeing the girl's silence, Shen Fu unconsciously raised his hand, and like he used to do, he ruffled her hair soothingly, coaxing her to accept the gift.
But what is his identity now?
The movement stopped in mid-air, and he restrained himself and let the money hang down, then put it in his trouser pocket with pretended indifference.
With his eyes lowered in thought, Liang Weining did not notice the unusual behavior of the person in front of him just now. It was silent and some details were missed, which led to him being completely unprepared and suffering a lot for it.
I don’t have the habit of carrying cash when I go out. Once my cell phone runs out of battery, I can’t move.
Shen Fu helped her call a taxi online.
Just as he reached the roadside, a black business Maybach slowly pulled over. Liang Weining's eyes lit up when he inadvertently glanced at the license plate number.
The passenger window rolled down, revealing the driver's familiar face, looking very friendly.
The guess is that the boss saw her attendance clock-in location, and her phone was turned off, so he temporarily came to the Entrepreneurship Park.
Don't dare to dawdle.
Liang Weining quickly turned around and said to Shen Fu: "Thank you, cancel the order, my person is here to pick me up."
Before the latter could even come to his senses, he saw the girl walking up to him with familiarity, opening the back door and getting in.
Not the same one as last time.
After the car drove away, Xin Yunzhou walked leisurely to his side, looked at the online car-hailing car merging into the main road ahead, and sighed: "For so many years, you remembered the little girl's birthday clearly and even prepared a gift in advance. You obviously can't let it go, but you have to pretend that you don't care. Don't you feel uncomfortable?"
"Don't think too much."
Shen Fu emphasized again: "It was the graduation gift I owed her."
No matter what the gift is.
Just be stubborn.
Turning around and walking back into the park, Shen Fu suddenly thought of something and glanced at someone calmly, "Don't use such despicable means next time."
I didn't expect to be seen through.
Xin Yunzhou turned his eyes away awkwardly, "I'm just helping you."
"I know my own business." Shen Fu did not appreciate it.
Especially his personal affairs.
Even good brothers cannot interfere.
-
After Liang Weining got into the car, he found that the back seat was empty. He was stunned and felt lost.
The driver explained: "The gentleman has returned to his villa halfway up the mountain."
"What time does the plane land?"
"Seven o'clock."
Oh.
After a brief chat, the girl sat quietly in the back row and didn't ask any more questions.
In the rearview mirror, the driver glanced at me imperceptibly and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
There are some things you can't say.
Talking too much is overstepping the boundaries.
That's it.
Just like that, there was no words all the way.
Half an hour later, the car drove smoothly into the gate of the villa halfway up the mountain.
The car stopped in the front yard, and the driver thoughtfully opened the door for her. When she got out of the car, she saw that the other party hesitated for two seconds and left a sentence inexplicably: "Mr.'s car, only arrived ten minutes early."
What's the meaning.
Liang Weining didn't react for a moment.
I'm warning you in advance that this birthday is not as joyful as you all imagined. Although it may be inappropriate at this time, emotional issues have been pent up for a long time and need to be resolved.
