Wildfire

Chapter 22: Dinner

Li Yanzhi stood outside the door for a long time to relieve the sudden headache. The inside and outside of the door looked like two worlds. She lingered from the other world and crawled into this world, finally able to breathe. She was like a person struggling back from the sea. , The headache faded, sweat was evaporated, she stood there for a while and called the housekeeper.

"Prepare the car." After she finished speaking, she thought for a few seconds: "Forget it, I will go by myself."

The butler personally drove her to the garage. The driver and the bodyguard stood in a row. Seeing her walking over and bending slightly, Li Yan looked back inertially before boarding the car. The 430, which was usually parked at the back, was gone. She turned her head to look. Steward: "Where's the car?"

The butler hurriedly explained: "The car was driven away by Miss Qi."

Qi Man drove away? Didn't she say that Lu Qiao came to pick her up? A sense of disharmony rose in Li Yanzhi's heart, and she frowned: "When did you drive away?"

The butler thought for a few seconds: "Just half an hour ago."

Li Yanzhi held the briefcase in his hand, clenched it tightly, his eyes deep: "What else did she say?"

"Nothing." The housekeeper thought about Qi Man's expression before leaving: "Miss Qi seems to—" He paused: "Very happy."

Happy?

The corners of Li Yanzhi's eyes drooped slightly, her face sank, and her jaw tightened. Everywhere showed that she was unhappy.

Her unhappiness contrasted sharply with Qi Man's happiness.

With soothing music playing in Qi Man's car, Lu Qiao screamed beside him: "Why did you suddenly want to drive this car out?"

This car is Li Yanzhi’s birthday gift to Qi Man. There are only three cars in the world. She usually doesn’t want to see it. Let alone drive it. She thought Qi Man would keep it for a lifetime. Who knew it would be opened today. The people were shocked, and Qi Man didn't care: "Isn't the car just driven when I buy it? What can I do if I leave it alone?"

Lu Qiao suffocated, and said back to her: "It can appreciate."

"You didn't know that this car is now priceless, but your car can be worth a whole house."

Speaking of the house, Lu Qiao changed the subject: "By the way, I found the moving company you asked me to help find. When will I move?"

Qi Man turned the steering wheel and hadn't driven for several years. She drove very slowly, starting only forty yards. This car, known as the best combination of off-road and leisure, became a grandfather in her hands, swaying, but The shock absorption is good, and the experience of sitting inside is great. Qi Man turned his head and said, "I will move after the injection."

Lu Qiao was surprised: "Where do you want to move?"

Qi Man retracted his gaze to look ahead: "Not yet."

Lu Qiao thought for a few seconds: "Otherwise, let me go first? I happen to be in a big place."

"No need." Qi Man asked: "Didn't you tell me that you have a cousin to change the house? Did you sell it?"

It’s a house near the river, with good location, good environment and convenient transportation. Her cousin used to be a wedding house. Who knows that the bride ran away on the eve of the wedding. Feeling unlucky, she told Qi Man before that she would buy it if she didn't have the money, and that night scene could not be found in the whole city.

But it was all in the first half of the year, and she didn't know if it was sold. She said, "I'll call you to ask."

Qi Man nodded: "Fight."

After she finished speaking, she emphasized: "Fight now."

Lu Qiao:...

Under pressure, Lu Qiao contacted her cousin whom she hadn't contacted for a long time. After hearing that someone was interested in the house, her cousin immediately said: "You can come and see at any time. Call me before you go."

Lu Qiao said: "Okay."

Fearing that her cousin would be too expectant, she explained: "Not necessarily to buy, just come and have a look."

"That's okay." Zhang Qi smiled: "It's okay, you can bring a friend, and you will get a discounted price."

Although the price is good, it is not cheap. The location is good, and it is well decorated. No one has ever lived in, so the price has been high. If it were not for this reason, the house would have been sold out. Lu Qiao hung up the phone. Looking at Qi Man, he said, "I don't think it is necessary to buy the house over there, the price is very high."

"And you won't live, just put a book, or I will show you other houses?"

Qi Man said: "No."

She blocked Lu Qiao with a single sentence: "I have money."

Lu Qiao:...

Why did she forget that Qi Man might not have anything, just can't have money, Li Yanzhi gave her a year of ‘living expenses’ enough to buy a few houses like her brother’s.

But she didn't even use Li Yanzhi's money before.

Lu Qiao puzzled: "Didn't you say that you don't need Li Yanzhi's money?"

Qi Man tilted his head: "I don't need her money, I'll give her a free prostitute?"

Lu Qiao:...

It seems right?

Lu Qiao was persuaded by her rationale, and she did not refute when she went to the hospital. The two got off the car and went directly to Jiang Yun. Just after eating, Jiang Yun saw the two sitting on a bench when she came out of the lounge. She had high heels. The kicking sound: "When did you come, why didn't you send me a message?"

"I just arrived." Lu Qiao said, "Isn't it time for you to eat? I didn't send you a message."

"There is no need to wait." Jiang Yun greeted the two of them to enter the house: "Come in for tea."

This is a branch hospital. Usually there are no people, and occasionally some cold and flu patients come here, so Jiang Yun is very free, she poured tea for the two: "Have you eaten?"

Qi Man said: "I have eaten it."

Jiang Yun glanced at her when he handed her tea. It was almost the same as last time. It was still a shirt with jeans, but the color was different. The bright red shirt and the material that fell feeling were not loose on the body. It was very stylish, around the shirt. Ironed with an iron, it is very stiff, especially the cuffs and neckline, the texture is full.

It's just a little boring.

It was almost forty degrees outside, and she was still wearing such a tight dress, even with a square scarf around her neck. Although it looked good, it also made people feel hot.

"Do you want my air conditioner to be lowered?" Jiang Yun asked Qi Man, smiling: "Or you can untie the scarf, in the house, you are not afraid of drying it."

When Lu Qiao heard this, she almost squirted the tea out of her mouth. She was choked and coughed several times. Jiang Yun raised her eyes: "What's wrong?"

"It's not good?"

In the past few days, the two of them have almost nothing to do and just chat. They used to be friends. After a few days of chatting, there is no gap between them. They can let go of any topic. Lu Qiao said: "She is not afraid of heat."

Of course, about Qi Man, she wouldn't say a word, just said: "She is afraid of the cold."

Qi Man didn't look at her very angry, Lu Qiao shrugged and continued drinking tea, Jiang Yun shook his head and smiled: "Whatever you want, do you have a plan for the evening?"

Lu Qiao said: "I have booked a restaurant, but Qi Man said that there is another place." After she finished speaking, she looked at Qi Man: "Where did it come from?"

"New World Hotel." Qi Man stood up and said: "At seven o'clock in the evening, I will get an injection first."

Lu Qiao waved his hand: "Go."

After she left, Jiang Yun looked at her slender figure, took a sip of tea, and asked, "Where does she work now?"

Although the two chatted freely, Lu Qiao always deliberately avoided the topic of Qi Man, so Jiang Yun's knowledge of Qi Man was about zero, and he didn't even know where he was working.

Lu Qiao thought for a while: "You will ask her later."

Jiang Yun looked at her curiously, Lu Qiao was guilty, picked up the cup and continued to drink tea, and complained: "Do you only have tea?"

"Is there any coffee?"

Jiang Yun saw through the clumsy acting skills that clearly diverted the topic. She didn't say anything, and continued with her words: "No, you are your company, you have everything."

Lu Qiao pursed his lips and smiled: "I will bring you something next time?"

"Don't drink it." Jiang Yun said: "Tea keeps in good health."

"You should drink more tea. You should pay more attention to your body when you are not young."

Lu Qiao exploded: "Who is not young anymore?!"

She is four years older than Qi Man and two years older than Jiang Yun. At the beginning, she said that Jiang Yun was a master of learning. In fact, Qi Man is, but she was born so well and looks too good. Others only mentioned the school flower of X University. , Few people would say that X is a big student.

When I was with them, Lu Qiao was actually a little inferior, not only because of his looks, but also because both of them were outstanding, and she didn’t have a great place in herself, so she didn’t dare to do anything after she fell in love with Jiang Yun. It is the topic she is least willing to mention. Others say that she is not young and she can go back with a smile on her face, but Jiang Yun said.

She can only pretend to blow up her hair.

Jiang Yun didn't expect her to react so much. He was taken aback. When Qi Man came back, he saw the two facing each other suspiciously: "What are you talking about?"

Lu Qiao returned to her: "Nothing."

"All right?"

Qi Man said: "Okay."

Lu Qiao got up: "Then let's go first." She turned to look at Jiang Yun: "See you at the hotel entrance at seven o'clock in the evening."

Jiang Yun nodded: "Okay."

After the three had made an appointment, Qi Man and Lu Qiao went downstairs. The sun was scorching outside. Qi Man pulled the silk scarf, but did not loosen it. She said to Lu Qiao: "You can drive, let's go see the house first."

Lu Qiao was still a little frightened when he got the car key: "I'm driving?"

Qi Man said: "You drive."

Although Lu Qiao is not so obsessed with and pursues luxury cars, there are only three cars in the world, and she can drive one of them. It feels indescribable. She holds the car keys and goes to the garage with Qi Man behind them. There are two people far away. I saw a lot of people around their car, the two approached, and they could still hear the discussion.

"This is Rongtian 430!"

"Fart 430, Rongtian's logo is not like this!"

"You know what a fart. There are 430 collectibles and commonly used models. This is only three collections in the world. This logo was personally invited by the boss of Rongtian to create the designer. There is no second in the world. You will know the truth if you look online. Fake, idiot."

"You are a fool!"

The two quarreled endlessly and didn’t forget to take pictures. They were surrounded by people looking for angles to take pictures. Qi Man thought he had come to the auto show by accident. She coughed, and the man standing next to her took several pictures of the car without turning his head back. Said: "Thank you for trouble."

Qi Man pursed his lips and smiled, with a clear voice: "Thank you for letting me please."

The man stood next to her, smelled a faint fragrance of perfume, before turning his head, Qi Man had already stepped on the stilettos and walked to the car. Lu Qiao unnaturally opened the lock as everyone explored, and quickly climbed into the car, but Qi Man The movements are very natural, and the posture of opening the door can be called elegant.

"What's the situation?" Lu Qiao forced: "I don't know which star do you think."

Qi Man said: "Drive your car."

This car is worth more than the celebrity, and it has a high degree of discussion. In less than half an hour, the photos of the Collector's Rongtian 430 have been circulated to various car groups. The news spread ten, ten, and soon reached Li Yun’s ears. She Staring at the photo for a while, frowned in confusion, and hurriedly called Li Yanzhi: "Yeah, has your car been stolen?"

Li Yanzhi:...

Confused Li Yanzhi quickly figured out the ins and outs, she pursed her lips and said, "No."

"Then what's going on online?" Li Yun asked, "Isn't there another 430 in your collection? I think the one driving is your secretary?"

Li Yanzhi thought for a few seconds: "Well, I sold it."

"Sold?!" Li Yun was astonished. Others didn’t know. Her aunt still knew that April 30 was her mother’s birthday, so the collection 430 was launched. The favorite jewelry design is unique in the world. There are only three. They are not for sale. Blue and pink are used in auto shows abroad. Li Yanzhi owns the red color because this color is her mother's favorite color.

The meaning of this car to Li Yanzhi is equivalent to the meaning of her mother to her. Li Yun didn't believe it at all: "How could you sell it?"

"Auntie." Li Yanzhi sat at his desk and said carefully: "It has been sold for a long time."

"Why?" Li Yun was puzzled and couldn't think of the reason why he wanted to sell. Li Yanzhi said, "I don't want to be immersed in the past."

"Sorry aunt, I didn't tell you about this."

Li Yun trembled. All the doubts just now had an explanation. She opened her mouth, trying to comfort, but couldn't find a good explanation. After a while, she said, "That's it."

"Whether it's sold or sold..."

When Li Yanzhi hung up the phone and thought of Li Yun, she went to the official forum and saw a few hot posts before entering.

[The legendary Rongtian 430, how much is it worth? 】

【Oh my God? Rongtian 430, have you seen it? 】

[Nice, the logo for the collection is so beautiful, I want to buy it all with this logo. 】

—You are thinking about fart.

Li Yanzhi clicked in. The first sentence was this message. She frowned and flipped down. There were pictures, all angles, and the last two were pictures of Qi Man and Lu Qiao getting on the car.

—One minute, I want all the information about the co-pilot and sister!

—Also, it really feels like a beautiful woman with a luxury car.

—I suddenly felt that people are better-looking than cars. The beauty of this beauty is absolutely amazing.

Beginning next, the topic of the topic has all changed. From Rongtian's recent engine situation, to the collection, to Qi Man, the style of painting has changed quickly. Li Yanzhi watched the anonymous post rushing up, and she clicked the inside line: "Come in."

The assistant knocked on the door and came in: "Mr. Li, are you looking for me?"

Li Yanzhi raised his eyes to look at him. When he is not smiling, his outline is deeper and his facial features are sharp. She opened her lips and said, "Squeeze down all the posts and reports about 430 on the Internet."

The assistant didn't know, so he looked up to ask, pierced Li Yanzhi's non-smiling eyes, and hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll make arrangements now."

Li Yanzhi looked at him leaving his back leaning on the seat with an unhappy expression.

After thinking about the meeting, she took out her mobile phone. After finding Qi Man's number, she didn't dial, and turned her hand off to continue working, only occasionally looking up at the forum.

Rongtian’s public relations department did things very quickly, and the news about 430 on the Internet had been suppressed in less than two hours. Before a car carnival had begun, he was cut off and stopped.

After all, the nature of 430 is different from the current K8 incident. One is for the entertainment of gossip and the other is for official reports to follow closely, so there is no way to treat them equally. After 430's posts were suppressed, K8 floated up again.

Li Yanzhi looked down at the word K8 on the screen and thought for a few seconds before calling Lou Ya: "Is Qi Shaotang still in the old beauty?"

Lou Ya said: "Yes, his meeting is over in three days. I guess he is waiting for your reply these three days."

After all, the current public opinion has broken the sky, and Rongtian’s shares are also trending downward. The directors are clamoring for an explanation. Instead of being passive now, it is better to pay the money. Presumably Qi Shaotang thinks the same way.

However, Li Yanzhi did not intend to do this.

She said: "Don't worry about Qi Shaotang for the time being, you help me find someone."

Lou Ya asked: "President Li, please tell me."

"Help me check Yu Shaoyang." Li Yanzhi said, "I want to know if he met with Qi Shaotang in March."

"Mr. Yu?" Lou Ya was puzzled. Yu Jia is a manufacturer that specializes in supplying raw materials. Yu Shaoyang was a company that he took over at the end of last year. Before that, his father was in charge of him, although Rong Tian had not cooperated with Yu Jia. , But the Yu family’s reputation is good. After Yu Shaoyang took over, he was included in the list of partners this year because he was a newcomer. Lou Ya had a deep memory. She said, "Is there always something wrong with Yu?"

"Not sure yet." Li Yanzhi said: "Let's check first."

Lou Ya immediately responded: "Okay."

Before leaving get off work, Lou Ya called in. She was obviously busy and spoke quickly: "Mr. Li, check it out. Mr. Yu visited Jiumei in March, and the hotel he stayed in was under Mr. Qi's name. "

Li Yanzhi nodded: "Have you checked his recent whereabouts?"

"I checked it handily." As Li Yanzhi's most handy secretary, Lou Ya is a professional. She reported: "He is now in China. He heard that Jinrong will open a branch the day after tomorrow."

"Jin Rong?" Li Yanzhi thought of the man who gave her business card on the plane, and the corners of her lips raised slightly: "I see."

Lou Ya asked, "Mr. Li, is K8 related to Mr. Yu?"

"I'll know when I meet Yu Shaoyang." Li Yanzhi said: "You will stay in the old beauty and be ready to deal with Qi Shaotang at any time."

Lou Ya respectfully said: "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Li Yanzhi found the business card stuffed into the second floor from the briefcase, and she almost threw it away. She didn’t like Jinrong. Jinrong started with raw materials, and so did Rongtian. The two used to be in competition. The relationship, low prices and deliberately engaging in such things as the other party is not countless. Later, Rongtian transformed into the auto industry and Jinrong also changed its business to exclusively supply auto parts. The two became a cooperative relationship because Rongtian also needed supplies. Looking at the whole country, there are few companies that can compare with Jinrong. Otherwise, Rongtian can be tortured with him for so many years, so the two occasionally have small cooperation, which is not painful or itchy. The previous things have passed. Everyone maintains a harmonious status quo, and knows in private that no one looks down on anyone.

Later, her parents left in an accident and Rongtian suffered heavy losses. Jin Rong took advantage of the fire and robbed him. Not only did he win over many of their customers, but also turned his head to start in the automotive industry. This was a big blow to Rongtian, and it also affected the relationship between the two. Pushed into desperation.

But there are no eternal friends or enemies. In the shopping mall, profit is always the priority. If Rongtian's 480 in the second half of the year is mass-produced, it will definitely need a component supplier. The manager of Rongtian said this last time. thing.

Although Li Yanzhi has no plans to cooperate with Jinrong, it doesn't hurt to take a look.

He pressed the inside line, the assistant opened the door and came in. Li Yanzhi asked, "Has Jin Rong sent the invitation letter recently?"

The assistant hurriedly said: "Yes." He looked at Li Yanzhi: "But it's all filtered for you."

Because Li Yanzhi does not wait to see Jinrong, it is something the entire industry knows.

Li Yanzhi said: "Send me the invitation tomorrow."

The assistant was stunned for two seconds: "Is it Jinrong's?"

Li Yanzhi squinted his eyes: "Otherwise?"

The assistant lowered his head: "I see."

Li Yanzhi nodded and waved: "Go down."

The assistant turned and left. As soon as Li Yanzhi was about to look at the data during the day, he heard the phone beep, and news came in. She looked at Zhao Haichuan’s news: Miss Li, are you leaving?

Dinner in the evening.

Li Yanzhi almost forgot. She asked her assistant to prepare the car, went to the cubicle to change a set of clothes before walking out, and looking in the mirror for a few seconds: "Is the car ready?"

"Okay." The assistant said: "Should I accompany you?"

Li Yanzhi looked at the person in the glasses, with beautiful facial features, exquisite makeup, and a good figure. She turned her head and said, "No, I will go by myself."

She finished speaking and stepped onto the elevator with a briefcase.

It’s not far to the New World Hotel, about ten minutes away. Before getting on the bus, she replied to Zhao Haichuan: We are leaving.

After Zhao Haichuan got out of the car, he received a message from her and put his mobile phone in his bag. The driver beside him said, "Is it Mr. Li? Is she coming today?"

"She must come here." Zhao Haichuan's attitude was casual: "A family like her, don't you find a backer?"

His family is in politics, and his mother is the dean of the city hospital. He has been accompanied by scholars since he was a child. He is a little arrogant and self-respecting. It depends on how the bosses look greasy. He just heard that the person who arranged his blind date was the boss Particularly unhappy, and later learned that it was Li Yanzhi that eased his face.

He doesn’t like the money he talks about. He likes the people who talk about it. He has a good figure and a high profile and a small waist. Who doesn’t like it, no matter how tall he is, he is also a man with desires.||Hope, that’s why After meeting, agreed to give it a try.

Zhao Haichuan believes that Li Yanzhi also needs his own power, so he usually does not take the initiative to contact Li Yanzhi, waiting for her to take the initiative, but he did not expect this person to be so busy, waiting for half a month without any news, his mother only Aunt Tuoliyan set a time for dinner.

Before he walked to the door, he saw two women standing together from a distance. One of them was wearing a red shirt and jeans, with a long pony tail, and a profile face. The combination was very simple, but it lined her with a special temperament. Zhao Haichuan stood. On her side, she looked up and saw half of her eyebrows, delicate and bright, fair skin, with a faint smile at the corners of her mouth, and her half-curved eyes seemed to be able to talk.

Before Zhao Haichuan walked over, he heard someone shouting: "Doctor Zhao?"

He turned his head: "Doctor Jiang?"

Jiang Yun didn’t expect to meet the prince here again. She didn’t have much contact with Zhao Haichuan. She needed to work and could only meet occasionally. Although there was not much contact, there were many things about the prince, and she felt a bit angry. , She sternly said: "Dr. Zhao come over for dinner?"

"An appointment." Zhao Haichuan didn't really want to talk to Jiang Yun, he looked at Qi Man: "Is this lady your friend?"

"Yes." Jiang Yun said to get closer to Qi Man, as if trying to block Zhao Haichuan's eyes from chasing after him. Qi Man's posture fell silent, and she smiled: "Hello."

The voice was crisp, neither light nor light, Zhao Haichuan nodded: "Hello."

When he finished speaking, Lu Qiao came over with a bag, and said, "This parking brother doesn't know where he is going, and he asked me to park by myself. It's a five-star hotel. This service—"

She saw that there was another man in front of Qi Man and Jiang Yun and couldn't help but said, "Who is this?"

Jiang Yun explained: "This is our dean's son and a doctor."

Lu Qiao glanced at them, nodded, stretched out his hand and said, "Happy meeting."

Zhao Haichuan shook hands with her, and Lu Qiao said, "Then what, shall we go in first?"

Jiang Yun looked at Zhao Haichuan, bowed his head and said, "Doctor Zhao, then my friend and I will go in first."

The three of them turned around and Qi Man was caught by the wrist. She turned her head and saw Zhao Haichuan's face with good features and his expressions that hesitate to speak. She was puzzled: "Doctor Zhao?"

Zhao Haichuan said: "Sorry, I want to ask you for a contact information, can you?"

"of course can."

A slightly cold voice came from behind Zhao Haichuan. Qi Man looked up and looked over. Li Yanzhi's face was a little dark, his eyes were deep and dark, and her pupils were dark and bright. Her pretty face was tight and her lips were pursed, obviously unpleasant to the extreme.

After seeing the hand that Zhao Haichuan was holding Qi Man, Li Yanzhi's fire burned completely. She had a gloomy face and said clearly: "Since Mr. Zhao is so interested in this young lady, it's better to be together. Have a potluck?"

When she asked, she looked at Qi Man and waited for her to refuse. She believed that Qi Man could hear the displeasure in her words.

But she miscalculated.

The man did not brush off Zhao Haichuan's hand, but instead smiled, with a gentle and gentle voice: "Okay."

The usual sweet voice, at the moment it sounds-very harsh.
