Chapter 30

"This is called two-way communication."

Li Li snorted lightly, and turned to ask Xu Erhan: "When are you coming back from Shencheng? Can you make it in time for my birthday?"

Li Li's birthday is the 20th of the fourth lunar month, which happens to be this Saturday, three days later.

Xu Erhan's gaze withdrew from the cold light emitted by the computer screen, raised her hand to gently adjust the glasses frame, the whole person showing a rational temperament, "It's almost finished, it is expected to return to Jing tomorrow night."

Su Ruoyun looked at her clear and rational appearance and gave birth to a bit of gossip: "You went to Shencheng, is it for business, or to cultivate feelings?"

"..." Xu Erhan.

"Have you heard a sentence,"

While asking, she leaned forward, her long fingers lightly on the round handle of the teacup, picked up the teacup steadily, sipped it unhurriedly, her movements were slow and elegant, and then added a sentence: "Villains die from gossip."

Su Ruoyun didn't care that her friend called herself a villain, but keenly captured the mistake in her words: "Isn't it talking too much?"

Hearing this, Xu Erhan put down the cup and smiled without smiling: "You also know you talk too much."

"..." Su Ruoyun.

A burst of coughing came from the phone receiver, it was Li Li who was choked by red wine.

"Goodbye, never see again." Su Ruoyun said this and hung up the video call.

Day and night alternated, and it was two days later, Friday. The weather in Sijiucheng was exceptionally sultry.

Qi Zhiwen was running in the scorching sun at noon. After seeing the client at the law firm, he hurried to the Bank of China. Stepping into the room, a coolness swept over him instantly, and he let out a long breath.

After entering Huo Jingcheng's office, he didn't be polite to his friend, picked up the tea that hadn't been moved on the desk, held the glass vessel with his right hand, looked up and poured it in. The cool tea liquid entered his throat, the tea fragrance permeated, dispelling the heat and fatigue, and the whole person gradually relaxed.

Huo Jingcheng didn't react in time and failed to stop Qi Zhiwen, so he could only watch him drink his tea in one gulp.

After a cup of tea, the fragrance was long, the rich bean flower fragrance, with a faint floral and fruity fragrance, sweet and moist without losing freshness.

Qi Zhiwen raised his arm, held up the glass, his gaze fell on the cup, looking at the sharp, treasure-like green leaves, and asked: "Where did you get such good tea leaves?"

"Bought at 'One River Tobacco' tea house."

Qi Zhiwen had heard of this tea house that was spreading like wildfire in the celebrity circle.

"That's the tea house opened by the little star kept by Su Mingyan."

Hearing the words "little star", Huo Jingcheng frowned imperceptibly, but recalling the words Su Ruoyun had exhorted when she left two days ago, he finally didn't speak to explain anything.

Qi Zhiwen put down the teacup, paced to the sofa area, and leaned lazily against the leather seat back, "It turns out Zheyan was right."

Huo Jingcheng's well-defined hand slowly let go of the mouse, then his two hands were placed on the armrests on both sides of the office chair, and the whole person leaned back loosely, his posture lazy and scattered, "What did he say?"

"He said Su Mingyan snatched your project, and you want to snatch his woman."

Huo Jingcheng bent his long fingers and pinched the bridge of his nose, and a trace of helplessness appeared between his eyebrows.

This "absurd" idea had penetrated deep into the heart of the second young master of the Chen family.

Before he could explain to Qi Zhiwen, Lin Cheng knocked on the office door and walked in, "Huozong, President Tang has arrived."

Qi Zhiwen also came for this contract, hearing this, he took out the document from his briefcase, put it on the coffee table, and in a while, that President Tang walked into the office.

The negotiation took a long time, and it also delayed the meal time. The wall clock on the white wall, the minute hand swayed more than half a circle.

"Huozong, I won't delay your time anymore. I'll let the legal department draft a new contract first when I go back."

President Tang closed the document in his hand while standing up, shaking hands with Huo Jingcheng and Qi Zhiwen.

"Okay, let the assistant arrange a specific time when you are free another day." Huo Jingcheng lowered his eyes and looked at the steel watch on his left wrist, "Just have lunch together?"

President Tang declined with a smile, "No, I have something to do, I'm going to drink tea."

"Drink tea at this time?" Qi Zhiwen didn't understand.

He explained: "The tea house business is good. I made an appointment half a month in advance, and it was hard to get this private room. There is no way at noon, so I have to go and drink a cup first."

Hearing President Tang say this, Qi Zhiwen was hooked, and there was a guess in his heart, "Which tea house?"

Beijing people are open-minded and straightforward. Hearing Qi Zhiwen's inquiry, he said honestly: "Isn't it that 'One River Tobacco' that is spreading everywhere? It is said that President Su of Hengfeng..."

He laughed and mixed the key words, "So I thought about leaving a name there."

Qi Zhiwen closed the document, handed it to Lin Cheng, and said casually: "I haven't been there either."

Hearing his implication, President Tang hurriedly said: "If Huozong and President Qi don't mind, why not go together and have a drink."

Qi Zhiwen's lips curled into an arc, "Then we will be disrespectful."

The three of them went out together.

When President Tang went out, he specifically ordered his secretary to book a meal. It was impossible to let Huo Jingcheng and Qi Zhiwen drink tea hungry.

Huo Jingcheng and Qi Zhiwen fell behind.

Huo Jingcheng put his right hand in his suit pocket, his left hand hung by his side, and asked his friend while walking: "What do you want to do in the tea house?"

"Go see the world." Qi Zhiwen dragged a long tail.

Inside 'One River Tobacco' tea house.

The secretary politely stepped forward to communicate with the front desk staff, reported his name, and added: "The reserved one is Ruyuan private room."

After Xiao Hu registered the information, a staff member led them to it.

After the people left the front courtyard, Xiao Hu and Xiao Li looked at each other, Xiao Li asked: "Huozong is here, should we let the tea server go over, or..."

Xiao Hu gave her a suggestion, "Go ask the Boss Lady."

At this time, Su Ruoyun was in the main room. Xiao Li stepped into the room, her eyes swept over the military green figure standing by the bookshelf, and then her eyes moved to Su Ruoyun, "Boss Lady, Huozong is here, in Ruyuan private room. You see, should you go over, or..."

Su Ruoyun stopped her movements, raised her eyelids to look at Xiao Li, "Just him alone?"

Xiao Li said: "No, Ruyuan private room was reserved by President Tang of Hetai, and the accompanying one is that President Qi."

That is official business, Su Ruoyun replied: "Just follow the shift schedule."

Getting the answer, Xiao Li went out and closed the door lightly.

Hearing a slight closing sound, the man standing by the bookshelf turned around and leaned against the yellow rosewood piano table placed behind, "Sister, you still dare to entertain that President Huo, really not afraid that Big Brother will slap you to death?"
