third relationship

"Are you awake?" Shen Qiao asked coolly.

"En." Shen Qi nodded honestly.

Shen Qi still had a vague impression of what happened last night. The general content was probably that he was drunk to Shen Qiao and said something about going to bed.Waking up early in the morning and seeing Shen Qiao, who was sitting beside his bed in a well-dressed and cold as ice, Shen Qi felt that something was wrong, what he should do now was to obediently admit his mistake, lie down and let you fry and fry.

But now the background is that the doctor has just come for a round.He had a bad stomach in the first place, and drinking so much wine in one breath clearly thought he was dying. Fortunately, after a checkup, there were no major problems, but recently he had to be calm, especially not to get angry.

Shen Qiao watched the whole process of the inspection, which is probably the reason why he is so magnanimous today.

Shen Qiao didn't want to recall at all the journey that dragged Shen Qi from the swimming pool to the bedroom last night. In his 35 years of life, he had never been as persuasive as last night, just to drag him back to bed!

Even if I didn't stab him today for the sake of his stomach, I really love him.Shen Qiao thought silently, and felt that she was magnanimous in not forcing Shen Qi to give herself the EG formula: "When you wake up, just tell me what you plan to do. You have to remember the grudge against those dogs and I will help you right now." You hire a killer, the first package in Southeast Asia to deal with the aftermath. If you don’t want to kill people and harm your morality, I can also help you make a few stumbling blocks so that they don’t have a good time. In short, everything is up to you.”

"Nothing."

"Oh?" Shen Qiao raised her eyebrows.

Shen Qi smiled wryly, and didn't say much. Perhaps in Shen Qiao's eyes, what Li Rong did was an unforgivable crime, but after waking up, he really didn't have the slightest thought of revenge in his mind.What did Li Rong do wrong, and what did He Qiongyin do wrong? He is a man of talent and beauty who loves freely, so what does it matter to him as an outsider?

He should have completely disappeared from Li Rong's life 17 years ago. The entanglement of these years was nothing but his own unwillingness to let go.

The two were relatively silent for 2 minutes, and Shen Qi suddenly said abruptly: "Actually, Mu Mu, I pretended to be so pitiful with you a few days ago, it was on purpose. I don't think God will be so cruel, I want me to be more like that. It's miserable." He grinned, and he could be called bright and beautiful, but the desolation in his eyes looked like a peach blossom in late spring, "I, it's not that miserable. I want to be serious about it." I have a bad temper, but at this age, are you embarrassed?"

Shen Qiao didn't say a word, she just put her hand on Shen Qi's shoulder to comfort her.

Willful crying is always the privilege of teenagers.When you're older, even if someone is willing to tolerate you, you can't hold back your face.

He is 35 years old.

Shen Qi remembered that when he was 17 years old, a girl wrote a love letter to Li Rong, but he saw it first.At that time, he was like a lion whose territory had been violated. He aggressively went to settle accounts with that girl who was also from an extraordinary family background.

But now he suddenly recalled the self who was ignorant and fearless.He no longer dared to do the same thing.If you go to the gambling king's house to kick the hall, he will become the biggest joke in Hong Kong the next day.

That scene was really embarrassing just thinking about it.

What's more, he also personally directed an old friend script for himself with friendly blessings. He wanted a decent exit, so he naturally lost the right to fight.

He raised his head to look at Shen Qiao, feeling a sense of sympathy and compassion in his heart.It was indeed an accident that Shen Qiao and him could be friends. They really cherished each other, and their life experiences were almost weird, like when the goddess of fate cut silk thread, she cut two with trembling hands.Even though different choices were made at the crossroads of life, in the end they all lead to the same goal.

"..." Shen Qiao seemed to feel that she had nothing to say, she got up and patted Shen Qi on the shoulder, "It's as long as you are happy. I'm going back." He seemed to suddenly remember something, and said, "When you checked just now, Cheng Wang I made a phone call and said I want to see you, so feel free to meet me or not."

There was a moment of silence in the room, and after a while, Shen Qi closed his eyes: "He wants to see me, let him come over."

Shen Qiao took a deep look at him and closed the door: "Then I'll call him for you."

When Cheng Wang came in, Shen Qi was holding a stack of materials to browse through. He stood by the door, hesitating a little: "Mr. Shen."

Shen Qi looked up at him, his pale face evoked a gentle smile: "Are you here? Sit down."

Cheng Wang moved a chair and sat next to Shen Qi.He didn't say much, just sat quietly by the side and stared at Shen Qi on the bed.He looked a bit haggard, his eyes were not bright, and even Tian Cheng's romantic beauty was somewhat dimmed.And obviously when we met for the first time, he was not like this.

Cheng Wang remembered the first time he met Shen Qi when he was ten years old, he hid in the attic and refused to come out, and Shen Qi, who was 22 years old at the time, was wearing a gray turtleneck sweater and held out his hand smilingly, saying to him, Ah Wang, don’t Afraid.

When he returned to China two years ago, Shen Qi also came to pick him up at the airport, hugged him in the crowd, and said Wang, welcome home.

Cheng Wang exhaled lightly to balance his fast heartbeat.Even when there were many changes in those few years and they had to part ways and cut off contact, he always believed that he still had a home on the other side of the ocean, and Shen Qi would be waiting for him there.

"Why do you want to come here all of a sudden?" Shen Qi said suddenly, and his dark eyes looked at Cheng Wang tenderly.Cheng Wang came back to his senses, and hurriedly said: "I heard that you have invited a doctor, I am worried, so I want to come and have a look."

Shen Qi laughed, and reached out to rub Cheng Wang's dark and soft hair.Even though Cheng Wang is an adult, he is still used to treating him like a child: "You can come over anytime you want to see me, you don't have to pick when you are sick."

This made Cheng Wang a little lost again.He lowered his head to avoid Shen Qi's hand, and moved his eyes to the document Shen Qi had just read: "The reference map for the site selection of the factory?"

"I agreed to Shen Qiao's condition to build a pharmaceutical production plant in the mainland. His suggestion was to choose a site in Sichuan, where the labor force is abundant, and the technology is relatively developed in the west, and it is relatively close to drug-infested areas, which is convenient for products. Transport." Shen Qiao pressed her forehead, "Ah Wang, what do you think?"

Cheng Wang took a look, turned his eyes away and said, "I'm not familiar with the situation in the mainland. If you think there is no problem, you can follow Mr. Shen's opinion." He paused, then suddenly asked, "Mr. Shen hasn't returned to the mainland. , is it to deal with this matter?"

"I don't know." Shen Qi thought for a while, and suddenly had some doubts in his heart, "Why do you suddenly care about Shen Qiao's affairs?"

"I'll just ask." Cheng Wang got up and sorted the documents in front of Shen Qi into a stack, "It's rare for Mr. Shen to stay in Hong Kong for so long. I'm a little curious."

"Who can guess what Shen Qiao is thinking?" Shen Qi smiled indifferently and didn't take it seriously, "How is your health recently? I asked you to send me the physical examination form every month. Why didn't you give me this month? I?"

"It's not bad." Cheng Wang said lightly, "This month, the development department has a lot of things to do, so I don't have time to go to the hospital. Besides, the old men on the board of directors may say in front of you that I'm not qualified for the job, so I don't have time to go to the hospital. Trouble." He rolled Shen Qi's eyes, and his tone seemed a little sullen, "You're still talking about me, haven't you just seen a doctor yourself?"

"You started to take care of me?" Shen Qi chuckled, but his tone became serious, "Don't worry, I'll take care of my body even for you." He stared at Cheng Wang's exquisite eyebrows, slightly absent-minded, " How can I rest assured that you haven't grown up yet?"

Cheng Wang's heart warmed up, and he immediately restrained his redundant expression, and put on his usual, docile but cold face again: "I'm 23 years old, I've grown up a long time ago."

outlying islands.

"Uncle." In the display screen, a black-haired boy waved his hand towards the other end of the screen, his tone was cheerful, his sunglasses covered most of his face, only showing the beautiful but sharp jawline, "Can you see me?"

"I can see it." Shen Qiao sat on the sofa, the corners of her slightly lowered mouth raised unconsciously, her usual indifference and silence had long since disappeared, "Are you in Los Angeles, Xiaolin?"

"Go to Disney right away, and the godfather will be with me." The young man bent his lips into a smile, his lips were very similar to Shen Qiao's, and even the width of his lips was almost the same.His face suddenly distorted, and when the picture was clearer again, the person on the screen had been replaced by a middle-aged man with blond hair and blue eyes.The smile on the corner of Shen Qiao's mouth suddenly subsided a little: "Long time no see, Mr. Lockett."

"Long time no see, Hobbs." The man called "Mr. Lockett" politely replied, "Are you all right?"

"It's all right." Shen Qiao said lightly, "I wonder if Charlie has troubled you?"

"You worry too much. Charlie is very obedient, and we get along very well." Lockett still smiled, "I heard that you have an action in China that involves EG's production issues?"

"That's the opinion of the patent holder, and I have no right to interfere, but don't worry, I have minimized our losses." Shen Qiao was neither humble nor overbearing, "Charlie is still nearby, don't talk about this in front of the children. "

Lockett was silent for a moment, and said, "Okay." He turned his head, his tone obviously much more intimate, "Charlie, is there anything else you want to tell your uncle (1)?"

"No more." A swaying hand appeared on the screen, stopped, and the picture suddenly distorted again.The young man took off his sunglasses and raised his jaw towards Shen Qiao, "Why are you smoking again, don't you care about your lungs?"

It was only then that Shen Qiao noticed that she couldn't help but lit a cigarette again: this is also his habit, and he must light a cigarette when talking about business.But after his nephew spoke, he had no choice but to quickly press it off: "I'm sorry, I won't do it next time."

The boy turned his head and snorted coldly, obviously full of dislike for his old smoker uncle: "We went to line up, next time let me see that I will definitely sell your cabinet of treasures."

...My nephew would definitely do such a thing.Shen Qiao smiled wryly in her heart, and waved her hand at the young man: "Go and play. If you catch him, you will be guaranteed to sell cigarettes."

The display flickered again, and finally went completely black.Shen Qiao turned around, only to find that a man about five or sixty years old had been standing behind him for a long time.He quickly got up and helped the man to sit down: "Uncle Sun Yang, why didn't you tell me when you came?"

The man chuckled: "Boss Shen and the young master had a good chat, and I don't want to interrupt." Looking at the blacked-out display screen, he said with emotion, "The young master has grown up."

"That's right. Let him come to Hong Kong to meet you tomorrow." Shen Qiao said, and immediately asked seriously, "Any news?"

"Yes." Sun Yang also straightened his face, "Mr. Xie asked someone to tell me that it happened in September and October."

After a moment of silence, Shen Qiao suddenly smiled and said, "I owe him another favor."

Sun Yang always knew about his complicated relationship with that cousin named Xie, so he didn't speak up.After a long time, it was Shen Qiao who spoke again: "Come, just come, the preparations that should be made have already been made. If he doesn't come, I haven't had a chance to solve my problem yet."

Sun Yang replied, and then asked: "Do you want to talk to Mr. Shen Qi? After all, he can't shirk this matter. It's better to know earlier."

"No need, he's been bothered enough recently, it's useless to talk about it. Besides..." Shen Qiao looked out the window and said lazily, "Cheng Wang has to worry about his affairs!"

(1) Here we set the English they use for communication. In English, uncle is called "uncle", and the literal translation is uncle... But this should be common sense, right?
