Half a catty

The call rang, and he came in through the half-closed door of the lounge. He Yue lifted his tie, the room was dimly lit, and his eyes didn't have to adapt for a long time before he could see things clearly.He Yue turned over and got off the bed. When he stepped on the ground, his leg muscles were still a little weak, and he staggered for a while, then he stood firm, and walked out of the lounge naked to answer the phone.

He Yue picked up the phone and glanced at it, then picked it up.Wang Chengyi followed out furtively, seeing He Yue put the phone to his ear, he opened his mouth and asked, "Who is it?" But He Yue quickly covered him with his eyes, and directly pressed him against the wall, and Wang Chengyi's head hit hard He went up, but he didn't even let out a cry of pain.

Wang Chengyi's mouth was covered tightly.

He Yue glared at him, and said to the phone, "Hello, Dad."

He Xincheng came up and asked, "Where are you now?"

"I'm in the company." He Yue replied.

"Xinghuan?" He Xincheng was not very happy at the moment, he could tell just by the tone of voice, He Xincheng said: "You should be in Hengtong now."

He Yue reacted for a while before he remembered, shouldn't he be in Hengtong now?Every five years, Hengtong will hold an annual appreciation dinner on this day. This year happens to be the fifth year of No.30 established by Hengtong.He Xincheng informed him a few days in advance that he must be there. He Yue was also thinking about it, and asked Assistant Li to help write it in the schedule. Unfortunately, the office door was locked and no one could come to remind him. The only internal phone that can communicate with the outside world Because it rang from time to time, Wang Chengyi, who couldn't bear the disturbance, pulled it out without authorization.

He Yue scratched his forehead in trouble: "I forgot..."

He Xincheng didn't worry about it, he didn't expect that He Yue didn't even care about such an important matter, and he had nothing else to say, so he sighed: "Come here quickly."

At the end of the call, He Yue dropped the phone and turned back into the lounge. Wang Chengyi saw him striding towards the bathroom, and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to Hengtong now." He Yue replied casually.

Wang Chengyi pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "I—"

"You—" He Yue seemed to have a tacit understanding with him, anticipating what he wanted to say, and interrupted Wang Chengyi almost at the same time: "You can't follow, it's none of your business, just take a shower later and leave .”

Once again, Wang Chengyi, who was ordered to evict guests, was depressed, and sat down on the messy bed, listening to the continuous sound of water dripping in the bathroom.

He Yue took less than 10 minutes to rinse it quickly, picked out a set of suit jackets with a calm color in the closet, and left in a hurry.

When he was tying a tie for himself before leaving, Wang Chengyi on the bed stared at a certain part of his body intently. He Yue was so stared at, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Wang Chengyi's eyes moved, he looked at He Yue, his head shook like a rattle: "It's nothing."

He Yue doesn't doubt that there is him. Now he is only worried about whether there will be traffic jams on the road for a while. Although the straight-line distance between Xinghuan and Hengtong is only four or five kilometers, the road will not be repaired like two points and one line.

Fortunately, the road was smooth, but a certain section of traffic flow was shown in red on the satellite map. He Yue reckoned that there should be an accident ahead.Sure enough, after seven or eight minutes of slow traffic, he saw a car broke down in the middle of the road, with thick white smoke coming out of the hood, and a man standing at the front of the car pacing back and forth, and his anxiety almost disappeared from there. People are overflowing.

When He Yue passed by, the speed of the car was slow, he turned his head and looked curiously, the man looked annoyed, fiddled with the phone twice, then stamped his feet with his hands clasped, beating his chest and stamping his feet was nothing more than that.

Feeling sympathetic for no reason, He Yue stepped on the brakes and slid to a stop in front of the broken down vehicle. He opened the door to get off the vehicle, walked over, and asked the man, "Do you need help?"

The man looked surprised to see someone willing to help: "Thanks, I called roadside assistance, but..."

He Yue could guess a thing or two from his expression: "You seem to be in a hurry."

"I'm really in a hurry," said the man.

He Yue looked at the time, and there were still 10 to [-] minutes before the time limit He Xincheng gave him, so he raised his head and asked, "Where are you going? If it's not far away, I can send you off."

"Hengtong Group."

He Yue felt a little surprised. He raised his eyebrows and patted his car: "Coincidentally, let's get in the car."

The man was even more surprised, a little at a loss: "But is my car left here?"

He Yue said: "If you are really in a hurry, there is no other way but to throw it here, isn't there? Your car can still move, so just move it to the side of the road, and road rescue can tow it away."

"I can't move." The man sighed.

He Yue looked at his watch again: "I'm also going to Hengtong, drop by."

The man weighed his half-dead car, and with the enthusiastic help of passers-by, he finally chose to get in He Yue's car: "That's troublesome."

He Yue drove away from the burnt-smelling miasma, and the road was unimpeded after passing this section. The only thing he cared about was that whenever he looked in the rearview mirror on the right, he could always catch a glimpse of that place out of the corner of his eye. The eyes of people glued to him.He Yue was uncomfortable, it was inexplicable to be stared at by a stranger so closely.

He Yue euphemistically reminded: "Excuse me, please keep looking at me..."

"I'm sorry! I'm a little too..." The man suddenly realized that his behavior was offensive, and apologized again and again: "I didn't mean to keep looking at you, but you have... there are words on your neck."

He Yue almost forgot about this, after being reminded by this person, he stretched his neck and looked in the mirror, barely able to see the handwriting on the back of his neck.Blame him for not paying attention when taking a bath, and not washing carefully, even though most of it was washed away by hot water, Wang Chengyi's name could still be vaguely seen.

It turned out that Wang Chengyi was looking at this when he was getting dressed.

Wang Chengyi knew how conspicuous the word was, so not only did he not remind him, but he also pretended to be normal when he asked. He Yue really didn't know how to evaluate Wang Chengyi's extremely childish behavior.

"Thank you for the reminder." He rubbed it with his fingers, and then said to the person on the co-pilot: "There is a pack of wet wipes in the storage compartment at your feet, can you help me get them?"

"Okay, no problem." The man was obliged, according to what He Yue said, he searched for wet wipes, took out one and handed it to He Yue.

While wiping, He Yue noticed that the people next to him were dressed very formally, and since Hengtong gave employees a holiday today, no one would go back to work at this time, so He Yue asked, "Are you going to the dinner party? "

The man admitted: "Well, my father works in Hengtong and asked me to come over temporarily."

He Yue understood. After wiping his neck, he crumpled the wet wipe and temporarily threw it in the cup holder of the central control. After passing a traffic light, he asked politely, "I haven't asked your name yet."

"My name is Men Changnan."

This surname is really rare, and He Yue can easily think of it as the second largest shareholder of Hengtong, and also one of the veterans who accompanied He Xincheng to make Hengtong bigger.He Yue became interested, he turned his head and took a deep look at this man with a slightly bland appearance and a gentle personality: "Menqi is yours—"

Men Changnan immediately replied, "It's my father."

He Yue was somewhat puzzled, of course he was familiar with Men Qi, and also knew that Men Qi had a son named Men Changyang.Men Changyang lived in seclusion, He Yue only met a few times, no matter what, it must not be the person in his car.

"My name is He Yue." He Yue introduced himself, he didn't need to say much, if Men Changnan was really Men Qi's son, he should have heard Men Qi mentioned himself.

Sure enough, Men Changnan said: "I heard my father told you about you, what a coincidence." Men Changnan was a little embarrassed: "This is the first time we meet today, I didn't expect to cause you trouble."

"It's not troublesome." He Yue drove a few hundred meters further to Hengtong's building. If he wasn't late, He Xincheng probably wouldn't continue to blame him. He Yue, who was in a relaxed mood, smiled: "It's just a favor, it should be."

Hengtong did not hold a big thank you banquet this time. It was held in a small banquet hall inside the company. Some business partners and high-level cadres of the company were invited. There were not many people, but there were also many.Men Changnan was not familiar with this place, so he followed He Yue all the way in, and then they dispersed.

He Yue found He Xincheng who was holding a wine glass and talking loudly with others in the middle of a group of people, and he would inevitably be stuffed with a glass and had to spend some time talking before he could get away.In the middle, Men Qi brought Men Changnan to visit, and Men Changnan specially thanked He Yue solemnly in front of his elders. The four chatted for a long time, and Men Qi really bluntly revealed Men Changnan's identity in words. , I didn't want to hide it, and even had the tendency to advertise it widely.

After the Men's father and son left, He Yue asked He Xincheng curiously, "When did Uncle Men have an extra son?"

"Don't ask me about family affairs." Although He Xincheng's attitude was ambiguous, it was equivalent to revealing that Men Changnan was an illegitimate child: "He is also anxious to find a successor."

He Yue seemed to understand: "Uncle Men just passed his [-]th birthday, so it's time to think about it, but why didn't he push the door and Changyang come up?"

"Changyang's personality is too weak. It seems that he has some mental problems recently. If he could stand still, he would have been pushed up long ago. It's a pity." He Xincheng regretted.

"After that, I guess I will have to deal with this Men Changnan often, but he seems to be a nice person, quite... simple?" He Yue is not sure how to describe Men Changnan, but from the first impression, Men Changnan Nan is not a deep-seated person.

"It's you who have to deal with him often." He Xincheng gently touched He Yue's wine glass, which had bottomed out: "Your father and I don't have a few years to do it."

He Yue couldn't hear this the most, he retorted: "You are still in good health, and you will be fine at eighty, but don't throw such a big thing like Hengtong to me."

He Xincheng didn't scold him for not taking responsibility like before, but just shook his head and said, "I can't do it, I'm tired."

Some young faces appeared at this thank-you dinner, not only He Yue, but also not only Men Changnan.Hengtong's new and old blood began to change. Before the older generation retired, they brought in their children one after another, seeking a place for them to stand firm and inherit their mantle.

In the days that followed, Chen Jiepei, who finished the filming part of the film and television base, took the filming team to other places, and then went abroad. Two months later, it was announced that the filming was completed, and the film entered the post-production stage.On the other side, Su Qiming's work has gradually achieved some results, at least the artist's profits can make up for the filming expenses.

Xinghuan is on the right track, which also means that the time for He Yue to return to Hengtong has come.
