Retreat
Chapter 20
Qiao Mudong was in a meeting at this time, it was Ling Yun's monthly regular meeting, high-level executives had to attend, and all departments summarized the work situation of the month.It wasn't an important meeting, but because of Ling Qiang's presence, the atmosphere was a bit serious.
Ling Qiang has always been strict about the details. During the meeting, he can speak out loudly if he has a problem, but he is not allowed to whisper. He can answer the phone, but the phone must be turned on to vibrate.
Qiao Mudong came in a hurry, he left his mobile phone in the office and didn't take it with him. At this time, he was absent-minded, staring at the pen on the table.
Ling Qiang noticed that Qiao Mudong was distracted, and he felt helpless.Qiao Mudong doesn't know everything about Ling Yun's business, but at least seven out of ten senses are not. He intends to let Qiao Mudong go to study for a few years, but Qiao Mudong said bluntly, he is almost 30 years old, so throw him back to school He was just dawdling, and couldn't learn at all.So this has become Ling Qiang's biggest conflict now. He really wants to hand Ling Yun over to Qiao Mudong, but he is afraid that he is seeking his own death; if he gives up Qiao Mudong, he will only have one daughter left, Ling Zhilu, who knows how to buy clothes and jewelry Well, giving Ling Yun to her is equivalent to giving to Fu Chenshan. When he gets old, Ling Yun will no longer be named Ling.
Huang Haisheng walked to the door of the conference room and looked inside.He hesitated for a while in the office, and finally decided to convey He Yu's words to Qiao Mudong. After all, the chances of offending Qiao Mudong and dismissing him were much higher than the chances of offending Ling Qiang.Knowing Ling Qiang's habit, he didn't knock on the door, pushed the door in as lightly as possible, walked quietly behind Qiao Mudong, and whispered in his ear: "That Mr. He Yuhe said he needed something for you, and now he is waiting in the lobby. on."
Qiao Mudong suddenly turned his head to look at him.
Huang Haisheng nodded.
Qiao Mudong stood up and waved his head to signal Huang Haisheng to go out with him.When the two came to the corridor, Qiao Mudong asked, "What did he say?"
Huang Haisheng said: "I just said I asked you for help, but didn't say anything specific."
"Looking for my help?" Qiao Mudong thought about it, then smiled, "I'm going down now."
"Oh? Mr. Qiao!" Huang Haisheng didn't even have time to stop him, so Qiao Mudong ran to the elevator.
The waiting process always seemed extremely long. He Yu raised his head to look in the direction of the elevator from time to time, and picked up his mobile phone to look at it from time to time.Then suddenly heard a "ding", the elevator door opened, and Qiao Mudong came out from inside.
He Yu stood up from the sofa, watched Qiao Mudong walk up to him, stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"
He Yu said, "Are you free now?"
Qiao Mudong showed some impatience, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
He Yu sighed secretly, so he said directly: "My friend has an accident. It is Li Tang, the owner of Shiyouwei. I don't know if he offended someone. When I came here early this morning, I saw that the restaurant was smashed up, and people I don't know where I went, it seems like I was taken away by someone."
"Li Tang?" Qiao Mudong's voice rose slightly, as if he was a little confused.
He Yu suddenly remembered that Li Tang once said that he had heard of Qiao Mudong's name, maybe Qiao Mudong also knew about Li Tang?Then he made persistent efforts and said to Qiao Mudong: "Uncle Fang introduced me to work at Brother Li, Fang Wentai, do you remember?"
Qiao Mudong frowned, thinking hard, "Someone Fang Wentai knows? Is that Li Tang?"
"Which Li Tang?" He Yu asked quickly, he felt that he might really have found the right person.
"Wait a minute." Qiao Mudong began to fumble for the phone on his body, rummaged through his pockets and realized that he forgot to bring the phone, and couldn't help cursing: "Fuck!"
He Yu took out his mobile phone and gave it to him, "You can use mine."
"Put it away," Qiao Mudong waved him away impatiently, "If you don't have a number, call me!"
He Yu resisted Qiao Mudong's irritability, and cursed him inwardly.
Qiao Mudong walked to the front desk and asked the lady at the front desk to dial Huang Haisheng's number for him. After the call was connected, Qiao Mudong simply ordered: "Take my mobile phone, wallet and car keys and wait for me in the parking lot."
Huang Haisheng hurriedly said: "Mr. Ling is looking for you, you—"
Qiao Mudong hung up the phone without waiting for him to finish, then turned around and took He Yu's arm, and walked towards the elevator.
The two went down to the underground parking lot faster than Huang Haisheng. They waited for 2 minutes beside Qiao Mudong's car before seeing Huang Haisheng running towards him panting heavily.
He handed over the things Qiao Mudong had ordered, held his breath with his hands and gasped for a while, and said, "Mr. Ling asked you to go to his office before noon."
Qiao Mudong had already opened the car door and got into the car. He pushed down the window and shouted to He Yu, "Get in the car!"
So He Yu had no choice but to open the co-pilot's door and sit in it.
Only then did Qiao Mudong take the time to say to Huang Haisheng: "Tell him I'm not free, we'll talk about it tomorrow."
Huang Haisheng said in embarrassment: "How can this be done? Mr. Qiao..."
Qiao Mudong had already started the car and honked the horn to signal Huang Haisheng to get out of the way.
Huang Haisheng looked helpless, and moved to make way for Qiao Mudong. Seeing that Qiao Mudong's car had started, he couldn't help persuading him: "Mr. Qiao, you should come back earlier to see Mr. Ling."
Qiao Mudong glanced at him and replied, "I see."
The car had left the parking space, and he accelerated suddenly, heading towards the exit.
He Yu sat in the co-pilot's seat and fastened his seat belt silently.
Qiao Mudong was holding the steering wheel with one hand, and was talking on the phone with the other.He Yu didn't know who he was calling, but he only heard the words "Li Tang", "Hong Xiangfeng", "Hong Minhang", "Day of Death"... these words.
When Qiao Mudong hung up the phone, He Yu asked a little uneasy: "Did Brother Li cause trouble?"
Qiao Mudong snorted coldly: "Li Tang is a big trouble! Is Fang Wentai reassured and wants to punish you?"
He Yu's face was a little ugly, and he said, "Uncle Fang definitely didn't mean that."
As soon as the voice finished, Qiao Mudong's phone rang again. He answered the phone, listened to it for a while, and said, "Xiangzhu Street, right? I see." Then he hung up the phone, and opened the address book again to search.
He Yu suddenly pressed his hand and reminded: "There are traffic police ahead."
Another three to four hundred meters is the intersection, and a traffic policeman stands straight in the middle.
Qiao Mudong threw the phone to He Yu, "Help me find a phone number named Hong Minhang."
He Yu picked up Qiao Mudong's cell phone, pulled down the address book, and quickly found the number Qiao Mudong wanted.The car happened to be on the opening, Qiao Mudong said: "You help me dial."
He Yu dialed the phone and heard two beeps, and the call was connected. It was a man's voice, with an affectionate smile, and said, "Master Qiao is looking for me? Really? Rare!"
He Yu handed the phone to Qiao Mudong, and Qiao Mudong took it, pressed the speakerphone and held it in his hand, and said, "Little Hong, long time no see. How are you doing?"
He Yu heard hearty laughter from the other end of the phone, "Very good, how are you? I heard that you broke a man's leg and locked him in. Why did you let him out so quickly? Could it be someone Are you bending the law for personal gain?"
Qiao Mudong sneered, "Stop talking nonsense to me."
There was still some smile in Hong Minhang's tone, "You asked me how I am doing first, so why don't I chat with you a little bit more. Okay, you have such a big temper, so just tell me what's wrong with you." .”
Qiao Mudong said: "Someone came to take Li Tang away, didn't you?"
Hong Minhang was silent for a moment, "I don't remember you having friendship with Li Tang?"
Qiao Mudong glanced at He Yu, "My friend asked me to ask for him."
Hong Minhang said: "I didn't ask anyone to trouble Li Tang, probably the people below did it behind my back. Since you are so capable, you must know more than me."
Qiao Mudong said: "Someone said they saw him being taken to Xiangzhu Street, I will go there now."
"Xiangzhu Street?" Hong Minhang said, "Okay, you go and wait for me first, I will come later."
When Hong Minhang hung up the phone, He Yu seemed to hear a very soft sigh, and he didn't know if he heard it wrong.
After the call was over, Qiao Mudong put the phone back in his pocket, and He Yucai asked, "Where is Xiangzhu Street?"
Qiao Mudong said: "It's in the north of the city, at the old electric factory."
There used to be a large electric motor factory in the northern suburbs of Chongfeng City. The state-owned factory closed down in the early 90s. At that time, many workers were forced to lay off and lost their jobs. They were probably of He Yu’s mother’s generation.Most of the young people nowadays don't mention the electrical machinery factory anymore, and they often talk about the old people in Chongfeng City.
He Yu was a little curious and asked, "Which piece are you familiar with?"
While turning the steering wheel, Qiao Mudong said, "I grew up near there."
The north of the city has always been the worst place in Chongfeng City. There is a train station and a large passenger station there, and the flow of people is very dense.In addition, after the closure of the motor factory, the newly built auto parts city and the small commodity market are also there, so the population composition is complicated, and the incidence of criminal cases is extremely high.
Naturally, the members of the Ling family shouldn't have grown up in the area north of the city, but as the illegitimate child of the Ling family, Qiao Mudong, it's entirely possible.Speaking of which, until now, He Yu didn't know what kind of person Qiao Mudong's mother was. To be Ling Qiang's lover, she must be a very beautiful and outstanding woman.
But He Yu didn't ask. The relationship between him and Qiao Mudong was simple and clear, and he didn't want to know too much.Once people get to know each other too deeply, the relationship will easily deteriorate.
Ling Qiang has always been strict about the details. During the meeting, he can speak out loudly if he has a problem, but he is not allowed to whisper. He can answer the phone, but the phone must be turned on to vibrate.
Qiao Mudong came in a hurry, he left his mobile phone in the office and didn't take it with him. At this time, he was absent-minded, staring at the pen on the table.
