After living for 31 years, He Qiao has fled the deserted times countless times, and today is probably the most embarrassing one.

He was afraid that Fang Shaoyang would continue to catch up, so he didn't even go back to the banquet hall. He wandered outside for a long time before getting on the tram and walking back slowly.At this time, the meeting had already ended, and He Lixian didn't wait for him to go home first, leaving the driver still waiting at the door.

"Mr. He, where have you been?"

"Walking around."

After getting in the car, He Qiao looked out the window, and the black car slowly drove into the thick night.

The driver looked at his words and said, "I think your complexion is not very good, do you need to call a doctor to come to the house to have a look?"

"No need, have all the people at the venue left?"

"It's almost gone, only Mr. Fang from Beishan and a few others are left."

Guessing that Fang Shaoyang was still waiting for him, he remained silent, and heard the driver discuss cautiously: "The chairman specifically asked me to wait for you at the door, and said that he hoped you could go home tonight. Soup."

How could the son of man not understand his father's hard work.He Qiao was silent for a while, then nodded slightly: "Then go back."

"Okay, okay." The driver finished the task and immediately smiled.

When he got home, his parents were waiting for him in the living room, and the atmosphere at home was like an enemy.

"Dad, Mom, why haven't you slept yet?" He calmly took off his coat.

"How can we sleep if you don't come back?" He Li raised his eyebrows first, "Where did you go at night, and you won't answer the phone or text."

Hearing that the tone was too harsh, the mother couldn't bear it anymore, so she stood up and pulled He Qiao to come and sit down: "Oh, your father blamed you for leaving him there alone. He is like a child when he is old, and he is afraid that he will be alone. Wait. Come and sit down, are you thirsty, do you want some water?"

"Mom, don't be busy. I'll go upstairs to rest after sitting down for a while." His exhaustion was written on his face, and after sitting down, he lowered his head and slowly straightened the coat in his hand, "Just ask whatever you want."

The old couple didn't expect him to be so direct. After looking at each other, Mother He pushed Father He, and her eyes signaled him to hurry up.He Li cleared his throat first, and acted like a strict father: "You can't be found anywhere tonight, did you go to see Fang Shaoyang?"

"Ah."

"I knew it, you, you—" He's mother poked his forehead like a child, "How old is he? You don't know what he is like? Except There's nothing good about being younger. Don't say that the Fang family wants to give him some color now, even if there is no Fang family, I don't agree with you meeting him again. "

Both in and out of the words revealed the dissatisfaction of the other party, Shao Yang.It's not that the old couple are snobbish. The father-in-law and mother-in-law first looked down on Shao Yang who was young and not stable enough, and secondly, the knot in his heart had not been resolved so far, so he was very angry.

"Since we met..." He Lixian breathed a sigh of relief and asked seriously, "Did he look for you or did you look for him?"

He Qiao felt a little dumbfounded in his heart, and lightly pressed the suit on his knees with both hands: "No one is looking for anyone, it's just a few words when they meet, you don't need to be so nervous."

It's impossible not to be nervous, so my mother carefully inspected him from top to bottom, and was relieved after confirming that he was intact: "What's there to talk about, our family has nothing to say to him, and we will meet again in the future." You must remember to stay away from him, do you hear me?"

"understood."

"Don't be perfunctory to your mother and me. If I find out that this kid is pestering you, I'll let Zhipeng break his leg."

Zhipeng is their driver.

He Qiao finally laughed.Remembering that Fang Shaoyang's legs were not very sharp during the two meetings, he felt it was a coincidence, and his tone became much more relaxed: "He said he wanted to see Dad tonight, but he didn't dare to come and be rejected."

"You still dare to come to see me." He Li snorted, and drove He's mother upstairs, "You go to bed first, I still have a few words to say to my son."

"What can't I hear?" Mother He complained and took all the cups and everything to the kitchen, "Say less, I'm tired even if my son isn't tired."

"Got it, got it, go up quickly." He Li waved her away first, and sat upright looking at He Qiao.

The sound of slippers became farther and farther away, and the living room was silent for a while.

He Qiao looked past his father to look at the things on the table, and only then noticed that his father should be looking at Rong Xin's documents before he came back.I thought that my father got involved only because of the rift with Fang Shaoyang, and he would not seriously analyze and think about it. I didn't expect that it was me who judged the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

He took the document and flipped through a few pages, and found that it was the research report of Rongxin in the past five years, which detailed the performance of Rongxin at home and abroad in the past five years, and introduced the business divisions and product lines very clearly.

"This is an internal document." He Lixian put on his glasses, and his expression became serious when he was talking about business, "I got it through my old relationship."

"Dad, do you want to..."

"I want to know which of the two brothers is better, so that I can make a clear judgment before the board meeting."

Although he has been in business for many years, after all, Jiang is still old and spicy. He Qiao has no room to play tricks in front of his father, and instead looks like a junior who listens to teachings.He asked softly: "So you already have a judgment?"

He Li leaned back and stared at him cautiously: "Never mind if I have one or not, now I want to hear your opinion."

Under his gaze, He Qiao leaned forward slightly, crossed his fingers in front of him, and his knuckles were slightly white.After a while, the clenched fingers slowly relaxed: "Fang Shaoyang should be better in terms of vision, practicality, and potential. Fang Huaiye's only advantage lies in experience, but experience is not a core competitiveness. Fang Shaoyang will easily catch up. What's more, this kind of experience can easily make him self-willed and not listen to other people's opinions, which has been reflected in the Lingxi incident."

"You see clearly." He Lixian rarely praised him.

This kind of understanding is very difficult, because it is not easy to completely abandon personal bias, not to mention that there are various disputes between several people, and many things will affect his judgment on them.

As soon as the father and son's eyes met, He Lixian looked into his eyes sharply: "But you missed a little bit in your analysis just now."

He Qiao opened his eyes slightly.

"Character."

My father tapped the paper warningly: "Character always comes first, and ability and vision should be in the back row. No matter how bad Fang Huaiye is, at least he is not as scheming as Fang Shaoyang."

The last four words stung He Qiao's ears for some reason.He paused for a moment, then said flatly: "Fang Huaiye may not be very upright."

He Lixian narrowed his eyes: "How do you say that?"

"This is just my personal feeling." Except for Shao Ningzhu's death, He Qiao really couldn't come up with more evidence, "I have known him for a long time, and I have a certain understanding of him. Although he is not Treacherous and evil, but not as magnanimous as the surface."

He Lixian didn't take it seriously: "A gentleman doesn't care about his deeds, his feelings can't be accurate."

"Maybe." He Qiao didn't want to argue with his father, so he put down his argument.

"However, I will consider what you said." He Lixian put away the documents, "I'm not saying that Fang Huaiye is the only one, but I think Rong Xin will walk more steadily with him."

He Qiao smiled: "The other meaning of steady is slow."

Fang Huaiye lacks groundbreaking work, always running behind other people's buttocks, and his thinking methods are not flexible enough.With him in Rongxin, he might not be able to die for a while, but it is even more difficult to become a leader in the industry.He Lixian let out a sigh of dissatisfaction, but he couldn't find anything to refute him, so he had to put on a straight face and thought about it.

"Dad, I'll go up first."

Not long after, He Qiao got up and walked upstairs, but He Lixian stopped him before he reached the second floor, "Wait a minute."

He turned around, and the father and son looked at each other quietly.

"Actually, there is another important reason why I don't agree to vote for Fang Shaoyang, and that is that I don't want you to get in touch again."

There was a feeling of seeing through everything in his father's eyes.

He opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while.Not only guilty, but also a little ashamed.

"Actually we..."

I don't know whether to clear up or intercede for Fang Shaoyang.

Father He pressed down with his right hand: "Needless to say, knowing a son is like a father. I'm afraid I understand better than you what you think. If you put aside the personal relationship between your children, you are indeed more optimistic about Fang Shaoyang, am I not You can't give him a chance to meet. But you have to promise me to handle the matter between you and him carefully. Your mother and I are both old, and there is only one son like you, so we can't stand any more storms."

After a few seconds of silence, He Qiao's eyes were a little moist, and he said "Thank you Dad".

—

When I returned to the room, I found that the floor-to-ceiling windows were open, probably because my mother specially opened them for ventilation.

He went to close the window, and the soft curtains blowing on his face in the wind suddenly made the back of his neck a little itchy.I reached out to touch it, only to find a small red envelope behind my ear, probably because Fang Shaoyang rubbed it too hard at that time.

Where did such a fierce dog come from, with a vicious and stubborn personality, reckless and impulsive actions, and so irresponsible in dealing with feelings.However, He Qiao liked him so much at the beginning and kept him by his side, even though he was bitten and bruised all over his body, he still refused to let go.

Now He Qiao was injured by him again, but the wound was so small that it seemed insignificant, but it was not a good sign after all.

After taking a bath, he applied some medicine to himself, and then covered the spot with his hair very deliberately so that he couldn't see it.

Sitting by the window quietly lost in thought, inadvertently, the pent-up pain in my heart seemed to be much less.It cannot be said that it was all because of Fang Shaoyang, but I have to admit that every frankness and apology Fang Shaoyang made dispelled many of his self-tortures, and at the same time gave him a chance to breathe for his long-suppressed feelings.

Can breathe a sigh of relief, those things that he can't forget.You don't need to deliberately force yourself not to care, you don't need to deliberately force yourself to forget, just be natural and follow your heart.

It was already 12 o'clock in the morning when I picked up the phone again.An hour ago, Shao Yang sent him a message: "Have you left? If you haven't left, I will wait for you at the door of the hotel. Black Mercedes lbxxxxx will take you back."

It's been so long, he should have left.

Putting down his phone, He Qiao forced himself to read a book, but he couldn't concentrate.After a long while, I finally replied: "Thank you for your kindness, I have already left."

I thought it would take a while before I heard back, but I didn't expect the phone to vibrate before I closed the book.

"Did you get home safely? I asked the people at the hotel, and they all said they hadn't seen your car."

Is he still waiting there?He Qiao pursed his lips, and slowly typed a few words with his fingers: "Rong Yue came to pick it up."

Didn't mean to make him jealous or anything, just didn't want to give him any illusions.As it is now, they are neither friends nor enemies, at most they are acquaintances who met once, which is also very good, at least they will not be hurt again.

This time there was no response for five or six minutes.

Five or six minutes later, it was still the same person and the same number: "Did you go to his house?"

Looking out of the window, He Qiao suddenly had an intuition in the dim light that Fang Shaoyang was downstairs in his apartment.I didn't wait for anyone, and I didn't see the lights on, so I asked this question.

The tiger's mouth holding the mobile phone felt a little numb, and my heart came alive, not as numb as it was in the past year and a half.

"Ah."

After deliberating over and over again, he still replied such a word.

The word "typing" on the dialog box appears and disappears, disappears and appears again, and repeats several times.Finally, Fang Shaoyang said: "Then don't bother me."
