[Comprehensive] IQ knocks on the door

Stine had no idea what was inside.Even if she doesn't know what's in it, Augustine can't give it away.

Thinking of Augustine's thoughts, he did not give the gift to Jones immediately, but smiled gently: "Father, there is nothing expensive in it. I hope you don't mind."

Jones smiled and said, "You and my father and son, why do you deliberately send some expensive gifts to please me? As long as you want it, it will be fine."

Augustine seemed to hesitate for a moment, then he looked at Abel behind Jones who was glaring at him and suggested: "The elders and the younger are in order, how can I be ashamed to give father a gift first? Why don't father look at the gifts of the brothers and sisters first."

Augustine was sure of his previous behavior. The secretary had already told Jones that he wanted Jones to think that he wanted to use cheap gifts to save his face, so he asked Jones to see the gifts from his children to set it off. The cheapness of his gift proves that the relationship between their father and son is not good.

If he was right and the gift in his hands was worth a lot, then Jones would definitely agree to this trivial request just to warn him.

And the gift prepared by the secretary couldn't have appeared out of thin air, Jones had prepared this spare tire early in the morning.And his kids make sure to research what Jones has been eyeing lately before preparing presents to please him.If he's lucky, his gift will definitely collide with his sibling's gift!

As expected by Augustine, Jones had a smirk on his face, he glanced at Augustine with a warning in his eyes, and said, "Okay, it doesn't matter if you look at your sibling's gift first. "

As he said that, he smiled gently at the three siblings of the Jones family, with two degrees of warmth in his expression: "Cash, you are the eldest brother, you come first."

Cash smiled and said, "Good father." He handed the beautifully wrapped gift to Jones: "I remember that you admired Mr. Da Vinci very much, and I was lucky to buy a restoration from my friend. I hope you enjoy the manuscript of Mr. Leonardo da Vinci."

Jones was slightly surprised, obviously he didn't expect the gift of Cash to be so precious. Jones took the gift and did not open it, but handed it to the secretary beside him.It is good that he likes Da Vinci, but today he will not allow anything to completely overshadow Augustine's next gift: "Cash, there is no suspense if you do this. This gift could have been given to Da Vinci." I was pleasantly surprised." Jones paused, looked at Cash's stiff expression, and joked again: "Besides, I don't want to let outsiders see such a precious manuscript."

Cash looked slightly relieved, and he said, "I didn't think it through, father."

Beryl smiled and interjected, "That's right, brother. Once your gift comes out, mine will be overshadowed." As she said, she stuffed the gift in Jones's arms: "Dad, although my gift is not as good as big brother's. It's precious, but you can't dislike it!"

Beryl's gag made the previously stiff atmosphere warm.

Jones looked at Beryl mildly, he reached out and rubbed her head appreciatively and opened the gift box with a smile.

Inside were six tickets to Hawaii.

Beryl looked at Jones's expression and stuck out her tongue playfully: "Dad, you are so busy every day that you don't have time to spend with your family. This gift is for the affection between your family members, and for the selfish I hope you can spare time to take us out to play. Don't think my gift is cheap."

Jones took out six plane tickets, and his expression softened a bit. Beryl, his children, knew his heart best.The six air tickets not only relieved the embarrassment just now, but also seemed particularly warm.Even if Augustine gave some cheap gifts later on, with Beryl's sister's gift first, no one else could make a fuss about Augustine's gift.Moreover, these six air tickets obviously included Augustine, and no one can say that the relationship between their family is not good.

Beryl's gift of apprehension earned Jones a slight nod.Among his and Brown's children, Beryl was his favorite, but unfortunately, she was a girl, not enough to convince his subordinates.

Abel's face froze when he heard that Cash's gift was Da Vinci's manuscript, but he was very happy to see that Jones didn't open it on the spot, but passed it lightly.He originally wanted to give Jones a gift, but Beryl stepped in and showed himself first.

Abel was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it halfway on his face.He took out his gift, and abruptly interrupted Beryl's coquetry: "Father, this is a gift from me, I hope you like it."

Jones glanced at Abel, he knew he was careful.He didn't say anything, just accepted the gift.

Jones looked bad for a moment after opening the gift.

The corners of Augustine's mouth twitched slightly when he saw this, and he glanced, Abel gave him kopiluwak coffee.The most expensive coffee in the world.It costs about 300 dollars a pound, and it is difficult to buy in short supply. It is a treasure that coffee lovers do not want to miss.

It's precious in its own right, and Jones likes coffee too. Augustine could hardly find it out of place.Then there is only one possibility that Jones frowned reflexively when he saw the coffee.This coffee collided with his planB.

Lady luck is indeed on Augustine's side.The one who collided with him happened to be the most impulsive and rebellious of his three siblings, Abel Jones

Jones quickly closed the box and handed the gift to the secretary without saying a word.This move obviously poured a basin of cold water on Abel who was looking forward to it, and there was some discontent in his eyes.

With a thought in his mind, Augustine took two steps forward with the gift, and stood next to Abel calmly: "Since the brothers and sisters have finished giving the presents, it's my turn now."

Jones wanted to end up opening the present himself.But Augustine turned around and avoided it: "I have carefully prepared this gift for a long time." As he spoke, Augustine slowly unpacked the box: "I got it after a long time of begging according to my father's preferences. I hope my father likes it." Said He opened the package in front of Jones' ugly face.Sure enough, there was a can full of kopiluwak coffee beans inside, which was obviously much more than what Abel gave.

"I heard that my father likes coffee, so I specially asked someone to bring it back from Sumatra, the origin of coffee." Augustine said without any psychological burden: "This gift has cost me a lot of thought. Please help me. "Speaking Augustine handed the unwrapped gift to Jones.He felt the anger of the second brother beside him, and smiled with satisfaction.

Jones, what should you do?The same gift, given by Abel, caused you to show disdain, so I, an illegitimate child, should you show a smile?Aren't you afraid of offending Mrs. Jones next to you?But if you act nonchalantly, how do you create news about a father-son relationship?

I am waiting for your choice.

Mother 6

Jones had a smile on his face, but looked at Augustine with cold eyes.Fortunately, no one around pays attention to carrying a little.

Augustine looked into Jones' furious eyes, but there was no joy, no sadness, and of course no fear as he had expected.Just a feeling of waning interest.

He suddenly felt that doing so was boring and uninteresting.

Jones reached out to accept the gift when Abel bumped Augustine's elbow hard. Augustine let go of Abel's hand.The bottle containing the expensive coffee beans just fell to the ground and shattered.A lot of coffee beans were flicked everywhere, scattered all over the ground, and the ground was a mess.

The scene suddenly became a little dignified.

Cash despises Abel's little trick.But he was even more reluctant to side with Augustine and blame his own brother.He adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and he spoke with a long-educated gentle voice, completely opposite to Augustine's self-confidence: "Austin, I'm so sorry, Abel accidentally touched your gift. I think he didn't expect it either." Could it be that Abel just wanted to praise you, but he didn't expect that this intimate touch would knock this gift away."

He put the blame on Augustine with such an understatement, as if he didn't want to celebrate Jones' birthday, and he could express his dissatisfaction by throwing his gift in front of him.

Although Augustine did drop the present on purpose.

Augustine scratched her hair regretfully, and said in a troubled tone, "Cash doesn't need to apologize. I thought my father would take it soon so I didn't hold on too tightly. It's a pity that this coffee cost me a lot." Savings, I rarely spend so much money on things I don't care about." Jones' eyes flashed coldly when he was said to be something.

Seeing this, Augustine smiled and continued, "But it's a coincidence that my gift box Abel was hit, and it broke when it broke. I really can't give the same thing to my father."

Listening to Augustine secretly pointing out her little thoughts, the anger in Abel's eyes could hardly be restrained.But on the surface, he still had a good relationship with Augustine, which made him almost gnash his good teeth.

"I was not careful, and I will pay you back the money for this can of coffee beans after the banquet is over." Abel seemed to think of something, and he smiled maliciously at Augustine: "It's just that what should you give now?" To father?"

Augustine really felt that Abel was his godly assist and also Jones' pig teammate. Didn't he see that Jones looked at him with coldness and disappointment?At this time, peace of mind is the best choice.

Augustine shrugged regretfully, and said helplessly, "I'm sorry, father. I'll come back to give you a gift next time."

Abel said aggressively: "That would lose the point of a birthday present."

Jones had to interrupt Abel aloud: "It makes sense when the gift is given, Abel."

Abel was afraid that Jones would stop speaking, and there was some displeasure in his eyes.

Augustine inadvertently raised his hand, looked at the time, and the expensive watch fell into Abel's eyes.He had another plan.

"Austin, it's not good not to give your father a present, or you can give your father your watch. Presumably, your father won't dislike it because you used it." Abel thought it was a response to Augustine, but unexpectedly it happened Right in his arms.

Augustine raised his eyebrows, and really went to unfasten the watch on his hand.He pretended to be deliberately trying to offend Abel, and handed the watch to Jones: "Father, this watch is my favorite, and I would never give it to someone if they asked for it, but today is your birthday. You are the person I admire the most, so I am willing to give you my favorite things."

Jones frowned slightly because of Augustine's words, he took Augustine's watch and put it on his hand: "I will cherish it."

Augustine closed her eyes to hide the color in her eyes.He didn't do this without a reason, and the fact that he had been fighting Jones before was to make him more dissatisfied and start to worry about whether his plan would go on as planned.Then when Jones thought that she would never cooperate with him, Augustine suddenly changed her attitude and followed Jones' plan, with ups and downs, no matter how determined people have been, they will relax their vigilance and accept other people's kindness.In addition, Augustine didn't show resistance at the beginning, so the change of Augustine's attitude later brought less sense of disobedience to Jones.

In order not to make the change of her attitude seem abrupt, Augustine secretly provokes Abel, making her behavior look like she is angry with Abel.The young people's impetuosity will make Jones unconsciously feel contemptuous, so naturally he will not deliberately ponder the deep meaning behind Augustine's actions.

In the end, Augustine expressed his love for this watch. On the one hand, he cooperated with Jones to act, and on the other hand, he showed that he attached great importance to this watch. He used the media to let the public help him stare at Jones so that he did not take off the watch. reasons and opportunities.

Augustine never knew what to do.

Because of Augustine's 'cooperation', Jones' reporters naturally knew how to write tomorrow's block news.

Augustine completed her first task, and felt uncomfortable looking at Jones' satisfied dark expression.Suddenly he remembered the blank check in his pocket. The corners of Augustine's mouth curled up slightly, and he felt a little bad-hearted in his heart. He always felt that Jones would be a little bit unwilling not to respond to such a good occasion.

Thinking of Augustine covering the check in her pocket with one hand, the bad water came out wave after wave.

Jones wants to use him as a show, so how can he not pay some appearance fees?

Speaking of which, Augustine took out the check and handed it to Jones. Seeing his suddenly cold expression, she pretended to be very shy and smiled, blushing with embarrassment on her face: "Father, some time ago You said you would give me some startup funds, but I haven't made up my mind about what to do after thinking about it. Maybe I will go back to college to finish my studies later. I really don't know the number on this check How to fill it out, so you should take it back."

Some time ago, wasn't it the day when Augustine was just released from prison?Hearing the news, the eyes of some reporters lightened slightly. They just didn't know how to discredit Jones. According to Augustine's words, the check he issued at this time was given to him by Jones after he was released from prison.This can't help but make people think about it.

Although the parties involved didn't mean that much, when the reporters wrote, they could deliberately lead the matter to that side to induce the public to think in the other direction.Thinking of the reporters cheered up.

Jones calmed down for a moment and was lifted again. He looked at the smiling Augustine, wondering what he was thinking.

When Abel heard that Jones gave Augustine a check, he gave Augustine a ruthless wink, his angle was just right enough to see the denomination on the check.The first vacant unit is a check of one million, which makes Abel feel resentful and wronged. Some time ago, because of the revelation that he was adopting a star and his private style was chaotic, Jones, who was angry and indisputable, had forcibly froze his account regardless of his wife's objection. Card, there are only a few thousand yuan left in the living fund every month, how can Abel, who is used to living a luxurious life, bear it?I don't know how many times I have quarreled with my family because of this matter, but every time I get nothing.

Abel was originally grievous in his heart, but now that he saw his father actually giving such a large amount of money to his illegitimate son, he couldn't bear it.

Abel gritted his teeth and satirized: "Austin, you just keep what your father gave you. It's not like me, I don't even want to take it."

What Abel said was a little too much.Although his tone seemed to be complaining, it was very different from Beryl's acting like a baby before.Those present could hear the accusations in his words by looking at his face.

Cash finally couldn't see his younger brother acting stupid several times today. He took the first step and said, "Austin is away all year round, so his father will naturally give him more living expenses. Don't worry about things like Abel."

As soon as Cash finished speaking, he realized that his words were wrong, he pursed his lips and looked embarrassed.

Mrs. Jones looked at her husband's displeased expression and knew that her two children would inevitably be disciplined again after the banquet. She looked at the instigator with an unfriendly expression.

Augustine was really innocent this time, he really didn't count them this time.

Mrs. Jones pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Austin is growing up, and he also wants to be independent. He has been looking for his mother all these years, so he is not at home all the time. Pity the child's heart, and he has not found it for so many years. Jessica, I don't know where she went." Mrs. Jones lightly covered up Cash's slip of the tongue, and poured dirty water on Augustine's mother by the way, saying that she was heartless and ungrateful and didn't even care about her own son.

Normally, Augustine would be angry but not attack, but today.

The corpse on the autopsy table appeared in front of his eyes again, and Augustine's expression cracked for a while.

Mrs. Jones obviously saw it, and the corner of her mouth curled into a half-hearted sneer, and it was rare for her to look directly at Augustine, admiring his sadness.

Augustine lowered his eyes slightly to suppress the sadness in his eyes, he didn't want to show his weakness in front of this family.

Augustine did not answer, he still straightened his back under the sympathetic or disdainful eyes of the people around him, he did not follow Mrs Jones's words, but said to Jones: "Although I am outside, I don't like to use my home For the money, please take this check back, father."

A stern look flashed in Jones' eyes. He didn't accept it now, and whether he took back the check or not, he would confirm his reputation of bribing Augustine for his own schemes, especially if he took back the check, it would be equivalent to being severely beaten by Augustine. face.

Use your own money.

Jones' expression remained unchanged: "You really have to spend more money outside, you just keep this check. It saves you from being short of money and losing face outside."

Augustine looked rather distressed and said, "Otherwise, father, please fill in the number in front of this? Otherwise, I won't feel at ease no matter how I look at it."

Jones said: "I'm not sure how much money you're going to spend. Now that you're an adult, you have a sense of proportion. You fill in the numbers yourself, don't ask me."

This is what Augustine was waiting for, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Then I'll be rude, father."

Looking at Augustine's smiling face, Jones felt a bad feeling in his heart.

Mother 7

Augustine thought for a long time in distress, walked to a reporter, and wrote down a number on the check with a pen.

The reporter whose pen was borrowed was standing next to Augustine. The corners of his mouth twitched as he watched the numbers Augustine wrote on the check, his eyes admiring.

Augustine wrote down the pen, looked at the numbers on the check, and raised the corners of his mouth. He returned the pen to the reporter, walked back to Jones, and handed the check to Jones with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "Is this a little too much?"

Jones glanced at the number on the check and was taken aback for a moment. Unspeakable anger surged in his heart. He originally thought that Augustine would only take 900 million at most, but he didn't expect him to be so bold as to put a double digit in front of the million. !

Looking at the check worth 900 million denominations, even Jones's nerves ached a little. He looked up at Augustine, and met his mocking eyes. Jones' eyes sank slightly, since he made a move!

If you can say it out loud, if you want to go back on it, it's like slapping yourself in the face!But Jones was very unwilling to give Augustine 900 million!Now is an important juncture in the campaign, and it is impossible for him to spend such a large amount of money with air conditioning!As he expected, as long as he nods now, Nizi in front of him will turn around to withdraw money!

Although such a huge sum of money was taken away for no reason, although it would not hurt his muscles, it would definitely make him burnt out for a long time! Jones' eyes became sharp for a moment, and the just right amount of money that Augustine had grasped had to make him suspicious. Is it a coincidence, or did Augustine control his lifeline?

The former is fine, but if the latter... who is the ghost next to him?

Suspicious, Jones stared at Augustine, trying to read his face for clues.

Augustine smiled calmly, not reminding the person in front of him of the passage of time at all.

Jones didn't answer for a long time and the scene suddenly froze.

There was anger in Cash's eyes, and he had no doubt that Augustine was doing this to keep them down and lose face.

Mrs. Jones also felt upset when she looked at the check. She calmed down her rising anger and asked under her breath, "Augustine, what do you need so much money for?"

Augustine smiled back: "I have my own ideas, but I promise that this is doing a good job for our family. I believe it will give you a huge surprise afterwards."

There was discomfort in Beryl's eyes, she gritted her teeth and said: "Mom, Austin is studying at Caltech, and unfortunately he missed a year's tuition fees. There are so many things that need to be handled up and down."

Beryl's words implied that Augustine would use the money to buy a degree. She sneered at Augustine, but she didn't want Caltech to be one of the top universities in the United States, and many of the ladies present were talented students from Caltech. Beryl suggested that Augustine spent money to bribe teachers, which was to question the fairness and professionalism of Caltech.Beryl, who was dazzled by the check, didn't expect how many people she would offend with her words.

Jones twitched his lips, unable to smile.

What Augustine did stepped on his bottom line but didn't cross the safety zone. Jones felt angry but couldn't help it.He gritted his teeth and said, "If you want, just go and get the money. As long as you don't misuse the money, I will feel at ease."

Jones's forbearance pleased Augustine very well. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said cheerfully, "Thank you, father."

Jones secretly tricked the reporters into writing Augustine's asking for money as perverse and extravagant.To portray him as a dandy who only eats, drinks and has fun instead of a lone hero who fights alone has fundamentally ruined Augustine's reputation, saving him from always standing on the moral high ground to blackmail him.

But he didn't want Augustine to take back his hand, but instead of pocketing the check, he handed it to Cash.

He smiled shyly, looked at Cash who was suddenly stunned, and said, "Brother, didn't your company get cheated and lost a lot of money in the recent bidding? Father didn't make a move in order to train you, but I I don't want to see you burnt out because of the mistakes of your subordinates, so you can use the money to fill the vacancy."

When Jones heard this, he couldn't help but look at his eldest son with sharp eyes with suspicion.

Cash looked at the sincerity on Augustine's face, and really wanted to throw the check on his fake smile.But Augustine did talk about his heart. Cash’s company made mistakes in several sources of information due to confidentiality leaks, and lost a lot of money in several biddings. Forced acquisition, he went home several times to ask for help, although Mrs Jones wanted to help, but was always blocked by Jones, Cash said it was impossible not to resent!He bought Da Vinci's manuscript at a high price this time just to please Jones and let him take into account some father-son feelings and help him.But Jones didn't even unpack the gift, which took a lot of effort, and handed it to the assistant on the side without even looking at it. It was impossible to say that he didn't hate it.

Cash was a little dazed.He knew that Augustine must have no good intentions behind doing this, maybe he just wanted to use this check to make their father and son estranged.

But he tried every means to please, and Jones never extended a helping hand... Cash looked at the check for a long time without saying a word.

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Augustine's eyes, and he said again: "Brother, why don't you think about your second brother? The star he adopted before was pregnant. The second brother was listened to by his father at first, how did he raise the family? So even if It's for the second brother to accept the money."

When Abel's name was mentioned unexpectedly, the resentment froze on his face, looking a little funny.Abel was afraid of being punished for this matter, so he didn't dare to tell Jones. Originally, he wanted to secretly get the celebrity to have an abortion, but now that this matter was brought out by Augustine, it was impossible to keep it private.

For a moment, the surrounding eyes focused on Abel, making him a little ashamed.

Augustine stuffed the check into Cash's hand, Cash didn't push it away, but just stood there holding the check in his hand and didn't let it drop. Seeing this, Augustine chuckled and said, "Brother, you can take this money. The third sister usually doesn't have a lot of expenses, so naturally there is nothing to worry about if her father pays for her, but you and the second brother are different. How can the two men go out? Don’t even have money for entertainment? On the other hand, I have no ambitions and am still studying, and the money I earn from trading stocks on weekdays is enough, and I don’t need this check.”

After hearing Augustine's words, Cash's eyes became cold again. He couldn't help looking at his sister who had been standing silently from the corner of his eye, and suddenly remembered how much Jones loved her on weekdays, and his heart stretched out. A bit of complaint: A few days ago, if she was willing to persuade him, wouldn't he need to accept Augustine's sympathetic help today?

Yes, Augustine's rescue. The grievance in Cash made him forget that Augustine got the money from his father not long ago.

Augustine really had a good plan, a check that Jones used to scare him and bribe him, he filled in huge numbers and resent it, which made Jones and his son jealous and complain to each other, and Jones siblings were wary and alienated from each other.

It was a bad check, but Augustine was able to make big waves!

Augustine looked at Cash and Abel with a smile, the money was barely enough to cover the shortfall of Cash's company.But Abel is a greedy one, since Augustine called his name, he will not let go of such a piece of fat.I really don't know how far 900 million checks can make their brothers fight each other.

Mrs. Jones could see what Augustine was thinking.Or her years of misinterpreting Augustine's thoughts made her guess his thinking circuit this time.

Mrs. Jones knew that once Cash received the check, Jones' paranoia would make him very suspicious and suspicious of him for a long time to come.At this time, Mrs. Jones should have stopped Cash from accepting the check, but when she saw her eldest son's dazed and struggling expression, Mrs. Jones hesitated.She thought of the desperate company her son had worked so hard to manage.

Mrs. Jones relented.The situation in the early years made the relationship between her and her husband so weak that there was almost no relationship, and on the other side was her son...

It took Mrs Jones a few moments to make up her mind.The estrangement between father and son will be repaired in the future, even if it can't be repaired, Jones is suppressed by her, he can't do anything to Cash, on the other hand, if Cash has this money, the company may survive this crisis with great fortune in the future.

Maybe it will be blue out of blue.

Mrs. Jones made up her mind, and she chose to remain silent. If Jones dared to ask Cash for the money back after the banquet, she would be the first to refuse!

Augustine looked at the unpredictable expressions on everyone's faces, mocking in her heart. Dr. Lightman is right, he is indeed gifted in micro-expressions, he can guess [-]% or [-]% of what these people are thinking.

The money is moving.

And his provocation today can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.So what?It's just that they are trapped in the chess game, blindfolded and lost.

After all kinds of things were published in the newspapers today, Jones might praise him for his friendliness and filial piety in order to break the "rumors". The family has no quarrels and is harmonious.He is filial to his parents and filial to his brothers and sisters.If a scandal breaks out in the future, who can say that he is wrong at that time?

In the end, they ask for trouble.

Having accomplished her goal, but also planted hidden dangers, Augustine lost the mood to flirt with Jones.The trouble is that he can't leave first.It seemed so upsetting.

At this time, someone pushed the door and entered, and everyone unconsciously turned their eyes to the door, intending to know who it was that came so late.
