The paranoid milk dog is actually me

evening.

Peninsula Hotel.

This five-star hotel, which can monopolize the entire lakeside area in Manbei City, where land is very expensive, is brightly lit at this moment, and one luxury car after another is parked in front of the gate.

"Do it!"

Just as Xie Anheng opened his car door, he heard a loud voice before he could step out.

Xie Xing got out of the car and smiled at the person who came: "Boss Zhao, long time no see."

"Hahaha!" Zhao Hongjun laughed heartily and came over to pat him on the shoulder, his face beaming with joy, "I'm almost staring straight here, just waiting for you to come over."

"An Heng has a match today, so it took a little longer and made Boss Zhao wait for a long time."

Xie Xingzhi has a good impression of this forthright and enthusiastic partner, and feels relaxed and happy every time he sees him.

Zhao Hongjun said "Oh", and quickly turned to Xie Anheng: "Anheng is playing a promotion match in that fighting club today, right? Zhi Yin just mentioned it to me, look at my brain, it's getting worse and worse."

Xie Anheng nodded to him: "Yes, Uncle Zhao."

"Okay, okay, how was the game? Forget it, don't ask, you must have won!" Zhao Hongjun's smile never came off his face, "Zhi Yin is waiting inside, you two juniors have a good relationship, it's rare to see each other There must be a lot of things to say in one meeting, so let’s go in first.”

He raised his foot and was about to leave, but suddenly he said "Huh" again: "Did Cen Xiangyang not come today? I still like that young man very much. Just now my son asked him if he would come today."

"Here we are, here we are, Uncle Zhao." Cen Xiangyang, who was left behind to park the car, ran over bouncing.

"Dad." Another young man walked out of the hotel door, with short light gray hair, tall and thin.

He inherited Zhao Hongjun's handsome facial features, especially the high bridge of the nose, which is very eye-catching: "Let's talk in the hotel, the lakeside is humid at night, you will..."

Zhao Hongjun waved his big hand quickly: "Go, go, go in quickly, don't stand outside and show yourself!"

He led Xie Xingzhi and the others into the hotel lobby, and said in a low voice, "I don't even know what kind of madness he is, and he suddenly went to dye his hair white. What do you think it looks like when you have all your hair white at a young age? This Can it look good?"

Cen Xiangyang gloated: "It's called grandma's gray, but it's popular, and many girls are wearing it."

Zhao Hongjun became even angrier when he heard this, and it was hard for him to get angry in front of so many people, so he glared at Zhao Zhiyin: "It's your An Heng who is sensible for messing around with all these tricks all day long."

"Young people try a new hair color, it looks pretty." Xie Xingzhi laughed dumbly, and helped to change the subject, "By the way, the land in the west of the city, tonight..."

Xie Anheng paused: "Do you still want to talk about this tonight?"

"Of course we want to talk about it! This is what we want to talk about tonight." Zhao Hongjun stopped scolding his son, nodded and laughed, "This He family is really an old fox, guess what? They actually said that they will talk about it at the end of today's banquet Announce the results of the bidding."

"Speaking of which, I heard that this matter was entrusted to Xie Anheng?" Zhao Hongjun's eyes curled into slits with a smile, "Sure enough, a hero is born in a young age, and he can help your brother with such an important matter at such a young age !"

Xie Xingzhi glanced at Xie Anheng, and was quite proud: "He is very talented in business, and I am most at ease entrusting him to him."

Xie Anheng's face froze, his eyelashes drooped and he didn't answer.

"Look, the young man is still very humble." Zhao Hongjun admired him even more, "Is it embarrassing for your brother to praise you?"

Xie Xingzhi: "The child has a thin skin."

Xie Anheng pursed her lips and forced a smile.

The three of them entered the banquet hall talking and laughing, but did not notice that Cen Xiangyang and Zhao Zhiyin were falling further and further behind them.

If you look carefully, you will find that Cen Xiangyang wants to go forward to keep up with Xie Xingzhi, but Zhao Zhiyin just doesn't let him go.

Seeing that Cen Xiangyang wanted to get rid of him, Zhao Zhiyin simply grabbed his wrist and pulled him back: "I agree to you letting me dye my hair white, so when will you fulfill your promise to me?"

Cen Xiangyang tried hard to pull his wrist back: "Fuck you, when did I promise you something? Why don't I remember?"

But this man's hand is extremely strong, and he grasps it tightly.

"I warn you, just speak well when you speak, and don't touch me." Cen Xiangyang was annoyed, and stared at him in a low voice, "Otherwise, I don't mind letting your face bloom in front of your father, and I am worthy of you." This white hair."

Zhao Zhiyin: "You want to renege on your debt?"

"I'll tell your little brother tomorrow that you brother Yang can't do what you promised me, so words don't count."

"..." Cen Xiangyang's eyes widened, "If you can't afford it, you can sue? Are you a fucking elementary school student?"

Zhao Zhiyin's eyes did not budge, and he looked at him calmly.

After a moment of stalemate, Cen Xiangyang really couldn't bear the curious and probing eyes of people coming and going.

He took out his phone and unlocked it: "Okay, I promise you, I will report your number."

With nothing in his hands, Zhao Zhiyin had already taken the phone.

Cen Xiangyang: "You..."

Before the sound of the second word came out, Zhao Zhiyin handed the phone back to him.

"The number is saved, and the note is my name."

He spoke very seriously, but Cen Xiangyang took the phone back and stuffed it into his pocket without even looking at him.

"If you dare to text and call me while I'm sleeping, I'll rush to your house and let you know why the flowers are so red."

That's what he said, but he thought about secretly deleting his number later.

Zhao Zhiyin: "I won't bother you when you're resting, don't delete me."

"..."

When the two of them entered the hall again, Xie Xingzhi and his group just found their seats.

Xie Anheng pulled out the chair skillfully: "Brother, sit down."

When Xie Xingzhi sat down, he poured warm water again, pushed it to the former's hand, and glanced at the dishes on the table while he was arranging the tableware: "The dishes here don't seem to suit my brother's taste."

They were all heavy oil, and Xie Xingzhi really lost his appetite when he saw them.

But Xie Xingzhi didn't come here to eat, so he didn't move his chopsticks: "It's okay, I ate a lot at noon, and I'm not very hungry."

But Xie Anheng shook his head: "There are still ingredients at home. After the banquet is over, I'll make a bowl of clear soup for my brother. Do you want to eat it?"

Hearing those four words, and looking at the light dishes in front of him, Xie Xingzhi didn't want to stay here any longer: "Deliberately greedy me?"

Xie Anheng lowered his head and curled his mouth: "Where is it?"

Seeing his smile, Xie Xingzhi moved his lips, and leaned forward to pinch his face to tease him.

"Thank you sir!"

A woman in a long skirt walked towards him gracefully holding a wine glass, and she was leading another girl by her side.

She let go of the girl's hand, and smiled at Xie Xingzhi: "Mr. Xie, I have long admired your name."

"You are?" Xie Xingzhi stood up.

The woman met his eyes, her eyes flickered shyly, but she still smiled softly: "My surname is Xu, Xu Wan, and this is my sister Xu Sisi. The company at home has cooperated with Mr. Xie's company in Puping Port. I don't know if you still remember?"

Puping Harbor...

Xie Xingzhi paused for a moment, then remembered: "I remember, it was your mother who came to talk about the cooperation at that time."

When he said this, Xu Wan's eyes widened quite a bit: "Yes! I was there at the time, but I didn't speak at that meeting. Maybe the husband doesn't have an impression of me."

It has been a long time since the incident, let alone the one who did not speak, is the old lady of the Xu family. To be honest, Xie Xingzhi can't remember her appearance very well.

Sensing his hesitation, Xu Wan raised her hand to brush the hair beside her ears, her eyelashes drooping: "However, I am very impressed with Mr. Xie."

Xu Sisi: "Ever since my sister came back that day, she always said Mr. Xie in my ears, and praised you so much that there is nothing in the sky."

Xie Xingzhi was taken aback by the little girl's directness.

"Sisi..." Xu Wan blushed, and she raised her glass, "I do admire Mr. Xie very much. I am really happy to meet you again this time."

"I feel like there is some kind of fate between Mr. Xie and I, so I want to come to offer a toast. I wish Mr. Xie's business goes smoothly and flourishes day by day."

"Thank you."

Xie Xingzhi also saluted her back, said some blessings to the Xu family, and touched her with the wine glass.

He was about to take a sip, but he was thinking about how to get out of this situation.

Of course Xie Xingzhi could see what Xu Wan was thinking, but he had heard of this daughter of the Xu family in his previous life.

A beauty is beautiful, but her temperament is completely different from her weak appearance. She is a very powerful and ruthless character. In order to inherit the family, she can use any means.

Suddenly, a hand reached out and covered the mouth of his cup.

Xie Anheng stood up: "Brother, the doctor told you not to drink alcohol."

He exchanged the juice in his hand with the wine glass in Xie Xingzhi's hand: "Drink this."

Xie Xingzhi was changed by him for the wine glass, and he couldn't help laughing: "I really became a little housekeeper."

"I don't want my brother to have a stomachache again." Xie Anheng didn't back down.

Not knowing whether it was intentional or not, he stood in front of Xie Xingzhi, completely blocking the pair of sisters.

"Huh?" Xu Wan moved half a step to the side, "This is..."

"It's my brother Xie Anheng." It's not decent for others to toast with a glass of juice in return, so Xie Xingzhi simply put down the glass.

With his help, Xie Xingzhi smiled apologetically; "He is responsible for the cooperation project with your company. Strictly speaking, this glass of wine should indeed be respected to him."

"With such an outstanding elder brother teaching, it's no wonder that my younger brother can achieve achievements at a young age."

Xu Wan complimented.

"Sorry, it's not convenient for my brother to drink." Xie Anheng held his used wine glass, "I'll toast you for my brother."

He raised his head and poured all the wine in the glass into his mouth with a chic posture.

"Brother Xie is really good at drinking!" Xu Sisi was obviously more interested in Xie Anheng, and his eyes lit up.

Xie Anheng glanced at Xu Sisi, and pointed to the seat opposite him gracefully: "What do you two want to know, why don't we go over there and sit down and talk?"

Xu Wan is not a fool either, after a few conversations, she can tell that Xie Xingzhi is not as easy to coax as the other men she has seen, and now there is a young and handsome younger brother who just suits her heart.

"Okay, I do have a lot of things I don't understand, so I will trouble you." She followed Xie Anheng's words with a smile, took her sister by the hand, and sat across from him.

A pair of sisters who came to look for him were attracted by Xie Anheng in a blink of an eye. Xie Xingzhi sat back in his original position, holding the goblet full of fruit juice, and blinked slowly.

"This kid is promising." Cen Xiangyang saw the scene where Xie Anheng sat down with the Xu sisters, "As soon as you come to such a banquet, you know how to chat with beautiful women."

Zhao Zhiyin who was beside him raised his head and glanced at the words.

Although the purpose of this pair of sisters is not pure, but just looking at their looks like this, it is still very pleasing to the eye when a handsome man and a beautiful woman are paired together.

Xie Xingzhi knew that with Xie Anheng's character, he would not suffer any disadvantage from the pair of sisters.

He took a few more glances, and turned his head reassuringly: "In high school, there were also many little girls who sent him love letters. When they are adults, if there is someone they like, it is normal to fall in love."

"Wow, Brother Xingzhi, you are too enlightened!" Cen Xiangyang exaggeratedly exclaimed, "Do you know? When I was in high school, I received a love letter, and my father almost broke my leg."

Zhao Zhiyin: "If I were your father, I would beat you too."

Cen Xiangyang: "It's up to you? It's almost as good as being my son."

Xie Xingzhi lowered his head and took a sip of the juice, holding back his smile: "An Heng has his own sense of propriety, and it would be good for him to let him deal more with young people in this circle."

Cen Xiangyang said with emotion: "It's so good..."

On the other side of the table, after taking Xu Wan and Xu Sisi away from Xie Xingzhi, and always feeling that the latter's gaze was still on this side, Xie Anheng pursed his lips in displeasure.

He drooped his brows and eyes, and listened absently to the girl talking in his ear, but in fact his attention was all on Xie Xingzhi and Cen Xiangyang.

"Xie Anheng, Xie Anheng?" Xu Wan yelled twice, but the young man in front of him didn't seem to respond, as if he was distracted.

After waiting for a few more seconds, Xie Anheng heard Xie Xingzhi say: "But he is still young, so don't worry about these things, and focus on his studies and career."

He finally raised his head and raised his lips to look at Xu Wan: "What did Miss Xu say?"

Originally, she should be very angry to be ignored after saying something, but Xu Wan suddenly lost her temper when she looked at Xie Anheng's calm and deep black eyes: "What were you thinking just now? So fascinated?"

"It's nothing." Xie Anheng hid the emotion in his eyes, "Let's talk about what Ms. Xu cares about? Besides the seaside project, what other projects does the Xu family want to cooperate with us?"

In the second half of the banquet, the young master of the He family, the host, came late: "Good evening, everyone!"

The He family was the most beautiful family in Manbei City in the past, but now it has declined and had to sell most of the family property, which is why today's banquet is held.

As soon as his voice sounded, the hall was immediately quiet.

"Finally here." Zhao Hongjun was very happy, "If he doesn't come again, I plan to go directly to Mr. He to ask them for a bid winning notice."

Xie Xingzhi was also in a good mood: "They have always been very good at whetting people's appetites."

Zhao Hongjun: "Haha, it doesn't matter! No matter what happens, the final result will not escape. I have a million confidence in what you do!"

The Xu family sisters had already returned to their mother's table just now, and Xie Anheng sat back beside Xie Xingzhi.

When he saw the Young Master of the He family, his eyes flickered inexplicably, lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on Xie Xingzhi's side, seeming a little uneasy.

"Thank you very much for coming. I think everyone can't wait to know the final result of this bidding." He smiled and looked around at the people in the hall.

Some people couldn't wait any longer: "Don't be secretive, just say it!"

"That's right. I thought I would get good news as soon as I came, but I insisted on waiting until the banquet is over to announce it."

The man was not annoyed when he heard such words, and replied with a smile: "If I had told you from the beginning, everyone would not have stayed here to enjoy these delicacies."

The two who had just spoken were amused by his frankness, and the atmosphere in the hall became lively.

"Okay, then I won't talk nonsense, please watch the big screen!" With a wave of his hand, he turned on the screen directly in front of him.

There is a long row of project names above, each followed by the name of the winning bidder.

"Our He family doesn't have much property, and most of it may not be able to catch your eyes. I also know that this time everyone is most concerned about the land in the west of the city." He Dashao said with a smile, "A lot of people came today, Release this result, I'm afraid it will offend 90 people present."

There was a few sparse laughs off the court, everyone here is a veteran in the mall, and everyone is smarter than a fox, and they are not too cold about this kind of scene.

Xie Xingzhi didn't have much interest in listening, he came here today for only one purpose, to take the land in the west of the city into his hands.

This project is of great importance, and its success will directly affect the development of his and Zhao Hongjun's follow-up companies.

But Xie Xingzhi has great confidence in Xie Anheng.

In his previous life, he was able to bid successfully by himself alone. In this life, under his teaching, Xie Anheng was many times stronger than he was before. There is no reason to fail. Entrusting him can also exercise his ability.

He Dashao: "But no matter what, the results still have to be announced, let's see who can make everyone jealous—"

Almost everyone in the hall held their breath subconsciously.

The screen changes.

"Mr. Xia Jinghui!" Young Master He grinned almost to the ear, "Congratulations, Mr. Xia!"

There was a sigh of "Oh" off the court, but it seemed that everyone was not particularly surprised that the Xia family won this project.

Except for Xie Xingzhi and his group.

He was stunned for half a second in disbelief, and then his heart sank to the bottom.

Xie Xingzhi immediately looked at Xie Anheng, the latter looked a little dodgy, as if he wanted to say something to him.

"The final results of all the rest of the projects are here, please compare them yourself." Hearing the renewed discussion in the hall, the young master of the He family raised his hand, "The notice and all other documents will be delivered after the banquet is over." to the winning bidder."

"Everyone has worked hard, our He family wishes everyone present a prosperous business!"

"This... this, this, this..." As soon as Young Master He left, Zhao Hongjun stood up on the spot, "All right, what's going on?!"

"Boss Zhao, don't worry." Xie Xingzhi supported Zhao Hongjun.

"Xiao Xie, didn't you promise me that this project would definitely be won? What happened?"

The other people brought by Zhao Hongjun also echoed.

"Yes, Mr. Xie, this is different from what you said at the time!"

"Then what should we do? We've invested so much in front of us, so it's all in vain?"

"I said earlier that he was still too young, and he gave the project to his younger brother to practice. It's really unreliable. Lao Zhao still doesn't listen to me."

This group of people discussed a lot, and Xie Xingzhi became the target of public criticism for a while.

Xie Anheng stood up from his seat with a "huh": "It's mine..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Xie Xingzhi raised his hand and pressed it back, blocking him by the way: "Boss Zhao, there is actually something hidden about this project, it's inconvenient here, let's take a step to talk."

"Okay, okay, if you have any secrets, please tell me quickly, and you have to think about a solution." Zhao Hongjun still trusted him very much, nodded repeatedly and walked to the private room on the other side with Xie Xingzhi.

Xie Anheng watched Xie Xingzhi and Zhao Hongjun leave, and clenched his fists under the table.

"Mr. Xia, I really congratulate you. It is not a small sum to be able to manage the large area in the west of the city. Only the Xia family has this financial power in the entire Manbei City."

Suddenly, a flattering male voice came from the ear.

"Don't worry, the He family has also contributed a lot to this matter, and will not forget you."

"Hey hey, okay, okay, it's my honor to work for Mr. Xia, it's already good if you can remember our He family."

The deep voice in the middle was too familiar, Xie Anheng looked over and saw Xia Jinghui passing by him side by side with the young master of the He family.

As if aware of it, Xia Jinghui glanced at him.

His phoenix eyes were slightly raised, and after only a moment of eye contact, he casually looked away, as if Xie Anheng didn't exist at all.

Xie Anheng's lips were pursed into a straight line.

He watched Xia Jinghui's back with a calm expression until the latter walked out of the hall completely.

"Hey, Xie Anheng, when your brother comes out later, you have to admit your mistake to him, it's okay, your brother loves you the most, and won't be angry." Cen Xiangyang couldn't see him like this, and moved over to comfort him.

Xie Anheng didn't speak.

Xie Xingzhi had never been angry with him. He defended him and loved him. He has been like this since he was a child, pampering him at the top of his heart.

But this time is different.

Cen Xiangyang: "Isn't it? Is it really so serious?"

Xie Anheng gave a low "um".

"Dong Dong" twice.

The table behind him was knocked twice with his fingers.

Xie Anheng turned around.

Xie Xingzhi came over and pressed his shoulder, lowering his eyes: "Come with me."

Without waiting for him after finishing speaking, he walked out of the hall.

Zhao Hongjun has also returned, apparently what Xie Xingzhi said to him calmed his emotions well, and now he is toasting with his group of friends, and his face has recovered.

Xie Anheng stood up, Zhao Zhiyin walked beside him, and said in a low voice: "Go and explain to your brother, this is not your fault in the first place."

"..."

Zhao Zhiyin knew a little about this project, but only Xie Anheng knew the specific reasons.

He nodded expressionlessly, and quickly followed the figure in front of him.

"Brother?" Xie Anheng went out and saw Xie Xingzhi leaning against the fence outside with an unlit cigarette between his fingers.

He looked up sharply.

Xie Xingzhi never smoked, and even hated the smell of smoke.

"Come here." Xie Xingzhi said to him.

Xie Anheng hurried forward.

Xie Xingzhi turned his head slightly: "You know how important this project is to us, right?"

Xie Anheng whispered, "I know."

Xie Xingzhi: "Know? How did you guarantee me when I handed it over to you?"

Xie Anheng's lips moved, and he swallowed the words back.

A moment of silence.

Xie Xingzhi finally spoke again: "I paid Boss Zhao [-]% of the company's profits in these two quarters."

Xie Anheng's fingers hanging by his side trembled.

Looking at him quietly for a while, Xie Xingzhi asked: "What is the reason why this matter was not done well? Not only did it fail to do it well, but it has been hiding it from all of us until now? Tell me."

"..."

"Can't tell?" Xie Xingzhi was really surprised this time.

"Brother." He raised his head, "I didn't mean to hide it from you..."

A person who is usually eloquent can't get half a complete sentence out of his mind at this time, Xie Anheng repeatedly opened his mouth several times: "I don't want to disappoint you, brother...I..."

"Don't want to disappoint me?" He saw Xie Xingzhi put the cigarette on the railing, twist it, and finally folded it in half.

He thought Xie Xingzhi would get angry, but he didn't.Those maroon pupils were as quiet as a lake.

Xie Anheng felt that the cold water in the lake covered his head.

"I'm really disappointed."
