[Lou Li the Pretender] Orphan Note

As soon as the target for the establishment of the Suzhou branch was announced, the entire middle and upper floors of No. 76 exploded. Everyone wanted to know who would be responsible for the target for the preparation of the new branch. Of course, rumors soon spread that this target had been set by default. Wang Manchun, director of the Operations Department, was the default choice.

No matter how diverse the discussions are, the real decision-makers are silent.

At this moment, in Yoko Nantian's office, Minglou sat quietly at the table, sipping the hot tea in his hand, but did not say a word for a long time.

Yoko Nantian stood with her hands behind her back, with her back facing Minglou, looking out the window, she didn't seem to intend to speak.

If someone came in at this time, they would definitely be shocked by the strange and peaceful atmosphere.

But it happened that the two of them were waiting for the other to lose their temper first.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door, and the door was pushed open. Yoko Nantian turned around with a livid face, and when she saw Liang Zhongchun's aggrieved face, she became even more unhappy, "Get out!"

Liang Zhongchun didn't expect that Minglou was there, so he immediately felt embarrassed. He was about to leave, but then he thought, wouldn't the indicators be even more hopeless if he left?I had no choice but to bite the bullet and stand at the door, "Mr. Nantian, I...I have something to do..."

Seeing that he didn't leave, Nantian Yoko's expression became more and more ugly, and he was about to explode, but Minglou said softly, "Director Liang, who do you think is the biggest official here?"

Liang Zhongchun's face suddenly changed, "Of course it's Section Chief Nantian..."

Minglou smiled, "Then she told you to go out, why didn't you listen?"

The other party was clearly smiling, but Liang Zhongchun only felt panic behind his back, hurriedly explained, "Mr. Ming, listen to me, I've already settled on this Suzhou matter..."

"Snapped!"

Nan Tian slapped the table, "Get out immediately!"

"Clap."

The door slammed shut.

The interior returned to tranquility.

Minglou seemed to have never witnessed the farce just now, picked up the teacup again, and took a sip slowly.

"Mr. Ming, my tea is not bad, right?"

Nan Tian suddenly looked at him with strange eyes and a smile on his mouth.

Minglou smiled, "Tea is good tea, but..."

Nan Tian raised his eyebrows, "Just?"

Minglou still smiled, "It's just that we won't be able to drink it soon, what a pity."

Nan Tian frowned, "What do you mean, Sir Ming?"

Minglou said, "Section Leader Nantian probably wanted to assign me the quota in Suzhou, right? I'm obliged. I'm afraid I won't be able to drink this kind of good tea after I leave Shanghai. It's just a pity."

There was a trace of suspicion in Nantian's eyes, "How did I hear that this quota has been allocated to Chief Wang? Could it be that you ordered it from Chief Ming?"

Minglou smiled, "How come? Where did Section Chief Nantian hear it?"

Nantian was startled, and suddenly realized that he had slipped his tongue.

She subconsciously looked at Minglou, but the other person still had a gentle and harmless appearance, which made it difficult for people to be wary.

Maybe I'm overthinking it?

After all, Minglou is Wang Fuqu's closed disciple and Wang Manchun's senior brother. If he wanted to give Wang Manchun a chance to be promoted, he wouldn't transfer her to Suzhou.

After all, the idea of ​​asking Wang Manchun to take the blame was only her plan for the time being.

Impossible to be detected by anyone in advance.

Impossible.

Thinking of this, Nantian Yoko relaxed a little, and she sat back on the chair again.

"Then Chief Ming wants to go to Suzhou in person?"

"Suzhou is a gentle water town, and I have always been fascinated."

Nantian shook his head, "It's a pity, Chief Ming, Shanghai needs you, and you know that everything in the headquarters is inseparable from you. Although the higher authorities have given Chief Ming the right to deal with the indicators freely, I still want to sincerely retain you on behalf of the headquarters. , please stay in Shanghai."

A trace of surprise flashed across Minglou's face.

He frowned, "Mr. Nantian, there is no room for redress in this matter?"

Nantian Yoko shook his head resolutely.

Minglou sighed regretfully, "Then, does Section Chief Nantian have a suitable candidate in mind?"

Just wait for his words.

Nan Tian curled his lips, "Of course, this person is your assistant, Chief Ming, Cheng."

Sure enough, Minglou frowned, "I'm afraid..."

Nan Tian hurriedly said, "I know that in this way, Chief Ming will be short of people, but please think about it, if Ah Cheng can get better development, it will be beneficial to Chief Ming."

This is implying that all the forces Ah Cheng developed in Suzhou can be used by Minglou as much as he wants?

But Nantian is guaranteeing that she will turn a blind eye and let him strengthen his strength?

All of this was just bait thrown at Minglou, who had the right to handle the indicators, because she was anxious to keep Wang Manchun.

Minglou knew it well.

He also understood that as long as he agreed to Nantian's conditions, Ah Cheng's going to Suzhou would indeed be a good move.

But, he secretly sighed in his heart.

Yu Manli's face with deep meaning in her smile came to mind again, and she couldn't ignore it.

What would happen to Yu Manli if he didn't save Wang Manchun?Maybe nothing will happen, it will just remain the same, but he always feels that everything will be different because of this.

It's really evil, why does he always want to prove something in front of her.

When I got home at night, I rarely heard voices in the living room.

Minglou quietly stepped down, hid behind the hall, and listened carefully, but it was Yu Manli who was talking to Aunt Gui.

The strong aroma of coffee came from the kitchen, it was time to unplug the electric kettle, Minglou frowned, what were these two talking about, why were they so engrossed.

But when he heard the next sentence, he couldn't help holding his breath.

"Miss Yu, I can't take charge of this matter. You should discuss it with the eldest lady. I can't bear the responsibility!"

"It's okay...Aunt Gui, just help me contact the doctor, and I'll take care of the rest myself."

The voice was low, but it was getting softer.

In the end, I seemed to hear a very small "Got it."

it's time.

Ming Lou slowly came out from behind the pillars in the foyer, the light from the chandelier hit his face, deepening the shadow under his feet.

Ming Lou quietly looked at the two people who were talking. Aunt Gui stood up in a panic, almost knocking over the crystal glass dish on the table, but Yu Manli got up calmly and smiled at him, "You are back."

Then he came over to take off his coat, "The coffee is ready, do you want to take a shower first? Your hands are so cold."

Minglou smiled slightly, "Then you will keep me warm?"

Yu Manli paused, but raised her head halfway, narrowing her eyes, "How does Young Master Ming want to warm you up?"

Minglou has already hugged her, "Of course it's warmer like this."

Aunt Gui exclaimed from behind, "Eldest Young Master, Miss Yu is a healthy person, you should be more careful!"

Ming Lou said lightly, "Please take care of me, my daughter-in-law, I have a sense of propriety."

Yu Manli poked him on the shoulder, "Hey, who is your daughter-in-law, she hasn't been married yet."

Minglou pursed his lips, but stopped talking, and went upstairs with Yu Manli in his arms. Aunt Gui looked at the backs of the two of them, and did not look away for a long time.

When he arrived in the room, Minglou did not let go of Yu Manli, but sat on the bed with Yu Manli in his arms.

Yu Manli raised her face and smiled faintly, "What's wrong?"

Minglou also smiled plainly, "What did you tell Aunt Gui?"

Yu Manli spread her hands indifferently, "Abortion, I ask her to help find a reliable doctor."

……

Silence, clenched fists.

But just smiled, "Then what? She agreed?"

Yu Manli shook her head regretfully, "You came back too early, and you haven't had time to ask her to agree."

Minglou hugged her waist with a smile, "So, I should come back later, wait for her to find the doctor, and then wait for the doctor to finish the operation on you?"

The more Yu Manli listened, the more awkward she became. Why was her tone so serious?

She tapped his shoulder and whispered, "Hey, this is a trap... Didn't you also notice it?"

Minglou narrowed his eyes, "The more this is the case, the less you should contact her in private, it's too dangerous."

Yu Manli was puzzled, "But...if I didn't pretend to give her false news...how could Nantian mess up?"

Yes, if it weren't for Yu Manli's superb acting skills, even the small roles such as Aunt Gui would not be easily ignored, it would have been impossible for Wang Manchun to believe that Yu Manli was really pregnant with a child, and now it would be impossible for Nan Tian to think that Minglou was going to marry her. Give Wang Manchun the indicators, so he won't come up with the idea of ​​sending Ah Cheng to Suzhou.

All this is the news that Aunt Gui dug out from the Ming family and revealed to the puppet government.

However, what Aunt Gui knew was what Yu Manli wanted her to know.

Now Yu Manli set up another round, just to take advantage of the abortion incident and get rid of Aunt Gui in one fell swoop.

However, even though it's not true that she took the child in her womb so lightly, it was still his and her child in name.

She is generous enough, but he wants to care about every detail.

Minglou couldn't pretend anymore, "It's okay to contact, but you are not allowed to make fun of this kind of thing."

Didn't Yu Manli know what he meant? A trace of warmth flashed in her eyes, and she smiled, "So, what did Nan Tian say today?"

Taking advantage of this question, she stood up and drew the curtains a little.

Minglou didn't mind her leaving without hesitation, the days ahead would be long, not to mention that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

He stared at her, "Nantian wants me to go to Suzhou. Obviously, she knows that I want to give Wang Manchun the pointer."

As for how to know - Yu Manli intentionally revealed the news to Aunt Gui while chatting. Although Nantian was still kept in the dark, Aunt Gui's line had already been exposed.

"Will you go?" Yu Manli turned her back to look at him, unconsciously grasping the curtain behind her with both hands.

Minglou smiled slightly, stood up, and walked over slowly, "You don't want me to go?"

Yu Manli smiled, still calm, "You go, I naturally have to follow, I have nothing to think about, it's just acting in a different place."

Minglou frowned, "You just forget those two words sometime."

Yu Manli stuck out her tongue, "I can't help it, this word is too expressive, I can't help it..."

Before he finished speaking, he blocked her lips and tongue, his hand wrapped around her slender waist, and her nose was filled with the fragrance of his body mixed with lemon and tobacco, as well as the broadness and infiniteness of his chest. the scorching heat.

Yu Manli pressed against his chest, her hands were weakly resisting his further demands, she turned her face sideways, and his lips fell on her ear——the hot and humid breath slid down the cochlea to her brain, she just felt Her mind was also in chaos, but she was kissed by him again in a daze, "Manli..."

He called her in a low voice, and Yu Manli responded slightly, "Hmm..."

He smiled, "Mary... sooner or later we will have a child of our own."

He paused every word, and she suddenly came back to her senses, gritted her teeth and pushed him, "Get up."

Minglou smiled, "Is it okay? Here...it seems that I'm needed..."

At some point, his hand reached deep into the slit of the cheongsam, and she was startled, but her face was already smudged with haze, "You...you are shameless, you rascal..."

His voice was buried next to her ears, so soft that it trembled, she grabbed his back tightly, and was hugged by him, and only then did he organize the sentence he whispered just now in her mind, "I know now, it's too late. "
