Stealing the moonlight into my arms
Chapter 59: Drink Less, Gastric Lavage is Troublesome
Xiyuan.
Mrs. Lin and Weng Yuqing were having afternoon tea in the side hall.
In the end, it was still about the same thing. I spent the whole afternoon here until it was almost dark.
Mrs. Lin couldn't help but say, "Mrs. Xiao, what about the investment for next quarter? How can Xiao's company withdraw its investment just like that?"
Mrs. Lin's husband is the deputy director. Every quarter when it comes to attracting investment, he relies on these financiers. As a result, he offended the Xiao family, and the investment attraction for the next quarter was greatly lost. Her husband was originally in a critical period of competition for promotion. If this matter is not handled properly, promotion will be a distant prospect.
When her husband came back, he was furious. He said it was all her good deeds and asked her to quickly use her connections in the Xiao family to see if there was any room for improvement.
Hearing this, Weng Yuqing looked completely mad. She put down her teacup and said embarrassmently, "You're still looking for me? You've already killed me. Who told you to release that photo? And you didn't even bother to deal with it?"
Mrs. Lin saw that she was indifferent and asked, "Isn't that to increase the discussion of the topic? Other programs do the same. I am also doing this to help you..."
"Besides, who would have known that the eldest son of the Xiao family was adopted by that kind of family before? This is completely unrelated, how could we know?"
Weng Yuqing stopped her in time, "Hey, don't say you're helping me, I didn't say that."
Weng Yuqing did this simply to make Fu Runing look bad. She happened to see her two poor relatives coming over that day, so she asked her cousin Chen Ming to do something about it.
The two old men appeared on the show and the show was successful, but who knew that Xiao Jingting was in the photos released.
Who would have known that it was a photo of Xiao Jingting when he was young?
Somehow, the news reached Xiao Jingting's ears, and the matter was urgently suppressed. Later, Xiao Hongshen also found out, and the cooperation was over.
Fortunately, Xiao Hongshen didn’t know that she was the one behind the scenes, otherwise who knows what would happen?
It's also strange. Xiao Hongshen can't tell whether he likes or dislikes this son who has been living outside for fifteen years, but after all, this is the eldest son of the Xiao family, and it's a matter of face.
When he thought of this, a hint of jealousy flashed across Weng Yuqing's eyes.
Mrs. Lin saw that Weng Yuqing was clearly trying to save his father by sacrificing the car. She was resentful but did not dare to vent her anger. "Mrs. Xiao, we have been friends for so many years. You must help my old Lin find a solution. I don't have anyone else to turn to..."
Weng Yuqing was also afraid that Mrs. Lin would get angry and expose her affairs, so he checked the time and said soothingly, "It's almost time for dinner. Stay home for dinner. Hong Shen won't be home today, and my daughter is out playing with her friends. Let's just have a simple meal together."
Mrs. Lin agreed.
It was just an ordinary dinner. Not long after, a group of people came from outside the side hall.
At the same time, a sweet female voice was heard: "Grandma, Auntie has guests at home today?"
When Weng Yuqing heard this voice, he couldn't help but frown, as if a ghost was lingering.
When Xiao Jingting parked the car at the gate of East Garden, Fu Runing knew how the scene was going to go.
At this time, she helped the old lady into the side hall, with the tall and outstanding Xiao Jingting standing behind her.
Mrs. Lin couldn't help but look over when she saw this.
The group of people came over with an imposing presence.
The old woman was dressed elegantly and looked shrewd and intelligent. The young woman standing next to her was rich and bright-looking, but not vulgar. The man walking behind them was noble and cold. He didn't say a word, and there was a sense of distance around him that made him unapproachable.
When Weng Yuqing saw the old lady coming, he could only rush forward to greet her with a smile, "Mom, why are you here? Do you want to have dinner together?"
In the past, Song Huizhen was too lazy to come to their building to join in the fun. She lived in Dongyuan with the old man. When Xiao Hongshen was not back, she was even too lazy to step into here.
At this moment, she sat down with Fu Runing, "Jing Ting and his wife are back today, let's have a simple meal together."
"Okay, I'll have someone prepare it right away..."
Weng Yuqing agreed readily.
Mrs. Lin was sitting nearby. Seeing this, she tactfully prepared to leave.
Fu Runing glanced at her and suddenly turned on the TV in the side hall. "Grandma, let me see what's on today's 'Shengzhou Night Talk'?"
When Mrs. Lin heard these four words, her heart skipped a beat.
She took another closer look at the young woman's face. The more she looked, the more familiar it seemed. Alarm bells suddenly rang in her heart...
As expected, Fu Runing looked at the TV program and said in a vague way, "Oh, did the sun rise from the west today? Why is the program "Shengzhou Night Talk" off the air? It's been running smoothly for several years, why is it stopped?"
Song Huizhen smiled and said, "These TV programs are becoming more and more fabricated and out of control, and they're getting worse every year. People used to watch them for truth and fun, but now there's neither truth nor fun."
Fu Runing continued, "So, it seems this show has been reported. Look, it's been pulled from the air today and replaced with something else."
The conversation between the grandfather and grandson was very ordinary, but Mrs. Lin was feeling uneasy.
She could tell who the words were referring to.
Mrs. Lin hurriedly said goodbye to Weng Yuqing and left the Xiao family in a hurry.
As she walked, she was wondering what went wrong. It was not until she walked out of the Xiao family's gate and got in the car that she opened her mobile phone and suddenly realized that in the photo played by the old couple on the show the day before yesterday, the girl looked exactly like the woman who was next to the old lady just now?
She was originally wondering which god she had offended, but now she finally figured it all out.
This was the internal strife in their family, and she was used as a gun.
The young man and woman in the photo are the eldest son and his wife of the Xiao family.
All I knew before was that the Xiao family adopted a child a few years ago, but I had no idea what the specific circumstances were.
This damn program exposed the rotten sore of this wealthy family, which immediately angered the Xiao family.
Mrs. Lin sat in the car, regretting her decision to the core.
The most urgent thing is to think about how to remedy the situation.
Mrs. Lin immediately made a phone call and said, "Go find the contact information of the old couple surnamed Jian and interview them individually!"
The person on the other end of the phone replied, "I've contacted them, but I can't find them. The phone call is also unavailable. It's really strange..."
Mrs. Lin was furious and said, "Find it for me, find it quickly! How can a living person disappear?"
……
On the other side, the Xiao family's side hall.
The dinner table.
Song Huizhen spoke slowly, "I've said that playing dirty tricks is taboo in our family. If someone wants to play dirty tricks, they'd better do it cleanly. If anyone associates with such a shady person next time, we'll just kick the shit out of the family."
Weng Yuqing didn't dare to breathe in front of the old lady, knowing that it was directed at her.
"Mom, why are you blaming me for Jingting's situation? Mrs. Lin and I only met while playing mahjong. We don't have much of a relationship. They were so blind in their show that it backfired and ruined our Xiao family's reputation. And they still have the nerve to come to me for help. Didn't I say anything?"
The old lady didn't say anything, but she knew everything.
Fu Runing picked up a bowl of soup, tested the temperature, and then brought it to the old lady. "Grandma, this soup is not bad. Would you like to try it?"
"Forget it. I can't even eat in peace here. I'm afraid someone will hold a grudge against me and drug me to kill me early. I'm an old man who still wants to live a few more years. Let's go back to the East Garden to eat."
Song Huizhen spoke without mercy.
Fu Runing's hand also slipped, and the spoon that was about to drink the soup fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
She turned to look at Xiao Jingting beside her and said in a fuss, "Grandma is fine. Look, Jingting has drunk so much, and he is fine. How could someone drug you?"
The old lady gave him a sidelong glance and said, "Drink less. It'll be troublesome if you wash your stomach."
Weng Yuqing's face turned pale.
