You chased me back

Chapter 22 Chapter 22

Although Ning Xiancheng's injury has not healed quickly, the project cannot be delayed.The basic process of the medium-sized shopping mall that he and Zhang Jian worked on has been determined, and the products of Ning Xiancheng's company in the United States are the main products, which is also in line with the current people's love for foreign goods.

The biggest remaining problem is that there is still a gap in funding.Zhang Jian also understands that the Ning family's business is struggling. This cooperation is entirely due to the friendship between Ning Xiancheng's parents and Zhang Jian's boss.

In the past, when encountering such a case, the cooperating parties can do what they should do to be regarded as having professional ethics. It is not them who are anxious about funding issues, who they love, and whether the project cannot be opened.To put it bluntly, this cooperation is selling personal favors. The upper management on Zhang Jian's side is only responsible for showing off. After all, they are old friends.But there are no permanent friends in the mall, and that friendship is only worth two dollars, and the higher-ups won't pay any more.If you invest less, you naturally don't care whether you pay or not.

But this time is a bit different. Zhang Jian is the one who handles this project, so of course he will do his best.

Ning Xiancheng has basically recovered, but he still needs to stay in the hospital for observation, so the special ward of the hospital became their office.

"Mr. Zhao? Long time no see. I'm Zhang Jian from Shenghua. Yes, I have a good project with you this time..."

"Okay, if you think about it, then I won't bother you." Zhang Jian hung up the phone, rubbed her sour cheeks from a smile, and continued to clatter and type while holding the notebook.

Ning Xiancheng likes Zhang Jian's mature and reliable appearance, and is also very moved that he stays up late and works overtime for his own affairs to block investment everywhere.Looking at Zhang Jian's dark circles under his eyes and stubbled chin, Ning Xiancheng couldn't help but leaned over and kissed Zhang Jian's side face.

Looking at Zhang Jian's eyes that widened for a moment, he couldn't help laughing: "Why are you so surprised?"

Zhang Jian didn't speak, she lowered her eyes, and turned the laptop to show Ning Xiancheng:

"The fund is only about 300 million yuan short, so there is basically nothing to worry about. It's just that there are several large-scale high-end shopping malls next to the shopping center, and it will be very unfavorable for us in terms of investment and customer sources."

Ning Xiancheng's expression also became heavy. That's right, even if all difficulties are overcome and the project is completed now, it will still be a problem for business in the future. When the building is completed, it will not be able to recruit businesses and stop customers. In the end, it will not make money but will lose money. Go in for more.

Ning Xiancheng calmed down and thought about it:

"Unless we can join hands with them."

Zhang Jian shook his head and sighed: "It's hard to say, these shopping malls are not small, why are they willing to take a share of our pie? But the major shareholder behind those shopping malls knows Mr. Wang, so I'll ask Mr. Wang to arrange a dinner. Try it."

Wang Dong is Zhang Jian's big boss, his name is Wang Yanming, and he can be considered a respectable figure in the capital.A typical smiling tiger, he doesn't offend anyone, but if he violates his taboo, he will use any means behind his back that can't be put on the table.Fortunately, this person is not unreasonable, and he is easy to talk to at ordinary times, so he quickly helped Zhang Jian get in touch with him.

Zhang Jian set the restaurant in the most luxurious place in the capital. The entire hotel is resplendent from the lobby to the restrooms. It burns people's eyes and hurts their eyes. It's casual enough to eat hundreds of thousands for a meal. It's vulgar and grand.

Zhang Jian wore a simple and elegant suit, and Ning Xiancheng naturally dressed it up well. The appearance of a social elite made all the pretty counter girls look ashamed.

When the time came, it was time to start, but there was still one seat empty.Wang Yanming had confessed to Zhang Jian that there were 15 people in total, and all of them were masters who could not afford to offend.Now there are 14 of them. According to the list given by Mr. Wang, um, they are the young son of Qinhou's family—Qin Yang.

Zhang Jian knew about him, so he made a friend of Huailin's.Among these places in the capital, he is the most unrestrained.The style of acting is absolutely high-profile and public. It is said that there are no women who have been his girlfriends who are not popular now.But he didn't have much else to do except amuse the public with some love affairs and squander the family fortune.But there is no way, people reincarnate well, even if they don't get out of bed every day, they won't starve to death, and if they get into trouble, a group of people will rush to wipe their buttocks.

So even if Zhang Jian hated him from the bottom of his heart, he could only wait patiently, pouring wine while chatting with these influential figures in the business world in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.

Fortunately, this young master Qin is also reliable, and he didn't make everyone wait too long.The waiter came in and whispered to Zhang Jian: "Mr. Zhang,...don't come here." Zhang Jian didn't hear clearly, but she figured out who it was, so she hurriedly asked him to take a seat.

So when Xiang Huailin walked in, Zhang Jian was caught off guard and subconsciously stood up.But fortunately, everyone's attention was focused on Xiang Huailin, and no one except Ning Xiancheng noticed Zhang Jian's momentary gaffe and abnormality.

There are many people here who grew up watching Xiang Huailin, especially the most powerful Director Zhao and the Xiang family are family friends.

Xiang Huailin was also the first one to ask him when he came in: "Oh, I'm so sorry, I've been delayed by something. Uncle Zhao! Hehe, it's been a long time since I saw you, and you are getting tougher and tougher!"

Zhao Shicheng doted on Xiang Huailin like his own son, he didn't care if he was late, and scolded with a smile:

"Stinky boy, aren't you in the South China Sea? It's not the same to ask Qin Yang to come instead of you. Anyway, he is idle when he is idle!"

Xiang Huailin smiled:

"How can it be done? You are here, I don't come to ask you to be safe, I can't justify it."

"You are the only one with a sweet mouth." Zhao Shicheng said with a smile.

Then, Xiang Huailin generously apologized to the others and sat down.He didn't even look at Zhang Jian.

This dinner was relying on Wang Yanming's face, but to put it bluntly, it was about the affairs of Ningxian City, and Zhang Jian was only attending on Wang Yanming's behalf.

Everyone is willing to give Wang Dong face, but everyone also knows that this project is not much lucrative, so naturally they don't care so much.

Northerners always start their conversations with wine. Ning Xiancheng is not good at drinking, and he was a little dizzy after walking around. Many people showed contempt on their faces.Originally, a fledgling child who just came back from abroad, if you have no connections, no influence, no power, I don't see how capable you are.But because of a little friendship, no one took him seriously.

While dealing with these scheming old foxes quietly, Zhang Jian implicitly expressed his wish to join hands.In fact, Zhang Jian is not good at dealing with such situations, he is not as smooth-talking as Xiang Huailin.

Since the day Xiang Huailin met him, he has always been gentle and refined but not easy to get close to, except for occasionally showing a domineering and irritable side to Xiang Huailin.

Ning Xiancheng was already showing some drunkenness, Zhang Jian blocked a few glasses of wine for Ning Xiancheng without a trace, and his stomach was also on fire.He usually entertains, but he has a bad stomach, so he can push and hide, and he doesn't drink much.

Xiang Huailin pretended to be chatting with the people around him, but he kept observing Zhang Jian from the corner of his eye.Seeing Zhang Jian blocking the wine for Ning Xiancheng, protecting Ning Xiancheng like a hen guarding its cubs, her expression gradually became gloomy.

When the new round started, before Zhang Jian could speak, Xiang Huailin got up gracefully one step ahead of him, smiling clearly but Zhang Jian felt a hint of danger from it.

"Today, in the name of Brother Wang, I will be cheeky to Huailin. Everyone knows that I have built a resort in the South China Sea. No, it will be completed soon, and the related companies have not yet settled down. The tourism industry No food, no shopping, how can it develop? Hey, I’m worrying my brother recently, Mr. Zhang, you want to join forces. My meat here is fat enough, but I don’t know if the taste is right. Compared with Mr. Zhao, there must be something Risk, why don't you just give me a special franchise, so that everyone can develop well. What do you two think?"

"No matter what you decide, I'll share this wine with everyone first. It's fate to meet each other, and there will be more opportunities to cooperate in the future." Xiang Huailin looked up and took a sip of wine.

Let's look at everyone sitting here, okay, Zhang Jian was not the only one who was shocked by this remark.

Xiang Huailin made it clear that he was helping Zhang Jian, and joining forces with the resort would be beneficial to the mall but not harmful!Who here doesn't want to hang their home sign in Xiang Huailin's resort?Any one of these shopping malls is higher-grade than Zhang Jian's shopping malls, and Xiang Huailin actually throws his fat to such a little-known small company like this? !

We all know that Xiang Erjuan has a bad eye at a young age. Could it be that this small company has an advantage that they haven't discovered? ...Well, I really can't tell if I think about it this way, there is Wang Yanming behind it!

This time, they are the ones who are desperate to cooperate with Zhang Jian.

There were a lot of people pouring wine for Zhang Jian and Ningxian City. Xiang Huailin walked to Zhang Jian, hugged Zhang Jian's shoulders intimately and called him brother and brother, and took the wine glass from Zhang Jian's hand naturally, and put those All the wine poured to Zhang Jian was put into his own mouth.

It's not over yet, Xiang Huailin seemed to suddenly get excited, drank the white wine like plain water, and poured half of the people at the table while saying high-sounding polite words.Zhang Jian couldn't hold back.

Who can not drink the wine toasted to the second young master?At this moment, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xiang Er Shao is a child protector.

Everyone present here knows that the young master of the Xiang family is extremely tactful, like an individual.Few people have seen Xiang Huailin who is full of evil spirits.The peach blossom eyes that are always arrogant and smiling now seem to have hidden blades, dangerous, and add a bit of evil.

Just casually glancing at each other while raising your head to swallow your wine makes you feel terrified.That look, like a poisonous snake looking at an enemy who broke into its own territory, is cold, contemptuous, and vicious.

Finally, when the song was over, the bosses who were usually dignified and arrogant were helped by the assistant driver into the car, and few of them were sober.

Only Zhao Shicheng was spared from Xiang Huailin's murderous hands. When he passed by Zhang Jian, he took a deep look at him, his eyes full of warning.

Zhang Jian handed Ning Xiancheng, who was unconscious, to the assistant, and returned to the hotel by herself.

Finally, he finally found Xiang Huailin leaning against the wall and smoking in the bathroom.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Xiang Huailin raised his head, squinted his eyes hard, and it took him a long time to recognize the person. He sneered and spoke with his tongue:

"Why... hiccup... what, did you send the family back?"

Looking at Xiang Huailin like this, Zhang Jian felt his heart twitch like a pain, he sighed, stepped forward to support Xiang Huailin and said:

"Come on, I'll take you home."

Xiang Huailin opened his hand, and stood up unsteadily:

"Go home?... I have a fart home."

Xiang Huailin spit out a smoke ring, half-closed his eyes and continued:

"In the past, I always thought...Anyway, Ning Xiancheng is gone, and the only one who can be by your side...is me. At worst, I will be his substitute for the rest of his life. It doesn't matter, really...as long as you are with me Beside...I really don't care if you still have him in your heart...as long as the one next to you is me..." Xiang Huailin choked up, closed his eyes and took a deep breath of cigarette , as if trying to suppress emotions.

Zhang Jian raised his left hand and pressed it on his chest. It seemed that something had split there following Xiang Huailin's words. He was so painful that he couldn't stand up, so he could only push against the cold marble wall.

Throwing the cigarette butt to Huailin, eyes hazy, tongue out and mockingly said:

"I just never thought that Ning Xiancheng would come back..." At the end, he added, "I never thought that it's been so many years... When he comes back, you still go with him without looking back... ...."

Xiang Huailin wobbled towards the sink, Zhang Jian quickly reached out to support him, he waved Zhang Jian's arm and frowned, muttering, "No need."

Xiang Huailin really drank a lot today, and it was difficult for him to walk. He staggered to the sink and washed his face, trying to make his voice sound calmer: "Thinking about it later... I'm satisfied." Xiang Huailin hiccupped and said, "You've been good to me these years, no matter if it's true or not... Before Ning Xiancheng came back... hiccup... I I really thought I had a home...I'm not afraid of your jokes if I say it...I went to the supermarket two days ago...I got lost when I came back...haha..." Xiang Huailin laughed to himself twice.

"I just realized that you were really used to me..."

For a long time, the two of them were just silent like this, only the sound of Xiang Huailin's unsteady breathing due to drunkenness could be heard.

Zhang Jian's eyes were red, and she was about to say something when Xiang Huailin interrupted:

"So...I...don't hate you anymore, you go...don't feel that you owe me anything...I just have one request for you...hiccup... .In the future, don't f*ck dangle in front of my eyes...I feel upset..."
