Insincere
Chapter 5 005
Liang Rui didn't sleep all night, frowning in the morning, endured the discomfort, changed his clothes and went to Liu Sirong's house.
Liu Sirong was very surprised to see him, "You're here, are you okay?"
Liang Rui's eyes softened, and he said, "I'm fine, and I'm worrying you again. I promised to treat you to dinner yesterday."
"Meals can be eaten anytime, as long as you have nothing to do, it's all my fault for asking you to deliver the cake." Liu Sirong said guiltily: "Otherwise, nothing will happen."
No, it's not your problem, it's my problem.You were targeted because of me.
But Liang Rui couldn't tell the truth.
"I don't blame you. It's me who should say I'm sorry. I broke my promise." Liang Rui blinked and smiled: "And girls sometimes don't be too reasonable. They don't have a temper at all. Men don't know how to cherish it." .”
Liu Sirong blushed, turned her face away, "Well...Xiao Yuan is still sleeping, I'll go and wake him up."
Liang Rui raised his hand to stop her, and said seriously: "Actually, I came to see you today because I have something to ask you."
"What's the matter?" Liu Sirong said.
"Recently, the company has an important bidding project, and there is a lot of work to do. So I may not have time to take care of Xiaoyuan these days. If I ask for a nanny temporarily, it will be too late, and I will not be at ease, so I want Xiaoyuan to stay with you for a few days. God, I'll pick him up when I'm done with the matter." Liang Rui said.
Without even thinking about it, Liu Sirong said: "What did I think? It's not that Xiao Yuan has never lived with me. Don't worry, I will take good care of him!"
Liang Rui looked at her deeply: "Then I will trouble you."
Liang Rui had no choice but to make this decision. Although Jiang Ming finally let him go that day, the matter was obviously endless.He might have to deal with troubles from Jiang Ming at any time, and he couldn't take care of his children, and he couldn't let his children know about these things.
As for Liu Sirong... Before this matter is completely resolved, he must keep a distance from her and not let her be involved.So... leaving the two of them temporarily is the best decision.
What Jiang Ming would do today was completely unpredictable.
He can't take risks.
..............................
Liang Rui's saying that he has work to do is not entirely an excuse.
Recently, the Pingcheng Municipal Government has introduced a foreign investment to build a large commercial center in the city center.Such a large-scale commercial center plays a very important role in improving Pingcheng's urban image, so the government attaches great importance to this project. It can be said that it is giving the green light to people and land.
With such a large project, everyone can see the business opportunities and benefits, but without enough strength, not everyone can intervene.
When the bidding results came out, Liang Rui learned the news immediately that the general contractor was won by Wanjin Group, the largest local real estate developer in Pingcheng.Du Rong, the boss of Wanjin Group, is one of the most famous entrepreneurs in Pingcheng. He is commended by the government every year.
Now that the largest contractor has come out, small and medium companies like them can also be dispatched. Although they can't get the biggest piece of meat, if they can get a share of it, it is also very impressive.
As long as one of the sub-item supply contracts can be obtained, Liang Rui's company will be busy for half a year.
In the past few years, the competition has become more and more fierce. Liang Rui's company's business situation is not very good, so this project is even more important.Therefore, whether it was for the company or for himself, Liang Rui could not let go of such an opportunity.
So these days he simply lived in the company, busy collecting information on other competitors, as well as information on the Wanjin Group, trying to win the next bidding.
Besides work, he also makes a phone call to Liu Sirong and Liang Yuan every day.
As for Jiang Ming... He hasn't come to see him these days.
But Liang Rui didn't feel relaxed.
This feeling is like a prisoner waiting for execution, knowing that he will come in the end, but he can only wait helplessly, even... the waiting process is more difficult than the final relief.
That day, Liang Rui was preparing for the evening meal, when he suddenly received a text message from an unfamiliar number, "At six o'clock tonight, we are waiting for you at 306 Qingyuan Xiaozhu, Hejiang Road."
Liang Rui stared at the screen for a while, then sighed softly.
When it finally came, it seemed to be more relaxed.
Although there was no signature, Liang Rui knew that this was Jiang Ming's text message, but...
Liang Rui rubbed his brows in distress. Although he really wanted to solve the problem early, he knew he couldn't avoid it.But today is really not the right time.
Liang Rui prepared for many days, and finally found out the news, only to find out that Du Rong, the boss of Wanjin Group, had a dinner at the Royal View Hotel tonight.Their Dongyi company is too small to be qualified to entertain Du Rong, but it is necessary to find an opportunity to get close to it. The deadline for bidding is approaching, so they must hurry up and act.
Liang Rui's thumb stayed on the screen for a moment, and finally edited a text message and sent it out: "I have something to do tonight, let's wait another day."
When he sent this text message, he was very disturbed.
The current Jiang Ming was like a bomb that could go off at any time, and he didn't know if he would be angered, misunderstood that he was making excuses - this was very possible.
But tonight is really not the right time.
But Liang Rui didn't have time to think about it, he just put down his phone.Han Ping pushed the door open and came in, and said with a smile, "Shall we go?"
"Okay." Liang Rui picked up his coat and stood up, smiling, "Will you drive today?"
Han Ping is the boss of Liang Rui's company, and the two have known each other for more than seven years. At that time, Liang Rui had just moved to Pingcheng.
In order to avoid the Jiang family, and also to make himself a 'dead man' in the true sense, Liang Rui abandoned his identity, status and everything he had so hard to get in the first place, gave up all the assets under his name, and only brought a few Some cash left alone.
With no identity and no academic qualifications, he fell from the arrogance of the heavens to the bottom in an instant, and it was difficult to survive in this hierarchical society.
He couldn't find a job with status, so he could only work as a temporary worker at first, taking his children to make ends meet.Although capable, it has not proved that everything is in vain. No one will easily trust a person of unknown origin.And coming to this remote small city from a bustling metropolis, many of the things he used to be good at are useless.
If he hadn't met Han Ping, although he would not be unable to survive now, it would be impossible for him to live in such a stable and decent way.
It was Han Ping who gave him the opportunity to show himself, supported him when he was poor, trusted him to reuse him, and even let him serve as the vice president of the company a few years ago, so that he finally stood out in this city. Keep your feet on the ground.
Liang Rui is not a person who doesn't know good and bad, so he stayed here with peace of mind and worked hard for the company.
Although the income is mediocre, it is enough for him to live a surplus life in Pingcheng, and he can also save some money.He doesn't have any ambitions either, he thinks this is enough, in this life, he will never go to the city with that person again, nor will he enter that high-ranking circle again, he just wants to bring up the child properly.
Work hard and live seriously, isn't this actually the goal of many people's lifelong struggle?
Originally, everything developed as he wished, but who would have thought that in a small town thousands of miles away, people from two different worlds would meet again?
Han Ping dressed meticulously today. He chatted with Liang Rui while driving: "I don't know if Mr. Du is good at dealing with him."
Liang Ruixiao: "It doesn't matter whether we get along well or not, the key is whether there are common interests."
Han Ping nodded when he heard the words, and sighed: "I've been a little worried about my gains and losses recently. I haven't seen you before."
Liang Rui's eyes moved, and he asked with a smile, "What's the matter? Is your love life not going well?"
Han Ping's eyes were melancholy: "It's broken up again."
Liang Rui had such an expression on his face.
Speaking of which, Han Ping is also gay, and since he found out that Liang Rui is also gay, the two have become good friends.Although they don't call each other, it's good to be friends, and I feel a little sympathetic to each other.
Han Ping has a good eye for making friends, and he is sincere and worthy of deep friendship, but he is a bit unreliable in terms of relationships.He is actually not the kind of playful person, he has always wanted to find someone to settle down, but none of his boyfriends seemed to Liang Rui to be someone who could settle down.Facts also proved that Liang Rui's vision was right, and they all ended up breaking up, and broke up unhappy every time.At the beginning, when Han Ping approached Liang Rui to complain, Liang Rui also seriously helped to analyze and comfort him with sympathy, but later on...it became numb after too many times.
There was nothing he could do about it.
Liang Rui patted Han Ping's shoulder and said with emotion: "It's okay, if the old one doesn't go, the new one won't come."
Han Ping: "..." Actually, you can comfort me...
"Here we are, let's go in." Liang Rui straightened his collar, pushed the door open and walked down first.
As soon as he entered the hotel, the phone rang suddenly. Liang Rui's face changed slightly when he saw the unfamiliar number, and then he pressed it off as if nothing had happened, and then turned the phone to silent.
Han Ping was a step behind, just in time to see Liang Rui hang up the phone, and asked in confusion, "Who is looking for you?"
"Selling insurance." Liang Rui smiled helplessly.
Han Ping stopped asking, showing an expression that I understand your pain very well.
Liang Rui and the others booked a room next to Du Rong's private room. They arrived a long time in advance, and sat inside chatting without closing the door.
After a while, loud and hearty laughter came from outside, and Du Rong was passing by in the corridor surrounded by several people.
Liang Rui and Han Ping looked at each other, and after about half an hour, they knocked on the door of the private room next door with their wine glasses in hand.
The man who opened the door didn't know Liang Rui and Han Ping, but seeing the way they held the wine, he thought they might be Mr. Du's acquaintances, so he just met them and came over to toast, so he let them in.
Du Rong was sitting at the top of the wine table. He was over fifty years old, and his body was slightly fat, but his aura of being in the top position for a long time and his background of being a gangster gave him a feeling of calmness, even if he didn't speak. People dare not underestimate it.
A decent smile was already on Han Ping's face, and he approached with a glass of wine in a neither humble nor overbearing manner: "Hello Mr. Du, I'm Han Ping from Dongyi. I didn't expect that you happened to be eating here today, and I have always admired you." President Du's demeanor, so I took the liberty to come here and disturb you."
Du Rong raised his eyes and glanced at Han Ping, showing a distant smile: "Mr. Han is polite."
There are too many people in Pingcheng who 'admired' him, but he doesn't know Han Ping of Dongyi, so it can be seen that he is not a great person.
Although Du Rong spoke politely, his expression was indifferent, and he sat there motionless. The people next to him didn't know his attitude, so they looked at Han Ping and Liang Rui suddenly not very friendly.
Liang Rui looked around, walked to Du Rong's side without changing his expression, drank the wine in the glass, and said, "It's our fault for the sudden accident. I'll punish myself first." The card was placed in Du Rong's hand, as if it was just passing a cigarette as if nothing had happened. "Small intentions are not respect."
Du Rong's eyelids trembled, but the others kept their eyes fixed, as if they didn't see anything.
Liang Rui didn't intend to do this at first, but these days they have been seeking to see each other and have nowhere to go, so they have no choice but to make this move, which is also to test Du Rong's attitude.Although they didn't reveal their purpose, it's impossible for an old fox like Du Rong not to know what it was for.
But Du Rong's reaction made Liang Ruixin feel cold.
"We don't know each other. I don't dare to accept this kind of intention." Du Rong chuckled, and his gaze swept across Liang Rui with a half-smile, and finally fell on Han Ping: "Mr. Come and general my army like this, which makes me embarrassed."
Han Ping's expression changed upon hearing this.
Both he and Liang Rui had the same thought, this matter is not good.
People like Du Rong put down such a big hat as soon as they opened their mouths. It can be seen that they don't intend to leave them a chance. Most of them already have a suitable choice in their hearts, so they are so merciless.Otherwise, it would not be a big deal to charge them a little money, and you can't have personal relationships when doing business?
Do you have to give up like this, doomed to fail before you even start?
A trace of unwillingness flashed in Liang Rui's eyes, but there was nothing he could do. This society is sometimes so realistic that it may not necessarily give you a fair chance to compete.He was silent for a moment, and decided to continue saving.There was no trace of anger on his face, and he continued to smile: "Mr. Du's words are serious..."
However, before he could speak, the door of the box was suddenly pushed open.
This sound attracted everyone's attention, and everyone showed surprise and annoyed expressions. Which ignorant person entered the door without knocking?Don't you know who's inside?It's so rampant!
Liang Rui also looked over, his expression sank immediately, and his fingertips pinching the wine glass so hard that they turned white.

Liu Sirong was very surprised to see him, "You're here, are you okay?"
Liang Rui's eyes softened, and he said, "I'm fine, and I'm worrying you again. I promised to treat you to dinner yesterday."
"Meals can be eaten anytime, as long as you have nothing to do, it's all my fault for asking you to deliver the cake." Liu Sirong said guiltily: "Otherwise, nothing will happen."
