Open up the sky

Chapter 13

Will you still love others?Pushing open the car door, Qi Shaoshang was startled by such a question, will it?He couldn't answer.

"The boss is back." Mu Jiuping greeted him.

After receiving Lei Juan's urgent recall call, he hurried back to Lianyun before he could calm down. Qi Shaoshang nodded, "Brother Juan, tell him I'm back."

Mu Jiuping said: "In the hall, Sister Honglei and Xiao Yao are also there. Hey, why didn't I see Brother Gu today?"

"You really want to see him?" Qi Shaoshang turned his head when he heard the sound.

Mu Jiuping was taken aback, presumably, no matter how much his heart was broken, no matter how much he smiled, it would be empty, Qi Shaoshang said: "He won't come."

When the peach blossoms are in full bloom, winter goes to spring and it is just a moment.

People's hearts change faster than this moment.

This spring is much colder than usual.

Fallingwater, the Great Hall.

There were only Lei Juan, Hao Lianchunshui, Xi Honglei, and Qi Shaoshang in the hall, and the rest all bowed their heads and withdrew.

Lei Juan looked at the three people who were silent. In fact, it was not completely lack of communication. For example, when Qi Shaoshang entered the door just now, he looked at him with cold eyes and hatred, and Hao Lian was even worse. Ru Ren, Qi Shaoshang was stabbed severely by his gaze, and lowered his head, as if he had really been killed by a little demon once.

Lei Juan was speechless, Honglei and Xiaoyao knelt and sat on the right, and Qi Shaoshang was alone on the right. What kind of four big families are these people, and what kind of Lianyun is organized? He glanced at them coldly, "What do you want I sit closer!"

Xi Honglei didn't move, Hao Lian didn't move, Qi Shaoshang bent over and froze.

"You don't understand what I'm saying, right?" Lei Juan was so angry that he hit Qi Shaoshang's vest with his kick. Qi Shaoshang didn't dare to hide when he saw it, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

"You have managed to repent of your marriage, and now you are asked to sit in the past, are you deaf?! You are so courageous, so promising, Lian Yun's big boss, you Qi Shaoshang, let me think clearly, whether you can afford it ?!"

The more Lei Juan talked, the more angry he became, and he kicked harder than the other. Brother Juan was really not joking when he was angry. Xi Honglei saw that Qi Shaoshang did not hide or admit his mistake, and his body trembled violently.She turned pale all of a sudden, pulled Hao Lian's sleeve, and winked, and the two rushed over immediately.

"Brother Juan, are you really going to beat him to death?!" Hao Lian blocked Qi Shaoshang, groaning in pain, this kick was really hard, Qi Shaoshang, good boy, thank you for being able to bear it just now.

Lei Juan clapped his hands when he saw the three people finally moving together, "I see you two just gritted your teeth and looked at Qi Shaoshang, presumably because you were worried about my presence and didn't dare to do anything, so I'm just helping you now, killing you That's good, so you don't get upset when you see it."

Xi Honglei saw Qi Shaoshang who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, couldn't bear it, raised his head and couldn't help calling: "Brother Juan."

Honglei, you still care about him.

Lei Juan saw it better than anyone else, and smiled with satisfaction in his heart, Shao Shang, don't blame me for being too aggressive, who told you that the three of you are stubborn, you have to see some blood to know what a family is, blood is thicker than water.

Lei Juan squatted down and looked at them, still not feeling enough and said: "You three, get closer to me!"

This time I learned to be good, although it was very awkward and embarrassing, but I still kept close to each other honestly, just like being punished when I was a child.Lei Juan's gesture of rolling up his sleeves scared the three of them into swallowing.

Lei Juan sighed, and said earnestly: "It has been thousands of years since Lian Yun came to our generation. Although they are brothers and sisters with different surnames, they have broken the bones and tendons. , You think they are just peeping at the sky, I think these things are not simple."

Xi Honglei quickly asked: "Brother Juan, did you hear something?"

Lei Juan shook his head. He didn't want them to worry too much before the investigation was clear, but he held her hand very gently, "Honglei, I know you are wronged by this matter. We are here today, what's the matter?" If you don’t like it, just say it, if you want to slap him on the left, I will never slap him on the right, if you want to cut off his left hand, I will never cut off his right.”

Xi Honglei let out a chuckle and said, "Brother Juan! Stop pretending to be a villain, you don't look like one at all." She looked at Qi Shaoshang with a strange gleam in her eyes, "I just want to ask him one more question. question."

Qi Shaoshang's expression was ugly, but he still turned his head and said with a smile, "Red Tears, what do you want to know."

She thought about it for a while, and it was a bit difficult, but if she didn't ask clearly, she would have a knot in her life, "If you were given a chance to start over now, would you marry me?"

Hao Lian couldn't stand Qi Shaoshang's silence, "Girls are already asking about this, Qi Shaoshang, can you stop letting people down on you."

Qi Shaoshang glanced at Hao Lian, and finally fixed on the red face, and confessed without reservation: "My heart is no longer with me."

"I understand." Hearing the unfeeling words too many times, in fact, he was really unfeeling, Xi Honglei looked at Qi Shaoshang who was extremely haggard, and couldn't help asking: "Does the person you love love him as much as you do?" Love you like that?!"

Qi Shaoshang's eyes dimmed and flickered, "He..."

This kind of lack of confidence revealed the answer in an instant. Sometimes a man's strength is just to hide his inner fragility.

Looking at the mournful Qi Shaoshang, Lei Juan also knelt down and hugged the three of them in his arms, and said in a calm voice like the head of a family: "Okay, okay, this matter will be settled in the future." I won’t mention it. Family is the most important thing, and loved ones are the most tolerant in this world.”

Kowloon Jinge Office Building

"Father, Gu Xichao really broke up with Qi Shaoshang." Jin Lin approached Fu Zongshu, Jin Ge's building had been sealed, but Fu Zongshu always liked to look back and wander here.

"Jinlin, I just want to take a look here." Fu Zongshu looked at a building with a very pious look, as if he was burning incense to worship the gods.

Huang Jinlin was suspicious, and that day he and Gu Xichao went to the ICAC to expose Qi Shaoshang's use of improper means to crush Jin Ge, and the evidence Gu Xichao presented really surprised him, Gu Xichao wanted to put Qi Shaoshang to death!

"Gu Xichao, you are so ruthless!" Can't help sighing, but that day's Gu Xichao had an indifferent expression, "Putting death to death is also treason, and putting life to death is also treason, it should be continuous, and you will be rebelled by it."

Huang Jinlin's heart felt cold, and Wan Qing was so kind, how could she like Gu Xichao's jackal heart?

After Fu Zongshu "had worshiped" the building turned his head, seeing Jinlin's troubled face, he must be thinking about Gu Xichao.

Gu Xichao... Fu Zongshu squinted his eyes, "What are you hesitating about? After all, the eighteen statues can't see the light. Without Jin Ge's protective umbrella, it is difficult to gain a foothold in Hong Kong. Gu Xichao said that Pitian was willing to replace Jin Ge as the umbrella. Better than nothing, you should be happy."

"Father" Jinlin looked embarrassed. After all, Jiang is still old and hot, and he said to the point, "I was just thinking, how effective Gu Xichao's words are in Pitian."

"Whether it works or not, that's Gu Xichao's business, you don't need to worry about him," Fu Zongshu said indifferently, Gu Xichao is ambitious but eager for quick success, such a person is unlikely to achieve great things, "We are lonely now, so it's okay for Pitian big tree."

"Just for expediency?" Jinlin asked tentatively.

Fu Zongshu shook his head, "More than that. We are alone, and Gu Xichao is fighting alone. If you don't believe that Gu Xichao will come back to me, why don't you think about it? He might not be willing to do so."

Jinlin gradually realized, "He betrayed Jin Ge."

Fu Zongshu nodded, "He also betrayed Qi Shaoshang. Gu Xichao is setting up the sky, so life may not be better than ours."

"Then why didn't he leave?"

"You should ask him why he betrayed Qi Shaoshang." Fu Zongshu said here with a very cold light in his eyes, "Gu Xichao's eyes are higher than the top, and he is absolutely unwilling to bow his head and submit to him. Thinking about flying. I asked you to bring him a message, and Gu Xichao would definitely fall on deaf ears to what other people said, but I am not someone else, I am Wan Qing's father."

Gu Xichao was indeed as Fu Zongshu said that the days of Pitian were not going well, but he didn't care.

"Gu Xichao, you want eighteen statues, so that's why." After the meeting, Jinlin caught Gu Xichao at the door of the meeting room.

Gu Xichao looked smug, holding the appointment contract of Pitian's new executive, "These old guys are stubborn, they can't understand the reasoning with them, so I have no choice but to come up with this bad plan, and ask your Eighteen Lords to point them out." It is best to give some color to clear the way."

The eighteen statues were led by Jinlin in the past to help Jin Ge solve some "unspeakable" troubles, doing all underground business, shady but very effective, but now they have become Gu Xichao's thugs.If Fu Zongshu hadn't asked him to cooperate with Gu Xichao, Jinlin would not have been able to swallow this breath.

"Gu Xichao, you are really capable. Fortunately, Qi Shaoshang treated you well in the past, and now you are merciless in driving him away." Huang Jinlin saw Gu Xichao's expression several times when he heard the name Qi Shaoshang, and secretly praised his father in his heart Sure enough, Gu Xichao saw the bones, so he continued, "It's really not easy for Wan Qing to stay in your heart."

"The so-called, show no mercy and don't show mercy. Jin Lin, don't I need to teach you this truth?"

Gu Xichao folded the contract jointly signed by the directors of Pitian and put it in his pocket, and said with a smile: "Qi Shaoshang also knows this truth well, otherwise you Jin Ge wouldn't fall so fast, and how could you Jinlin condescend Gui came to see me Gu Xichao."

"Gu Xichao, I won't play tricks on you. Pitian is half dead now, so I'll ask you if there is anything you can do."

"That depends on whether your eighteen venerables can control their families." Gu Xichao raised his eyebrows provocatively, "If you want to do something practical, do it, don't dangle in front of me."

Huang Jinlin touched his nose and left, Gu Xichao stood still, he turned and looked at the meeting room, where Qi Shaoshang used to sit in the center of the round table, but now it is him.

Gu Xichao stared at that position, and said slowly, "Pitian won't fall."

"The sky won't fall" Gu Xichao said so, and he did the same.He stayed in Pitian all day long, in Qi Shaoshang's former office, holding Qi Shaoshang's position as Pitian's executive, doing what Qi Shaoshang used to do.

Tired of reading documents, Gu Xichao would rest in Qi Shaoshang's luxurious camphor wood chair, recalling what he saw with his eyes.

The office on the top floor of Pitian Building was the place where he and Qi Shaoshang met for the first time.

"Mr. Gu seems to have something on his mind?"

Is that what he said?

Gu Xichao stood up and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling windows. He remembered that Qi Shaoshang was also standing here at that time. He didn't know what he saw from here at that time, but at this moment, the night lights in Central were brightly lit, but Gu Xichao looked at this place. There is an inexplicable indifference in all eyes, separated by this layer of glass, he is not on the side of the world.

"Gu Xichao, the project you're in charge of is Pitian's Eye Heart. If you have any difficulties, just come to me."

Gu Xichao closed his eyes, he still remembered the feeling of spreading his wings and soaring.

"It doesn't matter what I missed before, from now on, you come to help me",

however……

Back at the desk again, Gu Xichao looked at the only thing of his in the entire office, the young and beautiful girl in the photo, smiling shyly.

sunny evening.

"If you miss it, you miss it, Qi Shaoshang. It was already too late when we first met."

After Gu Xichao basically grasped the current situation of Pitian, he convened a high-level meeting, at which he revealed his plans.The departure of Yongnuo's designer will affect Pitian's jewelry market. Xi Honglei's withdrawal will take away a considerable number of old customers, and the market will indeed shrink a lot. But jade and diamonds are different after all, and Xi's revenge will not The jade market that will affect Pitian is still uncertain.

Tracing back to the origin, the hometown of jewelry is in Europe, and most of the diamonds are sold by rich Europeans; while the origin of jade is in Asia, and there are more Easterners than Westerners who know jade belts. After all, jade and jewelry are two markets. Talk about implicated.

Furthermore, 40% of Pitian's annual budget is used to develop the jade market, and the special expenses cost hundreds of millions. It is clear at a glance which is more important. The success of the jade market determines the overall performance of Pitian this year!

The principle of distinguishing between good and bad is clear. If this is reasonable, then there is still emotion behind it, love?Gu Xichao smiled disdainfully, feeling that the past is hard to get back, and the practical benefits of a year-end dividend are in front of him, and how many people can not be tempted.Gu Xichao didn't have extra patience when he really encountered someone who didn't know good from bad.

"No matter how much you think about it, it's Qi Shaoshang's jewelry market. Now it's me, Gu Xichao, who is developing the jade market."

At the end of the meeting, Gu Xichao returned to the office. It was a matter of necessity to use the eighteen golden scales to get the position of Pitian executive. The meeting just now was to let Pitian know that Gu Xichao was doing Pitian executive. Well deserved, villain first and gentleman second, kindness and power are impeccable...

Gu Xichao was lying on the desk tiredly, thinking about the name that was accidentally mentioned, Qi Shaoshang, Qi Shaoshang!

The setting sun took away the last ray of light without hesitation, and the whole world entered night, and no one would care. In that dim office, there was a figure on the table that almost melted into the darkness.

Seven days later, the sky will be opened and the banquet will be held.

The turbulent change of ownership shocked the entire business world. At the moment when the outcome was uncertain, a person who should not be silent disappeared and searched for traces.

Qi Shaoshang.

His disappearance is like admitting defeat. There is no suspense about winning or losing without an opponent, so everything is completely overturned.

The luxurious and exquisite banquet tonight is just to celebrate Pitian's new executive successor, Gu Xichao. At a time when everything seemed to have settled, Qi Shaoshang appeared again.

Just now he loudly congratulated Gu Xichao's high and low position employees, stared at Qi Shaoshang in a daze, the old majesty was still there, who would dare to despise him instead.

Gu Xichao looked up, with a hint of surprise in his playful expression, "Qi Shaoshang, you're really here!"

Qi Shaoshang raised his hand and put the invitation on the table, and said with a calm smile, "If I don't come, how can I really forget you."

A single sentence is full of meaning, and the aftertaste is full of bitterness.

Gu Xichao's eyes changed slightly, "It's okay to forget about the past, anyway, everything is different now, can't you imagine that you invited me to cooperate with you in the past, and now I invite you to my banquet."

Qi Shaoshang looked around, he realized that everything was right and wrong, and he ended up today. Looking back, what Gu Xichao said was a dream, "Gu Xichao, I used to think that you were just an underappreciated talent, and I wanted to help you and send you to the floating clouds." Dian, I didn't expect you to be so sinister, vicious, heartless and ruthless."

Gu Xichao put away his boundless arrogance, looked at Qi Shaoshang and said: "Qi Shaoshang, I admit that you are more affectionate than me. But what's the use! Look at these people, I know they used to be your subordinates, Some are your high-ranking relatives and friends, but they follow me now just like they followed you back then. If you can still let them call you executive today, I will obey you. "

Qi Shaoshang took a deep breath, looking at Gu Xichao now, he looks the same as before, but there is more hostility in his eyes, which is even more gloomy and cold. Listening to him today, I feel that my heart is hurt by him, "Gu Xichao, I I must have been blind in the first place to fall in love with you." The same is true for how much love and hatred are, Qi Shaoshang stared straight at Gu Xichao and said, "Executive? I, Qi Shaoshang, am the sky!"

After a moment of embarrassing silence, Gu Xichao looked at the hundreds of guests and the employees surrounding him. Holding strength in his hand, he looked at Qi Shaoshang who was alone, and an unspeakable feeling came to his heart. You, it's just that the day has changed, Qi Shaoshang, why should you bring yourself to humiliation.

Gu Xichao said: "Today is different. Qi Shaoshang, do you really think you can open up the world?!"

Qi Shaoshang smiled, and a thin piece of paper fell into Gu Xichao's hands.

Gu Xichao was startled, looked at it twice, and his expression changed instantly.

"I see clearly, the approval of Pitian Co., Ltd. to enter the mainland jade market due to improper competition..." Qi Shaoshang spoke very forcefully, watching Gu Xichao's changing expression every moment, and announced Said: "Postponed indefinitely."

Gu Xichao froze on the spot, raised his head in astonishment, he didn't believe that Qi Shaoshang could really decide the life and death of Pitian.

This kind of surprise was all in Qi Shaoshang's expectation. This was not the ending he expected, but some people never know right or wrong, "Gu Xichao, you should be very clear about the meaning of indefinite postponement, and the reason for all this is It's just because Pitian's routine work is you."

The jade market is Gu Xichao's painstaking effort, and the jade market is also the only chance for Pitian to come back!

There is only one meaning of indefinitely postponing, that is, lose!

Gu Xichao's face was pale and he was in a daze. Qi Shaoshang stepped forward to help him, and took the opportunity to whisper: "This is called treating another person in the same way. I am cruel and merciless. I am not as good as you. It is just unfair competition in the mall. Unfortunately, you are still too young."

Gu Xichao was startled suddenly, the arrogance on his face just now didn't even have time to fade away.

All the people present here have changed their expressions, and power is competing. Everyone should protect their own interests first, and they can't control the life and death of others.

The sound of defection, an uproar.

"Executive, our family members are in the hands of Gu Xichao... He threatened us to do this."

This executive call was of course Qi Shaoshang.

Gu Xichao looked at these people, those who had congratulated him loudly just now turned their backs in an instant.

Finally, his gaze was fixed on Qi Shaoshang who was beside him, Gu Xichao smiled sadly, "Qi Shaoshang, this is what you want, okay, okay!" Gu Xichao closed his eyes, his pale face seemed to be filled with deep pain However, those eyes that would not admit defeat snapped open again, and the sad and weak expression immediately turned vicious and cold, "Can a ban and a few pages of torn paper restrain me, Gu Xichao?"

With such a sudden change, Qi Shaoshang felt that Gu Xichao was more unfamiliar than before, meeting him in such an embarrassing and embarrassing way, seeing him smiling sadly, he still felt sorry for him, it was neither near nor far.

"Gu Xichao, remember, from today onwards, the person who escaped is you!"

Qi Shaoshang didn't want to read any more, didn't want to say any more, so he turned around and left.

"Wait!" Gu Xichao's voice came from behind, "I will do a good job with the plan measured by jade."

There was suppressed expectation in his voice, his expression tried his best to hide but still showed sadness, Gu Xichao didn't tell the truth much, but Qi Shaoshang had already heard too many lies.

Without the energy to make a detailed distinction, Qi Shaoshang sighed, and didn't look back, "It's no longer necessary."

Already, really no need.

Late at night, bar.

Qi Shaoshang sat on the bar counter, threw his suit on the nearby chair, rolled up his cuffs, and undid the first two buttons of his skirt. He ordered a glass of whiskey with ice cubes, and began to drink down to the bottom. He knew that No matter how good the amount of alcohol is, such a drinking method will hurt the stomach, but if it is not strong enough, how can it suppress the Cang Ran in my heart.

Standing under the colorful spotlights, Li Nanxing was entrusted with the matter of loyalty, so he had to take a look at Qi Shaoshang for Lei Juan.

Suddenly being held down on the cup, Qi Shaoshang looked up and was startled, "It's you?"

Qi Shao agreed to look again, it was a peaceful and gentle face, without any aggressiveness, "It turned out to be you, Nan Xing!"

Li Nanxing smiled slightly, he knew that he and Gu Xichao looked very much alike, everyone understood Qi Shaoshang's little concern and pretended to be confused, and didn't want to embarrass him any more.

"I often come to this bar too, I didn't expect to meet you today." Li Nanxing asked the server to order a glass of whiskey with ice like Qi Shaoshang's.

Take a sip, it's so spicy!

Li Nanxing frowned slightly while drinking, and Qi Shaoshang made a mistake. At this moment, he really seemed to be, "Don't drink, Nan Xing." He took his cup and patted his coughing back, which was not used to strong alcohol. "If you can drink well and drink whiskey cup after cup, Brother Juan would have drawn you into Lianyun's team long ago. Brother Juan, did he ask you to come to me?"

The drinking order is really tricky, in order to avoid this banquet, Li Nanxing only associates with Lianyun people as friends.

Li Nanxing raised his eyebrows, but did not answer.

Qi Shaoshang smiled and said: "Nan Xing, your greatest strength is that you are not good at lying." After saying this, his expression suddenly darkened, what happened today, what did he do, he would unconsciously think of that person when he said it.

Seeing Qi Shaoshang looking at him, Li Nanxing could not help but ask, "Are you thinking of Gu Xichao?"

"No." Qi Shaoshang lowered his head and drank another cup, and said in a low voice, "I don't remember this person anymore."

Li Nanxing smiled and said, "Hard mouth."

Qi Shaoshang ordered a glass of mild wine for Li Nanxing, clinked the glasses and said, "When did you know about me and him?"

The words were not very fluent, but Li Nanxing understood, and said slowly: "The first time I saw him was in the hospital, and I saw you stayed with him for a long time. Later, I heard from Hao Lian that he lived in your office."

As soon as the office was mentioned, Qi Shaoshang blushed unnaturally, and immediately changed the subject, rambling on, and ended up talking more and more, talking about Gu Xichao's project, describing the wonderful gambling jade, and mentioning Hui Lianyun .

Li Nanxing listened quietly, it was really exciting, and he would raise his glass to drink with Qi Shaoshang, especially when he was betting on jade, he really frowned and was dissatisfied with Gu Xichao's removal of Gao Fengliang's plaque, but he really admired him There are dangers everywhere, and it will defeat Jiuyou.

Drinking until dawn, the noisy bar has been quiet.

"You have said so much, but there is not a single word that blames Gu Xichao."

At this point today, you still remember him better?

Qi Shaoshang let out a long sigh, his eyes suddenly calmed down, calm and gentle like a pool of autumn water, clear and moving, "Actually, I just want to sit quietly with him like this now, and do nothing .”
