half bodyguard
Chapter 2
Gu Shangwei did not get off the car at the door and go in first, but waited for Xu Gu to park the car in the parking lot, and then went in together.
There was a demon singing on the stage, and the music was deafening. He frowned and stopped at the door, then bent down and leaned into Xu Gu's ear.
Xu Gu had to be very serious to realize that he was talking about "B12", and then went to the bar to ask the waiter, and soon a woman in a high-waisted cheongsam led them across the bar to the second floor.
Entering the "B12" box, Xu Gu felt that it was not much better than the one below.The lights are too dim, and the stereo is so loud.
The box is roughly divided into two parts. Once you enter the door, the place where you can see is full of people, singing and singing, drinking and drinking, and guessing.There was a small bar inside, and there were only three people sitting there, and Xu Gu only knew one of them.
Seeing them coming in, Xiao Su came over immediately, said to him in a hurry, "order whatever you want", and took Gu Shangwei to the small bar.
He squeezed a seat among the group of people, and next to him, someone who seemed to be seen by the company shook a beer bottle with one hand and patted him on the shoulder with the other, saying, "I'll call you what you want to eat. If you just want to drink, don't use it." Just open the cup and drink it."
"I want to eat egg fried rice."
The man was stunned for a moment and then laughed loudly, "You actually come to this kind of place to eat fried rice with eggs?"
He smiled wryly: "Today, I just want to eat a whole plate of egg fried rice."
"Okay! I'll call for you."
That person ordered two dozen more drinks while ordering someone to deliver fried rice. It seemed that it would not be so easy to leave tonight.
Taking a peek at Gu Shangwei and the others, they all drank gas and didn't eat anything.When he was in Tangmen before, he didn't seem to have seen that man eat anything, no wonder people with money and power have bad stomachs.
They are the last to go.When Xiao Su went to pay the bill, the man who had always been aloof was slumped on the bar in a disfigured manner, with a cigarette in his mouth, but he still didn't smoke it.
Seeing that there was still a plate of untouched cucumber sticks on the table, Xu Gu brought it in front of him: "It was just delivered, and no one has touched it yet." After a while, the man straightened up and even handed him I don’t even use the toothpicks that come over, I grab the thing in front of me with my hands and stuff it into my mouth.
Xiao Su gave him a parking ticket when he came back, "Usually, you will be given a parking ticket when you eat out, so don't forget to take it. If you enter the parking lot temporarily, you must take the receipt when you leave, otherwise the old man in the finance department I won’t reimburse you.” Seeing that the man was eating, he frowned, and then said, “When we’re leaving, we’ll stop and buy him a carton of milk and a bottle of sugarcane juice when we see a convenience store on the way. [-]. A fried dumpling. If you don’t have fried dumplings, you can buy bread, but you need to heat it first. In the future, you can prepare some digestive biscuits, milk, etc. in the car at any time, because Mr. Gu will not even have time to eat when he is busy. Remember to ask for an invoice as well.”
Seeing Gu Shangwei finished eating, Xiao Su walked over. "Do you need me to take you?"
Shaking his head, "It's enough to have him."
Although he knew that the "he" the other party meant was himself, the man didn't even look up at him.It can be said that since the other party hired him, he has never looked at him directly, but he secretly looked at him when he was not paying attention, and he would not talk to him when he had to talk to him. Feeling a bit uncomfortable with willful ignorance.
When helping the man open the car door, he didn't seem to notice that he was looking for something in his pocket, but when he was about to take it out, the thing fell to the ground and rolled under the car that had just stopped next to him.
Maybe he was really drunk, so he lay down on the ground looking for that thing regardless of his image, but he couldn't find it after searching for a long time.
Xu Gu squatted down next to him and said, "Could it be just under the wheel?" If so, it would be a little troublesome, because the owner of the car just left, and he didn't even notice that his car was pressing on other people's things.
Seeing that the man still ignored him, Xu Gu couldn't bear to pat him on the shoulder.Unexpectedly, the man slammed his hand away and stared at him fiercely.
He's not a carrier, okay? Don't make your disgust so obvious.
"I just want you to get out of the way first." Knowing that Gu Shangwei would not pay attention to himself, he walked to the front of the car, took a deep breath, grabbed the front of the car and slowly exerted force, and the two front wheels of the car gradually left the ground .
Seeing that the man was just staring at everything in front of him in a daze, he was holding his breath and couldn't speak, so he motioned him to look under the car with his eyes.
Gu Shangwei was stunned for a while, and then slowly climbed under the lifted car.
After making sure that the other party had left completely, Xu Gu slowly put down the car.Looking at the slightly deformed pen in the man's hand, he understood: Montblanc, such an expensive pen, no wonder he worked so hard.
But the man just stared at the pen blankly for a while, and suddenly he raised his hand and flew into the trash can, making a loud noise.
Xu Gu was speechless for nearly a minute, what was he doing so desperately just now?
Open the car door again, "Mr. Gu, please get in the car."
After the man got into the car slowly, he returned to the driver's seat, started the car and left.
He knew that the man in the backseat had been secretly staring at his back in a daze, and he didn't even know he was looking at himself in the rearview mirror. This situation continued until he got out of the car to buy something.
"No cane juice."
"Sugarcane juice can protect the liver, you just drank too much alcohol."
"It's too sweet!" The other party still had the same stubborn expression as usual.
"Then change to soy milk." Before the other party answered, he got out of the car without authorization.
When he came back, he saw the corner of the other party's mouth twitching slightly when he took the one-liter bottle of soy milk, Xu Gu felt happy.
Maybe he was really hungry, but that person who was usually so cold as hell raised his head obediently like a child and drank up the one-liter bottle of soy milk, and ate all the two buttered breads, and closed his eyes while gasping for breath. Sucking his milk slowly, squinting, he didn't even know he slowed down on purpose until he'd just finished eating everything and just arrived downstairs at the apartment building.
"Do you want me to walk you to the door?"
The man waved his hands vigorously as he walked staggeringly. He watched the other person walk into the building before driving away.Although Xiao Su once told him that if he wants to drive the car back to his place, he needs the consent of the man, but he feels that even if he sells the other party now, he might not know it himself, and it is useless to ask.
Along the way, thinking about the man's stupid appearance when he was drunk, the corners of his mouth, which had always been well controlled, could not help but bend upwards.
The next morning, he arrived downstairs at Gu Shangwei's house on time at eight o'clock, but the man was already waiting outside, his hair was neatly groomed, and his face was fresh after washing, but the corners of his mouth were forced into a line.Fortunately, he didn't say anything and got into the car directly.
This time is the period when all office workers are dispatched, and the speed of the car is extremely slow.It usually takes less than 10 minutes to drive, but it took nearly 10 minutes.
When the man got out of the car, he remembered something and asked anxiously, "What do you want for breakfast?"
"casual."
"Fried rice noodles?"
"too oily."
"Preserved egg porridge?"
"Too light."
"Stir-fried rice noodles with preserved egg and lean pork porridge?"
The other party fell silent, and walked forward without saying a word.
It seems that Gu Shangwei is the kind of person who desperately wants to save face, when you say what is on his mind, he simply keeps silent.
Although nine o'clock is the company's normal working time, Xu Gu delivered breakfast to Gu Shangwei's office at eight forty o'clock, which made him quite upset, as can be seen from the sullen face.
Gu Shangwei will be in the company all day today, he calculated the time, he can sleep in the office in the morning, and go to the eighteenth floor to play for three hours in the afternoon.But before that, he has other things to imitate.
It was probably because his appearance was not outstanding enough to arouse hostility from male colleagues, and not enough to cause competition among female colleagues, so even though he was only at work the next day, other colleagues were very kind and tried to answer his questions as much as possible.
"Mr. Gu asks others to strictly abide by the appointed time. Basically, he always arrives 5 minutes earlier than the appointed time." Then it is fine for him to arrive 10 minutes before the appointed time.
"Although he looks very picky, he can eat anything and is very easy to raise. And he doesn't like to waste. Basically, he will eat whatever you buy, and he will eat very cleanly, so you can't see his preferences at all. .” That’s easy.
"I forget everything when I work, even forgetting to eat. If you don't give him something to eat, he won't take the initiative to find something to eat. For him, it is better to go to work than to spend time on eating. "This can already be seen.
"It's almost impossible to tell whether he is sick or not, because he will still go according to the schedule, and his face does not change throughout the year, but he has also had two or three times of illness that requires hospitalization to recover." Only two or three times. ?Then he is lucky.
"It was only at the employee sports meeting last year that he didn't look like he was wearing a suit. He really looked much younger in Versace casual clothes. The suits and shirts are all custom-made." This is irrelevant.
Even though he needed to catch up on sleep, the phone in the president's office kept ringing. That's not counting. People in the company rushed over to find Xiaosu, so he could only half Squinting half asleep and half awake.
"Minister Su, the wharf has come to inform Yongan that the 48 containers of goods have arrived. If you don't board the ship within [-] hours, the shipping company will collect a detention fee by the hour!"
"What do you mean by America?"
"They have sent a written notice stating that they will not accept the shipment, and they are required to send them a shipment that complies with the contract within [-] days."
"Okay, bring the marketing department and the marketing manager over here."
"Minister Su, a reminder letter has been sent from Australia. If their [-] containers of goods do not come out within three days, they will miss the final delivery deadline!"
"Cindy sent an E-mail to reply to the Australian side, and we will deliver the goods on board the ship according to the agreed time. I'll go to Mr. Gu's office."
"It's terrible! Two things happen at the same time." Xiao Su put the statistics of the finance department in front of Gu Shangwei.
"This is what Lao Fan wanted. He already knew a lot about the details of our new case. Yesterday he clearly asked me to give up the new case, otherwise he would not Make it easy for us."
"Do you even know the details? Where did his news come from? The question is how to deal with this mess now? For the [-] containers sent to the United States, another company in Los Angeles is willing to receive [-] containers. A Washington-based company wanted eight containers, but the shipping costs would be more than we could afford if re-routed to Washington.”
"Have you talked to them about increasing the receiver-to-pay shipping rate?"
"They don't agree, because the cost will be close to the transaction price of the same goods in the United States, and they will not make a profit."
"Contact them again to see if they can pick up in Los Angeles instead."
"It's impossible. It would be more expensive to change other means of transportation in Los Angeles to Washington."
"The goods received in Los Angeles do not necessarily have to be shipped to Washington. The original AL company ordered [-] containers of goods at once, which shows that the local company has the ability to digest the goods. You can ask the company in Washington to digest the goods in Los Angeles."
"This is also a way out, maybe it will work."
"In addition, tell the AL company about this news. If they really don't want this batch of goods, the company in Washington will digest the goods locally and then ask us to re-ship them. At that time, the market demand has already A lot has changed."
"This is really a brilliant move! AL Company may be begging us to return the goods to them at that time, I will arrange it immediately!"
After running out excitedly, Xiao Su came back half an hour later. "Washington said that it can be considered. AL has not responded yet, but it should not let others take over the market in vain. I think it will take the initiative to contact us soon. The rest is the Australian batch. Regarding the problem with the goods, the deadline for Yongan to deliver to us is three days later than the deadline for us to deliver to Australia. That guy Lao Fan must delay the delivery to us until the end, so it will not be able to catch up with the normal delivery in Australia. Shipping time. If it is changed to air freight, not only the freight is too high, but also the cargo space of the originally booked shipping company has to be paid, which means that we have paid double freight. On the other hand, Zhouming’s asking price is higher than the retail price outside. , it seems that they are on the same side as Yongan this time."
"How about the finance department?"
"There are three calculations, but no matter how you calculate it, the amount is too large. When negotiating the contract, the percentage of compensation was too high."
"Can you contact the person in charge in Australia?"
"I can't get in touch! Now the other party seems to know that there is a problem with our delivery, and they are rushing us through their assistants. They will not answer our phone calls for explanations! There is no reply to the e-mails they sent!"
"You continue to track things in the United States. I'm going to the local office of the Australian company now. You go and call that..." After he stopped talking, Gu Shangwei realized that he hadn't remembered the name of the new driver.
"Xu Gu? The new driver?"
"Yes, it's him, you tell him to go down and drive."
"But is this okay? If you don't make an appointment first, the other party may not necessarily meet you."
Gu Shangwei got up and put on a suit jacket, "It is said to be an office, but in fact there is only one person working. If you make an appointment under the current situation, you will not be able to find anyone in the past. This person should be available through their company's internal methods." Get in touch with the person in charge of this matter."
"Do you know that this person is willing to help you?"
"At that time, he took the initiative to contact us to express his desire for this batch of goods. If something goes wrong, it should be of no benefit to him. The marketing department is in charge of this case, right? Let him work with me past."
"Yes, I'll arrange it right away."
Hurrying back to the office, I saw Xu Gu sleeping on the last empty desk like a slug, and Xiao Su, who was full of anger, kicked him on the chair and looked at him with satisfaction. The appearance of waking up after being frightened.
"You're so exhausted during the day, did you go to be a thief somewhere at night?"
After stretching comfortably, Xu Gu still looked lazy and sleepy, "Didn't you say that I can sleep whatever I want when I have nothing to do?"
"There is something to do now! Go down immediately and drive the car to the temporary waiting point in front of the building. Mr. Gu will use the car later." Xiao Su said angrily, "Really. Zhang Lei won't be like you It looks like muddy mud, but they are always ready."
Yawning, Xu Gu stood up, patted the car keys in his pocket, "I have seen the Zhang Lei you mentioned last night, but that's all."
"What is it like...how did you meet him? Where?"
"It's at Tangmen."
"Tang Sect, when Mr. Gu met Lao Fan? How could he appear at that time and place?" Xiao Su's face turned pale, with an extremely bad premonition.
"This question should be asked to him instead of me." Xu Gu said with a smile.He waved to the others in the office and walked out slowly.
When sending Gu Shangwei to the elevator, Xiao Su found an opportunity to whisper in his ear: "I heard that Zhang Lei was with you yesterday..."
The man turned his head abruptly: "Do you have too much time? You still have time to manage when and where the fired employees go."
"I don't mean anything else!" Xiao Su was a little anxious, "I just think that when Zhang Lei was your private driver, he often accompanied you to negotiate and eat with the suppliers of new cases. Hear something. To him, the news may not mean much, but if it's a wily old Fan, he can see what we're doing right away! And why didn't you mention it to me?"
"Then what do you mean? No matter what I hear, I feel that you just want to investigate Zhang Lei for divulging commercial secrets!"
"I've said it all, I don't mean anything else! The news has already been leaked, so what's the use of looking into Zhang Lei again? Although his behavior of disclosing information about his former employer to his current employer is very shameful, it's no surprise that Lao Fan will hire you This is the purpose of his former private driver. What we need to guard against is not Zhang Lei but Lao Fan! What we have to do now is to determine the scope of Zhang Lei's knowledge, so that we can prevent Lao Fan from interfering with us. And only you know this matter best!"
Looking at the rising elevator signal, Gu Shangwei said softly: "I have never told Zhang Lei anything about work, and I am very clear about this. You asked Lily for my itinerary , I know who Zhang Lei accompanied me to meet, and I will probably hear something. Lao Fan may deduce based on what Zhang Lei said, and then find someone to investigate specifically. The information he has must exceed our expectations. .All relevant suppliers have to reconfirm once again to prevent any accidents.”
"Yes. I'll leave things to you in Australia." He waved Xiao Xu who was standing far away and didn't know what they were talking about. After watching them close the elevator door, Xiao Su returned to the office to deal with the excess work.
Sitting in the car and reporting the address to the man driving, Gu Shangwei felt an indescribably tired feeling.When he saw Zhang Lei in Tangmen yesterday, he knew what happened, but he always subconsciously didn't think about it, and didn't want to pay attention to it.Even if this indulgent attitude would lead to very serious consequences, he just didn't want to take care of it.Because it feels too uncomfortable to be betrayed, especially by someone who is so important to me.
The person in charge of the office changed his face when he saw them appearing. He was glad that he didn't call in advance, otherwise he would really be invisible when he came here now.
"Mr. Gu is here so free, I wonder if the issue of coming out has been resolved?" The man had a stiff face, not polite at all.
"It turns out that Mr. Zhao also heard that there is a problem with coming out of the closet, and that's why I came here."
"It's impossible to delay coming out!" Mr. Zhao growled, "Because it's not up to me, nor the person in charge of the case in Australia. Let it go! The Australian government in a few days A large-scale exhibition will be held. Our head office has rented a hall for this batch of goods and made relevant publicity. If the goods do not leave here within three days, there will be no way to catch up with the exhibition. By then What needs to be compensated is not only the compensation for delayed shipments, but also all the losses of our company, including the rent of the clubhouse and publicity fees. Most importantly, our company's reputation!"
"I'm sure there are other ways to solve it..."
"I have consulted with Wing On many times. They said that they will ship to you according to the requirements of the agreement between you, but there is a time difference between this and the contract signed between us. The current situation is all because of what you have done to us. Made some false, unfulfilled promises!"
"There are indeed some uncertainties when signing the contract, because the contract we signed stipulates that you give us [-] days to prepare the goods, and the goods must be shipped out of the cabinet within [-] days. And our long-term cooperation with Yongan The agreement stipulates that after we place the order, they will deliver the goods to our designated place within [-] days at the latest. In this case, I still signed the contract, based on the verbal agreement made by the boss of Yongan Therefore, we also unconditionally accepted the relatively harsh compensation conditions for delayed shipments in the contract. The current situation is caused by me being too gullible as the person in charge, and I am willing to pay the price. But I think that now This is not only useless, but also too empty. The most important thing at present is that we should solve the problem as soon as possible within the last three days and come out on time. This is a good thing for our company and you. Isn't it?"
After being silent for a while, Mr. Zhao said angrily: "Our company has been investigating this case for a long time, and these [-] containers of goods are just the beginning. I thought we would continue to cooperate happily! Originally, the head office They wanted to go to India, and I tried my best to win it over there. Do you know how much energy I spent on this? Days and nights without rest, I searched for information and contacted the factory to see the goods. Because There is no way to confirm the purchase with the factory, and they are constantly kicked out as commercial spies. In the end, they have to spend their own money to buy prototypes to study and write reports. It is hard to win the company's largest purchase plan this year, but you make it like this If you really can’t come out by then, don’t say that the head office wants to make trouble for you, I will make trouble for you too!”
"So, does Mr. Zhao have any good suggestions that can break the current deadlock?"
"Yong'an really doesn't agree to ship the goods to you in advance?"
"I'm really sorry, because Wing On happened to have some personal grievances with our company recently."
"That's impossible. You have to buy from other companies and ship them to us."
"We are also starting in this direction, but the companies with these volumes disagree, and Yongan's warehouse now only has [-] containers of goods to be sent to us, even if we entrust a third-party company to buy from them goods, and they can’t sell to others what we’ve placed an order for.”
"What I mean is that when you buy products from other companies, you don't necessarily need products from Yong'an."
Gu Shangwei's heart moved, "Mr. Zhao has done in-depth research on this batch of goods before, and he must be very clear about which ones are closer to Yongan's batch."
Mr. Zhao smiled triumphantly, "The original draft of the contract that you signed was also a draft that I drew up when I submitted the report. Attached are samples and instructions. Since I haven’t decided which one to use, when I drafted the contract, I only clearly indicated the use function and manufacturing materials, and did not specify which company’s product to use. Model. Compared with the products of these two companies at the head office, I feel that there is not much difference in function and manufacturing materials, only the appearance is different, but Yongan’s is relatively cheaper, and the scale of the factory is large. You can also see other products of the company, so the head office decided to use Yongan. At that time, I went directly to Yongan to negotiate, but they signed a five-year long-term cooperation agreement with you, and all the goods for export are represented by your company. I came to you as a last resort. If the provisions on the goods in the contract have not changed much, you might as well try to contact another company. The later matters are mainly left to the people at the head office. What is the change in the contract? I don't know. I also know that it is inconvenient for you to disclose this matter to me. If you think my method works, I will try to contact you first. If it doesn't work, you should hurry back and talk to me. Yong'an, hurry up."
"Mr. Zhao is indeed a thoughtful person. If he returns to the head office in Australia in time, he will definitely accomplish a lot. Don't forget us Tang Yang. Then please contact Mr. Zhao for help now."
"To be honest, I don't dare to contact you any more after this time. I'm scared, really scared. But let me contact you now."
During Mr. Zhao's call, Gu Shangwei politely left the office and waited in the living room outside.
Xiao Xu walked around there with a pale face. Although he was the main window in charge of this case, in fact, he was doing chores from the beginning to the end, and this time such a big incident happened.He followed Mr. Gu to coordinate, and Mr. Gu was the one who came forward. He had to worry about whether he would have to start looking for a job again in two days.
So as soon as Gu Shangwei came out, he saw Xiao Xu rushing over to ask this and that, while his private driver was sitting on the sofa leisurely making Kung Fu tea.
In less than 5 minutes, Mr. Zhao came out and handed him a business card.
"When I consulted Yongan two days ago about the situation of the goods, I had a premonition that this situation would happen. I had already discussed this issue with their boss Luo Jiaxiong yesterday, and they said they could talk to you. Now you go directly to their factory to find Boss Luo looks at the goods."
Gu Shangwei looked at the location on the business card in a neighboring city. It would take at least an hour and a half to drive there. Then he checked the time, and it was already past one o'clock at noon.
"Okay, I'll go there right now, I really need Mr. Zhao to worry about it, and you will be the biggest contributor after it's done."
"Hurry up and deal with this matter, I snickered." Mr. Zhao, who was about to issue an order to evict the guests, stopped when he saw Xu Gu making tea, walked over and sat down in front of Xu Gu.
"You can do this too? Judging by your gestures, you are quite professional."
"I can't help it. The former chief liked it, so I learned a little bit. Try it?" After washing the teacup again, and brewing another pot, the tea poured out is exactly four cups, full but not overflowing.
Mr. Zhao took a cup and drank it first.
"The tea leaves are placed just right, the water is boiling enough, and the brewing time is just right. Not bad, come up when you have time, let's make tea." Mr. Zhao rarely smiled.
Xu Gu smiled and motioned Gu Shangwei and Xiao Xu to sit down and drink too.
Looking at the thumb-sized teacup filled with iron-red but clear liquid, Gu Shangwei didn't know what to do.He has always only drank coffee and English black tea, and has never drank tea in such a small cup.
"Kungfu tea is usually poured out after brewing a pot, and the tea will not stay in the pot for too long, so if there is too much tea in the cup, you can pour some out and drink it. And there will inevitably be some small tea at the bottom of the cup slag, so you don’t have to drink to the bottom like drinking wine, and the tea at the bottom can be poured out.”
With that said, Xu Gu steadily picked up the cup of tea in front of Gu Shangwei, tilted it slightly, poured some tea on the coffee table dedicated to Kung Fu tea, and then raised his hands in front of him. He was a little surprised by the thoughtful service and was stunned for a while. over there.
"Drink, these are Pu-erh teas. Drinking this kind of tea is very popular recently. It is good for the stomach and helps digestion. It is best to drink it after meals. Nowadays, big people like this kind of tea. The old people who pay more attention to this kind of tea take this kind of tea. Those who worship Avalokitesvara are good things." Waiting for Xu Gu to brew the second cup of tea, Mr. Zhao hurriedly urged them to drink it.
Gu Shangwei could only reach out to take the teacup. The small teacup was exchanged between the twenty fingers of the two men. It wasn't just the temperature of the tea that made him feel hot.
Seeing that he had taken the teacup, Xu Gu picked up his own cup and drank until there was only the last tea mixed with tea dregs left, and then poured the tea on the coffee table.
Gu Shangwei also imitated him and slowly sucked the tea in the small cup into his mouth, and gently slid it down his throat.A little sweet, a clear sweetness, completely different from the sweetness of English black tea with milk, and also has a unique fresh fragrance of tea itself.
Xiao Xu also drank the tea like them.
After three rounds of tea, they left.
Let Xiao Xu go back to the company first, and then give Xu Gu the address.When Xu Gu spread out the map to study the route, he called Xiao Su, briefly explained the situation, and asked Xiao Su to check the information of the company called Changji by the way.
Before the car started on the road, Xu Gu asked him if he wanted to find a place to eat first, and he said no.After a while, Xu Gu reminded him that there was something to eat in the dark cabinet behind the front seat. He opened it and saw no less than ten digestive biscuits, a whole box of 24 boxes of long-lasting milk, some sausages, soybeans in tomato sauce Things like canned food that can be eaten immediately.
He slowly opened a digestive biscuit, and after eating two pieces, he realized that Xu Gu was looking at him in the rearview mirror.After being stunned for a while, he suddenly realized that the other party is also a human being who needs to eat. Did asking him if he wanted to eat just now meant that he was also hungry and wanted to sit down to eat?Thinking of this, he asked a little guilty: "Are you hungry? Do you want to get out of the car and have something to eat?"
"Me?" Xu Gu smiled, "I just ate two bowls of ramen downstairs."
Hearing this unexpected answer, his hands paused, and a feeling of abandonment that he had never experienced before slowly spread.
Watching the man from the rearview mirror uncomfortably changed his sitting position a few times, continued to eat dry digestive biscuits without saying a word, and opened a box of milk to drink when he was about to choke, the corners of Xu Gu's mouth could not help but slightly Bend upward.Recently, his face has become more and more free-spirited.
There was a demon singing on the stage, and the music was deafening. He frowned and stopped at the door, then bent down and leaned into Xu Gu's ear.
Xu Gu had to be very serious to realize that he was talking about "B12", and then went to the bar to ask the waiter, and soon a woman in a high-waisted cheongsam led them across the bar to the second floor.
Entering the "B12" box, Xu Gu felt that it was not much better than the one below.The lights are too dim, and the stereo is so loud.
The box is roughly divided into two parts. Once you enter the door, the place where you can see is full of people, singing and singing, drinking and drinking, and guessing.There was a small bar inside, and there were only three people sitting there, and Xu Gu only knew one of them.
Seeing them coming in, Xiao Su came over immediately, said to him in a hurry, "order whatever you want", and took Gu Shangwei to the small bar.
He squeezed a seat among the group of people, and next to him, someone who seemed to be seen by the company shook a beer bottle with one hand and patted him on the shoulder with the other, saying, "I'll call you what you want to eat. If you just want to drink, don't use it." Just open the cup and drink it."
"I want to eat egg fried rice."
The man was stunned for a moment and then laughed loudly, "You actually come to this kind of place to eat fried rice with eggs?"
He smiled wryly: "Today, I just want to eat a whole plate of egg fried rice."
"Okay! I'll call for you."
That person ordered two dozen more drinks while ordering someone to deliver fried rice. It seemed that it would not be so easy to leave tonight.
Taking a peek at Gu Shangwei and the others, they all drank gas and didn't eat anything.When he was in Tangmen before, he didn't seem to have seen that man eat anything, no wonder people with money and power have bad stomachs.
They are the last to go.When Xiao Su went to pay the bill, the man who had always been aloof was slumped on the bar in a disfigured manner, with a cigarette in his mouth, but he still didn't smoke it.
Seeing that there was still a plate of untouched cucumber sticks on the table, Xu Gu brought it in front of him: "It was just delivered, and no one has touched it yet." After a while, the man straightened up and even handed him I don’t even use the toothpicks that come over, I grab the thing in front of me with my hands and stuff it into my mouth.
Xiao Su gave him a parking ticket when he came back, "Usually, you will be given a parking ticket when you eat out, so don't forget to take it. If you enter the parking lot temporarily, you must take the receipt when you leave, otherwise the old man in the finance department I won’t reimburse you.” Seeing that the man was eating, he frowned, and then said, “When we’re leaving, we’ll stop and buy him a carton of milk and a bottle of sugarcane juice when we see a convenience store on the way. [-]. A fried dumpling. If you don’t have fried dumplings, you can buy bread, but you need to heat it first. In the future, you can prepare some digestive biscuits, milk, etc. in the car at any time, because Mr. Gu will not even have time to eat when he is busy. Remember to ask for an invoice as well.”
Seeing Gu Shangwei finished eating, Xiao Su walked over. "Do you need me to take you?"
Shaking his head, "It's enough to have him."
Although he knew that the "he" the other party meant was himself, the man didn't even look up at him.It can be said that since the other party hired him, he has never looked at him directly, but he secretly looked at him when he was not paying attention, and he would not talk to him when he had to talk to him. Feeling a bit uncomfortable with willful ignorance.
When helping the man open the car door, he didn't seem to notice that he was looking for something in his pocket, but when he was about to take it out, the thing fell to the ground and rolled under the car that had just stopped next to him.
Maybe he was really drunk, so he lay down on the ground looking for that thing regardless of his image, but he couldn't find it after searching for a long time.
Xu Gu squatted down next to him and said, "Could it be just under the wheel?" If so, it would be a little troublesome, because the owner of the car just left, and he didn't even notice that his car was pressing on other people's things.
Seeing that the man still ignored him, Xu Gu couldn't bear to pat him on the shoulder.Unexpectedly, the man slammed his hand away and stared at him fiercely.
He's not a carrier, okay? Don't make your disgust so obvious.
"I just want you to get out of the way first." Knowing that Gu Shangwei would not pay attention to himself, he walked to the front of the car, took a deep breath, grabbed the front of the car and slowly exerted force, and the two front wheels of the car gradually left the ground .
Seeing that the man was just staring at everything in front of him in a daze, he was holding his breath and couldn't speak, so he motioned him to look under the car with his eyes.
Gu Shangwei was stunned for a while, and then slowly climbed under the lifted car.
After making sure that the other party had left completely, Xu Gu slowly put down the car.Looking at the slightly deformed pen in the man's hand, he understood: Montblanc, such an expensive pen, no wonder he worked so hard.
But the man just stared at the pen blankly for a while, and suddenly he raised his hand and flew into the trash can, making a loud noise.
Xu Gu was speechless for nearly a minute, what was he doing so desperately just now?
Open the car door again, "Mr. Gu, please get in the car."
After the man got into the car slowly, he returned to the driver's seat, started the car and left.
He knew that the man in the backseat had been secretly staring at his back in a daze, and he didn't even know he was looking at himself in the rearview mirror. This situation continued until he got out of the car to buy something.
"No cane juice."
"Sugarcane juice can protect the liver, you just drank too much alcohol."
"It's too sweet!" The other party still had the same stubborn expression as usual.
"Then change to soy milk." Before the other party answered, he got out of the car without authorization.
When he came back, he saw the corner of the other party's mouth twitching slightly when he took the one-liter bottle of soy milk, Xu Gu felt happy.
Maybe he was really hungry, but that person who was usually so cold as hell raised his head obediently like a child and drank up the one-liter bottle of soy milk, and ate all the two buttered breads, and closed his eyes while gasping for breath. Sucking his milk slowly, squinting, he didn't even know he slowed down on purpose until he'd just finished eating everything and just arrived downstairs at the apartment building.
"Do you want me to walk you to the door?"
The man waved his hands vigorously as he walked staggeringly. He watched the other person walk into the building before driving away.Although Xiao Su once told him that if he wants to drive the car back to his place, he needs the consent of the man, but he feels that even if he sells the other party now, he might not know it himself, and it is useless to ask.
Along the way, thinking about the man's stupid appearance when he was drunk, the corners of his mouth, which had always been well controlled, could not help but bend upwards.
The next morning, he arrived downstairs at Gu Shangwei's house on time at eight o'clock, but the man was already waiting outside, his hair was neatly groomed, and his face was fresh after washing, but the corners of his mouth were forced into a line.Fortunately, he didn't say anything and got into the car directly.
This time is the period when all office workers are dispatched, and the speed of the car is extremely slow.It usually takes less than 10 minutes to drive, but it took nearly 10 minutes.
When the man got out of the car, he remembered something and asked anxiously, "What do you want for breakfast?"
"casual."
"Fried rice noodles?"
"too oily."
"Preserved egg porridge?"
"Too light."
"Stir-fried rice noodles with preserved egg and lean pork porridge?"
The other party fell silent, and walked forward without saying a word.
It seems that Gu Shangwei is the kind of person who desperately wants to save face, when you say what is on his mind, he simply keeps silent.
Although nine o'clock is the company's normal working time, Xu Gu delivered breakfast to Gu Shangwei's office at eight forty o'clock, which made him quite upset, as can be seen from the sullen face.
Gu Shangwei will be in the company all day today, he calculated the time, he can sleep in the office in the morning, and go to the eighteenth floor to play for three hours in the afternoon.But before that, he has other things to imitate.
It was probably because his appearance was not outstanding enough to arouse hostility from male colleagues, and not enough to cause competition among female colleagues, so even though he was only at work the next day, other colleagues were very kind and tried to answer his questions as much as possible.
"Mr. Gu asks others to strictly abide by the appointed time. Basically, he always arrives 5 minutes earlier than the appointed time." Then it is fine for him to arrive 10 minutes before the appointed time.
"Although he looks very picky, he can eat anything and is very easy to raise. And he doesn't like to waste. Basically, he will eat whatever you buy, and he will eat very cleanly, so you can't see his preferences at all. .” That’s easy.
"I forget everything when I work, even forgetting to eat. If you don't give him something to eat, he won't take the initiative to find something to eat. For him, it is better to go to work than to spend time on eating. "This can already be seen.
"It's almost impossible to tell whether he is sick or not, because he will still go according to the schedule, and his face does not change throughout the year, but he has also had two or three times of illness that requires hospitalization to recover." Only two or three times. ?Then he is lucky.
"It was only at the employee sports meeting last year that he didn't look like he was wearing a suit. He really looked much younger in Versace casual clothes. The suits and shirts are all custom-made." This is irrelevant.
Even though he needed to catch up on sleep, the phone in the president's office kept ringing. That's not counting. People in the company rushed over to find Xiaosu, so he could only half Squinting half asleep and half awake.
"Minister Su, the wharf has come to inform Yongan that the 48 containers of goods have arrived. If you don't board the ship within [-] hours, the shipping company will collect a detention fee by the hour!"
"What do you mean by America?"
"They have sent a written notice stating that they will not accept the shipment, and they are required to send them a shipment that complies with the contract within [-] days."
"Okay, bring the marketing department and the marketing manager over here."
"Minister Su, a reminder letter has been sent from Australia. If their [-] containers of goods do not come out within three days, they will miss the final delivery deadline!"
"Cindy sent an E-mail to reply to the Australian side, and we will deliver the goods on board the ship according to the agreed time. I'll go to Mr. Gu's office."
"It's terrible! Two things happen at the same time." Xiao Su put the statistics of the finance department in front of Gu Shangwei.
"This is what Lao Fan wanted. He already knew a lot about the details of our new case. Yesterday he clearly asked me to give up the new case, otherwise he would not Make it easy for us."
"Do you even know the details? Where did his news come from? The question is how to deal with this mess now? For the [-] containers sent to the United States, another company in Los Angeles is willing to receive [-] containers. A Washington-based company wanted eight containers, but the shipping costs would be more than we could afford if re-routed to Washington.”
"Have you talked to them about increasing the receiver-to-pay shipping rate?"
"They don't agree, because the cost will be close to the transaction price of the same goods in the United States, and they will not make a profit."
"Contact them again to see if they can pick up in Los Angeles instead."
"It's impossible. It would be more expensive to change other means of transportation in Los Angeles to Washington."
"The goods received in Los Angeles do not necessarily have to be shipped to Washington. The original AL company ordered [-] containers of goods at once, which shows that the local company has the ability to digest the goods. You can ask the company in Washington to digest the goods in Los Angeles."
"This is also a way out, maybe it will work."
"In addition, tell the AL company about this news. If they really don't want this batch of goods, the company in Washington will digest the goods locally and then ask us to re-ship them. At that time, the market demand has already A lot has changed."
"This is really a brilliant move! AL Company may be begging us to return the goods to them at that time, I will arrange it immediately!"
After running out excitedly, Xiao Su came back half an hour later. "Washington said that it can be considered. AL has not responded yet, but it should not let others take over the market in vain. I think it will take the initiative to contact us soon. The rest is the Australian batch. Regarding the problem with the goods, the deadline for Yongan to deliver to us is three days later than the deadline for us to deliver to Australia. That guy Lao Fan must delay the delivery to us until the end, so it will not be able to catch up with the normal delivery in Australia. Shipping time. If it is changed to air freight, not only the freight is too high, but also the cargo space of the originally booked shipping company has to be paid, which means that we have paid double freight. On the other hand, Zhouming’s asking price is higher than the retail price outside. , it seems that they are on the same side as Yongan this time."
"How about the finance department?"
"There are three calculations, but no matter how you calculate it, the amount is too large. When negotiating the contract, the percentage of compensation was too high."
"Can you contact the person in charge in Australia?"
"I can't get in touch! Now the other party seems to know that there is a problem with our delivery, and they are rushing us through their assistants. They will not answer our phone calls for explanations! There is no reply to the e-mails they sent!"
"You continue to track things in the United States. I'm going to the local office of the Australian company now. You go and call that..." After he stopped talking, Gu Shangwei realized that he hadn't remembered the name of the new driver.
"Xu Gu? The new driver?"
"Yes, it's him, you tell him to go down and drive."
"But is this okay? If you don't make an appointment first, the other party may not necessarily meet you."
Gu Shangwei got up and put on a suit jacket, "It is said to be an office, but in fact there is only one person working. If you make an appointment under the current situation, you will not be able to find anyone in the past. This person should be available through their company's internal methods." Get in touch with the person in charge of this matter."
"Do you know that this person is willing to help you?"
"At that time, he took the initiative to contact us to express his desire for this batch of goods. If something goes wrong, it should be of no benefit to him. The marketing department is in charge of this case, right? Let him work with me past."
"Yes, I'll arrange it right away."
Hurrying back to the office, I saw Xu Gu sleeping on the last empty desk like a slug, and Xiao Su, who was full of anger, kicked him on the chair and looked at him with satisfaction. The appearance of waking up after being frightened.
"You're so exhausted during the day, did you go to be a thief somewhere at night?"
After stretching comfortably, Xu Gu still looked lazy and sleepy, "Didn't you say that I can sleep whatever I want when I have nothing to do?"
"There is something to do now! Go down immediately and drive the car to the temporary waiting point in front of the building. Mr. Gu will use the car later." Xiao Su said angrily, "Really. Zhang Lei won't be like you It looks like muddy mud, but they are always ready."
Yawning, Xu Gu stood up, patted the car keys in his pocket, "I have seen the Zhang Lei you mentioned last night, but that's all."
"What is it like...how did you meet him? Where?"
"It's at Tangmen."
"Tang Sect, when Mr. Gu met Lao Fan? How could he appear at that time and place?" Xiao Su's face turned pale, with an extremely bad premonition.
"This question should be asked to him instead of me." Xu Gu said with a smile.He waved to the others in the office and walked out slowly.
When sending Gu Shangwei to the elevator, Xiao Su found an opportunity to whisper in his ear: "I heard that Zhang Lei was with you yesterday..."
The man turned his head abruptly: "Do you have too much time? You still have time to manage when and where the fired employees go."
"I don't mean anything else!" Xiao Su was a little anxious, "I just think that when Zhang Lei was your private driver, he often accompanied you to negotiate and eat with the suppliers of new cases. Hear something. To him, the news may not mean much, but if it's a wily old Fan, he can see what we're doing right away! And why didn't you mention it to me?"
"Then what do you mean? No matter what I hear, I feel that you just want to investigate Zhang Lei for divulging commercial secrets!"
"I've said it all, I don't mean anything else! The news has already been leaked, so what's the use of looking into Zhang Lei again? Although his behavior of disclosing information about his former employer to his current employer is very shameful, it's no surprise that Lao Fan will hire you This is the purpose of his former private driver. What we need to guard against is not Zhang Lei but Lao Fan! What we have to do now is to determine the scope of Zhang Lei's knowledge, so that we can prevent Lao Fan from interfering with us. And only you know this matter best!"
Looking at the rising elevator signal, Gu Shangwei said softly: "I have never told Zhang Lei anything about work, and I am very clear about this. You asked Lily for my itinerary , I know who Zhang Lei accompanied me to meet, and I will probably hear something. Lao Fan may deduce based on what Zhang Lei said, and then find someone to investigate specifically. The information he has must exceed our expectations. .All relevant suppliers have to reconfirm once again to prevent any accidents.”
"Yes. I'll leave things to you in Australia." He waved Xiao Xu who was standing far away and didn't know what they were talking about. After watching them close the elevator door, Xiao Su returned to the office to deal with the excess work.
Sitting in the car and reporting the address to the man driving, Gu Shangwei felt an indescribably tired feeling.When he saw Zhang Lei in Tangmen yesterday, he knew what happened, but he always subconsciously didn't think about it, and didn't want to pay attention to it.Even if this indulgent attitude would lead to very serious consequences, he just didn't want to take care of it.Because it feels too uncomfortable to be betrayed, especially by someone who is so important to me.
The person in charge of the office changed his face when he saw them appearing. He was glad that he didn't call in advance, otherwise he would really be invisible when he came here now.
"Mr. Gu is here so free, I wonder if the issue of coming out has been resolved?" The man had a stiff face, not polite at all.
"It turns out that Mr. Zhao also heard that there is a problem with coming out of the closet, and that's why I came here."
"It's impossible to delay coming out!" Mr. Zhao growled, "Because it's not up to me, nor the person in charge of the case in Australia. Let it go! The Australian government in a few days A large-scale exhibition will be held. Our head office has rented a hall for this batch of goods and made relevant publicity. If the goods do not leave here within three days, there will be no way to catch up with the exhibition. By then What needs to be compensated is not only the compensation for delayed shipments, but also all the losses of our company, including the rent of the clubhouse and publicity fees. Most importantly, our company's reputation!"
"I'm sure there are other ways to solve it..."
"I have consulted with Wing On many times. They said that they will ship to you according to the requirements of the agreement between you, but there is a time difference between this and the contract signed between us. The current situation is all because of what you have done to us. Made some false, unfulfilled promises!"
"There are indeed some uncertainties when signing the contract, because the contract we signed stipulates that you give us [-] days to prepare the goods, and the goods must be shipped out of the cabinet within [-] days. And our long-term cooperation with Yongan The agreement stipulates that after we place the order, they will deliver the goods to our designated place within [-] days at the latest. In this case, I still signed the contract, based on the verbal agreement made by the boss of Yongan Therefore, we also unconditionally accepted the relatively harsh compensation conditions for delayed shipments in the contract. The current situation is caused by me being too gullible as the person in charge, and I am willing to pay the price. But I think that now This is not only useless, but also too empty. The most important thing at present is that we should solve the problem as soon as possible within the last three days and come out on time. This is a good thing for our company and you. Isn't it?"
After being silent for a while, Mr. Zhao said angrily: "Our company has been investigating this case for a long time, and these [-] containers of goods are just the beginning. I thought we would continue to cooperate happily! Originally, the head office They wanted to go to India, and I tried my best to win it over there. Do you know how much energy I spent on this? Days and nights without rest, I searched for information and contacted the factory to see the goods. Because There is no way to confirm the purchase with the factory, and they are constantly kicked out as commercial spies. In the end, they have to spend their own money to buy prototypes to study and write reports. It is hard to win the company's largest purchase plan this year, but you make it like this If you really can’t come out by then, don’t say that the head office wants to make trouble for you, I will make trouble for you too!”
"So, does Mr. Zhao have any good suggestions that can break the current deadlock?"
"Yong'an really doesn't agree to ship the goods to you in advance?"
"I'm really sorry, because Wing On happened to have some personal grievances with our company recently."
"That's impossible. You have to buy from other companies and ship them to us."
"We are also starting in this direction, but the companies with these volumes disagree, and Yongan's warehouse now only has [-] containers of goods to be sent to us, even if we entrust a third-party company to buy from them goods, and they can’t sell to others what we’ve placed an order for.”
"What I mean is that when you buy products from other companies, you don't necessarily need products from Yong'an."
Gu Shangwei's heart moved, "Mr. Zhao has done in-depth research on this batch of goods before, and he must be very clear about which ones are closer to Yongan's batch."
Mr. Zhao smiled triumphantly, "The original draft of the contract that you signed was also a draft that I drew up when I submitted the report. Attached are samples and instructions. Since I haven’t decided which one to use, when I drafted the contract, I only clearly indicated the use function and manufacturing materials, and did not specify which company’s product to use. Model. Compared with the products of these two companies at the head office, I feel that there is not much difference in function and manufacturing materials, only the appearance is different, but Yongan’s is relatively cheaper, and the scale of the factory is large. You can also see other products of the company, so the head office decided to use Yongan. At that time, I went directly to Yongan to negotiate, but they signed a five-year long-term cooperation agreement with you, and all the goods for export are represented by your company. I came to you as a last resort. If the provisions on the goods in the contract have not changed much, you might as well try to contact another company. The later matters are mainly left to the people at the head office. What is the change in the contract? I don't know. I also know that it is inconvenient for you to disclose this matter to me. If you think my method works, I will try to contact you first. If it doesn't work, you should hurry back and talk to me. Yong'an, hurry up."
"Mr. Zhao is indeed a thoughtful person. If he returns to the head office in Australia in time, he will definitely accomplish a lot. Don't forget us Tang Yang. Then please contact Mr. Zhao for help now."
"To be honest, I don't dare to contact you any more after this time. I'm scared, really scared. But let me contact you now."
During Mr. Zhao's call, Gu Shangwei politely left the office and waited in the living room outside.
Xiao Xu walked around there with a pale face. Although he was the main window in charge of this case, in fact, he was doing chores from the beginning to the end, and this time such a big incident happened.He followed Mr. Gu to coordinate, and Mr. Gu was the one who came forward. He had to worry about whether he would have to start looking for a job again in two days.
So as soon as Gu Shangwei came out, he saw Xiao Xu rushing over to ask this and that, while his private driver was sitting on the sofa leisurely making Kung Fu tea.
In less than 5 minutes, Mr. Zhao came out and handed him a business card.
"When I consulted Yongan two days ago about the situation of the goods, I had a premonition that this situation would happen. I had already discussed this issue with their boss Luo Jiaxiong yesterday, and they said they could talk to you. Now you go directly to their factory to find Boss Luo looks at the goods."
Gu Shangwei looked at the location on the business card in a neighboring city. It would take at least an hour and a half to drive there. Then he checked the time, and it was already past one o'clock at noon.
"Okay, I'll go there right now, I really need Mr. Zhao to worry about it, and you will be the biggest contributor after it's done."
"Hurry up and deal with this matter, I snickered." Mr. Zhao, who was about to issue an order to evict the guests, stopped when he saw Xu Gu making tea, walked over and sat down in front of Xu Gu.
"You can do this too? Judging by your gestures, you are quite professional."
"I can't help it. The former chief liked it, so I learned a little bit. Try it?" After washing the teacup again, and brewing another pot, the tea poured out is exactly four cups, full but not overflowing.
Mr. Zhao took a cup and drank it first.
"The tea leaves are placed just right, the water is boiling enough, and the brewing time is just right. Not bad, come up when you have time, let's make tea." Mr. Zhao rarely smiled.
Xu Gu smiled and motioned Gu Shangwei and Xiao Xu to sit down and drink too.
Looking at the thumb-sized teacup filled with iron-red but clear liquid, Gu Shangwei didn't know what to do.He has always only drank coffee and English black tea, and has never drank tea in such a small cup.
"Kungfu tea is usually poured out after brewing a pot, and the tea will not stay in the pot for too long, so if there is too much tea in the cup, you can pour some out and drink it. And there will inevitably be some small tea at the bottom of the cup slag, so you don’t have to drink to the bottom like drinking wine, and the tea at the bottom can be poured out.”
With that said, Xu Gu steadily picked up the cup of tea in front of Gu Shangwei, tilted it slightly, poured some tea on the coffee table dedicated to Kung Fu tea, and then raised his hands in front of him. He was a little surprised by the thoughtful service and was stunned for a while. over there.
"Drink, these are Pu-erh teas. Drinking this kind of tea is very popular recently. It is good for the stomach and helps digestion. It is best to drink it after meals. Nowadays, big people like this kind of tea. The old people who pay more attention to this kind of tea take this kind of tea. Those who worship Avalokitesvara are good things." Waiting for Xu Gu to brew the second cup of tea, Mr. Zhao hurriedly urged them to drink it.
Gu Shangwei could only reach out to take the teacup. The small teacup was exchanged between the twenty fingers of the two men. It wasn't just the temperature of the tea that made him feel hot.
Seeing that he had taken the teacup, Xu Gu picked up his own cup and drank until there was only the last tea mixed with tea dregs left, and then poured the tea on the coffee table.
Gu Shangwei also imitated him and slowly sucked the tea in the small cup into his mouth, and gently slid it down his throat.A little sweet, a clear sweetness, completely different from the sweetness of English black tea with milk, and also has a unique fresh fragrance of tea itself.
Xiao Xu also drank the tea like them.
After three rounds of tea, they left.
Let Xiao Xu go back to the company first, and then give Xu Gu the address.When Xu Gu spread out the map to study the route, he called Xiao Su, briefly explained the situation, and asked Xiao Su to check the information of the company called Changji by the way.
Before the car started on the road, Xu Gu asked him if he wanted to find a place to eat first, and he said no.After a while, Xu Gu reminded him that there was something to eat in the dark cabinet behind the front seat. He opened it and saw no less than ten digestive biscuits, a whole box of 24 boxes of long-lasting milk, some sausages, soybeans in tomato sauce Things like canned food that can be eaten immediately.
He slowly opened a digestive biscuit, and after eating two pieces, he realized that Xu Gu was looking at him in the rearview mirror.After being stunned for a while, he suddenly realized that the other party is also a human being who needs to eat. Did asking him if he wanted to eat just now meant that he was also hungry and wanted to sit down to eat?Thinking of this, he asked a little guilty: "Are you hungry? Do you want to get out of the car and have something to eat?"
"Me?" Xu Gu smiled, "I just ate two bowls of ramen downstairs."
Hearing this unexpected answer, his hands paused, and a feeling of abandonment that he had never experienced before slowly spread.
Watching the man from the rearview mirror uncomfortably changed his sitting position a few times, continued to eat dry digestive biscuits without saying a word, and opened a box of milk to drink when he was about to choke, the corners of Xu Gu's mouth could not help but slightly Bend upward.Recently, his face has become more and more free-spirited.
