Mo Chen sent Shen Zhiluo into the passenger seat in a gentlemanly manner, with affection in his eyes.
If you look closely, you will find that his face is slightly gloomy, but he is restrained in front of Shen Zhiluo, but the woman does not seem to notice.
Shen Zhiluo got into the passenger seat, put on his seat belt, slowly curled his lips, and blinked his eyes as if sincerely: "I won the bid today, what are you going to take me to eat to celebrate, Mr. Mo?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the originally quiet atmosphere became even more stagnant.
Mo Chen smiled, regretfully, and pinched the tip of Shen Zhiluo's nose slightly: "Su's bidding amount exceeded KY Group's budget, and their company won the bid."
He stared leisurely into Shen Zhiluo's eyes, his eyes were cold and well hidden.
Shen Zhiluo blinked as if he couldn't believe it. He quickly took out his phone and started searching for news, and found that the winning company was indeed Su's.
"Sorry." Shen Zhiluo felt a little embarrassed and smiled, "I was too busy today and didn't pay attention to the news."
Mo Chen raised his eyebrows, as if he believed Shen Zhiluo's words. He held the steering wheel firmly and stepped on the accelerator. His tone was still casual: "After finishing this meal with me, I will forgive you."
There seemed to be a hidden meaning, but Shen Zhiluo didn't seem to hear it, and smiled and agreed: "Okay."
As soon as today's winning bid results were announced, it was already in the news. The winning company was Su's. This was a slap in Mo Chen's face.
Because before, he had sworn in front of Shen Zhiluo that he was sure of victory.
Of course Shen Zhiluo watched the news, but there was still an acting process to go through in front of Mo Chen.
The whole journey was silent, and Mo Chen quickly drove to the restaurant. It was a century-old Huaiyang cuisine. The taste was light, which suited his current unhappy mood. It was light and he had no intention of eating anything else.
The restaurant is antique, the whole building is made of wooden pavilions, and a big plaque on the door of the first floor reads "Huai Bamboo House". The most famous Huaiyang cuisine in Qiang City, the chef is excellent, but the secret recipe is never leaked. His taste is unique.
There was a long queue outside. Mo Chen took Shen Zhiluo's hand and entered the pavilion grandly. When the waiter and manager saw the person coming, he didn't stop him. Instead, he led the person more respectfully to the private room by the window on the third floor.
It has a good view, a large space, and is far away from the noise downstairs. It should be regarded as the best private room.
"What do you want to eat?" Mo Chen pinched Shen Zhiluo's face as if in retaliation. Her face was fair and delicate, felt good and elastic.
Shen Zhiluo avoided it without leaving a trace, and told the waiter the name of the dish: "Long fish in soft pocket, lion's head with crab meat, boiled dried shreds, white robe shrimp, Pingqiao tofu."
These are some famous Huaiyang dishes.
She named five dishes at once, as if she was really going to enjoy a meal. Mo Cheng smiled half-heartedly and added another soup.
The two of them knew tacitly that this meal was not a simple one, but they both made a tacit understanding without specifying it.
Shen Zhiluo couldn't help but sigh at Mo Chen's acting skills. Her face would freeze from smiling like this for a whole day.
At this time, someone called Mo Chen. Mo Chen seemed to hesitate for a while before answering the call in front of Shen Zhiluo.
"That's right, we are now preparing to acquire the acquisition information of Anxin Food Company and will send it to me tomorrow." Mo Chen's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and he did not shy away from it.
I don't know what was said on the other end, but his voice became a little sharp: "We didn't win the bid today. The land has been taken away by the Su family. We must acquire Anxin Food Company. This company is just poorly managed and made a lot of profits after acquiring it at a low price. "
The other end hurriedly responded as if in panic, and Mo Chen's cold expression softened slightly.
When I hung up the phone, the dishes had already been served.
Shen Zhiluo concentrated on picking up the food, seemingly not paying attention to Mo Chen's call.
But it has to be said that Mo Chen's methods are getting increasingly inferior.
Revealing company secrets in front of her so openly did not take her IQ seriously.
Shen Zhiluo smiled, but that was fine.
Mo Chen took his time and even added some vegetables to Shen Zhiluo's bowl, his eyes were very gentle and affectionate.
Yesterday's plot was the first time that Shen Zhiluo knew the secret of KY Group. She told Su in such a hurry, which proved that Shen Zhiluo had no IQ at all.
It was his misunderstanding before. It seems that Shen Zhiluo is just a little clever, so don't take it to heart.
That phone call added a bit of weirdness to the atmosphere in the room. The two of them had different thoughts, but it didn't stop them from pretending to be a couple who were in an ambiguous period but already in love.
Because Shen Zhiluo clearly saw that the moment she raised her head, the treetops on the opposite side shook, and there was a flash of light that quickly disappeared, but it did not prevent her from knowing that there was someone hiding there.
She smiled and took the dish from Mo Chen: "Thank you, it's so delicious."
"Delicious? Come again next time." Mo Chen smiled.
next time?
I don’t know if there will be a next time.
The smile on Shen Zhiluo's lips deepened: "Okay."
…
Not long after returning home, an unfamiliar phone number called him one after another. Shen Zhiluo hung up the phone several times, but still persisted.
Shen Zhiluo frowned and finally answered.
If he can call you back seven or eight times, he shouldn't be a liar.
"Excuse me, are you... Shen Zhiluo?" the other end asked tentatively.
Shen Zhiluo's eyes were light: "I am."
"Great!" The other end was extremely happy and choked up, "Zhiluo, I am Jiang Xia's mother. I know you are Jiang Xia's good friend. Do you know where she has been these days?"
"She told me to travel before, but I have called her continuously and haven't gotten through for many days!" The other end suddenly burst into tears. "If I don't get any more news, I will call the police!"
In the past, Shen Zhiluo often went to Jiang Xia's house to play. This voice sounded familiar, and it was undoubtedly Aunt Jiang.
No answer for many days?
But she was still talking to Jiang Xia two days ago.
Shen Zhiluo's voice was calm: "Aunt Jiang, don't worry. I talked to Jiang Xia on the phone two days ago. She said she was traveling in Province A."
"Province A?" The other end seemed to faint in one breath, "Province A has no scenic spots, no tourists, nothing interesting at all! It's so good, why would you want to travel there!"
Shen Zhiluo was silent. What Aunt Jiang said was true, but because she had not seen her child anxious for a long time, she was too excited and anxious.
The elderly are in poor health and always have many worries.
"Forget it about traveling there." Aunt Jiang sighed, "I haven't sent a message for so long. Do you know how worried your parents are? I'm so afraid that she will be in danger..."
Shen Zhiluo was stunned, and a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred to him. Jiang Xia had never sent a message to Moments or made a video call to her in such a long time.
Jiang Xia has a carefree personality, so it is indeed suspicious that there has been no news for so long.
While the call was still going on, Shen Zhiluo clicked on Jiang Xia's circle of friends and found that her updates were stuck before she went to Jiangcheng. She didn't even have any travel photos for so long.
She squinted her eyes, thinking that in so many days, Jiang Xia had not made a video call using WeChat, and she had to call several people before she was connected...
