Zhang Tianhao was sitting in the office, drinking tea comfortably, with his legs crossed on the table and reading the newspaper on it.
Although it was just tidbits or Japanese propaganda, Zhang Tianhao's heart was never there. After all, he had already posted several requests to meet.
He even made two marks, but so far, Lao Hu has not appeared. This gave him a premonition that something must have happened to Lao Hu.
As for what happened, he didn't know. He was probably caught by the spies.
"Jingle Bell!"
Just then, the phone on his desk rang, directly interrupting his meditation.
Picking up the phone, Zhang Tianhao answered it.
"Hello, hello, I'm Qin Yuwen, who are you looking for?"
"It turns out to be Mr. Qin. It's like this. Can you pay for the two boxes of wine you took last night? We are also a small business. If it is inconvenient for you, we can go to your work to collect it. What do you think?"
As soon as Zhang Tianhao heard Qian Jun's words, his heart skipped a beat. Qian Jun knew that he was going to Tianjin today, but now he called him. He obviously had something important to do.
But his tone immediately became dissatisfied: "Are you in such a hurry? It's just two boxes of wine. Really, come here. I'll wait for you at the door."
"Really, isn't it just over twenty yuan? Is there any need to chase after the account? I won't buy it from your house next time."
"Sorry, Mr. Qin, we are also a small business. I will have someone pick it up at your door in five minutes. I'm disturbing you."
After Qian Jun finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.
As Zhang Tianhao sat there, he felt upset for a while. After all, if it wasn't something important, Qian Jun wouldn't tell him.
"Did Chen Shijie from the south do something wrong?"
But after thinking about it, I felt that my worries were unnecessary. After all, Chen Shijie and the others were not in the city, but in a small village more than ten miles outside the city. Although it was relatively close to the city, it was also a relatively remote place.
After taking a sip of tea, Zhang Tianhao put down the newspaper and walked towards the door.
After leaving the gate, Zhang Tianhao stood directly at the gate and waited. About two minutes later, he saw a rickshaw running from the west.
When they arrived in front of him, they stopped, and Qian Jun also got out of the car, wearing a melon-skin hat, looking exactly like a small landowner.
"Mr. Qin, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!"
"How much?"
"I'm bothering you this time, just give me twenty-five yuan!"
Qian Jun nodded and bowed, even with a somewhat embarrassed smile on his face.
Zhang Tianhao took out the money from his pocket, counted it, handed it over, and asked in a low voice: "What happened?"
"The Matsumoto regiment outside the city took a train overnight to Peiping."
"Just in time, thank you Mr. Qin, thank you Mr. Qin!" After taking the money, Qian Jun continued to accompany the gift, then got into a rickshaw and left.
But Zhang Tianhao was a little dissatisfied and cursed.
"What the hell, two boxes of wine, it's not a big deal. Will you die if you wait a little longer?"
"Haha, are you being asked for money?"
At this time, Erich saw Zhang Tianhao's unhappy face and asked casually.
"I drank two boxes of wine last night, and I came here to ask for money this morning. I was so angry. I lost my good mood early in the morning." Zhang Tianhao couldn't help mumbling a few words.
"I'm not going to buy anything from this family in the future. No matter how careful I am, it's not a big deal. I have to come in the morning to ask for money and come in the evening to ask for it."
When Eric heard this, he also laughed. It was not that he cared about the money, but that he was in a bad mood.
"Understood, everyone understands."
Zhang Tianhao, who returned to the office, seemed to be in a much better mood just like before. He hummed a ditty directly in the office. It was a German folk song that he also heard from Carla. When he hummed it, he also had a cheerful feeling.
Feel.
After a while, I saw the office door being pushed open from the outside, and I saw Kara walking in with a smile on her face.
"Is Mr. Qin in a good mood?"
"It turns out to be Miss Carla. Thank you for helping me tidy up the room last night. I haven't thanked you properly yet! Please sit down!"
"You're welcome. I also saw that the smell of alcohol in your room was too strong and was affecting my sleep, so I helped you clean it up. We are neighbors!"
Kara also said something very polite.
"No matter what, I still want to thank you." Zhang Tianhao said while pouring him tea.
"When I went back to Shanghai last time, I brought you a piece of clothing. I have been hesitating whether to give it to you or not. I was afraid that you wouldn't accept it. I brought it to you when I got home in the morning to express my gratitude and ask you.
Take it!"
As he spoke, he took out a small box from the drawer and pushed it over.
"This is a gift for me. Isn't it too late?"
Kara also looked at the somewhat unnatural Zhang Tianhao with some amusement. After all, it was completely different from Zhang Tianhao's usual expression.
"It's not too late to give a good gift. I've been hesitating, so I brought it out today. I hope you can accept my little gift."
And Kara took the small box and opened it, her eyes lit up.
"It's actually a diamond-encrusted brooch. It's so sparkly."
There are five tiny diamonds on the black brooch, like crystals, so charming.
She picked it up and looked at it, then put it back and pushed it in front of Zhang Tianhao. She shook her head and said, "It's too expensive."
"Cara, do you think I can wear this brooch?"
"No, you can give it to your girlfriend!"
"We'll talk about it after I have a girlfriend, but I don't know when I will have one yet. Kara, please put it on and take a look. I think it should be very beautiful."
"No, no, no."
"You won't let me take it back. It will be too embarrassing for me. Fred and the others won't know how to laugh at me by then. They won't be able to give away even a small brooch. I will really lose my face."
"ah!"
Kara looked at Zhang Tianhao, then looked at the brooch on the table, knowing that this thing was very expensive.
"How about I give you money?"
"No, you're looking down on me. At least my family used to be rich. This money is nothing. Just take it. If you don't want it, please throw it away for me. I don't want to see it.
I can’t help but see the expressions on Fred’s and the others’ faces as they laughed at me.” Zhang Tianhao also had an unhappy look on his face, which was almost written on his face.
"Okay, I'll keep it for you first, but when you have a girlfriend in the future, you can give it to your girlfriend!"
"Thank you so much!"
Zhang Tianhao immediately thanked her and then looked at Kara.
"By the way, what's the matter?"
'Get ready, we are leaving soon. You may have to eat lunch on the train today.'
"It's okay, it doesn't matter if I don't eat. I don't have much, just a briefcase and a set of clothes." Zhang Tianhao looked at the small box he prepared. It was not big, plus a briefcase.
"Okay, in half an hour, you'll be waiting for Mr. William downstairs. I'll leave first!" Kara picked up the gift box with a smile and left Zhang Tianhao's office.
Zhang Tianhao nodded after hearing this. Then he sat there without moving.
