After getting up early, Tang Yili sent a text message asking Xun Lang if he could have dinner together before watching the show.
At that time, Xun Lang was on his way to the airport. Secretary Chen notified him last night that Mr. Ji would fly back to Nanshi the next morning.
Xun Lang drove the team's car to see Ji Nanyun off.
The airport expressway was congested all the way over the weekend. When we arrived at the airport, Ji Nanyun's assistant had already greeted him.
"Mr. Xiaoji, you are here."
The assistant looked overjoyed and felt relieved - this young man is probably the only one who dares to make Mr. Ji wait these days.
Xun Lang followed his assistant and walked through the VIP passage and directly into the terminal. On the way, he took the time to reply to Tang Yili.
[You choose a restaurant, send me the time and address, and I will go directly]
Tang Yili replied instantly: [Okay.]
Sometimes, emotions can be conveyed through words, and Xun Lang seemed to have seen the successful smile on Tang Yili's little face.
Xun Lang unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, and at the same time, he put away his cell phone.
He raised his head and met Ji Nanyun's gaze.
The boss sits in the middle of the sofa and enjoys a VIP room to himself. Behind him is the high dome and the large glass curtain wall, so he can just watch the planes taking off and landing.
Xun Lang came over and said, "Dad, I'm late."
Ji Nanyun also caught the flash of his son's smiling face just now, and the previous irritability slowly dissipated.
He deliberately kept a straight face and said, "You know you're late, so sit down."
Xun Lang sat down on the single sofa opposite. The father and son had nothing to say, and it was another meeting where they looked at each other.
Secretary Chen stood aside, almost rubbing his hands in a hurry, and at the same time wailing in his heart: Resolving embarrassment is really not my strong point!
"Um..." Secretary Chen cleared his throat, searched his guts, and finally thought of the topic.
"Mr. Xiao Ji, we have concluded the business deal with Fengtang Group. The total amount is 460 million, which is enough for them to survive this round of financing crisis."
Xun Lang raised his eyes and stared at Secretary Chen.
Secretary Chen added: "Don't worry, we can add more if necessary later..."
"Whether we want to add more or not depends on the board of directors' evaluation." Ji Nanyun cut off Secretary Chen with just one sentence, scaring him into silence and not daring to say anything.
Ji Nanyun continued in a cold voice: "The only girl in the Tang family is good-looking, but other than that, she really has no merits. As for Tang Feng, she is resourceful but lacks courage. She is timid in doing business. She is really not successful.
People who are in big trouble, I think the Fengtang Group, which is the size it is today, has come to an end."
"If you want to grow bigger, you will definitely need foreign aid. You go back and tell the father and daughter that they can rely on our Ji family. The Ji family is also willing to help them, but one thing is that they must stick to their own rules and don't use the Ji family's brand name to go out and recruit others.
Bees attract butterflies..."
Xun Lang remained silent. He clasped his hands and leaned forward to put them on his knees.
Secretary Chen gave the boss a fierce wink. Ji Nanyun shut up and went to see his son.
After a long while, Xun Lang looked at Ji Nanyun and said with a half-smile.
"I didn't expect you to find out everything about the Tang family so quickly."
Ji Nanyun became angry immediately.
"What's your attitude?! I'm checking the Tang family, isn't it just for you?!"
On the day of the meal, when Secretary Chen was reporting, when Xun Lang heard about Fengtang Group, he only hesitated for a moment before Ji Nanyun noticed it.
Who is Ji Nanyun? He dominates shopping malls, kills decisively, and never rubs a grain of salt in his eyes. He noticed his son's little abnormality, and immediately asked people to retrieve all the information about the Tang family when he returned home.
Sure enough, Tang Feng had a very beautiful daughter.
As the saying goes, no one knows his son better than his father.
Ji Nanyun felt at that time that he had insight into his son's secret, and that girl was indeed worthy of Xun Lang, who had always been emotionally blank.
He thought that this father was very considerate. He had done everything that his son didn't want to say, and the Tang family didn't notice it at all. How dare this brat not be happy about it.
At whom?!
Ji Nanyun sat up straight and stared at Xun Lang.
Xun Lang also looked at Ji Nanyun with warmth and indifference, and the father and son's eyes locked for N rounds.
Xun Lang calmed down his emotions and spoke word by word with restraint in his alienation.
"I admit that I sympathize with Tang Yili and the Tang family's plight, and I'm very grateful that you can help them. However, you should also know what I hate most since I was a child."
"If you think that by being kind to the Tang family, you can interfere in my life arbitrarily, then I would rather you not help the Tang family.
Xun Lang stood up.
Ji Nanyun turned pale with anger and pointed at Xun Lang: "What do you mean, please explain to me clearly."
"Tang Yili and I are not the relationship you thought they were. Your intelligence personnel should stop conducting investigations and harassing the Tang family."
"Give me some room for everyone."
After saying this last sentence, Xun Lang strode out of the VIP room, with the sound of shattering glass and china coming from behind him.
Returning to the departure lounge, the space suddenly opened up. Passengers who had traveled far away were rushing in all directions, and flight information was played in bilingual broadcasts in their ears.
There is a sense of drifting in the air.
Xun Lang slowed down and walked through the crowd. Feeling a little bored for a moment, he walked aimlessly to the entrance of the parking lot when he heard the sound of heavy footsteps behind him.
He turned around and saw Secretary Chen catching up, panting.
Secretary Chen, who was nearly fifty years old, waited for a long time before speaking his first words.
"It's all my fault. If you don't mention Fontang Group, you and your son won't be able to say goodbye properly."
"Uncle Chen, don't blame yourself, it's not your fault." He smiled helplessly, "My dad still behaves this way after so many years."
Secretary Chen smiled understandingly and patted Xun Lang on the shoulder.
"I'm going to stay in Bei City for a few more days. Have you driven? Take me back to the city."
There is no one around Ji Nanyun who is not a very important figure. Secretary Chen, when traveling, does not need to be surrounded by people, and never needs a ride.
I just have something to say.
Xun Lang drove the classic car, and Secretary Chen sat in the passenger seat.
The air conditioner in the car didn't cool the air very well, so I had to roll down the window a crack. The wind on the highway was noisy, whistling, and dust was flying around in the narrow space.
Secretary Chen was a little surprised by such conditions.
In an instant, he smiled knowingly.
"Miss Tang, does she know that you are Mr. Ji's son?"
Xun Lang drove the car without squinting.
"We're not familiar with each other. It's not the kind of relationship you think."
"I understand, I understand." Secretary Chen added, "I understand, you just don't want Miss Tang to be harassed because of you."
"Based on what you know about my father, Uncle Chen, is what he did to the people around me just harassment?"
Xun Lang glanced at Secretary Chen with a very faint gaze.
Just this glance made the person who had been around shopping malls for half his life shudder.
Secretary Chen said weakly: "What happened back then... was an accident."
