Huo Jinxi probably just won a prize. He leaned back in his seat and smiled lightly when he heard this, "It was President Jin who accepted the offer."
"What the hell." Mr. Jin said, "My skills are inferior to those of others, so I'm willing to be inferior!"
While speaking, Huo Jinxi turned his head slightly and saw Ye Jinfan walking slowly towards him.
"It's so lively." Ye Jinfan looked at the people at the card table and said with a smile, "This is really a rare scene. Has Mr. Huo actually become a regular visitor here?"
Huo Jinxi raised his eyes to look at him and replied: "It's a fun game, so naturally everyone wants to participate more."
"That's right." Ye Jinfan pulled up a chair and sat down, smiling, "That's why I came uninvited."
"You kid!" Mr. Jin glanced at him, "I usually call you here, but you put on airs for me and show up for being late and missing appointments. Today I didn't call you, but you showed up on your own initiative!"
Ye Jinfan smiled and replied: "Work when you work, and have fun when you play. I don't have any other good qualities, it's self-discipline. It's not like you, Mr. Jin, don't know that."
"Just brag!" Mr. Jin seemed to be in a good mood. After stabbing him, he said nothing. He turned to look at Huo Jinxi and said, "Mr. Huo, talk about the South China Sea project again? We big bosses
Ah, I have never been exposed to such a big project and those development plans, I am really excited just to hear about them.”
Huo Jinxi listened and said: "Mr. Jin, you are really interested. Just find a time to sit in the conference room and talk slowly some other time. What details can be discussed here?"
Mr. Jin said: "We have not participated openly in this matter. We went into the conference room to talk about it. Isn't that unfair?"
Huo Jinxi said: "Why bother what outsiders think? Since I recognize the identities of a few of them, others naturally don't dare to say anything more."
"Okay, okay!" Mr. Jin laughed instantly and said, "Mr. Huo is indeed a person who does great things. He is really admirable!"
Ye Jinfan sat next to him, quietly listening to the conversation of several people, and said with a smile: "It's rare for a busy man like Mr. Huo to have time to go out and play, but he is also willing to personally greet Mr. Jin, Mr. Zhang, Mr. Wu, and allow me to be a villain.
I’m worried, could it be that the project development progress is not as good as expected?”
As soon as he said this, Mr. Jin and others couldn't help but look at him sideways.
Huo Jinxi sorted out the cards in his hand. Hearing this, he just replied without raising his head: "As a direct participant in the project, it is really interesting for Mr. Ye to ask such a question. You don't know how the project is progressing.
?"
"In the final analysis, this is Huo's main project. Although we have investment participation, Huo still has the final say." Ye Jinfan said, "So, if we can get Mr. Huo's information sharing in time, we can feel more at ease."
"
Huo Jinxi glanced at him again and said: "In other words, Mr. Ye is not very relieved now? In that case, why did he choose this project in the first place? No one's money comes from the strong wind. Taking such a risk is a waste of money.
Isn’t other people’s money considered money?”
"Mr. Huo, what are you talking about?" Ye Jinfan said, "I chose Huo's because I have confidence in Huo's. I believe that Mr. Jin, Mr. Zhang, and Mr. Wu also participated in this investment because of their confidence in Huo's."
.I believe Mr. Huo will not let us down."
Huo Jinxi then smiled lightly and said nothing more.
This thoughtful card game lasted until evening. Huo Jinxi had other entertainment and left quickly.
Ye Jinfan, on the other hand, kept playing with Mr. Jin and others until early in the morning, and then finally left.
After the show, Mr. Jin and others all left, leaving only Ye Jinfan, who was still sitting in the private room smoking slowly.
Until the manager who went to see Mr. Jin and others off turned around, walked to him, and shouted in a low voice: "Mr. Ye."
Ye Jinfan just lowered his eyes and smoked a cigarette, and said calmly: "How many days have Huo Jinxi and Mr. Jin been playing together?"
"Three or four times," the manager replied, "Mr. Huo seems to win money every time, but Mr. Jin and the others are still very happy."
Ye Jinfan heard this and sneered: "Weren't they very unhappy when they first met? How did they get to play together?"
"Yes, when we first met, Mr. Jin took the initiative to greet Mr. Huo, but Mr. Huo ignored him. But the second time, it was Mr. Huo who took the initiative to say hello. Although he still looked a little cold, he exchanged pleasantries with Mr. Jin.
In other words, Mr. Jin was quite happy. Then one time, Mr. Huo didn’t have a match, so Mr. Jin happened to meet him when he came over, so he invited Mr. Huo to play with him, and Mr. Huo agreed.”
Ye Jinfan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
I see.
Judging from Huo Jinxi's thoughts and strategies, he probably did it on purpose the first time they met.
Knowing clearly that Mr. Jin and others were interested in clinging to friendship, he acted in a condescending manner and angered Mr. Jin.
Next time, he will take the initiative to say hello. Such a gap will undoubtedly have a certain psychological impact on Mr. Jin and others——
Considering the attitude of Mr. Jin and others towards Huo Jinxi, such an impact would actually be more conducive for Huo Jinxi to integrate into their circle.
Therefore, from the first time Huo Jinxi appeared in this club, it was not an accidental encounter, but a long-planned meeting——
Huo Jinxi came here just for him.
No matter Jiang Qi, Mr. Jin and others, Huo Jinxi used them all to deal with him.
Unfortunately, he noticed it.
Ye Jinfan stubbed out the cigarette butts in his hand, dropped a tip, got up and left.
By the time his car drove out of the club, it was almost three o'clock in the morning.
Ye Jinfan closed his eyes and leaned on the back seat to take a nap. Seeing his frown, the driver did not disturb him and drove the car directly to the Ye family villa.
It wasn't until the car stopped at the villa garage that the driver turned around and shouted softly: "Mr. Ye, we're home. Go up and have a rest."
Ye Jinfan seemed to have really fallen asleep. Hearing his voice, his body trembled slightly, and then he slowly opened his eyes and woke up.
Seeing a familiar place, he subconsciously opened the door and got out of the car, but when he stepped on the ground with one foot, he suddenly remembered something and his movements froze.
Yes, he had just woken up, and his mind was still a little confused. Now that he was awake, he remembered that there was no one waiting for him in this room.
Even if he entered the house and went upstairs, he would still be alone.
Ye Jinfan suddenly closed the car door again, "Go to the nursing home."
The driver didn't dare to say anything, so he quickly restarted the car and drove to the nursing home.
It was peaceful in the nursing home late at night, and no noise could be heard. Ye Jinfan's car stopped in front of the building where Ye Xi lived, and turned off the lights, but no one got out of the car.
Ye Jinfan just leaned against the car window and looked quietly at the dark window on the second floor.
At this time, was she in a deep sleep, or hiding in bed and crying?
He had no way of knowing.
Because she has isolated him from her world.
He had asked her at noon that it didn't matter whether she had him or not in this life. If it had been in the past, he would have gotten her answer the next moment. But now, more than ten hours have passed, and she has not responded at all.
.
Obviously nothing substantial happened, but the relationship between them happened to be like this.
He didn't even know where they would go in the future if they continued like this.
Is it only when he gives up everything and takes her away from Tongcheng and away from all this complexity that she will be willing to look back again?
The moment this thought flashed through his mind, Ye Jinfan was startled.
He didn't know why this idea suddenly occurred to him. This idea had never occurred to him before and was absolutely ridiculous to him.
But soon, he remembered.
He remembered that Ye Xi once held his hand and told him with tears, get out of here.
But how could he leave?
He has been working hard all his life, and the goals he has pursued throughout his life are all in Tongcheng. How could he give up everything and leave just for her?
Impossible, never possible...
Ye Jinfan was frozen for a moment, then suddenly withdrew his gaze and closed the car window.
"Go to the hotel." He told the driver.
Soon, the car drove out of the nursing home quietly, as if it had never been there.
But there was still a person, through a window, quietly listening to his arrival and then his departure, still motionless and not making a sound.
She thought that after all, she couldn't wait for him anymore...
