First Xu Qing toasted, and then Xu Hongtian. Ye Qian was too embarrassed to refuse, so he had to accept everyone who came. Besides, Ye Qian was a martial arts master, and his true energy circulated automatically in his body. If he wanted to get drunk, it would be almost impossible. It's impossible. This is why you often see those knights in martial arts movies eating big chunks of meat and drinking from big bowls. They weigh a few kilograms at a time, but they don't get drunk anymore.
When you become a martial arts practitioner, not only will your body become stronger and stronger, but you will also become more attractive. It is a kind of charm that exudes from the inside out. Understanding cannot be expressed in words.
After finishing the five dishes and three rounds of wine, Xu Hongtian turned to look at Ye Qian and said, "Mr. Ye, to tell the truth, thank you very much. I founded the Xu Group from scratch, but these days, Over the years, my health has been getting worse day by day. Maybe it’s because I’m getting older and less courageous, which has caused me to miss a lot of opportunities, which has also led to the Xu Group’s current predicament. In recent years, If Qingqing hadn't worked hard to open up foreign markets, I'm afraid Xu Group would have gone bankrupt long ago. When I received the news that Haotian Group was going to acquire Xu Group, I felt really anxious. I didn't want to The hard-earned foundation has been ruined. If Mr. Ye hadn't given up the acquisition, I really don't know what would have happened. In a word, thank you Mr. Ye."
Xu Hongtian said these words very sincerely, and Ye Qian could feel it. He smiled slightly and said, "Cooperation is a win-win situation. Mr. Xu, there is no need to be polite." After a pause, Ye Qian said Then he continued: "I want to know if Mr. Xu betrothed Miss Xu to Qin Richao for this reason. He wanted to use Qin Richao's power in Yanjing City to help the Xu Group get out of this predicament, right?"
After a slight pause, Xu Hongtian took a deep breath, nodded, and said: "I know it's a bit selfish to do this, and I don't care about Qingqing's feelings. However, there is no other way. Qin Richao and I My father is a family friend, and I watched Qin Richao grow up, so I only have this option, but I think Qin Richao will treat Qingqing sincerely and will not wrong her."
"I won't comment on Qin Richao's character, lest Mr. Xu think I'm speaking ill of others behind their backs." Ye Qian said, "However, I think marriage and relationship matters cannot be used. For those who do business, marriage and relationships are very simple things. If interests are mixed in, it will change the flavor. What I said may not be pleasant to listen to. I hope Mr. Xu doesn't mind."
"No, no, Mr. Ye is right." Xu Hongtian said.
"Now that Haotian Group has given up its plan to acquire the Xu Group, and has signed a cooperation agreement with the Xu Group, the Xu Group is out of trouble. I hope Mr. Xu can reconsider this matter carefully. Don't be too impulsive about this matter." Ye Qian said, "Actually, this is your private matter, I shouldn't say too much."
"Grandpa, although I don't hate Qin Richao, I don't have that heart-warming feeling at all." Xu Qing said, "Besides, I only focus on the company now and don't want to think too much about other things. Grandpa, we Break off the engagement."
"Breaking off the engagement is a big or small matter. Qin Richao has a lot of power in Yanjing City. If he breaks off the engagement rashly, he will feel that he has lost his face. I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it." Xu Hongtian said, "Qingqing,
I understand what you mean. I will think about it carefully and see how to tell him so that there will be no stalemate."
The other party was Qin Richao, a person with great power in China. Xu Hongtian did not dare to offend him by breaking off the engagement rashly, which would make Qin Richao lose face. The consequences might be serious, although the Xu Group has now
Cooperate with the Haotian Group, but if Qin Richao wants to deal with the Xu Group, I am afraid that the Xu Group will also feel uncomfortable. Xu Hongtian has to consider this matter carefully and does not dare to be careless.
After a pause, Xu Hongtian turned to look at Ye Qian and asked, "I wonder if Mr. Ye is married."
Ye Qian was stunned for a moment and glanced at Xu Hongtian in astonishment. His eyes glanced over Xu Qing's body. The latter lowered her head and had a slight blush on her face. Ye Qian couldn't help but take a breath of air. He understood Xu Hongtian's intention.
It made sense. Hu Ke turned to look at Ye Qian, glared at him fiercely, and pinched his waist hard. Ye Qian held back the pain and smiled bitterly at Hu Ke, and then laughed.
He smiled, turned to look at Xu Hongtian and said, "I have been married a long time ago and already have children."
Hu Ke told Xu Qing about Ye Qian, so Xu Qing was not surprised at all. However, Xu Hongtian was a little surprised. He could tell that Ye Qian and Hu Ke had an ambiguous relationship, but Ye Qian already had a wife.
He has a child, so what does Hu Ke mean? He smiled sarcastically, and Xu Hongtian said: "What a pity, haha."
"Grandpa, what are you talking about? This is a private matter, don't ask." Xu Qing said to smooth things over.
Xu Hongtian was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, "Don't ask, don't ask anymore, haha." Xu Qing's parents passed away when she was very young, and it was Xu Hongtian who raised her single-handedly. He thought about his granddaughter.
How could Xu Hongtian not know this clearly? Although Xu Qing treated Ye Qian like an ordinary person and was still so polite, Xu Hongtian could tell that Xu Qing had some feelings for Ye Qian.
Ye Qian didn't speak anymore, lowered his head, and was eating by himself, looking like he was rejecting others from thousands of miles away. Xu Hongtian didn't want to ask for trouble, so he mostly talked to Hu Ke. After all, they were old acquaintances.
When Hu Ke was young, he often spent the night at Xu Qing's house, but later on the visits became less frequent.
What should be said has been said, and what should not be said has been said. Ye Qian feels that he has said almost everything. As for what Xu Hongtian thinks, that is his business, and he cannot stop him. However, he believes that Xu Qing
He is a smart person and a very measured person, and should be able to handle the relationship with Qin, Richao.
After dinner, Xu Qing pulled Hu Ke into the room together. The two best friends must have a lot of private things to say. Ye Qian couldn't disturb them or urge Hu Ke to leave, but he didn't want to get entangled with Xu Hongtian too much.
I had to go to the garden and make a phone call.
There was still no answer to Huangfu Qingtian's cell phone, which made Ye Qian vaguely feel that something was wrong. However, considering that Huangfu Qingtian was also the director of the National Security Bureau, and was highly valued by the superiors, there shouldn't be anything wrong.
As for the matter, besides, it’s already so late and I can’t figure it out myself. I’d better go to the National Security Bureau early tomorrow morning and have a look.
Then, Ye Qian made a call to Liu Tianchen and Ye Waner, asking them about the results of their investigation and whether they had found out where Hansen and others were. However, it was a pity that neither Liu Tianchen nor Ye Waner received any news. Qian didn't blame him. After all, the matter itself was not that easy. It was obvious that Sen was more shrewd than Koswillerski and the others. How could it be so easy for him to find out where they were? Yes, Ye Qian told them to be more careful and hung up the phone.
He turned around and saw that Hu Ke hadn't come out yet. Ye Qian shook his head helplessly, took out a cigarette and lit it. However, it just so happened that Ye Qian could also take advantage of this time to sort out the recent events. The clearer you understand, the easier it will be to do things in the future.
Xu Hongtian was also very knowledgeable and did not bother Ye Qian. Although he didn't know Ye Qian well, he could tell during the meal that Ye Qian didn't really want to talk to him. He guessed that if it weren't for Xu Qing's relationship, he would just He was afraid that Ye Qianli would ignore him. Now that Haotian Group has signed a cooperation agreement with Xu Group, Xu Hongtian can rest assured. There is no need to get close to Ye Qian and annoy him.
I don’t know how long it took, but Hu Ke and Xu Qing walked out and saw Ye Qian sitting alone in the pavilion in the garden smoking. Hu Ke was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Why are you sitting here alone? "
"You sisters have something to say, and I can't disturb you, so I have to drink the northwest wind here." Ye Qian curled his lips and said.
Hu Ke didn't know what Ye Qian was thinking. He smiled and didn't ask any more questions. He turned to look at Xu Qing and said, "Qingqing, I'm bothering you tonight. It's getting late." , let’s go back first.”
"Yeah." Xu Qing nodded slightly and said, "Come over and sit down if you have time. We sisters haven't seen each other for so many years, but I have a lot to say. If I weren't afraid that Mr. Ye would blame me for taking away your time. , I am not going to let you go back tonight." Then she turned to look at Ye Qian, Xu Qing said: "Mr. Ye, there is no good food today, and the hospitality is not good, I hope Mr. Ye doesn't mind."
Ye Qian smiled lightly and said: "It's already very good. Miss Xu doesn't need to be too polite. From now on, Haotian Group and Xu Group will be one family. You and Ke'er are good sisters. There should be more friends in the future." Just move around." After a pause, Ye Qian turned to say: "Miss Xu is a smart woman. I believe that Miss Xu will understand many things with just a little click, so I won't say anything more. .”
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, knowing exactly what Ye Qian meant. She nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ye, I know what to do."
