Shen Yunqiu placed his document bag on the inside of the restaurant seat against the wall, sat down opposite Yu Zhesen, and loosened his tie.
Yu Zhesen glanced at him and pushed a can of cold beer over: "Why do you look so haggard? Old Shen."
"Our company recently received a big order..." Shen Yunqiu shook his head helplessly as he unscrewed the pull tab of the beer can, "I have stayed up all night to change the plan for two consecutive nights. But it is gratifying that the plan submitted today was passed. You really know how to choose your timing. I wouldn't have agreed to come to this meal a day earlier."
"Hey, I'm good at pinching and calculating." Yu Zhesen smiled, "It turns out that the dark circles under your eyes are from working overtime. I remember you often did this when we lived together before."
Shen Yunqiu spread his hands: "I can't help it, I'm working... By the way, I got promoted a while ago and am now the deputy manager of the copywriting department."
When talking about the progress in his career, Shen Yunqiu's tone became a little proud, and the expression on his face relaxed a little.
Yu Zhesen said a long "Oh" thoughtfully: "No wonder you suddenly started to pay me back. It turns out that I got a promotion and a salary increase. It's not fun to not inform my buddy about such a good thing."
"Isn't it true that I haven't had any time yet?" Shen Yunqiu rolled her eyes at him, "It sounds like I'm going to default on my debt."
Yu Zhesen laughed, and the two of them clinked glasses with beer cans and chatted about trivial matters in their respective lives. During this period, the dishes ordered were served one after another.
From the chat, Yu Zhesen felt that Shen Yunqiu didn't seem to care much about the recent events in Qidao City, and he didn't even care much about D who broke into the TV station to expose the crimes committed by Alan Nadel against the pioneer group.
At first, Yu Zhesen thought that Shen Yunqiu didn't watch the news, so he didn't know that the "terrorist Wei Lanxue" in the news was D, the bassist of the rock band they had met at the Hongyu Bar, but he soon discovered that this was not the case.
Shen Yunqiu knew that Wei Lanxue was Niu'er, the bassist of the RANDOM band. His WeChat friend list still has D's account that Yu Zhesen helped him get.
"I can't say I liked her much... I probably just drank too much at that time." Shen Yunqiu said mockingly, "When public opinion was raging, I didn't speak for her on the Internet."
"You are very rational..." Yu Zhesen looked at him with admiration, "When the public opinion was at its worst, it almost destroyed Allen and the Administration, and the Security Bureau was also affected."
"Because I feel that she and I are completely from two different worlds, even though we live in the same city." Shen Yunqiu took a sip of wine and sighed softly.
Yu Zhesen had not had such an in-depth exchange with Shen Yunqiu for a long time. He could see that Shen Yunqiu still had something to say at this moment, so he watched quietly and waited for him to continue.
Shen Yunqiu quickly went on to say: "Maybe when I was in the bar, I really had some thoughts about her, and I felt that the way she played bass on the stage was very attractive to me, but now I understand that it was all appearances."< /p>
"I only regard her as a rock musician with a good-looking body and an interesting soul. It is too superficial for me to have this idea."
As Shen Yunqiu said this, he scratched his forehead with his hand and suddenly looked at Yu Zhesen solemnly.
"You should know more about her than me, right?"
Yu Zhesen was stunned for a moment by the question. When he came to his senses, he could no longer lie. He nodded and admitted: "Well... I know a little more."
Shen Yunqiu was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled: "I don't care what kind of person she is anymore, the final outcome is settled anyway."
She is a brave resister, Yu Zhesen thought silently in his heart.
However, just like Shen Yunqiu said, Wei Lanxue and he are from two different worlds.
One is an office worker who works hard for his family and his own future, and the other is a warrior who tries to resist the evil that possesses order. The meeting in the bar is just a brief meeting of fate.
At this time, Yu Zhesen's somewhat misty thoughts were interrupted by the sudden ringing of his mobile phone.
He glanced at the contact name dancing on the screen, and the expression on his face changed slightly. It was Wu Xiaoming who took the initiative to call.
"Old Shen, you eat slowly, I'll answer the phone."
Shen Yunqiu waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.
Yu Zhesen walked outside the restaurant and answered the phone: "Manager Wu? You are calling me at this time. What can I do?"
"Why do you sound so alert? Don't worry, I'm certainly not trying to trick you into buying a house." Wu Xiaoming laughed like a bell.
"With your living conditions, you don't really need to spend time on the house selling business, right?" Yu Zhesen complained.
Wu Xiaoming said: "It was originally a cover identity, but I still like the name Manager Wu Yuxi. It sounds more upscale than my real name."
"Tell me what's going on."
Wu Xiaoming cleared his throat and asked: "Did you use armor last night? The boss asked me to ask you, can you disclose the specific situation?"
She was undoubtedly referring to the Dark Night Fire Armor. Yu Zhesen couldn't help but frown: "Can you monitor my armor usage records?"
"This series of models of Dark Night Flowing Fire was customized by the boss from Xingtian Heavy Industry. You don't think that Han Jinghu will really give you a set for free, do you? He is an arms dealer and not a charity."
The implication of Wu Xiaoming's words is very clear - the armor was ordered by Jin Jianshen and others at their expense, so it is reasonable to get feedback on usage data.
Yu Zhesen could not refute this and said to Wu Xiaoming on the phone: "Let's discuss the specific situation in person. It's not convenient on the phone."
"Hmm? Do you want to see me?" The voice on the other end of the phone sounded a little charming.
"I originally wanted to find you today. There is something I want to discuss with you." He paused and added in a low voice: "It has something to do with EX Dexun Technology Group."
"Okay, I'm looking forward to it. So where are you now? Let me pick you up. After all, your motorcycle is still in my garage." Wu Xiaoming was very happy.
"You have to wait a while. I'll contact you again in half an hour."
"Half an hour, okay, I'll wait. Have you eaten? How about I treat you to a big dinner tonight?"
Yu Zhesen was a little bit overwhelmed by her frantic attentiveness, so he stiffly replied: "I'm eating, so there's no need to spend any money."
After making an appointment with Wu Xiaoming for about half an hour, Yu Zhesen hung up the phone and returned to the restaurant, where he found Shen Yunqiu waiting for him without seeming to move his chopsticks.
"I'm full." Shen Yunqiu said the moment he sat down.
"Eh?" Yu Zhesen showed a surprised look. He looked at Shen Yunqiu's face to confirm that his brother was not joking with him.
There was almost no food on the table. There were only a few food residues in Shen Yunqiu's bowl, and the can of beer was empty.
"Is it...did the food you ordered not suit your taste?" Yu Zhesen asked doubtfully.
In my impression, Shen Yunqiu was not picky about food. They had a hard time when they lived together. At that time, instant noodles and cheap takeaways tasted particularly delicious.
Shen Yunqiu laughed: "No, no, maybe I'm really not hungry. Before getting off work, the personnel ordered Burger King's takeout and milk tea for everyone..."
"In addition to exploitation, your boss also knows how to offer small favors to win people over. It's so cunning."
Shen Yunqiu smiled at Yu Zhesen's words, picked up his mobile phone and his file bag: "There is something else at home tonight that you need my help with, so I'll go ahead and eat slowly."
"Oh, then go back quickly, family matters are important." Yu Zhesen nodded.
"The money for this meal..."
"Hey, I agreed to treat you. You can go back." Yu Zhesen waved his hand, "Let's meet again when we have time next time."
The corner of Shen Yunqiu's mouth moved and he nodded to Yu Zhesen: "Okay, let's meet up next time when we have time."
While talking to Yu Zhesen, he put his mobile phone in his suit pocket. His hand slipped accidentally and the mobile phone fell to the ground with a bang.
The phone fell right next to the dining table. Yu Zhesen bent down without thinking to help Shen Yunqiu pick it up, but Shen Yunqiu moved a step faster and grabbed the phone first.
The screen flashed before Yu Zhesen's eyes and went dark. Although it only lasted for 0.5 seconds, the dynamic vision brought by the blood of God that was beyond ordinary people allowed Yu Zhesen to clearly see the information displayed on it, and he was stunned.
Notice from "Qidao Xinzhi Finance": Mr. Shen Yunqiu, the total amount of principal and interest you owe is 1,460,770 SP points. Please return it before the expiration of this month...
Nearly 1.5 million points are owed? What kind of astronomical figure is this? Yu Zhesen's brain is shutting down.
When he licked blood from Han Jinghu at the Hongyu Bar, the bonus he won was only 300,000 yuan before tax. Most of the support was given to Shen Yunqiu to redeem his parents' exile sentence.
Where did Shen Yunqiu owe such a huge debt?
"Old Shen..." The strong sense of suffocation brought about by this huge debt made Yu Zhesen's voice become hoarse and deep.
Shen Yunqiu had already hurried out of the restaurant door and did not hear his out-of-shape call.
