"Boyfriend?" Sitting at the main table were all the core children of the Zhao family. They had never heard that Zhao Qingya had a boyfriend, and the eyes they cast on Fang Zhicheng were filled with complex emotions.
The third generation of the Zhao family is now the direct descendant. In addition to the eldest grandson Zhao Guoyi, there is also the granddaughter Zhao Qingya. Zhao Guoyi is pursuing an official career and has no idea about the family business. Therefore, such a huge asset of Hongda Group will inevitably be inherited by Zhao Qingya, and
If he becomes her husband, he will definitely be rich and powerful in the future.
Fang Zhicheng wore a slim-fitting suit today. He looked mature and stable. He was two or three years older than his actual age, but he could still be seen to be a little younger than Zhao Qingya. In the eyes of many people, he would inevitably be regarded as a softie.
A middle-aged woman sitting next to Lafayette said in a sinister tone: "Mom, is Qingya's boyfriend too young? I'm afraid Qingya will suffer in the future. When a woman is looking for a man, she still has to find a better man.
It would be appropriate for her to be older."
Lafayette glanced at the middle-aged woman indifferently and said softly: "This is Qingya's own business. She is not young anymore and can make her own decisions."
The middle-aged woman was Zhao Qingya's aunt, named Zhao Min. After being scolded by Lafayette, she curled her lips and said no more, but she secretly laughed at Zhao Qingya in her heart, guessing that this boyfriend would not last long. The reason was very simple.
It's simple. Lafayette looks kind and kind, but that's just on the surface. Is she the kind of person who casually puts kittens and puppies into Zhao's house?
Zhao Qingya felt a little unhappy when her aunt Zhao Min had a bad attitude towards Fang Zhicheng, and then she felt relieved when she saw Fang Zhicheng's calm face. After the two sat down, Zhao Min asked with a smile: "Xiao Fang, is it?
Right? Where do you work? What do your parents do?"
Zhao Qingya's expression turned bad when she saw Zhao Min pressing closer and closer.
Fang Zhicheng didn't care. He shrugged and said with a smile: "I am a civil servant. I met Sister Ya in Yinzhou. My parents have passed away and I am an orphan."
As soon as Fang Zhicheng finished speaking, Zhao Min showed a look of disbelief, because he never expected that Zhao Qingya would find an ordinary civil servant and an orphan. Everyone knew that Zhao Qingya was very arrogant, and her family helped
She has arranged many blind dates, but no one has ever fallen into her eyes. Among these people are children from wealthy families and entrepreneurial elites, but in terms of overall conditions, almost all of them are better than Fang Zhicheng.
Seeing the uproar on the faces of everyone at the main table, Fang Zhicheng continued: "You may think that my conditions are not worthy of Qingya. I have also hesitated and felt inferior, but love is so magical. When the eyes of two people meet,
Together, in that wonderful moment when friction creates sparks, inferiority complex will turn into courage, and hesitation will disappear. I am very confident that there should be no second person in the world who loves Qingya more than me."
Fang Zhicheng's words were very disgusting, but combined with his unique voice and methodical speaking speed, they had a unique appeal. Zhao Qingya felt warm in her heart for some reason, and stretched out her catkins to catch Fang Zhicheng's lips.
The palms of his hands and the corners of his mouth traced the arc of happiness.
Zhao Qingya didn't expect Fang Zhicheng to say a confession so naturally. Fang Zhicheng happened to turn his face sideways at this time and met Zhao Qingya's eyes. The affection was so affectionate that it was touching.
After Fang Zhicheng said these words, he also admired himself a little, because he did not expect that he could say these love words in such a literary and artistic way. Certain words had actually been hidden in his heart for a long time. Now that the external environment aroused them, he immediately
Said it directly.
When Zhao Min saw Fang Zhicheng and Zhao Qingya's grand display of affection, his heart froze and he was about to speak. However, there was a noise not far away, which diverted everyone's attention. It was the youngest deputy ministerial cadre in Huainan Province.
, Executive Vice Governor Zhao Guoyi walked into the banquet hall with great strides.
Zhao Guoyi shook hands with everyone, and then walked to the main table. After sending blessings to Lafayette first, he then turned his eyes to Fang Zhicheng, greeted him, and said with a smile: "Zhicheng, are you here?
"
Zhao Guoyi's move instantly dispelled the doubts of everyone at the main table. It turned out that Zhao Guoyi knew that Zhao Qingya was dating Fang Zhicheng. Although Zhao Guoyi was not in charge of the Hongda Group, he was the eldest grandson and a deputy provincial cadre after all, and had a strong relationship with the Zhao family.
Absolute right to speak. Apart from Lafayette, Zhao Guoyi is the most important core figure in the family. Although he is not directly responsible for the operation of the family business, his every word and action will affect the direction of the entire Zhao family.
The Zhao family has been in business for so many years, and they have come to an important conclusion. In China, business will always be inseparable from officialdom. After Hongda Group has grown to a certain scale, it will be difficult to break through, and no matter how powerful the business empire it establishes, it will not be able to defeat it.
It was due to policy changes that Zhao Guoyi entered the officialdom, and he was able to be promoted quickly because Hongda Group provided a lot of support behind him.
After Lafayette suffered a serious illness last year, both her body and energy have declined significantly. She no longer has the monopoly power she once had. Instead, she leaves most of the problems to the next generation. She is only responsible for the rear camp and does not care much.
Trivial things.
Zhao Min smiled and said: "Guoyi, you knew they were getting along, why didn't you tell me, which made me spend a lot of time and ask someone to find a partner for Qingya!"
Zhao Guoyi waved his hand and said with a smile: "I told you earlier not to worry about Qingya's love life, but you didn't take my words to heart. I knew about Qingya's love life before, but it was her
She doesn't want to tell her secret, so how can I secretly leak her secret and tell you." After saying this, he blinked at Zhao Qingya, who secretly made a thumbs up gesture to thank Zhao Guoyi.
To provide help in times of need.
Zhao Min shook his head helplessly and sighed: "That's it, that's all, just think of it as my own sentimentality."
After speaking, she took a deep look at Fang Zhicheng. Although Zhao Guoyi came to rescue the two of them, she still didn't think much of Zhao Qingya and Fang Zhicheng.
Marriage matters have always been about being from the same family. In order to pursue the so-called true love, his younger brother, the father of Zhao Qingya and Zhao Guoyi, had a direct falling out with Lafayette. Although they got married, they did not get the blessing of the family in the end. In Lafayette
It ended tragically despite their intervention.
Zhao Min secretly thought about how to use this opportunity to shake Lafayette's decision to pass the Hongda Group to Zhao Qingya. The Hongda Group is a huge family business, but as the eldest daughter, she has no actual power, which makes her
It was difficult for her to accept it, so she had been strategizing how to seize power from Zhao Qingya.
Unfortunately, Zhao Qingya is very smart and lucky. After returning to Qiongjin from Yinzhou, several major decisions have brought huge benefits to Hongda Group. Especially the Yinzhou Yuhu Ecological Zone project has greatly stimulated investment.
The investors' confidence has caused the stock to more than triple. Zhao Qingya's current position is very stable, and the majority of the board of directors has recognized her leadership ability. Under this situation, it is very difficult for Zhao Min to seize power.
But now something unexpected has happened. Since she can't deal with the company's operations, she has to find a breakthrough in her emotional life.
Zhao Min knew Lafayette very well. This kind-faced old lady seemed to have a smile on her face, but she didn't comment too much. In fact, she had already made some plans in her heart.
As people get older, they become more sophisticated. It seems that Lafayette doesn't care about things anymore, but how can he turn a blind eye to the important events in his granddaughter's life?
Zhao Min very much hoped that Zhao Qingya and Lafayette would fall out because of this matter, so that she would undoubtedly have a chance. Zhao Min glanced at his son Huang Haoran sitting next to him and winked repeatedly. Huang Haoran smiled and raised his glass to talk to Lafayette.
Said a few words of blessing.
Lafayette smiled lightly and said: "Haoran is becoming more and more sensible."
Zhao Min quickly said: "Haoran has been working very hard recently and has won unanimous praise from his colleagues. Mom, do you think we should let him move?"
Lafayette smiled kindly and said: "As for work matters, let's ask Qingya. Now she is in charge of Hongda Group's affairs, I don't care about it anymore."
Zhao Min was slightly startled, with no trace of disappointment on his face.
Because of his special status, it was inconvenient for Zhao Guoyi to stay for a long time. After the banquet started, he said a few words of blessing and left quickly. The government has strict regulations on officials hosting banquets. Because of the special status of the Zhao family, Lafayette is an iconic figure in the business world, and so is Zhao Guoyi.
After applying with the relevant departments in advance, he received special approval to hold such a large-scale banquet. However, no government officials were invited to this birthday banquet. Zhao Guoyi only showed up briefly at the banquet and then left to avoid becoming a political enemy in the future.
handle.
Because he was sitting at the main table, people came to toast from time to time, so Fang Zhicheng raised the wine glass many times, but did not drink a lot of food. Zhao Qingya knew that Fang Zhicheng was too drunk, so she found an excuse to leave midway. Seeing Zhao Qingya and Fang Zhicheng
After leaving, Lafayette reached out and waved not far away, and a middle-aged man walked to her side silently.
Lafayette whispered: "Tell Qingya that I want to have a private chat with her boyfriend tomorrow."
The middle-aged man nodded, and then disappeared like a shadow. Zhao Min saw everything in his eyes, with a smile on his lips, secretly thinking that as expected, Lafayette would not easily agree to the relationship between the two.
Just after returning to the hotel and entering the room, Zhao Qingya received a call. Seeing her thoughtful, Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Does Lafayette want to see me?" Fang Zhicheng could guess a little bit from the conversation that Zhao Qingya just had on the phone.
.
Zhao Qingya nodded and said with a wry smile: "If you refuse, it's okay if you don't go." Zhao Qingya looked at Fang Zhicheng with complex eyes and mixed emotions. She knew the reason why Lafayette wanted to see Fang Zhicheng and was afraid that Fang Zhicheng would be harmed.
Lafayette's blow.
Fang Zhicheng shrugged, tilted his head and smiled: "Why should I refuse?"
