After negotiating Transsion Holdings' shareholding, Zhang Yida left all the detailed docking work to his entourage and returned to the capital with He Qingxuan.
At the airport exit, Zhang Yida and He Qingxuan walked out talking and laughing.
"Qingxuan, you have been on a business trip for a month. Did you feel anything along the way?"
The winter in Beijing is a bit cold. As soon as I walked out of the airport, a gust of cold air hit my face. He Qingxuan tightened her long navy blue woolen coat and replied:
“It’s an eye-opener. I never knew you had so many industries and investment projects overseas.
I'm thinking, you must be playing a big game."
"Haha!" Zhang Yida said with a smile, "Playing chess is out of the question, it can only be said to be a precaution."
In a fiery red Ferrari parked on the roadside, Zhao Erya was flicking her eyes out of boredom.
She raised her head and saw that Zhang Yida had already arrived. She quickly opened the car door, got out of the car, and walked over in three steps at a time.
Zhang Yida and He Qingxuan also saw Zhao Erya and waved to her.
Zhao Erya smiled, stepped forward, took Zhang Yida's arm, and asked softly: "Have you just arrived?"
"Yeah," Zhang Yida said doubtfully, "Didn't I tell you not to pick me up? Why are you here!"
Zhao Erya looked like she was crying, and said to He Qingxuan next to her: "Qingxuan, come and judge, do you think he is a scumbag?"
He Qingxuan smiled, then nodded heavily.
Zhao Erya pinched Zhang Yida's waist hard and shouted: "Did you see, you scumbag, you've been gone for a month."
However, Zhang Yida was wearing a relatively thick woolen coat, and the force of the twisting was a little lighter, which did not cause "significant harm" to Zhang Yida.
"Okay, okay, I admit defeat." Zhang Yida raised his hands in a gesture of surrender very well aware of current affairs.
"Qingxuan, I envy you! You guys have had a lot of fun abroad this month, right?"
He Qingxuan heard a trace of jealousy in Zhao Erya's words, forced a smile and said: "I have been to six or seven countries, dozens of companies, and spent most of my time dealing with official duties. How can I have time to go out and play?"
"Yes, there are so many things to do that I can almost feel overwhelmed. If it weren't for the fact that the company is about to hold its annual meeting, I would probably have to stay abroad for a while."
Zhang Yida also saw that something was wrong and quickly came out to smooth things over.
"Okay, okay, it's almost noon, let's go have dinner together!" Zhao Erya suggested.
"You two go ahead, I won't be this light bulb anymore." He Qingxuan said with a somewhat unnatural look on her face.
Zhao Erya walked over and took He Qingxuan's arm and said with a smile: "Qingxuan, we haven't gotten together for a long time. We just happen to get together today."
"Another day! I won't disturb you two anymore. I'm going home first."
After He Qingxuan finished speaking, she was about to leave. Zhang Yida stopped her and said, "Since Erya said so, let's go together!"
"But..." He Qingxuan glanced at the Ferrari on the side of the road again.
Zhang Yida understood and said: "You said this car only has two seats, right? It doesn't matter, the company's car to pick us up will be here soon.
You and Erya can take the Ferrari, and I’ll take the company car.”
He Qingxuan opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but no words came out. In the end, it turned into a helpless sigh.
After a while, Ruixiang's car arrived, and it was the same black Mulsanne.
The driver wearing a suit and white gloves trotted forward and took Zhang Yida and He Qingxuan's suitcases after putting them in the trunk.
The driver opened the rear seat door again, held on to the roof, and waited for Zhang Yida to get in the car, then gently closed the door. He walked around the front of the car, got into the driver's seat, started the car, started slowly, and caught up with the car in front of him.
Ferrari driving slowly.
Zhang Yida sat in the back row, crossed his legs, and lit a cigarette.
While smoking, he was recalling the scene just now. If I guessed correctly, Erya was jealous.
Zhang Yida screamed in his heart that he was wronged. He really didn't do anything!
What about the promised trust between best friends? Is it just a plastic sisterhood between women?
Zhao Erya drove the car quietly without saying a word. He Qingxuan bit her lower lip and wanted to speak several times, but she didn't know what to say.
"Just say what you want to say!" Zhao Erya naturally felt that her best friend was hesitant to speak, so she coldly said this.
"I think there is some misunderstanding between us." He Qingxuan also put it aside and said seriously.
"Misunderstanding?" Zhao Erya looked straight ahead and said, "You are overthinking, so there is no misunderstanding."
"He and I really have nothing to do with each other." He Qingxuan frowned. Sitting in the passenger seat, she turned sideways and explained anxiously.
"You like him, right?"
Zhao Erya looked calm and didn't seem to have a trace of emotion when she said this sentence.
He Qingxuan stopped talking now. Zhao Erya raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said again: "I guessed it, didn't you?"
He Qingxuan realized that he was deceiving himself, shook his head and said, "That's just an illusion of yours."
"Really?" Zhao Erya smiled softly and stopped talking.
Zhao Erya felt very uncomfortable at the moment. She had never thought that one day her best friend would steal her boyfriend.
She recalled the scene some time ago when Tang Xianzhi came to talk to her earnestly.
"Erya, I think you need to have a sense of crisis. Zhang Yida is so outstanding, talented and handsome.
In this materialistic society, this kind of man is an extremely rare species. He is like Tang Monk in the eyes of a female goblin."
Looking at Tang Xianzhi's exaggerated performance, Zhao Erya smiled and said: "It's not as exaggerated as you said. Whoever wants it can take it."
Tang Xianzhi pursed his lips and said, "Don't believe it. Don't tell me he is only twenty years old. There are people in his seventies or eighties vying for him."
"Are you talking about Professor Yang?" Zhao Erya gave an example.
Tang Xianzhi shook his head and said, "This society is about fire prevention, theft prevention, and girlfriend protection."
"What about you?" Zhao Erya looked at her with a half-smile.
Tang Xianzhi touched his fleshy chin and said shyly: "I'm absolutely safe with my appearance."
"I heard that Zhang Yida went on a business trip abroad? Did he bring a female secretary with him?
I'm telling you, if you bring a female secretary, nothing good will happen."
Looking at Tang Xianzhi's curious and gossipy eyes, Zhao Erya said with a smile: "Where are you thinking? Only a very close friend of mine is with him."
"Female? Isn't she pretty? Why is she on a business trip with Zhang Yida?"
Zhao Erya once again told Tang Xianzhi a series of things related to He Qingxuan.
Tang Xianzhi commented: "It's hard to say this. But I suggest you be more alert!"
"It's not as good as you...
In short, it’s just a test to test her. If nothing happens, that’s the best thing.”
Zhao Erya came to her senses instantly. She used the method taught by Tang Xianzhi and after a little testing, she found that there was a ghost.
Although I no longer want to face it, when something like this happens, escaping is always not an option.
"It's better than when we were in high school. Apart from studying, we didn't have to worry about other things.
When weekends come, we go shopping together to buy clothes, watch movies, and listen to concerts..."
While driving, Zhao Erya recounted her past friendship with He Qingxuan.
He Qingxuan didn't say a word and just listened silently.
The car stopped at the entrance of a high-end Western restaurant. He Qingxuan got out of the car and said, "How about you two eat? I feel a little uncomfortable."
"We're here, let's talk about it after dinner!" After saying this, Zhao Erya went straight into the restaurant.
Zhang Yida arrived a step late, looked at He Qingxuan who was hesitating at the door, and asked: "What's the matter? Let's go in first!"
Zhao Erya was sitting at the table ordering food. When she saw Zhang Yida and He Qingxuan walking in side by side, she could no longer hold back the fire she was holding in her heart. She threw the menu on the table and said coldly:
"Zhang Yida, I think we need to have a serious talk!"
"What's going on? You've eaten gunpowder!" Zhang Yida was a little confused.
"Let's talk! I'm a little tired, so I'm going home first." He Qingxuan was really tired at this moment.
After saying that, she turned around and left without looking back. Zhang Yida was about to persuade her to stay, but when he saw Zhao Erya's cold eyes, he said nothing.
"What did you talk about in the car?" Zhang Yida didn't understand the subtle emotions between women, but he guessed that something happened in the car that he didn't know about.
Zhao Erya casually ordered two steaks, and the waiter next to her excused herself very wisely.
"Talk to you!" Zhao Erya replied.
"Talk to me? Or flirt with me?" Zhang Yida looked confused.
"Don't be so playful with me." Zhao Erya said seriously, "Do you know that He Qingxuan is interested in you?"
Zhang Yida was at a loss for words. He was not stupid, he could feel it. But now seeing what Erya meant, he wanted to talk about it openly.
Zhang Yida shook his head and said: "I have always been addicted to work and can't extricate myself."
"Don't pretend to be crazy with me here. You can't get away with it today."
Zhang Yida smashes his mouth, there are too many women who are interested in me, in the company, among the partners...
"I really don't know!" Zhang Yida said with an aggrieved look, with the word "unjust" written all over his face.
But Zhang Yida underestimated Zhao Erya this time. She smiled coldly and said: "He Qingxuan told me everything about you two and asked me to quit."
"Nani?" Zhang Yida opened his eyes wide and held the grass in his hand. What kind of drama is this?
Zhao Erya followed the method taught by Tang Xianzhi and carefully observed Zhang Yida's facial expression, and it did not look like he was faking it.
She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. It should be that He Qingxuan had unrequited love, and it was not as bad as "both cheating".
"You stay away from her from now on, do you hear me?"
Seeing that Zhao Erya's tone had slowed down, Zhang Yida began to counterattack and asked: "What are you doubting? Doubt me?"
"I didn't. I was just afraid that you would make a mistake." Zhao Erya knew that she had wronged Zhang Yida, and she lost the confidence to speak, so she spoke softer and quieter.
"I thought you had unreserved trust in me." Zhang Yida shook his head and sneered, "It seems I have overthought it."
"Don't get me wrong. I'm just talking."
Zhao Erya felt a little aggrieved, tears welling up in her eyes. She obviously did nothing wrong, so why did she have to bow her head?
"Okay, okay, don't cry."
Zhang Yida took out the tissue on the table and wiped Zhao Erya's tears. He was not the kind of person who was unreasonable and unforgiving. Seeing that Erya had a better attitude towards admitting her mistakes, he forgave her.
