Three hundred and twentieth eight chapters insurmountable hurdle

Shen Ji knew more or less what had happened to Cao Mo's family over the years, and also knew that Cao Mo had a brother-in-law who had no contact with his family. Just now he was curious about who Tian Zhen was eating here with, but when the box door opened, he saw The thin face of the middle-aged man facing the box door looked very similar to that of Cao Mo. After thinking about what he said, he understood who this person was.

Shen Ji originally planned to exchange a few words with Chen Fan, then open another table for dinner, and then rush to the project construction site with Chen Fan in the afternoon to learn about the situation, but he did not expect that Song Yuqing's aunt Su Xiu would also be dragged there. Chen Fan and Uncle Cao Mo's dinner table.

When setting off from Xinhai in the morning, Shen Ji heard Cao Mo talk about Song Yuqing's aunt Su Xiu. He knew that she used to be a staff member of Yucheng Real Estate and had always stayed in the Jinying Lake project, but this was the first time he met her.

Seeing Su Xiu's tall, well-proportioned figure and good temperament, Shen Ji couldn't help but his eyes lit up, thinking that Song Yuqing's mother's family was full of beauties.

If they hadn't talked about Aunt Song Yuqing's age on the way, Shen Ji would have been hard-pressed to imagine that the young woman in front of him was already forty years old.

Shen Ji looked at Cao Mo.

If Song Yuqing's aunt was not present, he could simply put Chen Fan aside, and they would open a separate private room to have a quiet meal, ignoring Cao Mo and his uncle. But now it was up to Cao Mo to make the decision. .

However, no matter what Cao Mo or Shen Ji said, Chen Fan would directly make arrangements.

Although their table had just finished eating, Chen Fan did not rush to join us for a meal, but directly arranged for a new private room to prepare meals.

He didn't know the identities of Cao Mo and Song Yuqing, and he took it for granted that Cao Mo and the other two beautiful girls, as friends of Shen Ji and his fiancée Wu Yunling, might not have that close relationship.

Otherwise, Su Xiu would have mentioned this beautiful girl who called her "aunt" before.

However, Shen Ji is not only essentially in charge of the Overseas Investment Division, but will also most likely be in charge of the entire Dongsheng in the future. There is no way Chen Fan would be careless about the reception.

Of course, it is easy to open another table for dinner, but Chen Fan has a headache when it comes to arranging accompanying guests.

Chen Fan accepted Cao Fangming's banquet today and brought Su Xiu, Tian Zhen and another manager of the department to the banquet.

When he had the opportunity at this time, he must have wanted to connect with Shen Jiduo. Looking back, he saw Cao Fangming and others sitting in the box, motionless, with no intention of leaving the box to get acquainted with Shen Ji. He felt a little strange, but he definitely couldn't say it rashly. If two tables are shared together.

"Let's go and sit down first!"

Seeing the waiter opening the door of the box next door, Chen Fan first invited Shen Ji in. Seeing that Shen Ji had no intention of getting to know Cao Fangming and others, Chen Fan asked Tian Zhen and another department manager to accompany Cao Fangming and others first. Some Asked Su Xiu uncertainly,

"Manager Su, will you accompany Mr. Shen and the others later?"

Su Xiu grabbed Song Yuqing's arm, and she was also confused when she saw Cao Mo following Shen Ji directly behind Shen Ji with his hands in his trouser pockets.

When Chen Fan asked uncertainly, she couldn't help but glance at Cao Fangming, who was sitting in the box with a stiff face.

Su Xiu had met Chen Rong on New Year's Eve last year, when Chen Rong and Cao Mo's family took a cruise on the Qingtang River.

She listened to Cao Fangming talking at the dinner table just now, and guessed that he was Cao Mo's uncle, and Chen Rong was actually Cao Mo's "stepmother". She didn't have a good impression of Cao Mo, so she kept silent just now and did not have an affair with Cao Fangming. , but when Cao Mo saw his brother-in-law, he walked into the box next door without even saying hello or looking at him?

Or is it that she was confused just now and thought something wrong. In fact, Chen Rong did not get together with Cao Mo's father, and this Cao Fangming had nothing to do with Cao Mo?

"Auntie, come over and have dinner with us!" Song Yuqing grabbed Su Xiu's arm and urged her in a daze.

Su Xiu and Cao Fangming were not familiar with each other, so they happened to be pulled over to have a meal together at noon. Not to mention that she had to have dinner with Xiaoqing at noon. If she didn't go back to the company in the afternoon, she would have to accompany Xiaoqing, Zhou Han and the others to go shopping in Chonghai. Do your best to be a landlord!

She turned around and went back to the box to get her phone and bag, and looked at Cao Fangming doubtfully. When she saw Cao Fangming sitting there with a strange look on his face, she thought she had made a mistake. Maybe Chen Rong, the director of Dongsheng Group, had passed the Spring Festival. In the end, he did not get together with Cao Mo's father.

Su Xiu also had a heart for gossip. She walked into the box and sat down. She said a few words about the situation to Shen Ji. Seeing Chen Fan dragging Shen Jitao closer, she asked Yuqing in a low voice: "Didn't you say that you are from the headquarters of your group before?" Chen Rong, are you related to Cao Mo's father? Why are you breaking up now?"

"We didn't break up?" Song Yuqing still felt a little guilty, and her thinking was not that sharp. When Su Xiu asked about this, she asked strangely, "What's wrong? What did you hear?"

"Ah?" Su Xiu became even more confused and whispered to Song Yuqing, "Do you know Cao Fangming in the next box? If Chen Rong is still related to Cao Mo's father, then judging from what he said, he should be Cao Fangming Mo's brother-in-law, but look at their appearance, they don't look like they know each other. Don't we think we have met a liar?"

"ah?"

Song Yuqing, who was behind to talk to Zhou Han and Shen Ji's fiancée Wu Yunling, didn't hear what Cao Mo and his brother-in-law just said in the box, so she didn't recognize the thin-faced middle-aged man in the box next door as Cao Mo. 's brother-in-law.

Of course Song Yuqing knew about the discord between Cao Mo's family and her brother-in-law's family, but she couldn't figure out how Cao Mo and his brother-in-law got together with the people from Dongsheng Chonghai Branch?

Encountered by coincidence?

There was a standard large round table for sixteen people in Nuo Da's box. The dining table was a bit too wide. Wu Yunling and Shen Ji sat on one side, and Chen Fan sat next to them to greet them.

Although Cao Mo was sitting on their side, Song Yuqing deliberately separated Zhou Han from Cao Mo in order to avoid suspicion. She felt strange in her heart and couldn't reach over to ask Cao Mo what was going on.

Su Xiu couldn't figure out the situation. She didn't know whether to remind Chen Fan to confirm whether the identities of the people in the next box were who they claimed. However, Cao Fangming claimed that he and Tian Zhen were neighbors. It was unlikely that Tian Zhen would have any intention to help Cao Fangming. Lie to them?

Su Xiu was full of troubling thoughts, but fortunately Chen Fan couldn't completely ignore Cao Fangming and others in the next box. After greeting Shen Ji for a few words, he stood up and said: "I'll go to the next door to socialize first, and I'll come over to accompany you later." Mr. Shen, please have a few drinks!"

But after Chen Fan left, Shen Ji stood up calmly, closed the box door, leaned his back against the box door and asked Cao Mo, who was sitting on this side:

"How could your uncle bring up Mr. Chen's name in Chonghai and talk to this person?

Do people from the branch eat together?”

Su Xiu then opened her eyes wide and stared at Cao Mo's face that was very popular with girls.

Cao Mo hit his forehead with a headache, turned sideways and said to Shen Ji:

"He previously ordered a batch of solar power station components from a solar energy company in Chonghai and paid a deposit. They should be delivered soon. Now that his next home has a problem, he wants to find the solar energy manufacturer in Chonghai to terminate the contract and transfer the deposit from When the other party took it back, he probably thought that Dongsheng was familiar with the Chonghai Municipal Government and it would be useful to find someone to say hello to, so he used Aunt Rong's name to show off..."

"You didn't look surprised just now. I was still wondering what was going on!" Shen Ji said with a smile, "But don't worry, Chen Fan is a smart guy. He will definitely find Mr. Chen to vent his feelings first. , he has to ask Mr. Chen to admit his favor to your family, so he can help find someone from the city government to say hello... If the deposit amount is not small, it is not a simple favor. "

At this time, Shen Ji opened the door of the box a crack, pretending that nothing happened, and sat back in his seat.

Su Xiu, no matter how stupid she was, understood at this time that Cao Fangming was indeed Cao Mo's brother-in-law, but his relationship with Cao Mo's family was probably very bad, so Chen Rong refused to come forward to greet him, so he simply used Chen Rong's name to cause trouble.

After a while, the box door was pushed open from the outside again.

"Cao Mo, can you come out and say a word?"

Cao Fangming finally knew that since he was unfortunately broken by Cao Mo, his trick could no longer be played. If he didn't make it clear at this time, it might even make matters worse. He could only bite the bullet and push open the door of the box, thinking Then he called Cao Mo out to say a few words.

"..." Cao Mo looked at his uncle, Cao Li, and Chen Fan who looked astonished outside the box door. He didn't say anything, but just picked up the lighter on the table and turned it quickly between his fingers.

"My uncle did something wrong in the past..." Cao Fangming said.

"..." Cao Mo had a charming smile on his face, as if waiting for his uncle to continue talking.

However, the essence of his expression was that no matter what Cao Fangming said, he was indifferent and had no reaction.

After a long while, seeing his uncle still standing there with a shameless face, Cao Mo stopped the lighter in his hand, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and lit it slowly, as if it had nothing to do with him and the time was peaceful.

Su Xiu felt that Cao Mo had gone too far. Regardless of the conflicts between the parents, she thought that as a junior, Cao Mo should not show such a look to her uncle in front of so many outsiders.

Chen Fan saw Shen Ji playing with his cell phone with his head down, and from time to time saying irrelevant things to his fiancée Wu Yunling, who was a little confused about the situation. He had no intention of intervening in this matter. Even though he felt that the scene was a bit ugly, he did not make any decisions and put Cao Fangming aside. Pull him into the box to talk.

In the end, Cao Fangming left calmly.

Everyone in the box breathed a sigh of relief, but the atmosphere was still inexplicably depressing.

Chen Fan watched Cao Fangming and others leaving in embarrassment, walked into the box, and laughed a few times. He wanted to say a few words to lighten the atmosphere, but didn't know where to start. Seeing that Cao Mo was still playing with the lighter in his hand, Chen Fan felt a little annoyed. .

On the one hand, Chen Fan didn't understand why Cao Mo had such a face and attitude towards his uncle in front of outsiders. On the other hand, he felt that no matter how superficial the relationship between Cao Fangming and him was, he was still his guest after all. That's it. He felt very humiliated when Cao Mo drove him away with such an attitude.

He had just returned to the box next door and heard Tian Zhen talk about the identity of the young man in front of him, but Dongsheng was not a dynasty after all.

What's more, Shen Ji is still sitting here. Chen Fan thought that even if he is the daughter of chairman Ding Zhaoqiang, it would be rude to pose in front of Shen Ji like this, not to mention that Cao Mo is only the stepson of group director Chen Rong.

Of course, Shen Ji didn't say anything, and Chen Fan was dissatisfied and wouldn't speak out.

Cao Mo could tell that Chen Fan and Su Xiu were dissatisfied with him, but there were some things that it was impossible to explain to them.

He was not in the mood to continue sitting here, so he picked up the mobile phone, cigarette and lighter on the table, and said to Shen Ji: "Let's go to the city to find a small restaurant to eat..."

After Cao Mo said that, he opened the door and walked out.

Chen Fan, Su Xiu and Tian Zhen, who had just returned from seeing Cao Fangming out of the restaurant, looked at each other in shock when they saw this scene.

What is this?

Show your face to them?

Are you shouting at Shen Ji?

Wu Yunling was a little dazed. Shen Ji stood up, took the car keys, and said to her: "You, Yu Qing, and the others stay here for dinner. I will accompany Cao Mo to walk around the city in the afternoon. If you need anything, call me on my phone..."

Chen Fan, Su Xiu, and Tian Zhen were even more dumbfounded. After a while, they saw Cao Mo standing on the road through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Shen Ji ran to the parking lot, drove the car over, picked him up, and drove out of the Penghua Resort Hotel.

Cao Mo lit a cigarette and handed it to Shen Ji who was driving. He lit another cigarette and smoked it. He said, "When I came out of the detention center, my father didn't know how many years he would be sentenced in prison. Jiaying was just When I was in junior high school, my grandma was in poor health, and my family didn’t even have the money to buy medicine and pay for Jiaying’s tuition. , I just want everyone to be well on their own in the future, I will never be able to get over this hurdle..."

…………

…………

Although Shen Ji left his fiancée alone and was called away by Cao Mo, in Chen Fan's view, Shen Ji still valued his friend's face too much.

Although Chen Fan wanted to get closer to Shen Ji, he didn't have to stay with Shen Ji's fiancée. After all, there were differences between men and women. If he was too enthusiastic about Wu Yunling, he didn't know what Shen Ji would think.

After confirming that Shen Ji had driven away, Chen Fan picked up his mobile phone and pretended to remember something. He said to Su Xiu and Tian Zhen: "I have something urgent to go back to the company with Xiao Wu. You two will accompany me this afternoon." Good Miss Wu and the others..."

After saying that, he dragged another manager from the marketing department and left the restaurant.

After being humiliated several times, especially after many people knew about the relationship between Chen Rong and the Cao Mo family, Tian Zhen felt that he had become a joke at the group headquarters, so he applied for a job in the Jinying Lake project.

She especially didn't want to have anything to do with Cao Mo, but after all, she was not Chen Fan. At this time, she still had the right to leave at will, so she could only stay and be a maid in a depressed mood, and she and Su Xiu were responsible for taking care of Wu Yunling's afternoon schedule. .

"Cao Mo is crazy, let's ignore him. I heard that the Bodhisattva in Guangjiao Temple in Chonghai is very spiritual. Let's go hiking and burn incense in the afternoon after dinner..." Zhou Han stretched his body and didn't need to follow Cao Mo and Shen Ji around in the afternoon. She immediately arranged the itinerary.

Tian Zhenmo

Silently, Su Xiu looked at Wu Yunling. She always felt that Wu Yunling was the main guest and she had to listen to her opinion on how to arrange the afternoon.

Wu Yunling usually likes to steal the limelight, and she will act coquettishly in front of Shen Ji when she has nothing to do. However, she does not feel qualified to steal the limelight in front of Zhou Han, who defrauded the Lu family of 50 million and still acted like a normal person, and she even flattered Zhou Han: "Well, the Bodhisattva in Guangjiao Temple is really efficacious? Shen Ji has never believed in this. If I tell him this, he will definitely laugh at me for reading so many years in vain, but sometimes some things are really mysterious. Well...if they ask at night, I will tell you that you must take us to worship the Bodhisattva!"

Su Xiu has been single since her two unsuccessful marriages, but she still has some ability to watch faces.

During the Spring Festival, when she saw Zhou Han staying at Song Yuqing's house and heard Song Yuqing say that she was also an employee of Dongsheng Overseas Department, Su Xiu didn't see anything special about Zhou Han.

Now she is a little confused.

Cao Mo lost his temper and called Shen Ji away alone, and ignored them all. Now even Zhou Han had a bossy attitude in front of Shen Ji's fiancée.

She couldn't understand, was Shen Ji the president of the overseas department, or was Cao Mo the president of the overseas department?

A few women didn't drink, but they silently calculated the caloric value while eating. After a few dips in some special Jiangsu delicacies, they threw down their chopsticks and drove to the Wufeng Mountain Scenic Area in the north of the industrial park to climb the mountain to worship the Bodhisattva.

Tian Zhen was not happy at first, and was tired from climbing with them all the way. It was not until four o'clock in the afternoon that Shen Ji called and said he would come over to meet them. However, Tian Zhen really didn't want to see Cao Mo, so he made an excuse to drive first. Return to the branch.

The Jinying Lake project involves a wide range of projects. After officially signing the contract with the Chonghai Municipal Government, Dongsheng first built a splendid sales center on the north bank of Jinying Lake. Dongsheng Holdings, a joint venture with Chonghai Real Estate Co., Ltd., and Yucheng Real Estate The company is located in the sales center.

Tian Zhen had just parked her car in the parking lot in front of the sales center building. Before she got out of the car, she saw several cars driving over behind her. Among them, a light gray Rolls-Royce and an Audi A8 were the most eye-catching. .

Tian Zhen didn't know the origin of the Audi A8, but she knew that the Rolls-Royce was the car of the group's chairman, Ding Zhaoqiang.

Tian Zhen got off the car and waited by the parking lot. Without waiting for her notification, she saw Chen Fan running out of the sales center with the management of the branch. Chen Fan stepped forward to open the door and saw Chairman Ding Zhaoqiang accompanied by two middle-aged people. People got out of the Rolls-Royce. Dong Chengpeng, Xu Zhi, Xu Xin and other headquarters staff got out of the car behind. A group of people stood in front of the sales center building and talked.

Although Tian Zhen knew that he could not get along with a person like Ding Zhaoqiang, he could not walk into the sales center on his own, so he stepped forward and stood behind everyone. Unexpectedly, Ding Zhaoqiang suddenly ran to Chongqing without even saying hello. What are you doing here?

Ding Zhaoqiang was stunned when he saw that no one else came out after Chen Fan and others walked out of the sales center. After a while, he asked: "Shen Ji didn't come to the project department this afternoon?"

Ding Zhaoqiang knew that Shen Ji came to Chonghai today, so Chen Fan certainly wouldn't think it was strange. Even if his nephew came to Chonghai to play, he might have mentioned it to Ding Zhaoqiang.

"At noon, Penghua met Mr. Shen and Mr. Shen went to the city to play with his friends. He didn't come to the project department in the afternoon," Chen Fan asked, "How about I call Mr. Shen at this time to come over?"

Ding Zhaoqiang was a little embarrassed.

Qian Wenhan and Ge Jun looked at the rather impressive Jinyinghu Sales Center leisurely without saying anything.

"There's no need to ask Shen Ji to come over. Just call him and tell him that I've arrived in Chonghai. By the way, tell Shen Ji on the phone that the money manager from Sun Hung Investments and Mr. Ge from Dongjiang Securities are free today. I invited you to Chonghai to relax..."

Tian Zhen was curious. Ding Zhaoqiang asked Chen Fan to call his nephew, but why was he so cautious? If he wanted to see him, could he just inform him to come over?

Although Ding Zhaoqiang and others were surrounded by Chen Fan and others and were taken to the VIP conference room to talk, Tian Zhen did not dare to relax when he returned to the office.

When Ding Zhaoqiang comes to Chonghai, he will most likely meet with the leaders of the Chonghai Municipal Government. Whether it is eating or discussing project construction, each department of the branch needs someone to follow up. As the deputy manager of a small department, she has to be there at any time. I was prepared to be called over for questioning. I sat at my desk and turned on my computer. I searched the Internet for resources of Sun Hung Investments and Dongjiang Securities, and then I found out what Sun Hung’s “Mr. Qian” and Dongjiang Securities’ “Mr. Ge” were. figure.

After waiting for half an hour, Tian Zhen saw Shen Ji, Cao Mo and others parking their cars in front of the sales center building. When they entered the lobby, a group of people walked towards the VIP conference room. Tian Zhen greeted them and said: "Mr. Ding was chatting with Mr. Qian from Sun Hung Investments and Mr. Ge from Dongjiang Securities in the conference room inside..."

"I know." Shen Ji said.

"..." Tian Zhen glanced at Cao Mo, Song Yuqing, Zhou Han and others hesitantly, but hesitated to speak.

Su Xiu, who entered the sales center at the back, understood what Tian Zhen meant. The chairman suddenly came to Chonghai with his friends and called Shen Ji to come and meet. Even Wu Yunling was not suitable to go in, let alone Cao Mo, Yu Qing, Zhou Han and the others, she chased after them and said, "I'll take Miss Wu and the others to visit our sales center..."

"Ah!" Shen Ji finally knew what Tian Zhen's hesitation meant.

Cao Mo laughed and said, "The sales center is really beautiful. I just want to visit the sales center. Mr. Shen, you can do it yourself."

"I really didn't know that my uncle was playing this trick. Come in with me!" Shen Ji couldn't help but grabbed Cao Mo and dragged him to the conference room. "Why are you so angry at my uncle? He is plotting against you." , don’t let me be caught in the middle and I’m not human!”

It was only after Shen Ji received the call that he figured out his uncle's true intention.

Cao Mo's domestic funds are very limited. Even if he is willing to participate in the project here, he can only use part of the funds, but two to three hundred million cannot satisfy Dongsheng's hunger for funds.

Qian Wenhan holds more than 3 billion in cash, and if Dongjiang Securities is willing to issue a trust fund specifically for Dongsheng Real Estate, it can raise assets ranging from 5 to 6 billion to more than 10 billion.

His uncle was targeting Qian Wenhan and Ge Jun, but he did not have a deep friendship with Qian Wenhan or Ge Jun. Instead, Qian Wenhan was very close to Cao Mo.

This was his uncle's real intention in arranging this trip to Chonghai.

Shen Ji is also annoyed that his uncle is too calculating, but what can he do?

Su Xiu and Tian Zhen were completely confused. Hearing what Shen Ji meant, the chairman came to Chonghai with his friends, specifically for Cao Mo?

What is this?

is it possible?
