Chapter 742: The World May Not Always Be Cool
The two of them walked slowly along the Qinhuai River.
Huo Chengdong seemed quite concerned about Shi Lei's troubles and asked a few more questions.
Because it involves political factors and the entire Song family, Shi Lei can't say much. Then Huo Chengdong asked about Shi Lei's current company and seemed to be quite interested in Qixuan.
Shi Lei briefly introduced the current projects of Qixuan Technology, and then talked about the power bank.
Huo Chengdong smiled and said: "This power bank will not have a long life. If it is operated well, it will have some results in the short term. But since it is complementary to the bicycle business, it might as well expand faster. Investors are here Time will make it clear that Qixuan’s acquisition of pop-up has both advantages and disadvantages, but the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.”
Shi Lei was not surprised that Huo Chengdong saw through the nature of his flash mob business at a glance. Such a businessman would never lack foresight and vision, and was completely different from a playboy like Mr. Qian.
"In the past few days since returning to China, I have seen Qixuan Bicycle, Chongbai, and a shared bicycle whose brand I can't remember clearly. We need to expand quickly. If we cannot establish dominance before the C round, we will continue to decline. It’s more difficult.”
Shi Lei sighed and said, "Now some people have started to make trouble with me..."
Huo Chengdong smiled and said: "Shopping malls are like battlefields, and there are always some monsters and monsters. For the first provocation from a non-competitor, you must fight back resolutely and not be afraid to use all your strength, because this shows your determination and courage. time. Don’t back down.”
Shi Lei nodded and said, "It's just a little difficult."
"Oh, the other party is entangled with you?"
"That's not true, but that person will also attend Bai Lao's birthday party tomorrow..."
There was no need for Shi Lei to say anything more. Huo Chengdong laughed and said, "So, you hesitated. This is obviously the best opportunity to fight back, but you are worried about disturbing Bai Lao's birthday banquet?"
Shi Lei nodded, and Huo Chengdong said: "If Bai Laoruo knows that you have this intention, he must be very happy that he did not misjudge you. However, I personally think that there is no need to worry too much. This person clearly knows the relationship between you and the Bai family." Relationship, you fought back at Bai Lao's birthday banquet, this should also be Bai Lao's attitude. Compared to you, Bai Lao will not tolerate such provocation. Unless the other party is far stronger than the Bai family. "
"That's not true. The other party is a native of Xixi. It has deep roots and lush branches. The resources at the lower level are much greater than those at the upper level. The size should be less than one-tenth of the Bai family."
"Then fight." Huo Chengdong looked far across the Qinhuai River and towards the Linhe Community on the other side.
Shi Lei looked at Huo Chengdong and didn't say anything more, but he slowly began to have concerns in his heart.
In the evening, I invited Huo Chengdong to have a home-cooked meal nearby. It was really a home-cooked meal. It was a small restaurant that was not much better than a food stall. Four dishes and a bottle of wine cost Shi Lei less than 200 yuan in total.
But Huo Chengdong ate with great satisfaction. Shi Lei understood that at Huo Chengdong's level, there was no need to decorate the crown with splendor.
Later, Shi Lei sent Huo Chengdong back to the hotel and returned to the apartment, but did not see Song Miaomiao.
After calling and asking, she found out that Song Miaomiao was in her own apartment. Shi Lei went upstairs and knocked on Song Miaomiao's door.
Song Miaomiao seemed to still have some resistance to Shi Lei, but it was not particularly obvious. She still seemed a bit depressed.
"Tomorrow is Mr. Bai's birthday party. Can you accompany me to it?" Shi Lei asked.
Song Miaomiao raised her head, sneered, and said, "At this time, I am probably the most unwelcome guest in the Bai family, right?"
Shi Lei hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll ask my godmother what she means, but I don't think there will be any problem."
Song Miaomiao rolled her eyes and was noncommittal.
Shi Lei sent a WeChat message to Chen Yanu and asked her if it would be inconvenient if he took Song Miaomiao to attend Bai Lao's birthday party.
Chen Yanu quickly replied - I may not have seen Miaomiao for a long time, but this girl is actually pretty good.
This was an agreement. To be on the safe side, Shi Lei said something - Do you want to ask Bai Lao what he meant?
——My father has long passed the age where the saint says he can follow his heart's desires, so there is no need to ask.
Shi Lei thought for a while and replied - Okay, godmother, you can rest early and I will take Miaomiao there tomorrow afternoon.
Then, Shi Lei put away his phone, took Song Miaomiao's hand, and said, "Godmother said it's okay."
Song Miaomiao was slightly surprised, and she said stubbornly: "Shouldn't everyone take a detour when they see me now?"
Shi Lei looked at her expression and felt a little distressed. He gently pulled her into his arms and whispered in her ear: "There are so many detours. It's true that the world is in trouble, but not everyone is like this." so."
Song Miaomiao pushed Shi Lei away, stared into his eyes coldly, and said, "Do you think it is a good thing for you that I fell into the dust? You finally don't have to worry about my family. I no longer have a background that makes you afraid... …”
Shi Lei looked at Song Miaomiao in astonishment, not knowing why she said such a sentence. He stared at the woman in front of him who had long hair and was already close to him, feeling a little strange for no reason.
Shi Lei knew that this was due to the sudden change and Song Miaomiao's mentality was somewhat unbalanced. His only emotion was distress, not anger or humiliation.
Seemingly infected by Shi Lei's expression, Song Miaomiao realized that she shouldn't treat Shi Lei like this. She suddenly hugged Shi Lei and whispered: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I just..."
Shi Lei patted Song Miaomiao's back gently and said nothing.
After a while, Song Miaomiao kissed Shi Lei's lips and put a sentence into his mouth.
"Like a fish that knows whether it is warm or cold when drinking water. I will go with you tomorrow."
Shi Lei responded to Song Miaomiao's kiss, but he had complicated thoughts in his mind.
"I'm really sorry..." After a long time, Song Miaomiao said to Shi Lei again, "You know, I always want to be strong, and I really can't accept it... Grandpa is gone, and there is no news about my father and mother."
Shi Lei stroked Song Miaomiao's long hair and said, "I said they will be fine."
Song Miaomiao blinked, looked at Shi Lei, and said, "I only have you now, you must not lie to me again."
"No, you don't just have me. Xingyue also cares about you, and Wei Qing also called. Although Yao Er didn't say anything, I can tell that he also hopes that you will still be the domineering Shui Ye before. Still. There are many people. This world is not as philistine as you think. Godmother also said that she hasn’t seen you for a long time and said that you are actually pretty good. Brother Yu didn’t mean to look down on you that day..."
Song Miaomiao fell silent. After a long time, her pupils seemed to have a little more energy.
"Shi Lei, I want..." Song Miaomiao gently touched Shi Lei's chest and said a little shyly.
Shi Lei gently laid Song Miaomiao down on the bed, leaned over, kissed her, and unbuttoned all the buttons on her body...
…
No longer intense, but much more tender.
The rhythm is slow, but it is more deeply rooted in people's hearts.
The two of them abandoned their armor almost at the same time and hugged each other tightly.
Before going to bed, Shi Lei said to Song Miaomiao: "Tomorrow, there may be some arrogance. You just need to step on it and fight back like before..."
Song Miaomiao nodded slightly, but was not sure whether she could do it.
After waking up, Shi Lei took Song Miaomiao to Deji to pick out a brand new dress. Then, he held Song Miaomiao's hand and drove to Bai Lao's house by Baishui Lake.
Fortunately, the delivery was successfully completed before four o'clock.
