Chapter 177 Arrangements
This lunch box was prepared by him personally. It contained nutritious soup that he specially cooked, as well as some of Zhao Weiqing's favorite home-cooked dishes.
He came to Su City this time, on the one hand, to express his gratitude, and on the other hand, out of concern for Zhao Weiqing, he took the time to come and see this long-time friend.
Zhao Weiqing opened the lid of the food box, took out a bowl of rice, and invited Song Xiaochen to sit down and eat together.
Qin Che watched silently from the side, his eyes fixed on Zhao Weiqing, his brows slightly furrowed.
He found that the other person had obviously lost weight and looked not very good, which was obviously due to the recent excessive stress and poor sleep and rest schedule.
After studying it for a while, he asked, "When do you plan to return to Shanghai?"
Zhao Weiqing chewed his rice in silence for several seconds before he spoke slowly, "Maybe later. Things here aren't completely settled yet."
"Let me remind you," Qin Che said in a deep voice, "that girl has been surrounded by quite a few people lately. If you really care about her, you have to hurry up and have a sense of urgency."
The girl Qin Che was talking about was naturally Shen Yan.
He knew that Zhao Weiqing liked her, but their relationship was always lukewarm.
Zhao Weiqing nodded, his eyes a little complicated, "I've heard that too. Her current situation is a bit complicated."
Then he continued, "I have some understanding of Chen Yan's general thinking. Currently, her main energy is all devoted to making money."
"She's not serious about dating."
His tone was slow, yet it carried a hint of reluctance and worry.
"She is a realistic person and knows what she wants, but when it comes to emotional issues, she becomes even more evasive."
"If she really wants to fall in love, it's probably just an arranged relationship, not a decision from the heart."
Zhao Weiqing paused for a moment, then a hint of fear appeared in his eyes: "I'm not really worried about other people, but that Third Master makes me feel a little uneasy."
San Ye, whose full name is Mo San, is a young businessman with great strength and influence in the circle.
Not only does he have a strong background, but he is also good at dealing with people, has a wide network of contacts, and has many means at his disposal. He is an extremely difficult person to deal with.
"That Third Master not only has the conditions, but also the means," Zhao Weiqing continued, a hint of anxiety in his tone, "to force her into a relationship she originally didn't want to start."
If Chen Yan really likes the Third Master and is willing to be with him, Zhao Weiqing is willing to bless her.
But what if you were forced?
"If she really likes Mr. San, and they are together, I will sincerely wish them well."
He whispered, a bitterness that was hard to conceal flashing in his eyes, "But if she was forced, I would never agree."
As he said this, he gripped the chopsticks so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
Then, he put down his chopsticks and looked out the window at the twilight, as if to encourage himself, "Brother Qin, when are you going back? I want to go back to Shanghai with you."
Qin Che leaned against the side of the car, his hands behind his waist, puffing out cigarettes while stamping out the butts with his boots. "Tell me, I came here specifically to bring you food. My grandparents insisted I come here, so of course I have to finish it before I go back."
Although Qin Che appears nonchalant on the surface, he is actually very concerned about Zhao Weiqing's affairs and knows a lot about them.
On that day, Qin Che stayed behind, while Song Xiaochen stayed behind to be responsible for the handover and care of the goods. Zhao Weiqing packed his luggage and took a car back to Shanghai with Qin Che.
However, when Zhao Weiqing stood at the door of the apartment building where he lived, his steps inexplicably stopped.
He stood in front of the door, looking up at the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar iron gate, and fell into deep thought.
He didn't go in directly, as if he was still struggling inside, and seemed a little uncertain about something in the future.
Qin Che looked at his back and couldn't help but patted his shoulder. "Come in! What are you doing?"
As he spoke, he pushed Zhao Weiqing and said, "Why are you dawdling? If you want to see her, go see her right away."
Qin Che jokingly said, "It would be better if we held hands and kissed each other, don't waste my meal for free!"
Zhao Weiqing frowned slightly when he heard this, and said with a hint of displeasure in his tone, "Brother Qin, don't keep talking like that. It's not good for her. There's nothing substantial going on between us."
"Okay, stop pretending."
Qin Che glanced at him sideways, a hint of sneer on his lips, "Hey, why are you pretending to be so serious? Do you think I don't understand you?"
After Qin Che finished speaking, he turned around and got into the car, started the engine, and drove away.
Zhao Weiqing was still standing alone at the door, looking in the direction where the car disappeared, standing there for a long time without moving.
He stood there, as if he had a lot of thoughts in his mind, with anticipation, hesitation, and a hint of unspeakable uneasiness in his heart.
Maybe he should just go in and see how she was getting on these days.
But then again, I just saw her yesterday. How could she have changed so much in just one day?
I don’t know if her feet still hurt today. If she gets up to go to the bathroom at night, will there be someone to accompany her and take care of her? Is the hired nanny responsible and dedicated enough?
However, if he suddenly came to her house and asked her questions, it would probably only increase her psychological burden.
Who is he to her now?
A stranger who suddenly showed up at her door and asked questions?
If she was misunderstood and people started talking about some ambiguous relationship between them, wouldn't she be the one who would be hurt the most in the end?
Zhao Weiqing thought about it and finally decided to give up and not go in.
That night, he rushed back to Suzhou without stopping, and at four or five o'clock in the morning of the next day, he hurried back from Suzhou.
He must seize the time and multiply the money he has on hand several times as much as possible, so as not to let her down and be worthy of their goal.
Today is Tuesday. Lin Youfa has made all the arrangements and is preparing for the official shipment.
As for Chen Yan, she still returned to live in the manor.
Because once this batch of goods is shipped, it means that 70% of the payment process must be completed. This is an established rule.
She confirmed with Wei Jie, "Manager Wei, the factory has all the supplies ready and is just waiting for our confirmation before loading and shipping. Should we officially start the payment process now so the factory can continue with subsequent production? Have you submitted your payment request? When will the funds arrive?"
Wei Jie glanced at her calmly, his tone calm, as if he was not anxious at all, "Why are you in a hurry? Just wait."
It's not like she hasn't seen him anxious before.
On other projects, he sometimes wanted to transfer the money immediately, for fear of a minute's delay.
But when it came to the project she was involved in, it started to get delayed.
He did this on purpose, and it was obvious that he didn't want to cooperate.
