Chapter 33 The World of the Rich 4 He lit the cigarette
Before he thought about extending his stay, Shen Ci was in his office looking at the new plan sent by his subordinates.
It's a very serious plan regarding the Shen family's hotel chain.
I don't know why, but when Shen Ci looked at the numbers on the computer, which were accurate to two decimal places, his eyes flickered, and a cunning face exposed under the light appeared on the screen. The beautiful eyebrows were slightly raised, and the plump lips were gently curled up. It looked very innocent, but in fact, the devil's tail behind him had already shaken out of shape in the mirror.
“Boss Shen…”
The assistant who appeared in the office at Shen Ci's call waited for a long time but did not receive any evaluation from the man on this plan. This was not like his boss's usual work efficiency.
The assistant looked up cautiously, and then saw Shen Ci staring at the computer with a frown in deep thought.
"Is this plan not feasible?"
"……No, "
Shen Ci took off his glasses and rubbed his brows, "I was thinking about something else just now."
The man gently placed the gold-rimmed glasses on the table to the side. The sound of the mouse clicking rang out slowly twice. Just as the assistant tightened the documents in his hand and was about to go out to do other work, he suddenly heard Shen Ci say something without any reason.
"Is that room's lease about to expire?"
"...Yes, Mr. Shen, check-out time is in two days."
The assistant who reacted immediately said:
"And the hotel manager said the gentleman staying here hasn't left the house in the past few days. He's canceled all services except for essential dining, and rarely sees anyone."
A good assistant should report all the information he or she knows to the boss immediately after the boss starts talking.
It can be said that ever since Shen Ci asked him to take good care of the people in 3601, no matter how busy he was at work, the assistant would take at least ten minutes every day to understand Mr. 3601's situation.
The reason is that when Shen Ci asks him now, he won’t stammer and be unable to speak!
You know, that was the first little canary their boss raised!
The assistant tightly grasped the documents in his hand, and at the end of the report, he even looked like he wanted to take his brain out to Shen Ci and let him read it himself.
“…”
Shen Ci was silent for a while, "You haven't come out yet?"
"Yes, and he doesn't seem to have any contact with the outside world. Every time the hotel delivers food, the room is completely dark. It's like this for breakfast, lunch, and dinner."
"...I understand. You can leave first."
Shen Ci waved his hand to let the assistant go out first, then raised his eyes to look at the computer screen in front of him.
A small black arrow moved from the upper right corner to the lower left corner. The next second, a boy with a black backpack on his back, wearing washed-out clothes, looking shyly at the camera and smiling shyly appeared on the screen.
This is the investigation report on Song Le'an sent to him by a private detective, which can be said to include all of Song Le'an's experiences in the past twenty years.
This includes how he was admitted to Peking University while working part-time to support his entire family in high school, and then accidentally bumped into Li Yanze who was attending a banquet while working part-time at a hotel. In the end, he was kept by the other party without knowing why, and during that time he also brought his sick mother and his younger siblings who were in school to Beijing.
On the one hand, it is because the medical conditions and education level in Beijing are relatively high, and on the other hand, it is because it is more convenient for him to take care of his family.
At first, she only took care of Song's mother, but after Li Yanze had a car accident, she started running between the two places, and she was happy to do so even if she was despised by men.
To put it simply, the report describes Song Le'an as filial, kind, and very responsible, and more importantly...
Shen Ci turned his gaze to the last line of the report——
"He likes Li Yanze very, very much..."
So she will never leave the man even if he gets into a car accident.
According to a private detective, Li Yanze had a period of mental mania when he had just had the car accident. Everyone who approached him was attacked by him to some extent. Among them, Song Le'an, who visited and took care of him every day, was arguably the one who suffered the most and the most serious injuries.
But even so, Song Le'an did not give up. Later, because Li Yanze didn't like strangers touching him, he even squeezed out time to learn massage.
However, this person who seemed to be extremely infatuated in the report, took the initiative to invite me to support him that night, and even said that I could get a discount...
"Sir, can we help each other?"
"Sir, how are you going to meet people in this state?"
"Sir, would you like to support me? I can give you a discount..."
The boy's playful voice kept echoing in my ears, like an unstoppable spell.
Chen Ci knew very well that if the boy he saw that night was the one in the report, then the moment he left the room, his brain would automatically erase all traces of the other person.
But unfortunately, the boy he met was not her.
The report was filled with photos of Song Le'an, some of him in class, some working part-time, some smiling, some sad... one after another, each one was different, and none of them was the person he wanted to see...
Shen Ci lowered his eyes, opened the drawer and took out a box of unopened cigarettes.
He doesn't usually smoke.
Whether you are in a meeting at your own company or going out to meet partners, the smell of cigarettes on your body will always reduce your image immediately.
Moreover, the nicotine in tobacco can paralyze the human brain. Once you are addicted, there is a risk of addiction.
So, he shouldn't touch it, and he can't touch it.
Light grey smoke slowly rose along with the orange-red sparks. Chen Ci leaned back in his chair, raised his right hand slightly, and watched the smoke rise to the air with his dark eyes, then spread around.
It stained his body and blurred his dark eyes.
Can't.
It shouldn't.
The emotions that were forcibly suppressed are breaking out in another way and growing wildly.
With a slight tremor in his fingertips, Shen Ci placed the unextinguished cigarette into the brand new ashtray next to the computer, then raised his hand and pressed the phone next to him.
"Extend the room for another week."
Shen Ci said, and then added something after thinking of something,
"Prepare a phone of the same model as mine and send it over. Transfer one million to the account of Nebula No. 3 VIP Ward and transfer it from my personal account."
“Okay, Mr. Shen, do you want the remittance form to be anonymous?”
"right."
His fingertips tapped lightly on the table, Shen Ci stared at the cigarette that had already burned most of the cigarette, and finally picked it up and took a puff.
Light gray smoke slowly came out of his mouth, and Shen Ci said lightly: "Tell the hotel that if the person in 3601 wants to reserve a phone number, just give it to him directly."
“…Okay, Mr. Shen.”
He still doesn't like to steal someone else's girlfriend, Shen Ci thought.
But the boy himself said that Li Yanze would soon no longer be his lover.
Chu Sicheng gently stroked his brand new phone with his thumb and reached out to pick up a piece of egg tart from the plate next to him. While eating, he looked at the screen that lit up as soon as the card was inserted. He slightly extended his tongue to lick his lips that were stained with egg liquid, then reached out and clicked to connect.
This was the first call he received since hanging up on Song Leming.
"Hello?" The youthful voice unique to college students came into Li Yanze's ears through the voice hole, reminding him all the time that the call was connected.
Song Le'an answered the phone.
Song Le'an finally answered the phone!
The irritability and depression he had felt over the past few days poured out like a floodgate the moment the call was connected. Li Yanze couldn't even remember what he wanted to say for a moment. It was only after the boy on the other side called out to him several times that he finally found his voice.
"you……"
"Hmm?" The boy's voice seemed full of doubt.
He seemed to have taken the phone away from his ear, and a rustling sound was heard. After a while, Li Yanze heard the boy's voice again with a hint of hesitation.
"Li Yanze?"
"Who else do you think it is?!" Li Yanze frowned, and his rationality was regained in the long silence, along with his anger towards the boy for disappearing without knowing the consequences during this period of time.
The flames in his eyes gradually burned brighter. Li Yanze stared at the three big words "Song Le'an" on the screen, wanting to ask if the other party had had enough of the trouble?!
He thought that if Song Le'an could admit his mistake at this time, he could still forgive the boy because he had taken care of him before, and the hospital could also transfer the money again.
But imagination is beautiful, but reality is——
“Bang!”
Before Li Yanze could speak again, the boy hung up the phone.
He looked straightforward and frank, as if his hesitation in asking his name wasn't because he was afraid of his own outrageous behavior in the past few days, but because he really didn't recognize him...
In just a few days, he couldn't recognize his own voice?!
Li Yanze was so angry that he almost laughed at Chu Sicheng's behavior of hanging up the phone on him.
The thumb pressing on the phone frame suddenly lost its blood and turned pale blue. Li Yanze raised his head and was about to instruct his assistant to go to Song Le'an's school and use the issue of his student status to force him out when his phone screen lit up again.
It’s Song Le’an.
how?
Did you regret hanging up the phone?
Did he know that he was someone he couldn't afford to offend?
Unfortunately, it’s too late!
This time, no matter what the boy said, he would not give money to the hospital again. At the same time, he would also put pressure on the school to increase the punishment for skipping class this time.
After all, if the pet doesn't learn its lesson, then punish it more severely to let it know who is the real master!
Li Yanze looked at the caller ID on the phone screen, sneered, and then slowly answered the call.
He thought the other party was begging for mercy.
I am also prepared to never forgive easily.
However, at the moment the call was connected, what came into his ears along the network cable was not the boy's tearful begging for mercy, but the other party's very casual and indifferent words,
"Li Yanze, our previous contract ends here."
A simple sentence, not a question, but a notification.
He was informing Li Yanze that the contract was invalid.
Li Yanze was speechless for a moment.
Not because I'm too sad.
But because it is too absurd.
It's ridiculous that such a decision was proposed by a boy.
A lower person.
A canary.
How could he say it was over with a pet he just played with in his spare time?!
Li Yanze gripped his phone tightly, as if he was going to crush the screen.
"Song Le'an, do you know what you are talking about?!"
He told himself it was over because he didn't want to survive in Beijing anymore!
Li Yanze moved his lips, wanting to remind the boy not to forget the whole family he supported.
However, just like the first call, the boy had no intention of listening to him and hung up the phone again after notifying him. At this time, the assistant who had been ordered by him to clean up the Song family came over and poured more fuel on the fire.
The assistant said, "Boss Li, I just got the news when I went to the hospital that someone deposited one million into Room 3's account..."
