Zhuang Tingyun looked at the food in the thermos. It was simple, just Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles.
He didn't know how the soup was made, but the moment he opened the thermos just now, the rich aroma made him almost think that it contained Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
But he hadn't eaten all day, and to be honest, he was a little hungry.
Taking the chopsticks from his daughter, Zhuang Tingyun started to sip.
"Huff, huff." The sound of Daodao swallowing food made everyone in the conference room swallow their saliva. Rice noodles, why do they smell so good?
Seeing how enthusiastically Zhuang Tingyun was eating, they even suspected whether something was added to the rice noodles. It was really tempting!
Hearing Zhuang Lihua's words, Zhuang Tingyun stopped and looked at him, then straightened the thermos bucket, poured out the rice noodles, and chewed them slowly in small bites.
Everyone: ...
You are such a dog!
...
...
However, they only dared to think about this in their hearts and did not dare to say it out loud.
Zhuang Lihua's eyebrows twitched twice, "Eat, eat, eat, you'll be stuffed to death!"
Zhuang Tingyun sneered, "It's better than some people starving to death."
He slowly finished a bucket of rice noodles and drank a few sips of soup. What should have taken him five minutes to finish took him fifty minutes.
All the shareholders in the conference room cursed Zhuang Lihua in their hearts. It was all his fault. If he hadn't said something early in the morning about working for everyone's future benefits, why would they have come here to suffer such humiliation!
"What did you want to say?"
Zhuang Lihua suppressed his anger and said, "I can sign, but you still have to give me an explanation about those three factories."
Zhuang Tingyun pushed the contract in front of him and said, "Sign it first."
Zhuang Lihua noticed the eager eyes around him and signed his name with determination.
His son Zhuang Chunyu also followed suit and signed his name.
"I will give you an explanation within three days!"
"If I can't give it to you, I'll quit!"
Zhuang Tingyun raised three fingers. During these three days, he was giving answers to the many shareholders in front of him, and also forcing himself.
Of course, he was also confident that he could find what he wanted within three days, but he felt that the next three days would be very exciting.
Some people may not be able to control themselves and will resort to desperate measures. After all, if they don’t do it now, they will never have another chance in the future!
"Everyone remember, President Zhuang said he would give us an explanation in three days!" Zhuang Lihua laughed. He really thought that they were not prepared at all. They delayed with him for so long just to lower his vigilance and make him think that they had no other way.
Many shareholders remained silent. They had just been troubled by Zhuang Tingyun and did not want to go against him again.
At least before Zhuang Lihua comes up with something substantial that can hurt Zhuang Tingyun, they will never be used as guns in the hands of someone else again.
"The meeting is adjourned." Zhuang Tingyun took the thermos bucket and walked out of the meeting room with his daughter.
Many shareholders behind him waited until he was far away before leaving one after another.
The smile on Zhuang Lihua's face had not yet faded, "Stop!"
Do these guys know that because of their non-cooperation, he feels like a clown.
However, no one paid attention to him...
Everyone seemed not to have heard him, or rather automatically ignored his words, and continued to leave the meeting room and go home.
"Thank you, ma'am, for what happened tonight." Zhuang Tingyun, Yun Qianran and the three babies stood in front of the villa.
He really wanted to ask why Yun Qianran came here.
"I'm not helping you. My daughter is worried about your safety and I don't want her to be sad." Yun Qianran shook her head.
Zhuang Tingyun agreed with her, "Anyway, Madam has helped me a lot."
"So how are you going to thank me?" Yun Qianran asked back. She actually wanted to say that she should give her daughter to her, but after thinking for a long time, she still didn't dare to speak.
"What does Madam want?" Zhuang Tingyun looked at her with a smile.
"I want your...daughter." Yun Qianran said bluntly.
"No, Xiao Nuan grew up with me and can't live without me." Zhuang Tingyun refused.
"Why are you asking?" Yun Qianran rolled her eyes, "Come on, baby, let's go back to sleep."
She brought the three babies into the villa. Zhuang Tingyun remembered what his grandmother said and took the initiative to follow them. "Madam has completely offended the people of the second house tonight. I think I need to stay and protect your safety."
"Get lost!" Yun Qianran turned around and kicked him, "Who wants your protection?"
"Yibao, Jinbao and Nuanbao." Zhuang Tingyun replied as if it was a matter of fact.
Yun Qianran raised her eyebrows, "I can protect my baby myself, I dare not trouble you!"
"Madam, why do you have to be so formal? Your treasure is my treasure." Zhuang Tingyun looked at Yibao and Jinbao deeply.
He didn't dare to say anything about his two sons, but the daughter was definitely his!
Zhuang Xiaonuan watched the two bickering eagerly, afraid that Yun Qianran would push her back, and said pitifully, "Xiaonuan wants to sleep with mommy."
"Then Daddy will accompany your two brothers." Zhuang Tingyun took Yibao and Jinbao away, "Tell Daddy where your room is."
The two babies were excited and pulled him back to their bedroom.
Looking at the heavily closed bedroom door, Yun Qianran laughed and scolded, "I have raised you for so many years in vain!"
Zhuang Xiaonuan thought it was fun, so she pulled her back to the master bedroom, "Mom, let's go to bed too."
They both took their children to bed. The next day, Zhuang Tingyun did not go to the company, and Yun Qianran did not send the three babies to school.
"Today is Saturday, where are we going to play, mom?"
"We've grown mushrooms from staying at home all day, mom, please take us out shopping."
Three babies were pestering Yun Qianran.
But Yun Qianran's eyes were on Zhuang Tingyun. "You only have three days. Have you figured out what to do?"
"I have some ideas, but I just need time to implement them." Zhuang Tingyun had a faint thought between his brows, "Nuanbao, you just play with your mother today, and I will accompany you after your father is done with his work."
"Okay, Dad." Zhuang Xiaonuan pouted. She remembered what her father said to Zhuang Lihua in the meeting room of Zhuang Group last night.
What Dad needs most right now is time, and she really shouldn't delay him.
"Good boy, Nuanbao." Zhuang Tingyun rubbed her head.
"Dad isn't going." Yibao felt a little disappointed. What's the point if Zhuang Tingyun doesn't go to play with them?
"Dad will be busy for two days." Zhuang Tingyun explained to them patiently.
"Then Dad, when you're done with your work this time, you have to spend more time with us." Yi Bao's eyes swept towards Yun Qianran beside him from time to time. Although he didn't say it explicitly, Zhuang Tingyun also understood that he should spend more time with their mother!
"Don't worry, it will happen." Zhuang Tingyun gave the two brothers a hug, turned around and walked out of the villa.
Not to mention the chemical raw material factory and the medical device factory, as for problems like overdue payment, he can just go to their door to collect the debt. He doesn't believe that anyone would dare not give him this face.
It’s just that the poor quality fabrics produced by the fabric factory are a bit troublesome. Who on earth was so idle as to take away the other half of the account?
Is it Zhuang Lihua and his son's men, or some enemy who came specifically to disgust him?
Zhuang Tingyun was unsure of the other party's origins, so he planned to search for information on the Black Network Alliance.
He returned to the company, turned on his computer and went to the Black Network Alliance homepage.
The simplest and most direct way is to offer a high reward!
And it’s also the most efficient for him.
After all, the thing he has the most is money!
Soon, a bounty of 200 million yuan became popular throughout the entire black network alliance.
Because Zhuang Tingyun was not going with them, Yibao and Jinbao were complaining and not wanting to go out to play, and were surfing the Internet in the bedroom with Nuanbao.
"Brother Yi, this black network alliance looks so powerful that someone even issued a bounty of 200 million." Nuanbao suddenly pointed at a corner of the computer screen and exclaimed.
"What?" Yibao looked in the direction of her finger, and sure enough, he saw a 200 million bounty mission pop up.
Curious, he clicked on it and saw the words: "Looking for half a roll of bills from a cloth factory in the northwest suburbs of Huaguo'an City three days ago. The reward is 200 million."
Cloth factory, what cloth factory?
Yibao's eyes rolled around. Putting aside the cloth factory, the two words "Hua Guo'an City" successfully aroused his interest. Isn't this where they are?
In the northwest suburbs of the cloth factory, Yibao opened the map and began to search for the Ancheng Weaving Factory, the manager Zhuang Chunyu!
Zhuang family!
And the person who sent the message is Zhuang Lihua's son who is at odds with his father, so it is obvious who sent the message.
But why did Dad look for the bill, and half a roll of bill at that?
Could it be that Dad has half and the other half is lost?
Then who will have the other half?
Countless images flashed in Yibao's mind, "In mom's hands!"
He suddenly remembered that his mother was also looking for a way to deal with the old house a few days ago.
He glanced at his mother's computer at that time, and the name of Ancheng Weaving Factory seemed to be on it.
At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and he finally decided to let his mother give the things to his father herself.
There was a bounty of 200 million, so he just clicked to accept the task.
When Zhuang Tingyun received the message, he was stunned. Someone answered the call so quickly?
Could it be that the other party knew that he was looking for that thing and had been waiting for him?
Knowing this possibility, he was speechless.
Although I am not short of money, I feel very uncomfortable about being taken advantage of.
He waited quietly in front of the computer, and soon saw someone coming to chat privately.
"How do you trade?"
After seeing this message, Zhuang Tingyun was silent for a few seconds before replying, "Where are you?"
Is it such a coincidence that the other party is also in Ancheng?
"Don't worry about that. I just want to ask you how you want to trade." Yibao asked again.
Zhuang Tingyun sneered, finding it quite interesting.
You're waiting for him to post a bounty, but you don't want to meet him?
"After all, it's something worth two hundred million. I think it's necessary to trade face to face." Zhuang Tingyun replied.
"Okay, tell me a time and place." Yibao didn't expect that he would actually take the initiative to propose a meeting, which saved him the effort of thinking of an excuse.
Zhuang Tingyun sat up straight abruptly. So straightforward?
However, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was fishy. "Eight o'clock tonight?"
"Location." Yibao continued to ask.
Zhuang Tingyun's breathing was slightly rapid. "Lingyun Hotel, private room number two in the seafood restaurant on the fifth floor."
"Wait." Yibao replied indifferently.
However, after replying, he immediately cleared all his information.
When Zhuang Tingyun saw the two words "wait", he finally couldn't hold back and tracked Yibao's IP address.
It’s just a pity that the Yibao, which had anticipated this possibility, didn’t leave any trace at all.
Zhuang Tingyun narrowed his eyes slightly. Familiar person, the person opposite him is definitely an acquaintance!
I just don't know whether they are friends or enemies.
"Mom, let's go for a seafood dinner tonight." After turning off the computer, Yibao rushed out and started to persuade Yun Qianran.
Yun Qianran was puzzled, "Why do you want to eat seafood again?"
She remembered that it had only been a few days since she last ate it.
"I just want to eat it." Yibao's eyes rolled, and he immediately pulled out the warm treasure, "Actually, it was my sister who wanted to eat it, so I told mom secretly, mom, don't tell my sister."
"Really?" Yun Qianran's heart moved. If it was her daughter, "Where would she like to eat?"
Yibao was delighted. It turned out that his sister's name was useful. "The seafood restaurant on the fifth floor of Lingyun Hotel."
"My sister has already booked a private room online. We can just go there tonight."
Yun Qianran was helpless, "I really can't do anything about you."
"Thank you, Mom." Yibao hugged her.
"Go ahead." Yun Qianran waved her hand and asked him to continue playing with his sister.
Soon it was eight o'clock in the evening, and Yun Qianran arrived with her three babies.
"Box 2 of the Seafood Hall on the fifth floor."
Sure enough, after Yun Qianran told the waiter the name of the box, the other party took them to the box.
This scene caught her eye, and she firmly believed that Nuanbao wanted to eat seafood so much that he booked a seat in advance.
However, just as the four of them sat in, Zhuang Tingyun, who had been hiding in a far corner and watching, stood up in shock, "That is..."
There was a flash of excitement in his eyes, Yun Qianran!
So the person who contacted him during the day was actually her?
He said who would go against him like this, so that's it.
Zhuang Tingyun straightened his clothes, put a smile on his face, stood up and walked towards box number two.
In the private room, Yun Qianran was looking at the menu, "Baby, why don't you order food while you're booking the room?"
She didn't blame them, she just felt that if they came to order food now, they would have to wait a while, and what would happen if her three babies were hungry.
"Call the waiter in, that's all." Yun Qianran took the drawn menu and rang the bell to call the waiter.
"Click." The sound of the box door lock opening.
Yun Qianran looked up quickly, "So fast?"
This speed is just for waiting outside the door.
However, when she saw the person coming in clearly, she was so shocked that she stood up and asked, "Why is it you?"
A trace of surprise flashed across Zhuang Tingyun's eyes, "Why can't it be me?"
Wait, Zhuang Tingyun slapped his forehead, he suddenly remembered that the Black Network Alliance issued the bounty in an anonymous state, it was normal that the other party didn't know who he was.
Yun Qianran pursed her lips and tilted her head, "Are you investigating factory information in the hotel?"
"Yes!" Zhuang Tingyun nodded. She knew that she came here just to buy back the other half of the bill from her.
At this moment, Zhuang Tingyun no longer felt the disgust of being schemed against by an acquaintance.
If his wife asked for money, he would give her not only 200 million but even 2 billion!
"The clue is actually in Lingyun Hotel, amazing." Yun Qianran sighed and looked behind him, "Why haven't you come yet?"
"Who are you waiting for, Madam?" Zhuang Tingyun was curious.
Yun Qianran raised the ordering menu in her hand and said, "Wait for the waiter."
Zhuang Tingyun burst out laughing. As expected of her wife, she never forgot to eat.
Yun Qianran understood his look and was speechless for a moment, "Don't look at me like that, it's Nuanbao and the others who want to eat seafood."
Zhuang Tingyun smiled meaningfully, "Madam, you don't need to explain."
He grabbed the order menu, turned around and walked out, "Madam, wait a moment, I'll ask someone to cook it."
With him, the food can be served at least twice as fast!
Yun Qianran didn't bother to be polite with him, "Remember to bring back some drinks."
If you haven't eaten anything, it's a good idea to drink some water to fill your stomach.
"Mom is stupid. It doesn't make sense to drink water before eating out." Yibao muttered in a low voice.
How can I eat anything if I’m full of water?
Yun Qianran's forehead was covered with black lines, "You guys are so smart, why don't you order the dishes first."
Yibao blinked. Could he say that he didn’t book this box?
"All the dishes will be served in ten minutes." Suddenly, Zhuang Tingyun pushed open the door of the private room and walked in again.
Seeing his figure, Yibao's eyes lit up and he hurriedly changed the conflict, "It's all Dad's fault. It's none of our business."
"Why blame me?" Zhuang Tingyun didn't understand.
"Dad, why didn't you order some dishes after booking the private room?" Yibao stared at him.
Zhuang Tingyun came back to his senses and realized that he didn't know that the other party was them at the beginning.
I originally thought it might be an enemy, but if I had known it was Yun Qianran, let alone ordering food, the signature dishes of Lingyun Hotel would have definitely filled the table in front of me.
"Dad, come and sit here." After Yi Bao transferred the shield and spear, he immediately stood up and asked Zhuang Tingyun to sit in his seat with Yun Qianran.
Zhuang Tingyun gave him a sensible look and walked up to Yun Qianran. "Madam, if you want to eat seafood next time, just tell me directly."
Yun Qianran has been looking at Yibao, this...
People just helped you order a dish, and you directly sold your own mother as a reward. That's not how you get away with being so generous!
Yibao’s eyes looked at the nose, and the nose looked at the heart, and he just pretended not to see it.
Yun Qianran was speechless and could only deal with Zhuang Tingyun, "You should just go and look for clues!"
This guy, not only is he eating their food, but he is also acting like the master.
"I'll go find her after I have dinner with my wife." Zhuang Tingyun looked her up and down. Since the person who asked him out was Yun Qianran, where were her things?
Half a book of bills, this lightly packed thing, could it be in her villa?
That’s great. I can go get it directly after dinner.
It seemed like he had a reason to go home with her openly.
“Bang!”
Just as his thoughts were in turmoil, there was a sudden knock on the door, "Master Ting, your food is here."
"Come in!"
The door of the box opened, and the hotel manager was the first to bow to them, "Master Ting, thank you for waiting. Guests, please wait. This dinner tonight is our hotel's treat. I hope Master Ting and guests will forgive us!"
Yun Qianran frowned, "No need."
It’s not like they can’t afford to eat, so why should we treat them?
The hotel manager saw her impatient expression and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay."
Whether you are invited or not, just go along with what she says and don’t make her angry.
"Hurry, serve the food to Mr. Ting and the guests." The manager immediately ordered the waiter who was pushing the food cart to start.
Soon, a table full of seafood was served.
The manager personally opened the drinks for the two of them, bowed and left, "Master Ting, enjoy your meal."
After they all left, Yun Qianran raised her eyebrows and asked, "What does this guy mean by calling you all the time?"
It was obviously her baby who booked the box, so why didn't she consider the owner's mood?
Zhuang Tingyun's face darkened slightly, and even his tone became colder unconsciously, "I'll ask them to come and apologize to the Madam."
"They even dare to ignore my wife. I don't think they want to keep this hotel open anymore!"
Yun Qianran watched him stand up and was about to leave, and hurriedly said, "Wait, if you leave like this, aren't you telling them that I'm a stingy person?"
Zhuang Tingyun had a hint of anger between his brows. "What stingy are you talking about? It's obviously them who are blind!"
Yun Qianran locked her eyes on him, "Why are you so angry?"
She curled her lips and picked up a piece of king crab in front of her, "Nuanbao, come here, let's eat first."
"Okay, mom." Zhuang Xiaonuan moved closer to her.
"How can we only eat seafood? Madam, please have some wine." Zhuang Tingyun held the wine glass.
Yun Qianran's eyes showed vigilance, "What do you want to do?"
This guy wants to get her drunk again?
She admitted that it might be because of the poison that the Chu brothers and sisters had inflicted upon her back then. Even though she later met her master and recovered after treatment, her body still had some sequelae, such as being unable to tolerate alcohol.
This guy has now spotted her flaw!
"This wine is boiled with ginger and contains almost no alcohol. It is best drunk with seafood." Zhuang Tingyun shook the red wine glass.
Yun Qianran raised her eyebrows, "You are looking down on me."
Good guy, he specifically told her there was no alcohol, what does that mean!
"I didn't!" Zhuang Tingyun quickly denied, "I just wanted to say that without alcohol, Yibao and the others could drink it to dispel the cold and nourish the stomach."
"Then Dad, pour us a cup." Yibao hurried to help him out.
"Tsk!" Yun Qianran smacked her lips. This was really his caring leather coat!
Zhuang Tingyun quickly poured it for the three babies, "Madam, please."
Yun Qianran did not refuse this time. She took a sip of the red wine and savored it carefully: "It tastes really good."
The point is that you can hardly taste the alcohol, so it shouldn't be intoxicating?
"Madam, please take a rest. I'll help Nuanbao peel the crabs." Seeing that she was busy, Zhuang Tingyun offered to help.
"No, just see what Yibao and Jinbao want to eat."
Zhuang Tingyun turned his eyes away, and the two babies immediately replied, "Dad, we are eating by ourselves, but Mommy seems to have not eaten anything."
Zhuang Tingyun suddenly realized that he should peel crabs for Yun Qianran!
Picking up the king crab closest to him, Zhuang Tingyun used the professional tools prepared by the hotel to knock open one of its large claws, took out the snow-white tender meat inside, and fed it to Yun Qianran's mouth, "Madam, open your mouth."
Yun Qianran was full of questions, "Eat your own food!"
"Then Madam, please take care of yourself first. Nuanbao is not a child." Zhuang Tingyun replied with a smile.
Yun Qianran looked at her daughter in front of her, feeling conflicted. How could she give up such a good opportunity to get closer to her daughter?
In desperation, she bit the crab meat that Zhuang Tingyun fed her, and bit his two fingers into her mouth as well.
"hiss!"
Feeling a slight pain in his fingers, Zhuang Tingyun took a breath of cold air.
Yun Qianran's eyes showed a hint of provocation, "Help me peel a little green dragon."
"Madam, wait a moment." Zhuang Tingyun started to peel the shells with a smile on his face.
Small green dragons are much easier to peel than king crabs. Zhuang Tingyun held up the small green dragon meat and fed it to her mouth, "Madam, please."
Yun Qianran bit him without hesitation and took his finger into her mouth.
Feeling the warmth and wetness, Zhuang Tingyun felt something special in his heart, "Madam, be gentle."
However, it would have been fine if he didn't speak. As soon as he opened his mouth, Yun Qianran could clearly hear that there was something wrong with his tone.
Although he looked in pain on the surface, his tone was actually full of comfort!
Yun Qianran shuddered. Is this guy shaking? M?
Although she was not sure, she did not bite his fingers intentionally again, which made Zhuang Tingyun feel lost in his heart.
"Babble, babble." Yibao ate while observing the expressions of his father and mother.
He suddenly became curious. Shouldn't the three of them be here? They were just like three electric light bulbs, and they were very hot at that!
"I'm full!" Yibao put down his bowl and chopsticks and winked at Jinbao and Nuanbao.
The two babies understood and quickly said, "Mom, we are full too."
Yun Qianran thought for a moment, "Are you sure?"
"Yeah, yeah!" The three babies kept nodding.
"Then let's go home." She put down her bowl and chopsticks and prepared to get up.
"No, mom, there are still a lot of delicious food left."
"And mom, you've been feeding your sister, you should eat something too."
Yibao pulled her back to the chair and sat her down, then took her brother and sister out of the box, "My brother and sister and I are going to play outside, mom, you guys eat first."
Bang!
Yibao slammed the door shut, not giving Yun Qianran any chance to retort.
Yun Qianran looked at the door in front of her, stunned for a moment. These three guys definitely did it on purpose!
"Madam, come on, let's eat too." Zhuang Tingyun finally picked up the chopsticks.
Yun Qianran looked at the meat piling up in the bowl and hurriedly stopped him, "Stop! I can't eat so much."
Who does this guy think she is? He was clearly feeding her and she was eating the whole time, didn’t he see it?
"Madam, if you feel you can't eat it, you can consider giving it to me." Zhuang Tingyun said seriously.
"Hmm?" Yun Qianran pushed the bowl in front of him and said, "Here you go."
Zhuang Tingyun shook his head, "No."
Yun Qianran frowned with impatience, "Didn't you want it?"
Zhuang Tingyun put down his chopsticks, wiped his hands, turned his head and stared at her deeply, "I want Madam to feed me."
Yun Qianran looked at him for half a second, then smiled and said, "Okay."
She picked up a piece of fried golden and crispy swordfish meat and said, "Open your mouth."
Zhuang Tingyun chuckled and opened his mouth, but when the swordfish meat was about to fall into his mouth, Yun Qianran suddenly turned the chopsticks and swallowed the meat in one bite.
"Mmm, it smells really good."
"That's my flesh!" Zhuang Tingyun pretended to be unwilling.
Yun Qianran raised her eyebrows sleepily and chewed even faster, as if she was challenging him and asking him what he could do to her.
"Gudong!"
Zhuang Tingyun pinched her chin and suddenly came close to her. "Madam ate my flesh, so I can only eat Madam."
"Otherwise, Madam wouldn't have the heart to let me go hungry."
Yun Qianran opened her beautiful eyes wide, looking at the thin lips getting closer and closer to her, and gradually opened her eyes, "You..."
Before she could utter a few words, those thin and cold lips pressed against hers.
Zhuang Tingyun lowered his head and kissed her soft red lips fiercely, greedily demanding.
After several twists and turns, a touch of flexible softness emerged from his mouth and slid between her lips and teeth.
He leaned forward, but still felt it was not enough, so he stretched out a hand to grasp her slender waist and pressed her hard into his arms.
Yun Qianran was caught off guard and suddenly crashed into his arms in an extremely embarrassing posture.
Zhuang Tingyun lowered his head and kissed her harder and more passionately. Yun Qianran's eyes became blurry and she hooked her arms around his neck and began to respond.
Zhuang Tingyun also held her waist with one hand and protected the back of her head with the other. He gently and slowly placed her on the chair behind him, and as she lay down, he leaned over and pressed on her.
