Chapter 408: Meeting
Huo Xilin opened the door, got out of the car, and walked towards Xu Qingsui.
The sun came out today and the whole city was covered in snow, looking like a silver-clad city.
The white snow reflected the sunlight, and Xu Qingsui couldn't help but squint his eyes, feeling that the sunlight was very dazzling.
Suddenly, a figure helped her block the sun. Xu Qingsui looked up in confusion, only to find that Huo Xilin had come to her side without her knowing when.
The two got into the car together, and Huo Xilin took the lead in saying, "The news matter has been resolved, don't worry."
Xu Qingsui nodded. She knew that the ability of the Huo Group's public relations department was not exaggerated. When she went out, she deliberately checked the news again and found that all the events related to Huo Xilin had been removed, as if they had never been posted or discussed at all.
Seeing that Xu Qingsui was not in a good mood, Huo Xilin realized that she must have been affected by the news this morning.
"What do you want to eat?" Huo Xilin asked.
"It's all right. Just eat something at noon. I have to rush back to work after eating. Now is a critical moment and I can't waste too much time." Xu Qingsui said calmly to Huo Xilin.
"Okay, let's have Chinese food." Huo Xilin chose a nearby Chinese restaurant and took Xu Qingsui to eat some stir-fried dishes.
After eating, Huo Xilin originally wanted to spend more time with her, but she was too anxious and he had no choice but to send her back reluctantly.
When Xu Qingsui got off the car, Huo Xilin hurriedly grabbed her hand.
Xu Qingsui turned her head in confusion, but before she could react, Huo Xilin's lips had already touched hers. Unlike the previous passionate kisses, this time it was just a light kiss, like a dragonfly touching the water. Huo Xilin let go of her and rested his forehead against hers. The two of them were so close that they could even feel each other's breathing clearly.
Huo Xilin whispered, "I will deal with the matter between Yan Xisui and me as soon as possible. I won't let her affect us, let alone you!"
His tone was so gentle, yet exceptionally firm.
Xu Qingsui felt Huo Xilin's sincerity. Unlike her previous suspicions, this time she believed him very much.
She smiled and nodded, giving him a look of despair: "I believe you, and I am waiting for the day when you confess to me."
Huo Xilin burst out laughing. She had never been someone who could be fooled, and she didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
Be honest...
The secret that has been hidden for so many years has caused countless misunderstandings between the two. Should it really be revealed?
He couldn't bear to see her sad, and he couldn't bear to see her live in guilt all her life.
Huo Xilin did not directly answer Xu Qingsui's question, but said: "I will pick you up from get off work in the evening. If you get off work early, I will personally cook your favorite food. If you get off work late, we will go out to eat."
Xu Qingsui nodded, then opened the door and got out of the car, waved to him, and walked into the museum without looking back.
Huo Xilin drove away only after Xu Qingsui was no longer visible.
After finishing the company's work in the afternoon, Qin Fang took the initiative to call: "Are you free to come out for a drink?"
"I have quit drinking." Huo Xilin said.
Qin Fang raised his eyebrows, knowing what Huo Xilin meant, so he said smugly: "I have also quit drinking. I meant to ask you to come out for a cup of tea. Did you misunderstand?"
Huo Xilin said sarcastically, "Is it possible that Mr. Qin doesn't understand my obvious refusal?"
Qin Fang was speechless, his mouth twitched and he looked a little embarrassed, but he adjusted his attitude and said, "Mr. Huo, are you sure? Aren't you curious about Miss Yan's next move?"
Huo Xilin hesitated for a moment and asked, "Where is it?"
"I'll wait for you at the old place." Qin Fang said and hung up the phone.
Since Huo Xilin asked the name of the place, he wouldn't worry that he wouldn't come.
Huo Xilin sent a message to Xu Qingsui, asking her to call him after work. Coincidentally, the place where he had an appointment with Qin Fang was very close to Xu Qingsui's workplace, so it would be convenient for him to go and pick her up when Xu Qingsui contacted him.
"Senior Sister Xu, there are still sixteen samples left to be colored. Do we need to complete one more tonight?" After Tang Cheng finished speaking, he couldn't help but yawn.
Xu Qingsui saw that he was in poor condition, with heavy dark circles under his eyes, and it was obvious that he did not get enough rest.
Because of the deadline, the two of them worked overtime continuously, sometimes getting off work very late, so it was normal that they did not get enough rest.
It takes several hours to finish coloring a painting. If I do another one, it will be early in the morning when I get off work.
"Get off work early today and go home to have a good rest." Xu Qingsui said to Tang Cheng.
"Senior Sister Xu, I can persist. I know you are eager to see the results of this batch of samples. If we can complete one more piece a day, we can finish it earlier."
Xu Qingsui smiled and said to Tang Cheng patiently and kindly, "You have been in this business for many years. You should understand that in our business, we cannot see the effect in a hurry. The right time, right place and right people are all indispensable. Although technology is advanced now and the temperature can be controlled artificially, subtle changes will also have a great impact on the final formation of color. The most difficult part of restoration is aging, which is like walking at night. Luck is very important."
Tang Cheng nodded thoughtfully: "Senior Sister Xu, you are right, we can't be impatient."
"Okay, pack up and get off work, and have a good rest. Only when you are in good spirits can you concentrate at work, and nothing unexpected will happen, right?"
"Yeah!" The longer Tang Cheng spent with Xu Qingsui, the more he admired this senior sister.
When it comes to attitudes towards restoration, she and her cousin Xu Wanshan are sometimes really similar, steady and determined. No matter how many times they fail, they never get discouraged. They analyze the reasons and keep trying again until they finally get the desired results.
There is so much he needs to learn from them, not just the restoration skills, but also the mentality and the firm attitude towards this career.
After changing out of her work clothes, Xu Qingsui took out her mobile phone from her pocket and saw the message sent to her by Huo Xilin.
Have tea with Qin Fang?
Can the two of them really sit down and drink tea in peace?
Xu Qingsui imagined the scene and found it incredible.
However, if it is about discussing company cooperation, everyone should try to restrain themselves. After all, businessmen value profit and will try every means to get the upper hand from the other party. They will not act on impulse as in the past.
As the old saying goes, there are no eternal friends, nor eternal enemies, only eternal interests. This saying is very appropriate for these two people.
