Chapter 25 It's so hard to drink a sip of water from your house
When I got home, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
Because it is difficult to park near my home, and I have to go to the company later.
Li Nuo took the initiative to ask to get off the car at the side, holding a bunch of things he bought for Li Yan.
"Is it enough to just drop her off here? Brother, can you go up by yourself?" Li Yan asked worriedly as he put the car in an empty gear.
"When I was working part-time, I also came back alone," Li Nuo looked at him speechlessly, "By the way, I want to eat watermelon, buy one for you when you come back."
"Watermelon? I understand. I will buy it." Li Yan nodded.
"Well, let's buy something smaller so we can eat it together tonight."
Li Yan smiled and said, "Okay."
Li Nuo unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door, and was about to get out, but after thinking for a moment, he turned around and said to Qin Xu who was sitting in the back seat: "Thank you for taking me back."
Qin Xu had no expression on his face.
Li Nuo didn't care even though he didn't hear the answer.
"Then see you tonight. Don't forget the watermelon." He reminded Li Yan again.
Just as one foot stepped out of the car, I heard Qin Xu's voice.
"Can I drink the water I didn't get last time today?"
"How is that possible?"
Before Li Nuo opened his mouth, Li Yan immediately refused without any hesitation.
He turned to Li Nuo and said, "Brother, hurry up, it's still quite hot outside."
"Oh oh." Li Nuo got out of the car quickly.
Li Yan turned to Qin Xu and said, "Director, please sit down. We will leave for the company now."
"Wait, I'm really thirsty." Qin Xu stopped him.
"Ah...wait a minute."
Li Nuo put down his things and headed for the nearby canteen.
"Brother," Li Yan also hurriedly got out of the car and told him not to run.
Fortunately, the canteen was not far away, and soon, Li Nuo came back with a few bottles of water.
After knocking on the rear window several times, Qin Xu lowered the window. In front of him was Li Nuo's smiling face and a bottle of mineral water placed in front of him.
"I guess you don't want to drink those drinks, mineral water is okay?"
Li Yan said that just because he didn't want outsiders to enter his house. It seems that Li Nuo was completely wrong.
Holding the bottle of mineral water in his hand, Qin Xu laughed dumbly.
Li Nuo walked over to Li Yan and handed him a bottle of water.
"Drive slower."
"I will. There's not much work left. I'll be back soon. If you want anything else to eat, you can also message me."
Li Yan stretched out his hand and carefully stroked his brother's cheek. His hands, which had done a lot of hard labor, felt a little itchy when they touched the delicate skin, but Li Nuo did not hide. Instead, he tilted his head and rubbed his hand like a cat.
Li Yan's hands and lips were trembling. This was an intimate gesture that his brother would never do before.
Memory......
Is it really necessary to retrieve it?
Rather, it's really great now.
I am in good health and have no problems. Memory is not necessary.
But...Brother will want to regain his memory...
Li Yan stood there, his thoughts racing.
Li Nuo shook his hand, bringing him back to his senses.
"Anyway, I'll be back as soon as possible."
"Yeah," Li Nuo turned his gaze and met Qin Xu who had been looking at this side.
"Thank you very much today, Director Qin."
Qin Xu nodded, climbed up the window, and blocked out the smile.
His hands clenched and unclenched imperceptibly.
Because of Linuo's name.
"director......"
I clearly called Mo Chuan "Brother Mo" before, but now I am the director.
It’s not that I want to be called brother. I usually hear him called “Director” or “Director Qin”.
Why does this title that I'm so used to hearing sound so strange when it comes from Li Nuo's mouth?
Qin Xu thought for a moment, wondering if there was anyone who would call him brother.
The answer is no.
I stayed here with Mo Chuan for three years during high school, and there were people who called me senior.
Since then, I have gone abroad and have basically not communicated in my native language.
After I came back and entered the company, I heard people calling me director all the time.
He thought about it and thought that if Li Nuo looked at him with moist eyes and called him brother, that would be... quite interesting.
After saying goodbye, Li Yan got in the car and started it. He couldn't park here for too long.
Along the way, Li Yan rushed as fast as lightning, gritting his teeth in his heart: Fortunately, I didn't let the wolf into the house.
Don't even think about entering the cozy little house he and his brother live in.
I drove all the way to the company at the highest speed allowed in the city.
Qin Xu got out of the car, glanced at him, and said, "I didn't expect that Secretary Li also has the talent to be a racing driver."
Li Yan smiled modestly, "Thank you for the award."
I cursed in my heart: What a weird person! I really want to punch him.
Qin Xu carried the things to another car, opened it, and put the things he bought today in. This was the car he often used.
The two of them came to Qin Xu's office one after the other. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Secretary Yang with a cold sweat on his face and...
Mo Chuan was called to work overtime and was filled with resentment.
At this moment, Young Master Mo was standing in front of Qin Xu's desk with his arms crossed. He didn't say a word, but just looked at the two of them with a sneer.
Mo Chuan, who usually has a gentle temperament, now shows his angry side, which is quite intimidating.
Unfortunately, the two people who walked in were not ordinary people.
Just ignored him.
Qin Xu turned around and sat on his chair.
Li Yan also started to start his finishing work.
Mo Chuan was so angry that he couldn't vent his anger and could only glare at the culprit.
Qin Xu looked at him calmly: "What's wrong? Are your eyes uncomfortable? Also, have you done what I asked you to do?"
Mo Chuan resisted the urge to roll his eyes and said unhappily, "Not so fast. I'll ask my secretary to investigate."
Mo Chuan has only one secretary. Although she is called a secretary, she is actually an all-round talent who combines bodyguard, subordinate, and housekeeper into one.
Qin Xu nodded with relief.
"And then? You don't seem to want to explain it to me." Mo Chuan's tone was a little high.
Qin Xu glanced at him coldly, "Although we are in charge of different things, I can't interfere with your work, but... you haven't come to work recently. It's not good to let the secretary do everything."
Mo Chuan suddenly showed a distressed expression, clicked his tongue, turned around and left the office.
In terms of power, Qin Xu has more.
"Stop watching the show, both of you, hurry up and finish the work."
Li Yan and Secretary Yang looked at each other and smiled secretly.
After get off work, Li Yan hurried back home. Of course, Xigua did not forget.
"Oh, welcome back."
"Brother, what do you want to eat?"
"I'm not hungry. I ate a little late this afternoon and now I can't eat anymore."
"I'm pretty much the same, so I'll just eat watermelon."
"Um!"
Looking at Li Nuo's happy smile while eating watermelon, Li Yan sincerely hoped that such days could continue for a long time.
..........
On the other side, at Qin Xu's home.
For some reason, Mo Chuan has been staying at Qin Xu's house. After all, it's just a place to sleep. For Mo Chuan, whose main family members are not in this country, it is more convenient to live with familiar people.
Now, Mo Chuan held a document in his hand and threw it to Qin Xu who had just returned, saying unhappily: "Here, this is the information Liu Ming found. That company really has some problems. It seems to be doing some illegal business."
Qin Xu opened the leather bag and browsed through the information carefully.
"But why are you suddenly interested in such a small company?" Mo Chuan tilted his head and looked at him, "Are you planning to go back to your old business?"
"Don't talk nonsense," Qin Xu didn't even look up, "It's just because of something."
Mo Chuan snorted, "Oh - silly talk."
He glanced at the bag next to Qin Xu and asked, "What is that?"
Qin Xu paused in flipping through the documents, picked up the bag, went upstairs, and returned to his room.
Only Mo Chuan was left downstairs. He narrowed his eyes and watched Qin Xu's back as he walked into the room. "So suspicious. Something must have happened."
After all, it was suspicious enough that Qin Xu asked himself to investigate a company whose business had no overlap at all.
His eyes rolled and he immediately called his secretary Liu Ming and asked him to investigate.
Liu Ming was the person specially left to him by his parents, and he has excellent business capabilities.
He must eat this melon.
The investigation would take some time, so Mo Chuan returned to his room humming a song.
Qin Xu finished reading the information, pondered for a while, and came up with an idea to deal with this company.
He lowered his head and saw the bag at his feet, which contained the sunglasses and clothes that Linuo had chosen for him in the morning.
Now I think about it, I was really confused at that time. Why did I go shopping with him and even buy all these things? Oh, Li Nuo paid for the sunglasses and said it was a gift for me to thank him for his financial support.
Thinking of leaving it like this, he suddenly thought of Li Nuo's brilliant smile when she said goodbye to him, and her dazzling figure in the sunlight.
After a pause, he called his aunt and asked her to alter the clothes into a size that he could wear.
Ignoring the aunt's curious expression, Qin Xu continued to work.
The sunglasses were placed on the table, ready to be put in the car tomorrow.
The next morning, Qin Xu came to the company and handed Li Yan a document, "Take a look at it, and then improve the details. If there are no problems, implement it."
Li Yan took the document with a bewildered look on his face. How come he hadn't heard about any investment projects the company had recently?
When he opened it, he was surprised to see a name he had seen once before, "This is......"
After hurriedly reading the plan, "Are you going to invest in this?" The document clearly showed the name of the MLM company that Li Nuo had visited before.
"How could they possibly invest?" Qin Xu sneered, "I want to make them go bankrupt."
Li Yan nodded seriously, "I understand. I will perfect it as soon as possible."
Someone in this company has set their sights on Li Nuo, whether intentionally or unintentionally, it is very dangerous.
This needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.
Li Nuo was awakened by the constant ringing of his cell phone. He turned on his phone and saw a constant stream of text messages from an unfamiliar number.
【Why haven’t you come yet? 】
[I didn’t say I would come to pick up the goods. ]
[Is it possible that I didn’t get paid? That’s okay. You can get less for the first time.]
【Come quickly, I'll wait for you. 】
【.......】
After staring at the number for a long time, Li Nuo finally remembered that this was the number of Chen Yu that he had deleted, the one who tricked him into joining a pyramid scheme company.
Delete all text messages and block the number.
Li Nuo was too lazy to pay attention to him and continued to sleep.
