Chapter 52: Crazy 52 Day Bone // Science Literature
Tan Mo: "Strange? What's strange about it?"
"Don't you think that what Fang Yixin did was seduction?" Lin Yu asked.
Tan Mo thought about it carefully, "It's true."
The sofa in Song Yuanqiao's office was like that last time, but Tan Mo didn't think about it that way at that time.
Tan Mo: "Then why did she seduce?"
"That's the problem," Lin Yu said logically. "My nephew and Fang Yixin met on a blind date. What woman would do something so outrageous on a blind date? Unless it's just her nature, or the other person is so outstanding, far superior to her, that she wants to show off her feminine charm and win him over."
"It's her nature..."
"I don't think she's naturally charming or alluring," Tan Mo said. "Although I've only met her twice, she strikes me as someone with a cold personality who wouldn't do something like this."
"As for Xiang Lingyun surpassing Fang Yixin's excellence..."
Lin Yu: "Do you think Xiang Lingyun is much better than Fang Yixin?"
Tan Mo shook her head. "Looking at her appearance, Fang Yixin may have average features and isn't very tall, but she knows how to dress well. She also has a cool, somber temperament. Her long, straight black hair with bangs and a black dress really suit her."
"Xiang Lingyun doesn't mess around with himself, but he's young, tall, and relatively clean."
"Financially speaking, Xiang Lingyun's salary at Deyin isn't that high. Although I don't know where Fang Yixin works, her salary isn't much lower than Xiang Lingyun's. It's probably about the same, or even higher."
"Family." Tan Mo thought for a moment. "Xiang Lingyun's family is considered relatively well-off among ordinary families, somewhere between the well-off and middle class. They don't have to worry about food and clothing, they have a house and a car, and he's the only child of his parents."
"As for Fang Yixin, you know, even though Mr. Fang is bankrupt and no longer making money, his foundation is still there, so there's no way he'll starve. It's just that her family is a little complicated. Her father is a bad person, he's a philanderer, and she has several brothers and sisters."
Tan Mo: "To sum it up, one is beautiful, the other is stable and has a little money, so they are both the same."
"That's right!" Lin Yu clapped his hands. "Since they are the same, Xiang Lingyun is not much better than Fang Yixin, so why did Fang Yixin do this?"
"He looked like he was desperate to get the other person as soon as possible."
Tan Mo: “I don’t know about that.”
Lin Yu: "No wonder gossip has such a magical power. We've analyzed it to this point, and the answer is right in front of us, but we can't eat or touch it. It's so uncomfortable."
Tan Mo suddenly laughed and said, "Why don't you ask Aunt Fengjuan what's going on at the Fang family?"
"You make sense." Lin Yu suddenly stood up, took out his cell phone and sent a message to Aunt Fengjuan.
There was a knock on the door.
Tan Mo patted Lin Yu, who was lying on the sofa in a daze, and said, "Hurry up and get up. The boss of Deyin is here."
The moment Lin Yu sat up, the door opened, but what they didn't expect was that the person who came was not Deyin's boss, but Xiang Lingyun.
Xiang Lingyun came in with two glasses of water and said shyly with a smile, "I'll bring you some water."
Lin Yu said frankly: "We have water, and the previous employees poured it for us."
"Ah!" Xiang Lingyun uttered softly, feeling a little embarrassed.
He had just graduated from college and was really inexperienced in dealing with these facts.
Tan Mo came to his rescue, "It's okay, it's all the same, just put it down. We don't know when your boss will come, we have people waiting."
Xiang Lingyun: "I'm really sorry for making you wait so long."
Lin Yu asked curiously, "Is your girlfriend gone?"
"Ah?!" Xiang Lingyun escaped again.
But this time there is more shyness and sweetness.
"Well, I sent her downstairs." Xiang Lingyun stammered embarrassedly, "She...isn't really my girlfriend..."
Lin Yu was dumbfounded. Even after all this, she was still not his girlfriend?
Xiang Lingyun: "...but it should be soon. I plan to tell her about this in a few days. I wonder if Yixin will agree to be my girlfriend."
In fact, this progress is quite fast. It hasn’t even been a week since the first blind date.
But every couple has their own way of getting along. Tan Mo doesn't allow for arguments.
She said, "You two seem to be on good terms. Fang Yixin is here to accompany you to work?"
"No. She was suddenly in a bad mood today and wanted to come see me. I'm not very busy at work, so I agreed." Xiang Lingyun became a little nervous when talking about these things. He took a deep breath, "But I can't just leave my post at this job, so I had to ask Yixin to come."
"Otherwise I'll go find her."
Lin Yu: "You're quite considerate of your future girlfriend. Are you the one who goes to see her every time we go on a date?"
"No…no."
To be honest, this was their second time meeting each other. After their last blind date, they only chatted on WeChat.
When they met, Xiang Lingyun could feel Fang Yixin's enthusiasm, but for some reason, Yixin was very cold during the online chat and often took a long time to reply to his messages.
The messages he replied to each time were not as teasing as when we met in person.
But Xiang Lingyun couldn't say these things to people who were not very close to him.
"If I went to find Yi Xin, Yi Xin wouldn't say it here..." This was Xiang Lingyun's main purpose in delivering water to Tan Mo.
They must have heard what he and Fang Yixin were saying just now. Xiang Lingyun wanted to explain it clearly so that others would not think that his girlfriend was too unruly.
But this kind of thing is not easy to make clear.
Tan Mo and Lin Yu looked at each other and knew what was going on.
Tan Mo comforted him, "What did she say? We don't understand, so don't let your imagination run wild."
It seemed that Mr. Tan understood what he meant and breathed a sigh of relief to Lingyun.
He asked Tan Mo: "What are you doing in our company?"
Tan Mo: "Acquisition."
Xiang Lingyun was a little anxious. He glanced at the door and said softly, "Our company is about to go bankrupt. What's the point of you buying a bunch of scrap metal? Don't be cheated by our boss."
Tan Mo: "What is your position in the company?"
Xiang Lingyun: "It's a technical position. My undergraduate degree is in biology. I and another technician are responsible for the genetic identification work in our company."
Tan Mo: !!! Wow, I didn’t expect to find such an expert
"Tell me in detail how your company has become a pile of scrap metal."
So Xiang Lingyun started by talking about the changes in genetic identification technology and market, and analyzed the reasons why Dein Company was about to go bankrupt.
Due to the wrong time and place, Xiang Lingyun could only give a rough summary. Despite this, he spoke for about ten minutes.
Xiang Lingyun's mouth was dry. "After all, this is my boss's territory. I can't say any more. Mr. Tan, if you want to know more, add me on WeChat and I'll talk to you after get off work."
After adding WeChat, Xiang Lingyun left.
Lin Yu: "...This silly boy is actually quite nice, telling such secrets to outsiders."
"In other words, the reason Dein is on the verge of bankruptcy is because everyone in the industry is trying to drive down prices, and their company's equipment is too old. Dein's boss can't afford new equipment, so they're doomed to fail and fail to drive down prices."
Before acquiring the company, Tan Mo asked Lu Xingjian to conduct as much background check on the company as possible, but background check on the company is not an invincible magic weapon, and it itself has loopholes.
Just as it is impossible for humans to fully understand the forest, only the forest itself can fully understand the forest.
In this matter, Xiang Lingyun is the forest itself.
Tan Mo smiled and said, "Okay, okay, we can lower the price when we negotiate the price."
In fact, Tan Mo is actually quite interested in acquiring Deyin. It has a good geographical location, there are not many residential and commercial areas around it, and privacy issues can be effectively solved.
Moreover, the price offered by Mr. Dein was lower than that offered by the second genetic identification company.
Although it was quite high, after a brief introduction to Lingyun and her, Tan Mo felt that the price could be reduced a lot.
Tan Mo took a sip of water and said, "Now we just have to wait for Deyin's boss to come."
She frowned slightly, "The water is actually warm. I really want to drink ice water."
The cell phone rang at this time. Tan Mo took a look and saw that it was Lu Xingjian calling.
Lin Yu happened to be sitting nearby and glanced over: "Why did he call?"
"Hello." Tan Mo has answered the call.
The clear voice of Lu Xingjian came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Tan, I'm at a nearby coffee shop. I bought you a cup of coffee. What else would you like to drink?"
Tan Mo: "A coffee shop nearby?"
"Well, I'm near Dein Company and came to find you."
Whatever you think will come true. Tan Mo felt inexplicably happy.
After asking for the address of the coffee shop, she said, "I'll come find you."
Then he closed his phone and rushed out.
Lin Yu: ...
"Hey! Remember to bring me ice cream." Lin Yu shouted at Tan Mo's back.
"You didn't even mention bringing me something." When Tan Mo was on the phone, Lin Yu, who was sitting next to her, couldn't help but hear it.
During their entire conversation, they never mentioned buying anything for Lin Yu.
Lin Yu glanced at Boss Dein's shabby office. It was a bit boring, but was it necessary to run so fast?
*
There are only two coffee shops close to Dein Genetic Testing Company. Coincidentally, the one Lu Xingjian chose was the one Tan Mo passed by when she drove here.
Tan Mo still remembers the road, which is less than one kilometer.
The sun is at its peak in late July.
Tan Mo rushed out from the Deyin office building, but when she was halfway there, she felt that she had made a mistake.
There was no shade on the main road to the coffee shop, so Tan Mo had to be exposed to the sun.
Tan Mo was frightened at the thought of getting some freckles from the sun.
At the end of the sun-bleached road, a figure holding an umbrella was running from afar. As the figure got closer and closer, a smile unconsciously appeared on Tan Mo's face.
"Lu Xingjian!"
"Mr. Tan." Lu Xingjian's breath was not steady from jogging for a while, and sweat was beading on the tip of his pretty nose. "Why don't you bring an umbrella?"
Tan Mo: "I knew you would bring it, so I didn't."
“…”
Lu Xingjian: "That shouldn't be a reason. Mr. Tan still needs to learn how to take care of himself."
He held an umbrella for Tan Mo and walked forward. The two figures, one big and one small, walked side by side. The smaller figure was carefree and took confident steps without any worries.
The larger figure bent his head slightly and held the umbrella respectfully.
Lu Xingjian lowered his eyes. He felt that sometimes he was indeed like Tan Mo's servant.
Lu Xingjian: “…”
Tan Mo said confidently: "You are my assistant. It is your job to take care of me. I don't need to take care of myself."
"One day, I won't be your assistant anymore."
Tan Mo suddenly stopped, and Lu Xingjian, who was following beside her, almost pressed against her without noticing. In order to steady himself, his free hand naturally pressed down on Tan Mo's shoulder.
Tan Mo frowned slightly, "What's wrong? Your mother is in trouble. Do you want to resign now?"
"No, no." Lu Xingjian shook his head.
"But I feel like you're not in a good mood after your trip home."
Lu Xingjian smiled and said, "With a family like this, no one would be in a good mood."
Tan Mo suddenly realized that before this, she seemed to have never heard Lu Xingjian talk about his original family.
Tan Mo asked tentatively, "Is your mother sick? If you need help, you must tell me. I'm the eldest daughter of the Nangong family, so I can help you contact a good doctor and hospital. You don't have to worry too much about the money."
"Of course, if you don't want to disclose your family situation, you don't have to. But if there are any problems that cannot be resolved, remember to tell me and all of us."
Lu Xingjian shook his head, "That's not the case yet. I can handle it myself."
"Okay then." Tan Mo continued to move forward.
The hand on Tan Mo's shoulder suddenly felt empty, and there was nothing to grab.
Lu Xingjian was a little stunned.
By the time he came to his senses, Tan Mo was already two or three meters away from him, exposed to the scorching sun.
Lu Xingjian quickly caught up with her and provided her with shade.
"Mr. Tan, you are a little excited now."
Tan Mo hummed a song, "Of course, if you inspect three companies in a row in a short period of time like me without taking a break, you will be like this too."
"The boss also wants to touch the fish, OK?"
*
Tan Mo bought five cups of coffee and three ice creams at the coffee shop. Lin Yu even called her and said she must have matcha and vanilla flavors.
Afraid they would forget about me.
Tan Mo: “…”
I don’t quite understand why Lin Yu has such an idea.
Tan Mo asked on WeChat: "Have you asked the Deyin employees how long it will take for their boss to arrive?"
Lin Yu: [About 15 minutes.]
OK.
Anyway, this business cooperation seems shady no matter how you look at it.
Then just do it in an unorthodox way.
Tan Mo closed her phone.
Since Lu Xingjian held the umbrella for her, the coffee and ice cream were in Tan Mo's hands, and the two walked towards the office building together.
At 4:30 in the afternoon, there were not many people coming and going.
As soon as Tan Mo and Lu Xingjian arrived downstairs, they saw no-entry signs in front of both elevators.
A worker came out from behind a stone pillar. "Please take the stairs. We're still repairing the elevator. We have to finish the work before the end of the shift, so we can't let you sit for a while."
"Okay." Tan Mo agreed.
Tan Mo and Lu Xingjian looked at each other, then resigned themselves to turning right and taking the stairs.
There are transparent windows on each floor of the stairs, so the stairwell is not dark, but it is stuffy and unbearable.
"This office building is quite new, which is good for us." Tan Mo wiped the sweat from her forehead.
A genetic testing company can be located in a remote location, but it can't be shabby. A wealthy person wouldn't do business in such a place.
Lu Xingjian nodded.
When they reached the second floor, Tan Mo introduced: "Fortunately, Hao Deyin is on the sixth floor. If he was on the 10th floor, we would have to walk..."
"You did all this just to piss me off? Very well, woman, I'll give you what you want."
A man's angry, low voice suddenly rang above Tan Mo's head, scaring her so much that she bit her tongue.
Tan Mo:!!!
Oh my god! Oh my god!
It hurts so much!
The pain was so severe that Tan Mo's mind went blank for a second or two and she closed her eyes tightly.
Which domineering boss is putting on this show to harm her?
It was obvious that Lu Xingjian was also a little confused. He silently mouthed to Tan Mo: "Let's go quickly, let's go, Mr. Tan."
She won't leave!
Eavesdropping was indeed an immoral act, but they had brought this upon themselves, and the man had frightened her so much that she bit her tongue.
There was a bloody taste in the mouth.
She wanted to see which two crazy couple were acting in this idol drama.
Ignoring the obstruction, Tan Mo quietly took a few steps up the stairs.
The crazy man and woman were standing on the staircase landing on the third floor. The crazy man blocked the crazy woman at the door of the emergency passage. Tan Mo could only see that the crazy woman was wearing a black dress.
The man was wearing a dark grey shirt and black suit pants.
What a dark family.
"When you were dating your girlfriend and decided to get married, weren't you provoking me? Have you ever thought about me?" The woman was very angry, her voice louder than the man's.
Tan Mo: Wow, what's going on here? A love triangle?
Her desire to share has now reached its peak, and she blinked frantically to convey information to Lu Xingjian.
Lu Xingjian was embarrassed and pulled Tan Mo's clothes, indicating that it was still time for her to leave.
Tan Mo curled her lips and continued to express with her eyes: "Why are you leaving? Such a good show has just begun!"
Lu Xingjian had no choice but to join Tan Mo in making trouble.
The man on the other side spoke again: "Xiao Xin, I have no choice, we...we can't be together."
Tan Mo thought: That voice sounds quite helpless. Can't be together? Why? Is he cheating or having an affair? And Shin-chan? Who is he? Crayon Shin-chan? Shouldn't he be in Japan?
Damn, Tan Mo was thinking frantically, and the CPU was almost burning up.
Girl: "Okay, then we won't be together. You marry another woman, and I'll marry another man. This man is pretty good, I'll marry him right away."
She chuckled and said, "If I had come earlier, I could have gotten married with you."
"Xiao Xin!" the man shouted, pinching the woman's chin. "You know exactly what I can't stand the most is you mentioning other men in front of me!"
Tan Mo: That's a bit exciting. Does this count as robbing literature? Bro, you're getting married, and you don't allow others to get married too?
Man: "Isn't this what you want? I'll grant you that."
After saying that, the man kissed the woman's lips fiercely with lightning speed while Tan Mo was still complaining.
Tan Mo, who was halfway through complaining: "......"
Oh my god, they are not going to do it in the corridor, right?
There shouldn't be any 18+ scenes that are not suitable for children, right?
A shadow suddenly fell in front of Tan Mo's eyes.
Lu Xingjian advised anxiously: "Mr. Tan, let's go. You might get beaten up by them."
Tan Mo: ???
Lu Xingjian stuck to her back and covered Tan Mo's eyes with his hands. He tried his best to remain calm, but as it was his first time facing such a situation, he was a little at a loss as to what to do.
The voice trembled.
Lu Xingjian's hands were very hot. Tan Mo manually separated his five fingers, revealing her eyes, and blinked as she watched the kissing scene in front of her.
The two of them seemed to be kissing too realistically, too passionately, and too uncontrollably, and they didn't notice anything happening on Tan Mo's side.
Their kiss was so sticky that the faint sound of water reached Tan Mo's ears.
Tan Mo felt a little nauseous. It was such a hot day, in such a stuffy corridor, and he was all sweaty, but he didn't mind the dirt and smell and could still kiss her.
No wonder romance novels have to be written in an exaggerated way. If they were too close to real life, even if they were erotic, how many readers would want to read them?
When Tan Mo was a female college student, she followed the crowd and read a few books that she shouldn't have read.
I still felt something at that time.
Now it’s more advanced, it’s the real you... but it’s numb, I will seal my heart and love in this life and never do anything sexual again.
Tan Mo manually closed Lu Xingjian's five fingers again, out of sight, out of mind.
Lu Xingjian, who was treated arbitrarily like this: "..."
Tan Mo also kindly reminded him: "Close your eyes, oh, and plug your ears too."
Lu Xingjian, who had kept his eyes closed, said: "..."
In fact, when they were kissing, there were occasionally a few angles where the man and the woman showed half of their side faces, but Tan Mo was nearsighted and could not see clearly.
Just when Tan Mo was wondering whether this crazy couple were going to kiss for half an hour like in romance novels, the other party stopped.
The woman said: "Damn, it's so hot."
Tan Mo: ... Fortunately, although the epileptic woman’s brain is not normal, her heat sensory organs are still functioning, and she knows it’s hot.
The man chuckled deeply, "Don't you like this? You think I don't know you."
The woman hummed coquettishly and gave him a seductive glance.
The voice became plaintive again, "You know I'm unhappy, but you still chase me here. I know you have me in your heart."
"Brother, no matter how much we quarrel and ignore each other, we still have to eat New Year's Eve dinner at the same table during the New Year."
Tan Mo: ???
This is a bit too much information.
"Does my sister-in-law who's waiting to be married know how crazy you are in my bed?"
Tan Mo: !!! Oh my god, old swan, this turns out to be orthopedic literature.
The amount of information exploded.
Tan Mo was stunned with shock, and the plastic bag in her hand fell to the ground with a bang.
The sound was so loud that even the most absorbed men and women could hear it, and they turned their heads abruptly.
Two faces that are not much different. The man's face with feminine features makes the man look a bit feminine and rounded; while the woman's face with masculine features adds a touch of coldness to the woman.
And just recently, Tan Mo had seen this woman.
It was Fang Yixin and her brother Fang Yihang.
In a flash, Tan Mo understood everything!
Lu Xingjian didn't have as comprehensive an understanding as Tan Mo, but seeing the two almost identical faces in front of him, plus their conversation, even if he couldn't guess that they were Fang Yixin and Fang Yihang, he knew that they were brother and sister.
Lu Xingjian felt very cold in his heart.
Well, now that they know this secret, will they still be alive?
Lu Xingjian tightened his jaw and subconsciously grabbed Tan Mo's hand. If a fight really broke out, he could pull Tan Mo away immediately.
Fang Yihang, standing on the third-floor platform, had a tense expression on his face, while Fang Yixin narrowed her eyes, raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at the two people below.
In the sweltering environment, war is about to break out.
The cold liquid of coffee splashed on the instep of Tan Mo's feet. She spoke first, "Okay, you have to compensate me with five cups of coffee."
Tan Mo was wearing high heels. As she took them off, she said, "This coffee shop is an internet celebrity. One cup is fifty, and five cups are two hundred and fifty. My shoes are Valentino, they cost at least five thousand."
She held her high heels in her hand, winked at Lu Xingjian slightly, and adjusted her pace.
She asked confidently, "The total is five thousand two hundred and fifty. What's your attitude? If your attitude is good, I'll deduct the two hundred and fifty. If not, I'll compensate you at the original price. You better think carefully about whether you want the two hundred and fifty or not."
Fang Yixin was a little confused by Tan Mo, and she looked at Fang Yihang.
Fang Yihang frowned, as if in deep thought.
At this moment, Tan Mo shouted, "Run!"
They were swept away by the wind, and Tan Mo and Lu Xingjian ran downstairs quickly.
There were workers repairing the elevator downstairs, and Tan Mo didn't believe they would dare to do anything wrong.
Behind me came the sound of footsteps chasing me closely and getting closer and closer.
Lu Xingjian pulled her and ran downstairs as hard as he could.
Tan Mo: ...I'm so tired. It was just a piece of melon, who knew it would be such a shocking piece of melon...
The workers who were repairing and inspecting the elevator felt two black whirlwinds passing by their eyes.
Worker:"……"
What happened.
*
6:30 in the evening.
Lin Yu was almost speechless.
Dein’s boss has come from outside, but his own boss hasn’t come back yet.
It was just buying some coffee and ice cream. She wasn't asked to rub an atomic bomb with her hands. Was it necessary for her to be away for so long and not come back?
Faced with the confused and bewildered look of Boss Dein, Lin Yu was overwhelmed.
In the end, Tan Mo and Lu Xingjian did make it back. But who could explain to her why her boss came back barefoot, carrying only one high-heeled shoe, twisting and turning, and sleeping in the open?
Lin Yu: "It's over."
The company's high image was destroyed.
That would be fine, but why did he have to stay at Dein Company until 6:30 when all the employees had already left work?
And why did she have to contact a car of bodyguards to protect him?
Lin Yu: ??? Help! Nangong Lie wasn’t this crazy back then.
But what else can we do?
You can only pamper your own boss.
Lin Yu called for two cars of bodyguards, worried that the matter was too serious and he could not handle it, so he also called Jin Yuan, Jiang Qingya, Xu Xiaonian and others.
After Jin Yuan and the others arrived, they saw Tan Mo's dazed look and were a little confused about the situation.
Jiang Qingya: "I just asked you to be my personal assistant for one day, and you messed me up like this?"
Lin Yu was on the verge of tears. "I'm innocent. I don't know anything. When I asked her, she refused to tell me anything. She just said to go home first and talk to me when it's safe."
"Then how did you negotiate with him?" Jin Yuan raised his chin towards Boss Dein.
Boss Dein chuckled.
Lin Yu sighed, "Although Lu Xingjian is a bit silly, he is quite normal in his professional field."
Jiang Qingya and Jin Yuan glanced at Lu Xingjian who was accompanying Tan Mo. He was in a daze like Tan Mo, but in a much better condition than Tan Mo.
"Both husband and wife have become fools. Let's go back first." Jiang Qingya took charge of the situation.
So Tan Mo and Lu Xingjian left Deyin Company under the protection of a group of sisters and seven or eight bodyguards.
Lin Yu turned around and glanced at Boss Dein.
The look in Deyin's boss's eyes: Damn, bad luck, what a stupid partner, God pokes
Lin Yu: “…”
My boss has gone completely crazy.
