Chapter 13 Bullied again?
Han's house is very big, divided into the front yard and the back yard. When Pei Zechen chased out, Han Feng was leading Qu Tao to the back yard.
"Han Feng?"
Han Feng turned around when he heard the voice, and Pei Zechen looked at him and smiled faintly.
"Do you like the flowers from yesterday?"
"Are you... Pei Zechen?"
Pei Zechen nodded and walked towards the two of them. Thinking of Xi Mozhou behind him, he looked at Qu Tao.
"Mr. Qu, do you mind letting Han Feng and I chat alone for a while?"
It was the first time the fiancé met, so Qu Tao naturally couldn't refuse. Han Feng wanted to refuse, but was stopped by Qu Tao's eyes.
"Crazy, you two chat for a while, I'll go to the backyard for a walk."
"Then don't go too far, I'll come find you later."
It was early autumn, and the backyard was full of green plants and flowers. Qu Tao took a walk and sat down in the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Although it was September, there were still many water lilies in full bloom in the artificial lake. A breeze blew over, creating a unique artistic conception. Even the depression he felt when he saw Xi Mozhou early in the morning dissipated a lot.
"Taotao?"
Qu Tao heard Xi Mozhou's call from behind, and cursed in his heart.
The dog man is really a dog. Call him Taotao behind people's backs and screw him, but call him Mr. Qu in front of people and screw his company.
Qu Tao glanced at him coldly, stood up from the stool in the pavilion, and prepared to leave.
Xi Mozhou stood at the exit of the small path in the middle of the lake that could only accommodate one person, looking at the water lilies in the lake.
"Do you like water lilies?"
"Does it have anything to do with President Xi? Please , please let me go. "
Qu Tao thought of the contract from yesterday morning, which was snatched away by him again, and his face turned livid. Xi Mozhou blocked the exit and had no intention of letting him go. "Have you had breakfast?" "Does it have anything to do with you? Get out of the way." Qu Tao lost his patience and pushed him in the chest. Xi Mozhou held his outstretched hand and took him into his arms. "Let's go back to Yanshi together in the afternoon?" "No, if you want to go back, go back by yourself." Qu Tao raised his leg and kicked him in the crotch. When Xi Mozhou dodged, he almost fell into the artificial lake next to him. "So cruel? You don't need me for the rest of my life?" Qu Tao passed him and ran a short distance before turning back. "Yes, I don't care." There was still some time before the banquet started at noon. Qu Tao looked around but didn't see Han Feng. He was worried that Xi Mozhou would find him again. He said hello to Old Man Han and hid in Han Feng's bedroom. It was not until a few minutes before the banquet started that Han Feng got the news from Old Man Han and came to the bedroom to call him. "Isn't it boring to hide here? Are you worried that Xi Mozhou will find you?" "Well, what about you? Where did you go with your fiancé?" "Let's talk about it later. We'll be waiting downstairs." Those who came to Old Man Han's birthday banquet were all business people. There were three tables in total. Qu Tao followed Han Feng and naturally sat at the main table. When the two went downstairs, there were only two empty seats between Xi Mozhou and Pei Zechen on the main table. Everyone who came to the banquet knew about the marriage between the Pei and Han families. Qu Tao sat down next to Xi Mozhou. "Where did you go just now? I looked for you all morning but couldn't find you." Xi Mozhou moved his chair closer to him, but Qu Tao pretended not to hear him and moved closer to Han Feng. In order to prevent Xi Mozhou from making small talk, Qu Tao took the lead in raising his glass to toast Mr. Han. "Happy birthday, Uncle Han. I wish you good health and a long life." With Qu Tao's precedent, everyone raised their glasses to toast Mr. Han. Amid the noise, Qu Tao took the opportunity to discuss with Han Feng in a low voice. "Crazy, I'll leave early in a while. You help me hold back Xi Mozhou." "Okay, are we going back to the apartment? Do you want me to arrange a driver to take you there?" "No, I'd better go back to Yanshi. I'll have to deal with those shabby stalls sooner or later. I'll call a designated driver later." Han's house is located in the suburbs. Halfway through the dinner, Qu Tao went to the bathroom and took out his cell phone to call a designated driver. When he put away his cell phone and came out of the bathroom, Xi Mozhou was standing by the sink with his arms folded across his chest. "After the dinner, come back to Yanshi with me." Xi Mozhou's words didn't sound like a negotiation, but rather an order. Qu Tao treated him as air and turned on the water pipe next to him. Xi Mozhou stared at the mirror, looking slightly tipsy, and spoke again. "Approve the friend request on your phone." After wiping his hands, Qu Tao glanced at him coldly and walked out. Xi Mozhou grabbed his arm and took him into his arms. "Be good...be obedient." "Asshole, let me go." "When we get back to Yanshi, I'll take you somewhere. Don't be angry, okay?" "If I slap you and then give you a date, will you be angry?" Qu Tao stepped hard on his foot and broke away. Han Feng saw the two of them walking back and forth and whispered to Qu Tao. "Bullying again?" "No." Half an hour later, when Qu Tao saw that the driver was still a few minutes away from him, he whispered a few words in Han Feng's ear and stood up. "Where are you going?" Xi Mozhou was chatting with someone, but his eyes were always looking at him. Qu Tao was worried that he would follow him, so he made a random reply and evaded the question. "You are so nosy. I'm going to the bathroom." Xi Mozhou waited for a while, and when he saw that Qu Tao hadn't come back, he was about to get up. Han Feng raised his glass and motioned to him. "Senior Xi, we haven't had a drink together for several years, right? Have a drink?" As expected of a long-time businessman, Xi Mozhou became suspicious with just a simple sentence. He finished the wine in the glass, got up and said goodbye to Mr. Han.
"Boss Han, there's something urgent that needs to be dealt with in Yanshi. I'll bother you another day."
Han Feng saw him walk out of the hall and quickly sent a message to inform Qu Tao.
"Taozi, Xi Mozhou said goodbye to his old man and left the banquet. Be careful, he's going to catch you.
Qu Tao took a picture of the scenery outside the car window and sent him a big smile in return.
"Don't worry, whether he left the banquet because of me or not, he can't catch up with me."
After Qu Tao sent the message, Assistant Wang called.
"Boss Qu, I have good news for you."
Qu Tao now had a headache when he heard the good news from him, and his tone was extremely cold.
"Say it."
"Our coffee shop business is booming now."
This is really good news. At least he is not forced to deal with Xi Mozhou by the contract.
"What's going on? "
"The coffee shop opened by Difeng next to ours has closed down. It is being renovated today. It looks like it will be converted into a flower shop."
"Oh..."
Xi Mozhou was thinking about what he was up to. The person on the other end of the phone continued.
"Mr. Qu, where are you? Do you want to come over and see?"
"I'm on my way back to Yanshi. I'll talk to you when I get there." After
hanging up the phone, a number that was not saved called immediately. Qu Tao looked at the familiar string of numbers and decisively pressed the reject button and turned off the phone.
Yanshi is a four-hour drive from Yuncheng. Qu Tao came to the coffee shop in the evening. He had just got off the car and had not yet walked into the coffee shop when Xi Mozhou walked out of the flower shop that was being renovated next to him.
"Mr. Qu, what a coincidence, we meet again."
