Chapter 23 She is under my nephew's care
The Spring Festival is approaching, and everyone is very busy at the end of the year. He Qian's schedule is full, and Song Li's things are also happening one after another.
At this time, Song Li was in the R&D department verifying with Liang Tao the information that He Qian would need for the afternoon meeting when he heard a commotion outside the office.
The glass door was not closed, and Liang Tao was disturbed. He stopped and shouted to the assistant: "What's the noise outside?"
The assistant came in to report: "Mr. Du from Qihang is here. He just joined the project department!"
The project department and the R&D department are on the same floor, just opposite each other. Du Zhanrong has been in the limelight recently, so it's no wonder that he has attracted a group of crazy fans.
When Song Li heard Du Zhanrong, his mood instantly became gloomy. He had heard earlier that Qiliang and Qihang were going to cooperate on a project to develop and deploy smart equipment for nursing homes. He thought they would meet after the Spring Festival, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.
"Close the door!" Liang Tao said in a bad tone. He had been pressed for time due to too many things to do recently. Before continuing to check the data, he deliberately glanced at Song Li. After all, he had heard that Du Zhanrong had pursued her in the past.
Song Li was not affected. He completed the docking carefully and went upstairs with the information.
Standing at the elevator entrance, a group of people from the project department came out. Du Zhanrong walked in front, followed by the project manager He Lin, and two assistants behind him.
Song Li made some distance, greeted each other, and entered the elevator together.
Du Zhanrong saw her at first sight, only to find her so indifferent and evasive. Shouldn't he be the one who should be angry?
In the elevator, Song Li was standing in the corner, He Lin was talking with Du Zhanrong's assistant Ye Mingmei, and Du Zhanrong stood at the exit like a mountain.
After coming out of the elevator, Song Li returned to her seat. She was originally in a hurry to report her affairs, but when she thought about the conversation between Du Zhanrong and He Qian, it was not convenient for her to go in.
Before she even sat down, an insider came in. Song Li thought it was He Qian who let her in, but it turned out that the administrative department called to ask her about the theme of this year's annual meeting.
Of course, this kind of thing was not decided by Song Li, but everyone in Qiliang knew that Yang Xiao and Song Li knew the boss best. Yang Xiao was not a warm-hearted person. In previous years, people in the administrative department would ask Song Li's opinion and approve it every time.
"I'll go downstairs and talk to you!" It just so happened that Song Li left first, so he didn't have to go in and serve tea and water.
"Sister Li!" Zeng Xinyue came out with coffee and snacks and called her, "Mr. He asked you to come in."
Song Li took a deep breath, it seemed that he still couldn't escape!
"Xinyue, please call the administrator, Sister Fen, back for me and tell her I'll talk to her when I'm free."
As soon as I walked in, I saw He Qian standing up and putting on his coat. His movements were brisk. "I have to discuss something with my superiors at 2:30 this afternoon. Time is a bit tight. You can stay here for dinner and we can continue in the afternoon. You couldn't come up with it yesterday, so I asked Yang Xiao to make an appointment for today."
He Lin took people to arrange the meeting room. Only Du Zhanrong and his assistant Ye Mingmei were sitting on the sofa.
Song Li walked forward, holding the documents, his brows slightly furrowed. He Qian had a hangover last night, hadn't eaten breakfast tonight, and still had to take a four-hour drive to a meeting...
He Qian stood in front of Song Li and took the documents from her hand. The next second, Song Li straightened his clothes and tied his tie skillfully.
"There are two sticky notes on the plan. Do you want to adopt Director Liang's suggestions? I'll send you a final draft after I make the changes and have them print it out immediately."
"What about dinner?"
"Can."
"You didn't refuse?"
"Secretary Liu has already agreed to the appointment, so they definitely don't dare to refuse."
"Where's the stuff?"
"It will be delivered to his home at the exact time you arrive at the conference hall."
He Qian nodded with satisfaction.
Sitting on the sofa, Du Zhanrong watched their conversation and movements that were done in one go, which was so natural that it was a bit glaring!
In addition to them, Yang Xiao was standing by in the president's office, as were Du Zhanrong and Ye Mingmei. It wasn't just the two of them!
He Qian passed the information to Yang Xiao behind him, and then said to Du Zhanrong, "I'm leaving first. If you have anything, please call me. Song Li and He Lin will fully cooperate with you. If you have any conditions, please feel free to ask."
After watching them leave, Song Li spoke, "Mr. Du, now... should I inform Manager He that we should have a meeting in the conference room? Or should we finish our coffee, I'll arrange lunch first, and then discuss the case this afternoon?"
Du Zhanrong looked at her intently, and her tone was so calm, as if the fact that she had used and deceived him had never happened!
How many times had she used such dirty tricks to deal with others before she could forget about them so quickly and face him so calmly and calmly!
Ye Mingmei was still immersed in the scene where Song Li tied He Qian's tie. If only she could have such a tacit understanding with Du Zhanrong...
Song Li was a little embarrassed and took out his phone. "Then I'll ask Manager He for his opinion."
"Those who are setting sail can come back this afternoon." Du Zhanrong stood up and glanced at her coldly. "Do you think I can eat when I see your hypocritical face?"
Ye Mingmei also quickly stood up, only then realizing that something was wrong with the atmosphere between them.
"Mingmei, let's go." Du Zhanrong took big steps.
"Oh!" Ye Mingmei took the things and said, "Secretary Song, see you this afternoon!"
"Hurry up! Be careful when getting close to this kind of person, don't let him sell you out!" Du Zhanrong was almost furious.
However, it was Du Zhanrong who said that he couldn't eat with her, and it was also Du Zhanrong who said that everyone should get to know each other during dinner for the participants of this cooperation project. So after both parties introduced their people at the meeting in the afternoon, he asked Ye Mingmei to book the hotel first.
Although nothing crucial was discussed during the entire meeting, since He Qian was not there, Du Zhanrong was always sarcastic or mocking Song Li, his words like a blade, his words like a knife...
Everyone was wondering, could it be that Du Zhanrong had failed in his pursuit of Song Li and had become narrow-minded? Or had Song Li done something to offend Du Zhanrong?
No one on either side dared to breathe or interrupt, and watched Song Li being humiliated from time to time, while Song Li gritted his teeth and endured until the end of the meeting.
He Lin was worried for her, but Song Li felt fine. Twelve years of torture from He Qian had already made her strong and tough. This was nothing...
The more indifferent she was, the more angry Du Zhanrong became.
There were more than a dozen people in the group. During the dinner, the people from Qihang seemed to have agreed in advance that everyone would take turns coming over to drink with Song Li...
"Secretary Song really has a good alcohol tolerance..."
"Of course, he's Mr. He's golden assistant! Many of the cases that Mr. He couldn't handle were handled by Secretary Song!"
"No wonder Qi Liang has such a wide network of contacts and such stable resources! Secretary Song... could you please share your experience?"
The group of people were drunk, and Song Li also started to feel the alcohol in his head.
Du Zhanrong ate the entire dinner by himself. Apart from a few words with He Lin, although he did not say any harsh words to Song Li throughout the whole process, his sharp eyes never left Song Li!
His men went to Song Li one by one to have a drink, but he didn't say anything. Everyone could see that Du Zhanrong and Song Li were fighting!
Song Li's nose started to get stuffy, and his head felt heavy and dizzy. "I need to go to the bathroom."
There is a bathroom in this compartment, and Song Li insisted on going out. The smell of cigarettes and alcohol was pungent and she felt very uncomfortable, so she wanted to go out and get some fresh air.
He Lin was just about to ask someone to follow her, as her condition was getting worse and worse. If anything happened to her, it would be a capital crime in He Qian's eyes!
Before the young assistant stood up, Du Zhanrong caught up with Song Li. When opening the door, he winked at his people, stopping others from coming out.
Song Li held onto the wall and stumbled all the way to the lobby. The bright golden light was a bit dazzling...
The heating, the sandalwood, the piano music... She used to be very familiar with this place. In the center of the lobby, beneath the crystal chandelier, was a pure white grand piano. She used to accompany Song Youran to play here...
Du Zhanrong followed her stumbling figure to the lobby, but she was motionless, staring at the piano in a daze...
The elevator door opposite opened and a group of people came out. The restless sound attracted Song Li's attention.
It was Luo Songjiang! The beast who destroyed Song Youran!
Song Li rushed over without even thinking and picked up the ashtray on the table!
Luo Songjiang also saw her. Seeing that she was coming with a fierce momentum and weapons in her hands, several people around her quickly stepped forward to stop her.
Du Zhanrong trotted after him. When he had someone investigate Song Li some time ago, he had found out about her sister's lawsuit, which was against this dandy son of the Luo family. During this festive occasion, Song Li was drunk again, and he was worried about something happening.
"Hey! Sister Song Li!" Luo Songjiang said with a ruffian air, "What a coincidence? Looking for fun? Oh, Master Du is here too!"
Du Zhanrong noticed something was wrong with Song Li at this time. Her anger at this moment did not seem like she was drunk, but rather she looked like she wanted to avenge a long-standing grudge!
"Luo Songjiang! You scumbag!" Song Li pushed away the person who was holding him, and wanted to pass the ashtray over, but was stopped again.
Luo Songjiang relied on his numbers and said, "Sister Song Li, don't overestimate your abilities. You couldn't beat me three years ago. What? Are you not convinced? Don't act like a dog-skin plaster no matter what!"
"Luo Songjiang, don't be too proud! One day, I will make you die an ugly death!"
Du Zhanrong watched her lose control and curse loudly. Was it because she lost the lawsuit three years ago and cut off her source of income that she couldn't stand seeing Luo Songjiang being proud?
"The taste of your sister... I still savor it till now! I wonder... what does your sister taste like? Hahaha..." As he said that, Luo Songjiang reached out to lift her chin.
Then everyone burst into laughter!
"Behave yourself! Stop touching me!" Du Zhanrong stepped forward and pushed Luo Songjiang away. Was he admitting that he had played with Song Li's sister?
When Song Li heard this, she became even more enraged, but there were so many of them that they surrounded her!
At this time, there was a lot of commotion at the lobby entrance. Several men in black came in from the main door in a mighty manner. Their majestic aura was suffocating. The one walking in front was He Shuxing, He Qian's uncle.
"Second Master!" Luo Songjiang and his entourage greeted him like a pug.
He Shuxing took a quick look from a distance and glanced at Song Li. It seemed that Song Li had drunk three rounds of wine and could hardly stand.
"She wanted to hit me!" Luo Songjiang pointed at Song Li and the ashtray in her hand, "Second Master, quickly deal with her!"
Considering that Luo Songjiang had gotten into trouble several times, his family had always turned to He Shuxing for help. The same was true for Song Youran's incident. The Luo family had turned to He Shuxing, and He Shuxing had turned to He Qian.
He Shuxing's expression was unpredictable, and no one knew how he would react. He was actually annoyed with this brat, and if it weren't for the favor he felt for the Luo family elders, he would have wanted to teach him a lesson.
"She is not under my care, she is under my nephew's care." This sentence made everyone present boo.
Du Zhanrong finally understood the saying "Everyone who knows He Qian knows Song Li", and why his mother, who always couldn't tolerate any sand in her heart, didn't dare to be ruthless to Song Li that time...
Who is He Shuxing? He is a man who has a connection with black, white and gray and can call the wind and rain. He knows clearly where Song Li's position lies.
To teach Song Li a lesson, He Qian had to allow it, even though He Shuxing was He Qian's elder.
