Ruan Qingqing sat in the room and picked up her cell phone. She suddenly had the urge to talk to Chen Muyun, but she felt she had nothing to say. She looked at him for a while and put it down again.
Just get to work.
She spent the entire afternoon immersed in work, conceiving entrepreneurial plans and sorting out preparatory work.
When the sun sets, she lets out a long sigh and turns off the computer. She is now calm and her eyes are filled with sober reality.
She suddenly remembered that today was Saturday and Chen Muyun hadn't contacted her all day, which was not like him.
She texted: What are you doing?
A few minutes later, Chen Muyun called back. His tone was calm and gentle: "My boss asked me to work overtime today. I was so busy that I forgot to tell you. Did you miss me?"
"Would you like to have dinner together tonight?" Ruan Qingqing asked, "I always go to your place, why don't you come to my place?"
Chen Muyun paused, his tone becoming gentler: "I'm not done yet, so we can't eat together today. How about tomorrow? Or should we go to my cousin's place?"
"No."
Chen Muyun was surprised: "Why? Didn't you think it was delicious last time?"
"Even though he's a relative, it's not good to bother him every time to save a seat and give him a discount. And it's boring to eat in one place too many times. Why don't you come to my place? I'll take you to a cheap and delicious place."
Chen Muyun smiled: "Okay, okay, my wife is frugal and manages the household well, I will listen to her."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Muyun walked out of the empty private room and returned to the next room. Ruan Qingling was sitting at the table, and they had almost finished half of the food on the table.
At such times, Ruan Qingling never asked him who was calling. She just smiled and held her face with both hands and said, "If you don't come, I will finish this most delicious pork ribs with preserved plums."
The annoyance and guilt in Chen Muyun's heart were instantly soothed by her heartless love. He tapped her head and said, "Eat if you want to. You don't have to save any for me."
Ruan Qingling then picked up another piece of pork ribs and said, "I'm about to finish eating. What do you want to eat?"
"Eat you."
Ruan Qingling bit her lip and smiled. After a while, she kicked off her leather shoes and stepped on his thigh with one bare foot: "Eat this?"
Chen Muyun grabbed her feet and asked, "Isn't this what you eat?"
——
The next day at around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Ruan Qingqing had just returned from outside when she was called into her uncle Zheng Tao's office.
Zheng Tao smiled and said, "Qingqing, I have an appointment with the buyer, a very wealthy friend, to discuss the transfer of the nursing home and the two storefronts. They will arrive in two hours, in this room, you can come too, listen, and sign. That's all."
Ruan Qingqing looked at him.
Zheng Tao's expression remained unchanged: "Nothing else."
Ruan Qingqing asked: "Do you have the other party's detailed information and contract? I want to take a look first."
Zheng Tao frowned and said, "You still don't trust me?"
"No, I just want to understand it first so I can be prepared."
Zheng Tao waved his hand: "Okay, okay, I'll find it for you when I'm free."
As a result, after Ruan Qingqing returned to the room, half an hour passed and Zheng Tao still didn't bring the information. She went to his office again, but found the door locked and no one inside.
Ruan Qingqing suddenly became angry and punched the door. Then a sneer slowly appeared on her face and she turned around and strode back to her room.
She paused for a moment and thought that this was fine. No matter what happened in the end, she didn't have to worry about it anymore.
But deep down I felt uncomfortable and a little cold. Her uncle is the only close relative she has in this world.
He had been nice to her over the years. When she was a child, he carried her on his shoulders, took her out to play, and bought her candy.
When she was studying, when her parents were too busy, he ran around for her and took care of her life without any complaints. He and his aunt personally sent her to college.
But now, his aunt has passed away, and faced with the disposal of millions of assets and the future of dozens of children and employees, he hopes that she will shut up and become a decoration, waiting for him to make the decision on how to divide the money.
This incident happened too suddenly and caught Ruan Qingqing off guard. If she knew it a few days in advance, she could be better prepared to deal with it, collect necessary information, and judge whether the other party is reliable, whether the property can be sold, whether it should be sold, and whether the children and employees can be properly placed.
But now, she was in darkness, and there was only a little over an hour left, so it was too late to do anything.
When she really gets to the scene of signing the contract, she will be defenseless and can only be led by the nose - her uncle or the other party.
Ruan Qingqing forced herself to calm down, quickly thought of a solution, and sorted out the people she knew in Huaicheng to see if anyone could help.
She soon discovered that Chen Muyun was the best person to ask for help - he had a family background, had been back to Huaicheng longer than her, had many friends and broad knowledge, and worked in a government agency. With him around, she can feel more confident.
She immediately called Chen Muyun.
After seven or eight rings, he picked up the phone. His voice was as gentle as ever: "Qingqing, what's the matter?"
Ruan Qingqing told him the dilemma she was facing, and then asked, "Mu Yun, can you come over?"
Chen Muyun understood immediately: "Okay, I will be there before four o'clock and accompany you to meet them. Don't worry, with me here, no one can bully you or take advantage of you."
Ruan Qingqing thought that it was not just that she was afraid of being taken advantage of or involving financial interests, but it was just that it couldn't be explained in a few words over the phone, so she could only talk about it in person.
At around 3:50, Ruan Qingqing heard Zheng Tao coming back outside. She stopped asking him for information and sent another text message to Chen Muyun: "Where are you?"
No reply...
Ruan Qingqing was about to call when she heard a car sound outside. She walked out and saw an unfamiliar black BMW parked at the door.
Luo Pingjiang got out of the car, wearing a gray jacket and black trousers, looking casual yet businesslike. He closed the car door with his hand and looked up at her with a gentle and calm expression: "Qingqing, Chen Muyun had an emergency and couldn't come over, so he asked me to help. He has already told me the general situation."
Ruan Qingqing was stunned, and at this moment, her cell phone rang. It was Chen Muyun calling.
It sounded very noisy on the other end, as if they were outside. Chen Muyun's tone was guilty and hurried: "Qingqing, I'm really sorry, I received a call from my boss and asked me to go with him to deal with an urgent matter. It's quite important and I can't refuse. However, I asked Brother Jiang to come over. Is he here?"
"arrive."
"That's good. Actually, Qingqing, I've thought about it. Brother Jiang is more useful than me. He is a local boss with many friends. He runs his own shop and knows more about real estate transactions than me.
Just treat him as your own brother. Ask him when you don’t understand something and let him provide support when you need it. He is a very loyal person. Once he promises to help, he will really help. He is absolutely reliable. ”
Ruan Qingqing didn't know what to say for a moment, and finally said, "Okay, I understand. You just focus on your leadership and don't worry about me."
"I'm sorry, I will definitely make it up to you later," he said.
