Chapter 997 I miss you so much, please don’t leave me…
Banquet...meeting with Chang Pu?
Bai Xuqian had no recollection of it. He frowned and pondered hard, finally catching hold of fragments in his memory.
Was it the business banquet two weeks ago?
He did meet Zheng Hao at the venue, but not Chang Pu.
"Are you mistaken? That day I only saw..."
Before Bai Xuqian could finish his words, Zheng Hao's phone rang, so he had no choice but to answer the call.
Zheng Hao saw that it was Chang Pu calling, so he apologized to Bai Xuqian: "Mr. Bai, I have to take a call first."
Zheng Hao walked out of the office and answered the phone, avoiding Bai Xuqian.
Chang Pu's voice was low and calm, revealing his usual calmness: "Is Mr. Bai with you?"
"I'm outside, President Bai is in the office."
Zheng Hao was very curious.
It seems that Chang Pu is quite afraid of Bai Xuqian. What exactly happened between these two people?
"Brother Chang, did something happen between you and Mr. Bai?"
"I don't want him to see me. Please help me get him to leave Huo's first. Also, don't mention me too much in front of him. It's best not to say anything at all."
Zheng Hao was full of questions and wanted to get to the bottom of the matter, but Chang Pu's voice was too serious, making him realize the seriousness of the matter.
Zheng Hao suppressed the doubts in his heart and found an excuse to take Bai Xuqian to the Finance Department.
During this period, he never mentioned Chang Pu again.
Soon, Bai Xuqian's attention was attracted by work, and he did not ask him about Chang Pu anymore.
Zheng Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that the time was almost up, he sent Bai Xuqian out of the Huo Group.
After watching Bai Xuqian's car leave the parking lot, Zheng Hao turned around and returned to the top floor.
He knocked on Chang Pu's office door, but no one answered.
The receptionist came over and said, "Assistant Zheng, Assistant Chang is on a business trip to City N."
Zheng Hao knew that Chang Pu had no plans to go abroad this week, so why would he suddenly go on a business trip?
"Is there a problem with the N City project?"
The receptionist said, "I don't know the specifics. Assistant Chang said he sent you a work schedule via email."
"Thanks!"
After thanking him, Zheng Hao opened his phone, looked at the emails and walked towards the office.
But he only took a few steps before he suddenly stopped.
strangeness! ! !
This was a temporary work adjustment, and the project that Chang Pu was responsible for was originally followed up by another assistant.
Why was there a sudden change?
Zheng Hao called Chang Pu and asked, "Brother Chang, why are you suddenly on a business trip?"
"There's something going on in City N that needs to be taken care of. I won't be in the company for the time being. Please pay more attention to the project."
"Brother Chang, this is too sudden! Have you been exiled to the frontier by President Huo?"
"...Not Mr. Huo."
"Then why did you leave so suddenly? I didn't even have the chance to say goodbye to you."
"It's not like I won't be back."
The gloomy voice that came over made Zheng Hao dare not say anything more. He immediately said seriously: "Brother Chang, you can go without worry! I'll take care of the company here, and I will also take good care of Qiguang Company."
"Be honest and don't try to take advantage of Mr. Bai."
"Hmm? Mr. Bai... no... Mr. Bai and I..."
Before Zheng Hao could finish his explanation, Chang Pu had already hung up the phone.
"Hey! Brother Chang..."
He looked at the screen and always felt that Chang Pu's tone was strange when he mentioned Bai Xuqian just now.
No way? !!!
Could it be that Brother Chang and Mr. Bai are in love?
If they were a couple in love, why did Mr. Bai sound so unfamiliar when he mentioned Brother Chang?
And why did Brother Chang take the initiative to transfer to City N?
Something is wrong!
Something is wrong!
-
Chang Pu had been in City N for a week, but still hadn't received any message from Bai Xuqian asking him out.
He waited day after day, waiting for Bai Xuqian to contact him, but in the end all he got was loneliness.
It was two weeks later that Chang Pu returned to Kyoto to attend the year-end summary meeting.
As the year draws to a close, a lot of summaries need to be prepared.
He was busy in the office for a long time and had a summary report meeting.
After the lecture, there is a banquet.
Chang Pu wanted to find an excuse to leave, but was forcibly dragged to the table by several senior executives.
Somehow, the topic of conversation shifted from business to life while we were drinking and chatting.
"Assistant Chang is still single, right? I have a niece..."
"I have someone I like, and I want to spend the rest of my life with him."
Chang Pu answered promptly and clearly, and his tone of voice showed that he was the only one who could do so, letting the senior executives around him know how important this person was to Chang Pu.
The senior executive immediately changed the subject and asked about Chang Pu's current relationship status: "How is it going?"
This question made Chang Pu's heart ache.
They used to get along very well, but because of his greed they are about to become strangers.
Chang Pu raised the wine glass to his lips, hiding the bitter smile on his lips: "Almost!"
There will be a result soon.
Bai Xuqian should end his relationship with him soon.
"It looks like something good is about to happen. If you have a wedding, you must invite us to the wedding banquet."
Chang Pu just smiled bitterly, with a deep sense of bitterness accumulating in his chest, making him speechless.
It's easy to get drunk when you're not in good condition.
When Chang Pu got into the car, his head was spinning, but a figure was particularly clear in his mind.
He shook his head vigorously, trying to shake off the figure that controlled his thoughts.
But it's no use,
The more he wanted to forget, the more deeply he remembered it.
"Sir, are you driving now?"
The driver's questioning voice made Chang Pu slowly raise his head.
There was a gleam of water in his red eyes, and there was deep pain in those eyes.
The designated driver sighed: "Alas! Another sad person."
The melodious ringing sounded in the quiet room.
A hand emerged from under the covers and reached towards the room where the nightstand was, fingers finding the ringing phone.
Bai Xuqian forced himself to open one eye and tried to look at the screen.
Sleepiness clouded his eyes, preventing him from seeing the caller ID clearly, but he subconsciously answered the call.
Before he could say anything, a vague male voice came from the receiver: "I... miss you so much."
This sound...
Bai Xuqian suddenly lost all his sleepiness.
He took the phone from his ear and clearly saw the caller's name on the screen.
Big Eagle Brother
After not contacting him for more than half a month, I suddenly called him late at night.
But the man only said one sentence from beginning to end.
I miss you so much
These four words were spoken lightly, with a strong nasal tone, and seemed very vague in the quiet night, but they were clearly imprinted in Bai Xuqian's heart, imprinted over and over again, and were extremely profound.
His breathing became heavy, but there seemed to be something blocking his throat, preventing him from opening his mouth.
The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly changed: "Hello! This gentleman is drunk. I'm your designated driver. I was supposed to take him home, but he said he's not going home no matter what. Now the car is parked on the side of the road."
Bai Xuqian was shocked: "Is he drunk?"
"He drank quite a lot and reeks of alcohol." The designated driver was embarrassed: "Sir, can you come pick him up? I have work to do here and can't stay on the roadside for too long."
"Please tell me the exact location, I'll go there now."
Bai Xuqian lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
He didn't have time to change his clothes, so he put on his coat and quickly walked out of the house.
According to the address given by the designated driver, Bai Xuqian took a taxi to find it.
From a distance, I saw two figures, one sitting and one standing, on the roadside.
As soon as he got out of the car, the man sitting on the ground reached out and hugged his waist, put his head against his lower abdomen and rubbed it gently.
"..." Bai Xuqian was speechless and raised his hand to push the man's head.
Not pushed open!
Noticing the driver's inquiring gaze, Bai Xuqian gave an awkward smile: "He was drunk and his behavior was out of control. Sorry for taking so long today."
Bai Xuqian paid for the designated driver, and the driver rode away on his bike.
The streets are deserted late at night.
The temperature in Kyoto at the end of the year is very low, and the air is filled with a strong chill.
Bai Xuqian grabbed the man's arm and said, "Get up! I'll take you home."
The man raised his head.
The streetlight was behind him.
Bai Xuqian clearly saw the loneliness and grievance in his eyes, and the sparkling water light made him look particularly pitiful.
Bai Xuqian felt as if his heart was stabbed hard by something, and he frowned in pain.
He took a breath and his voice softened unconsciously: "Be good! Stand up from the ground. I'll take you home now."
"Let's go home together."
The man tightened his arms around his waist, as if he was afraid that he would disappear if he let go.
Bai Xuqian was strangled to the point of being unable to breathe, and slapped him on the head: "Let go! If you don't let go, I'll leave."
"Don't leave!"
The man domineeringly rubbed him into his arms, his hoarse voice choked with sobs: "Don't... don't leave me."
Bai Xuqian knew he shouldn't sympathize with him, but his behavior was completely out of control.
He sighed: "When did I say I didn't want you?"
"You don't contact me."
The man felt aggrieved and said in an accusing tone: "It's been a long time since you contacted me."
"You haven't contacted me either? Have you sent me any messages or called me in all this time?"
Bai Xuqian said angrily, "In my opinion, we have ended our relationship."
"no!"
The man suddenly stood up from the ground excitedly, staring at him with red eyes: "You are not allowed to terminate the relationship."
Bai Xuqian fixed his gaze on him, "Actually, you're not so drunk that your consciousness is out of control."
Chang Pu's eyes flashed.
He has a good alcohol tolerance, so the wine he drank tonight won't make him completely drunk.
He had no reason to meet Bai Xuqian, so he could only achieve his goal by getting drunk.
"You're an assistant, so you have to go out for social events every day. You should be able to drink quite well. You don't smell very strongly of alcohol today, so you didn't drink much."
Bai Xuqian raised his foot and kicked him: "Come on! I'll take you home."
Chang Pu reached out and straightened the open collar of Bai Xuqian's coat. "It's so windy tonight, why did you go out wearing only a coat?"
"Why do you say that? I'm just afraid you'll be thrown on the side of the road."
In weather like this in Kyoto, a drunkard would definitely freeze to death on the roadside.
"You care about me."
Chang Pu took a step forward and put his arms around Bai Xuqian's body: "Be with me! Let's have a serious relationship."
"Haven't you figured one thing out yet? I've never thought about falling in love. If I had that in mind, we wouldn't have met."
Bai Xuqian raised his hand to push him away, walked over and opened the passenger door, and signaled the man to get in the car with his eyes: "Hurry up and get in the car. If you delay any longer this afternoon, I will leave you alone."
Chang Pu stood with a frown on his face,
Turning around and looking at him,
The light from the street lamp fell on his eyes, but the light still couldn't dispel the melancholy in his eyes: "Can we only be friends with benefits?"
