Europe, some scenic town.

In a small, stylish building, Bai Jinxuan stood in front of the windowsill and looked down at the empty street, looking a little tired.

Creaking, the door opened from the outside.

It was a woman in her twenties who said, "Jin Xuan, I made you some porridge. Eat some, don't get hungry. ”

Baijin turned around and looked at her with no expression, "Holly, how long are you going to keep me locked up? ”

Holly smiled bitterly, “Jin Xuan, President Qin spoke to you personally and let you rest here for a while. We just work, the boss said, do whatever he wants. ”

“Turns out it's Chief Qin. ”

Bai Jinxuan thought of the man with the usual charitable eyebrows, but he didn't feel too angry in his heart. Chief Qin was definitely a businessman. She just didn't expect him to be so decisive, to give orders so quickly, not to give her time to react.

Originally, according to the plan, she was going to take part in a tourist art show in another country, and as a result, halfway through, she was tricked into saying she was going to transfer, and was sent here unprotectedly, and her cell phone and passport were taken.

Now that she is in an exotic country, she doesn't understand the language and doesn't know where to run. The conversation is not connected to the outside world. She didn't care about anything else. She was worried that after Chen Xu saw the news, and added that she couldn't wait to reply, what misunderstanding would arise.

She was anxious, but there was nothing she could do. Someone more trustworthy, such as Fang Fang and several other assistants, were temporarily in trouble and did not follow. If you want to come now, it must be President Qin's hands and feet.

She asked, "Where's Director Shaw? ”

Holly glanced back outside the house and whispered, "I heard Director Shao went to fight with President Qin and was transferred by Chief Qin. He stopped caring about the artist. ”

“Rest in peace here. In two days, Qin will come and see you personally. ”

Baijin announced that she was leaving, grabbed her hand and whispered, "Can I borrow your phone for a second? ”

Holly sighed and said, "My phone was taken away before I came up. I can't help you. This porridge, you should eat a little, nothing else, eat enough to fight them. ”

After that, she left.

When the door closed again, Bai Jinchuan could not have imagined, sitting on the chair, looking at the pot of porridge and two small dishes.

After a while, she walked over, filled a bowl of porridge and ate it with vegetables. She knew that she couldn't count on Aunt Shaw entirely. In the end, it's up to you. Holly is right. If she doesn't eat enough, there's no way to fight President Qin's people.

She and Chief Qin contradicted each other, saying that it was only a matter of interest to go to hell. As long as Qin always wants to earn money from her, everything has to be talked about. Her chips are pitiful, but one thing is, she has the ability to lift the table. As long as she shows her determination, President Qin will not go too far.

As she thought, she ate a bowl of porridge in a large mouthful and then filled another bowl.

…………

May 1st, sunny.

Chen Xu stood on the side of the road and measured the pedestrians around him.

“It's a nice place, and the rent isn't expensive. Most importantly, you don't have to pay the transfer fee to sign a contract for a few more years. Where did you find it?” Old Tang walked out of a store behind him and was surprised.

Chen Xu turned around and smiled. “I commissioned several intermediaries. One of them called me in the middle of the night and said there was a good place. I came to look at the terms and immediately signed the contract. ”

“Then you're kind of picking up big cheaps.” Old Tang exclaimed, "The location is better than your first store and the front door is bigger. Just redecorate it, open it, and make sure the business flourishes. ”

Chen Xu said, "Most importantly, this is not far from the first store. ”

Old Tang said, "But, as a matter of principle, this kind of place shouldn't be out of rent. How did you meet me? ”

“I heard that the last tenant here was a rogue, and after a year of rent delays, he couldn't get rid of it. It seemed like it was dark, and the landlord couldn't help it. I ran into the darkness sweep and was caught the other day. The landlord took the store back and I ran into him trying to rent it out quickly. ”

Chen Xu explained the previous consequences, "The landlord said the rent could be negotiated, but the rent had to be paid for two years first. Probably scared. ”

“So that's it. Looks like you're starting to work too.” Don said, seeing him staring at the car on the road, he asked, “Why, you don't seem happy. ”

Chen Xu touched a pack of cigarettes and passed one over. After lighting it, he took a deep breath and breathed out a long breath. He said, "I just think it's a little too coincidental. ”

“Too coincidental?” Old Tang used to be quite addicted to tobacco. In order to have children, he gave up. After the child was born, he occasionally smoked one. Every time he smoked it, the motion look was very cherished.

Chen Xu shook his head and said, "Maybe I've been thinking too much. ”

They stood in the shade of the road and quietly smoked a cigarette.

After a while, Old Tang asked, "What are you going to do about it? ”

“I think the last store was nicely decorated, refined and concise, according to that style. ”

Chen Xu already had an idea. “The college girl who sublet me learned design. I asked her. She designed the renovation of that store...”

In the talking room, a red blue bird parked on the side of the road, a young girl came down and said hello to them, "Chen Xu, Tang Wenhai, I'm sorry I'm late. ”

“We're early.” Chen Xu smiled, “the shop is right over there, I'll show you. ”

The girl's name is Xu Xiao Xiao, and her face is sweet. Compared to a few months ago, there has been a significant change, both in clothing style and makeup, and it is obvious that a green college girl has changed towards a young, fashionable urban girl.

“Chen Xu, I can't tell. You can do business so well. It's only been a few months and you're about to open a branch.” Xu Xiaoxiao walked and exclaimed, "We couldn't do it. The same shop, in our hands, is half dead, at the expense of spitting blood. ”

Chen Xu said, "You just don't have the experience. ”

“Forget it, after this, I saw clearly that I had no business mind at all. Let's work honestly. ”

Chen Xu asked casually, "Which company do you work for now? ”

“Sang-yun Design. ”

"That's the highest paid design company in the industry," said Old Tang Xuan. “I hear the competition is very fierce. ”

Xu Xiaoxiao smiled, “Have you heard of our company? ”

“My wife used to learn design, but then she moved on.” Old Don said.

“So that's it. ”

The three of us were in the talking room, and Xu Xiaoxiao began to gauge the store and said, “The location and layout are very nice. The rent is definitely not cheap. ”

“It's okay. ”

“Well, here I go.” Xu Xiaoxiao took out the ruler and made measurements on the pavement.

“Then let's smoke outside.” Chen Xu said, taking Old Tang to the place where he had just smoked. One at a time.

He asked, "What does Sang-yun design start with? ”

“A design company with a high standard and a strong relationship. We have worked with many large companies, and the company's headquarters was redecorated in the previous two years, and they were asked to design it. ”

Chen Xu asked, "What's their boss's last name? ”

“The last name, it's a woman, it's amazing. It is said that a student of a master architect in the United States, who later returned home to start a business, soon gained fame. ”

Chen Xu asked, "She must be quite young. ”

“Around forty, in this line of work, you're quite young.” Don said, "What are you doing asking? ”

Chen Xu shook his head and said, "Nothing, I thought it was an acquaintance of mine. I think it was a mistake. ”

When Tang saw him say that, he didn't ask much. He took a look at Xu Xiaoxiao, who was busy in the store, and said, "What makes me think that she seems to have a little interest in you? ”

“You can't say that nonsense.” Chen Xu said, unconsciously frowning.

Old Tang smiled and didn't continue the conversation, “You've been picking up Chief Luo from work these past few days, right? ”

“Well, she was afraid I'd be gossiped and wouldn't let me up. ”

“If you don't go up there, someone else can guess. These days Ro always leaves a few minutes in advance, and then you two are discussed there. ”

Chen Xu laughed, “You didn't say anything too bad. ”

“And no one would say that in front of everyone. I'm sure there will be, privately. You, taking advantage of such a great deal, no one is allowed to talk? Let me tell you something, you're about to become the male enemy of the whole building. If you love President Luo publicly, maybe someone will sneak up on your little man. ”

Chen Xu can imagine what they would say.

He had a classmate in college, who was secretly in love with a girl in high school, and in his senior year, he suddenly realized that the girl had been with a boy he had never seen before, and his mentality had collapsed.

According to that classmate, whoever she was with, he wouldn't react so much, more than a man he looked down on, and that feeling was worse than being fed a bite of shit.

Chen Xu felt that most of the people in the company were in a similar mood.

He asked about the company, “How's it going with Fang Dong? ”

“Didn't Ro ever tell you? ”

“I was with her and never talked about work.” Chen Xu said that he had dinner with her these past few days and was talking about dreams. They all had some confusion about each other, and it was only after they had talked about it that they suddenly found it interesting to help each other.

Old Tang said, "That's about it. About half a month from now, it's going to be officially launched. We'll definitely be busy then. ”

Chen Xu reckoned, "Well, at that time, the noodle shop at my branch was almost open, and it was busy. ”

The two chatted for a while and the sun started to rise and the weather was too hot and they ran back into the store.

Just in time, Xu Xiaoxiao had some decorations to ask him, so he sat together and discussed them.

Unconsciously, it's noon.

“Let's go, eat.” Chen Xu said, "What do you want to eat? ”

Xu Xiaoxiao said, "Take your ideas, I can do whatever you want. ”

Old Tang also said, "Anything. ”

“Then go to the restaurant across the street. People say it's a nice place.” Chen Xu said, standing up, "you go first, I'll wait for my girlfriend to come. ”

Xu Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Okay.” Go with Don first.
