Chapter 61 (1/2)
The next morning, Xiao Chen took them to ennan.
They arrived almost at the same time as Zhao's father and son. The four met in the spacious lobby of the office building. Li Shuo and Zhao Jinxin met each other with each other's eyes, pretending to say hello.
Zhao Jinxin is indeed a little haggard. Although he has cleaned himself up, he still can't hide the depression of spirit and spirit. Li Shuo suspiciously ignores Zhao Jinxin's eyes and follows his father step by step.
The two dads are tacit. They discuss the nervous market when they meet, but the young people behind are silent all the way.
Zhao Rongtian called all the executives of the branch company to the small conference room for a meeting. At the meeting, Zhao Jinxin apologized for his behavior during this period of time. Zhao Rongtian also scolded him. His words were quite merciless. Zhao Jinxin always looked down and listened. He seemed to have a very sincere attitude. Several executives said good words to him. As soon as the father and son sing together, things will be over.
Then we started talking about business.
Zhao Rongtian spoke highly of the operation of ennan in this half year and expressed his strategic plan to shift the trade focus to the north.
Li Shuo lowers his head to take notes and looks up to Zhao Rongtian as a sign of politeness. But Zhao Jinxin is sitting next to Zhao Rongtian. He always feels that he has his eyes on him, which makes him a little upset. With his greatest professionalism, he concentrated his energy and never looked at Zhao Jinxin.
After the meeting, it was almost lunchtime. Zhao Rongtian booked a box in the hotel opposite the office building. He invited the executives to have a meal. The chairman of the group came. The executives naturally flattered and began to drink at noon.
Li Shuo sat aside and quietly stopped his father's drink. The whole meal, only Li Shuo was neither a leader, nor a senior executive, or even a person of the company. It was the safest for him to have an atmosphere for the meal, so he had a double drink alone, and soon had some difficulty.
Li Shuo stood up as usual and prepared to drink for his father. The glass was being sent to his mouth, but it was suddenly taken away without trace. Li Shuo was stunned and looked at Zhao Jinxin who did not know when to stand by.
Zhao Jinxin smiled at the senior manager: ”Mr. Zhang, my uncle is not in good health. My eldest brother is too drunk. I'll take care of this cup.” Finish saying not wait for the other side reaction, looked up a glass of wine to drink a clean.
Li Shuo looks at Zhao Jinxin in a daze, and Mr. Li is also thoughtful.
It's hard for the chief executive to say anything, but these people usually don't take Zhao Jinxin for granted. After all, they are ”leaders” of the same age as their children. They just dropped the chain a while ago. When they saw Zhao Jinxin was going to replace him, they would not let it go easily. They all came over one by one, and gave Zhao Jinxin credit on the basis of respecting Mr. Li.
Zhao Rongtian also does not play round, obviously is wants to take the opportunity to educate the son.
Lishuo's face was a little gloomy. He didn't appreciate it. He watched Zhao Jinxin help him drink. He ate too many losses. He would never be moved by Zhao Jinxin's ”kindness”. Who knows the purpose behind that.
The executives of all departments gave a round of respect. Zhao Jinxin drank a half Jin of white wine alone. The more he drank, the whiter his face became. His red eyes made him look a little fragile and pitiful.
Drink almost, Zhao Rongtian said a few scene words, and left the table.
Zhao Jinxin takes a look at Li Shuo and whispers, ”are you ok?”
”Thank you. It's OK.” Li Shuo nodded expressionless, got up, and said to his father, ”Dad, Xiao Chen is waiting downstairs. Let's go home and have a rest.”
Mr. Li nodded, got up and patted Zhao Jinxin on the shoulder: ”Jinxin, thank you today.”
”Uncle, you are welcome.” Zhao Jinxin said something to Mr. Li, but he always looked at Li Shuo with watery eyes.
Li Shuo pretends not to see it. He doesn't know what moth Zhao Jinxin is playing with.
”Brother Li.” Zhao Jinxin held the chair and stood up shakily. ”Excuse me, can you help me to the bathroom?”
Li Shuo opened his mouth and nodded in front of so many people: ”Dad, wait for me downstairs.”
Everyone went out one after another. There were only two of them left in the box. Li Shuo closed the box door and said plainly, ”don't go to the bathroom. If you have anything to say, just say it here.”
Zhao Jinxin straightened his back and looked at Li Shuo deeply: ”I drank too much that day. In fact, I'm glad you came to see me.”
Lisho nodded, ”I know you're drunk.” In other words, Zhao Jinxin, the cunning Zhao Jinxin at ordinary times, would not say those rude words. If he was really drunk, he would tell the truth.
Zhao Jinxin touched his nose and said with some embarrassment, ”I don't look like that at this time, it's because of you.”
Li Shuo picked up his eyebrows and said, ”I'm not responsible for this. What do you want to say? Hurry up.”
Zhao Jinxin went forward a few steps, Li Shuo frowned, subconsciously followed a step back. Zhao Jinxin grabbed his arm and said softly, ”you won't be afraid of me, will you?”
Li Shuo laughs: ”what are you afraid of?”
”I don't know, but I feel like you're afraid of me.”Li Shuo looked into Zhao Jinxin's eyes: ”I think more.”
Zhao Jinxin leaned down to lishuo's ear and said, ”I really think a lot. Do you want to know what I think?”
Li Shuo pushed him aside and said coldly, ”I'm not interested.” He turned to the door.
”Lishuo.” Zhao Jinxin suddenly said, ”you win.” This sentence is accompanied by a sigh, as if bowing to a certain force.
Lishuodundun, did not understand Zhao Jinxin this nonsense is what it means, he did not want to know, he opened the door, left the box.
