Chapter 445 Zhou Guoqing is boring
Xia Songlan had just taken a sip of water and was still a little absent-minded. When she heard the man's voice, she choked on the water and coughed several times.
The man was very outgoing and raised his hand to pat her on the back to help her calm down.
Xia Songlan caught sight of him out of the corner of her eye and quickly turned sideways to avoid the man's outstretched hand.
Only then did she see clearly that the person talking to her was actually Zhou Guoqing.
It arrived at that moment, which surprised her a little.
She hasn't seen Zhou Guoqing for several years.
The last time we met was when Zhou Guoqing was discharged from the hospital. At that time, he was so thin that he was unrecognizable, with only skin and bones covering his body.
Now he is dressed like a successful person and looks like a decent person.
Xia Songlan thought about the fact that she had heard that Zhou Guoqing was laid off before, and guessed that he had found a new job and seemed to be doing well.
Zhou Guoqing also noticed the surprise in Xia Songlan's eyes and explained with a smile, "A friend of mine was invited to the banquet, and I happened to have some time, so I came over to have a good meal."
His tone was particularly frank, and he didn't feel ashamed for saying he was just here to get a free meal.
This made Xia Songlan look at him with new eyes.
She nodded distantly and took a step back.
Xia Songlan could not like the male protagonist in the original book at all and wished she would never have anything to do with him again.
I was afraid that if I got too close to him, I would be affected by the plot.
But her instinctive action made Zhou Guoqing frown slightly, and the smile on his face almost disappeared.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally said, "We haven't seen each other for many years, and you are still so distant. After all, we are relatives, right?"
Xia Songlan sneered, "I dare not. Xia Juanjuan has severed all ties with us now, not to mention her husband who has not been seen for a long time. How can he be considered a relative?"
"Alas!" Zhou Guoqing sighed helplessly, "You are the most reasonable person, you should understand that a forced melon is not sweet.
We had no feelings for each other, but she insisted on not getting a divorce. Now she has disappeared and I can't contact her.
I thought she just liked to torture me, but I didn't expect that she was so cold to her relatives and even went to the point of breaking off relations with you.
That must be because she is ignorant. If I really saw her, I would definitely give her a lecture."
He was still racking his brains to find a topic to talk about, but Xia Songlan had already turned around and was about to leave.
He quickly said, "Can I ask you a question?"
The voice sounded particularly urgent, and even the expression was nervous.
Xia Songlan didn't want to pay attention to him, but Zhou Guoqing had already quickly stood in front of her, so she had to stop and look at him coldly.
Zhou Guoqing's heart trembled when he was looked at by Xia Songlan's watery eyes. He really hoped that these eyes would only look at him forever.
He unconsciously clenched his hands, which were hanging by his trousers, into fists, and then unclenched them.
Seemingly extremely concerned, she asked, "Are you happy? Is he good to you?"
Xia Songlan said coldly, "Do I need to report to you?"
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Zhou Guoqing chased for two steps and saw Zhang Beichen had already walked to Xia Songlan's side and glared at him warningly.
Zhou Guoqing sighed in disappointment, raised the wine glass in his hand towards Zhang Beichen, then turned around to look for his friends.
He just told Xia Songlan that he came here with a friend, and he really didn't lie.
After Zhou Guoqing returned from Country X, he was no longer satisfied with the current production scale.
They planned to build a small chemical plant as a cover and then expand the scale of production.
It just so happened that Duan Juan knew the owner of a chemical factory.
So I introduced Zhou Guoqing to the boss.
The boss’s surname is Zhang. He is extremely lustful and is well-known in the circle.
Zhou Guoqing asked Duan Juan to find a few beautiful women to accompany him, and coaxed Boss Zhang around. Now Boss Zhang has been completely won over by Zhou Guoqing.
Next, Boss Zhang prepared to introduce all the acquaintances and friends he had made through various business connections to Zhou Guoqing.
Complete the relevant preliminary procedures for the completion of Zhou Guoqing's factory.
Today, Boss Zhang happened to be drinking with Zhou Guoqing at Duan Juan's place and they were having a great time.
He originally didn't plan to come to Zhang Beichen's party.
In his own words, "That guy and I are not the same kind of people, his ancestors have been in business for three generations.
I am a latecomer, and they don’t think highly of me. Sending me an invitation is just a face-saving project.”
When Zhou Guoqing heard that it was Zhang Beichen, he knew the relationship between Zhang Beichen and Xia Songlan.
Thinking about the person he sent to follow Xia Songlan two days ago who had disappeared, he felt anxious and irritated, but he just couldn't find the person.
He didn't think that his people were captured by Ning Jingmo, but just thought that the man betrayed him and ran away with the money.
When he came back from Country X, he felt like there was a cat's paw in his heart, scratching it from time to time, wanting to see Xia Songlan immediately.
I had only half hope, but unexpectedly I was lucky enough to meet Xia Songlan at the banquet.
When Xia Songlan, wearing a goose yellow evening dress, walked into the banquet hall arm in arm with Zhang Beichen, she stunned everyone present.
Of course, this also includes Zhou Guoqing.
Zhou Guoqing wished he could find someone to remove Zhang Beichen's arm, and then offer his own arm to Xia Songlan.
But I can only think about it.
After seeing Zhang Beichen introduce Xia Songlan to several acquaintances, Xia Songlan went to the corner to eat.
He looked at Xia Songlan, who was like a quiet orchid, alone in a room but exuding a faint fragrance. He couldn't help but control his steps and went up to her to greet her.
He originally thought that his current appearance would surely make Xia Songlan look at him differently, but he didn't expect that he was still as indifferent and distant as before.
Zhou Guoqing stood next to Boss Zhang, and watched Xia Songlan talking to others with a smile through the crowd.
The bitterness in my heart almost broke, and my mouth was full of bitterness.
He also thought that he had earned so much money in such a short period of time, and that none of the women he had met did not love money.
Zhou Guoqing secretly decided that he must expand the scale of production as quickly as possible, speed up the drug production process, and strive to multiply the money in his hands several times.
He must make Xia Songlan look at him with new eyes.
Xia Songlan didn't expect to meet Zhou Guoqing today, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
Zhang Beichen also knew what Zhou Guoqing had done, and he understood that Xia Songlan didn't like such occasions.
Arrange a driver to send Xia Songlan back first.
Xia Songlan refused, "No need to send me off, I can just take a taxi back by myself."
"Let the driver take you there! You're dressed so beautifully. If I take a taxi back, Jing Mo might see you and blame me."
Facing Zhang Beichen's teasing, Xia Songlan smiled and nodded in agreement.
When Ning Jingmo returned home in the evening, Xia Songlan told him about what happened to Zhou Guoqing today.
"I don't know what kind of shit luck I have this National Day. I look like a successful person today."
"What a successful person, he is just trying to please others. Stay away from him when you see him next time."
Xia Songlan nodded. "I just feel that he has changed a little bit from before, but where exactly? I can't tell."
Ning Jingmo arranged people to investigate Zhou Guoqing, but unfortunately Zhou Guoqing was extremely cunning. At present, he looked like just an ordinary businessman and no abnormalities could be found.
But there are indeed many suspicious points. As long as we dig deeper, we will be able to find the crux of the problem.
Ning Jingmo was worried that Xia Songlan would be nervous if she knew that Zhou Guoqing arranged for someone to take photos of her, so he did not mention it.
But before going to bed, he once again said: "If you meet him again in the future, first of all, you must pay attention to safety, stay away from him as much as possible, and don't be alone with him.
Second, when you go out in the near future, you should pay more attention to the people and things around you and remain vigilant at all times.
If you are in danger, tell me immediately."
He suddenly said this, and Xia Songlan's heart tightened, "Do you know something? What happened?"
Ning Jingmo rubbed her hair and smiled gently, "I don't know anything. It's just a man's instinct. You just think I'm jealous again, right?"
Xia Songlan smiled and pushed him, "I can't even be annoyed with him, so why should I be jealous of him?"
"Of course I know you don't like him, but it's a man's instinct. Just treat me as a jealous person. You can't let other men think about you anyway."
After Ning Jingmo finished speaking, he was afraid that Xia Songlan would ask more questions, so he leaned over and blocked her mouth with his lips.
What follows is a night of beautiful spring scenery.
