VIP 128. My heart hurts to death
"Ms. Wen, I think you also know what news I want to hear most." Tang Qiaoen raised the corner of his mouth and said, "We plain people don't tell secrets. Can you give me a definite result today?"
"Miss Tang, you are also a smart person." Wen Qian also smiled and shook her wine glass: "If you want to know the result, you have to pay the price."
Tang Qiaoen felt that his face was a little stiff: "Ms. Wen, of course I understand this truth, but you won't reveal it to me at all, so how do I know if I will be deceived?"
"Since you can't trust me, then we have nothing to talk about!" Wen Qian lowered her face, stood up and left.
"Miss Wen!" Tang Qiaoen quickly grabbed Wen Qian's sleeve with a smile on his face: "You can leave just as you say, let's talk slowly!"
"What else do you want to say?" Wen Qian said with disdain in her eyes, "My time is precious and I can't afford to waste it with you."
"I know, so I prepared this." Tang Qiaoen took out a cash check from his bag and pushed it in front of Wen Qian.
Wen Qian lowered her eyes, looked at the amount on it, and the smile returned to her face: "Hey, Miss Tang, you are so polite!" She picked up the check and flicked it with her fingers: "Then I'll take it.
Get off." After saying that, he sat back down.
Tang Qiaoen looked at Wen Qian's look and felt extremely hateful. She thought, one day, you will not be able to laugh!
There was still a smile on her face: "Miss Wen, now we can have a good talk!"
"That's natural." Wen Qian looked at Tang Qiaoen: "Ms. Tang, what I'm saying now is all inside information. You have to listen carefully."
"You tell me."
"We at Shengshi Group are very interested in your MT company's project and want to invest..." Wen Qian said to Tang Qiaoen as planned.
"Really?" Tang Qiaoen was very excited after hearing Wen Qian's words.
"However... MT still has many problems, so I'm worried that after the second round of screening, we may give up investing in MT's projects."
"But, aren't you interested in our project?"
"We will not invest rashly just because we are interested." Wen Qian said seriously: "We at Shengshi do not do loss-making business. If the hardware facilities are not good, we will not do it even if we are interested in the project."
"I know that MT still has many shortcomings, so I need Shengshi's investment. With this investment, I promise that I will do a good job!" Tang Qiaoen excitedly took Wen Qian's hand.
Wen Qian smiled and shook her head: "I don't doubt your confidence, Miss Tang, but no matter how moving your speech is, you may not be able to impress Carrie Ho. She only looks at data and facts."
"That means that our MT has no chance?"
"It's not like there's no chance at all." Wen Qian said, "I can give you an idea."
"you say!"
"Tomorrow is the day when Shengshi Group announces the first batch of investment target companies. I will try my best to suggest to Carrie Ho that MT be included in it. After being selected, there will be one month of review time. You can use this month to perfect your
shortcomings."
Tang Qiaoen looked at the woman sitting opposite. Her face was full of smiles, but Tang Qiaoen was not sure whether this smile was true.
She knew that the method Wen Qian mentioned could indeed be tried, but her intuition told her that she could not believe this Wen Qian because she had played tricks on herself not once or twice.
But if she doesn't try the method she said, her company will have no choice but to go bankrupt!
She has invested all her money in this company. If it goes bankrupt, she will really have nothing.
When Wen Qian saw that Tang Qiaoen was silent and knew that she was suspicious, she smiled again: "What, Miss Tang, you don't believe me?"
"Why don't you believe it?" Tang Qiaoen came back to his senses: "It's just that I think our company's situation will probably not appear in the first batch of lists tomorrow."
"Then are you afraid that your check will not be worth it?" Wen Qian pushed the check back to Tang Qiaoen: "Then I will return it to you, and you can wait for the results tomorrow!"
"Miss Wen, I believe you!" Tang Qiaoen knew that if she took back the check, she would really not be on tomorrow's list.
No matter what, she should give it a try.
As long as Shengshi Group is willing to invest, her company will come back to life!

Shengshi Investment Public Press Conference.
He Jiayin sat on the stage, still wearing sunglasses on his face.
"Now, let me announce the shortlist of Shengshi Investment Project Companies." He Jiayin took the document and read out: "An's Industrial Group. Ruisheng Food Co., Ltd. MT Fashion Co., Ltd. Seven Star Electronics Group. Anling Energy Group. Announcement completed.
Yes, if you have any questions, you can ask me."
"Ms. Carrie Ho, why are China South Airlines and Tianyi Group, which everyone has been optimistic about before, not on the list?"
"China South Airlines and Shengshi Investment have had a stable cooperative relationship for a long time. This time we are mainly looking for new partners."
"Where is Yi Group that day?" the reporter asked in pursuit.
He Jiayin paused and then replied: "Tianyi Group is mainly engaged in real estate business. We at Shengshi Investment are not interested in real estate." After speaking, she smiled.
"So, the real estate industry will be in a downturn in the next few years?" Another reporter asked.
He Jiayin said: "I will not answer questions that have nothing to do with today's press conference."
"Then Ms. Carrie Ho, can you let us see your true face?" someone asked jokingly.
He Jiayin smiled without saying a word and stood up.
Wen Qian also stood up: "That's it for today's press conference. Ms. Carrie Ho still has something to do, so go ahead. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
He Jiayin quickly left the venue.
She knew that Lin Yixiang was waiting for her at the back door. There must be many reporters gathered at the front door, and she had to avoid them.
After walking a few steps, I heard someone shouting from behind.
"Good news!"
She hesitated in her steps and did not look back.
An Jincheng caught up with him in a few steps: "Jiayin, I know it's you!"
He Jiayin did not stop and quickened his pace.
She was not afraid that An Jincheng would recognize her, but she just didn't know how to face him.
Back then, when she had nothing and was at her lowest, it was An Jincheng who took her in and took care of her meticulously.
But when she left, she didn't even say hello to An Jincheng. The fact that she was not dead was hidden from An Jincheng. He must have been very sad.
Now, she is back, and she is no longer the worthless He Jiayin. She is Carrie Ho, so she repays An Jincheng by including An's Group as a target of Shengshi Investment.
But he still didn't want to face An Jincheng.
Because she was walking so fast, she was still out of breath when she got into the car.
"What? Kawako is chasing you?" Lin Yixiang asked her while starting the car.
"No, it's An Jincheng." After He Jiayin finished speaking, he turned to look at Lin Yixiang: "Why did you say it was Mu Zechuan?"
"Ah, well, I thought, didn't Kawako recognize you that night? I think with his temperament, he will definitely pursue you." Lin Yixiang wiped his sweat quietly. He thought of that night, Mu Zechuan
He had no choice but to tell Mu Zechuan about He Jiayin's true identity when he was forced to swear a poisonous oath. If He Jiayin knew about it, he didn't know how angry He Jiayin would be.
Therefore, this matter needs to be slowed down.
"Really?" He Jiayin felt that Lin Yixiang was a little strange: "Are you hiding something from me?"
"No." Lin Yixiang denied: "You are tired, I will take you to eat Sichuan food."
"Don't go to crowded places." He Jiayin leaned his head on the back of the chair and closed his eyes.
"I know, I'll take you to eat private food." Lin Yixiang grinned.

There is MT in the preliminary list of Shengshi Investment, which makes Tang Qiaoen extremely happy!
It seems that Wen Qian did not lie to her this time. Next, she just needs to put the company in order and accept the review!
In a good mood, Tang Qiaoen remembered that he hadn't returned to Mu's house for a long time.
Although she had a bad relationship with Mu Zechuan, she still had hope in her heart, hoping that one day Mu Zechuan would change his mind.
But relying on her alone, she was weak, so Tang Qiaoen thought of Feng Rui.
She bought a lot of food that Feng Rui liked, bought bags and shoes for Feng Rui, and drove to Mu Mansion.
In recent years, Feng Rui no longer likes Tang Qiaoen as much as before.
The main reason is that Tang Qiaoen cannot be favored by Mu Zechuan. After three years of marriage, the two of them spend very little time together.
Feng Rui's friends and wives had already hugged their grandchildren one by one, eagerly waiting to save her, so when they saw Tang Qiaoen, they were no longer as friendly as before.
"Why are you back?" Feng Rui asked with a dissatisfied look on his face when Tang Qiaoen came in.
"Mom, as you said, I'll come back to see you!" She put the things in her hands on the table: "Mom, I bought you a bag, shoes, and your favorite durian cake." Tang Qiaoen
He took things out of the packaging bag one by one: "And this, Mom, is a new limited edition silk scarf from Hermès. I think you will like it."
Feng Rui didn't notice anything else, but she really liked the Hermes scarf and couldn't help but take a second look.
Tang Qiaoen understood and quickly helped Feng Rui wrap the silk scarf around her neck: "Mom, this scarf looks best on you. It matches your temperament."
A smile appeared on Feng Rui's face: "You bought too much."
"As long as you like it, Mom!" Tang Qiaoen hugged Feng Rui's arm.
At this time, Mu Zebing walked in from the outside and saw Tang Qiaoen sitting in the living room. He just nodded and said hello: "You're here."
"Bingbing, you're back!" Tang Qiaoen quickly stood up to greet you: "I also bought you some clothes, come here and try them on."
"No need." Mu Zebing went directly upstairs: "I still have something to do."
"Bingbing..."
"Qiaoen, please leave her alone. She has been very busy these two days." Feng Rui explained for her daughter: "She said she was going to do an internship at some company and was preparing for the interview. It looks like she has worked hard!"
"Oh." Tang Qiaoen sat back.
In the past few years, Mu Zebing's attitude towards her has become increasingly cold. Tang Qiaoen has always wondered if she had remembered something. However, Mu Zebing always avoided her and refused to meet her alone, and Tang Qiaoen had no choice.
Ask her.
"Qiaoen, you are all busy at work, and I don't keep an eye on you every day," Feng Rui finally got to the point: "But you also have to consider our old people's thoughts, we are worried!"
"mom......"
"Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Zhang, my daughter-in-law has already given birth to a second child. Look at you, there is no movement in your belly yet!" Feng Rui said and sighed: "Why are you not as good as that He Jiayin?
Although He Jiayin never gave birth to a child, she was at least pregnant..."
"Mom, how can I do this on my own?" Tang Qiaoen said, tears streaming down his face: "Zechuan, I don't see him all day long. It's not like you don't know his temper. You've seen him too.
How did he treat me? Mom, you know how much I feel for Sichuan. I want a child more than anyone else, but, but he... He Jiayin has been dead for so many years, and he is still thinking about He Jiayin.
, It’s not that I didn’t do well, it’s that he..."
"Hey, that's what you said." Feng Rui sighed.
She also didn't expect that even after three years, her son still couldn't forget that He Jiayin.
Back then, Mu Zechuan divorced He Jiayin and annexed her company. Feng Rui only thought that he really hated the He family and wanted to avenge his father. She didn't expect that he had such deep feelings for that woman.
After He Jiayin died, Feng Rui thought that Mu Zechuan would slowly recover. Even if he couldn't recover immediately, it would get better as time went by.
I didn’t expect it would still be like this three years later.
After marrying Tang Qiaoen, this daughter-in-law is no different from a decoration.
"Mom, I'm really afraid that I can't hold on any longer!" Seeing that Feng Rui was now on his side, Tang Qiaoen quickly struck while the iron was hot: "You know, a person's heart will be tired no matter how it is the same as before. I am now
,I’m really afraid of myself now..."
"Silly boy, Mom knows you are feeling miserable!" Feng Rui took Tang Qiaoen's hand: "In this way, let's find a way together. As long as you have a child, Zechuan will not want to give up his own child no matter how hard-hearted he is.
Yes, do you understand what I mean?"
"But, mom, he, he doesn't even want to look at me..."
"Don't worry, I'm here!" Feng Rui patted Tang Qiaoen on the shoulder.
After lunch, Feng Rui took Tang Qiaoen to cook together and made a lot of Mu Zechuan's favorite things.
Before dinner, Feng Rui asked Mrs. Mu to call Mu Zechuan and ask him to go home for dinner.
Seeing Tang Qiaoen's presence, Mrs. Mu didn't want to fight at first, but when she thought that since He Jiayin was gone, Mu Zechuan couldn't continue like this, she fought.
It was rare that Mu Zechuan answered the phone and actually agreed to come back for dinner.
At half past five, Mu Zechuan's car stopped in the courtyard of Mu Mansion on time.
Feng Rui saw his son getting out of the car with a smile on his face.
She couldn't help but be shocked. In three years, since He Jiayin died, she had not seen her son smile.
Feng Rui quickly stepped forward and took Mu Zechuan's arm: "Son, is there any big happy event?"
"What happy event?" Mu Zechuan frowned, but the smile on his face had not completely faded.
"Tell mom, what good thing is going on? You're smiling!" Feng Rui asked happily.
"Did I laugh?" Mu Zechuan didn't realize that he was laughing.
However, in the past two days, he always showed a harmonious face involuntarily. Shen Li also said that he was smiling during the day.
He knew the reason, because he had confirmed with Lin Yixiang that He Jiayin was not dead and Carrie Ho was He Jiayin. That's why he was so happy.
But damn Lin Yixiang was only willing to tell him this. As for why He Jiayin didn't die and why he came back as Carrie Ho, he even refused to tell him until he died.
However, Mu Zechuan was satisfied knowing that He Jiayin was still alive.
"Okay, come in and eat quickly. Everything you like will be cooked tonight!" Feng Rui quickly pulled Mu Zechuan into the restaurant.
When Mu Zechuan saw that Tang Qiaoen was there, he couldn't help but pause.
Tang Qiaoen was walking out of the kitchen with a bowl of chicken soup. When he saw Mu Zechuan coming back, his hands shook and he almost spilled the soup: "Chuan, you're back!"
"Yes." Mu Zechuan would have ignored Tang Qiaoen at ordinary times. Today, he had something to announce to Tang Qiaoen, so he came back.
Seeing that Mu Zechuan was willing to talk to him, Tang Qiaoen quickly put down the chicken soup, sat next to Mu Zechuan, and hugged his arm: "Chuan~~"
"Let go." Mu Zechuan's voice was cold and ruthless.
Tang Qiaoen had no choice but to let go.
"Mom, Bingbing, it's time to eat!" Feng Rui called Mrs. Mu and Mu Zebing over.
Feng Rui sat down and served Mu Zechuan a bowl of chicken soup first: "Son, how long has it been since you went home to eat? You're so thin. Mom feels so distressed when you look like this. Hurry, drink this bowl of soup!"
"
"I don't want to drink it." Mu Zechuan lost his appetite when he saw Tang Qiaoen.
"No, you must drink this bowl first to nourish your stomach!" Feng Rui ordered.
Mu Zechuan thought that it had been a long time since he had gone home for a meal. Thinking that Feng Rui was worried about him, he might as well drink.
I picked up the bowl and took a sip, but I felt the soup was tasteless.
Just when he was about to put it down, Feng Rui said, "No, drink it in one breath!"
Mu Zechuan had no choice but to drink it all before putting it down: "No salt."
"How could it be?" Feng Rui served another bowl to Tang Qiaoen: "Qiaoen, Mom is old and can't taste it anymore. Please try it and see if there is any salt."
Tang Qiaoen also drank a bowl, put it down and said, "No salt."
"You drank a bowl without salt, let me try it!" Mu Zebing felt strange and stood up to serve himself chicken soup.
"You kid, you still have to taste it without adding salt." Feng Rui quickly stood up and patted Mu Zebing's hand off: "I'll add some salt before you drink."
With that said, he walked into the kitchen carrying chicken soup.
When Tang Qiaoen saw Feng Rui enter the kitchen, his heart was still beating normally.
Because only she and Feng Rui knew why there was no salt in the chicken soup. Mu Zechuan was deliberately asked to drink a bowl first and then drink it.
Because the soup is soupy, other ingredients are added.
Mu Zechuan did not suspect that there was something wrong with the soup. When he saw Feng Rui coming out with the soup, he stood up and said, "Grandma, Mom, I have something to announce."
