Chapter 14 Long Time No See(1/2)
Rong Yan got out of bed before she could put on her shoes.
Trying to stop Gu Xing, Gu Xing threw away the gurgling needle with his left hand, and there were drops of blood on the back of his right hand.
"Send me back to my old house." Gu Xing's face was frighteningly gloomy.
Rong Yan was full of words of persuasion, but finally swallowed them with understanding.
She grabbed a stack of toilet paper and prepared to stop the bleeding on the back of Gu Xing's right hand. Gu Xing frowned and said, "It's troublesome."
Angrily, Rong Yan curled up the toilet paper into a ball and threw it into the trash can, then opened the door of the ward with force.
The two of them arrived at the Gu family's old house in silence.
There were already more than a dozen luxury cars parked at the entrance of the old house. The lights were brightly lit inside and outside. Every servant was in a panic. There was only the sound of rapid footsteps in the entire courtyard, and not even a voice could be heard.
Gu Xing went straight to the main building.
Rong Yan grabbed an aunt and asked her several times before the aunt told her in a low voice: Mrs. Gu's death is approaching and she just moved home from the hospital.
Rong Yan didn't like such a depressing atmosphere, so he stayed in the house for less than three minutes and returned to the car.
Looking at the situation, Gu Xing wouldn't be able to get out for a while, so she drove Gu Xing's car back to the rental house.
She didn't sleep well at all. As soon as she closed her eyes, she felt that Gu Xing was looking for her. When she turned on her phone, she realized that she was overthinking.
At six o'clock in the morning, she was completely sleepless and checked her cell phone.
Several larger media outlets in Jincheng reported the news that Mrs. Gu passed away at three in the morning, but there were no photos of the scene.
Gu Xing is now in mourning, so the renovation of the east building has come to an end for the time being. Fortunately, Xie Chu has already paid the deposit.
After washing up and having a simple breakfast, Rong Yan came to the company early.
The other members of Group C haven't arrived yet, and the floor and workstations are very messy. Rong Yan guesses that they may have worked overtime all night last night.
Rong Yan found the cleaning tools, cleaned the office, and opened the windows.
Old Wu was the first to come, with a tired face. He saw Rong Yan shaking his head repeatedly, "When I just checked in, Vice President Li said that the design drawing we made last night was destroyed again."
Rong Yan, the designer of Tinghua Villa, had no involvement and couldn't figure out the situation inside. He could only comfort Lao Wu, "Let's work hard next time."
"Rong Yan, how is your progress there? Have you gained anything? Team C is counting on you now." Old Wu unscrewed the thermos cup and put in a few wolfberries.
"That's pretty much it. The other party paid the deposit to the public account last night." Rong Yan shared the good news with Lao Wu.
Lao Wu smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, "Young people are still brave enough to do things."
Rong Yan sat down at the workstation and first contacted Xie Chu on WeChat. After waiting for a while and there was no response, she had to call Xie Chu's number.
Unexpectedly, a few seconds later, Xie Chu's sleepy voice came, "It's only what time, don't let anyone stop. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it in the afternoon -"
"Thank you, Mr. Xie, it's me, Rong Yan." Rong Yan was afraid that he would hang up the phone, so she got up excitedly, "As you promised me yesterday, you asked me to visit your villa and make a budget."
"Rong Yan, in one hour you can come directly to Building 12, Area A, Qingyuntai. I will send someone there right away." Xie Chu ended the call with a yawn.
Rong Yan quickly wrote down the address with pen and paper.
"It's time to sign the contract sooner rather than later. You go right away. I'll take care of it for you when Zhao Di comes." Old Wu, who was eavesdropping on the side, had a serious face and gave Rong Yan the highest instructions.
"OK!" Rong Yan picked up his laptop and car keys and left the office.
The elevator door opened and he met Rong Tiande.
Rong Tiande glared at Rong Yan with a sad face: "Come to my office!"
"I want to go see the house, I don't have time now." Rong Yan guessed that something was not good and wanted to run away.
Seeing that there was no one around, Rong Tiande pulled Rong Yan to a corner and asked softly: "How on earth did you instigate the relationship between Ning Ning and Gu Xing?"
"They are clearly in a cooperative relationship, what kind of relationship do they have!" Rong Yan asked back, "If they really love each other to the death, how can I instigate it?"
Rong Tiande frowned and said, "The old lady of the Gu family passed away early in the morning. Ning Ning wants to express her condolences as Gu Xing's fiancée, but Gu Xing won't allow it."
"The engagement between Gu Xing and Bai Jiuning was for Mrs. Gu to see. Now that the old lady is dead, there is no need to perform this drama again, right?" Rong Yan said lightly.
"The company's capital turnover has been difficult recently. Gu Xing once promised to inject capital into Rong's family, but now he has stopped talking about it." Rong Tiande was so angry that his mouth almost twisted, "Gu Xing has been hiding from Ning Ning these days, Ning Ning.
He said he saw you fooling around with Gu Xing!"
"You believe Bai Jiuning's words to slander me! Well, I have nothing to say." Rong Yan pretended to be innocent, "Bai Jiuning has no ability to take down Gu Xing, so he blames me for the fault. It's really easy to calculate."
"Are you really not clear with Gu Xing?" Rong Tiande couldn't figure out which one to believe.
"Bai Jiuning is your biological child, just believe her, don't believe me!" Rong Yan was saying that the elevator opened and walked in quickly.
Rong Tiande let out a long sigh.
"Qingyuntai" is located in the East District of Jincheng. The entire community is full of garden villas, making it a real wealthy area.
When Rong Yan rushed to Area A, the people arranged by Xie Chu were already waiting at the door.
The other party is a young man who is fashionably dressed and well-spoken.
The young man opened the door and sat on the doorstep to check his cell phone.
The villa has two floors and is more than 400 square meters. It only has water, electricity, heating and simple wall construction. According to Xie Chu's wealthy character, this is designated as a large-scale project.
Rong Yan was so excited that she went upstairs and downstairs, and it took an hour to finish measuring all the rooms with a laser ruler.
Then, I marked the layout of the room on the computer.
When we left Qingyuntai, it was already 11:30 noon.
Rong Yan dialed Xie Chu's number several times, but the message "The user you dialed has turned off."
Rong Yan had no choice but to leave him a message on WeChat, asking him about the decoration style and requirements he wanted, as well as the price he could afford.
Xie Chu didn't make any response.
When Rong Yan returned to the company, it was time for dinner, and after finishing her meal in the cafeteria, she met Zhao Zhaodi.
Before Rong Yan could run away, Zhao Zhaodi stopped her, "I heard from Old Wu that you signed a contract for a villa."
"The customer hasn't signed the contract yet, he just paid the deposit." Rong Yan did not dare to be careless and spoke very carefully.
"Even if the order is signed, will the customer adopt your design?" Zhao Zhaodi also had a sullen face in the cafeteria, without a smile. "If no customer adopts Group C's design drawings before the end of the month, you still have to get out!"
There were many colleagues coming to eat. Some heard Zhao Zhaodi scolding Rong Yan and started to eavesdrop.
Both Rong Yan and Zhao Zhaodi noticed that someone was watching a joke.
Rong Yan felt that Zhao Zhaodi was his immediate boss and did not want to make the relationship tense, so he chose to remain silent.
Who would have thought that Zhao Zhaodi was getting more and more aggressive, "If I really want to wait until I can't complete my performance and be kicked out of Group C, I might as well get out now——"
"Zhao Zhaodi, it was Rong Tiande who transferred me from the marketing department to the design department. If I wanted to leave, it was Rong Tiande who asked me to leave! Who do you think you are!" Rong Yan slammed the dinner plate in his hand to the ground.
The rice soup splashed all over Zhao Di's legs.
Zhao Zhaodi's face turned blue and white.
After fifteen years of working at Rong's, no one has ever said a harsh word to her.
Rong Yan, a novice who had only been in the company for three months, dared to point her nose and scold her in front of all her colleagues!
Zhao Zhaodi was so angry that she raised her hand to throw her dinner plate at Rong Yan, but was stopped by two colleagues.
Li Ying also rushed over, pulled Rong Yan back to the office, and praised Rong Yan for venting his anger on the colleagues in Group C, and told Rong Yan to be careful about Zhao Zhaodi in the future.
Rong Yan did not suffer any loss and was in a good mood, so she ordered a takeaway on her mobile phone.
Just after paying the bill, the phone rang.
It turned out to be Gu Xing.
Rong Yan clicked on the answer button.
"Do something for me -" Gu Xing's voice was low and hoarse, "Go back to Junyue Mansion and bring my laptop to the old house. The password for the security door will be sent to your mobile phone."
"Okay." Rong Yan agreed without hesitation.
Gu Xing has an assistant and a lot of bad friends, so why let her go to Junyue Mansion?
A busy tone came from Rong Yan's cell phone to end the call.
"Li Ying, I have to go out. Please sign for the takeaway when it comes." After Rong Yan finished explaining, he picked up his handbag and car keys and ran out of the office.
An hour later, Rong Yan saw Gu Xing at the gate of Gu's house.
Gu Xing was dressed in black, his expression was sad and decadent, his light blue stubble was faint, and he wore a coin-sized filial piety plaque on his left arm.
"Thank you." Gu Xing took the computer and turned around to leave.
Rong Yan shouted to him: "My condolences."
Gu Xing was stunned for a moment and entered the house without looking back.
In Rong Yan's view, Gu Xingzhi orchid and jade trees, but at this moment, his back looks lonely and lonely.
"Rong Yan, what a coincidence!" Xie Chu's sudden voice interrupted Rong Yan's thoughts.
Rong Yan turned around and saw Xie Chu jumping out of a sexy sports car.
Xie Chu wore sunglasses and a decent black suit, and her left earring was refracted by the midday sun.
