At 5:30 pm the next day, Xia Haoyu happily arrived as scheduled and met Chen Yuanqiao and Chen Mengqi waiting in the box 888 of the VIP Building of Jinqiao Hotel. When Chen Yuanqiao saw him coming in, he immediately stood up with a smile on his face. , bowed slightly to welcome him in; Chen Mengqi lowered her head and sat there silently. Although the expression on her face could not be clearly seen, it was obvious that she was very unhappy.
Xia Haoyu had encountered many problems with Chen Mengqi, so he had a certain immunity, and he didn't care about her attitude at the moment. His idea was: no matter what Chen Mengqi thinks in her heart, and no matter what her attitude towards him, as long as she As long as she agrees to be engaged and married to him, after she marries into his family, he will naturally have the means to subdue her, control her, and not be afraid of her flying into the sky...
Although Chen Mengqi had objections to her father's insistence on her engagement to Xia Haoyu, she was also a very filial girl. She couldn't bear to see her father worried and anxious every day, and she didn't want to see him because of the bankruptcy of his company. And ended up with a tragic ending, so she still came to the box to have dinner with Xia Haoyu today and waited to see what the two of them had to say. If it didn't work, she would find an opportunity to talk to Xia Haoyu alone in the future and tell him clearly. Therefore, during the meal, she said nothing and allowed her father and Xia Haoyu to drink and chat.
Chen Yuanqiao originally wanted to talk to Xia Haoyu about his engagement with Qiqi first, and then ask Qiqi to promise him one more time in front of Xia Haoyu to make him feel happy first, and then mention borrowing money from Huayu Heavy Industry. Ask him to help get the topic of the land in the development zone.
However, he found that Qiqi still had a repulsive expression today, and she had never looked directly at Xia Haoyu from beginning to end, for fear that after he brought up the topic of engagement, his daughter would suddenly lose her temper and say something unpleasant, completely He had stopped thinking about Xia Haoyu, so he had carefully avoided the topic of engagement, and instead drank with Xia Haoyu while chatting about business matters.
Xia Haoyu also noticed that Chen Mengqi looked wrong, so he did not dare to mention that sensitive topic at this time, for fear of offending her and embarrassing himself on the spot, so he and Chen Yuanqiao talked about it in a nonchalant manner. Insignificant topic.
After drinking half way, Chen Yuanqiao finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he tried to talk about the issue of borrowing money from Huayu Heavy Industry and asking Governor Ni to grant land.
Xia Haoyu was ignored by Chen Mengqi. Although he did not dare to get angry, he was also very unhappy, so he said: "Mr. Chen, I have said: Regarding the lending of funds, as long as Qiqi and I are engaged, then we are relatives. , we are a family, it is easy to talk about anything, a few hundred million funds is not a big sum for our company, and we can take it out at any time, but before Qiqi and I get engaged, if I lend this Funds, my father will definitely ask me why. You also know that although I am the general manager, the lending of hundreds of millions of funds must be approved by my father, right? If I don’t have a legitimate reason, Just lending this money would definitely make it difficult for my father to pass.
"As for the matter of going to Governor Ni to grant land, just like borrowing money, it has to go through my father, because Governor Ni is my father's brother when he was an educated youth. Only if he comes forward to find you Governor Ni can his words have weight. It can also allow Governor Ni to come forward to communicate and coordinate with Secretary Qing. As for me, I am just a young boy, and Governor Ni may not necessarily buy my face.
"Also, even if my father finds Governor Ni, I can't guarantee that I will be able to get the land you want. Why, because you also know that Governor Ni has only been in Tianjiang for less than a month. It should be noted that although he and Secretary Qing are both members of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and should meet often, it is not certain whether the relationship between the two is good. Moreover, whether Secretary Qing can buy Governor Ni's favor or not, it is still up to two people to decide. Therefore, There are great difficulties here, I can only try my best, but I dare not guarantee it,”
When Chen Yuanqiao heard Xia Haoyu's words, he suddenly showed a disappointed expression on his face. It turned out that when Xia Haoyu came to him a few days ago to talk about his engagement with Qiqi, he spoke very eloquently, repeatedly emphasizing that his father and Governor Ni How good the relationship is, and said that as long as Governor Ni comes forward, the land can be easily obtained. Unexpectedly, now that he saw that Qiqi had a bad attitude towards him, he immediately changed his tone and began to emphasize the difficulty of obtaining the land. Well, it seems that this guy is not a good guy. Either he started bragging, or he broke his promise, and now he doesn't want to help him get through the difficulties.
Thinking of this, his mood immediately dropped. He drank a glass of wine sullenly and sighed: "Mr. It is related to my family and life, so I hope you can help us in our most difficult time. Find Governor Ni and ask him to say hello to Secretary Qing. I believe that as long as Governor Ni is willing to help, Secretary Qing, as a newly promoted Municipal Party Committee Secretary and the lowest ranking member of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee, will give Governor Ni this face,"
Xia Haoyu still shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, hard to say, but I still say the same thing: As long as Qiqi and I are engaged, we will be a family, and the affairs of Jinqiao Group will be my business. By then, I will I will definitely go all out to get this thing done, even if I have to kneel down and beg Governor Ni, I will be willing to do so."
As he spoke, he squinted at Chen Mengqi, who kept her head bowed and remained silent, waiting to see her reaction.
When Chen Mengqi heard his first words, she was already very disgusted and angry. Now that she heard him threaten her father again with land acquisition, she couldn't help but become angry. She couldn't bear it anymore and suddenly stood up with a cry. Xiumei stood up and scolded: "Xia, don't think that because our company is encountering difficulties now, you can take advantage of others. I can tell you clearly: I hate you very much. I always have, and now I hate you." You are even more annoying and contemptuous. Didn’t you want to ask me today if I would like to get engaged to you? My answer is only one word: Bah."
After finishing her speech, she opened the door of the box and walked out without looking back.
Xia Haoyu was made red-faced by Chen Mengqi's rebuke, and sat there dumbfounded, unable to speak for a while.
Chen Yuanqiao didn't expect that Chen Mengqi would suddenly get angry, and was caught off guard. It was too late to stop her. Seeing Xia Haoyu's face turning green and white, he knew that the matter was irreversible, so he didn't say anything and sat on the chair blankly, his face Showing an expression of extreme despair,
