Volume 1 Beginning of Summer Chapter 13 Bracelet
They walked to the green space while chatting, and they chose a bench near the inside and sat down.
"Where are Zhou Tao and Zhao Shiqi?"
"They are in Suzu. I thought I was the only one in Tangjiang in our dormitory, but I didn't expect you to be here too."
"Am I a local of Tangjiang?"
"I'll ask them to come over for a get-together next time?"
"Okay."
"If I add you to the group, they will definitely be surprised," Yuan Shu took out his phone and added Jiang You to the WeChat group. "I didn't expect you to be the best," Yuan Shu took out a cigarette box from his pocket, took out a cigarette, and then pointed the cigarette box to Jiang You. After watching Jiang You take out a cigarette, he took out a lighter and lit the cigarette. "After graduating from college, I continued to study for a master's degree for three years. I didn't expect that after I finished, housing prices would rise like this."
Jiang You took the lighter handed over by Yuan Shu and lit it. "You are standing at the forefront of the trend. One opportunity will make you take off. Why worry about the house?"
"There aren't so many opportunities. Opportunities will only get fewer and fewer," Yuan Shu shook his head and said, "The person who went online to expose the information is not from our company."
"The one you told Tang Jiang?"
"That's just a rubbish account trying to gain popularity!" Yuan Shu cursed indignantly, "Overtime in our company is counted as compensatory leave. We 've all agreed that when this project is over, we'll use our saved time off to go to Thailand for a trip," he took a long puff of his cigarette, "Liang Hao is such a nice person. If his parents hadn't been deceived... At first, our company went to offer condolences, but before we even got in, we were blocked by a man and a woman. I thought they were Liang Hao's relatives or something. They were cursing and we couldn't figure out what was going on, so we had to leave. Not long after, the company was sued. Later, Brother Zhu took me there again, and we realized they weren't relatives at all."
"Is it possible?"
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes , I wouldn't have imagined it. It's so disgusting. How could there be such a person!"
“Many people have no bottom line.”
"Yes," Yuan Shu looked at the fountain not far away through the smoke, "I always feel that Liang Hao would not commit suicide," he turned his head and glanced in the direction of the venue, lowering his voice, "Before Liang Hao's accident, something happened and some information was leaked."
"Leaked? How could it be? Aren't there any confidentiality measures?" Jiang You also lowered his voice.
"Yeah, he worked all night just for this."
"Did you call the police?"
"There were too many people involved to call the police. But when the police came to investigate, Brother Zhu told them."
Jiang You immediately understood why the case had taken so long to be closed. He said, "Aren't you just embarrassing yourself by coming to this press conference? It's Saturday night, why not do something else?"
"I just want to see what they can come up with!"
As they chatted, the first half of the press conference ended and the audience came out one after another.
Suddenly, more and more people appeared in the green space.
Jiang You stood up, walked to a nearby trash can, put out his cigarette, then turned around and looked at Yuan Shu and said, "I'll go over there and we'll go together when we're done."
"Okay, go ahead. I'll sit for a while."
Jiang You walked through the crowd and into the room. Outside the venue, there were two long tables with two beverage machines, some fruit snacks, and some brochures on them. He slowly walked to the long table and picked up a disposable cup. He looked at the options on the beverage machine and placed the cup on the water outlet.
He chose orange juice.
After the cup was two-thirds full, the machine stopped. Jiang You picked up the cup and took a sip.
He walked forward a few steps, picked up a brochure, put the cup on the table, and began to read it.
Five or six reporters surrounded Liu Yong and his secretary Huang Xiting and walked out of the conference hall towards the lounge.
A reporter asked: "Mr. Liu, there are rumors that Cen Te originally wanted to invest in Xiaozha. What do you think of this rumor?"
"Rake's products are more Internet-oriented..." Liu Yong glanced outside and happened to see Jiang You standing in front of the table reading a brochure. His eyes froze for a moment, and then he continued to walk forward while answering the reporter's questions, "We believe in consumers, believe in the market, and products are king. Rake has always adhered to this principle."
After entering the lounge, Liu Yong sat down on the sofa and Huang Xiting turned around and closed the door.
"Xiting, go call in the fat man in a light yellow T-shirt sitting at the long table outside and tell him to say yes, I'm looking for him." Liu Yong ordered.
Huang Xiting was stunned for a moment, and she immediately said, "Okay."
"Wait a minute." Liu Yong called Huang Xiting again.
He stood up and walked a few steps left and right. "Find an excuse to go over and take a look at the code on his bracelet. Be natural."
Although Liu Yong's request was very strange, Huang Xiting still agreed. She said, "Okay, Mr. Liu. Then, do you still want him to come in?"
"No."
Huang Xiting walked out of the lounge.
Jiang Youzheng put the brochure into the outer pocket of his bag, zipped it up, then picked up the cup again and took a sip.
Huang Xiting walked to the beverage machine, took two cups, poured two cups of lemon tea, and then walked towards Jiang You. When she passed behind Jiang You, Jiang You suddenly turned around, and Huang Xiting was frightened. She subconsciously took a step back, and her foot in high heels also sprained, and she fell to one side unsteadily.
Jiang You moved to the left to avoid the liquid that was splashing forward.
Huang Xiting half fell to the ground. She raised her head and their eyes met.
Jiang You looked at Huang Xiting.
She has long chestnut curly hair, a black pinstriped professional suit, and delicate makeup, using matte foundation and lipstick, looking gentle and generous.
"Do you want me to help you?" Jiang You asked.
Huang Xiting smiled awkwardly, then she nodded.
The people around them looked towards their location.
Jiang You avoided the water stains on the ground, took a step forward, bent down, and extended his right hand towards Huang Xiting.
Huang Xiting held Jiang You's hand, and she saw the code on Jiang You's bracelet clearly - pz2743.
After standing up, she twisted her ankle and thanked Jiang You, saying, "Thank you."
"It's okay, did I scare you?"
"No, no, my heels are a bit high today." She glanced at the water stains on the floor, "I'll ask the waiter to sweep it up."
Jiang You glanced at Huang Xiting, walked to the beverage machine, poured two cups of lemon tea, then walked in front of and handed her the cup, "Can I have it?"
Huang Xiting took the cup with both hands and nodded.
"Are you Liu Yong's secretary?"
"Yes."
"Do you have anything else to do? Don't waste time with me, go get busy."
"Yeah, okay."
"I'll go in and sit down too," Jiang You glanced in the direction of the venue, "If it's not too much trouble, could you ask them to turn up the temperature a little? It's a bit cold in there."
"I'll talk to them."
"It's troublesome."
Jiang You watched Huang Xiting walk towards the lounge with somewhat unsteady steps. After she entered the door, he raised his right hand and looked at the bracelet. Then, he drank the remaining orange juice in the cup, walked forward a few steps, and threw the cup into the trash can not far away.
A waiter in hotel uniform came over with a mop and mopped the floor clean.
When I walked back into the venue, there were only three minutes left before the second half began.
