Once a month is too much. Family dinners are troublesome and annoying. He Houdan balled up his napkin and threw it on the table, dissatisfied and left.
Naturally, the elder pointed angrily at his back and scolded him, but He Xiamo stopped him, "The company has been busy recently. He hasn't had a holiday for half a month. He may be tired. I'll go check on him."
She was also polite to several others.
The He family has three rooms in total. She and her brother live in the second room. Her mother is not in good health, so she did not come to the dinner party today.
The two daughters and one son of the first family inherited Changxi's business. The two girls of the third family are still young, one is in high school and the other is a freshman.
In this family, except for the marriage ceremony between her mother and father, there was nothing else. The first room was her father's first love when he was still studying in his early years. He had set up several tables in his hometown, but he did not get a certificate. The third room was his father's secretary when he started his business. She took care of her father's food and daily life, and then somehow took care of him in bed.
Xia Mo went up the stairs and saw He Houdan sitting on a chair next to the rooftop and watching the sunset.
The setting sun made both of their faces blush.
"Don't talk to your family like that next time, it's not good."
He Houdan had long been fed up with this false etiquette, "I won't come back next time."
"Your house and car were given to you by your father, and everything you have was given to you by him."
"Then I don't want it. Anyway, once I get the passport, I can travel all over the world. It's not like I don't have the ability to support myself."
"You thought so and ran away a long time ago. Why are you still here?"
"How will you cope with the eldest brother and the third child now that I'm gone?"
Xia Mo stroked his head, like petting a dog, but he pushed him away, "It's really..."
"I heard that you had a meeting recently, but why didn't anyone submit the meeting minutes?"
He Houdan blinked and looked away from her, "They must have forgotten."
"Is your brother-in-law the host of the meeting?"
"Yeah." He didn't want to hide it from her.
"Okay, I get it."
He Houdan was afraid that she would think too much, "It has nothing to do with the company's overall plan. It is just a small change in the Sunrise Project and will not affect anything."
Xia Mo smiled, "Don't you hate talking to Xingfeng the most?"
"So, I didn't help him, so I told the truth."
Xia Mo sat next to him and raised her face to look at her brother. He had grown so big in a blink of an eye and was an adult, but in her eyes he was still just like a child. "It's not that I forgot to submit the meeting minutes, but that you guys There was no record then, was there?"
He Houdan nodded.
"Sister, this kind of small meeting doesn't need to be recorded. The company rules have been written."
Xia Mo teased him, "Really? It involves several departments, so why don't we record it?"
He felt a little guilty, "Who told you that?"
"My spies are all over the company, don't try to hide from me."
Xia Mo continued to ask him, "What are you mainly discussing?"
"Didn't your spy tell you?" He said thoughtfully, "Actually, you just knew that this was happening, and you didn't even know what we were discussing in the meeting, right?"
Xia Mo knew that he would not be fooled, "Tell me, what exactly did you say?"
"Hey, didn't you ignore this project before? Why are you asking about it now?"
"Luo Wu wants to carry out comprehensive optimization, and I'm worried about something going wrong. This project is originally a key project of the company."
He Houdan understood, "No wonder I heard the news before."
"What's the news?"
"It was someone from our own family who told me that you want to kick Mr. Luo out. Now her every move should be under your surveillance."
"so what?"
"I'm not saying it's bad. You know I will support whatever decision you make, but this Luo Wu, she...she is Zhong Gong's teacher."
"I know, so I will cut carefully." She continued to ask, "What exactly were you discussing in that meeting?"
He Houdan thought that Zhong Xingfeng would tell her, but now it seems that he has not told her. He was holding a breath, but now that he knows that the other man is hiding it from her, he no longer hides it.
After Xia Mo listened, she dialed the phone.
Two minutes later, she completed the verification.
That number 003 is indeed dead.
"Why didn't anyone tell me this before?" she asked herself.
"You are very busy, and the hospital will not report every patient's condition to you. Besides, it is not your responsibility. My uncle is watching over the hospital, so don't think too much."
"I'm not talking about the patient, I'm talking about this test subject. Since she is a test subject of the Sunrise Project and an experimental product that we bought at a high price, shouldn't we report her situation to me?"
He Houdan said, "With Zhong Gong here, maybe they will contact him directly."
This was what made her most unhappy, but it was easily exposed by her brother.
He hadn't seen Xia Mo's shadow yet, so he kept talking about the content of that day's meeting.
After a while, she stood up without saying a word. He Houdan followed her and noticed the clue. When she was angry, she would always make a fist with one hand, sometimes clenching it and loosening it, as if she was planning something, and also seemed to be trying to relieve herself.
"Are you angry?"
"It doesn't matter, it has nothing to do with you. Drive back slowly."
"I'm taking you home. Didn't you drink just now? Today Zhonggong is still working overtime. At this point... he may have gone home too. It will be faster if I take you back, and he won't have to pick you up."
"No." She waved her hand.
"I'm not going back. Something happened. I'm going back to the company."
"No, you went to the company again, it's so late, let's talk about it tomorrow."
"No, I have to go now. You go back first. I'll ask Uncle Ni to take me there."
The lights were turned on on the dark seventh floor. As long as she wanted to, she could temporarily build a glass room. She was the person with the highest position in the entire company and had all the decision-making power.
This is where all discarded characters are stored. Except for high-level people, ordinary people cannot enter.
She thought she was dead, but the light illuminated her face, and the light was dazzling when she looked up.
A woman wearing royal blue high-heeled shoes slightly opened her red lips, "Are you awake?"
"It's you?"
"Do you remember me?"
"As long as someone appears in my memory, I will never forget it. Compared to you humans, my memory is much better."
"Zou Qiuyue, right? Your name."
"Who knows? Whatever the name is, it's not up to me."
"You must be feeling aggrieved now, right? You thought you were awakened, but now you are in a cage. You hate us, the creators."
Zou Qiuyue sat down cross-legged, not bothering to look at her face, but saw the spotless shoes on her feet, which were so beautiful.
Suddenly, she laughed out loud.
"So that's it."
Xia Mo was curious about her smile, "Are you laughing at me?" He followed her gaze to his shoes and found nothing attached.
Why?
"I've seen your shoes before."
"I remember the last time I saw you was several years ago. At that time, these shoes had not been designed yet." Xia Mo said.
She said no more. If this could be regarded as her bargaining chip, she didn't want to hand it over so quickly.
"You shouldn't laugh at me, because you are even more ridiculous." Xia Mo told her.
She knew that her status was very valuable, but she was not afraid, "Why do you say that?"
"Because what you think is actually just what I want you to think."
"If you came here in the middle of the night and wanted to tell me tongue twisters, then there's no need."
She opened the tablet and followed the plot.
When she heard those words, pistol, kill Shao Ze, confront Luo Wu...
"Hindsight is nothing to show off."
She pointed the tablet at her so she could see when it was written.
"How is that possible!" She didn't believe it.
All before she takes action.
After a while, she suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed so hard that she fell down and laughed until tears came out of her eyes.
"I thought I was favored by God and finally touched the boundary of my world. But I didn't expect that my awakening was only controlled by a few lines of code in your hand."
Xia Mo chuckled, "Of course, do you think dead things can have consciousness?"
Zou Qiuyue got up from the ground, threw herself on the glass and argued, "Fuck you, I'm not a dead thing, I'm a living person, I have intentions, but it's you, you people are unintentional! One day, I I want you to pay with blood!"
Xia Mo slowly approached her, and there was only a layer of glass between them.
"Shall we make a deal?"
"Why should I trade with you?"
"If I could give you what you want, would you like it?"
Zou Qiuyue said indifferently, "Do you know what I want?"
Xia Mo said two words lightly.
free.
But these two words were so light, lighter than air, but they made Zou Qiuyue go crazy.
