Huo Chenfeng patted his trouser legs and stood up from the sofa: "Forget it, I think you should go back and rest tonight. I will come to you for a drink another day."
When I walked out of the office, I happened to bump into the assistant Zhou Shen coming in with a pile of information.
"Mr. Huo." Zhou Shen greeted him.
Huo Chenfeng nodded, stared at the thick stack of documents in his hand, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "There are still so many documents to process?"
Could it be that Young Master Chen doesn't plan to sleep tonight?
Zhou Shen explained: "These are the information on the BP machine project, just brought over by the British team."
"Didn't I hear some time ago that Assistant Jiang is responsible for this project? What does she do for food? The boss has to go through so much information in person?"
Huo Chenfeng frowned and glanced at the assistant's office area not far away.
Zhou Shen paused, took a cautious look at the boss's office, and then lowered his voice: "Jiang, Assistant Jiang is the young lady."
Chen Yanbei's whole body has been clouded these days, and the air pressure is so low that he would freeze to death. Everyone in the company can tell that his boss is in a bad mood.
Moreover, it was originally agreed that the young mistress would be in charge of the cooperation with O2 Company, but now the British team has flown to Singapore, and the young mistress has not come over. Instead, the young master is alone in Singapore, and is still locked in the office every day, so Zhou Shen is sure that behind the scenes The reason must be related to the young mistress.
Hearing Zhou Shen's words, Huo Chenfeng was shocked: What? Jiang Yao is Assistant Jiang?
Hehe, the couple is quite good at playing. They act as bodyguards and assistants for a while.
"Still not leaving?" A voice without any warmth floated out from the office. Chen Yanbei finally looked up from the pile of documents, and his cold eyes swept across the two people standing at the door talking.
The eldest young master had already spoken, but Huo Chenfeng shrank his neck and ran away.
Zhou Shen bravely walked in and put the things in his hands on the desk: "Master, the information you want."
Chen Yanbei hummed coldly, raised his hand and took the top document: "Get out."
As he spoke, he flipped through the documents with his right hand, and his left hand rested on his stomach for a second, with his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Zhou Shen noticed his movements and did not leave immediately. Instead, he said: "Master, I bought a midnight snack. You don't seem to have eaten anything today. Do you want to bring it in for you?"
Chen Yanbei never liked the smell of mess in the office, so Zhou Shen didn't dare to bring him in directly, but asked his opinion first.
"No. You can get off work." Chen Yanbei continued to look down at the documents.
The office door was gently closed.
A few seconds later, Chen Yanbei frowned, put down the documents, took out a box of pills from the drawer, and poured out two pills.
There was no hot water at hand, only a cup of cold coffee, and he swallowed the pills with the coffee.
Not long after taking the medicine, the burning feeling in my stomach subsided a lot.
His eyes inadvertently glanced at the phone on the table, and Jiang Yao's smiling face appeared in his mind. He was stunned for a few seconds, suppressed the urge to pick up the phone, pinched his eyebrows irritably, and stood up from the table. .
It was already one o'clock in the morning, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, a pale moonlight enveloped the sky, making the entire city dim.
Chen Yanbei took a bottle of Lagavulin 16 from the wine rack and sat back on the sofa with the wine glass.
Zhou Shen came out of the office and waited at his workstation for another half an hour. When he saw that Chen Yanbei really didn't look for him again, he got up and left the company.
After getting into the taxi, he looked up from the window to the office on the top floor of the company. The image of Chen Yanbei holding his stomach and frowning slightly flashed through his mind.
The boss has obviously been in a bad state these past two days. He goes around all day, drinking coffee instead of water and not even eating.
Although I don’t know what happened, the young master is definitely not like this since the young lady is here.
After hesitating all the way, Zhou Shen made an international long distance call to Jiang Yao after arriving home.
Naturally, the call didn't go through.
Jiang Yao went to bed not long after returning home. She hadn't had a good rest in the past two days, so she took a melatonin tablet tonight to refresh herself and go to school tomorrow.
Zhou Shen had no choice but to call the hotel.
Huo Chenfeng had a drink and was about to go to bed when the phone beside the bed rang.
"Mr. Huo, I'm sorry to disturb you so late. The young master is still in the office. I think he seems to be a little unwell... He hasn't eaten much in the past two days and drank a lot of coffee."
"Okay, I understand. I'll go over and take a look."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Chenfeng glanced at the electronic clock on the bedside. It was almost two o'clock in the morning and he was still at the company. Are he really planning to stay up all night regardless of his health?
After getting dressed, Huo Chenfeng asked the hotel to prepare a meal and deliver it to the room, and then drove to the company.
When he arrived downstairs in the company, he looked up and saw that the lights in Chen Yanbei's office were still on.
He quickly picked up the meals packed from the hotel and got out of the car.
When he pushed open the office door and entered, he saw Chen Yanbei sitting on the sofa, his shirt half unbuttoned, drinking one cup after another. The bottle of Lagavulin 16 on the coffee table in front of him was almost empty.
He drank a whole bottle of 43-degree wine on an empty stomach. His body didn’t want it anymore, right?
Huo Chenfeng strode forward and snatched the wine glass from his hand: "Hey, young master, if you want to drink, you should eat something first, don't you want to save your life?"
With his hands empty, Chen Yanbei raised his head coldly.
Looking at each other at such a close distance, Huo Chenfeng noticed that his eye sockets were bloodshot, his entire eye socket was red, and his whole body exuded an extremely decadent temperament.
The high-spirited young master in the past had never shown such a fragile side when he was crippled in a car accident and lying on the hospital bed. Unexpectedly, now...
Huo Chenfeng sighed, put the meal packed from the hotel in front of him, got up and went out to get a glass of hot water and came back: "Drink some water first and then eat."
Chen Yanbei shook his head and leaned back on the sofa, rubbing his temples with a painful expression.
Huo Chenfeng had no choice but to put the water cup on the coffee table, opened his mouth, and wanted to comfort his friend, but when he thought of the various documents and certificates found in Zhao Changfeng's luggage, he was at a loss for words.
The evidence was too real, and there was a witness like Jiang Jing. Even if he wanted to believe Jiang Yao, he couldn't convince himself.
Just imagine if the wife he married had been married to another man and lied to him that she was single, he would definitely not be able to bear it and would probably be even more crazy than Chen Yanbei.
And he could see that Chen Yanbei really liked Jiang Yao and fell in love with her. The eldest young master encountered this kind of thing for the first time when he was in love, and it was definitely a big blow.
Huo Chenfeng sighed, "You can't do this to yourself. When the results of the investigation from the mainland come back, if... the matter is true, what are you going to do?"
what to do?
Chen Yanbei's lips curved into a mocking arc: "I don't know."
If he had been deceived by someone in the past, that person's fate would have been miserable, but now that he actually said he didn't know, Huo Chenfeng finally understood: "Now, since you still can't let go of others, what are you doing to yourself? Why don't you do it now? Go back and let the two of you talk things over and live happily ever after."
"Perhaps my sister-in-law had real difficulties before. Look at the appearance of the bad guy from Mainland China. It's probably because he forced her to do it. Besides, if my sister-in-law really wants to find a rich man, there are many children of rich and powerful high-ranking officials in the mainland. As for looking for such a One?"
Chen Yanbei had thought about what Huo Chenfeng said.
But he just couldn't help himself from thinking about the scenes of her being with other men...
think……
Poof - Chen Yanbei's heart felt hot, and then a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, and he fell directly onto the sofa.
"Hey! Are you okay?" Huo Chenfeng was startled and quickly stepped forward to help him.
"I...it's okay..." Chen Yanbei's voice was weak, and he pushed himself to sit up.
Huo Chenfeng supported him on the sofa, stood up quickly, walked to the desk, and picked up the phone.
Glancing at the medicine on the table and the coffee next to it, his face suddenly changed: "Hey, you don't know how to mix stomach medicine with coffee, and then drink it on an empty stomach, right? Young Master, do you know that you can kill people like this? !”
That stomach medicine was prescribed by a foreign doctor. It works quickly, but there are some ingredients in it that should never be taken together with alcohol and caffeine.
Huo Chenfeng directly dialed the emergency number of the private hospital.
Hong Kong.
Jiang Yao slept well after taking melatonin last night.
I got up early in the morning, packed myself up, took my Cambridge bag and went downstairs to have breakfast.
In the middle of using it, Sister An ran in anxiously: "Young lady, someone is coming to the old house."
As soon as he finished speaking, footsteps came from the entrance of the living room.
Jiang Yao raised her eyes and looked up: Chen Guobang and Zhou Limin were walking together, followed by someone - Jiang Jing!
"Mom, Dad, have you had breakfast? Do you want to sit down together?" Jiang Yao asked politely, but she already knew what the other party was here for.
Snapped! Jiang Jing stepped forward and without saying a word, she raised her hand and gave Jiang Yao a big slap in the face.
While beating him, he said viciously: "Bitch! You never thought I would come back alive! You owe me this slap! You murderer!"
Jiang Yao accidentally caught her hand, and her left face immediately swelled up, causing burning pain.
Seeing her beautiful face half swollen, Jiang Jing was so happy that she wanted to slap her again.
This time Jiang Yao ducked out of the way, then picked up the vase on the table and opened Jiang Jing's head with a bang.
"ah!"
Jiang Jing covered her head and screamed, blood dripping down her forehead.
When she felt a sticky hand, she screamed in panic: "Bitch! You actually want to kill me!"
"Hey, what nonsense are you talking about so early in the morning? If I kill you, will you still stand here? As for now, I can only consider it self-defense."
Jiang Yao stared at her with a cold face, her red lips slowly raised.
Jiang Jing didn't expect that after not seeing her for more than half a year, this sister's aura would become so fierce. She shuddered under her gaze, covered her head and took a few steps back, standing aside behind the Chen family couple.
Seeing the Chen family, Jiang Jing suddenly felt confident again and glared back at Jiang Yao:
"In order to steal my engagement, you tricked me into smuggling to Xiangjiang, and then pushed me into the sea on the way. Isn't this murder? Fortunately, I survived. I came to Xiangjiang this time to uncover the truth. Your true face!"
Zhou Limin on the side held Chen Guobang's arm: "Husband, look, you didn't believe it when I said she beat Feng Meilin before, but now seeing is believing? She dared to hit her own sister on the head with a vase in front of us. It's simply She’s just a little girl!”
