Chapter 18
Chapter 18
Recently, the rumors inside and outside the military headquarters have been spreading fiercely. Anyone who has anything to do with Fu Lize knows that he has suffered several secret losses one after another.Seeing that the new joint research and development project between Fu Group and the military is about to enter the official agenda, those who had originally hoped to make a fortune in the wind seem to be backing down one after another, testing him openly and secretly.
The evening's entertainment was just over halfway, and Friedrich's face, which was about to freeze from laughing, was clearly showing some displeasure.
Lu Chong wanted to ease the situation, and invited him to go outside the hall to get some air after drinking a round of wine.
Walking out of the door, the air pressure around Fu Lize's body dropped a lot, and the corners of his eyebrows, eyes and lips that had been raised slightly all night were instantly retracted, "A group of people who follow the wind."
"It's not the first time to deal with this group of people." Lu Chong gave him a cigarette, "As long as there is no problem with the research and development project this time, everything will naturally be solved."
Friedrich didn't help him to comfort him, but the uncontrollable irritability and hidden worries in his heart made him really uneasy.After smoking a cigarette quickly, he asked, "Is there anyone who was in the military before Gu Huaipei?"
Lu Chong was taken aback by his question, "Probably not."
"His position is based on his father's face, and the power he cultivated by himself is only that little. It hasn't been cleaned up in the past two months."
Fritz took two steps on the lawn, looking at the fountain in front of him.The water vapor seemed to have splashed a little on his face, which relieved the anger that had been burning too much all night, "Check again."
Lu Chong quickly understood, "Do you think Qin Kai has other connections in the military that we don't know about?"
He wanted to say directly that Friedrich was being overwhelmed, but when he calmed down and thought about it, he felt that this speculation was not unreasonable.Gu Huaipei was lying half dead in the hospital, and Qin Kai's hand could reach the military headquarters, so there must be other people's support.
"I'll find someone to follow me later."
Friedrich nodded, and turned around to go back indoors with him to continue circling.His expression was still ugly, Lu Chong had an idea, and suddenly said something, "By the way, that immersion record..."
The person next to him slowed down slightly, glanced at him, and was really interested, "Solved?"
"Almost, the people below say that it's only a few days' work." Lu Chong saw his relaxed expression when he mentioned Gu Huaiyu, and wanted to push but didn't dare to really speak, "It should be opened when he comes back from the hunting ground."
Friedrich showed his first sincere smile tonight, and patted him on the shoulder, "Thank you."
Lu Chong didn't realize that there was something wrong with Fu Lize's smile, but he quickly changed into a polite and alienated sneer, and said to the person walking slowly in front of them, "Secretary Qin."
"Mr. Fu is polite. I resigned from my position as secretary two months ago."
Lu Chong scolded in his heart that the road is narrow, and he was worried that Fu Lize would really conflict with him like this, so he asked someone to bring wine over in the middle, "Drink two glasses together?"
Under Gu Huaipei, Qin Kai has been doing these welcome and send jobs all year round, and his posture has always been kept very low, "Please."
Friedrich didn't look angry, and talked with Qin Kai, from the weather to the recent fluctuations in some energy and mineral prices, and it took a long time before he intentionally or unintentionally mentioned, "What does Mr. Qin think of the projects developed in the new district?"
"Good project. I heard it was Mr. Fu's handwriting." Qin Kai seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and his answer was watertight.
He was stabbed a few times by Friedzer, but that decent smile didn't show any signs of loosening, and he picked himself up clean.
"By the way, Mr. Qin bought someone a while ago?" There was no result after tit-for-tat for a long time, so Friedrich simply changed the topic, and said flatly, "Why didn't you bring it out today."
Only then did Qin Kai's face change slightly, and he smiled, "Mr. Fu is too nostalgic."
There was no trace of jealousy in his tone, but a hint of secret ridicule.Not long after, Lu Chong hung up again with a sigh of relief, and glanced at the person sitting in the middle.
Friedzer stared at him with a bland smile, "Just ask." He turned his face away from the laughing person on the other side of the sofa and raised his chin, "In a few days of gun hunting, if Mr. Qin doesn't bring anyone with him, Old Wu can prepare one for you."
Qin Kai smiled, and replied in a moderate manner, "I have to go, so don't worry about it."
"That's good, that's good." Old Wu received Lu Chong's wink, and hurriedly chatted to prevent the atmosphere from getting cold again.
After chatting for a while, the waiter came over and whispered something in Qin Kai's ear, and he politely got up and said goodbye.Lu Chong watched him return to the crowd, turned sideways and said to Friedrich, "He pretends to be pretty."
Fu Lize did not speak, put down his wine glass and said coldly, "Keep a few people, and when Qin Kai leaves the country, we will check everything that needs to be checked."
Gu Huaiyu took a shower and asked someone to deliver meals to the upstairs room.It is already early autumn, and the wind at night is a little bit cold.He sat on the balcony of his room and slowly drank a pot of Ceylon black tea, holding the teacup and looking at the somewhat empty courtyard.
The wind blew through his open neckline, the necklace slid slightly, and a small piece of skin felt slightly cool.Gu Huaiyu pursed his lips, put down his teacup and tried to contact Fu Lize.
But the man didn't bring the contact terminal with him tonight, and the person who answered was Fu Lize's assistant, who said with embarrassment that Mr. Fu was negotiating business with someone.
Gu Huaiyu spoke very well and didn't insist anymore, but instead asked, "When will he end?"
The assistant hesitated for a moment, looked at the man who was talking and laughing with his arms around a few steps away, and replied tactfully, "I don't know too well, just wait a moment."
After he finished speaking, he hurriedly ended the communication and went to listen to his orders.
Gu Huaiyu's hearing is very good, and the communicator has a good reception, so the movement on the other end inevitably leaks to his ears.
Wrapped in a very thin shawl, he stared at the flames dancing in the two bottles of tobacco teak wax on the tea table.The person who sleeps with Friedrich on the bed often changes, but the scented wax in his room has not changed for so many years.
Maybe the unlucky people will occasionally do one or two long-lasting things, so fascinating that people mistakenly think that they can be an exception.
Gu Huaiyu shrunk his body and fell back into the recliner, unwilling to move any more.But just as he closed his eyes, Qin Kai called in, with a slightly anxious tone.
He succinctly explained the conversation with Fritz tonight, "He may have suspected me."
The wool on the edge of the shawl rubbed against Gu Huaiyu's face, making it itchy, which made his voice sound less distant, "Don't let him investigate too deeply."
Qin Kai made it a habit to cover for his boss, expressing knowingly that he knew what to do.
After finishing the business, Gu Huaiyu saw that he had no intention of cutting off the call, so he waited patiently.
Qin Kai did have something to ask, "Xiao Yu, are you going to keep acting like this? In case one day Friedrich finds out that you are behind—"
After he finished speaking, he regretted it, and hurriedly swallowed the second half of the sentence.
Gu Huaiyu remained silent on the other end, and it took a long time to reply him softly, "No one needs to know everything that happens in this world."
"What Aze showed me was only what he wanted me to see."
It was near midnight when Friedrich's car drove into Gu's courtyard.The whole mansion had long been hidden in darkness, only the wall lamps leading to the upstairs rooms were still shining quietly.
After entering the door, Friedrich took a shower first, changed into his nightgown, and walked towards the stairs after feeling that the cloyingly sweet perfume on his body was no longer smellable.
There was no light in his room, Gu Huaiyu fell asleep on the deck chair on the terrace, his soft side face looked innocent and harmless in the thin light of the scented candle.
The necklace that he personally put on that afternoon was attached to the man's slender and beautiful neck, shaking slightly with the faint ups and downs brought about by his even breathing.
Friedrich couldn't help but bowed his head and kissed.
Gu Huaiyu woke up immediately, but he seemed to have guessed who was approaching him. He half-opened his eyes and looked around, and let out a small grunt, "I'm back."
"Yeah." Friedrich reached out and rubbed his neck tenderly, "I just fell asleep here, isn't it cold?"
Gu Huaiyu smelled the faint smell of unfamiliar perfume on his fingertips, finally opened his eyes completely, and replied calmly, "It's not cold."
Friedrich touched the necklace again, with a mellow voice, "Do you like it?"
Gu Huaiyu moved his hand hidden under the shawl, looked at him for a moment, turned his face away and said nothing.
He doesn't talk, Friedrich always has a way.He easily picked him up, brought him back to the bed in the bedroom, pressed him down and asked, "Do you like it?"
I didn't drink a lot tonight, and the emotions rushed to my head for no reason.But he didn't care about it, he just continued to ask questions while moving calmly.
When Gu Huaiyu didn't resist for a long time, he put his head on his shoulder and made a crying sound, and replied in a very low voice that he liked it.
Only then did Fu Lize feel satisfied, let go of him and stopped torturing him, and was willing to say anything nicely, and it took him a long time to comfort him and fall asleep again.
Gu Huaiyu has a familiar smell all over his body, he feels at ease and appropriate.
Fritz circled him from behind, staring at the side face in the dark.
People around you come and go, and you can easily tell him I love you.Only Gu Huaiyu, with a sincere heart, was extremely cautious when saying something he liked.
He is so serious that it is impossible not to believe that all the love he shows will be what you see is what you get.
The author has something to say: It is always necessary to pave the way, and now I am writing about the handle at most.
