"Little Li, I've heard all about it. How about this, I'll find some time to discuss it with Little Shan. We can't do business like this, he's acting a little impulsive right now."
"Don't misunderstand, that's not what I mean. You have to tell him that the misunderstanding is even bigger. Everyone will be meeting again in the future, so it will be very awkward."
"No no, this matter is mine! I can do whatever he wants, but not in the business world. In the future, I will leave my huge family business to him to manage.
While Gao Junfeng and I were talking fervently, I listened quietly. I didn't know what they were talking about, but Gao Junfeng suddenly got angry, and his expression became extremely gloomy.
Li Ao specifically came to report Gao Kan's condition?
This was my first reaction, so I couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"
"Nothing." Li Ao replied, avoiding my gaze of inquiry, he stood up and spoke unnaturally: "Gao Dong, I'm sorry, I had agreed to meet you for the New Year tonight, and I don't know how to bring up that matter. I will take my leave first, so as to prevent Director Gao from seeing me here and misunderstanding me even more, there is no way to save myself."
"Alright," Gao Junfeng did not force him, and called for his secretary, "Old Zhang, see the guest out for me."
As he spoke, he said to me, "You play here. I'm old, so I need to rest first."
Then he got up and went upstairs.
Li Ao walked two steps before he suddenly turned around and said to me with a smile, "Miss Eyre, I wish you a happy New Year."
"Thank you, you too. Happy New Year."
Actually, I am not happy at all. Gao Junfeng's mysterious words, my biological mother might have been someone else, the one in the Intensive Care Unit that I called daddy. He was alone …
All of a sudden, all of the complicated feelings in my heart started churning inside. I couldn't feel the slightest bit of happiness, nor did I have the mood to accompany Gao Kan to socialize with his friends.
As I was sitting on the sofa in a daze, the butler suddenly walked over and said, "Miss Eyre, the carriage called by Director Gao will arrive soon. I'll have to trouble you to go to the garage to wait."
"Oh, okay." I stood up, took my jacket and headed towards the garage, then made up my mind and gave Gao Kan a call. I wanted to tell him that I can't accompany him when I have something to do.
As for anything else, just say "something you can't say." He's never been so enamored of me.
In the end, I called him twice, but he didn't pick up his phone. It was probably because he was playing on the phone and I couldn't hear it, so I wrote a message to him: "Hubby, I have something important to do. I can't play with you anymore."
After sending Gao Kan a short message, I followed the butler to the garage at the other side of the lawn.
When he reached the garage, he did not expect Li Ao to still be there. He leaned against the car and stared at his phone, thinking about something.
"What's wrong?" Out of politeness, I went over and asked him.
He put the phone back into his pocket and said, "It's fine. I fell down just now and my legs hurt. I was afraid it would be inconvenient to drive, so I decided to rest here for a while."
"He fell? Is it serious? " I noticed then that his expression was pained.
However, Li Ao still pretended to be relaxed, and shrugged with a smile, "Don't be nervous, I only occasionally fall once. It's snowing tonight, and the road is too slippery."
"Yes." Thinking of his leg, I said sympathetically, "If you can't do it, can I help you drive?"
"No need, I can do it. Don't pity me, I don't like being pitied by others." he said sensitively.
I didn't think that he would mind so much. I hurriedly explained, "You misunderstood me. I was just about to leave this place and wanted to hitchhike along with you."
"Really?" His eyes lit up. They were clear and a bit stiff.
"Yes." I called to the butler, who was about to leave, and told him not to let the taxi come to the villa. I'll take Mr. Lee's car.
"Yes," he said, and left.
"I finished this cigarette." Li Ao raised his hand.
"Alright." I took his car keys.
It's Land Rover's.
It contained a domineering aura, but it was not in the least bit ostentatious. It was quite in accordance with his personality.
Li Ao violently smoked as he started to cough repeatedly.
"Are you in a bad mood?" I couldn't help but ask Gao Junfeng when I remembered his angry expression.
"No, I'm afraid you're in a hurry. I don't usually do that. I only smoke once every once in a while. "
"Ehh, just slow down. I'm not in a hurry."
"Thank you."
In order to fill the short period of silence, I asked him, "What were you saying about Gao Kan to Gao Dong just now?"
"Nothing … …"
"Tell me."
"Don't misunderstand, I didn't intentionally speak ill of Director Gao, I didn't expect him to be so angry."
"No, that's not what I meant. I want to know what Gao Kan did to you."
Li Ao looked at me hesitantly. I threw him a smile that showed that I didn't mind, and he said, "Didn't our company invest in a new movie? Everything has been prepared, the Director Gao did not know from where he heard the news, he even took the actors and directors away. "
"What else?" My intuition is that Gao Junfeng will not get angry over this matter.
"Also, there's another TV show that's half done. All of the actors in the show suddenly broke their appointments. That is to say, the scenes that we've filmed previously have gone down the drain on the team's hard work. There have been three or four similar incidents recently. "
"What does he want?" Forget about Gao Junfeng being angry, even I feel that Gao Kan is being too excessive. Li Ao is a humble and low profile person, rarely appearing in public, it's impossible to offend him.
Just because he didn't like others, he made fun of them for no reason?
Previously, he had used the excuse that Li Ao and I were close as an excuse, saying that he wanted to kill him, but in this period of time, I had already taken note of it, and had never secretly contacted Li Ao before.
"I don't know what's going on either." Li Ao shook his head helplessly, "Miss Eyre, you know that I don't know many people in the continent. I've only met him by chance, I can't really offend him. I asked A Jin to come over to talk to me, but he just didn't want to talk to me. But luckily, the Gao Dong somehow found out about this matter. He invited me here tonight, and said that he would talk about it with the Director Gao on my behalf.
"Don't hold any hope." I understand Gao Kan too well, it's impossible for him to listen to Gao Junfeng's advice.
he asked, puzzled. "How?"
"Didn't you hear him say that Director Gao and Gao Dong are competing?"
Oh, in the business world, it's normal for father and son to compete. However, father and son, after all, are father and son, and work together on the battlefield. Then he sighed and said: "Miss Eyre, there are some things that I can only dare to say to you. Actually, when I came to the continent to work as a company, my mother was against it, so she signed a wager agreement with me, which is breaking all the rules. I can only win but not lose. "Actually, I'm very afraid of offending people."
He was depressed again.
"Where's your mother?" When I finished asking, I felt so foolish. I was sure that he had dinner at home, so I hurriedly said, "Hurry up and go home. It's more important to put aside things about work and reunite with your family, isn't it?"
"You're right, I also want to be reunited with my family. However, since she is abroad, I would like to accompany her. However, since she said that it wasn't a success, she didn't let me go home … I'm sorry, I said too much.
"No, I'd love to hear that. "The smell of the Spring Festival is very unpleasant for a person. I understand it very well." Probably because I felt the same way, I couldn't help but speak a lot more.
Li Ao gave a shallow smile and said: "You're not alone, he's with you."
Gao Kan...
At this point, I quickly checked my cell phone, when he sent a message saying that I wasn't feeling well and didn't want to go to Golden Glory, and I wondered if he had received it.
After checking my WeChat messages and missed calls, I didn't see Gao Kan's reply. Thinking that he was probably too busy playing cards to look at his phone, I dialed a number.
At this time, a reminder "I'm sorry, the number you have dialed has been turned off" came through the receiver.
This is bad, if I don't go to his meeting with his friends, I'm afraid he will be furious at me for not giving him face.
The thought of being scolded during the new year made me even more frustrated.
Seeing me put away the phone, Li Ao continued: "This is the first time I have experienced the Spring Festival by myself, I didn't think much of it at the beginning, but seeing that we are all reunited, I suddenly felt that …"
"Bang, bang ~ ~ ~"
A sharp voice suddenly sounded out from the grass patch in front of the garage, interrupting Li Ao's words.
"How, fireworks!" It's so beautiful! " He was so excited that he pulled me by the wrist and ran to the lawn.
The fireworks took many different shapes of flowers and blossomed in the night sky. As the flowers lit up, they reflected the snowflakes that fell into the mortal world, emitting bright and vibrant lights.
It was as if he had just stumbled into a fairyland. It was truly beautiful.
Ignoring the catlike snowflakes that fell on my face and neck, I raised my head and looked at them.
"Those are peony flowers! My mother's favorite national flower! " Li Ao was so happy that he sounded like a little kid, pointing at them.
"Rose." I also recognized one of them. It was probably due to his happiness. My originally dull mood also gradually relaxed.
"Wow, that flower looks like a rose. It's so lifelike!"
"Where?" I hurriedly patted the snow that dropped in front of my eyes, raised my head and looked at the flower in the sky, searching for the rose that Li Ao had mentioned.
However, the night sky had become unusually quiet and empty all of a sudden.
"Unfortunately, at that moment, no wonder my mom kept singing that song about fireworks." Li Ao said with a little sadness.
At this time, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, until my eyes were filled with water, causing my eyeballs to ache. I had no choice but to rub them vigorously.
His hand was suddenly grabbed by Li Ao as he shouted with a lively and excited voice, "It's here, it's here, it's here again! "Wow, so many roses."
