Chapter 21: chapter 21

On the second day, Ji Linchen personally demonstrated the ppt to Tang Shumi in the family projection room on the third floor, explaining in detail the causes and consequences of the entire incident.
Tang Shu Mi nestled on the sofa, her eyelids drooping listlessly.
She didn't listen at all.
"Do you understand?" Ji Linchen asked her.
Tang Shumi straightened up, twisted her neck, yawned, and said, "I didn't listen."
Ji Linchen:...
Turn off the projector, the screen suddenly turns black.
At the same time, Ji Linchen's face darkened, "Shu Mi, are you challenging my patience?"
Tang Shumi shook her head with a blank face: "Do I have one? I don't have one."
After speaking, Tang Shumi jumped off the sofa and went straight out of the screening room.
In the next few days, Ji Linchen left early and returned late.
Tang Shumi was already asleep when she came back, and she was still asleep when she went out.
Occasionally, during the day when the two were at home at the same time, Tang Shumi didn't even look at him or say a word.
The days just passed by day by day, and most of October has passed.
In autumn, the weather gradually became colder.
Ji’s development of townhouses in City A a month ago, close to the Bund Scenic Area, tried to make them the most luxurious bungalows in the country. Coupled with the establishment of the "Yunyou" subsidiary that researches and develops artificial intelligence in City A, Ji Linchen is very busy.
Tang Shumi hadn't seen anyone for half a month. If it weren't for Ji Linchen's handsome face and seven-second memory, Tang Shumi would have forgotten what he looked like.
In the fall, Tang Shumi started to be lazy and unwilling to travel far.
The only schedule is the tea party, the new product launch and the beauty salon.
Today, Xu Mingzhu asked her to check in to an online black tea restaurant. She chose an ancient Omi white dress with a stand-up collar on the upper body and a skirt that reached the knees, which outlined her slender but material figure.
It is also equipped with a light khaki painter hat, and crystal black agate ear studs are hung on the white porcelain earlobes.
The lipstick is the selected red, elegant and noble with a little bit of beauty.
Tang Shumi was very satisfied, and went out with her lv bag.
Xu Mingzhu was waiting in the store early, half of the mango velvet on the plate was eaten, and when she saw Shumi came, she flipped through her mobile phone to show her.
Su Zhen's small round face appeared on the screen.
Su Zhen is still moving bricks in broken companies in remote areas. There is no high-end western restaurant, and there is no big shopping mall with luxury goods. The only pastime is to chat with Shumi Xu Mingzhu on voice and video.
From the very beginning, I was madly complaining to them and telling them about their workplace experience with a smile.
This is a restaurant. Tang Shumi didn't bother to listen to her, so she asked Xu Mingzhu to hang up the video.
Xu Mingzhu asked her while eating dessert, "Do you think Su Zhen has become more confident in speaking?"
Tang Shumi raised her eyebrows.
"This is the charm of making money by yourself." Xu Mingzhu sighed.
Tang Shumi raised her eyebrows again, with a light and casual tone: "Oh, then you go too."
Xu Mingzhu shook her head and said with a smile: "No, people still have to recognize themselves. I'm happy to be a rice bug." She looked at Shu Mi and thought after a moment: "Do you have any ideas?"
"what idea?"
"Do you remember Ji Yun's yacht par last time? A director gave me a business card and invited me to participate in a variety show called "Walk with Jiangcheng Ladies"" Seeing Shumi interested, Xu Mingzhu put down her small silver fork slowly Said: "There are not many people in our circle who are willing to show their faces and enter the entertainment circle, but some little ladies are very keen to participate. I think there is Li Shishi's name on the guest list.
"It was originally a curiosity show. I wanted everyone to see how the rich live, and those who agreed to participate were not rich enough. The director wanted to find someone who is unique." Speaking of this book, Mi raised her eyes. , Xu Mingzhu said: "A program group like you knows that it won't be invited, so it won't take a fancy to me."
"One million one episode." Xu Mingzhu asked tentatively: "Why don't you go?"
Tang Shumi frowned: "It's only one million. How about sending beggars?"
"If you are willing to go, the program group will definitely offer more than this price."
"I can still consider the 10 million episodes." Tang Shumi said with her arms around her arms.
It takes only 10 million to participate in ten episodes, so she may not be able to afford a painting she casually fancy.
"……I will help you ask."
After not sitting for a while, Xu Mingzhu suddenly received a call from home to go to Wang's house for dinner.
She hung up the phone and sighed: "Look, this is the consequence of being a rice bug."
Commercial marriage is not allowed to refuse!
After Xu Mingzhu left, Tang Shumi sat alone for a while before getting up.
I received a call as soon as I left the restaurant.
There was a familiar and unfamiliar voice over there, and Tang Shumi was taken aback.
"Hey, is it Mimi?"
Tang Shumi raised her mobile phone and looked up at the sky with a cold face. Tang Guohai actually called her personally without the sun coming out to the west.
Tang Shumi suddenly remembered that on the first day she returned to China, Qin Hailan took advantage of Tang Guohai's absence to point her nose and scolded her for having a mother.
She rushed up and slapped her face. This scene happened to be seen by Tang Guohai who was going home.
Qin Hailan sat on the ground and cried, Tang Ci cried with Qin Hailan in her arms, and the mother and daughter hugged her and cried so much that Tang Guohai almost blushed.
Tang Guohai came over and slapped her without saying a word, making her dizzy, tinnitus, and nosebleeds flowing out.
Tang Shumi squeezed her fist, couldn't help but stared at him coldly.
Tang Guohai pointed to the door and told her to get out of the Tang house and never come back.
She dragged a box with nothing to Ji's house. Ji Linchen, who had not yet been engaged to her, took her to Shanshui Yipin, where she lived until she got engaged and moved to Mingyuan.
There was no sound on the phone, but the voice was a little helpless: "Mimi, Dad knows you are listening."
Without hearing a response, Tang Guohai sighed: "It's been so long, no matter how I am your father, you are my biological daughter."
Tang Shumi just wanted to laugh. Tang Ci was his own daughter in her eyes.
"For your mother's sake, let's go home." The other end of the phone sighed deeply, his voice was unusually old.
Tang Shumi's heart tightened. The day after tomorrow was her mother's death. Tang Guohai should have called for this.
Tang Shumi went to worship last year's death alone. Ji Linchen returned to China this year. She wanted to ask him to go with him so that his mother could meet her boyfriend. But Ji Linchen was very busy, and he didn't formally marry her, and could not speak after thinking about it.
"Mimi?"
Tang Shumi took a deep breath, gritted her teeth and said, "Okay."
It has been raining heavily for several days in city a, but it cleared today.
After the rain, the air was sober, and the pace of work picked up.
Zhao Yan went into the office to report on the progress of the project as usual. Ji Linchen listened and asked suddenly: "What is Tang Shumi doing?"
"...Miss Tang" Zhao Yan was stunned for half a second, quickly switched the interface, and called up Tang Shumi's itinerary record. Recently, he reported on time every night at night. He glanced at the top time display and it was only 4 o'clock.
If this continues, will Miss Tang become a confidante? Will the boss not love Jiangshan and beauties?
Zhao Yan's doubts were quickly eliminated. After he finished the report, Ji Linchen nodded and immediately asked him about the progress of the project. The connection was extremely smooth, as if the trip report just now did not exist.
But after the report, Ji Linchen asked again: "Are these two special days?"
He has an excellent memory and is extremely sensitive to dates.
Tomorrow the day after tomorrow is October 24 or 25, not a holiday or someone's birthday. Zhao Yan's mind quickly turned, and the boss who didn't even care about his birthday suddenly cared about what these two days were.
With a flash of inspiration, he immediately thought that it might be related to Miss Tang.
As a gold medal assistant, Zhao Yan has recorded important dates as far as the Ji family’s own people and as far as the birthday of his partner’s wife.
He opened the backup file, checked the dates related to Tang Shumi, and quickly found the remarks on October 25th.
"Mr. Ji, tomorrow is Miss Tang's mother's death day." Zhao Yan said.
Ji Linchen leaned on the chair, fingered his knees; "Move the meeting to the morning, and book a ticket for returning to Jiangcheng tomorrow."
Although the security of Country Villa is not as good as Mingyuan, it is also blamed.
When the security guard saw that the number plate was not an internal vehicle, he didn't give Tang Shumi a pole. He looked at the valuable car and walked out of the security booth to respectfully ask where it was.
Tang Shumi half-driving the window, replied: "Building a2."
The security nodded and said that he needed to register, and Tang Shumi waited quietly.
The bar rose slowly, and she looked at the boulevard that stretched forward and lost her mind. She didn't step on the accelerator until there was a car behind her horn.
Entering zone a lightly on the road, the house scene moving back is familiar and unfamiliar.
Tang Shumi lived in Country Villa for fifteen years.
She parked the car, got out and walked to the gate.
I didn't press the password for a long time, and finally raised my hand to change direction and pressed the doorbell.
The door was quickly opened, and the servant walked ahead to lead her into the dining room, for fear that she didn't know the way, Tang Shumi only found it funny.
As soon as he entered the dining room, Tang Shumi saw Tang Guohai in the upper seat, with Qin Hailan and Tang Ci sitting on the right.
Tang Guohai is over fifty years old. Although his temples are gray and white, his facial features are still delicate and exquisite. You can vaguely see that he was handsome and extraordinary when he was young.
It was this look that fooled Tang Shumi's mother, Su Xiuyu.
"Mimi." Tang Guohai stood up, his eyes trembled with tears, "Come sit down."
The maid pulled away the chair on Tang Guohai's left, and Tang Shumi walked over and sat down blankly.
The dishes were on the ground one by one, and Tang Guohai asked one by one: How are you doing? How did Ji Linchen treat you? You used to have stomach pains when you were young. Does it hurt anymore? ...
He seems to be a loving father who moved the world.
Tang Shumi replied briefly in single-syllable characters, and the tone was obviously impatient.
She is not here today to listen to these unnecessary words of concern, she is for her mother's death.
No matter how Tang Shumi hates Tang Guohai, she can't ignore what her mother said to her before leaving: Shumi must be good and remember to listen to her father.
With this sentence, she endured her mother's absence and Tang Guohai brought back Qin Hailan and Qin Ci less than half a year later. She endured Qin Zi's change of surname to Tang and became her sister. She endured Tang Zi's seizure of her bedroom. Too much too much.
She couldn't bear it until that picture.
Tang Ci did not commit suicide at all, she went to the bedroom with a knife to threaten her to announce the truth.
The knife saw no blood, and she was forcibly sent out of the country by Tang Guohai.
Seeing that Shumi didn’t answer at all, Tang Guohai’s face was embarrassed, and Qin Hailan came out to calm the atmosphere: "Guohai, I think you’re really old and talk a lot more, now young people don’t like listening to us old people’s comments. Talking, I feel annoying."
Tang Shumi stopped her chopsticks and gave her a cold look.
Tang Ci curled his lips, turned his face to Tang Guohai and acted like a baby: "Dad, don't listen to mom's nonsense, I love to hear you talk, the more you talk, the happier I feel."
This sentence came to Tang Guohai's heart. Most of his elders were not because he cared about his children. He looked at Tang Ci with a petting smile, and at the same time a bit of bitterness rose in his heart-if the book honey could be like Xiao Ci Up.
Tang Shumi watched this family-friendly melodrama blankly, without any fluctuations in her heart.
The main character, Tang Ci, took advantage of Tang Guohai's carelessness and blatantly glanced at Shumi, his face full of triumph.
Tang Shumi sneered at the corner of her mouth.
Whatever you want, these are not rare for me.
Qin Hailan glanced at Tang Guohai calmly and motioned for him to say business.
Isn't she able to sit at the same table with Tang Shumi and eat calmly for the next thing?
Tang Shu honey chews wax, put down his chopsticks, and wanted to talk about his mother's death first, but Tang Guohai was the first to speak.
"Shu Mi, Dad has something to discuss with you."
Tang Shumi looked at him: "You said."
Tang Guohai looked embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, Qin Hailan gritted his teeth and said, "Can you transfer part of the Blue Sky Construction shares you hold to Dad?"
"Why?" Tang Shumi asked coldly.
She did have 30% of the shares in the family company. When her mother was diagnosed with lymphoma, she set up a testamentary trust and transferred all her shares to her.
Speaking of Tang Shumi is still the second largest shareholder of Blue Sky Construction, Tang Guohai, the largest shareholder and chairman of the board, also holds only 40%.
"You know, even though Dad is the chairman of the board, he didn't even own half of the company's shares. It would be a hindrance to the development of new industries."
After listening to Tang Guohai's words, Tang Shumi's mouth evoked a sneer. Although she entrusted all the matters of Lantian Construction to the trust, she was not stupid.
Those small shareholders only accounted for 30% of the shares, and Tang Guohai was obviously fooling her.
"I can give it to you." Tang Shumi's face was calm, "but it depends on the market value."
In recent years, the blue sky construction has gone from bad to worse, and Tang Guohai will not have a lot of funds in his hands.
Tang Guohai paused obviously, his face sinking slightly.
"Shu Mi, how can a family talk about money?" Qin Hailan accompanied the smiling face, in a gentle tone, "Talking about money hurts feelings."
Tang Shumi sneered: "Who is with your family? My mother died a long time ago."
"Shu Mi!" Tang Guohai scolded her.
Tang Shumi was not afraid. She smashed her chopsticks with a snap. She looked at Tang Guohai from a high position, biting her lip and asked, "You asked me to come just for this?"
"Mimi, dad only needs 20% of your shares." Tang Guohai warmly persuaded her, "You have 10% left. The annual dividend is enough for you to spend, not to mention that you half-footed into the season. By the door of the house, the Ji family has only one son, Ji Linchen, you--"
"Enough!" Tang Shumi stood up, holding back tears, and turned to leave.
She really couldn't stay in this disgusting place for a second.
"Shu Mi." Qin Hailan hurriedly came over and took her arm and was opened by her backhand.
With a sigh, Qin Hailan hit the table with her back, and the dishes broke to the ground.
Tang Ci screamed, and Tang Guohai had to stand up to help Qin Hailan.
"Tang Shumi, how did I give birth to such a vicious daughter like you? I wanted to kill Xiao Ci, but now I want to kill your stepmother!" Tang Guohai's eyes burned.
Qin Hailan pulled Latang Guohai's sleeves, and said pitifully with tears in her tears: "Guohai, don't blame Shumi, I accidentally hit the table, and it has nothing to do with Shumi."
"It doesn't matter, I think she did it on purpose!" Tang Guohai said angrily.
"Yes, I did it on purpose, so you don't want to see what they did!" From the bottom of her heart, she didn't want to confront Tang Guohai, but she just couldn't stand this grievance.
Tang Ci rushed out with tears on his face, "Shu Mi, I have always regarded you as my own sister, and my mother also regarded you as her own daughter. Everything we do is good to you, and we have nothing to apologize for."
"Good to me? Seduce my fiance to be good to me?" Tang Shumi sneered.
Tang Guohai lowered his brows: "That's just a misunderstanding! Hasn't Xiao Ci already clarified it?"
"Oh, you said yes." She looked indifferent, without the desire to speak again.
Seeing her calm expression, Tang Guohai said: "Don't mention it again when the matter is over, sit down and continue eating."
Tang Shumi stood still.
"I said, I won't care about you hurting Xiaoci and Hailan anymore." Tang Guohai looked at her, "After all, everyone is still a family, and is it not good to be nice? I have to make the world upside down. Are you satisfied?"
"Also, transfer your shares to me tomorrow." Tang Guohai saw her face calm, thinking that Tang Shumi was moved by her.
Tang Shumi looked at her father and smiled coldly: "You dream!"
Tang Guohai patted the table sharply, and said sharply, "Do you think the shares in your hand are really yours? I didn't give it to your mother in the first place!"
Tang Shumi smiled: "Do you want a face? Without my mother and my grandfather, where did you get the money to become a developer? Maybe you are still squatting and begging for food in a corner!"
Tang Guohai's face turned pale when he was poked into his spine by his own daughter. He pointed to the direction of the door: "Get out of here. Get out now."
Get out again. Can you change something new?
Tang Shumi let out a cold voice, squeezed the palms of her hands and said, "Tang Guohai, listen carefully."
She pointed to herself, "I, Tang Shumi." After a moment of pause, she tried her best to spit out the following words: "From today, we will cut off the relationship between father and daughter!"
"Tang Guohai, you are not worthy to be a father."
Before turning around, he finally said with a sneer, "Want shares? Go in your dreams!"
"Tang Shumi!"
She ignored the angry shouts behind her, she walked quickly, her mind was blank, and there was a voice in her heart that kept saying: Hurry up, get out of this ghost place, and never come back again.
The heavy rain came suddenly and fell like a waterfall. Tang Shumi stood at the door looking at the sky, even God wanted to bully her.
She numbly opened the bag and took out the car key. Just after the car made a beep, two headlights suddenly lit up in front of the green belt opposite.
I didn't pay attention before, but there was another car parked on the opposite side.
Tang Shumi walked straight into the rain, and the moment she opened the front door, she froze.
The door on the opposite side opened, and Ji Linchen walked down and opened a black umbrella.
Wearing a dark black suit, he blended with the night, looking from a distance, cold and precious.
The rain crackled on the umbrella surface, the sound from far and near.
The heart that had calmed down suddenly fluctuated at the moment when he saw him.
His eyes met, his eyes were as emotional as before, but Tang Shumi couldn't help but flushed: "Ji Linchen, why are you here?"
The author has something to say: Ji Gou and Fugui are casual, and Yazi who is not good at roostering the author.
I will be sad, woo woo woo. (Top pot lid)
