Yan Qiu hung up the phone, looked at the name in the address book, and didn't recover for a long time.

What Mr. Li said was not that I was going to pick up the wood carvings, but "I'm going to pick you up."

Why pick him up?Drop by for him to go home?

Although he couldn't figure out what Li Zhi meant, but because of his words, Yan Qiu felt restless all day long.

The completed works are put on the table by him, and he will take a look at them if there is nothing to do.

For a while, do you feel that your packaging is not up-to-date?For a while, I was worried that Li Zhi would be dissatisfied with the finished product?

So Yan Qiu would open it every once in a while to take a look.

In addition to the "hometown", there is actually a bird carved from pear wood.

The little bird was less than the size of a palm, with its head tilted back, and it was combing its feathers. Although it was not big, Yan Qiu carved it very delicately, and even every grain of the feather could be seen clearly.

This was a thank you gift to Li Zhi when he recuperated in the villa on the top of the mountain in his previous life.

In fact, when he handed over his trusteeship to Li Zhi in the previous life, Yan Qiu was also very worried. After all, after listening to Lu Ruan's introduction to the villa on the top of the mountain, for a wealthy family like the Li family, the rare treasures that the head of the family has seen should beCountless, will you simply look down on the things he engraved?

But other than that, Yan Qiu really didn't know how to express his gratitude.

After all, he had nothing at that time, and this was the only thing he could offer.

But what he didn't expect was that Li Zhi really liked it, which made him unexpected but delighted in the previous life.

In fact, "Hometown" was carved a few days ago, but when it was finished, Yan Qiu suddenly caught a glimpse of a piece of pear wood on the table, and he suddenly remembered the letter written to him by Li Zhi in his previous life.

Since he liked it in the last life, the aesthetics in this life should not change suddenly.

So Yan Qiu rubbed the pear wood for a long time, and decided to give Li Zhi another "gift".

When he was discharged from the hospital last time, Yan Qiu originally wanted to return the card with Li Zhi's tip stored in it.

However, Li Zhi did not accept it.

It's just that if he can't accept the money with peace of mind, he can treat it as a deposit for "hometown".

There was almost 100,000 in that card, how dare Yan Qiu just use it as a deposit, so he immediately replied: "There is too much money in this card, enough to buy 'Hometown' directly."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi immediately responded, "Okay, then treat it as my full purchase."

"But..." Yan Qiu always felt that there was still too much.

However, Li Zhi seemed to see through his thoughts, so he looked at him and said, "Yan Qiu, you have to believe that your works are worth the price."

Yan Qiu looked up at the serious look in his eyes, and was speechless for a while.

No matter in the previous life or this life, it seems that besides his aunt, only Li Zhi would trust him so much.

So Li Zhi can be regarded as a "big benefactor", and it shouldn't be a problem to please him a little.

When Yan Qiu looked at the lower right corner of the computer for the 108th time, the time finally reached six o'clock slowly.

Seeing that 59 changed to 00, Yan Qiu immediately stood up, wanting to look out the window.

However, as soon as he walked to the window, he was worried that Li Zhi could see him from downstairs, so he immediately retracted his head.

In fact, with Li Zhi's status, other people should usually wait for him.

So it shouldn't be on time, right?

But even though Yan Qiu thought so, his subordinates didn't stop moving. He quickly turned off the computer, packed up his things, and walked out with the wood carving in his arms.

But as soon as he stepped out of the office door, his footsteps involuntarily slowed down.

For some reason, thinking that it was Li Zhi who was going downstairs to meet in a while, Yan Qiu became nervous for no reason.

But he was also afraid that Mr. Li would be punctual, and he would wait for him downstairs if he arrived on time, so he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

It just went fast for a while and slowed down for a while, and Yan Qiu abruptly walked the distance of a few minutes, which was almost fifteen minutes.

When he walked to the entrance of the company, he saw a black Bentley quietly parked on the side of the road from a distance.

It was the same car that Li Zhi took him home last time.

Seeing this, Yan Qiu didn't dare to write any more ink, and walked quickly towards the car.

Just at this time, Fu Chenze came up from downstairs after the meeting, and was going to participate in a drinking party.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the company's gate, he saw a familiar figure in the distance.

Fu Chenze stopped, looked intently, and soon recognized that the figure from behind was Yan Qiu.

And he seemed to be holding something in his arms, and was walking straight to a black Bentley.

It has not been a few months since Yan Qiu was found, and he has no foundation in City A. How can he have a friend who drives a Bentley?

Fu Chenze subconsciously felt that something was wrong with him, so he quickly took out his phone and took a picture of him getting into the car.

"Boss Fu?" The manager at the side asked with some confusion.

"It's okay." Fu Chenze put away his phone after taking the photo, but his eyes were still chasing Yan Qiu's figure, until the black Bentley drove away slowly, then he withdrew his eyes and said with a complicated expression: "WeWalk."

As soon as Yan Qiu walked to the car, the driver got out of the car and opened the door for him.

Then I saw Li Zhi sitting in the back seat with a notebook in front of him, seeming to be working.

"Mr. Li." Yan Qiu called out.

Hearing this, Li Zhi turned his head and saw Yan Qiu coming down, closed the notebook in front of him with one hand, and said to him, "Come up."

Yan Qiu got into the car and sat down beside him.

Li Zhi seemed a little tired, he raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, and then he helped his glasses with his fingers, and then turned around.

Seeing this, Yan Qiu quickly handed over the box in his hand.

"Actually, there is no need to worry so much. Are you feeling better?" Li Zhi asked while taking the box containing the wooden carvings.

"It's much better." Yan Qiu replied, "Thank you for your concern."

"Are you afraid of me?" Hearing this, Li Zhi paused his fingers as he was about to open the box, and turned his head to ask.

The glasses on the bridge of Li Zhi's nose covered the expression in his eyes, making Yan Qiu somewhat unclear, but he subconsciously shook his head.

Li Zhi smiled slightly when he saw this, obviously not believing it, but he seemed to be afraid of Yan Qiu's nervousness, so his tone was a bit teasing, "Then why do you always call 'you'? Although I am a few years older than you, I barelyIf you are of the same generation, just say 'you'."

Although he was not used to it, Yan Qiu obediently responded, "Okay."

Li Zhi opened the box, took out the contents carefully, saw that there was a "little bird" inside, paused, and took out the contents as well.

"This bird?"

"It's a gift." Yan Qiu immediately replied, "Buy one get one free."

Yan Qiu held the two woodcarvings in his hands and looked at them carefully for a while, then turned around to look at him, held the "little bird" and asked back: "Do you really want to give it to me?"

Yan Qiu nodded immediately, "Yes."

Li Zhi smiled when he heard this, "Then I've earned it."

After speaking, carefully put the two works back into the box.

Then, as if thinking of something suddenly, he asked casually, "Have you eaten?"

Yan Qiu was taken aback by the question, although he didn't understand what Li Zhi wanted to do, he still replied truthfully: "Not yet."

"I don't have either." Li Zhi put the wooden carving box on his knees, resting his elbows on it, then turned sideways and asked seriously: "So, would you like to have a meal with me?"?”

"Eat?" Yan Qiu asked in surprise.

"Yeah." Li Zhi nodded, "Take it as a thank you gift."

"Is it okay? Xiaoqiu."

Yan Qiu sat down on the seat and looked to the right.

On the right is the entire transparent floor-to-ceiling window, from which one can overlook the best night view in city A.

This is a French restaurant, and it is said to be the most expensive restaurant in City A.

Of course, Yan Qiu didn't know much about these things, he just thought the scenery outside was pretty good.

The sky outside the window darkened little by little, and at the same time, the lights of the whole city were lit up step by step, reflecting the unique colorful lights of the city, and the ecstasy and luxury.

Yan Qiu thought that Li Zhi's "come to pick him up" was to send him home, but he didn't expect that there was still a meal.

Li Zhi handed him the menu and waited quietly for him to order.

Yan Qiu had never eaten French food, and he didn't know what was delicious, so he hesitated for a long time.

Li Zhi seemed to see his embarrassment, and asked, "Do you need my recommendation?"

Yan Qiu was naturally happy and handed him the menu back.

So Li Zhi chose a few dishes that he often eats.

Yan Qiu doesn't often eat Western food, but he likes the ones Li Zhi chose very much.

Halfway through the meal, Yan Qiu suddenly remembered something and raised his head and asked, "By the way, Mr. Li, are you... is your grandfather's birthday coming? Did it delay you?"

Li Zhi heard him subconsciously change his words, smiled, and replied: "There was no delay, you delivered it in time, and it will be Grandpa's birthday next week."

"That's good." Yan Qiu heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and finally he didn't waste his time in hustle and bustle.

"Next week is grandpa's 80th birthday, and a birthday banquet will be held at the ancestral house. May I invite you to come with me?"

Yan Qiu almost choked when he heard that, raised his head in surprise and asked, "Me?"

"Yes." Li Zhi looked at him gently, his eyes fell on the Buddhist beads on his wrist, and said slowly: "Grandpa should welcome you too."

Yan Qiu had no idea how Li Zhi came to this conclusion?After all, he has never even met the old man, so why would he welcome him?

So Yan Qiu felt that Li Zhi just wanted to be polite, so he waved his hand and replied, "Thank you Mr. Li for your kindness, I still won't go."

"Is there anything next week?" Li Zhi asked.

In fact, this was also an excuse, but Yan Qiu didn't want to lie to him, so he said truthfully: "Mr. Li, my status is embarrassing, and it's really not suitable."

Li Zhi understands his situation in Fu's family, and also knows his concerns, so he paused for a moment, looked at him and said, "Your identity is not embarrassing, you are my...friend."

Yan Qiu didn't expect Li Zhi to be so persistent, and finally agreed to his request.

For Mr. Li's 80th birthday, all kinds of business leaders will definitely be there. He probably won't even be able to meet Mr. Li, so it's good to make up the number.

It's just that since you're going, you have to prepare a birthday present.

It's natural for Li Zhi to give him something carved, but it's inappropriate for him to give it away, not to mention that the remaining time is so tight, it's not enough for him to carve another birthday gift.

So Yan Qiu decided to buy a gift.

Fortunately, Li Zhi's previous tip has never been touched, and it happened to be used to buy a birthday gift for Mr. Li, and the money was returned to him in disguise.

Yan Qiu was thinking about the birthday ceremony all the way, so he didn't pay attention to when the car stopped.

It wasn't until he saw the familiar scenery outside the window that he realized that he had arrived at the old house.

Seeing him in a daze, Li Zhi didn't rush him, but quietly waited for him to come back to his senses.

So when Yan Qiu raised his eyes, he saw Li Zhi looking at him quietly.

Yan Qiu was so embarrassed that he wished he could get in through a crack in the ground, so he said goodbye to Li Zhi quickly.

"Mr. Li, I'm here, I'm going back first."

"Okay." Li Zhi replied, and added, "See you next week."

Yan Qiu was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "See you next week."

Yan Qiu returned to the old house and found that the villa was still brightly lit.

Grandma has been staying behind closed doors lately. Grandpa is old and used to going to bed early. Usually he goes to bed early at this time. What's going on today?

Yan Qiu opened the door with doubts and walked in, and then saw Mr. Fu sitting on the sofa, frowning slightly, with a disapproving expression.

And sitting next to him was Fu Jianting, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Fu Jianting was talking to Mr. Fu, but when he saw Yan Qiu came back, he immediately stopped talking and turned to look at him.

Now Fu Jianting's attitude towards him is better than before, and there is even a bit of concern in his tone, "Why did you come back now? Are you feeling better?"

To Fu Jianting, Yan Qiu didn't want to say a word, so he just nodded his head as an answer.

Then he said to Mr. Fu, "Grandpa, I'll go up first."

"Go and rest early."

"You too." After Yan Qiu finished speaking, he walked upstairs.

However, as soon as he stepped up the steps, he heard Fu Jianting's voice continue to come from the living room, "Dad, you also know that although the Li family has many industries, the most powerful one is the high-tech industry..."

Li family?

When Yan Qiu heard these two words, he subconsciously slowed down his pace.

Then, I heard Fu Jianting continue to say: "Our company started as an industry, and there is something lacking in this aspect. I have been trying to develop it over the years, but there has been no result, so if we can negotiate the Li family project this time, we can buildOn the boat of Li's house, then our company will definitely..."

"Okay." Mr. Fu interrupted him, "If you want to do it, do it. If it really works out, it's your job. If it doesn't work out, keep doing your job well. I've already retired, so I can't handle it."

"Dad, you have retired, but you and the current member of the Li family have met each other in the business field after all. If you are willing to speak up, this matter will be much easier."

Mr. Fu glanced at him when he heard the words, "You really think highly of my old man, what kind of friendship do you meet by chance? What's more, have you forgotten what Shuangchi did at the ski resort? You are shameless and I want it.”

When Fu Jianting heard Mr. Fu mention this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face, and he couldn't help being silent for a moment.

But after thinking about it, this seems to be an opportunity, so he continued: "I heard that next week is the 80th birthday of the old man of the Li family. Let's prepare some expensive gifts, both as a birthday greeting and as an apology. Do you think this is okay?"

Seeing that he insisted on this, Mr. Fu didn't want to bother, but repeated again: "I repeat, if you want to do it, do it, if you can do it, it's your ability, if you can't do it, just continue to do your job."

"I've already retired, I can't take care of this anymore." Mr. Fu said and stood up.

"It's getting late, let's go back."

Fu Jianting saw that Mr. Fu had already finished his words, so he could only give up for the time being, "Okay, then I'll go back first, Dad, you should go to bed early."

Mr. Fu waved his hand at him, turned and walked towards the stairs.

Yan Qiu hurried upstairs when he heard footsteps.

After listening for a long time at the stairs just now, he understood that Fu Jianting wanted to take advantage of Mr. Fu's 80th birthday banquet to invite Li's family, but with the size of Fu's family, he was not qualified to receive the invitation at all.

When Mr. Fu was still in charge of the company, he once met Li Zhi in the business field. Although he only met a few times, Fu Jianting still wanted Mr. Fu to take advantage of him and get an invitation letter.

But was rejected by Mr. Fu.

However, although Mr. Fu refused flatly, Yan Qiu always felt that given the character of the father and son of the Fu family, he would not just give up like this, and would definitely think of other ways.

Yan Qiu originally resisted the birthday banquet next week because he didn't know Mr. Li, but when he thought of this, he suddenly looked forward to it.

Three days later, Fu Shuangchi's trial will start, which happens to be the weekend.

Naturally, Mr. Fu would not go to such an occasion, but he knew that Yan Qiu would definitely go, so he was already waiting in the living room early in the morning.

In fact, he had a lot to say, but the moment he saw Yan Qiu, he couldn't say anything.

He knew that the Fu family owed Yan Qiu a debt.

So I just said, "Come back soon."

Yan Qiu met Mr. Fu's eyes without saying anything, just nodded, then turned and walked out.

When he arrived, there were already many people sitting in the courtroom. Yan Qiu took a glance, but Lu Ruan and the others didn't come, only Fu Chenze was sitting in the first row.

Seeing this, Yan Qiu also walked to the first row and sat down two seats away from Fu Chenze.

Fu Chenze turned his head when he heard the movement, and seeing him, his eyes immediately changed.

Yan Qiu knew his feelings for Fu Shuangchi, and also knew that he must be feeling uncomfortable at this time, so he deliberately smiled at him, and said hello: "Brother, you are here too."

Fu Chenze's face became even uglier when he heard this, but it was not easy to get angry, so he just glanced at him lukewarmly, and turned his head away.

Seeing this, Yan Qiu didn't continue to talk to him, but just quietly looked not far away, waiting for the court to start.

Soon it will be time for court.

Fu Shuangchi was brought in.

In fact, it seems that it has only been a few months, but Fu Shuangchi seems to be a completely different person. He is wearing a loose prison uniform, his hair is so long that it almost covers his eyes.They all exude a gloomy and gray atmosphere.

So Yan Qiu didn't even recognize him at first glance.

As soon as he walked in, his eyes fell on the auditorium.As soon as he saw Fu Chenze, his eyes immediately showed great expectation and surprise, and the next second he saw Yan Qiu next to him.

Fu Shuangchi's expression changed instantly, strong hatred burst out from his eyes, his teeth bit his lips, and he was about to rush towards him.

However, as soon as he moved, he was firmly held down by the bailiff next to him, and then he was brought to the trial seat.

"Defendant Fu Shuangchi, on January 22..."

After reading the plaintiff and the defendant and the course of the case, the judge announced: "The court is now open!"

The trial ended very quickly. After all, all the evidence was convincing, and Fu Shuangchi's lawyer was powerless, and couldn't find anything to excuse him.

In the end, as expected, he was sentenced to ten years in prison.

When the verdict came out, Fu Shuangchi collapsed on the spot, crying while leaning on the railing in front of the auditorium, and shouted to Fu Chenze: "Brother, help me, I don't want to go to jail, brother, I know I was wrong, I dare not do it again."

Seeing his pain, Fu Chenze stood up subconsciously, but he also knew that he couldn't pass, so he could only look at him weakly, with his hands curled up by his sides.

Yan Qiu was not in a hurry to leave, and sat quietly watching their "brotherly love" scene.

A little bit of what happened in the previous life emerged in my mind.

Birthday, snow field, hometown, car accident...

And today, Fu Shuangchi finally paid the price for everything he did.

Looking at Fu Chenze's expression, Fu Shuangchi knew that he couldn't help herself this time.

So he turned his gaze to Yan Qiu who was at the side.

The eyes were full of hatred and resentment, "It's all because of you! It's all because of you! Yan Qiu, I won't let you go!"

Hearing the words, Yan Qiu stood up slowly, looked directly at him, moved his lips slightly, and made a mouth gesture to him.

In fact, the distance between them was not too close, but Fu Shuangchi still clearly recognized that sentence.

"This is what you deserve."

"Yan Qiu! I'll kill you! I will definitely kill you! I won't let you go! Yan Qiu, wait for me to get out..."

Fu Shuangchi completely collapsed, trying to break free from the bailiffs on both sides, but was quickly held down and taken out.

Yan Qiu watched Fu Shuangchi being dragged out bit by bit by the bailiff, still yelling his name reluctantly, shaking his head with some emotion, this man is really hopeless.

After the trial was over, Yan Qiu was also preparing to leave.

However, as soon as he left the court, he was suddenly stopped.

Yan Qiu turned around, and saw Fu Chenze striding over.

Just now I called Big Brother to tease him, but now that Fu Shuangchi has finished his sentence, Yan Qiu is no longer in the mood to joke with him, so he directly asked, "What's the matter?"

Fu Chenze didn't speak, but looked down at him for a long time, and suddenly smiled. This smile was mixed with sarcasm and sarcasm, which made Yan Qiu feel a little uncomfortable.

He was too lazy to play silent drama with Fu Chenze, so he turned around and wanted to leave.

But suddenly he heard him say indifferently: "Yan Qiu, you are really capable."

Hearing this, Yan Qiu raised his eyes and glanced at him.

Then I heard him continue to say: "First, you deliberately didn't tell us that you were going to have the operation. After you finished it secretly, you called grandpa to show sympathy, moved to the old house, asked grandpa to be your backer, and then sold your lust and sugar daddy. It seems that you areReally trying to compete against me."

Obviously, Yan Qiu could understand every word he said, but it made him a little bit at a loss when they were connected together.

Gain sympathy, find a backer, a sugar daddy?

Although the latter sugar daddy did not know where he came to his conclusion, but the former one seeking sympathy for his grandpa is really a standard idea of the Fu family.

"What do you mean?" Yan Qiu asked back.

"What do you mean?" Fu Chenze took out his mobile phone, found the photo he took at the entrance of the company that day, and handed it to Yan Qiu.

Because the distance is a bit far, the picture is not clear, but it is still enough to see what Yan Qiu is holding onto a black Bentley.

Because of the angle, couldn't see the people and the license plate in the car clearly, but it can be seen from the car model that it is an elegant Bentley, and the people who can drive this car are either rich or expensive, so Fu Chenze instantly thought of the nastiest thing.kind of thing.

Yan Qiu did not expect that Fu Chenze would bump into the scene when Mr. Li came to pick him up that day.

Not to mention that he would be able to charge himself with a single photo.

Yan Qiu was about to be laughed out of anger, "So?"

Fu Chenze took back his phone and looked at him quietly, with a condescending expression and contempt in his eyes.

"So Yan Qiu, you really make me sick."

The author has something to say:
