Chapter 71

Before Luan Qiaoqing came back for the second trip, Song Shu had already found an empty dining table in the cafeteria. She had arranged the plates for the two of them to make meals. She was bored and supported her forehead and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window.

The office building where vio Capital is located has a typical modern and cold office style. The outer periphery from the first floor to the 22nd floor are floor-standing fiberglass that have been anti-sighted. From the inside to the outside, you can see the glitter reflected in colorful and mottled lights on the glass, and the figures inside are blurred and difficult to distinguish.

So Song Shu could look at the crowds and traffic outside the window without any scruples, without worrying that anyone would notice it.

However, with her personality, even if she is caught by someone, she will only smile and nod at the other party and then look away, and she will not feel any more disturbed in her heart.

——Except for those who have grudges, love and hate with her, Song Shu has never been too lazy to pay more attention to it. She has known that she is like this since she was a child, and she never thought of changing it.

In recent years, she has been busy collecting evidence for her mother Bai Song's case, studying the law and studying finance, analyzing similar financial cases, and not letting go of any clues... Time flies in her hard work, and every day seems to have no extra time to think about the problem beyond clearing her mother's grievances.

Now that things are resolved, she feels at a loss-

As the end of the year approaches, large enterprises like vio Capital are also responsible for countless large-scale asset management that require year-end summary reports. As a special assistant, she is often busy.

But the body is busy at work all day long, but the heart seems to be floating very high, floating towards the clouds or at the end of the sky, without falling...

"Hey."

A sudden funny noise in my ear brought back Song Shupiao's thoughts.

With a light pat on her left shoulder, Song Shu paused, turned to the right, and unexpectedly saw Luan Qiaoqing tiptoeing over her right.

After a faint glance by Song Shu, Luan Qiaoqing suddenly lost her face, "What's wrong with you? Are there eyes behind your head? I obviously patted your left shoulder, why are you turning right?"

Song Shu curled his lips lightly, "The fingers that fell on his shoulders are facing the wrong direction - next time you pat my left shoulder with your right hand, I will probably look left."

“…”

Luan Qiaoqing was stunned. She looked down at her left hand that had just been slapped by Song Shu, stood there thinking for two seconds, and suddenly realized, "Yes, if you were standing on your left, you would normally use your right hand to shoot."

Song Shu: "."

Song Shu sighed silently in his heart. It would be strange if such a foolish girl met someone wearing Tyrannosaurus Rex skin hiding a fox core. She would not be eaten clean.

When Song Shu sighed, the "fool sister" unconsciously felt her cousin's complaints and had happily sat opposite Song Shu for gaining new experience skills.

"Sister, what did you just look at?"

Song Shu was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes slightly, "Didn't you say that you shouldn't call me like this in the company?"

"I didn't have a loud voice, no one could hear it, so don't worry." Luan Qiaoqing finished muttering in a low voice, coughed lightly and cleared her throat, "So, 'Assistant Qin', what were you looking at just now?"

Song Shu didn't care about the sarcastic spirit that Luan Qiaoqing deliberately made, and she lowered her eyes lightly, "I didn't see anything."

"What is it that I didn't see?"

"." Song Shu glanced at her and was helpless, "Is it okay to be in a daze?"

“…”

Song Shu didn't hear the response for a while. She got used to the 24-hour noise that Luan Qiaoqing was following her. She raised her eyes unexpectedly and saw Luan Qiaoqing staring at her with a sad face.

Song Shu put down the bowls and chopsticks, "If you have anything, just say it. It's not your personality to hold it in your hands."

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just a feeling..."

"Um?"

"It feels like you always seem absent-minded since that case was resolved."

Perhaps because of the surprise of Luan Qiaoqing's sensitivity, Song Shu was slightly stunned, and then smiled faintly, "It's just that the strings are tightened for too long, and it's a little uncomfortable to suddenly loosen."

Luan Qiaoqing wrinkled her nose at Song Shu, showing a disgusting expression, "That's right, it's your expression now. Every time I show it, I feel that it's the time when you are most absent-minded - I'm too lazy to think about how to be sincere and perfunctory - if you were like this before, I wouldn't have discovered it until then."

“…”

Luan Qiaoqing's eyes also showed a little suspicion, "So you were just perfunctory and you didn't feel that way in your heart, right?"

Song Shu came back to her senses from the moment she was stunned. She sighed silently and her eyes fell back to the food in front of her. "Don't think so much," Song Shu picked up the bowls and chopsticks, "With that time, it's better to put this rare intelligence on yourself."

So that you won't even know if you're about to be "eat" by someone.

It is naturally impossible for Luan Qiaoqing to hear Song Shu's subtext. She reached out and held Song Shu's hand without thinking, "Don't think about avoiding the topic. Sister, cough... Assistant Qin, you are really worried about your current state, you know, right?"

"What are you worried about."

"It's just a feeling." Luan Qiaoqing frowned and said with great difficulty, "I always feel like you are pinched out of air. The next second, the gust of wind blows over you will dissipate."

Song Shu lowered his eyes slightly and smiled, "Did you watch too many science fiction movies?"

Luan Qiaoqing looked at her even more suspiciously: "Then tell me, what is the reason why you have never been willing to find a way to restore your original identity?"

Song Shu didn't look up, "It's too troublesome, and there's no need."

"What's the problem? How come it's unnecessary!"

"There are only a few people who are truly related to that identity. You and Qin Lou both know that this is enough, what's the point?"

“…”

Luan Qiao is speechless.

After a few seconds, she felt unwilling to raise the chopsticks and poked the rice in the bowl hard to vent her anger, "But I feel that you are ready to leave here at any time."

Song Shu was stunned.

It was not until now that Luan Qiaoqing said that she felt that the truth behind the undesolate and empty hidden in her heart was revealed.

It turned out that after Bai Song's ties were untied, she felt like a rootless duckweed, without a center of gravity or direction, and she could not see where she came from and where she came from.

And at least here, this city that has left behind the pain that she least wants to remember is not her return in her heart.

Luan Qiaoqing was rarely smart and became alert from Song Shu's moment of sleepiness in the past few seconds, "Do you really think so?"

"...No," Song Shu came back to his senses, and the focus was fixed, "at least not now."

Luan Qiaoqing listened to her tone, and she didn't seem to be perfunctory, asking hesitantly: "Why? Is it because of me-" Luan Qiaoqing's eyes lit up.

Song Shu broke her fantasy in time: "Because Qin Lou can't get rid of it now."

Luan Qiaoqing: “…………”

Song Shu calmly explained while having a meal, "This incident is a good opportunity. The benefit of the turmoil at the top of the board of directors is the replacement of old and new - vio is now in the period of adjustment and blood exchange between senior and middle-level backbones. This rare opportunity to clear the old system must not be missed for Qin's companies. Qin Lou cannot leave at this time, so of course I have to accompany him."

Luan Qiaoqing twitched the corner of her mouth, "For him, it's gone?"

Song Shu blinked, smiling, "Otherwise."

Luan Qiaoqing pointed at herself expressionlessly, "I am no longer a human in your eyes, right?"

Song Shu smiled, "Qiaoqiao, you are in your 20s, don't be like a child. Just like I can leave, there will always be new people who will appear and accompany you as someone who is even more unforgettable."

"…!" Luan Qiaoqing was anxious, her eyes were red as soon as she said it was red. She reached out and grabbed Song Shu's hand, "I don't want others to accompany me! I will always be with you-"

"You dream."

A cold and cold voice interrupted Luan Qiaoqing's words without mercy.

Song Shu's hand that had not had time to be held by Luan Qiaoqing was held in his palm with a hooked knuckle. The speaker was sitting down and glanced at Luan Qiaoqing coldly.

"It's impossible to keep you by her side all the time. You'd better not even think about it."

Luan Qiaoqing was furious and glared at the man who was called down by her but didn't know how to show her mercy.

Only then did Song Shu realize that the cafeteria was much quieter at some point, obviously because of the arrival of the company's boss, the voices of chatting or talking had already consciously silenced - and Song Shu and Luan Qiaoqing were devoted to chatting before and were completely unaware of it.

Song Shu recalled Qin Lou's itinerary and asked in a low voice: "Why are you here? Didn't there be an annual report from the Investment Decision Committee this morning? Is it over?"

"No." Qin Lou glanced lightly at Luan Qiaoqing, who immediately bowed her head with guilt after hearing Song Shu's words. He withdrew his gaze and fell on Song Shu. "I just heard that you came to the cafeteria. Considering that there are always some false rumors in the company recently, I will go to the official to correct the audio-visual."

“…What are the false rumors?”

Qin Lou recalled, "For example, if you just look superficial, or if I treat you badly, have you fallen out of favor?"

Song Shu: "."

Song Shumu turned his head to look at Luan Qiaoqing with a face.

Luan Qiaoqingzheng also looked at Qin Lou with surprise. After receiving Song Shu's dangerous gaze, she immediately shook her hand hard, "It has nothing to do with me, really! I didn't say anything but said you were bullied in the cafeteria. Isn't this specific thing I told him - Qin Lou, do you know how to read minds??"

"... Pay attention to the name." Qin Lou frowned, "And this is in my company. After determining the time, place and person, is it difficult for me to know what happened?"

Luan Qiaoqing: “…”

Luan Qiaoqing, under the gradual cooling of her cousin's eyes, slowly lowered her sinful head, "I'm sorry, I will never report it again."

Where the two of them couldn't see, Luan Qiaoqing grinded her teeth fiercely in anger: Especially for people like Qin Lou who have no conscience, she is a fool if she talks about it again!

Qin Lou had already come down, and Song Shu knew that it would be useless to argue with Luan Qiaoqing again. She stared at Luan Qiaoqing helplessly for a few seconds, and then looked back at Qin Lou.

"As the general manager of the company, especially in such critical periods, you still need to set an example. Leaving the seat without authorization during the meeting will make other employees of the company think..."

"I'm hungry." Qin Lou suddenly spoke.

Song Shu's voice automatically stopped. At this time, the corners of the peach-blue eyes of someone in front of her drooped slightly, deliberately making a pitiful look, and his eyes were also dim, "The meeting was almost 12 o'clock and it was not over yet, so I heard that you were downstairs."

Song Shu couldn't say anything else before she could say anything. She was silent for two seconds and stood up helplessly, "I'll go and get you a meal, you can wait for me here."

"Um."

“…”
