Although it was a Saturday, Bai Shiqi still had to work overtime. He had been busy with the listing recently, and there were many things in the company that needed him to do. Although his father, Bai Junfeng, was the chairman, he did not come to the company often due to health reasons. Most of the time, he was looking for Liu Qingyang. Uncle Shao Kang was busy with work and had no choice. Of course, his father, Bai Junfeng, would look for him.
Ever since he had cleared things up with Liu Qingyang, there were several times when he saw how tired his father was. He really wanted to tell his father that Liu Qingyang was back. He really was back. However, he had promised Liu Qingyang that he could only help his father share the burden when he was in a dilemma. He and Liu Qingyang had searched through the old files that were kept at that time, but there was still no clue. If there was, Liu Qingyang would have found it long ago. Why would he wait until now? The knock on the door woke Bai Shiqi up from his daze.
Secretary Qiao Li pushed the door open and entered. Bai Shiqi smiled when he saw Qiao Li enter. Qiao Li always acted like she was doing her job. To Qiao Li, he was just her boss. She did not want to have too much intimate contact with him because she had a boyfriend. She loved him, but why was he always so distant from her? She had always been confused. If he had a girlfriend, she had been by his side all these years. If he didn't, why had he been smiling for no reason recently? It seemed that he really had a girlfriend. Then what was she?
"CEO Bai, this is your schedule and arrangements for next week. In addition, the CEO of Meilan Group wants to meet you. CEO Wang of Heng Fang Group also wants to ask you when you have time to meet. I've replied to the rest for you. Only these two bosses were very difficult to deal with.”
"I understand, Secretary Qiao. Are you free tonight? Today is Saturday, and I made you work overtime with me. How about this? To express my apology, I'll treat you to dinner tonight.”
"No need, President Bai. I have an appointment tonight.”
"Is that so? Is he your boyfriend? Looks like I was a little despicable to keep you company, causing you to be unable to accompany him. If you have the time, introduce me to him. I want to see which handsome guy managed to woo our beautiful Secretary Qiao.”
"Alright, CEO Bai. I'll definitely ask him to visit you when I have time. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first.”
"Remember to have fun tonight." Actually, Bai Shiqi wanted to ask if he could not go, but he did not say it out loud. He liked Qiao Li, and everyone could see that.
Back then, he had just graduated and joined the company. He didn't know anything. His father told him to familiarize himself with the business as soon as possible. Just as he was having a headache, Qiao Li came to apply for a job. Seeing her petite and lovely appearance, Bai Shiqi was immediately attracted. He decided to hire her immediately. The position was his general manager's secretary. At that time, many people were shocked. A fresh university graduate could be the general manager's secretary. They didn't know what medicine had been bought in the general manager's throat.
However, Qiao Li didn't disappoint him. She helped him adapt to everything in the company. Sometimes, he didn't know how capable this little woman was to adapt to everything in the company in such a short time.
He still remembered one time. At that time, although their restaurant company had just started and the food factory had just been built, they had received a report that their food production process had been contaminated. The food produced did not need to be put on the market. At that time, it had caused a huge reaction in society. If it was not resolved properly, the company would close down, not only would the food factory stop production, but it would also implicate the restaurant to close down. The impact of such a matter was too bad.
At that time, Bai Junfeng and Shao Kang had gone to Guangdong to look for Liu Qingyang. If they were there, Bai Shiqi would not have to worry. However, there was no other way. After this incident, Bai Shiqi had to bite the bullet and rush forward. Just as Bai Shiqi was at a loss, everything calmed down overnight. Just as he was puzzled, the vice president told him that it was Qiao Li who solved it.
It turned out that it was an employee they had fired in the past who had spread rumors and caused trouble on the Internet. Qiao Li had only found out about it when she accidentally chatted with the workers below. Later on, she called the police and the police caught the person who had spread rumors and caused trouble. The incident had also subsided. From then on, everyone looked at Qiao Li in a new light, including Bai Shiqi.
Bai Shiqi could not say that he liked or loved Qiao Li. He just felt very comfortable being with her. She would help you take care of everything. Other than work, she would not say anything else. Sometimes, Bai Shiqi even wondered if she would smile. It turned out that her smile had already been given to someone else. Bai Shiqi was a little unwilling. It was not that he had not pursued Qiao Li before, but this smart woman would always find an opportunity to reject him. Perhaps she was deliberately keeping Bai Shiqi in suspense. At first, Bai Shiqi thought so too, but later on, he realized that this was not the case. Bai Shiqi wanted to figure out what was going on, but he could not find anyone to talk to. Now, he could only look for Ren Zhong, who was Liu Qingyang.
He had grown up with this good brother of his. Although they had been separated for more than ten years, he did not know why. Bai Shiqi sometimes realized that they were never apart. Now, when he had something to do, he would look for Liu Qingyang, and Liu Qingyang would look for him. When there was nothing, the two of them would drink and chat together. This kind of life was like returning to their youth. Although they could not drink at that time, Liu Qingyang would secretly take out some cigarettes from home. Then, the two of them would hide in a corner and slowly taste the taste of cigarettes. The pocket money given by the family was used to buy cigarettes or drinks. At that time, they all liked to drink a drink called Ice Peak. It was the kind that came in glass bottles. After drinking it, they had to return the bottle to others. A bottle was 50 cents. Bai Shiqi even stole money from home to buy this drink. When his father, Bai Junfeng, found out, he even beat him up.
Thinking about it now, sometimes he really missed his childhood days. Now, this kind of drink was still available, but the price had risen to two yuan. There were also some places that sold it for 1.50 yuan, but for some reason, it didn't taste like it did when she was young. Perhaps it was not the taste of the drink that changed, but the mentality of the person who drank it. Bai Shiqi hadn't smoked a single cigarette since the incident at Liu Qingyang's house. He didn't know why.
Perhaps he was afraid that he would think of his good brother when he smoked! However, when he had nothing to do, he still went to the Ministores not far from his neighborhood to buy ice cream. Now, they also sold canned ones. It was very convenient. Bai Shiqi was very familiar with the boss. Every time he went to buy drinks, the boss would hand him a can of ice cream. He would always smile at the boss, then pull open the ring of the can, raise his head, and drink in big mouthfuls. The taste was too good.
Perhaps Bai Shiqi would never have thought that Qiao Li's boyfriend would be Liu Qingyang. Moreover, Qiao Li had come to their company for Liu Qingyang. What Bai Shiqi would never have thought was that Qiao Li was their classmate when they were young. However, they had not seen each other for so many years. How could he remember? Back then, he and Liu Qingyang had bullied the four-eyed girl who had transferred from other places in the class. However, Qiao Li was not called Qiao Li at that time but Qiao Meini. After Liu Qingyang's family had an accident, Bai Shiqi had never thought that Qiao Li would be their classmate. Liu Qingyang's mother took Liu Qingyang to the northeast. Liu Qingyang had never contacted anyone in the class, and no one knew where he went. Qiao Li was transferred to another school not long after Liu Qingyang left because of her father, so how could Bai Shiqi remember her? She only attended that school for one semester.
Qiao Li's father was a soldier, and he had a good comrade in the Northeast. It was also a coincidence. Qiao Li was in her second year of high school, and her father took her to the Northeast for summer vacation. Coincidentally, they met Liu Qingyang. At that time, he had already changed his name to Ren Zhong. At that time, Ren Zhong had promised that Jolly would not tell anyone that she had seen him. After that, they kept in touch. In the end, Qiao Li was admitted to a university in the northeast. She did it for Ren Zhong. It was said that puppy love was the most sensitive topic among students. Qiao Li fell in love with Liu Qingyang at first sight. At that time, she had just joined the class. Liu Qingyang and Bai Shiqi were the naughtiest and best students in the class. They always liked to play with her eyes and often bullied her. Liu Qingyang said that he liked to see her cry, so she cried for him.
Back then, when she found out that something had happened to Liu Qingyang's family, many of his classmates stayed away from him. Only Qiao Li stayed by his side and comforted him. However, she knew that Liu Qingyang did not like her. She did not know why. All these years, no matter what methods she had used to force or seduce him, he just didn't like her. She had asked him many times, but she never found an answer. She regretted it, but there was nothing she could do. She just liked him. Perhaps this was fate. She went to the Northeast to attend university. Coincidentally, her father had also been transferred to the Northeast.
Their family was reunited again. When she was young, she especially envied the children of other families who could have the company of their fathers, but she did not. Her father was always busy with work and her mother was not in good health. She said that she was like a migrating bird, accompanying her father back and forth. In this regard, her father had always felt sorry for her. But what could he do?
It was normal for soldiers to be transferred here and there. Obeying orders was always their first mission. Qiao Li had graduated from university and wanted to look for a job, but Ren Zhong told her that he needed her help, so she went overseas to attend university without hesitation. She majored in hotel management.
After she returned to the country, she saw that Dynasty Group was hiring. Even the heavens were helping them. After entering, she quickly gained Bai Shiqi's trust. They were the ones who started the rumor. Their goal was to make the directors of the company trust Qiao Li. In the end, they did it. The person who was arrested was quickly released from the police station under Liu Qingyang's behind-the-scenes manipulation. In the past few years, Qiao Li had been hiding under Bai Shiqi. No wonder Liu Qingyang would mention that their company was listed on the stock market that day. It was not strange at all.
Bai Shiqi drove to the Ministores where he often bought drinks. He wanted to buy more and go to Liu Qingyang's school to drink with him. However, when he arrived at the school, he found out that Liu Qingyang was not at school. He wanted to give him a surprise, but he did not expect Liu Qingyang to give him a cold shoulder. When Bai Shiqi was about to get his car, a familiar car passed by him. Wasn't this Qiao Li's car? Why was her car here?
Just as Bai Shiqi wanted to find out what was going on, he saw Qiao Li and Liu Qingyang getting out of the car. Qiao Li was intimately holding Liu Qingyang's hand. What was going on? How did the two of them know each other? Bai Shiqi's mind went blank. He really wanted to rush up and ask, but his rationality told him that things were not that simple. Seeing Qiao Li and Liu Qingyang happily go upstairs, Bai Shiqi sneered and drove away. He wanted to know why. The only answer he got was the wind blowing outside the car window.
