Chapter 1 Unfamiliar
The late summer heat in Longcheng City has not yet dissipated, and the evening air is wrapped in a trace of heat.Xiao Mohe walked into Lantian Car Wash in a black suit with a briefcase in hand.Within 5 minutes, he changed into blue canvas overalls and walked out of the locker room.
He casually put a dirty-looking sweat towel over his shoulder and walked outside.At this time, the business of the car wash shop was cold, with only a blue BMW covered in foam parked at the door, and a colleague, A Yong, was washing the roof of the car with a high-pressure water gun.
The dazzling white light of the headlights shone from a distance, and after waiting for nearly half an hour, the business finally came.
Xiao Mo walked to the door, half-closed his eyes.He didn't notice that it was a black Rolls Royce until the luxury car suddenly stopped on the wet ground in front of the car wash shop.
Xiao Mohe stepped forward quickly, bowed his waist to say hello, the window glass of the cab slowly fell, and the middle-aged driver with meticulously combed hair said "wash the car".
The driver immediately turned his head back and said respectfully, "Master, would you please get out of the car first?"
"No need." Came a cold voice.
There are people in the back seat of the car.Xiao Mohe glanced back curiously through the open car window, his expression froze for a moment, and he hurriedly lowered his head.
is it him?
The driver told Xiao Mohe to finish cleaning as soon as possible, they were in a hurry.Xiao Mo and Lian said yes.
He walked quickly into the garage to get the cleaning agent, and when he came out, he wore a blue work cap on his head in addition to an extra can of cleaning spray in his hand.
During the car wash, Xiao Mohe lowered the brim of his hat all the way, lowered his head and lowered his eyes.
When cleaning the car windows, he could not see the people in the car, but the people in the car could see him.
I don't know if Ling Chongqing recognized him.
So what?They only lived in the same dormitory for one year when they were freshmen in college, and they could count a few words on their fingers.Although we met by chance three years ago, they are not even considered ordinary friends.
Wash the glass windows and side doors, followed by the windshield.
He walked to the front of the car, buried his head in cleaning the glass, and tried not to look into the car.When she inadvertently raised her eyes, her eyes went straight into the eyes of the man in the back seat of the car. Could it be that man was watching him?Xiao Mohe immediately lowered his head, hurriedly wiped the windshield of the car a few times.
The car washing time is only half of the usual time, and the charge is 80 yuan.This is a brand chain car dealership.
The driver didn't say anything, and drove away after scanning the QR code with his mobile phone to pay.
A white SUV then pulled into the driveway.Xiao Mo and Wuxia thought about it and continued to be busy.
The next Sunday, Xiao Mohe woke up early to visit his younger brother Xiao Qi in the Xiang'an Kang Nursing Home.This is his weekly itinerary.
Every time the younger brother saw him, he grinned.Today when he was holding his younger brother's arm, Xiao Qi suddenly cried out in pain, Xiao Mohe rolled up his sleeves, furious, and dragged his younger brother to the dean's office.
"What happened to the needle hole on Xiao Qi's arm?" Xiao Mo asked the three staff members who stopped him with red necks and two veins protruding from his white forehead.
"What are you making trouble about, the dean is not here!" The female staff member who grabbed his left arm was in her forties, wearing a red windbreaker, her voice was rough, and she was no less imposing than him.
His right arm was grabbed by a middle-aged man with a Mediterranean hairstyle.
The door to the dean's office was closed.
Xiao Mo struggled three times with the two people who tried to shake off the restraints, but in vain.
"Where is the nurse who takes care of Xiao Qi?" He asked loudly.
"If you mess around here again, we will call the police!" the middle-aged man threatened.
"Call the police." Xiao Mohe turned around abruptly, threw off the woman on the left, and vigorously tore off the hand holding him on the right.
He called the police.
Ten minutes later, a motorcycle police car with flashing lights rumbled into the nursing home.
Xiao Mo and Xiao Qi are holding hands.Xiao Qi shivered and stood behind his brother, his eyes as clear as a deer were dyed with a layer of panic.
"Hello, Comrade Police, this Mr. Xiao has been making trouble in the nursing home. We are a resting place here. He has seriously disrupted our normal work." The man with the Mediterranean hairstyle said politely, bending slightly.
Xiao Mohe raised Xiao Qi's arm, and gently rolled up the sleeves of his striped T-shirt, "There are three needle holes in my brother's arm."
The police asked the staff to call the nurse who took care of Xiao Qi to confront him.
The female worker said, "This female worker resigned two days ago."
"you--"
Due to the lack of physical evidence, there is no camera in the house where Xiao Qi lives, and it is difficult for the police to determine this matter. It is suggested that the two parties reconcile.
In a rage, Xiao Mohe stuffed all his brother's belongings into the travel bag, demanded the nursing home to refund the remaining one month's fee, and took Xiao Qi away.
Sitting on the bus, Xiao Qi dozed off with drooping eyelids.He let his brother sleep on his shoulder for a while.
Looking sadly at the busy traffic outside the window, Xiao Mohe was upset.
Yesterday morning, I received a call from Director Wang of Hongtu Company, saying that the auto parts contract worth 300 million yuan was not signed.The boss is urging him to find new clients immediately.
The man's indifferent face came to mind when he washed the car the night before.
Xiao Mohe is currently working as a salesman at Yiquan Auto Parts Company. In the past three months, his performance has been dismal, and he only receives a basic salary every month.When he couldn't make ends meet, he found a part-time job to wash cars at night.
A few days ago, I randomly flipped through the latest issue of the car magazine in the company, and the cover focused on the report on the ranking of the rich list.Xiao Mohe has never been very interested in this.He casually planned to turn over to read a report on the analysis of the auto parts market, when a face he knew flickered across the color page of the magazine.
Ling Chongqing, the CEO of the car manufacturer Xinwei Group, was selected into the top [-] of the new rich list.
Putting down the magazine that day, Xiao Mohe continued to live his two-point and one-line life from work to home, feeling the gap between his classmates.
There was a lot of traffic outside the window, Xiao Mohe pondered all the way, and decided to contact Ling Chongqing for a try.
It was evening when I got home.
Pushing open the door, a wave of heat came rushing in. He turned the floor fan to the maximum and let his younger brother rest to blow some air.
The rented old apartment was [-] square meters. It was located on the [-]th floor, the top floor.Because it is close to the company and the rent price is reasonable, I haven't changed houses for a year.
busy cooking.After dinner, he took Xiao Qi out, walked around the alley twice, found a housekeeping company, and booked a three-day confinement service.He has to go to work tomorrow and has to hire someone to take care of Kiki.
On the way home, he passes a "boutique clothing store" and enters the store to pick out clothes for Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi is eight years younger than Xiao Mohe, and his facial features are somewhat similar to Xiao Mohe's.Due to lack of oxygen at birth, his intelligence was only at the level of a three-year-old child.His eyes are ignorant and innocent, with an appearance of ignorance of worldly affairs.Due to staying in a nursing home for a long time, his complexion is pale, not in his early twenties, but like a high school student.
Xiao Mohe accidentally caught a glimpse of the lapel black jacket on himself in the full-length mirror. It was bought a few years ago, and the cuffs were worn shiny.
After trying it out, he bought two sets of sweatshirts for his younger brother.
When he got home again, he took out a transparent plastic storage box from the cabinet, and dug out the business card that Ling Chongqing gave him three years ago from the bottom.Without hesitation, he dialed out the phone.
After calling four or five times, the phone got through.Ling Chongqing should have been quite surprised when he heard his voice. He was silent on the phone for a few seconds. He thought the other party had hung up, and after a few hellos, he heard the other party ask, "What's the matter?"
He didn't go around too much, just exchanged a few polite greetings, long time no see, do you still remember me?So and so on, then Dao Ming came to ask if Ling Chongqing's company needs to purchase auto parts.
As expected, Xiao Mohe was rejected, and Ling Chongqing's reason was that they had no shortage of suppliers.
When I went to the company the next day, my boss asked me when I would find a new client, and if I couldn’t find them, I would leave.
Xiao Mohe hesitated all day and called Ling Chongqing again at night.
The strong rhythmic percussion music on the phone stimulated the eardrums, and the cheers and whistles of men and women came from time to time.
Xiao Mohe frowned, and asked him if he intended to order auto parts from Yiquan Company.
The man chuckled, "Okay, I'm at Yemei Bar now, you know the place, come here now."
Now?Xiao Mohe's heart skipped a beat.
"Give you a chance."
Xiao Mohe said yes.
At 09:30 in the evening, put Xiao Qi to sleep, and Xiao Mo went out immediately.
Standing at the door of Yemei Bar, the colorful lights dazzled the eyes.He felt in a trance, and three years ago, because of unemployment, he worked as a waiter here for a month.
I think I have done a lot of part-time jobs over the years, serving dishes, selling insurance, and doing promotions.The salary of my job is not high, and I have to rely on part-time jobs to barely support my life.
Ling Chongqing asked him to go to the Starry Sky VIP box, the most luxurious room in Yemei Bar.
Passing by the main bar, a red-haired lead singer screamed and sang hard on the stage. Men and women in cool clothes twisted their bodies with the deafening music, and the colorful spherical rotating lights projected mottled light.
Xiao Mo and Wei Zheng felt uncomfortable since they hadn't been to such a noisy place for a long time.
The private room is at the left end of the second floor, Xiao Mohe knocked on the door and opened the door to enter.
The light in the room was dim, and there was a row of men sitting on the couch, looking around, two men were kissing in the corner.
Xiao Mohe blushed, and wanted to retreat, but saw Ling Chongqing waving at him, signaling him to go over.
He hesitated in his footsteps, and walked slowly and uneasily.
"Young Master Ling, is this the new boy?" A young man next to Ling Chongqing in a tight white vest and a thick necklace around his neck asked with a smile.
The corners of Ling Chongqing's lips curled into a slight smile, but he didn't respond.
Xiao Mohe didn't react, his wrist was grabbed by Ling Chongqing, his body was unstable, and he was pulled to sit beside him.
Xiao Mohe trembled all over, and suddenly regretted it very much, he wanted to leave.
But Ling Chongqing put his hand on his shoulder.
