Chapter 18: A Pie in the Sky?

Mo Zishi said he wanted to introduce my girlfriend to me, and he thought I would be moved. This was an incredible thing for me. He asked me again: "Where are you now?"

I told the truth: "I am on the way to Shanghai."

"That's great... Look, this is fate. Today I just talked about this with a girl. You came by yourself in the evening, just like a script set up. I think this matter will definitely be done!... But you don't have to thank me, this is my duty!"

I was so confused that he asked after a while: "Dr. Mo, are you really a brain doctor?"

"certainly!"

"I strongly suggest that while showing your head, you should also pay attention to your own brain health. I heard that some brain diseases have incubation periods, and once they break out, there is no cure for them!"

Mo Zishi was stunned by my words, then reacted and said angrily: "You really don't understand American humor. I have communication barriers with you! It's too damaging to speak!"

"You don't understand the feelings of the descendants of Yan and Huang very much... The love arises and goes deeper, do you understand the meaning of it?"

"If it is passed down from feudal society, you can also believe it as a creed, it is extremely pedantic... You don't even look at it. In the city of Shanghai, how many people break up and divorce every day. If you are so stubborn, you will be regarded as a monster by others!"

"I don't feel ashamed to be a monster for love...Doctor Mo, the signal on the train is not very good, so I won't say much. If you are willing to give me a chance to treat you to dinner, I will treat you to dinner sincerely. Thank you for helping me and Mi Cai so much!" I said and hung up the phone, then looked at the scenery flashing outside the car window, shook my head and smiled... This Mo Zishi is quite interesting. Although he deliberately did something bad, he was also very funny! God knows which one he fucked me for leisure.

......

It was already spring. At 6 o'clock, there was still a sunset hanging in the sky of Shanghai that was radiating afterglow towards the earth. People who had finished work were still in a hurry, busy with supper and ease the fatigue caused by daytime, so the whole city was swallowed by busyness. Looking around, it was really difficult to find a place for the soul to live here. The ubiquitous pressure seemed to be the innate temperament of this international metropolis, which made the leisurely sunset look very inconsistent!

I remembered countless farewells starting from the airport in this city... I suddenly didn't like this place!

I bought a bouquet of flowers and prepared to give it to Jian Wei later. When I just paid the money and waited for change, my shoulder was patted by the person behind me. I subconsciously turned my head and it was Mo Zishi who stood behind me. He looked at me and smiled, saying, "Fortunately there was no traffic jam on the road, otherwise I wouldn't be able to catch up to pick you up!"

I looked at him with surprise, not knowing what to say for a moment, but I just felt that this person didn't like to leave room for others when doing things! But there was nothing I could do with him. After all, I saw him doing his best in Jian Wei's affairs with my own eyes. Sometimes he spared no effort to do the work that the nurse should do. I couldn't turn against him for this, although I felt a little unhappy!

He looked at the flowers in my hand and smiled and said, "Zhaoyang, I think you are a man who can figure out the situation. As expected, even the flowers are ready. The girl I will introduce to you later will be very happy to see that you are so sincere!"

I was silent for a while before replying: "It was given to Jian Wei."

But he ignored it and said to me directly: "My car is parked in the parking lot opposite. Let's leave now. I made an appointment with the girl at 7 o'clock. If I don't get the traffic jam on the road, it will be too late!"

I finally got a little angry and asked sternly, "What's this?"

He was not anxious or impatient, and said with a smile: "This is something that requires you to show your demeanor. At least I have already made an appointment with someone else. If you succeed, you have to go to an appointment, and then keep your demeanor and buy the order... Didn't you say you wanted to treat me to a meal before, even if this meal is ready."

I really couldn't compete with him, and I couldn't stand being so annoyed by him so endlessly, so I simply agreed to his request to go to the appointment. I really wanted to see. He introduced me to the fairy who came down to earth, and he dared to press the word "heartbeat" on me again!

......

Before night came, Mo Zishi drove me to the Western restaurant he had booked in advance. Along the way, I didn't say anything except asking him about Jian Wei's physical condition these days. I just looked at the tall buildings and viaducts outside the car window, but forgot about their appearance in the next second. I really couldn't deeply integrate into this city I didn't like very much.

We arrived at the restaurant within the agreed time. Before getting off the bus, Mo Zishi reminded me to bring the bouquet of flowers that were originally intended to be given to Jian Wei, but I could not cooperate with the demeanor he had wishful thinking and directly opened the car door and walked into the restaurant in the most straightforward way.

This is a very high-end Western restaurant. Even the waiters in it use the most authentic European and American people. The soothing European and American songs played with a simple but unstoppable decoration style makes the whole restaurant look very stylish. This is indeed a favorite place for upper-class people. Along the way, I have seen countless luxury goods placed by women. Therefore, I really don’t suspect that the woman Mo Zishi introduced is a woman who is very materially, otherwise I would not have been to date in this restaurant with obvious consumption characteristics.

Mo Zishi finally caught up with me. He looked at a position near the window. I also followed his gaze and saw a young woman. Perhaps because Mi Cai's appearance was lingering in my mind, I was so unwilling to describe the appearance of this woman. Although she looked extraordinary and had unforgettable whitening skin...

Mo Zishi nodded to the woman before me. When we approached, the woman stood up from her seat politely and waited for Mo Zishi to introduce each other to us. Mo Zishi first said to me: "Zhaoyang, this Miss Qi Zhihui is a friend I met when I was studying in the United States. After returning to China, she has been working in a financial unit and is the most typical golden-collar clan in Shanghai."

I politely said "happy" and Mo Zishi said to Qi Zhihui again: "This gentleman is Zhaoyang. He currently runs two companies, and there is also a mobile game company in preparation. I heard that the financing has been successfully raised. His companies have a market value of over 100 million yuan, so he is definitely the leader in our post-80s generation!"

It is not surprising that Mo Zishi praised me so high. He just wanted to use the loneliness and loneliness that I had developed after Mi Cai left, so that Mi Cai would stay in the United States without any worries and let Yan Zhuomei arrange it... I am indeed lonely, indeed lonely, and the visible temptation is even more irresistible, but he underestimated me in the end. I have regarded waiting for Mi Cai as the most important belief in my life, even if this belief is so pedantic and stupid in the eyes of not understanding people!

The three of them sat down. Mo Zishi and I sat on one side, Qi Zhihui sat alone. Mo Zishi called the waiter to start ordering. I looked at the small world that shrank outside the window absent-mindedly, and then picked up the free tea and took a sip. At this moment, my mind was not on this blind date that was insisted on being arranged. I was still worried about the funding gap of the advertising company. Even if I transferred the property of the literary and artistic industry in Yangzhou, there would be at least 15 million yuan in debt that could not be repaid. This would be my biggest crisis in the future. I believe that if I don’t pay back this debt for one day, the troubles of the advertising company will not be stopped all day. Maybe it won’t take long before I will receive a summons from the court to face the lawsuits caused by debts.

The order was delivered to us by the waiter in turn, and the dinner officially began. At this time, Mo Zishi began to busy match me and Qi Zhihui again. He said, "You two are my friends, and I think you are really suitable, so I introduced you to you today. If you have plans to develop further, I will really feel that I have done something particularly meaningful! After all, you are also at the age of getting married when men are old and women are old."

Qi Zhihui looked at me and then smiled... It seemed that she was waiting for me to express her opinion first, but this indifference was enough to prove that she was a woman who had many emotional experiences. At this stage, she could cut off her feelings and treat them.

I responded politely to Qi Zhihui with a smile, and then said to Mo Zishi: "Brother Zishi, can you answer my questions in front of Miss Qi Zhihui?"

"Uh...this is OK."

"You have to make sure you will treat every issue of mine truthfully, otherwise it will be difficult for us to continue talking."

Mo Zishi was afraid that I would leave at any time because I was dissatisfied with his arrangements, so he hurriedly replied: "I will definitely answer truthfully!"

I asked him with a serious expression, "Do I have a girlfriend at the moment?"

Mo Zishi was stunned at first, and then replied: "Uh... Yes, yes, but..."

I interrupted him and asked again: "Next question, has my girlfriend made a clear statement to end her relationship with me?"

"This... I really don't need to be clear about this. Everyone knows that she has gone to the United States. She may have been there for three to five years. Besides, you and your girlfriend are no longer in their early 20s. I really don't have much time to squander for you. As for people, you still have to stay in front of you..."

The person who interrupted Mo Zishi this time was Qi Zhihui. She said angrily: "Okay, Mo Zishi... You treat your friends like this, saying that you are introducing your boyfriend to me, but in fact you want me to be a mistress who destroys other people's feelings. What kind of bad intentions are you pressing?... This friend can't do it, go and die!"

Qi Zhihui became more and more angry as she spoke. She got up and picked up the bag beside her and smashed Mo Zishi, and then left angrily. Mo Zishi didn't care about the blind date anymore and hurriedly chased Qi Zhihui's direction to let her listen to her explanation. I shook my head and smiled, feeling relaxed because of the end of the farce. Then she forked his untouched steak onto her plate to ensure that she could eat enough tonight, and then cheer up and face the severe challenges tomorrow.

......

The next day, I got up early, went to the advertising company, and made work arrangements for the relevant personnel. I asked all the remaining planners to go on business trips in Beijing and Shenzhen to give them the opportunity to contact some planning companies serving the game industry. The purpose of this is to hope that they can adapt to the transformation of the planning project in advance. Furthermore, I don’t want the debt troubles in the company to affect their mood. I decided to take this matter alone and recall them after it is resolved, so that they can have a peaceful mind to face the next work. At this time, only me and the financial director are left in the company.

Today, several suppliers and previous advertising business partners came to ask for the debt. Their attitude was quite fierce and even smashed some of the company's equipment in excitement. But I still understand that there is indeed some of their company's operations because our debt was not paid in place, which affects the operation of their company and even has the risk of bankruptcy. In these days, it is not easy for anyone to do business. I can only keep appeaseing their emotions and guarantee that 30% of their debt can be paid off within three days, so that they can solve the urgent problem first. This money comes from the transfer of Yangzhou's industry on the road of literature and art. However, the practice of demolishing the east wall and repairing the west wall is not a long-term solution after all... I am deeply distressed by it!

At noon, while the financial director and I were sitting in the office eating fast food, I suddenly received a strange call. After answering, I asked, "Hey, hello, who are you?"

"I am Sun Youmin from the Bank of Communications and Sunshine Branch."

"Hello, hello, President Sun!" I said repeatedly, but I was very surprised. Why did he call me? Yesterday I really went to the bank to discuss applying for a commercial loan with him, but he refused.

"Are you free this afternoon? ...I want to meet and talk to you about something."

"Of course I have time...well, did I go directly to the bank to find you?"

He hesitated for a moment and replied, "You don't need to use the bank anymore. We will meet at Pinya Teahouse at 2:00 pm."

I agreed, but my heart became even more confused. I originally thought that he called me because there was a turning point in the business loan matter, but he asked me to meet at Pinya Teahouse. What exactly did it need to be avoided from interviewing in the bank, and what variables exist here?...

.........

At two o'clock in the afternoon, I came to Pinya Teahouse as promised. I met President Sun, who had been very repulsive to me in the private room on the second floor. His briefcase was placed on the table very conspicuously, obviously not to find me for private conversation.

After I greeted him, I sat down opposite him. He didn't say anything gossip and said to me directly: "Mr. Zhao, we have never dealt with each other before, but this time I came to you, I really brought you good news.

I kept calm and asked, "What's the good news?"

"A friend gave me 15 million in private and asked me to transfer the money to you. If you go back, you will provide me with your own private account or company account. I will transfer the money to you."
