Chapter 154 Old Fox
Chapter 154 Old Fox
Devore Everth's sudden turn of attitude was too unexpected.Except for Gu Yan and Yan Suizhi, the others couldn't come to their senses at all, and the one with the most bewildered expression was Qiao.
He opened his mouth and froze for a long time, but he couldn't find a suitable sentence for a long time.
When Joe finally came back to his senses, DeVo Ewes had already stepped out of the terrace and was telling his assistant something.
"Wait!" He took a step after him.
DeVo Ewes stopped at the stairs, glanced at him, and continued to speak to the assistant: "—cut off the video in the office, do not accept any meeting invitations within these two hours, and there is no need to start any new ones." You have to deal with the specific situation and report later. In addition, let them prepare several afternoon teas for several guests, and two of them will be delivered to my office."
The assistant nodded, he didn't want to be caught between the father and son's Shura field at all, he turned around and left after receiving the task.
DeVo Ewes then turned to Joe, his gray-blue eyes were very shallow, and whoever he looked at would always make people inexplicably nervous, as if he was being scrutinized.
He glanced at Joe's face and said, "Leave without slamming the door? What else do you want to say?"
Joe took a deep breath, and tried to suppress the complicated emotions in his heart, "Your words before were wrong."
"Which one?"
"You said that you won't get any benefits by telling me. You have what I have, and you can't fill in any new information for you, so you have no reason to tell me." Joe said, "I am very uncomfortable to hear this sentence. I I didn't know why I was uncomfortable just now, but now I understand it...you are talking about business, you have been using the thinking of making a deal to measure what I said, considering my request, and then making a decision with the thinking of talking about business."
DeVo Ewes looked at him. "That's true, but what's wrong with that? I'm a businessman."
"But I am your son."
Joe gritted his teeth and let go, and said, "I am your son, not your business partner, nor your negotiating opponent."
This time DeVo Everth didn't answer right away.
He just looked at Joe quietly, and said after a while: "Really? But from the moment you entered the door, you spoke in the manner and tone of a negotiator seeking investment with a plan."
"I didn't!" Joe subconsciously retorted.
But after refuting, he found that he couldn't find any evidence to prove this sentence.
Everything he said from entering the door, to sitting on the balcony, to the official opening... In retrospect, it was indeed more like a person who came to ask for cooperation than a son.
Joe froze for a while, and slowly lowered his eyes, "I didn't, I didn't mean it. I told Eunice, and I didn't intend to anger you. I... I'm just used to it, and I can't change it for a while."
He spread his hands and scratched the hair on the back of his head again.Obviously holding back the words but at a loss, I don't know how to pour them out.
"I... When I saw the results of the handwriting comparison in Wine City, I was actually very happy. I was very, very happy." Joe said, "But the more I was happy, the more nervous I was. I was afraid that I might make a mistake in some part of the process. I am very happy today. Come, I just want to hear something from you..."
As long as there is a firm sentence, saying "Those things that kill people have nothing to do with me, I am on your side", that is enough.
But Joe's throat was a little tight, and he suddenly stopped talking, and he didn't know how to continue, so he could only hang his hands in silence, and looked at DeVo Ewes, who he always called the old fox. Father.
He is so smart that even if he doesn't finish speaking, he can definitely understand it.
DeVo Ewes looked at Joe for a long time, then nodded suddenly, "Okay, let me tell you something."
Joe's eyes lit up a little, waiting for the words without blinking.
He saw DeVo Everth's lips move, and he said helplessly, "Why did I give birth to you such a fool?"
After speaking, Mr. Ewes left without looking back.
Joe: "..."
"Why are you in a daze?" When Gu Yan passed by him, he patted his shoulder, "He already told you that sentence."
"I know."
Joe said.
Of course he knew that what the old fox said meant that he had given him the most certain answer.
DeVo Ewes had already stood at the door of the office and opened the door with his fingerprints.
Qiao looked over there, and suddenly felt that he was standing again more than 20 years ago, standing at the starting point of all misunderstandings, and after a flash of time, he said, "...Dad, I'm sorry."
DeVo Ewes paused the hand that pushed the door, and looked back.
"I'm sorry," Joe said.
This is probably the most obvious moment of the old fox's emotional expression. He seems to want to say something.But in the end, he just looked away, invited Gu Yan and Yan Suizhi into the office, then held the door, and calmly said to Qiao: "I just plan to talk to these two young children, no matter how many times you call dad, I won't change my mind." .”
After speaking, he closed the door expressionlessly.
Joe: "..."
A few minutes later, the waiter arranged by the assistant knocked on the door of Eunice's suite with afternoon tea. At first glance, it seemed that there was a cup of coffee and a refreshment in hand, while Ke Jin's was a cup of mixed fresh fruit juice.
Joe took the glass handed over by the waiter, took a sip without warning, and then his whole face turned green.
He grinned and looked at his cup, "What the hell is this?!"
The waiter said politely, "Mixed bitter gourd and bitter celery, Mr. Eves."
The waiter had no contact with Joe, and didn't know about Qiao's taboo on addressing him, so he subconsciously called him by his last name.
And Qiao was just stunned for a moment, and then continued to ask with a green face: "I am most afraid of these two things, what hatred do you have with me?"
Waiter: "It was your father who dialed the internal line just now, sir."
Joe: "???"
Eunice laughed out loud, crossing her arms and turning her face away.
Young Master Qiao looked blankly at the waiter, then at her, and couldn't help but say, "Did he remember what I'm most afraid of eating, just waiting for this day?"
As he spoke, he turned to Ke Jin for help, wanting to borrow his juice to take a sip.
In the end, Ke Jin just glanced at him slowly.He probably thought that Joe was urging him not to leave a glass, so he held the glass and drank everything without leaving him a drop.
Joe: "..."
Both Eunice and Laura collapsed on the sofa laughing.
In the eyes of the outside world, this should be the worst day for the Evers family.
But in fact, they are actually in a good mood.
Maybe better than ever.
……
Inside DeVo Everth's office.
The rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee lingered, Ewes picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip, and said to Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan: "It's really frustrating to have such a stupid son, but luckily he is lucky to make friends. "
"Thank you." Gu Yan said.
"But I'm still very curious—" Ewes still didn't immediately take out what he knew, but looked at the two young people in front of him with some playfulness, and asked, "Why do you think I want to keep you?"
"Because of what you said and did." Yan Suizhi put his elbows on the armrest, holding the coffee cup in a relaxed manner.
"Really? Which sentence?"
"You know what we have found, and you have all the information we have, but this time the Manson family entered the medical field with such an attitude, but you didn't care, which shows that you have a lot of things in your hands." Yan Sui Zhi smiled, and said: "These information must not have been obtained overnight, but you have done very little real action over the years. I think... it is not just waiting for a good time."
Devore Ewes looked at the heat of the coffee cup and blew two puffs, "It's very interesting, so what am I waiting for?"
"Key evidence." Yan Suizhi added, "Of course, I'm a Fa-study, so my thinking may be somewhat limited."
"It's still very interesting, so how do you think this key evidence should be found?" DeVo Evers asked again.
"At present, you think that the key evidence is on me." Yan Suizhi said with a smile, "So, I stayed with you."
Devore Ewes finally raised his eyes, stared at Yan Suizhi's face for a long time, and said, "Actually, if you look carefully, there are still shadows of two old friends in your facial features...Of course, maybe it's me The psychological effect, after all, you should have done more than one genetic modification."
He turned his head to look at Gu Yan, and stretched out his hand to compare to Yan Suizhi: "Why don't you introduce me again, Gu Yan."
Gu Yan glanced at Yan Suizhi, and said in a deep voice to Devo Eves: "The title of intern is indeed a bit abrupt, this is my teacher, the former dean of the Law School of Metz University, Yan Suizhi. "
Yan Suizhi raised his eyebrows and glanced at him.
In the past, he opened his mouth to say "intern" and shut his mouth to shout "intern" without changing his expression. Now he is becoming abrupt, and he doesn't know who is capable of telling nonsense.
"Yan Suizhi..." Devo Eway thought about the name again, and said, "I didn't follow your parents' surname."
"Followed by my grandmother who died young." Yan Suizhi said.
Devore Ewes gave a soft "ah" and shook his head again: "Those two friends really protected the family information too strictly, otherwise I might have known you earlier."
He seemed to be caught in some memories suddenly, he was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled lightly and said: "You may not know, I had a serious illness before, and my physical condition was not very good for many years. Your parents said that if one day I get old or in poor health and leave, and Eunice and Joe are not strong enough to bear the heavy burden, I hope your parents can take care of me. In the same way, if... ..."
Devore Ewes didn't finish what was said, but paused for a moment, and said, "But I'm ashamed, I didn't take care of it in time."
Yan Suizhi turned the coffee cup in his hand, thought for a while and said, "The one who told Mr. Mervyn Bai to save me...is that you?"
"Something," said Devon Evers.
"That's very timely." Yan Suizhi said, "After all, I am alive, and I am living very well."
DeVo Ewes cast his eyes on him and became deep again. After a while, he shook his head and laughed, "It's really a family. When I see those two friends in the future, I will definitely remember to tell them that their son grows up. Well done, it doesn't disappoint at all."
