Chapter 18 Chapter Eighteen: The Temptation of the Black Swan

In "Snow Neon", Chen'er sighed.During these days, Tianchi was busy with marriage matters, and the company's affairs were mostly entrusted to her to be in charge. Although she could barely do the job, she always felt that the work was half the effort and powerless. people." Tianchi comforted: "It's because the market is more competitive than before. Take your time. It's up to people to plan things, and it's up to God to make things happen. Just do your best." "But what if you don't get rewarded for your hard work?" Tianchi replied: "If you try ten times, you will get one reward; if you try ten times, you will get one reward. It is worth the investment and the income and expenditure are balanced."

Chen'er sighed: "It's really frustrating, isn't it?" "But the real meaning of life is nothing more than that." So everyone uses one as two, but the energy expended is received as two as one.It's the bitter summer, and "Snow Neon" looks like an enemy, and everyone is sweating profusely. At this busy time, Gao Luoyi suddenly asked her secretary to make an appointment with Tianchi on her behalf again, to discuss asking her to return to "Caishi" to preside over the overall situation. It turned out that Xu Jiuyang had a showdown with his wife and divorced because of Accountant Jin.Mrs. Xu was so furious that she did not stop doing anything, and even made a big fuss about "Caishi", and told Hua Yun in person that Xu Jiuyang said that she had cooperated with Accountant Jin and was short of tens of thousands of public funds.

Shocked, Hua Yun led people to check the accounts again, and it turned out that a large amount of bad debts was found, about hundreds of thousands. Immediately, he followed up with Xu Jiuyang and hired Tianchi to reinstate him.Anyway, Tianchi has decided to get married, so Huajun no longer regards her as an enemy, but said kindly: "Actually, I have always admired you. Although you are smart, you are still very simple, honest, and have clear love and hate. This kind of person We can work together for a long time.” A teacher for a day, a father for life.Tianchi instinctively still cares about "Color TV": "Is the company's loss big?"

Gao Luoyi said with a smile: "With Huajun here, why worry about Fatty Xu? He is too far behind! This guy is really bold, he has the ability to pay 12,000 yuan for the job of printing for 9,000 yuan Go to print, collude with the printing factory to deceive me, and say that the printing factory has to re-revise the wrong plate. The price of repairing a plate is higher than remaking? If he is not too blatant this time, he is as small as before. I really don’t care about him if I earn two or three thousand for ten thousand miles, or two or three hundred for one thousand miles. But he sees that I don’t check the accounts, and I have the guts to play like this when I’m fat. Okay, you I am worse than you, Hua Yun suddenly came back to check the accounts, found out the accountant of the printing factory, found out all the black accounts of Fatty Xu in the past, and gave him an order to take them out within 24 hours. One hundred thousand yuan, or he will be sent to the court immediately. His kid obediently took out one hundred thousand yuan, and he didn't even dare to say a word." He said very proudly.

Tianchi was amused, being kept in the dark for so long is already incompetent enough, what else is there to brag about?Xu Jiuyang's corruption is something everyone knows, but the boss favors him even more. The boss's wife even made a fortune with him in Tianchi, so she doesn't feel ashamed?Besides, since Xu Jiuyang was able to give out 100,000 yuan without hesitation today, it is natural that not only 200,000 yuan will be swallowed up by "Color TV".The victim is still complacent here.Thinking about Huayun's reliance on Xu Jiuyang at the beginning, it was really called "companion to the king is like companion to the tiger", "this moment and that moment".

However, it has never been Tianchi's style to beat a dog in the water. At the moment, she just smiled and said bluntly: "CTV will have a better future after reorganization. It's rare that the chairman and Ms. Hua value it. , I will do my best." He kept silent and did not mention the company. Hua Yun saw that she was determined and didn't force her, so she smiled and said, "You are now a major customer of our 'CTV', if you need help, just ask." After a few more greetings, he sent her out. Back at Xue Nihong, Tianchi sighed to Chen'er: "It takes a long time to see people's hearts, but no matter the individual or the company, there is still a price to be paid for recognizing a person and everything."

Chen'er said solemnly: "This is called evil does not suppress good. Now you are not only recognized in terms of work ability, but also established a reputation in terms of personality and morality. This is what you are most proud of." Liang Zhu Xiaosu was very excited: "This is really good news that pleases people's hearts. The old beauty listens to one side and believes in another. This is a lesson. Let's see if they still dare to be self-righteous in the future?" Just as he was talking, the phone rang. It was Chen Kai from "Avant-Garde Advertising", with a slightly sour tone: "Miss Ji, I heard that you are going to be a bride, congratulations!"

Tianchi laughed together: "Yes, what gift does Qianwei have?" "What kind of gift do you want?" Tianchi laughed: "A plate-making order for an 80P color picture album is fine." "And what about the graphic production of all the color business for this fashion festival?" "What?" The calm and calm person like Tianchi couldn't help but whispered. "The Organizing Committee of the Fashion Festival has decided: All brochures, conference catalogs, tickets, VIP cards, and colorful packaging boxes will be printed and designed by me in an 'avant-garde' way. Who do you think I will entrust the plate making to?"

"Of course it's 'Snow Neon'!" Tianchi called out, "Chen Kai, you are so great, thank you!" Putting down the phone, he hastily reported the good news to his subordinates, "All business is suspended this month, and we will go all out to attack the clothing festival!" "Wow!" All the employees cheered together. "Long live the Costume Festival! Long live the Snow Neon!" Chen'er and Tianchi were also very excited, they hugged each other tightly, and said sincerely: "This is the real double happiness!" It is not only a huge amount of business to take over all the color plate-making of the fashion festival, but also means that the name of "Snow Neon" will reverberate in Dalian from now on, becoming a unique and famous brand in the plate-making industry!

The spring of "Snow Neon" has really arrived! The opening of the fashion festival is just around the corner, and "Snow Neon" worked together to complete the first draft of color printing and plate making in mid-August. Chen'er carried a large stack of design drafts to Xinghai Convention and Exhibition Center to sign for the fashion festival organizing committee. How can you be so beautiful?" Chen'er replied: "The most beautiful thing about 'Snow Neon' is not the employees, but our products." Those who eat public meals have dealt with the leaders of various factories all year round, and are used to rigid and serious dialogues. When they suddenly heard such a witty answer, they couldn't help but praise it.

Chen Kai took the opportunity to say: "Our 'avant-garde' design is not the leader in Dalian, but also the number one. There will never be any problems. The technology of 'Snow Neon' is meticulously crafted and seamless. Otherwise, why would I give up?" But those masters of plate making, why did they find a small private unit to cooperate with them?" Chen'er echoed: "The mountains are not high, but there are immortals. 'Snow Neon' can stand out in the Dalian market by starting from scratch. The service quality must be several times higher than other companies." The members of the organizing committee couldn't stop nodding, and the atmosphere of the discussion was very relaxed.The color inkjet samples were spread out one by one, and only a few details were corrected, and it was easy to pass. Chen'er and Chen Kai came out and congratulated each other with hands in hand. "congratulations!" "Same joy, same joy!" Chen'er smiled: "People who don't know see it and think that one of us is going to have a wedding." Chen Kai touched something on his mind: "That is, has the day of Tianchi's great joy been fixed? What kind of person is the other party?" "Perfect. Handsome, unrestrained, infatuated, single-minded, romantic, careful, gentle, funny..." "Hey, hey, what about his fiancé, why is he so intoxicated? If you yearn so much, why don't you ask Tianchi to let him go to you." "No. I've lived with him for more than twenty years, and I'm tired of it." Chen Kai was shocked: "You and him..." Chen'er smiled and said: "Tianchi's fiancé is my brother. From now on, Tianchi will be my sister-in-law to the letter. As a sister-in-law, I must have a pair of eyes to keep my brother's eyes on my sister-in-law, lest there will be troubles." A libertine will never die." Chen Kai was embarrassed: "You..." Chen'er patted him on the shoulder, pretending to be old-fashioned: "Brother, from now on, if the famous flower has its owner, it's better to give up." Chen Kai has already had a wife and son, his family is complete and happy, and he has clear goals in life. He is the most normal person. For some reason, after seeing Tianchi, he can't let it go. It's just that he misses him a little bit. She also refused to admit it, but now she was pointed out by Chen'er, and she couldn't help but sigh: "Are all the girls today so exquisite? Why didn't I meet them before?" Chen'er comforted: "Back then, your wife was the most perfect in your eyes." "It's true, there seems to be a mystery in these words." "Then, let's enjoy it." Chen'er opened his mouth and smiled, his face was like spring dawn.Chen Kai couldn't help being startled again.However, Chen'er had already raised his hand, turned around and left, suddenly remembered that Lu Yue had mentioned yesterday that recently he had been taking pictures of models in the dance hall of the convention center, so he wanted to bend over and take a look at his brother's work. During these days, it seems that everyone in the Lu family is working for the clothing festival. Even the parents are busy looking at the latest clothing photos taken by Lu Yue every night. The three sets of dresses to be changed at the wedding are not as noble as their brothers and sisters. As soon as he walked to the entrance of the dance hall, he could already hear a burst of mesmerizing and melodious music faintly.Chen'er was not in a hurry to go in, and stood at the door admiring it for a while before gently pushing the door open, and was immediately shocked by the strange atmosphere in front of him. I saw a neon ceiling light in the middle of the hall shining brightly, spinning out a world of light and shadow.Under the lamp, there is a dancing figure. I don’t know if it’s the beam of light following the dance steps, or the dancing soul attached to the light. They are separated and merged at once, and they are completely dissolved in the melodious and sad music, and they can’t be separated again.The dancer is a young woman, wearing a black tight dance dress, her hair is tied up high, revealing a slender and white neck like a jade carving, like a black swan in a fairy tale dance drama. I remember watching "Swan Lake" when I was a child. Everyone felt sorry for what happened to the white swan. Chen'er even burst into tears, but her older brother Lu Yue had a different opinion: "The white swan is certainly the protagonist, but The black swan is the real temptation. The prince likes the white swan, but because he met her first, if it were changed, he met the black swan first, and the story must be different." So now, has Lu Yue met his late black swan?Chen'er looked at her brother, feeling uneasy. But Lu Yue didn't look at him, he didn't notice his sister's arrival at all, in his eyes, only the black tempting elf - her figure was exquisite and protruding, her dancing posture was graceful, her arms were soft and boneless, The legs are raised so high that they cannot be bent higher, the waist is bent so low that it cannot be bent any more, the limbs seem to be stretched and twisted at will, stretching out the lingering and charming like algae, dancing so bewitchingly so bewitching, like a black elf spinning in the lights and shadows, She wants to turn herself into a magic bottle and absorb people's souls with charm dance. And that "person" is himself.He was holding the camera, not knowing whether it was to capture the camera, or because he was bewitched, he walked closer to the center of the ballroom step by step. While turning on the spotlight frequently, his eyes became brighter and brighter. Then, his eyes were entangled with hers, just like light and shadow, lamp and dance, they fit together tightly and could not be separated. During the graceful dance, she is sometimes as quiet as a fairy in the moon palace, and sometimes as charming as a Tang Dynasty enchantress. She occasionally throws a erratic eye wave, always turning her eyes brightly when affection suddenly appears, but no matter where she turns, the aftermath still hangs firmly. live by yourself.The music gradually intensified, and amidst the sound of the drums, the elf's dancing posture also became vigorous and violent, and she was about to fly away.The light ball spins rapidly like a demon, sprinkled bright light chips all over the sky, reflecting all things in a confusing and confusing way, as if they were real or unreal. Chen'er felt palpitations, and Lu Yue's hesitant steps and puzzled eyes clearly showed danger and uncertainty.She wanted to call him to stop, but she didn't know what clamped her mouth, making her unable to speak or move, her heart beat faster and faster with the music, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. The whole world is spinning and the whole world is going crazy.Even the music and lighting suddenly had their own life because of the dancers, confusing and weird, exuding a compelling and bewildering atmosphere lively. Lu Yue was overwhelmed by the phantom of music, lighting and dancing. Unknowingly, he lowered his camera and walked into the center of the ballroom, while the dancers spun around him with their arms relaxed.The music slowed down again, and the dance of the elves was also gentle and lingering, approaching Lu Yue like this, stimulating his senses.Drenched in sweat, panting softly, rolling eyes, flicking fingertips, everything is alluring.Lu Yue stretched out her hand in a trance, and was caught by the dancer, and she held it firmly. Then, her whole body suddenly lost weight, and all her weight was tied to Lu Yue's body, tied to the clasped hands. Here, she held his hand and circled around his waist, circle after circle, as if she would fly away like smoke as soon as he let go.Lu Yue closed his eyes slightly, the spinning made him dizzy, dizzy, fascinated, and even more exciting.He couldn't help but exert a little force, and when he pulled her back, her whole body fell down, soft and smooth, and suddenly warm jade and warm fragrance hugged her arms, a soft and plump body was thrown into his arms, a moist and delicate The small mouth was already pressed against his own lips, Lu Yue couldn't help himself, embraced the beauty in his arms, and kissed deeply. The color-printed manuscript in Chen'er's hand fell to the ground. "Brother!" she cried out in shock, looking at her brother with frightened eyes, as if seeing a ghost. As if waking up from a dream, Lu Yue quickly let go of the female model's hand: "Chen'er, why are you here?" He introduced to the female model, "This is my sister, and this is the supermodel Leng Yanru. Take a picture of her." The expression of the voice was quite unnatural, and there were four words clearly written on the face: trying to cover up. Chen'er looked at her elder brother hurt, with sadness in her eyes, and asked in a low voice: "How can you be worthy of Tianchi?" Lu Yue was stunned for a moment, unable to continue acting, he only murmured: "Chen'er, listen to my explanation." "No." Chen'er retreated instinctively, she didn't believe what she saw, she was heartbroken for her brother, she was worthless as a friend, how could this happen?There have been too many betrayals and infidelities in the world, but at least my brother and Tianchi should be different. Why, it also ended like this?Turning around, she rushed out of the dance hall as if fleeing. Leaving Lu Yue standing there blankly, he didn't know why he became so weak and dazed at this moment.Leng Yanru came over, put his hand into his arm, and asked lightly: "Is it your sister? Why is the reaction (reaction) so strong? It seems to see her husband being unfaithful." Lu Yue replied blankly: "Because, I will be her best friend's husband, and she is hurting for her friend." "Can a friendship between women be so strong?" Lu Yue looked at her: "Don't you have friends of the same sex?" "Yes, the kind that grabs boyfriends while drinking, eating, and shopping. But the closest ones are all boy friends." "How many boyfriends like that are there?" "Without number (innumerable)." Leng Yan is like taking off the silk scarf that binds her hair, and her long hair is flowing like water. When she flicks it casually, there are thousands of styles. She puts him on his arm and smiles seductively, "If you Promise to be my boyfriend, then during this period, you will be my only one (only).” "But I'm going to be someone else's bridegroom." "Haven't you heard that indulgence before marriage is the most fan (exciting)?" Lu Yue was not a good man and a believer, so he couldn't resist such a temptation. He hugged her, continued with the homework just now, and kissed her deeply again. When Lu Yue returned home, he found his sister waiting for him in his room with a cold face and disgust in her eyes. He sighed, knowing that a war was inevitable. "Chen'er, listen to my explanation." "Why didn't you explain to Tianchi?" "Have you told Tianchi?" "Not yet, I don't want to hurt her." Lu Yue breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as you don't tell her, no one will be hurt." "Are you going to lie to her?" "It's not cheating. We're still going to have our wedding on September 9, nothing has changed." "But I clearly saw you and that woman..." "What is that woman? She has a name and surname, her name is Leng Yanru, and she is a world famous model." "How long have you known each other?" "It should be said that we have known each other for a long time. As early as two years ago, I had been dealing with her agent and wanted to ask her to shoot a set of films, but we didn't really meet until she came to Dalian this summer. to a week." Lu Yue sat down and lit a cigarette.Ever since he met Leng Yanru in the disco ballroom that day, he has been obsessed with it, and tried his best to contact her. He thought she was so famous and she must have a lot of airs, but when they met, she seemed to have a lot of affection for him. I liked him so much that I agreed to be a model for him, and said that anyway, I need a set of promotional photos, so it's better to get what I need, without mentioning the price at all.Such an adventure is good news for all photographers, and Lu Yue has no reason not to be moved.What's more, the day when I met Leng Yanru happened to be the third day after I discovered the Tianchi diary, which was the lowest point of my emotions. Having such a beauty in my arms was undoubtedly a cool elixir for the hot summer. It wasn't Liu Xiahui, and it wasn't Guan Yunchang, whoever came naturally would not refuse, and hit it off immediately.But facing his younger sister, he couldn't say these words, he could only pretend to be chic and cynical. "Don't worry, Leng Yanru and I are just acting on the spot, and it won't affect the overall situation. It's just a pre-broadcast of the advertisement before the main film is released, or it's the dessert before the big meal." "Tianchi is the big dish?" "Yes, marrying a wife and virtue, she is undoubtedly the best wife." Chen'er took a breath of air: "Brother, when did you become so shameless?" Lu Yue looked at his younger sister, and suddenly broke down at this moment, and revealed the truth: "The moment Tianchi decided to marry me." "What?" Chen'er was stunned.Just yesterday, she went to the new house with Tianchi to see the renovation process.Already installing the chandelier, Chen'er has never seen so many lights in one room, wall lamps, hanging lamps, pendant lamps, ceiling lamps, standing lamps, table lamps, sitting lamps... It is dazzling.Tianchi smiled: "Lu Yue said that he would use lights to drive away my 20 years of loneliness, so that there would be him and me under every light." The infinite happiness and joy in the smile made Chen'er feel numb.But now she knew that Tianchi lived in deception, and the person who deceived her was her own brother.She couldn't help asking again: "How can you be worthy of Tianchi?" Lu Yue suddenly became angry: "Why don't you ask, how can she be worthy of me? You are a girl, and you are good friends with Tianchi, so of course you talk to her. But can you think about it for me and feel my feelings ?” "How can you be in the mood? You have been chasing Tianchi for so long, and now that your wish has come true, you have to wake up laughing while sleeping in bed. What else is there to be dissatisfied with?" "Yes, I have indeed pursued her for many years. But it was not until the moment she agreed to marry me that I realized that my love is irrational at all." Lu Yue hugged his head, the confusion and bitterness on his face was indeed not Camouflaged. "You also know that I fell in love with Tianchi because I was moved by her story. Her infatuation with Wu Zhou, a kind of pure and persistent love that has been out of print in this era, makes me feel that she is not in this world. A real person actually exists, but an ideal, which makes me want to worship her. I took this feeling as love and pursued her crazily. But when she finally promised to marry me, I suddenly hesitated. Her greatest advantage is her infatuation, but that is not my infatuation. Can I marry a woman who only has other men in her heart? " "You're talking nonsense! You insulted Tianchi!" Chen'er burst into tears, and interrupted her brother angrily, "It's clear that you have changed your mind, but you want to slander Tianchi. You know that person in Tianchi, as long as you decide to marry you, it's all your own. Live with you, she will be the best wife, even my parents think so." "Yes, I don't deny that Tianchi will be a good wife, so I still plan to marry her." Lu Yue said wearily, "But since the person she loves the most is not me, I don't need to be 100% loyal to her." "How do you know that the person she loves the most is not you? Wu Zhou's story is over." Lu Yue smiled bitterly: "Lovely little sister, do you really believe that Wu Zhou's story is over? Just like an eraser, can it be wiped clean without leaving any traces? She loves Wu Zhou After more than ten years, do you really think that after she marries me, she will completely gouge out that feeling?" Chen'er was stunned.Can?Can Tianchi do it?Had she been doubting herself?At this moment, she suddenly understood what her brother was thinking.People always work hard for what they can't get, chasing after it, but once they get it, they often wake up like a dream and begin to doubt the value they pursued. Lu Yue groaned softly: "Studying tears and poems, no one will sweep away my broken heart. Walking alone, rainy nights and clear dawns, I will never have a chance from now on." He took out a stack of manuscripts and handed them to his sister, and said discouragedly: "You ask me why I changed my mind. You are so shameless, don’t you have to know the reason? Then, you read these things. Then think for me, whether a person who is going to be a groom can still be calm and calm after seeing these things. " Chen'er was surprised, took the manuscript, flipped through it, and his face changed color: "Where did you get these?" "In Tianchi's desk drawer, I found it by accident during the renovation of the house, the renovation of the house, the new house, our new house. Hahaha!" Lu Yue suddenly laughed wildly, and burst into tears, "Chen'er, good sister, tell me, I'm going to be a groom soon, but after seeing all this, how can I be a groom with peace of mind? Do you still think I should sleep under the covers and laugh out loud?" Lu Yue started laughing again, laughing so much that Chen'er became frightened, and couldn't help shouting: "Brother, don't laugh!" Lu Yue stopped laughing, but sighed deeply, and said wearily: "My heart is very sad. Chaos, or, this is what people often call premarital stress syndrome, right? When I was chasing Tianchi before, no matter how discouraged I was, I still felt hopeful. But now that I have finally caught up, I feel more discouraged than ever before. No prospects. I’m already annoying enough, so just let me go? Anyway, Leng Yanru is not your brother’s first woman, so why make such a fuss? You should thank her for soothing your brother’s wounded heart. My old heart, she made me feel balanced, so I can still sit here and talk to you calmly, otherwise, maybe I would have been sent to the madhouse. Don’t force me anymore, okay?” Sighed again Sighing, Lu Yue suddenly said a very philosophical sentence: "Failure is nothing but disappointment, but victory is often despairing." Chen'er stared blankly at her brother, who was about to get married, but her brother's face was not happy. "Failure is nothing but disappointment, but victory often makes people despair." Is marriage such a cruel thing?
