Dark sugar is hard to prevent

Chapter 561 Los Angeles New Year
560
It was only then that Tang Xi'en realized that her presence seemed to put another pressure on him, and he had to be distracted to consider her state and feelings.

She calmed down for a moment, then turned around and put her arms around his waist: "Of course I have to go back, and I'll go back after a week, okay?"

The next week is crucial, whether or not Fu Zhengye can be brought out depends on this week.It is impossible for her to return to China at this juncture.Fearing that Fu Shiyu would not agree, she took a step back: "At least wait until I see your father before leaving."

"Okay, we'll go back when we see him."
.
The two of them went back to the hotel and put up the blessing stickers. Tang Xien came out after taking a shower. There was no one in the room, and the living room was still lit.

Fu Shiyu was buried in a pile of documents, his tie was undone, the top two buttons of his shirt were opened, and the necklace engraved with Tang Xi'en's name shone slightly under the light.

She walked over, leaned her back against the edge of the desk, faced him, and looked down at him.

He put down his pen, stretched his neck, leaned back against the office chair, held her slender wrist with his big hand, and smiled at her.

"Go to bed early tonight?" she asked.

He glanced at the documents on the table and shook his head: "Go to bed first, and I'll take care of things."

She refused, and said coquettishly: "Tonight is New Year's Eve, won't you watch the New Year with us?"

She said "we", when he heard it, his heart felt warm, and he quickly turned off the lamp on the table, got up, and hugged her by the waist.

She put her arms around his neck and looked up at him.

They have been together for so many years, and they watch the New Year together every New Year's Eve. He said that it should be like this every year.But today, he was so stressed that he had just sat around the fire at night, and when he came back here, he forgot that tonight was New Year's Eve.

He put her under the covers and turned to take a shower.After washing, she came out, went back to bed and hugged her, and watched the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala in China together.

The two of them chatted one after another, at first they both refrained from talking about things related to Fu Zhengye's case, but Tang Xi'en suddenly remembered what he wanted to ask him when he came out of the law firm today, afraid that he would forget it if he didn't ask it now. Unable to hold back, he asked, "Why did you drop the payment by [-] percent this afternoon?"

"It's a strategy to force them to make a trade-off. When we know that the lawsuit will undoubtedly lose, we will give some concessions, and they will happily accept it."

"But they originally decided not to pay a dime."

"That's why my dad didn't catch them."

Tang Xien thought of today's negotiation, Fu Shiyu's two trump cards, and immediately became interested.

"By the way, where did you get the other party's contract with another drilling company? And that witness, you can know that he was not injured on Fu's drilling rig just by looking at the case?" She was so impressed Fu Shiyu said, "If it were me, I might not be able to find such a subtle place after studying the case over and over again!"

Fu Shiyu smiled: "When I was working on a project before, there were occasional accidents when workers went to work after drinking alcohol and fell on the construction site. In order to distinguish responsibility, the engineering party usually asked the hospital to test the alcohol concentration in the worker's body as soon as possible. "

"So you wanted to see if this man fell from the rig after drinking, but it turned out that he had seawater in his lungs?"

After hearing this, Fu Shiyu pinched her cheek: "Smart."

She smiled, put her arms around his waist, and rubbed against his arms: "You are not bad! But the premise is that you must be familiar with overseas Fu's business to know that Fu's drilling business is on land .”

Speaking of this, Fu Shiyu's eyes darkened a little, and he smiled thoughtfully: "I have been paying attention to the business of Fu's overseas, just in case something happened to my father."

Seeing that the topic was about to come back to Fu Zhengye, Tang Xien quickly stopped and asked, "What about the contracts of other drilling companies? How did you get them?"

She was a little concerned that the contracts were obtained illegally, and if that was the case, other problems might arise.

Fu Shiyu guessed her worry, smiled and circled her tightly, and comforted her: "You didn't see those contracts today, did you? There are authorization stamps on them, and there will be no legal disputes."

Tang Xien was surprised.

In other words, how many colleagues did Fu Shiyu persuade within 48 hours to be willing to give him the right to sample the contract?
She didn't know how he negotiated this kind of thing, it must be very difficult.

She couldn't bear to ask any more, hugged him, and quietly watched the Spring Festival Gala together.

Later, she fell asleep.Fu Shiyu seemed to go out again after she fell asleep, she felt it, but she woke up once in the middle of the night, he was holding her, sleeping peacefully with his breath.

……

January 1, the first day of the first lunar month in China, is the traditional Spring Festival.

This year's New Year comes very early, it hasn't been so early in many years.

This day coincided with the Sunday of country M, and Fu Zhengye's interrogation was scheduled for tomorrow.Therefore, Fu Shiyu and his wife were able to celebrate a traditional year on this day. Otherwise, they would have to travel around in court in a foreign country on the first day of the new year. This will definitely be a shadow of the new year for the future.

After Tang Xi'en woke up, he lay in Fu Shiyu's arms for a while.Fu Shiyu was asleep at first, but when she woke him up, he was rude.

Since Fu Zhengye's accident, he has been busy during the day and at night, which has not happened for many days. She was a little delighted to have such a sudden encounter this morning.

Gonggong was imprisoned. Although she was in such a bad mood, she always believed that Fu Shiyu was in good condition, and she would be happy. She couldn't be blamed for this, she was not a saint.

The two of them didn't get up until noon, took a shower, and prepared to go to Chinatown to join in the excitement of the Spring Festival.

On this day in Los Angeles, the weather happened to be very good. The sky was clear and the temperature was around 20 degrees. The body felt very comfortable. Tang Xi'en and Fu Shiyu were in a good mood.

She has been to Chinatown in Los Angeles twice, both at night, but today at noon, the Chinatown she saw was different from the previous two times.

The buildings here are antique, archways and red lanterns with traditional domestic characteristics can be seen everywhere, and almost every shop has eye-catching Chinese signs, as if walking into the streets of Hong Kong in Cantonese movies.The people they passed by spoke a variety of dialects, except for Cantonese, Tang Xien couldn't understand them at all.Even so, she still felt very cordial here.

There are various specialty shops, Chinese supermarkets, domestic gift shops, etc., but the most popular ones are Chinese restaurants: Cantonese cuisine, southern Fujian cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, Shanghai cuisine, Yunnan cuisine...

They ate Chaoshan hot pot last night. Fu Shiyu knew that Tang Xien likes spicy food, so he suggested Sichuan food, while Tang Xien strongly demanded mild Cantonese food, considering his stomach and hemorrhoids.

After lunch, Tang Xi'en said that he wanted to walk around more, so they started shopping in Chinatown.Tang Xi'en was very curious about everything, he looked here and there to buy and buy, and the afternoon passed quickly.

Both of them were in a good mood. After dinner, when they were returning to the hotel, Tang Xi'en suddenly received a call from China.

　There is one more update.
