Chapter 117: Diamond Ring in the Snow
On the first day of the first lunar month, a red sun poked its head out of the horizon, the golden sunlight sprinkled over the earth, and the snow-white world shone in the morning glow, and the new year was full of new hopes.
Liu Chen and Li Rongfei slept in the house he rented, and on the first day of the new year, he got up early and cooked a pot of dumplings for everyone, all of which were wrapped together last night, and they just needed to be warmed up. After breakfast, he picked up a broom to sweep the snow at the door, and the snow that had been floating all night, the ground had accumulated about twenty centimeters thick, and it was a little difficult to sweep it, so he changed it to a shovel to shovel the snow, and the speed was much faster, and when he shoveled to the gate of the yard, Liu Chen suddenly saw a dazzling light flashing in the snow, and bent down to take a look, and found that it was a diamond ring, which must have been lost last night. Thinking that the owner must be in a hurry, he quickly picked him up, and then his father stretched his waist and walked out of the house.
"What are you looking at?" Guan Shaoqing saw what Liu Chen was holding in his hand and stepped forward to ask.
"Oh, I picked up a diamond ring, I don't know who lost it. Liu Chen handed the diamond ring to his father.
Guan Shaoqing took the diamond ring and looked at it, isn't this his own? He touched the pocket on his body, and sure enough, the diamond ring in his pocket was gone.
"I lost this ring, hehe. Guan Shaoqing held the diamond ring in his palm and smiled a little embarrassedly.
Liu Chen suddenly understood, "This is for Aunt Lin." ”
Guan Shaoqing nodded and sighed: "She has been with me for so many years, and she has never given her any expensive gifts, nor has she any reputation, for so many years, she has been wronged." He looked very guilty and ashamed, a young and beautiful girl chose a poor man at her most beautiful age, this is how much courage it takes, Lin Huimei's kindness to him, he can't repay it in his life, only cherish this innocent love.
"What are you going to do?"
Guan Shaoqing pondered for a while and said solemnly: "I plan to choose a suitable time to propose to her and give her a name, and I can't let him be pointed at by outsiders anymore." ”
"Is she clear over there?" Liu Chen refers to Lin Huimei's home in Ningzhou County, the negative man who abandoned their mother and daughter, according to the law, the court will grant a divorce if the husband and wife have been separated for two years due to emotional discord, but they also need both parties to go through the divorce procedures, or divorce by agreement. Liu Chen was worried that the man was playing a scoundrel, although this possibility was very small.
"I once asked her, she said when she had time to go back to her hometown and go through the divorce procedures, but she was still afraid of that man, so she was also hesitating, she was afraid that she would never be able to come out again once she went back, and I planned to go with their mother and daughter at that time. Guan Shaoqing talked about this, his heart was also full of helplessness and unknown, he was not sure whether Lin Huimei's family would accept him, and he was also worried that they would never be able to come out again once they went back.
Liu Chen patted his father's shoulder and said with relief: "It's okay, call me when you go, I promise you will go smoothly." ”
With his son's promise, Guan Shaoqing was relieved a lot, he trusted his son very much and believed in his ability. Guan Shaoqing is a strong person, he has always been the pillar of the family, and he bears everything alone, but since Liu Chen came back, he has gradually become more dependent on this son, and many things need Liu Chen to call the shots, maybe at this time he realized that he was old.
Ah Cheng still contacted Liu Chen and expressed his willingness to follow Liu Chen's thoughts, just waiting for Liu Chen to nod. Liu Chen had not heard of Liang Shaoxi's order to hunt down Ah Cheng, but he also expected that once Ah Cheng was exposed, it would inevitably bring such an ending.
Ah Cheng was worried that if Liu Chen accepted him, it would be tantamount to declaring war directly on Liang Shaoxi, and Liu Chen would not necessarily take this risk.
But Liu Chen didn't think so, anyway, the conflict with Liang Shaoxi had intensified, so he didn't care about adding some more material, what he considered was whether Ah Cheng still had use value.
"You hide it first, I have time to negotiate with Liang Shaoxi and win you over, you don't need to work hard for me, you just need to do things for me, do you understand what I mean?" Liu Chen gave Ah Cheng a reassurance in advance.
Ah Cheng originally planned to test it, but he didn't expect Liu Chen to really agree, he also knew that Liu Chen was just using himself, but this was much better than the end of the world. Liu Chen's words are also very clear, do what you should do, don't use your brains when you don't do what you shouldn't. After half his life, he also knows how to play his role well.
"Okay, Brother Liu, then I'll wait for your news. Ah Cheng hung up the phone, stared at the phone for a long time, and then suddenly laughed out loud, he felt so ironic, he would take refuge in a person who took his men to teach him a lesson.
Liang Shaoxi returned to Jinshan Garden under the escort of the newly hired bodyguard, he was returning from the party, walking a little unsteadily, staggering to the door of the elevator to the door, touched the key for a long time before taking it out, unlocked the door and opened the door, went straight to the sofa to lie down, ready to sleep beautifully, suddenly a figure appeared in front of him, he thought it was a drunken eye, he didn't care, continued to squint and sleep.
In a half-dream, a puff of smoke came to his face, and Liang Shaoxi opened his eyes, only to see a face smoking a cigarette looking directly at him. Liang Shaoxi took a closer look, and it turned out to be Liu Chen, so frightened that he unconsciously stepped back, but he had nowhere to retreat on this small sofa.
"You...... What do you want to do?" asked Liang Shaoxi with a look of fear on his face.
Liu Chen stood up straight, glanced at the frightened Liang Shaoxi with contempt, and said, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you, I'll talk to you about something." ”
Liang Shaoxi calmed down a little, got up and sat on the sofa, put his hands on his knees, and asked suspiciously, "What are you talking about?"
Liu Chen sat down opposite him and said slowly, "I heard that you gave a hunt and kill order to your old subordinate Ah Cheng?"
"He betrayed me, and this is the result he deserves. Liang Shaoxi said angrily.
Liu Chen didn't care so much, and directly stated his meaning: "I want this person, I hope you will raise your noble hand and let him go." ”
"Aren't you afraid of ending up like me?"
"I don't have to worry about it, I'll learn your lesson. Liu Chen's words meaningfully satirized Liang Shaoxi's failed employment methods, and also pricked Liang Shaoxi's sensitive nerves.
"What if I don't agree?"
"There are no ifs. Liu Chen replied forcefully: "I'm not here to ask for your consent, but to remind you that I will not sit idly by if you want to hunt down the people who want to kill me." ”
Liang Shaoxi hung his head gloomily, Liu Chen's tough attitude made it clear that he would not give a chance to negotiate. As his personal bodyguard, Ah Cheng is naturally outstanding, and he can't be used by me, nor can he join his opponent's camp, which is also very taboo in the business field. But if he doesn't agree today, who knows if he will do it to himself.
Liang Shaoxi felt extremely desperate, Liu Chen is really his nemesis, since his appearance, he has not done anything well.
"Okay, I promise you to withdraw the order to hunt him down, but I have one condition......"
"You are not qualified to negotiate conditions!" Liu Chen was very dissatisfied with Liang Shaoxi's performance, and said angrily.
"Okay, okay, I don't talk about conditions. Liang Shaoxi lowered his head in frustration, very unwilling but helpless.
Liu Chen smiled proudly: "This is what you should be." After speaking, he got up and left Liang Shaoxi's house.
As soon as Liu Chen left, Liang Shaoxi finally couldn't help but erupt, he picked up the cup on the table and threw it to the ground, and the porcelain teacup was suddenly shattered.
"Liu Chen, what I lost must be recovered one by one!"
Liu Chen told Ah Cheng the news that Liang Shaoxi had withdrawn the order to pursue him, and told him that he would only be responsible for his future actions.
Ah Cheng was extremely excited to learn the news, and proposed to meet with Liu Chen, wanting to show his loyalty to him in person, but Liu Chen refused: "There is no need for this kind of formal thing, you can start again openly in Jiangxia City in the future, you can do whatever you want, I will not interfere with your freedom, as long as you can listen to my orders when necessary." Also, if there's anything you need help with, just come to me. ”
When Ah Cheng heard this, he was speechless for a while, the mourning dog in the eyes of others was able to be treated well by a character like Liu Chen, which made him moved and ashamed.
"Brother Liu, as long as I can use my place in the future, I will definitely go to the soup and fight the fire. Ah Cheng said solemnly.
The reason why Liu Chen treats Ah Cheng like this is because he feels that as Liang Shaoxi's accomplice, he is not bad in nature, just to make a living, if he can have a safe and stable job, he will naturally not do those bad things again. Of course, Liu Chen is not completely noble for maintaining social stability, he also has selfish intentions, Ah Cheng has followed Liang Shaoxi for nearly ten years, and is very familiar with Liang Shaoxi and Spring Entertainment, and using him to help him deal with Liang Shaoxi will save him a lot of worry.
During the Spring Festival, most people are busy visiting relatives for the New Year, but Guan Shaoqing's family doesn't have so much to do, and after being busy with things in Dongyi Village, he and Lin Huimei decided to start moving, and it just so happened that the snow on the ground had almost melted, and it would not be so difficult to move.
Liu Chen and Li Rongfei were on standby at any time, and after learning of the second elder's wishes, they immediately contacted the moving company to come and move. In order to maintain the original appearance and keep it as a thought, there was no big move, only some daily necessities were moved.
There are red ribbons hanging on the gate of Penghu Bay Community, and there are many Chinese knots connected to the ribbons, and there is a big banner to congratulate the owners on a happy New Year. Walking into the community, the fences, street lights, tree branches and other objects that can be tied to the rope are tied with red ropes, and you can feel a strong festive atmosphere everywhere.
