Chapter 122: Either Adultery or Theft
The old turnip-headed actually knew Norman Lamont, which was very surprising news to Shen Jiannan, before that, the old turnip-headed guy had never said that he knew the British Chancellor of the Exchequer.
Shen Jiannan's eyebrows couldn't help but raise, Robert John knows a lot of things, if he really knows the British Chancellor of the Exchequer, this is not good news. But he soon relented, and even if Old Carrot did know Norman Lamont, the relationship between the two would never be good.
Otherwise, how could this guy stay in Shencheng all the time, praying every day that God would let him leave.
Now, it's up to this guy to confess.
Meanwhile.
In a café in the financial district, a man in his fifties sits opposite Robert John.
The man's face was full of excitement and excitement, and his eyes sparkled with brilliance, as if he had met an old friend who had not seen him for many years.
As for the old turnip, the expression on his face is relatively lacking, with a dead face, raised eyebrows, eyelids up, and looking at the Patek Philippe watch in his hand from time to time, without the slightest attitude of a gentleman meeting an old friend, just like to an insurance salesman, full of impatience and disgust.
Because, it's true that the two haven't seen each other for many years, but friends are not counted at all, and some small grievances don't know how much they have accumulated.
Mason Rowan, like Robert John, was Norman Lamont's younger brother in middle school, but unlike Old Carrot Head, Mason Rowan, who was relatively wealthy, has been following Norman Lamont from middle school to the present.
After more than 30 years, after Norman Lamont was hired by John Major as Chancellor of the Exchequer, his younger brother, who had been with Lamont for many years, naturally followed him and was successfully hired by the Ministry of Finance as a special financial adviser.
Is that okay too?
How can there be nepotism in Great Britain's clean government and electoral system.
The above statement is pure nonsense.
The government bureaucracy of Great Britain is itself a network of relationships, just like the relationship between John Major and Hong Kong Governor Chris Patten, the reason why the latter can still serve as Governor of Hong Kong after losing his position in the House of Commons is completely because of John Major's full support behind him, and Major's ability to become Prime Minister is also the operation of Crest Chris during the election.
Even Margaret Thatcher's forced resignation took a lot of effort.
As for a special adviser to a district finance department, it is even more of a piece of cake.
"Robert, remember, we were riding our bikes together down the Thames to Grace, and when we got to the road, my bike broke down, and you helped me fix it. ”
Remember?
How could Lao Tzu not remember!
Looking at his fellow classmate Mason Rowan on the street, Robert John had an undisguised look of mockery on his face.
"Then, the Lamont guy took half of the screws off my bike tire, and you watched and made me end up in a ditch. ”
“......”
The smile on Mason Rowan couldn't help but froze.
At Lamont's orders, he thought hard for a long time about how to contact Robert John so as not to be abrupt, and at the suggestion of his colleagues, he finally settled on a routine of encountering old acquaintances to increase his feelings.
But who knows, Robert John can't say anything, as soon as he opens his mouth, he just talks to death, so that he doesn't know how to continue.
What's even worse is that this guy has a dead face, and his nostrils are facing the sky, almost like he is looking at a pile of guano.
Damn it.
If it weren't for his duty, Rowan would have quietly pushed Robert John into the pit as he had done back then.
But no, the cabinet takes this matter very seriously, if Lamont can't figure it out, I'm afraid he will be fired immediately, then he, the adviser, can only be fired and squid.
Helplessly laughing to hide his embarrassment and grievances, Rowan had to try to change the topic.
"Do you remember when we played basketball together at school? You hit a three-pointer in a jump, and I won't forget it to this day?"
"Why don't I remember what you said? I remember one time we were playing football, and the bastard Lamont kicked the window of Mr. Gossman's house to pieces, and you lied with your eyes open and said that I did it, and I was chased and beaten up by Mr. Gossman. ”
“......”
Robert John was like a thorny hedgehog that almost froze the smile on Mason Rowan's face, and no matter what he said about a happy topic, Robert John immediately poured cold water on it. Little Snail Chinese Network
How did this bastard survive until now?
Didn't starve to death?
Hell, how could a company like Capital One hire such idiots.
Mason Rowan was so angry that he just wanted to scold his mother, but he couldn't understand how a guy like Old Carrot Head could hold an important position in a company like Capital One.
It was impossible to talk about the past, but the situation was stronger than people, and Mason Rowan had to show a ashamed expression.
"John. I'm really sorry, I didn't expect you to be hurt so much by your unintentional actions when you were young, I hope you can forgive me!"
With such a solemn apology, what can the old radish head say, not to mention, it is already some things that are young, and he has already let go.
"Rowan, I accept your apology. It's all gone, it's my bad attitude just now. ”
"I can understand, but I really didn't expect that those things would hurt you so much. ”
"It's all in the past. We were all kids, and I knew you didn't have any ill intentions. ”
"Thank you for your understanding. How have you been doing all these years? I've asked a lot of people about you, but they haven't heard about you. ”
“......”
“......”
"Robert, I sympathize with what you have suffered, and if I had known at the time, I would have taken a bad breath for you. ”
"Oh. It's all gone and I'm very happy now. I'm getting married to Lucy next month, and I hope you'll be able to attend. ”
“......”
Nima, scum.
Mason Rowan scolded in his heart, almost suffocated by the old radish head's three views, but his face showed the most eager smile.
"Oh, that's great, then I wish you a happy wedding in advance!"
"Thank you!"
"Robert, what you see, we've called all our former classmates for a party. ”
"Oh, that's a good note, I wonder how they're doing now. ”
“......”
“......”
"So, what do you think of the meeting tonight at the Calomme Hotel?"
“......”
Soon after, Mason Rowan left excitedly.
Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.
In the whole fifteen years in China, John Robb did not learn a lot, but he learned a lot of allusions.
Middle school classmates who haven't seen each other for decades suddenly meet on the street, and they recognize themselves at a glance, and they don't talk enthusiastically, how do you look at it.
Looking at Mason Rowan's back in the distance, the old radish head sneered and picked up the phone on the table.
"Boss. Today I met a classmate from a long time ago on the street, and I felt that something was wrong. ”
"What's wrong?"
"Oh my God. I had been away from the UK for a full fifteen years, and the guy was my former high school classmate, and we didn't have a very good relationship. ”
“......”
