Chapter 46: Zhuang Yuan
Shu Xin met Zhuang Yuan the day after accepting the task, and he was still the same clothes that Shu Xin had seen during the interview, so it is not surprising to think about the old community where he lives. His failure caused her father to commit suicide in prison, and more than ten years have passed, and he doesn't know whether he is poor or sour to pay off his debts or to atone for his sins.
Zhuang Yuan walked up to Shu Xin and Darren and politely stretched out his hand, "Mr. Darren, Miss Shu, hello." ”
Darren knew the knot between Shu Xin and Zhuang Yuan, and then looked at the cold air emanating from Shu Xin's body, in order not to be cold, Darren shook hands with Zhuang Yuan very facelessly.
At this time, Zhuang Yuan already knew that Shu Xin was Shu Jinchen's daughter, and when he saw Shu Xin's face full of ice, he also knew that Shu Xin must have a grudge against the past, and it was true that Shu Jinchen was imprisoned to help him, but he couldn't understand why Shu Jinchen committed suicide in prison, how could he, such a cheerful and smiling person, choose such a path of no return, so that they who are still alive in the world are tortured by their hearts.
However, Shu Xin quickly recovered, shook hands with Zhuang Yuan with a smile and said, "Uncle Zhuang, I haven't seen you for a long time, you can't recognize me." ”
Zhuang Yuan listened to Shu Xin's cheerful voice and put down the mustard, and said with a loving smile: "Shu Xin has grown up, I really can't recognize it, you look as beautiful as your mother." ”
Shu Xin immediately pretended to be angry and pouted, "Am I prettier than her?"
"It's really unashamed, and you are embarrassed to compare yourself with Aunt Chu. ”
Hearing that Zhuang Yuan was coming, Tang Zizhao also went downstairs to take a look.
"Tang Zizhao, you have a poisonous tongue for 10,000 years. ”
The confrontation between Shu Xin and Tang Zizhao amused everyone, Zhuang Yuan said with a smile: "You have all grown up, Zizhao can be on his own, I am old, you just watch it, I'm afraid I can't keep up with your young people's train of thought." ”
"Where, Uncle Zhuang, you are the immortal sword. ”
Tang Zizhao listened to Shu Xin's sycophancy, and suddenly felt a chill in her heart, she had this attitude towards Tang Yinzhong, that was her treating him as an enemy, and now she was the same for Zhuang Yuan, "Shu Xin, how many people are you going to attack", Tang Zizhao stared at Shu Xin and asked in his heart.
Darren then took Zhuang Yuan around the exhibition area, Shu Xin followed behind and listened to the two of them talking about the exhibition arrangement, and had to admire Darren, "This guy is really omnipotent, why didn't I find out that he had so many talents before." ”
Shu Xin sneered behind him, Darren turned around and winked at her at the right time, and then turned back and continued: "We are going to invite the products of a few more surrounding companies to make a small science and technology exhibition, which can attract the interest of many science and technology fans, after all, of course, I want to be worth the money when I go out once, as for how many companies are willing to make wedding clothes for you, it depends on our ability to do so." ”
"Shu Xin, is this what Mr. Darren means or do you mean?"
Darren really didn't know how to express some words in Chinese and replaced them with English, so Shu Xin translated them to Zhuang Yuan.
"Almost, I just used a few more idioms to describe it vividly. ”
Shu Xin's naughty appearance made Zhuang Yuan laugh, "You, you are really the same as Shu this morning, and you have not been in shape all day." ”
Shu Xin immediately put away her smile and looked at Zhuang Yuan with some surprise, watching him mention her father so naturally and intimately. Zhuang Yuan saw Shu Xin's expression become serious, and he also knew that he had said something that he shouldn't have said, so he coughed lightly and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned him." ”
Shu Xin shook his head slightly, "No, I'm glad that someone can still remember him, if he is really forgotten, it will be pitiful." ”
Zhuang Yuan approached her, stretched out his hand and gently hugged her in his arms and said, "Child, it's hard work, you can treat me as a father in the future, and I will love you as much as I did this morning." ”
Shu Xin was motionless in his arms, her heart throbbed and hurt, how could these two people who hurt her father be so naturally good to her, why should they replace her father.
Shu Xin resisted the urge to push him away, gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhuang." ”
Zhuang Yuan let go of her, looking at her red eyes, his heart also hurt, this child's misfortune was caused by him, no matter how good he and Tang Yinzhong were to her, they couldn't replace her biological father Shu Jinchen after all.
Darren saw Shu Xin's clenched fists when he was hugged by Zhuang Yuan, and he sweated, and when he saw that Shu Xin could bear it, he relaxed a little, walked to her side, patted her shoulder, and said, "It's almost noon, let's eat together." ”
Zhuang Yuan looked at Shu Xin and said, "Let's go, what does Shu Xin want to eat?"
Shu Xin smiled and said, "I want to eat authentic Japanese food." ”
Zhuang Yuan was a little embarrassed, the Japanese food in the neighborhood is not cheap, and it was really difficult for him to bleed for so many years of frugality.
Fortunately, Tang Zizhao appeared in time, "Okay, I want to eat too, Uncle Zhuang, let's go, I'll please." ”
Shu Xin glanced at him with disdain, and then said to Zhuang Yuan: "Uncle Zhuang, you're welcome, this rich man has money, and we pick the most expensive one." ”
Tang Zizhao knocked Shu Xin's head very unceremoniously, and then pulled her to march towards the food after Darren and Zhuang Yuan.
Zhuang Yuan glanced back at the two of them and smiled meaningfully.
In the evening in Lizidong, Zhuang Yuan poured Tang Zizhao a glass of sake and asked, "Do you like Shu Xin?"
Tang Zizhao took a sip and nodded, "Yes, I've been chasing her, but the girl has a knot in her heart and refuses to accept me." ”
"It's her dad's business, I'm sorry for her. ”
"Uncle Zhuang, can you tell me what happened back then?"
Tang Zizhao asked a little anxiously, he was now desperate to remove Tang Yinzhong's suspicion so that he could open the lock in Shu Xin's heart.
"Zizhao, this is the biggest pain in my life, do you have to uncover my scars and see the bloody reality inside?"
"I'm sorry, Uncle Zhuang, in fact, Shu Xin came back this time to take revenge, and I feel that she also treats you as an enemy, I love her, I don't want to see her go astray, only if I know the truth can I love her justifiably." ”
"Zizhao, it was my fault back then, Shu Xin wanted to seek revenge on me, I confessed, but this will not affect the two of you, are you afraid that she will hurt my life?"
"I don't know what she's going to do, I just know that it's not just you who she wants to take revenge, but also my dad, she has already put her hand into the Pingzhong Group, I don't know how much more power she has, but she will never give up easily. ”
"Why did she take revenge on your father? Didn't your father treat her badly after all these years?"
"It's not that my dad treats her badly, my dad treats her very well, better than me and Ziyue, but in her heart, my dad is the one who caused her dad to die in prison. ”
Zhuang Yuan frowned, "How could it be? Shu Jinchen and Tang Yinzhong are so good, not to mention that this morning is still Chu Yanping's husband, how could he harm Chu Yanping to be widowed?"
"Aunt Chu is now married to my father, isn't my father suspicious?"
"No, Yin Zhong is not such a person, I believe him, we are roommates in the same dormitory, I know him too well, not to mention what he has to do to make Shu Jinchen so desperate that he wants to commit suicide in prison. ”
"It is said that Uncle Shu is because he knows that my dad has robbed Aunt Chu, and he is also preparing to rob the Jinchen Group. ”
"What? nonsense, Tang Yinzhong would never do such a thing at all, Zizhao, who said this?"
"Aunt Chu told me that someone wrote this in an anonymous letter to Shu Xin. ”
"Anonymous letters, that's even more impossible, it's impossible to say who made it up. ”
"Uncle Zhuang, why are you so sure, just based on what you know about my father? But this is not enough, Shu Xin will not believe it, if it is not so, how could Uncle Shu's character commit suicide in prison. ”
Zhuang Yuan also fell into deep thought when he heard Tang Zizhao say this, and I don't know how long it took before Zhuang Yuan picked up the wine glass and drank a glass of wine violently, put down the wine glass and said: "I don't believe that Yinzhong will do such a thing, Zizhao, you let me think about it again, Shu Xin will give her an explanation." ”
After saying that, he got up and went to check out, and then left the inside hole.
Tang Zizhao didn't move, he drank wine and thought about everything Zhuang Yuan said just now, he believed his father, but he couldn't convince Shu Xin just by believing, he wanted real evidence to prove that Tang Yinzhong was innocent.
