Chapter 172: The Wandering Skeleton
Ye Jinyu took the wine handed over by Jiang Chenzheng, but she was not in a hurry to taste it, but shook it for a while, letting the aroma of the wine waft to her nose, and then, raised her head to look at Jiang Chenzheng, and asked curiously: "What do you mean, for the sake of the family business, you took the initiative to give up your ideals?"
Jiang Chenzheng didn't answer immediately, he pointed the wine glass to the dazzling crystal lamp above his head, and stared at it for a long time, as if he was seriously appreciating the color of the red wine.
After a while, Jiang Chenzheng smiled and looked at Ye Jinyu and said. "To be precise, it shouldn't be called 'giving up', but 'letting go'. ”
"Huh?" Ye Jinyu was very interested and wanted to hear this story, today's Jiang Chenzheng showed too many other sides, which made Ye Jinyu feel novel.
"When I graduated from business, I also got a diploma in architectural design, and in my early twenties, I was facing a choice about the future," Jiang Chen was looking at Ye Jinyu: "My mother and sister came to my graduation ceremony, and then in our home in the United States, the three of us had a family meeting. ”
Ye Jinyu guessed and said, "Is it because my mother wants you to go back and take over?"
"No, it's the opposite," Jiang Chen lowered his head slightly, turned the wine glass in his hand, and said, "My mother told me that if I wanted to fulfill my ideals, she would never force me, and even encouraged me to do what I wanted to do, and my sister was ready to come back and take over." ”
Ye Jinyu: "......"
"I think it's weird, don't you?" Jiang Chenzheng sighed: "The heir of the Jiang family is beautiful on the surface, but in fact, it may not be easy to be, I don't know if it is fate, none of the Jiang family's family members can live past the age of fifty, when my father died, it was not even forty, some people say that this is because the Jiang family was not clean back then, so they were cursed, I may not believe this, but my middle-aged widowed mother is really afraid!"
"Like...... is not very credible. Ye Jinyu felt that Jiang Chenzheng should be comforted at this time, and couldn't help but think that there were still people to compete for such a "high-risk" position, I don't know if the second uncle's biological mother had considered this so-called "fate" back then.
"In the end, I decided to come back, first, those claims have no scientific basis, and second, as a man, I have no reason to be greedy for life and afraid of death, and let two women resist me in front. Jiang Chen raised his glass to Ye Jinyu, with a bit of confidence and arrogance in his expression.
"Mr. Jiang, don't say anything else, I wish you a long life!" Ye Jinyu raised her wine glass and made a joke.
Jiang Chenzheng took a sip of wine, tasted it slightly, and said: "This wine has the aroma of blackberry fruit, sweet wine and port wine. ”
Ye Jinyu said with a smile: "82-year-old Champ Admiralty, harvested from Cabernet Franc and Merlot, produced in Sai, France
t-Emilio
The estate, although not as good as Bordeaux of the same year, is already considered a good quality. ”
A hint of surprise appeared on Jiang Chenzheng's face: "You still have research on red wine?"
"That...... It reads," Ye Jinyu pointed to the wine bottle in Jiang Chen's hand, and then said: "My grandfather likes red wine all his life, and my grandmother likes it, and she will buy a batch back every year.
Ye Jinyu thought about it, and laughed a little self-deprecatingly, grandma hated girls the most, saying that she had lost her ladylike style, but when she talked to Jiang Chen about it today, she didn't seem to be holding back too much.
Jiang Chenzheng's eyes flashed, and he persuaded, "Then you give it a try?"
Ye Jinyu looked at the wine in his cup, hesitated for a moment, wiped his lips a little, and then looked at Jiang Chenzheng and said: "It's really good, but I promised my grandmother a long time ago that I would quit drinking, so let's stop drinking!"
"It's all mentioned that I've quit drinking, which means ...... Have you ever been an addict before?" Jiang Chenzheng immediately heard the meaning of his words and asked deliberately.
"How to say, people like me, who have studied abroad since childhood, will inevitably have a period of wandering. Ye Jinyu said, she was embarrassed to get up.
"I can't imagine a girl ...... Actually, I also went abroad as a teenager, but I have always been very well-behaved, I only know how to read all day long, and I don't know what it means to be a wandering wreck, am I staying in a fake school?" Jiang Chen Zheng laughed back.
Ye Jinyu was drinking soda with a soda, and when Jiang Chenzheng came to say this, she coughed violently, and she couldn't stop for a long time.
Jiang Chenzheng couldn't laugh or cry on his face, quickly stood up, patted Ye Jinyu's back, and said, "It's all before, I didn't blame you, you don't have to be too nervous." ”
Ye Jinyu was choked by the water, her face was red, where was she worried that Jiang Chen was blaming, she suddenly remembered that Jing Hui had said that when Jiang Chen was abroad, he was also very good at playing, but he didn't expect him to be well-behaved in front of him, which really made people laugh and cry.
Ye Jinyu finally stood up and said, "I'm sorry, I'll go to the bathroom." ”
Ye Jinyu was just looking at the location of the bathroom here, and Jiang Chen's mobile phone on the table rang.
Jiang Chen picked it up casually, looked at the screen, looked a little hesitant, and then turned his head to look at Ye Jinyu.
Ye Jinyu was already under the guidance of the waiter, walked a few steps to the side of the stairs, and then turned right to a corridor, naturally he didn't notice, Jiang Chen behind him picked up the mobile phone and hesitated for a while before picking it up.
When she entered the bathroom, Ye Jinyu coughed in the bathroom for a long time, so she couldn't feel the soda smell in her throat, and when she looked up and looked at the mirror in front of her, Ye Jinyu couldn't help but feel that her appearance at this time was completely blushing and thick-necked, and when she turned around and fell into Jiang Chenzheng's eyes, maybe she would be teased by him again.
Ye Jinyu couldn't even stand herself anymore, so she simply turned on the faucet, splashed her face with water, and when she raised her head again, she felt that her face was cold, and she felt much better than just now.
But at this time, Ye Jinyu didn't plan to go out in a hurry, thinking about the interaction with Jiang Chenzheng just now, she couldn't help laughing, she now found that talking to Jiang Chenzheng can also be relaxed and happy, and even makes her feel very happy.
After the water on her face dried, the hot flashes did not subside, Ye Jinyu looked at the mirror, stroked her cheek with the back of her hand, and looked at herself from a few angles for a while, before walking out of the bathroom,
Ye Jinyu walked slowly, and noticed that the corridor outside the bathroom was not very long, the wall was simply pasted with wallpaper, and there were no decorative paintings, but it looked clean and warm, and the ceiling was arranged in a starry sky pattern, and it was still shining, which was really ingenious.
Ye Jinyu was just about to turn left and cross the corridor and walk towards her and Jiang Chenzheng's seats, when a slightly obese figure almost trotted past her eyes.
At this time, Liu Chang's sudden appearance made Ye Jinyu stunned for a moment, she subconsciously slowed down her pace and watched Liu Chang walk straight towards Jiang Chen, who was facing this side.
"Mr. Jiang, Jinyi said that you are here, and I rushed over after I was busy with business, I'm sorry!" Liu Chang's voice was very abrupt and harsh in the originally quiet French restaurant, and his words sounded as if Jiang Chen was making a special appointment to dine with their father and daughter.
Ye Jinyu simply leaned against the wall of the corridor, and from her angle, she could just see that the chair she was sitting on just now had been replaced by a new person.
Although the person had his back to Ye Jinyu, Ye Jinyu still noticed from her back, which was slightly thinner than before, that Ye Jinyi had fled abroad in the past few days, and she might not be stable, and the speed of this weight loss was slightly faster.
Noticing that Liu Chang was standing in front of him, Jiang Chenzheng looked indifferent, nodded, and greeted: "I heard from Lawyer Wen just now that you are here together." ”
Liu Chang glanced at Ye Jinyi, asked her to move her seat, and sat down: "Mr. Jiang......"
As soon as the words were spoken, the restaurant manager stepped forward, owed slightly, raised ten fingers and put them in the middle of his lips for a comparison, and then said, "This gentleman, I'm sorry, can I trouble you to lower your voice a little." ”
Ye Jinyu couldn't help laughing, but unexpectedly received Jiang Chenzheng's gaze, obviously she had already noticed her, and her eyes were signaling Ye Jinyu to go over.
Although she was too lazy to face the father and daughter, Ye Jinyu still raised her feet and walked towards Jiang Chenzheng.
Just when she was about to walk behind the father and daughter, Ye Jinyu seemed to hear Ye Jinyi's crying: "Chenzheng, I was confused by the police, what Li Shikun, I don't know this person at all, my father called me early yesterday morning and asked me to come back and explain this matter to the police...... I don't understand how to explain it, is Ye Jinyu still refusing to let me go, and is making up charges against me?"
Now that she was named, Ye Jinyu suddenly decided not to show up for the time being, and listen to how others complained about herself.
"Jinyi has always been timid, how can she know any gang leader, this time it was indeed my wife who did something stupid, almost affecting the child, Jinyi was scared and lost sleep for several days, so I let her go out for a walk, I originally thought that the case had been figured out, who would have thought that the police would come to the door again. Liu Chang was completely aggrieved for Ye Jinyi.
"Are you sure Miss Ye doesn't know Li Shikun?" Jiang Chenzheng asked in a flat tone.
"Of course I don't know, my daughter is simpler than ordinary girls, as soon as I called yesterday, this child took the earliest flight from Singapore last night to come back, the clear self-clear, we will go to the police station in the afternoon, the fake can't always come true, Ye Jinyu can't plant everything on Jinyi. Liu Chang babbled a lot more.
Jiang Chenzheng didn't look at the two opposite, but noticed that Ye Jinyu sat in the seat behind the father and daughter of the Liu family.
Ye Jinyi should have noticed Jiang Chenzheng's expression, looked behind him, and then turned around and asked, "Chenzheng, are you looking at something?"
Jiang Chenzheng stroked his temples with his hand and shook his head without any smile.
