Chapter 28: I don't like myself like this
The distant capital, the Mei family.
Mei Caiyi sat quietly in her studio, holding the contract she had just sent back, feeling uneasy.
After receiving a call from Uncle Li, she wanted to go over in person, yes, she really wanted to go over in person, but in the end, she gave up the idea because she didn't know how to explain it once they met.
It's better not to see than to see.
Although it has disappeared for three years, the current situation of the Mei family is not very good, but the Mei family is the Mei family, in the capital, no one can underestimate the Mei family, borrowing the power of the Mei family to protect a star group, it is just a small matter, but there is also a trouble, that is, the enemies of the Mei family may use the star group as a tool to attack the Mei family.
Mei Caiyi didn't say this, because if things came to that point, the Mei family would also need to go all out, and that level of competition was not something that ordinary people could participate in, and telling Chu He would also make him more troubled, so it was better not to know.
The door opened, and the dark room was lit up, and someone turned on the light.
It is an old man, seventy years old, but with a tough body and a solemn expression, he looks full of majesty.
He is Mei Zhonghua, the master of the Mei family in the capital.
"Grandpa, why are you here?" Mei Caiyi stood up and greeted respectfully.
The old man didn't speak, he walked over, took the contract from Mei Caiyi's hand, glanced at it for a moment, and then said: "I heard that you asked Xiaoyu to go to Tianhai to do business, or for the Star Group, the one with virtual technology, I want to know what's going on?"
Facing the old man of his own family, Mei Caiyi did not hide it, and said directly: "That company is Chuhe's, and the virtual technology was also developed and created by him, he is my life-saving benefactor, so I will help him." ”
The old man sat down, glanced at Mei Caiyi, and said, "Is that the Shishan Village you are talking about?"
Mei Caiyi nodded lightly, the old man's brows immediately furrowed, and he looked at the contract for a while and spoke: "The Shishan Village you mentioned, I have asked many people, but no one knows about its existence, yesterday, I went to the sanatorium and saw General Hong, but I inadvertently mentioned it." ”
Mei Caiyi was also shocked, although there are many children surnamed Hong in the army, after all, the Hong family, the military family, is the most powerful old red family, but there is only one person who can be called General Hong, and that is Hong Tianhu.
It has been twenty years since Hong Tianhu retired, and he is very old, but he is still alive, like Mount Tai, suppressing evil spirits.
The Tiger King troops brought out by him are definitely one of the most powerful elite troops in the country.
Mei Caiyi asked a little eagerly: "General Hong knows about Shishan Village, what did he say?"
Old Man Mei looked a little strange, and said: "Old General Hong said that it is a fierce beast in a cage, and it must not be provoked, but it can only let them grow old slowly and slowly die and dissipate." ”
Mei Caiyi was puzzled and looked at the old man, but the old man shook his head and said: "General Hong only said this, and he didn't say anything else, but I can see that General Hong is very jealous of Shishan Village." ”
Mei Caiyi was shocked, you must know that General Hong is now known as the first person in the army, and even what he is afraid of is really terrifying.
Mei Caiyi seemed to have some kind of memory, and said: "I have lived in Shishan Village for three years, and in the past three years, I have traveled to every corner of the village, poor, poor, and closed, no different from other villages, only the difference is that the people in that village, all of them are extraordinary, if I am not a martial artist, I am afraid I can't see it." ”
Old Man Mei said: "Don't provoke, contact normally, since General Hong said so, there must be a reason, but we don't know." ”
"It's an eventful time, and if you can do less, you can do less. ”
"I know Grandpa. ”
"Okay, rest early, since you are back, Feng Wei's burden has to be picked up, this is not a trivial matter. ”
After the old man finished speaking, he left, but the more Mei Caiyi thought about it, the more she couldn't sleep.
"The beast in the cage, a small stone mountain village, even the old general Hong is afraid of it, what kind of place is this, and what kind of difference is it in the Chu River?"
Of course, Mei Caiyi knows that Chu He has no father or mother, and he is deeply loved in Shishan Village, especially Grandpa Zhao, who is treated like a grandson.
And if Shishan Village is really so terrifying, then why does a small starry sky group need her to take refuge, at this moment, she can't figure it out.
On the third day, when Chu He and his two daughters got off work, they found that there were more unfamiliar faces in the house.
Four people, two men and two women.
"Xiaohe, this is Xiaoba and Xiaojiu, as well as Xiaohong and Xiaobai, Xiaohong and Xiaobai are driving with Ziyi and Youyou, Xiaoba and Xiaojiu, responsible for protecting you. Grandpa Zhao introduced.
Chu He wanted to say, I don't need it, but Grandpa Zhao even invited someone, what else could he say?
In the kitchen, Aunt Yu also arrived, and when she saw Chu River, Aunt Yu was also very happy.
"Aunt Yu, I'm really troublesome to you, I've always liked to eat the dishes you make, I'm so happy that you can come, in the future, I will treat this place as Shishan Village, as my home, don't be polite to me." ”
Aunt Yu smiled honestly and said, "Okay Xiaohe, Aunt Yu won't be polite to you, family affairs, just leave it to me, Aunt Yu is still young, how many more years can I do?"
Yes, although Grandpa Zhao called, Aunt Yu is different from the bodyguard, Aunt Yu is a relative to Chu He, so when eating, Chu He also called Aunt Yu up, and everyone gathered around and ate more appetizingly.
"Xiaohe, these two young ladies are beautiful, which one is your girlfriend?"
Chu He's heart suddenly resented, but he still had to explain: "Aunt Yu, they are the managers of my company, and they live here for convenience, don't misunderstand." ”
I didn't expect Aunt Yu to say: "This is good, the building near the water will get the moon first, cultivate well, and sooner or later it will achieve good things, Xiaohe, it's not Aunt Yu who said you, you are not too young, it's time to find a woman to take care of yourself." ”
Chu He couldn't speak, he glanced at the two girls, and the two girls also blushed, but Qu Youyou was bolder, and immediately changed the topic and said, "Aunt Yu, your cooking skills are really good, and the food you cook is much better than mine." ”
Aunt Yu said: "It's all country tricks, it's very rough, you just like it." ”
Finally changed the topic, the two women breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Chu He, and were dissatisfied, they were always recognized like this, they were really at a loss, should they move out?
Zhou Ziyi just thought about it, so she gave up this idea, not to mention the thoughts about Chu River in her heart, just because of this king's villa, such a luxurious place, they were reluctant to leave and live in that small apartment building?
Before I bought a house, I thought that the apartment building was very comfortable, but now it is impossible.
Zhou Ziyi doesn't leave, of course Qu Youyou won't leave, after all, she promised Zhou Ziyi's mother that she must take good care of her, and of course the two will not be separated.
After eating, the two girls made tea and went upstairs, Aunt Yu cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, but Chu He and Grandpa Zhao sat in the hall, Chu He wanted to tell Grandpa Zhao about joining the army, after all, it was not good to keep it hidden.
And now I live with Grandpa Zhao, and when the time comes, I can't hide it.
"Xiaohe, do you have something to say?" Grandpa Zhao took a sip of tea, closed his eyes comfortably and gently felt the fragrance of tea, he had not enjoyed it like this for many years.
The memory seems to be very far away, at that time, he was full of righteousness, challenged the masters of the three northern provinces, and never failed, but unfortunately, he met a person who was destined to be absolutely unsurpassable, yes, he met the grandfather of the Chu family.
With his arrogant personality and arrogant strength, under the hands of Master Chu, he didn't even survive three moves.
At that time, he woke up and realized that he had never been involved in the world.
Therefore, he was taken in by the Chu family and became one of the guardians of the Chu family.
For so many years, he was willing to be mediocre and never married in his life, just for that promise, promising to protect the Chu family.
Every time he saw Chu He, he felt that he had no regrets and no regrets.
"Grandpa Zhao, Uncle Li, I have signed up to join the army and prepare to serve in the army. Chu He lowered his head and finally said what he wanted to say.
In an instant, the relaxed and warm atmosphere condensed into ice and became heavy.
Both of them had a big change in their faces, but they were happy and worried.
It was Old Man Zhao who was worried, his face was full of worry, and his eyes were full of concern and powerlessness.
The joy is Uncle Li, Uncle Li's face is full of excitement, and there is an irrepressible fanaticism in his eyes.
Grandpa Zhao looked at Chu He and said, "Xiaohe, how can you have such an idea, you know, I have always disagreed, not to mention the start-up of the Star Group, I still need you here, what's wrong with you, what should the Star Group do?"
"I can see that virtual technology is developed by you, and only you understand it. ”
Li Heifeng said immediately: "Xiaohe, Uncle Li supports you, as long as you want to do it, just do it, life is short, and it will not be in vain to do it." ”
Grandpa Zhao glared at Li Heifeng, and Li Heifeng said with some embarrassment: "Didn't Grandpa Zhao always say that he would not interfere with any decisions of Xiaohe and let him control his life?"
Yes, Grandpa Zhao said it, and the bottom line that he has always adhered to, has become his own restriction at this time, and his heart is full of bitterness.
Of course Chu He can't say, Grandpa Zhao, I don't want to go either, who has nothing to do to suffer that crime?
But he only said hypocritically: "Grandpa Zhao, in fact, you also know my character, I have always been stupid and cowardly, I can hide when I encounter something, and endure one step to open the sky, but more and more things have happened recently, let me know that as a man, I can't retreat when I encounter something, which makes people laugh." ”
"Do you know, the Star Group made tens of billions of dollars in one day, I was not happy, but scared, because I didn't have the ability to guard, I thought at that time, if I didn't make a fortune, I would disband the starry sky, anyway, it would be enough for a lifetime, and even Ziyi and Yoyo made fun of me at that time. ”
"Yes, I deserved to be made fun of, because I didn't dare to face it at all, I only thought that peace was a blessing, retreat once, retreat twice, I was afraid that if I retreated too many times, it would become a habit, and I ---- dislike myself like this. ”
Yes, I don't like myself like this, although sometimes, Chu He looks heartless, but in fact, he knows his own business, he just doesn't have the courage to fight with others, even if these things obviously belong to him.
Hearing these words, Grandpa Zhao was very shocked in his heart, but in his eyes, there was an expression of horror and horror, which only flashed by and no one noticed it.
