Chapter Seventy-Five: Time Is Like Water
Chu Tong cried, but was moved by this poignant and legendary story, which was completely in line with all her fantasies about her biological father, since her father had gone, her mind was over.
"What, are you Luo Lan's relatives? Why don't you report the money he owes me and the travel expenses for me to scatter the ashes in Wuhan, as well as the 1,000 yuan you promised just now, just give me a total of 3,000. You Rat looked insatiable, so Liu Kunlun couldn't respond, threw him a thousand yuan, and pulled Chu Tong to leave.
"Wait a minute. Chu Tong opened his wallet and took all the money in it to You Mouse.
"He's a liar. Liu Kunlun persuaded.
"I know he's a liar, but he's the last person to be with my dad after all. After Chu Tong finished speaking, he took a step back and bowed deeply, and You Mouse, who was counting the money with spit, suddenly became sneered, lost his usual slipperyness, wanted to stretch out his hand but didn't dare, just stood there and laughed awkwardly.
Chu Tong went downstairs and let out a sigh, the smell of You Mouse's house was really bad, the moldy walls and the rotten food and the body odor of the human body not bathing for a long time were mixed together and it was suffocating.
Her biological father died ten years ago, and Chu Tong's road to finding her father came to an unsatisfactory end, but she was still satisfied, her father was a hero and a man, and she never forgot their mother until she died, but her mother was cold and stubborn and unkind, which made her very dissatisfied.
Chu Tong sat in the car and muttered all the way to his mother Chu Yanran, saying that Cao Cao Cao had arrived, and her mother's phone had called, asking her daughter to come to the hotel to see her.
"Where are you now?" asked Chu Yanran.
"I'm outside, in the car. Chu Tong made a silent gesture at Liu Kunlun.
"Be with Liu Kunlun and call your little boyfriend to come along. Chu Yanran didn't bother to fight wits with her daughter at all, and hung up after speaking.
"My mother wants to talk to you, do you dare to go?" Chu Tong stuck out his tongue.
"What don't you dare. Liu Kunlun acted as if nothing happened.
Unexpectedly, not only did Mr. Chu and her assistant sit in the hotel room, but there was also Lu Gang, as soon as he saw Liu Kunlun come in, Lu Gang got up and hugged Liu Kunlun's shoulder with a smile and said: "Mr. Chu, let me introduce you, this is Xiao Liu, Liu Kunlun, our senior assistant to the president of Golden Swan, my right-hand man, Xiao Liu came from a humble background, but there is a sentence How to say it, the hero does not ask the source." β
Chu Yanran smiled heartily: "Xiao Liu's story, I also inquired about it, and sure enough, it was a hero who came out of a teenager, but after all, you are still young, especially Chu Tong, although he is a sophomore, he is still very naΓ―ve, and you have no objection to making friends, but it seems that it is still early to talk about marriage." β
"Mom~" Chu Tong said angrily.
"Of course, if you can stand the test of time, then I will bless you, but I still think that young people should focus on their careers, and only when they have a career can they be responsible and worthy of their families, our Chu family's family background is not very bad, Auntie has no concept of family, but reciprocity is indeed necessary, to be honest, a senior assistant can't be the son-in-law of our Chu family, Xiao Liu, do you understand what Auntie means?"
Similar words, Liu Kunlun heard Su Rongmao say in the Su family villa, and now from Chu Yanran, a strong woman, it is another feeling, Chu Tong may feel that the words are piercing the heart, but Liu Kunlun has experienced a lot after all, and he thinks that what Mr. Chu, as a mother, said is reasonable.
"I understand, Mr. Chu. Liu Kunlun replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Xiao Liu's future achievements are absolutely limitless. Lu Gang rounded the scene at the right time, Chu Yanran said, our mother and daughter have something to say, and Lu Gang took Liu Kunlun to say goodbye with interest.
The guest left, and the assistant also avoided it, Chu Tong spoke first: "Mom, I know Luo Lan's whereabouts." β
Chu Yanran was not shocked: "You still went to look for it." β
"Don't you want to know his whereabouts?" Chu Tong wondered about his mother's indifference.
"This person's life and death have nothing to do with me since twenty years ago. Chu Yanran said, "I think I should talk about you." β
"He died, he died ten years ago, and before he died, he asked someone to scatter his ashes in the Yangtze River in Wuhan. Chu Tong looked into her mother's eyes, she didn't want her mother to be a heartless person.
Chu Yanran's pupils shrank slightly: "Oh, that's it...... Before you graduate from college, your main focus is on studying......"
"Mom, you've said it millions of times, don't repeat your mistakes, I'm not stupid, I can tell right from wrong, and besides, what age is it now, even if there is, the social environment and solutions are different from those in the eighties, don't worry, I will never make the same mistakes as you. β
Chu Yanran was a little relieved, she was a person from the past, and she could see from her daughter's gait that she had not made substantial progress with Liu Kunlun, which also showed that Liu Kunlun was a steady young man, but Luo Lan also behaved quite decently back then, alas, men......
Chu Tong also understood that her mother was completely dead to Luo Lan, and she was even indifferent to the news of death, she didn't understand why people who loved each other so much would eventually become enemies who never got along with each other.
But how can a daughter understand her mother's heart at this moment, Chu Yanran looked out the window, this is the core area of Omi City, the statue of Chen Zikun on the central square is still standing, but the surrounding scenery has long been different, and the man in a white police uniform riding a 28 permanent car twenty years ago has disappeared forever, leaving only a string of silver bell-like laughter of the girl in the back seat.
β¦β¦
Lu Gang told Liu Kunlun that Chu is always an important partner of Golden Swan, and the Golden Swan Hotel will add a title in the future, the full name is Tianhua Golden Swan Hotel, with the joining of Tianhua, Golden Swan will become one of the few five-star hotels in Jinjiang.
"Xiao Liu, why does the big husband have no wife, when the elder brother says something from the heart, the rich girl is not easy to serve, you can still maintain the balance if you are unlucky, then this marriage will come to an end, since ancient times, the right person is the most basic condition in marriage. β
"Thank you, Mr. Lu. Liu Kunlun has a peaceful mentality, he is no longer the stunned young man in the Dunhuang Club back then, and he has a deeper understanding of love, he believes in his own ability, which will not only satisfy Chu Yanran, but also impress this philistine Hankou woman.
The summer vacation began, Chu Tong and his mother went back to their hometown in Wuhan, the construction site of the Golden Swan was in full swing, Liu Kunlun lent the Yamaha R1 to Zhan Ziyu as promised, but when it was almost a month, Zhan Ziyu had a car accident, the person was fine, the car was destroyed, Liu Kunlun listened to the persuasion of his friends, and sold the car to Zhan Ziyu at a discount, and when the summer vacation was almost over, Zhan Ziyu's R1 had been on the yellow license plate of the Omi City, and it could be justifiably opened on the streets and alleys.
At the beginning of the new semester, a new member of the motorcycle club was added, Chu Tong appeared with her Ducati big devil, perhaps Chu always adhered to the purpose of raising a rich daughter, for fear that Liu Kunlun would abduct his daughter with a motorcycle, in short, he bought Chu Tong a large-displacement beast, at least he didn't have to sit in the back seat of Liu Kunlun's motorcycle.
Liu Jinshan's dream mansion was finally completed, Qi Qingyu's attention to this small project far exceeded others, he personally supervised the work, even if the wheat was cut, the construction period was not broken, the rural villa could be built soon, but this project is slow work out of fine work, from cement sand to furniture and household appliances are personally selected by Qi Qingyu, the shape is unique, and the old Cui family's mansion is more than one cut higher, there is a garage in the yard, can park two car miles, Qi Qingyu also paved the gravel road in front of the door with cement, and the old Liu family does not have to pass by the door of Cui's house againγ
On the day of the house, Liu Kunlun's friends came to congratulate, something very frustrating but helpless, the old lady of the Cui family, Cui Jinzhu, did a funeral, isn't this a heart, while doing a happy event and a funeral, the people in the village didn't think it was a big deal, the two sides almost fought, and even the public security in the township was dispatched to calm down.
Later, Liu Jinshan heard from his brother-in-law that Cui Jinzhu was angry to death, because his own building was higher than the Cui family, better than the Cui family, and the old Liu family Ding Xing was like a rainbow, Cui Jinzhu had a cerebral infarction, and then he was angry and died directly.
"You deserve it!" said Mr. Liu, who simply regretted not being able to witness the death of his enemy.
Liu Jinshan and Qin Su'e finally moved, left the big garbage dump where they had lived for ten years, and moved back to their ancestral house. The Cui family bullied the weak and feared the hard, knowing that the son of the Liu family was doing big business in the city, and it was too peaceful on weekdays.
Liu Kunlun is doing a good job in the position of senior assistant to the president, he still loves to wear suits, but Youngor has been replaced by Armani, combing his meticulous back every day, looking like a young man pretending to be old, and there are business management books on the table, but he feels that there is no self-taught management of this kind of thing, otherwise how could Zhu Yuanzhang, who has never learned management, manage hundreds of thousands of troops, and finally manage the whole country, so "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is his favorite reading.
Lu Gang once suggested that Liu Kunlun go to further his studies, first get an undergraduate diploma in the adult college entrance examination, and then read an EMBA, he said seriously, brother, I am just a high school degree, although doing business is not as good as applying for the public examination, education is not the most important, but there is no MBA or anything to come out and mix with the whole body always feel less, and it is good to face the mother-in-law with a gold-plated diploma, isn't it?
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Lu. Liu Kunlun snickered when he thought of his future mother-in-law's face, he couldn't prevent the young man from burning firewood, he and Chu Tong had already rolled over the sheets, and the young female college student was very different from Li Mengdie's kind of oiran, and it had a unique charm.
At this time, Liu Kunlun has gradually forgotten Su Qing, Luo Xiaoxiao and Li Mengdie, but fate does not seem to want him to be separated from the past, Lu Gang said that he plans to enter the residential industry, and wants to take a piece of land from the original Omijiang Textile Factory, the competition is fierce, and he needs to find foreign aid, he plans to go to Beijing and let Liu Kunlun accompany him.
"Xiao Liu, I heard that you have some connections in Beijing, so let's introduce you. Lu Gang said.
