Time is like lightning, time is like a shuttle, and in a blink of an eye, eighteen years have passed.

Pearl City is an international metropolis. There are many buildings, restaurants, bustling streets full of world-famous brands, countless financial centers and a variety of restaurants and restaurants.

At the entrance of a landmark building, top luxury cars such as Rolls-Royce, Maybach, and Bentley are parked. A greeter in uniform and white gloves is standing in the center of the doorway, opening the door for each guest.

The people who walk into the building from here are all gorgeous and beautiful, and they are all high-ranking officials and nobles from all over the world.

At this moment, I saw a red taxi driving into the entrance of the building, which looked so out of place compared to the limousines around.

I saw a plainly dressed girl with a plain face getting out of the taxi.

The girl was in her early twenties, dressed in a gray work suit, and looked cheap. Her eyes are bright and bright, and her eyes are clear, like a clear stream injected into this bejeweled place.

The greeter glanced at her, and instead of opening the door for her, he pretended not to see anything. He muttered a sentence in Cantonese: "It's so old-fashioned..."

The girl kept her head down, looking nervous and disgusted, as if she didn't like this vanity fair.

When you walk into the building, you will see a golden lobby. She looked up, and a huge LED screen in front of her scrolled a few big words: Welcome to Shunshi Group.

Looking around, the hall was full of security personnel and greeters.

A man in a suit at the front desk saw the girl, walked up slowly, bowed politely to her, and said in Cantonese, "Welcome!

The girl didn't seem to understand Cantonese, so she was stunned for a moment, and the scene looked a little embarrassing.

The man then said in Cantonese, "Excuse me, are you invited to the banquet?"

The girl still didn't understand.

The man then spoke again in English.

This time the girl understood, she shook her head and said: "I'm here to find someone, I can't understand Cantonese, you can speak Chinese." ”

The man carefully looked at the woman's dress, with a slight look of contempt on his face, and said, "May I ask your surname, which institution is it?"

The girl paused and said, "I'm a teacher." ”

"What do you mean?" the man didn't seem to understand.

The girl frowned, raised her voice and said, "I said that I am a teacher, an English teacher, a teacher!"

The man shrugged his shoulders and said, "But Miss, we didn't invite anyone from the school here?"

The girl turned her head, not wanting to explain much to him, and said, "I have come to my parents." ”

The man showed a trace of doubt on his face and asked, "Looking for your parents, Miss, are you in the wrong place?" We are here Shunshi Group, and we are holding an annual meeting today. How could your parents ......" Although he still maintained a polite tone, anyone could hear it, but his tone was full of contempt, as if to say that this is not for people of your status to come in.

The girl sighed and said lightly, "I know, my parents are here." ”

The man was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do your parents call them?"

The girl said, "My parents are your boss's parents." ”

The man's face was shocked, and he hurriedly asked, "Your parents are our Mr. Jin's parents?"

The girl nodded.

The man then asked, "You mean that you are the sister of our President Jin?"

The woman was silent.

The man looked puzzled and cautious, he looked at her again, and then picked up the walkie-talkie and called: "Hey, hey, call the main station, there is a young lady here, who says it is the boss's sister, please ask Secretary Chen...... Is there such a thing?" he paused, then asked, "What do you call it?"

The girl whispered, "Kim Mill." ”

"Miss Jin, please wait a moment!" the man did not dare to show the slightest contempt.

After a while, he received a reply from the walkie-talkie, and immediately smiled at the girl, and said, "Miss Jin, please come with me! It turns out that you are the chairman's sister! This is my business card, I am the head of the group's security department. ”

In an instant, he became respectful and extremely attentive to lead the way for the girl.

This girl is none other than Jinpeng's sister, Jin Mier.

The boss of Shunshi Group is his brother, Jinpeng.

Jin Mier is twenty-four years old this year, and she has not left her hometown all these years, and her parents have settled in Pearl City with Jinpeng. She hadn't seen her family for a year, and this time Shunshi Group held an annual meeting, and her parents asked her to come to Pearl City to reunite with her family.

After turning around, Kim Miel was taken to a splendid banquet hall. On a closer look, there are about 100 round tables in the hall, with exquisite tableware and exquisite dishes, and they are full of distinguished guests.

Looking ahead, in the center of the banquet hall is a circular stage, on which his brother Jin Peng is standing and giving passionate speeches, while the bottom of the stage is crowded with reporters who have come to cover the news.

Under the spotlight, I saw that Jin Peng was dressed casually, calmly, wearing a pair of glasses, covering those eyes, but he was no longer the appearance of his childhood, looking gentle and elegant.

Every guest in the audience listened attentively to his speech, and some even took out paper and pen to record it as if they were listening to a teaching.

I only heard Jin Peng Lang say: "Thank you for visiting Shunshi Group! Shunshi Group has been helped and supported by all walks of life to have today's development. Over the years, our group has been involved in real estate, finance, science and technology, culture, all-encompassing, all-encompassing.

Our responsibility is to seek true happiness for the broad masses of the people! Because of the common concept and common pursuit, we have come together!

What is the belief of my Shunshi Group, what is the mission? What is Shunshi? We follow the world, do not believe in heaven, do not believe in the earth, do not believe in fate, we only believe in ourselves, our feelings, our wisdom, our hands, this is the concept of Shunshi!

Shunshi is a joyful creed, we believe that everything in real life is bright and happy, we believe that only by making our real world rich, will we be truly happy!

Because in this world, there is nothing to believe except our real feelings, and the conclusions reached by reasoning are also unreliable. Nothing in this world is real except what we see and feel.

Because of this, we must not only create happiness and beauty for ourselves, but also share this happiness and beauty with everyone and the world!"

He humorously said: "I promise you, as long as you join our Shunshi Group, the house is not a problem! Luxury car, not a problem! Wife, not a problem!"

Everyone in the audience burst into laughter, followed by warm applause.

Jin Peng nodded, and then said: "Joining Shunshi Group, everyone will get true happiness! Because we conform to the hearts of the people and the world, we are willing to accept people from all over the world who believe in themselves!"

Jinpeng's voice is transmitted through the microphone, rich and magnetic, and seems to have a magical magic that makes everyone listen to it as if they were fascinated.

All the guests in the room were attentive, except for one who did not listen to him, and wandered around the banquet hall all the time, looking for a seat.

This person was Kimmier, and she looked at it and saw her parents in the guest of honor.

I saw that Jin Mier's parents were dressed in graceful and luxurious clothes, and they looked at their son with a smug face, nodding and applauding.

Jin Mi'er walked over softly and greeted them: "Dad, Mom, I'm here......"

Her parents glanced back at her and nodded, "Here, sit down." Seeing their daughter's arrival, they did not show the slightest surprise or joy.

Kim Miel stood in front of her parents in a daze, her face looking happy and desolate, but her parents never looked at her again, she sat down silently, and saw that her parents' teacup was empty, so she hurriedly poured tea for them.

Her parents still didn't pay attention to her, and their eyes were all on Jin Peng's body.

Jin Mi'er lowered her head, her expression was very lost, and she said slowly: "Dad, Mom, how are you doing here?"

Her father casually replied, "Okay...... Good...... With your brother here, everything is fine......"

Jin Mi'er said faintly: "Our hometown has changed now, Uncle Zhang from the commissary at the door has also left this year, and now it is being demolished everywhere, and our old house has also been demolished......" She paused, sighed, and said: "Sometimes, I really miss my childhood...... Mom and Dad, when will you go back and have a look?" she couldn't help but show a little sadness as she spoke.

Her mother glanced at her and said coldly: "Can our hometown compare with this place? This is a pearl! Every inch of land is expensive, and a toilet is worth more than a house in your hometown! How luxurious your brother lives now, do you know how much it costs a single foot?"

Jin Mi'er stopped talking for a moment, but kept shaking her head, her face looking extremely cursed.

Her mother looked at her, with a hint of disgust on her face, and said, "You listen to your brother and learn more from your brother, you are not too young, you can't always let us worry about our parents." ”

Jin Mi'er stopped talking and reluctantly responded, and then said, "Dad, Mom, is there something wrong with your second elder calling me over in such a hurry this time?"

I saw her parents look at each other, and finally her father said: "It's not for the sake of your future, we discussed it and decided to ask your brother to arrange for you to work in the group." ”

Jin Mi'er frowned and said, "Mom and Dad, but I have my own job." ”

Her mother's face was displeased, and she said, "How much can you earn from your indiscriminate job? Come to your brother and you will have a good way out!"

Jin Mier shook her head and said, "I am a people's teacher, teaching and educating people, how can I become inconsistent?"

Her mother softened her tone and said, "Okay, okay, okay, it's okay if you don't want to go to work at your brother's, after all, you're a girl." Well, you can have fun here during this time, buy some clothes, and dress up. Ask your brother to introduce you to a boyfriend. ”

Kim Mill said, "Mom, I don't want to find a boyfriend right now. ”

Her mother frowned and said, "You are not young anymore, let me tell you, women are worth only a few years, take advantage of your youth now, hurry up and marry yourself, otherwise, what will you do in the future?"

Jin Mier bowed her head and said: "Mom and Dad, I know that the people my brother is looking for are all gentlemen, they use women as playthings, I hate those people, and I won't associate with them!"

Her mother slapped the table and said angrily, "You're mad at me!

Jin Mi'er closed her eyes and sighed deeply, she didn't know how many times she had experienced such an unpleasant conversation as today. She was very confused and depressed in her heart, as if those moments of love and warmth with her parents only stayed in her childhood memories.

"For my good?" she couldn't help but think to herself, "Is it for their own happiness that their parents want her to get in touch with those gentlemen so hard?"

It didn't take long for Jinpeng's speech to end. He was about to step down, and his surroundings were instantly surrounded by crowds, and he couldn't get out for a while. He suddenly turned his head to look at Jinmier, and his eyes were mysterious and unpredictable. Jin Mi'er inadvertently raised her head to meet his gaze, and couldn't help but feel a tingling pain in her heart, and there was a dark tunnel in front of her.

Jin Mi'er hurriedly took a deep breath and avoided Jin Peng's eyes. She knew that when her brother came over, her parents would sing praises and the whole family would revolve around him. She was very resistant and wanted to leave immediately.

She felt sour, stood up suddenly, tears couldn't help rolling in her eyes, and said coldly: "Dad, Mom, I don't belong here, I'd better go." Jinpeng is your son, and I am also your daughter. When I was a child, although my family was not rich, we were full of love. Now, I think you have changed, I am not as rich as my brother, I am not as capable as him, I don't know if you still take me as your daughter. Originally, I should have died when I was six years old, and my life was given by Li Tian......"

Her mother's face changed dramatically, and she yelled at her, "What are you still doing mentioning that old story? Do you expect us to be as miserable as Li Tianci's parents?"

Jin Mi'er was taken aback and asked anxiously, "What happened to Li Tianci's parents?"
