Chapter 262: Back
Chapter 262: Back to Sioux City
Through questioning, Chu Fei finally understood the whole story.
Chu Fei is not mistaken, Ximenlu's father Ximenhan is indeed the leader of a state-owned enterprise, and he is now, but in recent years, he has been marginalized because of his exclusion, although his work is much easier, but Ximenhan, who is used to holding power, can't accept this reality, first he drank heavily, and then he didn't know how to indulge in gambling.
But fortunately, Simon Han also knows how to be measured, the amount of gambling is not very large, and occasionally counting money will not affect the family.
But this morning, Chen Shan called Ximenlu, but told her that Ximenhan owed a gambling debt, the specific amount was not said, but from the tone, it can be heard that there must be a lot, which is also the reason why Ximenlu is uneasy, with her understanding of her parents, especially her mother's understanding, if it is not too large, she will definitely not call herself, her parents' salary over the years has also accumulated a lot of pensions, plus their filial piety in recent years, millions of them dare not say, tens of millions are definitely there.
Chu Fei also frowned after hearing this, his thoughts were the same as Ximenlu's.
"And what do you want to do now?"
"I want to go back and see how much money my dad has lost, and by the way, persuade him to see if he can quit gambling. Simonlu frowned.
"I'll be with you. Chu Fei nodded.
"What, are you going with me?" Ximenlu looked at Chu Fei in surprise, she was indeed a little upset, she only wanted to find someone to discuss when she called Chu Fei before, but she didn't expect Chu Fei to go back with her.
"I haven't seen my uncle and aunt in years, so I just went to visit. Chu Fei said with a smile.
Ximenlu looked at Chu Fei suspiciously, Chu Fei's excuse was too bad, and the current situation of his home was not suitable for visiting.
"The ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws, we all live together now, and I always want to see your parents. Without waiting for Ximenlu to speak, Chu Fei smiled again, but this time it was a bad laugh.
"Nonsense, who lives with you?" Simonlu blushed, but the expression on his face didn't look like he was angry, but a little shy.
Chu Fei smiled evilly, when he came back from the East China Sea this time, he found that he cared about Ximenlu, plus he was worried that Ximenlu would have an accident and ran out in the middle of the night to save Ximenlu from Ji Dong's hands, so that Chu Fei completely understood that he had already regarded Ximenlu as his own woman, and even if it wasn't for Chen Xiaoman's inopportune phone call, the two of them might have rolled into the same bed by now.
Chu Fei never thought that he was a hypocrite who only drank a scoop of weak water, he would not force it, but if the other party really liked him, he would not refuse, he would only cherish the other party more and try to give the other party happiness.
At this time, knowing that something happened to Ximenlu's family and that it was involved in gambling, of course he would not rest assured that Ximenlu would go back alone, and at the same time he didn't know if it was a psychological effect, Chu Fei always felt that this matter was a little strange.
Simonlu's parents lived in Sioux City, and Ji Dongke also lived in Sioux City that year.
After the last cruise incident, Ji Dong disappeared and never appeared again, and there was no movement, which made Chu Fei and Blood Fox feel uneasy.
This time it won't be the means of that winter, right?
Quite possibly.
Chu Fei guessed in her heart, but she didn't tell Ximenlu, which only made her worried.
Ximenlu didn't know that Chu Fei had regarded her as a private item, although she was surprised by Chu Fei's actions, she was very grateful in her heart, and there was an inexplicable excitement, after all, now she really needs someone to share, and Chu Fei is undoubtedly a good confidant.
That's it.
The two no longer hesitated, didn't even eat lunch, and drove Simmenlu's BMW directly to Sioux City.
Compared with the distance between Kunshi and the East China Sea, Kunshi is closer to Sioux City, and it takes less than an hour in total, Chu Fei and the others drove into Sioux City, and then according to Ximenlu's instructions, they did not drive into the downtown area, but finally stopped on a riverside.
Seeing Chu Fei's stunned expression, Ximenlu explained: "This is the famous Qili Shantang River in Sioux City, which belongs to the old city, and was bought by my parents to prepare for the elderly, because the environment here is the most quiet. ā
As he spoke, he got out of the car and walked to an arch not far away.
Chu Fei also followed, looked up at the antique wooden arch in front of him, and said with emotion: "Your parents are really rich. It's not that Chu Fei is making a fuss, it's that he can see at a glance that the courtyard in front of him is not that kind of narrow house, but a real small mansion, and it is said that the Sucheng garden is a must, Chu Fei didn't expect Ximenlu's parents to have one, although it is much smaller.
"You think too much, this house has been bought for almost 30 years, and I was not born at that time, and it is said that it was tens of thousands of yuan. Ximenlu knew what Chu Fei was sighing about, and glanced at her.
Chu Fei, he found that he really thought too much, the Huaxia real estate industry thirty years ago had not been developed at all, but tens of thousands of yuan was also astronomical at that time, Ximenlu's parents could buy the same rich people here, of course, if it is placed now, just looking at this curtain, Chu Fei estimates that it is unknown whether he can buy it for tens of millions.
Ximenlu was already knocking on the door at this time, and then waiting, but he was not idle, but looked back at Chu Fei and said, "Chu Fei, don't talk nonsense when you go in later." ā
"What nonsense?" Chu Fei pretended to be stupid.
"You-" Simon Lu glared at him angrily, "You know what I'm talking about, ask knowingly." ā
"Are you talking about our cohabitation? It's true, and I'm not talking nonsense. Chu Fei said with a smile.
"It's all about nonsense, you also said that my parents are very traditional people, and I'm afraid of scaring them. Ximenlu looked at Chu Fei angrily.
Chu Fei was a little stunned, what did Ximenlu mean by this, he was just afraid that his parents would be scared, but he wasn't angry?
Ximenlu also realized that his words were speechless, and he was anxious for a while: "Anyway, you are not allowed to talk nonsense, otherwise I will deduct your salary." Ximenlu was also out of line, and even said the threat of deducting wages.
"Then what do I say? I'm being honest, do you want me to lie to your parents?" Chu Fei looked embarrassed.
"Chu Fei!" Ximenlu gritted his teeth, and bit his lip hard, as if he was making a fierce expression, but in Chu Fei, it was also indescribably charming, and it was even more like he was coquettishly seducing himself, making Chu Fei have the urge to go up and take a bite.
Beauty is beauty, and even being angry is so tempting.
Sensing that Ximenlu seemed to be really annoyed, Chu Fei quickly withdrew his gaze: "Don't worry, I promise not to talk nonsense." ā
"Hmph, anyway, if you dare to talk nonsense......"
Ximenlu was about to threaten Chu Fei for a few words, but he quickly closed his mouth, because at this time, there was a sound of footsteps coming from inside the door, and then the wooden door opened from the inside, and a middle-aged beauty wearing a light cyan cheongsam appeared at the door......
Although there was a hint of obvious exhaustion on the woman's face, it still could not hide her classical beauty......
"Mom!"
Simonlu walked up and shouted with a smile.
"Lulu, are you back?" The middle-aged classical beauty's eyes suddenly lit up, and she grabbed Ximenlu's hands in surprise, and at the same time saw Chu Fei behind her, and asked strangely: "This is-"
"He'sā"
Ximenlu was thinking about how to introduce Chu Fei, and Chu Fei had already introduced himself: "Hello Auntie, I am Ximenlu's driver." ā
"Driver?"
Chen Shan glanced at Chu Fei, then at her daughter, pursed her lips and smiled softly, obviously not believing this explanation, is it really a driver, dare to call her daughter's name?
Ximenlu was also speechless, she found that she really shouldn't have brought Chu Fei here, saying that it was okay for a colleague to say that it was a subordinate, but it was not true when she heard it.
"Come in, please, don't stand at the door. ā
Chen Shan belongs to the kind of real lady temperament, although it is strange, but she didn't ask, and warmly greeted the two of them into the door.
Walking into the arch Chu Fei was amazed again, this mansion is much more spacious than looking outside, plus the arch and archway, there are a total of three floors, no wonder it cost tens of thousands of dollars thirty years ago, this is really a small garden, although there is no flowing water, but there are rockeries and gardens, a few ancient trees that do not know the years are growing quietly in the corners, in addition to the corridors, small pavilions, this is the real Jiangnan classical architecture, walking in it, so that Chu Fei has a sense of time and space disorder......
This house is really good for the elderly, but the family lives too lonely, and it would be good if there were a few more hostesses.
Chu Fei was thinking about it while reading it, wondering if he would also get a house like this and bring a group of women to support the elderly in the future, this idea just came out and was pinched off, because it was not realistic at all, not to mention how many women he would have at that time, he couldn't say now, just simply putting different women together was a big problem, what if there was a fight? Who would you help?
This is not ancient times.
You can have three wives and four concubines.
Although many rich people and big people have more than one lover-lover-lover-woman outside, but after all, they don't see the light, except for a few ancient families in Hong Kong and Kowloon who still pursue the model of three wives and four concubines, and the wives and concubines get along very harmoniously, Chu Fei has not heard of any macho man who can bring all women together to live?
Ximenlu's parents live in the middle building, and after entering the main hall, Ximenlu couldn't wait to ask.
"Mom, how much does Dad owe?" asked Simonlu very directly.
"Don't be in a hurry to say this-" Chen Shan glanced at Chu Fei next to him, intentionally or unintentionally.
"Mom, Chu Fei is not an outsider, don't worry about him. Ximenlu was anxious about business at this time, and said anxiously.
"Not an outsider?" Chen Shan looked at the two meaningfully......
"We-"
Simon Lu immediately knew that her words had been misunderstood by her mother, and her pretty face turned red......
Just about to explain, Chu Fei had already smiled and said: "Yes, Auntie, Ximenlu and I are not outsiders, this time we came back specifically for my uncle's matter, you can tell us in detail what the situation is, and see how to solve it." ā
