Chapter 275: Suddenly

The whole book .,The fastest update of the latest chapter of the housewife's counterattack!

Angel's confidence made me put my heart back in my stomach and stayed here for three days. In the end, he left his contact information, bought a thangka that he was willing to give, and left with more than three times the price he had offered and left.

We first rented a car from the locals, then arrived in Lhasa and finally flew back to Beijing.

On the way back, Angel asked me, "Tao Ran, what do you think of this?"

I asked, "What do you mean?"

She smiled and said: "For example, appearance, background, character, from the past few days of getting along, what kind of judgment do you have on him, use your social experience to talk about it." ”

I laughed too, and the fact that Angel was able to ask that showed that she knew something about the man's background. It's just that from the very beginning, she sold me off and didn't reveal the bottom line. In the past few days, we have lived in the same yard as the man, and we have often chatted, so we know a little bit about each other. I thought for a moment and said to her, "My judgment may not be accurate, just listen to it." ”

She squinted at me and smiled, "Old rivers and lakes will say that." ”

I smiled and said to her, "This man is not from an ordinary family, but if he can spend twenty years in that place, he must have broken with his family." The things in his room are all slightly more ordinary collections, and as for the real masterpieces, there must be another place to store them. And the big house he lives in looks very big from the outside, but after entering it, the space is not as big as expected, and there should be a secret room. He has a good character, and he is obsessed with collecting, so he must be the kind of person who is very affectionate and sexual, his mind is very pure, and he has a strong tendon, and he will do what he thinks, and he does not ask for the recognition and support of others. ”

After listening to me, Angel gave me a thumbs up and said, "It's not wrong to say that you are an old fox, and you basically guessed correctly." It's about his identity, and your guess is slightly biased. Telling his family history can scare you. ”

"I really can't imagine that if the family is particularly powerful, it seems that they will not agree with the child to love one thing and become obsessed. I said.

"But his situation is different. Angel lowered her voice and said to me, "His surname is Duan." ”

I immediately thought of Duan Jingchen, and wondered if it had something to do with Duan Jingchen?

Angel also saw what I was thinking, slapped my hand and said, "Don't think about the person you know with the surname Duan, this surname is also a big surname, but which one is the most famous in China?"

"Dali Duan's family, Duan's lord. I said it in passing.

An Qi was completely speechless at me this time, and stroked her forehead and said, "Eldest sister, you have seen too much martial arts." ”

I really couldn't think of any other celebrities with the surname Duan, so I simply confessed to her and said, "Don't sell Guanzi, I really can't think of it." ”

An Qi wrote a name in the palm of my hand, I was really shocked after figuring out what it was, I really didn't expect that this Uncle Duan, who looked like an ascetic who had entered the world, was actually this kind of family background. To put it simply, his father is a person with a higher status than He Xiao's father.

He just didn't want his family to sponsor him and use the money he earned to live like this. Angel said again.

That's where she says, and I'll get it all in.

This person, whom I only know by the surname Duan, was also a stir-maker in the era of my start-up, and his company should have been founded a few years before my KB, and he was already a hegemon when I was just starting out. It is the first financial consulting company in China, and Luo Xiaotian and He Xiao are all in the same line. At that time, he rose rapidly, and at his peak, he managed hundreds of billions of capital in his hands.

Later, he suddenly disappeared, at the height of his prime.

No one knows where he went, and no one knows why he didn't do it, and shut down such a good and big company. After he disappeared, there were many rumors about him in the mall, some people said that his money at that time was illegal and was found by the regulatory department, in order to protect his family, so he returned the money and people went in. Some people say that he absconded with the money, but they haven't seen any news about him running away.

If you think about it, it has been less than twenty years since he disappeared, and it should have been fifteen years.

I was a little surprised, and asked Anqi, "How did you find him?"

"I have my network. "And I know that his dad is in dire need of money lately, because he is about to change his term." However, their family doesn't seem to have enough money. ”

"You're pretty well informed. I said.

Angel smiled: "It's just to rely on being well-informed to eat, can I not think of more ways to sell some news." You can take care of how you came to be, as long as it's authentic and reliable. If you like to eat eggs, you have to see if the hen that lays the eggs looks good. ”

I was amused by her words: "Okay, don't ask. But it's obviously a pity that this time it seems to have run away in vain again. ”

Angel patted the scroll in his hand: "This is progress, it turns out that he is something, even if it is a casual ashtray, he will not come out." ”

"Are the ashtrays antique?" I asked.

"It's a metaphor, it's not fun if you're serious. Angel hugged the thangka and said, "I'm sleeping, I can't sleep in that place these days, I'm sleeping to death every day, don't wake me up on the road." ”

"Okay," I replied, and put on the blindfold.

"That's right. She patted me up again and said, "This time you're here, it's a mascot, don't take it too seriously." I'll take care of the rest, so you don't have to think about it so much. ”

"Understand, believe in your strength. I said.

She nodded confidently at me, then re-armed herself and closed her eyes to sleep.

After returning to Beijing, although I was skeptical about whether this matter would be successful, it did not dampen Anqi's enthusiasm on the surface. Characters like He Xiaoluo Xiaotian are never in a hurry about money, they are good at keeping their own back. In terms of means and ability, as well as fame, Duan Yao is even stronger than the two of them.

Would such a person be financially embarrassed because he likes something, and would he sell his collection for money?

I don't believe it.

However, my disbelief did not dampen Angel's enthusiasm. Her plan for the next auction theme is in full swing, and she is doing the early plan alone, in order not to show the news. When the collection is in hand, she will let the other staff members participate. In this respect, she is much more cautious than I am.

In the course of doing this, a week and a half passed quickly.

I looked at the memo and knew that Luo Xiaotian would be back tomorrow, so I deliberately discussed with Fang Tian early and asked him to stay with me for two days after returning to Beijing.

Second, I calculated the right time to pick up Luo Xiaotian at the airport, the airport broadcast said that his flight was forty minutes late, Fang Tian and I glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "I knew that I wouldn't run all the way on the road just now." ”

encountered a traffic jam on the way here, Fang Tian drove my car all the way on the emergency lane, and then I don't know if I was photographed by the electronic eye. Now it seems that Bai is in a hurry.

However, since I came, there was no reason to go back, I looked at the time, there were still two hours before he landed, and then they picked up the luggage, it is estimated that it will be at least three hours.

"Let's go have a coffee. "I propose to Fang Tian.

He looked at the time and agreed, and the two of us sat down at the nearest coffee shop, preparing to pick up Luo Xiaotian and Fang Qian at the exit after the plane landed.

Fang Tian chatted with me while drinking, talking about interesting things about his mother and Luo Xiaotian together, and finally said: "Sister, I think my mother is a lot younger now, this is probably the so-called power of love." ”

I smiled too, and I found out about that. As long as a woman finds true love and has someone who truly loves her, she will immediately be much younger.

The time finally came, and Fang Tian and I returned to the exit.

Finally, seeing Fang Qian from a distance, Fang Tian waved his hand to her, but when she saw us, her face was expressionless, and she wore a pair of big sunglasses on her face.

I searched around her, but I didn't see Luo Xiaotian's shadow, so I couldn't help asking, "What about Luo Xiaotian? Why isn't he next to your mother?"

"Strange, I didn't see him either. Fang Tian was also a little puzzled.

Just as we were talking, Fang Qian walked up to the two of us step by step, she didn't pull her luggage, she was holding a box in both hands.

"Mom, what about Dad?" Fang Tian asked.

Since he asked, I won't open my mouth.

Fang Qian plucked her eyes with one hand, and the other was still holding the box in her hand. I saw that her eyes were swollen into peaches under the glasses.

"This is your dad. She said.

Fang Tian and I didn't understand what she said? What is this my father? I looked at the box in her hand, and my head buzzed.

Because I saw Luo Xiaotian's photo on the box.

He was wearing a pink casual shirt and beige trousers, smiling against the covered bridge by the sea, and the corners of his mouth and eyes were fluttering.

"Mom, what do you mean by that?" Fang Tian looked more shocked than me.

My body began to shake, I always felt like a dream, looking at the box in Fang Qian's hand but I couldn't believe it was real.

This incident was too sudden, was it a prank by him?

Luo Xiaotian has always been the character of an old naughty boy, could it be that he was hiding in the shadows and deliberately watching Fang Tian's reaction to his death? I began to search around for a place where Luo Xiaotian could hide.

"Your father suddenly got an infectious disease over there, and I told you that it was too late, and it took four hours from the time he found it to the time he died. The local government was afraid that the epidemic would spread, so they chose to be cremated immediately......" Fang Qian couldn't cry.

I've heard that the epidemic over there is a virus similar to a cold, and it only takes a few days from discovery to uncontrollable, and once it is discovered, it is basically at an advanced stage and cannot be controlled. However, the news says it was in the outlying areas, not in Cairo.

"I don't believe it. I said.

Fang Qian stared at me with red and swollen eyes and said, "Tao Ran, this is true, your father really passed away due to illness." ”

I stared at her, judging every word she said.

After Fang Qian said this, she suddenly leaned back, and the whole person fell out, if it weren't for Fang Tian's quick eyes, Fang Qian would definitely fall to the ground.

"Tao Ran, take my father's ashes quickly, I want to take my mother to the hospital. Fang Tian quickly calmed down.

At times like these, I have to be calm.

I held Luo Xiaotian's urn, stared at his photo on the box seriously, and sat in Fang Tian's co-pilot seat indifferently, while Fang Qian was already lying in the back seat, and Fang Tian fixed her with a seat belt.

"Fang Tian, this is a joke. I said.

He stared straight ahead, as if he hadn't heard me, and after a long while, he said, "Tao Ran, accept the facts." ”

The city of Beijing was familiar and unfamiliar in front of me, and I couldn't have imagined that Luo Xiaotian would die in this way. I don't know when the tears started to flow, and by the time I arrived at the hospital, I had already shed my face.

Fang Tian glanced at me, and didn't expect me to help, so he carried Fang Qian to the emergency room.

I followed behind him with Luo Xiaotian's ashes, watching him pay Fang Qian for hospitalization, and then the nurse pushed Fang Qian away. Finally, we sat outside the emergency room, and Fang Tian had time to come and see me.

He put his hands on my shoulders and looked at it for a long time, sighed and said, "Tao Ran, recognize the reality, my father passed away due to illness." You have seen how bad this disease is, you have also seen it on the news. Mom didn't let us go, and there was a reason, everything happened too suddenly. Now that it's like this, I hope to wait for my mom to wake up and you don't ask her anything. If there's anything you want to know, I'll ask, okay? In the face of you, she may feel a lot of guilt in her heart, please let her go. ”

His words were reasonable, and I couldn't refuse, so I had to nod.

After a long time, the door of the emergency room opened, and the doctor said that Fang Qian did not have any problems, but her body was relatively weak and needed bed rest, and if she didn't want to be hospitalized, she could go. However, Fang Tian insisted that Fang Qian be hospitalized, and I had no choice but to agree.

Fang Qian woke up and asked to see me.

I walked in with Luo Xiaotian's urn, she saw the box in my arms at first sight, and then covered her mouth and cried. I looked at her, she was really sad, and she couldn't see the element of acting.

I was also silently crying, and I didn't have the heart to persuade her not to cry.

I just felt a lot of pain in my heart, the only man in the world who was good to me and had no purpose, just left. After he left, I didn't have a dad anymore. Even if it's such an irresponsible father, I'm gone.

The more I thought about it, the more sad I became, and the more tears flowed.

Fang Qian and I couldn't speak, we were speechless, and we kept crying.

Fang Tian, who had been waiting outside, couldn't bear it anymore, and directly pushed the door and walked in, seeing that Fang Qian and I were crying, he was a little anxious.

"Tao Ran, my father died, and my mother was even more sad, you don't always ask questions. None of us want our dad to die. "He questioned me without asking.

I was stunned at first, and then chilled.

It turns out that no matter how much we look like a pair of brothers and sisters on the surface, when it comes to critical moments, I am still an outsider. In his eyes, he still doesn't see me as family. If he had a little more trust in me, he would have known that I wouldn't ask for details about Luo Xiaotian's death after he had only told me.

I have a lot of doubts and a lot of things to know, but I also know that Fang Qian and Luo Xiaotian have a good relationship, and she doesn't want him to leave.

His departure was too sudden for all of us.

When he was on video with me a few days ago, he was still such a fresh person, and now it has only been more than a week, and he can only lie in such a small box.

"Fang Tian, Tao Ran didn't say anything, you are not allowed to scold your sister. Fang Qian held back her tears and scolded him.

Fang Tian looked at me, his face flushed, and he said curtly: "Sister, I'm sorry, I just care too much about my mother." ”

"It's okay, I know. I said.

The next thing is that Fang Tian is busy, he contacted a company that specializes in white things, and prepared to hold Luo Xiaotian's funeral very grandly, I heard him hang up the phone, but stopped him: "Fang Tian, I don't think like you about this matter." ”

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"When my father was alive, he told me that if he really left, everything would be simple, no funeral, no memorial service, no commemorative activities. Inform a few relatives and scatter his ashes into the sea together. He hopes to go to the Indian Ocean. I said.

Fang Tian looked at me: "Sister, when did Dad say this, why did you never say it in front of me?"

I just remembered that this was what he said when he told me that he was going to make a will, and Fang Tian didn't know him at that time, let alone Fang Qian's shadow.

"It was before you showed up, when Bean Bao wasn't sick. I said, "At that time, he was preparing to make a will, and at the same time he said this." ”

"Then, has the last will been made?" Fang Tian asked, "If there is a will, we will do what he said in his will, if not, I will not listen to you, if it is really from simple to like that, others will think that we treat our father harshly." ”

"I don't know. I said.

"He made a will, and he is at his lawyer's office, so you can call and ask the lawyer to come over. Now the lawyer is in Hong Kong. Fang Qian interrupted the two of us and speculated.

Fang Tian responded and immediately went to make a call.

They were also shocked when they heard that Luo Xiaotian had passed away, but out of professional cultivation, they immediately agreed to come over. He said on the phone: "When Mr. Luo made the will, he said that he needed to read the will only when his three children were present and the mothers of the three children were also present. ”

"Okay, I'll arrange it as soon as possible. Fang Tian said.

He hung up the phone, looked at me and said, "I'll notify Sheng Qingjin, and at the same time get the cub over, you can inform your mother." ”

I nodded, thinking there was nothing wrong with this arrangement.

I calmed down a bit, and then walked outside to call Tian Qingqing.

She didn't know what was going on, she thought I was just calling to greet me every day, and said happily: "Tao Ran, how are you doing, thinking of your mother? I told you, if you are not busy, you can come to Singapore to find me, the air in Beijing is not good." I now pay attention to the weather forecast in Beijing every day, and I want to remind you to add or subtract clothes, but I feel that I am a little redundant. You're such a big person, and you still need me to tell you?"

At this, she laughed to herself.

The kind of daily life she said on the phone made me cry, because I cried so much that I couldn't speak in my voice, and even my breathing became thicker. Tian Qingqing finally heard my strange appearance on the phone, stopped and asked, "Tao Ran, what's wrong?

I choked up for a long time before I said in a hoarse voice, "Mom, Dad died." ”

"Ahh

I screamed a few more times that no one was talking to me, afraid that Tian Qingqing would faint if she couldn't stand it. At this time, I realized that I was too anxious just now, and I should have talked to Liu Mingyue first. Thinking of this, I hung up the phone and called Liu Mingyue, and she answered the phone after three rings, and asked anxiously: "What did you say to your mother just now?" She almost fainted in a hurry, and is now taking medicine. ”

"It's that I'm not thinking it through. I paused, "Luo Xiaotian died. ”

There was silence on the phone, Liu Mingyue's breathing became lighter, and after a while she asked, "When is it, what is the reason?"

"In Cairo, I contracted a sudden illness, and it took four hours from the time I was found to the time I died, and the local government was afraid of the spread of the epidemic and demanded that he be cremated immediately. Originally, I was going to his home today, but I rushed to the airport and received Fang Qian holding his urn. ”

When I talked about the process again, I still cried and choked up several times.

After Liu Mingyue heard this, she said to me: "I know, as for whether my mother will go, I'm not sure." In the past two years, my mother has had some problems with her blood pressure and heart, and her mood swings can't be too big. My father and I are very worried, this time Luo Xiaotian's death ......" Speaking of this, she paused and said, "However, I think I will definitely go, my father's temper can't be controlled." You don't have to be in a hurry. I'll calm my mother's emotions first, and then I'll set a time with you. ”

"Okay, please take care of it. I said.

"I will. She said yes and hung up.

The first person to rush over was Sheng Qingjin, who was still accompanied by Si Jianlian, who was holding their child in her hand. Luo Ziqian hadn't seen Sheng Qingjin much in the past few years, and he was also faint after seeing her. However, Sheng Qingjin stretched out his hand to him with red eyes, wanting to hug him, he turned around and dodged it, went over and took Fang Qian's hand and said, "Aunt Fang." ”

Fang Qian squatted down and patted Luo Ziqian's back and said, "It's okay." ”

Sheng Qingjin was still not far away, half-bent over and said to Luo Ziqian: "Baby, it's your mother, why don't you know your mother?"

Luo Ziqian didn't speak, and stood stubbornly.

"When will you read the will?" Sheng Qingjin saw that Luo Ziqian was not interested in her, so he simply put away his loving expression and asked Fang Tian directly.

Luo Xiaotian's lawyer had already rushed over from Hong Kong, and when he heard her ask, he knew her identity, so he said: "You need to be present with the mother of the three children to read the will, so wait a little longer." ”

Sheng Qingjin snorted coldly, turned around and sat down on the chair next to him.
