Chapter 346: Showdown
Qingfeng Mountain. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Ye Xiu sat alone on the top of Qingfeng Mountain, his eyes looking ahead in a daze, he had been sitting here for nearly an hour, not saying a word, except in a daze.
At this time, a fresh fragrant breeze hit Ye Xiu's nose, and then a beautiful woman wearing a long white dress and a blue coat sat beside him.
"Homesick?" Chen Mengyao asked softly.
"Yes, I'm homesick, I've been away from home for nearly a month, and I really miss them." The corners of Ye Xiu's mouth raised imperceptibly.
"I miss home, too, every day, but I can't come back." Chen Mengyao's eyelids drooped, and her expression was a little sad. There was silence.
After a long time, Ye Xiu said in a deep tone: "Meng Yao, we are not suitable. ”
Chen Mengyao was slightly stunned, as if she didn't expect Ye Xiu to talk to her in this tone, seeing Ye Xiu's depressed appearance, she had a trace of doubt, how could Ye Xiu seem to have changed as a person, and it made her feel a little strange, could it be that Ye Xiu had experienced some changes?
"What's not suitable?" Chen Mengyao pretended not to know.
"The bright city life is not suitable for me after all, blowing the wind in the mountains, walking in the fields, swimming in the water, beating two pheasants to eat when I am hungry, picking two wild fruits to eat when I am thirsty, and when I am bored, I go to compare speed with jackals and leopards, compare strength with wild bulls and bears, and I really have nothing to do, so I go to the wine gourd to ask for two glasses of magma wine to drink, brag about the mountains, and then practice a set of drunken boxing, how relaxed and happy, this is the life I want to live." Ye Xiu turned his head to look at Chen Mengyao, and said with a serious face: "There are too many vain fame and fortune in big cities, too much deceit, as big as doing one thing, as small as saying a word or even making an action, it has to go through some consideration, and the spirit is like wearing an invisible shackle, and this kind of restrained life is really too tiring." ”
"Martial arts all the way to pay attention to freedom, unrestrained, close to nature, feel the way of heaven, urban life is not suitable for people who are dedicated to the pursuit of the pinnacle of martial arts, and you are different, you were born in the city, live in the city, urban life has been integrated into your life, whether it is now or in the future, your life will be carried out in the city, which makes it difficult for us to intersect, just like people in two worlds, since this is the case, why not make a break early, the pursuit of a more suitable life for yourself?"
"Do you think I like city life?" Chen Mengyao sighed lightly and said: "I don't like it, I don't like it since I was a child, and I even hate urban life more than you, the wind blowing in the mountains, walking in the fields, this kind of relaxed and carefree life is what I yearn for, I am always looking forward to leaving this city full of dark and treacherous deeds, and going to live in the countryside and mountains without hustle and bustle, where I don't have to pretend or deceive, I can be the most authentic self." Ye Xiu, do you know, sometimes I really want to leave everything in the city behind and go to live in a village on a small island in the Bohai Sea. ”
"But you should understand that you can't leave all this behind, your roots are in the city, no matter how much you hate it, you can't cut off the connection with the city, you hold 40% of the company's shares, then you will become a rich woman with a net worth of more than 10 billion, and most importantly, this is the property left to you by your mother, how can you abandon it?"
"No, you're wrong." Chen Mengyao shook her head, "My mother did leave me a huge amount of money, a huge amount of money that I can't spend in my life, but it won't become everything in my life, I am the controller of money, not a slave of money, if I am led by money, what is the meaning of such a life?" ”
"Are you willing to give up such a large fortune?" Ye Xiu looked at Chen Mengyao with strange eyes.
Chen Mengyao looked up at the sky, looking at the white clouds floating in the sky, she said with a light smile: "In the past, my dream was very simple, that is, to take back the company, bring the culprit who killed my mother to justice, and develop the company to grow, but your appearance has shaken my concept, not that I don't want to explore the truth about my mother's murder, but after finding out the truth, I think my life should not be so monotonous and boring." ”
"I've asked myself countless times, is it really my dream to take back the company and then develop it into an international enterprise with hundreds of billions or even bigger? My answer is always no, because I hate the flattery between people, and the intrigue between the malls, which will make me very tired and hard, and even if I achieve this goal, I will not be able to get a little happiness from it, I will only feel endless exhaustion. ”
"When I was a child, my mother often told me that no matter what I do in the future, I must be happy and happy, and I must not force myself to do things, but what I plan to do is contrary to my mother's teachings, instead of pursuing happiness, I will abandon happiness forever, and let myself live a hard and painful life.
"Tens of billions of wealth, what a big number, it can allow me to live a luxurious life, it can allow me to do a lot of things, even if I don't do anything, I can live comfortably for a lifetime, but ......" Chen Mengyao changed her words and said quite self-deprecatingly: "It is difficult for me to be happy." ”
"I didn't think about this before, because I felt that my life had been set, and I could only go down this path, even if I couldn't get happiness in my life, I had to keep going, but now my mind has changed, because my life path has forked in the road, I no longer have only one choice, I can choose another path, that path can make my life easier and happier."
Chen Mengyao's tone paused, and then said a decision that surprised Ye Xiu: "Ye Xiu, I have already thought about it, when I find out the truth about my mother, I will use all the inherited property for charity, so that children who can't afford to go to school can go to school, so that the poor who can't eat enough can be fed, and the poor who can't afford to see a doctor can be treated, although I can't help everyone, but with so much money, I should be able to help many people." ”
Ye Xiu was completely speechless now, I don't know whether to admire Chen Mengyao, or to say that Chen Mengyao is stupid, it is not one million two million, nor one hundred and twenty million, but tens of billions of wealth, is she really willing to use it all for charity?
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Chen Mengyao turned her head to stare at Ye Xiu, and without waiting for Ye Xiu to answer, she replied by herself: "I also think I'm stupid, but apart from doing this, I can't think of another way to spend money that can not only make me happy and happy, but also allow me to get rid of this heavy burden and pursue the life I like." Tens of billions of dollars of wealth are huge, but it is a heavy burden, as long as I carry it for a day, I will not be able to get free, I can not pursue the life I yearn for, so I decided to unload this burden and use it in a more meaningful place, I think my mother will also support my decision. ”
"Your mother is right, as long as you are happy and happy, you can do whatever you want, money is to bring happiness to people, if money becomes a burden, so that people can't be happy, then what's the use of money?" Ye Xiu agrees with Chen Mengyao's idea, because he also has a very light view of money, it is naturally good to have money, and he can still live a chic life without money, he will not do something against his will for a little money, on the contrary, if he can make himself comfortable, he doesn't mind giving up money and other things outside his body.
"Ye Xiu, if I finish the matter here in Jianghai City, would you like to take me back to the island?" Chen Mengyao stared at Ye Xiu with beautiful eyes, and asked with an extremely serious expression.
Ye Xiu fell silent suddenly, his mood was extremely complicated, he understood Chen Mengyao's intentions, and he understood it very early, but what could he do? He couldn't give Chen Mengyao any promises, he couldn't give Chen Mengyao any results, the only thing he could do was to pretend to be stupid and stunned, deliberately alienate Chen Mengyao, and let her suffer less harm.
Seeing that Ye Xiu didn't say a word, a look of disappointment flashed in the depths of Chen Mengyao's eyes, but she quickly calmed down and said to Ye Xiu: "Don't talk about this, you can answer me again if you think about it, and I'll tell you one more thing." ”
"What's the matter?" Ye Xiu asked.
"Actually, I ......" Chen Mengyao was interrupted by Ye Xiu's mobile phone ringtone before she finished half a sentence.
Ye Xiu smiled apologetically, then took out his mobile phone, and when he saw that the caller ID was Bai Ningxue's name, he took the phone without hesitation: "Miss Bai, is there something wrong with me?" ”
"Ye Xiu, are you free at night?" Bai Ningxue asked.
"Free." Ye Xiu nodded.
"I'm going to hold a party tonight, I plan to get acquainted with some outstanding people in Jianghai City, I want to invite you to join me, can you come?" Bai Ningxue said.
"I am very honored to participate in Miss Bai's party." Ye Xiu didn't refuse, if he were someone else, he would probably refuse, now he was really in no mood to attend any party, but Bai Ningxue's invitation was not easy to refuse, after all, people gave him so much help, if he refused to participate in even a party, it would be too unconscionable.
"Well, the party will be held at the Star Hotel, remember to come early." Bai Ningxue chuckled lightly and added, "By the way, I also want to invite Miss Chen Mengyao to the party, can you help me convey it to her?" ”
"Well, no problem." Ye Xiu temporarily moved the phone away, and then conveyed Bai Ningxue's words to Chen Mengyao.
"I accept Miss Bai's invitation." Chen Mengyao didn't hesitate too much, she agreed, listening to the tone of Ye Xiu's words, she knew that this Miss Bai was not an ordinary person, and she seemed to have a lot to do with Ye Xiu, she was interested in meeting such a woman.
After conveying Chen Mengyao's reply, Ye Xiu hung up the phone, and Chen Mengyao's question followed: "Who is Miss Bai?" ”
"Her name is Bai Ningxue, she is a strange woman, I was able to rescue Liu Qinxin smoothly, she gave me a lot of help." Ye Xiu replied truthfully.
Chen Mengyao didn't ask any further, just listening to Ye Xiu's words, she analyzed a lot of information, which was enough for her to have a preliminary understanding of Bai Ningxue, and if she wanted to know more about it, she had to meet Bai Ningxue herself. (To be continued.) )
