Facing the old man's anger at Chongguan, Chen Mingyuan just listened quietly, and only said after the old man finished venting: "Grandpa, I know what you said, Hong Yuanshan left me a fire pit, but I have to ......jump into this fire pit."

"You're just going to be honest! You don't have to jump anywhere! ”

The old man waved his hand, and said angrily: "I'm still alive, even if I can't do it, and your uncles and aunts, the big things in the family, it's not your turn to twist the gods and ghosts, just take care of your own affairs!" He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Besides, I also adopted your opinion before, and I have been cautiously separating the family business from Ren Tianping's side in the past two years, although this incident has an impact on us, but I don't have to worry about it at all!" ”

Chen Mingyuan was silent for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Is it really not a big impact, grandpa?" ”

The old man was stunned, and his lips twitched unconsciously.

He really didn't know what to say after that.

As Chen Mingyuan said, as soon as Ren Tianping falls, it will definitely have an impact on the Chen family, and it is not small!

Today, the Chen family is clearly distinguished from the Tianyi Group in the business field, but in the political field, no matter how much it is whitewashed, it is in vain, after all, the connection between the Chen family and the China Shipping Department cannot be cut off at all!

As a traditional force within the Zhonghai system, the Chen family has ushered in an unprecedented golden period of development with the help of He Xiangdong's accession to power since the nineties, and the entire Zhonghai system has ushered in an unprecedented golden period of development, and the interest network has rapidly extended to major fields.

It can be said conclusively that without the covering of the sea system, there would never be the prosperity and strength of the Chen family today!

If the relationship is like this, how can it be separated?!

In view of this, this time, the two major political groups have joined forces to take the Tianyi Group, and next, the Zhonghai system will inevitably be greatly damaged, and there will inevitably be many internal variables.

The Chen family is in it, and they can't retreat, they can only try their best to protect themselves, but the premise of this self-protection is that the old man is still alive, to put it mildly, once the old man is gone, the Chen family is likely to repeat the mistake of Ren Tianping and become a chopping block in the eyes of the upper class!

At that time, it is inevitable that the tragedy of the broken family in the previous life will be repeated!

Looking at the old man's crumbling old age, Chen Mingyuan knew that there was not much time left for himself and his family, "Grandpa, let me do what I can for this family." ”

A look of struggle flashed on the old man's face, and he said in a complicated tone: "You really don't have to be like this...... With the Mu family, you will be fine. ”

"But I'm fine, everyone else has to be okay." Chen Mingyuan said indifferently: "I have always been a part of this family, I can't do it if I stay out of the matter, you have sheltered me from the wind and rain for so many years, now it's time for me to repay you......" Seeing that the old man still had to advise, Chen Mingyuan stood up by himself and smiled suddenly: "Besides, none of the men of our Chen family are cowards who are greedy for life and afraid of death, you are like this, my father is like this, and I am no exception, even if this time there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of me, I will also jump over, no matter whether it is Hong Yuanshan or anyone, I can't help me!" ”

After speaking, Chen Mingyuan bowed deeply, resolutely turned around and walked out.

Looking at the unruly figure disappearing between the cracks in the door, the old man lowered his eyebrows, then slowly raised his head, was silent for a long time, and smiled miserably: "It's all fate......

…………

Going down to the staircase, Yang Xiuning was already waiting there, except for sighing, he didn't say much, "The noodles are cooked, eat them while they're hot." ”

Chen Mingyuan agreed, walked into the kitchen, there was a bowl of hot purse noodles on the dining table, sat down and picked up the chopsticks and took two bites, and said with a smile: "This taste, it's nostalgic." ”

Yang Xiuning followed up and said with a smile: "Yes, I haven't burned it for you for many years, last time, I remember that you were still a child." ”

Chen Mingyuan ate noodles and was silent, since then, his mother has devoted most of her time to work, occasionally getting along with herself, and basically linked to her studies, it is from then on that the relationship between mother and son has gradually cracked...... Fortunately, with the deepening of his experience, he gradually understood his mother's good intentions.

Yang Xiuning sat opposite, looked at him carefully, and said with a smile: "In a blink of an eye, you are such a big person, and in another twenty days, you should complete a lifelong event, it's really good......"

Chen Mingyuan's movements froze for a moment, put down the chopsticks, gently pressed the back of his mother's hand, and said with a smile: "I am married, I will be filial to you with Jiayin, and in another year or two, I will strive to let you hold your grandson." ”

"If you have this heart, I will be content." Yang Xiuning brushed his sideburns and smiled with emotion: "In fact, Mom has seen a lot of things and let go of a lot of things now, especially your father...... I can finally give him an explanation. As he spoke, his eyes immediately turned red.

Chen Mingyuan's heart twitched, and he hurriedly leaned over, helping his mother wipe away her tears while busy comforting.

"I'm really, I'm talking about happy events." Yang Xiuning choked up and sniffed, forced a smile, and said: "Mom knows that you have grown up and have your own judgment, and many things are far more clear and thorough than your family, and you do an excellent job, so Mom won't nag, in short, no matter what you decide next, Mom will support you unconditionally!" ”

Chen Mingyuan had mixed feelings, from beginning to end, his mother never asked anything, but obviously she understood her thoughts, and she didn't interfere but asked, just silently expressed her support.

Perhaps, as she said, she waited until she was fully mature, and she could finally watch herself face this chaotic world alone.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

"I'll go and open it, you go up and see grandpa, he was so angry with me just now."

Chen Mingyuan let his mother sit, got up and walked to the entrance, opened the door, under the starry sky, Cen Ruohan stood at the door, under the backdrop of the rose-colored suspender dress, the pretty figure was infinitely beautiful, and a pair of slender phoenix eyes flashed with light.

"I guessed you'd be back here first."

Cen Ruohan's delicate moon face bloomed with a smile, with a bit of faint complexity......

"I guess you'll find it here, too."

Chen Mingyuan laughed, hesitated, pointed to the courtyard outside, and said, "Go out and talk, grandpa is resting inside." ”

Cen Ruohan nodded, and when he opened the door, he walked side by side with him to the courtyard.

Tonight's night is very good, without the obstruction of clouds, you can clearly see the starry sky, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, with the cicadas in the grass and the rustling of the treetops, a qiē looks extraordinarily vast and long.

"Say, and think of some earth-shattering idea." Cen Ruohan walked in a dignified manner, and asked without turning his head, "Uncle's body and bones are like that, don't let him worry about the old man anymore." ”

"If I don't do anything, he'll just worry more." Chen Mingyuan smiled and said lightly: "I think about it, let's go to Yongcheng next, there is a vacancy for the district head." ”

"Yongcheng?!" Cen Ruohan stopped suddenly, turned his head, and his pretty face was already full of panic, and asked, "You're not faint, are you?" This bone eye also ran to Yongcheng, where it is now a fire pit! ”

"I know it all, but I still have to go." Chen Mingyuan did not change his color.

"You!" Cen Ruohan was annoyed and persuaded himself: "What are you thinking? Now is really not the time for you to be strong, Ren Tianping has already been loaded, do you still want to ......"

"Don't say it, aunt." Chen Mingyuan interrupted directly, "I have decided, no matter what the result is, I will bear it with all my might." ”

"What do you bear? In case something happens, it's not just me and your mom who are in a hurry! You stinky boy! Cen Ruohan was angry for a while, and couldn't help but raise his hand to make a gesture to give him a burst, but seeing the decisiveness in his eyes, Qian's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, and after a while, he couldn't help but be deflated, shook his head and said helplessly: "Alas...... Your wings are stiff, and no one can stop you from flying wherever you want to go. ”

Chen Mingyuan half-jokingly said: "No matter how much I can fly, I can't escape from your Wuzhi Mountain." He turned his head and looked around the courtyard of the old mansion, and said with feeling: "When I was a child, every time I was tired of studying and wanted to sneak out, I was blocked by you. ”

Cen Ruohan was a little in a trance, and then smiled brightly, "I didn't say anything, maybe I complained more about my aunt in my heart at that time, right?" She brushed her hair, which was a little scattered by the summer wind, and looked at every scene of the old mansion, and that bright and pure time seemed to be so close yesterday.

It's just that the introverted and shy boy in my memory has long since drifted away.

After a while, Chen Mingyuan went straight to the point again: "Auntie, go back and help me bring a message to my uncle, don't be obsessed and obsessed." ”

Cen Ruohan was silent.

It is said that power is easy to get lost, which is accurately reflected in Cen Ruiwen's body, a few years ago, Cen Ruiwen was humble and polite to both relatives and colleagues, and most of them treated different opinions as kind; But since Cen Ruiwen took full charge of Zhonghai City and was promoted to a senior member of the political bureau, he has gradually deviated from the track, and his self-use can be said to be the most appropriate interpretation now, and even the mention of Old Man Chen is often not very reassuring.

Cen Ruohan has worried more than once that the expansion of the desire for power will make his father completely go astray!

"Ren Tianping is just the beginning, and those people in the Forbidden City now have far greater ambitions than what we see so far!" Chen Mingyuan said word by word: "Don't forget, when He Xiangdong first entered Beijing, not many people were optimistic about him, and those old qualified bigwigs were even more disdainful, thinking that he was just a transitional puppet, but what happened later, those who were in the ascendant were taken down by He Xiangdong one after another, and became a stepping stone, and the principle of shooting the first bird is actually applicable to anyone at any time and to anyone......"

"Don't say it, Mingyuan!" Cen Ruohan's face flashed with a look of struggle, Xiu fists clenched and clenched, and finally said solemnly: "I understand what you mean...... My dad, I will not hesitate to persuade you, you can make such a big sacrifice for the family, and I will not let him have anything to do. ”

After a pause, she raised her eyes, looked at Chen Mingyuan fixedly, suddenly took two steps forward, wrapped her arms around his waist with open hands, buried her head in his chest, and whispered: "And you, promise aunt, you must come back safely...... Also, happy newlywed, stinky boy. ”

Chen Mingyuan was stunned, but unfortunately, he didn't see the crystal bright tears that crossed in the vast night.
