Chapter 69: Secrets
In the seaside town in the early morning, there is a faint salty smell, mixed with the fishy smell from nowhere, and the smell is cold and real. Zhang Zimei accompanied Fan Chengguang to slowly turn around, the location of the B&B and the bar is not bad, the use of the old house renovation, although the scale is not large, but the transportation is convenient, quiet in the middle of noisy. However, because on this rock and hillside, a lot of money was also spent.
Zhang Zimei is also from the town, but unlike the local fishermen, her father never got on the boat because of his poor health, so the couple worked with a relative from another town to process pickled products, and rarely lived here. It wasn't until Zhang Zimei, who had a bit of business vision, that she took a fancy to the town's tourism prospects, so she rented and bought an old house, opened a bar and a homestay, and handed it over to her unemployed younger brother to operate. Now it's just opened, and business is pretty average.
"I'm afraid this money is going to be wasted." She said with some concern.
"No, it won't. There will only be more and more B&Bs here, but your home will always be the best. Fan Chengguang looked at the appearance of this seemingly quaint but high-grade homestay.
"I listen to you and spend a lot of money on decoration, but my old man also said that I had a nervous attack and spent money indiscriminately." Zhang Zimei knocked on his head, a little ambiguous.
"If you can't run a business, sell it to me." Fan Chengguang was not annoyed and stopped her shoulder.
Zhang Zimei smiled, if he didn't have any requirements for this man, he would always look gentle and give people a feeling of warmth and love. If you take it seriously, it will only look ridiculous and stupid. In the end, it's just that I'm not happy with myself.
"I just took a turn and it dawned on me why you did this." Zhang Zimei said that Fan Chengguang encouraged her to continue with interest: "You want to make your own money on the Diwang project. ”
Fan Chengguang was noncommittal, continued to walk forward, did not turn around, he said: "I sometimes think that I seem to be very capable, but in fact, I have been kidnapped a long time ago. ”
Zhang Zimei followed, and she didn't know how to answer, so she quietly followed and walked beside her. Fan Chengguang had been teaching her how to set up an investment company all morning, and after finishing speaking, she suddenly asked, "Chengguang, can we still be like before?" ”
Fan Chengguang was not surprised, they were both honest with each other, he was able to come last night, it was not considered to have given her expectations. It's just that he saw Chen Xinran again, and some things became different again. He touched her head, shook his head, and said, "We are good partners and good friends." Zhang Zimei was slightly stunned, and quickly walked out of the love and nodded with a smile.
Zhao Yu came to pick up Fan Chengguang, and he was a little surprised.
"You're here to play? Do you want me to stay here with you for the night? Fan Chengguang said: "It's pretty good." ”
"No, I'm bored at home anyway, I heard you say you don't have a car, so I'll pick you up." Zhao Yu said.
"I'm not without a driver." Fan Chengguang glanced at him inexplicably and said, "I don't understand why he suddenly treated me so well." ”
"It's just boring, isn't it?"
"Didn't you take my sister with you every day for the New Year, why are you bored again."
"Xiaoxi went to play with her friends today."
Fan Chengguang sighed, didn't care, and got into the car. On the way, the two chatted about the shareholder structure of the subsidiary of the Diwang project.
"If it's good, your project company can set up a real estate in the sky. If it's not good, that much money is enough to make it difficult for you to get on your way. Zhao Yu analyzed objectively.
"Tianyi Construction is no longer in favor of reinvesting in real estate because of Uncle Jian and Uncle Jian's control. I'm on my own. Fan Chengguang said: "I'm still worried that Shuangrong's mediation will be successful, and then I will make a wedding dress for someone again." ”
"Your investment conditions this time are too harsh, the cost is high, the profit point is very low, and the external market is not good, these old people may not be able to be moved by Shuangrong." Zhao Yu said.
Fan Chengguang looked at the unknown place in the distance, fell into deep thought, sighed slightly, and suddenly said in a low and sad voice: "Last night, I slept with Xinran. ”
"What?" Zhao Yu was startled, the steering wheel shook, and he hurriedly turned away.
Fan Chengguang glared at him and said, "My woman, can't you sleep with me?" ”
"So I said, Chen Xinran can't compare to Su Xiaoyan. She, alas, is constantly broken, and she really hates iron and steel. Zhao Yu said sadly. He thought that Fan Chengguang had gone to meet his old lover, but he didn't expect to be with Chen Xinran again. For such a woman, his feelings are very complicated, and he can't say whether he likes or hates them, but he is sympathetic.
Fan Chengguang glared at her again, and didn't know how to refute for a while, but fell into deeper thought.
After Zhao Yu sent Fan Chengguang to the villa's home, he had no intention of leaving, and followed Haohao to play in the yard. Li Shuangrong saw Fan Chengguang, who had not returned all night, come back with Zhao Yu, and there was a little happy look on her face, and invited Zhao Yu to stay for dinner.
The elders of the family were not there, and the four of them were quite comfortable eating dinner. Zhao Yu was a little absent-minded, and his eyes kept looking at the door. "Why hasn't Xiaoxi come back yet?"
Li Shuangrong laughed and said, "She is 23 years old after the Chinese New Year, so what does it matter if she goes home later." When we were in England, we couldn't see it, who could control when she would come back. ”
Zhao Yu also smiled and said: "I always treat her as a child." When is she going back to the UK? ”
Fan Chengguang thought for a while and said, "There are still 10 days." ”
After dinner, Zhao Yu and Fan Chengguang played chess, Li Shuangrong made tea next to him, and Hao Hao watched cartoons in the living room. When Li Shuangrong brought the tea, Fan Chengguang looked up at her with a smile. I don't know if this smile is because of Zhao Yu's aftersmile after the army, or because I saw Li Shuangrong bringing tea, although it was light, it made Li Shuangrong happy. She sat down beside him, and he was not displeased, but took her tea and drank it calmly. Zhao Yu shook his head at the other end.
"I have been with my dad a few times in the past few days during the Chinese New Year, and my chess skills have increased greatly. Zhao Yu, you can't leave me. Fan Chengguang smiled, and Li Shuangrong also smiled.
Zhao Yu looked at the couple and had the illusion of going back to 10 years ago, shook his head and said, "Bow to the wind." ”
It was almost 10 o'clock, and the elders in the family came back one after another, but Fan Chengxi still didn't come back. Zhao Yu didn't want to stay and chatter any longer, so he got up and left.
At 11 o'clock, he called Fan Chengxi without sleepiness, and the phone was answered after a while.
"Zhao Yu, it's so late, what's the matter?"
"Oh, Xiaoxi, let me ask you if you're home?"
"Well, I came back at 10 o'clock, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, I want to ask you, tomorrow your brother and sister-in-law will go back to S City, do you want to come over and play for 2 days."
"Yes."
"Then I'll take you."
"Are you driving yourself? Then I'll stay with you. ”
"Okay. Contact tomorrow. ”
Zhao Yu pressed the phone and felt his hands tremble a little. With such a few words, he was actually nervous. He got up, opened the balcony, put on his coat, and walked out. The night breeze in early spring was still cold, and he looked at the street lights and lit a cigarette. When did Mom leave herself? Again, he asked himself.
I remember that it was summer, and he slept in a tent on the construction site, with only a small electric fan next to him to let him sleep peacefully. It was a very long summer, but Dad was always away. He was working at night and didn't come back until after 10 o'clock every day. Sometimes, my mother just sat under the lamp and did something. Sometimes, my mother is still chatting with people outside the account. Sometimes Dad comes back and they fight. That night, he woke up suddenly, probably because of the shaking bed.
He opened his eyes slightly, and saw an acquaintance uncle pressing his mother, they were all gasping for air, he was a little scared, he didn't dare to speak, closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, but he fell asleep again.
The next night, my mother was nowhere to be found on the construction site. All the people are helping to find it. Everyone said that his mother had fallen and couldn't find it anywhere. Only when he was young, he suddenly had ignorance torn apart in his mind, and when he grew up overnight, he was precocious and understood that his mother had run away with someone. However, he could not say anything about anyone.
Later, Fan Chengguang's father gradually developed, their conditions were getting better and better, no longer had to live on the construction site, and his father married another wife, because he had never given birth, he regarded him as his own. Everyone seems to have forgotten that he still has a mother's.
Everyone wondered why he wasn't married yet, only he knew. He can't love it. He liked Li Shuangrong just because he liked it; He liked Su Xiaoyan, but just because he liked it, it was impossible to love it at all. He knew it, because he couldn't love it. This hidden secret made him lose the ability to love.
After the New Year's Festival, the city seems to have just stopped at a bend and flowed quickly.
Early in the morning, Fan Chengguang's family went back to S City, and after the year, Tianyi Real Estate Company wanted to deliver the last batch of land transfer money, and the Diwang project really belonged to Tianyi Real Estate.
As soon as she arrived in S City, Li Shuangrong was very irritable, and soon the project was about to set up a subsidiary belonging to Tianyi Real Estate, if she said that she could not move shareholders to reinvest, then with the current book funds of Tianyi Real Estate, although the land was taken, development would become a problem.
"What should I do?" She asked Fan Chengguang.
"If you take the land, let's not develop it yet. Wait until I get all the money in Qingdao back and develop it again. Fan Chengguang's words made Li Shuangrong frown. Can't afford it, funds. Every day is interest. ”
"There's no way. Take your time. Fan Chengguang's gentle tone made Li Shuangrong feel very comfortable, and the expression on her face eased a lot.
Zhao Yu went to pick up Fan Chengxi at noon, she said: "Zhao Yu, go to the west community of Xiacheng and pick up a friend to go with you." ”
"Who's going with you?"
"Li Zhiqi."
"Who? Do I know each other? ”
"Oh, do you remember? You took me to that New Year's party, and I mentioned to you that there was also a guy who was studying in England. That's him. ”
"Oh." Zhao Yu paused and asked, "You are very familiar." ”
"Well, it's better to play, and we often play together during this time. I told him that he was going to S City, and he said he would come and accompany me. Fan Chengxi's face had a blush that was not easy to see, Zhao Yu saw it, and didn't say anything more.
Li Zhiqi's smile was very bright, as soon as he got in the car, the dull car was lively, the two of them sat in the back and chatted and talked, and when it came to excitement, Fan Chengxi would happily pat his body.
Zhao Yu drove in front and said very little. He looked at the scenic highway, and the long four hours were like a minute, and there was no difference.
After arriving in S City, Zhao Yu asked Fan Chengxi to live in his house. She looked at him strangely, but agreed. Li Zhiqi had no choice but to go to the hotel by himself and meet again tomorrow.
