1991, Summer, Rome.

Narrow and orderly paths, dilapidated monuments, mottled walls, and complicated ancient doors and windows show the classical elegance and gorgeous atmosphere of the Renaissance; The asymmetrical structure and seemingly casual design give a striking feeling.

If Rome is like a woman with absolute charm, her existence is to make people understand what it is to love and what is to be loved; Then the Roman heaven is the Sanskrit sound that cleanses the hearts of others, it is blue, high and ethereal, full of healing breath.

Vera loves the city so much that she bought a small property here in her previous life, which is now considered a downtown area. It was a pseudonym, and no one knew about it. This is her base camp in this life, and it is also her secret base.

"Beibei, are you listening to your father intently?" Gu Xiangnan heard that there was no sound in the microphone, thinking that the phone was disconnected again, and immediately said loudly: "Can you hear Dad talking?" ”

A girl of nearly 1.7 meters holds the phone between her ears, leans against the wall with one leg high, and dances naturally with the other arm. It is difficult to achieve such a big split without a good sense of balance and very open tendons, not to mention that she is also dual-minded.

In the past year, she has been able to receive calls from China every weekend, usually Gu Xiangnan talks endlessly, Gu Beibei listens, and occasionally catches up a few words. Sometimes they can talk for two hours even on boring topics, so Gu Beibei is actually a good listener.

She could feel the change in the man, both in terms of tone and the content of the conversation. Now he can be regarded as a successful person, and he is no longer an unknown porter.

Gu Beibei responded softly: "Well, I heard it." I'll be going back next month, just in time for the summer holidays. By the way, Xiaobei is almost three years old, and I will bring gifts back. ”

With the success of a man's career, of course, his life has changed accordingly, surrounded by his wife and children, such a life must be the dream of many people. Bei Bei knew about Ye Minmin's existence a year ago, Lisa met Gu Xiangnan in Hong Kong, and they became more contacted. From the news of knowing the existence of this man. She didn't mention it. I didn't object, and I didn't make a fuss, as if it were meant to be.

Gu Xiangnan was a little uncomfortable when he heard Gu Beibei mention his son, and coughed. Cautiously rehashing old things: "Bebe." Would you blame Dad for not telling you about it sooner? I couldn't reach you before. I didn't say anything, but then I didn't know how to speak. But don't worry, you'll always be Dad's favorite child. That's not going to change. ”

Gu Beibei smiled, did not appease or refute, and said softly: "I know." What I'm worried about now is what to do when I see her next month? What kind of woman is she? Is there anything I need to pay attention to? ”

Judging from Gu Xiangnan's insistence on making international roaming calls every week for the past year, Gu Beibei knew that he was telling the truth, and he was in a very firm position in his heart; That's enough, as for what others think, she has no right to influence.

Gu Xiangnan was silent for a while, and said, "Your Aunt Ye is a very kind person, you don't have to worry, as long as the person comes back, you don't need to bring gifts." I told you before that she is also a poor woman, it is not easy for a woman to run a stall with her daughter, and I started with her help when I first came to Hong Kong. In addition, Zixuan is about the same age as you, so I have some empathy. After that, we naturally came together, with Xiaobei, a naughty ghost. ”

Gu Beibei could hear the satisfaction and sweetness of his current life from his words, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and lowered his legs to look at the sky in the distance.

Gu Xiangnan continued: "Now your Aunt Ye has opened her own clothing wholesale company, mainly supplying the inner market, so business has been good. Recently, the rent and land prices in Hong Kong have skyrocketed, the cost of labor and processing has increased, and the profit has decreased accordingly. ”

"Well, that's good, reducing costs to maximize benefits." Bei Bei knew what Gu Xiangnan meant by saying these words, but she didn't break it.

Sure enough, seeing that Bei Bei didn't speak, he said hesitantly: "Bei Bei, Dad thinks if he can take out 200,000 yuan from the company's books to help her open this factory." Do you think you can? ”

Facing his consultation, Gu Beibei stretched out his hand and held on to the railing, and was silent for a moment: "Although the initial capital of the company was mailed back by me, but now you are taking care of it, the boss of the company is you, you have the right to make any decision, I trust your judgment."

"Beibei" is like Gu Beibei understands and trusts Gu Xiangnan, Gu Xiangnan also understands Beibei's meaning, but the more this happens, the more guilty he becomes, and all the words only merge into an intimate murmur.

Bei Bei was not used to such tender moments, and began to change the topic: "By the way, I remitted $500,000 in Citibank yesterday, did it arrive?" ”

Gu Xiangnan was immediately unhappy when he heard that Bei Bei had sent him such a large amount of foreign exchange, although he was very short of money at this time, he didn't want his daughter to work too hard.

He said bitterly: "Beibei, Dad knows that your money comes faster than in China, but it's too hard." Dad wants you to grow up simply and happily, do something your peers should do, and don't worry about Dad, okay? ”

Gu Beibei didn't agree: "I'm just investing the money in your company, and in the end, I can not only get the principal, but even the interest will not be less." There are very few things that make a profit in the capitalist market, and in fact I take advantage of it. In my analysis, the domestic development momentum has been rapid in recent years, and we should increase the control of the market, so the company is bound to expand, and there will be a gap in funds. This may not be enough. ”

Gu Xiangnan sighed, knowing that he was persuaded by his daughter again, as if he had never won against his daughter. This is a strong debater who knows the roots, and he has no choice but to surrender.

He teased: "Girl, if it weren't for the photos of your ballet competition that I could see every once in a while, I thought that my father sent you abroad to study market economy, and the rhetoric was a complete set." Yes, my father depends on you for this, so I will work for you. ”

As soon as Bei Bei talked about the general trend of economic development in the capital market, Gu Xiangnan would forget what he had said in his heart before starting the topic, and listen quietly. Although Bei Bei is not very old, he has a good ability to control the market, and his insights are also very unique, much better than his company's economic consultants, and it is rare and very applicable.

Bei Bei's eyes revealed cunning, and he continued: "I think your decision to go back to the mainland is right, and the company's funds should also go north, the sooner the better." Otherwise, when the division is clean, even if you have no money, you will not have a place. ”

At this time, she stood confidently and upright, like a thorny flower blooming on the wall, swaying with the wind. (To be continued.) )
