Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Manor
"The estate took three years to build, with a ballroom, aquarium, cinema, wine cellar, gym and more, and is luxuriously decorated with marble from the interior floors to the bathroom tiles. The garden is modeled after the palace, with marble statues and a fountain decorated with gold leaf. The ceiling frescoes and aquarium are impressive, and every part of the castle exudes American luxury. Akemi read the introduction on the Internet, amazed, and looked at Wu Jian with adoring eyes.
Wu Jian shook his head, scratched Mingmei's nose, and said: "Okay, don't read it, it'll be here in a while, I picked up a cheap one to buy such a good manor, if you like it, I'll give it to you!" ”
Mingmei pinched Wu Jian's face and said, "So generous, Mr. Wu!" You have so much money, why don't you get married and have children? With this net worth, it's not too much to be a star. ”
Wu Jian was about to say something, but the assistant pointed ahead and shouted, "It's here, we've arrived!" ”
The car sped into the manor, and the housekeeper had been waiting for a long time, and Akemi happily jumped out of the car, when the mobile phone suddenly rang. Akemi was happy and didn't look too much and answered the phone.
"Hey! Daughter, where are you? I can't find you anywhere, my father is just your daughter, and I still expect you to give my father a pension. Dad is old, you can't ignore me, my property is still waiting for you to inherit it! ”
When Mingmei heard that it was Mr. Ming, she rolled her eyes at Wu Jian and whispered that he was Mr. Ming. Then he walked towards the garden and shouted impatiently, "I don't want your money!" I want a truth, when are you going to tell me? You wait for me to find out with a private investigator, and you won't have a chance to explain it to me. ”
"What truth? I'm your dad. How much do you take care of your father's feelings? ”
"Why don't I care about you? I just want to know who my mom is? Is this an excessive request? ”
"It's good that you still don't know about your mother, but dad is for your good!"
"Why did you choose for me? Never mind. The more I talk about it, the more annoying it becomes, I'm in the United States, don't call. Akemi hung up the phone, and Wu Jian approached and handed Akemi a glass of red wine.
Mingmei's eyebrows sank, took the wine glass, and shook it. Sniffed it and said, "The collection in the cellar?" Mellow and fragrant! Everything in this world is beautiful, but people are troubled by themselves. ”
"Mr. Ming's business. I'll do your research, before we came, I asked someone to investigate your American mom and compare your DNA. She's not your mother. Wu Jian finished. One hand is in the belt of his trousers, and the other is holding a wine glass.
"I knew it! He lied to me for so many years! How can there be such a ruthless father? The more Akemi talked, the more angry she became.
"Actually, I'm afraid he's also for your good, maybe there really is something unspeakable about the past. He makes you think that your mother is in a vegetative state, just to give you a glimmer of hope. Many single parents lie to their children that the other party is dead, so worry-free, but the child will be very sad! Therefore, Mr. Ming still cares about your feelings. Wu Jian looked serious. Mr. Ming spoke.
"I wouldn't be wrong about him, he just loves money. Love women. The others don't care about anything, he is an upstart, and the reform and opening up gave him a chance. Akemi felt a lot of stuffiness in her chest, covered it, and took a few careful breaths.
"Anger is not good for the body, forget it. I found a French designer, and he made a cheongsam for you, a style that combines Chinese and Western, and you go and try it. Wu Jian and Akemi walked side by side in the garden, becoming a landscape.
"So good to me? Although I have been your cousin for a few days, I have no merit! "Akemi shirks and accepts expensive gifts, I'm afraid it will make the other party misunderstand, and gifts and feelings are often linked.
"Don't reject me, I'm poor, and I'm left with a cousin like you who is not related by blood. You asked me if I was lonely and invited me to feel the atmosphere of your big three-bedroom. I'm relieved that you have given me a feeling of home, which has not felt like this for many years. Whatever I send you, you will take it as a big brother friendship for me. Wu Jian looked at Akemi, looking pitiful and lonely.
Akemi walked into the castle, the servants were all fluent in Chinese, from the main hall to the bedroom, Wu Jian carefully prepared many gifts, almost every step of the way there were surprises. The most expensive is a pair of jade bracelets, the old pit is delicate ice glutinous species, the ground is very delicate, a touch of emerald green through the bracelet body, bright and charming! With that cheongsam, the designer also matched a Hermes bag.
Akemi looked at these gifts and finally understood why Wu Jian kept emphasizing before setting off that he should not bring any luggage, because he had already arranged everything properly.
At dinner, Wu Jian brought a bowl of glutinous red bean porridge and put it in front of Mingmei. Akemi took a sip, which was the taste of the red bean porridge made by Li Guo. asked: "This is made by Li Guo, how can we eat it in the United States?" , is Li Guo coming? ”
"You told me that you hope that Li Guo will become a well-known entrepreneur, and I will promote his red bean porridge to the United States. Not yet on the market, you taste it. Wu Jian also took a sip, nodded, and took a second sip.
"Thank you for helping us a lot! If it is sold in the United States, it is very troublesome, canned red bean porridge, how can the quality and taste be guaranteed? Akemi asked.
"I'm afraid I have to go to the branch factory in the United States, do you love him?" Wu Jian asked coldly.
"What?" Akemi was caught off guard by the question, blinked her eyes, and looked at Wu Jian blankly.
"You said that you helped him start a business in order to repay Li Guo. So, do you have a little bit of love for him? Wu Jian smiled meaningfully, looking like he couldn't hide anything from him after seeing through the red dust.
"I'm a short-lived person, it doesn't matter if I love it or not, it won't last long anyway. Helping him start a business is a merit I have cultivated in the world. You're thinking too much. Akemi lowered her head and continued to drink porridge, pretending not to care.
"That's not love, okay, I'll just make sure. Actually, when it comes to merit, I think Rhubarb is repaying you and Li Guo. I'm afraid that your life and death calamity has been broken, and if you have done so many good deeds, God will also favor you. After Wu Jian finished speaking, the maid walked in and served a dessert.
Akemi thought to herself, Wu Jian is right, God favors him, he has a chance to be reborn, since he is reborn, then fate should be rewritten. Shouldn't you be bold and accept Li Guo's love? Some people regard every day as their last, and they still have four and a half years to say the least, and maybe they can have a child with Li Guo. If you are lucky, your cancer may be avoided, and I am afraid that I will be in a good mood when I have a child, and I will not quarrel with Mr. Ming every day.
Wu Jian pointed in the direction of the window and said, "Early tomorrow morning, let's go to the beach to watch the sunrise, that direction!" ”
Akemi smiled and asked, "When are we going back home?" I think I know what to do. (To be continued.) )
