Chapter 199: The Mysterious Number

Liu Anfei got up early this morning to prepare breakfast, because he was about to send Du Lin back to the boarding school. Last night's family dinner was terrible, and Liu Anfei also felt a little sorry for Du Lin.

She still hadn't finished half of the birthday cake she had prepared, so she took it out again, cut it into small pieces, and set it on the table. In addition to this, she grinds fresh red bean soy milk, a few fried eggs, and a ham sandwich.

When the rich aroma of soy milk spread, Liu Anfei saw that the time was almost up. She didn't know if Du Zeming and Du Lin had gotten up, and was thinking about going upstairs to have a look.

At this time, Du Zeming must still be sleeping, but because of today's special situation, Du Lin must be sent to school some time in advance to avoid missing the first class in the morning.

When Liu Anfei walked out of the kitchen and walked towards the stairs, she saw that Du Zeming had changed his clothes and appeared in the corridor. Liu Anfei still feels very down-to-earth about this, Du Zeming has never been negligent or late in the matter of picking up Du Lin.

The two did not talk much in the dull atmosphere yesterday, and when they woke up today, they gave each other a smile, and it seemed that the state of the semi-cold war had improved.

Liu Anfei smiled and said, "Breakfast is ready, come down and eat." ”

Du Zeming nodded, signaling him to go to Du Lin's room to take a look first, I don't know if the child is still asleep. Liu Anfei turned around and went back to prepare to take the breakfast out of the container and put it on the plate, because Du Zeming had already gotten up, so he didn't need to think about it anymore. Du Zeming habitually held his forehead with his right hand, rubbing his thumb and middle finger vigorously on both temples.

The quality of his sleep has always been bad, and he will always toss and turn at night, and it is not easy to fall asleep. Sometimes, he would even wake up suddenly, sweating all over his body, and frightened Liu Anfei several times.

However, although sleeping at night is always a problem, at Liu Anfei's insistent request, Du Zeming went for a comprehensive physical examination, but did not find anything abnormal.

Du Zeming pushed open Du Lin's door, and the child really hadn't woken up yet. Du Zeming was a little sorry for yesterday's incident, he knew that he should have given Du Lin a happier birthday atmosphere, but it was indeed not so easy for him to show a natural and relaxed state on that occasion.

What Du Zeming minded was the presence of Li Shujun, and the relationship between the two people always seemed very complicated now.

Since knowing his background, the relationship between Du Zeming and Li Shujun has become very delicate. Sometimes two people will stand on the same position, but they will often have essential contradictions and disputes when looking at some issues.

There is no way to do this, after Du Liangde's death, Li Shujun seemed to have regained his freedom and began to move frequently in the charity circle and business circles. This is very different from her previous image and behavior of retreating behind the scenes and accompanying Du Liangde with peace of mind.

A year and a half ago, Hongming Group suddenly split internally, and the fuse of all this naturally originated from Du Liangde's death, and the return of Du Hongming, the son of Du family.

Before his death, Du Liangde quietly transferred all the shares of Hongming Group in his hands to Du Hongming, which seemed to the outside world to be ready to completely hand over Hongming Group to Du Hongming.

At that time, Du Zeming became in an embarrassing situation, as he had been the CEO of Hongming Group for many years, but in the end he had to be replaced by Du Hongming, who had not been in Hongming Group for even a day, and this result made him feel strong dissatisfaction and anger.

He had no way to accept that he ended up with nothing, even if in fact he really had nothing to do with the Du family.

But in the eyes of the outside world, this is a political power struggle for the Du family. As a result, Du Zeming, as the eldest son, has always been more favored by Du Liangde, and Du Zeming's years of hard work and dedication in the group have become a wedding dress for Du Hongming.

Du Zeming naturally knows best, although Du Liangde and Du Hongming have broken up for so many years, after all, blood is thicker than water, and family affection always surpasses everything. Between Du Hongming, the son of the Du family, and himself, who has paid for the Du family for many years, but has no blood relationship, Du Liangde naturally made a choice that no one can question.

If this situation continues, in the eyes of the outside world, Du Zeming will become a loser who was defeated in the struggle for power and finally swept away.

In this dilemma, Li Shujun came to the forefront. Because with the cooperation of Du Zeming, she finally became the legal director of Hongming Group. This position is of great significance to Li Shujun, who broke the deliberate suppression of Du Liangde when he was alive and reappeared in a key position in the company's operation.

Du Liangde's deliberate restriction at the beginning was very far-sighted, because Li Shujun is a very terrifying person, and her strong aura and shrewd mind in the workplace are enough for her to quickly cultivate power and influence the overall situation.

In order to prevent Hongming Group from completely becoming an asset in the hands of Du Hongming, Li Shujun united Du Zeming, who was not firm at the time, and launched a wonderful power struggle with Du Hongming.

As a result, Hongming Group has since been divided into two, and Li Shujun and Du Zeming have separated from Hongming Group with some companies and projects, and re-established the current Zelin Group.

Although in terms of scale and influence, Zelin Group cannot be compared with the original Hongming Group. But Du Zeming at least avoided becoming a loser with nothing, and Li Shujun also got the rich reward he wanted from the Du family.

In this regard, Du Hongming drew a clear line with Du Zeming and Li Shujun, and privately agreed not to allow them to continue to engage in commercial activities in the name of the Du family outside.

This point is indeed reasonable from Du Hongming's point of view, not to mention that he still has a hole card in his hand, which is enough to force Li Shujun and Du Zeming not to offend easily, but people in the outside world do not know the inside story, they just think that the Du family will be divided into two from then on, as for whether to trust the Du family represented by Du Hongming more, or to be close to the Du family represented by Du Zeming and Li Shujun, these are just depending on interests.

Du Zeming has rarely been in contact with Li Shujun since then, and the two are busy with their own things, barely maintaining their identity as mother and son on the surface.

Du Zeming deliberately avoided topics or occasions about identity, and he always felt very awkward in his heart for family dinners like yesterday.

Because if you want to talk about it by the standard of relatives, only himself and Du Lin are real relatives, Li Shujun can no longer be counted, and Liu Anfei is not considered yet.

At this time, Du Zeming came to Du Lin's bedside, he looked at Du Lin, who was still asleep, and was hesitating whether to wake him up. His gaze swept to something in Du Lin's hand, thinking it was some kind of toy. He had always had a rule that Du Lin was not allowed to bring some toys or anything like that to the bed. So, he reached over and picked it up.

This thing looks like an electronic watch with a large screen on it. Du Zeming inadvertently touched the button on the watch, and the screen was immediately lit up, and a mobile phone number was displayed on it, and there was a call record just last night.

Could this be a phone watch? Du Zeming couldn't help but doubt in his heart, but he knew that he had never bought such a thing for Du Lin, and at the same time, no one had told him that he had given Du Lin a phone watch, what was going on?

"Daddy?" Du Lin opened his eyes in a daze.

Du Zeming gently put the phone watch back and said to Du Lin: "Come on, Aunt Fei Fei has already made breakfast, don't forget that you are going back to school today." ”

Du Lin nodded and sat up very reluctantly.

After exercising in boarding school, Du Lin has now become very independent, he can complete things such as washing his face and brushing his teeth by himself, and he no longer needs Du Zeming's urging and help.

"Dad goes down first, you remember to brush your teeth and wash your hands well, and then come down for breakfast." After Du Zeming explained, he walked out of Du Lin's room.

Who was Du Lin talking to on the phone last night? This question made Du Zeming very alert, and even had a faint premonition, but he couldn't say what he had a premonition.

Just give it a try, you can't just leave it alone. Du Zeming had memorized the phone number displayed on the electronic watch just now, so he was now able to dial the number on his mobile phone smoothly.

The phone number is real, not some kind of fictitious game. But in this way, Du Zeming was even more suspicious.

The call could be made, and after a while of waiting for a tone, someone finally picked up the call on the other end.

"Hey."

It was the voice of a young woman.

Du Zeming said into the phone a little anxiously: "Who are you?" ”

With a busy tone, the phone has been hung up.

Du Zeming carefully searched for this voice in his mind, but he was sure that he did not know this woman. It was a voice that felt unfamiliar to him, and of course he only heard the other person say that one word. It was out of concern for his son Du Lin that made him feel twelve points of spirit when dealing with this matter. He connected the woman on the other end of the phone with the woman who went to school to find Du Lin that time.

The mysterious woman and this mysterious phone call made Du Zeming feel the seriousness of the matter, and there was an inexplicable loss in his heart at the moment when he made the phone call just now.
