Chapter 57: Finally Seeing Chen Bicheng
The location is on the roof of an unknown house. It's a rooftop garden-like place, and it's still a beautiful day, otherwise the January cold wind blowing on the roof of the twentieth floor wouldn't be a joke.
At this time, Lan Kexin and I were sitting at a tea table, and across from me sat a middle-aged man in his forties, he was Chen Bicheng! The man who made the family on the high round platform smell and change the color, and at the same time my legendary father! Hikoichi is right, he is really more handsome than me, but it's only a little bit! I was surprised why a man in his forties exuded a youthful aura.
I've been looking at him since I came here, and so has he. All the while, he said "Please be seated" to us, and nothing else.
Behind me and Lan Kexin stood Victor with his head held high, with sunglasses on his head, and the appearance of an iron-blooded bodyguard. And Chen Bicheng also had a bodyguard standing behind him, but it was a short-haired woman. The woman was also wearing sunglasses and couldn't see her expression. It's just that her standing posture is obviously a little softer than Victor's steady and heroic attitude of hanging down and crossing his hands, and even the appearance of her hands in the pockets of her trench coat is a little elegant and noble. This kind of feeling is extremely rare in a bodyguard.
But I think she's more of a killer!
The woman seemed to notice something, turned her head to look around, and then bent down and whispered a few words in Chen Bicheng's ear.
Chen Bicheng nodded while listening, and then said to me, "Before you start talking, can you ask another of your bodyguards to show up?" ”
My pupils shrank, how could she directly see through the hidden peony in such an empty area?
Without waiting for me to give any instructions, Peony came out of the shadows at the staircase on the side, looked at the short-haired woman with a complicated expression, and said, "You are from 'there', I thought it was just a legend." ”
"All legends have a source," Chen Bicheng showed a lot of interest in peonies, "but some are exaggerated, some are abbreviated." ”
"Is the legend of their 'alliance' exaggerated or abbreviated?"
Chen Bicheng smiled but didn't answer, "If you are interested, you can follow me in the future, I can see that you have a good talent." Then he pointed to the short-haired woman next to him and said, "Her surname is 'Abach', you should have heard of it." ”
Peony's lips trembled, and he said, "No need. ”
Chen Bicheng also stopped talking to Peony, and tapped the handle of the chair with his hand while looking at me, and said, "Chen Mo, Chen Mo, you have left me a big mess......" He glanced at Lan Kexin and said, "I want to talk to Chen Mo alone about the next things." ”
Lan Kexin understood, got up and left, and then including the short-haired woman, Victor, and Peony all left the roof. At this time, only me and Chen Bicheng were left.
Chen Bicheng took out a box of cigars from his pocket and held it up to me, and I shook my hand to say no. Then he said, "Before I say something, you must have a lot of questions, and you must have prepared a lot of questions, so why don't you ask first and I'll answer first." When all your doubts are cleared, I will tell you the rest. ”
His proposal was very good, and the way he communicated was very efficient. Indeed, for the sake of this meeting, I thought about many, many questions last night.
"Are you really my father?"
"It's not."
As a result, his first answer made all my remaining questions meaningless.
……
I stared at Chen Bicheng who was lighting a cigar with wide eyes, my mouth was so wide that I was about to cramp, "That'...... Who is my father? ”
Chen Bicheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, "How do I know, it's not me anyway." ”
I wanted to ask him why Chen Ci left home as soon as he was born, why he had never returned home once in nearly 20 years, and why he was so ruthless to his family...... Now, none of these questions are needed.
"You don't think there's anything else you want to ask?"
The corners of my mouth twitched, and I directly burst into a foul mouth, "What the hell are you guys who colluded to play with me?" ”
Chen Bicheng nodded, "The collusion is true, but the purpose is not to trick you." Then he took a puff of his cigarette, paused and continued, "Since you don't have anything to ask, then I'll take it for me." ”
"Chen Mo, you are an ordinary person, fortunately, you can't find out who your father is, and fortunately, my family can't find out. Yan Yi suggested spreading the rumor that you are my son to Gao Yuantai, in order to act more seriously, he did not hesitate to let the eldest lady of the Loulan family marry you, and let the Loulan family ask for favors from the unbroken family for you. After such an operation, who would dare not believe that you are my son? ”
I suppressed the corners of my mouth and said, "So, it's all the collusion of the three of you?" ”
Chen Bicheng shook his head, "It's not the three families, it's me, Yanyi, and Wuxiang, the three of them." This matter so far, plus you only know about it. Our initial plan was to use you to win over a neutral family like the Lan family and split Gao Yuantai into two factions. Then pull a faction, fight a faction. If they continue to lose each other, the chamber of commerce will play an increasingly important role. Indeed, the plan played a very effective role in the early stage, like Lan Beiwang Those old foxes gradually became moved, and the fact that the Gu family was pressed and beaten is the best proof, and they even forced them to want to kill you, I have to admire Yan Yi's plan. ”
"In that case, why is Hikoichi determined to kill me?"
"That's where I'm weird. I asked Yan Yi, and he said that you care more about Lan Kexin than the balance, if you lean directly against the Lan family, our plan is aborted, and the Lan family will take advantage of the situation in the future, and the balance will be broken again. Don't think that Lan Beiwang secretly has no layout, he has already negotiated the two families. The situation would be beyond our control. To put it simply, Hikoichi feels that you are out of control and can only erase you. ”
"!" I scolded fiercely, "What the hell, it was he who let me contact the Lan family in the first place, and now he is ......"
"Maybe he didn't expect that the position of Wuxiang in your heart would be so insignificant." Then Chen Bicheng sighed, "Yanyi is indeed a conspiracy genius, but he is still lacking in operation. Especially such a thing as feelings, it is too immeasurable. He put his feelings in calculations, and the variables instantly became several times greater. Without the Slim Stranger as a hindrance, you and Lan Kexin might not have developed so fast, really...... It's still set aside by the Gu family. ”
"And what is your purpose?"
Chen Bicheng said, "I want the Chamber of Commerce to completely ban the Gao Yuantai mechanism." The deal with Hikoichi was: let him become the Huangcheng family of King's Landing, and he would be the next president after me. ”
"Are you crazy? I've heard that none of the managers of the Chamber of Commerce can be from a family! ”
"There will be a harvest if you pay, otherwise how can you sweep away the deep-rooted tumor of 'Gao Yuantai'?"
