"Chen Bowen, Chen Bowen, you come out for me!" Lu Wanting stood at the bevel of the men's bathroom with her hands on her hips, shouting at the opposite bathroom, and several young men and women who were watching the excitement covered their mouths and snickered behind her.

She was sitting there waiting for Chen Bowen, and after eating a few bites of cheese, she couldn't swallow it, but Chen Bowen hadn't shown up for a long time, the more she thought about it, the more scared she became, so she was cheeky and shouted in public.

As soon as she saw Chen Bowen walk out of the bathroom, a stone in Lu Wanting's heart finally fell to the ground, although she also knew that it was a shame to do so, but as soon as Chen Bowen left for too long, she seemed extremely panicked, and when he appeared in the field of vision, she was at ease.

Chen Bowen pulled Lu Wanting aside and asked, "What's wrong?" There was a deliberately disguised reproach in his tone.

"It's nothing, I'm just going to see if you're there."

Chen Bowen couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this answer, "Okay, if it's okay, I'll go back to work, you wait for me here, I'll come to you after work, soon." ”

Just about to turn around, Chen Bowen asked tentatively: "By the way, do you still have power on your mobile phone?" ”

"I've been losing my phone for a while, I didn't tell you."

"Ah, yes, I forgot." Chen Bowen thought to himself, now there is no need to worry that Lu Wanting will call Chen Zhongwu.

Back at the company, Chen Bowen stepped into the office with his front foot, and followed him after he was full of money.

"Mr. Chen, the little girl who came to make trouble this morning didn't have any disrespect to you, right? She actually has the face to say that you are her husband, just by her? ”

"You go out first, I still have business to take care of." Chen Bowen said coldly.

Qian Manchu had nowhere to vent his complaints, and he unexpectedly touched his nose, and glanced at Chen Bowen angrily, while Chen Bowen only stared at the computer screen.

"That's right, Manman, you go and call Xiao Li in."

"Got it." Qian Manman deliberately stepped on his high heels and left the office.

Xiao Li has been in Chen's company for almost five years, and is one of Chen Bowen's most important employees, and he told Xiao Li to pay more attention to the company's affairs these days, and he may not appear in the company often.

After Chen Bowen explained everything, it was already past eleven o'clock, and he used the company's landline to call home.

"Grandma, I'm Zhongwu. I booked a ticket to New Zealand this morning and will probably be there for a while. Big brother will take Lu Wanting back to see you today. ”

"Didn't you say you'd be back in a few days? Could it be that Wanting has returned? ”

"Not yet, her plane won't arrive until this morning. I didn't know there was a rare financial meeting in New Zealand, so I decided to come back early. Besides, this can also avoid embarrassment, and wait until the relationship between the eldest brother and sister-in-law is stable before returning to the company. ”

"It's okay, you take care of yourself while you're outside."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Bowen hurriedly picked up his suit jacket and left the office.

In the café, Lu Wanting looked at the street scene boredly, she needed to tilt her head a little more to see the office building of Chen's company, which was located in the bustling section of City C, and there were the people she was most worried about.

Thinking like this, Lu Wanting's previous anger has disappeared, Chen Bowen, who was born in a big city, not only accompanied her to her remote hometown, but also acted so generously, giving their family enough face, making her grandmother rarely happy, and the grievance she suffered is nothing, but when she encounters that rich money in the future, she must not let her go easily.

At this time, Chen Bowen's thin figure appeared across the street, and in a trance, Lu Wanting had an unprecedented sense of strangeness, she felt that Chen Bowen's eyebrows were a little more mature and sophisticated, his hair seemed to be shorter than before, and his walking posture had a kingly demeanor, which she had not noticed before.

"Let's go, come back with me to see grandma." Chen Bowen stood in front of Lu Wanting, and he didn't know when he had an extra car key in his hand.

Lu Wanting excitedly grabbed his arm and stood up with strength.

"Is your hair shorter than before?" As soon as the two of them walked out of the door of the café, Lu Wanting reached out and grabbed Chen Bowen's hair affectionately.

Chen Bowen turned his head sensitively, this subtle movement caused Lu Wanting's dissatisfaction, she shook him off a little angrily, and strode forward, Ken Ben didn't see an electric car next to him driving towards her like out of control.

"Be careful!" Chen Bowen rushed up with an arrow, pulled Lu Wanting into his arms, and used his back to block the danger of the outside world for her, but fortunately, the front of the electric car turned sharply so that the innocent were not injured.

"Why was you so careless, didn't you get hurt?" Chen Bowen looked at the corner of Lu Wanting's eyes and asked.

"I'm fine, are you okay?" Lu Wanting's face turned red, and she still had lingering palpitations about the dangerous scene just now, and she also felt guilty for her child's temper.

"It's okay, let's go, my car is parked in the garage."

Sitting in Chen Bowen's black car, Lu Wanting didn't notice any difference between this car and what she had done before, she didn't have any concept of luxury accessories like cars, but she was full of irrepressible joy when she thought that she would see Grandma Chen later.

Chen Bowen is used to listening to economic radio in the car, but Lu Wanting adjusted the frequency to the music channel according to her preferences, and told Chen Bowen interesting stories about her hometown while listening to music.

She grew up in Miao Village, although she is located in a remote and poor mountainous area, the girls and boys in the village are cheerful and generous, and it is this optimism and generosity that allows Lu Wanting to survive in the intrigue society.

Chen Bowen has not spent much time with her, but he has been able to deeply understand that her city is not deep, otherwise how can his previous lame explanation stand? What needs to be solved now is not to let grandma doubt the fact that Chen Zhongwu has gone to New Zealand.

Forty minutes later, the car drove into an upscale neighborhood on the outskirts of the city. There are neat white high-end villas in the community, and the clean and straight road is lined with dense tung trees, and the sunlight penetrates through, and the shadows of the branches and leaves fall on the car windows. Lu Wanting had never entered such a place, and looked around curiously with big eyes.

"This is where you live?"

"Hmm."

"You said you had something else to hide from me."

"You'll be able to see grandma later, if you have any questions, ask her old man."

Chen Bowen turned left and right, stopped in front of one of the villas, rolled down the window, stretched out his hand and pressed his fingerprint on the sensor next to the gate, and the door opened with a "snap".

"We're here." The moment he saw the door, Chen Bowen would always feel very relieved, but today, his mood is always heavy.

"Young Master, you're back." On the lawn in front of the door, Lao Hong, a part-time worker, was watering the lawn with a water hose, and greeted Chen Bowen with a smile when he saw him get out of the car.

"What? Gentleman? Lu Wanting was even more puzzled, "How many children do you have?" ”

Chen Bowen thought that Lu Wanting would chase after this sequential title, and when he was thinking about how to explain it, Lu Wanting said again: "Then do they have to call me young grandma?" ”

Chen Bowen couldn't help her, but he didn't expect that what she cared about was not this at all.

"You have to pay attention when you get home, after all, it's the first time you've officially met grandma." As soon as he walked into the house, Chen Bowen instructed Lu Wanting.

"I know, don't worry, I will never embarrass you." Lu Wanting winked mischievously at Chen Bowen.

"Grandma." Chen Bowen respectfully shouted towards an old figure in the living room.

Lu Wanting felt very familiar when she first saw this back, and when the old man turned around, Lu Wanting was really startled. Isn't this the grandmother who was left to eat by herself before? Lu Wanting was speechless in surprise.

"Daughter-in-law, you've been tired in the past two days, come over and let grandma take a look."

Lu Wanting stayed where she was and didn't react for a while, but Chen Bowen patted her on the back.

"Are you really Chen Bowen's grandmother?" As soon as the words fell, Lu Wanting regretted saying the wrong thing, and she hurriedly changed her words: "Aren't you the grandmother who went to our building a few days ago to find relatives?" ”

"yes, you remember. Then do you remember that I asked you to be my granddaughter-in-law at that time? ”

"Remember, but I thought you were joking." Lu Wanting blushed slightly.

"Hahaha......" Grandma laughed heartily, "Silly girl, you don't believe I'm joking with you now." ”

Lu Wanting recalled that her grandmother was very interested in the glass jar for pickles at that time, and Chen Bowen attached great importance to that glass jar. Didn't I make a big mistake, but when I thought about it, if it weren't for this jar, I wouldn't have been able to enter this gate.

"Grandma, you talk first, I'll go take a shower."

Chen Bowen saw that his grandmother and Lu Wanting were chatting very speculatively, so he left early, he was still thinking about Chen Zhongwu's affairs, and the phone call he received before disturbed his heart.

Standing under the shower head, in order to stay calm, Chen Bowen drenched his whole body, recalling the conversation with a man in the bathroom in the morning, although the caller ID on the mobile phone was Chen Zhongwu's number, but the other party's voice was another person, Chen Bowen's first reaction was that the other party must be the kidnapper who kidnapped Chen Zhongwu.

The kidnappers may have been worried about being tracked, and the two had a very short conversation, and he told Chen Bowen that three days later, at 11 o'clock at night, they met under the third bridge hole of the M bridge, and asked him to prepare 20 million in cash, and not to call the police or make a mistake, otherwise he would tear up the ticket. In the past three days, the mobile phone will be turned off, and he will not be able to get in touch with Chen Zhongwu.

What's next? Work and life, family and employees, there are so many invisible pressures rushing to the face. Water droplets dripped along the ends of his hair at his feet, and for the first time, Chen Bowen felt unprecedented urgency and helplessness.
