After Chen Hai talked to the female employee of Hongtu, he did not wait for any reply for four hours.

Think about it, what age is it now, and parents who are not picking up their children from school go to the company to inquire about their brother, how can they be valued?

Chen Hai was lying on the bed, and his mobile phone was thrown to the head of the bed, making a sound of lack of electricity.

Today's weather is gloomy, the capital has issued a haze warning, and the news is broadcasting the news of vigorously rectifying the ban on straw burning.

Just when he gave up on the clue and decided to start somewhere else, suddenly, his phone rang again.

"Hello?"

He answered the phone, and a female voice came from the phone:

"Hello? I'm Qin Yunchu, you said you were Chen Ya's younger brother? ”

He swore that it was the best he had ever heard since he was born.

Crisp as a silver bell, fresh as spring rain, gentle with firmness.

The most important thing is that when he heard the words "Qin Yunchu", Chen Hai's hand holding the mobile phone began to be unstable.

"You are Qin Yunchu?" Chen Hai felt that his voice was shaking, "Are you really the little Qin president of Hongtu?" ”

"Yes, it's me, you inquired about Chen Ya's news, is there anything wrong?" Qin Yunchu's firm voice came from there.

“……”

I had thought about it with a full stomach, but I didn't expect him to be speechless for a while.

yes, what are you trying to do by making this call?

said that he knew about Chen Ya's situation, he was his younger brother, and he still needed to ask his company for news?

said that he wanted to ask about the relationship between Chen Ya and Beichen...... Then you go and ask Beichen, what does it have to do with my grand plan?

And what is this matter, it actually alarmed the vice president, how could the vice president know about Chen Ya's situation?

…… Wait, why did the vice president know Chen Ya?

Chen Hai asked tentatively and politely, "Do you know Chen Ya?" ”

"Of course I know Chen Ya, otherwise why would I answer the phone?" Qin Yunchu played with the pen in his hand, "What's wrong with Chen Ya?" ”

"Oh, Chen Ya, what level is he at Hongtu?" Chen Hai asked again.

Qin Yunchu thought for a while and said, "The matter you asked involves Chen Ya's privacy, but what I can tell you is that he belongs to a fairly high-level employee in Hongtu, which is transparent and can be found on the official website, and the rest, I can't tell you." ”

Chen Hai hurriedly waved his hand (although the other party couldn't see it): "No, no, I don't want to inquire about privacy, here's how it ......"

He cleared his throat, quickly used his brain, and sorted out a set of words:

"That's right, I'm Chen Ya's younger brother, Chen Ya is my brother, but when we were very young, we were separated because of our parents, and we only met recently, so I don't know anything about his current situation."

Qin Yunchu was interested, and she was also very interested in Chen Ya's situation when he was a child, and said, "Really? And then what? ”

“…… We are all in the capital, so naturally we hope that he can also take root in the capital, but he has never wanted to leave Hongtu, so we want to know about his work in Hongtu. ”

As soon as Qin Yunchu heard this, he immediately knew it.

You want to rob people, right? So how could it be possible for you to bother Chen Ya?

"As I just said, Chen Ya works very well in Hongtu, he is a fairly high-level cadre, and at his age, there are very few people who have climbed to this level, so it is quite rare."

When Chen Hai heard this, he had a rough idea in his heart, and asked again:

"However, I take the liberty to ask, he is only a junior high school graduate, of course, I definitely don't mean to question the logic of Hongtu's employment, I'm purely curious - how did he make such rapid progress in Hongtu?"

Qin Yunchu immediately said: "Chen Ya has a very strong ability to work, our grand plan has always been not only academic qualifications, but only ability, he can bring a lot to the company, of course, we also have to match him with the treatment he pays." ”

Chen Hai asked again: "However, as far as I know, in terms of recruitment conditions, Hongtu has a minimum of bachelor's degree, master's and doctor's degrees, and junior high school graduates...... You can't even reach the threshold, right? ”

This made Qin Yunchu hesitate for a while, and it took a long time to reply: "Chen Ya, he can be admitted to the adult undergraduate, and the adult undergraduate will then study part-time graduate school, and our company will also recognize the graduate degree." ”

"Oh, Chen Ya is an adult undergraduate and then took the non-full ......"

"Not really, I'm just giving an example."

“……”

In principle, Hongtu Company will of course recognize part-time academic qualifications, and if you have such a degree as a stepping stone, you will also receive an examination notice.

But whether you will be admitted or not, that, of course, is another question. Under the same conditions, the company is of course more inclined to be admitted to full-time graduate school.

Qin Yunchu changed his words and asked rhetorically: "You are Chen Ya's younger brother, that is to say, you know him very well when he was a child, right?" ”

Chen Hai immediately nodded: "Yes." ”

In fact, he had almost forgotten about it, but of course he couldn't say that he didn't understand.

Qin Yunchu asked with great interest, "What was he like when he was a child?" How did he grow up? Do you know why you dropped out of junior high school and stopped studying? ”

This series of questions made Chen Hai a little confused.

He originally thought that Qin Yunchu only had a business understanding of Chen Ya, but judging from her series of questions, he suddenly had an illusion, as if he was ......

She still cares about Chen Ya?

"Uh, what are you asking all this for?"

Qin Yunchu's words were stagnant, and then he said: "Oh, that's the case, we will inspect the performance of employees every year, in order to accurately understand the behavior of employees, so as to make appropriate evaluations, I, as Chen Ya's boss, naturally want to know more about the family background and growth experience of employees......

Qin Yunchu persuaded Chen Hai, and Chen Hai said honestly: "My brother has been very domineering since he was a child......

Chen Hai talked about all kinds of interesting things about Chen Ya when he was a child, and also talked about his poor family, and more focused on how he was bullied by Chen Ya when he was a child.

Of course, due to the passage of time, after he later went to the capital, the memories of the past were gradually overwritten, and the memories of the past were marked with a warm halo.

This leads to the childhood he describes, which is much better than the real situation.

They actually had a harder childhood, but he forgot the not-so-good parts of it.

His story ends when he was taken away from the mountain village by his father. Of course, he didn't mention the reason why his father left the mountain village, nor did he mention that he was crying and shouting to leave with his father.

In his narrative, it is as if the divorce and separation of his parents is a force majeure, a separation of flesh and blood caused by helplessness.

After listening, Qin Yunchu was silent for a long time.

As the eldest lady of the Qin family who has been clothed and fed since she was a child, she naturally couldn't imagine everything Chen Hai narrated.

She just forcibly corresponded to the stories in Chen Hai's narration one by one through the modern mountain village she had seen with her own eyes in "Poetic Life".

Even though Chen Hai's story has been beautified a hundred times, she still feels that life is very difficult.

She couldn't figure out how Chen Ya could write so many sensational works under the pseudonyms Jin Yong and Gu Cage.

I can't think of how a family with no music genes can cultivate a world-class musician JX.

"Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin, are you still there?"

Chen Hai's voice woke Qin Yunchu up, Qin Yunchu came back to his senses and said, "Okay, I probably understand, thank you for telling me so much." ”

Chen Hai smiled, touched his head and said, "I'm still very embarrassed, I have said so much at length, and there is no point, so I can always listen patiently." ”

Qin Yunchu's face flushed, and he said, "No, what you said is very vivid and interesting, it just happens to be what I want to know, thank you......"

She whispered "thank you", which inexplicably made Chen Hai's heart flutter.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin, not many people are willing to listen to what happened when I was a child, most people in the capital only like to listen to the story of the angry horse in fresh clothes, the growth history of a rural little child, not many people are willing to stop, I want to thank you for listening today."

Qin Yunchu muttered: "No, that's because they are too narrow-minded, I think everything you said makes me feel ...... Immerse. ”

A picture seemed to emerge in her mind: a child in loose clothes, unkempt hair, hands in pockets, a face full of confusion, but a rebellious face, like the master of the world.

And many years later, he really dominated one field after another in this world step by step......

However, Chen Hai naturally didn't know about her mental activities, and he thought that Qin Yunchu simply liked to listen to his stories, and his heart suddenly bloomed.

He forcibly suppressed his excitement, his voice trembled, and said cautiously: "I hope that there will be a chance to share the story with you." ”

"Hmm." Qin Yunchu nodded casually and hung up the phone.

Hearing the busy sound of "all dudu" on the other end of the phone, Chen Hai only felt that the rhythm was secretly in line with his heartbeat.

He let out a long sigh of happiness and fell headlong on the bed, his face and stubble rubbing against the soft quilt, and the smile on his face did not fade for a long time.

Qin Yunchu, the legendary Qin Yunchu, actually chatted with her for half an hour!

Moreover, she still seems to be unsatisfied, and she has agreed to talk to her next time!

What a blessing this is! In this foggy weather, this sudden small fortune is as exciting as the sun penetrating the clouds.

Chen Hai breathed heavily, slapping his hot face with his hands, as if trying to catch the ebbing water, desperately trying to retain the feeling of the moment.

"Qin Yunchu, Mr. Qin, Mr. Xiao Qin, Yun Chu, Yun Chu, Yun Chu...... Hehe, Qin Yunchu ......"

Chen Hai silently read Qin Yunchu's name and repeated the conversation just now over and over again.

"What you said was very vivid and interesting, and it was exactly what I wanted to know, thank you...... Hey, hey, hey......"

"Brother, did you see my shower cap?"

When Chen Hai was lying on the bed, his thoughts were flying, Lu Qianzi suddenly broke into the door and was startled when he saw Chen Hai with a red face with happiness.

"What are you doing? How about this expression? It's disgusting......"

Chen Hai glared angrily at Lu Qianzi, who suddenly ran over to disturb his daydream: "Don't you know how to knock on the door?" ”

Lu Qianzi looked at him with disgust: "What are you doing?" Why are you so happy eating bee droppings? ”

"Go, go, you have to take care of it." Chen Hai expected to be rough.

"Inexplicable...... Lu Qianzi went out and came back, "Where is my shower cap?" ”

"Who knows, who do you ask me and I ask?"

Lu Qianzi slammed the door angrily and left, and the room finally returned to calm. Chen Hai lay in silence.

For him, this is a very important moment in his life, because after losing the goal of "becoming a real Beichen person", he has set an even more ambitious goal -

Become a man worthy of Qin Yunchu.

……

Lu Qianzi sorted out her clothes and went downstairs to the living room, Chen Sheng was sighing.

Completely different from Chen Hai in the room who has a happy face and has reshaped his life goals, he is still in the stage of collapse of his outlook on life and worldview.

He is different from Chen Hai who realized it later, at the banquet, he kept pouting Chen Hai to toast Wei Mingzhe, but he knew that the real pain point was not Wei Mingzhe.

If the whole thing is a glorious "Three Kingdoms" game, then Wei Mingzhe can only be regarded as Li Dian of the first level, which looks scary on the surface, but in front of the real boss, it is not enough to see at all.

In the whole incident, the real actor behind the scenes is his son, Chen Ya.

Wei Mingzhe's work was introduced by Chen Ya.

What level of introduction can allow Wei Mingzhe to bypass Beichen's recruitment process and be hired directly?

What level of introduction can make Wei Mingzhe the leadership as soon as he enters Beichen?

Chen Sheng couldn't even think about it.

If it were an ordinary father, he might cry with joy when he learned that his son actually had such a wrist, and he would tear up all the toilet paper in the house and throw it into the air with urinary incontinence......

But Chen Sheng is different.

In Chen Sheng's heart, he was ashamed of Chen Ya.

This kind of shame is like a maggot on the tarsal bone, invisible on the surface, but has actually subtly penetrated into the bone marrow, if it peels off layer by layer like an onion to reveal the most central part, that part is-

Fear.

He was very afraid of Chen Ya's real meteoric prosperity.

Back then, he abandoned his wife and children and left the small mountain village, and took Chen Hai and his sister Chen Chi to the capital alone, wandering among the alleys and wine shops, looking for nobles who could change his life against the sky.

finally met a Lu Ruixiang, and finally encountered a gamble worth pressing for a lifetime.

So he really pressed his life, and he was rich, and he was shrinking his head to live an enviable life......

But now tell him that the awesome character he couldn't dream of was actually the son he left in the small mountain village??!

Then he will doubt, doubt what he is paying so much for.

It's better not to come.

So instead of knowing how awesome Chen Ya's background is, it is better to tell him personally, in fact, Chen Ya is not so awesome.

It can also give him a little psychological comfort.

Lu Qianzi went downstairs, saw Chen Sheng's ugly face, walked over and asked, "Dad, what's wrong?" ”

"Huh? Akane, it's nothing. Chen Sheng was holding a phone book in his hand, and he was about to sweat.

"It's nothing, why is your face so ugly?" Lu Qianzi looked at him for a long time, "Is it for that day's dinner?" ”

Chen Sheng first shook his head, then nodded again, hesitated for a long time before he said:

"You say, Chen Ya, what kind of identity is he?"

When Lu Qianzi heard this, she immediately said: "Harm, it turns out that you have been so worried these days because of your brother's affairs." ”

Chen Sheng smiled reluctantly.

Lu Qianzi said again: "Actually, I know a little. ”

"What do you know?" Chen Sheng immediately asked.

Compared with Chen Sheng's violent reaction, Lu Qianzi said casually: "I wanted to tell you before, but you have always ignored me, I went out with Brother Chen Ya that day, only to find out that he is actually the owner of a company." ”

"What company?"

"A jewelry company, very powerful." Lu Qianzi said, "I also make jewelry for the British royal family." ”

Chen Sheng didn't know much about the jewelry company, and his attention was not on this, but he just asked, "Does this company have anything to do with Beichen?" ”

"Beichen? What does it have to do with Beichen? Lu Qianzi wondered, this question confused her.

Chen Sheng frowned and said: "Chen Ya can recommend Wei Mingzhe to Beichen for an important position, he must have something to do with Beichen!" ”

After hearing this, Lu Qianzi raised her eyebrows and said, "Is there one?" I don't think it has to do with anything, so I said that Jiang Lizhi is very powerful, and I think it's normal that a high-end jewelry company has connections with the top management of other companies. ”

"Is that so?" Chen Sheng was stunned.

Lu Qianzi nodded and said: "Yes, besides, you said that my uncle is nothing, I don't agree, a company like Beichen, if it is the kind of company that can casually stuff grass into it, will it still be so strong?" ”

Chen Sheng was stunned.

"Dad, you should look at your uncle," Lu Qianzi said seriously, "I have always felt that my aunt is a very wise woman, why should she hold on to her uncle who is nothing in your eyes?" I think my uncle definitely has his strengths. ”

After listening to his daughter's words, Chen Sheng also began to use his brain to think.

"At the dinner that day, you asked my uncle a lot of questions, in my opinion, they are all very complicated questions, and my uncle can answer them one by one, you know, he has only been in the job for half a day at that time! It took half a day to figure this out, don't you think it's amazing? ”

After Lu Qianzi finished speaking, she said: "I always hear everyone say how powerful Beichen is, isn't it the strength of this company that can unearth buried talents like my uncle?" Why do you have to feel that you have gone through the back door and entrusted the relationship? ”

Speaking of which, Chen Sheng was finally convinced.

"Akaneko...... You've really grown up. ”

"Of course, they're all twenty, and they won't grow up until they grow up." Lu Qianzi said, "Dad, I'm hungry." ”

"Okay," Chen Sheng stood up and walked happily to the kitchen, "Then I'll cook." ”

Although he still had some concerns, the knot in his heart was already half opened.

Chen Ya said that there was something on the Lu family's side, and he didn't come back for dinner, but he was relieved, and after preparing the meal, Lu Ruixiang also came back, and the family was on the table, only one Chen Hai was missing.

"Why did Chen Hai go, why didn't he come down to eat?" Lu Ruixiang frowned and asked, "Who is calling to ask?" ”

The mobile phone numbers of the four of them are a one-to-three package, and they don't need to pay for each other, and they live in a duplex building, so there are often things that happen when they call at home.

Just as Lu Qianzi was about to take out her mobile phone, Chen Hai appeared from the second floor.

He stood on the second floor, like a Buddha statue, overlooking a family of three.

"Today is a special day." Chen Hai stretched out his hand, in the air, as if announcing something.

"What are you doing?"

In the stunned eyes of the three people, Chen Haishi Shiran went downstairs, sat down at the table, and wrote lightly:

"I just finished talking to Qin Yunchu on the phone."

"Which Qin Yunchu?" Chen Sheng asked.

"There is only one Qin Yunchu in this world, and she is unique." Chen Hai said.

Lu Qianzi covered her mouth: "Is that Mr. Xiao Qin?" Someone who has been on "Poetic Life", you talk to her on the phone? ”

"Yes." Chen Hai nodded silently.

"Oh my god! Brother, when did you become so promising? Lu Qianzi said.

Chen Sheng and Lu Ruixiang looked at each other, and then, they were also overjoyed at the same time.

"How did you guys talk?"

"Is there a business cooperation?"

Faced with the urgent questions of his parents, Chen Hai was not in a hurry, took a bite of food into his bowl, and said simply:

"I talked to her for about half an hour, and she loved talking to me, and I ...... I don't hide it, I have a good impression of her. ”

Lu Qianzi was stunned and said, "Brother, are you sure it's not your own whimsy?" ”

Lu Ruixiang slapped her void: "Don't look down on your brother so much, your brother is still very good." ”

Chen Sheng smiled, and the haze in his heart was swept away: "Yes, yes, your brother is very promising!" ”

To them, Qin Yunchu was simply a legendary existence.

used to talk about finding a daughter-in-law for Chen Hai, and he often joked that he could only look at it like Miss Qin, but it was a joke after all, and no one took it seriously.

Who would have thought that today was really a happy event, and he really chatted with Qin Yunchu, and it was half an hour to chat.

Chen Hai held the bowl and said solemnly: "Today, I have set a new goal for my life. So, today, is a special day. ”

After a pause, he glanced around at everyone before saying, "I want to become, a man worthy of Mr. Xiao Qin." ”

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Chen Sheng put down the bowl quickly and applauded loudly: "Man, you have to be ambitious, look at me, this virtue has not caught up with your mother." ”

Lu Ruixiang scolded with a smile: "Can that be the same?" Qin Yunchu is the eldest lady of the Qin family. ”

"But our Chen Hai is not bad!" Chen Sheng raised his voice, then lowered his voice, and whispered to Chen Haidao, "Smash, come on, dad has no ability in this life, try his best, and can only provide you with such a platform, but Dad is willing to use everything to support you, if you like it, just chase it!" Whether you can chase it or not, in short, don't let people regret it! ”

Chen Hai's gaze was resolute: "Hmm." That's nature. ”

The family dinner was filled with a happy atmosphere. Chen Sheng's heart was swept away because of the haze of one son and the appearance of another son.

He firmly believes that Chen Hai must have a bright future.

……

As the night progresses, the weather becomes cooler.

Chen Ya and Lu Qingxuan stood on the ridge, facing the wind, wrapping their clothes tighter.

Lu Qingxuan, who was wearing long boots, stomped on the frozen ground to make his body warmer, tilted his head and asked Chen Ya:

"This light should be fine, right? Why don't you call now? ”

The two waited until it was dark, probably because she had consumed more, and she felt her stomach growling, but fortunately, she was wearing enough clothes that Chen Ya couldn't hear it.

Chen Ya looked up at the sky and said, "Let's fight." ”

Lu Qingxuan took out his mobile phone and dialed Lu Xiaojie's phone, while Chen Ya placed fireworks on the side.

"Hey, look out the window, keep an eye on ...... Forget it, you just shoot a video. ”

Hanging up the phone, Lu Qingxuan's hand stretched out from his sleeve, made an "ok" gesture to Chen Ya, and then spread his legs and ran to the field.

Chen Ya lit the fireworks, then stepped back and stood one meter away from Lu Qingxuan. Lu Qingxuan walked over and stood side by side with him.

"Did you light it?"

"Ignited. The leads are long. ”

"Shall we stand a little farther then?"

"No, it's more spectacular from below."

"Really?"

"I don't know."

Lu Qingxuan remembered a Japanese anime, "The fireworks that take off are seen from below or from the side", and she didn't know why, anyway, today was from below, and when the old lady's birthday banquet was held, she watched it from the side.

Suddenly, a loud bang exploded in his ears, making Lu Qingxuan tremble.

Fireworks rose into the air like meteors, and burst into the air.

The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and blows down, and the stars are like rain.

A pair of warm palms were placed on Lu Qingxuan's ears and covered her ears.

Lu Qingxuan only felt that his heart was beating wildly, and the sound of blood agitation hit his eardrums, almost overshadowing the explosion of fireworks.

She slowly reached out her hands and fumbled backwards, also on the ears of the man behind her.

Maybe the fireworks in the sky are all magnificent from the side or below, and maybe the fireworks on the day of the birthday banquet are far less deafening than tonight.

Lu Qingxuan only knew that Chen Ya looked up at the fireworks that were like meteors flying backwards into the sky, and his face was full of colorful light, but she didn't look at the fireworks, just looked at his side face full of colorful fireworks.
