Chapter 140
When Fang Yuan received a call from his mother, he was making a cup of coffee, and he still remembered the strong burnt aroma mixed with the curling heat, and in the next second, his life changed completely.
My father was sentenced to fifteen years by the court.
The mother cried on the phone and said, son, you are fine. If you live your life well, you will be worthy of your parents. Sixty-four, fifteen years, seventy-nine when he was released from prison, he knew what that meant. When he left the Northeast as a teenager, his father was in his forties, with a flat face, dark hair, deep bags under his eyes, and rugged forehead lines, but he was still not very old. Because of the land development project, a large number of people were involved, and he has been guessing and calculating how much money his father is worth taking risks for. The only few times my mother came to visit France ended in a quarrel. Mother always repeated: "You don't understand, do you know what it means to be involuntarily? ”
"Mom, I'll be back." Fang Yuan said this sentence that he had never had the courage to say, and he felt deeply ashamed that he had finally understood some truths when he was forty years old.
"What nonsense are you talking about? What will you come to top for? Didn't your father's hard work come back in vain? “
"I'll take care of this in a month and I'll be back. I brought the money back and my father fought for a reduced sentence. “
Fang Yuan drank half a cup of coffee that didn't have time to add sugar, looked in the mirror, and his face began to have bags under his eyes, and not too rugged, but constantly stretching forehead lines. The pointed church outside the window is reflected in the mirror, and the Eiffel Tower can be seen when you tilt your head. Fang Yuan's appearance followed his father. He knew that his father had made some bad decisions at his age, and he wanted to make the right decision. In the past few years, his mother has put less and less money into his account, and the cycle has become longer and longer. From this alone, he guessed that something was wrong. In fact, since he graduated from college, he has not touched the money from his parents, and even those who are dull know that the money is coming from the wrong way. So from the beginning, he vaguely felt that maybe one day, all retribution would be circular. And where the money comes from, it should go. Mother said that the worst outcome would be to sacrifice the two of them and then ensure that he could live abroad without worry. The best result is that the two of them can retire smoothly and then come to France to retire. For now, things are heading for the worst.
Fortunately, he has made a lot of money over the years. A lot of money, it should be said.
Fang Yuan was in the endless party, greedily absorbing connections and information. In this seemingly advanced era of information, in fact, it is definitely not easy to obtain truly meaningful information. He always knows for the first time that villas in Greece are sought after by Chinese, when is the lowest price in Bordeaux, when is the house in Germany is very stable and there is no risk, Chinese restaurants must be opened in which neighborhood to be prosperous, houses to rent to Singaporeans and Japanese are the safest and safest, which store to buy Rolex Green Water Ghost and Patek Philippe in Switzerland is the cheapest, and the source of the most Chinese buyers is not Shanghai ....... In addition to messing with flowers and grass, he is trying to make money, and earning money is for the sake of messing with flowers and grass, and then he will make better money until he meets He Tiantian.
When He Tiantian first came to France, he didn't look at her a few times, she was just a child raised in a honeypot by countless well-off families, and she would be frightened by thieves and refugees in Paris before long, and then pat her ass and get her diploma back to the greenhouse to continue to grow steadily. But in a smile, he captured the most important thing at his age - innocence. The girl's real, traditional, joys and sorrows, slowly infect herself. Growing up in a honey pot does not prevent her from calculating the rent with the French, working in her spare time to support herself, she rejected her suggestion to provide her with free accommodation, and advocated AA every time she ate, of course, Fang Yuan's machismo did not allow her to accept AA. Her incredibleness blew herself up. Fang Yuan even saw attachment in her, and her attachment to Shanghai made him envious. Most of the people he knew actively sought to leave the motherland, and his words and deeds were always indispensable to make jokes about the motherland, as if he was in the ultimate Eden and laughed at the mainland, and spiritually converted to Europe, he laughed and began to reminisce about his childhood, and then he developed an endless antipathy for them. He Tiantian has complex emotions and contradictory personalities. She is so young, but there is an elusive persistence in her shallow and bottom-out thinking. In the world of flowers, she is like a magnolia, revealing elegance and intellectuality. Even after she returned to China, she became his only bosom friend who could break up kindly.
And this time he was able to make this decision, and the strength he found in her was indispensable.
Fang Yuan sold all the houses in several places in Europe, transferred the Chinese restaurant, and sold the stocks that he had been reluctant to sell, even if he didn't use the money transferred by his mother, he actually raised a huge amount of money in a month. The money would be returned as dirty money, and with the father's cooperation, he might be able to restore some of his freedom.
The date of the ticket reads, June 12.
