Chapter 1: The Family Breaks and Dies
The night sky was dark and cloudy, and there was not a single star in sight.
Suzhou, China, Taihu Lake City villa area on the edge of Taihu Lake.
In the Chen family's villa, Chen Yu stood on the rooftop, looking at the endless night, wandering out of the world. A gust of wind hit, and the leaves of the old banyan tree in the yard fell with the wind, and he couldn't help but shiver.
He wrapped his hand around his clothes and let out a sigh.
Chen Yu is twenty-four years old this year, and he is not eye-catching. He is only 1.7 meters tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his face is a little thin.
I just graduated from Harvard a month ago with a Ph.D. in economics. However, as soon as I was busy with graduation and had no time to relax and rest, I was called back by my parents with a phone call.
Chen Yu is the only child in his family, and his parents quit their jobs at a bank when he was five years old to start a pharmaceutical business. Over the past ten years, the family's business has become bigger and bigger, making Chen's Pharmaceutical the largest enterprise in Suzhou.
Unlike some families, although Chen Yu's parents are busy with business, no matter how busy they are, they will accompany Chen Yu for breakfast and dinner every day, and sometimes they will take Chen Yu out to play together.
From childhood to adulthood, Chen Yu is no different from ordinary children, and the care of his parents has not decreased because of business. If anything, Chen Yu has been very filial since he was a child and understands his parents. At the age of six, he washed his parents' feet, and at the age of eight, he learned to cook and cook for his parents, and even during the rebellious period of all children, Chen Yu was more old and steady than other children.
This time, Chen Yu was called back in such a hurry, also for two things.
The first is to let Chen Yu go home to take over the family's business, but for Chen Yu, who has just graduated and has almost no work experience, the pressure to take over such a huge business can be imagined.
The second is for him and Zhang Ling'er to get engaged. The time is set for tomorrow at noon, and it will be held at the same time. As soon as he thought of this, Chen Yu felt a little upset.
Of course, he was still very happy with Ling Er's wedding. Thinking of the little girl who followed her ass from childhood to adulthood, hung two lines of snot, and shouted Brother Yu every day, the corners of Chen Yu's mouth couldn't help but raise a smile.
The current Zhang Ling'er has fair and smooth skin, black hair like a waterfall reaching to her waist, a fresh and elegant temperament is as beautiful as a fairy, and her height is only one head shorter than Chen Yu.
Chen Yu and Zhang Ling'er are childhood sweethearts, the two have no guesses, they have played since they were children, and even Chen Yu went abroad to study, Zhang Linger followed them.
The two can have such a fate because their grandfather was a comrade-in-arms back then, and their father was a good college classmate. Therefore, before the two were born, they were married by their grandfather.
Later, in order not to interfere with the two, the two families never mentioned this matter. However, Chen Yu and Zhang Ling'er really came together in the end, and this is really impermanent.
Chen Yu stood still without taking a step, his eyes were misty, and his face was full of smiles. Being able to marry such a beautiful and sensible girl as Ling Er into the family, his heart blossomed with happiness.
The mobile phone in Chen Yu's pocket suddenly vibrate, he took it out and saw that it was a call from Zhang Ling'er, and he didn't hesitate to connect the phone.
.....
In Chen Yu's father's study, Chen's mother sat at the table drinking coffee and reading a book. And Chen's father, Chen Xiao, was holding a purple gold gourd in his hand, the size of a palm, and he couldn't stop smiling.
The two chatted a sentence or two from time to time, and everything in and out of the conversation was about Chen Yu's inheritance company and Chen Yu's marriage with Zhang Linger.
.....
Chen Yu hung up the phone, and when he raised his head, there seemed to be a black shadow flashing from the old banyan tree, he looked around, but found nothing. He shook his head, wondering if he was too upset and dazzled.
He put away his phone and turned around to go inside his house to get his car keys. Zhang Ling'er called just now, and said that she was too bored to sleep at night, so Chen Yu had no choice but to go over and play with her, just shopping and watching a movie.
Before leaving, Chen Yu made a special trip to say hello to his parents, so as not to worry too much. When his father Chen Xiao heard that he was going to find Zhang Ling'er, he just smiled and told Chen Yu not to play too late, after all, the daughter of the Zhang family had not passed the door yet, and Zhang Ling'er's parents would be worried if it was too late. When Chen Yu heard his father say this, he smiled awkwardly and turned around and went out.
Chen Yu drove all the way to the vicinity of Su University, at the door of Zhang Ling'er's house. Before I stopped, I saw Zhang Ling'er already standing at the door of the house, wearing a pink dress, standing there pretty.
Chen Yu parked the car, opened the window, and said with a smile to Zhang Ling'er:
"My Majesty, the little one has been ordered to arrive, please get in the car. ”
Zhang Ling'er stretched out her hand and patted Chen Yu's head, and praised:
"Yes, yes, worthy of my brother Yu, the speed is quite fast. ”
Then the two drove to the agreed first stop - to watch a movie. Chen Yu opened the navigation and found the nearest movie theater nearby, it is said that the "Notes on Tomb Robbery" by the third uncle of the southern school has been made into a movie and is being screened. The most important thing is that Zhang Ling'er's family shouted several times to go and see, but unfortunately the two have been busy since they went home and can't find free time.
When she arrived at the door of the movie theater, Zhang Ling'er was anxious to get out of the car before the car stopped, which made Chen Yu cry and laugh, and when the car was stopped, Zhang Ling'er pulled Chen Yu all the way to the movie theater.
.....
In the Chen family's villa, Chen Xiao put away the gourd he was playing with, leaned over and carefully placed it on the table. He has such a hobby in his life, he likes to collect some strange things, and Chen's mother has no objection, and even supports it.
Chen Xiao raised his head, shrank back from the chair, and at some point, in the place where Chen's mother was sitting before, a man wearing a black top hat and a black suit was sitting there, facing Chen Xiao, and he couldn't see his face clearly.
"Who are you?" Chen Xiao is worthy of being a person who has been working hard for many years, and calmed down after being a little frightened.
The man in the suit didn't speak, his figure moved, and a black shadow flashed, and he was already sitting next to Chen Xiao. Chen Xiao was shocked, and before he could make any movement, the man's left arm waved, and a bright light flashed, crossing Chen Xiao's neck. At the same time, the man said leisurely:
"The one who took your life. ”
"Lao Chen, your ginseng tea is here. ”
"Bang Bang ....."
Chen's mother's voice came from the door, and when she saw Chen Xiao lying on the chair with her head tilted and the man in a suit sitting on the side, she was so frightened that she threw away the teacup in her hand, and the tea was scattered on the ground, Chen's mother turned around and ran downstairs.
The man in the suit shook his head, opened the drawer and took out the purple gold gourd, put it in the pocket of his clothes, and chased after Chen's mother. After a few dodges, the man came behind Chen's mother, only to see Chen's mother's figure stunned, straight down, her eyes widened, and a trace of blood oozing from her throat.
.....
After accompanying Zhang Ling'er to watch the movie and shopping for a while, Chen Yu sent her home. Not long after leaving Zhang's house, Chen Yu's right eye kept jumping, and he felt a little depressed, as if something had happened, he couldn't help but speed up.
When the car arrived at Youxin Elevated, Chen Yu's phone rang, and when he saw that it was the phone at home, he immediately turned on the amplification to answer. At this time, one or two fuel tankers in the rear suddenly accelerated and chased after Chen Yu's car.
"Hey, Uncle Li, I'm on my way home, what's the matter?"
"Young master, both the master and the wife were killed. ”
On the other side of the phone, a man's sad voice came.
"Ahh
Chen Yu was shocked, his heart ached slightly, his hand suddenly couldn't grip the steering wheel tightly, and the speed of the car also accelerated.
The car fell, Chen Yu's eyes were dark, and he no longer knew who was going to know.
