Nine idlers

These days, what is the most sensational news in San Francisco? It's not about a company closing down again, or someone discovering a valuable gold mine, but about a person. Richest woman news in the entire western United States.All the industries of the Chen family in Europe, America and Asia in the west, a huge wealth that can shake the political and business circles in the western United States, and a business group that is enough to make any big consortium covet.Now it's all in the hands of a woman.

Dong Guanqing, Alice Dong, this Chinese name and a foreign name accompany this ordinary woman.For a while, it was known by more than [-]% of the people in the West and the entire United States.While many people envied Dong Guanqing and the man who was going to marry her, they couldn't help but wonder what the relationship between the Chen Consortium and this Dong Guanqing was, and why they would pay such a large sum of money to show their favor.Some people think that Dong Guanqing's mother, Sheng Qingping, once lived in the Chen family, and speculate that Dong Guanqing is actually not the daughter of Dong Zhenyu, but the daughter of Chen Jingguo, the president of the Chen Family European Consortium, because Chen Jingguo's share of the many properties donated even exceeds that of Chen Jingguo. Chen Tao, president of the American Consortium.

Regarding her life experience, Dong Guanqing wanted to know more eagerly than anyone else, so on the way home that night, she couldn't wait to ask her parents this question.However, Sheng Qingping still didn't intend to tell her. She just told her that Chen Jingguo was definitely not her biological father, and Dong Zhenyu, who also knew about it, didn't tell Dong Guanqing the secret because of his wife, so he could only give her a sorry look.

Dong Guanqing was very angry at her parents' continued concealment. She didn't talk to her parents for several days, and she didn't even think about participating in the pre-wedding preparations.In addition, because of the huge wealth she has acquired, people around her look at her very strangely. Liu Changwen, who had always ignored her father-in-law, has become very affectionate, almost flattering.She often wondered if Liu Changwen would be so gracious to her if he knew that according to the legal provisions of the transfer letter, only she and her direct blood heirs established after her death were qualified to take charge of those properties.Except for Liu Changwen, businessmen, large and small, in San Francisco have all sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain. All kinds of invitations from the East and the West flew to Dong’s house like snowflakes, including some of the largest consortiums in the United States. The wealth at hand is enough to join their salon.

Dong Guanqing was upset by his own affairs, external affairs, and so on, and even had the urge to escape here immediately and return to Huaxia.For this reason, she discussed with her fiancé and decided to hand everything over to her family, and the two of them went on a pre-wedding excursion to take a walk around and relax, so as to relieve the tension now.Sheng Qingping also agreed with this proposal. After all, she also felt that her daughter's condition was very bad during this period, but with Dong Guanqing's current status, it was impossible to travel alone like this.In order to avoid any accidents, she assigned all five disciples that Zhang Tiezheng personally taught before returning to Sichuan to her daughter, and asked them to protect the couple.

In the past few days, they have been looking for out-of-the-way companions to walk along the way. They have passed through many remote villages, some of which are friendly and some are full of hostility. Although they are not so perfect, they are still happy and relaxed. Even forget the time.Feeling that there were only a few days left before the wedding, they rushed to the nearby city of Fresno overnight, preparing to take the train back to San Francisco tomorrow.

Dong Guanqing and Liu Jincheng are traditional Catholics, but they are also American Methodists.I admire the free thought in it very much.Just this morning, a well-known Methodist pastor in the West came to Fresno to preach.Both of them had heard this man preach before.It felt very good, and they didn't want to give up this opportunity, so they rushed to the church to listen to the lecture, regardless of the fatigue of traveling all night.

In the church, whites, blacks, Indians, and Chinese all sat together. There was no such phenomenon of racial discrimination outside. They were all cheering for the pastor's wonderful speeches, and they also felt mutual gratitude for the touch in each other's hearts.This atmosphere is very mild, which is why Dong Guanqing and his wife chose Methodism as their main religious denomination in the United States.

In the church, while everyone's atmosphere was being aroused by the pastor, the sensitive Dong Guanqing found that in a corner behind the church, a middle-aged Chinese man with two gray manes and a clear temperament seemed out of place.When the people around cheered, he always had a calm face, especially when he looked at the cross of Jesus in the church with disdain, and his eyes always looked at himself, and there seemed to be some strange expression in his eyes emotion.

Although Dong Guanqing knew that he was protected by several skilled bodyguards, he still felt nervous because of this person. After the sermon, he immediately dragged his fiancé to the train station.Board the train back to San Francisco.

"Guan Qing, are you not feeling well? Why are you a little out of your mind?" In the dining car of the train.Liu Jincheng, who had just returned from the bathroom, saw Dong Guanqing staring blankly at the constantly flashing scenery outside the car, and didn't even notice when he got back to his seat, so he asked with concern.

"No, nothing!" Dong Guanqing shook her head hastily, trying her best to conceal her panic.At this time, she even felt a little ashamed, because she felt that her heart had betrayed her fiancé just now.For some reason, the appearance of the middle-aged Chinese man in the church could not help appearing in her mind from just now, and what made her feel even more flustered was that all her previous nervousness had disappeared, and now she felt that the middle-aged man was The Chinese are very kind and familiar, and even have the idea of ​​wanting to see him again.

Although I felt the strangeness of my fiancee.But Liu Jincheng didn't ask too much, he knew very well that his fiancée was a very assertive person, if she wanted to say something, she would naturally say it, those who didn't want to say, even if B asked, she wouldn't say a word, So he could only smile slightly, and then poured a glass of water for his fiancee.Bow down with her to the food on the table in front of you.

Amidst the clatter of knives, forks and plates, the surrounding atmosphere was a little awkward. Dong Guanqing was just chopping and chopping the food in front of the reactionary, without any intention of putting them in his mouth.In the end, she couldn't help it anymore and said, "Did you see that middle-aged Chinese man in the northwest corner of the church?"

Liu Jincheng was stunned, recalled for a while, nodded and said: "I saw it! I was very impressed. There are few Chinese people who are as tall as him. He has a fresh and refined temperament. He should be a man of profound knowledge."

"Yes, that's him." Dong Guanqing nodded.Taking a deep breath, he said, "I don't know why? I have a strange feeling about him, as if I knew him before, and he was very kind."
