Chapter 53

Cheng Yuan and Wu Yue switched positions again.While driving, Wu Yue scolded Cheng Yuan: "I really admire you, you dare to turn off the engine in the middle of the road."

Cheng Yuan said dissatisfiedly: "Who told you to direct blindly? We have already missed an intersection, and I am afraid to miss it again."

Wu Yue was still smirking, Cheng Yuan looked at her meaningfully, and murmured: "Actually, this kind of mood is similar to what I am now, and I am also afraid of missing you..."

Wu Yue was stunned for a moment, stopped the car and said, "Jingshan Park is here!"

Cheng Yuan swallowed the latter words back.

The two entered the park and talked while walking.

Wu Yue explained to Cheng Yuan: "This is Jingshan Park. Standing on Jingshan Mountain, you can see the entire Forbidden City, the former home of the emperor. There is also an old crooked neck tree inside, which is said to be the place where the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty committed suicide. "

"Oh? Why did he commit suicide?" Cheng Yuan knew nothing about Chinese history.

"Ming Dynasty is finished in his hands, he still doesn't commit suicide!"

"Then the emperor must be very stupid."

Wu Yue thought for a while and said: "It seems that he is not completely a fool. I heard from Pingshu that Emperor Chongzhen sent away his favorite woman, Chen Yuanyuan, in order to concentrate on governing the country. But the people under the dynasty rebelled. The ethnic minorities took the opportunity to attack, internal and external troubles, he alone can't revive the rivers and mountains."

Cheng Yuan was stunned, looked at Jingshan, and felt that his current state of mind was similar to that of Emperor Chongzhen.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Wu Yue found that Cheng Yuan was in a daze.

Cheng Yuan calmed down and said, "Your story makes me feel a little scared."

"Haha, fear, don't you think of yourself as Emperor Chongzhen?" Wu Yue said jokingly.

Cheng Yuan smiled in relief: "Of course not, let's go on."

Wu Yue stood in front of Cheng Yuan seriously, and said earnestly: "Why do I feel that you are always unhappy when we meet this time, as if you are full of worries. What happened? Tell me, don't hold it in your heart."

Cheng Yuan smiled and said: "I like to listen to you now. Do you know? Your storytelling is very good."

Wu Yue said angrily: "Hmph, if you don't tell me, I won't tell you either. Let's listen to the next chapter and break it down."

Cheng Yuan laughed, and Wu Yue scolded: "Laugh! Laugh! Laugh! You just know how to laugh foolishly, I'll ignore you!" As she spoke, she walked to the front first.

Seeing Wu Yue like this, Cheng Yuan laughed even more, he just likes Wu Yue like this, sometimes he is mature like an adult, sometimes he is heartless and cute like a child.

"Wu Yue!" Cheng Yuan yelled, followed quickly, and the two walked side by side in the park again.

After waiting for a full day without seeing Wu Yue, Li Kejin fell asleep lying on the dining table.Xiaohu came to his side, pushed him lightly, Li Kejin woke up suddenly, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and asked quickly: "Wu Yue is back?"

Xiaohu shook his head and said, "She hasn't come back to the store yet. Brother, why don't you go home and sleep, it's so awkward to sleep like this."

"It's okay, I'll wait for her here."

"That's all, I don't think she will come back here."

Li Kejin immediately stood up and said, "Your reminder makes sense, then I'm leaving." He took out the money and put it on the table, and walked out.

Xiaohu asked, "Brother, where are you going?"

"I'll go to her house and wait for her."

Xiaohu gave Li Kejin a thumbs up at Li Kejin's back: "It's really amazing! I'm convinced!"

Wu Yue's minivan was parked outside the hotel building, Wu Yue pretended to be polite and said: "Our one-day trip to Beijing is here today. Sir, you can get off the car."

"Hehe, this is the happiest day I've ever been in Beijing." Cheng Yuan said with concern, "You're tired, go up and have a rest."

Wu Yue said impatiently: "Why do you keep asking me if I'm tired? It's like I'm an old lady. Go back and have a good rest by yourself. If you sneak out again at night to fool around or fight with others, don't forget to mention my name." "

Cheng Yuan laughed: "I'm afraid I will be beaten even worse."

Wu Yue frowned and thought for a while, "That's true." She took out a note and handed it to Cheng Yuan, saying, "This is my home address and phone number. If you need anything, you can call me."

Cheng Yuan took it over and said, "I have the address... it would be great if you could give me the phone number earlier."

Wu Yue said with a smile: "I won't give it to you. If I gave it to you earlier, you wouldn't have annoyed me to death."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll bother you now?"

Wu Yue said helplessly: "Now there is no way, who bothered you to come to my house! Do you know? We Beijingers are the most hospitable. When friends come, they have good wine, and when wolves come, they have shotguns!"

Cheng Yuan suddenly became deep, looked at Wu Yue and said, "Wu Yue, you know, I don't want to just be your friend!"

Wu Yue was silent for a while, raised her head and said: "I know! But you are obviously not here for me this time. First, you should take care of your own business, our business, and talk about it later! Goodbye, sleep well Good sleep."

Cheng Yuan nodded: "Go back and drive slowly."

"Don't worry!" Wu Yue drove out leisurely in the small container truck.

Cheng Yuan stood there, reluctantly returning to the room until the small container truck disappeared.As soon as he got back to the room, he started calling: "I'm Cheng Yuan, I want you to check the information for me immediately, I want to find the best neurologist and orthopedic doctor in the world..."

61．your world

On Jinchan Island, the Seventh Uncle's villa was heavily guarded, and several bodyguards armed with guns patrolled back and forth inside and outside the courtyard walls.

A sleeping car slowly drove into the gate, and Maquina and Uncle Qi sat in the car together, with a dignified atmosphere.

Ma Kuina asked calmly, "Have you found Cheng Yuan?"

"Not yet." Seventh Uncle remained motionless with no expression on his face.

"Your Cheng family has lost Mr. Cheng now, what should we do?"

"Don't worry, no one in the Cheng family dares to talk nonsense anymore." Uncle Qi said proudly, as if he regarded himself as Mr. Cheng.

Maquina said mockingly: "I can rest assured, can you rest assured?"

Uncle Qi stopped talking, and the complacent look just now was fleeting. He sighed and closed his eyes habitually.After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "As for the four major banks, I need you to come forward and help me suppress it."

"The Cheng family's debt, do you still plan to carry on like this?"

Uncle Qi sighed and said, "Who made me a member of the Cheng family? This burden can only be placed on the shoulders of an old man, until the day I lie down."

"You have been supporting the Cheng family all these years, but it's a pity that you are only short of one title. As long as Cheng Yuan is still around, you will never be able to become the real Mr. Cheng." Ma Kuina's words were full of provocation.

"When we old guys are all retired, the world is his, and he can do whatever he wants. This kid just can't wait, these little foreigners have to rush forward in everything, and they don't always understand the truth of haste makes waste ..."

Uncle Qi's subordinates hurried over, leaned over Uncle Qi through the car window and said, "Mr. Cheng's secretary received a call just now, and we monitored it."

Uncle Qi was taken aback for a moment, and then regained his energy: "Where did you call from?"

"We checked the calling number, it's Beijing."

Uncle Qi glanced at Ma Kuina.

Maquina thought for a while, and said, "After all, it's not convenient for you to make a move. Let me handle this matter."

Uncle Seven stared at Ma Kuina blankly, but said nothing.

Wu Yue pushed the door open and entered the house, and saw Li Kejin sitting at the dining table, exchanging cups with Wu's father.Wu Yue stared wide-eyed and asked, "Why are you here?"

Father Wu hurriedly stopped in front and said, "I invited Xiao Li to come over for dinner."

Wu's mother chimed in and said, "If you want to drink in the future, you can come to the house to drink."

Wu Yue pulled up a chair and sat down at the dining table, and taught Li Kejin: "You have a little memory, okay? You drank it all yesterday, and you still drink it today?"

Li Kejin quickly put down his glass: "Then I won't drink anymore!"

Wu's father winked at Wu's mother: "You talk first, I'll go out for a walk with your mother." The old couple went out smiling.

Wu Yue couldn't help laughing: "Li Kejin, you're here to drink and fight now, it's really like what the little tiger said, you're almost a big brother."

Li Kejin was silent for a while, then raised his head and asked, "Did you meet him again today?"

Wu Yue: "..."

Li Kejin sighed and said, "I knew that you couldn't escape that Cheng! You... just woke up from a dream, and you're going back to it again!"

Wu Yue said unhappily: "Hey, hey, you are not angry! You beat me like that and they didn't fight back, and they didn't say anything about you. You nagging me, don't you really think I'm your daughter again? friend?"

Li Kejin argued: "Then you are not his girlfriend, you are with him, who are you?"

"It's a friend!" Wu Yue said angrily.

Li Kejin boldly said: "Then I am his friend's fiance."

Wu Yue slapped the table and said loudly, "What are you talking about, Li Kejin!"

Li Kejin was taken aback, and said tremblingly, "Yes, it's the ex-husband..."

Wu Yue stood up and shouted: "Hey, believe it or not, I'll beat you up!"

Li Kejin said fearfully: "I mean...the ex-fiancé."

Seeing Li Kejin's angry and funny look, Wu Yue sat down and said, "I also treat you as a friend now, if you keep talking nonsense like this, I won't talk to you anymore!"

Wu Yue showed a cute look, Li Kejin looked at her affectionately and said: "To be honest, Cheng Yuan came to find you, I am really scared."

"He's not a monster, he can't eat me, what's so scary?"

"I'm afraid you'll be hurt."

Wu Yue said with some emotion: "Don't worry, I'm not that easy to be hurt."

"We have been together for so many years, but I actually know you best. You are tough on the outside, but softer on the inside than anyone else!"

Wu Yue got up and said, "Forget it, you can go quickly, I'm tired all day today, I want to sleep!"

Li Kejin stood up and said: "Yes, yes, you must have a good rest, I am leaving." He thought for a while, then turned around and said seriously: "Wu Yue, I want to tell you that no matter what happens to you in the future, I will I will stay by your side, and I will do my best to love and protect you!"

Li Kejin walked out, Wu Yue called out.Li Kejin stopped and turned to look at Wu Yue.

Maybe Wu Yue felt a little guilty, and told her: "Don't pretend to be a hero in the future, if you really fight, you won't be able to fight far!"

Li Kejin nodded with a smile. It was this humble sentence that warmed his heart.

Wu Yue was about to go to bed after taking a shower when the phone rang.Cheng Yuan asked over there: "Are you free tomorrow? If you're not too tired, I'd like to see Beijing..."

With a rippling smile on Wu Yue's face, she said, "Okay! Didn't I tell you that! I'm your tour guide in Beijing."

The garden in the middle of the street is very lively. There are piles of people playing chess, some exercising on public sports equipment, some walking their dogs with their children, and some dancing ballroom dancing for the elderly...

Wu Yue talked endlessly, Cheng Yuan was mostly listening quietly.

"When I was a child, my grandfather's house was in this area, and the other side is Houhai. It's strange that there is a sea in Beijing, right? This sea is different from the sea in your place. It's called the sea. It's actually a big lake, but you can also swim and row there. .I'll take you around at night, there are many bars, very lively." Wu Yue said enthusiastically.

Cheng Yuan was a little stunned: "The bar... seems to be far away from me!" He remembered the time he and Wu Yue went to the bar on Jinchan Island.

"Do you think that everyone here is very leisurely and happy? Do you know why? Because they are ordinary people. My grandfather and his old buddies used to gather here every morning, walk the birds, chat, I come here to play chess and drink tea in the evening, all I want is a carefree life!"

Cheng Yuan smiled and said, "What do you want to tell me?"

Wu Yue suddenly became serious: "I want to say that happiness cannot be bought with money, you have to experience it with your heart!"

Cheng Yuan asked discreetly, "Then where is your grandfather now?"

"Not long after my grandma passed away, she left with my grandma. In fact, my grandma is the daughter of a rich family. The family used to be very rich. When she was in love with my grandpa, the whole family opposed it. She left home and was willing to live with my grandpa. The lives of ordinary people. Later, her natal family fell into ruin, and she was the only one who lived happily and peacefully with her grandpa all her life."

Cheng Yuan became sad, and muttered to himself: "If Yuna is a child of an ordinary family, she can live a life in peace."

"What did you say?"

Cheng Yuan regained his composure and said, "I said, I also want to live this kind of life."

Wu Yue laughed: "You, you can't! As long as you are Mr. Cheng for a day, you will not be able to live such a life. Let's just say that you stand here, and you obviously have a different temperament from everyone, because you don't belong here! Yes Now, look carefully, people here look at you differently."

At this time, two capable young men appeared not far away, looking around.Cheng Yuan vigilantly pulled Wu Yue to walk in another direction.

Wu Yue asked puzzledly: "What's wrong?"

"I saw a few people who also didn't belong here."

Cheng Yuan pulled Wu Yue out of the street garden from the other side.

Suddenly a black car came and stopped in front of them, and a person got out of the car.Cheng Yuan's face changed slightly, and he subconsciously stood in front of Wu Yue.

The person who got out of the car stepped forward friendly and whispered a few words in Cheng Yuan's ear. Cheng Yuan nodded and turned to Wu Yue and said, "Go back first, I want to meet a friend with him."

"There are still many places I haven't shown you around."

Cheng Yuan smiled and said, "I'll contact you when I'm done."

Wu Yue looked suspicious: "Are you okay?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine!" Cheng Yuan's face was relaxed, and Wu Yue was relieved.

The car stopped in front of a restaurant, and Cheng Yuan was ushered into the teahouse.

Mr. Ji sat quietly, watching the service staff performing tea ceremony with a smile, and offered his seat when he saw Cheng Yuan coming in.Cheng Yuan sat down and shook hands with Mr. Ji, and said happily: "Mr. Ji, I finally see you!"

Mr. Ji said apologetically: "I have been in South Africa for a while, preparing for the branch there, and I just returned to Beijing today. How is it? Are you used to staying these days?"

"Your subordinates have arranged very well, thank you Mr. Ji for your care!"

"Cheng and Ji have a long history, so there is no need to be polite between us. Please drink tea! Listen to them, have you been out these two days?"

"Yes, I have been here for more than ten days, and I haven't had a good look at Beijing. In the past two days, I went shopping with a friend in Beijing, and I am very envious of the living conditions of those old Beijingers!"

Mr. Ji smiled and asked, "Oh, why?"

Cheng Yuan said with emotion: "I express my feelings. Others don't understand this kind of envy, but I believe you will feel the same. We shoulder the mission of the family, but at the same time we have lost the joy of being ordinary people!"

Mr. Ji pointed to Cheng Yuan's back and said, "Did you see the two words behind you?"

Cheng Yuan turned his head and saw a beautifully bound script calligraphy on the wall, Cheng Yuan said: "Be willing."

Mr. Ji nodded and said: "'Willing' is not only a philosophy of life, but also an art of dealing with the world. Like water and fire, heaven and earth, yin and yang, giving and getting are contradictory concepts that are opposite and unified. They complement each other. It exists in the world, in life, and in the heart. In fact, everything is between willingness and willingness. It depends on how you choose!"

"If you were in my situation, how would you choose?"

Mr. Ji laughed: "It takes great wisdom to realize the true meaning of giving and receiving. Things in the world do not have fixed owners, nor do they have eternal owners. Things are between choices and have their own destiny. It is you Yes, it’s yours after all, so you can’t run away; if it’s not yours, it’s useless to steal it. Mr. Cheng, I can’t prescribe medicine for you now, I just hope that you can live happily in Beijing! Remember , Cherish the people and things around you, this is the most important."

Cheng Yuan seemed to have a feeling, and the two clinked glasses.

Mr. Ji asked curiously: "By the way, what does your friend in Beijing do?"

Cheng Yuan smiled and said nothing...

After walking out of the teahouse, Cheng Yuan received a call from Wu Yue. Wu Yue asked about the situation with concern, and after confirming that Cheng Yuan had nothing to do, he said happily: "Do you still remember when I told you that there are many bars here?"

"Remember! Do you invite me to the bar for a drink?"

"Guess right, haha!"
