super rich

Chen Mingyuan knew Zhang Yitian's temper very well, and he would never jump to conclusions until he was sure. Since she gave Min Baitao such a bad evaluation, it is obvious that this person's motive for Yin Xiayuan is not very pure!

Thinking of the ending of Yin Xiayuan's death in the previous life, Chen Mingyuan couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat. Could it be that Yin Xiayuan was driven to a dead end at that time because of this Min Baitao's secret obstruction? !

Suddenly, Chen Mingyuan felt that it was necessary to spend time paying attention to Min Baitao.

At present, his understanding of this famous entrepreneur in Qiantang is limited to his Baitao real estate and the advertising business he is cooperating with cable TV.

That being the case, it is just through the advertising department and Sun Heping to try to find out the other party's background. Although at this stage, he can't make a solid guess, but if there is something real, at least he can prevent it before it happens. .

After saying goodbye to Zhang Yitian, Chen Mingyuan walked back with the file bag.

At dusk, the heat of the city has not dissipated. Only the moist breeze blowing from the direction of the East China Sea from time to time can drive away a little heat. There are people in the streets and alleys who come out with wooden chairs to cool off, and there are also childish children playing with water guns. , chattering, chatting, and playing noises come and go one after another, interweaving the leisure corner of Qiantang.

After passing through the familiar alley, Chen Mingyuan stopped abruptly when he was about to arrive at the dormitory building, and his eyes were fixed on a middle-aged man who was standing at the door.

Under the banyan tree in front of the building, there was a man standing with his hands behind his back. He was tall and thin. Looking from a distance, he raised his hands and feet. The figure of that man exuded a sense of calmness, as if he was very different from ordinary people in the city. What's surprising is that this person's face is vaguely similar to Chen Mingyuan's!

Third Uncle!

Chen Mingyuan was very surprised, he really didn't expect Chen Guoliang to appear at the door of his dormitory at this juncture.

Could it be that something happened at home?

With doubts and suspicions, Chen Mingyuan hesitated for a while, but walked up slowly. After a few steps, Chen Guoliang also spotted him. He turned his head and fixed his eyes on him. His sharp eyes narrowed slightly, but he remained silent. His voice was so flat that it was hard to fathom his emotions at the moment.

After a short distance, Chen Mingyuan leaned forward and called Third Uncle. Chen Guoliang and him looked at each other for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Have you eaten yet?"

The voice was a little hoarse, but still steady.

Chen Mingyuan felt more and more weird. He thought that after meeting him, he would be scolded by him coldly, but he didn't expect it to be such a commonplace sentence, so he quickly adjusted his mood and said with a smile: "I'm planning to eat, since three Uncle, you are here, how about I find a restaurant and invite you to try the special dishes of Qiantang."

Chen Guoliang nodded lightly, looked at the dilapidated dormitory building, and then walked towards a Volkswagen black sedan Shi Shiran.

Chen Mingyuan knew that he wanted to find a secluded place to talk to him, so he followed him step by step.

The driver was the family's driver, Lao Yu, who had been serving the Chen family for ten full years. He had been supporting the old man all the time.

Seeing that Lao Yu was also here, Chen Mingyuan had some ideas. Obviously, Chen Guoliang's arrival was approved by the old man!

Could it be that he made a special trip to arrest himself and go back to Xingshi to question him?

But looking at Chen Guoliang's calm expression on the ancient well, he couldn't see the slightest clue.

The journey was silent, except that Chen Mingyuan occasionally pointed out the route to Lao Yu, and the three of them didn't say much. About ten minutes later, the car arrived at the Minghu Hotel, which is very well-known in Qiantang.

Minghu Hotel faces the mountains and rivers, and faces the lake at the back. It is elegant and exquisite. The pavilions and lofts are like pearls dotted in the shade of the lake and the trees. The beauty of the scenery is refreshing.

"Third Master, you and the young master can go in for dinner, I'll just deal with it downstairs."

As soon as he walked into the resplendent lobby, Lao Yu offered to propose.

He has worked for the Chen family for more than ten years, and his eyesight is pretty good. Now that his family is in a precarious situation, he came here under orders, and he understands that there must be important matters to discuss between the nephew and uncle, and he is not the only servant who can do it. Just for fun.

Chen Guoliang didn't persuade him, he asked the waiter for a small box, and went in and took a seat.

"Come and order."

As soon as the waiter came in with the menu, Chen Guoliang gave orders directly, picked up the freshly brewed Longjing tea and drank it leisurely, and turned his head to admire the beautiful scenery of Yanggongdi.

Although he knew that his purpose of coming here was definitely not to eat, Chen Mingyuan carefully ordered traditional Qiantang dishes such as West Lake Vinegar Fish and Longjing Shrimp.

After the people went out, Chen Guoliang turned his head, glanced at him, suddenly smiled, and said: "Come to such a good place to eat, and ordered those delicious dishes, can you afford it with your current salary?"

"You have to be next to each other if you can't bear it. You are a close relative of an elder. When you come here, I must entertain you well."

Chen Mingyuan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and Chen Guoliang was still able to laugh, at least the next treatment won't be too bad!

Chen Guoliang shook his head and sighed: "You are so old, don't you understand the principle of doing what you can?"

A pun, referring to Chen Mingyuan's bold and reckless move this time!

"Of course I know. Grandpa also often taught me the principle of 'If you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world'. To put it in a popular way, it means how much food you can eat."

Chen Mingyuan replied calmly: "But the reality is often not too idealistic. Sometimes we know that we can't do anything, but we can't always be a coward in the face of big right and wrong. Even if we can keep safe for a while, it is difficult to keep the next one in trouble." will be myself."

"That's very good. It seems that you have grown a lot in the past few years and understood a lot of truths. Very good!"

Chen Guoliang smiled lightly, and suddenly his face changed. He threw the porcelain cup on the table, making a sharp noise, his eyes were clear and quiet, and a sharp cold light flashed past.

This is also normal, the report that he worked so hard to do well, one of them was secretly replaced by his nephew without paying attention, and was handed over to the top of the central government, which made a huge hole, dragging himself and the whole family to take the blame for him, Whoever it was would be furious. If Chen Guoliang hadn't been cultivated in a high hall and had a sophisticated mind, he would have scolded him long ago, so he wouldn't be so polite.

Sensing the burst of anger, Chen Mingyuan lowered his eyes, glanced at the rippling tea, and remained silent.

Not long after, the door was opened again, and the waiter began to put dishes on the table, but seeing the two men sitting opposite each other remained silent, he suddenly felt the oppressive and cold atmosphere, in the summer, unexpectedly I couldn't help shivering, and hurriedly rushed out of the door after finishing the dishes.

The exquisite and delicious dishes are full of color, fragrance and taste, which makes people move their index fingers and fill the whole room, but neither uncle nor nephew moved their chopsticks.

After a long stalemate, Chen Guoliang suddenly regained his composure, took out a cigarette and took two puffs, his eyes flickered, his head lowered, and asked: "Ming Yuan, do you hate me and your aunt?"

Chen Mingyuan moved the corner of his mouth, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

To be honest, when I was still young, I was still very close to Chen Guoliang.

After his father's early death, it was destined that Chen Mingyuan would never be able to enjoy the love of a mother and father in an ordinary family. Although Cen Ruohan was always with him, every time he saw the deep love between father and son around him, he would always feel lost and uncomfortable unconsciously.

At that time, the family had just stabilized from the catastrophe, the family business was not as large as it is now, and everyone's thoughts were relatively simple. In memory of the deceased brother, Chen Guoliang almost regarded him as his own, and loved and loved him wholeheartedly. So far, Chen Mingyuan has been deeply moved.

It's a pity that when the family rose again, everyone moved out of the old house one after another, each was busy with his own career and life, and the relationship gradually became cold. Finally, as Chen Guoliang entered Beijing to take up his duties, the relationship between uncle and nephew gradually weakened.

Time flies, and Chen Guoliang's official prestige has grown stronger and stronger during the few years he has been in the center of power. Moreover, his status as the core of the second generation of the Chen family requires him to establish the majesty of the head of the family. His love and affection were quickly replaced by strictness. Most of the time, facing Chen Minggang's mistakes, he would always be harshly reprimanded.

After all, the busy and rigorous working environment, as well as the perennial distance of thousands of miles, made Chen Guoliang unable to maintain too much patience and care.

Without waiting for his nephew's response, Chen Guoliang said to himself: "If you don't tell me, I know in my heart that over the years, you are very disgusted with me, elder sister, brother-in-law, and younger sister, and you even wish you could live without us." These relatives, in this way, at least you and your mother will not suffer so much harsh and cold treatment."

"Third Uncle, you misunderstood..."

Chen Mingyuan was busy trying to defend himself. He knew that Chen Guoliang thought that he wanted to destroy the whole family because of hatred.

Chen Guoliang waved his hand, motioning him not to say more, "To be honest, it seems normal to me that you have these complaints and hatred...Even I feel that this family owes you and your parents too much." Too much."

Chen Guoliang's face became gloomy and complicated, he wiped his face, and sighed: "Before your father left, he repeatedly told me to take care of this family, take care of grandpa and grandma, and you, I swore to promise, Now that I think about it, the first two entrustments to me can only be regarded as barely qualified, but to you, ask yourself, I have done too much dereliction of duty... Otherwise, I wouldn’t let you bury your grievances and do it over and over again. If you act rebelliously, perhaps, the current catastrophe will not happen."

Thinking of his elder brother who died early, Chen Guoliang couldn't hide his guilt. After a while, he corrected his expression and said word by word: "So, now, if it is about responsibility, I should bear the biggest share!"

Chen Mingyuan was taken aback, his face full of disbelief.
