Chapter 195: Do something big! (Subscribe)
Outside the window, it seemed to be raining lightly.
After a while, a thin layer of rain and mist appeared, blurring Lin Chuan's sight.
Lin Chuan took a deep breath.
He knew that Lao Zhang must have encountered a big problem when he sent him this message, and this problem was also related to the little tenant.
He thought for a while and replied: "Lao Zhang, I'll be there in a while."
"good."
Lao Zhang replied.
While the little housekeeper didn't get up, Lin Chuan walked into the kitchen and cooked some millet porridge.
Not long after, the little housekeeper also woke up.
She walked behind Lin Chuan, gently hugged Lin Chuan's waist, and pressed her whole body against Lin Chuan's back: "Chairman, I will cook."
"You stayed up late during this period, so you should get more rest."
Lin Chuan smiled.
"Chairman is the best." Zhang Xinxin hugged Lin Chuan tighter.
The porridge is not yet cooked.
Lin Chuan smiled, rolled over and hugged the little charterer, then carried her to the sofa and sat down: "Do you have any plans for today?"
A playful smile appeared on the little housekeeper's face: "Sister Coco and I have made an appointment to discuss the treatment of certain diseases today."
"Xinxin, do you still know about medicine?"
Lin Chuan raised his eyebrows and asked.
"I don't understand, but I can learn." The little housekeeper smiled.
"You and Yu Keke have gotten very close recently." Lin Chuan said casually.
The little housekeeper nodded: "Sister Keke told me a lot about medicine, which saved me a lot of time to look up information."
"Why are you suddenly interested in medicine?"
Lin Chuan looked at the little tenant in his arms and asked curiously.
"I won't tell you yet, but I'll give you a surprise when the time comes!" the little housekeeper said with a smile on her lips.
"I'm waiting for your surprise."
Lin Chuan laughed and rubbed Zhang Xinxin's hair, "Eat breakfast first!"
After breakfast.
The little housekeeper went out.
Lin Chuan sent her downstairs, then took a taxi and headed to East Street.
As the taxi travels through the huge city, there is some noisy tire noise in the car. If you put your hand out of the window, you can feel the whistling wind filling your hand.
East Street has arrived.
At this time, it was still morning, and there were not many pedestrians on East Street. It was like a quiet alley in an ancient town. Only shop owners and clerks were out doing business.
Lin Chuan went around a few corners and walked into the 'Jinshiyuan' antique store.
"Xiao Lin, you are here."
As soon as Lin Chuan entered the store, Lao Zhang greeted him and pulled Lin Chuan to the reception room on the second floor.
"Old Zhang, what's wrong with you?" Lin Chuan saw that there was something wrong with Lao Zhang's expression, his face was tired and full of unbearable troubles.
"Xinxin doesn't know, does she?"
Lao Zhang glanced at Lin Chuan, frowned slightly, and asked.
Lin Chuan shook his head: "I don't know, have you encountered any difficulties?"
"Tell me upstairs."
In the antique shop, the stairs from the first floor to the second floor are antique-style wooden stairs. Lao Zhang stepped on them in a hurry, making a "da, da, da" sound.
Go up to the second floor.
Lin Chuan found that his second uncle Zhang Ren was sitting in the reception room, and his expression was a little wrong.
When the second uncle saw Lin Chuan arriving, he forced out a smile and said, "Xiao Lin, you're here."
"Second uncle, what are you doing?"
Lin Chuan's face darkened, he looked at Zhang De and Zhang Ren, and asked with a frown. He was keenly aware that the difficulties encountered by these two people might be difficult.
Suddenly, Lin Chuan remembered the smell he smelled on his second uncle Zhang Ren last night.
hiss!
Is it related to that thing?
Lao Zhang sat down and looked at Lin Chuan with a pair of cloudy eyes, a troubled look on his face.
"Old Zhang, if you have anything to say, just tell me."
Lin Chuan frowned slightly.
Lao Zhang sighed again and said in a low voice: "Xinxin's mother has returned to Anling."
Lin Chuan's expression froze, and he immediately discovered something was wrong.
Is the little renter’s mother back in Anling?
Logically speaking, this should be a good thing for the little housekeeper, but Lao Zhang seemed to really not want Xinxin and her mother to meet.
Therefore, Lin Chuan asked: "Old Zhang, is there anything unspeakable in this?"
"Why……"
Lao Zhang sighed deeply and recounted the past.
The little housekeeper's mother, named Liu Meng, had become addicted to drugs more than ten years ago. For this reason, she abandoned her husband and daughter and fled to another country with an organization.
Once he left, he never came back.
Fortunately, Lao Zhang's family is well off and has enough support to help Zhang Xinxin grow up.
After hearing this, Lin Chuan frowned again and asked, "Old Zhang, does Auntie want to see Xinxin when she comes back this time?"
Lao Zhang did not comment, but said: "She came back two days ago and has been looking for me and your second uncle. Your second uncle and I had a serious talk with her last night. She said that she could not see Xinxin. But she wants to see you."
"see me?"
Lin Chuan was suddenly startled, with a look of surprise on his face.
My daughter can not see her, but I want to see my daughter's boyfriend. What kind of truth and logic is this?
At this time.
Second uncle Zhang Ren said: "Liu Meng gave her reasons. She said she wanted to meet her son-in-law and see if he could take good care of her daughter."
Lao Zhang nodded: "That's why I asked you to come over and discuss it."
"Besides seeing me, does Auntie have any other requests?" Lin Chuan asked.
"I have already given her the other things she wanted."
Old Zhang said solemnly.
The two Zhang brothers both looked depressed.
"I can meet her."
Lin Chuan thought for a moment and made a decision.
Liu Meng, addicted to "addictive drugs", followed a certain organization, disappeared for more than ten years, and now reappeared. Lin Chuan didn't know what kind of person she was now.
Therefore.
He was worried about Liu Meng meeting the little landlady, so he decided to meet her first to see what her purpose was.
"Xiao Lin, thank you."
Old Zhang said "thank you" to Lin Chuan quite solemnly.
"I am also for Xinxin." Lin Chuan felt sorry for his little landlady.
His heart seemed to be pulled.
Perhaps, the clever little landlady had already guessed some of the reasons from Old Zhang's performance, so she was worried.
Harm...but she couldn't control these things.
Thinking of this, Lin Chuan sighed secretly.
At this time, Lao Zhang had already taken out his mobile phone and contacted his ex-wife Liu Meng.
"Xiao Lin, she said she wants to see you alone now."
Lin Chuan's face moved slightly, but he still nodded and said, "Okay, where is it?"
"Yueming Tea House, your second uncle and I will take you there." Lao Zhang said, and then reminded, "But you have to be careful, she may still be stained with those things. If you encounter any special situation, your second uncle and I will rush up immediately."
"Don't worry, I can handle it."
Lin Chuan showed a faint smile on his face, indicating Lao Zhang to relax.
...
Yueming Tea House.
It is located in a small alley in Qingxiu District. The storefront is not big. In the blue brick alley, there is only a door lintel, and there are green potted plants next to it.
Lin Chuan has been here.
Earlier, Lin Chuan and Lao Zhang's ex-girlfriend Liu Qing's "confrontation" was in this place, and asked Mr. Zhao to identify the forged "Fengtian Yiliang", thus attracting Liu Qing and others to join the game.
Finally, this antique fraud and money laundering gang was cracked in one fell swoop.
Now, he has an appointment with Lao Zhang's ex-wife here again.
What a bad fate!
Lin Chuan was wearing a casual suit. As soon as he walked into Yueming Tea House, a familiar waitress in a purple cheongsam came up to him: "Hello, sir, do you have a reservation?"
Lin Chuan reported a tea room number.
"Sir, this way." The waitress immediately walked in front of Lin Chuan and led the way for him.
The tight purple side-slit cheongsam outlined her proud figure, graceful and charming, and in this slightly elegant tea room, it showed a more charming feeling.
But Lin Chuan didn't even look at it.
He looked at the surrounding environment. Except for the occasional special people who "hit it off at first sight", they glanced at Lin Chuan from time to time, and there was nothing unusual.
"Sir, we're here at the tea room."
The waitress stood at the door of the tea room and knocked gently. A slightly cold voice came from inside to allow the door to be opened.
She opened the door of the tea room and invited Lin Chuan in.
Lin Chuan walked into the tea room. There was only one person in the room, a woman in her forties. She sat at the tea table, exhaled a puff of smoke, and pressed the cigarette in her hand into the ashtray.
Then.
She looked at Lin Chuan steadily, her eyes full of scrutiny: "Lin Chuan, is that right?"
Lin Chuan looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him. She looked a bit like a young landlady. She was wearing a noble cheongsam, with pendants on her ears and jade on her wrists. She exuded a sharp and cold aura.
Lin Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled politely: "Yes, I am Lin Chuan, are you Aunt Liu Meng?"
Liu Meng did not answer Lin Chuan's question.
She casually held the teacup, poured a cup for Lin Chuan, and pushed it in front of him: "I heard that Xinxin is with you?"
"Yeah." Lin Chuan nodded.
"He's quite handsome, Xiaolin."
Liu Meng raised her lips and smiled, then her face turned cold, "Do you have the ability to give Xinxin a carefree life in the second half of her life?"
Lin Chuan sat opposite her with a faint smile on his face, not moved by Liu Meng's momentum: "Of course no problem."
"No problem?"
Liu Meng frowned and squinted, "I heard that you are just an online writer. Isn't this a bit too arrogant?"
"And a side job." Lin Chuan smiled.
Lin Chuan remained calm and composed as always with this aunt who might be his "future mother-in-law", and was not intimidated by her aggressiveness.
"I've checked your side jobs. It's nothing more than a company and an antique shop. You can't make much money." Liu Meng's mouth was slightly contemptuous.
Lin Chuan smiled and said, "Enough."
"Enough?"
Liu Meng smiled with some disdain, "How can that little money guarantee Xinxin's peace of mind for the rest of her life?"
"So, Auntie doesn't allow me to be with Xinxin?" Lin Chuan asked back.
"What do you think?"
Liu Meng took a sip of Pu'er tea and asked.
Lin Chuan looked at Liu Meng closely. She was in her forties, her face was a little pale, and her eyes were a little cloudy.
He leaned back on the chair and smiled lightly, "Auntie wants to see me, the purpose should not be to break up Xinxin and me, right?"
Liu Meng raised her eyebrows slightly, "You still have some vision."
"Auntie, if you want me to do something, you might as well say it directly." Lin Chuan directly raised the question, without beating around the bush, playing straight!
Liu Meng obviously did not expect Lin Chuan to be so direct.
A hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, but she quickly adjusted her expression and laughed: "Lin Chuan, you are indeed a smart person. I don't want to break up you and Xin Xin, but you are not worthy of Xin Xin in your current conditions."
"So?" Lin Chuan smiled.
"So... Lin Chuan, follow me." Liu Meng raised the corners of her mouth and smiled, "I will help you do something big!"
