"Xiao Jiang."
"Uncle Fang, Aunt Pan."
Outside the airport.
Jiang Chen couldn't see the gloom of being invited to drink tea at all, and hurried forward with a smile on his face.
The Fang family couple, who had spent a long journey abroad, looked him up and down carefully.
“He’s grown stronger.”
Fang Weiguo raised his hand. , pinched the shoulder of the child he had watched since childhood, quite hard.
Jiang Chen smiled and said: "Uncle Fang, is it fun to go abroad?"
Fang Weiguo nodded, glanced at his wife, and sighed with a smile: "Aunt Pan and I went to many cities this time , It’s worth it.”
This trip abroad is indeed longer and farther than planned.
Jiang Chen glanced at Fang Qing, who was standing behind his parents, with a calm expression on his face, and helped take the suitcase from the other person's hand.
"Get in the car."
"Xiao Jiang, is this your car?"
When she saw the S8 parked on the roadside, Pan Hui couldn't help but ask.
Of course she doesn’t understand cars, and she can’t tell the price, but basically just looking at the appearance of a luxury car can make people feel that it is worth a lot of money.
Jiang Chen said "hmm" and put the luggage in the trunk.
The old couple sat in the back row.
Fang Qing was sitting in the passenger seat.
Choose to land in Kyoto, of course she communicated with Jiang Chen in advance.
She understood her parents' thoughts. After all, they regarded Jiang Chen as half a son.
Jiang Chen did not refuse.
"Xiaojiang, I heard from Qingqing that you are very successful in your career now and have opened your own company?"
Both of the Fang family are ordinary people who can't hide their thoughts, and There is no need to hide in front of the children who have watched him grow up. Not long after getting in the car, Pan Hui couldn't help but ask.
"Well, we are partnering with others, Aunt Pan. Fang Qing is trying to put money on my face. The economic situation is not very good now, and business is more difficult to do."
This That's not a lie.
After all, he is currently competing fiercely with domestic giant companies, and the game he "started" has also encountered a series of problems.
"Xiao Jiang, please stop being modest. This S8 of yours is worth more than two million."
Hearing her husband's voice, Pan Hui's eyes were shocked and she couldn't help but tilt her head. , "More than two million?"
Jiang Chen was also a little surprised, looking at the rearview mirror, "Uncle Fang, how did you know?"
Having lived in that college of laid-off workers for most of his life Courtyard, Fang Weiguo should not have such a keen eye.
"I checked."
Fang Weiguo picked up the mobile phone in his hand.
Jiang Chen smiled and said jokingly: "Uncle Fang, you really need to go out for a walk more."
"Okay, now that you have achieved something, let me use it to you, Uncle Fang. Are you kidding?”
Fang Weiguo pretended to be dissatisfied, but his face was full of smiles, and his eyes were filled with relief as he looked at the young man driving.
As a parent, there is nothing more satisfying than watching your child have a bright future. This is even happier than seeing how many sights he has gone abroad to see and how many celebrities he has seen.
"After returning to Shacheng, I will definitely go find your dad and have a good drink."
Pan Hui quietly pushed his arm.
Fang Weiguo didn't take it seriously. He believed that this child was definitely not that fragile. If he were fragile, he would not have what he has achieved today.
Look at the young man driving the car, and then look at the daughter sitting next to him.
Isn't this the scene where he and Lao Jiang once joked?
Fang Weiguo couldn't help but feel a trace of regret in his heart.
"Xiao Jiang, have you gone back for the New Year this year?" Pan Hui changed the subject.
“No.”
“Then you spent the Chinese New Year in Kyoto?”
“No, I went to my girlfriend’s house, Qindao.”
Jiang Chen had a lot to say, but his frankness and sincerity made Pan Hui speechless for a moment, and then she smiled slightly unnaturally.
"I heard from Qingqing that you have found a girlfriend. She must be very beautiful, right? Is she in Kyoto? Bring her to me and your Uncle Fang to meet her."
" Aunt Pan, she is in Donghai. She is a senior this year and has not graduated yet.”
The car became quiet.
Pan Hui didn't know what to say.
The atmosphere became a little stiff for no reason.
The key is Fang Qing.
I haven’t said a word since I got on the bus. I wonder if I am tired after traveling abroad for too long.
"Fang Qing said, does your company have a quota for our overseas trip this time?"
Fang Weiguo broke the silence and at the same time avoided the topic that made the atmosphere awkward.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but glance at Qingmei on the passenger seat.
Fang Qing looked out the window without saying a word.
If she wants to hold her parents back, she can only make excuses.
“Well, it’s empty anyway. Our company has cooperation with travel agencies.”
Jiang Chen came as soon as he opened his mouth. Although he did not collude in advance, he cooperated perfectly.
This is called tacit understanding.
It cannot be piled up with money.
Fang Weiguo nodded, "You also bought her a car? Although you grew up together, you can't spend so much, and you must never do this again in the future."
Fortunately. He only knew that Jiang Chen sent a car through Tong Dan's phone call, but he didn't know what kind of car it was.
"Uncle Fang, you can check online. If you buy a car, you can use it as a tax deduction for the company."
Jiang Chen's face did not change, his heart did not beat, and he successfully lived in the Fang family. Finally, he couldn't help but look at Fang Qing again, blaming the other party for leaving everything out.
But Fang Qing kept looking outside and didn't receive his eyes.
Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze.
He believed that the other party still kept some important things secret.
Otherwise, I'm afraid the second elder wouldn't ask to come to Kyoto to see him.
No.
To be precise, it should be more capable.
But it definitely won’t be this attitude.
Jiang Chen first drove to the hotel.
Five-star family room.
There is no deliberate showing off.
However, hotels and rooms of this quality still have a certain impact on the Fang family, who live at the bottom of society. However, they at least have some mental confidence in Jiang Chen's current abilities.
The family room has two bedrooms and a small living room outside. The area is estimated to be about the same as the Fang family's house in Shacheng.
"Is the matter resolved?"
After entering the bedroom alone and being alone with Jiang Chen, Fang Qing spoke.
"I thought you contracted some disease when you went abroad. I was shocked."
Jiang Chen joked.
If it were in the past, Fang Qing would definitely not suffer a loss and would most likely have to fight back, but now she didn't and just packed up her luggage.
“Here.”
She took out a beautiful card from the suitcase and handed it over.
“What?”
Jiang Chen took it in confusion.
"A souvenir from the Louvre."
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, looked at Qingmei who was crouching down to pack her suitcase, moved her lips, and then said: "Thank you. ”
"My mother asked me to bring it to you."
"..."
The gratitude seemed to disappear in an instant.
Jiang Chen laughed dumbly, holding the commemorative card, and then said: "Well, it's almost solved. Otherwise, I wouldn't let you bring Uncle Fang and the others over."
Fang Jun is still inside.
Not to mention the Clay Bodhisattva crossing the river, at least at this time, the troubled young master definitely has no energy to focus on Fang Qing.
Although the other party acted lightly, Fang Qing had seen the tyranny of the Fang brothers and sisters.
And the fact that she is abroad and abandons the bank grand prize arrangement is enough to illustrate a certain problem.
"Thank you."
The other party just thanked her, and she quickly returned the favor.
All causes originate from her.
She will not ask, nor does she need to ask, what happened in the specific process.
Jiang Chen was slightly startled and said with a smile: "You are so polite to me."
"You guys should be quite tired from flying, so you will rest in the hotel today. Didn't Uncle Fang keep thinking about it? Want to go see the Great Wall? Go tomorrow.”
Fang Qing didn’t say anything, as if she acquiesced to the other party’s arrangement.
It’s definitely not the reason why they didn’t see each other during the New Year. They had not contacted each other for a year and a half, and Fang Qing would not be like this.
It’s not that I’m unfamiliar.
Jiang Chen unconsciously felt that there seemed to be some inexplicable strangeness in the relationship between them.
“Ahem.”
He coughed lightly, “I’m going to see Uncle Fang and the others.” After having dinner with him, Jiang Chen took the car to the car early the next morning. The Fang family and Qingmei, who were full of energy, came to China's greatest miracle - the Great Wall.
Climb high and look far.
Fang Weiguo sighed, "After seeing so many places abroad, our Great Wall is actually more spectacular."
Even if Jiang Chen and the others set out early enough, this world-famous monument will never be forgotten. There will be no shortage of pilgrims.
"Uncle Fang, Aunt Pan, would you like to take a photo?"
The couple happily agreed.
Jiang Chen took out his mobile phone and taught the two elders how to pose and do the work that Fang Qing, the daughter, should do.
Fang Qing was standing next to her with a bag filled with snacks and drinks.
In the eyes of others, these four people are undoubtedly a family.
“Fang Qing?”
suddenly.
Youdao’s doubtful shout rang out.
Fang Qing, who unconsciously smiled while watching her parents taking photos, turned her head subconsciously, and then also showed a look of surprise.
“Lawyer Fan.”
Lawyer Fan, who has always been known as the strong lady in Tianhe Law Firm, walked over quickly, “I thought I made a mistake, but it turns out it’s really you. ”
Then, the strong lady saw Jiang Chen and the other two people taking pictures.
Jiang Chen, of course she still has an impression.
When we first went to visit Ding He, we went together.
“I’ll bring my parents here to have a look.”
Fang Qing explained.
Lawyer Fan nodded suddenly.
"Lawyer Fan, are you so leisurely and relaxed?"
At any rate, we have worked together for a while, and through the nickname, you can also see the character of this senior female lawyer.
A typical career-oriented woman.
Generally, I rarely give myself a holiday unless there are special circumstances.
“Don’t mention it.”
Climbing the Great Wall alone showed her unique character. Lawyer Fan sighed, “The law firm is closed now.”
"Closed?"
Fang Qing was surprised and couldn't help but ask: "Why?"
Lawyer Fan shook his head, looking embarrassed.
"Lawyer Fan?"
Jiang Chen, who took a few photos of Fang Weiguo and his wife, also noticed it and has a good memory.
“Hello, Mr. Jiang.”
Lawyer Fan smiled politely.
"Dad, Mom, this is my colleague from the law firm, Lawyer Fan."
Fang Qing introduced to her parents.
"Hello."
"Hello, uncle and aunt."
"Come to climb the Great Wall alone."
"Well, Lu The office is closed, and it is idle to be idle. It is better to exercise. ”
"The law firm has closed down? What went wrong?"
Pan Hui said immediately. After all, Fang Qing had not told her parents about her resignation.
Lawyer Fan, who did not know the inside story, explained: "The new boss of our law firm died of a sudden illness. It seems that he himself was involved in some illegal cases, so the law enforcement department asked us to suspend business until the investigation is clear."< br>
After Fang Ai's death, the ownership of Tianhe Law Firm belonged to the Fang family. Later, Fang Jun gave it to Luo Han as a reward.
The fate of Luo Han is visible to the human eye.
Speaking of which, Tianhe Law Firm really seems to have unknown attributes, and its successive bosses have had no good results.
Hearing Lawyer Fan’s explanation, Fang Qing couldn’t help but look at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen noticed her eyes and showed an innocent expression.
It’s like throwing a firecracker into the sea. The person who throws the firecracker cannot fully understand the broad impact it will have.
Jiang Chen didn't even pay attention to the fact that Tianhe Law Firm fell into the hands of Luo Han.
"What should we do? It won't affect your work, right?"
Fang Weiguo said nervously.
"No. If the law firm really can't continue to operate, the worst possible thing is to change the company."
Fang Weiguo nodded.
After chatting for a while, Lawyer Fan said goodbye.
After she left, Fang Weiguo immediately said to his daughter: "No wonder you stayed with us abroad for so long this time. Why didn't you tell us if something like this happened?"
"Dad, this is not a good thing, what should I tell you."
Jiang Chen saw this and nodded secretly.
Fang Qing's ability to lie is still as good as ever, without any deterioration. His face is not red and his heart is not beating, so he has no choice but to be inferior.
“You also know it’s not a good thing, so what will you do with your future work?”
As ordinary people living at the grassroots level of society, housewives like Pan Hui are most concerned about their children's employment.
"Aunt Pan, it doesn't matter. Fang Qing can come and work in my company. Our company just needs legal talents like her."
Jiang Chen said generously.
Pan Hui’s eyes lit up.
“The treatment will definitely not be worse than what she is now.”
Jiang Chen added.
“I’m not going.”
Before the couple spoke, Fang Qing made a decisive statement.
“Why not go?”
Fang Weiguo asked subconsciously.
"Maybe he dislikes my small temple." Jiang Chen sighed.
"Who knows if you want to avenge yourself."
After saying that, Fang Qing walked forward.
Fang Weiguo and his wife were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
The two children did fight a lot when they were young.
"Why is this child so small-minded? Besides, she was not the one who was bullied when she was a child."
Fang Weiguo felt this.
The eyes of these elders are sharp after all.
But this made Comrade Jiang Chen next to him somewhat confused.
Perhaps the reason why the old couple has always been interested in him and Fang Qing is just because they feel that their daughter will never be the one who suffers when she is with him?
Jiang Chen pretended not to hear at all, and when Fang Weiguo and his wife also started to walk forward, he quickly caught up with Fang Qing.
"How about I take down Tianhe. You and those colleagues should still have feelings for each other, right?"
Other people would give bags and cosmetics to compensate for losses, but this The location is quite good.
Fang Qing no longer wants to guess how strong this guy is now.
“If you want to harm me, just say so. There’s no need to go to such trouble.”
“Why are you harming me?”
“Ding He, Fang Ai, and now Boss, which one will end well?"
Jiang Chen was speechless, and then said with a smile: "You are a high-quality talent who has experienced higher education, how can you be so superstitious?"
"You two? Why are you walking so fast? Stop and let me take a picture of you."
A young man and woman who have grown up can only stop and pose like puppets as requested by their elders.
"What are you doing so far away? Come closer. Aren't you good at taking pictures when you were young?"
Fang Weiguo held a mobile phone in one hand and made gestures with the other.
No matter how far you have gone, you will always be a child in front of your elders.
The distance between the two could only be forced to gradually shrink until they were shoulder to shoulder, as if they had returned to the distance they had in childhood.
“Smile happily.”
Pan Hui guided with a kind smile.
Jiang Chen grinned, showing his white teeth, extremely honest.
The wind on the Great Wall blew by, ruffling Fang Qing's long hair.
As if feeling Fang Qing's "restraint", Jiang Chen raised his hand and naturally gently held her shoulders from behind.
Fang Qing frowned slightly and tilted her head.
I saw that a guy who didn't seem to have grown up had raised his other hand and gestured at the camera.
Like a fool.
Fang Qing laughed unconsciously.
“Click.”
Fang Weiguo pressed the shooting button.
The picture freezes.
On the screen.
The boy acted childishly and naively, while the girl looked sideways at him with a gentle smile. (End of this chapter)
