MTL - Rebirth 1983: Starting From Taking Back the Family Property-Chapter 271 pretend to be drunk
Chapter 271 Pretending to be drunk
Because Lu Jiaxin had a discomfort in her throat, she did not speak during the meal and listened to Nie Zhan and Su Heming chatting while drinking.
The topics Su Heming talked about jumped around a lot. One moment he said that his childhood dream was to become an athlete and win glory for the country. The next moment he said that he was too tired from doing business and wanted to go back to the countryside to farm. The next moment he said that domestic technology was lagging behind the West and it would take him who knows how many years to be able to do so. Keep up. But no matter what he said, Nie Zhan could keep up with the topic and would not be left in the dark.
Lu Jiaxin saw that the two of them had already drank two glasses of white wine. A glass of white wine was about two taels. If they drink any more, they would probably be drunk: "Okay, let's eat. We have to go back to the hotel after dinner."
Su Heming saw that Nie Zhan's eyes were a little confused and decided to spare him a life: "Then stop drinking and eat."
Since Nie Zhan also stayed in the hotel and brought four bodyguards, Su Heming didn't worry about Lu Jiaxin's safety and went home to stay at night.
As soon as he left, Nie Zhan came over to Lu Jiaxin: "It's still early, I'll take you for a ride."
“Are you not drunk?”
Nie Zhan said with a smile: "People in our family are born to drink, and I can't drink this little wine. Come over if you don't have time, let's go out for a walk."
Lu Jiaxin didn’t want to go out. The main reason is that there is really nothing to see in Pengcheng at night, so I don’t want to go there. However, she was not sleepy after sleeping for more than an hour in the afternoon, so she took out a financial book from her suitcase and asked Nie Zhan for advice on what she didn't understand. This consultation lasted more than two hours.
Lu Jiaxin saw that he looked tired, so she stopped him talking: "It's getting late. You go to bed early. Do you have to go back to work tomorrow?"
"when are you going back?"
Seeing the look of expectation in his eyes, Lu Jiaxin thought for a moment and said, "I have nothing important to do here. Let's go there with you tomorrow!"
Upon hearing this, Nie Zhan immediately said: "Didn't you say before that we had time to go to Ocean Park together? I would accompany you to Ocean Park tomorrow?"
Lu Jiaxin became happy and said, "Those are places where children like to play. It's really not suitable for you to go there. When you have time, let's play tennis together."
Nie Zhan wanted to say that it would be fine tomorrow, but he thought that Lu Jiaxin was so enterprising that he might not like him skipping work to accompany her. Thinking of this, he immediately changed his mind and said, "I'll reserve the venue for tomorrow. I'll ask the driver to pick you up at Gu's house after get off work."
Lu Jiaxin readily agreed.
The two of us got up very early the next day, had breakfast and arrived at the port just in time to start the formalities. As soon as he left the customs, Nie Zhan's driver was waiting outside.
Nie Zhan first sent Lu Jiaxin to Gu Zhai before going to work.
Amei was very surprised to see her and asked: "Miss Cousin, didn't you go back to the mainland to visit relatives? Why did you come back so soon?"
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Something happened and I need to come back to deal with it. Where is my aunt? Is she in the back garden?"
Amei said: "The old lady had a headache and went to the hospital for a checkup two days ago. Today she will go to the hospital for a follow-up examination."
Lu Jiaxin was very worried. She asked if it was Queen Mary Hospital and prepared to go there. But she didn't expect that as soon as she opened the car door, she was grabbed by Hong Gu who came running quickly: "Miss Ciao, how can you drive without taking a driver's license?"
In a hurry, I forgot about the fact that I didn’t have a driver’s license. Alas, in Hong Kong, just like the mainland, you cannot take the driver's license test if you are under 18 years old, otherwise you would take the test during the summer vacation. Well, I will take the exam when I turn eighteen next year.
Lu Jiaxin asked: "Who else in the family can drive? Ask them to take me to the hospital." Honggu comforted her and said: "Miss Cousin, I know you are worried about the old lady. But this time the old lady has a headache. The doctor said it is because of overthinking. It's caused by many things. We have been reassuring her for the past two days and she is much better. Just to be on the safe side, I asked Aunt Mei to take her for a review."
“Is it really okay?”
“There’s really no problem. If you don’t believe me, wait until the old lady and Sister Mei come back and ask.”
Lu Jiaxin believed her words. After all, this kind of lie was easy to expose and was not that stupid. She did not go upstairs, but went to the back garden with the basket.
After cutting a basket of flowers, Lu Jiaxin trimmed them and put them in a vase. After they were finished, she took them to the second floor.
After doing this, she went back to her room. After closing the door, she called Su Heyuan: "I'm back. Are you free tomorrow? Let's talk about the shares."
Su Heyuan said that he would not have time tomorrow: "My grandfather accidentally sprained his foot while taking a shower. He is now in the hospital. It is my turn to keep vigil tonight."
Watch the night, I will definitely have to catch up on sleep tomorrow morning, and I have to go to the company in the afternoon. As long as it's a matter of shares, don't be in a hurry. It doesn't matter if you're two days late.
Lu Jiaxin can't stop him from fulfilling his filial piety. Of course, Su Heyuan's feelings for Mr. Su are not that pure. But this was the Su family's matter and had nothing to do with her, so she didn't ask any more questions.
Su Heyuan said: "Yesterday Feng Lihua called me and said that she wanted to see you for something. I didn't give her your mainland phone number. I just said that I would ask you to call her back in the next two days. Yesterday Heming had another quarrel with me. I was so angry that I forgot about it.”
Lu Jiaxin didn’t ask what they were talking about: “Okay, I’ll make an appointment when you’re free.”
“My villa is ready, and I’m scheduled to move on the 26th. I must come there then!”
Lu Jiaxin didn't dare to respond. She was going to take care of all these things and go on vacation: "I will definitely go to Hong Kong City. If not, I will come."
Subsequently, Lu Jiaxin called Feng Lihua again. She resigned Feng Lihua the day before returning to the mainland, thinking that it would not be easy for her to pay him half a year's salary more.
Feng Lihua also knew his problem and expressed to Lu Jiaxin that he would not do this business in the future. Knowing her current situation, he also told her to pay more attention in the recent period.
As soon as the call was connected, Lu Jiaxin asked with a smile: "Sister Feng, it's me. Brother Su said you have something to do with me, what is it?"
Feng Lihua said: "I have a friend whose brother is in the Flying Tigers, and his daughter was diagnosed with leukemia last month. They and their two children, as well as the younger brother and his wife, were not able to be matched. Instead, her uncle was successfully matched with the child. ”
Leukemia is also known as blood cancer. In this era, the probability of surviving the disease is very low. The little girl is lucky to be able to successfully match her relative.
Feng Lihua said: "My friend's uncle wants one million, otherwise he will not donate bone marrow to the child. My friend and her brother have no choice but to collect money everywhere."
One million in cash is a large amount of money for ordinary working-class people. After all, a 1,000-square-foot house now in a good location like Fu'an Community only costs RMB 600,000 to 700,000. And the little girl's hospitalization and surgery also cost money.
Lu Jiaxin said: "Isn't this taking advantage of the situation?"
Feng Lihua said that this was taking advantage of the situation, but he had no choice. If he didn't donate the child, he would not only suffer from the disease but also die: "After repeated persuasion from relatives and friends, his uncle also took a step back and reduced the price to 500,000."
