Night falls.
As dusk settles, the city lights begin to twinkle.
Inside a traditional courtyard house.
Lai Fu, looking travel-worn, stood at the door and knocked.
Immediately afterwards.
The servant came out and asked Laifu what his purpose was.
Lai Fu said, "I am Mr. Chen's subordinate, and I am here to see Mr. Chen."
It turned out that when Chen Yun returned to Beijing from Zhonghai, he planned to bring Laifu with him.
But something happened at Laifu's house that he needed to handle personally.
Therefore, Laifu did not go to the capital with Chen Yun. Instead, he finished dealing with things at home first and then rushed to the capital to see Chen Yun overnight.
Upon hearing Lai Fu's words, the servant suddenly realized and said, "Oh, you are Lai Fu. Mr. Chen told me that he would take you to see him as soon as you arrived."
As he spoke, he led Laifu inside.
This quaint courtyard house.
This house was originally allocated to Mr. Qin by the state so that he could stay temporarily when he returned to Beijing for meetings or business.
However, Qin Lao lived at the Northern Army Headquarters for a long time.
I occasionally return to Beijing, but I don't stay here.
Therefore, this place has been idle for a long time.
When Chen Yun returned to Beijing with his relatives and friends to pay respects to his mother, Old Master Qin arranged for Chen Yun to stay here temporarily.
Chen Yun didn't stand on ceremony with Old Qin and settled down temporarily with Shu Tangyin and the others.
now.
In the living room, Chen Yun said to Shu Tangyin, "Tangyin, I'm going to a classmate and friend's gathering later. Would you like to come along?"
Shu Tangyin shook her head, frowned, and looked like Xi Shi clutching her heart. She waved her hand and said weakly, "No, I was driven by curiosity today and drank half a bowl of Beijing douzhi (fermented mung bean juice). My stomach is still churning!"
"Since you're going to your classmates' and friends' gathering, I won't go. You go!"
Chen Yun, Song Yanran, Shu Xinyuan, Xu Yuehua, and others were left speechless, both amused and exasperated.
After paying respects to Chen's mother today, Chen Yun took everyone for a stroll around.
Shu Tangyin insisted on trying Beijing's roast duck and fermented mung bean juice, saying she had long admired them.
Chen Yun gently advised her that she wasn't used to the food.
But Shu Tangyin insisted on trying it!
After trying Peking duck in Beijing, I concluded that it wasn't as delicious as regular Peking duck.
Then I tried the fermented mung bean juice!
With just one bite, Shu Tangyin immediately put on a mask of pain.
But wanting to avoid wasting food, I forced myself to drink a few more mouthfuls, and finally, with only half a bowl left, I couldn't drink any more.
I'm going to throw up if I drink any more.
Even worse, after returning to her residence, her stomach began to churn violently.
She was completely weak at that moment.
How could I possibly accompany Chen Yun to the party?
Chen Yun said, "How about I take you to the hospital to get checked out?"
Shu Tangyin shook her head: "No need, no need. My aunt has already bought me some stomach medicine, and I've already taken it. I just need to rest."
Chen Yun said helplessly, "Then you should get some rest. I'm going to a class reunion."
Shu Tangyin nodded and, accompanied by Song Yanran, went back to her room to rest.
Just as Chen Yun was about to leave, Shu Lingyue volunteered, "Chen Yun, shall I go to the party with you?"
In short.
Whether it was Shu Tangyin's parents, Shu Lingyue's parents, or Long Pingting, they all looked at Shu Lingyue without prior arrangement.
Chen Yun said with a stern face, "I'm going to a party, why are you going to join in the fun?"
Shu Lingyue probably noticed that everyone was looking at her strangely, so she quickly explained, "You and my sister are getting married soon, so why are you going to a class reunion? As your older sister, I naturally have to go with you to keep an eye on you and prevent you from doing anything that would betray my sister."
Everyone present was relieved after hearing Shu Lingyue's explanation.
Only Shu Lingyue's parents looked at each other in bewilderment.
No one knows a daughter better than her parents. As Shu Ling's parents, they naturally understood their daughter's thoughts.
However, it's not easy to expose such things, and since their daughter and Chen Yun haven't actually crossed any lines, it's just a case of unrequited love. Therefore, they can only pretend they don't know anything.
Chen Yun pursed his lips after hearing Shu Lingyue's words, and was about to refuse.
But at this moment.
The servant brought Lucky in from outside.
"Mr. Chen, this man calls himself Lai Fu and says he's one of your men..."
Chen Yun smiled and said, "Yes, that's right!"
Laifu quickly stepped forward, greeted Chen Yun in a simple and honest manner, and then greeted Shu Lingyue and the others.
Chen Yun said, "We're all family, no need for formalities."
"Laifu, you haven't eaten yet, have you?"
Lai Fu scratched his head and answered honestly, "To answer Mr. Chen, I was in a rush and fell asleep on the plane, so I missed the in-flight meal and haven't eaten anything yet!"
Chen Yun smiled and said, "That's perfect. Let's go. I'll take you to a party so we can get a free meal."
Lai Fu replied, "Yes, Mr. Chen!"
Chen Yun took Laifu out.
Shu Lingyue's eyes darted around a couple of times, and she followed without making a sound.
Chen Yun noticed Shu Lingyue following behind him, frowned slightly, and then relaxed.
Let my sister-in-law come along if she wants!
There are two cars in the courtyard garage: a Hongqi sedan and an old Audi A6.
Chen Yun instructed, "Laifu, you drive. The destination is Jiangnan Hui."
Laifu said, "Okay!"
Chen Yun opened the car door and sat down in the back seat. Shu Lingyue moved very quickly and squeezed in as well, sitting down next to Chen Yun.
Laifu sat in the driver's seat and navigated to Jiangnanhui. Then the car slowly drove out of the courtyard.
An hour later.
Arrived at Jiangnanhui.
The parking lot is filled with luxury cars. Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi are the norm here, and Rolls-Royce and Bentley are not uncommon. You can even see many limited edition sports cars with sky-high prices.
Not only was Lai Fu amazed, but Shu Lingyue also felt her eyes were opened, as if she were a country bumpkin visiting a big city.
Chen Yun, Shu Lingyue, and Lai Fu had just gotten out of the old A6 car.
A Maybach pulled up right next to us!
A wealthy young man dressed head-to-toe in designer brands, wearing a Patek Philippe watch, stepped out.
The rich young man was with a beautiful young woman on his arm, accompanied by two bodyguards.
Upon seeing Chen Yun, he was taken aback for a moment, then blinked and exclaimed, "Oh my, oh my, am I seeing things? Isn't this the once powerful and influential Young Master Chen who was expelled from the Chen family and disappeared without a trace?"
Chen Yun looked at the rich young man with a puzzled expression, unable to recall who he was at all.
Upon seeing Chen Yun's expression, the rich young man knew that Chen Yun did not remember him. Feeling insulted, he sneered, "Chen Yun, you don't remember me? I am Zhu Zhenrong, do you remember me?"
Chen Yun suddenly realized: "Oh, I remember now, you're Pig Bubble!"
Zhu's bladder?!
Lai Fu and Shu Tangyin had strange expressions.
The way she looked at the rich young man in front of her was also strange.
Zhu Zhenrong was furious when he heard Chen Yun call him by his old nickname from when he was in school.
He and Chen Yun didn't get along when they were in school.
He bullied the classmate from the countryside, so Chen Yun slapped him twice and ordered him to apologize; he secretly took pictures under girls' skirts, but Chen Yun caught him and beat him so badly that he wet his pants on the spot. Because his pee was so exaggerated, he got the nickname "Pig Pit Bubble"!
If his family hadn't had some money and power back then, he would have been fired long ago.
Although he wasn't expelled, he was still frequently punished by Chen Yun over the years.
Therefore, he hated Chen Yun to the core.
More than ten years later, the two met again. He heard that Chen Yun had fallen on hard times and wanted to tease and mock Chen Yun. Unexpectedly, Chen Yun brought up the old story again and even called him by his nickname "Pig's Urine Bubble"!
Zhu Zhenrong waited for Chen Yun and his group, and sneered, "Chen Yun, back then you were the eldest son of the Chen family, and I didn't dare to offend you."
“You’ve already been expelled from the Chen family. Look at you country bumpkins coming to the city. You still dare to be insolent in front of me?”
A country bumpkin coming to the city?
Chen Yun was slightly taken aback.
Lai Fu and Shu Tangyin both looked angry.
The next second, Chen Yun laughed, his tone carrying a hint of sarcasm: "You call us country bumpkins, then you yourself are a city bumpkin?"
"You city bumpkin, you think you're so great? Have you ever seen a fist the size of a clay pot?"
"Laifu, show this country bumpkin your fists!"
Lai Fu replied in a deep voice, "Yes, Mr. Chen!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the man charged out like a tiger, rushing towards Zhu Zhenrong in a flash and delivering a punch to Zhu Zhenrong's face.
Bang!
Zhu Zhenrong was struck as if by a hammer, his face instantly covered in blood, and he flew backward...
