Chapter 102
Although it was just a suspicion, An Jing still called Lin Mosheng to make an appointment to meet him after rushing back to District D.
They were university alumni and were close because of their family businesses, but there was always a subtle layer of malice between them.
An Jing knew that Lin Mosheng was jealous of him.
They met in a park. When Lin Mosheng drove a luxury car here, An Jing had been standing on the white sand in a daze for a long time.
"If you have anything to say, just give me a call." Lin Mosheng was too lazy to get out of the car and said to An Jing impatiently, "If there's anything between you and me, do we have to talk about it face to face?"
An Jing turned around and saw that he was reluctant to get out of the car. He felt a surge of anger in his heart. He walked over, his eyes sharp, and asked, "What were you busy with recently?"
"That's all?" Lin Mosheng laughed dryly, rolled his eyes, stepped on the accelerator and tried to leave, saying coldly, "It's none of your business."
“…”That shouldn’t be him, An Jingxin said.
"Wait, wait." An Jing stopped him again and said, "Back when we were at the Xia Country Agricultural Cooperative, didn't you tell me you wanted to set up another welfare home?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Mosheng took off his sunglasses and smiled, "Did you really tell your dad about this? Come on, get in the car. I'll explain my thoughts to you in detail."
An Jing narrowed his eyes, but finally got into the car and took the cigarette Lin Mosheng handed him. He listened to him say, "I have seven or eight million myself. The reason I did this was to leave myself a way out. Ever since Dr. Bai's inhibitor was sold worldwide, fluorescence disease has dropped significantly..."
"You want to go back to land?!" An Jing immediately understood and exclaimed in surprise, his eyes full of surprise that his expectation had come true.
Lin Mosheng was so frightened by him that he dropped his cigarette and shouted, "Keep your voice down! Why are you so excited?!"
"I guessed right, haha, my bet was right!" An Jing almost jumped up in excitement, dancing with joy as he said, "Are you trying to say that the fluorescent disease will soon be cured, the land on Earth will be habitable again, and the day when we ocean people return to land is not far away?"
"Maybe, maybe." Lin Mosheng was amused by him and patted his shoulder and replied, "Actually, ever since your father came to our orchard on the saline land last time, I've noticed that Lanzhou is interested in establishing friendly relations with Xiaguo. Isn't your going to the gym to play basketball later to establish diplomatic relations?"
"Do you have the brains for this?" An Jing laughed.
"I..." Lin Mosheng pouted and replied, "What my dad said is fine, right? He also said that the two years when the fluorescent fungus was most rampant on Earth were in Xia Country, and now it has been completely controlled. Then there's the fluorescence disease. Now that the W-YH inhibitor has been released, the original function of the Blue Continent Base has been lost."
"Your dad is in a terrible situation, it's true." Lin Mosheng added, "He knows it in his heart, but because of the responsibilities of his position, he can't leave freely like us."
"I..." An Jing whispered, "I'm just a little surprised. I never thought that the wish I had in my mind would actually come true one day."
"No, it's not miserable." Lin Mosheng took a puff of his cigarette and said, "It's just the general trend. Even the most outstanding people only care about public opinion. Once the Xia Kingdom becomes strong, it will inevitably find a target for protest, and the target can only be us, Lanzhou."
"The fact that you can put it so bluntly proves that this is public opinion." An Jing sighed, somewhat worriedly, and said, "As a son, I'm really worried about my father's situation now."
"Tell me the truth, are you afraid of fighting and killing people?" Lin Mosheng smiled, his eyes full of temptation, and there was a hint of tears.
Social change is actually very unfavorable to the second generation like them, because they have long been the so-called vested interests.
Young lives are eager to write new achievements in the future, while others are forced to keep up with the pace of the times under pressure.
"I'm not afraid." An Jing took a deep breath, opened his eyes, and answered stubbornly and firmly, "Life itself has no meaning. I just want to be old without regrets for wasting my youth or regrets for squandering my years. Hope and freedom are the themes of my life. I'm not afraid."
Lin Mosheng laughed out loud twice, choking on the smoke. At this moment, his long-standing hatred for An Jing faded a little -
Because he knew that this person was just that kind of person. Even if he was in the darkest and muddiest abyss, sooner or later he would be able to pick himself up and fly high like a bird.
"Please help me with the welfare home." Lin Mosheng smiled, took out a shopping card from his pocket, and said, "The consultation fee is not much, 500,000 yuan."
An Jing glanced at it, shook his head, and said, "Forget it. No matter how much money you have, you can't buy anything fancy at the Blue Continent Base. Just give me the project plan."
"Okay." Lin Mosheng raised his eyebrows and took back the card.
-
An Jing returned to the old house, and when he opened the door, he saw An Xingmin.
He hadn't seen his father in person for a long time, and he found that half of his father's hair was gray. He looked old, but his face looked more kind. Only the wrinkles on his skin showed his age.
"Dad." An Jing whispered sincerely.
An Xingmin was flipping through a book. He glanced up at him and said, "You just finished a date with your boyfriend?"
"No, Dad, listen to me." An Jing leaned over, his eyes suddenly red, and said, "You know, you know I'm right, right? You're already planning, you're already seeking a new future for the people of Blue Continent, right? I feel the same way, that's what I thought at the beginning!"
An Xingmin sighed to the sky, his expression haggard, but his eyes gleamed with a sharp light. He replied, "At first, I thought you were just being willful. Now that I think about it, I'm really old and can't keep up with the changes of the times. It seems that everything I planned for you may not be right for you."
"So, will Lanzhou really be under the control of the Xia Kingdom again?" An Jing choked out, looking at his father with a trembling mouth, and said, "How will they manage it? What will you do then? What will our generation do?"
"Believe in yourself," An Xingmin said solemnly. He raised his hand, wanting to touch An Jing's head, but then moved away and replied, "You must believe that God is merciful and that any hardship that fate befalls upon you is a gift from God. Believe that you can overcome difficulties and that you will reach the other side."
"An Jing, this time, just do whatever you want to do." An Xingmin put away the book, turned his head away, and said, "I don't care about you, but I can't help you either."
As he spoke, An Xingmin dialed the internal line and asked someone to come and pick him up.
An Jing frowned, trying hard to hold back his tears, and looked at his father with eyes full of gratitude and admiration.
In other words, his father accepted that even if he was the leader of Lanzhou or a cadre of Lanzhou Province in Xia Country from now on, he would no longer be able to have the final say as he did before.
Someone came to pick up An Xingmin. An Jing wanted to say something but stopped himself. However, he saw An Xingmin looking back, and that subtle smile seemed to be buried in the dust of history.
He said: "From now on, I will call my dad often to chat. I am getting a little lonely now that I am old."
An Jing nodded and watched his father leave.
After An Xingmin left, An Jing wiped his eyes, lost in thought for a long time, and began to think about what he should do to prevent the Blue Continent Base from collapsing while shaking the hearts of the people and making them willingly return to Xia Country.
This may be like a surgical operation, removing the internal tumor while using the body's own recovery mechanism to make everything look brand new.
An Jing was stunned for a moment, then his bracelet vibrated. It was from Bian Lu. He sent a photo as if he was chatting: (Picture) Look, I met a big star. I remember she seemed to be the heroine of a certain movie.
An Jing casually clicked on it and saw that it was Zhang Lan, the actor who had starred in "Rainbow Eyes".
To trace back to the source, the cultural influence of the movie Rainbow Eyes was one of the reasons why Xia Country ignored the fluorescent mushroom, which indirectly led to the spread of fluorescent disease around the world.
The actor became an instant hit because of this, but later on, he didn't have any other works that could help him return to the top.
An Jing narrowed his eyes, stood up suddenly, looked out the window, and a cruel and ruthless conspiracy came to his mind.
An Jing asked Bian Lu: Do you like her?
Bian Lu: No, I’m just curious. Isn’t she from Xia country? Why did she come to the Blue Continent Base and Area F?
Bian Lu: Oh, I saw it. She came here to shoot a magazine. The style seems to be cyberpunk, so she came here to find a background board for taking pictures.
An Jing laughed twice, as if he found it amusing, and then a feasible idea suddenly came to his mind.
An Jing: Times have really changed. In the past, it was us ocean people who were shouting and killing the land people, but now they can come to the base and take pictures openly.
Bian Lu: From the tone of your voice, you hate her?
An Jing: I just feel that... for some people, death is more valuable than life, so God will take them away; while for some people, life is more valuable than death, so everything goes smoothly for them and they shine.
Lawyer Bian: Please explain what this means?
An Jing: I'm about to create an opportunity for Ms. Zhang Lan that will truly make her famous, renowned, and remembered by everyone. — Provided she listens to me and comes to Area D to take photos.
An Jing replied to Bian Lu: Come to District D during your vacation, let’s go to the park, and I will invite you to watch the live broadcast of the female star.
Bian Lu: Why do I always feel like something bad is going to happen?
Bian Lu: That's impossible. She's from Xia Country, and most people in the Blue Continent base still hate Xia people. If she went to Area D to take pictures, she would probably be scolded to death by the crowd.
An Jing: That’s hard to say. She’s getting old, and her career has been lukewarm for many years. The resentment in her heart is enough to make her take this gamble.
An Jing: I’ll invite her first and then we’ll see.
An Jing did not reply to Bian Lu again, however, he was thinking about something else in his mind - he wanted to make those who really provoked the conflicts between the sea people and the land people completely exposed!
