"It's not a blind date, it's just an arranged meeting, a simple meeting..." Song Ziyan said in a troubled tone: "His family business is in Yanjing, and his old man is also my elder, so..."
"So I want to bring you two together. Okay, I understand." Xiao Chen said with a smile, "But you're just meeting for once, so don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"That won't do. I have to let him know my attitude." Song Ziyan protested, "So you have to go with me. I'll be worried if you don't go."
"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll pick you up whenever we meet." Xiao Chen said with a helpless smile.
"In the evening." Song Ziyan thought for a moment and said, "Just pick me up at my house at eight o'clock."
"OK, see you tonight." Xiao Chen said goodbye to her through the phone and hung up.
At noon, I invited Li Yongyuan and Zhang Ziang to have a small gathering together.
"Today's meal is a farewell to Yongyuan." Zhang Ziang picked up two bottles of Maotai and said, "Xiao Chen, you have to drink something no matter what."
"What's wrong? Yongyuan is leaving?" Xiao Chen asked in surprise.
"Yes, I have to go back to Beijing." Li Yongyuan said with a look of reluctance: "I haven't stayed in Jiangcheng long enough, but there is no other way. My dad arranged a blind date for me and insisted that I go back to Yanjing to meet him."
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly: "Why do you have to go on a blind date too?"
"Haha, with a family background like his, it's a bit unrealistic for him to pursue his own love. Usually, they go through family alliances. But I heard that your blind date is a famous talented woman in Yanjing."
Zhang Ziang said with envy: "If I were you, I would definitely nod."
"Come on, it will be your turn sooner or later." Li Yongyuan glared at him.
"Well, I'll make an exception and drink a little today, even if it's to see Yongyuan off." Xiao Chen said, "It just so happens that I have something I'd like Yongyuan to help me with."
"Xiao Chen, if you have something to say, just tell me." Li Yongyuan looked at Xiao Chen with some confusion.
"I want you to help me find someone." Xiao Chen's expression was complicated. "He's probably between forty-five and fifty, and his name is unknown. I only know his name is Acheng."
"Are you from Yanjing?" Li Yongyuan asked.
"Yes, he's from Yanjing." Xiao Chen nodded. "And he should have had a relationship with Xiao Ming's mother. We need to investigate the people around her."
Xiao Chen knew too little information, and Xiao's mother, that crazy woman, had no intention of telling him the truth.
So Xiao Chen tried to pry the truth out of her on the one hand, and on the other hand he also tried to find his relatives.
Jiangcheng is not far from Yanjing, and the high-speed rail takes less than two hours.
The distance on the map is even just a few centimeters.
But even with such a short distance, there are tens of millions of people who need to be screened.
The police's DNA sample match yielded no results, so it seems this approach won't work.
Li Yongyuan's family has a huge network of connections in Yanjing, he should be able to help.
"Is there any other information?" Li Yongyuan asked seriously.
"Yes, I lost my child eighteen years ago." Xiao Chen thought for a moment.
"Are you looking for your biological father?" Zhang Ziang had already seen the clue.
"Yes." Xiao Chen smiled bitterly: "The Xiao couple stole me away from my biological mother."
"Coincidentally, my biological father knew Xiao Ming's mother, and they had a special relationship."
"Right now, all I can confirm is that he's from Yanjing, his name is Ah Cheng, and he lost his child. I don't know anything else."
"This relationship is a bit complicated." Li Yongyuan pondered and said, "Okay, if you have any new information, feel free to contact me."
"I'll go back this afternoon and contact my dad. I'll have him ask the police to look into your situation. With just the name Acheng, and no identification information or even a name, it's going to be difficult to deal with."
"Okay, I'll try to get more information from the couple." Xiao Chen nodded: "Thank you, Yongyuan."
"Why are you being so polite to me?" Li Yongyuan grinned. He opened a bottle of Maotai and poured three glasses of wine. "I'm going back to Yanjing tomorrow, so I have to drink this wine well."
"Xiao Chen, you don't have to take the college entrance examination now, and you're an adult, so it's okay to drink a little."
"Okay, let's drink a little today, but not too much, as I have something to do tonight." Xiao Chen took the wine.
"Don't worry, it won't be too much." Li Yongyuan raised his glass: "Xiao Chen, this one is for you."
"This is to thank you for saving my life."
"Secondly, thank you for letting me go home in a decent manner. If it weren't for you, I would definitely lose this bet with my father."
"Haha, you are too modest. In fact, even without me, you can still win, it just takes some time." Xiao Chen laughed.
"No, when I was mad at my dad, I was so high up that I felt like I could handle everything even if I left home."
Li Yongyuan shook his head: "When I really came here to start a business, without the halo of the Li family, I realized how difficult it was."
"Although I've had Zi'ang's help over the years, I've certainly taken a lot of detours. Now I understand that many elders aren't afraid of their sons living a life of luxury, but they're afraid of them starting their own businesses."
"Haha, my dad has told me more than once that if you like antiques, you can even empty out the museum, but you must never try to start a business." Zhang Ziang laughed.
He felt deeply about this. Today's wealthy people are not afraid that their sons will not live up to their expectations.
I am afraid that if my son starts his own business and just lives a life of drinking, partying and reveling in pleasure, it will take him several lifetimes to build up the family business.
But if you start a business, this amount of money will never be enough to fill the bottomless pit.
Several people laughed and raised their glasses to drink.
In his previous life, Xiao Chen had a good alcohol tolerance and would drink as much as he could for social occasions.
But I haven’t touched white wine since my rebirth. After drinking this glass of wine, I felt like my stomach was on fire.
"By the way, Xiao Chen, how are you going to handle Xiao Yuanhe's case?" Zhang Ziang put down his wine glass. "Are you really going to sue him?"
"Yes, sue him and put him in jail." Xiao Chen said.
"It's all this couple's fault." Zhang Ziang shook his head helplessly. "I've asked a lawyer, and he deserves at least five years in prison."
"What about Xiao Ming's mother?" Li Yongyuan asked. "I feel like this woman is mentally unstable."
"She seems like a taut string that could break at any moment."
"She puts all her thoughts on Xiao Ming. The life and death of others have nothing to do with her." Xiao Chen shook his head: "She is a very scary person."
"Besides, her mental state is unstable. Since we've already fallen out, I don't mind sending her to a mental hospital."
The two nodded gently, and they could only sigh at Xiao Chen's experience.
Xiao Chen's life has been rough enough to be written into a book.
"Xiao Chen, where are you?" At this moment, Xiao Yan called, her tone was very anxious.
"Having dinner with friends? What's wrong?" Xiao Chen asked.
"My mom's mental state isn't quite right. She just came to see me and asked where you were." Xiao Yan calmed herself down and said, "Stay away from her. She's... scary when she's sick."
"Okay, I got it. Thank you for reminding me." Xiao Chen's expression was indifferent.
