"Any news?"
Song Chao on the other end of the phone explained cautiously: "Recently, several managers of the company have resigned, and they want to exchange their original shares."
"I haven't communicated with them yet, so I wanted to ask if you are still interested."
“Yes, yes!”
Chen Fan smiled and nodded.
I'm so interested.
Song Chao: "Well, it's hard to explain over the phone. When are you free? Come to Beijing and we can meet and talk."
Chen Fan thought for a moment, "Are they anxious? If they are, I can go there today."
Song Chao explained: "I am still going through the company's resignation process, and it will probably take another three days."
Chen Fan calculated that he had agreed to perform on stage with Yan Qing's band three days later, so he was afraid of a time conflict.
"Look, Lao Song, do me a favor and tell these people privately that I am very interested in the original shares they hold and that I am willing to pay a higher price than others to buy them. Ask them to wait and consider my price."
"I will probably go to the capital in three days."
Song Chao said: "That's fine, I have to say, but I can't guarantee whether they are willing to wait for you."
Chen Fan continued, "You talk to them first. If they don't want to wait and leave in a hurry, then tell me and I'll rush over anytime."
"Okay. That's it. I'll be in touch anytime."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Fan clenched his fist with some excitement.
After thinking about it, he picked up the phone and called Su Ruochu.
As a result, the phone rang a few times and then hung up.
Um?
Are you in class?
Sure enough, Su Ruochu sent a text message soon.
"I'm in class."
Chen Fan smiled and started texting.
"I'll be in Beijing to see you soon."
Su Ruochu: "Really? Is your leg healed?"
Chen Fan: "I haven't removed the plaster yet, but I'll be flying there soon, so it won't affect me."
Su Ruochu: "It's better not to do that. You have to heal your wounds first. It will be troublesome if you get hurt again."
"If you miss me, we can chat online."
Chen Fan smiled: "I have to go this time. I have some business to do."
"Don't worry. I'll bring an assistant with me when the time comes. It'll be fine."
"After everything is done, I can stay in the capital to accompany you for two more days."
"Really?"
It seemed that Su Ruochu was also very excited.
"So when are you coming? What time exactly? Tell me the time and I'll pick you up."
Chen Fan's mouth curled up. Silly girl, you said you couldn't let me go, but you obviously missed me a lot.
"The specific time has not been determined yet, I estimate it will be three days later. I will let you know in advance when the time comes."
"Um."
"Go to class. Don't miss me too much."
Su Ruochu sent a tongue-out 놅 emoticon.
Chen Fan smiled and put away his phone, feeling very happy.
When Li Jinqiu returned home in the afternoon, he refused to go shopping because he was worried that his son's leg would be injured again.
Chen Fan persuaded Li Jinqiu earnestly for most of the day, and finally compromised, saying that they only needed to go to a shopping mall to buy a piece of clothing. Li Jinqiu reluctantly agreed.
Feng Pojun drove the couple to the largest shopping mall in the city.
Because it was inconvenient for her to walk, Chen Fan simply bought everything his mother wanted to buy in this mall.
He bought two sets of clothes and picked out two sets for his dad. Considering that it would be inconvenient for his mom to take the bus back home, Chen Fan didn't dare to buy more and tried to choose gifts that were light and easy to carry.
"Mom, I'll send a driver to take you home tomorrow."
Chen Fan held his mother's arm, just like he did before.
Li Jinqiu shook his head: "No, no, why would we bother? Besides, it's not that far, we can just take a bus back."
Seeing that his mother disagreed, Chen Fan did not mention it for the time being, but forced her to come to the jewelry area.
For Li Jinqiu, who has lived in the countryside all her life, this is her first time to enter such a luxurious shopping mall.
As soon as I saw those glittering gold jewellery and ornaments, I became very uneasy. I didn't know where to put my hands, for fear of accidentally dirtying them.
A young female salesperson came over and asked, "Sir, what would you like to buy?"
Chen Fan lowered his head while choosing, without raising it.
"I want to buy a necklace."
"Sir, are you buying this for your mother?"
"Um."
The female salesperson picked out a necklace very professionally.
"How about this one? It's a new model today and is especially suitable for aunties."
Chen Fan took a look and said, "This one is good. Mom, let's try it on."
Li Jinqiu secretly took a look at the price above and was almost given a heart attack by the string of numbers above.
"No, no. It's too expensive."
The female shopping guide was a little embarrassed, but Chen Fan smiled and reached out to take it.
"Mom, since you've finally come here, why not give it a try? It doesn't cost anything anyway."
Li Jinqiu couldn't persuade his son, and finally let his son wear it around his neck.
After putting it on, Chen Fan took a step back and admired it carefully.
"Yeah. It looks good. It's really good looking."
"Mom, you look 20 years younger when you put on this necklace. You'll charm my dad to death when you go back."
"What nonsense is this kid talking about again!"
Li Jinqiu patted his son awkwardly and glanced at the salesperson next to him with embarrassment.
She is honest and still not used to her son playing jokes on her outside.
"That's it. Give me the invoice."
Chen Fan didn't give his mother a chance to speak and directly asked the shopping guide to issue the invoice.
"By the way, pick out for me some necklaces for young girls to wear."
The shopping guides' faces were all beaming with joy.
I can't believe that these two women, who look so ordinary in their attire, are actually big customers.
"Sir, who are you buying this for? How old is the person?"
"My fiancée. In her twenties."
The female shopping guide quickly picked out a necklace.
"What do you think of this one?"
Chen Fan took a look at the price and was somewhat dissatisfied.
Stretch out your finger and point.
"Let me see that one."
The female shopping guide was stunned for a moment.
"Sir, the price of this one has doubled..."
"Yes, bring it here for me to see."
The female salesperson had no choice but to bring back the one that Chen Fan had chosen.
Chen Fan imagined the scene of wearing it on Su Ruchu's fair neck and nodded.
"That's it. Give me a bill for one piece."
"Okay."
After buying the necklace, Li Jinqiu refused to go shopping anymore no matter what.
There was no choice but to go home.
The next morning, Li Jinqiu prepared breakfast for his son and packed his luggage early. There wasn't much in the way of things, just two shopping bags, which contained the clothes that Chen Fan had bought for the two elders yesterday.
I told my son that after breakfast, I would ask Chen Fan to help me get a taxi and I would go to the station by myself so that Chen Fan wouldn't have to take me there.
Chen Fan nodded incoherently with a stick in his mouth.
After finishing his meal, he went downstairs and was stunned to see Feng Pojun standing downstairs.
Chen Fan chuckled and said, "Mom, Lao Feng just happened to take a leave of absence these two days and wanted to go back to Los Angeles. You see, this is just the right time for you to take a ride back."
Feng Pojun stepped forward and took the luggage.
"Auntie, I took a day off to go back to my hometown. Let's go together."
