Arrival in Beijing (V Announcement)
Liang Lin's grandparents are both teachers at Beijing Sport University. Grandpa Liang Guangrui teaches Sanda and grandmother Zeng Lan teaches swordsmanship. Now the two elders have retired. Apart from occasionally going to school or the national team to give guidance, they usually stay at home to grow flowers, fish, and read martial arts novels. The old couple lives an extremely leisurely life.
The old couple has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son Liang Jiang is a boxing coach for the national team, and the eldest daughter-in-law teaches English at the Sports University. They have one son and one daughter. Their son is married and teaches in a high school. Their daughter-in-law is their colleague. They have a son and their daughter is still in high school.
The second child is a girl named Liang Fangfei. She is a physical education teacher in a high school and also the director of the physical education department. She married into a large compound and gave birth to two sons. The eldest son did not get into college, so after graduating from high school, his family found him a job in a cotton and linen factory. His life is not as good as others but better than most.
After graduating from high school last year, the youngest son failed to get into college, but he didn’t want to repeat his studies and kept talking about going into business. In fact, he was idle and causing trouble all day long.
Liang Fangfei was extremely worried because both of her sons were useless. Her father-in-law was an old revolutionary and her husband was the youngest and worked as the director of the logistics department of a high school.
None of their family had anything to do with officialdom, unlike the eldest and second oldest brothers, who were either in the army or holding important positions in government departments. Whenever there was a family gathering, she felt ashamed when she saw the two arrogant sisters-in-law.
In terms of family background, Liang Fangfei is not as good as her two sisters-in-law's family, both of whom were born in large compounds. She is also not as good as her husband, and even more bitter than her son. So she turned her attention to her natal family, hoping that they could produce a promising person to save her face.
There was no hope for the eldest brother's family, but the third brother's family had a Liang Lin, who had made many contributions in the Public Security Bureau. At the age of 25, he became the captain of the criminal police brigade and had a bright future.
It seemed that she would be able to stand up straight in front of her sisters-in-law, but Liang Lin actually ruined his own future. She introduced him to so many girls with wealthy families who could help him in his career, but he looked down on any of them. However, when he went on a business trip to the United States, he made a girlfriend from Hong Kong.
Although this girlfriend dropped out of school for him and returned to China, and became a mainland citizen, it cannot change the fact that she is a Hong Kong native, especially since Hong Kong has not yet returned to China. It is possible that it will affect her career at the very least, and she may even be expelled from the Public Security Bureau.
So when Liang Fangfei heard about this, she immediately returned to her parents' home, intending to discuss with her family how to save the only official position in the family.
Liang Lin's parents, the third son of the Liang family and his wife, were extremely happy that their son had found a partner. Their son was 25 years old, a typical unmarried young man of advanced age. The guys of the same age as him in their family compound had children who were already helping with household chores, but he, on the other hand, didn't even have a partner.
They didn't know how much hair they had lost because of worrying, so no matter where the girl came from, as long as she had good character and their son was willing, they would have no objection.
If you ask them, it would be best not to become a public security officer. They only have this one son and they are worried every day, afraid that something might happen to him. So, let alone finding a Hong Kong girl, they would have no objection to finding a blonde foreign girl.
Liang Fangfei's face turned red with anger. She looked at the unambitious third brother and his wife and asked them, "Liang Lin is the only one who can change the fortunes of our Liang family. Can you bear to watch his career ruined by a woman?"
Liang Lin's father Liang Shan and mother Lin Yue both replied with a smile: "I can't bear it."
If they weren't afraid that their sister would faint from anger, they might even say that they were very happy.
Well, these two good-for-nothings, if they had ambition, they wouldn't have stayed in the logistics department of the Sports University all the time. She couldn't count on them to persuade Liang Lin, so she stamped her feet, turned around and went to find her parents.
Unexpectedly, when her father heard her words, his eyebrows sank and he said coldly: "You have been pouring out the water for more than 20 years. Don't meddle in your mother's family affairs."
Her mother followed up with, "The generations that make straw ropes and hemp shoes are taken care of by the next generation. Liang Lin's affairs are taken care of by his parents. Why should you, an aunt who has just left the family, take care of them? If you have time, take care of your second son and don't let him idle away all day."
Liang Fangfei was really sad at this moment. She was only thinking about her own family, but why didn't anyone understand her and even disliked her for meddling in other people's affairs?
With the last bit of hope, she went to find her eldest brother, Liang Jiang, the eldest brother of the Liang family who was a boxing coach for the national team. Liang Jiang was also unreliable. When he heard that his nephew might be expelled from the Public Security Bureau, he immediately laughed and said, "It's good to be expelled. It's just right for him to come to our national team. Who knows, he can even win an Olympic championship."
Liang Fangfei has become autistic. Why don't her family members have any intention of changing their family background? Her parents don't care, and the third and eldest sons are all in favor of it. It seems that she is the only one who can be the villain who breaks up the couple.
She was alone and Liang Lin was stubborn, so she had to go back and think of a solution.
Liang Lin had no idea that there was a dispute in his family over the matter between him and Shen Ziyao.
At this moment, he was accompanying Shen Ziyao to handle the account cancellation procedures. After the staff confirmed again and again that Shen Ziyao wanted to cancel her account, he unbelievably processed it for her.
The mainland is very poor now, and every day there are people who try their best to sneak from the mainland to Hong Kong. But this beautiful woman actually wants to cancel her household registration and return to the mainland.
He glanced at Liang Lin. The man looked okay, but judging from his attire, he knew he was not rich. When this beauty arrived in the mainland and had enough of the poor life, she realized that no matter how handsome a man's face is, it cannot be used to make a living.
"It's really not easy for this procedure."
Shen Ziyao and others came out of the administrative building, looked at the documents in her hands, sighed, and then thanked Ji Mao.
Ji Mao said politely with a guilty conscience: "Don't thank me, I didn't do anything."
He was telling the truth. Although he had some fame, this was the smoothest time he had ever gone through in handling government procedures. He encountered almost no difficulties. He knew that someone was helping him behind the scenes. His eyes flashed slightly. The identity of his future cousin's wife must be not simple, but so what? His cousin was not at a loss anyway.
"Cousin, sister-in-law, are you going back to the mainland now? Since you came to Hong Kong, I have not been able to play the role of a good host and entertain you well. Why don't you stay for two more days and I will take you to see the Oriental Pearl Tower."
Shen Ziyao and Liang Lin looked at each other, then politely declined: "Thank you, Lawyer Ji, for your kindness. We still want to return to the mainland as soon as possible. Your cousin is eager to go home now."
Ji Mao glanced at Liang Lin teasingly and said, "I understand. He wants to go back home and report the happy event."
Then he nudged Liang Lin with his shoulder: "Cousin, I have already reported it to you in advance. My uncle and his family are very happy and are waiting for you to take your sister-in-law back to meet your parents. You don't have to thank me too much."
Liang Lin immediately looked at Shen Ziyao. As expected, her face was stiff, and her peach blossom eyes were full of resistance and anger towards Ji Mao, in addition to being at a loss.
Liang Lin gritted his teeth and said to Ji Mao: "I didn't intend to thank you in the first place."
Ji Mao felt the anger emanating from his cousin and finally realized his mistake. It seemed that he had done something bad with good intentions. His future cousin's wife might not be ready to meet his parents yet.
He smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject to try to put the matter behind him: "Cousin, I really don't plan to stay in Hong Kong for two more days. My parents will be back from their trip soon. If you come to Hong Kong and I don't treat you well, you will definitely break my legs."
Liang Lin said coldly: "Then just interrupt it."
After that, he walked towards Shen Ziyao and comforted her: "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
Shen Ziyao was a little annoyed. Consul General Yang and Director Du had never told her that they had to meet the parents when playing a couple. She was afraid that she would not be able to act well, and she was even more afraid of many uncontrollable troubles. At this point, the only way was to end the relationship as soon as possible.
Liang Lin lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "It depends on the arrangements from above."
Shen Ziyao's ears felt a little itchy from the airflow when he spoke, and she couldn't help but turn her head to the side, but she forgot the injury on her neck. She staggered in pain and was about to fall. Liang Lin quickly stretched out his arm and pulled her back.
And Shen Ziyao followed his strength and couldn't help but bumped into his arms, which hurt her nose. Fortunately, her nose was original, otherwise she would definitely have to go to the hospital for reconstruction.
Liang Lin held the girl tightly in his arms, his heartbeat quickened and his whole body stiffened. He didn't mean to take advantage of her, and fearing that Shen Ziyao would misunderstand, he quickly lowered his head to explain.
Shen Ziyao was rubbing her nose. After that, she poked someone's chest with her hand. It felt hard, almost as hard as a steel plate. No wonder it hurt her nose.
Liang Lin felt the soft touch on his chest, his heartbeat quickened again, and his whole body became even stiffer.
"Cousin, please at least consider the feelings of older single men."
Ji Mao's faint voice sounded, and Shen Ziyao realized what a stupid thing she had done. She was actually enjoying herself in a man's arms. Her fair face suddenly turned red like the morning glow. She quickly evacuated from the man's arms and walked quickly towards the car.
Liang Lin's arms suddenly felt empty, and he felt a moment of loss. He glanced at Ji Mao with cold eyes. This man deserved to have his legs broken. He had no eyesight at all.
Then he went after Chen Ziyao. Ji Mao kicked the stones on the ground. It was a big deal to have a girlfriend. He just didn't want to find one at the moment. There were more girls who liked him than the ships passing through Victoria Harbour.
Along the way, because of the embarrassment just now, Shen Ziyao leaned sideways to look at the scenery outside the car window, but not at Liang Lin. Liang Lin didn't talk much, and the car was very quiet for a while.
Ji Mao couldn't stand this atmosphere, so he found a topic: "Cousin, sister-in-law, can I invest in your USB flash drive business?"
This was Shen Ziyao's business, and Liang Lin would not give any advice, so he kept silent. There was no answer for a long time. When Ji Maoyuan thought it was going to fail, Shen Ziyao spoke up.
"Lawyer Ji is also investing? I heard that lawyers in Hong Kong make a lot of money."
Ji Mao smiled and said, "Who would complain about having too much money? Money is just like Han Xin selecting his soldiers, the more the better."
Shen Ziyao also smiled and replied: "This factory is still in the planning stage, I have no idea yet. It's not impossible for you to join in, but you have to provide us with legal assistance."
Ji Mao said happily: "Of course, we are all family, I will definitely offer the lowest price."
Liang Lin sneered: "I thought you would say you don't want any money."
Ji Mao deliberately exaggerated: "Oh my god, cousin, you can actually joke."
Thanks to the presence of Ji Mao, the lively guy, the atmosphere in the car was very relaxed, and they drove all the way to the hotel where they were staying.
Just as Shen Ziyao was about to get off the car, she was stopped by Liang Lin. He looked around fiercely and found a few people peeking out. They didn't look like powerful people. They should be people sent by the Zheng family's first and second branches to monitor them.
After confirming that they were harmless, Liang Lin then protected Shen Ziyao out of the car and entered the hotel.
When they were finally safe, Shen Ziyao asked, "Is it the Zheng family? Will they cause trouble again?"
Liang Lin sneered: "They are too busy taking care of themselves to cause trouble."
Shen Ziyao finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had originally planned to go shopping before leaving and buy two beautiful clothes to wear. The original owner's clothes were all in Zheng Yan's apartment, and she needed to supplement her wardrobe.
It’s better to go back to the mainland now, Hong Kong is too unsafe.
"Yaoyao, when are we leaving?"
After Shen Yu and Zheng Yuan applied for a pass to the mainland in the morning, they did not go with Shen Ziyao to handle the account cancellation procedures. They had been in the hospital all night last night and they were a little overwhelmed.
Shen Yu had just fallen asleep in the hotel when Zheng Yuan walked out. If it weren't for the protection of the people arranged by Liang Lin, she might have been captured by people from the Zheng family's first or second house.
The Zheng family is in a precarious situation now, and they have to divide their energy to pay attention to them. If she and Zheng Yuanlai stay in Hong Kong when the Zheng family recovers, they will really be dead. If she was somewhat resistant to returning to the mainland before, now she can't wait to go back.
Shen Ziyao was very happy that she could go with her. She was also thinking that if she really didn't want to go back, she was still worried about where to send her and Zheng Yuan so that they would be safe and free from trouble.
So he happily replied: "I can go back to the mainland this afternoon."
Shen Yu was relieved. The danger was resolved, and a wave of grief and indignation surged in his heart. Fifteen years had passed, and he didn't know whether those "old friends" had received retribution?
Because they were afraid of danger if they went out, they did not go anywhere else in the afternoon and went directly to the airport. With the help of the Hong Kong police, they easily booked tickets.
The police chief from that day later came to the airport in person to see him off. He also called Liang Lin aside and advised him on the path to a successful career.
Liang Lin didn't get angry after hearing this, he just said to him: "Thank you for your kindness, but the environment is different, and the path to officialdom is also different. We don't care about empty talk, we only care about strength."
The sheriff patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Brother, the careers of Chinese people are always similar. Pleasing your superiors is a magic weapon for promotion no matter where you go."
Liang Lin couldn't make sense to him, so he simply stopped talking about it and just wished him a bright future.
The sheriff laughed and said, "Thank you for your kind words, but when will you be able to get your tracking locator?"
This was exactly the purpose of his coming. As Liang Lin said, they didn't care about the small amount of money. They just wanted to quickly solve the case and make meritorious service.
Seeing that he was anxious, Liang Lin comforted him, "When we return, we will send someone to discuss it. We estimate that the goods will be available in two months at most."
The sheriff was relieved: "Then I will wait for your good news."
After boarding the plane, Shen Ziyao asked Liang Lin: "Have you found a way to pay the deposit?"
Liang Lin nodded calmly, and Shen Ziyao clenched her fist. She was finally going to have some income. Although money couldn't solve all problems, it was undeniable that it brought people a sense of security.
As soon as they boarded the plane, Kyoto immediately received the news that the people had finally returned, and their 2G communication technology could finally be officially launched.
When the communication technology experts learned that Shen Ziyao was coming back soon, they immediately sorted out the problems that had accumulated over the past few days. Raw materials, manufacturing equipment, etc. were all difficult problems. It would be empty talk if 2G technology was not solved.
Shen Ziyao didn't know yet that there were so many problems waiting for her in the country, and she didn't know that the situation was much more difficult than what Director Du told her. It would probably not be easy for her to roll out 2G technology.
At this moment on the plane, she was glaring at Zheng Yuan. This little girl actually asked her when she would marry Liang Lin?
It's really irrelevant. She and Liang Lin were not real in the first place, so how could they get married?
Zheng Yuan took the opportunity to teach her: "Cousin, we are alone in the mainland. If we don't have a backer, we will be bullied. Although my cousin's husband has no money, he is an official with a bright future. If we want to build our own wealthy family, we can't do it without someone in the officialdom."
Shen Yu, who was sitting next to her, was moved after hearing what his daughter said. They now had exclusive technology and were not afraid of having no money, but what they lacked was a backer, and Liang Lin was a ready-made backer.
So she also started to urge marriage: "Xiao Liang, Yaoyao gave up her enrollment in a world-renowned university for you, turned against the Zheng family for you, and came to Kyoto where she has no relatives for you. You must not let her down."
Liang Lin glanced at the embarrassed Shen Ziyao and said seriously: “I won’t let Yaoyao down.”
Shen Yu continued to ask: "When are you going to get married?"
Liang Lin looked at Shen Ziyao again: "I listen to her."
Shen Yu was satisfied and looked at his niece. Shen Ziyao said with a stiff upper lip: "There are also Brother Liang's family members. We have to ask them."
Shen Yu let her go and asked Liang Lin: "After you see Kyoto, when will our two families meet to discuss your marriage?"
Shen Ziyao was in a dilemma. This fake relationship had to be resolved. Otherwise, if it continued like this, her role would no longer be that of a fake couple, but a fake husband and wife.
What she didn't know was that Liang Lin's parents were preparing items for their son's wedding at home. Although the date had not been set and they hadn't met their future daughter-in-law, please understand these parents who have an older unmarried man. They won't let go of even a glimmer of hope.
So the first problem that Chen Ziyao and Liang Lin, the fake couple, faced after arriving in Kyoto was the urging of marriage from their parents. So could they break up as soon as they got married?
