Chapter 80 A Tragedy Caused by a Promise
Chapter 80 A Tragedy Caused by a Promise
In particular, when he heard from Alice that his old friend Edron had passed away due to illness, and that the business empire he founded was now only supported by Alice, a woman, he felt even more embarrassed.
However, what makes Meng Xianghua feel sorry the most is that Alice is still single so far. He could tell from Alice's eager eyes that Alice was clearly still waiting for him, which made Meng Xianghua both moved and ashamed.
Meng Xianghua invited Alice to his home, introduced her to his wife and son, and told her about the domestic political system and living customs.
Tell her, let alone a leading cadre of his level, even an ordinary citizen should not mess with the regulations, and must abide by the rules and regulations that should be followed.
And persuaded Alice to find a like-minded life partner to start a family, and save relatives and friends from worrying.
At that time, Alice had obviously understood the hidden meaning in Meng Xianghua's voice, but with a hint of sadness and mischievousness, Alice followed Meng Xianghua's voice and said with a smile: "Meng, I saw your family, and I also saw you and your family. Your wife is very loving. If I can't marry you in this life, then I will marry your son, so I can still see you often."
Meng Xianghua is familiar with the customs of foreign countries. Although he knows their humorous ways, he can clearly see Alice's seriousness from Alice's eyes.
My son is only nineteen years old this year, and Alice is already thirty-eight years old. When his son reached the legal age of marriage, even if he did not marry late, it would take three or four years. By that time, Alice was already in her early forties.
Not to mention the mismatch in age between the two, and not to say whether his son would like Alice. Just saying that my first love is my daughter-in-law is something I can't get over in my heart.
Therefore, Meng Xianghua smiled and said: "Alice, in our country, there is a saying of ordering a child marriage, and there is also a saying of using the fingertips as a matchmaker. Although the method I said is different from these two methods, the meaning is the same. Yes. How about this, after you go back, hurry up and find a young man to marry, and when my son has a son or daughter, he can marry your son or daughter, and at that time, we will still be relatives!"
For Meng Xianghua, this is just a perfunctory excuse to persuade Alice to marry her son, and it is also a good intention to persuade Alice to marry quickly.
Unexpectedly, what he said was firmly heard by Alice. Not only did they encourage Meng Xianghua's son, Meng Linghui, to study abroad, but he also encouraged him to find a blond, blue-eyed daughter-in-law and get married quickly. At the same time, she also opened her heart, began to make friends and fall in love seriously, and planned to give birth to a son as soon as possible.
It seems that what Meng Xianghua said about getting her married to his son made Alice look forward to and encouraged her.
However, perhaps because Meng Linghui grew up in China, he has always been very resistant to finding a blond foreign girl. On the contrary, Meng Sisi's mother, who is also a foreign student from his country, called, and the two soon got along. fell in love.
For this helpless result, Alice had no choice but to accept it. But she called Meng Linghui's insistence on finding a girl from her own country "racial discrimination".
In order to prevent the occurrence of "racial discrimination" in the next generation, she delayed the marriage of her son and Meng Linghui's daughter (actually, Meng Sisi was not born at this time, but Alice had already taken her for granted in her heart as her own daughter-in-law ) Alice recruited Meng Linghui and his wife into Edron.
Not only that, because of Meng Sisi's mother not wanting to go home, Alice even got all of Meng Sisi's uncle and aunt to the United States.
Such a strategy really made Alice's plan succeed. Meng Sisi spent all her life in the United States until Meng Sisi was born, and then to her childhood and junior high school.
However, after the 1990s, as Meng Xianghua's status in China continued to rise, it was obviously inappropriate for his son and daughter-in-law to stay abroad, so Alice's work was done and the son and his family were brought back to the country.
However, Meng Xianghua didn't know at all. In fact, the main reason for Alice to let her future daughter-in-law go back to China was because of the deep relationship between this little girl, Meng Sisi, and her son, Jack Davis. The young couple who grew up seeing them are very dear, and he doesn't think anyone can pry the son's corner.
However, what Alice never dreamed of was that the relationship between his son and Meng Sisi was really deep, it was so deep that it was as innocent as a brother and sister, and it didn't involve any personal relationship at all. Meng Sisi regards Jack as her own brother, and Jack or Meng Sisi as her younger sister. The two of them really did not develop together according to the kind of plot Alice envisioned.
During the winter and summer vacations, either Jack came to China, or Meng Sisi went to the United States. The two little guys were still as close as before, which made Alice see it and smiled in her heart, and didn't even notice that something was wrong.
But the difference between the brother-sister bond and the lovers came into play once the two kids were in college. In the end, both her son and Meng Sisi actually started dating boyfriends and girlfriends in their respective universities, which made Alice very angry.
He told his son that only by marrying Meng Sisi can he inherit her property and the Edron Group. Unexpectedly, that boy Jack actually said that he was willing to give up everything Alice owned for the sake of love.
In a rage, Alice ran to the capital, and told Meng Xianghua a Chinese idiom that has been passed down for a long time: "A man cannot stand without faith."
You have failed me once, are you still teasing me this time? Let your granddaughter marry my son, this is what you personally promised. Otherwise, I may not get married and have this child in my life.
Now that things are like this, what do you think should be done?
At that time, Mr. Meng had just served as the prime minister of a big country, so you can't say that my words don't count, can you? Don't say that big conglomerate families like Alice and some political families abroad have political marriages, even in China, this phenomenon is not unheard of. In front of Alice, he didn't have the confidence in the first place, and it simply wouldn't work to perfuse her with the words of freedom of love and parents' non-interference.
Therefore, because of his face, Mr. Meng made a choice between his granddaughter's happiness and his own reputation for the first time. Therefore, this is where Meng Sisi told Liu Yang that the two broke up. She knew that her little arms and legs couldn't hold back her grandpa.
Besides, even if she doesn't think about herself, she still has to think about Liu Yang's safety, right? Don't say that Liu Yang's life is hard to save with his grandfather's crooked mouth, even if Alice wants Liu Yang to disappear from this world, it is a piece of cake.
As soon as Meng Sisi graduated here, she was sent to the United States by her family. Liu Yang is so stupid that he doesn't know anything, he thought Meng Sisi had changed his mind.
In fact, how did he know that Meng Sisi agreed to marry Jack against his will because of him?
In fact, Brother Jack in the United States also reluctantly agreed to marry Meng Sisi because his lover was threatened with his life.
The little friends who grew up together like brothers and sisters are now going to be married. The two of them didn't smile at all, and their hearts were full of sadness, letting others arrange the wedding. It's hard for others to understand this kind of feeling.
After coming out of the church, according to the wedding procedure, the groom drove a very cool convertible sports car and drove the bride in a white wedding dress to the new home.
However, when the groom, with a wry smile on his face, helped Meng Sisi get into the car and sat down in a gentlemanly manner, he turned to the driver and opened the door to get into the car. Come here... With a loud noise, the groom was killed on the spot, and the bride became a widow without even entering the bridal chamber.
At this moment, Meng Sisi saw the vigor and boldness of American girls, and also knew what eternal love is. It was Jack's passionate girlfriend, Grace Mitchell, who killed the groom with a car.
In the words of Grace, it is "what I can't have, no one else can have."
Meng Sisi, who was extremely frightened, was sent to the hospital. She touched a pack of sleeping pills hidden in her wedding dress that she would never use anymore, but Meng Sisi couldn't feel happy at all.
The heartbroken Alice was devastated physically and mentally. Although Grace Mitchell was sentenced to life imprisonment, it could not make up for the pain of the loss of the son of Alice and his wife.
The couple couldn't take care of the heavy business of Adlon Group even now, so they had to give up all the rights to Meng Sisi, who was already their legal daughter-in-law.
After this lesson, Alice finally had a clearer understanding. While handing over the power, she also told Meng Sisi: "It's hard for you, my child. From now on, this family will need to rely on you to support it. However, Jack is no longer here, and you have enough freedom for your marriage." , I will not have any more interference..."
With a trace of guilt and responsibility to Adlon Group, Meng Sisi wholeheartedly took over the power from Alice, and started to take care of the business with all her heart.
When she finally took control of the company and everything was on the right track, she was shocked to find that several years had passed in a hurry.
The appearance of that handsome young man whose heart was broken by her back then came to mind even more clearly. However, after many inquiries, none of the classmates I knew had any news of Liu Yang.
Until the last meeting in Beijing, she still received a message from Shao Xingyu, saying that he had seen Liu Yang at the airport. Meng Sisi was so excited that she wanted to cry at that time, and she gave a death order to Shao Xingyu, a classmate and subordinate, no matter what she thought of, she had to ask Liu Yang out.
Shao Xingyu lived up to his orders, invited Liu Yang to Ma Zhigang's club, and asked Meng Sisi to meet Liu Yang. Unexpectedly, Liu Yang poured wine on Han Bing's head in the middle of it. It was unintentional, which unintentionally caused Han Bing to fall in love with this big bastard who poured wine on his head. This is Meng Sisi Did not expect.
