Chapter 1522: Luo Yan's Chapter at the End of Volume (Two in One)
Chapter 1522 End of Volume - Luo Yan Chapter (Two-in-One)
Mid-May.
Futian Ten Mu Land, Manyue Restaurant.
The small dining grids are surrounded by lush green potted plants, and the air cooler is blowing, sending gusts of cool breeze. The courtyard layout is unique in a jungle of steel and concrete.
Luo Yan took a look at the dishes on the table.
Thai yellow curry deep-sea prawns, Indian dry fried curry chicken, Tom Yum Goong, green papaya salad, sweet mango sticky rice, and a pot of sour soup lemon sea bass.
I always felt that Thai food tasted a bit strange when I ate it before, but this restaurant is good today. Except for Tom Yum Goong, I still can't drink it. The green papaya salad and sour soup lemon sea bass are quite to her taste, especially the latter. Take a chopstick of fish meat, dip it in the sour soup and put it in your mouth. That sour and refreshing feeling...
Of course, eating is not the focus for her. Although the two people opposite are eating quite happily, Wei Yunjie seems to have completely forgotten Zhao Changming.
She looked at Lin Yue, who was helping her mother pick up food. She opened her mouth several times and swallowed her words back for this cheap brother, because she didn't want to disturb the family dinner that looked like a son-in-law meeting his mother-in-law.
Brother?
If she didn't know that Xiaoguo and Liang Shuang were pursuing him, she might have been tempted.
So, she really didn't know how to speak about the experience of the Aoma Group and Duan Jiabao's current situation, but if she didn't speak, as a good roommate and bestie, she felt guilty.
Originally, the Aoma Group caused heated discussions last year because of intellectual property issues and the chairman's inappropriate remarks, and its stock price plummeted. It has just improved in the past six months. Now the EU has issued a sky-high fine of 200 million euros on the grounds of low-price dumping. If the money is paid, the group will inevitably suffer. If it does not pay, it will lose the largest external market. In addition, the impact of the Sino-US trade war and the tension in relations with Australia, the business situation is not optimistic.
At this moment, someone reported Aoma Group to the tax department for tax evasion and provided detailed records of fund transactions and relevant evidence, which triggered a crisis of trust in Aoma Group. Dealers returned goods, partners collected debts, and upstream manufacturers demanded early payment of commercial bills... Straws fell one by one, and finally crushed Aoma Group. After seeking to extend the debt due in May without success, Duan's father had to file for bankruptcy with the court.
A multi-billion-dollar enterprise collapsed just like that. Not only did no brother enterprise lend a hand, but the local department also chose to stand idly by. Netizens applauded the collapse of this sanitary ware enterprise that licked foreigners because of the loss of the EU market. They said that Duan's father licked until he had nothing.
People with simple minds have simple ideas, and those with impure minds think more. Why is a company that can earn foreign exchange finished after saying it? Can any domestic company really replace Aoma Group in the EU market in the future?
Of course, this is not what Luo Yan wants to consider. She just wants to know whether Lin Yue did it, because her intuition tells her that he is inseparable from it.
"Did Zhao Changming look for you yesterday?"
Lin Yue's question interrupted her wild thoughts. When she heard that it was about her mother and Zhao Changming, she quickly calmed down and listened attentively.
Wei Yunjie nodded: "Yes."
"What did he say?"
"He asked me why I hadn't contacted him during this period, and whether I was worried that the suspicion of the outside world would have an adverse impact on me. He also said that he had already talked to Qu Wan and would go through the divorce procedures when Zhao Cheng went to college."
"The implication is that he wants to take a step further with you?"
"Yes."
"What did you answer him?"
"I said this was the last time I met him and there would be no future. He didn't understand and asked me why I treated him like this, so I showed him a photo and told him that Luo Yan and his son Zhao Cheng were dating. If Zhao Cheng knew about our relationship, he would probably not recognize him as his father from now on."
"Is Zhao Changming scared?"
"Yes, he chose the former between his son and me."
Wei Yunjie sighed heavily when she said this, and she looked like she couldn't bear to look back on the past.
However, Luo Yan knew that, regretful as it was, there was no chance for her, a mother with a strong sense of responsibility, to turn back. The only thing she could do was to draw a clear line with Zhao Changming and never have any contact with him again.
Previously, this cheap brother said that there was a way to make Wei Yunjie willingly cut off contact with Zhao Changming, and there was no possibility of rekindling the old relationship, and that Wei Yunjie would live a happy and fulfilling life. She didn't believe it at first, until he told her the detailed steps and gave her a few days to think about it.
In the end, she compromised and agreed.
And this method was very simple... let her act out a play with Zhao Cheng.
According to Lin Yue, although Zhao Changming was very close to Wei Yunjie and even promised to divorce Qu Wan, he was still very concerned about his son's affairs. If he found out that Zhao Cheng was in love with her, what would he choose? Would he continue to associate with Wei Yunjie at the risk of being hated by his son for a lifetime, or would he stop the loss in time? Would he find a way to ease the relationship with Qu Wan and then repair this broken family?
Being able to sit on the position of chairman of Weishi Home Furnishing, he must be a clear-headed person, and this choice question will not be difficult for him.
On the other hand, Wei Yunjie saw that Zhao Changming chose Zhao Cheng, what about her? What will she do? Continue to make mistakes or stop at the brink of danger?
For Lawyer Wei, this choice question... should not be difficult either.
Luo Yan felt a little sympathetic to Zhao Changming. His career had plummeted, and his marriage and relationship had suffered setbacks. If I could describe it in one sentence... He lost his wife and lost his army? No, it should be said that this childlike old demon was reduced to ashes in a matter of seconds.
So now, she is really convinced, and no longer thinks that Jiang Xiaoguo has invested too much, because this person is worth it.
The cheap brother opposite... It would be great if they were really a family and he was her biological brother. Then he wouldn't always remember his deceased father when he was wronged, and would have allies to resist his mother's preaching.
But it's a pity...
On the other side, the conversation between Wei Yunjie and Lin Yue continued.
"I have a question to ask you about Dingsheng Group's debt restructuring case."
"What's the problem? Tell me."
"You were the one who introduced Junhao to Mr. Lu in Changsheng, right?"
At Dingsheng Investment, a gambling agreement failed before, and later the boss got involved because of illegal fund-raising, leaving a debt relationship. Now multiple creditors have submitted debt restructuring applications to the court, and Junhao, where she works, has also been hired Joining the pie-sharing party, she had a strange feeling as more corporate data was revealed and the more she learned about the creditor situation.
Lin Yue said: "That's right, the wealth should not flow to outsiders."
"Sure enough, it's you." Wei Yunjie said, "It's not just that the wealth doesn't go to outsiders. If I'm not wrong, you must be the one behind Changsheng."
"Oh, you are so smart, it will make me, the mastermind behind the scenes, feel more pressure. There are some things that I have to learn to see through without telling them." Seeing that she didn't smile at all, Lin Yue could only shrug and said truthfully: "You shouldn't say that. Me, I should say Mr. Su and Pulling Capital.”
"Is there a difference?"
"have."
"Does it matter?"
"unimportant."
Wei Yunjie said: "What do you want to do?"
Lin Yue said: "It's very simple. Pulling Capital wants the original shares of Weishi Home held by Dingsheng."
Wei Yunjie put down the chopsticks she had been holding in her hand, frowned and thought for a while, and finally realized: "Pu Ling wants to obtain the original shares of Weishi Home at a low price through debt restructuring? In other words, do you think Weishi Home Furnishing Co., Ltd. Will Home Furnishing’s share price rise?”
“Isn’t it normal for stock prices to go up and down?”
Lin Yue said it lightly, but the listeners were shocked.
On the way here just now, he told him about Zhao Changming's investment in Puling to provoke him.
Now the result is this.
Qu Wan and Zhao Changming have reached a divorce agreement; she has also drawn a clear line with Zhao Changming; Weishi Home's stock price broke on the first day of listing and is still at a low level; Zhao Changming's partner Li Dongqing was imprisoned, and Dingsheng Investment went bankrupt; At this time, Pu Ling obtained the original shares of Weishi Home at a low price by controlling Changsheng, and either made a fortune when the stock price rebounded, or forced Zhao Changming to repurchase the shares at the negotiated price, forcing Weishi Home into bankruptcy, reorganization or founding. The person is out and takes another bite.
This is the price of gaining Pu Ling's reputation, and this is the consequence of playing tricks with him.
Killing someone is also heart-wrenching, this guy is really vicious and cunning.
Wei Yunjie mourned for Zhao Changming in her heart. After all, he was a business partner who had worked together for many years, and he could also be considered an ex-boyfriend. Just because he offended his imagined love rival, he was pushed into a desperate situation step by step. This is really...
Alas~
The mother and daughter were each thinking about their own things, and they even lost the appetite to eat.
"Hey, stone?"
The call from the side pulled Luo Yan's consciousness back from the messy stakes. She felt that the voice was very familiar. When her eyes swept over the approaching person, she couldn't help but froze. She was really an acquaintance - her ex. Boyfriend Lu Ran!
The two of them had not seen each other since they had a falling out over the guarantee letter in the self-study class. They didn't expect that Brother Cheap would bring them here to eat Thai food and they would actually meet him.
"Lu Ran? What a coincidence."
Luo Yan stood up unconsciously.
"You come here to eat too." Lu Ran tried his best to appear calm.
"Haha, yes, you are..."
"Oh, today isn't my birthday. My parents took me out for a dinner."
Luo Yan looked at the middle-aged man and woman standing beside him: "Happy birthday."
"Thanks."
"By the way, aren't you going to take the postgraduate entrance examination? How's it going?"
"My grades were average and I didn't get admitted to the Central Finance and Economics School."
"Don't be discouraged, keep working hard." Luo Yan smiled awkwardly at him.
"What about you, how are you doing lately?" This time it was Lu Ran who asked.
"I now work for a travel agency, leading tour groups from Hong Kong."
"That's very good."
Only then did he shift his attention from Luo Yan's face to the two people across the dining table.
"Hello, aunt..."
He stopped mid-sentence and stared blankly at the person next to Wei Yunjie. Isn't it difficult for Luo Yan to accept someone named Lin being friends with her mother? Why are we actually eating at the same table now?
He looked over with question on his face.
Luo Yan knew what he wanted to ask, but she just pursed her lips and said nothing.
Lu Ran's mother knew Lin Yue, but she didn't understand his relationship with Wei Yunjie. Lu Ran's father didn't even know him. At most, he had heard the name "Lin Yue" from his wife.
"Hello, I am Lu Ran's father."
Now that the juniors know each other, it is a bit inappropriate to stand aside and say nothing as an adult. Lu Ran's father shook Wei Yunjie's hand with the energy of working in the unit: "You are Luo Yan's mother, I remember... you are in Junhao Lawyer A lawyer in a firm?”
Wei Yunjie smiled and said, "That's right."
She didn't know that Lu Ran and Luo Yan were in love, and she didn't know much about the situation of the Lu family. She could only deduce the relationship between the two from the changes in her daughter's expression.
"Who is this……"
Lu Ran's father turned to look at Lin Yue. Just now he was guessing about the relationship between this man and Luo Yan's mother and daughter. Judging from the age, he was older than Lu Ran. He should be Luo Yan's boyfriend, or his cousin. Something like that?
"Hello, I am Luo Yan's brother."
What?
Brother?
Lu Ran's smile froze on his face.
In the past, Shitou swore an oath to the heavens that he would never end his life with Lin. He also said that if this guy hadn't fed Wei Yunjie the ecstasy soup, her mother would not have severed the relationship between her and her daughter. In order to help his beloved girl vent her anger, he even went to study on his own. She had a fight with Lin Yue in her room, and she was almost expelled from school because of it. But now it's good, the two of them have recognized themselves as brother and sister, and their relationship is quite harmonious.
What about him? What did he do before? Fighting for your girlfriend? In the end, he turned himself into a joke, how ironic!
"Stone? Is this real?"
Luo Yan said nothing and looked away.
"say something."
Lu Ran's mother noticed that something was wrong with her son's mood, as if he still had thoughts about his ex-girlfriend. In order not to lose his temper or be embarrassed, she quickly pushed her husband from behind and pulled Lu Ran away.
"Haha, Lawyer Wei, we won't disturb your meal."
Lu Ran's father also tried his best to keep a smile on his face, said "goodbye", and left after his wife.
Lin Yue said very kindly: "Let's go now? Why don't we eat something together? Their lemon seabass in sour soup is very good."
"No, no."
Lu Ran's father said it politely, but his heart was filled with ten thousand alpacas.
The three of them sat down again. Wei Yunjie looked at her daughter, who looked unnatural, and then at Lin Yue, who seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "What's going on with you guys...?"
Lin Yue said: "Ask Luo Yan."
"Yanyan..."
"Mom, can you please stop asking?"
"What's there to say?" Lin Yue said, "That Lu Ran is her ex-boyfriend."
"..."
Now Wei Yunjie understood. No wonder she always felt that the atmosphere between her daughter and the boy was a bit strange. It was not like an ordinary school relationship. It turned out that the two had been friends.
"Yanyan, do you still like him?"
Luo Yan shook her head: "Mom, it's all over."
"If you still like..."
Before Wei Yunjie finished speaking, Lin Yue smiled coldly: "It's impossible."
"Why?"
"Luo Yan... tell your mother."
Luo Yan lowered her head and stirred the soup in front of her with a spoon: "Lu Ran doesn't want to deal with him."
Wei Yunjie understood. No wonder he spoke so sarcastically just now. It turned out that the two of them had a feud. If Lu Ran and Luo Yan got back together, what would Lin Yue do? Does she want a brother who is good at everything, or a boyfriend who doesn't keep his word?
"You are too..."
She stopped talking in the middle of the sentence and could only shake her head helplessly. Thinking about this guy's consistent style and full of sexy tricks, when Lu Ran and his family met him when they came here to eat, they could only say that it was a bad year and they forgot to read the almanac when they went out. .
Lin Yue changed the lemon fish in sour soup that was close to him to Luo Yan: "Don't worry about it. If you lose your boyfriend, you can find him again, but you can't find your relatives."
Luo Yan: "..."
This tone, this tone...
This guy took her and her mother to dinner not only for business matters, but also to practice his principle of retribution, right?
If the guess is true, is the meeting with Lu Ran's family really a coincidence? Or is it that he was sure that this would unfold?
"Yanyan?"
Wei Yunjie couldn't understand that her daughter, who had always been willful and stubborn and never looked back even if she hit the wall, now recognized the reality and learned to accommodate her, actually became so obedient and obedient in front of him, without any edge at all?
Did anything happen between them?
