297、The Road to Counterattack for the Dependents 9

"Classmates, look who this is."

Jiang Chao notified Yan Chu of the location of the class reunion. Perhaps because the number of attendees at this class reunion was relatively complete, the location of the gathering was set in a well-known hotel in the city. It can be seen from the splendid hall decoration. , the cost of this class reunion will not be too low.

However, my original grades were very good, and the high school I went to was one of the best in the city. Basically, those who could go to that school had either good grades or a good family background. Now, it has been many years since graduation, and everyone is doing well. , can fully afford the expenses of this class reunion.

Yan Chu was welcomed in by Jiang Chao. There were already many people in the box at that time. After he spoke, the classmates who were originally talking looked at Yan Chu. His appearance was the same as before, and they naturally recognized the person.

"Isn't this our university tycoon, the great talent Yan Chu? I haven't heard anything from you in these years. Why, you probably have too much aura as a university tyrant and you went to study abroad, right?"

The news that Yan Chu has been squatting at home these years is actually known to all his classmates. Saying this now can be said to be pretending to be stupid, or it can also be said to be indirect ridicule.

No one likes other people's children, especially after so many years in society, people have become a lot more realistic. When you see a man who used to stand above you, you suddenly find that he also has the qualifications to belittle you and crush you. The urge to seek a sense of accomplishment from you, a weakling, will inevitably arise.

Just like the man just now, he regretted it as soon as he said the words.

Because when he was in school, he had no friendship with Yan Chu, and they had never offended him, so there was no need to go to Yan Chu's trouble.

Although in his eyes Yan Chu was no longer qualified to do anything to him, it was always good to have one less enemy.

"Hahaha, we old classmates haven't gotten together for a long time. Today we will just drink and eat. We will put aside all the work, family and children."

The man changed his words with a smile, stepped forward, and patted Yan Chu's shoulder enthusiastically, as if the two brothers were in good company.

"do not."

Jiang Chao saw the class beauty he had a crush on, a beautiful woman who had already married someone else. The moment Yan Chu came in, Jiang Chao never took his eyes away from Yan Chu. He couldn't help but feel jealous and decided to ridicule him today. Pan Yanchu, let him know that he is now the mud in the ground, and clearly let the other party understand the gap between him and himself.

Also, he wanted Banhua to see clearly what kind of trash she once liked, and to make her regret and feel disgusted by the way she looked at him.

"Our Yan Xueba is such a great person. His current achievements are definitely beyond our reach. I can't do it anymore. I will spend the rest of my life working in a tobacco company, but that doesn't stop me from paying homage to us." What a brilliant resume.”

Jiang Chao seemed to be talking cheerfully, but none of the people present knew what he was really thinking. They couldn't help but turn their eyes to Yan Chu, who had not spoken since he entered the door.

To be honest, they are also curious about what Yan Chu is doing now. Is it true that he has been squatting at home after graduating from college, as rumored?

There is also a rumor that is not widely circulated, saying that he has never even graduated from college, but there is no second classmate studying at Jiaotong University among them, so the authenticity of this rumor cannot be verified.

"I'm not as good as you think. In the past few years, I have just been writing novels at home."

When he came to attend the class reunion today, Yan Chuhai dressed up specially. He looked no longer weak and tired when he first took over this body. He looked much more energetic and had some of the vigor he once had.

"What kind of novel are you writing? Is it like Han Han's, or some messy Internet novel with no cultural content?" Jiang Chao pressed forward step by step, but Duan Xi couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted Jiang Chao.

Duan Xi is the school beauty who once had a crush on Duan.

"Lao Ban's son is sick and cannot come to our class reunion today. Now that the classmates have almost arrived, why don't we let the waiter start serving the food."

Duan Xi glanced at the man who was much more mature than the young boy in high school, and suddenly felt relieved.

During her college years, she never let go of her attention to this man. Therefore, among so many classmates, she was the only one who was sure that he really did not get a diploma and could only be regarded as a high school education level. As for the rumors among her classmates, She didn't know who spread the rumors.

To be honest, she was really disappointed with Yan Chu. After all, he was so outstanding in high school, but later he was so inferior and incompetent.

After graduating from college, the other person not only did not try to repeat his studies, but returned to his hometown as if to escape and began a life of old age. This also made her completely let go of her obsession with the other person and start a new relationship.

In fact, now she has long lost the flutter she had towards Yan Chu, just because he is the man she once liked, so when she saw him being made things difficult for him, Duan Xi couldn't help but stand up. Come out and relieve him.

Jiang Chao saw the flash of disappointment in Ban Hua's eyes. He knew that his goal was achieved and he no longer wanted to continue to make things difficult for Yan Chu. He happily called the waiter in and started today's party.

Qiu Huo happened to be inspecting his family's hotel today. When he passed by the box where Yan Chu was sitting, when the waiter came in with the food, he saw Yan Chu sitting opposite the door, but the other party did not see him.

"Is that box occupied by someone today?"

Qiu Huo asked the manager beside him.

This hotel is owned by Qiujia. Today is a market economy. Qiujia has Qiujia Private Kitchen specifically for the high-end market, which has a very small audience. However, restaurants like this are facing a huge number of mid-range groups, and they can also serve a large number of people every year. Enemies bring a lot of profits.

This concept was also proposed by his father, which enabled Qiujia to seize the market when hotels first became popular. Now Qiujia's hotel chain has become the richest piece of cake in Qiujia's family business.

"Well, it seems to be a class reunion. Two tables have been set up. We have booked a banquet for 5,999 per table in our hotel." The manager is still very familiar with the booking situation of the private rooms, especially these days when the small boss is inspecting, in order to be able to He almost knew the situation in the hotel these past few days by heart of all the performances in front of his boss.

"oh."

Qiu Huo nodded, "Just charge the cost of that box to my account."

Half a month ago, the Qiu family had begun to try to promote some of Yan Chu's recipes in restaurants and private restaurants. The response was very good, especially in private restaurants, due to the emergence of these new dishes, the banquets booked have been scheduled for next year. Spring begins.

Even when the enemy was at its most prosperous, it had never achieved such an achievement.

You must know that Qiujia's private restaurant caters to a group of people who are either rich or noble. When such a big shot comes to eat at Qiujia, it will not only bring rich financial rewards to Qiujia, but also a group of connections that are within easy reach.

After the enemy already had a profitable chain of restaurants, he still regarded the enemy's private kitchen as the foundation of the enemy's family, just for the sake of these connections that others could not reach.

Because of this, Qiu Huo was certainly not stingy about his friendship with Yan Chu, and wished he could worship him as the God of Wealth.

Now it's just two tables of dishes with a total price of over ten thousand, and the cost may only be two or three thousand, so of course he won't care.

The general manager nodded. He had been paying attention to the little boss just now. Naturally, he knew who the person he was looking at was. I am afraid that the young man sitting opposite the door is their friend. He will pay the bill after they finish their meal. When the time comes, he has to go there in person.

"Yan, Yan Chu, we are all old classmates. Since you have written a novel, why not tell us your name, so that we, our old classmates, can support you."

Despite the unhappiness at the beginning, during the whole meal, everyone was having a good time recalling interesting things from high school. However, when the party was about to end, Jiang Chao finally couldn't help it, and stabbed him again because he was drunk and confused. Yan Chu.

In his opinion, Yan Chu was so depressed that even if he wrote novels, he would definitely write about things that were not popular and no one would read them.

Originally he didn't want to say anything to him, but who made the other party vain? During the class reunion, he actually had the nerve to put money on his face and create the illusion of being a "writer". Jiang Chao didn't want to tolerate this anymore.

Dingtian is just a little transparent on the Internet. He still works in a tobacco company. Do you think he is proud?

Jiang Chao would never admit it. Every time he held a class reunion, he would inadvertently bring up his job as a tobacco company employee, and he would bring it up no less than ten times.

"You may not like what I write, but if it is made into a movie one day, I will inform everyone."

Yan Chu put down his chopsticks and said when he was full.

Perhaps it was because in the minds of these classmates that he was not a friend worth making. After a party, no one came to persuade him to drink. When most of the male classmates were drunk, his sober appearance seemed a little... Special.

"Pfft——"

Jiang Chao couldn't help but laugh out loud. What kind of daydream was the other party doing? He patted Yan Chu's shoulder and said with a big tongue: "Okay, if you are ambitious, my old classmate will wait for your novel to be published on the big screen." The day of the curtain.”

I don't know if he can wait for the next life.

In fact, just last week, Yan Chu got a reply from Qiu Huo. Director Li was very interested in his novel. Not long ago, he had a video chat with Director Li to talk about his thoughts on the film and television adaptation of the novel. Afterwards, they had a very happy conversation and it was almost a certainty to sell the copyright.

Yan Chu told the truth, but no one in the audience believed it. Most people were just like Jiang Chao. They just hid their emotions better and congratulated Yan Chu in a perfunctory way.

"I'll treat you to this meal."

Perhaps because he had ridiculed his former love rival, Jiang Chao was in a good mood. He endured the pain and generously changed the originally planned class reunion to a treat.

The banquet they ordered was not of the highest quality. Including drinks, it only cost 12,300 yuan at most. Jiang Chao could still afford this amount of money.

"Hello, sir, our boss has given you a free meal for this meal."

The general manager who saw off the little boss came in and said very politely.

"Free of charge, why free of charge?" This chain restaurant is well-known all over the country. The owner of the restaurant waived their order for no reason. Obviously something was wrong. Could it be that one of them had nothing to do with the owner of this restaurant? There are relationships?

The drunken man was mostly sober now, looking at a bunch of classmates who looked puzzled, wondering which one of them had such a network of connections, but was hiding it because of someone.

He paused when he turned his gaze to Yan Chu, after all, the look on his face from doubt to understanding was too obvious, but how could this man who had been in the countryside for four years have such a friend? Jiang Chao ruled out the other party's suspicion without thinking.

"This gentleman is a friend of our boss." The manager looked at Yan Chu respectfully and said, and now, the people who looked down on him turned pale or green on their faces, and their faces suddenly became strange.

The seemingly harmonious class reunion ended in a strange way. Many classmates were curious about why Yan Chu knew the owner of this hotel chain, but they couldn't bring themselves to ask, but they silently changed their views on Yan Chu in their hearts.

How could he be a liar like the rumored one if he could make friends with such a billionaire? Maybe the rumor was wrong.

This change of concept is both realistic and ridiculous. Yan Chu, who was originally looked down upon by everyone, has a completely different image in everyone's mind just because he has a rich friend.

Only Jiang Chao refused to accept this fact, and emphasized in his heart that even if the other party has a rich friend, so what, he himself is still a useless waste, and he will never catch up with him in this life.

*****

Ten months later, all the classmates who had participated in this class reunion received an email from Yan Chu. The content of the email was two electronic movie tickets. The movie was Director Li's latest masterpiece "Food Store", which is said to be a movie of the same name adapted from a popular novel.

It is said that Director Li originally planned to adapt this novel into a TV series. After all, his achievements in movies in recent years have not been very good. However, for some unknown reason, he decided to adapt this novel into a movie.

The previous preview received a very good response, and many film critics praised it. This may be Director Li's revenge work.

Many of these classmates had originally planned to watch this highly praised movie. Now that they received Yan Chu's movie tickets, almost all of them took their wives, husbands or children to watch this movie suitable for all ages.

At the end of the movie, when they saw the two words Yan Chu at the front of the screenwriter column, they understood the meaning of the other party giving them the movie tickets.

It turned out that what the other party said at the class reunion that day was true.

But since that time, Yan Chu has never come to attend the class reunion again. They also know that it was their behavior at the time that severely hurt the heart of this old classmate. The classmate who was originally so promising and glorious was pushed away by them.

*****

Eight years later

"Yi Yi is still a child. How can a child not be naughty? Don't scold her. You see, the child is scared by you."

As soon as Yan Chu entered the entrance, he heard his mother's voice.

"That's it, isn't it just a cup? It's broken. We Yi Yi know that we are wrong, right? Yi Yi, apologize to your mother quickly and say that you won't dare to do it again in the future."

This is his father's voice. Without thinking, Yan Chu knew what happened.

As expected, when he changed his shoes and walked to the restaurant, he saw two old men protecting a five or six-year-old girl behind them. A woman who was about thirty years old, well-maintained and looked like she was twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, stood opposite the three of them and glared at the girl behind the old men.

This woman was Yan Chu's wife in this world, and also the blind date that his mother arranged for him, Lin Landuo.

Their blind date was in the cinema, and the movie they watched was the movie of the same name "Food Store" adapted from Yan Chu's novel. Yan Chu also learned from her communication that this girl was actually his loyal fan, and a loyal local tyrant reader who occupied the third place on his Overlord Ticket List.

This kind of fate was something Yan Chu had not expected. When he heard the other party recommending the novel she wrote to him like a chatterbox and praising him as an author to the sky, Yan Chu couldn't help but want to laugh.

Perhaps this is how fate began. Originally, they just perfunctorily completed the tasks of the elders of both sides, but as they got along, they realized that they had a good fit in their hobbies, and they really fell in love. Especially when Lin Landuo knew that Yan Chu was the author of "The Restaurant", she stepped up her offensive, making Yan Chu surrender.

In this way, when Yan Chu was 26 years old, they entered the wedding hall after dating for a year, and in the second year, they had the fruit of their love, that is, the little girl protected by the old couple, Yan Weiyi.

Now the second child is open, but because they want to give the only love to this child, the couple gave this baby daughter such a name.

It is said that the next generation is close, and the most doting on this child in the family is Yan Yuanjiang and Gu Aihong. Every time the child makes a mistake, Lin Landuo, as a mother, wants to teach the child a lesson, and the first to stop in front of her is the grandparents.

"Ah Chu, you are back."

Yan Yuanjiang saw his son coming back, and quickly pushed his wife, asking her to bring the little granddaughter who had just made a mistake into the house.

The person in this family who is the strictest towards the granddaughter is the son. On one side is the beloved son, and on the other side is the adored granddaughter. Yan Yuanjiang feels bad no matter who he scolds. So every time his granddaughter makes a mistake and his son wants to scold her, he will choose to separate the two and wait until his son forgets about his granddaughter's mistake.

Although his plan has never been successful, Yan Yuanjiang still enjoys it.

"Wait, what's the matter with this broken bowl?"

Yan Chu did not let his mother take the child back to the house easily, but pointed to the broken bowl and the porridge on the ground and asked.

"Isn't it because Yi Yi is picky about food and doesn't want to eat the carrots in the porridge. When eating, he looked around and didn't know what little idea he was thinking about. As a result, he accidentally broke the bowl."

Lin Landuo spoke helplessly on the side.

The parents-in-law are considerate, the husband is loving, and the daughter is smart. Such a life is almost envied by everyone. Even she sometimes thinks that she is too lucky. It's just an accidental blind date that she met her idol and achieved the highest achievement of marrying her idol.

But life is not always smooth sailing. There are bound to be some bumps and bumps, just like the unconditional indulgence of the parents-in-law to their daughter, which often makes Lin Landuo feel that she is a little powerless in disciplining her daughter.

Fortunately, her husband can bear it and can withstand the pressure of the parents-in-law and educate the daughter who made mistakes.

But except for the disagreement between Lin Landuo and her parents-in-law on the education of her daughter, she was very satisfied with them in other aspects of life. They did not interfere with the relationship between the young couple and did not point fingers at her various behaviors. They were almost the model of model parents-in-law.

In return, Lin Landuo was also very filial to them.

"It's just a bowl, Yiyi didn't do it on purpose, right? Besides, when the bowl fell to the ground, our Yiyi was also scared."

Gu Aihong protected her granddaughter behind her and whispered to her son.

"Mom, this is not about a bowl."

Yan Chu was helpless. The pampering and indulgence that his original body had experienced seemed to be repeated on his daughter. Fortunately, he was still watching. Otherwise, with his daughter's cleverness, relying on the courage of the two old people, it is unknown whether she would jump to the sky.

In a few years, I am afraid that she will be raised to be a little devil.

"Why is it not just about a bowl? Yiyi, quickly say sorry to your parents, and the matter will be over after you say sorry."

Gu Aihong squatted down and hugged her granddaughter lovingly. The bowl just fell to the ground with such a loud noise. Don't scare the child's soul away. You will have to pray to the kitchen god to calm her soul.

"I'm sorry."

Yan Weiyi rolled her big grape-like eyes and met her father's eyes. She lowered her head guiltily, pouted her lips and pointed at her fingers, and said with a little guilt.

Looking at her performance, Yan Chu probably understood that it was probably because his daughter didn't want to eat carrots and deliberately broke the bowl.

He left home and stayed on the set for half a month, and his daughter's temper was raised to be biased. His parents definitely contributed to this.

"Dad, Mom, I want to talk to you."

Yan Chu put down his briefcase, looked at his guilty daughter with an ambiguous look, and then said to his parents.

"What are you talking about?"

Gu Aihong and Yan Yuanjiang looked at their son's serious expression and inexplicably began to get nervous.

Aren't we just talking about our granddaughter? Why do we suddenly have something to talk about with them?

Gu Aihong and Yan Yuanjiang looked at each other and followed their son to the study.

The author has something to say: Some little angels may feel that the emotional line of this world is a bit fast, mainly because the main plot of this story is about the parents, and this short story will be finished tomorrow.
