Chu Xiaxing was also unable to answer Song Wenye's question. She pondered for a few seconds before offering to suggest, "I'll take you there."
Song Wenye's thoughts are very confused now, and he is not as polite as usual. After a while, he was already sitting in the car, and when he saw Chu Xiaxing start the car, he suddenly woke up: "Director Chu, I'll just go back by myself..."
"Okay, shut up, there aren't many people who can ride in my car." Chu Xiaxing gave him a sideways look, "Your current state of driving is also a killer on the road."
Song Wenye's head was cluttered, and when he heard the words, he no longer insisted, but was silently absent-minded in the car.
Chu Xiaxing generally understood Song Wenye's confusion. Duan Hui was the second local leader in charge of Yanchuan Film and Television City. After the disappearance of others, the project funds disappeared. In addition, there were rumors at that time that there were overseas accounts related to Duan Hui. Therefore, many people said that he absconded overseas, and it was difficult to arrest such criminal suspects who fled.
The most critical part of this matter is that the project funds are related to Duan Hui's account. If Duan Hui was killed, why would he still have a trace overseas
Chu Xiaxing is actually not sure of Duan Hui's true whereabouts. Just like what she once said to Xie Zhaoyan, she believes that Duan Hui is not a liar based on her feelings, but the evidence points to her being deceived. After all, if Duan Hui intends to abscond overseas, he will never tell the director who he has known for a long time.
In Chu Xiaxing's memories, Duan Hui was a good-natured and ordinary man. With his ardent political ideals, he enjoyed himself in the xenophobic Yanchuan City and successfully gained the trust of the people around him.
Because of the inaction of the previous leader, Yanchuan Film and Television City was stranded for a long time. The arrival of Duan Hui has brought new changes to Yanchuan City, which can be said to be a remarkable thing. Although his reputation was ruined after his disappearance, he did have a much-loved time.
Apart from work, Duan Hui is quite a boring man, and he may not have a little fun. Duan Hui's favorite thing to do is to show off the family photo in her wallet, and Chu Xiaxing would perfunctory each other with impatience every time. At most, she would laugh at "It's amazing to have a beautiful wife", and then look at the other party silly .
At that time, there was no well-known Yuansheng Group in the country, and Chu Xiaxing didn't know Duan Hui's family background, only that he had a wife and a son. His son is a precocious and alert little boy, and occasionally he deliberately puts on the air of a mature adult. When he is most naive, he is boasting of Duan Hui's political achievements, and he has set high ambitions to become a bigger official than his father in the future. something bigger.
Now, the little boy of that year has grown into Song Wenye. He did not succeed in his career, and he may have to accept the reality that his father is not as beautiful as he imagined.
Inside the car, Chu Xiaxing glanced at the navigation page, then she looked at Song Wenye, who was silent the whole time, and said calmly, "We're here, do you want to go up?"
"Please wait a moment." Song Wenye took a deep breath. He calmed down and confessed in a low voice, "I still don't know how to face Grandpa."
Chu Xiaxing speculated that Song Wenye could not digest the news himself. If Duan Hui was really alive now, then he was indeed a corrupt official and criminal who abandoned his wife and children, and even played tricks on the people closest to him.
"Director Chu should know about Yanchuan's past?" Song Wenye lowered his eyes and said, "You also have a good relationship with Teacher Wang."
Chu Xiaxing didn't rashly ask any questions, Song Wenye guessed that she knew the inside story, and people in the circle would exchange news with each other.
Chu Xiaxing: "I know."
Song Wenye smiled bitterly: "Actually, Dong Duan is a very traditional person. He still retains the idea of a scholar, peasant, businessman, and so he was very proud of my father. Later, he put this high hope on me..."
Chu Xiaxing understood. This was a common thought of the older generation. The so-called "I am an official, for the world, not for the king; for the people, not for a surname." different. This incident not only destroyed the image of a father in Song Wenye's heart, but also probably destroyed the image of a son in Dong Dong's heart.
Chu Xiaxing: "But you are indeed very good. Maybe his high hopes have nothing to do with your father."
This was Chu Xiaxing's innermost thoughts. Despite the factors of blood and kinship, Song Wenye's personal abilities really had nothing to say. Although he regretfully lost the opportunity to enter politics, he tried to restart Yanchuan Film and Television City with a new identity.
Song Wenye: "But I'm not sure if I'll let him down later."
Chu Xiaxing saw his hesitation, she simply got out of the car and opened the door on his side, and sighed softly, "Okay, send the Buddha to the west, I will send you up, you can also buffer?"
Song Wenye was a little hesitant at first, but when he heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and always felt that her tone was inexplicably familiar.
In his mind, the dark night of Yanchuan City in his childhood came to mind. Someone also took him down a dark road, but he had completely forgotten the appearance of the other party, and only remembered what the other party said at that time.
[Although I can't follow you all the time, but I can walk with you for a while, you have to accept that most of your life is running alone. ]
[…But isn’t it pitiful to live like this? ]
[It sounds really miserable, but as long as you concentrate on running down, maybe you will meet someone you trust at the next corner... Now listen to my order, you have to run by yourself! ]
Chu Xiaxing led Song Wenye to the mansion. She was not surprised by Mr. Song's quietness, only that he was still immersed in his emotions.
Song Wenye looked at her back. A few scattered clues flashed in his mind, but he couldn't put them together right away. He hesitated, "Director Chu, in fact, I have always been reluctant to believe that my father absconded. There is an important reason..."
Chu Xiaxing: "What?"
Song Wenye: "The night before my father disappeared, I was almost detained by a group of strangers. At that time, someone led me out. That person..."
Before Song Wenye could finish speaking, someone in front of him opened his mouth and interrupted him.
"Wen Ye! You're finally back!" Duan Chengyan's mother saw Song Wenye appear, her frowning face finally flashed a ray of light, and then she frowned, "Your grandfather is not in a stable mood now."
Song Wenye was still hesitant in the car, but in the mansion he seemed to suddenly tighten the strings. He habitually put on a steady mask and said calmly: "Okay, I'll go take a look, have the investigators left?"
Mother Duan said helplessly: "Yes, anyway, I asked a lot of things, including whether my brother has contacted us, or the one that cooperated with the investigation before..."
Domestic organizations specialize in arresting economic criminals who have fled overseas. Naturally, they must also pay close attention to the relatives of criminal suspects, and even monitor their calls when necessary. Song Wenye and others will receive the news, also because the relevant organizations have recently discovered Duan Hui's whereabouts overseas, and of course they have to come to the door to investigate.
When Chu Xiaxing saw Song Wenye's family, she immediately took a few steps back with interest. At the same time, she noticed that Song Wenye's face changed very quickly. He was still a little bit unacceptable in the car, but now he forcibly cheered up and became the impeccable President Song.
Small paragraphs can have moments of shaky, but Song Wenye can't have a fragile side, they are all digested after his "please wait a moment", like the wind passing through the water without a trace.
Mother Duan saw the strange Chu Xiaxing, she tentatively asked politely, "Who is this?"
Song Wenye: "This is Director Chu Xiaxin, and I happened to be talking to her about Yanchuan."
Of course Mother Duan knew that the director of "Thunder Gun Saint" was in charge of her son, but she was still quite astonished: "...Are you sure you want to talk about this with your grandfather now?"
Mother Duan saw that Song Wenye brought the director to the door, misunderstood that he was going to introduce the two sides today, of course she felt unbelievable. She felt that the mention of Yanchuan would stimulate the heart of the old man, especially Duan Dong's mood swings now.
Song Wenye seemed to be wearing an airtight mask in front of his elders. He calmly said, "I'll go see Grandpa first, please accompany Director Chu."
"Okay, okay, you go first..." Duan's mother seemed to be quite convinced by his words, she smiled politely at Chu Xiaxing, and took the initiative to extend her hand, "Hello director, I am Duan Chengyan's mother, I haven't met you formally, let's sit over there."
Chu Xiaxing shook hands with her politely: "Hello."
Song Wenye went to the study to communicate with Duan Dong, while Chu Xiaxing sat down with Duan's mother. She could see that the other party was restless and seemed to be paying attention to the movement of the study.
Mother Duan was absent for a moment, she noticed Director Chu's gaze, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, things happened a bit suddenly, and I'm in a mess right now..."
The whole family thought that Duan Hui was no longer alive, but now suddenly discovering his whereabouts, the impact was naturally great.
"I didn't expect Director Chu to be interested in Yan Chuan. To be honest, Wen Ye has contacted a lot of celebrities, but no one dared to touch this matter." Mother Duan sighed regretfully, "But today I want to disappoint you, I guess it's white. You're wasting your time by running."
The family originally thought that Yanchuan Film and Television City was Duan Hui's last wish, but who would have thought that things would turn around, it would be a big joke.
Chu Xia said calmly, "That's not necessarily true."
Duan's mother was stunned: "My dad... Duan Dong probably won't agree, and Wen Ye may have a change in his heart... "
Chu Xiaxing: "I think Mr. Song chose to do this not only because of his father."
Mother Duan said thoughtfully: "Really? He told you about it? Because he has his own ideas since he was a child, we occasionally don't know what he is thinking."
Song Wenye could already be on his own in the group. His treatment at home was different from that of Duan Chengyan. As the elders get older, he wants to rush to the front more and more, and won't show the appearance of no idea.
Chu Xiaxing remembered the little boy who pretended to be an adult in his memory. He boldly said that he wanted to surpass his father. He was very imposing, so he said softly: "It should be said."
Although Xiao Xiao Duan has grown into Song Wenye, it does not mean that Xiao Xiao Duan has disappeared.
In the study, Song Wenye had just stepped into the room when he heard Dong Duan's questioning: "Why do you think he would do such a thing? Is that money worth letting him throw everything away? I really can't believe my own education. Such a son!"
Duan Dong deceived himself and chose to believe his son in the past, but he heard his whereabouts again many years later, became much older overnight, became lost, and trembled: "He hasn't contacted us for so many years, even your mother is gone. no response..."
Song's mother and Duan Hui had a very good relationship. She passed away unhappily not long after, and Duan Dong felt even more ashamed of his daughter-in-law now.
Decades ago, the Duan family chose to believe in Duan Hui; decades later, everyone's belief collapsed.
Song Wenye looked at his grandfather who was on the verge of collapse, and said calmly, "Dong Dong, I invited Director Chu to come over today. You can talk to her about Yanchuan later."
Duan Dong was shocked: "You still want to do this? Your father is..."
Song Wenye swept away the sway in the car, he was quite calm in front of his elders, and returned to his former sensible state, and said slowly: "I chose to do this not because I am Duan Hui's son, but because I am Yuan. Song Wenye of the Holy Group, I only proceed from the interests of the group and take responsibility for all my decisions."
Song Wenye held back the emotions in his chest, he understood that at this moment he lost his temper, the house would be in complete chaos, and things would become irreversible. The elders can no longer bear these, he must take over everything rationally and force everything back to the right track.
When everyone is emotional, someone has to cut off the emotion and take over the situation again, and that is his responsibility.
If President Duan thinks about this, he may always feel guilty and blame himself for his failure to educate his son. He thought that his son would help the world, but who ever thought that it was completely different from what he imagined. This was a heavy blow to the conservative old man.
Song Wenye: "We can't be immersed in our emotions all the time. This is also irresponsible to the shareholders of the group. Since I make a decision, I have confidence in the follow-up earnings. As for whether Duan Hui will obey the law in the future, it has nothing to do with us. "
"He thinks that way is more profitable, but I believe in my own way, at least we have a clear conscience."
Song Wenye is now thankful that he has improved his acting skills so that he can say this calmly in front of Duan Dong without revealing his inner emotions.
Duan Dong was stunned for a moment, he looked at Song Wenye, who was righteous and killed his relatives, and finally rushed to a sense of relief: "Good good, good boy, we have a clear conscience, we have a clear conscience..."
His son may have disappointed him, but his grandson was not, or even better than he thought.
