When the wind blows, sometimes we hope not only for a gentle breeze, but also for a message from someone.
Cheng Ran knew that rebirth did not mean omnipotence, and saving Xie Houming was just a matter of trying his best. In fact, before doing this, Cheng Ran had never thought that he would succeed. To him, Xie Houming was just a mosaic photo of a person being salvaged from a lake and placed in an iron cage that he might see on the news in the future, and a memory of a victim's name...
But when Xie Houming finally survived and came to visit him at home and appeared in front of him, Cheng Ran felt that it was like shaping a clay model with his own hands and watching a work of art take shape bit by bit.
This feeling is hard to describe in words.
It was as if he had mastered the extraordinary power of time and space and had accomplished something very difficult.
As for the capital injection plan that Xie Houming handed over out of gratitude, it was unexpected. A man like Xie Houming was wise and courageous. The bow he made to me and the words "I will never forget your life-saving grace!" were destined to be more than just words.
In his position, he only needed to do a little investigation to know the current situation of Cheng Feiyang's unit. As for the plan, it was actually the maximum help he could provide to pave the way for Cheng Feiyang.
However, since it can reach the maximum limit, it is very likely to break through the constraints of the limit.
As rumored, Xie Houming is capable and courageous, and he values friendship. No wonder the Huagu Group he leads has become so prosperous in a short period of time, and has become the first platform relied on by the Shanhai Municipal Government. But there may be concerns... Xie Houming died in his previous life, and he was rescued in this life, and his line will change. As a materialistic reborn, Cheng Ran does not believe in the saying in fate that people rescued today will encounter bad luck tomorrow, but it may not be a good thing to get in touch with Xie Houming.
Unlike everyone else, Cheng Ran is the only one who can see into the future at a glance. He can also roughly understand what the future will be like if his father steps on the cusp of the times...
If one day you become very big, you may be destroyed by an ant hole. Those dark histories may become your weak points that powerful opponents can seize and defeat.
So even though he can rely on Xie Houming this time, Cheng Ran still has to remind his father that it is okay to make friends with Old Xie, but the two sides should try not to be too deeply involved. This is for their own good, and also for Xie Houming's good.
Also out of vague worry about certain things, Cheng Ran called Jiang Hongshao several times after he achieved results.
Without exception, they are all turned off.
He lost contact with Jiang Hongshao.
Looking back carefully, there were many hints and signs that seemed to point to the fact that after they jointly participated in solving the 62nd case, Lao Jiang's life was also disturbed and changed...
For example... out of concern and worry for her safety, will her family let her leave the city
Just thinking about this possibility, Cheng Ran felt an inexplicable emotion...
This is extremely hard to accept.
Some things need to be waited for quietly, such as the melting of winter snow and the return of migratory birds to the forest.
The day after Xie Houming came to visit, the phone at home suddenly rang.
The phone at home has been ringing non-stop these past few days. After getting his test scores, Yu Xiao and other kids from wealthy families have been calling one after another, and relatives have been calling to invite him to dinner to celebrate... His ears are almost callused from the ringing, but it wasn't until Cheng Ran picked up the phone and heard the familiar voice of "Hello, I'm looking for Cheng Ran" that he narrowed his eyes slightly again.
"Old... Jiang?"
"Ah... Sorry, I left Shanhai for a while after the exam... I called your home once, but your mother answered the phone and said you were out..."
Listening to the explanation of the girl on the other end of the phone, Cheng Ran felt a little dazed. He received a lot of calls every day during this period. Maybe his mother treated the calls from Jiang Hongshao as ordinary calls from classmates.
"He went out for a trip right after the exam? This is really the life of a rich family..."
Cheng Ran's tone was very calm, but Jiang Hongshao on the other end of the phone had already heard a lot.
She said softly, "Silly boy... I was going to see my mother. She was in the provincial capital and had to leave after a few days of meetings. Of course, I had to go see her. But when I left, I left my phone at home."
If nothing unexpected happened, Jiang Hongshao would not easily talk about the situation at home... But at this moment, as if to avoid upsetting the person on the phone, she tried to speak in as much detail as possible.
"Remember to bring a charged phone next time. You don't want me to climb the loquat tree in front of your house, do you?"
"Aren't you afraid that my dad will beat you with a broom..." Jiang Hongshao smiled, "How are you doing recently?"
"Yeah, not bad."
"I feel very good. It seems that you did well in the test. How many points did you get..."
"You've been thinking about it... How about you?"
"I'm not thinking about it... I'm just asking casually. You go first, men first." The girl chuckled.
"Men will be given priority when they are enlisted in the army during war! Never mind... don't be scared," Cheng Ran said seriously into the microphone, "I'm 620!"
The girl's voice came without a pause, "This is Yu Xiao's score range, right? You're really good at saying it."
Cheng Ran was stunned for a moment. How could this girl be so smart
"Okay... 706 points."
"Yeah, that sounds like the truth," Jiang Hongshao said, "That's your normal level... After the high school entrance exam, you can't pretend to be such a big liar anymore, right?"
Thinking of how Jiang Hongshao was worried about his grades before the exam and wanted to sprint for him, Cheng Ran's heart softened and he asked, "Don't talk about me, what about you?"
"Hmmmm..." The sound of humming came from the phone.
Cheng Ran, "...!?"
"You... you wouldn't..." Cheng Ran felt that his expression must be like a tiger sniffing a rose, "You're not going to tell me, right?"
"You're smart. Kudos to you for guessing it right. Well, I have another call to make... Bye!"
"Hey, don't go too far..."
"beep!"
busy tone.
moment.
Cheng Ran was holding the microphone, still struggling over whether to smash it or not.
…
…
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Hongshao went downstairs in slippers, opened the suitcase, and continued to pack the things in the suitcase.
There were many things originally placed in this small red-door building in the government housing estate, but they have all been put away.
Li Jingping was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, flipping through a newspaper. At this moment, he folded the newspaper, and it fell down, revealing the figure of his busy daughter.
"How... Cheng Ran, that kid, his high school entrance exam results are out?" Li Jingping frowned. "If I remember correctly, when you said you wanted to tutor him, his score was less than 600, maybe 500..."
Li Jingping said slowly, "Although I understand and appreciate your idea of helping the backward students... but there should be a limit. What's wrong with this fool..." His expression was already full of malicious laughter, "...Have you helped him up?"
After putting the clothes in the box, Jiang Hongshao turned around and smiled with red lips and white teeth, "706! How can it be A Dou... It's clearly Zhao Zilong who went in and out of Changshan seven times."
Li Jingping was stunned for a moment, but remained calm, "Then why is his score usually less than 600?"
"He was probably sick during that exam!" Jiang Hongshao thought for a moment and added, "He was seriously ill."
"What a mess..." Li Jingping shook the newspaper again and unfolded it in front of him. After a moment, he shook his head, still feeling unsatisfied.
"If I had known... I wouldn't have told him to do well in the high school entrance exam!"
Jiang Hongshao glanced over and said, "Dad, please be aware of your identity."
"My greatest identity is your father..." Li Jingping stared, as if he was surrounded by a safe house, "Fortunately, that kid can only study in high school..."
