Yin Chang frowned and looked back at the tombstone with Yin Dong's name engraved on it. They walked all the way just now and saw the tombstones of several wealthy families. Others are husband and wife with the same cave, and the names of their children and grandchildren in the lower left corner A large area, only Yin Dong here, only the words "Zi Yin Chang Jingli", it looks lonely.
Thinking that he might not be Yin Dong's biological son, Yin Chang felt a little melancholy.
He wondered if he would find a chance to take Shao Junling to change his surname and add his name to it...
Just thinking about it, Yin Chang heard Shao Junling beside him say a word to the tombstone: "I will be good and stay with my brother."
Yin Chang was startled, and looked at Shao Junling wonderingly, Shao Junling also looked up at him, but soon he turned his head away, as if feeling embarrassed, turned and ran away.
"Hey, this kid!" Yang Na also heard what Shao Junling said, smiled gratifiedly, and said to Yin Chang, "Talk to your father, and I'll go and see him." After finishing speaking, she ran towards Shao Junling Chased in the direction of the past.
Yin Changwu was confused for a while, and took out a pack of cigarettes from the pocket of the black down jacket.
Yin Dong had a cigarette addiction in his early years, but he seldom smoked in front of him. If the addiction really came up, he would go outside the house or somewhere he could not see to smoke.
Once in Pasadena, Yin Chang remembered that it was also winter. Through the small window of his bedroom, he saw Yin Dong standing alone downstairs smoking, one cigarette after another... At that time, he wondered whether his father had any troubles Is it true that Dad is working too hard...
But as soon as Yin Dong returned to the house, the kind expression on his face returned, and he was completely different from the lonely man who was smoking alone outside the house just now.
…
Yin Chang withdrew his thoughts, opened the pack of cigarettes, took out one from the inside and lit it, then put the cigarette butt to his lips, and took a deep breath.
He waited until the cigarette butt was scarlet before he put the cigarette on the stone platform in front of Yin Dong's tombstone.
Slowly exhaling the thin smoke from his mouth, Yin Chang called out in a low voice: "Dad."
He stretched out his hand to caress the tombstone, and there were countless things in his heart that he wanted to say to Yin Dong.
He wanted to ask Yin Dong if he was really adopted, and if so, who were his biological parents
He wanted to ask about Shao Junling's background, and why Yin Dong had already decided to recognize this child, but still kept it from him;
He also wanted to talk about his experience during this period. Although he followed Yao Manhuai's advice and entered the entertainment industry, he was still vacillating sometimes, wondering if this was the right path.
He also wanted to talk about Shao Junling's performance in school—his inarticulateness, their conflicts and quarrels, and his relatively poor English ability...
But in the end, Yin Chang only said: "I will take good care of Jun Ling, don't worry."
The cigarette on the stone platform was almost exhausted.
He glanced at Yang Na and Shao Junling who were waiting for him below, put the remaining cigarettes and the cigarette case on the stone platform, and said in a low voice: "If Qingming is not free, I will bring him to see you at this time next year. "
***
After sweeping the tomb and returning home, Yin Chang received many New Year greeting calls, including one from Lawyer Wang.
When dealing with matters related to his father's company on weekdays, Lawyer Wang also occasionally contacted him, but this time, he mentioned another matter besides New Year's greetings.
"Your father has two other properties in Hong Kong City. I mentioned it to you at the time. Do you still have any impression?" Lawyer Wang asked on the phone.
"Well, are you going to do the property inheritance?" There were too many things in the past six months, and Yin Chang couldn't get away, so he didn't go through it.
"If you are busy recently, there is no hurry. There is no time limit for property inheritance. I want to tell you that among these two houses, there is an apartment in Qingcheng Bend Road that is rented out all year round. Yin Dong signed the house to I found an escrow company to take care of it, and the rent is stable. But recently the escrow contract is about to expire, they called me a year ago and asked me if I want to renew the contract, let me ask you what you think.”
"Oh, so, let's renew the contract, don't worry... What about another house?"
"There is another set that has been vacant all the time. Mr. Yin Dong should have his own arrangements. I don't know the details."
"… Okay, I know."
After being reminded by Lawyer Wang, Yin Chang also began to think back.
Before Yin Dong took him and Yang Na to Pasadena, he stayed in Harbor City for a few years. Although he didn't have much memory of those years, he remembered that they lived in a community with a lotus fountain Yang Na often took him downstairs to play, and every street lamp in the community looked like a lotus flower.
Could the vacant house be that set
They didn't go back there for more than ten years...
Yin Chang walked into the study room, found a pile of birth certificates left by Yin Dong and the documents given to him by Lawyer Wang from one of the locked cabinets left alone for his own use, and dug out the information on the two sets of Hong Kong City real estate .
… No. 12, Lotus Apartment, Qingcheng Bend Road, Guanchao District, Gangcheng…
Um? At the corner of Qingcheng is the Lotus Apartment
He looked at the address of another house, which was at No. 27 Ning Jing Road, Huandao District, two completely different addresses.
Yin Chang walked out with a puzzled expression on his face, and raised his voice and asked, "Yang Na, do you still remember what district I lived in Hong Kong City when I was young?"
"Huh? It's in the tide watching area..." Yang Na came out from the guest bedroom and asked, "Why do you ask this?"
"Father has two houses in Hong Kong City. Just now his lawyer called me to discuss the disposal of one of them." Yin Chang said casually.
"Which one?" Yang Na asked.
"It's the one in the tide watching area." Yin Chang glanced at Yang Na, accidentally caught a trace of unnaturalness on the other side, he paused, "That house was rented out..."
"Oh, it should be." Yang Na lowered her head and pretended to straighten her clothes, but her movements were a little stiff.
Yin Chang asked again: "Another house in Huandao District, do you know what's going on? Lawyer Wang said it seems to have been vacant all the time."
Yang Na's complexion changed suddenly: "Well, I heard your dad said it once... Yes, I remember it, that is, after we moved to Los Angeles, the furniture in the lotus apartment was moved to the Ningjing Road apartment It’s just used to pile up sundries, there’s nothing else, so it’s always been empty.”
Yin Chang: "Oh..."
Yang Na looked at him again: "What? Are you going to Hong Kong City to inherit these two houses?"
Yin Chang said: "Lawyer Wang said there is no rush. I will be busy in the next year. I will talk about it then."
Yang Na nodded straightly: "Hey, okay, let's deal with the matter here first, you don't care about the rent, do you?"
Yin Chang let out a "hmm" and returned to the room, but his heart was already suspicious.
When he first chatted with Yang Na, he didn't mention "Tranquility Road". If Yang Na only heard Yin Dong mention it once, how could she react so quickly
Moreover, this old nanny has always been frugal, saying "you don't care about the rent" is not like what someone with her character would say.
Furthermore, if you must rent out a house, why does it have to be Lotus Apartment? Wouldn't it be better to just rent out the empty set on Tranquility Road? Then there is no need to move the furniture there, unless there are...
Yin Chang's heart trembled, and he thought of his own misty life experience—could there be some things related to his mother there
That being the case, Yang Na must know something inside, right
As soon as he was impulsive, he wanted to ask Yang Na directly... But as soon as he lifted his footsteps, he thought of another point: If Yang Na knew the truth, why didn't she tell herself on purpose? Did Yin Dong tell her something
If that's the case, he probably won't be able to ask anything, because Yang Na is a person who keeps her promises very much.
That being the case, why doesn't he go and see for himself first
Thinking of this, Yin Chang took out his mobile phone and looked through the calendar and ticket information.
I have the latest flight ticket to Hong Kong City tonight, but if I go to have a look, I will be back in one day at the earliest...
But here comes the question again, how will he get to Hong Kong City? He would definitely be recognized on the street now, and it was quite inconvenient to move in private.
Besides, he has not officially inherited the two properties, even if he gets to the place, he cannot enter without a key.
Yin Chang forced himself to calm down, and sent a message to Lawyer Wang: "I want to go to Hong Kong City as soon as possible to go through the formalities of property inheritance."
Lawyer Wang: "Why are you so anxious all of a sudden?"
Yin Chang didn't intend to tell Lawyer Wang what he thought, but only said, "I only have time these few days."
Lawyer Wang: "Start preparations now, and the fastest time to pass is the ninth day of the lunar new year, because you have to wait for the relevant department personnel to go to work first, to apply for certification procedures, and then go to the housing management bureau there to complete the procedures..."
Yin Chang calculated, the ninth day of the junior high school is not bad, he is still on vacation.
He asked again: "Can property inheritance be transferred on the same day?"
Lawyer Wang: "Yes."
Yin Chang: "Okay, let's tentatively plan to go on the ninth day of the lunar new year."
Afterwards, Yin Chang cut to Lu Lingjuan's dialog again, and asked her, "Have you come back from the eighth day of the lunar new year?"
Because he was off for the Spring Festival, this girl had a rare holiday, and now she went back to her hometown for the New Year.
Lu Lingjuan: "I took annual leave, and the sixteenth day goes to work with you, what's the matter, what's the matter on the eighth day?"
Yin Chang: "Can you come back early? I need your help with something. I will pay you double daily salary during the vacation."
Lu Lingjuan: "Why are you in such a hurry?"
Yin Chang: "On the ninth day of the ninth day, I want you to accompany me to Hong Kong City."
Lu Lingjuan: "Working? Mr. Yao didn't inform me."
Yin Chang: "She doesn't know about private matters, but it's okay for her to know. I will tell her that it is dealing with some of my father's real estate, and Lawyer Wang will also go. If you are by my side, she will feel at ease. But this matter I don't want my family members to know, including my nanny and Shao Junling, so the travel information must be kept secret."
Lu Lingjuan: "Oh, that's no problem, it's my job to escort you ^_^ I'll go buy a ticket now."
Yin Chang: "I'll use the car when I get there."
Lu Lingjuan: "OK leave it to me."
After confirming the trip to Hong Kong City on the ninth day of the lunar new year, Yin Chang's anxiety was relieved a little.
But he didn't feel at ease for too long. The next day, when Yang Na chatted with him, she revealed that she wanted to go back to Hong Kong alone.
"I heard that one of my sisters has been seriously ill recently and is dying. She was kind to me before. I want to go and see her."
Yin Chang's heart tightened, and he thought to himself that he and Yang Na had lived in Pasadena for so many years, but Yang Na had never made a phone call with anyone. Why did a "sister" suddenly appear
The abnormality of the other party made Yin Chang think of yesterday's conversation. He thought to himself, Yang Na must have the key to the house on Tranquility Road, and wants to dispose of the things in that house in advance, right
"Are you going in the next few days?" Yin Chang said calmly, "But Jun Ling and I are on vacation these few days. If you leave, no one will cook for us... Can you wait a little later? Wait until Jun Ling starts school?"
He deliberately acted as if he was reluctant to let Yang Na go, but Yang Na was really soft-hearted, and she probably felt that she was not in a hurry these two days, so she nodded her head.
In the next few days, Yin Chang read books and slept peacefully at home. When he had free time, he even played with Shao Junling on models.
The three of them stayed at home, although nothing happened, but it was also warm.
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Si Wenqi's official Weibo officially released the BG series watch advertisement: "Low-key luxury is the concept upheld by BG design. Thank you Huaguo artist @阴昌 for allowing us to see the same temperament in him. I hope the new series of watches It will enable more young elites to show their true selves and shine alone."
Attached below are Yin Chang's endorsement photos taken in Switzerland.
In the photo, he was wearing a black sapphire waist suit, with one hand in front of him, loosely draped over the other arm, and a diamond-encrusted obsidian dial watch gleamed on his bony wrist .
Under the lens of BG's high-end fashion photographer, Yin Chang's natural exquisite facial features and innate elegance are vividly displayed.
After more than a month of silence, when this endorsement news came out, the entire Internet was once again in an uproar.
"This, this, this, I am a male god!? Isn't it so handsome!?"
"Oh my god, it's the first time I feel Yin Chang's ascetic beauty! I'm dead!"
"Si Wenqi's BG's endorsement! What kind of awesome resource is Yin Chang?"
Yin Chang's Weibo was forwarded routinely, expressing kindly that he was very happy to reach this cooperation. The subsequent marketing and promotion matters will be handled by BG and New Star Entertainment behind the scenes, so there is no need for him to worry about it.
On the eighth day of the eighth day, Yao Manhuai informed her that the English tutor's schedule had been confirmed, and that the family driver Lu Lingjuan had found for him was also available at any time.
Yin Chang arranged the family affairs inside and out, and said to Yang Na that night: "The company arranged for me to go on a business trip at noon tomorrow, and it will take about two days to come back."
Yang Na was stunned: "Didn't it be good to have a holiday until the fifteenth?"
"It was a temporary decision," he quietly looked at Yang Na's face, and said, "Go to Jincheng."
In Yin Chang's impression, this was the first time he lied to Yang Na, and his own heart was beating very hard.
Yang Na let out an "oh" and seemed not to be suspicious, but Shao Junling next to him stared at him closely and didn't move his eyes away after he finished speaking.

[Interlude]
Yin Chang: I'm going on a business trip.
Shao Junling: Lie! O︿O
Yin Chang: ... (This is the first time your brother has lied, please save face)
