The streets shrouded in darkness were filled with people. The top said,...
"Yu Yan, do you blame me for letting you leave that private room?" Tang Tianlong said apologetically after coming out of the Wangfu Hotel.
Tang Yuyan smiled bitterly and remained silent. There must be complaints in her heart, but she just doesn't want to come out.
Tang Tianlong sighed, "You know the rules of our Tang family. They have been like this for hundreds of years, from generation to generation, otherwise our Tang family would not have passed down the rules to this day. Whatever we do, we must ensure that we The interests of the family should stay away from right and wrong. We cannot offend Mu Jianfeng and Ye Kun."
"But Shentu Tianyin dared." Tang Yuyan couldn't get rid of Shentu Tianyin's courage to intervene in right and wrong. She could fight bravely on the battlefield without fear of death, but she lacked such courage.
"You can't compare with her. The Shentu family only has a history of thirty years since the reform and opening up. It is a wealthy family with no background. You are a woman from our Tang family, so you are different from her."
"A woman from the Tang family?" Tang Yuyan's voice contained a hint of bitterness, "So what if I'm a woman from the Tang family? I don't dare to offend Mu Jianfeng, I don't dare to offend Ye Kun, and I don't even dare to offend Shen Tu Tianyin. If I can’t fight, what do I need this kind of aura for?”
Tang Tianlong said: "Our Tang family can stand for hundreds of years, but the Shentu family can't survive for less than a hundred years. Didn't you notice? Mu Jianfeng responded by attacking Wanxiang Group's stocks and asset inventory. There is fear in Shentu Tianyin's eyes. Xia Lei is determined not to let Shentu Tianyin get involved, actually to protect her. Can such a family last long?"
"Forget it, I don't want to hear this."
"I want it even if you don't want to hear it." Tang Tianlong continued his teaching, "I know you like Xia Lei. Your mother, me, and your grandfather actually like him quite a lot. If you can be together, it would be great. Good job. However, if this threatens the interests of our Tang family, then we have no choice but to give up. If you can't compete with Shentu Tianyin, then don't compete and stay away from Xia Lei."
Tang Yuyan bit her cherry lips lightly, unwilling to give in. If you like someone, how can you just let him go? What's more, Xia Lei saved her life. She will never forget what she and Xia Lei experienced in Afghanistan.
"I know it's hard to convince you." Tang Tianlong said: "Then let me tell you this. After seeing Xia Lei's performance in the hotel today, I think he is actually a time bomb that may detonate at any time. . He himself will be shattered to pieces, and the people around him will also be hurt. You are my daughter, of course I hope you can get your happiness, but I don’t want to see you get hurt."
"We have investigated and found nothing. Why did he become a time bomb? Forget it, I don't want to talk to you about this anymore. You go back first, I want to go alone." Tang Yuyan didn't want to talk to you anymore. The conversation continued and he left alone.
Tang Tianlong sighed and looked at his daughter who was alone and did not move for a long time.
Under the same night sky, there is a different scene in a single-family villa in a high-end area.
"Okay, okay, it's time to start dinner." Xia Lei walked out of the kitchen, carrying a tray with three bowls of Yangchun noodles on it.
Shentu Tianyin raised his lips and said dissatisfiedly: "Is this the dinner you cooked for us? I still want to have a big meal, just three bowls of noodles."
Xia Lei said with a smile: "Look at the time, it's almost ten now. If we cook a big meal, when will we have dinner? I'm not afraid of being hungry, but Uncle Ren's body can't be hungry. .”
Shen Turen smiled and said: "You see, this is how Lei Zi talks. Let's not go to the dining room to eat. Let's eat in the living room and watch TV."
"Dad, you know how to help him." Shentu Tianyin pretended to be unhappy, but she couldn't pretend to be different. When Xia Lei handed a bowl of steaming Yangchun noodles to her hand, she couldn't help but laugh. .
The three of them were eating noodles and watching TV in the living room.
Shen Turen seemed to have deliberately chosen the Phoenix Military Channel. A military program was being played on the TV. The male host in camouflage uniform had a loud voice and looked very imposing.
After introducing an advanced US military destroyer, the screen suddenly switched to a sniper rifle. When he saw the sniper rifle, Xia Lei recognized it at a glance. It was the L500 sniper rifle that he and Anina developed together.
"Tianyin, look, this is the gun Lei Zi is studying, the L500 sniper rifle." Shen Turen said excitedly.
"Is this the gun that Lei Zi is studying? I've never seen it before, Dad, how do you know it?" Shentu Tianyin looked curious.
Shen Turen said: "Don't you know yet? In the past few days, Xia Lei and his L500 sniper rifle have been talked about everywhere in newspapers, TV news, and on the Internet. I have read it several times. Can I not recognize it?"
Shentu Tianyin smiled, "The media is so hyped and the attention is so high. Mu Jianfeng and Ye Kun actually want to suppress Lei Zi in this state. It is really against the will of heaven!"
Xia Lei, however, seemed not to have heard the conversation between Shen Tu Ren and Shen Tu Tianyin. It was the first time for him to read the news about him, and he seemed very focused.
On the TV, the host pointed a command stick at an L500 on the screen and said in a distinctive accent: "This is the new generation sniper rifle independently researched and manufactured by our country, the L500. It first appeared in At the Moscow International Exhibition and Convention Center, our country’s youngest military scientist, Mr. Xia Lei, used it to defeat the Barrett company that had dominated the sniper rifle world for decades... "
The scene on the TV suddenly switched to the rooftop of the Moscow International Exhibition and Convention Center. A tall, handsome Chinese young man stood with a gun and an extraordinary aura. At that moment, he gave people an invincible aura. He was so handsome that he had no friends. .
Shentu Tianyin quietly watched Xia Lei on the TV. At this moment, she was also deeply attracted.
After the military program ended, Xia Lei suddenly laughed, "When did I become a military scientist? People will definitely laugh at me if I wear this hat on my head."
"Who dares to laugh at you?" Shentu Tianyin said: "Just because of the sniper rifle you researched, you deserve this title. What achievements have those quasi-scientists with subsidies and scientific research funds made? "
Shen Turen also said: "Yes, Lei Zi, please don't belittle yourself." Then he smiled and said, "In my opinion, you are not only a military scientist, but also a miracle doctor. I, a person who is almost dead, have been beaten by you. It’s cured, who dares to say that you are not a miracle doctor?”
Xia Lei was a little embarrassed by the praise, "Eat noodles, eat noodles."
After eating the noodles, Xia Lei gave Shen Turen a massage. After this period of recuperation and exercise, Shen Turen can now walk slowly without the need for crutches. He couldn't even imagine such a level of recovery at the beginning.
Coming out of Shen Tu Ren's room, Shen Tu Tianyin called Xia Lei into her study.
"Lei, please don't go to the bank for a loan. Five billion. The interest alone is a heavy burden." Shentu Tianyin said straight to the point: "I'll give you five billion. My words are true. As long as you are tall, I will ask the finance department to raise money for you right away."
Five billion in cash was a huge sum of money. Even if Shentu Tianyin wanted to use it, it would take some time to prepare.
To be honest, Xia Lei was a little moved, but after thinking about it, he still shook his head, "Tianyin, it's not that I don't want to accept your help, but I don't want you to get involved. You saw what happened at the Wangfu Hotel before. You should also know what the situation is. What I think is that you are a businessman, and Mu Jianfeng and Ye Kun are both officials. The poor will not fight with the rich, and the rich will not fight with officials. This old saying is very accurate even now. More Soon, Mu Jianfeng and Ye Kun represent our country's military industry, and there are countless people behind them, how many can you fight with?"
"But hasn't that Ling Hao solved the problem? That Ling Hao represents a big shot. Mu Jianfeng and Ye Kun are obviously suppressed. If I give you money, do they still dare to interfere?"
Xia Lei smiled bitterly, "If you really think it's over, then you are too naive. They are not going to give up. They are such a huge interest group. They will not give up. I know this better than anyone else. . In short, don’t get involved in this matter. I can use Ling Hao’s connections to get a low-interest loan.”
Shentu Tianyin sighed, "You always refuse to accept the help I give you. My father and I owe you a life-saving grace. Also, if it weren't for you, Wanxiang Group would probably be my second uncle's family. It's human. You, our family owes you so much, how can we pay you back?"
"How did you..." Xia Lei didn't know what to do. He had never been the kind of person to repay kindness.
Shentu Tianyin, however, looked at Xia Lei quietly, and after a while he said something that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, "You won't let me commit myself to you, will you?"
Xia Lei was stunned on the spot and didn't know how to answer the question.
A woman's mind is the most complicated thing in the world. Sometimes she clearly doesn't want it, but she still wants it in her heart. Sometimes I want it, but in my heart I don’t want it. Shentu Tianyin, you can't let me commit myself to you, right? This seems like a rhetorical question, and it means that you don't want it, but who knows if she wants it in her heart
Xia Lei must have wanted to be the lover of his dreams, but how could such a thing be decided like this? He was not mentally prepared yet.
A trace of sadness flashed across Shentu Tianyin's eyes, but a smile appeared on her gorgeous face, "I'm joking with you, don't take it seriously."
Xia Lei also smiled, "No, no."
But he forgot that Shentu Tianyin was a woman who never joked.
"Then it's up to you, but you must come to me when you need my help. If you don't come to me, I will be angry with you."
"Yes, I will."
"You can stay in the guest room tonight. I'll drive you back to Thunder Horse Military Factory tomorrow morning."
"Well, good night." For some reason, Xia Lei felt a little disappointed.
