Chapter 665: Feelings are like porcelain
"This Cadillac is imported. There's only one in Binjiang. It's said that it was shipped directly from Hong Kong by merchants invited by Vice Governor Su."
"But this car is currently being driven by Vice Governor Su's son-in-law. I heard someone say it was a disguised gift from a Hong Kong businessman as a thank you for the farm."
"I don't know whether it's true or not, but a lot of people say so."
The driver Xiao Liu said.
When the leader heard this, his already frowned brows furrowed even tighter.
"Don't talk nonsense if you have no evidence!" the leader said in a deep voice.
"Yes."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Liu immediately responded.
I thought I had said something wrong.
But what the leader said next made Xiao Liu relax again.
"Do many people know about this?"
"many."
"Although this bus doesn't usually stop at the provincial party committee compound, our minibus drivers have all seen it and know about it."
Hearing this answer, the leader's eyes flickered.
After adjusting his sitting position, the leader looked at the luxury car in front of him and began to think in his mind.
Naturally, Lu Ye had no way of knowing the conversation in the car behind.
At this moment, he stepped on the accelerator again, and the speed of the car increased again. In just a few seconds, he disappeared from Xiao Liu's sight.
Arrived at the Madiel Hotel.
The dedicated line for international calls happened to be unused.
Lu Ye went straight over and picked up the phone.
Lu Ye quickly dialed Shu Wen's home phone number and waited anxiously for the call to be connected.
"Hey?"
Hearing someone answer the phone, Lu Ye couldn't wait to say, "Hello, I'm Lu Ye. Please call Miss Shu Wenshu for me. I have something important to discuss with her."
"I'm sorry, our young lady is not here. If you have anything to say, I can wait for her to come back and pass it on to you."
On the other end of the phone, the Shu family's servant said.
"Not here? Where did Shu Wen go? When will she be back?" Lu Ye asked anxiously.
"We don't know about this either. Do you need to leave a message for us to convey?" Without answering Lu Ye's question, the servant asked Lu Ye again.
"No, thank you. I'll call you back later." Lu Ye said, then hung up the phone.
Unable to find Shu Wen, Lu Ye could not get an accurate answer.
Pay the phone bill.
Lu Ye walked out of the hotel and stood on the street. He suddenly felt confused and had no idea where he should go.
After putting away the car keys, Lu Ye walked onto Central Avenue.
This long cultural street is as crowded as ever.
Lu Ye looked at the people passing by, many of whom were laughing and talking happily.
Lu Ye walked aimlessly towards the river.
A burst of music started, and the sad melody attracted many people to stop and watch.
Lu Ye looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman holding a microphone on the second-floor balcony, preparing to sing.
"My sister is looking for her brother and she is crying."
"I feel sad when I don't see my brother."
"My heart is troubled."
"Looking forward to seeing my loved ones."
"Flowers bloom and fall over the years."
"Ah...flowers bloom and fall over the years."
Lu Ye stopped and listened. The sad melody made his already troubled mood even more sad.
Lu Ye had heard this song before. It was the theme song from last year's super popular movie "Little Flower", called "Sister is Looking for Her Brother with Tears in Her Eyes".
At that time, Su Mengyao dragged him to the cinema and watched the movie three times in a row.
It can be said that I cry every time I watch it.
But now...
Lu Ye didn't know how sad Su Mengyao would be.
Before the song was finished, Lu Ye left quickly and walked all the way to the riverside.
Lu Ye sat directly on the steps, looking at the calm river surface. Gradually, his irritable and chaotic emotions became much calmer.
The wide Songjiang River seems to contain a magical power that can soothe people's hearts.
I don’t know how long it took, but the originally bright surface of the river had become dim.
Lu Ye looked down at the watch on his wrist.
Before he knew it, he had been sitting here for several hours.
However, Lu Ye's mood at this moment was much better.
Facing the surging river, Lu Ye figured out many things, and his originally chaotic heart became much calmer at this moment.
Back at the Madiel Hotel, Lu Ye prepared to make another call. Compared to his previous impatience to ask Shu Wen, Lu Ye seemed less anxious at this moment.
Xiangjiang, inside the Shu family villa.
Uncle De pushed Grandpa Shu and took a slow walk in the garden.
"How is the Binjiang matter going?" Mr. Shu asked softly.
"Mary called and said that she had revealed the news of the young lady's pregnancy to Lu Ye and his wife as planned. She was also present at the scene, along with the young lady's relatives."
“The effect is better than expected.”
"The girl surnamed Su was so angry that she ran away on the spot, and Lu Ye was even punched."
"However, Lu Ye's attitude is still unclear."
"In the afternoon, my family received a call from Lu Ye. I had already told them not to let Miss answer the phone."
"I guess Lu Ye will continue to fight later."
Uncle De reported everything to Grandpa Shu one by one.
The person who arranged for Mary to do all this was none other than Uncle De~!
"Now that this window paper has been broken, it all depends on what Lu Ye does next."
"That girl Su, I've seen she's a person with strong opinions. She might not be able to swallow such a big breath."
"No matter how well you cover up a cracked porcelain, it will never be restored to its original state. The only way out is to break it!"
Mr. Shu said softly.
Things become old as they age, and people become wise as they age.
Mr. Shu has lived to this age, and his views on many things have reached a very profound level.
It is precisely because of this life experience that the methods he uses, although seemingly ordinary, are more effective and deadly.
Jingle Bell......
As Uncle De expected, the Shu family's phone rang again.
The maid who was guarding the living room answered the phone directly.
"I'm Lu Ye. Is Miss Shu back? I'm looking for Miss Shu. Please ask her to answer the phone."
"The young lady just came back and is resting in her room. Please wait a moment, I will go and inform her."
After the maid finished speaking, she placed the microphone directly on the table and deliberately adjusted the position of the microphone so that it was facing the living room.
Behind the sofa, another maid who had been waiting for a long time deliberately started talking.
"Is the chicken soup for the young lady ready? She's very weak and pregnant. The doctor said she needs to take good care of herself."
"It's already stewed."
"Miss, you have such a miserable life. You've been without a mother since you were a child, and now you've met such a cruel man. I really feel sorry for you!"
"Who says it's not true? Last time the young lady fainted, she stayed in the hospital for so long, luckily nothing happened."
······
Every word the two maids said came through the microphone and entered Lu Ye's ears without missing a word.
Lu Ye no longer needed to ask Shu Wen. It was obvious that the pregnancy was true.
It’s just that Shu Wen has been hiding it from him.
