Chapter 201: The Chen Family
Forty minutes later, a group of tall young people came to a Chaozhou restaurant. They all wore sunglasses. One of them was particularly tall. He stood out from the crowd. He was a head taller than everyone else. He was very eye-catching.
A group of people went directly into the box inside, and everyone took off their glasses. Dayao smiled bitterly and said: "That's the bad thing about people when they are famous. When they go out, they are like secret agents."
"As the saying goes, with every gain comes a loss. When you gain great fame and status, you are bound to lose a lot of freedom." Coach Li said something very philosophical.
"Yes, between gains and losses, it depends on how you choose. But I think most people will choose fame and wealth, freedom and other things are just clouds!" Zhou Tao said lightly.
If everyone thinks about it, the hustle and bustle of the world is all for fame; the hustle and bustle of the world is all for gain. Who dares to say that he is not at all for fame and fortune?
Regardless of fame or fortune, you still have to eat, so when the sumptuous dishes were served, a group of young men, who had been so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs, stopped being polite and started to eat one after another. Full stomachs are the last word
!
Since we had to train in the afternoon, no one drank, but the atmosphere was quite lively, especially those players who had never seen Dayao and Zhou Tao before, so they saluted them with drinks, and the routine was almost
When we finally paid the bill, the meal actually cost more than 10,000 yuan, but for a guy like Dayao who was so rich that only money was left, it was nothing.
Seeing him swiping his credit card to pay without blinking, the young team members looked envious, thinking that they would be like Brother Yao someday.
Zhou Tao naturally understood what they were thinking, patted Shi Fei on the shoulder and said: "Xiao Shi, work harder, your talent is also very good, try to be promoted to the first team as soon as possible. At that time, fame and money were not rolling in.
It’s the same with you guys, you need to train hard to get ahead!”
On this day, when Zhou Tao and Dayao came back from playing basketball, they saw Chen Qian sitting in the living room with a worried look, and asked strangely: "Honey, what are you so worried about?"
Chen Qian was about to speak but stopped. Zhou Tao stepped forward and hugged her and said, "What's going on?"
Chen Qian hesitated for a while and then said: "Husband, my mother called me just now and said that the family was in crisis and there was a problem with the investment business. Now it is completely paralyzed and the internal opinions are confused. There are various voices, but
Most of the blame is pointed at my father, the current clan leader, but my mother told me that it was some people in the clan who betrayed the family's interests, which led to this disaster."
"Then what should we do now? What is the opinion of the clan?" Zhou Tao asked with concern. His future father-in-law had a problem and he needed help.
Chen Qian was in tears: "They impeached my father and asked him to give up his position as patriarch, and at the same time asked him to take full responsibility. The position of patriarch doesn't matter, it would be easy if he didn't do it, but it was not my father's fault in the first place, but he has to bear the responsibility for his mistakes.
, this is my unbearable husband, can you help my father?"
Zhou Tao raised his eyebrows and said: "My father-in-law is in trouble, how can my son-in-law remain indifferent? Come on, let's leave immediately and let me see who dares to frame my father-in-law and act like a traitor to seek glory!"
Chen Qian's sadness turned into joy. She had a blind trust in Zhou Tao and firmly believed that he was omnipotent! With Zhou Tao taking action, this matter should be able to get good results. There is nothing he can't solve!
So the two of them packed their bags, said hello to the girls and Dayao, and drove towards the Chen family.
The Chen family lives in Hong Kong, a shopping paradise three hundred kilometers away from G City, the famous Pearl of the Orient. As for Chen Qian going to the mainland to study, it’s because her grandfather is here.
With Zhou Tao's status as a member of the National Security Bureau, there was no problem in passing the customs. When the staff saw the red book, they looked shocked, and then respectfully let them pass, which made the passengers behind them dumbfounded and didn't know.
What kind of god is sitting in the car?
Hong Kong, a prosperous international metropolis. From 1842 to 1997, Hong Kong was a British colony; on July 1, 1997, China exercised sovereignty over Hong Kong. It is located east of the Pearl River Estuary, adjacent to City C of Province G. Hong Kong is an internationally important city.
It is the financial, service and shipping center and is the third largest financial center in the world after New York and London. Hong Kong is the world's most competitive economic system and ranks first in the world in its economic freedom index. Hong Kong is a place where Chinese and Western cultures blend and is a global leader.
One of the safest, richest, prosperous and high-level cities in life, Hong Kong combines Chinese wisdom with the advantages of Western social systems. It is famous for its clean government, good public security, free economic system and perfect rule of law.
"Pearl of the Orient", "Gourmet Paradise" and "Shopping Paradise" etc.
The three parts of Hong Kong (Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories) originated from three unequal treaties in different periods. After the First Opium War in 1840, the British forced the Qing government to sign the Treaty of Nanjing (original name) in 1842.
"Treaty of Jiangning"), only Hong Kong Island was ceded. In 1856, the British and French forces launched the Second Opium War, forcing the Qing government to sign the "Treaty of Beijing" in 1860, ceding the Kowloon Peninsula, the area south of today's Boundary Street. In 1894, the Sino-Japanese War of 1894
After that, the British forced the Qing government to sign the "Special Treaty on the Expansion of Hong Kong Boundary Sites" in 1898, and forcibly leased the New Territories for 99 years. The lease of the New Territories ended on June 30, 1997, which expanded the area of Hong Kong tenfold.
So many
The Chen family is located in the outlying islands area in the west of the New Territories, outside the famous Lantau Island Scenic Area. In Hong Kong, where land is at a premium, they actually own a manor of nearly 10,000 square meters, which shows their strong economic strength.
When Zhou Tao and Chen Qian drove there, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. The security guard at the door stopped the car. After seeing Chen Qian, there was a trace of surprise on his face, but he still called out respectfully: "Hello, Miss."
!”
Although Chen Qian was not in a good mood, she still said to them kindly: "You're welcome, thank you for your hard work!"
The security guards felt her sincerity, and were moved but also a little regretful, thinking how could such a good girl suffer such a thing! God is unfair!
Chen Qian pointed at Zhou Tao, and the car drove to a three-story building. The two got out of the car, picked up their luggage and walked inside.
"Mom, I'm back!" Chen Qian shouted to a beautiful woman sitting in the living room.
The beautiful woman who was in a daze came back to her senses. When she saw Chen Qian and Zhou Tao, she forced a smile and said, "Xiao Qian, just come back! Who is this?"
Chen Qian took Zhou Tao's hand and said sweetly: "Mom, this is my boyfriend Zhou Tao. You should have heard of his name?"
"Zhou Tao? Is he that basketball star?" The beautiful woman was somewhat impressed.
Zhou Tao politely called Auntie and said with a smile: "Yes, I am the Zhou Tao who plays basketball. Sorry!"
The beautiful woman said oh, then she looked worried and said to Chen Qian: "Xiaoqian, come here, I have something to tell you."
Then he turned to Zhou Tao and said, "Xiao Zhou, please sit down for a while and I'll talk to Xiao Qian about something."
Zhou Tao nodded and said: "It's okay, you can chat."
Chen Qian nodded apologetically to Zhou Tao and said, "You can watch TV later if you're bored."
Zhou Tao waved his hand indifferently, and Chen Qian walked inside with the beautiful woman, wanting to hear what her mother had to say.
"Xiaoqian, why didn't you tell me earlier that you had a boyfriend? Now we are in big trouble!" The beautiful woman looked a little worried.
"What do you mean? Is there a problem?" Chen Qian looked confused.
"What a big problem!" The beautiful woman said with a sad look on her face: "This time your father was wronged, and most of the people in the clan opposed him being the clan leader again. However, your father was unwilling to be expelled after being wronged, so he fought hard according to the reasons."
She paused and then said: "But many people believe that it was your father's fault, so they don't support your father. And just now, the Liang family who chased you before took the opportunity to propose marriage to your father, saying that if
If you are betrothed to his son, they will help your father to secure his position as the patriarch."
Chen Qian was shocked, grabbed her mother's hand and asked, "Did Dad agree?"
"He's hesitating, but I think he's already tempted!" the beautiful woman sighed.
Chen Qian said anxiously: "No, I want to tell my father that I already have a boyfriend. I can't marry anyone else except him in this life!"
The beautiful woman had long seen that she was unworthy, and sighed inwardly, saying, "I'm afraid that your father will betroth you to the Liang family at all costs in order to clear his grievances, so I can't help you!"
The beautiful woman is also torn between her daughter's happiness and her husband's reputation. She can't give up either way, but what can she do?
Chen Qian had an idea and said, "I will bring grandpa back and ask him to speak for me. Dad can't go against grandpa's wishes. Besides, grandpa may have a way to solve the problem!"
The beautiful woman was also happy in her heart. Her father-in-law had a wide range of contacts, so he might be able to come up with a better solution. So she said, "Okay, tell your grandpa quickly. The matter is urgent and we can't delay it any longer!"
Zhou Tao sat outside for a while before he saw Chen Qian come out. When he saw an unhappy look on her face, he knew that things might not be good, so he asked: "Honey, is there any problem?"
Chen Qian didn't hide it from him, she told him what her mother said, and finally said: "Husband, I didn't expect that this kind of thing happened. What do you think we should do?"
When Zhou Tao heard this, he thought it was okay. Someone actually wanted to steal his wife. He was really brave!
He said angrily: "Honey, don't worry, even if grandpa can't solve the problem, I will protect you at all costs! In my opinion, this Liang family should be related to your father being framed, otherwise they wouldn't jump out so quickly
It seems that I need to investigate the Liang family."
"What a loud tone! Do you think you are Sherlock Holmes?" A cold voice came from outside the door.
