Ran Zai couldn't believe his eyes at all. This cute and sparkling girl in front of him was actually Locke's biological daughter. He blinked and the appearance of Locke appeared in his mind, with a broad forehead, a big belly, and two slender lips.
Mustache, although he is about 1.7 meters tall, he looks a bit short and fat because of his figure.
But when he saw the woman named Yu Wanrou, Ran Zai laughed.
Fortunately, it is the genetic mother.
"Uncle Jean, you haven't been to our house for a long time. Can you come over one day and help me with my homework?"
"Xiaoyun, didn't your father not allow you to join the business department?"
Luo Ziyun immediately snorted and stamped her feet.
"No one will listen to what that fat man says. Moreover, he is a fat man who often doesn't go home and has never attended parent-teacher conferences with his daughter. He is so angry."
Yu Wanrou also echoed.
"Well, principal, please give that fat man a message. If he doesn't come home, he will be allowed to sleep on the floor when he comes back."
"That's really a disaster!"
Gene smiled, and Luo Ziyun sat on the chair, looking somewhat unhappily at the people passing by from time to time, many of whom were families attending banquets together.
"Xiaoyun, it's okay. There will still be enough time when he retires."
"Everyone was getting married at that time. This was the case from childhood to adulthood. My mother and I were very tired."
Gene sat aside and smiled helplessly.
"By the way, principal, aren't you going to attend Angus's party tonight?"
Gene shook his head.
"Sorry, I'm waiting for a lady!"
After chatting with the mother and daughter for a while, they left. Ran Zai looked at the mother and daughter in the distance.
"If I were a woman, I wouldn't be able to bear it if my husband slept at work every day."
"Shut up."
Ran Zai squatted next to the bench, watching the people passing by cast slightly surprised glances here from time to time, but most of them were directed at Jean, who did not shy away from them and showed them with a smile.
"Are you sure she will come?"
"One hundred percent!"
Jean said, smiled, and looked into the distance.
"That's just the way Michelle is. There's nothing to be picky about in terms of her work attitude, but it's just not going to work like this!"
Ran Zai continued to open the light and shadow panel and started playing the game. The number of pedestrians on the street had gradually become less and less. Many people were rushing to Angus' house. Ran Zai clearly knew what tonight's banquet meant.
This is an important dinner for businessmen to reach a consensus in the short term, and no one wants to miss this opportunity.
...
dong dong dong
"Come in."
Michelle stared at the door of the room. Charles opened the door and walked in, looking at Michelle with a serious expression.
"Why are you still working after you go home?"
Michelle quickly turned off the light and shadow screen, and Charles sat over, glanced at the cactus on the table, and smiled helplessly.
"I still have it, after so many years."
Michelle nodded.
"Father, if you are here for black market transactions, I'm sorry, I can't do anything and I can't do it."
Michelle said clearly, and Charles nodded with emotion. He had known it for a long time, but now that these words came out of his daughter's mouth, it was a bit heartbreaking. He looked at Michelle blankly.
"Perhaps this time is a reminder to us that the company will temporarily stop operations and start internal rectification!"
Charles said sadly. At this time, outside the room, Mitchell looked at the second brother and third sister with heavy expressions.
Finally, Miluer couldn't bear it anymore and turned around directly and entered the room.
"Sister, it is true that we were wrong. We participated in the black market transaction. But, eldest sister, am I your biological sister? Don't you even have the slightest affection?"
Milu became a little excited, Miguel and Mitchell walked in and held her.
"Sorry!"
Michelle's voice softened a little, but her eyes did not avoid her sister at all. She stood up and walked over slowly, and Michelle was already crying.
"Sister, I know that what you told us most when we were young was not to make mistakes, but I don't want to. The situation at home has been getting worse over the years. Please help me, eldest sister!"
Milu held Michelle's hand, Miguel lowered his head, and Charles looked at the brightly lit Angus' house opposite the window. There were people on the entire lawn, and he smiled bitterly.
"Forget it, just go back, Michelle."
Charles stood up, looked at the crying Michelle, walked over and pulled her away from Michelle.
"Okay, look at what you look like. Why are you crying for such a big person?"
Michelle hesitated, her eyes passed through the two brothers in front of her, and she wanted to leave, but her feet seemed to have taken root and she could not take even half a step.
"I'm sorry, eldest sister, you have told us many times, but I didn't listen."
As Miguel said, Mitchell walked over and patted Michelle on the back.
"Sister, do you want to take a walk together?"
After a while, Mitchell and Michelle walked on the path of the plantation. The fields were lit with lights used to add light to the plants at night. The color was warm and yellow, and Michelle remained silent.
"Forget it, I won't tell you too much, eldest sister. Remember to take me shopping tomorrow. You might be bleeding heavily."
A smile appeared on Michelle's face and she stopped.
"Sorry!"
After Michelle finished speaking, she turned around. Michelle stared blankly at Michelle who was walking quickly.
"Sister!"
Mitchell shouted, Michelle stopped, and he ran up quickly.
"Really...is there really nothing we can do?"
Michelle didn't nod, and stood motionless, with a pair of hands behind her pressing her shoulders.
"Is there really nothing you can do? Sister!"
Mitchell asked again.
Michelle hesitated for a while, then raised her head and smiled slightly.
"I'm sorry! I have to be a role model for all members of the executive branch. I once longed to step into the hall of Congress, but when I actually stepped in, things were much more complicated than I thought.
, I am very tired, very tired every day, but I have to stand there. If someone is lost in the dark night, I can stand there and they will see it. Help me and my brothers and sisters and my father to say
Sorry!"
Michelle took a step forward, but Mitchell still held on to the corner of her clothes. Michelle picked up her long hair, tied it with a hair tie, and smiled slightly.
"Sister! Keep working hard!"
Mitchell let go of his hand and couldn't hold back his tears for a while. He raised his head and kept sniffing. When he was a child, Michelle often fell asleep with him on her back, and the three people in the family didn't continue talking. Maybe everyone can
Understand why the eldest sister is standing there.
On the First Avenue that had just been cleaned up by the servants of various families, many withered leaves could still be seen spinning in the breeze. Michelle walked quickly, and she planned to answer the general affairs department.
Go, everything behind you is getting further and further away.
A wave of sadness kept rising from the bottom of her heart. She walked straight, not paying any attention to the eyes of the guests of the Angus family opposite. Her eyes moved towards the Congress Hall little by little, where the light was always bright.
Michelle clenched her fists and quickened her pace. Documents passed through her mind one by one. There were many points in them that had to be solved tonight.
What Jean said in the office this evening came up from time to time, and Locke's words were the same. The words "successor" kept hurting Michelle's heart.
Michelle knew very well that she had to be more strict, otherwise she would not be qualified to be Locke's successor.
Michelle walked faster and faster, and thousands of thoughts were intertwined in her heart. She couldn't remember how long ago she ran on this avenue every day, going to and from school. Red particles appeared around Michelle.
